6 OCEAN BIO-CHEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The information contained in this Report is unaudited, but reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the management, necessary for a fair statement of results of the interim periods, consisting only of normal recurring accruals. The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Certain financial statement items for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources: The primary sources of the Registrant's liquidity are its operations, short-term borrowings from a commercial bank pursuant to a revolving line of credit arrangement, and other borrowings. The total borrowings under the line are secured by trade receivables and inventories, and can aggregate a maximum amount of $5,000,000. The line matures on May 31, 2003. Under the terms of the line, the Registrant is required to maintain a minimum level of working capital and meet certain other financial covenants during the term of the agreement.. As of March 31, 2003, the amount outstanding pursuant to this facility was $3,700,000 and, as of such date, the Registrant was not in compliance with certain of the applicable loan covenants. The lender has agreed to waive such non compliance. During July, 2002, the Registrant finalized the working capital line of credit discussed in the preceding paragraph as well as an Industrial Revenue Bond financing issued through the city of Montgomery, AL in the amount of $3,500,000 to be utilized for a plant expansion and related equipment at the Registrant's Montgomery, AL facility. Such financing was secured with favorable interest rate terms which float with current conditions. The present interest rate is approximately 2% per year. On March 25, 1999, The Registrant borrowed $400,000 from an entity owned by certain officers of the Company. The obligation requires monthly payments of principal and interest at prevailing rates through maturity during April, 2004, when a final balloon payment is due. The Registrant is involved in making sales in the Canadian market and, accordingly, is subject to fluctuations of the Canadian currency. The Registrant does not engage in currency hedging and deals with such risk as a pricing issue. Results of Operations: Net sales decreased approximately 26.7% or $1,047,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 when compared to the same quarter of the preceding year. Such decrease was primarily attributed to colder weather in the northern states causing delays in the start of the boating season and thereby sales of marine products coupled with a change in on-hand inventory requirements of one of the Registrant's larger customers resulting in a hiatus in shipping to such customer until they reduced their inventory to desired levels. Both of these factors have returned to normal during the March/April time frame. Cost of goods sold increased as a percentage of net sales when comparing the quarter ended March 31, 2003 with the comparable quarter in 2002. The percentages were 88.7% and 74.5% for the quarters ended during 2003 and 2002, respectively. This change was attributable to increasing costs of petroleum based raw materials, many of which are key components of the Registrant's products. The percentage was also adversely impacted by spreading the fixed 7 element of manufacturing overhead over the lower sales levels experienced during the current quarter. In an attempt to offset the foregoing, the Company has passed on price increases on certain products during the quarter ending June 30, 2003. It should also be noted that subsequent to the first quarter and as a result of the termination of the war in Iraq, petroleum pricing has stabilized and has started drifting lower. Selling and administrative expenses increased approximately $115,300 or 17% when comparing the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. This change was primarily due to increased personnel costs and other normal recurring increases in operating expenses. Advertising and promotion decreased approximately $ 15,800 or 10 % comparing the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. This was caused by decreased co-op advertising offered to certain customers. Interest expense decreased by approximately $ 20,900 when comparing the March 31, 2003 quarter to the corresponding quarter in 2002. This was the result of lower borrowing costs resulting from the current low interest rate environment.
