3. DEBT

 

On May 20, 2015 the Company amended its Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Bank of America to provide a senior financing facility consisting of term debt and a revolving line of credit. Under the Agreement, the Company became obligated on $12,000,000 of debt in the form of a term note to refinance the previous senior term debt and to fund repayment of a portion of its outstanding subordinated debt. Additionally, the Agreement includes a $5,000,000 revolving line of credit that can be used for the purchase of fixed assets, to fund acquisitions, to collateralize letters of credit, and for operating capital.

 

The Agreement amortizes the term debt over a five year period with 59 equal monthly installments of $133,333 and a final payment of $4,133,333 due in May 2020. The revolving line of credit matures in May 2018. There are various restrictive covenants under the Agreement, and the Company is prohibited from entering into other debt agreements without the bank’s consent. The Agreement also prohibits the Company from paying dividends without the prior consent of the bank.

 

At April 30, 2017, there was no balance outstanding on the line of credit and a letter of credit issued for $1,327,000 to collateralize the Company’s liability insurance program as of that date. Consequently, as of April 30, 2017, there was $3,673,000 available to borrow from the revolving line of credit. There was $8,933,000 outstanding on the term note as of April 30, 2017.

 

Effective September 12, 2016, the Company further amended its Credit Agreement with Bank of America (the “Second Amendment”). Under the Second Amendment, interest is paid at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus a margin based on the achievement of a specified leverage ratio. As of April 30, 2017, the margin was 2.50% for the term note and 2.25% for the revolving line of credit. The Company fixed the interest rate on a portion of its term debt by entering into an interest rate swap. As of April 30, 2017, the Company had $4,466,000 of the term debt subject to variable interest rates. The one-month LIBOR was 0.99% on April 30, 2017 resulting in total variable interest rates of 3.49% and 3.24%, for the term note and the revolving line of credit, respectively, as of April 30, 2017.

 

The Second Amendment requires the Company to be in compliance with certain financial covenants as follows: (i) a maximum annual limit for capital expenditures of $4,000,000 each fiscal year, (ii) consolidated adjusted operating cash flows to consolidated total debt service ratio, as defined, to be no less than 1.5 to 1 for any reference period ending on or after October 31, 2016 and (iii) senior funded debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA, as defined, to be no greater than 2.5 to 1 as of the end of any fiscal quarter ending on or after October 31, 2016. As of April 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

 

8
 

In addition to the senior debt, as of April 30, 2017, the Company has subordinated debt owed to Henry, Peter and John Baker in the aggregate principal amount of $9,000,000 that is due November 20, 2020. $4,500,000 of the outstanding principal amount at April 30, 2017 has been reclassified to current liabilities as we anticipate to pay down the subordinated debt as allowed by the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America. The interest rate on each of these notes is 12% per annum.

 

The notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company but specifically subordinated, with a separate agreement between the debt holders, to the senior financing facility described above.

 

On June 13, 2017, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to its Credit Agreement with Bank of America (the “Third Amendment”) to increase the aggregate principal amount of the credit available under the revolving credit line from $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 and to amend certain other terms of the Credit Agreement. See Note 11, “Subsequent Event.”

 

 

4. INVENTORIES

 

Inventories consisted of the following at:

 

    April 30,   October 31,
  2017   2016
Finished Goods   $ 1,992,894     $ 2,117,241  
Raw Materials     131,787       178,134  
Inventory reserve     -       (233,662 )
Total Inventories   $ 2,124,681     $ 2,061,713  

 

Finished goods inventory consists of products that the Company sells such as, but not limited to, coffee, cups, soft drinks, and snack foods. Raw material inventory consists primarily of bottle caps. The amount of raw and bottled water on hand does not represent a material amount of inventory. The Company estimates that value as of April 30, 2017 and October 31, 2016 to be $44,000 and $47,000, respectively. This value includes the cost of allocated overhead. Bottles are accounted for as fixed assets.

5. ON-BALANCE SHEET DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company has stand-alone derivative financial instruments in the form of interest rate swap agreements, which derive their value from underlying interest rates. These transactions involve both credit and market risk. The notional amount is an amount on which calculations, payments, and the value of the derivative are based. The notional amount does not represent direct credit exposure. Direct credit exposure is limited to the net difference between the calculated amount to be received and paid, if any. Such difference, which represents the fair value of the derivative instrument, is reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as an unrealized gain or loss on derivatives.

