Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Results of Operations - Three Months ended September 30, 1995 compared to Three
Months ended September 30, 1994.
Interest and dividend income increased to $16,522 in the three months
ended September 30, 1995 from $12,568 in the three months ended September 30,
1994. This increase is a result of increasing rates of interest earned on
available cash investments during the three months ended September 30, 1995 as
compared to the three months ended September 30, 1994.
Farm rental revenues decreased slightly to $2,736 in the three months
ended September 30, 1995 from $2,964 in the three months ended September 30,
1994 due to a $5/acre rent concession in the Schleman Farm Lease given in
consideration of the uncertainty of crop yields due to abnormally inclement
weather. Farm related operating costs and expenses increased slightly to $483
from $382 due to cost increases in the market place.
General and administrative expenses increased to $30,161 in the three
months ended September 30, 1995 from $13,013 in the three months ended September
30, 1994. This increase is primarily the result of a change in the annual
meeting date (which caused expenses of such meeting to be recognized in an
earlier quarter) and increased legal fees.
As a result of the above items, the Company incurred a loss before
provision for income taxes of $11,745 in the three months ended September 30,
1995 as compared to a gain before provision for income taxes of $2,137 in the
comparable period a year ago.
Federal and state income tax benefits of $1,173 were applicable in the
three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to federal and state income
tax expenses of $443 in the three months ended September 30, 1994.
Results of Operations - Six months ended September 30, 1995, compared to six
months ended September 30, 1994.
Interest and dividend income increased to $33,709 in the six months
ended September 30, 1995, from $22,981 in the same period ended September 30,
1994. This increase is a result of increasing rates of interest earned on
available cash investments.
Farm rental revenues are less in the current six month period ended
September 30, 1995 as compared to the six month period ended September 30, 1994
due to a $5/acre rent concession in the Schleman Farm Lease given in
consideration of the uncertainty of crop yields due to abnormally inclement
weather. Farm related operating costs and expenses are comparable for the six
months ended September 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994.
General and administrative expenses increased to $51,369 in the six
months ended September 30, 1995 from $32,818 in the six months ended September
30, 1994. This increase is primarily the result of a change in the annual
meeting date (which caused expenses of such meeting to be recognized in an
earlier quarter) and increased legal fees.
As a result of the above items the Company incurred a loss before
provision for income taxes of $13,693 in the six months ended September 30, 1995
as compared to a loss before provision for income taxes of $4,766 in the
comparable period a year ago.
Federal and state income tax benefits of $1,703 were applicable in the
six months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to federal and state income
benefits of $491 that were applicable in the six months ended September 30,
1994.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1995, the Company had net working capital of
$1,253,464 the major portion of which was in cash and cash equivalents. St.
Lawrence has sufficient capital resources to continue its current business
activities.
The Company is currently conducting a program of exploring varied
acquisition opportunities and may require the use of its assets for a purchase
or partial payment for an acquisition or other opportunity. In addition, it may
become necessary for St. Lawrence to incur debt of an undetermined amount to
effect a purchase or merger. The Company may also issue shares of its Common
Stock to effect an acquisition or merger
St. Lawrence does not have a formal arrangement with any bank or
financial institution with respect to the availability of financing in the
future.
