5. Earnings per share have been computed by dividing net earnings for the
thirteen weeks ended June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995 by 3,820,147 and
3,568,563 common shares, respectively. For the twenty-six weeks ended
June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995, earnings per share have been computed by
dividing the net loss by 3,818,664 and 3,568,100 of common shares
respectively. Common share equivalents included in the computation of
common and common equivalent shares represent shares issuable upon assumed
exercise of the stock options using the treasury stock method. Common
share equivalents are not included under the treasury stock method when
their effect is antidulitive.
6. During the fourth quarter of 1995, the Company recorded a $2.1 million
charge to exit certain unprofitable product lines, close the Company's
Canadian facility and move the Canadian operations to the Chicago
manufacturing and distribution facilities. As of December 30, 1995
approximately $.6 million of obsolete inventory reserves, $.2 million of
accrued legal and accrued severance and $.5 million of accrued facility
closing costs remained on the Company's books. The amount of cash paid
for legal and severance benefits, disposition of obsolete inventory and
cash paid and fixed asset write-offs charged to facility closing costs in
1996 is detailed as follows:

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
and Financial Condition
When used in this discussion, the words "believes", "anticipates",
"expected" and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only
as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to
republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events. Readers are also urged to carefully review and
consider the various disclosures made by the Company which attempt to
advise interested parties of the factors which affect the Company's
business, in this report, as well as the Company's periodic reports
on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
In the discussion and analysis that follows, all references to 1996
and 1995 refer to the 13 and 26 week periods ended June 29, 1996
and July 1, 1995. The following amounts are in thousands of dollars.
Results of operations for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 1996, and July 1, 1995.
Net sales decreased $473 (4%) from 1995 due primarily to lower housewares
segment sales associated with the discontinuation of certain products.
Housewares sales declined 10% ($788) however, sales of the home improvement
segment were up 12% ($315) as projects deferred during the first quarter due to
inclement weather were initiated in the current period.
Gross profit margin improved to 42.5% from 39.8% last year. The improvement is
primarily associated with increased gross profit margins in the housewares
segment due to the
10
<PAGE> 11
discontinuation of unprofitable product lines, reduced provisions for obsolete
inventory and lower resin prices. Partially mitigating these variances was
lower overhead absorption associated with the decrease in sales and required
cutbacks in production.
Operating expenses decreased 15% during the period primarily as a result of
reduction in personnel, acquisition related expenses, professional services,
sales detailing, packaging graphics, and the closing of the Canadian plant.
Amortization of intangibles was also reduced due to the expiration of a
non-compete agreement and the 1995 write-down of certain intangible assets. As
a percentage of net sales, operating expenses decreased to 34% from 38%,
primarily attributable to management's efforts to control such expenses.
Interest expense decreased $78 from last year due to debt reductions of $2.3
million in the fourth quarter of 1995.
Other income decreased $86 compared to last year due to lower gains on fixed
asset sales, the absence of a franchise tax refund received in 1995 and a
foreign exchange loss compared to the foreign exchange gain recorded last year.
No income tax expense was recorded during the period due to the availability of
net operating loss carryforwards.
Results of operations for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995.
Net sales decreased 12% ($2,589) during the period. Housewares sales were down
$2,283 (13%) during the period due to the discontinuation of certain products,
inventory restrictions imposed by certain key retail customers and the absence
of pipeline fill sales to a large retail customer. Home improvement sales were
down 7% ($306) as a result of inclement weather during the first few months of
the year.
11
<PAGE> 12
Gross profit margin decreased to 38.2% from 38.6% last year. The decrease in
the gross profit percentage is associated with unabsorbed fixed costs at the
home improvement segment due to the weather related sales decrease during the
first few months of 1996. However, this decrease in gross profit margin was
largely mitigated by an increase in the gross profit percentage at the
housewares segment associated with the 1995 decision to discontinue certain
unprofitable product lines, reduced resin prices and lower provisions for
obsolete inventory.
Operating expenses decreased 11% for the 26 week period. The decrease was due
to reduced costs at the housewares segment associated with the closing of the
Canadian plant, headcount related salary and benefit reductions, reduced
acquisition and other professional services, depreciation, legal fees, trade
show expense, travel, sales detailing and the absence of a 1995 marketing
expense accrual. Also contributing to the decrease in operating expenses was
reduced amortization associated with the expiration of a non-compete agreement
and the 1995 write-down of certain intangible assets as well as volume related
decreases in commissions and freight expense.
Interest expense decreased $115 due to debt reduction of $2.3 million in the
fourth quarter of 1995.
Other income decreased $177 as a result of lower gains on fixed asset sales,
foreign exchange losses compared to the foreign exchange gains and lower
interest income as a result of reduced cash balances and the maturity of
interest bearing marketable securities.
Income tax expense decreased $13 compared to last year. No tax expense was
recorded this year due to the availability of net operating loss carryforwards.
12
<PAGE> 13
OUTLOOK
The Company anticipates that the factors impacting net sales in the first half
of the year have been reduced and that second half sales trends will approach
last year's performance. Inventory restrictions at a key housewares customer
have been lifted and recent order patterns have returned to normal. Further,
the second half of 1995 did not include any significant pipeline fill shipments
to housewares customers. As such, second half net sales in the housewares
business are expected to track closer to prior year performance. Management
believes the home improvement business will perform at or slightly better than
1995 in the second half as a result of new product introductions. The home
improvement business, however, is highly susceptible to weather conditions
since sales are predicated on building contractors' ability to work outside.
As such, general weather conditions can have either a positive or negative (as
occurred in the first quarter) impact, particularly in the fourth quarter.
Gross profit margins are expected to continue the second quarter trend. Margin
improvement is the result of mix improvements in the housewares segment and
slightly lower resin costs. The Company will continue to monitor inventory
levels closely and, as such, does not expect to produce at capacity.
Accordingly, certain overhead costs are not expected to be fully absorbed.
Management efforts to control operating expenses in the second quarter resulted
in reductions of a permanent nature. The Canadian facility was closed and
other personnel reductions were initiated. These actions will result in the
continuing decline of operating expenses during the remainder of the year as
compared to 1995. Management believes the cost structure of the Company is now
reflective of existing sales levels and that the Company is positioned for
sustained profitability.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Net working capital of $6,701 was $11 less than the end of 1995. Cash used by
operations increased $1,204 compared to last year due to the 1995 collection of
a patent infringement suit
13
<PAGE> 14
($1,600). Also contributing to the increase in cash used by operations was the
increase in the net loss, funding of severance and other items related to the
closing of the Company's Canadian facility and the payment of accrued employee
wages, incentive compensation and other benefits. However, efforts to control
inventories at a level consistent with the current sales volume and reductions
in receivables generated increased cash flow compared to last year.
Sales of the Company's home improvement products are generally lower in the
first and fourth quarter of the calendar year. Net earnings vary
proportionately more than sales due to the effect of fixed costs. Results of
operations for the 13 week period ended June 29, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the 52 week period ended December
28, 1996.
On April 12, 1996 the Company completed the consolidation of its banking
relationships and entered into a new Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement
provides an $8.0 million line of credit subject to asset based availability
formulas and a line of credit to support letters of credit required for the
Company's Industrial Development Finance Authority Bonds. All of the Company's
assets are pledged as collateral in support of the Credit Agreement. The
Company is in compliance with the loan covenants of the Credit Agreement. At
July 18, 1996 there were no borrowings outstanding under the asset based line
of credit.
