GALAXY FOODS COMPANY
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in
conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this report.
The following discussion contains certain forward-looking
statements, within the meaning of the "safe-harbor" provisions of
the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995, the attainment of
which involves various risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking
statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "may", "will", "expect", "believe",
"estimate", "anticipate", "continue", or similar terms,
variations of these terms or the negative of those terms. The
Company's actual results may differ materially from those
described in these forward-looking statements due to among other
factors, competition in the Company's product markets, dependence
on suppliers, the Company's manufacturing experience, and
production delays or inefficiencies.
Galaxy Foods Company (the "Company") is principally engaged in
the development, manufacturing and marketing of a variety of
healthy cheese and dairy related products, as well as other
cheese alternatives. These healthy cheese and dairy related
products include low or no fat, low or no cholesterol and lactose-
free varieties. These products are sold throughout the United
States and internationally to customers in the retail, food
service and industrial markets. The Company's headquarters,
manufacturing and warehouse facilities are located in Orlando,
Florida.
Results of Operations
Net Sales were $10,118,593 in the quarter ended December 31,
1999, compared to net sales of
$8,016,245 for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an increase
of 26%. Net sales were $31,021,298 for the nine months ended
December 31, 1999 as compared to $21,362,621 for the same period
one year ago, an increase of 45%. The increase in sales has been
a trend for the company over the last three fiscal years. The
Company commenced targeted advertising campaigns for its flagship
brand of Veggie products, including print, television and radio
advertising in key markets across the country. This has resulted
in an upward trend in sales volume for the Veggie line of
products. The Company expects this trend in sales volume to
continue throughout fiscal 2000.
Cost of Goods Sold were $6,150,637 representing 61% of net sales
for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, compared with $5,140,196
or 64% of net sales for the same period ended December 31, 1998.
Cost of Goods Sold were $19,463,363 for the nine months ended
December 31, 1999, representing 63% of net sales as compared to
$14,696,095 or 69% of net sales for the nine months ended
December 31, 1998. The decrease in the cost of goods sold as a
percentage of net sales was due to improvements in the Company's
gross margins primarily resulting from increased production
efficiencies, longer production runs, and changes in the product
mix to focus on sales of higher margin, branded products.
Selling expenses were $1,399,308 for the quarter ended December
31, 1999, compared with $1,099,558 for the same period ended
December 31, 1998, an increase of 27%. For the nine months ended
December 31, 1999, selling expenses were $4,347,732 as compared
to $2,554,464 for the same period one year ago, an increase of
70%. The increase in expenses over the same period a year ago is
mainly attributed to a new advertising campaign to promote the
Company's flagship line of Veggie products. The increase in
selling expenses also correlates to an increase in sales, as
approximately 31% of selling expenses, such as brokerage
commissions, are variable in nature and increase as sales
increase.
Delivery expenses were $588,652 for the quarter ended December
31, 1999, compared with $441,430 for the same period ended
December 31, 1998, a 33% increase. Delivery expenses were
$1,576,364 for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 as
compared to $1,096,136 for the nine months ended December 31,
1998. The increase in delivery costs is a result of the increase
in sales shipments to customers for the periods ended December
31, 1999 as compared with the same periods in the prior year.
In addition, there was an increase in shipping rates during the
third quarter of fiscal 2000.
<PAGE> 10
General and Administrative expenses were $893,570 for the quarter
ended December 31, 1999, compared with $540,501 for the same
period ended December 31, 1998, a 65% increase. General and
administrative expenses increased 82% to $2,692,475 for the nine
months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $1,477,595 for the
same period one year ago. This change is primarily attributed to
additional employees hired during the first two quarters in
connection with the Company's growth and to increased expenses
for consulting services for conversion to a new network server to
accommodate additional users.
Research and Development expenses were $71,935 for the quarter
ended December 31, 1999, compared with $48,913 for the quarter
ended December 31, 1998. These expenses were $167,250 for the
nine months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $136,785 for
the same period one year ago. The increase is due to the
addition of a second food scientist during the first quarter of
fiscal 2000.
Other Income and Expenses netted to $254,982 in expense for the
quarter ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $101,327 in
expense for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. These expenses
netted to $580,498 for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 as
compared to $197,624 for the same period in fiscal 1999.
Interest expense increased due to additional draws on the line of
credit during fiscal 2000, the addition of $4 million in
subordinated debt financing on September 30, 1999 and the
capitalization of certain interest expense to the construction in
progress during fiscal 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Activities -- Net cash used by operating activities was
$2,667,782 for the nine months ended December 31, 1999 compared
to net cash used of $3,233,401 for the same period in fiscal
1999. In the nine months ended December 31, 1999, the increase
in cash used in operating activities was a result of an increase
in trade receivables in connection with the Company's growth in
sales. In addition, the Company had an increase in inventory
levels accommodated by the new warehouse facility leased by the
Company in November 1999. During the same period in fiscal 1999,
cash was used in connection with the build-up of inventories to
manage the shift from distributor to direct sales for some large
customers. Direct shipping requires larger inventory on hand
balances and a reduced lead time on orders but reduces the costs
associated with the sale.
