(B) Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements. During the quarter, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" (SFAS No. 121). SFAS No. 121 requires that certain long-lived assets and intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. There was no material effect on the Company's financial statements from the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 121. 5 8 CENTEX CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Centex Construction Product's revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 totaled $61,058,000, an 11% increase over revenues of $55,104,000 for the same quarter last year. CXP's net earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were $9,863,000 versus $7,830,000 for the same quarter last year. Earnings per share for this year's quarter were $0.44 compared to $0.34 for the same quarter in fiscal 1996. The quarter's earnings gain resulted from all time high financial results in the Company's Cement, Gypsum Wallboard and Concrete operations. A strong national cement market and continued high national gypsum wallboard demand generated strong pricing during the current quarter. Also, construction activity in the Austin, Texas market continued strong, as reflected by a 35% increase in Concrete sales volume. The following table compares sales volume, average unit sales prices and unit operating margins for the Company's operations:
Cement Wallboard Concrete Aggregates (Ton) (MSF) (Cubic Yard) (Ton) ------------- -------------- -------------- --------------- Quarter Ended June 30, 1996 1995 1996 1995 1996 1995 1996 1995 ---------------------- ------- ------ ------- ------ ------ ------- ------ ------ Sales Volume (M) 583 520 173 158 177 140 467 792 Average Net Sales Price $62.94 $59.81 $87.36 $92.60 $46.01 $45.07 $ 4.26 $ 3.97 Operating Margin $17.25 $15.14 $19.86 $21.36 $ 7.67 $ 6.44 $ 0.84 $ 0.21
Cement revenues for the quarter totaled $36,677,000, up 18% above the same quarter in the prior year. Operating earnings were $10,053,000, a 28% increase over $7,878,000 for the same quarter last year. A combination of an additional 63,000 tons in sales volume and higher operating margins from a 5% increase in sales prices partially offset by a 2% increase in cost of sales accounted for the net quarterly gain in operating earnings. Price increases of $2 per ton and $5 per ton were implemented during the quarter in northern California and northern Texas, respectively. Last year's sales volume was negatively impacted by unfavorable weather conditions in CXP's western markets. Current quarter's production cost was up due mainly to the timing of a brick job at the Illinois plant and an increased percentage for the current quarter of higher costing western produced product. Gypsum Wallboard revenues of $15,089,000 for the quarter increased 3% over revenues of $14,633,000 for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Operating earnings for the quarter were $3,429,000, up slightly over $3,375,000 for the same period last year. Increased sales volume and reduced production cost, partially offset by a 6% decline in average net sales prices resulted in the net gain for the quarter. Sales volume of 173 million square feet ("MMSF") for this year's quarter was 10% higher than 158 MMSF sold during the prior year's quarter. Increased production volume 6 9 and additional inventory sales accounted for the sales volume gain. National wallboard consumption for the first six months of calendar 1996 was at a record pace as single-family home construction remained strong. CXP's average net sales price for the quarter was $87.36 per thousand board feet ("MSF"), 6% lower than $92.60 per MSF for the same quarter last year but higher than $86.42 per MSF for the March 31, 1996 quarter. Although the Company's average net sales price for Gypsum Wallboard was lower in fiscal 1996 than in fiscal 1995, it rebounded during the current quarter. Supported by strong housing activity, a nationwide price increase midway through the quarter raised CXP's sales price to approximately $89.00 per MSF by quarter end. Cost of sales decreased 6% due primarily to lower paper cost. Revenues from Concrete and Aggregates were $10,139,000 for the quarter this year, a 7% increase over $9,456,000 for the same quarter a year ago. Concrete and Aggregates reported an operating profit for the quarter of $1,750,000, up 63% over $1,071,000 for the same quarter last year. Concrete earnings increased 51% over last year's comparable quarter due to improved margins and a 35% gain in sales volume at the Austin concrete operation. Total Concrete sales volume for the quarter this year was 177,000 cubic yards, a 26% increase over 140,000 cubic yards for the same quarter last year. CXP's average Concrete net sales price of $46.01 per cubic yard for the current quarter was 2% higher than $45.07 for the same quarter a year ago. Aggregates earnings increased 118% over prior year's quarter due to higher operating margins. CXP's Aggregates operation reported sales volume of 467,000 tons for the quarter this year, 41% below sales volume of 792,000 tons for the same quarter last year. Sales volume decreased primarily due to the disposition of CXP's north Texas sand and gravel operation in last year's third quarter. Sales price gains, coupled with an increased percentage of sales of higher priced products, resulted in an average net sales price of $4.26 per ton for the current quarter, up 7% from $3.97 per ton last year. Other Income of $501,000 for the quarter decreased $352,000 from prior year's quarter due to a $220,000 land sales gain and $104,000 of clinker sales income last year. Other income included clinker sales, non-inventoried aggregate sales, trucking income, asset sales and other miscellaneous items. Net interest income for this year's quarter was $163,000 compared to last year's quarter interest expense of $485,000. Debt outstanding for the quarter and at June 30,1996 was $720,000 compared to $25 million outstanding at June 30, 1995. Cash balance at June 30,1996 was $22.6 million, up $1.8 million from $20.8 million at March 31, 1996. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM On December 5, 1994, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company repurchased on the open market and from Centex Corporation a total of 40,196 shares in fiscal year 1995, but none in fiscal year 1996. During the quarter ending June 30, 1996, CXP repurchased 778,400 shares of its common shares from the public. The share repurchases increased Centex Corporation's ownership interest from 49% to 50.6% at June 30, 1996. Since June 30, 1996 CXP has repurchased an additional 100,600 shares, increasing Centex Corporation's ownership to approximately 50.8%. As of August 12, 1996 CXP has repurchased a cumulative total of 919,196 shares. Also, during the current quarter, CXP's Board of Directors increased its share repurchase authorization to 2,000,000 shares from 1,000,000 shares. 7 10 FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company has a five year $35 million unsecured revolving credit facility to finance its working capital and capital expenditures requirements. Based on its financial condition and a relatively debt free balance sheet at June 30, 1996, CXP believes that its internally generated cash flow coupled with funds available under the credit facility will enable CXP to provide adequately for its current operations and future growth. Working capital at June 30, 1996 was $45.2 million, down slightly from $45.9 million at March 31, 1996. Stock repurchases during the quarter amounted to $11.3 million. Capital spending of $1.3 million for this quarter was down from prior year's quarter due to last year's recommissioning of the second kiln at the Laramie plant. OUTLOOK The Company's positive financial results during the first three months of fiscal 1997 reflect continued strength in demand and pricing for its Cement and Gypsum Wallboard products. Assuming no significant change in overall economic climate, Cement and Gypsum Wallboard demand should remain robust during the remainder of fiscal 1997. As a result, the Company should post its third consecutive record financial performance. At June 30, 1996 the Company was relatively debt free and well positioned to take advantage of potential expansion opportunities. 8 11 CENTEX CONSTRUCTION PRODUCTS, INC. PART II.
