The Company

 

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. (“Alpha Pro Tech,” the “Company,” “we”, “us” or “our”) is in the business of protecting people, products and environments. The Company accomplishes this by developing, manufacturing and marketing a line of building supply products for the new home and re-roofing markets and a line of disposable protective apparel for the cleanroom, industrial, pharmaceutical, medical and dental markets.

 

The Building Supply segment consists of construction weatherization products, such as housewrap, housewrap accessories, namely tape and flashing, and synthetic roof underlayment, as well as other woven material.

 

The Disposable Protective Apparel segment consists of a complete line of disposable protective garments (shoecovers, bouffant caps, coveralls, gowns, frocks and lab coats), face masks and face shields. All of our disposable protective apparel products, including face masks and face shields, are sold through similar distribution channels, are single-use and disposable, have the purpose of protecting people, products and environments, and have to be produced in Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved facilities, regardless of the market served.

 

The Company’s products are sold under the "Alpha Pro Tech" brand name as well as under private label, and are predominantly sold in the United States of America (“US”).

 

The ongoing novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has adversely affected global economies, financial markets and the overall environment in which we do business. Overall, the increase in sales of our Disposable Protective Apparel segment products resulting from the pandemic has had a positive impact on our year-to-date results, but the positive impact in 2022 is less than in 2021 and 2020, as the effects of COVID-19 are normalizing. The extent of the pandemic’s effect on our future operational and financial performance will depend in large part on future developments, which cannot be predicted with confidence at this time. Future developments include the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic and new variants, including the Omicron variants, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact, the impact on governmental programs and budgets, the development of treatments or vaccines, and the efficacy of mass vaccinations, and the resumption of widespread economic activity in certain sectors. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and rapidly evolving situation, we are unable to predict with any certainty the likely impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations.

Net sales includes revenue from products and shipping and handling charges, net of estimates for product returns and any related sales incentives. Our customer contracts have a single performance obligation: transfer control of products to customers. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for transferring control of products. All revenue is recognized when we satisfy our performance obligations under the applicable contract. We recognize revenue in connection with transferring control of the promised products to the customer, with revenue being recognized at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the products, which is generally when title passes to the customer upon delivery to a third party carrier for FOB shipping point arrangements and to the customer for FOB destination arrangements, at which time a receivable is created for the invoice sent to the customer. Shipping and handling activities are performed prior to the customer obtaining control of the goods, and are accounted for as fulfillment activities and are not a promised good or service. Shipping and handling charges billed to customers are included in revenue. Shipping and handling costs, associated with the distribution of the Company’s product to the customers, are recorded in cost of goods sold and are recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which is generally when title passes to the customer upon delivery to a third party carrier for FOB shipping point arrangements and to the customer for FOB destination arrangements. We estimate product returns based on historical return rates and estimate rebates based on contractual agreements. Using probability assessments, we estimate sales incentives expected to be paid over the term of the contract. Sales taxes and value added taxes in foreign and domestic jurisdictions that are collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and, therefore, are excluded from net sales. The Company manufactures certain private label goods for customers and has determined that control does not pass to the customer at the time of manufacture, based upon the nature of the private labelling. The Company has determined as of June 30, 2022 that it had no material contract assets, and concluded that its contract liabilities (primarily rebates) had the right of offset against customer receivables. See Note 9 and Note 10 of these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for information on revenue disaggregated by type and by geographic region.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company previously granted stock options to employees and non-employee directors under a stock option plan (the “2004 Option Plan”). Stock options have been granted with exercise prices at or above the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. Options vest and expire according to terms established at the grant date.

 

At the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 9, 2020, the Company’s shareholders approved the Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Incentive Plan”). The 2020 Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance share awards, cash awards and other equity-based awards to employees (including officers), consultants and non-employee directors of the Company and its affiliates. A total of  i 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2020 Incentive Plan, plus the number of shares underlying any award granted under the 2004 Option Plan that expires, terminates or is cancelled or forfeited under the terms of the 2004 Option Plan. As a result of the approval of the 2020 Incentive Plan, no future equity awards will be made pursuant to the 2004 Option Plan. Although no new awards may be granted under the 2004 Option Plan, all previously granted awards under the 2004 Option Plan will continue to be governed by the terms of the 2004 Option Plan.

