NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of ScanSource, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2002 and March 31, 2003, the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2003 and statement of cash flows for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2003. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002.

 

Reclassifications—Certain reclassifications of prior period data have been made to conform with the current period reporting.

 

(2) Business Description and Certain Accounting Policies

 

The Company is a leading distributor of specialty technology products, providing both value-added distribution sales to technology resellers and e-logistics services to specialty technology markets. The Company has two geographic distribution segments: one serving North America from the Memphis distribution center, and an international segment currently serving Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe. The North American distribution segment markets automatic identification and data capture (“AIDC”) and point-of-sale (“POS”) products through its ScanSource sales unit; voice, data and converged communications equipment through its Catalyst Telecom sales unit; and converged communications products through its Paracon sales unit. The international distribution segment markets AIDC and POS products. A third segment, ChannelMax, provides e-logistics services.

 

Stock Split—Effective January 28, 2003, the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split of the common stock effected in the form of a 100% common stock dividend. The effect of the stock split has been recognized retroactively in all share and per share data in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Consolidation Policy—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Minority Interest—Minority interest represents that portion of the net equity of majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company that is held by minority shareholders. The minority shareholders’ share of the subsidiaries’ income or loss is included in other expense in the consolidated income statements. The Company owns a 90% majority interest in ChannelMax, Inc. Effective July 1, 2002, the Company acquired an additional 8% of the stock of Netpoint International, Inc. (“Netpoint”) and an additional 12% of Outsourcing Unlimited, Inc. (“OUI”). The Company now owns 60% of Netpoint and 64% of OUI, respectively.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. On an ongoing basis management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory reserves to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, management believes that its estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable and that the actual results will not vary significantly from the estimated amounts.

 

Revenue Recognition—Revenues are recognized for the sale of products upon shipment. The Company provides a reserve for estimated product returns and allowances. The Company also has arrangements in which it earns a service fee determined as a percentage of the value of products shipped on behalf of the manufacturer, which retains the risk of credit loss. In the event of termination of the programs, the Company has the right to return certain inventory to the manufacturer. Such service fees earned by the Company are included in net sales and were less than 1% of net sales for the quarters and nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003.

 

Inventories—Inventories (consisting of AIDC, POS, business phone and converged communications equipment) are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

 

Stock Options—The Company has three stock-based employee compensation plans. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principals of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Foreign Currencies—The currency effects of translating the financial statements of the Company’s foreign entities that operate in local currency environments other than the U.S. dollar are included in the cumulative currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The assets and liabilities of these foreign entities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at the end of the respective period. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at average exchange rates effective during the respective period.

 

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other income and expense in the consolidated income statement and were less than 1% of operating income for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2002. For the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, foreign currency gains and losses were 1.6% and 1% of operating income, respectively.

 

Comprehensive Income—For the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2002, comprehensive income, comprised of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments, approximated $5.1 million and $14.5 million, respectively. For the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, comprehensive income, approximated $5.1 million and $17.6 million, respectively.

 

Vendor Consideration Accounting—Cash consideration received from a vendor is recorded as a reduction of the cost of goods sold, unless the consideration meets certain criteria as defined in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 02-16, Accounting for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor. The adoption of EITF 02-16 did not have any material impact on the quarter or nine months net income ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted—In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which addresses financial reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB 30 related to the disposal of a segment of a business and was adopted by the Company on July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 had no effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement requires that the Company recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 on July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 had no effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure. This statement amends the transition requirements of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative, voluntary methods of transition to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The disclosure provision is required for all companies with stock-based employee compensation, regardless of whether the Company utilizes the fair value method of accounting described in SFAS No. 123 or the intrinsic value method described in APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The amendments to the transition and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. The disclosure requirements related to interim financial statements are effective for the Company’s quarter beginning January 1, 2003. The Company continues to account for stock-based employee compensation under the intrinsic value method described by APB Opinion No. 25. The adoption of SFAS No. 148 had no impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

In December 2002, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued EITF Issue No. 02-16, Accounting for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor. This issue addresses the appropriate accounting, by a distributor, for cash consideration received from a vendor and became effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. The adoption of EITF 02-16 requires that cash consideration received from a vendor should be recorded as a direct reduction to cost of goods sold, unless certain criteria are met. If these criteria are met, then the cash consideration should be a reduction of the operating expense for which it is being reimbursed. The adoption of EITF 02-16 did not have any material impact on the quarter or nine months net income ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

 

The Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 45—“Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” as of January 1, 2003. This Interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its financial statements about obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The Company has no new guarantees after December 31, 2002 requiring the measurement provisions of this interpretation.

