NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
LEAK-X ENVIRONMENTAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
(UNAUDITED)
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
of Leak-X Environmental Corporation (the "Company") have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1996
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ending December 31, 1996. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the year ended December 31, 1995.
Per share data for the periods are based upon the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during such periods,
plus net additional shares issued upon exercise of options and
warrants. Outstanding options and warrants have not been included
in the computation of per share data in the quarter ended March 31,
1996 or the quarter ended March 31, 1995 as they would be
immaterial or anti-dilutive, respectively.
Note 2. Financial Matters
Total interest expense for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and March 31, 1995 was $14,184 and $595, respectively.
Note 3. Discontinued Operations
Net assets of discontinued operations at March 31, 1996
consist of accounts receivable of $528,107. Net liabilities of
discontinued operations at March 31, 1996 include accounts payable
and accrued expenses of $346,314 and $165,823, respectively.
Note 4. Line of Credit
On March 29, 1996, the Company received a waiver from its
financial institution with respect to certain covenants of its
Revolving Credit Agreement. The waiver extends for the balance of
the term of the agreement, July 1, 1996.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
Results of Operations
Quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to the Quarter ended March
31, 1995
Net revenue increased 131% to $1,816,738 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 (the "1996 Quarter") compared to $786,364 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995 (the "1995 Quarter"). The increase in
revenues is attributable to a 59% increase in environmental
consulting services and the addition of the Company's groundwater
remediation business which the Company acquired in September 1995.
The Company had a lower gross margin of 21% for the 1996
Quarter as compared to a gross margin of 38% in the 1995 Quarter.
The lower gross margin is primarily attributable to the low gross
margin from the Company's groundwater remediation business which
was adversely affected by a decline in sales volume.
The Company reported a loss of $287,549 in the 1996 Quarter as
compared to income of $25,262 in the 1995 Quarter. The loss in the
1996 Quarter is primarily due to higher selling, general and
administrative ("SG&A") expenses, a lower gross margin and lower
sales in the groundwater remediation business in the 1996 Quarter.
Even though the Company's environmental consulting business
attained its highest first quarter sales volume in its
six year history, revenues for groundwater remediation services
were lower than anticipated for the 1996 Quarter primarily
attributable to delays in receipt of anticipated equipment orders.
These delays were, in part, a result of proposed changes that are
being considered by environmental regulators that would require a
longer "up-front" evaluation of sites where remediation may be
required. Accordingly, potential customers of the groundwater
remediation services are postponing purchases until the proposed
changes are more fully defined by environmental regulators.
The Company's groundwater remediation business, which was not
included in the 1995 Quarter since the business was acquired in
late 1995, accounted for approximately $333,120 of SG&A expenses
(or 87% of the increase in SG&A). Excluding the expenses
attributable to the groundwater remediation business, SG&A expenses
were actually proportionately less as a percentage of sales, 26% in
the 1996 Quarter as compared to 36% in the 1995 Quarter. This is
primarily attributable to the increased sales which required no
increase in SG&A expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company generated $104,375 in cash from operating
activities in the 1996 Quarter as compared to utilizing $306,266 in
the 1995 Quarter. The primary change in the generation of cash
from operating activities was a $707,429 decrease in accounts
receivable in the 1996 Quarter as compared to a $78,031 increase in
the 1995 Quarter. Accounts payable was reduced in the 1996 Quarter
by $421,360.
Net cash used by investing activities in the 1996 Quarter was
$16,554 as compared to $8,478 net cash used in the 1995 Quarter.
Capital expenditures were primarily for computers.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $27,837 in the
1996 Quarter as compared to no financing activities in the 1995
Quarter. In the 1996 Quarter, the Company completed the private
placement of its common stock which commenced in December 1995
which resulted in cash of $140,506. In addition, the Company paid
down $100,000 on its line of credit and $12,669 on its long-term
debt.
The Company's working capital decreased 45% at March 31, 1996
to $341,276 as compared to $623,884 at December 31, 1995. The
change in working capital was primarily the result of the decrease
in accounts receivable, inventory and proceeds from the private
placement. The Company utilized working capital funds to manage
accounts payable and to fund ongoing operations.
Backlog at March 31, 1996 was approximately $5,600,000 as
compared to approximately $5,000,000 at December 31, 1995. Backlog
in the 1996 Quarter increased as compared to December 31, 1995 due
to an increase in booking of new contracts scheduled to commence in
Fiscal 1996. The Company believes that all of the current backlog
will be completed in 1996, although, no assurance of this can be
given. Much of the Company's backlog is subject to termination at
will and rescheduling without significant penalty.
On March 29, 1996, the Company received a waiver through July
1, 1996 with respect to failure to meet some of the terms of the
financial covenants of its Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Credit
Agreement") at December 31, 1995. The Company is no longer in
default of any covenants of the Credit Agreement at March 31, 1996.
The Company had $400,000 of available borrowing at March 31, 1996.
The Company deems its present facilities and equipment
adequate for its immediate needs and it has no material commitments
for capital expenditures. The Company believes its present
liquidity and cash flow are adequate for its current needs. There
can be no assurance, however, that additional financing, whether
from debt or equity, will be available to the Company when needed
on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
The Company's management believes that inflation has not had
a significant impact on its business during the past three years.
The statements contained herein include forward looking
statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In
addition to the facts discussed, among the other factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially are the following:
business conditions and growth in the industry and general economy;
competitive factors, such as rival designs and prices; inventory
risks due to shifts in market demand; changes in sales mix; and the
risk factors listed from time to time in the Company's SEC reports.