 

The Company is also exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to these agreements. The Company controls the credit risk of its financial contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures, and currently has no reason to believe that any counterparties will fail to fulfill their obligations.

 

This interest rate swap agreement is considered a cash flow hedge to hedge against the variability of interest rates on outstanding debt.  The net unrealized gain (loss) relating to interest rate swaps was recorded in current and long term assets or liabilities with an offset to other comprehensive income (loss) for the effective portion of the hedge, net of tax. At April 30, 2017, these cash flow hedges were deemed 100% effective.  The portion of the net unrealized gain in current assets is the amount expected to be reclassified to income within the next twelve months.

 

The following information pertains to the Company's outstanding interest rate swap at April 30, 2017.  The pay rate is fixed and the receive rate is one month LIBOR. The interest rate swap matures May 18, 2018.

6. FAIR VALUES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

 

Fair Value Hierarchy

 

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

 

    Level 1   Level 2   Level 3
Assets (Liabilities):                        
April 30, 2017                        
Unrealized gain on derivatives   $ -     $ 401     $ -  
                         
October 31, 2016                        
Unrealized loss on derivatives   $ -     $ (32,453 )   $ -  

 

In determining the fair value, the Company uses a model that calculates a present value of the payments as they amortize through the life of the loan (float) based on the variable rate and compares them to the calculated value of the payment based on the fixed rate (fixed) defined in the swap. In calculating the present value, in addition to the term, the model relies on other data – the “rate” and the “discount factor.”

 

§ In the “float” model, the rate reflects where the market expects LIBOR to be for the respective period and is based on the Eurodollar futures market.
§ The discount factor is a function of the volatility of LIBOR.

 

Payments are calculated by applying the rate to the notional amount and adjusting for the term. Then the present value is calculated by using the discount factor.

 

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

7. INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE AND WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES

 

The Company considers outstanding in-the-money stock options as potential common stock in its calculation of diluted earnings per share, unless the effect would be anti-dilutive, and uses the treasury stock method to calculate the applicable number of shares.

 

The following calculation provides the reconciliation of the denominators used in the calculation of basic and fully diluted earnings per share:

 

    Three Months Ended
April 30,
  Six Months Ended
April 30,
    2017   2016   2017   2016
Net Income (Loss)   $ (27,079 )   $ 239,251     $ (101,693 )   $ 209,723  
Denominator:                                
Basic Weighted Average Shares Outstanding     21,358,411       21,358,411       21,358,411       21,358,411  
Dilutive effect of Stock Options     -       -       -       -  
Diluted Weighted Average Shares Outstanding     21,358,411       21,358,411       21,358,411       21,358,411  
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share   $ (.00 )   $ .01     $ (.00 )   $ .01  
Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share   $ (.00 )   $ .01     $ (.00 )   $ .01  

 

As of April 30, 2017 and 2016 there were no options outstanding.

 

 

8. COMPENSATION PLANS

 

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at the initial date of grant.

 

In April 2014, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. The plan provided for issuances of awards of up to 500,000 restricted or unrestricted shares of the Company’s common stock, or incentive or non-statutory stock options to purchase such common stock. Of the total amount of shares authorized under this plan, no options have been granted and 500,000 shares are available for grant at April 30, 2017.

 

Options issued under the plan generally vest in periods up to five years based on the continuous service of the recipient and have 10 year contractual terms. Share awards generally vest over one year. Option and share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control of the Company (as defined in the plan).

 

There was one option grant, for a total of 10,000 shares that was forfeited in the first six months of 2016. Other than this forfeiture, there was no activity related to stock options and outstanding stock option balances during the three and six month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016.

 

13
 

Compensation is determined using the Black-Scholes model and the simplified method to derive the expected term of the options and historical volatility over the past five years.

