Notes to Financial Statements


June 28, 2003

1)

The accompanying unaudited statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. 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 considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 28, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

 

 

The balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

 

 

 

For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's 2002 annual report.

 

 

 

On March 14, 2003, MOD-PAC CORP. was spun off from Astronics Corporation (Astronics) by means of a tax-free distribution ("The Distribution") of all of the outstanding shares of MOD-PAC CORP.'s common stock and Class B Stock. The Astronics Board of Directors set a one-for-two distribution ratio, in which (i) each Astronics common stock holder received one share of MOD-PAC CORP. common stock for every two shares of Astronics common stock owned on the record date for the Distribution and (ii) each Astronics Class B stock owner received one share of MOD-PAC CORP. Class B for every two shares of Astronics Class B stock owned on the record date for the Distribution. As a result of the Distribution , MOD-PAC CORP. became a separately traded, publicly held company.

 

 

 

At March 14, 2003 the Company paid Astronics all amounts due at the time of the spin-off with a portion of the proceeds of a $10 million term loan facility with HSBC Bank USA. At June 28, 2003 the Company has $10 million outstanding under the term loan facility, which is repayable over seven years beginning in August 2003. Interest is paid monthly at floating rates 125 basis points over LIBOR.

 

 

 

Prior to the Distribution, the Company was recapitalized. Astronics exchanged its existing shares of MOD-PAC CORP. common stock for approximately 2,934,489 share of MOD-PAC CORP. Common stock and approximately 1,010,912 shares of MOD-PAC CORP. Class B stock. The accompanying financial statements give retroactive effect to this recapitalization.

 

 

 

The Company accounts for its stock-based awards using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and its related interpretations. The measurement prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25 does not recognize compensation expense if the exercise price of the stock option equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, no compensation expense related to stock options has been recorded in the financial statements.

 

 

 

For purpose of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the MOD-PAC stock options at the date of grant is amortized to expense over the option's vesting period. The Company's pro forma information for the 2003 and 2002 are presented in the table below.

NET SALES

For the second quarter of 2003 net sales were $9.4 million compared with $7.2 million in 2002, an increase of 30.4%. This increase of $2.2 million was due to the $2.0 million increase in short run commercial printing net sales and a $0.2 million increase in net sales for the custom folding carton product line..

 

 

 

Net sales for the first half of 2003 were $18.6 million compared to $14.8 million, an increase of $3.8 million or 25.7%. This was due to the $3.7 million increase in short run commercial printing net sales and a $0.1 million increase in net sales for the custom folding carton product line..

 

 

 

 

EXPENSES AND MARGINS

Cost of products sold as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 28, 2003 was 77.0% compared to 76.4% for the second quarter of 2002, an increase of 0.6%, because of costs associated with increased capacity to meet current and future demand.

 

 

 

Similarly, cost of products sold as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended June 28, 2003 was 75.7% compared to 75.4% for the first half of 2002, an increase of 0.3%, because of capacity increases.

 

 

 

Selling, general and administrative costs, as a percentage of net sales, is slightly improved to 16.7 %, for the three months ended June 28, 2003 compared to 16.9% for the three months ended June 29, 2002 a decrease of 0.2%. However, when applied to higher net sales this equates to an increase of $351,000 to $1,572,000 in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $1,221,000 in the second quarter 2002. This increase is reflective of higher administrative employee costs due to our expansion, and costs associated with the transition to, and being, a separate public company. This increase and the reasons for the increase are consistent with what we experienced during the first quarter of 2003. As a result, selling, general and administrative costs for the first half of 2003 was up $659,000 to $3,062,000 from $2,403,000 in the first half of 2002.

 

 

 

As a result of the 0.5% increase, as a percentage of net sales, in cost of products sold offset by the 0.2% decrease, as a percentage of net sales, in selling, general and administrative costs, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), as a percentage of net sales, was down 0.3% to 6.3% in the second quarter 2003 from 6.7% in the second quarter 2002. For the year to date comparisons, EBIT was down 0.5% of net sales to 7.8% compared to 8.3% because cost of products sold increased 0.3% as a percentage of net sales and selling, general and administrative costs increased 0.2% of net sales.

