Item 2. GRACO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
Net earnings in the third quarter of $4,248,000 increased $785,000 from the same
period a year ago as the company continues to have strong sales in the Americas
and reported growth both in Europe and in most of the Pacific, despite the
economic downturn in Japan and expenses associated with ongoing cost reduction
efforts. Net earnings of $10,279,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
1994 increased $130,000 from the same period a year ago.
Sales in the third quarter of $89,048,000 increased $7,297,000, or 9 percent,
from the same period in 1993. Third quarter sales in the Americas increased 10
percent overall to $57,900,000. Contractor Equipment sales and Lubrication
Equipment sales were both up 14 percent and Industrial/Automotive Equipment
sales rose 5 percent, with new product sales and an expanding economy continuing
to drive these increases. Sales in Europe were up 6 percent to $16,160,000 (a 2
percent volume increase, and a 4 percent gain due to exchange rates). In the
Pacific, sales were also up 6 percent to $14,988,000 (a 3 percent volume
increase, and a gain of 3 percent on exchange rates).
Sales for the nine months were $264,157,000, an 11 percent increase over the
same period last year. In the Americas, sales increased 17 percent to
$183,008,000. European sales were up 1 percent to $43,285,000 (a volume
increase of 3 percent, offset by a 2 percent exchange rate loss). Sales in the
Pacific decreased 4 percent to $37,864,000 (a 8 percent volume decline, offset
by a 4 percent exchange rate gain).
Operating expenses in the third quarter of $35,960,000 increased $2,571,000, or
8 percent, from the third quarter of 1993. Product development expense
increased 17 percent over 1993, as previously announced spending increases
continued. Selling expenses were up 10 percent, largely due to cost associated
with the Company's ongoing cost reduction efforts. Operating expenses for the
nine months increased $10,599,000, or 11 percent.
For the third quarter, overall bookings were up 13%. Bookings remain strong in
the Americas, were up significantly in Europe, but up only modestly in the
Pacific due to poor bookings in Japan. Backlog at September 30, 1994 was
$30,000,000, consistent with the previous quarter, but an increase of $10.6
million from $19.5 million on September 24, 1993.
The Company expects continued strong performance in the Americas and improved
performance in Europe as the economies there continue to strengthen. The
Pacific, and Japan in particular, remains weak. The Company is encouraged by
the increase in its bookings. It intends to continue making investments in
manufacturing efficiency and new product development, and is striving for a more
efficient global sales and marketing organization to improve its financial
performance.
Financial Condition
Accounts receivable increased $5,114,000 from the prior year-end due to the
increased sales volume, and inventories increased $22,122,000 primarily in
production and in Europe for engineered systems. Property, plant and equipment
totaling $15,151,000 was purchased year-to-date. Marketable securities were
sold to fund the special one-time dividend of $31,200,000 which was paid in
March of this year.
The Company has unused lines of credit available at September 30, 1994, totaling
$27 million.
