INDUSTRIAL SERVICES OF AMERICA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U. S. 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 U. S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. The information furnished includes all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of March 31, 2006 and the results of our operations and changes in our cash flow for the periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. Results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Additional information, including the audited December 31, 2005 consolidated financial statements and the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, is included our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, using the modified prospective method. The impact of adopting SFAS 123R on our consolidated results of operations depends on the level of future option grants and the fair value of the options granted at such future dates, as well as the vesting periods provided by such awards. Existing outstanding options did not result in additional compensation expense upon adoption of SFAS 123R since all outstanding options were fully vested.

 

NOTE 2 -- ESTIMATES

 

In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, management must make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as affecting the disclosures provided. Future results could differ from the current estimates.

 

NOTE 3 -- LONG TERM DEBT AND NOTES PAYABLE TO BANK

 

We currently maintain a $5.0 million senior revolving credit facility with the Branch Banking and Trust Company. Indebtedness under this credit facility accrues interest at BB&T's prime rate less one eighth. The maturity date under this agreement is January 2008. We have collateralized the credit facility with all our assets. As of March 31, 2006 we had borrowed $1,500,000 and as of December 31, 2005, there were no borrowings against the credit facility. The terms of the credit facility place certain restrictive covenants on us, including maintenance of a specified tangible net worth, debt to net worth and EBITDA ratio. Consequently, these covenants restrict our ability to incur as much additional debt as we may desire for future growth. At March 31, 2006, we were in compliance with all restrictive covenants and the entire amount of our credit facility (less our outstanding borrowings) was available for borrowings.

 

NOTE 4 -- SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company's operations include three primary segments: ISA Recycling, Computerized Waste Systems (CWS), and Waste Equipment Sales & Service (WESSCO). ISA Recycling provides products and services to meet the needs of its customers related to ferrous, non-ferrous and fiber recycling at two locations in the Midwest. CWS provides waste disposal services including contract negotiations with service providers, centralized billing, invoice auditing, and centralized dispatching. WESSCO sells, leases, and services waste handling and recycling equipment.

The Company's three reportable segments are determined by the products and services that each offers. The recycling segment generates its revenues based on buying and selling of ferrous, non-ferrous and fiber scrap; CWS's revenues consist of charges to customers for waste disposal services; and WESSCO sales and lease income comprise the primary source of revenue for this segment. The components of the column labeled "other" are selling, general and administrative expenses that are not directly related to the three primary segments.

 

We evaluate segment performance based on gross profit or loss and the evaluation process for each segment includes only direct expenses and selling, general and administrative costs, omitting any other income and expense and income taxes.

NOTE 5 -- INVENTORIES

 

Our inventories primarily consist of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metals and are valued at the lower of average purchased cost or market. Quantities of inventories are determined based on our inventory systems and are subject to periodic physical verification using estimation techniques including observation, weighing and other industry methods. We would recognize inventory impairment when the market value, based upon current market pricing, falls below recorded value or when the estimated volume is less than the recorded volume of the inventory. We would record the loss in cost of goods sold in the period during which we identified the loss.

 

Some commodities are in saleable condition at acquisition. We purchase these commodities in small amounts until we have a truckload of material available for shipment. Some commodities are not in saleable condition at acquisition. These commodities must be torched, sheared or baled. We do not have work-in-process inventory that needs to be manufactured to become finished goods. We include processing costs in inventory for all commodities. Ferrous inventory of $1,214,402 at March 31, 2006 was comprised of $452,449 in raw materials and $761,953 of finished goods. Non-ferrous inventory of $1,148,450 at March 31, 2006 was comprised of $344,787 in raw materials and $803,663 of finished goods. Ferrous inventory of $1,380,050 at December 31, 2005 was comprised of $402,041 in raw materials and $978,009 of finished goods. Non-ferrous inventory of $961,085 at December 31, 2005 was comprised of $196,508 in raw materials and $764,577 of finished goods. We charged $514,131 in general and administrative processing costs to cost of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and $2,015,733 for the year ended December 31, 2005.

