NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The balance sheet for Alfa International Corp. ("Alfa" or ,the
"Company") at the end of the preceding fiscal year has been
derived from the audited balance sheet and notes thereto
contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997 and is presented herein for
comparative purposes. All other financial statements are
unaudited. 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 financial position for all periods presented have been made.
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of operating results for the full year. Alfa presently
has one wholly-owned subsidiary through which it conducts all
operations. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
its consolidation with Alfa.
Footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted in accordance with the published
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1997.
NOTE 2 - COMMON STOCK
During the second quarter of 1998, the Company issued 10,000
shares of its Common Stock and 5,000 warrants as a result of the
sale of four-tenths of a unit ("Unit") of its securities in a
private placement ("Private Placement") as described in the
Company's Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1997. The Company has engaged the services of
Continental International Trading Corp. ("Continental") as non-
exclusive placement agent for the Private Placement. The Company
is not obligated to pay any fees to Continental on any sale of
Units to investors not directly introduced to the Company by
Continental, nor are any fees due to Continental as a result of
the exercise of any warrants contained in previously sold Units.
The price of each Unit is $25,000 and each Unit consists of
25,000 shares of Common Stock and 12,500 Warrants. Each Warrant
is exercisable for the purchase of one share of Common Stock.
ALFA INTERNATIONAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
All of the Company's operations are conducted through its wholly
owned subsidiary, Ty-Breakers Corp. ("Ty-Breakers"). Ty-Breakers
is engaged in the business of manufacturing and marketing
apparel, mostly jackets, made from Tyvek and Kensel. Tyvek is a
registered trademark of the Du Pont Company. Kensel is a
trademark of Ty-Breakers used to identify Ty-Breakers' patented
fabric material. The Company began implementing its sales and
marketing plan for its Ty-Breakers subsidiary in July of 1997.
These marketing efforts continue to date.
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,1998 vs.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,1997
The Company experienced an increase in net revenue of $ 21,924
for the second quarter of 1998 as compared to the same period in
the previous year. This revenue increase resulted from an
increase in Ty-Breakers' sales of $ 18,986 as a result of
orders received from Ty-Breakers' initial direct mail campaign to
retail stores which was initiated in November 1997, interest
income and other income. The cost of sales percentage for the
second quarter of 1998 was 36% and the gross profit percentage
was 64%.
Selling , general and administrative expenses increased by
$ 60,870 during the second quarter of 1998 compared to the same
period in the previous year. This increase is attributable to the
increase in personnel and marketing expenses associated with Ty-
Breakers' marketing efforts.
The Company experienced a net loss of $ 66,698 for the second
quarter of 1998 as compared to a net loss of $ 20,634 during the
same period in the previous fiscal year. This increase of
$ 46,064 is attributable to the increased expenses mentioned
above and the failure to attain a sufficient level of sales.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,1998 vs.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,1997
The Company experienced an increase in net revenue of $ 60,064
for the first six months of 1998 as compared to the same period
in the previous year. This revenue increase resulted from an
increase in Ty-Breakers' sales of $ 38,320 as a result of
orders received from Ty-Breakers' initial direct mail campaign to
retail stores which was initiated in November 1997, interest
income and other income of $20,959. The gross profit percentage
for the first six months of 1998 was 60%.
Selling , general and administrative expenses increased by
$ 115,112 during the first six months of 1998 compared to the
same period in the previous year. This increase is attributable
to the increase in personnel and marketing expenses associated
with Ty-Breakers' marketing efforts in support of sales to
retail stores which were first introduced during the fourth
quarter of 1997 and to increased professional fees.
The Company experienced a net loss of $ 137,154 for the first
six months of 1998 as compared to a net loss of $ 68,027 during
the same period in the previous fiscal year. This increase of
$ 69,127 is attributable to the increased expenses mentioned
above and the failure of Ty-Breakers to attain a sufficient level
of sales. Management believes that a profitable level of sales
will be attained if the Company continues its marketing efforts.
The continuation of these marketing efforts is contingent upon
the successful conclusion of the Company's ongoing Private
Placement, the outcome of which can not be predicted at this
time.
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
At June 30, 1998 the Company had working capital of $ 1,674 as
compared to $ 12,453 at December 31, 1997. This decrease is
attributable to the Company's loss from operations during the
period net of the receipt during the period by the Company of the
net proceeds of $130,000 from the sale of 10.4 Units in the
Private Placement. On August 14, 1998, the Company received
$150,000 which were the proceeds from the exercise of 150,000
warrants held by an investor. Approximately 78% of current assets
are invested in inventory.
The Company is continuing the Private Placement and will use the
net proceeds therefrom to finance further marketing efforts for
its Ty-Breakers subsidiary. A successful completion of the
Private Placement and / or an increase in Ty-Breakers' level of
sales is necessary to continue to carry out the Ty-Breakers'
sales and marketing plan. It is necessary for the Company to
increase its levels of sales as well as succeed in selling
additional equity in order to allow continued operations. No
assurances can be given, however, that adequate financing can be
obtained from the Private Placement or other such sources or
generated from operations.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
