COMPUTER TASK GROUP, INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect,
in the opinion of the management of Computer Task Group, Incorporated ("CTG" or
"the Company"), all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the
condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows
for the periods presented. Certain amounts in the prior period's condensed
consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the
Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC rules
and regulations. Management believes that the information and disclosures
provided herein are adequate to present fairly the condensed consolidated
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. It is
suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
3. DISPOSITION OF OPERATIONS
During the first quarter of 2004, the Company disposed of its Dutch
operating subsidiary, CTG Nederland B.V., in a transaction that sold the stock
and transferred the unit's business, staff, and lease and equipment obligations
to the unit's management team. The contractual effective date of the disposition
was January 1, 2004, and the transaction has been treated as discontinued
operations in these condensed consolidated financial statements. This unit had
previously been included in the financial results of the Company's European
operations.
The loss from discontinued operations resulting from this divestiture
totaled approximately $4.4 in the first two quarters of 2004, with approximately
$4.3 million of that loss incurred in the first quarter of 2004. The loss
includes a cumulative loss on disposal of approximately $3.8 million, and
approximately $0.5 million from a foreign currency adjustment which has
previously been reported as a direct charge to shareholders' equity. Although
the divestiture was effective January 1, 2004, if the Company had included the
revenues and losses from this unit in its first quarter 2004 operating results
rather than in the loss on disposal of $3.7 million, revenues would have been
approximately $1.8 higher and the income before income taxes would have been
approximately $0.5 million lower. The assets divested in this transaction
totaled approximately $2.5 million, including $2.2 million of current assets
(primarily accounts receivable of $1.6 million), and non-current assets of $0.3
million consisting of the net value of property and equipment. The liabilities
divested in the transaction totaled approximately $0.9 million of current
liabilities.

6. INCOME TAXES
The estimated effective tax rate (ETR) used to calculate the provision for
income taxes from continuing operations was 25.2% in 2004 and 42.0% in 2003. The
ETR is recalculated quarterly based upon current assumptions relating to the
full years estimated operating results, and various tax related items. The
decrease in the rate in 2004 as compared to 2003 is due to the Company utilizing
previously recorded net operating loss tax benefits of approximately $0.3
million for its European operations that had been fully offset by a valuation
allowance. Additionally, the decrease in the ETR is also due to a release of
approximately $0.4 million of previously recorded tax liabilities due to tax
legislation recently enacted in the Netherlands. Without these adjustments to
the ETR, the rate would have been approximately 40% in 2004.
7. DEBT
The Company's current revolving credit agreement (Agreement) allows the
Company to borrow up to $45 million. The Agreement is due in May 2005. The
Agreement has interest rates ranging from 25 to 200 basis points over the prime
rate and 125 to 300 basis points over Libor, and provides certain of the
Company's assets as security for outstanding borrowings. The Company is required
to meet certain financial covenants in order to maintain borrowings under the
Agreement, pay dividends, and make acquisitions. At July 2, 2004, and during
2004, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.
At July 2, 2004, there was a total of $6.6 million outstanding under this
Agreement. As the Agreement is due in May 2005, the Company has recorded this
outstanding balance at July 2, 2004 as a current portion of long-term debt, and
included the balance in current liabilities. Previously, the outstanding balance
had been recorded as long-term debt and recorded in non-current liabilities. The
Company is currently in the process of negotiating with a number of financial
institutions for a new, long-term agreement. Upon signing a new agreement, the
Company expects to again record the outstanding amount under the new agreement
as long-term debt.
8. DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND OTHER BENEFITS
DEFERRED COMPENSATION BENEFITS
The Company maintains a non-qualified defined-benefit Executive
Supplemental Benefit Plan (ESBP) that provides one current and certain former
key executives with deferred compensation benefits, based on years of service
and base compensation, payable during retirement. The plan was amended as of
November 30, 1994, to freeze benefits for participants at that time.
Net periodic pension cost for the ESBP is as follows:

The Company also maintains a contributory defined-benefit plan for its
former employees located in the Netherlands (NDBP). Benefits paid are a function
of a percentage of career average pay. The Plan was curtailed for additional
contributions in January 2003, which resulted in the recording of a gain of $0.2
million in the first quarter of 2003.
