AMERICAN COIN MERCHANDISING, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
American Coin Merchandising, Inc., d/b/a Sugarloaf Creations, Inc. (the
"Company") and its franchisees own and operate coin-operated skill-crane
machines ("Shoppes") that dispense stuffed animals, plush toys, watches, jewelry
and other items. The Company's Shoppes are placed in supermarkets, mass
merchandisers, bowling centers, bingo halls, bars, restaurants, warehouse clubs
and similar locations. The Company and certain of its franchisees own and
operate kiddie rides. The Company also operates bulk vending equipment that
dispenses unsorted confections, nuts, gumballs, toys and novelties (in or out of
capsules) selected at random by the customer and dispensed through the
equipment. At March 31, 1998, the Company had 34 field offices operating in 39
states and there were 20 Company franchises in operation. The Company sells both
skill-crane machines and product vended in the machines to its franchisees and
collects continuing royalties ranging from 2% to 5% of the franchisees' gross
machine revenue.
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared, without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform
to the March 31, 1998 presentation. Although the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is
suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in connection with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
registration statement on Form S-1 dated October 28, 1997 and annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying condensed financial
statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and
adjustments) required to present fairly the Company's financial position at
March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations for each
of the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, and the cash flows for
each of the three month periods then ended.
The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 1998.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing
earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period and by all dilutive potential common
shares outstanding during the period, respectively. The weighted average number
of shares used in the computation of basic and dilutive earnings per share were
6,457,226 and 6,649,240, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 1998
and 5,250,797 and 5,424,595, respectively for the three months ended March 31,
1997.
4. INCOME TAXES
Quarterly income taxes are computed using the anticipated effective tax
rate for the year.
5. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
In March 1998, the Company repurchased for $492,000, including acquisition
costs, warrants exercisable for 70,000 shares of its Common Stock from an
underwriter. The Company initially issued warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of
its Common Stock with an exercise price of $8.40 per share as partial
compensation for acting as the Company's underwriter in its initial public
offering in October 1995. After this purchase, the underwriter retains warrants
exercisable for 55,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Except for the historical information contained therein, the following
discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those
discussed here. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences
include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this section and the
Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
GENERAL
Substantially all of the Company's revenue and gross profit is derived from
Company-owned Shoppes. The Company's revenue and gross profit in a particular
period is directly related to the number of Shoppes in operation during the
period. Management believes that the Company's business is somewhat seasonal,
with average revenue per machine per week greater during the Easter and
Christmas periods. Vending revenue represents cash receipts from customers using
vending machines and is recognized when collected. The cost of vending revenue
is comprised of the cost of vended product, location commissions, depreciation,
and direct service cost.
Franchise and other revenue represents the Company's percentage of gross
vending revenue generated by Shoppes owned and operated by franchisees, as well
as product sold to franchisees. Product sold to franchisees consists of goods to
vend in the Shoppes. Equipment sales to the franchisees have been done on a
pass-through basis from the Company's main suppliers. The Company anticipates
that franchise and other revenue will decline in the future as a result of the
Company's acquisition of franchises.
REVENUE
Total revenue for the first three months of 1998 increased 51.8% to $18.8
million from $12.4 million for the same period in 1997.
Vending revenue increased $6.9 million or 63.8% for the first three months
of 1998 to $17.6 million from $10.8 million for the comparable period in 1997
primarily as a result of a 57.2% increase in the average number of Shoppes in
place during the first three months of 1998 compared to the average number in
place during the same period in 1997.
The Company has recently experienced substantial growth, however, there can
be no assurance that the Company will continue to grow at historical rates or at
all. The Company's ability to generate increased revenue and achieve higher
levels of profitability will depend upon its ability and the ability of its
franchisees to place additional Shoppes as well as to maintain or increase the
average financial performance of the Shoppes. The Company's ability to place
additional Shoppes depends on a number of factors beyond the Company's control,
including general business and economic conditions. Installation of additional
Shoppes will also depend, in part, upon the Company's ability to secure
additional national and regional supermarket, mass merchandiser and restaurant
chain accounts and to obtain approval to place additional Shoppes in individual
locations of such accounts. The Company, its franchisees and their suppliers
also may be unable to place and adequately service additional Shoppes.
In addition, the Company has limited experience with product offerings
beyond skill-cranes and new product offerings (including kiddie rides and bulk
vending) that may involve risks and operational requirements different from
those of the Shoppes. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional
Company product offerings will meet with success or generate significant
additional revenue.
Franchise and other revenue decreased $455,000 or 28.4% to $1.1 million for
the first three months of 1998 as compared to the same period in 1997 due to the
acquisition of franchises by the Company and a reduction in the number of
machines sold to franchisees.
COST OF REVENUE AND GROSS PROFIT
The cost of vending operations for the first three months of 1998 increased
$5.0 million or 66.0% to $12.6 million from $7.6 million for the comparable
period in 1997. The vending operation's contribution to gross profit for the
first three months of 1998 increased to $5.0 million, which represents a 58.4%
increase over gross profit from vending operations realized in the same period
in 1997. Vending gross profit realized during the first quarter of 1998 was $5.0
million or 28.4% of vending revenue as compared to $3.2 million or 29.4% for the
first quarter of 1997. The decline in vending margin resulted primarily from a
higher average commission rate paid to locations.
