Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Results of Operations.
The Company's sales for the first fiscal quarter ending January 31, 1997 were
$1,508,113, up 6% compared to the corresponding quarter in 1996. The
increased sales during 1997 were primarily the result of increases in
international activity, club business, additional co-packing for Western
Family and Weight Watchers, and continued increases in sales from new
products.
The increase in sales during the first quarter of 1997 was less than the
26.4% increase in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996 due to cancellation of a
contract with one low margin food service account. This was offset by the
increased sales described above. Management is especially pleased with the
sales trend for its new single serve 4 oz cup products introduced during
1996. These are 4 oz single serve hard pack cups containing nonfat yogurt
and a high quality nondairy sorbet in several flavors. These products are
produced under the "Soft Scoop(registered trademark)...by YO CREAM" label,
and under SYSCO's "Cool N'Classy"(trademark) label. The products have been
well received at food shows, and have been introduced to several new
operators resulting in significant sales gains for a new product. This
product is unique because it responds to operator needs by offering portion
cost control, labor savings, and at the same time provides a healthy and
convenient product that meets the needs of consumers.
The Company's gross profit margin decreased to 27% during the quarter,
compared to 28.9% in the corresponding quarter in 1996. The reduction in
gross profit was primarily due to the increase in costs that occurred in the
last twelve months. The increase in costs is consistent with the trend in
the industry. The Company has responded by announcing a price increase to be
effective in April 1997.
Selling and marketing expenses in the first quarter decreased from 17.4% to
15.4% of sales. Such expenses were down due to a seasonal decrease in point
of sale materials expense.
General and administrative expenses increased slightly from 15.9% to 16.1%
of sales for the quarter. The expenses for the current quarter reflected an
increase over the corresponding quarter in 1996 primarily due to increases in
payroll related costs. General and administrative expenses are relatively
fixed due to management's efforts to control such expenses.
The loss from operations remained relatively level at approximately 4.5% of
sales. An operating loss for the first quarter has been normal due to the
seasonal nature of the Company's business, and is not an indicator of the
expected results for the year. Management expects a major expansion in sales
volume and is preparing for it by increasing its plant freezing and storage
capacity. The facility improvements are expected to improve productivity and
reduce outside storage costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The company has financed its operations and expansion from bank loans,
capital leases, capital investment by its founders, private and public
securities offerings and internally generated funds.
As of January 31, 1997, the Company's total borrowings under its bank line of
credit were $1,190,000, against a collateral base of approximately
$1,139,000. At January 31, 1997 the Company had cash funds available
aggregating $400,358 which were available to reduce bank borrowings. The
current level of borrowings is consistent with the season of the year and
compares with $1,051,024 at January 31, 1996. Interest is at 1% over the
bank's basic commercial lending rate. Total borrowings under this line are
payable upon demand and limited to 65% of eligible accounts receivable and
30% of eligible inventory, plus loan insurance provided by a governmental
agency, up to an aggregate maximum of $1,500,000. The bank is currently in
the process of renewing the line which matures April 1, 1997. The new line
is expected to provide for an increase in borrowing limits and provide a
$300,000 credit facility for equipment financing.
Accounts receivable at January 31, 1997 were $604,955, which reflects a 19.2%
decrease compared to October 31, 1996. The decrease is primarily
attributable to the seasonal decline in sales compared to October 1996, and
collection of certain unusual receivables.
Inventory decreased to $1,412,194 at January 31, 1997. This 10% decrease is
primarily due to management's efforts to reduce inventory levels during the
slower season of the year to minimize holding costs.
The Company believes its existing assets, bank lines, and revenues from
operations will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations for at least
the next twelve months. The Company expects its bank line to be renewed or
replaced at maturity. In the event that the Company's bank lines were not
renewed or replaced, the Company would need to curtail operations
substantially, seek additional capital, or both. <PAGE>
