NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except per share amounts)

1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

In addition, some of the company’s statements in this Form 10-Q report may be considered forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly impact expected results. A discussion of these risks and uncertainties is contained in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

The company has reclassified the presentation of the cash flow statement for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to conform to the current-year presentation.

2. STOCK OPTION PLANS

Under the 1991 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (1991 Plan), the company has granted stock options which are outstanding as of March 31, 2005. The company applies the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, in accounting for stock options granted under the 1991 Plan. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the 1991 Plan 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 Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions for 2005 and 2004, respectively: risk-free interest rate of 3.6 and 3.0 percent; dividend yield of 1.4 and 1.6 percent; volatility of 30 and 39 percent; and average expected lives of six years for options granted to management and four years for options granted to executive management and nonemployee directors.

4. INVENTORIES

Domestic inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market applied on a first-in, first-out basis, and international inventories are valued using the average cost method. At each reporting period, the company regularly identifies and writes down its excess or obsolete inventory to its net realizable value based on forecasted usage, orders and inventory aging. With the development of new products, the company also rationalizes its product offerings and will write down discontinued product to the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Major classes of inventories are summarized as follows:

                 
    March 31, 2005
  December 31, 2004
Finished goods
  $ 115,744     $ 92,806

6. BENEFIT PLANS

The company has several pension plans covering substantially all United States employees. Plans covering salaried employees provide pension benefits that are based on the employee’s compensation during the 10 years before retirement. The company’s funding policy for salaried plans is to contribute annually if required at an actuarially determined rate. Plans covering hourly employees and union members generally provide benefits of stated amounts for each year of service. The company’s funding policy for hourly plans is to make at least the minimum annual contributions required by applicable regulations. Employees of the company’s operations in countries outside of the United States participate to varying degrees in local pension plans, which in the aggregate are not significant.

In addition to providing pension benefits, the company provides healthcare benefits (referred to as Other Benefits) for certain retired employees. Eligible employees may be entitled to these benefits based upon years of service with the company, age at retirement and collective bargaining agreements. Currently, the company has made no commitments to increase these benefits for existing retirees or for employees who may become eligible for these benefits in the future. As of September 30, 2004, the company eliminated life insurance coverage for its retirees. Currently, there are no plan assets and the company funds the benefits as the claims are paid.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. Also, SFAS No. 123(R) provides significant additional guidance regarding the valuation of employee stock options. While SFAS No. 123(R) does not require the use of a specific option-pricing model; it does indicate that lattice models usually will provide a better estimate of fair value of an employee stock option. The company currently prepares the pro forma disclosures required under SFAS No. 123 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. On April 14, 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced a deferral of the effective date of FAS 123(R) for calendar year companies until the beginning of 2006, however, early adoption is permitted. The company has not decided whether it will implement this standard early or wait until January 1, 2006.

As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using the APB Opinion No. 25 intrinsic-value method and, as such, generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options because options granted equal fair market value on date of grant. Accordingly, the adoption of the SFAS No. 123(R) fair value method will affect the company’s results of operations. The impact of adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on future net income and earnings per share has not yet been determined. However, had the company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS No. 123 as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share in Note 2. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current accounting guidance. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after adoption. The company cannot estimate what those amounts will be in the future because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options.

8. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The company’s segments are comprised of its three main sales channels: Diebold North America (DNA), Diebold International (DI) and Election Systems (ES). These sales channels are evaluated based on revenue from customers and operating profit contribution to the total corporation. The reconciliation between segment information and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is disclosed. Revenue summaries by geographic area and product and service solutions are also disclosed. All income and expense items below operating profit are not allocated to the segments and are not disclosed.

The DNA segment sells and services financial and retail systems in the United States and Canada. The DI segment sells and services financial and retail systems over the remainder of the globe. The ES segment includes the operating results of Diebold Election Systems, Inc. and the voting-related business in Brazil. Each of the sales channels buys the goods it sells from the company’s manufacturing plants through intercompany sales that are eliminated in consolidation, and intersegment revenue is not significant. Each year, intercompany pricing is agreed upon, which drives sales channel operating profit contribution. As permitted under SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, certain information not routinely used in the management of these segments, information not allocated back to the segments or information that is impractical to report is not shown.

