AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2001 and June 24, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Sales of the Company's retail stores are generally higher in the first quarter due to the holiday shopping season. Sales of the Company's frozen beverages and frozen juice bars and ices are generally higher in the third and fourth quarters due to warmer weather. While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2000. Note 2 The Company's calculation of earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," is as follows: 7 Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 Income Shares Per Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount (in thousands, except per share amounts) Basic EPS Net Income available to common stockholders $5,778 8,540 $.68 Effect of Dilutive Securities Options - 351 (.03) Diluted EPS Net Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $5,778 8,891 $.65 Nine Months Ended June 30,2001 Income Shares Per Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount (in thousands, except per share amounts) Basic EPS Net Income available to common stockholders $5,452 8,463 $.64 Effect of Dilutive Securities Options - 237 (.01) Diluted EPS Net Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $5,452 8,700 $.63 8 Three Months Ended June 24, 2000 Income Shares Per Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount (in thousands, except per share amounts) Basic EPS Net Income available to common stockholders $5,010 8,728 $.57 Effect of Dilutive Securities Options - 162 (.01) Diluted EPS Net Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $5,010 8,890 $.56 Nine Months Ended June 24, 2000 Income Shares Per Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount (in thousands, except per share amounts) Basic EPS Net Income available to common stockholders $6,416 8,915 $.72 Effect of Dilutive Securities Options - 285 (.02) Diluted EPS Net Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $6,416 9,200 $.70 Note 3 Inventories consist of the following: June 30, September 30, 2001 2000 (in thousands) Finished goods $14,367 $10,714 Raw materials 2,798 2,136 Packaging materials 3,102 2,532 Equipment parts & other 5,402 6,091 $25,669 $21,473 9 Note 4 Using the guidelines set forth in SFAS No. 131, the Company has two reportable segments: Snack Foods and Frozen Beverages. Snack Foods manufactures and distributes snack foods and bakery items. Frozen beverages markets and distributes frozen beverage products. The segments are managed as strategic business units due to their distinct production processes and capital requirements. The Company evaluates each segment's performance based on income or loss before taxes, excluding corporate and other unallocated expenses and non- recurring charges. Information regarding the operations in these reportable segments is as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 30, June 24, June 30, June 24, 2001 2000 2001 2000 (in thousands) Sales: Snack Foods $ 69,178 $ 59,044 $175,955 $151,976 Frozen Beverages 31,792 29,844 71,892 70,231 $100,970 $ 88,888 $247,847 $222,207 Depreciation and Amortization: Snack Foods $ 4,057 $ 3,632 $ 12,145 $ 10,476 Frozen Beverages 4,410 4,064 12,866 11,885 $ 8,467 $ 7,696 $ 25,011 $ 22,361 Income Before Taxes: Snack Foods $ 4,703 $ 4,118 $ 10,275 $ 11,035 Frozen Beverages 4,469 3,834 (1,621) (851) $ 9,172 $ 7,952 $ 8,654 $ 10,184 Capital Expenditures: Snack Foods $ 2,532 $ 5,079 $ 5,392 $ 12,828 Frozen Beverages 3,749 5,201 7,483 13,098 $ 6,281 $ 10,280 $ 12,875 $ 25,926 Assets: Snack Foods $135,036 $116,988 $135,036 $116,988 Frozen Beverages 97,950 106,295 97,950 106,295 $232,986 $223,283 $232,986 $223,283 10 Note 5 In June 1998, SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued. Subsequent to this statement, SFAS No. 137 was issued, which amended the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to be all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, SFAS 138 was issued, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS 133". SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 138, requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on the designation of the hedge transaction. The Company adopted SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 138, in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001. Based on the Company's minimal use of derivatives at the current time, the adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on earnings or financial position of the Company. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101) which addresses certain criteria for revenue recognition. SAB 101, as amended by SAB 101A and SAB 101B, outlines the criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosures related to revenue recognition policies. The Company implemented the applicable provisions of SAB 101 as amended by SAB 101A in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001. Management believes the Company's revenue recognition policies comply with the guidance contained in the SAB and, therefore, the Company's results of operations were not materially affected. In May 2000, The Emerging Issues Task Force reached consensus opinions on Issue 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives (Issue 00-14)". Issue 00-14 pertains to the recognition, measurement, and income statement classification of certain sales incentives, including discounts, coupons, rebates, and free products or services received by the customer. The issue requires certain incentives to 11 be classified as a reduction of revenue. The Company reclassed $744,000 and $691,000 of sales incentives from marketing expense to reduction of sales in the three months ended June 30, 2001 and June 24, 2000, respectively, and $1,881,000 and $1,563,000 in the nine months ended June 24, 2001 and June 30, 2000, respectively. On June 29, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) approved for issuance Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Major provisions of these Statements are as follows: all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 must use the purchase method of accounting; the pooling of interest method of accounting is prohibited except for transactions initiated before July 1, 2001; intangible assets acquired in a business combination must be recorded separtely from goodwill if they arise from contractual or other legal rights or are separable from the acquired entity and can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or as part of a related contract, asset or liability; goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but tested for impairment annually, except in certain circumstances, and whenever there is an impairment indicator; all acquired goodwill must be assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing and segment reporting; effective January 1, 2002, goodwill will no longer be subject to amortization. Management is currently reviewing the provisions of these Statements and their impact on the Company's results of operations. 12 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's current cash and marketable securities balances and cash expected to be provided by future operations are its primary sources of liquidity. The Company believes that these sources, along with its borrowing capacity, are sufficient to fund future growth and expansion. In the three months ended June 30, 2001 and June 24, 2000, fluctuations in the value of the Mexican peso caused an increase of $86,000 and a decrease of $118,000, respectively, in stockholders' equity because of the revaluation of the net assets of the Company's Mexican frozen beverage subsidiary. In the nine month periods, the increase was $80,000 in fiscal year 2001 and the decrease was $93,000 in fiscal year 2000. In November 2000, the Company acquired the assets of Uptown Bakeries for cash. Uptown Bakeries, located in Bridgeport, NJ, is a fresh bakery products manufacturer with approximately $17,000,000 in annual sales. In February 2001, the Company acquired the assets, and exclusive rights for food service channels, of Chill brand fruit ices. Chill Ices have approximately $3 million in annual foodservice sales. In December 2000, the Company refinanced its unsecured term loan and its general-purpose bank credit line with a general purpose unsecured bank credit line of $60,000,000. The new agreement contains restrictive covenants and requires commitment fees in accordance with standard banking practice. Borrowings under the line at June 30, 2001 were $39,000,000. In the nine months ended June 30, 2001, the Company purchased and retired 109,300 shares of its common stock at a cost of $1,400,000. Under a buyback authorization approved by the Board of Directors in fiscal year 2000, 277,000 shares remain to be purchased. 13 Results of Operations Net sales increased $12,082,000 or 14% to $100,970,000 for the three months and $25,640,000 or 12% to $247,847,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2001 compared to the same periods ended June 24, 2000. Excluding sales resulting from acquisitions, sales increased 7% for the three month period and 6% for the nine month period compared to a year ago. SNACK FOODS Sales to food service customers increased $7,046,000 or 22% in the third quarter to $39,250,000 and increased $15,747,000 or 18% for the nine months. Excluding sales resulting from acquisitions, sales would have increased approximately 3% for the third quarter and 4% for the nine months. Soft pretzels sales to the food service market increased approximately 2% in the third quarter and nine months to $14,751,000 and $45,281,000, respectively. Excluding