 

The Company records compensation expense for the fair value of stock-based awards determined as of the grant date, including employee stock options and restricted stock awards over the determined requisite service period, which is generally ratably over the vesting term.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021no stock options were granted under the 2004 Option Plan or the 2020 Incentive Plan. The Company recognized $ i 87,000 and $ i 169,000 in stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, related to outstanding options previously granted under the 2004 Option Plan. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021,  i  i no /  restricted stock awards were granted under the 2020 Incentive Plan. The Company recognized $ i  i 54,000 /  in compensation expense associated with outstanding restricted stock awards for both six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. As of June 30, 2022, $ i 25,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding restricted stock awards was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remainder period of  i 0.24 years.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the options. The Company uses historical data to estimate the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of an award is based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The estimated volatility is based on historical volatility and management’s expectations of future volatility. The Company uses an estimated dividend payout of zero, as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and, at this time, does not expect to do so in the future. The Company accounts for option forfeitures as they occur. The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

Equity Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

 

In 2005, Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. (a subsidiary of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.) entered into a joint venture with a manufacturer in India, Maple Industries and associates, for the production of building products. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, a private company, Harmony Plastics Private Limited (“Harmony”), was created with ownership interests of  i 41.66% owned by Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. and  i 58.34% owned by Maple Industries and associates.

 

This joint venture positions Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. to respond to current and expected increased product demand for housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment and provides future capacity for sales of specialty roofing component products and custom products for industrial applications requiring high quality extrusion coated fabrics. In addition, the joint venture now supplies products for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

The capital from the initial funding and a bank loan, which loan is guaranteed exclusively by the individual shareholders of Maple Industries and associates and collateralized by the assets of Harmony, were utilized to purchase the original manufacturing facility in India. Harmony currently has four facilities in India (three owned and one rented), consisting of: (1) a  i 113,000 square foot building for manufacturing building products; (2) a  i 73,000 square foot building for manufacturing coated material and sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; (3) a  i 16,000 square foot facility for sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; and (4) a  i 93,000 square foot facility (rented) for manufacturing Building Supply segment products. All additions have been financed by Harmony with no guarantees from the Company.

 

In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company assesses whether or not related entities are variable interest entities (“VIEs”). For those related entities that qualify as VIEs, ASC 810 requires the Company to determine whether or not the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and, if so, to consolidate the VIE. The Company has determined that Harmony is not a VIE and is, therefore, considered to be an unconsolidated affiliate.

 

The Company records its investment in Harmony as “equity investment in unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company records its equity interest in Harmony’s results of operations as “equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company periodically reviews its investment in Harmony for impairment. Management has determined that no impairment was required as of June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company purchased $ i 5,676,000 and $ i 7,435,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company purchased $ i 11,859,000 and $ i 13,789,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company sold $ i 0 and $ i 451,000 of inventories, respectively, to Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company sold $ i 258,000 and $ i 821,000 of inventories, respectively, to Harmony.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $ i 50,000 and $ i 188,000, respectively, related to Harmony. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $ i 99,000 and $ i 510,000, respectively, related to Harmony.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s investment in Harmony was $ i 6,219,000, which consisted of its original $ i 1,450,000 investment and cumulative equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $ i 5,788,000, less $ i 942,000 in repayments of the advance and $ i 77,000 in dividends.

Activity of Business Segments

 

The Company operates through two business segments:

 

(1) Building Supply: consisting of a line of construction supply weatherization products. The construction supply weatherization products consist of housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment, as well as other woven material. The majority of the Company’s equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate (Harmony) is included in the total segment income for the Building Supply segment.

 

(2) Disposable Protective Apparel: consisting of a complete line of disposable protective garments, including shoecovers (including the Aqua Trak® and spunbond shoecovers), bouffant caps, coveralls, frocks, lab coats, gowns and hoods, as well as face masks and face shields for the pharmaceutical, cleanroom, industrial, medical and dental markets. A portion of the Company’s equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate (Harmony) is included in the total segment income for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

 

Segment data excludes charges allocated to the principal executive office and other unallocated corporate overhead expenses and income tax. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on net sales.

 

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described previously under Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (see Note 2). Segment data excludes charges allocated to the principal executive office and other corporate unallocated expenses and income taxes. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on net sales.