The FASB issued Interpretation No. 46—“Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” that is an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements. This Interpretation addresses the consolidation requirements of business enterprises that have variable interest entities. The adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46 had no effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

(3) Revolving Credit Facility and Subsidiary Lines of Credit

 

The Company has a revolving credit facility with its bank group maturing on September 30, 2004, with a borrowing limit of the lesser of (i) $80 million or (ii) the sum of 85% of eligible accounts receivable plus the lesser of (a) 50% of eligible inventory or (b) $40 million. The facility bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate of interest plus a rate varying from 1.00% to 2.50% tied to the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio ranging from 2.50:1 to 4.25:1. The revolving credit facility is collateralized by accounts receivable and eligible inventory. The credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including minimum net worth requirements, capital expenditure limits, a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Company was in compliance with the various covenants at March 31, 2003. The effective interest rate at March 31, 2003 was 2.84% and the outstanding balance was $28.5 million on a calculated borrowing base that exceeded $80 million, leaving $51.5 million available for additional borrowings.

 

Netpoint, doing business as ScanSource Latin America, has an asset-based line of credit agreement with a bank that is due on demand. The borrowing limit on the line is the lessor of $600,000 or the sum of 75% of domestic receivables and 50% of foreign receivables, plus 10% of eligible inventory (up to $250,000). The facility bears interest at the bank’s prime rate of interest plus one percent (5.25% at March 31, 2003). All of the subsidiary’s assets collateralize the line of credit. The Company has guaranteed 60% of the balance on the line, while the subsidiary’s minority shareholder guarantees the remaining 40% of the balance. The line of credit contains certain financial covenants including certain thresholds for the leverage ratio (liabilities to equity) and current ratio. The subsidiary was in compliance with the various covenants at March 31, 2003. At March 31, 2003, there were no outstanding borrowings on the line of credit and outstanding standby letters of credit totaled $40,000 leaving $560,000 available for additional borrowings.

 

Another subsidiary, ScanSource UK has an overdraft loan facility that is due on demand under which it can draw up to £225,000 (approximately $360,000). The facility bears interest at the Bank of England’s prime rate plus 2.5% or 3.5% depending on the level of borrowings (3.75% at March 31, 2003). All of the subsidiary’s assets collateralize this facility. At March 31, 2003, the overdraft loan facility did not have an outstanding balance, leaving £225,000 available for additional borrowings.

(6) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

Effective July 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 revised the standards of accounting for goodwill by replacing the regular amortization of goodwill with the requirement that goodwill be reviewed for impairment annually or when events or circumstances occur between annual tests indicating that goodwill for a reporting unit (as defined) might be impaired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, no goodwill amortization was recorded for the quarters and nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003.

Identifiable intangible assets, included in other assets, consist of $337,000 in intangible assets acquired in fiscal 2002. These intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over a period of 5 years. Amortization expense during the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003 was $18,000 and $52,000, respectively. Accumulated amortization at March 31, 2003 was $94,000. Amortization expense for fiscal years 2003 through 2006 is estimated to be approximately $67,000 and $42,000 for fiscal 2007.

 

(7) Segment Information

 

The Company is a wholesale distributor of specialty technology products and a provider of e-logistics services to specialty technology markets. Based on geographic location, the Company has two segments for distribution of specialty technology products and a third segment for e-logistics.

 

The measure of segment profit is income from operations, and the accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of the Company’s June 30, 2002 annual report on Form 10-K.

 

The first reportable segment, North American distribution, offers approximately 22,000 products for sale in three primary categories: i) AIDC and POS equipment sold by the ScanSource sales team, ii) voice, data and converged communications equipment sold by the Catalyst Telecom sales team and iii) converged communications products sold by the Paracon sales team. These products are sold to more than 12,000 resellers and integrators of technology products, which are geographically disbursed over North America in a pattern that mirrors population concentration. Of its customers at March 31, 2003, no single account represented more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales. On January 1, 2003, ScanSource, Inc. sold its Mexico operations to Netpoint (part of the international distribution segment), a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. The segment information presented for fiscal year 2002 has been reclassified to include Mexico in the international distribution segment. Previously, the Mexico operations were reported in the North American distribution segment.

Table of Contents

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The second reportable segment, international distribution, sells to two geographic markets, Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe, and offers AIDC and POS equipment to more than 1,400 resellers and integrators of technology products. Of its customers at March 31, 2003, no single account represented more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.

