Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Real Silk Investments, Incorporated (the Company) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended) as a closed-end diversified
management investment company. The Company, which primarily invests in
common stock, has no external managers and pays no management fees. The
significant accounting policies of the Company, which are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for closed-end management investment
companies, are described below.
Investments
Investments in securities traded on national securities exchanges or the
NASDAQ National Market are valued at the last reported sales price. Other
securities traded on the over-the-counter market are valued at the closing
bid prices. Bonds and notes are valued on the basis of quotations furnished by
recognized trade sources. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded as of
the trade dates. The cost bases of investments for federal income tax purposes
are the same as the book values.
Investment Income
Dividend and interest income are recorded on the accrual basis of
accounting. Cash dividends from securities are recorded as income on the
ex-dividend dates. Dividends for which the recipient has the choice to
receive cash or stock are recognized as investment income in the amount
payable in cash. Other noncash dividends are recognized as investment income
at the fair market value of the property received.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of increase and decrease in net assets
from operations during the period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Federal Income Tax
Prior to January 1, 1989, the Company was subject to federal income tax as
a regular ("C") corporation. Beginning January 1, 1989, the Company qualified
and elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company within the meaning
of Section 851 of the Internal Revenue Code and is currently reporting tax on
such basis. As a regulated investment company, the Company generally does
not pay federal income tax at the corporate level on current earnings which
are passed through to its stockholders.
The Tax Reform Act of 1986 gives the United States Treasury Department the
authority, under Section 337(d)(1), to promulgate regulations to assure that
the purposes of certain provisions of that Act (those taxing appreciated
property on the sale or liquidation of a corporation) are not circumvented
by the use of various entities, including regulated investment companies. In
Notice 88-19, Treasury stated its intention to issue regulations generally
making a C corporation taxable on built-in gains at the time it converts to a
regulated investment company, but permitting it to elect to be subject to
rules similar to those applicable to a corporation which elects to be taxed
as an S corporation. Those rules impose tax on the built-in gains of a C
corporation which are recognized during the first ten years following its
election to be an S corporation. If the intended regulations were adopted
as described in Notice 88-19, the appreciation of the assets of the Company
as of January 1, 1989 (the "built-in gains"), would be taxed to the extent
these gains are realized prior to January 1, 1999. To date, no such
regulations have been issued.
Because the authority to promulgate such regulations exists and because the
Treasury Department issued Notice 88-19, the Company has recorded a deferred
tax liability in its financial statements for the potential tax. If the
deferred tax liability did not exist, which will at least occur as of
January 1, 1999, the net asset value of the Company would be increased by
the amount of the deferred tax liability, which amounts to approximately
$78.97 per share at June 30, 1997.
As built-in gains have been realized, the Company has deposited with the
Internal Revenue Service amounts representing the potential tax on realized
built-in gains. However, because no regulations have been issued, the
Company, while continuing to make the deposits, is also requesting refunds of
the amounts deposited to protect the Company's right to those deposits
should regulations not be issued.
The Company has received a refund, or a notice of refund, from the Internal
Revenue Service for the amounts deposited representing the potential tax on
realized built-in gains for the tax years ending December 31, 1992 and 1996.
However, the Company cannot predict the response of the Internal Revenue
Service to the Company's request for refunds for the amounts deposited in
other years or whether or when such regulations will be issued.
Also, the Company is a personal holding company as defined in Section 542
of the Internal Revenue Code. As a personal holding company, the Company is
subject to a special surtax on any undistributed personal holding company
income. However, the Company intends to distribute all of its personal
holding company income.
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for
financial statement and tax purposes. The character of distributions made
during the year from net investment income or net realized gains, if any,
may differ from the ultimate characterization for federal income tax purpose
Distributions to Stockholders
The policy of the Company is to distribute all investment company taxable
income and to retain as much tax-exempt income as possible without incurring
tax at the corporate level and without jeopardizing the Company's regulated
investment company status. All or most of its realized capital gains are
retained.
As a regulated investment company, the Company may annually elect to treat
retained capital gains as distributed to its stockholders on the last day of
the year. The Company must pay a tax at the highest corporate rate on the
retained gains deemed distributed. The stockholders include these capital
gains in their individual income tax returns and receive a credit equal to
their share of the tax paid by the Company. The difference between the
gains retained by the Company and the tax paid by the Company on behalf of
the stockholders is added by the stockholder to the basis of their stock.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 1997, the Company realized long-term
capital gains of $9,132, realized long-term capital losses of $11,522 and
received a notice of refund of the 1996 built-in gains tax deposit of $19,267.
