MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
THE CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF EARNINGS
The following is Management's discussion of the Company's operating results
and analysis of factors which have affected the accompanying Statement of
Earnings:
NET SALES:
First Quarter, 1996
First Quarter vs.
1996 1995 First Quarter, 1995
$63,264,854 $60,269,205 +5.0%
First Quarter 1996 net sales of $63,264,854, a record, were up 5.0% from
First Quarter 1995 net sales of $60,269,205. Sales rose as a result of
successful promotional programs, product line extensions and the introduction
of new products into the distribution channels. Consolidated sales were also
favorably affected by improved results in Mexico.
First Quarter 1996 net sales of $63,264,854 were down from Fourth Quarter
1995 net sales of $67,145,159. This is not considered unusual as the First
Quarter of the year is normally the company's lowest quarter in sales and is
consistent with the historical trend.
COST OF SALES:
Cost of Sales as a
First Quarter Percentage of Net Sales
1996 1995 1st Qtr. 1996 1st Qtr. 1995
$32,578,259 $30,702,860 51.5% 50.9%
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales increased slightly from 50.9% for
First Quarter 1995 to 51.5% for First Quarter 1996. This increase principally
reflects increases in certain ingredients costs.
NET EARNINGS:
First Quarter, 1996
First Quarter vs.
1996 1995 First Quarter, 1995
$8,117,962 $7,318,470 +10.9%
First Quarter 1996 net earnings of $8,117,962 or $0.35 per share, a record,
were up 10.9% from net earnings of $7,318,470 or $0.32 per share for the
First Quarter 1995. The increase in net earnings reflects higher sales,
control of operating expenses resulting in improved margins from operations
and increased net investment income.

<PAGE>
First Quarter 1996 net earnings of $8,117,962 decreased $372,377 or 4.4% from
Fourth Quarter of 1995 net earnings of $8,490,339, which reflects the lower
level of sales in the First Quarter 1996 compared to the Fourth Quarter 1995.
This is consistent with historical trends.
