The increase in the Company’s second fiscal quarter net income is primarily attributable to higher attendance based net sales, partially offset by higher cost of sales, higher compensation, advertising, depreciation, insurance and general operating expenses, as well as higher interest and income tax expenses.

Total net sales for the six months ended April 4, 2021 were $4,703,382, an increase of $2,964,940, compared to $1,738,442 for the six months ended March 29, 2020.

The Company reported net income of $765,983, or $0.01 per basic share and fully diluted share, for the six months ended April 4, 2021, compared to a net loss of $279,303, or $(0.00) per basic share and fully diluted share, for the six months ended March 29, 2020, resulting in a net increase of $1,045,286. The increase in the Company’s net income for the first six months of its 2021 fiscal year is primarily attributable to higher attendance based net sales, higher animal sales and lower professional fees, partially offset by higher cost of sales, higher compensation, advertising, depreciation, insurance and general operating expenses, as well as higher interest and income tax expenses.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

The Company had working capital of $3,972,272 as of April 4, 2021, compared to $3,856,455 as of September 27, 2020 and $2,912,668 as of March 29, 2020. The Company’s debt to equity ratio was 0.54 to 1.0 as of April 4, 2021, compared to 0.60 to 1.0 as of September 27, 2020 and 0.14 to 1.0 as March 29, 2020. Compared to March 29, 2020, the increase in the Company’s debt to equity ratio is principally a result of debt incurred to finance the Texas Park acquisition, which was completed on April 27, 2020.

“First, I want to commend the teams at our Texas and Missouri Parks for their extraordinary efforts during and after the significant winter storms in February this year,” commented Dale Van Voorhis, Chairman and CEO. “These teams endured many challenges and long days, addressing the initial impacts and aftermath of these storms. They did a tremendous job and were able to quickly reopen during the last few days of February, after being closed for over two weeks. In fact, both of these Parks generated a weekly record for attendance and revenues in mid-March.”

“As our results for the six months ended April 4, 2021 indicate, the attendance and sales momentum each of our Parks has experienced since reopening in early May 2020 has continued through the first half of our 2021 fiscal year,” noted Mr. Van Voorhis. “April 2021 was another strong month, again exceeding our expectations. Thanks to the ongoing incredible efforts of our team members, our Georgia Park also achieved a record week for attendance and revenues in April. The final five months of our 2021 fiscal year present a new challenge, as we strive to sustain the attendance levels we experienced from May through September 2020. Our teams continue to work hard to provide our guests with an outstanding wild animal safari experience. As always, we encourage our current and future investors to come out and have a memorable experience at any one of our Parks.”
