ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the three years ended March 31, 1999.
HIGHLIGHTS
On January 31, 2000 the Company announced that it would conduct a review of prior financial results. The Company also announced that it had retained the services of Mahoney Cohen & Company to assist in the review. The review has been completed and, as a result of its findings, the Company has restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999. It was determined that certain sales were improperly recognized including sales recognized in the incorrect period and certain costs and allowances were recorded in the incorrect period or improperly recorded. The restated adjustments reflect additional charges to sales, sales allowances, and costs of sales of $1,651,000. Accordingly, net income of $741,569 previously reported has been restated to reflect a net loss of $254,431, net of an income tax benefit of $655,000.
The Company designs, manufactures (through contractors) and markets high quality, popular priced "junior", "missy", and large size basic and fashion sportswear and other apparel for women and children. The Company primarily serves both mass merchandise and specialty retail store chains. The Company's products are manufactured in a variety of woven and knit fabrications.
In January 1998, the Company established the Smart Objects Sales group to sell junior and large size moderately priced domestic knit sweaters. Full scale operations started in Fall 1998.
In February 1998, the Company entered into a license agreement with the master licensee of the United States Polo Association to utilize the US Polo Association brand. The Company has not made certain payments under the agreement because of its belief that the licensor has breached the license agreement and has brought an action against the licensor and other parties (see Item 3 "Legal Proceedings").
In May 1998, the Company established its children's sales group. On June 19, 1998, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of children's wear manufacturer T.L.C. for Girls, Inc. ("TLC"), a debtor-in-possession under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankuptcy Code, for an aggregate purchase price of $630,000.
In July 1998, the Company entered into a license agreement for the "Bongo" trademark. The initial term of the agreement extends to June 2002 and requires certain guaranteed minimum royalties. The Company has been merchandising large size women's clothing under this license.
In July 1998, the Company formed a sales group for dresses under the name "Impatiens" to sell petite, missy and large size moderate price dresses.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth, for the year indicated, the Company's statements of operations data as a percentage of net sales.
YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, ----------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 1997 -------------- -------------- -------- Net Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of Sales 81.0 81.1 82.2 ---------- -------- --------- Gross Profit 19.0 18.9 17.8 Operating Expenses 18.5 16.0 15.5 ---------- -------- --------- Income from operations 0.5 2.9 2.3 Interest Expense 1.1 0.7 1.7 ---------- -------- --------- Income Before Income Taxes 0.6 2.2 0.6 Provision for Income Taxes 0.2 0.9 0.2 ---------- -------- --------- Net Income 0.4% 1.3% 0.4% ========== ======== =========
Year Ended March 31, 1999 Compared with Year Ended March 31, 1998
Net sales of $59.2 million in the year ended March 31, 1999 represented an increase of $16.6 million, or 39.0% over net sales of $42.6 million in the year ended March 31, 1998. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to the addition of the Company's sweater sales groups (Smart Objects) and its children's sales group (TLC) with sales of $3.1 million and $7.1 million, respectively. In addition, the Company's established core sales groups (Jenna Lane and Jenna Lane Women), representing domestic and import products, experienced strong demand.
The Company's gross profit increased $3.2 million, or 40%, to $11.2 million for the year ended March 31, 1999 from $8.0 million for the year ended March 31, 1998. Gross profit margin remained unchanged at approximately 19% in the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.
Operating expenses increased $4.1 million, or 60.6%, to $10.9 million in the year ended March 31, 1999 from $6.8 million in the year ended March 31, 1998. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.1 million in payroll and related costs, including $772,000 in increased selling salaries, as well as $377,000 in selling-related expenses, which resulted from increased sales volume.
5
Factoring costs increased $171,000 as a result of higher sales volume.
As a result of the above factors, income from operations decreased 74.3% from $1.2 million in the year ended March 31, 1998 to a loss of $0.3 million in the year ended March 31, 1999.
Interest expense increased from $322,000 in 1998 to $667,000 in 1999. This increase is primarily the result of additional borrowing for working capital needs and capital lease obligations.
Year Ended March 31, 1998 Compared with Year Ended March 31, 1997
Net sales of $42.6 million in the year ended March 31, 1998 represented an increase of $7.2 million, or 20.3% over net sales of $35.4 million in the year ended March 31, 1997. The increase in net sales was primarily attributable to continued expansion of the customer base and increased volume from several existing customers.
The Company's gross profit increased $1.7 million, or 28.1%, to $8.0 million for the year ended March 31, 1998 from $6.3 million for the year ended March 31, 1997. Gross profit margin increased to 18.9% in the year ended March 31, 1998 from 17.8% in the year ended March 31, 1997. The increase in gross profit margin resulted primarily from higher import sales volume. Gross profit from import sales is generally higher than gross profit from domestically produced merchandise.
Operating expenses increased $1.3 million, or 24.1%, to $6.8 million in the year ended March 31, 1998 from $5.5 million in the year ended March 31, 1997. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $728,000 in payroll and related costs, including $407,000 in increased selling salaries, as well as $220,000 in selling-related expenses which resulted from increased sales volume. Factoring costs decreased $45,000 as a result of lower commission rates, however, a $156,000 credit loss was incurred during the year relating to Montgomery Ward's bankruptcy filing.
As a result of the above factors, income from operations increased 54.3% from $805,000 in the year ended March 31, 1997 to $1.2 million in the year ended March 31, 1998.
Interest expense decreased from $596,000 in 1997 to $322,000 in 1998. This decrease is primarily attributable to the repayment of promissory notes issued in November 1995 and repaid in March 1997 from the proceeds of the Company's initial public offering.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since its formation in 1995, the Company has financed its operations and met its capital requirements primarily through funds raised from its founders, three private placement offerings, as well as borrowings under its factoring arrangements, vendor financing and, to a lesser extent, equipment financing. In March 1997, the Company completed an initial public offering of investment units resulting in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, of $5,352,000. These financing activities provided net cash of $4.6 million in fiscal 1997, $15,000 in fiscal 1998 and used $224,000 in fiscal 1999.
6
Operating activities used net cash of $3.9 million in fiscal 1997, $24,000 in fiscal 1998 and provided net cash of $1.1 million in fiscal 1999. The principal uses of operating cash are to purchase fabric and manufacture its products, purchase import finished goods and financing accounts receivable. Inventory levels increased as result of the corresponding increased production to support the growth in sales, continued expansion of import product categories and the timing of Spring '99 shipments to customers.
The Company's capital expenditures totaled $175,000, $362,000 and $1,060,000 in fiscal 1997, 1998 1999, respectively. These capital expenditures were for computer, material handling, design and office equipment, associated with upgrading information technology and its core business systems as well as improvements to its new warehouse and distribution center and administrative offices. $933,000 of the 1999 expenditures have been financed through a leasing company. The Company does not have any material commitments for capital expenditures at this time. Also, included in the $818,000 of net cash used in investing activities is $630,000 which was used in the acquisition of TLC.
Year 2000 Computer Issues
What is commonly known as the "Year 2000 Issue" arises because many computer hardware and software systems use only two digits to represent the year. As a result, these systems and programs may not calculate dates beyond 1999, which may cause errors in information or system failures.
With respect to its internal systems, the Company is taking appropriate steps to remediate the year 2000 issues and does not expect the costs of these efforts to be material. However, the year 2000 readiness of the Company's suppliers may vary. While the Company does not believe the year 2000 matters discussed above will have a material impact on its business, financial condition or results of operations, it is uncertain whether or to what extent the Company may be affected by such matters.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" which requires entities to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. The Company is not currently affected by SFAS No. 133.
