LANCER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made
which are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of
operations. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. It is suggested that the consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the December 31, 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Net earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common and
common equivalent (dilutive stock options) shares outstanding each period. Fully
diluted net earnings per share would not be different than net earnings per
share. On July 8, 1997, the Company effected a three-for-two stock split
accounted for as a dividend. Prior year weighted average shares outstanding and
prior year per share amounts have been restated accordingly.
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for prior years have
been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.
2. Inventory Components
The Company uses the gross profit method to determine cost of sales and
inventory for interim periods. Inventory components are estimated based on
historical relationships as follows:

3. Long-term Debt and Revolving Facility
Effective May 12, 1997, the Company increased its revolving facility from $17.5
million to $25.0 million. All other material terms of the revolving facility are
unchanged.
4. Earnings Per Share
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share
(Statement 128). Statement 128 specifies the computation, presentation, and
disclosure requirements for earnings per share (EPS) for entities with publicly
held common stock or potential common stock. Statement 128 was issued to
simplify the computation of EPS and to make the U.S. standard more compatible
with the EPS standards of other countries and that of the International
Accounting Standards Committee (IASC). It replaces the presentation of primary
EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS.
<PAGE>
If the Company had adopted the Statement as of June 30, 1997, EPS would have
been as follows:

Item 2 - Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 were $32.3 million, a 26.1%
increase from sales in the second quarter of 1996. The increase in 1997 reflects
the inclusion of the Companys newly-acquired operations in Brazil and New
Zealand, sales of frozen beverage equipment produced by the joint venture formed
in late 1996, as well as growth from established operations. Sales to customers
outside the United States accounted for 55.1% of sales in the second quarter of
1997, and 37.1% of sales in the second quarter of 1996.
Gross margins in the second quarter of 1997 were 24.6%, up from 23.9% in the
same period of 1996. The improvement was the result of improved manufacturing
efficiencies.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.8 million during the
quarter ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $1.4 million, or 42.1% from the
second quarter of 1996. The Companys newly acquired operations in Brazil and
New Zealand, and the establishment of a distribution company based in Belgium,
contributed to the increase in expenses in the 1997 quarter.
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $0.8 million, up
$0.4 million, or 118.4%, from the same period of 1996. The higher interest
expense in 1997 was driven by increased borrowing that financed Lancers recent
acquisitions, capital spending, and growth of its current assets. Other income
was $0.4 million in the second quarter of 1997, up from $0.1 million in the 1996
period. Income from the Companys frozen beverage dispenser joint venture was
primarily responsible for the improvement in 1997. Net earnings for the 1997
quarter was $1.8 million, up 18.0% from the $1.5 million of net earnings in
1996.
Comparison of the Six-Month Periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $62.7 million, a 27.2%
increase from net sales in the same period of 1996. The Companys new operations
in Brazil (acquired in January, 1997) and in New Zealand (acquired in April,
1997) contributed to the sales growth. In addition, sales of the Companys
frozen beverage dispensers and an overall increase in international sales also
contributed to the sales growth during the 1997 period. Sales to customers
outside the United States were 50.3% of net sales in the first half of 1997,
compared to 41.2% in the same period of 1996.
Gross margins in the first half of 1997 were 24.9%, compared to 24.0% in the
first two quarters of 1996. Continued improved manufacturing efficiencies drove
the gross margin improvement in the 1997 period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $9.1 million in the first two
quarters of 1997, a 36.7% increase over the amount incurred in the year earlier
period. Added operating costs associated with the Companys new operations in
Brazil, New Zealand and Belgium led to the increase.
Interest expense rose to $1.4 million in the first half of 1997 from $0.8
million in the same period of 1996. Larger borrowings caused the increase in
1997. Other income for the six months was $0.5 million in 1997, up from $0.2
million in 1996. Net earnings rose to $3.6 million for the six-month period of
1997 from $2.9 million in the 1996 period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used by operating activities was $0.9 million in the first half of
1997, compared to $0.1 million of cash provided by operating activities in the
same period of the prior year. Lancer invested $5.0 million in property, plant
and equipment in the first half of 1997. Additionally, the Company paid
approximately $6.0 million for its Brazilian operations, and $3.3 million for
the assets of the New Zealand company acquired in the second quarter. The
Company financed the Brazilian transaction with a $4.0 million note issued to
the seller and $2.0 million in cash. The New Zealand consideration consisted of
122,832 shares of Lancer Corporation common stock valued at approximately $1.6
million, adjusted for the three-for-two stock split effected July 8, 1997, and
$1.7 million in cash. Lancer financed the cash portion of its acquisitions and
its capital spending with bank debt.
Effective May 12, 1997, the Company increased its revolving facility from $17.5
million to $25.0 million. All other material terms of the revolving facility are
unchanged.
Part II - Other Information
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims generally incidental to
its business. In the opinion of management and independent legal counsel, the
ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a significant
adverse effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
During the Lancer Corporation Annual Meeting of Shareholders held May 22, 1997,
the Shareholders considered the following proposals:
1.) An amendment to the Companys 1996 Stock Incentive Plan (the
Plan) to allow for an increase in the maximum number of shares
for which options may be awarded under the Plan. The shareholders
approved an increase to 600,000 shares from 225,000 shares of
Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of options to be
granted under the Plan. Such shares were subsequently increased to
900,000 following a three-for-two stock split effected as of July
8, 1997. Of the then outstanding shares, 5,009,858 voted for the
amendment to the Plan, 242,937 voted against, and 58,233
abstained.
2). An amendment to the Companys Articles of Incorporation increasing
the number of authorized Common Shares to 50,000,000 nonassessable
$0.01 par value common shares from 10,000,000 shares. Of the then
outstanding shares, 5,060,283 voted for the amendment to the
Articles of Incorporation, 403,101 voted against and 9,598
abstained.