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such assets will be realized. The Company’s policy is to record any interest and penalties assessed by the Internal Revenue Service as a component of the provision for income taxes. The Company provides allowances for uncertain income tax positions when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination by the tax authority.

 

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in various state and foreign jurisdictions.

 

An employer generally does not claim a corporate income tax deduction (which would be in an amount equal to the amount of income recognized by the employee) upon the exercise of its employee's incentive stock options (“ISOs”) unless the employee does not meet the holding period requirements and sells early, making a disqualifying disposition, or if the options otherwise do not qualify as ISOs under applicable tax laws. With non-qualified stock options (“NQSOs”), on the other hand, the employer is typically eligible to claim a deduction upon its employee's exercise of the NQSOs.

Contingencies

 

On June 7, 2022, the Company filed a lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”) in Utah naming as defendants the vendors from which the Company ordered equipment for its facility in Utah (collectively the “Defendants”). The Lawsuit relates to certain equipment ordered from Defendants and paid for by the Company, which Defendants never delivered. In the Lawsuit the Company is seeking the following relief: compensatory damages in the amount $ i 490,000, representing the money the Company paid for the machines it never received, lost profits in the form of mask sales it could have made if Defendants had delivered the machines on the promised date, and other monetary and equitable relief. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has written off the $ i 490,000 balance of the deposit paid for the equipment, pending any recovery in the Lawsuit. As of the date hereof, no counterclaims have been asserted against the Company. The Company believes there would not be any meritorious claims against the Company in the Lawsuit. The Lawsuit is in its early stages and the final outcome, including the potential amount of any recovery for the Company’s claims, is uncertain. Any potential recovery represents a gain contingency in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, that has not been recorded as the matter was not resolved as of June 30, 2022. Any recovery will be recorded when received.

 

The Company is subject to certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The ultimate outcome of any pending or potential litigation against the Company cannot be predicted. Management accrues contingent liabilities only when management concludes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.

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

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which appear elsewhere in this report, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 11, 2022 (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

 

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions, including, without limitation, our expected orders, production levels and sales in 2022 and 2023, and other information that is not historical information. When used in this report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We may make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. All forward-looking statements, whether written or oral and whether made by us or on our behalf, are expressly qualified by this special note.

 

The following are some of the risks that could affect our financial performance or that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:

 

 

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including effects on the business and operations of those within our supply chain and on global economic conditions generally, which have had, and could continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, financial results and results of operations.

 

The loss of any large customer or a reduction in orders from any large customer could reduce our net sales and harm our operating results.

 

We rely on suppliers and contractors, and our business could be seriously harmed if these suppliers and contractors are not able to meet our requirements.

 

Risks associated with international manufacturing could have a significant effect on our business.

 

Our success depends in part on protection of our intellectual property, and our failure to protect our intellectual property could adversely affect our competitive advantage, our brand recognition and our business.

 

Our industry is highly competitive, which may negatively affect our ability to grow our customer base and generate sales.

 

The Company’s results are affected by competitive conditions and customer preferences.

 

The Company’s growth objectives are largely dependent on the timing and market acceptance of our new product offerings, including our ability to continually renew our pipeline of new products and to bring those products to market.

 

Global economic conditions could adversely affect the Company’s business and financial results.

 

 Our joint venture may present risks that are only present when third parties are involved.

 

Security breaches and other disruptions to the Company’s information technology infrastructure could interfere with the Company’s operations, compromise information belonging to the Company and our customers and suppliers and expose the Company to liability, which could adversely impact the Company’s business and reputation.

 

The Company’s future results may be affected by various legal and regulatory proceedings and legal compliance risks.

 

Our common stock price is volatile, which could result in substantial losses for individual shareholders.

 

The foregoing list of risks is not exclusive. For a more detailed discussion of the risk factors associated with our business, see the risks described in Part I, Item IA, “Risk Factors,” in the 2021 Form 10-K. These and many other factors could affect the Company’s future operating results and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by the Company or on its behalf.

OVERVIEW

 

Alpha Pro Tech is in the business of protecting people, products and environments. We accomplish this by developing, manufacturing and marketing a line of high-value, disposable protective apparel products for the cleanroom, industrial, pharmaceutical, medical and dental markets. We also manufacture a line of building supply construction weatherization products. Our products are sold under the “Alpha Pro Tech” brand name, as well as under private label.

