Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without independent audit. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1996. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of what the operating results for the full year will be. 2. Inventories Inventories consist of the following at: June 30, December 31, 1997 1996 ------ ------ (In thousands of dollars) [S] [C] [C] Raw materials $ 500 $ 860 Finished goods 624 2,190 Service parts 1,582 2,004 ------ ------ Total inventories $2,706 $5,054 ====== ====== 3. Loss on Sale of Corson Lime Company Assets Effective June 21, 1997, Corson Lime Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, sold substantially all of its aggregate and lime assets for $7,855,000 in cash paid at closing, and an additional $376,000 for the final aggregate inventory, secured by a letter of credit, to be paid within one hundred and twenty days. Corson retained its accounts receivables, certain lime inventories and accounts payable. The proceeds from the sale were used to pay down the outstanding balance under the Company's revolving credit facility of $2,900,000. The sale resulted in a loss of $506,000 ($405,000 net of tax benefit), which is included in labor and other operating expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. 5 6 The loss of $506,000 reflects the sale of property, plant and equipment ($5,646,000), sale of certain inventories ($1,721,000), write-off of deferred stripping costs ($652,000), write-off of deferred maintenance costs ($233,000), write-off of intangible pension costs ($138,000) and transaction costs ($347,000). 4. Income Taxes As reported in the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes contained in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company has certain deferred tax assets which were previously fully reserved by a valuation allowance in accordance with SFAS 109. The unrecognized deferred tax assets relate primarily to net operating loss carry overs, general business credit carry overs, and alternative minimum tax credit carry overs. Generally, the provisions of SFAS 109 require deferred tax assets to be reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is "more likely" than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Statement 109 requires an assessment of all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine the amount of any required valuation allowance. As disclosed in the Company's financial statement footnotes, no benefit had been given to these deferred tax assets at December 31, 1996 due to the uncertainties related to their utilization. As a result of the sale of assets of Corson Lime Company, the Company has reviewed the deferred tax assets and concluded that the uncertainties as to their realization have been favorably resolved, in that the net operating loss carry overs are expected to be fully utilized by the end of 1997; the unused general business credits by the end of 1997 will be minimal; and the Company's future taxable income, enhanced by the sale of Corson Lime Company, indicates future utilization of the alternative minimum tax credit carry overs in the upcoming years. The post-Corson Lime Company sale assessment as to the ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets indicates that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. As a result, the Company reduced the deferred tax assets valuation allowance in the second quarter of 1997 by $2,300,000, recording deferred tax assets of $2,300,000 in other assets, net, and recognizing that amount during the quarter in federal and state income taxes (benefit). 6 7 ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Net cash used in operating activities was $500,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to $2,077,000 provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the pay off of the current liabilities of Corson Lime Company, as well as the increased spending on capital expenditures in the first half of 1997 compared to the same period a year ago. Effective June 21, 1997, Corson Lime Company. a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, sold substantially all of its aggregate and lime assets for $7,855,000 in cash paid at closing, and an additional $376,000 for the final aggregate inventory, secured by a letter of credit. The company used $2,900,000 of the net proceeds of the sale of Corson Lime Company to pay down the outstanding balance on the Company's revolving credit facility. As a result, the Company had cash of $4,357,000 and bank debt of $3,810,000 at June 30, 1997. The Company has not elected to pay down its term debt based on the need for these funds in the near term to pay for its planned modernization and expansion projects. The Company made $3,218,000 in capital expenditures in the first half of 1977, compared to $2,950,000 for the same period last year. In addition to these capital expenditures, the Company plans to undertake major modernization and expansion projects at its Arkansas and Texas facilities. The Company has for some time considered constructing a new kiln at the Arkansas plant. As part of this process, a new plant-wide permit was obtained in order to be in position to build the new kiln. Recent firm bid proposals indicated that the cost of the new kiln had increased substantially from the preliminary cost estimates supplied from the vendors, management determined to again review in detail the various kiln processing systems that can be employed at Arkansas. In addition, the crushing, handling, loadout, and storage facilities at Arkansas are being