Net periodic pension benefit for the NDBP is as follows:

401(k) PROFIT-SHARING RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company maintains a contributory 401(k) profit-sharing retirement plan
covering substantially all U.S. employees. Company contributions, which are
discretionary, consist of cash, and may include the Company's stock, were funded
and charged to operations in the amounts of $0.4 million in both the quarters
ended July 2, 2004 and June 27, 2003. The Company's contributions for the two
quarters ended July 2, 2004 and June 27, 2003 was $0.9 million and $1.0 million,
respectively.
OTHER RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company maintains various retirement plans other than the NDBP
discussed above, covering substantially all of the remaining European employees.
Company contributions charged to operations were $37,000 and $0.1 million in the
quarters ended July 2, 2004 and June 27, 2003, respectively, and $0.1 million
and $0.2 million, respectively, for the two quarters ended July 2, 2004 and June
27, 2003.
OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

9. STOCK-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for its stock-based employee compensation plans in
accordance with the provisions of FAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," and FAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -
Transition and Disclosure," which allows entities to continue to apply the
recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related
interpretations. As such, no stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected
in the net income or loss of the Company for the periods presented in these
condensed consolidated financial statements as all options granted by the
Company had an exercise price that was equal to or greater than the underlying
common stock at the date of grant.
The following table details the effect on net income (loss) and basic and
diluted net income (loss) per share as if the Company had adopted the fair value
recognition provisions of FAS No. 123 as they apply to stock-based employee
compensation:

10. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS PRONOUNCEMENTS
During January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation
of Variable Interest Entities," and a revision of this Interpretation in
December 2003. These Interpretations of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51,
"Consolidated Financial Statements," address the consolidation by business
enterprises of certain variable interest entities. If applicable, the provisions
of these Interpretations were effective for interim periods beginning after June
15, 2003. The Company has reviewed the provisions of these Interpretations and
determined that they did not have any effect on its financial position or
results of operations for the period ended July 2, 2004.
In December 2003, the FASB issued FAS No. 132 (revised 2003), "Employers'
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post Retirement Benefits." This revision of
FAS No. 132 requires additional quarterly disclosures about the net periodic
benefit costs of defined benefit plans and other defined benefit postretirement
plans, and other general disclosures. The provisions of the statement related to
interim period disclosures are effective for interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2003. The Company has included these additional required
disclosures, as applicable, in the notes to its condensed consolidated financial
statements under note 6, "Deferred Compensation and Other Benefits."
During December 2003, the SEC published Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104
(SAB 104). This staff accounting bulletin revises or rescinds portions of the
interpretive guidance previously published relating to revenue recognition. The
Company has reviewed the interpretations as documented in SAB 104 and determined
that its current accounting for revenue recognition activities is consistent
with these interpretations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE QUARTER AND TWO QUARTERS ENDED JULY 2, 2004
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements included in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this document
that do not relate to present or historical conditions are "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Additional oral or written forward-looking statements may be made by
the Company from time to time, and such statements may be included in documents
that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause results or outcomes
to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements relating
to the Company's plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, and intentions and
are intended to be made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "believes," "forecasts,"
"intends," "possible," "expects," "estimates," "anticipates," or "plans" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Several important factors should be taken into consideration when
reviewing the operational results of the Company either on a quarterly or annual
basis. These include:
THE ANTICIPATED DEMAND FOR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) SERVICES
There was a steady decline in demand in the technology services sector
from 2000-2003 as a recession in the technology industry has negatively affected
spending for information technology services. While the Company believes that
demand has begun to increase in 2004, additional declines in spending for IT
services later in 2004 and in future years may continue to adversely affect the
Company's operating results in the future.
THE AVAILABILITY OF QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL STAFF
The Company currently actively competes with other IT services providers
for qualified professional staff. The availability, or lack thereof, of
qualified professional staff may affect the Company's ability to provide
services and meet the needs of its customers in the future. An inability to
fulfill customer requirements due to a lack of available qualified staff may
adversely impact the operations of the Company in the future.
RATE AND WAGE INFLATION OR DEFLATION
While the rates at which the Company billed its customers for its services
stabilized in the later part of 2003, there had been a general decline in these
rates over recent years as a result of the technology recession mentioned above.
The Company did experience a reduction in the rates at which it bills its
customers for its services for one significant customer in the first half of
2004. Additionally, the Company actively competes against many other companies
for business with new and existing clients. A continuation of the recession and
competitive pressures may lead to a further decline in the rates that the
Company bills its customers for its services, which may adversely effect the
Company's operating results in the future.