 

Our products are grouped into two business segments: (i) the Building Supply segment, consisting of construction weatherization products, such as housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment as well as other woven material; and (ii) the Disposable Protective Apparel segment, consisting of disposable protective garments (including shoecovers, bouffant caps, coveralls, gowns, frocks and lab coats), face masks and face shields.

 

Our target markets include pharmaceutical manufacturing, bio-pharmaceutical manufacturing and medical device manufacturing, lab animal research, high technology electronics manufacturing (which includes the semi-conductor market), medical and dental distributors, and construction, building supply and roofing distributors.

 

Our products are used primarily in cleanrooms, industrial safety manufacturing environments, health care facilities, such as hospitals, laboratories and dental offices, and building and re-roofing sites. Our products are distributed principally in the United States through a network consisting of purchasing groups, national distributors, local distributors, independent sales representatives and our own sales and marketing force.

Impact of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)

 

After the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, we experienced a significant surge in customer demand for our proprietary N-95 Particulate Respirator face mask product and other personal protective equipment (“PPE”) products as a result of COVID-19. We experienced a dramatic increase in revenue from sales of PPE products during 2020 and to a lesser extent during 2021, especially with respect to face masks and disposable protective garments, including shoecovers, coveralls, gowns, lab coats and bouffant caps.

 

In an effort to meet the unprecedented demand, and to aid communities around the world in responding to the ongoing healthcare crisis, the Company ramped up production during the first quarter of 2020 of our PPE products, in particular our N-95 face mask, which is manufactured by the Company in the United States. We addressed the growing customer demand for PPE products by increasing and improving the human, mechanical, and supply chain components behind production, but even with these increases and improvements, customer demand for PPE products exceeded industry supply from time to time.

 

Since 2020, we have encountered a number of constraints within our supply chain due to government-mandated shutdowns, raw materials shortages and shipping delays. Although we continue to work to alleviate these supply chain issues by securing additional supply sources, in the event of subsequent shutdowns, shortages or delays, our production and sales could be further impacted. Further, we have experienced increases in the costs of raw materials, and if the prices of raw materials continue to rise more rapidly than our sales prices, our profits may be impacted negatively.

 

Global shortages in important components and logistics challenges have resulted in, and will continue to cause, inflationary cost pressure in the Company’s supply chain. To date, the inflationary cost pressure has been more pronounced in the Company’s logistics costs, but these supply chain challenges have had an impact on the Company’s results of operations and ability to deliver products and services to its customers. However, if shortages in important supply chain materials or logistics challenges continue, the Company could fail to meet product demand. Additionally, if inflationary pressures in logistics or component costs persist, we may not be able to quickly or easily adjust pricing, reduce costs, or implement countermeasures, all of which would adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

We are continuing to serve our customers while taking every precaution to provide a safe work environment for our employees, and we have enacted enhanced operating protocols to assure their safety and well-being. We believe that we may have to take further actions that we determine are in the best interests of our employees or as required by federal, state, or local authorities.

 

COVID-19 has resulted in a downturn in the global financial markets and a slowdown in the global economy. This economic environment may impact some of our customers’ ability to pay or lead them to request extended payment terms, and we have experienced cost increases from some of our suppliers.  Additionally, we expect that demand for our Building Supply segment products could be negatively impacted as the overall market for  housing starts has decreased and increased uncertainty in the housing market and the economy in general, although to date we have not experienced any material negative impact in our Building Supply segment.

 

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to unfold. Overall, the increase in sales of our PPE products resulting from the pandemic had a positive impact on our 2021 and, to a lesser extent, 2022 financial results. The extent of the pandemic’s effect on our future operational and financial performance will depend in large part on future developments, including the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic and new variants, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact, the impact on governmental programs and budgets, the development of treatments or vaccines, and the efficacy of mass vaccinations, and the resumption of widespread economic activity in certain sectors. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented evolving situation, we are unable to predict with any certainty the likely impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations.

Three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to three months ended June 30, 2021

 

Sales. Consolidated sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased to $17,373,000, from $17,806,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $433,000, or 2.4%. This decrease consisted of decreased sales in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $1,452,000, partially offset by increased sales in the Building Supply segment of $1,019,000.

