THE VERMONT TEDDY BEAR CO., INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

The interim financial statements of The Vermont Teddy Bear Co., Inc. (the "Company") included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition and results of operations for such interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, included in the Company's filing with the SEC on Form 10-K. The Company's sales are seasonal in nature and, therefore, the results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the respective full years.

(2) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Vermont Teddy Bear Co., Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, SendAMERICA, Inc. and Calyx & Corolla, Inc. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(3) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

(4) Earnings Per Share

The following tables reconcile the net loss and the weighted average common shares outstanding to the diluted net loss and shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2003, and 2002 exclude 2,002,167 and 1,696,108 potential common shares respectively from stock options, warrants, and convertible preferred stock because to include such shares would have been anti-dilutive to the Company's net loss for the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002.

(5) Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation cost is accounted for using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Accordingly, no accounting recognition is given to stock options granted at fair market value until they are exercised. Upon exercise, net proceeds, including the tax benefits realized, are credited to shareholders' equity.

Pro-forma disclosure - Had the Company recognized compensation costs for its stock option and purchase plans based on fair market value for awards under those plans, in accordance with SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share would have been as follows:

(6) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46). FIN46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities. Under that interpretation, certain entities known as Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) must be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity. The primary beneficiary is generally defined as having the majority of the risks and rewards arising from the VIE. For VIEs in which a significant (but not majority) variable interest is held, certain disclosures are required. It applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and applies in the first year or interim period ending after December 15, 2003 to variable interest entities in which an enterprise hold a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the effects that the adoption of FIN 46 will have on the Company's financial positio n, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 is the first phase of the FASB's project on liabilities and equity. SFAS No. 150 provides guidance on how an entity classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Many of these instruments were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. SFAS No. 150 requires companies to record the cumulative effect of financial instruments existing at the adoption date. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 145 on July 1, 2003. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(7) Indebtedness

On August 29, 2003, the Company closed on a $1,000,000 loan facility (the "Acquisition Loan") with Banknorth N.A. for the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of the floral delivery business Calyx & Corolla from Equity Resource Partners LLC. The Acquisition Loan is being repaid by monthly payments of principal of $16,667 and interest over a term of five years. The Company had the option to select one of two interest rate options, as follows: (i) a variable rate equal to either the bank's prime rate minus 0.50% (adjusted daily) or (ii) LIBOR (for 30, 60, 90 day interest periods) plus 2.20% (except that no more than three LIBOR based borrowings would be allowed at any one time). The Acquisition Loan was subject to an origination fee of 0.25% of the principal amount. At closing, the Company selected a 3.32 percent interest rate based on the 30 day LIBOR rate.< /P>

(8) Acquisition

On August 29, 2003, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Calyx & Corolla, Inc., a Delaware corporation, purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of the floral delivery business Calyx & Corolla from Equity Resource Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The acquisition was consummated pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement and related documents on August 29, 2003. The results of Calyx & Corolla's operations have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of August 29, 2003.

The acquired assets included accounts receivable, inventory, the trade name, customer databases and lists, other intellectual property, and fixed assets, including order processing equipment and certain office furnishings used in the Calyx & Corolla floral delivery business. Working capital obligations assumed include trade payables, accrued compensation and certain executory contracts. Calyx & Corolla, Inc. will hold the acquired assets and liabilities assumed and intends to continue the Calyx & Corolla business.

The consideration paid was $3.7 million consisting of $1.2 million paid in cash and the remainder paid in the form of 250 shares of the Company's Series D Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock ("Series D Preferred") at a fair value of $10,000 per share. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $173,000 of transaction costs consisting primarily of legal and accounting fees. The Series D Preferred shares are convertible into the Company's common stock at a price of $3.53 per common share and have voting rights on an as-converted basis. A portion of the cash consideration paid was financed with a five-year acquisition loan in the amount of $1.0 million ("Acquisition Loan") from Banknorth, N.A, the remainder of the cash consideration and transaction costs paid was funded from cash on hand.

The following table sets forth the consideration paid by the Company:

Cash consideration

Series D convertible redeemable preferred stock

2,500,000

Transaction costs and expenses

173,206

Total consideration

$ 3,873,206

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method, and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date.

