NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation -
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. The balance sheet at September 30, 1994 has
been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the three-month period ended December 31, 1994 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30,
1995. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report to shareholders
for the year ended September 30, 1994. The Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities," for the year beginning October 1, 1994. Adoption
of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.
At the February 8, 1995 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the stockholders
approved changing the Company's name to "Griffon Corporation." The name change
will become effective in March 1995.
(2) Inventories -
Inventories, stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out or average)
or market, are comprised of the following:
December 31, September 30,

------------ -------------
Finished goods . . . . . . . . . . $20,321,000 $16,664,000

Raw materials and supplies . . . . 28,272,000 25,580,000
----------- -----------
$75,526,000 $68,918,000
=========== ===========
(3) Net Income Per Share -
Net income per share is calculated using the weighted average number of
shares of common stock, and where dilutive, common stock equivalents outstanding
during each period. Shares used in computing per share results were 35,294,000
and 37,928,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.
(4) Notes Payable -
In December 1994, $9,000,000 which was outstanding under a long-term debt
agreement was refinanced under a short-term line of credit. Interest on this
obligation is at approximately the prime rate.
(5) Self-Tender Offer -
In December 1994, the Company completed a self-tender offer for 3,002,840
shares of the Company's Common Stock, which were then retired, at a price of
$8.75 per share. During the quarter, approximately $28,200,000 was expended to
purchase a total of 3,120,040 shares of Common Stock.
(6) Acquisitions -
During the quarter ended December 31, 1994, the Company acquired two
companies for the building products business for an aggregate price of
$7,758,000. The acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Net sales were $133.6 million in the three-month period ended December 31,
1994, an increase of $17.4 million or 15.0% over last year.
Net sales of the building products business were $79.9 million, an
increase of $18.8 million or 30.8% over last year. Acquired businesses
accounted for $7.3 million of the higher sales; the remainder of the increase
was principally due to increased unit sales of garage doors ($8.5 million),
improved product mix and increased prices.
Net sales of the specialty plastic films business were $26.6 million
compared to $26.9 million last year. As previously reported, a major customer
of the specialty plastic films business has made a design change which will
phase out the specialty plastic's thin laminate program through the first half
of 1995. During the quarter, increased unit sales ($2.9 million) of health care
and film products other than thin laminate to this and other customers and the
effect of higher selling prices ($1.2 million) were offset by decreased thin
laminate sales.
Net sales of the electronic information and communication systems business
were $17.5 million, decreasing $1.7 million or 8.7% compared to last year. The
lower sales were principally due to decreased revenues on certain military
programs that are nearing completion, partially offset by increased commercial
business and increased funding of continuing programs.
Income from operations for the three-month period ended December 31, 1994
was $12.7 million, an increase of $1.3 million or 11.2% over last year.
Operating income of the building products business increased $2.8 million over
last year primarily due to the increased sales. Operating income of the
specialty plastic films business decreased by $1.2 million compared to last year
primarily due to the phase-out of the thin laminate program and raw material
price increases for polyethylene resin used in its business in excess of selling
price increases. It is expected that prices for this material will increase
further in fiscal 1995. The Company has been able to pass on such increases to
its customers in the past, although there is no assurance as to the timing or
extent that it will be able to do so during fiscal 1995. Operating income of
the electronic information and communication systems business decreased by $.4
million principally due to the sales decrease partially offset by slightly lower
G&A expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flow used by operations was $1.8 million, reflecting a reduction of
current liabilities of approximately $15.4 million.
In December 1994, the Company completed a self-tender offer for 3,002,840
shares of its Common Stock at a price of $8.75 per share. During the quarter,
a total of $28.2 million was used to acquire 3,120,040 shares of Common Stock.
These purchases were funded by existing cash and marketable securities, which
decreased due to the stock purchases and $7.8 million used for two acquisitions
for the building products business.
Anticipated cash flows from operations, together with existing cash and
lease line availability, should be adequate to finance presently anticipated
working capital and capital expenditure requirements.