Substantially all the Company's plush toys and other products dispensed
from the Shoppes are produced by foreign manufacturers. A majority are purchased
directly by the Company from manufacturers in the People's Republic of China
("China"). The Company purchases its other products indirectly from vendors who
obtain a significant percentage of such products from foreign manufacturers. As
a result, the Company is subject to changes in
8
<PAGE> 9
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED).
governmental policies, the imposition of tariffs, import and export controls,
transportation delays and interruptions, political and economic disruptions and
labor strikes which could disrupt the supply of products from such
manufacturers. Among other things, the loss of China's "most favored nation"
status under U.S. tariff laws could result in a substantial increase in the
import duty of certain products manufactured in China, which could result in
substantially increased costs for certain products purchased by the Company
which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
performance.
For the first quarter of 1998, gross profit on franchise and other revenue
decreased to $466,000 or 40.7% of franchise and other revenue, as compared to
$649,000 or 40.5% of franchise and other revenue for the first quarter of 1997.
The increase in gross margin as a percentage of franchise and other revenue
resulted primarily from lower 1998 equipment sales to franchisees that are at
lower margins.
OPERATING EXPENSE
General and administrative expenses for the first three months of 1998
increased $1.2 million to $3.5 million or 18.8% of total revenue, as compared to
$2.3 million or 18.6% of total revenue for the comparable period in 1997. The
increase in general and administrative expense results primarily from the
additional operating and satellite offices opened, including offices acquired
through acquisition, by the Company during the past year and additional costs
related to adding corporate staff.
OPERATING EARNINGS
Operating earnings for the first three months of 1998 increased 28.5% to
$1.9 million, or 10.3% of total revenue, as compared to $1.5 million, or 12.2%
of total revenue for the comparable period in 1997. The increase in operating
earnings results primarily from the 57.2% increase in the average number of
Shoppes in place during the first three months of 1998 compared to the average
number in place for the comparable period in 1997.
NON OPERATING INCOME (EXPENSE)
Interest expense for the first three months of 1998 increased $7,000 to
$118,000 as compared to the same period in 1997. The Company's interest expense
is directly related to its level of borrowings and changes in the underlying
interest rates.
NET EARNINGS AND NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net earnings for the first three months of 1998 increased 34.5% to $1.2
million, or 6.3% of total revenue, as compared to net earnings of $881,000 for
the comparable period in 1997. Diluted earnings per share for the first three
months of 1998 increased 12.5% to $0.18, as compared to $0.16 for the first
three months of 1997. Diluted weighted average common shares for the first three
months of 1998 increased 22.6% to 6,649,240, as compared to 5,424,595 for the
comparable period in 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary sources of liquidity and capital resources
historically have been cash flows from operations, borrowings under the
Company's bank credit facility and issuance of its common stock. These sources
of cash flows have been offset by cash used for investment in skill-crane
machines, the acquisition of franchisees and other amusement vending businesses
and payment of long-term borrowings.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Company anticipates that
cash will continue to be provided by operations as additional skill-crane
machines are placed in service. Cash required in the future is expected to be
funded by existing cash and cash provided by operations, borrowings under the
Company's credit facility or sale of equity securities.
Net cash used in investing activities was $6.4 million and $3.0 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Capital
expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 amounted to $3.8
million and $2.9 million, respectively, of which $2.8 million and $2.1 million
was for the acquisition of skill-crane and other machines. The acquisition of a
franchisee and an amusement vending business in 1998 used $2.6 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1998, compared to $104,000 of net cash used in financing
activities for the comparable period in 1997. Financing activities consist of
9
<PAGE> 10
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED).
advances and repayments on the Company's credit facility and other debt
obligations and in 1998 the repurchase of warrants.
Under its current revolving credit agreement, the Company may borrow up to
$15.0 million at the bank's prime interest rate (8.5% at March 31, 1998) or, at
the Company's option, an interest rate based on the current LIBOR rate. The
revolving line of credit is available through July 5, 1999. At March 31, 1998
there was a principal amount of approximately $4.7 million outstanding. The
credit agreement provides that certain financial ratios be met and places
restrictions on, among other things, the occurrence of additional debt financing
and the payment of dividends. The Company was in compliance with such financial
ratios and restrictions at March 31, 1998.
In March 1998, the Company repurchased for $492,000, including acquisition
costs, warrants exercisable for 70,000 shares of its Common Stock from an
underwriter. The Company initially issued warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of
its Common Stock with an exercise price of $8.40 per share as partial
compensation for acting as the Company's underwriter in its initial public
offering in October 1995. After this purchase, the underwriter retains warrants
exercisable for 55,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
The Company may use a portion of its capital resources to effect
acquisitions. Because the Company cannot predict the timing or nature of
acquisition opportunities, or the availability of acquisition financing, the
Company cannot determine the extent to which capital resources may be used.
Company management believes the Company's financial condition is strong and that
funds generated from operations and borrowings available under its credit
agreement and the Company's ability to negotiate additional and enhanced credit
agreements will be sufficient to meet the Company's foreseeable operating and
capital expenditure needs.