 

The third reportable segment, ChannelMax, provides e-logistics services within North America for manufacturers and others in the AIDC and communication products markets. This unit serves less than 10 customers, none of whom accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales. Certain ChannelMax sales are recognized on a net fee basis (see Note 2) with the remainder recognized on a gross revenue basis.

 

The Company evaluates segment performance based on operating income. Intersegment sales consist primarily of fees charged by the ChannelMax segment to the North American distribution segment and sales by the North American distribution segment to the international distribution segment. All intersegment revenues and profits have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounts receivable, inventories, distribution center property and equipment and certain software can be identified by segment. However, cash, other current assets, other property and equipment, and other non-current assets are generally not distinguishable between the North American distribution and ChannelMax business segment and are listed as corporate assets in the following table. Debt is also generally not distinguishable between segments.

North American Distribution

 

North American distribution sales include sales to the United States and Canada (sales to Canada accounts for less than 3% of total net sales) from the Company’s Memphis, Tennessee distribution center. The increase in North American distribution sales for the quarter was driven by strong sales in the AIDC and POS product categories. The AIDC and POS product categories grew at 12% and 22% for the quarter and nine month period as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in net sales was mainly driven by increased volume in the North America markets. Sales of the telephony product category decreased 8% for the quarter as compared to the same period of the prior year. Management believes the decrease was a result of a general decline in the telephony market demand. Sales of telephony products increased 8% for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 compared to the same nine month period for the prior year. The sales growth for the nine month period was due to an increase in market share.

ChannelMax

 

The decreases in sales in the ChannelMax segment for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, as compared to the same period in the prior year, is a result of a slow economy. The decrease in sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, as compared to the same in the prior year, is are primarily due to the December 2001 renegotiation of a certain customer’s contract that extended its term and lessened the amount of inventory and accounts receivable risk to the Company. As a result of those changes to the contract, revenue from the customer is now recognized on a net fee basis, rather than a gross revenue basis as it was in the prior periods. ChannelMax’s revenues continued to be impacted during the nine month period by the slow economy. Over the past year, some telephone dealers have experienced lower sales and have therefore decreased their usage of ChannelMax’s services. Additionally, manufacturers served by ChannelMax have sufficient capacity due to the slower economy and have less need for ChannelMax’s outsourcing services.

 

International Distribution

 

The international distribution segment commenced in November 2001 with the acquisition of Netpoint International, Inc. (“Netpoint”) a Miami-based distributor that exports primarily to Latin America. On January 1, 2003, ScanSource, Inc. of the North American distribution segment sold its Mexico unit to Netpoint (part of the international distribution segment), which is a majority owned subsidiary of the Company. The Mexico unit continues to focus on sales of AIDC and POS technologies to the Mexican market. In January 2002, the Company opened a headquarters and distribution center in Belgium, serving all of Europe. In May 2002, the Company acquired ABC Technology Distribution, a United Kingdom-based distributor that serves the United Kingdom, Ireland and the remainder of Europe. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company completed its consolidation of the UK distribution center into the Belgium facility. The Company centralized its accounting and sales structure in the Belgium headquarters location. Sales for the overall international segment increased 221% as compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of ABC in May 2002 and increased market share in Europe and Latin America.

North American Distribution

 

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the North American distribution segment increased during the quarter ended March 31, 2003 primarily as a result of the adoption of EITF No. 02-16, Accounting for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor, pricing and mix. The adoption of EITF 02-16 did not have any material impact on the net income for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003.

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2003, gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased mainly as a result of several large low-margin POS sales orders during the second quarter. In addition, there was a more competitive market environment for telephony products due to a significant vendor’s decision to switch a portion of its product line to open-sourcing.

 

ChannelMax

 

The increase in the ChannelMax gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales nine months ended March 31, 2003 is attributed to the renegotiation of a customer contract, as discussed above, that resulted in revenue being recognized on a net fee basis.

 

International Distribution

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased. The decrease is primarily due to inventory reserves provided in Europe in conjunction with the warehouse consolidation.

