NOTE 6RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance for the recognition of revenueAccounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from contractsContracts with customers, whichCustomers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective.effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued an update to defer the effective date of this update by one year. The updated standard becomes effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, but allows the Company to adopt the standard one year earlier if it so chooses. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, "Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory," ("ASU 2015-11"). An entity using an inventory method other than last-in, first out ("LIFO") or the retail inventory method should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The new standardguidance clarifies that net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This update is effective for the Company’s fiscal year 2018, andas of January 1, 2017, with early adoption is not permitted. The Company is evaluatingcurrently assessing the effect theimpact that adopting this new guidanceaccounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and relatedfootnote disclosures. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update which requires management to assess whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the consolidated financial statements are issued. If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosures are required. This update will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year 2015. The adoption of the new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

There have been no other newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have, or are expected to have, a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

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

OVERVIEW

Chase General Corporation (Chase) is a holding company for its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dye Candy Company. This subsidiary is the main operating company that is engaged in the manufacture of confectionery products which are sold primarily to wholesale houses, grocery accounts, vendors, and repackers. The subsidiary (Company) operates two divisions, Chase Candy division and Seasonal Candy division, which share a common labor force and utilize the same basic equipment and raw materials. Therefore, segment reporting for the two divisions is not maintained by Management.

The Company’s business, like that of many other confectionary product manufacturers, is seasonal. Historically, the Company has realized more of its revenue and earnings in the fiscal second quarter, which includes the majority of the holiday shopping season, than in any other fiscal quarter.

NET SALES
Net sales decreased $11,276 or 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $450,836 compared to $462,112 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Gross sales for Chase Candy decreased $10,516 to $449,833 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $460,349 for 2014. Gross sales for Seasonal Candy decreased $7,370 to $10,706 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $18,076 for 2014.
The 2% decrease in gross sales of Chase Candy of $10,516 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 over the same period ended March 31, 2014, is primarily due to the net effect of the following: 1) decreased sales of the L276 Cherry Mash Distributor Pack division by approximately $21,000 versus the same period a year ago, primarily due to one customer decreasing orders; 2) decreased sales of the Cherry Mash Merchandiser division by approximately $15,000 versus the same period a year ago, primarily due to three customers decreasing orders; and offset by 3) increased sales of the L278/L212 Mini Mash division by approximately $26,000 versus the third quarter a year ago due to one customer increasing orders.
The 41% decrease in gross sales of Seasonal Candy of $7,370 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 over the same period ended March 31, 2014, is primarily due to the net effect of the following: 1) decreased sales in the clamshell seasonal division by approximately $8,000 versus third quarter a year ago primarily due to decreased orders from two customers; and offset set by 2) various other fluctuations netting an increase of approximately $1,000.
Net sales decreased $41,900 or 2% for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 to $2,734,017 compared to $2,775,917 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014. Gross sales for Chase Candy decreased $37,102 to $1,488,641 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $1,525,743 for 2014. Gross sales for Seasonal Candy decreased $5,550 to $1,275,733 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $1,281,283 for 2014.

