ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors which have affected the Company's operations during
the periods included in the accompanying (unaudited) consolidated
condensed statements of operations and balance sheets.
General
- -------
The Company's financial performance and growth are directly related to
certain characteristics and trends in the vegetable processing industry.
The United States vegetable processing industry is a mature industry,
with relatively modest growth. Therefore, any significant sales growth
that may be experienced by the Company likely would come at the expense
of the loss of market share by another processor, but also may occur
through efforts designed to promote increased consumption, such as
through the introduction of new or improved products or through
increased sales internationally, where the processed vegetable market is
currently growing.
The Company's net sales are affected by product availability and market
pricing. In the vegetable processing industry, product availability and
market prices tend to have an inverse relationship: market prices tend
to decrease as more product is available, whereas if less product is
available, market prices tend to increase. Product availability is a
direct result of plantings, growing conditions, crop yields and
inventories, all of which may vary from year to year. In addition,
price can be affected by the planting, inventory level and individual
pricing decisions of the three or four largest processors in the
industry. Generally, the market prices in the vegetable processing
industry tend to adjust more quickly to variations in product
availability than an individual processor can adjust its cost structure;
thus, in an oversupply situation, a processor's margins likely will
weaken, as suppliers generally are not able to adjust their cost
structure as rapidly as market prices adjust for the oversupply. The
Company typically has experienced lower margins during times of industry
oversupply. There can be no assurance the Company's margins will
improve in response to favorable market conditions or that the Company
will be able to operate profitably during depressed market conditions.
Net sales and profits for the three months and nine months ended
December 31, 1995 were adversely affected by the continued depressed
market conditions which prevailed in the vegetable processing industry
for most of that period. The Company believes that reduced industry
production in the summer of 1995 has resulted in more normal industry
inventory levels. However, market conditions have not rebounded,
indicating other market forces are at work which continue to depress
selling prices and increase selling and promotion expenses in order to
Page 9
respond to competitive pricing pressure. The Company believes these
market conditions may be the result of inventory distribution imbalances
within the industry, extremely competitive market conditions, including
aggressive pricing strategies of some industry participants, and the
emergence of large volume customers and the effects of their buying
power.
The discussion in this Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements
based on current management expectations. Factors which could cause
future results to differ from these expectations include the following:
general economic conditions; vegetable processing industry conditions
and price and volume fluctuations; competitive pressures and pricing
pressures; inventory risks; supply-related risks; demand-related risks;
third party lender actions; and results of Company - specific cost
containment and profit enhancement initiatives. Additional factors are
described in the Company's other reports filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Page 10
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Three Months Ended December 31, 1995 Compared to Three Months Ended
December 31, 1994
- ------------------
Net Sales
- ---------
Net sales decreased $1.2 million, or 1.8%, to $65.5 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 1995 compared to $66.7 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 1994. The decrease in sales is primarily
attributable to the decline in frozen vegetable sales volume.
Total canned vegetable sales increased $.8 million, or 1.5%, to $54.3
million for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 compared to $53.5
million for the quarter ended December 31, 1994. Selling prices
continued to reflect depressed market conditions in the vegetable
processing industry. The Company believes that reduced industry
production in the summer of 1995 has resulted in more normal industry
inventory levels. However, market conditions have not rebounded,
indicating other market forces are at work which continue to depress
selling prices and increase selling and promotion expenses in order to
respond to competitive pricing pressure. The Company believes these
market conditions may be the result of inventory distribution imbalances
within the industry, extremely competitive market conditions, including
aggressive pricing strategies of some industry participants, and the
emergence of large volume customers and the effects of their buying
power.
Sales of canned private label products decreased $1.5 million or 3.9% to
$37.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1995, compared to $38.8
million for the quarter ended December 31, 1994. The decrease in
private label sales was the result of a decrease in sales volume,
partially offset by improved average selling prices. Sales of canned
brand products increased $2.3 million or 15.6%, to $17.0 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 1995 compared to $14.7 million for the
quarter ended December 31, 1994. The increase in brand sales was the
result of a 5.3% increase in sales volume and improved average selling
prices.
Frozen vegetable sales declined $2.0 million, or 15.2%, to $11.2 million
for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 compared to $13.2 million for
the quarter ended December 31, 1994. The reduction in frozen sales was
due primarily to decreases in sales volume.