 

 

9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which stipulates that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of the ASU to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the transition methods and the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. The ASU requires entities using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory costing method to subsequently value inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The ASU defines net realizable value as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This ASU requires prospective application and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance by the Company is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases", which is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions.  This ASU requires that leased assets be recognized as assets on the balance sheet and the liabilities for the obligations under the lease also be recognized on the balance sheet.  This ASU requires disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.  The required disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements.  This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. Transition will require application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. We are currently in the process of evaluating our adoption timing and the impact of this new pronouncement on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

14
 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), to simplify the process used to test for goodwill. Under the new standard, if “the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.”  For public companies, the ASU is effective for annual and any interim impairment tests for periods beginning after December 15, 2019.  Early adoption is permitted for impairment tests that occur after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), to better define and provide guidance about which changes or conditions of a share based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. For public companies, the ASU is effective for annual and any interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017.  The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

Effective June 13, 2017, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to its Credit Agreement with Bank of America. The Third Amendment increases the aggregate principal amount available under the revolving credit line from $5,000,000 to $6,000,000. In addition the Third Amendment allows the Company to use proceeds of the revolving credit line to make payments on the Subordinated Debt in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000. The Third Amendment also permits prepayment of up to $4,500,000 in the aggregate of Subordinated Debt. On June 13, 2017, the Company made principal payments of $4,500,000 in the aggregate to the subordinated debt holders as allowed by the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America.

Results of Operations

 

Overview and Trends

 

Our strategy of focusing sales efforts on new water customers and providing value-added service has resulted in stronger gross margin percentages for the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to the comparable period of 2016.

 

Sales in the first six months of fiscal 2017 declined $3.7 million or 11% from $32.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2016, however sales of water products increased 1%. The most notable sales decline for the period was in the office products category which accounted for 65% of the net sales decline. Refreshment products and coffee sales also declined during the first six months of fiscal 2017.

 

16
 

The effect of the total revenue decline through the first six months of fiscal 2017 resulted in a decrease in gross profit of $455,000, or 3%.

 

Operating expenses increased $153,000, or 1% during the first six months of fiscal 2017 as compared to 2016. This is the result of adding resources to increase sales volumes of traditional water and coffee products and improving customer service levels. The result of the lower gross profit and increased operating expenses resulted in a reduction in operating income of $609,000 in the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to the comparable period in 2016.

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 30, 2017 (Second Quarter) Compared to the Three Months Ended April 30, 2016

 

Sales

 

Sales for the three months ended April 30, 2017 were $14,475,000 compared to $16,711,000 for the corresponding period in 2016, a decrease of $2,236,000 or 13%. Other than equipment rental, all sales categories declined. The most notable decline was that of office products. The comparative breakdown of sales of the product lines for the respective three-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

 

Product Line (000’s $)   2017   2016   Difference   % Diff.
Water   $ 6,711     $ 6,905     $ (194 )     (3 %)
Coffee     2,624       2,993       (369 )     (12 %)
Refreshment     2,029       2,507       (478 )     (19 %)
Equipment Rental
    1,759       1,744       15       1 %
Office Products     864       2,053       (1,189 )     (58 %)
Other     488       509       (21 )     (4 %)
Total   $ 14,475     $ 16,711     $ (2,236 )     (13 %)

 

Water – Sales of water decreased 3% for the second quarter 2017 as compared to the same period of 2016. The decrease is attributable to a volume decrease of 1% and an average price decrease of 2%.

 

Coffee – The decrease in sales was attributable to a decline in our traditional higher volume bulk and K-cup lines. Bulk products sales continued to be negatively influenced by the single serve lines and K-cup sales declined as a result of ongoing commoditization of coffee products.

 

Refreshment – Complementary coffee products, single serve drinks, small package water, and cups, all declined. The Company no longer services vending machines which accounted for $214,000 of the sales decline in this category.

 

Equipment Rental – The increase in sales was a result of a 3% increase in the number of rental units in the field offset by a decrease of 2% in the average monthly rental price per rental unit.

 

Office Products – The decrease in sales was a result of implemented price increases on items previously sold at cost or near cost as well as a decreased focus on sales in this category.

 

17
 

Other – The decrease is attributable to lower late payment finance charges and a reduction in fees that are charged to offset energy costs for delivery and freight, raw materials and bottling operations.

 

Gross Profit/Cost of Goods Sold – The decrease in sales for the three months ended April 30, 2017 resulted in a decrease of gross profit to $7,669,000 from $8,229,000 for the comparable period in 2016, a decrease of $560,000, or 7%. As a percentage of sales, gross margin was 53% for the three months ended April 30, 2017 compared to 49% for the same period a year ago. For the comparable three month periods, water accounted for 46% and 41% of total sales in 2017 and 2016 respectively. Lower margin office product sales for the same periods accounted for 6% and 12% of total sales in 2017 and 2016 respectively. The improved sales in the higher margin products and the decrease in lower margin office products coupled to improve our gross margin percentages though we realized a decline in gross profit dollars for the second quarter of 2017 as compared to the second quarter 2016.