Note 2 - Net Assets
The Company's net assets at June 30, 1997, were comprised of the following
elements:
Common stock ($5.00 par value) and additional paid-in
capital; 300,000 shares authorized, 164,683 shares
issued and outstanding $ 22,158,555
Accumulated undistributed income:
Undistributed net investment income 1,209,514
Undistributed net realized capital gain (loss) (note1) 16,877
Unrealized gains of $106,627,274 and unrealized losses of
$184,249, less deferred federal income tax of $13,004,767 93,438,258
Net assets at June 30, 1997 $116,823,204
Note 3 - Investments
Following is a summary of securities sold during the six months ended
June 30, 1997:
Proceeds from
Sales and Net Gain
Maturities Cost (Loss)
Money market funds $3,180,648 3,180,648 -
Common shares 234,164 242,554 (8,390)

Bonds and notes 306,000 300,000 6,000
Totals $5,720,812 5,723,202 (2,390)
Federal income tax:
Refund of 1996 built-in gains deposit 19,267
Net realized capital gain (loss) $ 16,877
The federal income tax is computed at a rate of 35% on the built-in
unrealized gains which existed at January 1, 1989 (the effective date of the
Company's election to be taxed as a regulated investment company-note 1) and
which were realized during the six month period ended June 30, 1997. There
were no net built-in gains realized during the six months ended June 30,
1997. As discussed in Note 1, the Company requests a refund from the IRS of
built-in gain tax deposits made. In July, 1997, the Company received from
the Internal Revenue Service a notice of refund of taxes paid in 1996 of
$19,267. This refund is recorded as a receivable to the Company as of
June 30, 1997.
The aggregate cost of securities acquired during the six months ended June
30, 1997, was as follows:
Money market funds $3,820,611
Common shares 150,938
U.S. government securities -
Bonds and notes 2,051,040
Total purchase of securities $6,022,589
Note 4 - Investment in Affiliated Issuer
The Company is an affiliated company, as defined in Section 2(a)(2) and
2(a)(3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, with respect to its investment
in Arnold Industries, Inc. The Company and affiliated persons owned more
than five percent of the voting common stock of Arnold Industries, Inc., at
June, 30, 1997.
Note 5 - Expenses
The Company shares personnel and office facilities with two entities
considered to be related parties as defined by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 57, "Related Party Disclosures". One of the related
parties is a private partnership of which certain officers and directors of
the Company are partners. The other related party, which there are no direct
transactions, is a not-for-profit charitable foundation of which certain
officers and directors are also officers and directors of the Company.
Certain costs are allocated among the three entities based on actual usage or
management's estimate of use if actual usage cannot be determined precisely.
Certain office equipment, primarily computer and telecommunications
equipment, used by the Company is owned by the related private partnership.
The Company annually enters into a one-year operating lease with the related
party. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, totaled $11,970. However,
the lease was subsequently amended due to a revised evaluation of the fair
market value of the leased equipment, in which it was determined that the
lease payments for the six months ended June 30, 1997 should have totaled
$5,009. Accordingly, effective July 1, 1997, the Company recorded a
receivable in the amount of $6,961 that will be reimbursed to the Company by
the related party. At June 30, 1997, the future minimum lease payments
required by the amended leases are $5,009 in 1997. A portion of the lease
amount is attributable to certain equipment purchased by the private
partnership related party from a vendor that may be considered a related
party.
The related private partnership purchased office supplies and similar items
used by the Company. On a monthly basis, the Company reimburses the related
party for its allocated share of the office supplies. For the six months
ended June 30, 1997, expenses reimbursed to the related party totaled
$14,006. This total included approximately $268 that was reimbursed to the
private partnership for a vendor that may also be considered a related party.
In addition to these expenses, for the six months ended June 30, 1997, the
Company incurred other expenses totaling $180 to a vendor that may be
considered a related party.
(Continued)
Note 6- Retirement Plan
Effective January 1, 1992, the Company began sponsoring a money purchase
pension plan which covers all employees of the Company who have met certain
service requirements. Annually, the Company must contribute to the Plan an
amount equal to five percent of each participant's compensation. Pension
expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 was $3,208 and
$3,222, respectively.
Note 7- Line of Credit
The Company has an unsecured line of credit for short-term bank borrowings of
up to $5 million, with interest computed at the bank's prime rate. The line
of credit expires on July 1, 1998. At June 30, 1997, the entire line of
credit was unused.
Note 8 - Rent Commitment
In March 1993, the Company entered into a five-year operating lease for
office space. At June 30, 1997, the future minimum rental payments required
by the lease are as follows:
