MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
The Company produces and markets a wide range of branded food products
primarily to the retail grocery and food service industries. The Company
also markets its products through direct mail and its own retail outlets.
Management does not consider the Company's business to be highly seasonal
due to its diverse lines of products; however, three of its units record
disproportionate pre-Christmas sales, making the Company's third quarter
sales and income the highest of the fiscal year.
Results of Operations
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1995 were $8,216,599 compared
to $7,775,774 for the three months ended June 30, 1994. The increase in
sales is attributed to an increase in demand of many branded products sold
to the retail grocery trade. This increase in demand was due to an increase
in marketing and promotional expenditures as a result of improved margins.
Gross profit increased to 38.3% for the three months ended June 30, 1995
compared to 34.6% for the three months ended June 30, 1994. The higher
margins were due to favorable beef and pork prices compared to the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 16.7% during the
three months ended June 30, 1995 compared to the prior year. Selling
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 21.6% for the three months ended
June 30, 1995 compared to 18.0% for the same period during 1994. As
mentioned above, the increase in marketing and promotional expenditures
was to help increase sales and expand market share. The increase in
general and administrative expenses was less than 3% during 1995 compared to
1994.
The decrease in net interest expense from $46,046 for the three months ended
June 30, 1994 to $18,507 for the three months ended June 30, 1995 was due to
a decrease in average debt outstanding from approximately $3 million in 1994
to slightly above $1 million in 1995. The decrease was somewhat offset by
increased interest rates in 1995. The Company's average interest rate during
the three months ended June 30, 1995 was slightly below 7.0% compared to
5.5% during 1994.
THE SMITHFIELD COMPANIES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--Continued
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On June 8, 1995, the Company signed a definitive agreement to sell the
assets of its Bunker Hill division for approximately $12,925,000. The
Company will recognize an after-tax gain of approximately $1,700,000 upon
the completion of the sale which is expected to be completed during the
second quarter. The Company is expecting its net proceeds to be
approximately $10.6 million. After repaying its outstanding revolving
credit loan the Company is expecting to have approximately $9.0 million
in available funds.
If the assets of Bunker Hill are sold, the Company intends to invest its
available funds in short-term securities. The Company will continue its
strategy of looking for growth through acquisitions in higher margin
segments of the food industry. Having a significant amount of cash on hand
as well as available funds on its line of credit, the Company believes it
is in an excellent position to invest in assets which will increase
shareholder value over time.
The Company does believe the sale of Bunker Hill will have a negative
impact on quarterly income in the short-term, but believes it will have
a positive effect as the Company transfers assets into higher growth
segments of the food industry through acquisitions.
The Company's current cash flow and available funds on its credit line
are sufficient to satisfy its existing cash requirements.
The Company's revolving credit loan had an outstanding balance of
$2,300,000 at June 30, 1995 and $1,000,000 at March 31, 1995. As of
June 30, 1995, the Company still had $7.7 million available on its
revolving credit loan.
The Company traditionally increases inventory during the first six months
of its fiscal year to meet the increased demand for its products during the
Christmas season. The Company believes it has sufficient resources to meet
all of its increased demand associated with the Christmas season.