OPERATIONS
The Company operates in one industry segment, providing IT services to its
clients. The services provided typically encompass the IT business solution life
cycle, including phases for planning, developing, implementing, managing, and
ultimately maintaining the IT solution. A typical customer is an organization
with large, complex information and data processing requirements. The Company
promotes a portion of its services through four vertical market focus areas:
Technology Service Providers, Financial Services, HealthCare, and Life Sciences.
CTG provides three primary services to all of the markets that it serves. These
services include IT Staffing, Application Management Outsourcing, and IT
Solutions.
10
DISPOSITION OF OPERATIONS
During the first quarter of 2004, the Company disposed of its Dutch
operating subsidiary, CTG Nederland B.V., in a transaction that sold the stock
and transferred the unit's business, staff, and lease and equipment obligations
to the unit's management team. The contractual effective date of the disposition
was January 1, 2004, and the transaction has been treated as discontinued
operations in these condensed consolidated financial statements. This unit had
previously been included in the financial results of the Company's European
operations.
The loss from discontinued operations resulting from this divestiture
totaled approximately $4.4 in the first two quarters of 2004, with approximately
$4.3 million of that loss incurred in the first quarter of 2004. The loss
includes a cumulative loss on disposal of approximately $3.8 million, and
approximately $0.5 million from a foreign currency adjustment which has
previously been reported as a direct charge to shareholders' equity. Although
the divestiture was effective January 1, 2004, if the Company had included the
revenues and losses from this unit in its first quarter 2004 operating results
rather than in the loss on disposal of $3.7 million, revenues would have been
approximately $1.8 higher and the income before income taxes would have been
approximately $0.5 million lower. The assets divested in this transaction
totaled approximately $2.5 million, including $2.2 million of current assets
(primarily accounts receivable of $1.6 million), and non-current assets of $0.3
million consisting of the net value of property and equipment. The liabilities
divested in the transaction totaled approximately $0.9 million of current
liabilities.

===== ========= ===== =========
In the second quarter of 2004, the Company recorded revenue of $59.0
million, a decrease of 5.4% compared to revenue of $62.4 million recorded in the
second quarter of 2003. Revenues from the Company's North American operations
totaled $48.7 million in the second quarter of 2004, a decrease of 10.0% when
compared to 2003 second quarter revenue of $54.1 million. Revenues from the
Company's European operations in the second quarter of 2004 totaled $10.3
million, an increase of 24.1% when compared to the second quarter 2003 revenue
of $8.3 million. The European revenue represented 17.5% and 13.3% of second
quarter 2004 and 2003 consolidated revenue, respectively. The company's revenue
includes reimbursable expenses billed to customers. These expenses totaled $2.0
million and $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively.
For the first half of 2004, the Company recorded revenue of $120.5
million, a decrease of 3.2% compared to revenue of $124.5 recorded in the first
half of 2003. Revenues from the Company's North American operations totaled
$100.0 million in the 2004 year-to-date period, as compared to $108.3 million in
the comparable 2003 period. The Company's European operations accounted for
$20.5 million or 17.0% of year-to-date 2004 consolidated revenue, as compared to
$16.2 million or 13.0% in the comparable 2003 period. Reimbursable expenses
billed to customers totaled $3.6 million and $3.4 million in the year-to-date
periods in 2004 and 2003, respectively.
In North America, the revenue decrease is primarily a result of the
ongoing recession in technology related investments which has had an overall
negative effect on customer spending for information technology services.
Additionally, although the Company has seen an increase in demand for the IT
staffing services it provides to its customers in late 2003 and into the first
half of 2004, the Company experienced an isolated incident whereas a significant
customer insisted on a reduction in the rates at which they are billed for the
services provided. This reduction in rates not only led to reduced revenues
being recorded, but to an increase in the turnover of the Company's technical
staff in the second quarter of 2004. Accordingly, the general weakness in demand
for the non-strategic staffing services offered by the Company, the bill rate
reduction, and the high level of turnover more than offset the increase in
demand for staffing services, and resulted in the overall decrease in revenue in
the second quarter and year-over-year.
