Fleisher, President of the Company: The Notaseme Hosiery Co. has been in successful operation since its incorpo ration in 1909, and its business has shown remarkably steady increase. Ownership and management remain unchanged. Product is widely known, standard trade-marked seamles's hosiery that is dis tributed by about eight thousand dealers. Output in 1918 was 561,699 dozen pairs, and sales were $2,133,974, while sales for 1919, based on business delivered or booked, will be approximately $2,500,000. Demand for Company's product is very largely in excess of present production, and proceeds of the sale of this First Preferred Stock will be used to build a new 'manufacturing plant in Philadelphia, to cost approximately $450,000, and for additional working capital. The new plant to be completed in April, 1920, will result in great economies of operation and will increase the Company's capacity by 50. Average net earnings for the past three years, after depreciation and Federal Taxes, were equivalent to over twice dividend requirements on the First Preferred Stock now to be issued. It is estimated that earnings applicable to dividends on First Preferred Stock will be increased over $150,000 per annum through decrease in Federal Taxes, dut'to this financing and through economies of operation. Earnings will be further greatly added to by increased production. Upon completion of present financing net assets will approximate 200 and net quick assets 100 of First Preferred Stock outstanding. A semiannual sinking fund, beginning in 1921, of 10 of net earnings (after de preciation, but before Federal Taxes), with a minimum of $20,000 per annum, is pro vided for the retirement of First Preferred Stock. Other covenants under which First Preferred Stock is issued are protective to the holders. The Company and its business have been favorably reported upon by Messrs. Day and Zim mermann. Engineers, of Philadelphia. The covenants and legalities relating to the issue of First Preferred Stock have been approved by Messrs. Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, of Philadelphia,' for the bankers, and by Messrs. Stern & Wolf, of Philadelphia, for the Company. Accounts of the Company have been audited and certified to by Messrs. Lybrand, Ross Bros. & Montgomery. PRICE 99 AND ACCRUED DIVIDEND, YIELDING OVER 8 ELKINS, MORRIS & CO. GRAHAM, PARSONS & CO.
