Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note A Basis of Presentation, Nature of Operations and Summary of Accounting Policies
Organization and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and estimated provisions for bonus and profit-sharing arrangements) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended April 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending October 29, 2005.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Form 10-K filed by Plastipak Holdings, Inc. (Plastipak) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 28, 2005.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2004 financial information in order for them to conform to the classifications at April 30, 2005.
Note B Fiscal Period
Plastipak has elected a 52/53 week fiscal period for tax and financial reporting purposes. Plastipaks fiscal period ends on the Saturday closest to October 31. The three month periods ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004 contained 13 weeks. The six month periods ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004 contained 26 weeks.
Note C New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 151 (SFAS 151), Inventory Costs. SFAS 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and spoilage. This statement requires that these items be expensed as incurred and not included in overhead. In addition, SFAS 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to conversion costs should be based on normal capacity of the production facilities. This Statement is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact from this standard on its results of operations and financial position.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153 (SFAS 153), Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets. SFAS 153, amends APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions. This statement eliminates the exception to fair value in Opinion 29 for exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. This Statement is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Therefore, the Company will be required to adopt SFAS 153 on October 31, 2005. The Company historically has not engaged in significant exchanges that are included in the scope of SFAS 153.

Note C New Accounting Pronouncements Continued
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123(R) (SFAS 123(R)), Share-Based Payment. This statement replaces Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) will require compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements (with limited exceptions). The amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. This statement is effective for public companies as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005 and for nonpublic companies as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact from this standard on its results of operations and financial position.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued two FASB Staff Positions (FSP) that provide accounting guidance on how companies should account for the effects of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 that was signed into law on October 22, 2004. FSP FAS 109-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, states that the manufacturers deduction provided for under this legislation should be accounted for as a special deduction instead of a tax rate change. FSP FAS 109-2, Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, allows a company additional time to evaluate the effects of the legislation on any plan for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings for purposes of applying Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. These FSPs may affect how a company accounts for deferred income taxes. These FSPs are effective December 21, 2004. The Company has completed its evaluation of these FSPs. The adoption of these FSPs did not have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

On January 28, 2005, the Company amended its revolving credit agreement and entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement. The amendment provides for an increase in the line of credit from $150.0 million to $300.0 million. The agreement allows the Company to borrow up to $300.0 million subject to borrowing base limitations and covenant restrictions. Interest under the Amended Credit Agreement is payable at 175 to 350 basis points per annum over Eurodollar or at prime rates, as the Company selects. The Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets, including pledges of the stock of Plastipak and all of its material foreign subsidiaries. Plastipak, Packaging, Whiteline, Clean Tech, and TABB are the borrowers and guarantors under the Amended Credit Agreement and Plastipak guarantees obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement. As of April 30, 2005, $59.4 million and $18.6 million in letters of credit and borrowings, respectively, were currently outstanding under the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Company had $222.0 million available for borrowing subject to borrowing base limitations and covenant restrictions.
Note F Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, requires companies to recognize all of their derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge.

Note F Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Continued
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current earnings during the period of the change in fair values. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings during the period of change. The Company currently uses only fair value hedge accounting.
On March 11, 2003, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements. In connection with the Senior Notes, the Company exchanged fixed rate interest of 10.75% for variable rate interest. The interest rate swap agreements have notional amounts of $50.0 million each. The variable rates are equal to six month LIBOR plus 6.46% and 6.66%, respectively, for an 8-year period ending September 1, 2011. On February 18, 2005 pursuant to an agreement between the Company and the bank to terminate the interest rate swap agreements, the Company paid the bank $3,245,000 which has been recorded as a decrease in the senior notes and will be amortized over the term of the notes.