The significant increase in revenue in the Company's European operations
in 2004 as compared to 2003 was in large part due to the strength of the
currencies of Belgium, the United Kingdom, and Luxembourg, the countries in
which the Company's European subsidiaries operate. In Belgium and Luxembourg,
the functional currency is the Euro, while in the United Kingdom, the functional
currency is the British pound. If there had been no change in these foreign
currency exchange rates from the second quarter 2003 to 2004, European and total
consolidated revenues in the second quarter of 2004 would have been $1.2 million
lower. Without any exchange gains in all of 2004 in Europe, total European
revenue would have $2.7 million lower, or $17.8 million in total, than the $20.5
million reported in the 2004 year-to-date period.
12
In November 2003, the Company signed a contract with International
Business Machines (IBM) for one year as one of IBM's national technical service
providers for the United States. IBM has the right to extend the contract for
three additional one-year periods. In the second quarter of 2004, IBM was the
Company's largest customer, accounting for $13.0 million or 22.0% of total
revenue as compared to $13.1 million or 21.0% of second quarter 2003 revenue.
For the 2004 year-to-date period, revenues from IBM were $27.1 million or 22.5%
of consolidated revenue as compared to $25.8 million or 20.7% of consolidated
2003 revenues. The Company expects to continue to derive a significant portion
of its revenue from IBM in the remainder of 2004 and in future years. While a
decline in revenue from IBM would have a negative effect on the Company's
revenues and profits, the Company believes a simultaneous loss of all IBM
business is unlikely to occur due to the diversity of the projects performed for
IBM and the number of locations and divisions involved.
Direct costs, defined as costs for billable staff including billable
out-of-pocket expenses, were 73.2% of revenue in the second quarter of 2004 as
compared to 72.5% of second quarter 2003 revenue, and 73.1% of revenue in both
the 2004 and 2003 year-to-date periods. The increase in direct costs as a
percentage of revenue in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to second
quarter of 2003 is primarily due to an investment in training in 2004. Direct
costs year-over-year remained unchanged as improved utilization of the Company's
technical staff during 2004 offset the second quarter investment in training.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were 25.4% of revenue
in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to 24.6% of revenue in the second
quarter of 2003, and 25.0% in the 2004 year-to-date period as compared to 24.8%
in the 2003 year-to-date period. The slight increase in percentage of SG&A
expense to total revenues year-over-year is due to the lower revenues in the
second quarter of 2004 and in the 2004 year-to-date period. Although the
percentages have increased in 2004, total SG&A expenses have decreased from 2003
as the Company continues to actively manage its cost structure in response to
the ongoing recession in technology related investments mentioned above, which
has caused overall Company revenue to decrease.
Operating income was 1.4% of revenue in the second quarter of 2004 as
compared to 2.9% of revenue in the second quarter of 2003, and 1.9% in the 2004
year-to-date period as compared to 2.1% in the 2003 year-to-date period.
Operating income from North American operations was $0.6 million and $1.9
million in the second quarter of 2004 and year-to-date period, respectively,
while European operations recorded operating income of $0.2 million and $0.3
million, respectively, in such periods.
Interest and other expense, net was 0.3% of revenue in the 2004
year-to-date period and 0.5% in the corresponding 2003 period. The decrease as a
percentage of revenue from 2003 to 2004 is primarily due to lower average
outstanding indebtedness balances in 2004. The estimated effective tax rate
(ETR) used to calculate the provision for income taxes from continuing
operations was 25.2% in 2004 and 42.0% in 2003. The ETR is recalculated
quarterly based upon current assumptions relating to the full years estimated
operating results, and various tax related items. The decrease in the rate in
2004 as compared to 2003 is due to the Company utilizing previously recorded net
operating loss tax benefits of approximately $0.3 million for its European
operations that had been fully offset by a valuation allowance. Additionally,
the decrease in the ETR is also due to a release of approximately $0.4 million
of previously recorded tax liabilities due to tax legislation recently enacted
in the Netherlands. Without these adjustments to the ETR, the rate would have
been approximately 40% in 2004.
Net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2004 was
1.1% of revenue or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to net income of 1.3% of
revenue or $0.05 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2003, and 1.2% of
revenue or $0.08 per diluted share in all of 2004 as compared to net income of
0.9% of revenue or $0.07 per diluted share in the comparable 2003 period.