sales resulting from acquisitions, food service soft pretzel sales would have decreased approximately 3% in the third quarter and the nine month period. Frozen juice bars and ices sales increased 28% to $12,473,000 in the three months and 13% to $23,085,000 in the nine months. Approximately one third of the frozen juice bars and ices sales' increase in both periods resulted from acquisitions. Churro sales to food service customers decreased 4% to $2,890,000 in the third quarter and increased 6% to $8,489,000 in the nine months. Cookie sales increased 32% to $2,926,000 in the third quarter and 29% to $9,898,000 in the nine months. Sales of products to retail supermarkets increased $1,674,000 or 10% to $18,746,000 in the third quarter and 22% to $43,983,000 in the nine months. Soft pretzel sales for the third quarter were down 5% and for the nine months were up 7% from last year to $5,778,000 and $20,737,000, respectively. Sales of our flagship SUPERPRETZEL brand soft pretzels, excluding SOFTSTIX, decreased 11% in the third quarter and increased 4% for the nine months. Sales of frozen juice bars and ices increased $2,124,000 or 19% to $13,291,000 in the third quarter and increased $6,498,000 or 38% to $23,445,000 in the nine months. Sales of the Company's Minute Maid brand licensed products, introduced *Minute Maid is a registered trademark of The Coca-Cola Company. 14 in last year's second quarter, accounted for approximately one half of the nine months' frozen juice bars and ices' sales increase and sales of LUIGI'S Real Italian Ice accounted for almost 90% of the third quarter sales increase. Bakery sales increased $1,644,000 or 24% to $8,496,000 in the third quarter and $646,000 or 3% to $21,556,000 in the nine months. The third quarter increase was due primarily to increased unit sales to one customer. Sales of our Bavarian Pretzel Bakery decreased 8% to $2,686,000 in the third quarter and 3% to $9,467,000 in the nine month period due primarily to decreased mall traffic. FROZEN BEVERAGES Frozen beverage and related product sales increased $1,948,000 or 7% to $31,792,000 in the third quarter and $1,661,000 or 2% to $71,892,000 in the nine months. Beverage sales alone increased 9% in the third quarter to $27,670,000 and 4% to $2,593,000 in the nine months. Gross profit on beverage sales increased 5% in the quarter and less than 1% in the nine months. Service and lease revenue increased $509,000 in the third quarter and $758,000 in the nine months. CONSOLIDATED Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 50% and 49% in the current third quarter and nine months, respectively, from 52% and 51% in the corresponding periods last year. The gross profit percentage decline in this year's periods is due to the inclusion of Uptown Bakeries which has a low gross profit percentage relative to the balance of the Company's business. Total operating expenses increased $3,226,000 in the third quarter and as a percentage of sales decreased to 41% from 42% in last year's same quarter. For the nine months, operating expenses increased $9,296,000 and as a percentage of sales decreased to 45% from 46% last year. Marketing expenses decreased to 30% of sales in this year's third quarter from 31% last year and decreased less than one 15 percentage point of sales to 32% of sales in the nine months from 33% of sales last year. Distribution expenses decreased less than one percentage point of sales to 7% of sales in the third quarter from 8% in last year's quarter and were 8% of sales in both year's nine months period. The decrease in marketing and distribution expenses as a percent of sales is caused by the inclusion of Uptown Bakeries which has virtually no marketing and distribution expenses. Administration expenses were 3% and 4% of sales in both year's third quarter and nine months, respectively. Operating income increased $972,000 or 11% to $9,592,000 in the third quarter and decreased $1,317,000 or 11% to $10,422,000 in the nine months. Operating income was impacted by higher property and casualty insurance costs of approximately $850,000 in the third quarter and $1,150,000 in the nine month period. The higher costs were due to market conditions and the Company's claims experience. Interest expense decreased $12,000 in the third quarter and increased $354,000 in the nine months. The increase in expense for the nine months was due to debt incurred to fund acquisitions. Sundry income increased $224,000 in the third quarter and $198,000 in the nine months, primarily due to the settlement of certain litigation. The effective income tax rate has been estimated at 37% in all periods reported. Net earnings increased $768,000 or 15% in the current three month period to $5,778,000 and decreased $964,000 or 15% in the current nine month period to $5,452,000. Item 3.
