VAP’s dough needs more rise – has new plan To offer stock purchase to buy oven to start baking frozen product

By Yvonne Miller Value Added Product’s (VAP) CEO Dirk Merle told of a plan he has that will hopefully act as a catalyst to make the Alva dough company rise to overcome the rollercoaster year it experienced in 2011.

About 60 people attended VAP’s 12th Annual Stockholders Meeting Saturday.

In following tradition, the gathering was in the Merchant’s Building at the Woods County Fairgrounds. VAP’s staff prepared a beautiful spread of croissants, pastries, baguettes, bread loaves, cinnamon rolls, breakfast and other varieties of pizza on

their signature pre-proofed, folded edge crust that has the perfect crunch on the outside and soft, tender bread inside.

“We make a good product – it’s just enough people don’t know who we are,” Merle told investors. “There’s not enough volume of customers – not enough width in our business.”

The CEO said that in this “stagnant economy,” when companies like Hostess face bankruptcy, his plan is to go full throttle seeking new business. He plans to hire two full-time employees to focus all their time on getting the business of retail

delis and large grocery chains.

“There’s a big push for large grocery chains to have their own brand versus national brands. That gives us a big opportunity to sell to those grocery chains,” Merle said.

Introduce – Expand – Defend VAP’s new plan is to introduce – expand – defend.

Merle said they are taking a consulting sales approach (i.e. not only tell potential customers what VAP makes, but See VAP Page 27

QR codes coming to the newspaper

By Lynn L. Martin For decades, business and industry have benefited from bar codes to control inventory and help with automatic pricing at checkout cash registers.

I was surprised this past summer when I purchased tickets to a professional baseball game and a QR Code was sent to my cell phone which would serve as my ticket. The guy at the entrance gate used a hand scanner to read the code on the display of my cell phone . . . and bingo, we were in.

The following is from Wikipedia: “A QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response code) is a type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code) first designed for the automotive industry.

More recently, the system has become popular outside of the industry due to its fast readability and comparatively large storage capacity. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background.

The information encoded can be made up of four standardized kinds (modes) of data (numeric, alphanumeric, byte/ binary, Kanji), or by supported extensions of virtually any kind of data.

Created by Toyota subsidiary Denso Wave in 1994 to track vehicles during the manufacturing process, the QR code is one of the most popular types of two-dimensional bar-codes. It was designed to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed.

The technology has seen frequent use in the United States; QR usage is growing fastest in Canada and Hong Kong.”

Almost any modern smart cellphone has a camera. If you have downloaded a free QR reader for your camera, then you can point your cellphone camera at any QR code and quickly read the contents.

So far, we’ve experimented with QR codes on the Internet Page and the Facebook page in the Alva ReviewCourier. Soon we will have a medical directory with each medical provider’s ad displaying a QR code. If you read the code with your cell phone, it should immediately take you to information about that particular business.

Here are three QR Code examples.

The first will take you to the Alva Farmer’s Co-op web page. The second will take you to the menu for Lite N Nite. The third will take you to the Alva Review-Courier web site.

Power outage Saturday night

ShaLyn Schwerdtfeger and Dillon Schaefer

Schwerdtfeger—Schaefer announce engagement Randy and Traci Schwerdtfeger are proud to announce the engagement

of their daughter, ShaLyn to Dillon Schaefer, son of Rodney and Kris Schaefer, Okarche, Oklahoma.

ShaLyn attends NWOSU, where she is an accounting major. Dillon is in the Army Reserves and works as a diesel mechanic at John Deere in Alva.

ShaLyn and Dillon will marry on May 26 in Alva.

By Lynn L. Martin Part of the town of Alva experienced loss of electricity for about 45 minutes Saturday evening around 8 p.m. Alva OG&E employee Monte Pfleider said a power transformer encountered a problem at a sub-station. He said service was transferred to another transformer in that location.

The failure was sequential. At the Alva Review-Courier, a 1000 pound roll of newsprint had just been hoisted into the air to move onto the printing press.

Then because one-half of the 220 V line was without electricity, they were unable to use the “down” function and lower the paper. About half the lights were working in the building. Later, then entire facility went dark as the workers switched from one transfer to another.