NET SALES (CONTINUED)
The 2% decrease in gross sales of Chase Candy of $37,102 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 over the same period ended March 31, 2014, is primarily due to the net effect of the following: 1) decreased sales of the L276 Cherry Mash Distributor Pack division by approximately $97,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to one customer decreasing orders; 2) decreased sales of the L279/L299 Bulk Mini Mash division by approximately $14,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to two customers decreasing orders; 3) various other fluctuations netting to a decrease of approximately $3,000; 4) decreased sales of the L260 Changemaker Jar division by approximately $1,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to one customer decreasing orders; offset by 5) increased sales of the L278/L212 Mini Mash division by approximately $77,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to two customers increasing orders; and 6) increased sales of the Cherry Mash Merchandiser division by approximately $1,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to the net impact of two customers increasing orders and two customers decreasing orders.
The slight decrease in gross sales of Seasonal Candy of $5,550 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 over the same period ended March 31, 2014, is primarily due to the net effect of the following: 1) decreased sales in the bulk seasonal division by approximately $22,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to decreased orders from three customers; 2) decreased sales in the clamshell seasonal division by approximately $1,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to decreased orders from one customer; offset by 3) increased sales in the generic seasonal product division by approximately $17,000 due to increased orders from one customer along with the introduction of new packaging.
COST OF SALES
The cost of sales decreased $16,200 to $356,567 or 79% of related revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $372,767 or 81% of related revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
The 4% decrease in cost of sales of $16,200 is primarily due to the 2% decrease in net sales and a 3% decrease in the raw material costs of peanuts compared to the same period ended March 31, 2014.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONAND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(CONTINUED)
COST OF SALES(CONTINUED)
The cost of sales decreased $51,674 to $1,917,694 or 70% of related revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $1,969,368 or 71% of related revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
The 3% decrease in cost of sales of $51,674 is primarily due to the 2% decrease in net sales net of a 5% increase in the raw material costs of peanuts compared to the same period ended March 31, 2014.
Due to volatility in the regions where these raw materials are grown, management anticipates the prices of these raw materials to continue to fluctuate primarily based on supply and demand.
SELLING EXPENSES
Selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 increased $4,616 to $74,670, which is 17% of sales, compared to $70,054 or 15% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
The increase of $4,616 in selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 is primarily due to higher premium promotions expense and higher depreciation expense. Premium promotions, which are paid to customers for various marketing reasons, increased $2,314 to $3,694 for this period from $1,380 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Depreciation expense increased $2,069 to $10,444 for this period from $8,375 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to purchases of property and equipment of $28,767 during the year ended June 30, 2014 combined with the purchases of property and equipment of $54,001 during the nine months ended March 31, 2015.
Selling expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 increased $10,983 to $339,074, which is 12% of sales, compared to $328,091 or 12% of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
The increase of $10,983 in selling expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 is primarily due to higher depreciation expense and higher sales salaries expense. Depreciation expense increased $6,864 to $31,990 for this period from $25,126 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to purchases of property and equipment of $28,767 during the year ended June 30, 2014 combined with the purchases of property and equipment of $54,001 during the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Sales salaries expense increased $4,979 to $83,918 for this period from $78,939 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to salary rate adjustments.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $24,926 to $83,890 and decreased to 19% of sales, compared to $108,816 or 24% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease of $24,926 in general and administrative expense is primarily because of lower professional fees expense and lower insurance expense offset by various other fluctuations netting to an increase of approximately $2,000. Professional fees expense decreased $13,380 to $11,894 for this period from $25,274 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to decreased legal costs.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 decreased $46,593 to $295,724 or 11% of sales, compared to $342,317 or 12% of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease of $46,593 in general and administrative expense is primarily because of lower professional fees expense, lower insurance expense offset by various other fluctuations netting to an increase of approximately $5,000. Professional fees expense decreased $31,816 to $79,124 for this period from $110,940 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to decreased legal costs. Insurance expense decreased $20,074 to $98,104 for this period from $118,178 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to a few employees declining health insurance coverage.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
Other income and (expense) increased by $339 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 to $501, compared to $162 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to a decrease of $315 in interest expense.
Other income and (expense) increased by $11,632 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 to $10,989, compared to $(643) for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to a decrease of $1,500 in interest expense, a freight claim of approximately $4,000 and a refund of approximately $7,000 from a customer related to an underpayment written off during the year ending June 30, 2014.

Management has made commitments of approximately $54,000 to purchase equipment to be used in the manufacturing process before the end of fiscal 2015. The $54,001 of cash used in investing activities is the purchase of equipment used during the manufacturing process and two vehicles. The $218,056 of cash provided by operating activities is fully detailed in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows on page seven. The $21,317 of cash used in financing activities is the principal payments on equipment and vehicle loans. At March 31, 2015, the Company had $350,000 remaining on the line-of-credit, which could be utilized to help fund any working capital requirements.
Management believes that the projected cash flow from operations, combined with its existing cash balances, will be sufficient to meet its funding requirements for the foreseeable future.
Management believes that inflation will have only a minimal effect on future operations since such effects will be offset by sales price increases, which are not expected to have a significant effect upon demand.

  2015  2014 
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities $315,198  $342,808

The $21,622 of cash used in investing activities is the purchase of equipment used during the manufacturing process and an automobile. The $6,666 of cash used in financing activities is the principal payments on equipment and vehicle loans. At December 31, 2015, the Company had $350,000 remaining on the line-of-credit, which could be utilized to help fund any working capital requirements.

Management believes that inflation will have only a minimal effect on future operations since such effects will be offset by sales price increases, which are not expected to have a significant effect upon demand.