 

Inventory also includes all types of industrial waste handling equipment and machinery held for resale such as compactors, balers, and containers. Other inventory includes cardboard and baling wire. Inventories as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 consist of the following:

NOTE 7 -- LITIGATION SETTLEMENT
 
Effective as of May 5, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Andrew M. Lassak to settle Mr. Lassak's claims against us in Lassak v. Industrial Services of America, Inc., et al, No. 04-423-CA (Fla. 19th Cir. Ct. filed June 2, 2004).  Lassak's demands and claims included rights to purchase 240,500 shares of our common stock for $1.25 per share, rights to purchase 149,500 shares of our common stock for $3.00 per share, and demand and piggyback registration rights as well as cashless exercise rights with respect to such options. Since the inception of the suit, we have disputed Lassak's claims and have denied any liability for Lassak's claims and demands. The settlement agreement requires us to grant Lassak an option to purchase 40,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share. The terms of the settlement also require us to file a registration statement for the 40,000 shares by May 24, 2006, with a penalty for our failure to timely file the registration statement of $500 per day until filed.  In addition, Lassak has the right under the settlement agreement with respect to the shares subject to the option to enter into variable prepaid forward contracts or other arrangements to hedge against market risk.  The estimated fair value of these options is approximately $270,000.


 

 

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

 

The following discussion and analysis contains certain financial predictions, forecasts and projections which constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Actual results could differ materially from those financial predictions, forecasts and projections and there can be no assurance that we will achieve such financial predictions, forecasts and projections. Factors that could affect financial predictions, forecasts and projections include the fluctuations in the commodity price index and any conditions internal to our major customers, including loss of their accounts and other factors as listed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

General

 

We continue to pursue a growth strategy in the waste management services arena by adding new locations of existing customers as well as marketing our services to potential customers. Currently, we service 1,475 customer locations throughout the United States and we utilize an active database of over 6,000 vendors to provide timely, thorough and cost-effective service to our customers. Our goal is that our marketing strategy will allow us to continue to add new customers which will lead to a diversification of business opportunities so that we are not as dependent upon the operating results of the recycling division or on a single customer. We intend for this diversification to help to stabilize revenues and gross profit during a period of time when commodity prices fluctuate and affect the ferrous and non-ferrous markets, or we are in need of replacing contracts that our customers may not renew. Much of our focus and attention now and in the future is directed towards the growth of the management services business segment through expansion in the existing markets. We are also focused upon technology enhancements that we can provide to the new and existing customer base to further solidify customer relationships. Additionally, we are exploring strategic alliances and relationships that will enable us to effectively execute our growth. We will also continue to focus on initiating growth in our ferrous and non-ferrous recycling and processing operations and our waste and recycling equipment sales, service and leasing division.

 

We have operating locations in Louisville and Lexington, Kentucky and Seymour, Indiana. We do not have operating locations outside the United States but we service 1,475 customer locations throughout the United States, building a base of approximately 965 service providers. We have no revenue or cost of goods sold derived from customers located outside the United States. We do not separate selling, general and administrative expenses between customers located in the United States or outside the United States.

 

Our goal is to remain dedicated to the recycling, management services, and equipment industry while sustaining steady growth at an acceptable profit, adding to our net worth, and providing positive returns for stockholders. We intend to increase efficiencies and productivity in our core business while remaining alert for possible acquisitions, strategic partnerships, mergers and joint-ventures that would enhance our profitability.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2006 we held cash and cash equivalents of $688,072.

 

We currently maintain a $5.0 million senior revolving credit facility with the Branch Banking and Trust Company. Indebtedness under this credit facility accrues interest at BB&T's prime rate less one eighth. The maturity date under this agreement is January 2008. We have collateralized the credit facility with all our assets. As of March 31, 2006 we had borrowed $1,500,000 and as of December 31, 2005, there were no borrowings against the credit facility. The terms of the credit facility place certain restrictive covenants on us, including maintenance of a specified tangible net worth, debt to net worth and EBITDA ratio. Consequently, these covenants restrict our ability to incur as much additional debt as we may desire for future growth. At March 31, 2006, we were in compliance with all restrictive covenants and the entire amount of our credit facility (less the outstanding borrowings) was available for borrowings.

