ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. When used in this report, the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “believe” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 regarding events, conditions and financial trends including, without limitation, business conditions and growth in the fashion golf apparel market and the general economy, competitive factors, and price pressures in the high-end golf-apparel market; general economic conditions resulting from threats or acts of war or terrorism; risks associated with an increasing percentage of sales relating to licensed apparel, such as the Ben Hogan® collections; inventory risks due to shifts in market and/or price erosion of purchased apparel, raw fabric and trim; cost controls; changes in product mix; loss or reduced manufacturing capacity of significant suppliers; loss or delay of shipments of finished goods from foreign suppliers; and other risks or uncertainties detailed in other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings made by Sport-Haley. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the actual plan of operations, business strategy, operating results and financial position of Sport-Haley could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

The Company’s condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures. A summary of those significant accounting policies can be found in the Company’s Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Report on 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002, which was filed with the SEC on September 27, 2002. The estimates used by management are based upon the Company’s historical experiences combined with management’s understanding of current facts and circumstances. Certain of the Company’s accounting policies are considered critical as they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and the results of its operations and require significant or complex judgments on the part of management. Management believes that the following represent the critical accounting policies of the Company as described in Financial Reporting Release No. 60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies,” which was issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission: inventories; deferred income taxes; allowance for doubtful accounts; and, allowance for sales returns.

 

Excess finished goods inventories are a natural component of a seasonal apparel business. The valuation of inventories involves complex judgments on the part of management. Management continually evaluates and balances the levels of current seasons’ inventories to meet market demands based upon sales projections, current bookings for future deliveries and at-once business. While certain finished goods items will sell out in any particular selling season, quantities of other finished goods items will remain at the end of each selling season. The Company markets previous seasons’ finished goods inventories at reduced wholesale prices. However, economic conditions and other factors may depress sales prices for previous seasons’ finished goods inventories to less than historical costs.

 

11



 

The Company’s management has significantly improved controls with respect to the amount of finished goods inventories that are anticipated to remain at the end of each selling season. While management believes that the Company’s processes produce a fair valuation of inventories, detrimental changes in general economic conditions or in the golf apparel industry could materially affect valuation of the Company’s inventories.

 

Deferred income taxes are recognized for the expected tax consequences in future years for differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts, based upon enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. The Company’s significant deferred tax assets are related to net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes, a change in accounting methods for federal income tax purposes, stock options compensation and an unrealized loss for tax purposes on a common stock investment. The Company has established a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the net amount expected to be recovered in future periods. The estimates for deferred tax assets and the corresponding valuation allowance require management to exercise complex judgments. Management periodically reviews and adjusts those estimates based upon the most current information available. However, because the recoverability of deferred tax assets is directly dependent upon the future operating results of the Company, actual recoverability of deferred tax assets may differ materially from management’s estimates.

 

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts reflects a reserve that reduces customer accounts receivable to the net amount estimated to be collectible. Estimating the credit worthiness of customers and the recoverability of customer accounts requires management to exercise considerable judgment. In estimating uncollectible amounts, management considers factors such as general economic and industry-specific conditions, historical customer performance and anticipated customer performance. While management considers the Company’s processes to be adequate to effectively quantify its exposure to doubtful accounts, changes in economic, industry or specific customer conditions may result in a recoverability of the Company’s doubtful accounts that materially differs from management’s estimates.

 

The Company records its allowance for sales returns as a net adjustment to customer accounts receivable. When recording an allowance, the net method reduces customer accounts receivable and net sales by the estimated gross margin effect of the anticipated sales return. Generally, the Company’s selling terms preclude return of its products subsequent to the sale. However, the Company has traditionally maintained limited programs that offer some customers the right to return certain finished goods items under predefined conditions and each year a small percentage of the Company’s customers refuse receipt of merchandise at the time of delivery. Management reviews historical data and considers factors such as general economic and industry-specific conditions and anticipated customer performance when evaluating the Company’s allowance for sales returns. Significant changes in general economic or industry conditions may yield sales returns that differ materially from management’s estimates.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

The Company intends to rely on cash generated from operations and available cash on hand to finance its working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. To the extent such amounts are insufficient to finance the Company’s working capital requirements, the Company may also make periodic borrowings under its revolving line of credit. Working capital at March 31, 2003 was approximately $19,554,000 and $20,766,000 at June 30, 2002.