Note G Stock Compensation Plans
Plastipak sponsors two Restricted Stock Bonus Plans: the Amended and Restated Restricted Stock Bonus Plan and the 2002 Restricted Stock Bonus Plan. The Company accounts for unexercised options under these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. The plans are considered to be variable plans and therefore, stock-based employee compensation cost for unexercised options is reflected in net income as a component of general and administrative expenses, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Amounts expensed for unexercised options approximate that which would have been expensed had the value of the options granted been computed under provisions of SFAS 123.
The Company accounts for shares issued under these plans under the provisions of SFAS 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. The provisions of SFAS 150 were effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. SFAS 150 requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). This statement requires an issuer to classify a financial instrument issued in the form of shares that is mandatorily redeemable and that embodies an unconditional obligation requiring the issuer (the Company) to redeem it by transferring its assets at specified or determinable date (or dates) or upon an event that is certain to occur. SFAS 150 requires that a company initially measure mandatorily redeemable instruments at fair value. The Company currently reflects a liability for these instruments at fair value; therefore, no initial transition adjustment was required.

Each of the above-referenced plans require the Company, subject to certain limitations, to repurchase the shares issued under the plans at a price based upon a book value computation plus certain formula adjustments. Increases in the per share redemption value associated with shares issued under the plans are treated as interest expense and an increase to obligations under stock bonus plans. Included in interest expense for the three months and six months ended April 30, 2005 was $290,421 and $561,780, respectively. Increases in the per share redemption value associated with options granted under the plans are treated as compensation expense and an increase to obligations under stock bonus plans. Included in general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended April 30, 2005 was $338,676 and $655,123, respectively, representing the excess of the redemption value over the exercise price for options granted and the increase in redemption value associated with unexercised options.
As of April 30, 2005, the balance of obligations under the stock bonus plans subject to mandatory redemption was $5,807,606. Under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement, the Company may redeem equity interests of employees pursuant to the Restricted Stock Bonus Plans in amounts not to exceed $3,000,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year.
The table below summarizes the changes in the Companys stock compensation plans.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Managements discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Please refer to the Risks Related to Our Business section, in our Form 10-K for the year ended October 30, 2004, for a summary of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in a forward-looking statement. As you read the material below, we urge you to carefully consider our financial statements and related information provided herein.
All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our future financial position, economic performance and results of operations, as well as our business strategy, budgets and projected costs and plans and objectives of management for future operations are forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, expect, intend, estimate, anticipate, believe, or continue or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, without limitation, risks associated with our South American and European operations, competition in our product categories (including the impact of possible new technologies and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues and margins), our high degree of leverage and substantial debt service obligations, the restrictive covenants contained in instruments governing our indebtedness, our exposure to fluctuations in resin and energy prices, our dependence on significant customers and the risk that customers will not purchase our products in the amounts we expect, our dependence on key management and our labor force and the material adverse effect that could result from the loss of their services. All forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth in this paragraph.

Three Months Ended April 30, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended May 1, 2004
Revenue
Revenue for the second quarter increased 27.8% over the same period in 2004 to $321.0 million with unit sales increasing 7.8%. This performance was a result of continued strong demand from customers in our major product categories, the introduction of new packages and increases in material prices during the quarter. In Brazil, unit sales increased 2%, with sales revenue increasing over 65% to $34.8 million due primarily to higher raw material prices, improved pricing conditions and tightened capacity in the Brazilian market. In the U.S., volume gains were primarily attributable to new product initiatives and consistent performance in our major product categories. The increases in revenue were partially offset by price reductions implemented for new business and the extension of current business.
