No provision was made for a discretionary contribution for the periods ended March 31, 2007 and April 1, 2006. NOTE 10 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK --------------------------------------- Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of occasional temporary cash investments and accounts receivable. At the end of the quarter two customers represented approximately 19% of total accounts receivable. Two customers represented approximately 25% at the year ended December 30, 2006. Page 8 BURKE MILLS, INC. Item 1. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS --------------------- During 1996 in connection with a bank loan to the Company secured by real estate, the Company had a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment conducted on its property. The assessment indicated the presence of a contaminant in the groundwater under the Company's property. The contaminant was a solvent used by the Company in the past but is no longer used. The contamination was reported to the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). DENR required a Comprehensive Site Assessment that has been completed. The Company's outside engineering firm conducted testing and prepared a Corrective Action Plan that was submitted to DENR. The Company has identified remediation issues and continues to move toward a solution of natural attenuation. The cost of monitoring is approximately $11,000 per year. SELF-INSURANCE - The Company provides health benefits to its employees under a self-insured health plan. Claims are paid by the Company up to an individual and an aggregated limit of $55,000 and approximately $959,000, respectively. Claims in excess of these limits are covered by a third-party insurance contract. Expense is recorded on a monthly basis for actual claims experience. Page 9 BURKE MILLS, INC. Item 1. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 12 - INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company and its joint venture partner, Akra, voted on March 26, 2004 to close their joint venture, Fytek. The joint venture operated on a scaled down basis through mid-August 2004. In 2005 and 2006, the Company and its joint venture partner continued liquidation of Fytek. The Company received approximately $325,000 of cash distributions through year end 2005. In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company sold its shares in Fytek to Akra for $15,000. Akra will maintain the financial records of Fytek for five years, as required by Mexican tax laws. The Company paid its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, who is also the Company's majority shareholder, a base salary of $52,500 for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and April 1, 2006. The Company also reimbursed this officer for a portion of his office and travel expense. These payments totaled approximately $12,670 and $28,075, for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and April 1, 2006 respectively. NOTE 13 - ACCOUNTING FOR POSSIBLE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS ------------------------------------------------------------------- Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of these assets and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is assessed using discounted cash flows. NOTE 14 - EARNINGS PER SHARE ---------------------------- Earnings per share are based on the net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the thirteen week periods ended March 31, 2007, and April 1, 2006. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ----------------- Although the Company's sales declined by 17.3% for the quarter, there has been no major customer lost. The sales decline would have been greater if the Company had not continued to add new customers in 2006. The Company continues to develop new programs that could add customers, but there is no guarantee that existing customers business will not continue to decline. Also, the industry has an overcapacity for dyed yarns, causing very competitive pricing. Utility cost continues to be a challenge, as fuel oil and natural gas prices remain volatile, electricity prices are expected to increase 12% in July and water rates are expected to increase by 5% in July. Inventories increased as a result of a build up of imported yarns and a decline in demand. The inventory will be reduced in the second quarter. Page 10 BURKE MILLS, INC. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (continued) ----------------------------- Results of Operations - 2007 Compared to 2006 --------------------------------------------- The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information set forth under the Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in the 10-Q. The following table sets forth operating data of the Company as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated below:
Thirteen Weeks Ended ---------------------- March 31 April 1 2007 2006 ------ ------ Net Sales 100.0% 100.0% Cost of Sales 103.7 99.2 ------ ------ Gross Profit (loss) (3.7) 0.8 Selling, General, and Administrative Costs 9.9 8.3 ------ ------ Operating Loss (13.6) (7.5) ------ ------ Net Other Expense (0.1) (0.0) ------ ------ Net Loss (13.7) (7.5) ====== ======
Net Sales --------- Net sales for the first quarter decreased by 17.3% to $5,265,000 compared to $6,369,000 for the first quarter of 2006. Although net sales decreased by 17.3%, pounds shipped decreased by 11.1% due to a change in sales mix. During the second quarter of 2006, the Company added commission (the dyeing and processing of customer owned yarn) customers and changed the sales mix significantly. Commission pounds shipped in the first of 2007 was 30% of total pounds shipped compared to only 5% in the first quarter of 2006. The average sales price for commission sales will be lower as there is no yarn cost in the sales price. Cost of Sales and Gross Margin ------------------------------ Since the Company began diversifying into other fibers, its non-polyester volume has increased. These fibers have a longer dyeing and drying cycle time and require winding after dyeing. Cost of goods sold decreased by $860,000 or 13.6%. Cost of materials decreased by $845,000 or 22.4%, as a result of lower sales and a change in sales mix to a greater portion of commission sales. Direct labor cost increased by $12,000 or 4.4% as a result of a change in sales mix that requires more winding of the yarn and longer dye cycles. Page 11 BURKE MILLS, INC. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Cost of Sales and Gross Margin (continued) ------------------------------------------ Overhead cost increased by $33,000 or 1.5% primarily as a result of the following: a. Electricity increased by $18,000 or 8.5% primarily due to a change in the product mix. Duke Energy, the Company's supplier of electricity has notified the Company that there will be a rate increase of 12% effective July 1, 2007. b. Natural gas and fuel oil cost increased by $23,000 or 5.9%. c. Water cost increased by $18,000 or 20.10% due to a rate increase of 5% in July 2006 and increased usage due to the change in sales mix. Small lot orders have increased, while orders for larger lots have declined. The Company's small dye machines are at capacity while the larger dye machines are under utilized. As a result of a decrease in net sales of 17.3% and a decrease in cost of sales of 13.6%, the Company experienced a gross loss of 3.7%. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses -------------------------------------------- Selling, general and administrative expenses remain approximately the same. Provision (Credit) for Income Taxes ------------------------------------ There was no provision or credit provided for income taxes for the quarter. See Note 8. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates ------------------------------------------ The preparation of financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and revenues and expenses recognized and incurred during the reporting period then ended. In addition, estimates affect the determination of contingent assets and liabilities and their related disclosure. The Company bases its estimates on a number of factors, including historical information and other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates in the event there are changes in related conditions or assumptions. The development and selection of the disclosed estimates have been discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The following accounting policies are deemed to be critical, as they require accounting estimates to be made based upon matters that are highly uncertain at the time such estimates are made. Page 12 BURKE MILLS, INC. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates (continued) ------------------------------------------------------ The Company is self-funded for its employee health claims. The health claims are paid by the Company after review by the Company's third party administrator. The Company's liability for health claims includes claims that the Company estimates have been incurred, but not yet presented to the administrator. A historical basis is used to establish the amount. The Company reviews its inventory and when necessary establishes a markdown allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. The markdown allowance is determined by aging the inventory, reviewing the inventory with the salesmen, and determining a salvage value. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that it estimates is more likely than not to be realized. As of March 31, 2007 and December 30, 2006, the Company recorded a valuation allowance that reduced its deferred tax assts to zero. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- In the first quarter of 2007 and 2006, the Company financed its operations with funds generated from operations and its line of credit. The Company's ability to generate cash from operating activities is subject to the level of net sales. As discussed earlier, the Company continues to expand into other fibers and add customers. As set forth in the Statement of Cash Flows, funds used in operating activities were approximately $449,000. The funds used reflect the net loss and the increase in inventory. The Company has used approximately $36,000 for capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2007 compared to $10,000 in 2006. Planned capital expenditures for 2007 are approximately $100,000. The Company's line of credit provided approximately $447,000 in the first quarter of 2007. The Company had debt under its line of credit of $705,000 and availability of $2,869,000 at March 31, 2007. The Company's working capital decreased by $370,000 primarily as a result of the net loss.
March 31 December 30 2007 2006 ----------- ----------- Working Capital $ 2,310,000 $ 2,680,000 Working Capital Ratio 1.90 to 1 2.60 to 1
As a measure of current liquidity, the Company's quick position (cash, cash equivalents and receivables over current liabilities) disclosed the following at March 31, 2007:
March 31, 2007 -------------- Cash, cash equivalents and receivables........... $2,784,000 Current liabilities.............................. 2,575,000 ---------- Excess of quick assets over current liabilities... $ 209,000 ========== Quick Ratio 1.08 to 1
Page 13 BURKE MILLS, INC. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward Looking Statements -------------------------- Certain statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial condition and Results of Operations, and other sections of this report, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws about the Company's financial condition and results of operations that are based on management's current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and projections about the markets in which the Company operates. Words such as "expects", anticipates", "believes", "estimates", variations of such words and other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's judgment only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligations to update publicly any of these forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future events or otherwise. Factors that may cause actual outcome and results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements include, but are not necessarily limited to, availability, sourcing and pricing of raw materials, pressures on sales prices due to competition and economic conditions, reliance on and financial viability of significant customers, technological advancements, employee relations, changes in construction spending and capital equipment expenditures (including those related to unforeseen acquisition opportunities), the timely completion of construction and expansion projects planned or in process, continued availability of financial resources through financing arrangements and operations, negotiations of new or modifications of existing contracts for asset management and for property and equipment construction and acquisition, regulations governing tax laws, other governmental and authoritative bodies, policies and legislation, and proceeds received from the sale of assets held for disposal. In addition to these representative factors, forward-looking statements could be impacted by general domestic and international economic and industry conditions in the markets where the Company competes; such as, changes in currency exchange rates, interest and inflation rates, recession and other economic and political factors over which the Company has no control. Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company has not purchased any instruments or entered into any arrangements resulting in market risk to the Company for trading purposes or for purposes other than trading purposes. Item 4 - Controls and Procedures --------------------------------- As of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report, the Company's management, with the participation of the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedure. The term "disclosure controls and procedures" means the controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to insure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to insure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits to the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its chief executive officer and its chief financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Page 14 Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, with the participation of the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries, of which the Company has none) required to be included in the reports filed with the SEC by the Company. There has been no significant change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