Diluted earnings per share were calculated using 17.2 million and 16.7 million
equivalent shares outstanding in all 2004 and 2003 periods, respectively. The
increase in equivalent shares outstanding in 2004 is due to an increase in the
Company's stock price which resulted in a greater dilutive effect of outstanding
stock options.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Goodwill Valuation - With the required adoption of FAS No. 142 in 2002,
CTG recorded a charge of $37.0 million, representing the cumulative effect of
the change in accounting principle. The remaining goodwill balance of $35.7
million, relating to the company's North American operations, will be evaluated
annually or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate impairment may
exist. These evaluations will be based on estimates and assumptions that may
analyze the appraised value of similar transactions from which the goodwill
arose, the appraised value of similar companies, or estimates of future
discounted cash flows. The estimates and assumptions on which the Company's
evaluations are based necessarily involve judgments and are based on currently
available information, any of which could prove wrong or inaccurate when made,
or become wrong or inaccurate as a result of subsequent events.
As of both January 1, 2003 and 2004, the Company completed its annual
valuation of the business unit to which the Company's goodwill relates. This
valuation indicated that the estimated fair value of the business unit exceeded
the carrying value of this unit at both January 1, 2003 and 2004. Additionally,
there are no facts or circumstances that arose during the second quarter of 2004
that led management to believe the goodwill may be impaired. Accordingly, the
Company believes no additional impairment was required to be recorded in its
condensed consolidated financial results. Changes in future valuations, however,
could lead to additional impairment charges.
Income Taxes - At July 2, 2004, the Company had approximately $5.6 million
of current and non-current net deferred tax assets recorded on its balance
sheet. The changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities from year to year, and
quarter to quarter, are determined based upon the changes in differences between
the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the
basis of assets and liabilities for tax purposes, as measured by the enacted tax
rates when these differences are estimated to reverse. The Company has made
certain assumptions regarding the timing of the reversal of these assets and
liabilities, and whether taxable operating income in future periods will be
sufficient to recognize all or a part of any gross deferred tax asset of the
Company.
At July 2, 2004, the Company has a deferred tax asset resulting from the
net operating loss in The Netherlands of approximately $4.1 million. The Company
also has net operating loss benefits of approximately $0.9 million in various
other countries where it does business. Management of the Company has analyzed
each country's tax position and determined that it is unclear whether
approximately $3.8 million of this asset of $5.0 million will be realized at any
point in the future. Accordingly, at July 2, 2004, the Company has offset the
asset with a valuation allowance totaling $3.8 million. The valuation allowance
was reduced by approximately $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2004 due to
the Company utilizing recorded net operating loss benefits of approximately $0.3
million for its European operations. In the future, the asset, and its potential
realizability, will be evaluated each quarter to determine if any additional
portion of the valuation allowance should be reversed. Any additional reversal
of this valuation allowance in the future will result in a reduction of the
Company's effective tax rate. The $0.3 million reduction in the valuation
allowance in the second quarter of 2004 resulted in a reduction in the ETR for
2004 of approximately 5.6%. Any additional 1% decrease in the ETR would have
equaled $19,000 of additional net income for the first two quarters of 2004.
The Company has also made a number of estimates and assumptions relating
to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial
statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the SEC). Such estimates primarily relate to allowances for doubtful
accounts receivable, investment valuation, legal matters, and estimates of
progress toward completion and direct profit or loss on fixed-price contracts.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.
14
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Cash used by operating activities was $(5.9) million through the first two
quarters of 2004. Net income from continuing operations totaled $1.4 million,
while other non-cash adjustments, primarily consisting of depreciation expense
offset by deferred income taxes totaled $0.8 million. Additionally, accounts
receivable increased by $4.1 million as compared to December 31, 2003 primarily
due to the timing of certain billings and the collection of outstanding balances
in the second quarter of 2004, which resulted in an increase in days sales
outstanding to 68 days from 62 days at December 31, 2003. Income taxes decreased
$2.6 million primarily due to the receipt of approximately $1.8 million of tax
refunds, and taxes payable on current year income. Accounts payable decreased
$1.7 million primarily due to the timing of certain payments near quarter-end.
Accrued compensation decreased $3.1 million due to the timing of the U.S.
bi-weekly payroll. As a result of the Company disposing of its Dutch operating
subsidiary, CTG Nederland B.V. in the first quarter of 2004, the Company expects
to incur approximately $0.3 million of cash outflows in the remainder of 2004 to
satisfy obligations related to transaction costs for the disposition.
Investing activities used $1.0 million through the first two quarters of
2004, which represented the additions to property and equipment. The Company has
no significant commitments for capital expenditures at July 2, 2004.