24
Revenue and unit sales increases and decreases by product category are discussed more specifically below:
| Carbonated and non-carbonated beverage revenue increased 31.4% to $136.3 million during the three-month period ended April 30, 2005 with unit volume up 6.0% over the same period in 2004. Unit volume growth showed continued strength in the water sector and our carbonated beverage segment increased as a result of new product and package introductions from the brand owners. | |||
| Consumer cleaning revenue increased 22.8% to $93.5 million in the second quarter of 2005, while unit volume increased 14.7% from the year ago period. New product introductions combined with strength in our customer core businesses drove the double digit unit volume increase in this category. The start up of operations in Europe contributed to the revenue and unit sale gains for the quarter. | |||
| Food and processed juice revenue and unit volume increased during the second quarter compared to the same period in 2004. During the second quarter, revenue in this category increased 31.7% to $56.5 million, with unit volume up 13.8%. The revenue and unit volume increases were primarily the result of the growth in our hot fill and juice segments coupled with a strong base in our line of food packages. In addition, a glass to plastic conversion in the dressings segment helped push unit volumes higher. | |||
| Industrial, agricultural and automotive category revenue increased 15.4% to $16.2 million with unit volume essentially flat for the period. Revenue increases were mainly a result of higher raw material prices passed through to customers during the period. | |||
| Other revenue increased 28.6%. The increase in other revenue was primarily due to increased freight and other miscellaneous revenue. |
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $2.6 million to $39.6 million for the quarter ended April 30, 2005. The improvement in gross profit was attributable to higher unit sales volume and improved operating performance in both the U.S. and Brazil. The increase in gross profit was offset by price reductions of approximately $2.4 million implemented to retain and extend customer contracts and meet existing contractual obligations. In addition, gross profit was offset by increased operating costs associated with the start-up of our European operations and our new facility in Louisiana. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue declined to 12.3% from 14.7% for the year ago period.
Our primary raw materials consist of PET and HDPE resins. Although our revenue is affected by fluctuations in resin prices, our gross profit is, in general, unaffected by these fluctuations. In general, except where we have firm pricing, industry practice and contractual arrangements with our customers permit price changes to be passed through to customers. As a result, we have in the past experienced revenue changes without corresponding changes in gross profit. Currently, resin prices have stabilized. We expect resin price reductions to take place in the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2005 increased 13.3% to $22.7 million. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 7.1% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 from 8.0% for the three months ended May 1, 2004. Increases in compensation, benefits, legal, taxes and administrative fees related to the start up of our European operations were the primary factors contributing to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.
25
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $1.8 million to $10.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 as compared to $8.8 million for the three months ended May 1, 2004. The increase in interest expense was attributable to a combination of increased debt levels over the prior year, a decrease in interest earned on interest rate swaps, a decrease in capitalized interest and an increase in interest expense associated with mandatorily redeemable shares of common stock.
Other (Income) and Expense
Other income increased by $0.3 million to $0.4 million for the three-month period ended April 30, 2005. The increase was related to a decrease of $0.7 million in foreign currency exchange rate losses offset by a decrease in interest income and royalty income of $0.4 million.
Income Tax Expense
Provision for income taxes was a $2.4 million expense for the three months ended April 30, 2005 as compared to a $3.0 million expense for the three months ended May 1, 2004. Earnings before taxes were $6.7 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 compared to $8.3 million of earnings for the three months ended May 1, 2004. In second quarters of 2005 and 2004, our effective tax rates were 35.4% and 36.2%, respectively.
Net Earnings
Net earnings decreased $1.0 million from net earnings of $5.3 million for the three months ended May 1, 2004 to net earnings of $4.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005. As previously discussed, start-up costs associated with our European operations and our new facility in Louisiana along with an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses and interest expense, partially offset by an increase in other (income) and expense, were factors which resulted in a reduction in net earnings over the prior period.
Six Months Ended April 30, 2005 Compared to Six Months Ended May 1, 2004
Revenue
Revenue increased 26.0% to $601.4 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 while unit sales increased for the period by 7.6%. All product categories posted revenue gains over the same period in 2004. The increase in revenues was a combination of new product initiatives, consistent performance in our product categories, significant gains in Brazil and higher average resin pricing. Revenue increases were offset partially by price reductions implemented for new business and the extension of current business.