9. GUARANTEES AND PRODUCT WARRANTIES

The company has applied the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, to its agreements that contain guarantees or indemnification clauses. These requirements expand those required by FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, by requiring a guarantor to disclose certain types of guarantees and recognized liabilities in certain instances, even if the likelihood of requiring the guarantor’s performance is remote. The following is a description of arrangements in effect as of March 31, 2005 in which the company is the guarantor.

In connection with the construction of two of its manufacturing facilities, the company guaranteed repayment of principal and interest on a total of $13,300 variable rate industrial development revenue bonds by obtaining letters of credit. The bonds were issued with a 20-year original term and are scheduled to mature in 2017. Any default, as defined in the agreements, would obligate the company for the full amount of the outstanding bonds through maturity. At March 31, 2005, the carrying value of the liability was $13,300 and is included in long-term liabilities.

The company provides its global operations guarantees and standby letters of credit through various financial institutions to suppliers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers. If the company is not able to make payment, the suppliers, regulatory agencies and insurance providers may draw on the pertinent bank. As of March 31, 2005, the maximum future payment obligations relative to these various guarantees totaled $39,719, of which $18,541 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, and no associated liability was recorded.

The company provides its customers a standard manufacturer’s warranty and records, at the time of the sale, a corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. Estimated future obligations due to warranty claims are based upon historical factors such as labor rates, average repair time, travel time, number of service calls per machine and cost of replacement parts. Changes in the company’s warranty liability balance are illustrated in the following table:

10. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the first quarter of 2005, the company entered into a restructuring plan for its manufacturing and service operations, primarily in Western Europe, to remove its excess capacity. Total pretax costs to be incurred in the plan are anticipated to be in the range of $9,000 to $12,000, of which $7,300 ($4,906 after tax or $0.07 per diluted share) was expensed for the period ended March 31, 2005 resulting in an accrual of $5,400 as of March 31, 2005. The restructuring charges were incurred as follows: $6,800 against product cost of sales; $400 against service cost of sales and $100 against general and administrative costs. These restructuring charges were incurred in the following segments: $6,900 within DI and $400 within DNA.

The actions taken occurred during the first quarter of 2005 with the associated expenses expected to be incurred through December of 2005. The charge was comprised primarily of severance and other employee costs associated with staff reductions. Staff reductions resulted in 90 involuntary employee terminations.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 27, 2005, the company amended its credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The credit facility borrowing limit remains the same at $200,000 and 150,000 euros ($193,088). However, the company was given the ability to add additional borrowing capacity to the facility of $150,000 if the company chooses to do so. The term of the amendment was increased from one year to five years expiring on April 27, 2010. All covenants remain the same.

On May 2, 2005, the company announced the acquisition of TASC Security. TASC Security is a global leader in electronic security solutions headquartered in London, England with regional offices in Amsterdam, Netherlands; Tokyo, Japan; San Francisco, USA; Dublin, Ireland; Leeds, England; and Melbourne and Sydney, Australia; along with a network of offices in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific. TASC Security was purchased for approximately $21,800, including the payoff of certain debt arrangements, and will be integrated within the company’s Electronic Security and Currency Systems Group.