The following table sets forth the allocation of the purchase consideration to working capital, fixed assets and intangible assets acquired:

Accounts receivable

$ 237,003

Inventory

472,917

Prepaid expenses

199,259

Deposits

Deferred revenue

(1,118,761)

(55,094)

 

$ 3,873,206

 

The amount allocated to the trademark, tradename and customer list was determined by management after considering the results of an independent appraisal based on established valuation techniques. The customer list is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 3 years.

The following unaudited pro forma information for the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the following three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was prepared assuming the acquisition of Calyx & Corolla occurred on July 1, 2002. These pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of operating results that would have occurred if the Calyx & Corolla acquisition had occurred on July 1, 2002.

Each of the shares of Series D Preferred has a minimum liquidation value of $10,000 per share, and is convertible into 2,832 shares of the Company's common stock. The Series D Preferred ranks junior to both Series A and Series C Preferred Stock but senior to all other shares of capital stock of the Company. The Series D Preferred stockholders may, at any time after December 31, 2004, require the Company to redeem some or all of the Series D Preferred shares at their minimum liquidation value, not to exceed $650,000 annually on a rolling 12-month basis. The Series D Preferred requires mandatory redemption of all outstanding shares at the minimum liquidation value along with all accrued but unpaid dividends ten years after issuance. The Series D Preferred carries voting rights on an as-converted basis, and, as a class, has the right to elect one member to the Company's Board of Directors. The Series D Preferred sh ares have a cumulative preferred cash dividend of 5.0 % per annum, payable quarterly.

The Company obtained a consent related to this transaction as a result of restrictive covenants contained in certain of its lending arrangements.

There are no material relationships among the parties or their affiliates, officers, directors, members or managers, or any of their associates.

Subsequent to the August 29, 2003 closing date of the Calyx & Corolla acquisition, Equity Resource Partners, LLC reimbursed the Company $225,000 to offset actual accounts payable obligations in excess of those estimated at closing.

(9) Segment Information

Operating segments represent components of the Company's business that are evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in assessing performance and resource allocation. The Company has determined that its reportable segments consist of the Gram delivery service, Retail Operations, and Corporate/Wholesale (including licensing). The Gram delivery service is comprised of Bear-Gram, PajamaGram, Calyx & Corolla floral, and TastyGram delivery services.

The Bear-Gram delivery service involves sending personalized teddy bears directly to recipients for special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and new births, as well as holidays such as Valentine's Day, Christmas, and Mother's Day. Bear-Gram orders are placed through the toll free number, on-line at vermontteddybear.com , or through the catalog.

The PajamaGram delivery service involves sending pajamas and related loungewear and spa products to recipients as gifts for similar special occasions and holidays. PajamaGram orders are placed via a toll free number or online at pajamagram.com.

The Calyx & Corolla business was acquired on August 29, 2003 for the purposes of extending the Company's product offerings in the gift delivery service industry to include floral delivery service. The Calyx & Corolla delivery service involves sending premium flowers and plants with unique up-scale arrangements and containers to recipients, direct from the growers, as gifts for special occasions and holidays.

(10) Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party in a suit against 538 Madison Realty Company pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, seeking a declaration that a lease with 538 Madison Realty Company is terminated.

On October 24, 1996, the company entered into a ten-year lease for 2,600 square feet on Madison Avenue in New York City. On December 7, 1997, the Company's 538 Madison Avenue location was closed due to structural problems at neighboring 540 Madison Avenue. On December 16, the Company announced that it was permanently closing that retail location. The City of New York deemed the 538 Madison Avenue building uninhabitable from December 8, 1997 to April 9, 1998, and the Company has not made any rent payments on the lease since December, 1997. On December 24, 1998, the Company received a notice from its landlord of 538 Madison Avenue alleging that it was in default under the lease for failure to resume occupancy, and demand for back rent for the period July 8, 1998 to December 31, 1998 in the amount of $144,355. Further on January 4, 1999 the Company received a demand to resume rent payments beginning January 1999. The Company disputed the landlord's position and believed it was not obliga ted to resume occupancy or pay rent under the lease. As a result, on May 25, 1999, the Company commenced action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against 538 Madison Realty Company. The action sought breach of contract damages and a declaration that the contract at issue, the former lease between the parties, has been terminated. The landlord moved to dismiss the action based on purported documentary evidence, being the lease itself. That motion was denied by order entered April 12, 2000. After having unsuccessfully attempted to resolve the disputes and after engaging in document discovery, the Company moved for summary judgment on its claims and dismissal of the landlord's claims. That motion was granted by order dated July 25, 2001 and judgment was entered in favor of the Company and against the landlord in the amount of $211,146 on August 10, 2001. The landlord filed an appeal of that judgment and, as settlement discussions were unsuccessful, posted a bond to stay e nforcement of the judgment pending its appeal, which was argued on November 1, 2002. That judgment was affirmed by a 3-2 vote of New York's Appellate Division, First Department. Based on the two dissenting votes, the landlord has a right of appeal to New York's Court of Appeals, which is presently being briefed and will likely be argued in early 2004. The Company has accrued management's estimated cost of $220,000 to settle this contingency, but no assurance can be given that this dispute can be settled for this amount. In the event that no settlement is reached and the judgment is ultimately reversed on appeal and the Company is not successful in its suit against 538 Madison Realty Company, the remaining amount owed under the lease over its remaining term at face value is $2,825,000.