Revenue and unit sales increases and decreases by product category are discussed more specifically below:
| Carbonated and non-carbonated beverage revenue increased 25.2% to $261.3 million during the six-month period ended April 30, 2005. Unit volume increased 4.7% as compared to the same period in 2004. In the U.S., unit volume increased 6.6% as a result of increases in our water (flavor and non-flavored) and carbonated beverage shipments during the period. In Brazil, unit volume was essentially flat, with sales revenue increasing over 50% to $76.3 million due primarily to higher raw material prices, improved pricing conditions and tightened capacity in the Brazilian market. |
26
| Consumer cleaning revenue increased 22.2% to $178.1 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 with unit volume up approximately 10.5%. Several new product and package introductions during the period added to the revenue and unit volume gains in this category. During the first half of 2005, the start up of operations in Europe contributed to the revenue and unit volume gains. | |||
| Our food and processed juice category reported significant increases in both revenue and unit volume for the six months ended April 30, 2005 as compared to the same period of 2004. During the six months ended April 30, 2005, revenue increased 37.5% with unit volume up by 21.1% over the same period in 2004. This performance was the result of significant growth in our hot fill and juice business combined with new product introductions in our other food product lines. | |||
| Industrial, agricultural and automotive category revenue increased 18.1% to $31.3 million with unit sales increasing 2.5% during the first half of 2005. Revenue increases were mainly a result of higher raw material prices passed through to customers during the period. Unit volume increases were driven primarily by the continued shift in the automotive lubricants market from single-quart motor oil packages to multi-quart packages. | |||
| Other revenue increased 31.6%. The increase in other revenue was primarily due to increased freight and other miscellaneous revenue. |
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $18.6 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue improved to 13.0% from 12.5%. The improvement in gross profit was attributable to higher unit sales volume and improved operating performance in both the U.S. and Brazil. In addition, gross profit benefited from a build up of inventory that contributed to favorable absorption of fixed costs as compared to the first half of 2004. The increase in gross profit was offset by price reductions of approximately $6.8 million implemented to retain and extend customer contracts and meet existing contractual obligations. In addition, gross profit was offset by increased operating costs associated with the start-up of our European operations and our new facility in Louisiana.
Our primary raw materials consist of PET and HDPE resins. Although our revenue is affected by fluctuations in resin prices, our gross profit is, in general, unaffected by these fluctuations. In general, except where we have firm pricing, industry practice and contractual arrangements with our customers permit price changes to be passed through to customers. As a result, we have in the past experienced revenue changes without corresponding changes in gross profit. Currently, resin prices have stabilized. We expect resin price reductions to take place in the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 16.1% to $45.8 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses declined to 7.6% for the six months ended April 30, 2005 from 8.3% for the six months ended May 1, 2004. Increases in compensation, benefits, legal, taxes and administrative fees related to the start up of our European operations were the primary factors contributing to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $2.7 million to $20.4 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 as compared to $17.7 million for the six months ended May 1, 2004. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to a decrease in interest earned on interest rate swaps, a decrease in capitalized interest and an
27
increase in interest expense associated with mandatorily redeemable shares of common stock. An increase in debt levels over the prior period contributed to the increase as well.
Other (Income) and Expense
Other income decreased by $1.0 million to a $0.1 million expense for the six months ended April 30, 2005. The decrease was due to decreases in interest income, royalty income and sundry income as well as an increase in foreign currency exchange rate losses.
Income Tax Expense
Provision for income taxes was a $4.0 million expense for the six-month period ended April 30, 2005 as compared to a $1.4 million expense for the six-month period ended May 1, 2004. Earnings before taxes were $11.6 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 compared to $3.1 million of earnings before tax for the six months ended May 1, 2004. The effective rate was 34.5% in the first half of 2005 as compared to 44.8% in the first half of 2004. The effective tax rate for the first half of 2004 was higher because it included a change in estimate for prior year (2003) book and tax differences.