OVERVIEW

Over 145 years ago, Diebold went into the business of making strong, reliable safes. Diebold, Incorporated has a long tradition of safeguarding assets and protecting investments. Today, the company is a global leader in providing integrated self-service delivery systems, security and services to customers within the financial, government, education and retail sectors. In 2003, the company introduced Opteva, a new ATM line within the financial self-service market that provides a higher level of security, convenience and reliability. The new line is powered by Agilis, which is a software platform for financial self-service equipment that was developed by the company in 2002. The combination of Opteva and Agilis provides the ability for financial institutions to customize solutions to meet their consumers’ demands and positively affect equipment performance, while providing a safer ATM. The Agilis software platform gives customers the ability to run the same software across their entire network, which helps contain costs and improve financial self-service equipment availability. The new award-winning generation of financial self-service solutions was developed to deter or discourage ATM fraud. Security features were engineered into the design, including consumer awareness mirrors to discourage shoulder surfing and provide consumers with increased security during ATM transactions. Opteva also includes PIN-pad positioning that helps maintain consumer security, a recessed fascia design, card reader technology with a jitter mechanism, an optional ink-dye system and an envelope depository that is designed to resist trapping. The company’s software includes the industry’s most advanced ATM protection against viruses, worms and other cyber security threats. Diebold is at the forefront in protecting ATMs from threats even before patches are developed and made available. The company established its own Global Security Task Force to collect, analyze, clarify and disseminate news and information about ATM fraud and security. The group includes associates from various departments around the world. These associates work to reduce fraud and to improve security for the industry.

As a result of the company’s continued focus to remain a leader in technology, service and security, significant growth in product revenue was attributable to favorable reaction by the financial sector to this new generation of financial self-service solutions. In addition to the advances in the company’s product line, the company also made a couple of strategic domestic acquisitions during 2004, which increased its presence in the security market.

The election systems business continues to be a challenge for the company, as lower revenue and the settlement of the civil action in California with the state of California and Alameda County in 2004 had a significant negative impact on margin and earnings per share. The company continues to face a variety of challenges and opportunities in responding to customer needs within the election systems market. A number of individuals and groups have raised challenges in the media and elsewhere, including legal challenges, about the reliability and security of the company’s election systems products and services. The parties making these challenges oppose the use of technology in the electoral process generally and, specifically, have filed lawsuits and taken other actions to publicize what they view as significant flaws in the company’s election management software and firmware. These efforts have adversely affected some of the company’s customer relations with its election systems customers. Also, the election systems market continues to evolve. Funding is being provided by the federal government and utilized by the states; however, the guidelines and rules governing the election software and hardware have not yet been fully established. As a result, various states and industry experts are interpreting the election requirements differently. Recent changes in the laws under which election-related products must be certified by a number of states have lengthened the certification process and, in some cases, required changes to the company’s products. For example, some states are requiring paper receipt printers.

As a result of these challenges, and because 2004 was a presidential election year, the company believes that prospective purchases of voting equipment and services by certain government entities were delayed in 2004. Those entities did not want to introduce a new voting solution in a presidential election year and also wanted to see how successful electronic voting was in states that had already implemented the technology. The delay in orders resulted in higher inventory levels of approximately $32 million and lower voting sales in the range of approximately $65 million to $75 million in 2004. As a result of the positive performance of the company’s voting equipment, the positive performance of electronic voting

systems, in the past presidential election, and the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) requirement that jurisdictions must have HAVA-compliant equipment installed by January 1, 2006, the company expects to recover a significant portion of the delayed sales in 2005, as well as participate in new jurisdiction decisions to purchase voting equipment in 2005, although the delay in orders continued in the first quarter of 2005. Despite these expectations for 2005, future delays or increases in the costs of providing products and services may be encountered as a result of possible future challenges, changes in the laws and changes to product specifications, any of which may adversely affect the company’s election systems sales.

The company intends the discussion of its financial condition and results of operations that follows to provide information that will assist in understanding the financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect the financial statements.

The business drivers of the company’s future performance include several factors that include, but are not limited to:

•   timing of a self-service upgrade and/or replacement cycle in mature markets such as the United States;
 
•   high levels of deployment growth for new self-service products in emerging markets such as Asia-Pacific;
 
•   demand for new service offerings, including outsourcing or operating a network of ATMs;
 
•   demand beyond expectations for security products and services for the financial, retail and government sectors;
 
•   implementation and timeline for new election systems in the United States;
 
•   the company’s strong financial position; and
 
•   the company’s ability to successfully integrate acquisitions.

