Options to purchase 218,000 and 1,345,000 shares of common stock were outstanding during the quarters ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because the option exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares and therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

4)    Debt

 

The credit facility contains various covenants. The Company was in compliance with such covenants as of March 31, 2003.

 

5)    Goodwill

 

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations”, (SFAS No. 141) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS No. 142). SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations. SFAS No. 141 specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported separately from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121 and subsequently, SFAS No. 144 after its adoption.

 

The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141 as of July 1, 2001, and SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company was required to evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary reclassifications in order to conform with the new classification criteria in SFAS No. 141 for recognition separate from goodwill. The Company was required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired, and make any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption. If an intangible asset was identified as having an indefinite useful life, the Company was required to test the intangible asset for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 within the first interim period. Impairment is measured as the excess of carrying value over the fair value of an intangible asset with an indefinite life. Any impairment loss was measured as of the date of adoption and recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first interim period.

 

In connection with SFAS No. 142’s transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, SFAS No. 142 required the Company to perform an assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of the date of adoption, January1, 2002. To accomplish this, the Company identified its reporting units and determined the carrying value of each reporting unit


by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of January 1, 2002. The Company determined the fair value of each reporting unit and compared it to the carrying amount of the reporting unit. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeded the fair value of the reporting unit, an indication existed that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired and the Company must perform the second step of the transitional impairment test. In the second step, the Company compared the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill, both of which were measured as of the date of adoption. The implied fair value of goodwill was determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation, in accordance with SFAS No. 141. The residual fair value after this allocation was the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Any transitional impairment loss was recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the Company’s 2002 consolidated statement of operations.

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, quoted market prices in active markets are the best evidence of fair value and shall be used as the basis for measurement, if available. The Company used quoted market prices to perform the assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill may be impaired. As a result of this assessment, there was an indication that goodwill was impaired. As required by SFAS No. 142, the Company performed a fair market valuation analysis, using market multiples, and other factors, on its business that had previously recorded goodwill. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $37,288,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2002. The impairment loss was recognized as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the Company’s 2002 consolidated statement of operations. There was no impairment of goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2003.

 

6)    Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In September 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (SFAS 143). SFAS 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The adoption of SFAS 143 did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145 “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” (SFAS 145). This statement eliminates the automatic classification of gain or loss on extinguishment of debt as an extraordinary item of income and requires that such gain or loss be evaluated for extraordinary classification under the criteria of Accounting Principles Board No. 30 “Reporting Results of Operations”. This statement also requires sale-leaseback accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions, and makes various other technical corrections to existing pronouncements. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 145 for the year ending December 31, 2003. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS 145 will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Examples of such costs covered by the standard include lease termination costs and certain employee severance costs that are associated with a restructuring, discontinued operations, plant closings or other exit or disposal activities. SFAS 146 is effective prospectively for exit and disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, with earlier application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 146 did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

 

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“Interpretation 45”), an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34. Interpretation 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. Interpretation 45’s initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are effective on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of Interpretation 45 effective December 31, 2002 and has not entered into any guarantees since December 31, 2002.

 

On December 31, 2002 the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure,” which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. “ SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 123 for stock-based compensation for annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002, including those companies that continue to recognize stock-


based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” In addition, SFAS No. 148 provides three alternative transition methods for companies that choose to adopt the fair value measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123. The Company has not determined whether it will adopt the fair value measure provisions of SFAS No. 123 but has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 as of December 31, 2002.

 

7)    Stock Options Plans

 

Prior to January 1, 1996, the Company accounted for stock option plans in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recognized on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” which permits entities to recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue to apply the intrinsic method provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net income (loss) and pro forma earnings (loss) per share disclosures for employee stock option grants made in 1995 and future years as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company has elected to continue to apply the provision of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148. The following pro forma disclosures are provided as required by SFAS No. 148 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2003.

 

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended 2002 and 2003 were $4.81, and $5.09 respectively, on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its stock option plans and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

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

 

This quarterly report contains statements which, to the extent that they are not recitations of historical fact, such as our belief that we have sufficient liquidity to meet our near-term operating needs, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the


Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “believe,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “intend,” “expect,” “plan,” “outlook,” “forecast” “may,” “will,” “should,” “continue,” “predict” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor protection within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Future events and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward-looking statements. Statements in this quarterly report, including the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” describe factors, among others, that could contribute to or cause such differences. Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, there is no assurance that our expectations will be attained.

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2003 increased by $4,926,000, or 13.9%. The increase in net sales was attributable to the increase in funding available to California School Districts for the purchase of classrooms as a result of the bonds for new school construction passed by the voters in November 2002. This initial funding has begun to stabilize the market.