Share Convalescent Center and the Share Medical Center may have suffered the most serious damage. Spokesman Kelly Parker said seven electric motors were damaged.

Theater goers at the Rialto were affected as the theaters went dark about ten minutes before the end of the show. Some waited out the power failure inside, some waited in their cars. Others accepted a free pass for another movie and went home.

Street lights were working on Barnes St, but not across the square on Flynn Street.

The OG&E power outage web site reported that about 850 customers were without service for a while.

VAP

how they can tweak a product to meet the customer’s needs.)

They are introducing new products.

One of those follows the Obama Administration’s push for healthier eating in K-12 schools. VAP is in heavy research and development of a whole, white wheat pizza crust for that purpose.

Despite that use of white wheat for one product, Merle said VAP is committed to promoting hard red winter wheat grown is this area as they have been from inception.

VAP is doing more business in Oklahoma – including “Made in Oklahoma” products. Merle said Reeser’s is selling VAP products as is Love’s Country Stores. He said VAP sells one truck of pizza crusts per month to Love’s. He said the Alva Love’s store does a tremendous business with VAP’s pizza crusts.

To gain more visibility, Merle said they are introducing VAP products at more trade shows around the nation. Another way to expand from their narrow customer base is looking at cruise ship business, he said.

The CEO said he’s working to reduce cost and run the business safer.

To date, VAP has paid $3.7 million owed on their original, $7 million note.

Plans are to restructure the current debt, Merle said.

Merle said the board would like to offer new shares to raise about $3 million in funds that will be used for improvements.

Share details are not yet finalized.

The plant needs a new roof. The money would also go to help expand technology, hire employees and promote business.

The largest purchase would be an oven to par-bake VAP dough products.

Par-baked products are highly requested in the industry – VAP has many requests for that type of product.

Merle said he researched used ovens that would be totally acceptable for VAP’s needs and much more affordable than new ones that can cost over $2 million, totally installed, with training, etc. He said good news is VAP’s plant has space to accommodate the oven which takes up vertical space and is a modular system.

A Glance at VAP’s Finances “This year showed a downturn in business,” Chris Pfannenstiel of Kennedy and Coe said as he presented VAP’s audit for the Fiscal Year which ended May 31,

The Statement of Operations sheet showed sales of $4,796,338 which were down from FY 2010 that saw sales of $7,384,850.

Gross profit of sales in FY 2010 was $983,608 compared to FY 2011 that showed a loss of $5,710.

That overall loss for FY ending May 31, 2011 is $830,778. Pfannenstiel said the decrease from the previous year is $1,198,000.

VAP’s Balance Sheets show total assets of $9,976,133 for FY ending May 31, 2011. At the end of FY 2010, those assets were $10,869,018.

Graphs and charts Pfannenstiel showed in a power point revealed that the last five years, VAP performed above average with the industry. His figures for FY 2011 showed VAP hovering at and dipping below the average.

There’s a net decrease in cash of $241,000.

Many factors contributed to the poor financial year beyond the economy. Merle said VAP saw a 12.5 percent increase in health insurance cost and 10 percent increase in worker’s comp insurance which was costly.

A bit of good news in this current 2012 FY is VAP’s health care as of January 1 has only a one percent increase, Merle said. Even better, worker’s comp costs saw a “significant decrease,” he said.

VAP pays an average $320 per month for each employee’s health care. Each employee pays only $20 per month toward their health care, Merle said.

Core customer growth was at three

percent during FY ending May 31, 2011, Merle said. Shortly before he came to VAP in 2010, the company lost a $3-$4 million customer, a grocery store on the west coast, which was a huge blow, Merle said.

He said with a company of this relatively small size, “One customer can literally change the outcome of the business.”

VAP currently has 65 employees – the company supports a $1.6 million payroll, according to Merle.

VAP paid $73,000 in local taxes last year, the CEO said. “We purchase as much as we can locally.”

After hearing the declined financial information and discussing the VAP Board’s intent to offer new stock, one investor spoke from the crowd and said, “It’s going to be hard to sell stock since stockholders have seen no return on their money.”

