The Board remained <br /> sufficiently"liquid,"however,with a current ratio of 4.25 (current assets/current liabilities)and <br /> an "acid-test"ratio (cash/current liabilities) of 2.01. <br /> Inventory volume, an indicator of the Board's financial health, was at $3,969,926, up <br /> $631,771 (18.93%). While higher than the previous year, the increase included the addition of <br /> an additional store, Southern Village, accounting for $269,315 of the increase. Inventory of <br /> bags used to package store sales ($86,808) was up $38,151 (78.41%). (Bags are stocked in the <br /> warehouse and allocated to stores as needed.)Bag usage fell off during the pandemic period but <br /> increased significantly in recent months. <br /> Accounts payable owed by the Board ($1,062,209) decreased by -$3,435 (-0132%). <br /> Long term liabilities ($4,054,629) increased by 9.79%, due primarily to the First Horizon <br /> financing of the new Mebane store. <br /> Year to date income($850,491) decreased -$308,450 (-26.61%) from last year. <br /> 2. Comparative Revenue, Expenses and Changes in Net Position 2023 to 2022 <br /> (Attachment"B"): <br /> Retail store sales for the month ($1,776,906) declined by -$47,295 (-2.59%) while <br /> LBD/commercial sales ($407,317) increased $143,408 (54.34%). (A decline in store sales <br /> during the post-holiday period is not usual, often driven by New Year's resolutions). By <br /> comparison,during the pandemic period of the previous year,retail store sales were at elevated <br /> levels while LBD sales were suppressed. <br /> Gross profit of$556,608 was up slightly ($20,885, 3.90%). <br /> Total payroll-related expenses ($328,039)was up $80,007, (32.26%), due primarily to j <br /> calendarization and a recent increase in employee wages. Increases in employee health <br /> insurance (+$8,364) was the result of the addition of new employees to the policy and 2023 <br /> rate increases. <br /> Page 1 of 6 pages <br />
