NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The financial information included herein is unaudited. In addition, the
financial information does not include all disclosures required under
generally accepted accounting principles because certain note information
included in the Company's annual report has been omitted; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the interim period.
The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are
not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
Note 2 - Litigation
During the second quarter of 1995, the Company recognized a provision of
$2,600,000 ($1,573,000 or $0.45 per share after tax) for a damage award of
$955,000 (plus estimated interest and legal costs) affirmed by a Michigan
State Appellate Court. The litigation involved a former executive's claim
of breach of contract in connection with his discharge by the Company in
1986.
Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS:
Results of Operations
Net sales increased 33.6% for the first six months of 1996 compared to the
same period in 1995. Net sales increased 32.7% for the second quarter of 1996
compared to the same period in 1995. These sales increases are due
principally to 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 2.2%.
Cost of goods sold increased 30.7% during the first six months of 1996
compared to the same period in 1995. Gross margins improved in 1996 compared
to 1995 primarily a result of the change in sales mix between sales made by
the Company's distribution centers versus its jobber stores, the sales of
which are at higher gross profit margins. Selling, general and administrative
expenses increased by 38.5% for the first six months in 1996 compared to the
same period in 1995 due principally to the inclusion of expenses from the
aforementioned acquisitions and the opening in 1996 of additional distribution
centers by the Company's subsidiary, Fenders & More, Inc..
Interest expense increased 47.4% for the first six months of 1996 compared to
the same period in 1995 due to increased debt levels resulting from
acquisitions and higher interest rates. The results for the first six months
of 1995 include a charge related to an adverse decision during the second
quarter in an appeal of an earlier litigation verdict (see Note 2 above).
<PAGE>
As a result of the above actions, income before income taxes increased by
$2,165,000 for the first six months of 1996 over the same period last year.
Earnings of $0.67 cents per share were reported for the first six months of
1996 compared to $0.07 per share for the same period in 1995.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 3.5 at
June 30, 1996 compared to 3.2 at December 31, 1995. Working capital at June
30, 1996 was $56,377,000 compared with $51,741,000 at December 31, 1995. Cash
increased by $970,000 from $2,798,000 at December 31, 1995 to $3,768,000 at
June 30, 1996.
Operating activities provided $1,593,000 of the Company's cash flows during
the first six months of 1996 compared to operating activities providing
$120,000 of cash flows for the same period in 1995. Investing activities
used $1,560,000 of the Company's cash flows during the first six months of
1996 compared to $606,000 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 locations. The Company opened its
eleventh Fenders & More, Inc. distribution center near Birmingham, Alabama
in April, 1996. Two additional distribution centers at this subsidiary
company are expected to be opened before the end of the third quarter.
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 $937,000 of the Company's cash flows during
the first six months of 1996 compared to $813,000 for the same period in 1995.
At June 30, 1996, the company had available cash resources of $35,000,000
under its revolving bank credit facility of which $30,100,000 was being
utilized.
Current financial resources (expected cash from operations, working capital
and short-term borrowing) available to the Company are expected to be
adequate to meet future cash requirements for capital expenditures and
anticipated debt reductions which are payable over the next several years
for various notes made in connection with acquisitions.
