SENECA FOODS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 1994
1. Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal
and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Registrant as of April 30, 1994 and July 31, 1993 and
results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended April 30,
1994 and May 1, 1993. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The July 31, 1993 balance
sheet was derived from audited financial statements.
The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended April
30, 1994 and May 1, 1993 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.
The accounting policies followed by the Registrant are set forth in Note 1
to the Registrant's financial statements in the 1993 Seneca Foods
Corporation Annual Report and 10-K.
Other footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes included in the Registrant's July 31, 1993 financial
report.
2. Primary earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding, as the effect of common stock equivalents is
immaterial. The difference between primary and fully diluted earnings per
share is immaterial.
3. Off-Season Reserve is the excess of absorbed expenses over incurred
expenses to date. The seasonal nature of the Registrant's business results
in a timing difference between expenses (primarily overhead expenses)
incurred and absorbed into product cost. All Off-Season Reserve balances
are zero at fiscal year end.
4. The Registrant's investment in the common stock of Moog Inc. is carried at
the lower of aggregate cost or market. The market value of these
securities was $6,903,000 as of April 30, 1994. There were no realized
gains or losses during the periods presented. Unrealized gains were
$824,000 at April 30, 1994. The Registrant has the ability and intent to
hold these securities for the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
April 30, 1994
5. As reported on a January 1994 8-K, the Registrant acquired certain assets
of ERLY Juice, Inc. and WorldMark, Inc.(citrus juice business) which
totalled $8,372,000; and Sanofi-Bio Industries, Inc. (industrial juice
business) which totalled $3,298,000.
6. The Registrant adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," effective August 1, 1993. The Statement
supersedes A.P.B. No. 11 and SFAS No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which was not adopted by the Registrant. SFAS #109 uses the liability
method of accounting for income taxes where deferred liabilities and assets
are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and
tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for
the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The cumulative
effect of adopting SFAS No. 109 on the Registrant's financial statements
was to increase earnings by $2,006,000 ($.68 per share).
The primary components of temporary differences that give rise to the
Registrant's net deferred tax liability, as of August 1, 1993, are as
follows:
Deferred Tax Assets:
Accrued Expenses $2,373
Pension 238
Other 42
Valuation Allowance -
-----
Total Deferred Tax Assets 2,653
Deferred Tax Liabilities:
Property, Plant, and Equipment (excess
of book basis over tax basis) 11,356
Inventories 231
------
Total Deferred Liabilities 11,587
------
Net Deferred Tax Liability $8,934
======
The Registrant believes that the components of the provision for income taxes
and actual effective rate reconciliation will not vary significantly from that
previously reported.
The provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended April 30,
1993 is included in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income as
previously presented.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
April 30, 1994
Results of Operations:
Sales:
Sales reflect an increase of 15.5% for the first nine months versus 1993. The
higher sales, in large part, are due to higher canned vegetables selling prices
and quantities sold than the previous periods and the Citrus Juice Business
acquisition (see footnotes for details).
Costs and Expenses:
The following table shows cost and expenses as a percentage of sales:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended
4/30/94 5/1/93 4/30/94 5/1/93
Cost of Product Sold 85.5% 90.5% 85.6% 87.9%
Selling 6.7 6.7 6.8 6.9
Administrative 2.6 3.4 3.3 3.4
Interest Expense 1.8 0.1 2.0 2.1
---- ----- ---- -----
96.6% 100.7% 97.7% 100.3%
Lower Cost of Product Sold percentages (i.e. higher Gross Margins) reflect, in
part, higher selling prices for vegetable products than in the prior year due
to the floods in the Midwest. Administrative percent of sales is down mostly
due to 22% higher sales in the quarter than last year. Interest Expense is
lower last year due to Interest Income received from an IRS settlement during
the quarter in the prior year.
Income Taxes:
The effective tax rate used in fiscal 1994 is 38% and in fiscal 1993 it is 63%.
1993 is higher than 1994 because of the 1993 loss from continuing operations.
The Registrant adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes", effective August 1, 1993. See footnotes for
details.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
April 30, 1994
Financial Condition:
The financial condition of the Registrant is summarized in the following table
and explanatory review (In Thousands):
For the Quarter For the Year
Ended April Ended July
1994 1993 1993 1992
Working Capital Balance $78,120 $82,088 $84,410 $76,650
Quarter Change (282) 2,433 - -
Notes Payable - 4,100 - -
Long-Term Debt and Leases 68,419 75,133 71,534 75,967
Current Ratio 2.72:1 3.27:1 3.20:1 2.78:1
Inventory (Average) Turnover 3.0 1.8 2.8 2.9
The change in the Working Capital for the quarter from the prior year is
largely due to the capital expenditures and common stock retirements in the
current year with substantially less of these items in the prior year. Notes
Payable is $24.4 million less than the prior period due to lower inventory
which was caused by lower packs in the Midwest due to the wet conditions and
due to the higher sales of vegetables. See Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows for further details.
