See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 4 6 Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements ------------------------------------------ for the three months ended March 31, 1994 (Unaudited) 1. Accounting Policies The unaudited interim financial information included herein reflects the adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and changes in cash flows for the periods presented. Such interim information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for 1993. The accounting policies used in preparing these financial statements are the same as those summarized in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (page F-7) for 1993. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1994, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 2. Other Revenue Other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1994, includes a gain of $21.1 million ($.06 per share) from the sale of Mrs. Smith's Frozen Foods pie business and a charge of $20.5 million ($.06 per share) primarily from the initial funding of the Kellogg's Corporate Citizenship Fund. Other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1993, includes a gain of $32.2 million ($.10 per share) from the sale of Cereal Packaging Ltd., and a charge of $29.5 million ($.08 per share) primarily from the write-down of certain North American assets. 3. Employee Stock Ownership Plan At the Company's April 22, 1994 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the 1993 Kellogg Employee Stock Ownership Plan was approved. The plan is designed to enable the Company to offer stock incentives to employees throughout the organization who are not eligible to participate in the Company's existing executive incentive plan. Six million shares of common stock, $.25 par value per share, have been reserved for issuance under the Plan. 5 7 KELLOGG COMPANY PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Net sales increased 6 percent for the first quarter, when compared to the same period of 1993. This increase resulted from higher selling prices, product mix, and to a lesser extent, volume growth, which on a worldwide basis increased by 2 percent for the quarter. Other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1994, includes a gain of $21.1 million ($.06 per share) from the sale of Mrs. Smith's Frozen Foods pie business. Mrs Smith's Frozen Foods pie business was sold to the J. M. Smucker Company, an Ohio based food company. Other revenue also includes a charge of $20.5 million ($.06 per share) primarily from the initial funding of the Kellogg's Corporate Citizenship Fund. Other revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1993, includes a gain of $32.2 million ($.10 per share) from the sale of Cereal Packaging Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Kellogg Company of Great Britain, Limited. Cereal Packaging Ltd. was sold to Low & Bonar PLC, a United Kingdom packaging and plastics company. Other revenue also includes a charge of $29.5 million ($.08 per share) primarily from the write-down of certain North American assets. As a percent of net sales, selling and administrative expense for the quarter was 36.0 percent, up from 34.4 percent during the same quarter last year. Business conditions permitting, the Company intends to moderate the rate of increase in marketing expenditures during the remainder of the year. The gross profit margin for the quarter was 54.6 percent, as compared to 52.3 percent for the same period in 1993. This increase was due primarily to higher selling prices and product mix, coupled with manufacturing cost-containment programs and efficiencies. The Company's tax expense as a percent of profit before tax was 38.2 percent for the quarter, as compared to 33.4 percent for the same period in 1993. The quarterly rate for 1994 is consistent with management's expectation of an approximate rate of 38% for the entire year. The 1994 tax rate exceeds the 1993 rate due to several factors which caused the 1993 rate to be comparatively low, including a low effective tax rate on the 1993 sale of Cereal Packaging Ltd. and lower effective tax rates in various international locations. Additionally, the 1994 rate increased over first quarter 1993, due to the 1 percent increase in the U.S. statutory rate, which was retroactively applied to January 1, 1993, during the third quarter of 1993. Earnings per share for the quarter increased to $.81 from $.76, a 6.6 percent improvement. Excluding all one-time events, earnings per share for the first quarter would have been $.81 for 1994, and $.74 for 1993, a 9.5 percent improvement. Since December 31, 1993, there have been no significant changes in the reportable geographic segments with respect to net sales and identifiable assets. Excluding the one-time events mentioned above, each operating segment's percentage of net earnings was relatively unchanged from that of December 31, 1993. On a global basis, the Company's market share is 43 percent of total worldwide cereal volume. 6 8 Financial Condition The Company's financial condition continued to be strong throughout the period. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1:1 as of March 31, 1994, unchanged from December 31, 1993. The ratio of debt to total capitalization was 36 percent compared to 35 percent at December 31, 1993. The slight increase in the debt to capitalization ratio is due to the increase in notes payable and the continuing treasury stock purchases, both of which are described below. During the three months ended March 31, 1994, the Company purchased 2,379,200 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $51.51 per share for a total of $122.6 million. Treasury stock purchases are made under plans authorized by the Company's Board of Directors. The Board has authorized repurchases during 1994 of up to $353 million and management intends to fully utilize this authorization by the end of the year. The increase of $50.7 million in notes payable from December 31, 1993 to March 31, 1994 was due primarily to the stock repurchase activity that occurred in the first three months of 1994 and increased general corporate working capital needs. The notes payable balance as of March 31, 1994, consists primarily of commercial paper which carries an effective interest rate of 3.57 percent. At March 31, 1994, the Company had available an unused "shelf registration" of $200 million with the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide for the issuance of debt in the United States. Since December 31, 1993, accounts receivable have increased by $73.4 million reflecting historical seasonal trends for first quarter results. The receivable balance at March 31, 1994 of $610.2 million was $30.3 million lower than on March 31, 1993. The Company typically turns over receivables more than once a month. Capital spending for the first three months of 1994 was $71.1 million, a decrease of $9.6 million from the first three months of 1993. Management continues to anticipate that total year 1994 capital expenditures will be approximately $400 million. The $71.3 million increase in cash and temporary investments for the three months ended March 31, 1994 compared to a reduction of $16.3 million during the same period in 1993, was due to a general improvement in the Company's working capital position, increased subsidiary sale proceeds, and lower Company stock purchases and capital spending. The Company is not aware of any adverse trends which would materially affect its financial condition or ability to provide financial resources for maintenance and expansion of the business. 7 9 KELLOGG COMPANY PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
