NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. was incorporated in British Columbia on July 8, 1987 as a holding company for Jewett-Cameron Lumber Corporation (“JCLC”), incorporated September 1953. Jewett-Cameron Trading Company, Ltd. acquired all the shares of JCLC through a stock-for-stock exchange on July 13, 1987, and at that time JCLC became a wholly owned subsidiary. Effective September 1, 2013, the Company reorganized certain of its subsidiaries. JCLC’s name was changed to JC USA Inc. (“JC USA”), and a new subsidiary, Jewett-Cameron Company (“JCC”), was incorporated.


JC USA has the following wholly owned subsidiaries: MSI-PRO Co. (“MSI”), incorporated April 1996, Jewett-Cameron Seed Company, (“JCSC”), incorporated October 2000, Greenwood Products, Inc. (“Greenwood”), incorporated February 2002, and Jewett-Cameron Company, incorporated September 2013. Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have no significant assets in Canada.


The Company, through its subsidiaries, operates out of facilities located in North Plains, Oregon. JCC’s business consists of the manufacturing and distribution of specialty metal products and wholesale distribution of wood products to home centers and other retailers located primarily in the United States. Greenwood is a processor and distributor of industrial wood and other specialty building products principally to customers in the marine and transportation industries in the United States. MSI is an importer and distributor of pneumatic air tools and industrial clamps in the United States. JCSC is a processor and distributor of agricultural seeds in the United States. JC USA provides professional and administrative services, including accounting and credit services, to its subsidiary companies.


These unaudited financial statements are those of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements of Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd., contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state its financial position as of May 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended May 31, 2017 and 2016 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended May 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2017.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d…)


Estimates


The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates incorporated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the estimated useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets, the estimated allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and inventory obsolescence, possible product liability and possible product returns, and litigation contingencies and claims. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and cash equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.  At May 31, 2017, cash was $4,872,068 compared to $4,519,922 at August 31, 2016.  At May 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016, there were no cash equivalents.


Accounts receivable


Trade and other accounts receivable are reported at face value less any provisions for uncollectible accounts considered necessary. Accounts receivable primarily includes trade receivables from customers. The Company estimates doubtful accounts on an item-by-item basis and includes over aged accounts as part of allowance for doubtful accounts, which are generally ones that are ninety days or greater overdue.  


The Company extends credit to domestic customers and offers discounts for early payment.  When extension of credit is not advisable, the Company relies on either prepayment or a letter of credit.


Inventory


Inventory, which consists primarily of finished goods, is recorded at the lower of cost, based on the average cost method, and market.  Market is defined as net realizable value. An allowance for potential non-saleable inventory due to excess stock or obsolescence is based upon a review of inventory components.


Property, plant and equipment


Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation.  The Company provides for depreciation over the estimated life of each asset on a straight-line basis over the following periods:


 

Office equipment

3-7 years

 

Warehouse equipment

2-10 years

 

Buildings

5-30 years


Intangibles


The Company’s intangible assets have a finite life and are recorded at cost.  The most significant intangible assets are two patents related to gate support systems.  Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the remaining lives of 9 months and 21 months, respectively, and are reviewed annually for impairment.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d…)


Asset retirement obligations


The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, and normal use of the long-lived assets.  The Company also records a corresponding asset which is amortized over the life of the asset.  Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time (accretion expense) and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation (asset retirement cost).  The Company does not have any significant asset retirement obligations.


Impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of


Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.


Currency and foreign exchange


These financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars as the Company's operations are based only in the United States


The Company does not have non-monetary or monetary assets and liabilities that are in a currency other than the U.S. dollar.  Any statement of operations transactions in a foreign currency are translated at rates that approximate those in effect at the time of translation.  Gains and losses from translation of foreign currency transactions into U.S. dollars are included in current results of operations.


Earnings per share


Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted earnings per common share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive common shares.

Comprehensive income


The Company has no items of other comprehensive income in any year presented.  Therefore, net income presented in the consolidated statements of operations equals comprehensive income.


Stock-based compensation


All stock-based compensation is recognized as an expense in the financial statements and such costs are measured at the fair value of the award.


No options were granted during the nine month period ended May 31, 2017, and there were no options outstanding on May 31, 2017.


Financial instruments


The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such values:


Cash - the carrying amount approximates fair value because the amounts consist of cash held at a bank and cash held in short term investment accounts.


Accounts receivable - the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term nature and historical collectability.


Accounts payable and accrued liabilities - the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the obligations.

The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of May 31, 2017, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset:

The fair values of cash are determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.


Income taxes


A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards.  Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.


Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.


Shipping and handling costs


The Company incurs certain expenses related to preparing, packaging and shipping its products to its customers, mainly third-party transportation fees. All costs related to these activities are included as a component of cost of goods sold in the consolidated statement of operations. All costs billed to the customer are included as sales in the consolidated statement of operations.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (cont’d…)


In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable and an estimate of future discounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss will be recognized. Management's estimates of revenues, operating expenses, and operating capital are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which may affect the recoverability of the Company's investments in its assets. Although management has made its best estimate of these factors based on current conditions, it is possible that changes could occur which could adversely affect management's estimate of the net cash flow expected to be generated from its operations.

CANCELLATION OF CAPITAL STOCK


Treasury stock may be kept based on an acceptable inventory method such as the average cost basis.  Upon disposition or cancellation, the treasury stock account is credited for an amount equal to the number of shares cancelled, multiplied by the cost per share and the difference is treated as additional paid-in-capital in excess of stated value.


During the 3rd quarter of fiscal 2017 ended May 31, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan to repurchase up to 225,000 common shares. The plan will commence on June 1, 2017 and will terminate automatically on August 30, 2017, but may be limited or terminated at any time without notice.


During the 4th quarter of fiscal 2016 ended August 31, 2016, the Company repurchased and cancelled a total of 112,152 common shares under a 10b5-1 share repurchase plan. The total cost was $1,378,701 at an average price of $12.29. The premium paid to acquire these shares over their per share book value in the amount of $1,325,994 was recorded as a decrease to retained earnings. In addition to the shares repurchased under the 10b5-1 repurchase plan, Donald Boone, President and CEO of the Company, voluntarily returned 15,000 common shares to treasury for cancellation. The Company paid no consideration for the shares. Capital stock was reduced by the book value of the shares in the amount of $7,124, with a corresponding increase to retained earnings of $7,124.


During the 3rd quarter of fiscal 2016 ended May 31, 2016, the Company repurchased and cancelled a total of 63,386 common shares under a 10b5-1 share repurchase plan. The total cost was $745,878 at an average price of $11.77 per share. The premium paid to acquire these shares over their per share book value in the amount of $715,756 was recorded as a decrease to retained earnings.


10.

STOCK OPTIONS


The Company has a stock option program under which stock options to purchase securities from the Company can be granted to directors and employees of the Company on terms and conditions acceptable to the regulatory authorities of Canada, notably the Ontario Securities Commission and the British Columbia Securities Commission.


Under the stock option program, stock options for up to 10% of the number of issued and outstanding common shares may be granted from time to time, provided that stock options in favor of any one individual may not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares.  No stock option granted under the stock option program is transferable by the optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each stock option is exercisable during the lifetime of the optionee only by such optionee.  Generally, no option can be for a term of more than 10 years from the date of the grant.


The exercise price of all stock options, granted under the stock option program, must be at least equal to the fair market value (subject to regulated discounts) of such common shares on the date of grant.  Options vest at the discretion of the Board of Directors.


The Company had no stock options outstanding as of May 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016.


11.

PENSION AND PROFIT-SHARING PLANS


The Company has a deferred compensation 401(k) plan for all employees with at least 12 months of service pending a monthly enrolment time.  The plan allows for a non-elective discretionary contribution based on the first $50,000 of eligible compensation, which was decreased from the prior $60,000 of eligible compensation during the second quarter of fiscal 2017. During the second quarter of fiscal 2016 ended February 29, 2016, the Company made an additional 10% contribution for all eligible employees as a one-time compensation bonus. For the nine month periods ended May 31, 2017 and 2016, the 401(k) compensation expense was $256,385 and $360,275, respectively.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS


a)

A subsidiary was a plaintiff in a lawsuit filed in Portland, Oregon, entitled, Greenwood Products, Inc. et al v. Greenwood Forest Products, Inc. et al., Case No. 05-02553 (Multnomah County Circuit Court).


During fiscal 2002 the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire inventory over a 15 month period with an initial estimated value of $7,000,000 from Greenwood Forest Products, Inc.  During the year ended August 31, 2003, the Company completed the final phase of the inventory acquisition.  As partial consideration for the purchase of the inventory the Company issued two promissory notes, based on its understanding of the value of the inventory purchased.  The Company believes it overpaid the obligation by approximately $820,000. The holder counterclaimed for approximately $2,400,000.


Litigation was completed on March 5, 2007, with the court’s general judgment and money award.  The net effect was money judgment in favor of Greenwood Forest Products, Inc. for $242,604.  The Company accrued reserves to cover the money judgment related to this dispute.  Both parties filed appeals for review of the court’s opinion.


A series of rulings and appeals between the years ended August 31, 2011 to August 31, 2015, resulted in the Company recognizing aggregate litigation income of $272,695, and aggregate interest expense of $363,366 to August 31, 2015, totaling a net loss of $90,671.


During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Company and Greenwood Forest Products, Inc., settled all litigation between the two companies. The Company made a cash payment of $200,000 to Greenwood Forest Products, Inc., as full settlement and termination of the litigation (the “Settlement Payment”). During the nine months ended May 31, 2016 and year ended August 31, 2016, litigation expense of $115,990 was recorded. As a result, to the date of settlement during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Company recognized aggregate litigation income, and aggregate interest expense of $156,705, and $363,366 respectively, resulting in an aggregate loss of $206,661.


b)

At May 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016, the Company had an un-utilized line-of-credit of $3,000,000 (note 7).  The line-of-credit has certain financial covenants. The Company is in compliance with these covenants.


13.

SEGMENT INFORMATION


The Company has four principal reportable segments. These reportable segments were determined based on the nature of the products offered.  Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.  


The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business segment income before taxes.  The following tables show the operations of the Company's reportable segments.

CONCENTRATIONS


Credit risk


Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.  The Company places its cash with a high quality financial institution.  The Company has concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable as large amounts of its accounts receivable are concentrated geographically in the United States amongst a small number of customers. At May 31, 2017, two customers accounted for accounts receivable greater than 10% of total accounts receivable at 53%. At May 31, 2016, one customer accounted for accounts receivable greater than 10% of total accounts receivable at 43%. The Company controls credit risk through credit approvals, credit limits, credit insurance and monitoring procedures.  The Company performs credit evaluations of its commercial customers but generally does not require collateral to support accounts receivable.


Volume of business


The Company has concentrations in the volume of purchases it conducts with its suppliers. For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, there were two suppliers that each accounted for 10% of total purchases, and the aggregate purchases amounted to $13,945,620. For the nine months ended May 31, 2016, there were three suppliers that each accounted for 10% of total purchases, and the aggregate purchases amounted to $16,016,162.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Jewett-Cameron Trading Company Ltd., contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state its financial position as of May 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended May 31, 2017 and May 31, 2016 in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended May 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending August 31, 2017.


The Company’s operations are classified into four reportable segments, which were determined based on the nature of the products offered along with the markets being served.  The segments are as follows:

·

Industrial wood products

·

Lawn, garden, pet and other

·

Seed processing and sales

·

Industrial tools


The industrial wood products segment reflects the business conducted by Greenwood Products, Inc. (Greenwood),  Greenwood is a processor and distributor of industrial wood products.  A major product category is treated plywood that is sold primarily to the transportation industry.


The lawn, garden, pet and other segment reflects the business of Jewett-Cameron Company (JCC), which is a manufacturer and distributor of specialty metal products and a wholesaler of wood products formerly conducted by Jewett-Cameron Lumber Company (JCLC). Wood products include fencing and landscape timbers, while metal products include dog kennels, proprietary gate support systems, perimeter fencing, and greenhouses.  JCC uses contract manufacturers to make the specialty metal products.  Some of the products that JCC distributes flow through the Company’s distribution center located in North Plains, Oregon, and some are shipped direct to the customer from the manufacturer.  Primary customers are home centers and other retailers.  


The seed processing and sales segment reflects the business of Jewett-Cameron Seed Company (JCSC).  JCSC processes and distributes agricultural seed.  Most of this segment’s sales come from selling seed to distributors with a lesser amount of sales derived from cleaning seed.


The industrial tools segment reflects the business of MSI-PRO (MSI).  MSI imports and distributes products including pneumatic air tools, industrial clamps, and saw blades; that are primarily sold to wholesalers that in turn sell to contractors and other end users.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended May 31, 2017, sales increased by $2,259,521, or 16%, to $16,718,234 from sales of $14,458,713 for the three months ended May 31, 2016.


Sales at Greenwood were $1,160,302 for the three months ended May 31, 2017 compared to sales of $951,820 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, which was an increase of $208,482, or 22%. Although sales in the segment continue to lag historic levels, the increase in sales during the quarter was a result of certain primary customers adding to orders as indicated during the first half of the fiscal year. For the three months ended May 31, 2017, Greenwood had operating income of $5,279 compared to an operating loss of ($7,698) for the three months ended May 31, 2016.


Sales at JCC were $14,107,579 for the three months ended May 31, 2017 compared to sales of $12,936,795 for the three months ended May 31. This represents an increase of $1,170,784, or 9%. During the current quarter, management has continued its work to broaden its sales channels, including through eCommerce and internationally. Operating income for the current quarter was $1,600,385 compared to operating income of $1,368,715 for the quarter ended May 31, 2016.


Sales at JCSC were $1,195,357 for the three months ended May 31, 2017 compared to sales of $238,904 for the three months ended May 31, 2016. This is an increase of $956,453, or 400%. The colder and wetter than normal winter and late arrival of Spring weather in much of the United States pushed some sales historically received in the second quarter into this year’s third quarter, while supplies in the year-ago quarter were restrained by drought conditions which reduced harvested yields. For the quarter, JCSC had an operating profit of $42,477 compared to an operating loss of ($44,415) in the quarter ended May 31, 2016.

MSI had an operating profit of $20,670 compared to an operating loss of ($2,576) for the three month period ended May 31, 2016.


Gross margin for the three months ended May 31, 2017 was 22.8% compared to 22.0% for the three months ended May 31, 2016. Margins improved during the quarter due to higher eCommerce sales, which was offset slightly by higher costs for certain raw materials, including cedar which has lower supply available.


Operating expenses increased by $116,675 to $1,788,463 from $1,671,788 for the three months ended May 31, 2016. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses declined to $466,014 from $542,581.

The current quarter’s earnings per share was positively affected a lower weighted average number of common shares outstanding.


Nine Months Ended May 31, 2017 and May 31, 2016


For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, sales declined by $949,031, or 3%, to $36,639,323 from sales of $37,588,354 for the nine month period ended May 31, 2016.


Sales at Greenwood were $2,857,334 for the nine months ended May 31, 2017 compared to sales of $3,810,183 for the nine months ended May 31, 2016. This represents a decrease of $952,849, or 25%. Sales in the first half of fiscal 2017 were slow but began to rebound during the third quarter as certain primary customers increased their orders. For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, Greenwood had an operating loss of ($58,597) compared to operating income of $36,714 for the nine months ended May 31, 2016.


Sales at JCC were $29,692,782 for the nine months ended May 31, 2017 compared to sales of $30,313,357 for the nine months ended May 31, 2016, which was a decrease of $620,575, or 2%. Management has continued its endeavors to broaden JCC’s sales channels, including increasing eCommerce sales and establishing a dedicated sales team to obtain new customers in international markets. Sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2016 were higher than historical norms due to the Company receiving and shipping seasonal orders from certain customers earlier than in prior years. Operating income at JCC was $2,494,172 for the nine months ended May 31, 2017 compared to operating income of $2,417,382 for the nine months ended May 31, 2016, which was a increase of $76,790, or 3%. Overall, the operating results of JCC are seasonal with the first two quarters of the fiscal year being much slower than the final two quarters of the fiscal year.


Sales at JCSC for the nine months ended May 31, 2017 were $2,834,311, which was an increase of $246,938, or 10%, from sales of $2,587,373 for the nine months ended May 31, 2016. The rebound in residential housing demand in the United States has resulted in higher demand and prices for grass seed. Management has also worked to improve its seed cleaning and seed sales operations, which have contributed to the improved results. For the nine month period ended May 31, 2017, JCSC had operating income of $126,507 compared to an operating loss of ($95,840) for the nine months ended May 31, 2016.


Sales at MSI were $1,254,897 for the nine months ended May 31, 2017 compared to sales of $877,441 for the nine months ended May 31, 2016, which was an increase of $377,456, or 43%. During fiscal 2017, management has worked to increase eCommerce sales and has also begun to build stronger relationships with distributors. Sales in the prior year’s period were negatively affected by the Company’s reduction of prices on certain products due to increased competitiveness in certain segments. For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, MSI had an operating profit of $86,581 compared to an operating loss of ($83,839) for the nine months ended May 31, 2016.


Gross margin for the nine month period ended May 31, 2017 was 22.7% compared to 20.2% for the nine months ended May 31, 2016. The higher margin in the current period is due to greater eCommerce sales, although certain raw material prices have been increasing.

The Company has been expanding its infrastructure to support its growth. In May 2016, the Company received its final permits for the construction of a warehouse expansion at its headquarters property in North Plains. The completed building measures 150 feet by 80 feet and has a height of 37 feet. During the second quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company received its conditional occupation permits and began using the new expansion for several new product lines. The Company has also begun adding additional personnel to support its new product lines and sales initiatives.


The Company has historically utilized a portion of its cash position by repurchasing common shares under formal repurchase plans in order to increase shareholder value.  The Company has repurchased common shares through share repurchase plans approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On May 23, 2017, the Company announced the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan to purchase for cancellation up to 225,000 common shares through facilities of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”).  This amount represents approximately 9.9% of the 2,286,294 common shares outstanding. Transactions may involve Jewett-Cameron insiders or their affiliates executed in compliance with Jewett-Cameron's Insider Trading Policy. The share repurchase plan will be effected in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which contains restrictions on the number of shares that may be purchased on a single day, subject to certain exceptions for block purchases, based on the average daily trading volumes ("ADTV") of Jewett-Cameron's shares on NASDAQ. Purchases shall be limited to one “Block” purchase per week in lieu of the 25% of ADTV limitation for compliance with Rule 10b-18(b)(4). A “block” as defined under Rule 10b-18(a)(5) means a quantity of stock that, among other things, is at least 5,000 shares and has a purchase price of at least US$50,000. The plan commenced on June 1, 2017 and will terminate automatically on August 30, 2017, but may be limited or terminated at any time without notice. Under the Plan, the Company has to date repurchased a total of 40,660 common shares at a cost of $511,959 which is an average price of $12.59 per share.


On March 7, 2016, the Company announced the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan to purchase for cancellation up to 250,000 common shares through the facilities of NASDAQ. The terms and conditions of the March 2016 repurchase plan were similar to the May 2017 Plan disclosed above. The plan commenced on March 10, 2016 and terminated on August 25, 2016. Under the Plan, the Company repurchased a total of 175,538 common shares at a cost of $2,124,579 which is an average price of $12.10.


In addition to the Rule 10b-18 share repurchases, Donald M. Boone, CEO, President and Director, voluntarily returned 15,000 common shares to the Company’s treasury for cancellation in August 2015. In June 2016, Mr. Boone voluntarily returned an additional 15,000 to treasury for cancellation. The Company paid no consideration for these shares.


Business Risks


This quarterly report includes “forward–looking statements” as that term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or “hopeful,” or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. For example, this section contains numerous forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements in this report are made based on management’s current expectations and estimates, which involve risks and uncertainties, including those described in the following paragraphs.


Risks Related to Our Common Stock


We may decide to acquire assets or enter into business combinations, which could be paid for, either wholly or partially with our common stock and if we decide to do this our current shareholders would experience dilution in their percentage of ownership.


Our Articles of Incorporation give our Board of Directors the right to enter into any contract without the approval of our shareholders.  Therefore, our management could decide to make an investment (buy shares, loan money, etc.) without shareholder approval.  If we acquire an asset or enter into a business combination, this could include exchanging a large amount of our common stock, which could dilute the ownership interest of present stockholders.


Future stock distributions could be structured in such a way as to be 1) diluting to our current shareholders or 2) could cause a change in control to new investors.


If we raise additional funds by selling more of our stock, the new stock may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of our existing stock.  If common stock is issued in return for additional funds, the price per share could be lower than that paid by our current stockholders.  The result of this would be a lessening of each present stockholder’s relative percentage interest in our company.


Our shareholders could experience significant dilution if we issue our authorized 10,000,000 preferred shares.


The Company’s common shares currently trade within the NASDAQ Capital Market in the United States. The average daily trading volume of our common stock on NASDAQ was 2,208 shares for the nine months ended May 31, 2017. With this limited trading volume, investors could find it difficult to purchase or sell our common stock.


 

- 24 -

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Risks Related to Our Business


We could experience a decrease in the demand for our products resulting in lower sales volumes.


In the past, we have at times experienced decreasing products sales with certain customers. The reasons for this can be generally attributed to: increased competition; general economic conditions; demand for products; and consumer interest rates.  If economic conditions deteriorate or if consumer preferences change, we could experience a significant decrease in profitability.


If our top customers were lost, we could experience lower sales volumes.


For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, our top ten customers represented 79% of our total sales. We would experience a significant decrease in sales and profitability and would have to cut back our operations, if these customers were lost and could not be replaced.  Our top ten customers are in the U.S., Canada and Mexico and are primarily in the retail home improvement industry.  


We could experience delays in the delivery of our products to our customers causing us to lose business.


We purchase our products from other vendors and a delay in shipment from these vendors to us could cause significant delays in our delivery to our customers.  This could result in a decrease in sales orders to us and we would experience a loss in profitability.


We could lose our credit agreement and could result in our not being able to pay our creditors.


We have a line of credit with U.S. Bank in the amount of $3,000,000, of which $3,000,000 is available.  We are currently in compliance with the requirements of our existing line of credit.  If we lost this credit it could become impossible to pay some of our creditors on a timely basis.


If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to detect fraud or report our financial results accurately, which could harm our business and we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny.


We have completed a management assessment of internal controls as prescribed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which we were required to do in connection with our year ended August 31, 2016.  Based on this process we did not identify any material weaknesses.  Although we believe our internal controls are operating effectively, we cannot guarantee that in the future we will not identify any material weaknesses in connection with this ongoing process.



Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


Interest Rate Risk


The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments as of May 31, 2017. However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk.


The Company’s interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates.  In this regard, changes in U.S. interest rates affect the interest earned on the Company’s cash.


The Company has a line of credit whose interest rate may fluctuate over time based on economic changes in the environment.  The Company is subject to interest rate risk and could be subject to increased interest payments if market interest rates fluctuate.  The Company does not expect any change in the interest rates to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results from operations.


Foreign Currency Risk


The Company operates primarily in the United States.  However, a relatively small amount of business is currently conducted in currencies other than U.S. dollars, and the Company may experience an increase in foreign exchange risk as they expand their international sales.  Also, to the extent that the Company uses contract manufacturers in China, currency exchange rates can influence the Company’s purchasing costs.

Controls and Procedures

Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.

Legal Proceedings


a)

A subsidiary was a plaintiff in a lawsuit filed in Portland, Oregon, entitled, Greenwood Products, Inc. et al v. Greenwood Forest Products, Inc. et al., Case No. 05-02553 (Multnomah County Circuit Court).  


During fiscal 2002 the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire inventory over a 15 month period with an initial estimated value of $7,000,000 from Greenwood Forest Products, Inc.  During the year ended August 31, 2003, the Company completed the final phase of the inventory acquisition.  As partial consideration for the purchase of the inventory the Company issued two promissory notes, based on its understanding of the value of the inventory purchased.  The Company believes it overpaid the obligation by approximately $820,000.  The holder counterclaimed for approximately $2,400,000.


Litigation was completed on March 5, 2007, with the court’s general judgment and money award.  The net effect was money judgment in favor of Greenwood Forest Products, Inc. for $242,604.  The Company accrued reserves to cover the money judgment related to this dispute.  Both parties filed appeals for review of the court’s opinion.


A series of rulings and appeals between the years ended August 31, 2011 to August 31, 2015, resulted in the Company recognizing aggregate litigation income of $272,695, and aggregate interest expense of $363,366 to August 31, 2015, totaling a net loss of $90,671.


During the year ended August 31, 2016, the Company and Greenwood Forest Products, Inc., settled all litigation between the two companies. The Company made a cash payment of $200,000 to Greenwood Forest Products, Inc., as full settlement and termination of the litigation (the “Settlement Payment”). During the year ended August 31, 2016, litigation expense of $115,990 was recorded. As a result, to the date of settlement during the year ended August 31, 2016, the Company has recognized aggregate litigation income, and aggregate interest expense of $156,705, and $363,366 respectively, resulting in an aggregate loss of $206,661.


The Company does not know of any other material, active or pending legal proceedings against them; nor is the Company involved as a plaintiff in any other material proceeding or pending litigation.  The Company knows of no other active or pending proceedings against anyone that might materially adversely affect an interest of the Company.