 

Cost of goods sold includes all costs to bottle water, costs of purchasing and receiving products for resale, including freight, as well as costs associated with product quality, warehousing and handling costs, internal transfers, and the repair and service of rental equipment, but does not include the costs of distributing our product to our customers. We include distribution costs in selling, general, and administrative expense, and the amount is reported below. The reader should be aware that other companies may include distribution costs in their cost of goods sold, in which case, on a comparative basis, such other companies may have a lower gross margin as a result.

 

Operating Expenses and Income from Operations

 

Total operating expenses decreased to $7,368,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2017 from $7,436,000 in the comparable period in 2016, a decrease of $68,000, or 1%.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $7,099,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2017 decreased $51,000, or 1%, from $7,150,000 in the comparable period in 2016. Of total SG&A expenses, route distribution costs decreased $288,000, or 9%, as a result of lower labor, truck leasing and insurance costs; combined selling and marketing costs remained flat for the second fiscal quarter of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016; and administration costs increased $237,000, or 8%, as a result of increased spending in the areas of information technology and customer service improvements and provisions for bad debt partially offset by a decrease in overall labor costs.

 

Advertising expenses were $99,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2017 compared to $116,000 in the second quarter of 2016, a decrease of $17,000, or 15%. The decrease in advertising costs is primarily related to lower utilization of printed advertising materials.

 

Amortization decreased to $170,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2017 from $171,000 in the comparable quarter in 2016, a decrease of $1,000, or less than 1%. Amortization is attributable to intangible assets that were acquired as part of acquisitions. We had no gains or losses from the sale of assets in the second quarter of 2017. We recognized a gain from the sale of assets of $1,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2016. We routinely sell assets used in the normal course of business as they are replaced with newer assets.

 

18
 

The income from operations for the three months ended April 30, 2017 was $301,000 compared to $793,000 in the comparable period in 2016, a decline of $492,000. The decline was the result of lower sales and corresponding gross profit combined with higher administrations costs partially offset by lower route distribution costs.

 

Interest, Taxes, and Other Expenses

 

Net interest expense was $344,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2017 compared to $406,000 in the three months ended April 30, 2016, a decrease of $62,000. The decrease is attributable to lower average interest rates and lower debt balances.

 

The loss before income taxes was $43,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2017 compared to income before income taxes of $387,000 in the corresponding period in 2016, a decrease of $430,000. The tax benefit for the second quarter of 2017 was $16,000 compared to tax expense of $148,000 in the corresponding period of 2016.

 

Net Loss

 

The net loss for the three months ended April 30, 2017 was $27,000 compared to a net income of $239,000 in the corresponding period in 2016. The net loss is attributable to lower sales and corresponding gross profit combined with higher administration costs partially offset by lower route distribution costs.

 

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended April 30, 2017 (First Half) Compared to the Six Months Ended April 30, 2016

 

Sales

 

Sales for the six months ended April 30, 2017 were $29,125,000 compared to $32,842,000 for the corresponding period in 2016, a decrease of $3,717,000, or 11%. The most notable decline was that of office products.

 

The comparative breakdown of sales of the product lines for the respective six-month periods ended April 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

 

Product Line (000’s $)   2017   2016   Difference   % Diff.
Water   $ 13,231     $ 13,053     $ 178       1 %
Coffee     5,326       5,913       (587 )     (10 %)
Refreshment     4,078       4,876       (798 )     (16 %)
Equipment Rental
    3,537       3,535       2       0 %
Office Products     1,991       4,533       (2,542 )     (56 %)
Other     962       932       30       3 %
Total   $ 29,125     $ 32,842     $ (3,717 )     (11 %)

 

 

19
 

Water – Sales of water increased 1% for the first half 2017 as compared to the same period of 2016. The increase is attributable to an increase in volume of 2% partially offset by a decrease in average price of 1%.

 

Coffee – The decrease in sales was attributable to a decline in our traditional higher volume lines, bulk and K-cup, while Cool Beans® pods increased 7%. Bulk products sales continued to be negatively influenced by the single serve lines and K-cup sales declined as a result of ongoing commoditization. The increase in pod sales is a result of conversion of the other lines as well as new sales but the volume of the product, to date, has not approached that of the others.

 

Refreshment – Complementary coffee products, single serve drinks, small package water, and cups, all declined. The Company no longer services vending machines which accounted for $419,000 of the sales decline in this category.

