NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

 

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Unaudited Financial Statements

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of T.J.T., Inc. (the “Company”) and the results of operations and cash flows.  Certain reclassifications of prior quarter amounts were made to conform with current quarter presentation, none of which affect previously recorded net income.

 

Stock Options

 

The Company has a stock option plan which allows officers, directors and key employees of the company to receive non-qualified and incentive stock options.  The Company awarded 20,000 stock options to directors during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 with exercise prices ranging from $.70 to $.80.  No options were granted during the quarter ended December 31, 2003.  All options granted will become vested at a rate of 20 percent each year for a period of five years from the grant date.  As of March 31, 2004, 350,000 shares of stock were available for future option grants.

 

As of October 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value method of accounting for stock options contained in Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  During the transition period, the Company will be utilizing the prospective method under SFAS No. 148 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosures.  Stock options granted subsequent to October 1, 2003 will be expensed over the stock option vesting period based on fair value which will be determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing method at the date the options are granted.  Stock-based compensation for the six months ending March 31, 2004 was $634; the net of tax impact on the financial statements for the period was $380 and because of rounding is not added back to reported net income in the table below.

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share as if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

 Operations

 

This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements which are based on management’s current expectations.  These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and other expressions that indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking statements.  The Company has identified risk factors which could cause actual results to differ substantially from the forward-looking statements.  These risk factors include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, availability of financing for both

manufactured home buyers and suppliers, real estate values, adverse weather conditions, the economic viability of our customers and vendors, and availability of qualified employees.  In addition, industry conditions that may have an adverse impact on future results include, but are not limited to, low barriers of entry, changes and/or enforcement in legislation or regulations, and competitive pressure on both the purchasing of used axles and tires from manufactured housing dealers and the selling of refurbished axles and tires to manufactured housing factories.

 

T.J.T., Inc. has two business lines: repairing and reconditioning axles and tires for the manufactured housing industry, and distribution of after-market accessory products to manufactured housing dealers and set-up contractors, as well as siding to site builders.

 

The Company has recycling and distribution locations in Emmett, Idaho; Woodland, California; Platteville, Colorado; and Chehalis, Washington.  The Company also manufactures hanger parts in Eugene, Oregon which are used by the manufactured housing producers to attach axles to homes.  The Company operates in Arizona and New Mexico through NewCo Axle & Tire, L.L.C. (“NewCo”), a joint venture limited liability corporation.  NewCo is investigating opportunities in the Texas market as well.

 

Results of Operations

 

The manufactured housing industry continues to experience lower production levels as a result of more restrictive credit standards and continuation of excessive repossessions.  In the Company’s market area manufactured housing shipments decreased four percent from the quarter ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2003 according to statistics from the National Conference of States on Building Codes and Standards.  Company net sales declined eight percent during that same period; however, net sales for the 2003 quarter included sales from the Arizona facility, which was closed in June of 2003.

 

The following table sets forth the operating data of the Company as a percentage of net sales for

Net Sales

 

Net sales declined $234,000 in the three months ending March 31, 2004, compared to the same quarter in 2003.  The five percent decline was a result of the closure of the Arizona location

which contributed $782,000 of net sales during the 2003 period.  Net sales of the remaining locations increased $548,000 or 14 percent.

 

Sales for the six month period ending March 31, 2004, declined eight percent or $775,000 as compared to the same period a year ago.  The Arizona location contributed $1,390,000 in sales during the six months ending March 31, 2003.  Sales at the remaining locations increased $614,000 in the current period as compared to the same six month period in 2003 as a result of higher volume of axle and tire sales partially offset by an $85,000 decrease in sales of dealer accessory items.

 

Gross Profit

 

The Company’s gross profit increased six percent in the three month period and five percent in the six month period ending March 31, 2004, as compared to the same three and six month periods a year ago.  The closure of the Arizona facility in June 2003 positively impacted gross margin by approximately three percent in the quarter ending March 31, 2004 and two percent during the six months ending March 31, 2004.  Increased efficiency due to higher sales volumes of continuing operations was also a major contributor.

 

Selling, General and Administrative

 

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by four and three percent during the three and six month periods of 2004 as compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2003.  The decrease was the result of reduced selling, general and administrative costs associated with the closure of the Arizona facility of $84,000 and $191,000 in the three month and six month periods respectively, which were partially offset by increased administrative expense at the California and Colorado locations, as well as increased corporate expense.

 

Net income

 

Net income for the quarter ending March 31, 2004, was $64,000 or $.01 per share compared to a loss of $155,000 or $.03 per share in the same period a year ago.  Net income for six months ending March 31, 2004, was $119,000 or $.03 per share compared to a loss of $149,000 or $.03 per share in the same period a year ago.  The increase was in part due to improved operating results at our California and Colorado locations.  The Company’s Arizona location had incurred losses prior to being closed in June 2003, which also contributed to the increase in net income for the six month 2004 period.

 

The Company recognized net income of $79,000 and $78,000 for three and six month periods ending March 31, 2004 associated with NewCo, the joint venture.  The Company entered into the joint venture with West States Recycling in June 2003 with a 50 percent ownership interest and receives 40 percent of the profit or loss.  In addition, the Company also receives rental income from equipment leased to the joint venture.

The Company’s decrease in net cash for the six months ended March 31, 2004 was $89,000.  Operating activities for the period provided cash flow of $84,000 compared to $700,000 of cash used for operations in the same six month period a year ago.  The change from period to period is primarily due to less inventory being purchased, positive net collections in accounts receivable, and a significant decrease in health insurance costs as a result of changing from a self-insured plan to a traditional health plan.

 

Net cash used by investing activities was $173,000 during the six months ended March 31, 2004 while investing activities during the same period in 2003 provided cash of $105,000.  During the period the Company invested approximately $122,000 in leasehold improvements made to the Chehalis, Washington site and the Eugene, Oregon facility.  The Company invested approximately $55,000 during the six month period in trailers and equipment primarily to assist with increasing sales volumes at the Colorado facility.

 

The Company expects that cash flow from operations combined with the line of credit will be a sufficient source of liquidity to fund operations.  The Company has a $350,000 revolving credit facility with a financial institution secured by receivables and inventory.  As of March 31, 2004, the Company has not borrowed on the line and is in compliance with all loan covenants.   The Company renewed the $350,000 line of credit on March 31, 2004 with the same financial institution.  The interest rate on the credit line is the prime rate plus one percent.
