See accompanying notes. - 5 - 6 MOORE-HANDLEY, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The financial statements included herein have been prepared by Moore-Handley, Inc. (the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 27, 1998. The financial information presented herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of the interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. 2. INCOME PER COMMON SHARE Basic net income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and net income. Diluted net income per share is based on the weighted average of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive Employee stock options and net income. Basic and diluted earnings per share were the same for the first quarter of 1997 and 1998. 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenues when goods are shipped. - 6 - 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED) NET SALES Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 were up 6.9% compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Warehouse shipments increased 3.3% and factory direct shipments increased 13.5%. The increase in factory direct shipments reflects record sales at a Dealers' Mart held during the quarter and the Company's expanded efforts to increase sales of lumber and building materials. Gross margins on direct shipments are lower than gross margins on warehouse shipments; however, expenses related to direct shipments are also lower. While the trend toward factory direct shipments has resulted in decreased gross margins, the Company believes that direct shipments are an important part of its business as a full-service wholesale distributor. The following table sets forth the major elements of net sales:
Three Months Ended March 31, ---------------------------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- (dollars in thousands) Net Sales: Warehouse shipments ........ $25,131 62.1% $24,322 64.3% Factory direct shipments ... 15,341 37.9 13,520 35.7 ------- ----- ------- ----- Net Sales ................ $40,472 100.0% $37,842 100.0% ======= ===== ======= =====
OPERATIONS The following table sets forth certain financial data as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated:
Three Months Ended March 31, --------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- Net sales ............................ 100.0% 100.0% ===== ===== Gross margin ......................... 15.0 14.6 Warehouse and delivery expense ....... 5.6 6.1 ----- ----- Gross profit ......................... 9.4 8.5 Selling and administrative expenses .. 8.3 9.2 ----- ----- Operating income (loss) .............. 1.1 (.7) Interest expense, net ................ .9 .7 ----- ----- Income (loss) before provision for income tax (benefit) ........... .2% (1.5)% ===== =====
- 7 - 8 GROSS MARGIN The gross margin percentage for the first quarter of 1998 was 15.0%, up from 14.6% in the first quarter of 1997. The increase is due to a new pricing program begun late in 1997 and to lower cost of merchandise as the Company has taken increased advantage of special buying opportunities offered by suppliers. These factors were offset somewhat by the increase in factory direct shipments as a percentage of total sales. The following table sets forth the gross margin dollars, gross margin percentages and year-over-year changes for 1997 and the first quarter of 1998:
Increase (Decrease) vs. Same Quarter Gross Margin in Previous Year -------------------------- ------------------ Amount Percentage Amount Percentage Quarter (in thousands) of Sales (in thousands) Points ------- -------------- -------- -------------- ------ 1997 - 1st $5,511 14.6 $ (402) (.7) 2nd 5,394 15.2 (421) (1.0) 3rd 5,843 14.6 (112) (.6) 4th 5,354 16.5 (327) (1.3) 1998 - 1st 6,066 15.0 $ 555 .4
WAREHOUSE AND DELIVERY EXPENSES As a percentage of warehouse shipments, warehouse and delivery expenses decreased to 9.0% in the first quarter of 1998 from 9.4% in the same quarter last year. Ongoing efforts to further reduce warehouse expense include resetting the warehouse which the Company now expects will not be completed until the end of the year. The following table shows the trend in warehouse and delivery expenses in 1997 and the first quarter of 1998:
Increase (Decrease) Warehouse and Delivery vs. Same Quarter Expenses in Previous Year ------------------------ ---------------------- Percentage Amount of Warehouse Amount Percentage Quarter (in thousands) Sales (in thousands) Points ------- -------------- ------------ -------------- ---------- 1997 - 1st $2,294 9.4 $ 91 .9 2nd 2,470 10.3 (125) .2 3rd 2,329 9.3 (374) (1.0) 4th 2,393 11.0 (14) .5 1998 - 1st 2,254 9.0 $(40) (.4)
- 8 - 9 SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1997 included an accrual of $225,000 for severance pay; no similar expense occurred in 1998. This savings was offset in part by increases in other selling and administrative expenses and overall these expenses decreased $123,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 compared to the same quarter of 1997. The following table shows the quarterly trend in selling and administrative expenses in 1997 and the first quarter of 1998.
Increase (Decrease) Selling and Administrative vs. Same Quarter Expenses in Previous Year -------------------------- ----------------------- Amount Percentage Amount Percentage Quarter (in thousands) of Sales (in thousands) Points --------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- 1997 - 1st $3,498 9.2 $ 158 .6 2nd 3,528 10.0 (204) (.4) 3rd 3,212 8.0 (381) (1.1) 4th 3,486 10.7 (8) (.2) 1998 - 1st $3,374 8.3 $(123) (.9)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES From December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998 the Company's net trade receivables increased by $6,374,000 or 27.9%. The increase was due to the higher level of sales in March 1998 (which includes shipment of orders taken at a Dealers Mart held in February) and because of extended terms given to customers as a part of a sales promotion conducted in January. Inventories decreased by $533,000 or 3.1% in the same period. However, inventories were up $2,414,000 compared to March 31, 1997 as the Company took increased advantage of special buying opportunities offered by suppliers. Trade payables increased $7,702,000 or 43.2% from December 1997 because of extended terms received from suppliers in connection with the Dealers' Mart. At March 31, 1998 the Company had unused lines of credit of $2,035,000, which it believes are adequate to finance its working capital requirements. IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 Some of the Company's older computer programs were written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. As a result, those computer programs have time-sensitive software that recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could cause a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, - 9 - 10 a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities. The Company is in the process of assessing which portions of its software will have to be modified or replaced so that its computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The total year 2000 project cost is not yet available. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs related to the development of a modification plan. INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain of the statements contained in this report (other than the financial statements and other statements of historical fact) are forward-looking statements. The use of words such as "Expects" and "Believes" indicate the presence of forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with management's expectations or that the effect of future developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements are the following: - competitive pressures on sales and pricing, including those from other wholesale distributors and those from retailers in competition with the Company's customers; - the Company's ability to achieve projected cost savings from its warehouse modernization program and ongoing cost reduction efforts; - changes in cost of goods and the effect of differential terms and conditions available to larger competitors of the Company; - uncertainties associated with any acquisition the Company may seek to implement; - changes in general economic conditions; and - impact of year 2000 on the Company's information systems. While the Company periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties affecting the Company's results of operations and financial condition in connection with its preparation of management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition contained in its quarterly and annual reports, the Company does not intend to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement referenced in light of future events.
