See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 3 STRATEGIC DISTRIBUTION, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements (dollars in thousands, except for share data) (unaudited) 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Strategic Distribution, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company"). These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions of Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of a normal and recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been included. The statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. 2. On November 11, 1996, the Company announced its intention to sell two of its subsidiaries, SSI and American Technical Services Group, Inc. ("ATSG"), in order to focus more directly on the development of the Company's In-Plant Store business. The Company believes it will be possible to consummate the sale of these two companies by June 30, 1997; there can be no guarantee, however, that the sales will be consummated by June 30, 1997. The results of operations of SSI and ATSG have, therefore, been presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements to conform with discontinued operations treatment. The presentation of the 1996 statement of operations has been reclassified as a result of the discontinued operations. 3. On January 28, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of INTERMAT International Materials Management, Inc. ("INTERMAT"). The purchase price consisted of $10,800 in cash, a $1,400 subordinated note, and 625,000 newly issued shares of the Company's common stock valued at $2,406. The source of the cash portion of the purchase price was utilization of available cash and cash equivalents. The method of accounting for this acquisition was the purchase accounting method. Accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values and amounts allocated to acquired in-process research and development have been expensed at the time of acquisition. The results of operations of INTERMAT are included in the Company's statements of operations from date of acquisition. Presented below are unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. The applicable pro forma adjustments give effect in 1996 and 1997 to the acquisition of INTERMAT as if such acquisition occurred on January 1 of each period. 4 Three Months Ended March 31, ---------------------------- 1997 1996 ---- ---- Revenues $34,884 $17,423 Loss from continuing operations $(8,963) $(1,740) Net loss per common share from continuing operations $ (0.30) $ (0.08) The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations disclose the results from continuing operations excluding charges or credits directly attributable to the transaction. One In-Plant Store-Registered Trademark- customer (with which the Company operates under six separate contracts) represented approximately 21% and 22% of pro forma revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. Another In-Plant Store customer (with which the Company operates under three separate contracts) represented approximately 12% of pro forma revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996, but less than 10% for the three months ended March 31, 1997. A third customer (with which the Company operates under one contract) represented approximately 11% of pro forma revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996, but less than 10% for the three months ended March 31, 1997. 5 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT FOR SHARE DATA) GENERAL Certain statements in this Item 2 constitute forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results in the future could differ significantly from the results discussed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the risk factors set forth under "Investment Considerations" in the Company's prospectus, dated May 20, 1996, filed under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company provides proprietary industrial supply procurement and handling solutions to industrial sites, primarily through its In-Plant Store-Registered Trademark- program. The Company became a provider of the In-Plant Store program on January 4, 1994. The Company conducts its operations primarily through its subsidiaries Industrial Systems Associates, Inc. ("ISA") and INTERMAT International Materials Management, Inc. ("INTERMAT"), which was acquired on January 28, 1997. At March 31, 1997, the Company had 80 In-Plant Store facilities. In late 1995, the Company formed two subsidiaries to operate in Mexico, Strategic Distribution Marketing de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. and Strategic Distribution Services de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (collectively "Mexico"). Mexico's operations are conducted in U.S. dollars and therefore the Company is not exposed to foreign currency translation adjustments. Mexico's revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 represented less than 1% of consolidated revenues. Two of the Company's subsidiaries, SafetyMaster Corporation ("SafetyMaster") and Lewis Supply (Delaware) Inc. were merged on May 24, 1996, with SafetyMaster the surviving corporation . SafetyMaster changed its name to Strategic Supply, Inc. ("SSI") on May 24, 1996. On November 11, 1996, the Company announced its intention to sell two of its subsidiaries, SSI and American Technical Services Group, Inc. ("ATSG"), in order to focus more directly on the development of the Company's In-Plant Store business. The Company believes it will be possible to consummate the sale of these two companies by June 30, 1997; there can be no guarantee, however, that the sales will be consummated by June 30, 1997. The results of operations of SSI and ATSG have, therefore, been presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 to conform with discontinued operations treatment. The presentation of the 1996 statement of operations has been reclassified as a result of the discontinued operations. 6 Cost of materials includes the cost of products. Operating wages and benefits and other operating expenses are the operating costs of the In-Plant Store facilities, as well as project related costs of INTERMAT. Selling, general and administrative expenses are those expenses not directly associated with operating activities. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table of revenues and percentages sets forth selected items of the results of operations. Three Months ended --------------------- 1997 1996 ------- ------- (dollars in thousands) Revenues $34,506 $16,508 100.0% 100.0% Cost of materials 79.9 80.7 Operating wages and benefits 9.7 8.5 Other operating expenses 2.6 1.7 Selling, general and administrative expenses 11.2 13.8 Acquired in-process research and development 23.2 - Operating loss (26.6) (4.7) Interest expense (income), net (1.0) (0.2) Loss from continuing operations (25.6) (4.9) Loss from discontinued operations - (7.0) Net loss (25.6) (11.9) THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased 109% to $34,506 from $16,508 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. This growth resulted primarily from the implementation of new In-Plant Store facilities and the inclusion of the results of operations of INTERMAT. The number of In-Plant Store facilities increased from 35 at March 31, 1996 to 80 at March 31, 1997. One In-Plant Store customer (with which the Company operates under six separate contracts) represented approximately 22% and 23% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. Another In-Plant Store customer (with which the Company operates under three separate contracts) represented approximately 13% of revenues for the three month ended March 31, 1996, but less than 10% for the three months ended March 31, 1997. A third customer (with which the Company operates under one contract) represented approximately 11% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996, but less than 10% for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Cost of materials as a percentage of revenues decreased to 79.9% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from 80.7% in 1996. This decrease is a result of INTERMAT having a lower cost of materials, as a percentage of revenues, than ISA. This 7 percentage may vary depending upon the sales mix of the two subsidiaries. Operating wages and benefits expense as a percentage of revenues increased to 9.7% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from 8.5% in 1996. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 2.6% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from 1.7% in 1996. These increases resulted primarily from operating expenses for new In-Plant Store facilities, as a percentage of revenues, being higher than those of more mature facilities. During the start-up phase of new facilities, operating expenses generally increase at a higher rate than revenues are recognized. As new In-Plant Store facilities are added, the Company will continue to incur these high start-up costs, and operating expenses as a percentage of revenues may continue to increase, depending upon the rate at which the Company adds new In-Plant Store facilities. The increase also resulted from the inclusion of INTERMAT's results of operations which reflect a higher percentage of these expenses than In-Plant Store operations. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 11.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from 13.8% in 1996. As the In-Plant Store program continues to expand, this expense will continue to increase; however, as a percentage of revenue, it may decrease as the ratio of new In-Plant Store facilities to more mature facilities decreases. The Company recorded a non-recurring charge of $8,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1997 for acquired in-process research and development in connection with the acquisition of INTERMAT. Interest income, net increased by $380 to $343 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from interest expense, net of $37 in 1996. The increase resulted primarily from the sale of 7,630,000 shares of Common Stock in May 23, 1996 and the interest on the net proceeds. Loss from discontinued operations was $1,148 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The Company has decided to sell SSI and ATSG in order to focus exclusively on the growth of its In-Plant Store business. Results of operations of SSI and ATSG for the three months ended March 31, 1997 have been included in the provision for loss on sale of discontinued operations established at December 31, 1996. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $8,818, compared to a net loss of $1,966 in 1996, as a result of the items previously discussed. 8 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Effective as of December 31, 1995, the Company entered into a revolving bank credit agreement providing maximum borrowings of $20,000. The credit agreement was amended on September 9,1996 to reduce the permitted maximum outstanding borrowings to $5,000. Borrowings bear interest at the prime rate (8.50% as of March 31, 1997) and/or a Eurodollar rate, with a 3/8% commitment fee on the unused portion of the credit available. The credit facility expires on January 31, 2000. The amount which the Company may borrow under the credit facility is based upon eligible accounts receivable. The credit facility contains customary financial and other covenants and is collateralized by substantially all of the assets as well as the pledge of the capital stock of the Company's subsidiaries. As of December 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997 there were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility. On January 28, 1997, the Company completed the acquisition of INTERMAT for a purchase price consisting of $10,800 in cash, a $1,400 subordinated note and 625,000 newly issued shares of Common Stock. This acquisition resulted in a decline in cash and cash equivalents, and an increase in indebtedness. On May 23, 1996, the Company sold 7,630,000 shares of its common stock in an underwritten public ("Offering"). The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $55,332. A portion of the net proceeds were used to repay the Company's bank indebtedness. The balance of the remaining net proceeds is available for working capital, including the opening of In-Plant Store facilities, for general corporate purposes and for possible acquisitions. The net cash used in continuing operations was $4,252 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to net cash provided by continuing operations of $1,892 in 1996. The change resulted primarily from an increase in net loss, accounts receivable and inventories, which were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The net loss was offset by the non-cash charge for acquired in-process research and development. Accounts receivable increased primarily as a result of a few large customers not paying their balances until early April 1997 and an increase in the number of In-Plant Store facilities. Inventories increased primarily from the increase in the number of In-Plant Store facilities. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased primarily from higher inventory levels. 9 The results of the discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 have been included in the provision for loss on sale of discontinued operations established at December 31, 1996. The change in net assets of discontinued operations was a decrease of $336 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to a decrease of $1,716 in 1996. The reduction in this amount was a result of a smaller decrease in working capital for the three months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to 1996. The net cash used in investing activities was $11,327 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to $444 in 1996. The increased resulted primarily from the cash portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of INTERMAT. The net cash used in financing activities was $529 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to $1,683 in 1996. This decrease resulted primarily from the repayment of the Company's indebtedness with the net proceeds from the Offering. The Company believes that cash on hand, cash generated from future operations, and cash from the Company's bank credit facility will generate sufficient funds to permit the Company to support the anticipated expansion of the In-Plant Store program. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPALS In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 128, "Earning per Share" which is effective for financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted per share amounts for income from continuing operations and net income. The Company does not expect the adoption of the pronouncement to materially impact earnings per share. 10 PART II Item 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K (a).
