GREAT PINES WATER COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Great Pines Water Company, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in November
1986 and is engaged in the bottling, distributing and sale of bottled
drinking, purified, and spring water and rental of related dispensing
equipment under the "Texas Premium Waters" proprietary brand name.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for complete financial statements.
The accompanying financial statements include all adjustments which in the
opinion of management are necessary in order to make the financial statements
not be misleading.
The accompanying condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Audited Financial Statements for the Year Ended December 31, 1997
and the notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997.
The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 1998,
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
NOTE B - STOCK OPTION PLANS
The Company's Option Plan ("Option Plan") was adopted in 1993. An aggregate
of 225,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the
Option Plan. The Option Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or a
stock option committee established by the Board of Directors (the "Plan
Administrator"). The Plan Administrator determines, subject to the
provisions of the Option Plan, the employees to whom options are granted and
the number of options to be granted. The Plan Administrator may grant (i)
"incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, and (ii) "non-qualified stock options" (options which
do not meet the requirements of Section 422). Incentive stock options
granted under the Option Plan must have an exercise price equal to at least
the fair market value of the common stock at the date the option is granted.
Each option granted under the Option Plan may have a term of up to ten years,
except that incentive stock options granted to a shareholder who, at the time
of grant, owns more than 10% of the voting stock of the Company may have a
term of up to five years. The exercise price of incentive stock options
granted to shareholders possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock of the Company must be not less than 110% of
the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. As
of March 31, 1998, stock options to acquire 197,350 shares of the Company's
common stock have been granted under the Option Plan at exercise prices of
$2.00 to $2.20 per share. The options are exercisable beginning March 28,
1995 through December 28, 1999. As of March 31, 1998, 160,000 of these
options are exercisable and 31,150 options had been exercised.
The Company's Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan ("Non-Employee Director
Plan") was also adopted in 1993. An aggregate of 25,000 shares of common
stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to the Non-Employee Director Plan.
Options to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock are automatically granted to
each person elected for the first time as director of the Company, who is not
an employee of the Company. An option to acquire an additional 1,000 shares
is automatically granted each year thereafter that such director is
re-elected. Options granted under the Non-Employee Director Plan will not
qualify as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Options granted under the Non-Employee
Director Plan expire ten years after date of grant. As of March 31, 1998,
14,000 options have been granted under the Non-Employee Director Plan at
exercise prices of $2.00 to $5.75 per share. As of March 31, 1998, 12,000
of these options are exercisable and no options had been exercised.
The Company's Incentive Stock Plan ("Incentive Plan") was adopted in 1995.
An aggregate of 500,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance
pursuant to the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan is administered by the
Board of Directors. The Board of Directors determines, subject to the
provisions of the Incentive Plan, the employees to whom incentives are
awarded. The Board of Directors may award (i) "incentive stock options"
within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (ii)
"non-qualified stock options" (options which do not meet the
4
<PAGE>
requirements of Section 422), (iii) shares of "restricted stock", and (iv)
"stock bonuses". Subject to the terms of the Incentive Plan, the Board of
Directors will also determine the prices, expiration dates and other material
features of the incentive awards. As of March 31, 1998, 66,362 shares of
common stock were issued under the Incentive Plan to consultants and in
settlement of lawsuits, and 5,934 shares of common stock were issued under
the Incentive Plan to employees as a stock bonuses. As of March 31, 1998,
stock options to acquire 65,833 shares of the Company's common stock have
been granted under the Incentive Plan at exercise prices of $5.00 to $7.375
per share. The options are exercisable beginning April 23, 1997 through March
10, 2000. As of March 31, 1998, 31,667 of these options are exercisable and
4,166 options had been exercised.
NOTE C - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
In January 1998, the Company issued 744 shares of common stock to an
employee under the Company's 1995 Incentive Stock Plan for a stock bonus.
Costs of $3,600 were expensed as wages.
In March 1998, the Company issued 2,014 shares of common stock to employees
under the Company's 1995 Incentive Stock Plan for stock bonuses. Costs of
$7,800 were expensed as wages.
In March 1998, the Company issued 600 shares of common stock to an employee
under the Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan for exercised vested options.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors which have affected the Company's financial position and operating
results during the periods included in the accompanying condensed financial
statements.
GENERAL
The Company's revenues consist of sales of the Company's bottled water
products, rental of water dispensers and sales of cups and other
miscellaneous items. The Company's strategy has been to use all available
capital for expansion and increasing its customer base. The growth in
customer accounts has been accompanied by increased revenues. The Company
attributes the growth in customer accounts to aggressive marketing, increased
bottled water consumption, a change in the type of closed water system and an
effective customer retention program. The Company anticipates that its
customer base and revenues will continue to expand as sales of bottled water
increase and the Company continues to penetrate the Houston and Dallas/Fort
Worth bottled water markets. Some of the factors that the Company believes
may affect the rate of increase in bottled water sales include the public
perception of the quality of municipal supplies and general health concerns.
Commissions and other selling costs comprise the largest controllable
component of expenses. Selling expenses consist primarily of commissions
paid to the sales force and telemarketing expenses. Commissions paid are
expensed as they are incurred. Commissions represent a higher percentage of
total expenses during periods when the Company is adding accounts at an
accelerated rate when compared to other expenses, which are not as variable.
