MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
The Company's first quarter sales increased $7,920,000, a 20.1% increase to
$47,237,000 in 1995 compared to $39,317,000 for the first quarter 1994. All
sales channels recognized increases with Service Centers realizing the largest
increase of $3,200,000 for the quarter. The Company's Service Center sales on a
comparative basis of 103 stores was up 17.3% for the first quarter 1995
compared to 1994. In addition, both consumable and hard good products sales
increased in the first quarter 1995 over 1994.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales declined slightly from 33.2% for the
first quarter 1994 compared to 32.9% in 1995. The Company's consumable
products margins declined primarily due to the increasing costs of fertilizer
products and due to the competitive marketplace, particularly as it relates to
pre-emergent turf protection products. The Company's hard goods products
margin increased due primarily to price increases which offset a portion of the
consumable goods gross margin decline.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 34.1% of sales for
the first quarter 1995 compared to 33.8% in 1994. The increase was
$2,798,000, a 21% increase in the first quarter 1995 over 1994 which compares
to a sales increase of 20.1%. $1,582,000 of the increase is due to the newly
opened Service Centers during the first quarter 1995 compared to 1994. The
Company opened 21 new Service Centers in the first quarter of 1995 and had 159
in operation as of March 31, 1995 compared to 121 stores open as of March 31,
1994. In addition, sales expenses increased with the addition of six new
Stores-On-Wheels and six Regional Agronomists which were added in the first
quarter of 1995. Distribution, delivery, marketing and general administrative
expenses all increased at a percent less than the Company's sales growth.
The Company's interest expense increased to $628,000 in the first quarter 1995
compared to $483,000 in 1994. This increase is due to market rate increases in
1995 compared to 1994. Other deductions - net, consist primarily of customer
finance charges which totaled $341,000 in the first quarter 1995 compared to
$362,000 in 1994.
The Company's effective tax rate for both the first quarter of 1995 and 1994 is
39%.
Financial Condition
The Company's financial condition continued to strengthen with long-term debt
reducing to $40,596,000 as of March 31, 1995 compared to $42,177,00 at March
31, 1994. The Company's long-term debt did increase from $29,541,000 as of
December 31, 1994 in order to fund the seasonal increases required in accounts
receivable and inventories. Accounts receivable increased to $50,417,000 as
of March 31, 1995 compared to $41,991,000 as of March 31, 1994 and $38,415,000
as of December 31, 1994. Inventories increased to $64,100,000 as of March
31, 1995 compared to $55,165,000 as of March 31, 1994 and $51,676,000 as of
December 31, 1994. Both the accounts receivable (20.1%) and the inventory
(16.2%) increases from March 31, 1994 to March 31, 1995 compare favorably to
the Company's sales increase of 20.1% for the first quarter 1995 compared to
1994. The increase
6
<PAGE> 7
in inventories is funded by both long-term debt, as noted above, and by
accounts payable. Accounts payable as of March 31, 1995 was $35,004,000
compared to $24,627,000 as of March 31, 1994 and $20,667,000 as of December 31,
1994.
As of March 31, 1995 the Company had $11,200,000 remaining available under its
revolving credit agreement. Expenditures for capital improvements totaled
$827,000 in the first quarter and relates primarily to expenditures for the
opening of new Service Centers. In April, the Company exercised a purchase
option for its leased Avon Lake, Ohio distribution facility. This facility is
approximately 139,000 square feet and its purchase price is slightly in excess
of $2,000,000. This transaction is scheduled to be consummated within the next
90 days.
