HAWKINS CHEMICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and,
accordingly, do not include all information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended September 29, 1996, previously filed with the
Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position and the
results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to
the Company's financial statements in the 1996 Hawkins Chemical, Inc.
Annual Report which is incorporated by reference to Form 10-K filed with
the Commission on December 30, 1996.
2. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full
year.
3. Inventories, principally valued by the LIFO method, are less than current
cost by approximately $1,162,400 at June 30, 1997. Inventory consists
principally of finished goods. Inventory quantities fluctuate during the
year. No material amounts of interim liquidation of inventory quantities
have occurred that are not expected to be replaced by year-end.
4. Earnings per common share are based upon the weighted average number of
shares outstanding after giving retroactive effect to a 5% stock dividend
declared February 12, 1997 to shareholders of record at the close of
business on March 28, 1997. Cash dividends in the amount of $997,273 were
paid on April 11, 1997.
5. On May 29 1997, the Company sold the inventory and operations of The Lynde
Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary which specialized in swimming pool
chemicals, for $2,590,000, effective March 1, 1997. The Company recorded a
gain on the sale of approximately $1,324,800. At closing, Hawkins received
$500,000 and a note receivable for the balance. The note receivable is due
over the next 6 years plus interest at 8%.
Revenues for Lynde for the nine-month period ending June 30, 1997 and 1996
were $725,500 and $2,411,500, respectively. Lynde recorded a net loss
of $19,600 for the nine-month period ending June 30, 1997 and net income
of $154,200 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 1996.
6. On March 1, 1995, the Company and its subsidiary The Lynde Company were
named as defendants in an action entitled DONNA M. COOKSEY, ET AL. V.
HAWKINS CHEMICAL, INC. AND THE LYNDE COMPANY. This proceeding is pending
in state district court in Hennepin County, Minnesota. On March 28, 1997,
the court issued its decision on the plaintiffs' motion for class
certification. The court denied class certification as to all issues
except the issue of whether the Company is liable for the fire. Issues as
to whether a particular person was exposed to anything hazardous, whether
the alleged exposure
6
caused any injuries, and whether any damages resulted were not certified by
the court and must be the subject of a separate suit or claim by each
person seeking damages. The court also rejected the plaintiffs' motion to
set aside the approximately 470 individual settlements which Hawkins
previously entered into with potential claimants. A trial on the issue of
liability has been set for October 20, 1997.
Earlier, by order dated February 8, 1997, the Court granted the plaintiffs'
motion to plead a claim for punitive damages on the ground the Company did
not have a sprinkler system installed at the time of the fire. This
decision means that the plaintiffs may ask the jury to award punitive
damages if the plaintiffs can prove by clear and convincing evidence that
the Company acted in deliberate disregard of the rights and safety of
others. The Company, with its consultant, was in the process of designing
a sprinkler system and hiring a contractor to install the system at the
time of the fire, in accordance with a schedule approved by the Minneapolis
Fire Department. Accordingly, while the court has allowed the plaintiffs
to plead a claim for punitive damages, the Company believes there is no
factual basis to support such an award. The Company anticipates asking the
court, at the appropriate time, to dismiss the punitive damage claim as a
matter of law.
7. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per Share."
This statement specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure
requirements for earnings per share. This Statement is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997,
including interim periods. The Company does not believe the adoption of
SFAS No. 128 will have a material impact on the financial statements.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CONTINUING OPERATIONS
Net sales increased $1,591,966, or 7.1%, in the third quarter of this fiscal
year and $6,339,471, or 10.9%, in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as
compared to the same periods a year ago. Net sales excluding The Lynde Company,
as this subsidiary was sold (see Note 5 and discussion below), increased
$3,086,668, or 14.9%, in the third quarter of this fiscal year and $8,025,495,
or 14.4%, in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to the same
periods a year ago. The revenue increases were primarily due to volume
increases throughout all of the Company's operating divisions and subsidiaries.
Gross margin, as a percentage of net sales, for the third quarter of this fiscal
year was 24.7% compared to 24.5% for the same quarter one year ago, and 22.5%
for the first nine months of both fiscal 1997 and 1996. The third quarter
increase was mainly due to maintaining the same dollar profit margin of a
single, large-volume product where the cost and selling price had decreased from
one year ago. The demand for this product does not fluctuate materially as the
cost and selling price increase or decrease. By maintaining stable dollar
margins, the gross margin percentage will generally increase when the cost of
the product is decreasing. The Company has generally been able to and expects
to continue to adjust its selling prices as the cost of materials and other
expenses change, thereby maintaining relatively stable dollar gross margins.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $342,371, or 14.3%, in
the third quarter and $646,823, or 10.0%, in the first nine months of fiscal
1997 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 1996. Selling, general and
administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, for the third quarter of
fiscal 1997 were 11.5% compared to 10.8% for the same quarter one year ago, and
11.0% for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to 11.1% for the
first nine months of fiscal 1996. These increases were mainly due to increased
employee compensation and benefits, which make up the majority of the selling,
general and administrative expenditures. Of the remaining expenses in this
category, no single item is more than 7% of the total. Most of these expenses
fluctuate only slightly with sales.
