NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1 |
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported net earnings. |
The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Sales of our frozen beverages and frozen juice bars and ices are generally higher in our third and fourth quarters due to warmer weather.
While we believe that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 28, 2013.
Note 2 |
We recognize revenue from our products when the products are shipped to our customers. Repair and maintenance equipment service revenue is recorded when it is performed provided the customer terms are that the customer is to be charged on a time and material basis or on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract when the customer has signed a service contract. Revenue is recognized only where persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, our price is fixed or estimable and collectability is reasonably assured. We record offsets to revenue for allowances, end-user pricing adjustments, trade spending, coupon redemption costs and returned product. Customers generally do not have the right to return product unless it is damaged or defective. We provide an allowance for doubtful receivables after taking into consideration historical experience and other factors. The allowance for doubtful receivables was $820,000 and $854,000 at March 29, 2014 and September 28, 2013, respectively. |
Note 3 |
Depreciation of equipment and buildings is provided for by the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Amortization of improvements is provided for by the straight-line method over the term of the lease or the assets’ estimated useful lives, whichever is shorter. Licenses and rights, customer relationships and non-compete agreements arising from acquisitions are amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 3 to 20 years. Depreciation expense was $7,903,000 and $7,074,000 for the three months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, respectively, and for the six months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 was $15,591,000 and $13,864,000 respectively. |
Note 4 |
Basic earnings per common share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS takes into consideration the potential dilution that could occur if securities (stock options) or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. Our calculation of EPS is as follows: |

At March 29, 2014, the Company has three stock-based employee compensation plans. Share-based compensation was recognized as follows: |

The above compensation is net of tax benefits |
$ | 85 | $ | 132 | $ | 164 | $ | 356 |
The Company anticipates that share-based compensation will not exceed $1.7 million net of tax benefits, or approximately $.09 per share for the fiscal year ending September 27, 2014.
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in fiscal 2014 first six months: expected volatility of 20.6%; risk-free interest rate of 1.4%; dividend rate of .8% and expected lives of 5 years.
During the 2014 six month period, the Company granted 98,975 stock options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these options was $15.21. During the 2013 six month period, the Company granted 1,100 stock options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of these options was $12.24.
Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common shares over the past 55 months for 5 year options and 10 years for 10 year options. We use historical information to estimate expected life and forfeitures within the valuation model. The expected term of awards represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation cost is recognized using a straight-line method over the vesting or service period and is net of estimated forfeitures.
Note 6 |
We account for our income taxes under the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. |
Additionally, we recognize a liability for income taxes and associated penalties and interest for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return which are more likely than not to be overturned by taxing authorities (“uncertain tax positions”). We have not recognized a tax benefit in our financial statements for these uncertain tax positions.
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits is $420,000 and $438,000 on March 29, 2014 and September 28, 2013, respectively, all of which would impact our effective tax rate over time, if recognized. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a part of the provision for income taxes. As of March 29, 2014 and September 28, 2013, respectively, the Company has $222,000 and $224,000 of accrued interest and penalties.
In addition to our federal tax return and tax returns for Mexico and Canada, we file tax returns in all states that have a corporate income tax with virtually all open for examination for three to four years.
Note 7 |
In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance which requires us to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, we are required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, we are required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. This guidance was effective for our fiscal year 2014 first quarter and its adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements. |

We principally sell our products to the food service and retail supermarket industries. Sales and results of our frozen beverages business are monitored separately from the balance of our food service business because of different distribution and capital requirements. We maintain separate and discrete financial information for the three operating segments mentioned above which is available to our Chief Operating Decision Makers. |
We have applied no aggregation criteria to any of these operating segments in order to determine reportable segments. Our three reportable segments are Food Service, Retail Supermarkets and Frozen Beverages. All inter-segment net sales and expenses have been eliminated in computing net sales and operating income (loss). These segments are described below.
Food Service

Amortized intangible assets are being amortized by the straight-line method over periods ranging from 3 to 20 years and amortization expense is reflected throughout operating expenses. Intangible assets of $849,000 were acquired in the food service segment in the New York Pretzel acquisition in the three months ended December 28, 2013. Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets for the three months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 was $1,143,000 and $1,113,000, respectively and for the six months ended March 29,2014 and March 30, 2013 was $2,286,000 and $2,232,000, respectively.
Estimated amortization expense for the next five fiscal years is approximately $4,600,000 in 2014, $4,500,000 in 2015 and $4,300,000 in 2016, $1,800,000 in 2017 and $1,000,000 in 2018. The weighted average amortization period of the intangible assets is 10.1 years.

Note 11 |
We have classified our investment securities as marketable securities held to maturity and available for sale. The FASB defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the FASB has established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: |
Level 1 |
Observable input such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
Level 2 |
Observable inputs, other than Level 1 inputs in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and |
Level 3 |
Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
Marketable securities held to maturity and available for sale values are derived solely from level 1 inputs.
The amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses, and fair market values of our investment securities held to maturity at March 29, 2014 are summarized as follows:

The mutual funds seek current income with an emphasis on maintaining low volatility and overall moderate duration. The funds do not have contractual maturities; however, we classify them as long term assets as it is our intent to hold them for a period of over one year, although we may sell some or all of them depending on presently unanticipated needs for liquidity or market conditions. The unrealized losses of $1,577,000 are spread over 22 funds with total fair market value of $82.2 million.