However, stockholders who are mainly wheat-farmers and ranchers, invested their money in this value-added industry to provide jobs for the local economy; get a tax break on their investment; with hopes of someday seeing a return on their venture.

VAP President Bob Baker said, “Since VAP started there was a shift in what our customers wanted. We live in changing times. VAP needs to change with the times and invest in a par-baked product.”

The stockholders’ meeting agenda included election of three directors. The three expired terms were held by Bob Baker, Gregg Glass and Gordon Karber.

With no other nominations from the floor, those three were accepted by acclamation.

Electric rate increase discussed, more property for oil company housing

By Yvonne Miller Kiowa’s City Council discussed a long list of agenda items at their January meeting Monday night from increasing electric rates to purchasing a new street sweeper.

Mayor Brandon Farney presided over the meeting with councilmen: Bill Watson, Brian Hill, Rus Molz and Mark Lambert. Councilman Brandon Poland was absent. City Administrator Nathan Law sat at the table along with City Clerk Marlo Rugg and City Attorney Laurel McClellan.

After a 35 minute executive session at the end of the meeting, council reportedly made salary adjustments as proposed by the administrator. They also gave the administrator a three percent salary increase.

One discussion came about from the reported recent purchase of Swonger Trailer Park along Rumsey Street by Exploration Properties.

Council authorized Mayor Farney to sign a contract with Exploration Properties for electrical improvements at the site.

The Newsgram called Exploration Properties representative Ryan Goyer

Tuesday. He said the company sees the need for RV service/housing in and around the Alva area.

Goyer said the intent at the Kiowa site is the possibility to have RV housing for at least six months, hopefully longer. He said they’ll have around sixty employees living there. Depending on their oil and gas business in that area, the number of employees could grow, Goyer said.

Electric Rate Increase?

Law said Alfalfa Electric Cooperative, who supplies electricity to the City of Kiowa, intends to have a rate hike beginning March 1. Law said this causes the need for the City of Kiowa to raise its rates. The proposed increase is 2.5 mills. This would bring the total to 13 mills.

Before approving the increase, council requested that Law break the figures down so it will show residents and businesses what the rate increase will cost them.

Street Sweeper Purchase After much discussion and consideration, council approved purchasing a new street sweeper. This is after a presentation by Tom Wyant, territory man-

ager with Key Equipment and Supply Company of Kansas City, Kan. Council approved the Elgin Pelican Sweeper at a cost of $168,986 after a $7,000 trade-in of the city’s old sweeper. It has a two-year warranty with unlimited hours, Wyant said.

Other options would be to overhaul the current sweeper at a cost of approximately $30,000. Or to invest $6,000 in needed repairs for the current sweeper and see how long it would run.

Purchasing now gave the city a chance to buy at a 2010 price which increases after January.

Talk of Police Complaint In Law’s administrator’s report, he told of receiving “a complaint regarding police personnel recently.” The administrator gave the complaint to the mayor “based on the past desire of a majority of council to have the mayor exercise authority over the police department.”

Law said he awaits an outcome of the written complaint as well as other issues regarding the police department presented to him over approximately the last month.

Alfalfa bridge plan promises 23 new bridges in next 12 month

By Roger McKenzie An ambitious five-year bridge program that carries the county through 2016 was approved at Tuesday’s meeting of the Alfalfa County commissioners. The meeting also included approval of an application for two emergency management grants and the opening of demolition bids for a fairgrounds’ building.

Circuit Engineering District #8 representative Donnie Head presented program resolutions and a plan that if everything goes off as anticipated could provide Alfalfa County with 23 new bridges “by this time next year.”

Some of the bridges will be built by the state and some by the county. In an associated matter, Circuit Engineering District auction policies were approved.

The policies are those used to operate a once a year statewide auction in which Alfalfa County can participate.

Diane Phillips, the county’s safety director and its deputy emergency management director, presented an application for an emergency management performance grant. The application was approved. It will be used to seek a $7,500 renewable grant that helps maintain an emergency management presence in the county. Two emergency management employees currently work in the county.

Vicki Eggers with the Northern Oklahoma Development Authority in Enid was present to request the county’s approval and support documentation for a grant that will help update the county’s hazard mitigation plan. The original plan dates back to 2004. It was due for an update in 2009, but some miscommunication prevented that from happening.

