6 NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The interim financial statements of Hitox Corporation of America (the "Company") are unaudited, but include all adjustments which the Company deems necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and results of operations. All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All significant accounting policies conform to those previously set forth in the Company's fiscal 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Reclassification Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' condensed financial statements to conform to present reporting classifications. Stock Based Compensation The Company grants stock options for a fixed number of shares to employees with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. The Company has accounted for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and, accordingly, recognized no compensation expense for the stock option grants. The Company will not adopt FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and will continue to account for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25. FASB Statement 123 requires certain disclosures about stock- based compensation plans for all companies regardless of the method used to account for them. Effective in 1996 calendar year-end financial statements, companies that continue to apply APB 25 will be required to disclose pro forma information as if the measurement provisions of Statement 123 had been adopted in their entirety. 2. Debt On August 31, 1995, the Company entered into a new loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with NationsBank of Texas, N.A., (the "Bank"). The Loan Agreement extends the maturity of a mortgage note on the Company's headquarters building which had a principal balance of $435,000 on June 30, 1996. The mortgage note is payable in 77 equal monthly installments of $8,390 each, 7 including principal and interest, at an interest rate of 9.5%, and matures February 28, 2002. The Loan Agreement also increases the amount of the Company's revolving line of credit from $1,400,000 to $2,000,000, and extends the maturity date until April 30, 1997. The line of credit provides for monthly interest payments on any outstanding principal balance at an interest rate of the Bank's prime rate plus 1%. The Company had no outstanding balance on the line of credit at June 30, 1996. Both the line of credit and the mortgage note are secured by the office building, inventory and accounts receivable. The Loan Agreement contains covenants which, among other things, require maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants for the quarter ended June 30, 1996. On June 30, 1996, the Company had $5,000,000 outstanding in subordinated debenture notes (the "Debentures"), due June 15, 1999, interest payable monthly, with $500,000 quarterly principal repayments to begin on September 15, 1997. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Debenture's governing instrument for the quarter ended June 30, 1996. 3. Commitments The Company purchases raw materials under a supply agreement (the "Supply Agreement"). The Supply Agreement contains a take or pay arrangement for specified quantities on a yearly basis, with a fixed price for the first two years of its five year term. The Company anticipates that it will need and take delivery of the quantities stipulated in the Supply Agreement. 4. Sale of Common Stock and Partial Prepayment of Debentures On June 26, 1996, the Company completed the previously announced sale of 1,000,000 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share to Syarikat Megawati Sdn. Bhd. ("Syarikat Megawati"). Syarikat Megawati is the majority owner of Malaysian Titanium Corporation, which supplies the Company with its primary raw material, synthetic rutile. The $4,000,000 proceeds from the sale were used to prepay $4,000,000 of the outstanding principal balance on the Debentures on July 1, 1996. 5. Subsequent Events On July 31, 1996, the Company executed an amended loan agreement with the Bank (the "Amended Loan Agreement"). The Amended Loan Agreement provides a new $1,000,000 term loan (the "Term Loan") to the Company, with an interest rate of 8.17% per annum. The repayment terms of the Term Loan provide for monthly payments of interest only until December 31, 1996, with monthly payments of principal and interest of $31,415 beginning January 31, 1997, with the final payment due on January 31, 2000. The proceeds of the Term Loan were used to prepay the remaining $1,000,000 principal balance on the Debentures on July 31, 1996. Also as part of the Amended Loan Agreement, the expiration date of the Company's line of credit was extended from April 30, 1997 to April 30, 1998, and the interest rate was reduced from the Bank's prime rate plus 1.0% to the Bank's prime rate plus 0.75%. The Amended Loan Agreement also reduces the 8 interest rate on the mortgage note on the building which includes the Company's corporate headquarters from 9.5% to 9.0%. 9 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Sales: Net sales for the second quarter of 1996 were $2,953,000 as compared to $3,204,000 for the same quarter in 1995. Total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $5,655,000 compared with $5,872,000 for the same period in 1995. The three month and six month decreases of approximately $251,000 and $217,000, respectively, are due to decreases in sales quantities, which are a result of general softness in the titanium dioxide pigment market, both domestically and abroad, as well as continued weakness in the PVC market. Titanium dioxide prices have fallen on weak demand as users have worked off excess inventories purchased in 1995. Gross Profit: Gross profit for the second quarter of 1996 was $886,000, as compared to $1,082,000 for the second quarter of 1995, a decrease of $196,000. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 30.0% in the second quarter this year as compared to 33.8% in the same quarter last year. The year to date gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $1,617,000, or 28.6% of net sales compared with $1,835,000, or 31.3% of net sales for the same period of 1995. The decrease in gross profit percentage for 1996 compared with 1995 is primarily the result of higher raw material costs in 1996, which had been expected. Expenses: Total selling, administrative and general expenses declined from $645,000 during the second quarter of 1995, to $570,000 for the second quarter of 1996, representing a decrease of approximately 11.6%. Total selling, administrative and general expenses decreased from $1,140,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1995, to $1,086,000 for the same period of 1996, representing approximately a 4.7% decrease. The net decrease in 1996 total selling, administrative and general expenses compared with 1995 was accomplished in spite of an increase in selling expenses for 1996, which was more than offset by a decrease in administrative and general expenses, primarily from reductions in professional fees and other cost reductions. Interest Income: During the second quarter of 1996, excess funds were deposited in short- term interest bearing investments resulting in interest income of $5,000. Total interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $8,000. Interest income for the second quarter and first half of 1995 was $8,000 and $32,000, respectively. Included in the six month total for 1995 is $20,000 resulting from a one time foreign currency transaction gain. 10 Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased $16,000 in the second quarter of 1996 as compared with the same quarter last year. For the six month period ended June 30, 1996, interest expense decreased $43,000, compared with 1995. Interest expense was higher in 1995 because the Company accrued additional interest on unpaid interest related to its subordinated debentures (the "Debentures"), because the Company's bank prohibited making payments to the Debenture holders. That situation was resolved with the signing of a new loan agreement in August of 1995. In 1996, all scheduled payments to the Debenture holders have been timely made. Provision for Income Tax: The Company has net operating loss and other carry forwards available to offset the Company's regular taxable income. However, the Company is subject to alternative minimum tax. Provision for income tax was $1,000 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1995. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At the end of June, the Company completed the previously announced sale of 1,000,000 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share. The result was an unusually large working capital position at June 30, 1996 of $8,744,000, which included $4,335,000 in cash. The cash balance was drawn down to prepay $4,000,000 in outstanding 10.5% subordinated debentures at par on July 1, 1996. After considering the effect of the payoff of the Debentures on July 1, the Company's cash balance at June 30, 1996 would have been $335,000. The Company used a net $360,000 of cash in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996, primarily as a result of changes in working capital. Accounts receivable increased at June 30, 1996 compared with December 31, 1995, due to higher sales volumes, and inventory has increased due to the seasonal increase in raw material purchases. The Company on an ongoing basis will finance its operations principally through cash flows generated by operations, through bank financing and through cash on hand. The Company has a continuing need for working capital to finance raw material purchases, primarily synthetic rutile, which is now purchased under a supply agreement (the "Supply Agreement") with its former subsidiary, Malaysian Titanium Corporation. The Supply Agreement contains a take or pay arrangement for specified quantities on a yearly basis, with a fixed price for the first two years of its five year term. The Company anticipates that it will need and take delivery of the quantities stipulated in the Supply Agreement. 11 On August 31, 1995, the Company entered into a new loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with NationsBank of Texas, N.A., (the "Bank"). The Loan Agreement extends the maturity of a mortgage note on the Company's headquarters building which had a principal balance of $435,000 on June 30, 1996. The mortgage note is payable in 77 equal monthly installments of $8,390 each, including principal and interest, at an interest rate of 9.5%, and matures February 28, 2002. The Loan Agreement also increases the amount of the Company's revolving line of credit from $1,400,000 to $2,000,000, and extends the maturity date until April 30, 1997. The line of credit provides for monthly interest payments on any outstanding principal balance at an interest rate of the Bank's prime rate plus 1%. The Company had no outstanding balance on the line of credit at June 30, 1996. The Company owed $5,000,000 in subordinated debt (the "Debentures") at June 30, 1996. On July 1, 1996, the Company prepaid $4,000,000 of principal on the Debentures using proceeds from the sale of common stock. (See Note 4 of the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements). On July 31, 1996, the Company executed an amended loan agreement with the Bank (the "Amended Loan Agreement"). The Amended Loan Agreement provides a new $1,000,000 term loan (the "Term Loan") to the Company, with an interest rate of 8.17% per annum. The repayment terms of the Term Loan provide for monthly payments of interest only until December 31, 1996, with monthly payments of principal and interest of $31,415 beginning January 31, 1997, with the final payment due on January 31, 2000. The proceeds of the Term Loan were used to prepay the remaining $1,000,000 principal balance on the Debentures on July 31, 1996. Also as part of the Amended Loan Agreement, the expiration date of the Company's line of credit was extended from April 30, 1997 to April 30, 1998, and the interest rate was reduced from the Bank's prime rate plus 1.0% to the Bank's prime rate plus 0.75%. The Amended Loan Agreement also reduces the interest rate on the mortgage note on the building which includes the Company's corporate headquarters from 9.5% to 9.0%. 12 PART II Item 6.