Financing activities provided $6.8 million of cash through the first two
quarters of 2004. The Company's current revolving credit agreement (Agreement)
allows the Company to borrow up to $45 million. The Agreement is due in May
2005. The Agreement has interest rates ranging from 25 to 200 basis points over
the prime rate and 125 to 300 basis points over Libor, and provides certain of
the Company's assets as security for outstanding borrowings. The Company is
required to meet certain financial covenants in order to maintain borrowings
under the Agreement, pay dividends, and make acquisitions. At July 2, 2004, and
during 2004, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.
At July 2, 2004, there was a total of $6.6 million outstanding under this
Agreement, up from $0 at December 31, 2003. The Company borrows or repays this
revolving debt as needed based upon its working capital obligations, including
the timing of the U.S. bi-weekly payroll. Daily average borrowings under this
agreement for the first two quarters of 2004 were $8.6 million. As the Agreement
is due in May 2005, the Company has recorded this outstanding balance at July 2,
2004 as a current portion of long-term debt, and included the balance in current
liabilities. Previously, the outstanding balance had been recorded as long-term
debt and recorded in non-current liabilities. The Company is currently in the
process of negotiating with a number of financial institutions for a new,
long-term agreement. Upon signing a new agreement, the Company expects to again
record the outstanding amount under the new agreement as long-term debt.
The Company also received approximately $0.2 million from employees for
stock purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and other stock plans.
The Company is authorized to repurchase a total of 3.4 million shares of
its common stock for treasury and the Company's stock trusts. At July 2, 2004,
approximately 3.2 million shares have been repurchased under the authorizations,
leaving 0.2 million shares authorized for future purchases. No share purchases
were made in 2004.
At July 2, 2004, consolidated shareholders' equity totaled $53.8 million,
which is a decrease of $(2.3) million from December 31, 2003. The decrease is
primarily due to a net loss of $(2.9) million, offset by the foreign currency
adjustment of approximately $0.4 million primarily resulting from the sale of
the Company's Dutch operations which had previously been reported as a direct
charge to shareholders' equity.
The Company believes existing internally available funds, cash potentially
generated by operations, and available borrowings under the Company's revolving
line of credit totaling approximately $38.1 million at July 2, 2004 will be
sufficient to meet foreseeable working capital, capital expenditure, and
possible stock repurchases, and to allow for future internal growth and
expansion.
The Company did not have any related party or off-balance sheet
arrangements or transactions in either the first two quarters of 2004 or 2003.
15
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company does not have any off balance sheet market risk sensitive
instruments for which disclosure is required. Total long-term revolving debt
outstanding at the end of the quarter totaled approximately $6.6 million. The
Company borrows or repays this revolving debt as needed based upon its working
capital obligations, including the timing of the U.S. bi-weekly payroll. Daily
average borrowings under this agreement for the first two quarters of 2004 were
$8.6 million. Accordingly, a 1% increase or decrease in interest rates would
increase or decrease quarterly interest expense by approximately $22,000.
For the most part, prior to 2003, the Company had not been subject to
material effects from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. However,
throughout 2003, there was a significant strengthening of the currencies of
Belgium, the United Kingdom, and Luxembourg, the countries in which the
Company's European subsidiaries operate. In Belgium and Luxembourg, the
functional currency is the Euro, while in the United Kingdom, the functional
currency is the British pound. If there had been no change in these foreign
currency exchange rates for the year-to-date 2003 period compared to the
year-to-date 2004 period, European and total consolidated revenues for 2004
would have been $2.7 million lower than the $120.5 million reported. Without
these exchange gains in Europe, total European revenue would have increased $1.6
million in 2004 rather than the $4.3 million reported when compared to the
comparable 2003 period. The Company has historically not used any market risk
sensitive instruments to hedge its foreign currency exchange risk.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Based upon an evaluation completed as of the end of the period covered by
this quarterly report with the SEC, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures are effective for gathering and disclosing information as required
for reports filed under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. There have been
no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors
that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of this
evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
The Company's disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls
provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that all deficiencies in design
or operation of these control systems, or all instances of errors or fraud, will
be prevented or detected. These control systems are designed to provide
reasonable assurance of achieving the goals of these systems in light of our
resources and nature of our business operations. These control systems remain
subject to risks of human error and the risk that controls can be circumvented
for wrongful purposes by one or more individuals in management or non-management
positions.
