THE COMPANY
There are two basic processes that take place in the plant of the
company. First the roll of plastic film is laminated with another roll of film
to give it strength. The other is to apply a heat seal coating to the basic
material to act as a sealant, and is called a coated roll. This resulting roll
is either used in the next process, or sold to others as is. The laminated rolls
are sold to the meat industry, to other food packagers, and as a generic
product. The coated rolls are sold to snack food makers, to specialty food
manufacturers, and as a generic product. The product sales mix is about 10%
laminated rolls, 20% coated rolls, and 70% pouches, and are sold to wide variety
of customers. The company has been able in the past to keep the employees
employed full time as a result, since it can sell this basic laminated roll to
any number of customers.
The other process takes the laminated roll of plastic film, folds
it over, and makes a pouch, or bag. This machine seals the pouch on three sides,
cuts it to the desired length, and is able to make the folded over roll wide
enough to make two pouches at the same time. These are sold in standard sizes,
and some to customers specifications, and may be up to 35 inches wide.
The pouch that comes from this process is then used for packaging
products. The customer takes the pouch, inserts the product, removes the air
from the pouch, and seals the fourth side. This removal of air causes the
plastic pouch to collapse around the product and the result is the package found
in most stores. Some processors do this by machine, but most pack the product in
the pouch by hand. The FDA has set standards for this type of plastic film pouch
for food products. The company meets these standards. The FDA standards are met
by the suppliers of the basic material; the company relies on these written
representations and its own testing to ensure that the FDA standards are met.
The pouches made by the Company are also used for medical products, and, in one
instance, as a bag for blankets.
The company has machinery that will enable it to custom make
pouches for various customers in different thicknesses and sizes.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the shares
offered, provided that all of them are sold, will be $955,161. The proceeds will
be used to purchase a printer and to expand the plant of the Company. The funds
will be used as follows:
Purchase printer $850,000
Expand plant $105,161
--------
Total $955,161
The Company intends to purchase a 6 color printing press, central
impression variety, to print the bags that it makes. This will enable the
Company to be able to sell completed bags to its customers, and will allow it
complete the printing at a lower cost.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Company is offering to sell to its shareholders one share for
each four shares owned by the shareholder. Each shareholder will be sent a
letter explaining the plan, and will have 14 days to advise the Company if he
desires to purchase the shares, and will be given the option to purchase more
shares in the event that there are shares not sold. In the event that he does
not desire to purchase the shares the shares will be offered to shareholders
that have indicated a desire to purchase more shares. The shares will not be
sold in an underwritten public offering, and no commissions will be paid.
DILUTION
As of September 30, 1995, the net tangible book value per common
share was $1.35. "Net Tangible book value" per common share represents the
amount of tangible assets of the Company reduced by the amount of its total
liabilities divided by the number of common shares outstanding. After giving
effect to the issuance and sale by the Company of 350,000 shares, the pro forma
net tangible book value at September 30, 1995 would have been $1.63 per share.
The result is an immediate dilution to investors of $1.12 per share. Dilution
per share represents the difference between the price per share paid by
investors and the pro forma net tangible book value at September 30, 1995.
The following table illustrates this per share dilution as of
September 30, 1995:
Offering price per share $2.75
Net tangible book value before offering $1.35
Adjusted net tangible book value after offering $1.63
Dilution to investors $1.12
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The company has authorized 10,000,000 shares of stock, no par
value. Each holder of common stock has one vote per share on all matters voted
upon by the shareholders. Such voting rights are noncumulative so that
shareholders holding more than 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock are
able to elect all members of the Board of Directors. There are no preemptive
rights or other rights of subscription.
Each share of common stock is entitled to participate equally in
dividends as and when declared by the Board of Directors of the company out of
funds legally available, and is entitled to participate equally in the
distribution of assets in the event of liquidation. All shares, when issued and
fully paid, are nonassessable and are not subject to redemption or conversion
and have no conversion rights.
LEGAL MATTERS
The legality of the shares will be passed upon for the Company by
Charles Clayton, Minneapolis, Minnesota.