 

 

 

Interest expense increased to $58,000 for the quarter and $68,000 for the year-to-date in 2003 compared to $4,000 for the quarter and $7,000 for the year-to-date in 2002. This is mainly a result of the borrowings to finance our expansion. Most of which occurred since March 17, 2003, the date of the spin-off.

 

 

TAXES

Income tax rates were slightly lower for the quarter 2003 compared to 2002, 36.0% compared to 36.6% in 2002, due to state taxes. For the year to date the tax rates were 36.4% in both 2003 and 2002.

 

 

NET INCOME
AND EARNINGS PER
SHARE

Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $345,000, up $42,000 or 13.9%, from the 2002 second quarter; diluted earnings per share were $.09 compared to $.07. For the first half of 2003, our bottom line performance was $872,000 compared to last year's first half performance of $780,000, an increase of $92,000 or 11.8%.

 

 

 

Average shares outstanding for purposes of the diluted earnings per share calculation were 6.5% lower in 2003 compared to 2002, which impacted the calculation by $0.01 per share.

 

 

LIQUIDITY

Cash provided by operating activities was $1,463,000 during the first half of 2003. Net income plus depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses was $2,834,000, which was offset by an increase in working capital components of $1,371,000. Cash provided by operating activities was $2,029,000 during the first half of 2002. Net income plus depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses was $2,531,000, which was offset by an increase in working capital components of $502,000.

 

 

 

The Company's capital expenditures of $6,470,000 for the first half of 2003 were up by $5,552,000 from 2002 level. In the first half of 2003 we continued and nearly completed the expansion program started in September of 2002. This program increases our printing capacity by over 50% and will enable us to produce our own electric power in order to have a sufficient, stable and scaleable power source for our current and future needs.

 

 

 

To fund our expansion we borrowed $10 million under a term-loan facility. Interest on the loan is at 1.25% over LIBOR and the principal must be repaid quarterly over seven years. We have a $6 million dollar line of credit facility available to us. At June 28, 2003 we borrowed $1,450,000 on this line of credit. Interest on the line of credit is also at 1.25% over LIBOR.

 

 

COMMITMENTS

The Company has commitments for items that it purchases in the normal on-going affairs of the business. The Company is not aware of any obligations in excess of normal market conditions, nor of any long-term commitments that would have a material adverse affect on its financial condition.

 

 

MARKET RISK

Risks due to fluctuation in interest rates is a function of the Company's floating rate debt obligations that total $11,450,000 at June 28, 2003. As a result, a change of 1% in interest rates would impact annual net income by approximately $73,000.

 

 

CRITICAL

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting policies requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. In developing such estimates, management evaluates the facts known to it at the time and applies such facts within the framework of certain critical accounting policies that govern valuation allowances of the Company's assets. These policies include determining the need for a valuation allowance with respect to doubtful accounts receivable, lower of cost or market reserves related to the Company's inventories, depreciation allowances and impairment reserves with respect to the Company's long-lived assets and valuation allowances with respect to the realizability of deferred tax assets. Often, management must make certain assumptions about the future when applying these policies. Management uses past experience in developing such assumptions about the future. Actual experience will be different than the assumptions made and differences could result in material adjustments to management's estimates.

Specifically and with respect to deferred tax assets, MOD-PAC had a gross deferred tax asset at June 28, 2003 of $1.5 million, which relates primarily to New York State Investment Tax Credits. These credits are subject to certain statutory provisions, such as the length of available carry forward period and minimum tax, which reduces the probability of realization of the full value of such credits. Management established a valuation allowance of $0.7 million for these credits based on actual historical realization rates and the statutory carry forward period. The valuation allowance is reviewed at least annually.

 

 

NEW ACCOUNTING
PRONOUNCEMENTS

There are no recently issued accounting standards that will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, Costs Associated with Disposal Activities. This new accounting standard is effective for our 2003 fiscal year and no material impact on our financial position or results of operations is expected because we do not expect to engage in any asset disposal nor exit any activities in the foreseeable future.