 

Building Supply Segment

 

Building Supply segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $1,019,000, or 10.4%, to the highest quarter on record of $10,817,000, compared to $9,798,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Building Supply segment increase during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a 7.7% increase in sales of housewrap and a 116.4% increase in sales of other woven material, partially offset by a decrease in sales of synthetic roof underlayment of 7.7% compared to the same period of 2021.

 

The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately 40% for synthetic roof underlayment, 42% for housewrap and 18% for other woven material. This compared to approximately 48% for synthetic roof underlayment, 43% for housewrap and 9% for other woven material for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Our synthetic roof underlayment product line primarily includes REX SynFelt®, REX TECHNOply® and TECHNO SB®, and our housewrap product line primarily consists of REX Wrap®, REX Wrap® Plus and REX Wrap Fortis®.

 

Building Supply segment sales for the second quarter of 2022 resulted in the all-time highest quarter on record. In addition, we have experienced record quarters in each of the past seven quarters, as compared to each respective prior year comparative quarter. Also, we have experienced the four highest quarters on record over the past five quarters: the second and third quarters of 2021 and the first and second quarters of 2022.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Building Supply segment experienced growth over the same period last year, which was led by a quarterly record in sales of housewrap. Premium housewrap was up, as we enjoyed entry into more multi-family and light commercial markets. We also experienced additional growth with our entry level line of housewrap with additional market penetration on the retail side, as well as increased sales of our accessory items, which includes window and door flashing and seam tapes. One of our growth strategies is to pursue additional market share of the multi-family building market, through the education of architects and introducing new products, which are currently in development, to meet the needs of ever changing building code requirements and customers’ needs.

 

Our synthetic roof underlayment sales in the second quarter of 2022 were negatively affected due a decline of sales in our premium REX SynFelt® brand, which reflects an industry trend, and flat sales of our economy TECHNO SB® brand as there has been an overall increase in inventory levels at the retail level on economy underlayment products. The higher inventories as well as a general retraction in the building market are expected to continue into the third quarter but we do expect growth in the near future.

 

Other woven material sales increased in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 by a significant 116.4% due to increased sales to our major customer and sales to a new other woven material customer. We expect continued substantial growth in the remainder of 2022 with this product line.

 

The Company has committed to increasing production capacity in our Building Supply segment by investing approximately $4.0 million in new equipment, a part of which became operational in the latter part of the third quarter of 2021. This equipment, which is expected to increase our production capacity, has been further delayed as a result of supply chain issues, and is now expected in the latter part of the third quarter of 2022 and is expected to be operational in the following quarter.

 

Management is encouraged by the current demand for the Company’s Building Supply segment products and anticipates continued growth in the remainder of 2022. The Company has continued to enjoy increased sales, and being vertically integrated and having control of our manufacturing, unlike most of our competitors, aides in minimizing the effects of worldwide supply chain issues. The synthetic roofing market was strong in 2021 and into early 2022, although the Company has recently seen some retraction in new home starts and re-roofing expenditures, as well as excess inventory in the market. By adding dealers, distribution channels and products in the roofing sector, we remain optimistic with respect to achieving sales growth in the future. Assuming new home construction remains high, we expect our housewrap sales will continue to grow despite the aforementioned retraction, as our distribution channels continue to expand and we introduce new products for this market. However, there is uncertainty in the economy in relation to interest rates and a possible recession that could impact the Building Supply segment.

 

Disposable Protective Apparel Segment

 

Sales for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $1,452,000, or 18.1%, to $6,556,000, compared to $8,008,000 for the same period of 2021. This segment decrease was due to a 28.9% decrease in sales of disposable protective garments, and a 0.7% decrease in sales of face masks, partially offset by a 172.1% increase in face shields. Sales of disposable garments and face masks were affected due to reduced customer demand in the second quarter of 2022 compared to demand in the second quarter of 2021 associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Face shield demand was positively affected primarily by sales to one distributor.

 

The sales mix of the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately 74% for disposable protective garments, 14% for face masks and 12% for face shields. This sales mix is compared to approximately 85% for disposable protective garments, 11% for face masks and 4% for face shields for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

 

Sales for the disposable protective garments decreased in the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to record sales in the second quarter of 2021, resulting from strong orders received from our major international channel partner in 2020 in response to COVID-19. Although our sales were down during the second quarter of 2022, our disposable protective garment sales were significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels. We are continuing to work closely with our channel partners to uncover new end-customer sales opportunities.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

 

 


 

 

Sales of face mask sales in the second quarter of 2022 were basically flat compared to the same quarter of 2021. Sales of face masks continue to be somewhat aided by the Omicron variants of COVID-19 and are still higher than pre-pandemic levels but, are expected to be low in the coming months as the market is saturated with face masks.

