SENECA FOODS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 30, 1995 1. Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Registrant as of December 30, 1995 and March 31, 1995 and results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended December 30, 1995 and December 24, 1994. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The March 31, 1995 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended December 30, 1995 and December 24, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accounting policies followed by the Registrant are set forth in Note 1 to the Registrant's financial statements in the 1995 Seneca Foods Corporation Annual Report and 10-K. Other 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 consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Registrant's March 31, 1995 financial report. 2. Primary earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, as the effect of common stock equivalents is anti-dilutive. 3. Off-Season Reserve is the excess of absorbed expenses over incurred expenses to date. The seasonal nature of the Registrant's Food Processing business results in a timing difference between expenses (primarily overhead expenses) incurred and absorbed into product cost. All Off-Season Reserve balances are zero at fiscal year end. 4. The Registrant changed its fiscal year end from July 31 to March 31 during Fiscal 1995. These financial statements reflect the prior year as if the fiscal year ended March 31. SENECA FOODS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) December 30, 1995 5. A proposed amendment to the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation which effected a recapitalization of the Registrant by creating a second class of Common Stock (which is being distributed to all common shareholders in the form of a stock dividend) was adopted at the Annual Meeting held on August 5, 1995. This recapitalization amendment (i) reclassifies the existing Common Stock as Class B Common Stock, (ii) authorizes a new class of 10,000,000 shares designated as Class A Common Stock and (iii) establishes the express terms of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock. The Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock have substantially identical rights with respect to any dividends or distributions of cash or property declared on shares of common stock and rank equally as to the right to receive proceeds on liquidation or dissolution of the Registrant after payment of the Registrant's indebtedness and liquidation right to the holders of preferred shares. However, holders of Class B Common Stock retain full vote per share whereas the holders of Class A Common Stock have voting rights of 1/20th of one vote per share on all matters as to which shareholders of the Registrant are entitled to vote. 6. The second quarter results included a nonrecurring charge of $15,078,000, before income tax benefit, due to combination of start-up costs related to the Pillsbury Alliance and severe drought conditions that New York State suffered during the entire summer. The Registrant undertook an ambitious capital expenditure program related to the Pillsbury Alliance. In the relatively short time between the February 1995 closing of the Pillsbury Alliance and the beginning of the 1995 vegetable pack, 37 separate major capital projects needed to be completed. There were some unforeseen problems related to a few of these projects, mostly in the New York plants. Some of the used equipment transferred from the closed plants had operating difficulties and was not always easily repaired, causing downtime. As a result, plant throughput and yields were poor at some plants causing unfavorable manufacturing variances. The problems were magnified when drought and hot weather conditions forced the uneven timing of maturities of vegetables. The nonrecurring charge was reduced during the third quarter by $1,416,000 to $13,662,000. This change is due to some of the expenses related to the charge being estimates which, as time passes, are becoming better defined. SENECA FOODS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) December 30, 1995 7. During the second quarter, Pillsbury agreed to delay the first two principal payments on the $73,025,000 subordinated promissory note until October 1998 with an option to convert the payments into the Registrant's equity. Each payment was to be $3,000,000. Pillsbury has exercised its option to convert the first two payments into Class A Common Stock. The conversion price was $17.3125 per share. Consequently, Seneca will be issuing 346,570 shares to Pillsbury when the necessary registration papers have been filed and approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission. 8. During the second quarter, the Registrant entered into a Sale/Leaseback transaction where three of its wastewater facilities in New York State were sold to the Wayne County Water and Sewer Authority with net proceeds of $9,000,000. 9. During the third quarter, the Registrant sold its Peabody, Massachusetts facility for cash, resulting in a gain of $4,279,000 before income tax expense. The Registrant had leased this facility to a third party. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS December 30, 1995 Results of Operations: Sales: Sales reflect an increase of 108.0% for the third quarter versus 1994. The higher sales, in large part, are due to higher canned vegetables quantities sold than the previous period and acquisitions made within the last year. Costs and Expenses: The following table shows cost and expenses as a percentage of sales:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended __________________ _________________ 12/30/95 12/24/94 12/30/95 12/24/94 ________ ________ ________ ________ Cost of Product Sold 92.7 88.3 89.9% 87.2% Selling 2.9 6.1 4.2 6.2 Administrative 0.9 2.8 1.4 3.1 Interest Expense 3.7 1.8 4.8 1.9 Nonrecurring Charge (0.7) - 3.3 - -------------------------------------------------- 99.5% 99.0% 103.6% 98.4% ====================================================
Higher Cost of Product Sold percentages (i.e. lower Gross Margins) reflect, in part, higher costs for vegetable and apple products than in the prior year due to the relatively short packs of vegetables throughout the U. S. and a worldwide shortage of apple. The Interest Expense is higher largely due to the debt issued to finance the acquisitions and capital expenditures made over the last year. Refer to the footnotes for the discussion of the Nonrecurring Charge. Income Taxes: The effective tax rate used in fiscal 1996 is 34% and in fiscal 1995 it is 29.4%. 1995 effective tax rate reflects a year-end adjustment to arrive at a 34.5% annual rate. Financial Condition: The financial condition of the Registrant is summarized in the following table and explanatory review (In Thousands):
For the Quarter For the Year Ended December Ended March _______________ ____________ 1995 1994 1995 1994 ____ ____ ____ ____ Working Capital Balance $89,808 $56,743 $132,870 $78,180 Quarter Change 3,187 (4,207) - - Notes Payable 120,950 44,550 - - Long-Term Debt 232,619 51,394 221,480 68,546 Current Ratio 1.53:1 1.57:1 3.16:1 2.67:1 Inventory (Average) Turnover 2.6 2.6 1.9 1.8
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS December 30, 1995 The Working Capital Balance is higher than the prior year largely due to acquisition of Green Giant assets in the prior year. When the Registrant acquired the Green Giant assets, it did not acquire the Finished Goods. Therefore, as the Registrant produces finished goods for Pillsbury, working capital needs increase accordingly. The increase in Working Capital for the quarter is due to part to the sale of the Peabody facility (see footnotes for discussion of the sale) which more than offset the Capital Expenditures for the quarter of $3,385,000. Capital Expenditures related to the Pillsbury Alliance exceeded their original projected costs due to unforeseen issues and time constraints. Overtime and outside contractor costs were high in an effort to complete the projects by the pack season (see footnotes for discussion of Nonrecurring Charge). The Registrant was not in compliance with certain debt covenants related to Long-Term Debt at December 30, 1995. However, subsequently all provisions have been met or waived. The Registrant is in the process of renegotiating certain of its Long-Term Debt covenants. Any amendment is subject to the approval of the short-term lenders. If the Long-Term Debt is not amended by February 28, 1996, then certain Short-Term Debt covenants will also be out of compliance. The Registrant anticipates the debt coventants will be amended by February 28, 1996. See Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for further details. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