In addition to the business drivers above, as a global operation, the company is exposed to risks that include, but are not limited to:

•   competitive pressures, including pricing pressures and technological developments;
 
•   changes in the company’s relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors and/or partners in its business ventures;
 
•   changes in political, economic or other factors such as currency exchange rates, inflation rates, recessionary or expansive trends, taxes and regulations and laws affecting the worldwide business in each of the company’s operations;
 
•   acceptance of the company’s product and technology introductions in the marketplace;
 
•   unanticipated litigation, claims or assessments;
 
•   ability to reduce costs and expenses and improve internal operating efficiencies;
 
•   variations in consumer demand for financial self-service technologies, products and services;
 
•   challenges raised about reliability and security of the company’s election systems products, including the risk that such products will not be certified for use or will be decertified;
 
•   changes in laws regarding the company’s election systems products and services; and
 
•   potential security violations to the company’s information technology systems.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Management of the company uses historical information and all available information to make these estimates and assumptions. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Management believes that, of its significant accounting policies, its policies concerning revenue recognition, allowance for bad debts, goodwill, inventory and pensions and postretirement benefits are the most critical because they are affected significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates. Additional information regarding these policies is included below.

Revenue Recognition

The company’s product revenue consists of sales of ATMs, networking software, servers, electronic security products and voting machines. Service revenue consists of sales of service contracts, installation revenue, maintenance revenue and consultation revenue of bank branch design and security system design. Revenue is recognized only after the earnings process is complete. For product sales, the company determines that the earnings process is complete when the customer has assumed risk of loss of the goods sold and all performance requirements are substantially complete. Election systems revenue is primarily generated through sales contracts consisting of multiple deliverable elements and custom terms and conditions. Each contract is analyzed based on the multiple elements included within the contract. The company determines fair value of deliverables within a multiple element arrangement based on the list price charged when each element is sold separately. Some contracts may contain discounts and, as such, revenue is recognized using the relative fair value method of allocation of revenue to the product and service components of contracts. For service sales, the earnings process is considered complete once the service has been performed or earned.

Allowance for Bad Debts and Credit Risk

The company evaluates the collectibility of accounts receivable based on a number of criteria. A percentage of sales is reserved for uncollectible accounts as sales occur throughout the year. This percentage is based on historical loss experience and current trends. This estimate is periodically adjusted for known events such as specific customer circumstances and changes in the aging of accounts receivable balances. Since the company’s receivable balance is concentrated primarily in the financial and government sectors, an economic downturn in these sectors could result in higher than expected credit losses.

Inventories

Domestic inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market applied on a first-in, first-out basis, and international inventories are valued using the average cost method. At each reporting period, the company identifies and writes down its excess and obsolete inventory to its net realizable value based on forecasted usage, orders and inventory aging. With the development of new products, the company also rationalizes its product offerings and will write down discontinued product to the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Goodwill

The company tests all existing goodwill at least annually for impairment using the fair value approach on a “reporting unit” basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The company’s reporting units are defined as Domestic and Canada, Brazil, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Election Systems. The company uses the discounted cash flow method for determining the fair value of its reporting units. As required by SFAS 142, the determination of implied fair value of the goodwill for a particular reporting unit is the excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities in the same manner as the allocation in a business combination. Implied fair

value goodwill is determined as the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the fair value of its assets and liabilities. The company’s fair value model uses inputs such as estimated future segment performance. The company uses the most current information available and performs the annual impairment analysis during the fourth quarter each year. However, actual circumstances could differ significantly from assumptions and estimates made and could result in future goodwill impairment.

Pensions and Postretirement Benefits

Annual net periodic expense and benefit liabilities under the company’s defined benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. Assumptions used in the actuarial calculations have a significant impact on plan obligations and expense. Annually, management and the investment committee of the Board of Directors review the actual experience compared with the more significant assumptions used and makes adjustments to the assumptions, if warranted. The healthcare trend rates are reviewed with the actuaries based upon the results of their review of claims experience. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is determined using the plans’ current asset allocation and their expected rates of return based on a geometric averaging over 20 years. The discount rate is determined by analyzing the average return of high-quality (i.e., AA-rated) fixed-income investments and the year-over-year comparison of certain widely used benchmark indices as of the measurement date. The rate of compensation increase assumptions reflects the company’s long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook. Pension benefits are funded through deposits with trustees. The market-related value of plan assets is calculated under an adjusted market value method. The value is determined by adjusting the fair value of assets to reflect the investment gains and losses (i.e., the difference between the actual investment return and the expected investment return on the market-related value of assets) during each of the last five years at the rate of 20 percent per year. Postretirement benefits are not funded and the company’s policy is to pay these benefits as they become due.