Net Earnings
Net earnings increased $5.9 million from net earnings of $1.7 million for the six months ended May 1, 2004 to net earnings of $7.6 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005. This increase is largely due to increased gross profit generated by additional sales unit volume, new product initiatives and improved operating performance offset by other factors mentioned above.
Financial Condition
We intend to expand our business, both domestically and internationally. We have a significant amount of financing capacity to fund the continued growth of our business. Past and planned expenditures have been used to maintain equipment and expand capacity for revenue growth. Past expenditures were funded with cash flow from operations, bank debt and additional operating and capital leases. Future capital expenditures will be funded in the same manner as past expenditures.
We had positive cash flow from operating activities of $18.1 million, which in part funded our capital expenditures of approximately $35.7 million. In fiscal 2005 and 2006, we expect to incur capital expenditures of approximately $90.0 million and $70.0 million, respectively.
We have three entities in Central Europe, Plastipak Czech Republic, s.r.o., Plastipak Slovakia, s.r.o. and Clean Tech Slovakia, s.r.o. Plastipak Czech Republic, s.r.o. serves as a bottle manufacturing facility. Plastipak Czech Republic, s.r.o. is producing fabric enhancer bottles for a major customer in Prague, Czech Republic. Plastipak Slovakia is serving as our technical and business center for Europe. Plastipak Slovakia has begun providing sales, marketing and administrative services for Central Europe.
In October 2004, Clean Tech Slovakia s.r.o. acquired from the Municipality of Kechnec, Slovakia, approximately 22 acres of land in the Kechnec Industrial Park, located approximately 10 miles outside the city of Kosice. In addition, it received written notice from the Recycling Fund, a business development arm of the federal government of Slovakia, of its award of 100 million Slovak Crowns, approximately U.S. $3.0 million, to be used in accordance with Clean Tech Slovakia s.r.o.s application to the Recycling Fund for its projects in Slovakia. We plan to construct a post-consumer recycling facility and produce preforms for sale in Eastern and Central Europe from this location. It is anticipated that the total initial investment will not exceed $20.0 million.
28
Seasonality
The carbonated soft drink (CSD) and, to a lesser extent, the other beverage portions of our business are highly seasonal, with peak demand during warmer summer months, and reduced demand during the winter. We normally add temporary staff and build inventory of products for our CSD and water customers in anticipation of seasonal demand in the quarter preceding the summer.
Inflation
We use large quantities of plastic resins in manufacturing our products. These resins accounted for a major portion of our cost of goods sold in the six-month period ended April 30, 2005, and are subject to substantial price fluctuations resulting from shortages in supply and changes in the prices of natural gas, crude oil and other petrochemical products from which these resins are produced. We generally enter into multi-year agreements with our resin suppliers, and our purchases of raw materials are subject to market prices and inflation.
Effect of Changes in Exchange Rates
In general, our results of operations are partially affected by changes in foreign exchange rates. We invoice our Brazilian and Argentine customers in the Brazilian Real and Argentine Peso, respectively. A portion of those invoices are pegged to the U.S. exchange rate. As a result, subject to market conditions, a decline in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the Brazilian Real and to a lesser extent the Argentine Peso can have a favorable effect on our profitability. Conversely, an increase in the value of the dollar relative to the Brazilian Real and to a lesser extent the Argentine Peso can have a negative effect on our profitability. In addition, any change in value of the euro as compared to the U.S. dollar may impact start-up costs associated with our new facilities in Central Europe. For the six months ended April 30, 2005, exchange rate fluctuations resulted in a loss of approximately $0.3 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided from operating activities decreased by 52.5% to $18.1 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 as compared to the six months ended May 1, 2004. The decrease in cash was primarily the result of an increase in inventory and deposits for equipment purchases along with a decrease in accounts payable. The increase in inventories was attributable to a combination of seasonal demand and increased raw material costs.
Net cash used in investing activities was $36.3 million and $66.5 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004, respectively. Investing activities consisted primarily of the acquisition of property, plant and equipment for new business, new facilities and the expansion of existing facilities. For the six months ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004, property, plant and equipment acquisitions using cash were $35.7 million and $62.8 million, respectively. During the first half of 2005 and 2004, intangible asset acquisitions to extend customer contracts were $1.0 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $13.3 million and ($0.9) million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004, respectively. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was due to a $19.1 million increase in borrowings over the prior year which was used in part to fund our capital expenditures and other working capital needs. The increase in cash was offset by a $3.7 million termination fee for the settlement of our interest rate swaps and capitalized loan costs of $1.5 million associated with our amended credit agreement.
29
On August 20, 2001 and September 25, 2002, we sold an aggregate total principal amount of $275 million and $50 million, respectively, of 10.75% Senior Notes to qualified institutional buyers. The notes have a maturity date of September 1, 2011, and we have the option to redeem all or a portion of the notes at any time on or after September 1, 2006. Interest under the notes is payable on September 1 and March 1 of each year. The indenture under which the notes were issued places restrictions on our ability to declare or pay dividends, purchase or acquire equity interests of Plastipak, and retire indebtedness that is subordinate to the notes. The notes also have covenants that place restrictions on the incurrence of debt, the issuance of stock, and granting of liens.
The proceeds from the Senior Notes sold on August 20, 2001 were used to pay off existing debt. In fiscal 2002 and 2003, we used the net proceeds from the August 20, 2001 and September 25, 2002 sale of Senior Notes for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures and technology development.
On January 28, 2005, we entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (Fifth Amended Credit Agreement) which allows us to borrow up to $300.0 million, subject to a borrowing base consisting of 85% of eligible domestic accounts receivable, the lesser of 65% of the value of eligible domestic inventory or $60.0 million and 50% of the value of domestic equipment plus 65% of eligible real estate. The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement has a five-year term. Interest under the agreement is payable at 175 to 325 basis points per annum over Eurodollar or at prime rates, as we select. The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of our assets, including pledges of the stock of Plastipak and all of its material foreign subsidiaries. Packaging, Whiteline, Clean Tech, and TABB are the borrowers and guarantors under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement and Plastipak guarantees obligations under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement. As of April 30, 2005, $59.4 million and $18.6 million in letters of credit and borrowings, respectively, were outstanding under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement and we had $222.0 million available for borrowing subject to borrowing base limitations and covenant restrictions.
We entered into the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement for general business needs, including possible repurchases of the Senior Notes and the acquisition of machinery and equipment.
Under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement we are required to calculate EBITDA because covenants in the agreement are tied to ratios based on that measure. For instance, the covenants under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement incorporate EBITDA for the most recent last four fiscal quarters (last twelve months), as a component of the following ratios: debt service ratio (minimum 1.25 to 1), senior secured debt ratio (maximum 3.00 to 1), leverage ratio (maximum 4.85 to 1) and interest coverage ratio (minimum 2.25 to 1). Our ability to incur additional debt is tied to our bank covenants. As of April 30, 2005, we were in compliance with our covenants under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement.
EBITDA should not be considered an alternative measure of operating results or cash flows from operations (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles), but it is a widely accepted financial indicator of a companys ability to incur and service debt. While commonly used, however, EBITDA is not identically calculated by companies presenting EBITDA and is, therefore, not necessarily an accurate means of comparison and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.
30
Our Fifth Amended Credit Agreement defines EBITDA as net earnings (loss) plus income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. In addition, EBITDA is adjusted for certain non-cash items. A reconciliation between net earnings and EBITDA is calculated as follows:

Looking forward, we have the following short-term and medium-term capital needs. Our overall capital expenditure budget in fiscal 2005 is approximately $90.0 million and $70.0 million in 2006, a majority of which is expected to be discretionary capital expenditures. We expect to finance all of our capital expenditures with operating cash flows and to cover any shortfalls with borrowings under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement.
