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, 2003 have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 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, 2004. 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, 2004, the amount outstanding pursuant to this facility was $4,600,000 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 through May 31, 2004. 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 1.5% per year. The Registrant is currently discussing renewal of the line of credit and increasing the maximum authorized borrowing under this financing arrangement to $6,000,000. It is anticipated that these discussions will finalized during May 2004. During March 1999, The Registrant borrowed $400,000 from an entity owned by certain officers of the Company. The obligation required monthly payments of principal and interest at prevailing rates through maturity during April, 2004. During April 2004 such obligation was refinanced with a principal balance of approximately $365,800 and required monthly principal and interest payments at an annual interest rate of prime plus 1% through the revised maturity during April 2011. 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. First Quarter Trend: Resulting principally from the recurring seasonality of the Company's products, customer promotions offered during the fourth quarter and weather, the Company's operations historically yield operating losses during the quarters ending March 31. The following tabulation reflects net sales and net income (loss) for the Registrants last five first quarters:
Quarter ended Net income March 31, Net sales (loss) ---------- ---------- --------- 2004 $3,437,586 ($205,541) 2003 2,870,767 ( 682,058) 2002 3,917,975 56,943 2001 3,233,206 ( 309,474) 2000 3,272,135 ( 10,164)
The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. 7 Results of Operations: Net sales increased approximately 20 % or $ 567,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 when compared to the same quarter of the preceding year. Such increase was primarily attributed to mild weather in the northern states causing an early start of the boating season and thereby increased sales of marine products Cost of goods sold decreased as a percentage of net sales when comparing the quarter ended March 31, 2004 with the comparable quarter in 2003. The percentages were 78.3% and 88.7 % for the quarters ended during 2004 and 2003, respectively. The ratio was favorably impacted by spreading the fixed element of manufacturing overhead over the higher sales levels experienced during the current quarter. This change was unfavorably impacted by increasing costs of petroleum based raw materials, many of which are key components of the Registrant's products. In an attempt to offset the foregoing, the Company has passed on price increases on certain products during the quarter ending June 30, 2004. Selling and administrative expenses increased approximately $55,000 or 7% when comparing the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Such increase was primarily attributable to higher personnel costs. Advertising and promotion increased approximately $ 3,000 comparing the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Interest expense decreased by approximately $3,000 comparing the March 31, 2004 quarter to the corresponding quarter in 2003.