 

During the first quarter of 2006, we purchased $242,920 of property and equipment. In the recycling segment we spent $132,410 for a forklift, on crane improvements, and to upgrade the radiation detection system. In the equipment sales, leasing and service segment, we purchased $106,344 in rental equipment that we located at customer sites. This rental fleet equipment consists of solid waste handling and recycling equipment such as compactors, containers and balers. It is our intention to continue to pursue this market. We purchased office equipment of $4,166.

 

We implemented the use of a purchasing card with a credit limit of $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2004. We have included the balance due on the purchasing card as part of accounts payable. The outstanding balance on the purchasing card at March 31, 2006 was $1,165,271 with a due date of April 15, 2006. The card accrues interest at prime plus 5.9% after the first twenty-five days of the purchase; our intention is to pay off the full balance every month so as to not incur finance charges. To date we have not incurred any interest charges on this purchasing card. The card requires monthly minimum payments on any balance outstanding at month end. We receive rebates on an annual basis for all purchases made with the card.

 

We expect that existing cash flow from operations and available credit under our existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our cash needs in 2006.

Three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to three months ended March 31, 2005

 

Total revenue decreased $15,190,450 or 51.2% to $14,484,020 in 2006 compared to $29,674,470 in 2005. Recycling revenue increased $2,420,612 or 31.5% to $10,103,299 in 2006 compared to $7,682,687 in 2005. This is primarily due to an increase of 26% in the volume of shipments and a 15% increase in price of commodities in the recycling market. Management services revenue decreased $17,376,083 or 81.5% to $3,944,919 in 2006 compared to $21,321,002 in 2005. This change is due to the loss of Home Depot as a customer. Equipment, service and leasing revenue decreased $234,979 or 35.0% to $435,802 in 2006 compared to $670,781 in 2005. This decrease is due to a decrease in rental revenue, cardboard and service and repairs.

 

Total cost of goods sold decreased $15,477,513 or 55.4% to $12,445,474 in 2006 compared to $27,922,987 in 2005. Recycling cost of goods sold increased $1,560,930 or 21.8% to $8,722,662 in 2006 compared to $7,161,732 in 2005. This is due to an increase of 3% in the volume of purchases and 47% higher commodity purchase prices in the recycling market. Management services cost of goods sold decreased $16,865,486 or 82.8% to $3,499,480 in 2006 compared to $20,364,966 in 2005 due to the loss of Home Depot as a customer. Equipment, service and leasing cost of goods sold decreased $172,957 or 43.6% to $223,331 in 2006 compared to $396,289 in 2005. The decrease is due to a decrease in equipment costs.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $144,020 or 9.6% to $1,349,853 in 2006 compared to $1,493,873 in 2005. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 9.3% in 2006 compared to 5.0% in 2006. The percentage of revenue increase is due to lower revenue in the first quarter of 2006. Drivers of the decrease in total expenses include the following:

 

·   

Labor decreased $98,000 primarily due to cutbacks in service and clerical labor, sales managers, supervisors, and group insurance savings.

·   

Insurance costs decreased $25,000 due to a new insurance contract.

·   

Legal expenses decreased $20,000 due to decreased spending on the Lassak case.

 

Other income (expense) increased $14,646 to other income of $5,518 in 2006 compared to other expense of ($9,128) in 2005. This was primarily due to an increase in other miscellaneous income of $7,421 (bankruptcy recoveries and voided outstanding checks) and a decrease in loss on sale of assets of $6,680.

Financial condition at March 31, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005

 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1,033,229 to $688,072 as of March 31, 2006 compared to $1,721,301 as of December 31, 2005.

 

We used net cash from operating activities of $2,246,007 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Primarily this was due to a decrease of $2,145,738 in accounts payable in the first quarter of 2006.

 

We used net cash from investing activities of $241,765 for the quarter ending March 31, 2006. Primarily, we purchased recycling and rental fleet equipment. We made recycling equipment purchases of $132,410 and rental fleet equipment purchases of $106,344 in the first quarter of 2006. The rental fleet equipment consists of solid waste handling and recycling equipment such as compactors, containers and balers. It is our intention to continue to pursue this market.

 

Our net cash from financing activities of $1,454,543 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 is primarily due to the advance of $1,500,000 on our line of credit, offset by purchases of treasury stock and payments on capital lease obligations.