The following table highlights the sensitivity of our pension obligations and expense to changes in the healthcare cost trend rate:

                 
    One-Percentage-   One-Percentage-
    Point Increase
  Point Decrease
Effect on total of service and interest cost
  $ 86     $ (77 )
Effect on postretirement benefit obligation
    1,424       (1,273 )

Amortization of unrecognized net gain or loss resulting from experience different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions (excluding asset gains and losses not yet reflected in market-related value) is included as a component of net periodic benefit cost for a year if, as of the beginning of the year, that unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds five percent of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets. If amortization is required, the amortization is that excess divided by the average remaining service period of participating employees expected to receive benefits under the plan.

Certain accounting guidance, including the guidance applicable to pensions, does not require immediate recognition of the effects of a deviation between actual and assumed experience or the revision of an estimate. This approach allows the favorable and unfavorable effects that fall within an acceptable range to be netted. Although this netting occurs outside the basic financial statements, the net amount is disclosed as an unrecognized gain or loss in Note 11 to the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Based on the above assumptions, the company expects pension expense to increase by $3,836 in 2005, increasing from $4,664 in 2004 to approximately $8,500 in 2005. Changes in any of the aforementioned assumptions could result in changes in the related retirement benefit cost and obligation. The company’s qualified pension plans remain adequately funded, and the company is not required to make any additional contributions in 2005. Pension expense excludes retiree medical expense, which is also included in operating expenses and was $334 and $340 in the first quarter 2005 and 2004, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital resources are obtained from income retained in the business, borrowings under the company’s committed and uncommitted credit facilities, long-term industrial revenue bonds, and operating and capital leasing arrangements. At March 31, 2005, the company had U.S. dollar denominated outstanding bank credit lines approximating $79,730, euro denominated outstanding bank credit lines approximating 99,717 (translated at $129,258) and Indian rupee denominated outstanding bank credit lines approximating 136,000 (translated at $3,109). An additional $195,180 was available under committed credit line agreements and $57,655 was available under uncommitted lines of credit. Management expects that cash provided from operations, available credit, long-term debt and the use of operating leases will be sufficient to finance planned working capital needs, investments in facilities or equipment, and the purchase of company stock. Part of the company’s growth strategy is to pursue strategic acquisitions. The company has made acquisitions in the past and intends to make acquisitions in the future. The company intends to finance any future acquisitions with either cash provided from operations, borrowings under available credit facilities, proceeds from debt or equity offerings and/or the issuance of common shares.

During the first quarter 2005, the company generated $78,430 in cash from operating activities, an increase of $62,376 or 388.5 percent from the same period in 2004. Cash flows from operating activities are generated primarily from operating income and controlling the components of working capital. First quarter 2005 cash flows from operations were positively affected by the $43,182 decrease in accounts receivable compared with an increase of $1,208 in the first quarter 2004. Total sales increased by $41,979 in the first quarter 2005 versus first quarter 2004, while days sales outstanding (DSO) improved 13 days over the same time period. DSO was 83 days at March 31, 2005 compared with 96 days at March 31, 2004. The improvement in DSO was due to a new “order-to-cash” process implemented during 2004. Included in the March 31, 2005 trade receivables were amounts due from San Diego and San Joaquin counties in California totaling approximately $32,000 related to the election systems business. The company anticipates collection of these receivables beginning in the second quarter of 2005. The increase in inventories in the first quarter 2005 was $20,846 and was $9,500 less than the $30,346 increase in inventories during the first quarter 2004. The increase in inventories was due to the continued impact of transitioning to the new Opteva product solution, as well as anticipated strong future orders. In addition, the change in certain other assets and liabilities positively affected cash flows from operations for first quarter 2005 by $45,502 as compared with a positive impact of $29,817 in 2004. The change was primarily the result of an increase in deferred income due to increased volume of customer service contract billings.

