Even though the Company has reported its results on a fully taxed basis, it still has approximately $124 million of tax loss carryforwards available at July 2, 2000, which can be utilized to offset future federal income taxes payable.
Second quarter sales were negatively affected by lower shipment volume to the Company’s non-licorice natural product customers. This decline was partially offset by an increase in revenues from the Company’s domestic and foreign licorice operations. A reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses and raw material costs enabled the Company to improve its operating margin to 38.8% as compared to 35.9% in the prior year quarter.
Outstanding debt declined from $46.0 million at April 2, 2000, to $41.1 million at July 2, 2000.
