MILEMARKER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
MileMarker International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, MileMarker, Inc.
(collectively "the Company"). All necessary adjustments to the financial
statements have been made, and significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which are
for interim periods, do not include all disclosures provided in the annual
consolidated financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and the footnotes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997 of Mile-Marker International, Inc.,
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The summary December 31,
1997 balance sheet was derived from audited consolidated financial statements,
but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles at December 31, 1997.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring
nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The
results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the complete fiscal year.
Per share data was computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the period.
NOTE 2: RECLASSIFICATION
Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified for comparative
purposes.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on
Form 10-QSB.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table summarizes the results of operations, stated as a
percentage of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1998, and 1997:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
1998 1997
------ ------
<S> <C> <C>
Sales 100.0% 100.0%
Cost of Sales 61.1% 62.9%
--------------------
Gross Profit 38.9% 37.1%
Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses 30.4% 32.0%
--------------------
Income from Operations 8.5% 5.1%
Other Income (Expense) (1.8)% (.5)%
Interest Expense 4.4% 3.2%
--------------------
Net Income 2.2% 1.4%
</TABLE>
Sales of $1,012,153 for the three months ended March 31, 1998, were
$44,630, or approximately 4% less than comparable 1997 sales of $1,056,783. This
decrease in sales was attributable to the warm winter resulting from the El Nino
weather effects. The Company's product mix between winches and hubs/conversion
kits continued to shift more towards winches, which accounted for approximately
35% of sales in the March 1998 quarter compared to approximately 30% in the 1997
period. The quarterly gross profit margin improved by approximately 2% in the
March 1998 quarter from the same period in 1997, reflecting lower product costs.
Selling 9costs, however, increased by approximately $40,000 in the first three
months of 1998 to $102,842 from $62,509 - an increase of about 65% when compared
to the same period in 1997 due to more sales commissions.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March
31, 1998 decreased by $59,431, or about 19%, from $308,833 in 1997 to $249,402
in 1998. The most significant decreases in general and administrative expenses
from the first three months of 1998 related primarily to salaries and
professional fees. 1998 officer salaries were significantly less than the prior
year's period, partially due to salary refunds by the executive officers.
Significant non-recurring legal costs were incurred by the Company during 1997
for the successful defense of its Kronberger legal action.
- 7 -
<PAGE> 8
Interest and loan amortization costs were higher in the first three months of
1998 than in 1997. Relative to sales, the 1998 first quarter's general and
administrative costs decreased by about 5% of sales from the comparable period
in 1997. During the quarter ended March 31, 1998, the President of the Company,
Richard E. Aho, waived approximately $42,000, consisting of officer compensation
and interest on his shareholder loan.
The Company's income from operations for the first three months of 1998
was approximately double that of the same period in 1997 - $41,706 versus
$20,955 due primarily to expense reductions. Other income and expense items in
the first three months of 1998 reflected the cessation of royalty income from
one source and the delayed start of royalties from another source. Nevertheless,
the net income of $22,935 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 was approximately
50% greater than the $15,006 of net income earned in the same period in 1997.
The Company's earnings per share were negligible in the first three months of
both 1998 and 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's current assets decreased by $145,874 to $2,817,082 at
March 31, 1998, compared to $2,962,936 at December 31, 1997. Most of this
decrease is reflected in a $198,203 lower level of accounts receivable at March
31, 1998, partially offset by an $82,290 increase in inventory. Net working
capital increased by $93,664 from $1,005,169 on December 31, 1997, to $1,098,833
on March 31, 1998, and the. the Company's current ratio increased to 1.64 at
March 31, 1998, compared to 1.51 at December 31, 1997. Borrowings under the
Company's line of credit decreased by $223,578 from December 31, 1997 levels as
the Company received the proceeds of $140,000 from the sale of its common stock
at $.35 per share and increased its use of accounts payable by $42,545.
The Company funds its operations principally through the daily collection of its
trade receivables, supplemented with asset-based borrowings. On March 31, 1997,
the Company committed to a $1,700,000 credit facility consisting of a two year
term loan of $200,000 and a two year revolving line of credit of $1,500,000.
This credit facility includes an interest rate of 3.5% above prime in addition
to substantial banking fees and requires as collateral a security interest in
all of the assets of MileMarker, Inc., including its inventory and accounts
receivable, as well as the pledge of all of the stock held by MileMarker
International, Inc. in MileMarker, Inc. and the key man life insurance on the
Company's President/Chairman.
The Company has no material commitments outstanding for major capital
expenditures during 1998.