 

The increase in face shield sales in the second quarter of 2022 was also due to demand associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily from one distributor. Face shield sales in the second quarter of 2022 were significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels but are expected to be lower in the near term.

 

Due to COVID-19 variants and other challenges related to efforts to reduce the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, sales of face masks and face shields are now expected to be at pre-pandemic levels or lower.  In particular, face mask sales are expected to continue to decrease due to the saturated market. 

 

Six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to six months ended June 30, 2021

 

Consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased to $35,034,000 from $40,967,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $5,933,000, or 14.5%. This decrease consisted of decreased sales in the Disposable Protective Apparel Segment of $8,849,000, partially offset by increased sales in the Building Supply segment of $2,916,000.

 

Building Supply Segment

 

Building Supply segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $2,916,000, or 16.1%, to $21,054,000, compared to $18,138,000 for the same period of 2021. The Building Supply segment increase was primarily due to an increase in sales of housewrap of 12.5%, an increase in sales of synthetic roof underlayment of 2.8%, and an increase in sales of other woven material of 116.4% compared to the same period of 2021.

 

Building Supply segment sales during the first six months of 2022 experienced continued significant growth due to strong demand for both our housewrap products, other non-woven products and to a lesser extent synthetic roof underlayment products. The housewrap family of products continued to grow with a 12.5% year to date increase over the prior year to date due to growth in new market share as well as high demand for new home construction. Other woven material sales increased year to date by a significant 116.4% due to increased sales to our major customer, as well as a new customer. Synthetic roof underlayment sales increased by 2.8% compared to the first six months of 2021, which was primarily due to robust sales of our economy TECHNO family of products that have increased 11.6% year to date, partially offset by an industry-wide decline in premium synthetic roof underlayment sales.

 

The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 44% for synthetic roof underlayment, 41% for housewrap and 15% for other woven material. This compared to 50% for synthetic roof underlayment, 42% for housewrap and 8% for other woven material for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

 

Disposable Protective Apparel Segment

 

Sales for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $8,849,000, or 38.8%, to $13,980,000, compared to $22,829,000 for the same period of 2021. This segment decrease was due to a 35.0% decrease in sales of disposable protective garments, a 51.2% decrease in sales of face masks, and a 27.7% decrease in sales of face shields, all primarily due to increased customer demand associated with the pandemic in 2021. Although sales of disposable protective garments, face masks and face shields are down year to date, they are above pre-pandemic levels.

 

The sales mix of the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 63% for disposable protective garments, 23% for masks and 14% for shields. This sales mix is compared to 59% for disposable protective garments, 29% for masks and 12% for shields for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased by $620,000, or 9.9%, to $5,612,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $6,232,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The gross profit margin was 32.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 35.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

 

Gross profit decreased by $3,357,000, or 21.8%, to $12,054,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $15,411,000 for the same period of 2021. The gross profit margin was 34.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 37.6% for the same period of 2021.

 

Management believes that gross profit margin likely will continue to be negatively affected by significant increases in ocean freight and other transportation costs. Additionally, our portfolio of products has been affected by much higher than normal raw material costs and increased labor costs. In the current environment, cost increases may rise more rapidly than our sales prices, which could continue to decrease gross profit. In order to mitigate cost increases the Company will likely be increasing prices during the latter part of the third quarter of 2022.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $134,000, or 3.2%, to $4,065,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $4,199,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 23.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, down from 23.6% for the same period of 2021, primarily as a result of lower expenses.

 

The change in expenses by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was as follows: Disposable Protective Apparel was down $92,000, or 6.8%; Building Supply was up $224,000, or 16.7%; and corporate unallocated expenses were down $266,000, or 17.8%. The decrease in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment expenses was primarily related to decreased employee compensation, partially offset by an increase in marketing and commission expenses. The increase in the Building Supply segment expenses was primarily related to increased employee compensation, marketing, travel insurance and general office expenses, partially offset by decreased commission expense. The decrease in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to lower employee compensation, accrued bonuses and lower stock option expenses.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $406,000, or 4.6%, to $8,371,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $8,777,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 23.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, up from 21.4% for the same period of 2021, primarily as a result of lower net sales.

