Item 2. GRACO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
Net earnings of $1,836,000 for the first quarter ended April 1, 1994 were
$736,000 below 1993 earnings due to higher expenses.
Sales of $80,930,000 for the first quarter increased 4 percent compared to 1993.
Sales in the Americas increased 12 percent to $58,684,000. In the Pacific,
sales were down 15 percent to $10,193,000 (a 20 percent volume decline, offset
by a 5 percent exchange rate gain). Sales in Europe were down 11 percent to
$12,053,000 (a 5 percent volume decline, and 6 percent due to exchange rates).
Gross profit margins increased during the first quarter 1994 to 47.5 percent of
sales from 46.5 percent for the same period in 1993, due to improved
manufacturing efficiencies and higher production levels.
Operating expenses increased $3,976,000 or 13 percent compared to the same
period in 1993. Product development expense increased 28 percent over 1993, as
the Company continues to substantially expand its investment in new products.
Selling expenses were up 15 percent, and general and administrative expenses
were up 4 percent.
At the end of the first quarter, bookings were very strong in the Americas, flat
in Europe, and down in the Pacific. For the Company, bookings were up 13
percent. Backlog at April 1, 1994, was $33 million, an increase of $10 million
from $23 million on March 26, 1993, and an increase of $13 million from $20
million on December 31, 1993. Graco expects to ship most of this increase
during the second quarter.
The Company expects strong demand in the Americas to continue to drive its sales
growth and profitability. The sharp sales decline experienced in Europe last
year appears to be leveling off, based on recent booking trends. The Japanese
market remains very depressed, and is expected to remain so in the foreseeable
future. Graco expects some sales growth in the other Asia/Pacific-countries,
but not at the extraordinary rate of last year. Overall, the Company expects
continued sales growth and improved margins throughout 1994, as investments
already underway begin to take effect and help improve performance.
Financial Condition
Cash uses were for operating activities. The Company has unused lines of credit
available at April 1, 1994, totaling $43 million.