The company used $21,972 for investing activities in the first quarter 2005, a decrease of $6,188 or 22.0 percent over first quarter 2004. The decrease over the prior quarter was the result of higher net investment proceeds in 2005 which increased by $9,761. Net investment proceeds equal the combination of “proceeds from maturity of investments” and “payments for purchases of investments”. The increase in net investment proceeds was partially offset by increased capital and rotable expenditures of $2,743 and slightly higher other asset purchases.

The company used $84,535 for financing activities in the first quarter 2005, an increase of $73,473 or 664.2 percent over 2004. The overall increase in the first quarter of 2005 was due to increased net repayments on notes payable of $71,796 as compared with net borrowings of $16,039 in the first quarter of 2004. The increased cash use from the change in borrowings was partially offset by a $16,488 decrease in stock repurchases as the company did not repurchase company stock in the first quarter 2005. In addition, the company paid cash dividends of $14,697 in the first quarter 2005, an increase of $1,224 or 9.1 percent versus the first quarter of 2004.

Contractual cash obligations with initial and remaining terms in excess of one year and contingent liabilities remained generally unchanged at March 31, 2005 compared to December 31, 2004.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

First Quarter 2005 Comparisons with First Quarter 2004

Net Sales

Net sales for first quarter 2005 totaled $540,234 and were $41,979 or 8.4 percent higher than net sales for first quarter 2004. Financial self-service product revenue increased by $19,085, or 12.4 percent, over the comparable period in 2004 primarily due to market growth. Security product revenue increased by $5,120 or 8.9 percent over first quarter 2004, due to increases in the retail, government and financial security markets as a result of strategic acquisitions, growth in the market and increased market share. Total service revenue for financial self-service and security solutions increased $26,791 or 9.9 percent over first quarter 2004, as the company continued to expand its service customer base. Election systems net sales of $5,856 decreased by $9,017 or 60.6 percent over first quarter 2004 due to purchasing delays resulting from ongoing political debates regarding electronic voting that have adversely affected the election systems business. In addition to increased financial self-service and security sales, revenue was positively impacted by the year-over-year strengthening of the euro and certain other currencies. The positive currency impact in the first quarter 2005 was approximately $8,900 or 1.8 percent as compared to the first quarter 2004.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for first quarter 2005 totaled $140,401 and was $374 or 0.3 percent higher than gross profit in first quarter 2004. Product gross margin was 28.9 percent compared to 32.5 percent in the comparable period of 2004. Included in product cost of sales in the first quarter 2005 was approximately $6,800 in restructuring charges, related primarily to realignment actions taken in Western Europe, which adversely affected product gross margin by 2.9 percentage points. The remaining decrease in product gross margin was attributable to weaker international product gross margins, especially in Europe, and lower election system product margin on overall lower voting sales. Service gross margin was 23.7 percent compared to 24.7 percent in first quarter 2004. The decrease in service gross margin was the result of continued pricing pressures and increased fuel costs. Included in the service cost of sales in first quarter 2005 was approximately $400 in restructuring charges, which adversely affected service gross margin by 0.1 percentage points.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were 18.4 percent of net sales, down from 19.3 percent in first quarter 2004. Reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales accounted for 0.5 percentage points of the overall improvement to operating expenses. The improved leveraging of selling, general and administrative expenses was achieved due to aggressive controls on personnel costs, including strictly limiting the rate of replacement and new hires, limited base compensation increases and implementing a corporate-wide efficiency program. Reduced research and development expenses resulting from the ongoing product rationalization created by the Opteva rollout accounted for the balance of the improvement in operating expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income and expense and minority interest in the first quarter 2005 remained consistent with the first quarter 2004. The total of other income and expense was $1,252 compared to $934 in first quarter 2004. The increase in interest expense quarter over quarter of $751 was due mainly to higher interest rates.