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2003, gross profit as a percentage of sales increased primarily due to the critical mass growth in Europe during the prior period. In fiscal year 2002, the European unit reported lower gross margin, as the unit was not able to take advantage of volume purchasing.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased as compared to the same period from the prior year. The Company incurred restructuring costs of approximately $300,000 due to warehouse consolidation, centralization of accounting and sales structure changes during the quarter ended March 31, 2003. Further, the run rate of operating expenses of European operations is higher than the North American operating costs. The net impact of the mix change resulting from a higher percentage of sales in Europe approximates $500,000. The higher operating expenses run rate in Europe is offset by higher sales prices realization resulting in a similar operating profit percentage when compared to the North American results.

 

Operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 included a $1.4 million discretionary profit sharing contribution to the 401(k) plan, incremental direct expenses and restructuring costs associated with the development of the European operations, and charitable contributions of approximately $700,000. These increases to operating expenses were partially offset by lower bad debt expense and lower operating expenses for the North American distribution segment as compared to levels experienced in the comparable nine month period in the prior year.

Operating margins as a percentage of net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 were lower than the prior year quarter due primarily to increased operating expenses as a percentage of net sales as noted above. The increase in operating margins as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 is attributed to the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increase in operating expenses during past nine months as noted above.

Total Other Expense (Income). Other expense (income) consists principally of interest expense and interest income. Interest expense for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2002 was lower due to the decline in interest rates over the past year and lower average borrowings on the Company’s line of credit and long-term debt during the past nine months. Interest income represents interest collected principally from customers.

 

Other expense for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003 was $93,000 and $127,000, respectively. Other expense for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2002 was $131,000 and $458,000, respectively. Other expense is comprised primarily of the Company’s loss on an equity investment. Minority interest, included in other expense, is comprised of the minority interest share of the subsidiaries’ net income. For the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, minority interest amounted to $23,000 and $306,000, respectively. Minority interest for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2002 was $71,000 and $83,000, respectively.

 

Provision For Income Taxes. Income tax expense was $2.9 million and $3.8 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively, reflecting an effective income tax rate of 35.8% and 45.6%, respectively. Income tax expense was $8.1 million and $12.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively, reflecting an effective income tax rate of 37.9% and 42.2%, respectively. The increase in the tax rate during the past quarter and nine months is attributable to the effect of continued non-recognition of certain tax benefits related to the European units’ operating losses during the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003.

 

Extraordinary Item. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001, the Company finalized its accounting for the May 2001 acquisition of Pinacor, Inc., a business telephone distributor. The Company collected $1.3 million more of the purchased accounts receivable than it had previously estimated to be collectible. As a result, the fair value of the assets acquired in the acquisition exceeded the purchase price by $1.3 million. In accordance with SFAS 141, this amount was recognized as an extraordinary gain, net of $508,000 in taxes, during the quarter ended December 31, 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and, to a lesser extent, borrowings under the subsidiaries’ lines of credit and proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

 

The Company’s cash balance totaled $4.1 million at March 31, 2003 compared to $1.3 million at June 30, 2002. Domestic cash is generally swept on a nightly basis to pay down the Company’s line of credit. The Company’s working capital increased to $143.9 million at March 31, 2003 from $135.5 million at June 30, 2002. The increase in working capital resulted from a $1.9 million increase in accounts receivable, plus an additional $3.3 million recorded bad debt expense resulting in an increase of accounts receivable of $5.2 million and a $35.4 million decrease in accounts payable. This was offset by a $32.2 million decrease in inventory.

 

The increase in the accounts receivable balance was not significant in terms of days sales outstanding (DSO) in ending trade receivables remained at 45 days. The decrease in inventory was attributed to an improvement in inventory management. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, inventory turnover improved to 5.9 times from 4.8 times at June 30, 2002. The decrease in accounts payable resulted primarily from the reduction in inventory purchases during the past nine months.

 

Cash provided by operating activities was $19.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 compared to $2.7 million provided by operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributed to the changes in current assets and liability accounts discussed in the above working capital analysis and net income for the nine month period.

 

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 was $5.6 million, which included approximately $5.1 million for capital expenditures and $457,000 for the acquisition of additional ownership interests in two of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries (Netpoint and OUI). The Company’s capital expenditures resulted from the purchase of software and furniture and equipment. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, cash used in investing activities totaled $25.2 million, including $17.7 million paid for acquisitions (Positive ID, Netpoint and OUI) and capital expenditures of approximately $7.5 million.

 

Net borrowings under the Company’s primary credit facility totaled $28.5 million at March 31, 2003, compared to $43.8 million at June 30, 2002, reflecting cash provided by operating activities. The credit facility has a borrowing limit of the lesser of (i) $80 million or (ii) the sum of 85% of eligible accounts receivable plus the lesser of (a) 50% of eligible inventory or (b) $40 million. At March 31, 2003, the borrowing base exceeded $80 million, leaving $51.5 million for additional borrowings. The credit facility matures on September 30, 2004 and bears interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate of interest plus a rate varying from 1.00% to 2.50% and tied to the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio ranging from 2.50:1 to 4.25:1. The effective interest rate at March 31, 2003 was 2.84%. The revolving credit facility is collateralized by domestic accounts receivable and eligible inventory. The credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including minimum net worth requirements, capital expenditure limits, a maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2003, the Company was in compliance with the various covenants.

Item   2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations

 

Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 totaled $12.5 million, including $17.5 million in payments on long-term debt and the Company’s credit facility offset by $5.0 million in proceeds from stock option exercises. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2002 totaled $23.8 million, primarily from borrowings under the Company’s credit facility.

 

The Company owns an equity interest in a limited liability company for which it has guaranteed debt up to approximately $496,000. As of March 31, 2003, the limited liability company had assets with a fair market value in excess of $1.7 million and liabilities of approximately $2.0 million.

 

The Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity to meet its forecasted cash requirements for at least the next year.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted—In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which addresses financial reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB 30 related to the disposal of a segment of a business and was adopted by the Company on July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 had no effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement requires that the Company recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 on July 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 had no effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure. This statement amends the transition requirements of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative, voluntary methods of transition to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. It also amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity’s accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The disclosure provision is required for all companies with stock-based employee compensation, regardless of whether the Company utilizes the fair value method of accounting described in SFAS No. 123 or the intrinsic value method described in APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. The amendments to the transition and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. The disclosure requirements related to interim financial statements are effective for the Company’s quarter beginning January 1, 2003. The Company continues to account for stock-based employee compensation under the intrinsic value method described by APB Opinion No. 25. The adoption of SFAS No. 148 had no impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Item   2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations

 

In December 2002, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 02-16, Accounting for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor. This issue addresses the appropriate accounting, by a distributor, for cash consideration received from a vendor and became effective for the Company on January 1, 2003. The adoption of EITF 02-16 requires that cash consideration received from a vendor should be recorded as a direct reduction to cost of goods sold, unless certain criteria are met. If these criteria are met, then the cash consideration should be a reduction of the operating expense for which it is being reimbursed. The adoption of EITF 02-16 did not have any material impact on net income for the quarters and nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively.

 

The Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 45—“Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” as of January 1, 2003. This Interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its financial statements about obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The Company has no new guarantees after December 31, 2002 triggering the measurement provisions.

 

The FASB issued Interpretation No. 46—“Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” that is an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements. This Interpretation addresses the consolidation requirements of business enterprises that have variable interest entities. The adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46 had no effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Item   3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

 

The Company’s principal exposure to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of its business is a result of its selective use of bank debt and, to a much lesser extent, transacting business in foreign currencies in connection with its foreign operations.

 

The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its borrowing activities, which include a revolving credit facility with a bank group used to maintain liquidity and fund the Company’s business operations. The nature and amount of the Company’s debt may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. The definitive extent of the Company’s interest rate risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements, but the Company does not believe such risk is material. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on borrowings on the Company’s revolving line of credit, variable rate long term debt and subsidiary lines of credit would have resulted in an approximate $109,000 decrease or increase in pre-tax income for the quarter ended March 31, 2003. The Company does not currently use derivative instruments or take other actions to adjust the Company’s interest rate risk profile.

 

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from its foreign operations in Canada and Europe. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The Company monitors its risk associated with the volatility of certain foreign currencies against its functional currency, the U.S. dollar. The impact of changes in the relationship of other currencies to the U.S. dollar have historically not been significant, and such changes in the future are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a foreign exchange hedging policy to minimize foreign currency exposure. As of the date of this report, the Company currently has not entered into forward exchange contracts, currency options or other traditional hedging vehicles to adjust the Company’s foreign exchange rate risk profile. The Company continually evaluates foreign exchange risk and may enter into foreign exchange transactions in accordance with its policy. The Company does not enter into foreign currency transactions for speculative purposes. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in other income and expenses.

 

The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged financial instruments. On the basis of the fair value of the Company’s market sensitive instruments at March 31, 2003, the Company does not consider the potential near-term losses in future earnings, fair values or cash flows from reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates or exchange rates to be material.

  6.   The registrant’s other certifying officers and I have indicated in this quarterly report whether or not there were significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