Note 12 |
In June 2012, we acquired the assets of Kim & Scott’s Gourmet Pretzels, Inc., a manufacturer and seller of a premium brand soft pretzel. This business had sales of approximately $8 million over the prior twelve months to food service and retail supermarket customers and had sales of approximately $1.8 million in our 2012 fiscal year from the acquisition date. |
In October 2013, we acquired the assets of New York Pretzel, a manufacturer and distributor of soft pretzels selling primarily in the northeast to foodservice and retail locations. Of the purchase price of $11.8 million, $849,000 was allocated to intangible assets, $7,716,000 was allocated to goodwill and $3,049,000 was allocated to property, plant and equipment.
These acquisitions were and will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and their operations are and will be included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates.
The goodwill and intangible assets acquired in the business combinations are recorded at fair value. To measure fair value for such assets, we use techniques including discounted expected future cash flows (Level 3 input).

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our current cash and cash equivalents balances and cash expected to be provided by future operations are our primary sources of liquidity. We believe that these sources, along with our borrowing capacity, are sufficient to fund future growth and expansion. See Note 11 to these financial statements for a discussion of our investment securities.
The Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $.32 per share of its common stock payable on April 3, 2014, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 14, 2014.
In our fiscal year ended September 28, 2013, we purchased and retired 204,397 shares of our common stock at a cost of $14,500,215. We did not purchase any shares in the six months ended March 29, 2014. On November 8, 2012 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase and retirement of an additional 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock; 343,858 shares remain to be purchased under this authorization.
In the three months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 fluctuations in the valuation of the Mexican and Canadian currencies and the resulting translation of the net assets of our Mexican and Canadian subsidiaries caused an increase of $172,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2014 second quarter and an decrease of $570,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2013 second quarter. In the six month period, fluctuations in the valuation of the Mexican and Canadian currencies and the resulting translation of the net assets of our Mexican and Canadian subsidiaries caused an increase of $276,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2014 six month period and a decrease of $447,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the 2013 six month period.
Our general-purpose bank credit line which expires in December 2016 provides for up to a $50,000,000 revolving credit facility. The agreement contains restrictive covenants and requires commitment fees in accordance with standard banking practice. There were no outstanding balances under this facility at March 29, 2014.
Results of Operations
Net sales increased $3,995,000 or 2% to $205,321,000 for the three months and $16,110,000 or 4% to $408,844,000 for the six months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the three and six months ended March 30, 2013.
We believe our sales, and to a lesser extent, our costs, were impacted by the severe weather which occurred in many parts of the country during the current three month period; although we are unable to quantify the impact on our operating income. Most of our product sales are to consumers at snack bar and food stand locations, restaurants and schools so to the extent that traffic was reduced at these locations because of weather, our sales were affected.
FOOD SERVICE
Sales to food service customers increased $2,936,000 or 2% in the second quarter to $138,329,000 and increased $11,529,000 or 4% for the six months. Excluding sales resulting from the acquisition of New York Pretzel in October 2013, food service sales increased approximately 1.5% for the second quarter and increased 4% for the six months. Soft pretzel sales to the food service market increased 10% to $38,815,000 in the second quarter and increased 15% to $78,123,000 in the six months due to increased sales to restaurant chains, warehouse club stores, school food service and throughout our customer base. Increased sales to one customer accounted for approximately 1/2 of the increase in pretzel sales in the quarter and 40% in the six months. Without New York Pretzel, pretzel sales increased about 7% for the second quarter and 13% for the six months. Frozen juices and ices sales increased 17% to $11,857,000 in the three months and 14% to $20,086,000 in the six months resulting from sales increases primarily to warehouse club stores. Churro sales to food service customers decreased 5% to $13,430,000 in the second quarter and were down 2% to $27,381,000 for the six months which was net of a decline in sales of $465,000 in the quarter and $1,229,000 in the six months to one restaurant chain which rolled out a churros product in the year ago period.
Sales of bakery products decreased $915,000 or 1% in the second quarter to $66,169,000 and were essentially unchanged at $135,245,000 for the six months as sales increases and decreases were spread throughout our customer base.
Sales of new products in the first twelve months since their introduction were approximately $2.1 million in this quarter and $4.6 million in the six months. Price increases accounted for approximately $1.3 million of sales in the quarter and $2.2 million in the six months and net volume increases, including new product sales as defined above and sales resulting from the acquisition of New York Pretzel, accounted for approximately $1.6 million of sales in the quarter and $9.3 million in the six months.
Operating income in our Food Service segment increased from $15,363,000 to $17,562,000 in the quarter and increased from $27,960,000 to $32,713,000 in the six months. Operating income for the quarter and six months benefited from increased sales volume, price increases and lower ingredient costs.
