Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
1.Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The consolidated condensed balance sheet as of March 31,
1996, and the consolidated condensed statements of
operations and cash flows for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 and April 2, 1995, have been prepared by
the Company, without audit. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
financial position, results of operations and changes in
cash flows at March 31,1996 and for all periods presented
have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these
consolidated condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report to
Stockholders. The results of operations for the period
ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of
the operating results for the full year.
2.Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, American Sign
& Marketing Services, Inc., and Carter-Miot, Inc. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated.
3.Inventories
Inventories consist of the following:
March 31, 1996 December 31, 1995
(in thousands)
Finished goods $ 24,818 $ 22,008
Work-in-process 2,787 4,289
Raw materials 7,458 7,330
Less: LIFO inventory reserve (2,063) (2,063)
Total net inventory $ 33,000 $ 31,564
Inventories are stated at the lower-of-cost or market.
Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out method
(LIFO).
4.Earnings Per Share
Net income per common share is based on the weighted
average number of common and common equivalent shares
outstanding in each period. For purposes of computing
common equivalent shares outstanding, shares relating to
options have been calculated using the treasury stock
method for the portion of each period for which the
options were outstanding and using the fair value of the
Company's stock for each of the respective periods.
The weighted average number of common and common stock
equivalent shares outstanding at March 31, 1996 were
3,800,000.
ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 (1996 Quarter) compared to the
consolidated results of operations for the three months
ended April 2, 1995 (1995 Quarter):
The Company's sales in the first quarter of 1996 increased
50% to $30,142,000 from $20,056,000 for the same period last
year. First quarter 1996 sales were higher than prior year
due to sales of $3,200,000 from our new subsidiary, Carter-
Miot, Inc., as well as stronger volume across all of our
businesses.
The Company's gross profit margin during the 1996 Quarter
(16.5%) was flat as compared to the margin during the 1995
Quarter (16.8%).
Selling, general, and administrative expenses were
$3,793,000 for the 1996 Quarter versus $3,094,000 for the
1995 Quarter, a 22.6% increase. The increase is primarily
due to the addition of our Carter-Miot subsidiary.
Operating income was $1,190,000 and $276,000 for the 1996
and 1995 Quarters, respectively. The increase in income was
primarily related to the higher sales volume.
Net income for the quarter was $458,000 as compared to
$28,000 for the first quarter of 1995. Net income per share
for the quarter was $0.12 as compared to $0.01 for the first
quarter of 1995.
Net interest expense increased to $451,000 for the 1996
Quarter compared to $214,000 in the 1995 Quarter.
The increased expense was primarily the result of higher
average debt balances.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had working capital of $30,063,000, a decrease
of $1,049,000 from the amount of working capital at
December 31, 1995. Funds of $3,070,000 were provided
by operating activities. Decreases in receivables was
the primary source of funds.
Investing activities used $255,000 as a result of property
and equipment purchases. Financing activities used
$2,815,000 primarily as a result of decreased net borrowings
under the Company's line of credit during the 1996 Quarter.
The Company's future capital expenditures will relate
principally to the acquisition of new machinery and
equipment and furniture and fixtures designed to increase
productivity and factory efficiency. The Company believes
its cash generated from operations and funds available under
the existing line of credit are sufficient for all planned
operating and capital requirements.
Seasonality
The Company's sales exhibit limited seasonality , with sales
in the first quarter generally being the lowest and fourth
quarter sales the highest. First quarter sales tend to be
relatively lower because of weather constraints which slow
down customer's construction schedules and their pattern of
sign purchases. Sales have normally accelerated in the
second, third, and fourth quarters corresponding with
accelerating construction schedules.