Page 11
Cost of Products Sold
- ---------------------
Cost of products sold as a percent of sales increased to 83.9% for the
quarter ended December 31, 1995 compared to 81.3% for the quarter ended
December 31, 1994. The increase of 2.6% in cost of products sold as a
percent of sales is due primarily to increases in the fixed cost
component of product costs due to reduced production volume caused by
reduced acreage and weather extremes during the summer of 1995.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
- -------------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative expense increased $3.1 million to
$11.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 from $8.4 million
for the quarter ended December 31, 1994. This increase resulted
primarily from a $2.7 million increase in selling and promotion expenses
due to the depressed market conditions prevailing in the third quarter
of fiscal 1996. The increase in selling and promotion expense was in
response to competitive pricing pressure.
Interest Expense
- ----------------
Interest expense decreased $.2 million to $2.8 million for the quarter
ended December 31, 1995 from $3.0 million for the quarter ended
December 31, 1994 due primarily to lower borrowing rates under a credit
agreement entered into on May 22, 1995.
Net Earnings (Loss)
- -------------------
The net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 was $3.6 million
compared to net income of $1.0 million for the quarter ended
December 31, 1994. The decline in net earnings was due primarily to
reduced margins and increased selling and promotion expenses due to
depressed market conditions.
Page 12
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Nine Months Ended December 31, 1995 Compared to Nine Months Ended
December 31, 1994
- -----------------
Net Sales
- ---------
Net sales decreased $6.3 million, or 3.8%, to $157.5 million for the
nine months ended December 31, 1995 compared to $163.8 million for the
nine months ended December 31, 1994. The decrease in sales is due to a
decline in frozen vegetable sales volume.
Total canned vegetable sales increased $9.9 million, or 8.0%, to $132.9
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 compared to $123.0
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1994. The increase in
total canned vegetable sales was the result of increases in sales volume
due to higher inventory availability during the nine months ended
December 31, 1995 from a much improved growing and harvesting season in
the summer of 1994. Average selling prices decreased slightly for the
respective periods. Selling prices continue to reflect depressed market
conditions in the vegetable processing industry. The Company believes
that reduced industry production in the summer of 1995 has resulted in
more normal industry inventory levels. However, market conditions have
not rebounded, indicating other market forces are at work which continue
to depress selling prices and increase selling and promotion expenses in
order to respond to competitive pricing pressure. The Company believes
these market conditions may be the result of inventory distribution
imbalances within the industry, extremely competitive market conditions,
including aggressive pricing strategies of some industry participants
and the emergence of large volume customers and the effects of their
buying power.
Sales of canned private label products increased $8.0 million or 9.0% to
$96.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1995, compared to
$88.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1994. The increase
in private label sales was the result of an increase in sales volume
primarily due to higher available inventory, partially offset by lower
average selling prices. Sales of canned brand products increased $1.9
million or 5.5%, to $36.4 million for the nine months ended December 31,
1995 compared to $34.5 million for the nine months ended December 31,
1994. The increase in brand sales was primarily the result of improved
average selling prices.
Frozen vegetable sales declined $16.2 million, or 39.7%, to $24.6
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 compared to $40.8
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1994. The reduction in
frozen sales was due to a 34% decrease in sales volume and lower average
selling prices. The decline in volume is attributable to year-ago
frozen vegetable sales being heavily weighted toward the first half of
the fiscal year due to low customer inventory levels in that period.
Page 13
Cost of Products Sold
- ---------------------
Cost of products sold as a percent of sales increased to 85.0% for the
nine months ended December 31, 1995 compared to 78.4% for the nine
months ended December 31, 1994. The increase of 6.6% in cost of
products sold as a percent of sales is due to the decline in frozen
selling prices, increases in certain cost components, including
containers and corrugated packaging and increases in the fixed cost
component of product costs due to reduced production volume caused by
reduced acreage and weather extremes during the summer of 1995.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
- -------------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.8 million to
$27.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 from $21.8
million for the nine months ended December 31, 1994. This increase
resulted primarily from a $5.3 million increase in selling expenses due
to the depressed market conditions prevailing in the first nine months
of fiscal 1996. The increase in selling and promotion expense was in
response to competitive pricing pressure.
Interest Expense
- ----------------
Interest expense decreased $.7 million to $7.3 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 1995 compared to $8.0 million for the nine
months ended December 31, 1994. Interest expense declined because the
increases in net working capital, primarily inventories, were funded in
part by the proceeds from a November 1994 common stock offering. In
addition, interest expense was reduced by lower borrowing rates under a
credit agreement entered into on May 22, 1995.