There are various other claims, lawsuits, and pending actions against the Company incident to the operations of its businesses. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, that the ultimate resolution of such claims, lawsuits and pending actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. There can be no assurance, however, that claims will not be made against the Company in the future. Such claims, if material, may adversely affect the Company's businesses and results of operations.

 

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis provides information that the Company's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes that appear elsewhere in this report filed on Form 10-Q. This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," and other expressions that predict or indicate future events and trends, and that do not relate to historical matters, identify forward-looking statements. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in such forward-looking state ments. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable laws and regulations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their impact cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgement. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

We believe application of accounting policies, and the estimates inherently required therein, are reasonable. These accounting policies and estimates are constantly reevaluated, and adjustments are made when facts and circumstances dictate a change.

We have identified certain critical accounting policies, which are described below:

Inventory Valuation

The Company carries its inventory at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company makes certain assumptions to adjust inventory based on historical experience and current information in order to assess that inventory is recorded properly at the lower of cost or market. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory adjustments may be required. These adjustments can have a significant impact on future operating results and financial position.

Providing for Litigation Contingencies

The Company is involved in litigation incidental to its business, the disposition of which is expected to have no material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by differences between the Company's assumptions related to these proceedings and actual results. The Company accrues its best estimate of the probable cost for the resolution of legal claims. Such estimates are developed in consultation with outside counsel handling these matters and are based upon a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. To the extent additional information arises, it is possible that the Company's best estimate of its probable liability in these matters may change.

Returns and Allowances Provision

The Company accrues a provision for returns and allowances. The Company makes certain assumptions to adjust this provision based on historical experience and current information in order to assess that the provision is estimated properly. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional adjustments to the provision may be required. These adjustments can have a significant impact on future operating results and financial position.

 

 

 

Income Tax Provision

The Company provides for income taxes at rates equal to our combined federal and state effective rates, however, certain estimates are made based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Subsequent revisions to the estimated net realizable value of deferred tax assets, deferred tax liabilities and other income tax liabilities could cause our provision for income taxes to vary significantly from period to period.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002.

Net revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 2003 totaled $4,980,000, a decrease of $104,000 from net revenues of $5,084,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2002. By business segment, $773,000 in decreased revenues were attributable to the Bear-Gram gift delivery service and $228,000 in decreased revenues were attributable to the Retail Store segment. Revenues in the Bear-Gram segment decreased as the Company curtailed advertising in this segment in the three month period, which is the Company's slowest quarter for Bear-Gram sales as it does not include a major gift giving holiday. Revenues in the Retail Store segment declined due to fewer tourists visiting the Company's factory retail store in the period ended September 30, 2003. These decreases were offset by increases in the PajamaGram gift delivery service segment revenues of $184,000, increases in the Corporate/Wholesale segment revenues of $50,000, increases in TastyGram segment revenues of $21,000 , and revenues of $643,000 generated in September from the recently acquired Calyx and Corolla floral delivery segment.