Based on our current level of operations and anticipated cost savings and operating improvements, we believe that cash flow from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement, will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for at least the next few years. As of April 30, 2005, we had approximately $7.0 million in cash and cash equivalents. It is possible, however, that our business will not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that anticipated revenue growth and operating improvements will not be realized or that future borrowings will not be available under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness, or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement or the 10.75% Senior Notes due 2011, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of April 30, 2005, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, other than those disclosed in the preceding tables Contractual Cash Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies
Discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires that management make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in Note A of our annual financial statements. Please refer to Note A of our annual audited financial statements included in the Financial Statements and Supplementary Data section, in our Form 10-K for the year ended October 30, 2004, for a description of our significant accounting policies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an on-going basis, we evaluate estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates, judgments and assumptions, impacting the reported results of operations and financial position of our Company. In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be different from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information.
32
An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made; if different estimates reasonably could have been used; or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur periodically could materially impact the financial statements. The material accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the understanding of our financial position and results of operations that require significant management estimates, judgments and assumptions are discussed below.
Losses on accounts receivable are based upon their current status, historical experience and managements evaluation of existing economic conditions. Significant changes in customer profitability or general economic conditions could have a significant effect on our allowance for doubtful accounts.
Property, plant and equipment represent a significant portion of our total assets. We record property, plant and equipment at cost. Depreciation is computed principally using the straight-line method based upon estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years for machinery and equipment and up to 39 years for buildings. Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided over the terms of the various leases. These estimates require assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets related to customer contracts are tested for impairment periodically and whenever an event occurs that indicates impairment may exist. Future events may cause us to conclude that an impairment associated with our long-lived assets exists. Any losses associated with impaired long-lived assets could have a material impact on our financial results.
Reserve for inventory losses is based upon managements review of inventory, which is classified as either slow moving, obsolete or potentially defective. Changes in product demand and quality issues may require us to increase our reserves.
Plastipak is self-insured for health costs and workers compensation up to a certain stop loss level. The estimated liability is based upon review by management and an independent insurance consultant of claims filed and claims incurred but not reported. An increase in the level of claims incurred could have a significant impact on our estimated liability of insurance costs and results of operations.
Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements
For information regarding the impact of new accounting pronouncements, see Note C to the unaudited consolidated financial statements within Item 1 of this report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign Exchange Contracts
At April 30, 2005 we had no material foreign exchange contracts. We do not enter into foreign exchange contracts for trading or speculative purposes.
Short-Term and Long-Term Debt
We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through our borrowing activities. Our policy has been to utilize United States dollar denominated borrowings to fund our working capital and investment needs. Short-term debt, if required, is used to meet working capital requirements, while long-term debt is generally used to finance long-term investments. There is inherent rollover risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and our future financing requirements.
33
On March 11, 2003, we entered into two interest rate swap agreements for an 8-year period ending September 1, 2011. In connection with the Senior Notes, we exchanged fixed rate interest of 10.75% for variable rate interest. The interest rate swap agreements have notional amounts of $50.0 million each. The variable rates are equal to six month LIBOR plus 6.46% and 6.66%, respectively; except for the initial period from March 11, 2003 to September 1, 2003, which was determined via linear interpolation. On February 18, 2005 pursuant to an agreement between the Company and the bank to terminate the interest rate swap agreements, the Company paid the bank $3,245,000.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report, have concluded that as of such date the disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective in ensuring that material information relating to Plastipak would be made known to them by others in the company.
There were no significant changes in internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect Plastipaks disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date of their evaluation, nor were there any material weaknesses in Plastipaks internal controls. As a result, no corrective actions were required or undertaken. The Company continues to evaluate internal controls and procedures and the effectiveness of those controls. Plastipak is currently in the process of documenting internal controls over financial reporting in an effort to be in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Rule 404 by the end of fiscal 2006.