Net Income

Net income for first quarter 2005 was $26,675 and decreased $2,494 or 8.6 percent over net income for the first quarter 2004. The decline in net income was mainly the result of $7,300 in total restructuring charges in 2005. In addition, the effective tax rate in first quarter 2005 was 32.8 percent compared to 32.0 percent in first quarter 2004. The higher effective tax rate in first quarter 2005 was due to the settlement of a prior-year U.S. state tax issue.

Segment Revenue and Operating Profit Summary

Diebold North America (DNA) first quarter 2005 net sales of $341,577 increased $36,250 or 11.9 percent over first quarter 2004 net sales of $305,327. The increase in DNA net sales was due to increased product and service revenue from market growth as a result of the continued favorable response to the Opteva financial self-service product line. Diebold International (DI) first quarter 2005 net sales of $192,801 increased by $14,746 or 8.3 percent compared with net sales in the comparable period in 2004 of $178,055. The increase in DI net sales was attributed to strong Latin American and Brazilian revenue growth of $15,512 and Asia-Pacific revenue growth of $5,937, partially offset by approximately $6,703 decrease in Europe, Middle East and Africa net sales. Election Systems (ES) first quarter 2005 net sales of $5,856 decreased by $9,017 or 60.6 percent compared to first quarter 2004 net sales of $14,873 due to purchasing delays resulting from ongoing political debates regarding electronic voting that have adversely affected the election systems business.

DNA operating profit in the first quarter of 2005 increased by $7,073 or 17.9 percent compared with first quarter 2004. The increase was primarily due to increased sales and efficiencies gained from various internal cost control initiatives, which more than offset the adverse impact from higher material and fuel costs. DI operating profit for first quarter 2005 decreased by $10,252 or 122.7 percent compared with the comparable period in 2004, moving from an operating profit of $8,355 in first quarter 2004 to an operating loss of $1,897 in first quarter 2005. The decrease in DI operating profit was primarily due to $6,900 of restructuring charges recorded in Western Europe. In addition, DI experienced lower gross margins because of pricing pressure, higher material and fuel costs, and unfavorable geographic sales mix. Operating loss in ES decreased by $296 or 7.2 percent; moving from an operating loss of $4,128 in first quarter 2004 to a loss of $3,832 in first quarter 2005. This favorable movement in the ES operating loss was a result of lower operating expense levels in first quarter 2005 in the election systems business.

Refer to Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further details of segment revenue and operating profit.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
                (Dollars in thousands)

The company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent in its international operations denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. A hypothetical 10 percent unfavorable movement in the applicable foreign exchange rates would have resulted in a decrease in 2005 and 2004 quarter-to-date operating profit of approximately $86 and $684, respectively. The sensitivity model assumes an instantaneous, parallel shift in the foreign currency exchange rates. Exchange rates rarely move in the same direction. The assumption that exchange rates change in an instantaneous or parallel fashion may overstate the impact of changing exchange rates on amounts denominated in a foreign currency.

The company’s risk-management strategy uses derivative financial instruments such as forwards to hedge certain foreign currency exposures. The intent is to offset gains and losses that occur on the underlying exposures, with gains and losses on the derivative contracts hedging these exposures. The company does not enter into derivatives for trading purposes. The company’s primary exposures to foreign exchange risk are movements in the dollar/euro and dollar/real rates. There were no significant changes in the company’s foreign exchange risks compared with the prior period.

The company manages interest rate risk with the use of variable rate borrowings under its committed and uncommitted credit facilities and interest rate swaps. Variable rate borrowings under the credit facilities totaled $212,097 and $289,510 at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. A one percent increase or decrease in interest rates would have resulted in an increase or decrease in annual interest expense of approximately $2,100 and $2,800 for 2005 and 2004, respectively. The company’s primary exposure to interest rate risk is movements in the LIBOR rate, which is consistent with prior period. The company had no derivative contracts hedging interest rate risk as of March 31, 2005.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer have concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information about the company required to be included in its Exchange Act reports.

Management has not identified any change in internal controls over financial reporting occurring during the first quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

At March 31, 2005, the company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, none of which individually or in the aggregate is considered material by management in relation to the company’s financial position or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the condensed consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of any present legal proceedings, commitments, or asserted claims.
