MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company is a Delaware corporation organized in
1986. The Company is the leading manufacturer and distributor of
underground systems and products for the conveyance and
containment of petroleum and alcohol based motor vehicle fuels
from underground storage tanks to aboveground fuel dispensers.
The principal end users of the Company's products are service
stations, convenience stores and other retail sellers of
gasoline, gasohol and other motor vehicle fuels, government
bodies, utilities, and other fleet vehicle operators.
Net Sales
The Company's net sales for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, were $11.6 million and $28.5 million,
respectively, as compared to $11.2 million and $29.6 million for
the corresponding periods in 1995. Net sales increased 4.3%
during the quarter and decreased 3.5% for the first nine months
of 1996 as compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal
year. The increase in sales for the quarter was primarily
attributable to the acquisition of American Containment as well
as an increase in sales of Enviroflex piping systems in South
East Asia. This was partially offset by a decrease in sales of
all products in the North American market due to recent high
levels of retail fuel prices and profits which delayed the
upgrading of existing sites. The decrease for the nine months
was mainly due to the reduction in sales of all products in North
America caused by, among others, inclement weather and retail
fuel pricing.
Gross Profit
The primary component of the Company's cost of sales is
the product manufacturing costs paid to various third party
manufacturers. Other components are the variable and fixed costs
of operating the Company's warehouses and manufacturing
facilities, depreciation of molds, tools and equipment, warranty
expense and limited assembly costs. The Company's gross profit
for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1996, was
$4.2 million and $10.4 million, respectively, as compared to $4.5
and $7.2 million for the corresponding period in 1995. Gross
profit decreased 8.3% during the quarter and increased 45.5% for
the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the same periods in
the previous fiscal year. The decrease in gross profit for the
quarter resulted primarily from an increase in the percentage of
sales accrued for warranty purposes as well as an increase in the
cost of certain purchased items. The increase in gross profit
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was due to a $5
million charge to earnings to increase the company's warranty
reserve in the second quarter of 1995. This was partially offset
by an increase in the percentage of sales accrued for warranty
purposes as well as an increase in the cost of certain components
of cost of goods sold.
The Company's gross profit percentage was 35.9% for the
quarter and 36.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996,
as compared to 40.8% and 24.2% for the same periods in the
previous fiscal year. The Company's gross profit percentage
decreased primarily as a result of the increase in warranty
reserve provisions and increases in the cost of certain items.
The increase for the nine months was due primarily to the charge
to earnings in 1995, offset by the increase in warranty reserve
provisions and costs of certain purchased items.
Operating Expense
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and related employee benefits, payroll
taxes, commissions, royalties, legal expenses and other general,
administrative and overhead costs. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1996, were $3.0 million and $7.8 million
respectively, as compared to $2.6 million and $7.4 million for
the corresponding periods in 1995. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 16.3% during the quarter and
4.6% for the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the same
periods in the previous fiscal year. This increase for the
quarter and nine months was due to additional administrative
costs assumed from the acquisition of American Containment.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1996, was $109,000 and $234,000, respectively, as
compared to $50,000 and $140,000 for the corresponding periods in
1995. The increase was due to the Company's continued borrowing
on a term loan to increase its manufacturing capabilities as well
as the additional interest expense for the term loan used to
acquire American Containment.
Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization of intangibles consists of the
amortization of goodwill, including goodwill related to purchase
of American Containment, over a period of 40 years and the
amortization of various patents and licenses that are amortized
on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the patents
(which range from 13 to 18 years) at the acquisition date or
subsequent issuance date.
Income Taxes
Income tax (benefit) for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, was $351,000 and $770,000,
respectively, as compared to an expense (benefit) of $759,000 and
($443,000) for the corresponding periods in 1995. The decrease
in income tax expense for the quarter was due to a reduction in
earnings before income taxes. The increase in income tax expense
for the nine months was due primarily to the reduction of
earnings before taxes in 1995 caused by the aforementioned
increase in the Company's warranty reserve.
Net Income
The Company's net income for the quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1996, was $593,000 and $1.2 million,
respectively, as compared to $1.1 million and ($725,000) for the
corresponding periods in 1995. Net income decreased 43.6% during
the quarter and increased 269.4% for the first nine months of
1996 as compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year.
The decrease in net income for the quarter was due primarily to a
reduction in earnings before taxes caused by certain increases in
costs of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative
expenses. The increase for the nine months is the result of the
increase in the warranty reserve in the second quarter of 1995.
This was partially offset by a decrease in net sales and an
increase in both costs of goods sold and selling, general, and
administrative expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had working capital of $6.6 million and
$8.2 million at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995,
respectively. The decrease was due to the reduction in long term
warranty reserve, offset by the Company's net income and
depreciation.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In July of 1991, Meijer, Inc. ("Meijer"), a corporation
that owns and operates grocery stores throughout the State of
Michigan, some of which operate motor vehicle fuel dispensing
stations, filed a lawsuit in the Michigan Circuit Court for the
Seventeenth Judicial District against the Company and 18 other
defendants, including general contractors, subcontractors,
architects and engineers. Meijer alleged, among other claims,
breach of warranty with respect to the alleged failure of the
Company's Pipe Jackets which were installed between 1988 and 1990
at 11 fuel dispensing station sites in Michigan by various third
party contractors as a secondary containment mechanism for a
primary pipe system manufactured by a competitor.
In September of 1996, the Company and Meijer settled
outstanding and potential claims by Meijer against the Company.
The settlement, which is reflected in the Company's financial
statements, has the effect of eliminating any contingent exposure
which the Company possessed as a result of the claims alleged in
Meijer's lawsuit.
