CASEY'S GENERAL STORES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO (UNAUDITED) CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements include the
accounts and transactions of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.
2. The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these
interim consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with
the Company's most recent audited financial statements and notes thereto. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of October 31,
1999, and the results of operations for the six and three months ended October
31, 1999 and 1998, and changes in cash flows for the six months ended October
31, 1999 and 1998.
3. The Company's financial condition and results of operations are affected
by a variety of factors and business influences, certain of which are described
in the Cautionary Statement Relating to Forward-Looking Statements filed as
Exhibit 99 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended
January 31, 1997. These interim consolidated condensed financial statements
should be read in conjunction with that Cautionary Statement.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Dollars in Thousands)
Casey's derives its revenue from the retail sale of food (including freshly
prepared foods such as pizza, donuts and sandwiches), beverages and non-food
products such as health and beauty aids, tobacco products, automotive products
and gasoline by Company stores and from the wholesale sale of certain grocery
and general merchandise items and gasoline to franchised stores. The Company
also generates revenues from continuing monthly royalties based on sales by
franchised stores, sign and facade rental fees and the provision of certain
maintenance, transportation and construction services to the Company's
franchisees. A typical store is generally not profitable for its first year of
operation due to start-up costs and will usually attain representative levels of
sales and profits during its second or third year of operation.
Due to the nature of the Company's business, most sales are for cash, and
cash provided by operations is the Company's primary source of liquidity. The
Company finances its inventory purchases primarily from normal trade credit
aided by the relatively rapid turnover of inventory. This turnover allows the
Company to conduct its operations without large amounts of cash and working
capital. As of October 31, 1999, the Company's ratio of current assets to
current liabilities was .81 to 1. The ratio at October 31, 1998 and April 30,
1999, was .56 to 1 and .84 to 1, respectively. Management believes that the
Company's current bank lines of credit, together with cash flow from
operations, will be sufficient to satisfy the working capital needs of
its business.
Net cash provided by operations increased $10,432 (22.4%) in the six months
ended October 31, 1999 from the comparable period in the prior year, primarily
as a result of a large increase in accounts payable. Cash flows from investing
in the six months ended October 31, 1999 remained fairly constant. Cash flows
from financing decreased, primarily as a result of a smaller increase in
short-term debt. Cash used in investing activities is expected to increase
as a result of the anticipated growth in capital expenditures.
Capital expenditures represent the single largest use of Company funds.
Management believes that by reinvesting in Company stores, the Company will be
better able to respond to competitive challenges and increase operating
efficiencies. During the first six months of fiscal 2000, the Company expended
$54,332 for property and
<PAGE>
equipment, primarily for the construction and remodeling of Company stores,
compared to $55,368 for the comparable period in the prior year. The Company
anticipates expending approximately $105,000 in fiscal 2000 for construction and
remodeling of Company stores, primarily from funds generated by operations,
existing cash and short- term investments.
As of October 31, 1999, the Company had long-term debt of $119,731,
consisting of $12,750 in principal amount of 7.70% Senior Notes, $30,000 in
principal amount of 7.38% Senior Notes, $14,400 in principal amount of 6.55%
Senior Notes, $50,000 in principal amount of Senior Notes, Series A through
Series F, with interest rates ranging from 6.18% to 7.23%, $8,143 of mortgage
notes payable, and $4,438 of capital lease obligations.
Interest on the 7.70% Senior Notes is payable on the 15th day of each month
at the rate of 7.70% per annum. Principal of the 7.70% Senior Notes matures in
forty quarterly installments beginning March 15, 1995. The Company may prepay
the 7.70% Senior Notes in whole or in part at any time in an amount of not less
than $1,000 or integral multiples of $100 in excess thereof at a redemption
price calculated in accordance with the Note Agreement dated as of February 1,
1993 between the Company and the purchasers of the 7.70% Senior Notes.
Interest on the 7.38% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on the 28th day
of June and December in each year, commencing June 28, 1996, and at maturity, at
the rate of 7.38% per annum. The 7.38% Senior Notes mature on December 28, 2020,
with prepayments of principal commencing December 28, 2010 and ending June 28,
2020, inclusive, with the remaining principal payable at maturity on December
28, 2020. The Company may prepay the 7.38% Senior Notes in whole or in part at
any time in an amount not less than $1,000 or integral multiples of $100 in
excess thereof at a redemption price calculated in accordance with the Note
Agreement dated as of December 1, 1995 between the Company and Principal Mutual
Life Insurance Company, as the purchaser of the 7.38% Senior Notes.