Transportation expenses include lease expense, fuel, insurance, and repair
and maintenance expenses associated with the delivery trucks and vans.
Depreciation and amortization and operating expenses consist of depreciation
of the Company's delivery trucks and vans, water dispensers and bottles and
the bottling plants. Depreciation and amortization are expected to increase
as the Company continues to commit resources to its growing customer base.
General and administrative expenses include centralized administration and
support costs.
The Company currently provides an estimate of the cost of dispensers which
are lost or stolen as a reduction of fixed assets.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997
Revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 1998 (the "First Quarter
of 1998") increased 10% to $2,043,000 from $1,857,000 for the three month
period ended March 31, 1997 (the "First Quarter of 1997"). The principal
reason for the increase in revenues was the increase in the number of
customer accounts from the First Quarter of 1997 to the First Quarter of 1998.
Operating costs increased 1%, as a percentage of sales, to 19% or $385,000 in
the First Quarter of 1998 from 20% or $369,000 in the First Quarter of 1997.
This is primarily due to an increase in plant employee wages.
Transportation costs decreased less than 1%, as a percentage of sales, to 24%
or $500,000 in the First Quarter of 1998 from 25% or $462,000 in the First
Quarter of 1997. The decrease in transportation expenses is primarily due to
a decrease in repair and maintenance expenses.
Depreciation and amortization costs decreased, as a percentage of sales, to
12% or $247,000 in the First Quarter of 1998 from 14% or $269,000 in the
First Quarter of 1997. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in
sales, by certain fixed assets of the Company becoming fully depreciated for
book purposes during 1997, and by the estimated useful life of coolers being
extended from ten to twelve years during 1997.
Commissions and other selling costs decreased, as a percentage of sales, to
16% or $325,000 in the First Quarter of 1998 from 17% or $320,000 in the
First Quarter of 1997. Management's policy is to use all available cash from
operations and financing activities after debt service for its marketing
activities. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction of telemarketing
expenses, partially offset by an increase in outside sales expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased, as a percentage of sales, to
27% or $544,000 in the First Quarter of 1998 from 26% or $488,000 in the
First Quarter of 1997. This is primarily due to an increase in executive
compensation.
Interest expense remained the same, as a percentage of sales, at 5% or
$102,000 in the First Quarter of 1998 from 5% or $86,000 in the First Quarter
of 1997. This is primarily due to additions of long term debt during 1997,
partially offset by an increase in sales.
The Company reported a loss after income taxes of $59,000 in the First
Quarter of 1998 compared to a loss after taxes of $137,000 in the First
Quarter of 1997. The decrease in the loss was caused by increased revenues
and improved operating efficiencies.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has typically financed operations from a combination of vendor
financing, bank loans and leases, placement of securities and cash generated
from operations. The Company acquires water coolers and cooler equipment
through vendor financing. The Company leases water processing and bottling
plants and various trucks from financial institutions under capital lease
arrangements. Additional trucks and equipment are obtained under operating
leases.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended
March 31, 1998 and the three month period ended March 31, 1997 was $266,000
and $286,000 respectively. The decrease is primarily due to reduction of
customer deposits, partially offset by a reduction in accounts receivable.
During the three month period ended March 31, 1998, the Company made capital
expenditures of $26,000 for plant equipment, water bottles and truck
improvements.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company's long-term debt amounted to $144,000 in
bank debt, $3,142,000 in vendor financing and $333,000 in convertible
subordinated debt. The Company has capital lease commitments of $50,000.
6
<PAGE>
Management's strategy is based on increasing the Company's value by
increasing the customer base. Because the Company records Commissions and
other selling costs associated with the implementation of its growth strategy
in the period in which such expenses are incurred, the Company's net income
will initially decrease for a period in which the Company experiences rapid
growth. Despite the short-term effect of growth on net income, the Company
believes that its strategy of increasing the size of its customer base will
enhance shareholder value and improve the financial performance of the
Company. The Company will not be able to expand significantly or enter into
new markets until additional funding is acquired. There can be no assurance
that such arrangements will become available on terms acceptable to the
Company.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the
ordinary course of its business. Management believes, based on discussions
with its legal counsel that the outcome of these legal actions will not have
a material adverse effect upon the financial position and results of
operations of the Company.
The Company filed suit against Liqui-Box Corporation ("Liqui-Box") on July
18, 1994 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
Texas. In the lawsuit, the Company alleged that Liqui-Box sold a defective
water system, which, in turn, the Company leased to its bottled water
customers. The Company sought monetary damages, including lost customers, the
cost of replacing defective equipment, treble damages under the Texas
Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and attorney's fees. During February 1997, the
case went to trial and a jury verdict was reached. Damages of approximately
$2.3 million were awarded to the Company. The amount is subject to appeal
and there can be no assurance that the Company will recover damages in this,
or any amount. Through March 31, 1998, the Company has not recorded any
amounts in the financial statements related to these damages. Liqui-Box
Corporation had net sales of $152.4 million for the year ended December 28,
1996. It is publicly traded under the ticker symbol LIQB.