evaluated in order to develop a comprehensive modernization and expansion plan for this facility. The work on the Texas modernization and expansion project is preceeding on time and within budget. The plans include the installation of a new stone crushing and stone handling system, the addition of a pre-heater to one of the existing kilns, additional storage, screening and shipping capacity, and a new support building which will house a laboratory and administrative and shop facilities. The planned Texas improvements will allow the Company to better serve its customers by improving both quality and service. With the improvements, the Company will be in a position to compete for customers who currently cannot use the Company's lime in their process. The additional storage will improve both kiln utilization and the plant's ability to meet peek customer demand. The storage and load-out facilities will also substantially reduce the amount of time required for the loading of bulk quicklime trucks. The pre-heater addition to a current kiln will reduce fuel consumption and will also increase the plant's quicklime capacity by approximately 25%. These improvements will result in lower operating costs and in more efficient utilization of the work force. The cost of the Texas modernization and expansion project is still expected to be approximately $20,000,000. The project is subject to obtaining various permits. This project will be financed from a combination of internally generated funds and banking facilities. 7 8 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenues decreased from $11,583,000 in the second quarter of 1996 to $10,350,000 in the second quarter of 1997, a decrease of $1,233,000 or 10.6%. This decrease was partly a result of the sale of the Corson Lime Company assets prior to the end of the quarter. Excluding Corson Lime Company, revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by $698,000 or 8.6% from 1996, resulting from a 7.5% decrease in sales volume and 1.1% decrease in prices. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $18,158,000, a decrease of $1,948,000 or 9.7% from the $20,106,000 reported for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Excluding Corson Lime Company, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by $1,590,000 or 10.7% from 1996, resulting from a 9.5% decrease in sales volume and a 1.2% decrease in prices. The Company's gross profit was $1,118,000 in the second quarter of 1997, compared to $3,063,000 in the second quarter of 1996, a 63.5% decrease. Gross profit margin for the second quarter of 1997 decreased to 10.8%, from 26.4% in 1996. Gross profit was adversely impacted by the loss of $506,000 from the sale of the Corson Lime Company assets which was included in labor and other operating expenses. In addition, the lower gross profit and gross profit margins were attributable to decreased production volumes in the second quarter. Gross profit decreased to $1,713,000 for the first six months of 1997, from $4,873,000 in the first six months of 1996, a 64.9% decrease. Gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased to 9.4%, from 24.2.% in 1996. The loss on the sale of the Corson Lime Company assets and decreased production volumes negatively impacted both gross profit and gross profit margins. Although management was disappointed with the operating results for the first half of 1997, it is now starting to see better operating results and expects the second half to be an improvement over the first half. The markets which are served by the Texas plant are very strong, and management is also optimistic that the favorable signs it sees at Arkansas Lime will continue. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) remained almost constant at $1,154,000 in the second quarter of 1997, compared to $1,153,000 in the second quarter of 1996. SG&A as a percentage of sales increased to 11.1%, from 9.9% a year earlier. SG&A increased by $12,000 or 0.5%, in the first six months of 1997, compared to 1996, and as a percentage of sales increased to 12.5%, from 11.2%. Interest expense increased both in the second quarter and first six months of 1997 over 1996 by $6,000 and $5,000, respectively. This increase was due primarily to increased borrowings under the revolving loan facility in the first half of 1997. Other, net decreased by $22,000 in the second quarter of 1997, compared to the second quarter of 1996. Other, net decreased by $36,000 in the first six months of 1997, as compared to the first six months of 1996. Income taxes were impacted by the reduction in the deferred tax assets valuation allowance which produced a corresponding income tax benefit of $2,300,000 recorded in the second quarter of 1997. See Note 4 of notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for a more detailed explanation of this adjustment. The Company reported net income of $2,176,000 ($0.55 per share) during the second quarter of 1997, compared to net income of $1,471,000 ($0.38 per share/$0.36 fully diluted) during the second quarter of 1996. For the first six months of 1997, the Company recorded net income of $1,688,000 ($0.43 per share), compared to net income of $1,974,000 ($0.51 per share/$0.49 fully diluted) in the first six months of 1996. During the second quarter of 1997, net income was unfavorably impacted by the loss (net of tax benefits) on the sale of the Corson Lime Company assets of $405,000 ($0.10 per share) and favorably impacted by the recognition of previously reserved deferred tax assets of $2,300,000 ($0.59 per share). 8 9 PART II.
