SENECA FOODS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2000
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 Company as of September 30, 2000 and results of
operations for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2000
and October 2, 1999. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The March 31, 2000
balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements.
The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended
September 30, 2000 and October 2, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.
The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1
to the Company's financial statements in the 2000 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 Company's 2000 Annual Report and
10-K.
2. Off-Season Reserve is the excess of absorbed expenses over incurred
expenses to date. The seasonal nature of the Company's Food Processing
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.
3. Comprehensive income consisted solely of Net Earnings and Net Unrealized
Gain Change on Moog, Inc. Stock. The following table provides the results
for the periods presented:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
September 30, 2000
Financial Condition:
The financial condition of the Company is summarized in the following table and
explanatory review (In Thousands):

Current Ratio 1.71:1 2.05:1 3.05:1 3.98:1
</TABLE>
The change in the Working Capital for the September 2000 quarter from the
September 1999 quarter is largely due to higher earnings in the current year
quarter than the prior year quarter ($2,053,000 as compared to $325,000 last
year). For the six months, capital expenditures were $11.8 million in 2000 as
compared to $7.6 million in 1999. In the first six months of 2000, $3.4 million
of these capital expenditures were funded via a capital escrow account, which
was a result of an Industrial Revenue Bond issued last year.
See Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for further details.