 

Equipment Rental – The small increase in sales was a result of a 2% increase in the number of rental units in the field partially offset by a decrease in the average monthly rental revenue per unit.

 

Office Products – The decrease in sales was a result of implemented price increases on items previously sold at cost or near cost as well as less focus on sales in this category.

 

Other – The increase is the result of an increase in the sales of equipment such as water coolers.

 

Gross Profit/Cost of Goods Sold – The decrease in sales for the six months ended April 30, 2017 resulted in a gross profit decrease of $455,000 to $15,363,000 from $15,818,000 for the comparable period in 2016. As a percentage of sales, gross margin was 53% for the six months ended April 30, 2017 compared to 48% for the same period a year ago. Due to a changing sales mix with a reduction of lower margin sales items, the gross margin percentage increased in 2017 as compared to 2016.

 

Cost of goods sold includes all costs to bottle water, costs of purchasing and receiving products for resale, including freight, as well as costs associated with product quality, warehousing and handling costs, internal transfers, and the repair and service of rental equipment, but does not include the costs of distributing our product to our customers. We include distribution costs in selling, general, and administrative expense, and the amount is reported below. The reader should be aware that other companies may include distribution costs in their cost of goods sold, in which case, on a comparative basis, such other companies may have a lower gross margin as a result.

 

Operating Expenses and Income from Operations

 

Total operating expenses increased to $14,829,000 in the first half of 2017 from $14,676,000 in the comparable period in 2016, an increase of $153,000, or 1%.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $14,271,000 in the first half of 2017 increased $172,000, or 1%, from $14,099,000 in the comparable period in 2016. Of total SG&A expenses, route distribution costs decreased $451,000, or 7%, as a result of lower labor, truck leasing and insurance costs; combined selling and marketing costs increased $199,000, or 11%, as a result of an increase in staffing; and administration costs increased $424,000, or 8%, as a result of increased spending in the areas of information technology and customer service improvements and provisions for bad debt partially offset by a decrease in overall labor costs.

 

20
 

Advertising expenses were $218,000 in the first half of 2017 compared to $251,000 in the first half of 2016, a decrease of $33,000, or 13%. The decrease in advertising costs is primarily related to a reduction in printed sales materials.

 

Amortization increased to $340,000 in the first half of 2017 from $330,000 in the comparable quarter in 2016, an increase of $10,000, or 3%. Amortization is attributable to intangible assets that were acquired as part of acquisitions. We had no gains or losses from the sale of assets in the first half of 2017. We recognized a gain from the sale of assets of $4,000 in the first half of 2016. We routinely sell assets used in the normal course of business as they are replaced with newer assets.

 

The income from operations for the six months ended April 30, 2017 was $533,000 compared to $1,142,000 in the comparable period in 2016, a decrease of $609,000. The decline was the result of lower sales and corresponding gross profit combined with higher selling and administration costs partially offset by lower route distribution costs.

 

Interest, Taxes, and Other Expenses

 

Interest expense was $695,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2017 compared to $804,000 in the six months ended April 30, 2016, a decrease of $109,000. The decrease is attributable to lower average interest rates and lower debt balances.

 

The loss before income taxes was $161,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2017 compared to income before income taxes of $338,000 in the corresponding period in 2016, a decline of $499,000. The tax benefit for the first six months of 2017 was $60,000 compared to a tax expense of $129,000 in 2016.

 

Net Loss

 

The net loss for the six months ended April 30, 2017 was $102,000 compared to a net income of $210,000 in the corresponding period in 2016. The net loss is attributable to lower sales and corresponding gross profit combined with higher administration costs partially offset by lower route distribution costs.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of April 30, 2017, we had working capital of $2,868,000 compared to $7,911,000 as of October 31, 2016, a decrease of $5,043,000. Of the decrease, $4,500,000 is attributable to the reclassification of non-current subordinated debt to current liabilities as we anticipate to pay down the subordinated debt as allowed by the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America. Cash provided from operations during the six months ended April 30, 2017 was $66,000.

Our Credit Agreement with Bank of America (the “Bank”) provides a senior financing facility consisting of term debt and a revolving line of credit. As of April 30, 2017 we had $8,933,000 outstanding on our term loan. We have no funds borrowed from our line of credit with the Bank. We have a letter of credit of $1,327,000 secured by our line of credit resulting in $3,673,000 available to borrow on the line of credit as of April 30, 2017.

