NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do
not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation
of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of
management all adjustments necessary to a fair statement of operations of
the interim period have been made. These adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995
are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS:
Results of Operations
Net sales increased 34.6% for the first three months of 1996 compared to the
same period in 1995. These sales increases are due principally to the
inclusion of sales from acquisitions made in July 1995 (one distribution
center and twenty-three jobber stores) and August 1995 (three distribution
centers). Sales for units owned continuously during 1996 and 1995 increased
4.1%. Cost of goods sold increased 33.4% in conjunction with the increase
in net sales. The overall increase in cost of goods sold was primarily a
result of the acquisitions described above.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 35.8% for the
first three months in 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 due principally
to the above described acquisitions. Operating income increased 43.7% for
the first three months in 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.
Interest expense in 1996 increased 57.4% from the prior year due to higher
debt levels resulting from acquisitions and higher interest rates. As a
result of the above actions, income before income taxes increased by $365,000
for the first three months of 1996 over the same period last year. Earnings
of $0.23 cents per share were reported for the first three months of 1996
compared to $0.18 per share for the same period in 1995.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 3.3 at the
end of the first quarter of 1996 compared to 3.2 at December 31, 1995.
Working capital at March 31, 1996 was $54,026,000 compared with $51,741,000
at December 31, 1995. Cash increased by $872,000 from $2,798,000 at
December 31, 1995 to $3,670,000 at March 31, 1996.
<PAGE> Page 6
Operating activities provided $1,425,000 of the Company's cash flows during
the first three months of 1996 compared to operating activities using
$2,189,000 of cash flows for the same period in 1995. Investing activities
used $728,000 of the Company's cash flows during the first three months of
1996 compared to $318,000 for the same period in 1995. Normal replacement
of equipment including additional delivery trucks to support increased sales
by Fenders & More, Inc. accounted for most of the increase in cash flows used
by investing activities.
The Company anticipates future growth through possible acquisitions and
openings of new distribution and jobber store locations. Three new
distribution centers for Fenders & More, Inc., the Company's distributor of
automotive crash parts, are scheduled to be opened in the second and third
quarters of 1996. Although no other definitive agreements have been reached,
it is expected that cash generated from operations, other changes in working
capital and existing credit facilities will be sufficient to support cash
outlays for anticipated acquisitions and openings, if any.
Financing activities provided $175,000 of the Company's cash flows during
the first three months of 1996 compared to $1,668,000 for the same period in
1995. At March 31, 1996, the company had available cash resources of
$35,000,000 under its revolving bank credit facility of which $29,300,000 was
being utilized.
Current financial resources (expected cash from operations, working capital
and short-term borrowings) available to the Company are expected to be
adequate to meet future cash requirements for capital expenditures and
anticipated debt reduction which are payable over the next several years for
various notes made in connection with acquisitions.
