In order to answer these questions, you should be utilizing some or all of the following tools: analyze income statements & cash flow, utilize financial ratios to understand the business situation, understand the relationship between sustainable growth rate & profitability, address the desire to expand with capital requirements & profitability. Jones Electrical Distribution After several years of rapid growth, in the spring of 2007 Jones Electrical Distribution anticipated a further substantial increase in nales. Despite good profits, the company had experienced a shortage of cash and had found it necessary to increase its borrowing fron Metropolitan Bank-a local on branch bank-to S250,000 in 2006, The maximum loan that Metropolitan would make to any one borrower was $250.000, and Jones had been able to stay within the limit only by relving very heavily on trade credit from the manufacturers from whom Jones purchaed the electrical products it sold to its customens. Nelson Jones, sole owner and president of the company, was therefore looking elsewhere for a new banking relationship that would allow him to negotiate a larger loan. Jim Lyons, a homebuilder who was a friend of Jones, introduced Jones to Rachel Montrone, Lyons's relationship officer at the local branch of Southern Bank & Trust-a large, regional bank Southem had a 7-year relationship with Lyos, including a current loan balance of over S3 milion Jones and Montrose tentatively dincussed the possibility that Southem might extend a line of credit to Jans up to a maximum amount of $350,000. Jones thought that a loan of thin size would more than meet his needs for at least the next year, and he was eager for the flexibility that a line of credit of this size would provide. Alter discunsion, Montrose had arranged for the eredit department of Southern Bank & Trust to investigate Nelson Jones and his company Backgre and of Jones Electrical Distribution Jones Electrical Distribution was founded in 1990 as a partnership between Nebson Jonos and his college roominate, Dave Verden. In 2003, Jones arnd Verden had a disagreement on how aggressivety they should grow the business, and Jones ultimately bought Verden out for $250,000 They agrend that Jones would pay Verden the $250,000 in installments of S2.000 per month plus interest of per year chegg file eferences Mailings Review View Grammarly Tell me Ka v 。而。前。 正 AaBbCeDdE AaBbCeDdE AaBbCcD AaBbCcDdE Normal No Spacing Heading 1 Heading 3 The business sold electrical components and tools to general contractors and electricians. The products, which included items such as controllers, breakers, signal devices and fuses, were purchased from nearly 100 different suppliers. Jones's customers used the products in the construction and repair of commercial and residential buildings, To a degree, Jones's sales followed the seasonality of its customens' businesses which had their highest activity during the spring and summer when weather was most conducive for construction work. The market in which Jones competed was large, fragmented, and highly competitive. Jones faced significant competition from national distributors, home centers, and other small supply houses. In spite of the competition, Jones had built up sales volume by successfully competing on price and employing an aggressive direct sales force who often visited customers at their job sites. In order to compete on price, Jones maintained tight control over operating expenses, including paying his salesforce primarily on commission and keeping overhead to a minimum. In addition, as part of his expense management effort, Jones had historically paid his suppliers within 10 days of the invoice date in order to take full advantage of the 2% discounts they offered for quick payments. Jones had also proved adept at demand forecasting and inventory management, allowing him to satisfy his customers' demand with a modest amount of inventory relative to his larger competitors. Jones's focus and dedication to his business allowed him to build it into a profitable operation. Jones Electrical Distribution had grown to $2.24 million in sales and $30,000 of net income in 2006. Operating statements for years 2004-2006 and for the three months ending March 31, 2007, are given in Exhibit 1. Financing the Business Through Southern Bank & Trust To solve his financing need, Jones wanted to develop a relationship with a larger bank that would not run into issues with maximum loans to a single borrower as he had experienced with Metropolitan Bank. He wanted to build a relationship with a bank that could grow with him including to more locations if he decided to add additional sites in the future. As part of its customary due diligence of Jones Electrical Distribution, the Southem Bank & Trust's credit department asked Jones's friend Jim Lyons for a reference on Jones.