 

Our term debt amortizes over a five year period with 59 equal monthly installments of $133,333 and a final payment of $4,133,333 due in May 2020. The revolving line of credit matures in May 2018. There are various restrictive covenants under the Credit Agreement, and the Company is prohibited from entering into other debt agreements without the bank’s consent. The Credit Agreement also prohibits the Company from paying dividends without the prior consent of the bank.

 

Effective September 12, 2016, the Company amended its Credit Agreement with Bank of America (the “Second Amendment”). Under the Second Amendment, interest is paid at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus a margin based on the achievement of a specified leverage ratio. As of April 30, 2017, the margin was 2.50% for the term note and 2.25% for the revolving line of credit. The Company fixed the interest rate on a portion of its term debt by entering into an interest rate swap. As of April 30, 2017, the Company had $4,466,000 of the term debt subject to variable interest rates. The one-month LIBOR was 0.99% on April 30, 2017 resulting in total variable interest rates of 3.49% and 3.24%, for the term note and the revolving line of credit, respectively, as of April 30, 2017.

 

The following information pertains to the Company's outstanding interest rate swap at April 30, 2017.  The pay rate is fixed and the receive rate is one month LIBOR.

 

Instrument Notional Amount Pay Rate Receive Rate
Interest rate swap $4,466,668 1.25% 0.99%

 

The Second Amendment requires the Company to be in compliance with certain financial covenants as follows: (i) a maximum annual limit for capital expenditures of $4,000,000 each fiscal year, (ii) consolidated adjusted operating cash flows to consolidated total debt service ratio, as defined, to be no less than 1.5 to 1 for any reference period ending on or after October 31, 2016 and (iii) senior funded debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA, as defined, to be no greater than 2.5 to 1 as of the end of any fiscal quarter ending on or after October 31, 2016. As of April 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

 

In addition to the senior debt, as of April 30, 2017, the Company has subordinated debt owed to Henry, Peter and John Baker in the aggregate principal amount of $9,000,000 that is due November 20, 2020. On June 13, 2017, the Company made principal payments of $4,500,000 in the aggregate to the subordinated debt holders as allowed by the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Bank of America. The interest rate on each of these notes is 12% per annum.

In addition to our senior and subordinated debt commitments, we have significant future cash commitments, primarily in the form of operating leases that are not reported on the consolidated balance sheet. The following table sets forth our contractual commitments in the remainder of the current year and future fiscal years as of April 30, 2017:

 

    Payment due by Period
Contractual Obligations   Total   Remainder
of 2017
  2018-2019   2020-2021   After 2021
Debt (1)   $ 17,933,000     $ 5,300,000     $ 3,200,000     $ 9,433,000     $ -  
Interest on Debt (2)     2,726,000       514,000       1,553,000       659,000       -  
Operating Leases     8,858,000       1,452,000       4,685,000       2,592,000       129,000  
Total   $ 29,517,000     $ 7,266,000     $ 9,438,000     $ 12,684,000     $ 129,000  

 

(1) Debt payments in 2017 include payments of subordinated debt of $4,500,000.
     
(2) Interest based on 50% of outstanding senior debt at the hedged interest rate discussed above, 50% of outstanding senior debt at a variable rate of 3.49%, line of credit at a rate of 3.24%, and subordinated debt at a rate of 12%.
     
(3) Customer deposits have been excluded from the table. Deposit balances vary from period to period with water sales but future increases and decreases in the balances are not accurately predictable. Deposits are excluded because, net of periodic additions and reductions, it is probable that a customer deposit balance will always be outstanding as long as the business operates.

 

Effective June 13, 2017, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to its Credit Agreement with Bank of America. The Third Amendment increases the aggregate principal amount available under the revolving credit line from $5,000,000 to $6,000,000. In addition the Third Amendment allows the Company to use proceeds of the revolving credit line to make payments on the Subordinated Debt in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000. The Third Amendment also permits prepayment of up to $4,500,000 in the aggregate of Subordinated Debt.

 

We have no other material contractual obligations or commitments.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.

 

Pursuant to Regulation S-K, Item 305(e), smaller reporting companies are not required to provide this information.

 

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report, were adequate and effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us, including our consolidated subsidiary, in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive and Chief Financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The effectiveness of a system of disclosure controls and procedures is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of internal controls, and fraud. Due to such inherent limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of disclosure controls and procedures will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud, or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the six month period ended April 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
