NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Nine Months
Ended March 31, 1995 and 1994
(Unaudited)
A. Interim Financial Statements:
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of
Southern Electronics Corporation and subsidiary (the "Company")
have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. The results of operations for the three months
and nine months ended March 31, 1995 are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.
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 financial statements be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the
year ended June 30, 1994.
B. Earnings Per Common Share:
Earnings per common share have been calculated based on the
weighted average number of common shares and common share
equivalents outstanding during each period.
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 Compared to Three Months Ended
March 31, 1994
Net sales for the third quarter ended March 31, 1995 increased 33.5%
compared to the third quarter ended March 31, 1994. This growth
resulted primarily from the increase in sales to value-added
resellers (VARS) and dealers served by the Company. Sales of
microcomputers and computer peripheral products represented
approximately 93.1% of the Company's business for the third quarter
ended March 31, 1995 as compared to approximately 91.8% for the third
quarter ended March 31, 1994. Sales of cellular telephone products
accounted for approximately 6.9% of the business for the third
quarter ended March 31, 1995 as compared to 8.2% for the year-earlier
period.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 6.9% for the third
quarter as compared to 8.2% for the same period in the prior year.
This decrease is primarily attributable to more competitive pricing
during the quarter ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the quarter
ended March 31, 1994.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
sales decreased to 4.5% for the third quarter ended March 31, 1995
compared with 4.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 1994. This
decrease is due primarily to cost control measures implemented in the
third quarter ended March 31, 1995.
Income tax expense was recorded at an effective annual rate of 37.9%
for the third quarters ended March 31, 1995 and March 31, 1994.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 1995 Compared to Nine Months Ended
March 31, 1994
Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 increased 29.5%
compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1994. This growth
resulted primarily from the increase in sales to value-added
resellers and dealers served by the Company. Sales of microcomputers
and computer peripherals products represented approximately 90.7% of
the Company's business for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 and
as compared approximately to 90.2% for the nine months ended March
31, 1994. Sales of cellular telephone products accounted for
approximately 9.3% of the business for both the nine months ended
March 31, 1995 as compared to approximately 9.8% for the year-earlier
period.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 7.1% for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to 8.3% for the same period
in the prior year. This decease is primarily attributable to more
competitive pricing during the nine months ended March 31, 1995 as
compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1994.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
sales increased to 4.8 % for the nine months ended March 31, 1995
compared with 4.6% for the nine months ended March 31, 1994. This
increase, as a percentage of sales, is primarily due to increased
training, selling and marketing expenses.
Income tax expense was recorded in the nine months ended March 31,
1995 at an effective annual rate of 37.9% as compared to 38.1% in the
nine months ended March 31, 1994.
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (continued)
Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
The Company and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Southern
Electronics Distributors, Inc. ("SED"), are parties to a revolving
credit loan agreement, as amended (the "Revolving Credit Agreement"),
with National City Bank, Columbus, Ohio, which provides for an
unsecured line of credit of $20,000,000. Outstanding loans bear
interest at the bank's "reference rate" (9.0% at March 31, 1995).
The Revolving Credit Agreement requires a commitment fee of 1/8% per
annum payable quarterly against the unused availability.
The Revolving Credit Agreement requires maintenance of certain
minimum working capital and other financial ratios and has certain
dividend restrictions. This agreement expires on February 28, 1996.
The Company's liquidity requirements arise primarily from the funding
of working capital needs, including inventories and trade accounts
receivable. The Company funded these needs with internally generated
funds and, at times, borrowings under its revolving credit line.
During the nine months ended March 31, 1995, the Company used $6.4
million for operating activities compared to providing $13.9 million
from operating activities in the comparable prior year period. At
March 31, 1995, the Company had borrowings of $8,940,000, leaving an
available balance of $11,060,000.
Management believes that the Revolving Credit Agreement, together
with vendor lines of credit and internally generated funds, will be
sufficient to satisfy its working capital needs during fiscal 1995.
Other Developments
On March 15, 1995, the Company entered into a letter of intent
("Letter of Intent") with GBC Technologies, Inc. ("GBC")
contemplating the merger of the Company into a wholly-owned
subsidiary of GBC. The Letter of Intent provides that in the merger
the shares of common stock of the Company would be converted into
registered shares of common stock of GBC at a one-to-one exchange
ratio. The Letter of Intent contemplates that the transaction would
be structured as a tax-free merger and would be treated as a "pooling
of interests" for accounting purposes. The merger is subject to the
negotiation of a definitive agreement between the Company and GBC,
satisfactory due diligence by both parties, registration with the
Securities and Exchange Commission of the shares of common stock of
GBC to be issued in the transaction and other customary conditions
and approvals, including approvals by the shareholders of the Company
and GBC. No definitive merger agreement has been entered into or
negotiated by the Company and GBC. The Company and GBC are presently
conducting a due diligence review of each other's business
operations.