 

Accounts receivable trade increased $1,118,604 or 24.8% to $5,621,449 as of March 31, 2006 compared to $4,502,845 as of December 31, 2005. This change is primarily due to an increase in the volume of shipments and an increase in the selling prices in the Recycling segment.

 

Inventories consist principally of ferrous and nonferrous scrap materials and waste equipment machinery held for resale. We value inventory at the lower of cost or market. Inventory increased $25,669 or 1% to $2,514,278 as of March 31, 2006 compared to $2,488,609 as of December 31, 2005.

(1) We currently maintain a $5.0 million senior revolving credit facility with the Branch Banking and Trust Company. Indebtedness under this credit facility accrues interest at BB&T's prime rate less one eighth. The maturity date under this agreement is January 2008. We have collateralized the credit facility with all our assets.

 

(2) We lease various pieces of equipment that qualify for capital lease treatment. These lease arrangements require monthly lease payments expiring at various dates through May 2008.

 

(3) We lease the Louisville, Kentucky facility from K&R, LLC, the sole member of which is Harry Kletter, our chief executive officer, under an operating lease expiring December 2007. We have monthly rental payments of $42,106 through December 2007. In the event of a change of control, the monthly payments become $62,500.

 

We also lease a management services operations facility and various pieces of equipment in Dallas, Texas for which monthly payments of $2,525 are due through September 2007.

Long-term debt increased $1,500,000 as of March 31, 2006 compared to no long term debt December 31, 2005.

 

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and amends SFAS No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an option. The provisions of Statement No. 123(R) are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

 

As permitted by SFAS No. 123, we historically accounted for stock option grants in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and, as the strike price of options issued was equal to grant date fair value, we did not recognize compensation cost for employee stock option issuances. We adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. The adoption had no impact on us as the outstanding options were fully vested.

 

SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change.

 

Item 3:    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

        Fluctuating commodity prices affect market risk in our recycling segment. We mitigate this risk by selling our product on a monthly contract basis. Each month we negotiate selling prices for all commodities. Based on these monthly agreements, we determine purchase prices based on a margin needed to cover processing and administrative expenses.

 

        We are exposed to interest rate risk on our floating rate borrowings. As of March 31, 2006, variable rate borrowings consisted of outstanding borrowings of $1.5 million under our credit agreement. Borrowings on our credit agreement bear interest at the prime rate. Any increase in prime rate would lead to higher interest expense. We do not have any interest rate swaps or caps in place, which would mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in the interest rate on this indebtedness. Based on our average anticipated borrowings under our credit agreement in fiscal 2006, a hypothetical increase or decrease in the prime rate by 1% would increase or decrease interest expense on our variable borrowings by approximately $15,000 per year, with a corresponding change in cash flows.

 

ITEM 4:    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a)       Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

 

        Based on the evaluation of the ISA Chief Executive Officer and the ISA Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2006, it has been concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the purposes contemplated by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d -- 15(e) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

(b)       Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

 

        There have been no significant changes to ISA's internal controls or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these controls over financial reporting subsequent to March 31, 2006.


 

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

   
   

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

   
 

Effective as of May 5, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Andrew M. Lassak to settle Mr. Lassak's claims against us in Lassak v. Industrial Services of America, Inc., et al, No. 04-423-CA (Fla. 19th Cir. Ct. filed June 2, 2004).  Lassak's demands and claims included rights to purchase 240,500 shares of our common stock for $1.25 per share, rights to purchase 149,500 shares of our common stock for $3.00 per share, and demand and piggyback registration rights as well as cashless exercise rights with respect to such options. Since the inception of the suit, we have disputed Lassak's claims and have denied any liability for Lassak's claims and demands. The settlement agreement requires us to grant Lassak an option to purchase 40,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share. The terms of the settlement also require us to file a registration statement for the 40,000 shares by May 24, 2006, with a penalty for our failure to timely file the registration statement of $500 per day until filed.  In addition, Lassak has the right under the settlement agreement with respect to the shares subject to the option to enter into variable prepaid forward contracts or other arrangements to hedge against market risk.  The estimated fair value of these options is approximately $270,000.