The commissioners approved Egg-

er’s request. The new plan, which covers what can be done in the event of a natural disaster, will go further than the original. It will include not just the county, but all of the county’s towns and its three school districts. The grant to produce the new plan will provide for 75 percent of the plan’s cost, or $46,321 paid by the federal government through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). That leaves $15,440.33 to be paid by the county (and possibly by the municipalities in the county).

Two bids for demolition of a fairgrounds building were opened. Action on the bids was tabled until next week’s meeting. M&M Wrecking of Blanchard, Oklahoma submitted a bid of $15,492.

Leonard Passwater of Ingersol submitted two bids. An all-inclusive bid totaled $24,000, while a bid that did not include cinder block rooms) totaled $22,000.

Eric George was approved as the receiving officer for the fairgrounds.

In other business, the commissioners: ● authorized a signature form required by the Oklahoma Department of Commerce. ● approved some fund transfers. One was $32,000 from the county’s highway

interest fund to its Capital Outlay Fund for District 3. The transfer will allow the purchase of a heavy equipment trailer.

Two more involved the assessor’s office.

The first of those was a $900 transfer for Visual Inspection Services expenses.

The money transferred from an account for part-time services to personal services. The second, for $1,200, will come from a travel account and go to personal services. ● gave the okay for two private property easement agreements. ● approved 13 road crossing permits that added a total of $10,000 to county income--$4,500 to District 1, $4,000 to District 2, and 1,500 to District 3. ● approved minutes, blanket purchase orders, maintenance and operations warrants, miscellaneous officers’ reports.

In the Unforeseen Business part of the agenda, Alfalfa County Clerk revealed that two candidates had signed up to run for the Fair Board. Chuck Green signed up for District 1, while Aaron Shepherd did the same in District 3. No one signed up for District 2’s seat. The county will now likely appoint a candidate for the District 2 seat.

Kiowa

Mayor Farney said this writing made him “mad.” The mayor said he had taken care of the issues and didn’t think he had to report back to the administrator.

This prompted a discussion once again about who the police department answers to – the mayor or city administrator?

Attorney McClellan said the way documents are now written, “It’s however you want to twist it.” He advised council, “You need to amend your code.” Council agreed to have the attorney draft a document for their review.

Dog Bite and Other Council Items A city employee was bitten by a dog recently when reading meters. Law said the owner did not have the dog registered with the city and was unable to produce paperwork to prove rabies shots.

The city employee had to take rabies shots, paid for by the city. The dog was put in a week of isolation at an Anthony veterinarian. Council expressed concern that city employees did not get the dog put in isolation for about a week.

Council agreed the dog owner is responsible for costs involved with the incident.

Council said they will plan another in-town vaccination clinic this spring.

During Council Items, Lambert referred to the “Ugly Wall” to the east of People’s Bank that’s been debated for years.

“It’s the first thing you see when coming on to Main Street from the west. Yet, we’re trying to beautify the city. It should be declared a nuisance.”

Law reminded it’s a civil matter.

Lambert reminded, “It is our (the city) building.”

Law said the city’s actual carryover funds are an increase of $256,352.33 or

a 23.9 percent increase from 2012 budgeted carryovers. Utility funds total an increase of $170,051.39, or 20.9 percent increase over 2012 budgeted carryovers.

“This puts us in better cash position than expected. But it will still be a tight budget for 2012,” Law said.

Law presented a proposed ordinance regarding city right-of-ways.

Molz said, “We’ve got too many regulations now. I don’t think we need it.” Hill and Lambert voiced their agreement.

Council agreed they’d rather have an ordinance stating if someone builds on the city right-of-way, the city is not responsible. Council directed Law to draw up papers like that for the next meeting.

Regarding fire trucks – council agreed to trade a 1980 Ford F9000 tank truck for a 1982 IHC Transtar 4300.

Council approved First State Bank and People’s Bank as the city’s official depositories. They approved Kiowa News as the city’s official newspaper for publishing city business. They also approved a GAAP waiver as they do annually for accounting purposes in a small town.
