CENTRAL UNION TRUST COMPANY OF NEW YORK, Trustee Isadore Saks, Esq., President of the Company, has briefly summarised his letter of March 11, 1922, as fellows Business: Saks & Company, a New Yerk corporation, has for twenty years conducted a constantly growing and uniformly successful apparel and specialty business located at 34th Street and Broad way, New Yerk City. The business is characterized by rapid' turnover of stock, the average rate of turnover being less than ninety days. The risk of serious shrinkages of inventory is thus elim-' mated, as proved by the profits during the last two years of falling prices. The store has always handled standamed high grade goods and the bulk of the business comes net from transient visitors te the store but from regular customers of years' standing te whom the new location will be much mere convenient. It is because of this that it has been deemed wise te move the business te Fifth Avenue, where this type of patronage is new concentrated. Building, and Leaseheld: The Company has secured upon unusually favorable terms a lease for a total period including renewals of 105 years, covering 36,700 square feet of ground en the East piue ex rum Avenue Detween win ana sutti streets, including both of these corners, en which it intends te erect a modern store building estimated te cost with equipment approximately $4,250,000 and with apprelirnately double the fleer space of its present store. Cruikshank Company in an appraisal made March 1, 1922. state as follews: "In our emniein a fair and riainnarili vain r( th leasehold,' exclusive of the building, is $1,250,000 Security: Thes bends in addition te bcujg the direct obligations of the Company, are specifically secured by a closed mortgage en the leasehold of the premises within,-descnbed and of the new store building te be erected thereon. Concurrently with the issue of the bends a fund of $3,500,000 is te be deposited in trust for the purposes of the construction as fully explained in the President's . letter. The balance sheet of the Company as of January 31, 1922, after giving effect te the present financ ing shows current assets of $8,363,863 of which ever $5,300,000 are in cash or in United States Government securities. Current liabilities are $1,100,544. Out of these funds, the segregated deposit te insure the construction of the building will be set aside in trust. The Company has no bank leans and has net for seven years been a borrower, except during the war, for the purchase of Liberty Bends. The Company agrees net te pay arjy cash dividends out of the present surplus of the Company nor out of profits made prier te July 1, 1924, nor any cash dividends that will reduce the net quick assets below the face amount of the bends of this issue from time te time outstanding. The result will be that during the period of construction of the new building the entire ne.t earnings of the Company will be added te its present surplus. Earnings: Net sales of the Company have grown from $5,192,000 in 1912 te $14,922,000 in 1921. Fer the last five years net earnings (before income or profit taxes) available for interest have aver aged $995,322 and in 1921 were $1,082,604, in both cases mere than four times the $245,000 max imum interest charges en this issue as fellows : 1917 .M.i.wM.,.1. $645,544 1919 ....'. $1,615,341 1918 . 709,585 1920 923,538 1921 '. $1,082,604 KOTE Eainins for 1920 re afttr deduction cf SMO.OOO paid in connection with tLe acquintien et the Hfth Avenue Leue.