As part of its customary due diligence of Jones Electrical Distribution, the Southem Bank & Trust's credit department asked Jones's friend Jim Lyons for a reference on Jones. Lyons's reference included the following comments: "Nelson is a businessman of the highest integrity ansharp acumen who is a very hands-on manager of his operation. He has excellent knowledgeruf the products he sells and provides customers with excellent service. He also lives a modest lifestyle." The bank also toured Jones Electrical Distribution's warehouse and office and interviewed the area sales managers for three of the manufacturers from whom Jones bought the products he sold. The managers were unanimous in their favorable opinion of Jones. One of them said: "Nelson has been one of our best performing wholesalers. He really knows how to build relationships and close a sale. He has also been great with his expense management. The guy does not spend a dime unless he absolutely has to. We look forward to building a bigger relationship with him in the future." In addition to the electrical distribution business, which was Jones's only source of income, Jones held jointly with his wife an equity in their home. The house had cost $199,000 to build in 1999 and was mortgaged for $117,000. He also held a $250,000 life insurance policy, payable to his wife. Otherwise, they had no sizeable personal investments. Southern Bank & Trust gave particular attention to the debt position and current ratio of the business. It noted the ready market for the company's products at all times and the fact that sales prospects were favorable. The bank's investigator reported: "Sales are expected to reach $2.7 million by the end of 2007." On the other hand, it was recognized that a general economic downtum might slow down the rate of increase in sales. Projections beyond 2007 were difficult to make, but the pronpects appeared good for continued growih in the volume of Jores Electrical Distribution's business over the foreseeable future The bank alno noted the rapid increase in Jones Electrical's accounts payable and line of credit in Lihe necnt past Jone Electrical'a.main.suoliers had termms of 30 davs net and.ovided .2% OFocu Mailings Review View Grammarly Tell me ces 讯、而、。 AaBbCeDdE AalbCeDdE AaBbCcD AalbCcDdE A Normal No Spacing Heading 1 Haading 2 prospects appeared good for continued growth in the volume of Jones Electrical Distribution's buniness over the foreseeable future. The bank also noted the rapid increase in Jones Electrical's accounts payable and line of credit in the recent past Jones Electrical's main suppliers had terms of 30 days net and provided a 2% discount for payments made within 10 day of invoice date. These terms notwithstanding, the manufacturen did not object if payments laged somewhat behind thr due date. During the past six months, Jones had taken very few purchase discounts because of the shortage of funds arising from the additional investments in working capital associated with the company's increased sales volume. Balance sheets at December 31, 2004-2006, and March 31, 2007, are presented in Exhibit 2. The tentative discussions between Rachel Montrose and Nelson Jones had been about a revevjng. ecured line of credit not to exceed $350,000. The specific details of the loan had not been wked out. but Montrose had explained the agreement would involve the standard covenants applying to such a loan. She cited as illustrative provisions the requirement that restrictions on additional borrowing would be imposed, that additional investments in fixed assets could be made only with prior approval of the bank, and that limitations would be placed on withdrawals of funds from the business by Jones. She also indicated that while the line of credit would have a limit of 5350,000, Jones's utilization of the line at any point in time would be limited to an amount equal to 75% of Accounts Receivable and S of Inventory percentage points above the prime rate (the rate paid by the bank's most creditvworthy customers). Montrose indicated that the initial rate to be paid would be about 7.5% under conditions in effect in early 2007. Jones also understood that he would be required to sever his relationship with Metropolitan Bank if he entered into a loan agreement with Southern Bank & Trust. Interest would be set on a floating-rate basis at 15% The Future of Jones Electrical Distribution As he contemplated his next meeting with Montrose, Jos's thoughts were dominated by the immediate need for more bank credit. However, he knww that the increasingly tense relationships with his suppliers and the seemingty unending need for more financing meant that he needed to be more deliberate about his future growth plans. To get started. he grabbed a blank piece of paper from his oftice printer and sketched out the options before him. He started with the pace of sales growth followed by his taking the 2% discoantsor not-which led into the financing implications of each altermative.