Gross margin decreased $370,000 to $2,762,000, or 55.5 percent of net revenues, for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, from $3,132,000, or 61.6 percent of net revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 2002. The gross margin decreases in the Bear-Gram segment and the Retail Store segment are primarily the result of lower net revenues in these segments. Increased bear unit manufacturing costs as domestic bear production volume was adjusted to the Company's lower net revenues resulted in a 4.2 gross margin percentage point decrease in the Bear-Gram segment. The decrease of 5.5 gross margin percentage points in the Retail Store segment is associated with higher unit costs in this segment. The decreases in gross margin dollars described above were partially offset by gross margin dollar increases in the PajamaGram, Corporate/Wholesale and TastyGram segments related to increased revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2003. An incr ease of 10.6 gross margin percentage points in the PajamaGram segment resulted from improved unit gross margins and product mix changes in the period. The 2.0 gross margin percentage point decrease in the Corporate/Wholesale segment is the result of increased sales of domestic bears with higher unit costs in this period. The gross margin increase in the TastyGram gift delivery service segment is partially attributed to higher unit gross margins and improved product mix in this segment as compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2002. The 41.8 gross margin percentage contribution resulting from the recently acquired Calyx & Corolla segment, which is less as a percentage of net revenues than the Company's overall gross margin percent, contributed to the decrease in gross margin percentage. In the month of September 2003, the Calyx & Corolla gross margin was negatively impacted by $62,000 of costs related to the relocation of Calyx & Corolla's fulfillment and inventory operations to the Company's Shelburne, VT location.

Marketing and Selling expenses decreased $276,000 to $1,781,000, or 35.8 percent of net revenues, for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, from $2,057,000, or 40.5 percent of net revenues, for the comparable period ending September 30, 2002. Decreased Bear-Gram advertising costs of $366,000, which include radio, catalog, Internet and print costs as the company scaled back its radio advertising, decreased TastyGram marketing and merchandising costs of $42,000, decreased PajamaGram marketing costs of $40,000, decreased call center and customer service costs of $39,000, decreased Retail Store costs of $21,000, and decreased Corporate/Wholesale marketing and selling costs of $19,000 during the three month period ended September 30, 2003 were partially offset by $251,000 in marketing and selling costs associated with the Company's recently acquired Calyx & Corolla segment. The $251,000 of Calyx & Corolla Marketing and Selling costs include $40,000 in temporary occupancy costs and $9,000 in salaries and other costs related to the relocation of Calyx & Corolla's operations to the Company's Shelburne, VT location.

General and administrative expenses decreased to $1,073,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, compared to $1,081,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2002. As a percentage of net revenues, general and administrative expenses increased to 21.5 percent for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, from 21.3 percent for the comparable period ended September 30, 2002. General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 2003 include $123,000 of expenses attributable to Calyx & Corolla, of which $19,000 are related to the relocation of Calyx & Corolla's information technology operations to the Company's Shelburne, VT location.

Interest expense increased to $153,000 due to increased long term debt obligations for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, compared to $134,000 for the comparable period ending September 30, 2002. Interest income decreased to $12,000 as a result of lower cash balances and lower interest rates in the three month period ended September 30, 2003, compared to $63,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2002.

The Company has recorded a tax benefit of $95,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2003, at an effective income tax rate of 40.7 percent. The Company recorded a tax benefit of $31,000 for the comparable period ended September 30, 2002, at an effective income tax rate of 40.0 percent.

As a result of the foregoing factors and the Series A Preferred Stock dividends of $18,000, the Series C Preferred Stock dividends of $3,000, the accretion of an original issue discount of $14,000, and the Series D Preferred Stock dividends of $10,000, the net loss available to Common Stockholders for the three month period ended September 30, 2003 was $183,000, compared to a net loss available to Common Stockholders of $87,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2002.

The following is a summary of the Company's contractual commitments and other obligations as of September 30, 2003. The Company's Other Long-Term Obligations are comprised of employment contracts and certain consulting arrangements.

As of September 30, 2003, the Company's cash position decreased to $2,433,000, from $5,701,000 at June 30, 2003. Of the $2,433,000, $536,000 is classified as restricted cash; there was $533,000 of restricted cash at June 30, 2003. The largest component of the restricted cash is $466,000 restricted by a debt service reserve, which was required as part of the loan agreement with Banknorth, N.A., that is required to be maintained as part of the Company's sale-leaseback transaction. Cash decreases from the reduction of accounts payable, the cash paid for the acquisition of Calyx & Corolla and the increase in inventories was offset by the cash provided from the borrowing from Banknorth, N.A. associated with the acquisition of Calyx & Corolla.