Income from operations increased $99,470, or 3.3%, in the third quarter and
$769,394, or 11.6%, in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 as compared to the
same periods one year ago. These increases are primarily attributable to the
net sales increase.
OTHER INCOME
Interest income increased $103,228 in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 as
compared to the same quarter one year ago and increased $135,345 for the first
nine months of this fiscal year as compared to the same period one year ago.
These increases are due to an increase in the amount of cash available for
investments and to a higher rate of return earned on cash equivalents and
investments. Interest expense decreased slightly due mainly to the decline in
long term debt.
On May 29, 1997, the Company reached an agreement, effective March 1, 1997, to
sell the inventory and operations of The Lynde Company. The sale resulted in a
gain of $1,324,827. Sales for Lynde were $725,500 and $2,411,500 for the nine-
month periods ending June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Lynde had a net loss
of $19,600 for the nine-month period ending June 30, 1997 and net income of
$154,200 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 1996.
8
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
For the nine-month period ended June 30, 1997, cash flows from operations were
$3,215,744. This amount is $739,720 lower than cash provided by operations
during the same period one year ago, due to changes in certain current assets
and liability accounts discussed below. During the nine-month period ended June
30, 1997, the Company invested an additional $368,068 in short-term investments
and added $2,660,706 in property and equipment additions.
Accounts receivable increased due to increased sales in the quarter.
Inventories and accounts payable decreased due to the sale of the business of
the Lynde subsidiary discussed previously and to the decrease in the cost of a
single, large-volume product. Other current assets increased due to payments of
prepaid expenses that will be charged to the remaining quarter of this fiscal
year. Other current liabilities decreased as a result of the payment of benefit
plan accruals that existed at fiscal year end. The Company did not issue any
securities during the nine-month period ended June 30, 1997.
The cash flows from operations, coupled with the Company's strong cash position,
puts the Company in a position to fund both short and long-term working capital
and capital investment needs with internally generated funds. Management does
not, therefore, anticipate the need to engage in significant financing
activities in either the short or long-term. If the need to obtain additional
capital does arise, however, management is confident that the Company's total
debt to capital ratio puts it in a position to issue either debt or equity
securities on favorable terms.
Although management continually reviews opportunities to enhance the value of
the Company through strategic acquisitions, other capital investments and
strategic divestitures, no material commitments for such investments or
divestitures currently exist. Until appropriate investment opportunities are
identified, the Company will continue to invest excess cash in conservative
investments. Cash equivalents consist of short-term certificates of deposit and
investments consist of relatively low-risk investment and annuity contracts with
highly rated, stable insurance companies, and marketable securities consisting
of investment grade municipal securities, all of which are carried at cost which
approximates fair value. All cash equivalents are highly liquid and are
available upon demand. There are some penalties associated with the early
liquidation of the Company's investment and annuity contracts.
Other than as discussed above, management is not aware of any matters that have
materially affected the first nine months of fiscal 1997, but are not expected
to materially affect future periods, nor is management aware of other matters
not affecting this period that are expected to materially affect future periods.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The following information was reported in the Registrant's Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, previously filed with the Commission.
LYNDE COMPANY WAREHOUSE FIRE. On March 1, 1995, the Company and its
subsidiary The Lynde Company were named as defendants in an action entitled
DONNA M. COOKSEY, ET AL. V. HAWKINS CHEMICAL, INC. AND THE LYNDE COMPANY.
This proceeding is pending in state district court in Hennepin County,
Minnesota. On March 28, 1997, the court issued its decision on the
plaintiffs' motion for class certification. The court denied class
certification as to all issues except the issue of whether the Company is
liable for the fire. Issues as to whether a particular person was exposed
to anything hazardous, whether the alleged exposure caused any injuries,
and whether any damages resulted were not certified by the court and must
be the subject of a separate suit or claim by each person seeking damages.
The court also rejected the plaintiffs' motion to set aside the
approximately 470 individual settlements which Hawkins previously entered
into with potential claimants. A trial on the issue of liability has been
set for October 20, 1997.
Earlier, by order dated February 8, 1997, the Court granted the plaintiffs'
motion to plead a claim for punitive damages on the ground the Company did
not have a sprinkler system installed at the time of the fire. This
decision means that the plaintiffs may ask the jury to award punitive

factual basis to support such an award. The Company anticipates asking the
court, at the appropriate time, to dismiss the punitive damage claim as a

There have been no material changes in the status of the legal proceedings
described above since the filing of the Company's quarterly report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