RETAIL SUPERMARKETS
Sales of products to retail supermarkets decreased $503,000 or 2% to $23,050,000 in the second quarter and decreased $1,042,000 or 2% to $43,214,000 in the six months. Soft pretzel sales for the second quarter were up 3% to $10,309,000 and were up 3% to $19,224,000 for the six months on a unit volume increase of 2% for the quarter and 2% for the six months. Sales of frozen juices and ices decreased $596,000 or 7% to $8,402,000 in the second quarter and were down 4% to $14,825,000 for the six months on a unit volume decrease of 8% in the quarter and 7% in the six months. Lower sales to one customer accounted for all of the sales decrease in both periods. Coupon redemption costs, a reduction of sales, decreased 9% or about $65,000 for the quarter and decreased 11% to $1,369,000 for the six months. Handheld sales to retail supermarket customers decreased 6% to $4,815,000 in the quarter and decreased 12% to $10,102,000 for the six months with sales increases and decreases throughout our customer base; however, sales to one customer were down over $700,000 for the second quarter and sales to two customers were down about $1.7 million for the six months as products introduced in the year ago period have not been successful.
Price increases accounted for approximately $300,000 of sales in the quarter and $1.0 million in the six months and net volume decreases, net of decreased coupon costs, accounted for approximately $800,000 of the sales decrease in this quarter and $2.0 million in the six months. Operating income in our Retail Supermarkets segment increased from $2,404,000 to $2,602,000 in the quarter and from $3,974,000 to $4,566,000 in the six months primarily because of higher gross margins because of product mix and lower coupon expense.
FROZEN BEVERAGES
Frozen beverage and related product sales increased 4% to $43,942,000 in the second quarter and increased 7% to $88,521,000 in the six month period. Beverage related sales alone were up 6% to $26,713,000 in the second quarter and were up 3% to $51,902,000 in the six month period. Gallon sales were up 5% for the three months and were up 2% for the six month period. Service revenue increased 3% to $13,135,000 in the second quarter and increased 9% to $26,744,000 for the six month period with sales increases and decreases spread throughout our customer base.
Sales of beverage machines, which tend to fluctuate from year to year while following no specific trend, were $186,000 or 5% lower in the second quarter and were $2,289,000 or 33% higher in the six month period. The approximate number of company owned frozen beverage dispensers was 46,500 and 44,700 at March 29, 2014 and September 28, 2013, respectively. Operating income in our Frozen Beverage segment was $168,000 in this quarter and $1,024,000 for the six months compared to $1,392,000 and $2,286,000; respectively, last year as higher operating expenses in these seasonally low periods offset the benefits of increased sales. Group health insurance and liability insurance costs were higher by about $900,000 in the quarter and $800,000 in the six months compared to last year due primarily to an unusually high level of medical claims under our self-insured group health insurance program.
CONSOLIDATED
Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 29.76% in the three month period from 28.88% last year and increased to 29.60% in the six month period from 28.59% a year ago. Higher volume in our food service segment was the primary reason for the improved gross profit margin in the six month period while lower ingredients costs benefitted both the three and six month periods.
Total operating expenses increased $1,789,000 in the second quarter and as a percentage of sales increased from 19.37% percent to 19.86%. About 1/3 of the increase in total operating expenses were higher group health insurance costs due primarily to an unusually high level of medical claims under our self-insured group health insurance program. For the first half, operating expenses increased $4,650,000, and as a percentage of sales increased from 19.88% to 20.23%. Operating expenses in the six months this year include $800,000 of other general expenses for shutdown costs of our Norwalk, CA manufacturing facility as well as about $500,000 of higher group health insurance costs. Marketing expenses increased from 8.3% to 8.5% of sales in the quarter and increased from 8.6% to 8.7% of sales in the six months. Distribution expenses were 8.0% of sales in this year’s quarter and were 7.8% of sales in last year’s quarter, and were 7.9% of sales in both years’ six month period. Administrative expenses were 3.3% of sales this quarter and 3.4% for the six month period as compared to 3.2% of sales last year in the second quarter and 3.3% for the six months.
Operating income increased $1,173,000 or 6% to $20,332,000 in the second quarter and increased $4,083,000 or 12% to $38,303,000 in the first half as a result of the aforementioned items.
Investment income increased by $80,000 and $442,000 in the second quarter and six months, respectively, due primarily to increased investments of marketable securities. We have investments of $128.7 million in mutual funds that seek current income with an emphasis on maintaining low volatility and overall moderate duration. We estimate the annual yield from these funds to approximate 3.5 – 3.75%.
The effective income tax rate has been estimated at 36.5% and 36.8% for the quarter this year and last year, respectively and 35.7% and 36.1% for the six months this year and last year, respectively. We are estimating an effective income tax rate of approximately 36% for the year.
Net earnings increased $861,000 or 7% in the current three month period to $13,521,000 and increased 13% to $25,947,000 for the six months this year from $22,886,000 as a result of the aforementioned items.
There are many factors which can impact our net earnings from year to year and in the long run, among which are the supply and cost of raw materials and labor, insurance costs, factors impacting sales as noted above, the continuing consolidation of our customers, our ability to manage our manufacturing, marketing and distribution activities, our ability to make and integrate acquisitions and changes in tax laws and interest rates.
