In the opinion of management, the foregoing unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2000. 2. The results for the three and six month periods August 31, 2000 and 1999, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year. 3. For the three and six months ended August 31, 2000 and 1999, basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net earnings applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net earnings applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and common stock equivalents which consist of stock options and warrants and convertible preferred stock. 4. The Company utilizes an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax return. In estimating future tax consequences, consideration is given to all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law or rates. 5. On February 28, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved a strategy decision to discontinue the operations comprising its Company owned franchises. The Company owned franchises included the 100% owned franchises in Delray Beach, Florida and Merrimack, New Hampshire and the 70% owned franchise in Louisville, Kentucky. The Company sold the Delray Beach, Florida and Louisville, Kentucky franchises in fiscal 2000. Net assets of the Merrimack, New Hampshire franchise of $150 are included in assets held for sale in the August 31, 2000 condensed consolidated balance sheet. Sales from Company owned franchise discontinued operations were $144 and $353 for the three months ended August 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and were $301 and $1,154 for the six months ended August 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. In a transaction effective September 30, 2000, the Company tranferred the assets of the Merrimack, New Hampshire Franchise in exchange for a promissory note in the amount of $150. The Company recorded an additional loss on discontinued operations of $50 for the period ended August 31, 2000 in anticipation of this transaction. 6 BCT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- August 31, 2000 --------------- Results of Operations --------------------- Total revenues decreased $242,000, or 4.8%, for the three months ended August 31, 2000 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in revenue is attributable primarily to decreases in (i) catalog sales at the Company's printing facility ($186,000, or 73%), (ii) royalty revenue ($31,000, or 2.4%),(iii) sales of paper and supplies ($91,000 or 2.7%). These decreases were offset by increases in (iv) interest income ($15,000 or 18%) and (v) monthly fees charged to franchises for orderprinting.com ($50,000). Catalog sales decreased in fiscal 2001 due to lower demand. During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2000, there was a large backlog of orders for catalogs due to the release of a new catalog design in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999. This backlog was eliminated in October 1999. Royalties decreased primarily due to the Company's practice begun in July 1999 of providing a reserve for royalties whose collection the Company considers to be doubtful. During the three months ended August 31, 2000 additions to this reserve amounted to $36,000 as compared to $24,000 in the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. Paper and supplies sales decreased primarily due to holiday greeting card stock sales which occurred in August last year, but were delayed until September this year. Interest income increased due to additional promissory notes signed with franchises during the first quarter of fiscal 2001. Fees charged to franchises for the use of orderprinting.com, the Company's internet based ordering system, were increased in January 2000, which resulted in higher revenues this fiscal year. Total revenues decreased $103,000, or 1%, for the six months ended August 31, 2000, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in revenue is attributable primarily to decreases in (i) catalog sales at the Company's printing facility ($307,000, or 67%), and (ii) royalty revenue ($17,000, or .6%). These decreases were offset by increases in (iii) sales of paper and supplies ($82,000 or 1.2%), (iv) interest income ($35,000 or 22.9%) and (v) monthly fees charged to franchises for orderprinting.com ($93,000). Cost of paper and printing sales as a percentage of paper and printing sales was 84% and 85%, respectively, for the three and six months ended August 31, 2000, as compared to 81% and 82%, respectively, for the corresponding periods in fiscal 2000. Although the percentage generally remains stable, it does fluctuate due to periodic changes in the revenue mix. In addition, the percentage has been impacted in fiscal 2001 by higher freight charges due to fuel surcharges and by increases in the prices charged by paper mills for certain paper stocks. Selling and administrative expenses represented 27% and 26% of gross revenues for the three and six months ended August 31, 2000 as compared to 40% and 30% for the corresponding periods in fiscal 2000. The selling and administrative expense percentage was higher in the prior fiscal year due to an additional $650,000 provision for bad debt, as well as severance and relocation expenses incurred related to changes at the President and CEO position and two other key management positions. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- Cash resources decreased $590,000 during the six months ended August 31, 2000. The Company used cash to make principal payments on debt of $59,000, to make capital expenditures of $132,000 and to reduce accounts payable and accrued liabilities $906,000. The Company plans to continue to improve its working capital and cash positions during fiscal 2001 by continuing its efforts to (i) increase cash collections; and (ii) increase marketing to new customer channels through orderprinting.com, its proprietary internet based ordering system while containing capital expenditures and maintaining inventory levels. The Company believes current cash reserves and internally generated funds will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future; however, there can be no assurance that external financing will not be needed. The Company has available a $2 million line of credit with a bank. No advances have been made on the line. Certain information contained in this report, particularly information regarding future economic performance and finances, plans and objectives of management, constitutes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In some cases, information regarding certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement appear together with such statement. In addition, the following factors, in addition to other possible factors not listed, could affect the Company's actual results and cause such results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. These factors include competition within the wholesale printing industry, which is intense; changes in general economic conditions; technological changes; changes in customer tastes; legal claims; the continued ability of the Company and its franchisees to obtain suitable locations and financing for new Franchises as well as expansion of existing Franchises; governmental initiatives, in particular those relating to franchise regulation and taxation; and risk factors detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk ---------------------------------------------------------- The Company had no outstanding balances subject to market risk during the period covered by this report. The Company has a $2 million line of credit with a bank which bears interest at prime + .25%. No advances have been made on the line. 9 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