 

The change in expenses by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was as follows: Disposable Protective Apparel was down $545,000, or 17.9%; Building Supply was up $587,000, or 21.8%; and corporate unallocated expenses were down $448,000, or 14.7%. The decrease in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment expenses was primarily related to decreased employee compensation, commission and general factory expenses, partially offset by increased rent and utilities. The increase in the Building Supply segment expenses was related to increased employee compensation, marketing, travel, insurance and general office expenses, partially offset by decreased commission expense. The decrease in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to decreased employee compensation, accrued bonuses, stock option expenses, and public company and general office expenses, partially offset by increased insurance expenses.

 

In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement, the Company’s current President and Chief Executive Officer is entitled to an annual bonus equal to 5% of the pre-tax profits of the Company, excluding bonus expense, up to a maximum of $1.0 million. A bonus amount of $46,000 was accrued for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $106,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Income from Operations. Income from operations decreased by $510,000, or 27.9%, to $1,320,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1,830,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decreased income from operations was primarily due to a decrease in gross profit of $620,000 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $24,000, partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of $134,000. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was 7.6%, compared to 10.3% for the same period of 2021.

 

Income from operations decreased by $2,989,000, or 48.0%, to $3,244,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $6,233,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decreased income from operations was primarily due to a decrease in gross profit of $3,357,000, and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $38,000, partially offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of $406,000. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 9.3%, compared to 15.2% for the same period of 2021.

 

Other Income. Other income decreased by $618,000, or 328.7%, to a loss of $430,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from other income of $188,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due to a loss on fixed assets of $490,000 and decrease in equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $138,000, partially offset by an increase in interest income of $10,000. The loss on fixed assets was due to equipment for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment that was not delivered and the Company has recently filed a lawsuit in this matter. See Part II, Item 1, “Legal Proceedings,” for more information on the lawsuit.

 

Other income decreased by $891,000 to a loss of $380,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from other income of $511,000 for the same period of 2021. The decrease was primarily due a loss on fixed assets of $490,000 as discussed above, and a decrease in equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $411,000, partially offset by an increase in interest income of $10,000.

 

Income before Provision for Income Taxes. Income before provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $890,000, compared to income before provision for income taxes of $2,081,000 for the same period of 2021, representing a decrease of $1,128,000, or 55.9%. This decrease in income before provision for income taxes was due to a decrease in income from operations of $510,000 and a decrease in other income of $618,000.

 

Income before provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2,864,000, compared to income before provision for income taxes of $6,744,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $3,880,000, or 57.5%. This decrease in income before provision for income taxes was due to a decrease in income from operations of $2,989,000 and a decrease in other income of $891,000.

 

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $197,000, compared to $347,000 for the same period of 2021. The estimated effective tax rate was 22.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 17.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The Company does not record a tax provision on equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate, which reduces the effective tax rate.

 

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $649,000, compared to $1,354,000 for the same period of 2021. The estimated effective tax rate was 22.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 20.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company does not record a tax provision on equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate, which reduces the effective tax rate.

 