Interest on the 6.55% Senior Notes is payable quarterly on the 18th day of
March, June, September and December of each year, commencing March 18, 1998, and
at maturity, at the rate of 6.55% per annum. Principal of the 6.55% Senior Notes
matures in five annual installments commencing December 18, 1999. The Company
may prepay the 6.55% Senior Notes in whole or in part at any time in an amount
of not less than $1,000 or integral multiples of $100 in excess thereof at a
redemption price calculated in accordance with the Note Agreement dated as of
December 1, 1997 between the Company and the Purchasers of the 6.55% Senior
Notes.
<PAGE>
Interest on the 6.18% to 7.23% Senior Notes, Series A through Series F, is
payable on the 23rd day of each April and October. Principal of the 6.18% to
7.23% Senior Notes, Series A through Series F, matures in various installments
beginning April 23, 2004. The Company may prepay the 6.18% to 7.23% Senior
Notes, Series A through Series F, in whole or in part at any time in an amount
of not less than $1,000 or integral multiples of $100 in excess thereof at a
redemption price calculated in accordance with the Note Agreement dated as of
April 15, 1999 between the Company and the purchasers of the 6.18% to 7.23%
Senior Notes, Series A through Series F.
To date, the Company has funded capital expenditures primarily from the
proceeds of the sale of Common Stock, issuance of the 6-1/4% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures (which were converted into shares of Common Stock in
1994), the Senior Notes, a mortgage note, and through funds generated from
operations. Future capital needs required to finance operations, improvements
and the anticipated growth in the number of Company stores are expected to be
met from cash generated by operations, existing cash, investments and additional
long-term debt or other securities as circumstances may dictate, and are not
expected to adversely affect liquidity.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency and several states,
including Iowa, have established requirements for owners and operators of
underground gasoline storage tanks (USTs) with regard to (i) maintenance of leak
detection, corrosion protection and overfill/spill protection systems; (ii)
upgrade of existing tanks; (iii) actions required in the event of a detected
leak; (iv) prevention of leakage through tank closings; and (v) required
gasoline inventory recordkeeping. Since 1984, new Company stores have been
equipped with non-corroding fiberglass USTs, including many with double- wall
construction, over-fill protection and electronic tank monitoring, and the
Company has an active inspection and renovation program with respect to its
older USTs. The Company currently has 2,214 USTs, of which 1,904 are fiberglass
and 310 are steel. Management of the Company currently believes that
substantially all capital expenditures for electronic monitoring, cathodic
protection and overfill/spill protection to comply with the existing UST
regulations has been completed. Additional regulations, or amendments to the
existing UST regulations, could result in future expenditures.
Several of the states in which the Company does business have trust fund
programs with provisions for sharing or reimbursing corrective action or
remediation costs incurred by UST owners, including the Company. In each of the
years ended April 30, 1999 and 1998, the Company spent approximately $516 and
$502, respectively, for
<PAGE>
assessments and remediation. During the six months ended October 31, 1999, the
Company expended approximately $232 for such purposes. Substantially all of
these expenditures have been submitted for reimbursement from state-sponsored
trust fund programs and as of October 31, 1999, approximately $4,600 has been
received from such programs since their inception. Such amounts are typically
subject to statutory provisions requiring repayment of the reimbursed funds for
noncompliance with upgrade provisions or other applicable laws. The Company has
accrued a liability at October 31, 1999 of approximately $500 for estimated
expenses related to anticipated corrective actions or remediation efforts,
including relevant legal and consulting costs. Management believes the Company
has no material joint and several environmental liability with other parties.
THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE
MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1998 (DOLLARS AND AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2000 increased by $90,382 (28%)
over the comparable period in fiscal 1999. Retail gasoline sales increased by
$86,446 (28.7%) as the number of gallons sold increased by 21,417 (12.2%) while
the average retail price per gallon increased 19.1%. During this same period,
retail sales of grocery and general merchandise increased by $29,123 (22.3%) due
to the addition of 82 new Company Stores and a greater number of stores in
operation for at least three years.
Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 79.4% for the second
quarter of fiscal 2000, compared to 76.1% for the comparable period in the prior
year. The gross profit margins on retail gasoline sales decreased (8.6%) during
the second quarter of fiscal 2000 from the second quarter of the prior year
(11.5%) due to the increase in wholesale gasoline costs during the quarter. The
gross profit margin per gallon also decreased (to $.0992) in the second quarter
of fiscal 2000 from the comparable period in the prior year ($.1118). The gross
profits on retail sales of grocery and general merchandise also decreased (to
38.5%) from the comparable period in the prior year (41.3%), primarily due to
the increase in the wholesale cigarette costs and the more competitive retail
environment for cigarette sales.
Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 13.3% for the second
quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to 14.9% for the comparable period in the prior
year. The decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was caused
by an increase in the average retail price per gallon of gasoline sold (19.1%).
Net income increased by $35 (0.3%). The increase in net income was
attributable
<PAGE>
primarily to the increase in retail sales of grocery and general merchandise, an
increase in the number of gallons of gasoline sold and an increased number of
stores in operation for at least three years. However, these increases were
substantially offset by the decreases in gross profit margins.
SIX MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO SIX
MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1998 (DOLLARS AND AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2000 increased by $145,130
(22.2%) over the comparable period in fiscal 1999. Retail gasoline sales
increased by $85,384 (24.4%) as the number of gallons sold increased by 40,954
(11.6%) and the average retail price per gallon increased 11.5%. During this
same period, retail sales of grocery and general merchandise increased by
$52,262 (19.8%) due to the addition of 82 new Company stores and a greater
number of stores in operation for at least three years.
Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was 78.8% for the first six
months of fiscal 2000 compared to 76.9% for the comparable period in the prior
year. This result occurred because the gross profit margins on retail gasoline
sales decreased (8.9%) during the first six months of fiscal 2000 from the
comparable period in the prior year (10.8%) due to the increase in wholesale
gasoline costs during the period. The gross profit margin per gallon also
decreased in the first six months of fiscal 2000 (to $.0989) from the comparable
period in the prior year ($.1072). The gross profits on retail sales of grocery
and general merchandise also decreased (to 38.8%) from the comparable period in
the prior year (40.6%), primarily due to the increase in the wholesale
cigarette costs and the more competitive retail environment for cigarette sales.
Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 13.3% for the first
six months of fiscal 2000 compared to 14.3% during the comparable period in the
prior year. The decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was
caused primarily by an increase in the average retail price per gallon of
gasoline sold (11.5%).
Net income increased by $2,189 (8.7%). The increase in net income was
attributable primarily to the increase in retail sales of grocery and general
merchandise, an increase in the number of gallons of gasoline sold, and an
increased number of stores in operation at least three years. However, these
increases were partially offset by the decreases in gross profit margins.
YEAR 2000
<PAGE>
Management has substantially completed its "Year 2000" efforts to prepare
the Company's information technology systems (including hardware, software and
application programs) for year 2000 compliance. The Company expects to see
little direct impact on its operations given the nature of the business and the
Company's business relationships, the corrective steps taken to date and the
contingency plans put in place throughout 1999. All necessary expenditures,
which are not expected to be material (including internal staff and consulting
costs), will be funded through operating cash flow. The Company also is
continuing to analyze and work cooperatively with third parties having systems
upon which the Company must rely, and developing contingency plans with respect
thereto, but cannot give any assurances that the systems of such other parties
will be year 2000 compliant on a timely basis. Systems operated by others which
the Company would use and/or rely upon include those of banking institutions and
telephone companies, as well as vendor and franchisee workstations and product
ordering systems. The Company's business and financial condition and/or results
of operations could be materially adversely affected by the failure of its
systems and applications or those operated by such other third parties.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
The foregoing Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations contains various "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking
statements represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future
events, including (i) any statements regarding future sales and gross profit
percentages, (ii) any statements regarding the continuation of historical trends
and (iii) any statements regarding the sufficiency of the Company's cash
balances and cash generated from operations and financing activities for the
Company's future liquidity and capital resource needs. The Company cautions that
these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements, including, without limitations, the factors described in the
Cautionary Statement Relating to Forward-Looking Statements included as Exhibit
99 to the Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 1997.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
<PAGE>
The Company from time to time is a party to legal proceedings arising from
the conduct of its business operations, including proceedings relating to
personal injury and employment claims, environmental remediation or
contamination, disputes under franchise agreements and claims by state and
federal regulatory authorities relating to the sale of products pursuant to
state or federal licenses or permits. Management does not believe that the
potential liability of the Company with respect to such other proceedings
pending as of the date of this Form 10-Q is material in the aggregate.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY
