Cagle's, Inc. & Subsidiary Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements December 29, 2001 1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Cagle's, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of September 29, 2001 and March 31, 2001 and the results of their operations for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended December 29,2001 and December 30,2000. 2. The results of operations for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended December 29,2001 and December 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 3. Inventories consisted of the following: (In Thousands) December 29,2001 March 31, 2001 Finished Product $16,516 $14,289 Field Inventory and Breeders 15,562 15,356 Feed, Eggs, and Medication 5,130 3,780 Supplies 1,526 1,605 ---------------- -------------- $38,734 $35,070 4. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may vary from those estimates. 5. Investments in and Receivables from Unconsolidated Affiliates. The Company accounts for its investments in 5 unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method. The Company's share of earnings from these affiliates totaled $3,037,000 and $3,067,000 respectively for the 13 weeks ended December 29, 2001 and December 30,2000 and $8,679,000 and $8,870,000 respectively for the 39 week periods ended the same dates. 6. Accounting for derivative instruments SFAS no. 133. The Company adopted SFAS No. 133 during the first quarter of this fiscal year and recorded the change in fair market value of interest rate swaps used to hedge $25,000,000 in variable rate debt in accordance with SFAS 133. The resulting charge(Loss) to equity was ($916,640). The charge to equity for the quarter ended September 29,2001 was $531,902 and forth quarter ended December 29, 2001, a gain of $429,996. There was an effect on earnings of $253,465 (expensed) for the quarter ended December 29, 2001 as a result of SFAS no. 133 compliance. 7. Certain prior year amounts have been re-classified for consistency with current period presentation. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation December 29, 2001 Financial Condition Weak demand for boneless skinless breast meat and tenders and the resulting low market prices, seasonal inventory increases combined with continuing inefficiencies associate with the new processing facility in Perry, Ga. resulted in losses for the quarter. The continued losses continued to strain the Company's liquidity as additional utilization of a revolving credit facility was required to fund operational requirements; increased inventory and accounts receivable levels. The sale of an idle facility is reflected in the results of the quarter and resulted in a gain of $968,991 and cash of $2.5 million. In addition, the Company received a subordinated note for $1 million for the balance of the sale price. The additional gain reflected by the $1 million note is deferred until the note is paid. During the quarter ended December 29, 2001 the Company sold its Macon processing facility which had ceased production in June of 2001. The Company received a first mortgage on the plant for the selling price of $6.8 million and the sale will be reported on the installment basis as the mortgage is paid. There was no impact on the financial statements as of December 29, 2001. Results of Operations Revenues for the 13 week and 39 week periods ended December 29, 2001 increased by 44.02% and 28.71% as compared to corresponding periods of a year ago. This increase is attributed to the additional production, approximately 29% more eviscerated pounds for the 39 week period ended December 29, 2001 compared to a year ago and 36.16% more pounds in the 13 week period ended December 29, 2001 as compared to the 13 weeks ended December 30, 2000. Market prices continued to challenge as most items remained at depressed levels, wings and leg quarters being the exceptions. Boneless, skinless breast meat and tenders, the major volume items remained at historically low levels with strike prices substantially lower, than the nationally quoted markets, both for the 13 week period and the 39 week period as compared to the same period of a year ago. Cost was adversely affected by a slight increase in feed cost which was 6.87% higher on average for the 13 week period compared to year ago levels and 3.5% higher for the 39 week period than from the corresponding period of a year ago. Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses There was no significant change in these expenses as a class, however legal expenses continue to be a burden associated with ongoing litigation. Interest Expense Interest expense increased 12.8% for the 13 weeks period as compared to the same period of a year ago and is attributed to higher borrowing levels. The increase for the 39 week period ended December 29, 2001 was 151% however during the 39 week period ended December 30, 2000 $3,124,000 of interest was capitalized and not reflected in interest expense. While rates have dropped significantly the Company's debt include $52,000,000 at fixed rates either as fixed rate debt or of variable rate debt through the use of interest rate swaps. Other Income Other income for the quarter ended December 31, 2001 exceeded that of the same period of a year ago by 12% and includes the gain recorded from the sale of the idle further processing plant. The earnings impact(expense) of $253,000 from FAS133 is also included in this category). For the 39 week period ended December 31, 2001 other income was not materially changed. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes reflects the Company's taxes calculated at statutory rates and in the case of a reported loss reflects the Company's ability to obtain a refund of previously paid taxes. Statutory rates are adjusted for any credits to which the company may be entitled. Part II Other Information Item 9 Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K a. Not applicable b.