On August 29, 2003, the Company closed on a $1,000,000 loan facility with Banknorth N.A. for the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of the floral delivery business Calyx & Corolla from Equity Resource Partners LLC. The Acquisition Loan is being repaid by monthly payments of principal and interest over a term of five years. The Company had the option to select one of two interest rate options, as follows: (i) a variable rate equal to either the bank's prime rate minus 0.50% (adjusted daily) or (ii) LIBOR (for 30, 60, 90 day interest periods) plus 2.20% (except that no more than three LIBOR based borrowings would be allowed at any one time). The Acquisition Loan was subject to an origination fee of 0.25% of the principal amount. At closing, the Company selected a 3.32 percent interest rate based on the 30 day LIBOR rate.

The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalent balances, together with funds generated from operations and available borrowings under its loan commitments from Banknorth N.A., will be sufficient to finance the Company's operations for at least the next twelve months.

Commitments & Contingencies

On October 24, 1996, the company entered into a ten-year lease for 2,600 square feet on Madison Avenue in New York City. On December 7, 1997, the Company's 538 Madison Avenue location was closed due to structural problems at neighboring 540 Madison Avenue. On December 16, the Company announced that it was permanently closing that retail location. The City of New York deemed the 538 Madison Avenue building uninhabitable from December 8, 1997 to April 9, 1998, and the Company has not made any rent payments on the lease since December, 1997. On December 24, 1998, the Company received a notice from its landlord of 538 Madison Avenue alleging that it was in default under the lease for failure to resume occupancy, and demand for back rent for the period July 8, 1998 to December 31, 1998 in the amount of $144,355. Further on January 4, 1999 the Company received a demand to resume rent payments beginning January 1999. The Company disputed the landlord's position and believed it was not obliga ted to resume occupancy or pay rent under the lease. As a result, on May 25, 1999, the Company commenced action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against 538 Madison Realty Company. The action sought breach of contract damages and a declaration that the contract at issue, the former lease between the parties, has been terminated. The landlord moved to dismiss the action based on purported documentary evidence, being the lease itself. That motion was denied by order entered April 12, 2000. After having unsuccessfully attempted to resolve the disputes and after engaging in document discovery, the Company moved for summary judgment on its claims and dismissal of the landlord's claims. That motion was granted by order dated July 25, 2001 and judgment was entered in favor of the Company and against the landlord in the amount of $211,146 on August 10, 2001. The landlord filed an appeal of that judgment and, as settlement discussions were unsuccessful, posted a bond to stay e nforcement of the judgment pending its appeal, which was argued on November 1, 2002. That judgment was affirmed by a 3-2 vote of the New York Appellate Division, First Department. Based on the two dissenting votes, the landlord has a right of appeal to the New York Court of Appeals, which is presently being briefed and will likely be argued in early 2004. The Company has accrued management's estimated cost of $220,000 to settle this contingency, but no assurance can be given that this dispute can be settled for this amount. In the event that no settlement is reached and the judgment is ultimately reversed on appeal and the Company is not successful in its suit against 538 Madison Realty Company, the remaining amount owed under the lease over its remaining term at face value is $2,825,000.

There are various other claims, lawsuits, and pending actions against the Company incident to the operations of its businesses. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, that the ultimate resolution of such claims, lawsuits and pending actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. There can be no assurance, however, that claims will not be made against the Company in the future. Such claims, if material, may adversely affect the Company's businesses and results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company's earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates primarily from its investment of available cash balances in money market funds. Under its current policies, the Company does not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. A ten percent fluctuation in interest rates would not have a material impact on the Company's ability to meet its financial obligations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures. Within 90 days before filing this report, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Elisabeth B. Robert, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and Mark J. Sleeper, Chief Accounting Officer, reviewed and participated in this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, Ms. Robert and Mr. Sleeper concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in promptly alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

(b) Internal controls. Since the date of the evaluation described above, there have not been any significant changes in our internal accounting controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party in a suit against 538 Madison Realty Company pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, seeking a declaration that a lease with 538 Madison Realty Company is terminated. A description of the background and current status of this action appears in Part I, Note 10 of this report under the heading Legal Proceedings.

There are various other claims, lawsuits, and pending actions against the Company incident to the operations of its businesses. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, that the ultimate resolution of such claims, lawsuits and pending actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. There can be no assurance, however, that claims will not be made against the Company in the future. Such claims, if material, may adversely affect the Company's businesses and results of operations.
