Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. Note B - Inventories Merchandise inventories, principally finished goods, are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market. Note C - Line of Credit Agreement The Company has available an unsecured $25,000,000 line of credit with a bank (the "Line") which may be used for short term borrowings or letters of credit. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had $12,500,000 of borrowings and $8,642,000 of letters of credit outstanding. The line is cancelable by either party at any time. Borrowings under the Line bear interest payable daily at a negotiated short term borrowing rate (6.625% at June 30, 1996). The Company is charged a nominal fee on the entire Line. Note D - Capital Stock Net Income Per Share: Net income per common share is based on net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares and equivalents outstanding during the periods. As of June 30, 1996, 698,732 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options. Note E - Farberware Acquisition On April 2, 1996, the Company acquired certain assets of Farberware, Inc. ("Farberware"). Under the terms of a joint venture agreed to by the Company and Syratech Corporation, the Company acquired a 99 year, royalty-free, exclusive right to use the Farberwarer name in connection with the product lines covered by its existing license agreement with Farberware. The Company also acquired all of the Farberwarer outlet stores. Rights to license the Farberwarer name for use by third parties are to be held by a joint venture, owned equally by the Company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Syratech Corporation. The purchase price consists of cash of $9.5 million plus the value of the outlet store inventory (estimated to be $3,100,000). Note F - Subsequent Events In July 1996, the Company issued incentive stock options to purchase 207,000 shares of common stock at $10.725, representing 110% of the market value at the date of the grant, to three officers of the Company. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth the operating data of the Company as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated below. Three Months Six Months Ended Ended June 30, June 30, 1996 1995 1996 1995 Net sales 100. % 100. % 100.0 % 100. % 0 0 0 Cost of sales 51.9 53.1 52.3 52.3 Gross profit 48.1 47.0 47.7 47.7 Selling, general and 37.2 36.3 35.1 34.4 administrative expenses Income from operations 10.9 10.7 12.6 13.3 Other (income), expense 1.2 (0.2 0.7 (0.1 ) ) Income before income taxes 9.7 10.8 11.9 13.4 Income taxes 3.7 4.3 4.6 5.2 Net Income 6.1 % 6.6 % 7.3 % 8.2 % Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Three Months ended June 30, 1995 Net SalesNet sales for the three months ended June 30, 1996 were $21.0 million, an increase of $5.4 or 34.9% from the comparable 1995 period. The sales growth was primarily due to net sales from the recently acquired Farberware Outlet Stores, net sales from the new Hoffritzr line and increased sales in the Smart Choice line. Gross Profit Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1996 was $10.1 million, an increase of $2.8 million or 38.2% over the comparable 1995 period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 48.1% as compared to 47.0% for the 1995 period. This increase is primarily due to a reduction of royalty expense due to the Farberware acquisition, partially offset by changes in product mix. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1996 were $7.8 million, an increase of $2.2 million or 38.1% from the comparable 1995 period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 37.2% during this three month period in 1996 as compared to 36.3% for the 1995 period. This percentage increase is primarily attributable to the operations of the Farberware Outlet Stores, partially offset by a decrease in personnel related costs. Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Six Months ended June 30, 1995 Net SalesNet sales for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $40.3 million, an increase of $6.0 million or 17.6% from the comparable 1995 period. The sales growth was primarily due to net sales from the recently acquired Farberware Outlet Stores, net sales from the new Hoffritzr line and increased sales in the Smart Choice line. Gross Profit Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $19.2 million, an increase of $2.9 million or 17.6% over the comparable 1995 period. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales remained constant at 47.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $14.1 million, an increase of $2.3 million or 19.9% from the comparable 1995 period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 35.1% during this six month period in 1996 as compared to 34.4% for the 1995 period. This percentage increase is primarily attributable to the operations of the Farberware Outlet Stores, partially offset by a decrease in personnel related costs. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has available an unsecured $25,000,000 line of credit with a bank (the "Line") which may be used for short term borrowings or letters of credit. Borrowings under the Line bear interest payable daily at a negotiated short term borrowing rate (6.625% at June 30, 1996). The Company is charged a nominal fee on the entire Line. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had $12,500,000 of borrowings and $8,642,000 of letters of credit outstanding under the Line and, as a result, the availability under the Line was $3,858,000. The Line is cancelable by either party at any time. At June 30, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $476,000 versus $90,000 at December 31, 1995, an increase of $386,000. The increase is primarily attributable to the Company's decreased accounts receivable offset by an increase in prepaid expenses, other current assets, and other assets. The purchase of the Farberware acquisition was funded by short term borrowings which were subsequently reduced by income from operations. The purchase price consists of cash of $9.5 million plus the value of the outlet store inventory (estimated to be $3,100,000). Products are sold to retailers primarily on 30-day credit terms, and to distributors primarily on 60-day credit terms. The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, internally generated funds and its existing credit arrangements will be sufficient to finance its operations for the next 12 months. The results of operations of the Company for the periods discussed have not been significantly affected by inflation or foreign currency fluctuation. The Company negotiates its purchase orders with its foreign manufacturers in United States dollars. Thus, notwithstanding any fluctuation in foreign currencies, the Company's cost for any purchase order is not subject to change after the time the order is placed. However, the weakening of the United States dollar against local currencies could lead certain manufacturers to increase their United States dollar prices for products. The Company believes it would be able to compensate for any such price increase. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security-Holders.