 

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2003 decreased to 9.4% from 14.3% for the same period in 2002. The decrease in gross profit was due to price competition as the market for modular buildings decreased over the past several quarters due to the downturn of the current economic cycle. Additionally, there were increases in certain staff functions which increase the labor and labor related function costs.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2003 by $95,000, an increase of 5.5%. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general, and administrative expenses decreased from 4.8% in the first three months of 2002 to 4.5% in 2003. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was principally attributable to increases in labor and labor related costs.

 

Interest expense, net decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2003 by $142,000, or 29.0%. The decrease is attributable to decreased line of credit borrowings, decreased long-term debt due to repayment and decreased interest rates for the three months ended March 31, 2003. As a percentage of net sales, interest expense decreased from 1.4% in the first three months of 2002 to 0.9% in 2003.


 

Income before income taxes and cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for the three months ended March 31, 2003 decreased by $1,079,000, or 40.3%. As a percentage of net sales, income before income taxes and cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle decreased from 7.6% in the first three months of 2002 to 4.0% in 2003.

 

Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2003 decreased by $453,000, or 40.3%. As a percentage of net sales, income taxes decreased from 3.2% in the first three months of 2002 to 1.7% in 2003.

 

Income before cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for the three months ended March 31, 2003 decreased by $626,000, or 40.3%. As a percentage of net sales, income before cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle decreased from 4.4% in the first three months of 2002 to 2.3% in 2003.

 

Inflation

 

In the past, the Company has not been adversely affected by inflation, because it has been generally able to pass along to its customers increases in the costs of labor and materials.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

To date, the Company has generated cash from operations, bank borrowings and public offerings to meet its needs. At March 31, 2003, the Company had $488,000 in cash and cash equivalents. During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company generated cash from operating activities of $5,642,000.

 

The Company has a $66,000,000 credit facility, of which $40,000,000 represents a revolving loan commitment. The credit facility is secured by all the Company’s assets. The credit facility expires in December 2006. On March 31, 2003, $8,000,000 was outstanding under the revolving loan commitment. The credit facility contains various covenants. The Company was in compliance with such covenants as of March 31, 2003.

 

Management believes that the Company’s existing product lines and manufacturing capacity will enable the Company to generate sufficient cash through operations, supplemented by periodic use of its existing bank line of credit, to finance the Company’s business at current levels over the next 12 months. Additional cash resources may be required if the Company expands its business beyond current levels. For example, it will be necessary for the Company to construct or acquire additional manufacturing facilities in order for the Company to compete effectively in new market areas or states which are beyond a 300 mile radius from one of its production facilities. The construction or acquisition of new facilities would require significant additional capital. For these reasons, among others, the Company may need additional debt or equity financing in the future. There can be, however, no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such additional financing, or that any such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

 

In December 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting policies” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgements, often as a result of the need


to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management continually evaluates its estimates and assumptions including those related the Company’s most critical accounting policies. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Changes in economic conditions could have an impact on these estimates and the Company’s actual results. Management believes that the following may involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity:

 

Allowances for Contract Adjustments

 

The Company maintains allowances for contract adjustments that result from the inability of its customers to make their required payments. Management bases its allowances through analysis of the aging of accounts receivable at the date of the financial statements, assessments of historical collection trends, and an evaluation of the impact of current economic conditions.

 

Revenue Recognition on Construction Contracts

 

Contracts are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting and, therefore, take into account the costs, estimated earnings and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed. Revenue recognized is that percentage of the total contract price that cost expended to date bears to anticipated final total cost, based on current estimates of costs to complete.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“Interpretation 46”), an interpretation of ARB No. 51. Interpretation 46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities. Interpretation 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in the first year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company believes it has no variable interest entities to which Interpretation 46 would apply.

 

Item 3.    Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuation in interest rates on our $66 million credit facility. During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, we did not use interest rate swaps or other types of derivative financial instruments. The carrying value of the credit facility approximates fair value as the interest rate is variable and resets frequently. Indebtedness under the credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus additional interest of between 1.25% and 1.75%, or the Federal funds rate plus additional interest of between 0% to 0.5%. The additional interest charge is based upon certain financial ratios. We estimate that the average amount of debt outstanding under the credit facility for 2003 will be $25 million. Therefore, a one-percentage point increase in interest rates would result in an increase in interest expense of $250,000 for the year.

 

Item 4.    Controls And Procedures

 

As of a date within 90 days of the date of this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to us that is required to be included in our SEC filings. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.