Net Earnings (Loss)
- -------------------
The net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 was $11.0
million compared to net income of $4.7 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 1994. The decline in net earnings was due to reduced
margins caused primarily by depressed frozen selling prices, increased
selling and promotion expenses due to continued depressed market
conditions and increased product costs.
Page 14
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------------------------------
General
- -------
Due to the seasonal production nature of the canned and frozen vegetable
processing business, the Company must maintain substantial inventories
of processed vegetables throughout the year. The working capital
requirements associated with producing and maintaining such inventories
are financed primarily through short-term borrowings and deferred
payment terms with major raw product and container suppliers.
Effective May 22, 1995, the Company entered into a revolving credit
agreement with various lenders which provides for borrowings up to $65
million. The credit agreement has been amended to provide for
additional borrowings of $10.0 million from December 1, 1995 through
January 31, 1996, and $5.0 million from February 1, 1996 through
February 26, 1996 to meet seasonal working capital requirements.
Interest rates were amended such that borrowings up to $65 million are
at the bank's reference rate ("prime rate") plus 1% while borrowings in
excess of $65 million bear interest at the bank's reference rate plus
2%. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility were $62.1 million
at December 31, 1995. The Company believes its revolving credit
facility should be adequate to meet the Company's future seasonal
borrowing needs based upon certain future working capital reduction
initiatives.
The Company has various long-term debt obligations, which aggregated
$75.8 million at December 31, 1995, excluding current maturities of $2.3
million. Included in the total long-term debt obligations are two
senior notes totaling $32.3 million, various Industrial Development
Revenue Bonds totaling $25.5 million, and $18.0 million of the revolving
credit notes which are not expected to be repaid within twelve months
and are therefore classified as long-term.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
- ------------------------------------
Cash used in operations during the nine months ended December 31, 1995
totaled $16.4 million. Of the total cash used, changes in operating
assets and liabilities used cash of $12.4 million, primarily due to an
increase in inventory of $40.1 million offset by increases in accounts
payable of $26.3 million. The increase in inventory levels primarily
reflects the seasonal increase in inventories from the current year
growing and harvesting season. The increase in accounts payable is due
to expected seasonal increases related to the summer processing season.
The remaining $4.0 million of cash used in operations reflects the net
loss of $11.0 million offset by non-cash charges to operations of $7.0
million primarily for depreciation of property, plant and equipment.
Page 15
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
- ------------------------------------
Net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended
December 31, 1995 was $5.1 million. Purchase of property, plant and
equipment was $6.7 million during the nine months ended December 31,
1995 and primarily related to investment in product quality control
equipment at several processing plants and the development and
implementation of a new management information system.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
- ------------------------------------
Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended
December 31, 1995 totaled $21.1 million and represents primarily
increases in revolving credit obligations used to finance the seasonal
increase in inventories. At December 31, 1995, the Company had $62.1
million of borrowings under a revolving credit facility, of which $18.0
million was classified as long term and $44.1 million was classified as
short term.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
- ---------------------------
A lawsuit was filed on January 3, 1995, in the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, against the Company, all of
the individual members of the Board of Directors of the Company, William
Blair & Company and Dain Bosworth, Inc. The plaintiff alleges he
sustained losses in connection with his purchase of shares of Common
Stock of the Company during the period from October 17, 1994, to
December 19, 1994, as a result of defendants' alleged misleading
statements and omissions to state material facts. The Company believes
the allegations are without merit or substance, and is defending the
action vigorously. Motions for dismissal have been filed by all
defendants. Such motions have been fully briefed and a decision from
the court is pending.
A second lawsuit seeking to represent class members who purchased shares
of Common Stock of the Company during the period from October 17, 1994,
to December 19, 1994, was filed on May 10, 1995, in the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. This second
lawsuit makes similar claims against the Company and certain officers
arising from the same facts and events. As with the first lawsuit, the
Company believes the allegations are without merit or substance and is
defending the action vigorously.
These lawsuits were consolidated on September 22, 1995 and the complaint
filed in the first lawsuit was deemed the operative complaint
superseding the complaint filed in the second lawsuit. The plaintiff in
the second lawsuit has since elected to withdraw as a plaintiff in the
consolidated lawsuit. The motions for dismissal remain pending in the
consolidated lawsuit as does plaintiff's motion for class certification.
In addition to the above cases, the Company also is involved in various
other legal actions and claims primarily arising in the normal course of
its business. In the opinion of management of the Company, the
liability, if any, would not have a material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