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $693,000, compared to net income of $1,671,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $978,000, or 58.5%. The decrease in net income was largely associated with the surge in product demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The net income decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021 was due to a decrease in income from operations of $510,000 and a decrease in other income of $618,000, for a decrease in income before provision for income taxes of $1,128,000, partially offset by a decrease in provision for income taxes of $150,000. The loss on assets of $490,000, mentioned above, significantly decreased our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Net income as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was 4.0%, and net income as a percentage of net sales for the same period of 2021 was 9.4%. Basic earnings per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 were $0.05 and $0.13, respectively. Diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0.05 and $0.12, respectively.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2,215,000, compared to net income of $5,390,000 for the same period of 2021, representing a decrease of $3,175,000, or 58.9%. The net income decrease comparing the 2022 and 2021 periods was due to a decrease in income from operations of $2,989,000 and a decrease in other income of $891,000, for a decrease in income before provision for income taxes of $3,880,000, partially offset by a decrease in provision for income taxes of $705,000. As mentioned above, the loss on assets has negatively impacted the net income for the first half of 2022. Net income as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 6.3%, and net income as a percentage of net sales for the same period of 2021 was 13.2%. Basic earnings per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0.17 and $0.41, respectively. Diluted earnings per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $0.17 and $0.40, respectively.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) of $15,342,000 and working capital of $51,064,000. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s current ratio (current assets/current liabilities) was 21:1, compared to a current ratio of 20:1 as of December 31, 2021. Cash decreased by 5.9%, or $965,000, to $15,342,000 as of June 30, 2022, compared to $16,307,000 as of December 31, 2021, and working capital increased by $733,000 from $50,331,000 as of December 31, 2021. The decrease in cash from December 31, 2021 was due to cash used in investing activities of $222,000 and cash used in financing activities of $1,686,000, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities of $ 943,000.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities of $943,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022  was due to net income of $2,215,000, impacted primarily by the following: stock-based compensation expense of $87,000, depreciation and amortization expense of $439,000, equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $99,000, operating lease expense net of accretion of $457,000, an increase in accounts receivable of $3,269,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $175,000, a decrease in inventory of $1,812,000, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $67,000, and a decrease in lease liabilities of $457,000, all compared to December 31, 2021.

 

Accounts receivable increased by $3,269,000, or 68.3%, to $8,049,000 as of June 30, 2022, from $4,780,000 as of December 31, 2021. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily related to increased sales as compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. The number of days that sales remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022, calculated by using an average of accounts receivable outstanding and annual revenue, was 44 days, compared to 24 days as of December 31, 2021.

 

Inventory decreased by $1,812,000, or 7.3%, to $23,157,000 as of June 30, 2022, from $24,969,000 as of December 31, 2021. The decrease was due to a decrease in inventory for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $1,651,000, or 10.2%, to $14,584,000 and a decrease in inventory for the Building Supply segment of $161,000, or 1.8%, to $8,573,000.

 

Prepaid expenses increased by $175,000, or 2.5%, to $7,118,000 as of June 30, 2022, from $6,943,000 as of December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to increased prepayments for insurance and prepaid inventory.

 

Right-of-use assets as of June 30, 2022 decreased by $457,000 to $2,191,000 from $2,648,000 as of December 31, 2021 as a result of amortization of the balance.

 

Lease liabilities as of June 30, 2022 decreased by $457,000 to $2,243,000 from $2,700,000 as of December 31, 2021. The recording of the lease liabilities was the result of adopting ASC 842, Leases. The decrease in the lease liabilities was the result of lease payments made during the year.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2022 decreased by $67,000, or 3.8%, to $1,720,000, from $1,778,000 as of December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in accrued bonuses, partially offset by an increase in trade accounts payable.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $222,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $1,468,000 for the same period of 2021. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 consisted of the purchase of property and equipment of $222,000. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of the purchase of property and equipment of $1,468,000.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $1,686,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $3,317,000 for the same period of 2021. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 resulted from the payment of $1,716,000 for the repurchase of common stock, partially offset by the proceeds of $30,000 from the exercise of stock options. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 resulted from the payment of $3,708,000 for the repurchase of common stock partially offset by the proceeds of $391,000 from the exercise of stock options.

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had $2,362,000 available for additional stock purchases under our stock repurchase program. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we repurchased 225,500 shares of common stock at a cost of $960,000. As of June 30, 2022, we had repurchased a total of 18,945,417 shares of common stock at a cost of approximately $44,158,000 through our repurchase program. We retire all stock upon repurchase. Future repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities.

 

We have committed to increasing production capacity in our Building Supply segment by investing approximately $4.0 million in new equipment, a part of which became operational in the latter part of the third quarter of 2021. As a result of delays in the supply chain the most expensive piece of equipment, for which an approximately $1,000,000 balance remains outstanding, has been delayed. This amount has not been prepaid and will be paid in full upon delivery of equipment.  The equipment was originally anticipated to arrive in the fourth quarter of 2021, and then in the second quarter of 2022, and is now expected in the latter part of the third quarter of 2022 and is expected to be operational in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company expects to fund the remaining balance from cash flow from operations.

 

We believe that our current cash balance and expected cash flow from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our projected working capital and planned capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