Investing Activities -- Net cash used in investing activities
totaled $1,506,933 for the nine month period ended December 31,
1999 compared to net cash used of $1,213,521 for the same period
in fiscal 1999. Cash used for investing activities during
fiscal 2000 resulted from purchases of racking and cooling
equipment and the construction of a new Culinary School for
foodservice customers during the first three quarters in fiscal
2000.
Financing Activities -- Net cash flows provided by financing
activities were $4,176,151 for the nine months ended December 31,
1999 compared to $4,427,363 for the nine months ended December
31, 1998. The large cash flows from financing activities during
fiscal 2000 is primarily attributable to the Company closing on a
$4,000,000 subordinated note payable to Finova Mezzanine
Corporation on September 30, 1999. The subordinated note bears
interest at a rate of 13.5% and is secured by a secondary lien on
the Company's assets.
In addition, on November 1, 1996, the Company secured a $2
million line of credit with Finova Capital Corporation with
interest at the prime rate plus two percent. The availability
under this line of credit arrangement is calculated on a
borrowing base of eligible inventory and accounts receivable.
This line of credit was increased to $3 million during February
1997. During June 1998, the Company amended the line of credit
availability to $3.5 million. The amendment also reduced the
interest on the line of credit to prime plus one half of a
percent. During December 1998, the Company further amended the
line of credit to increase borrowing availability to $5.5
million.
<PAGE> 11
On June 27, 1997, the Company secured a $1.5 million term note
payable with Finova Capital Corporation to finance the
acquisition of certain production equipment. The agreement calls
for interest at the prime rate plus two percent. During June
1998, the Company signed an amendment to the note which expanded
the term note payable to $3 million. The amendment also reduced
the interest on the term note to prime plus one percent.
On October 16, 1998, the Company sold 357,143 shares of its
common stock to a private investor at an aggregate price of
$937,500.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("FAS 133"). FAS
133 requires companies to recognize all derivative contracts as
either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and to measure
them at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative
may specifically be designated as a hedge, the objective of which
is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition of: (i) the
changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that
are attributable to the hedged risk; or (ii) the earnings effect
of the hedged transaction. For a derivative not designated as a
hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized as income in
the period of change. FAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, is
effective for all fiscal year quarters of fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. Historically, the Company has not entered
into any derivative contracts either to hedge existing risks or
for speculative purposes. Accordingly, the Company does not
expect adoption of the new standard on April 1, 2001 to affect
its financial statements.
Year 2000 Compliance
The Year 2000 problem is the result of information technology
systems and embedded systems (products that are made with
microprocessor (computer) chips) using a two-digit format, as
opposed to four digits, to indicate the year. Such information
technology and embedded systems may be unable to properly
recognize and process date-sensitive information beginning
January 1, 2000.
The Company had undertaken an assessment of the potential impact
of the Year 2000 issue to its internal operations. Such
assessment included a review of the impact primarily in the
following areas: production and manufacturing systems, business
systems, including sales and marketing, billing, and
infrastructure. The Company's infrastructure consists of a
network of personal computers and servers that were obtained from
major suppliers. The Company also utilizes various business,
administrative and financial software applications on the
infrastructure to perform the business functions of the Company.
The Company tested and upgraded its information technology
systems and embedded systems, which would have been affected by
the Year 2000 issue. To date, the Company has incurred
approximately $135,000 to upgrade its systems for compliance with
Year 2000 issues. These upgrades were also undertaken to improve
the functionality of the Company's production and accounting
systems. The Company did not experience any significant
problems associated with the Company's Year 2000 compliance.
<PAGE> 12
The Company has material third party relationships with its
customers, suppliers, shippers, utilities, financial
institutions, and transfer agent. If the operations of any of
these third parties are adversely impacted by Year 2000
deficiencies, it may have a material impact on the Company.
Accordingly, the Company requested information and documentation
from the Company's significant customers and suppliers, shippers,
utilities, financial institutions, and
transfer agent relating to their Year 2000 compliance plans in
the form of a survey. The Company's financial institutions and
transfer agent have certified Year 2000 compliance.
The Company received approximately 90% of its certifications from
customers. With respect to the responses received, no customers
indicated or displayed significant problems which could result in
a material loss.
The Company received approximately 95% of its certifications from
material suppliers. Of the 5% who have not responded, there are
no sole source suppliers for the Company. For each of the non-
respondents, the Company regularly does business with an
alternate supplier who has certified Year 2000 compliance to the
Company.
To date, management has not been advised that any of its
significant customers, suppliers, shippers, utilities, financial
institutions, or transfer agent has suffered any Year 2000
problem that could have a material adverse effect on the Company,
its operations or its performance.