 

Cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities decreased since June 30, 2002 by approximately $3,266,000, to $6,261,000 from $9,527,000. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents primarily relates to the increase in inventories and the repurchases of common stock which are discussed in further detail below. Net accounts receivable increased by approximately $637,000 to $4,772,000 at March 31, 2003 from $4,135,000 at June 30, 2002. Because the majority of the Company’s net sales for its third fiscal quarter (March 31) occur in the month of March, the Company’s net accounts receivable are historically higher at March 31 when compared with the previous June 30 balance. Due to a combination of these factors, the factors discussed below and others, during the nine months ended March 31, 2003, the Company’s operating activities used cash of approximately $2,005,000.

 

Since June 30, 2002, inventories increased by approximately $2,238,000 to $8,942,000 at March 31, 2003 from $6,704,000 at June 30, 2002. A primary component in the increase in inventories was an increase in Ben Hogan® finished goods inventories necessary to support the growing sales of Ben Hogan® apparel collections. Ben Hogan® finished goods inventories totaled approximately $2,023,000 at March 31, 2003 and $728,000 at June 30, 2002. Another significant portion of the increase in inventories was attributable to pending deliveries of ocean shipments of finished goods from foreign suppliers. Pending ocean deliveries of finished goods were approximately $662,000 at March 31, 2003 and $399,000 at June 30, 2002. The Company’s foreign suppliers generally deliver finished goods with shipping terms of free on board at the shipping location. Therefore, the Company’s reliance on foreign suppliers sustains the risk that the Company’s revenues could be adversely affected if a foreign shipment or shipments were received late or lost. Some of the Company’s significant suppliers are located in Asia. The spread of the SARS virus throughout portions of Asia and the current political unrest in the Koreas pose risks that shipments from such Asian suppliers could be delayed or lost. The Company maintains insurance for risk of loss relating to goods shipped from its foreign and domestic suppliers. However, the Company’s significant reliance on foreign suppliers sustains the risk that the Company may be left with inadequate or unsatisfactory recourse should the finished goods received from a foreign supplier be nonconforming or should a foreign supplier fail to deliver finished goods due to a viral plague, political conflict or other unforeseen circumstances.

 

Taxes receivable decreased by approximately $959,000 since June 30, 2002 to $112,000 at March 31, 2003, from $1,071,000. The decrease includes approximately $1,066,000 in federal income tax refunds received during the nine months ended March 31, 2003.

 

13



 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2003, the Company expended approximately $486,000 for the purchase of property and equipment, and approximately $273,000 in depreciation and amortization was charged to current operations. In the current fiscal year, the Company has expended approximately $308,000 for new information systems hardware and software that management expects to be fully operational as of July 1, 2003. During the same nine-month period, investing activities used cash of approximately $1,869,000, primarily due to the purchases and redemptions of held-to-maturity federally insured marketable securities and other low-risk short-term investments.

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by approximately $330,000 since June 30, 2002, to $1,423,000 at March 31, 2003, from $1,753,000. The decrease was comprised of an increase in accrued payroll expenses combined with decreases in trade accounts payable, accrued sales commissions and other expenses payable.

 

Total shareholders’ equity decreased by approximately $981,000 for the nine-month period. The decrease was attributable to a decrease in common stock due to the repurchases, an increase in additional paid-in capital due to the recording of stock options compensation expense and a decrease in retained earnings due to the net loss for the nine-month period. Book value per share at March 31, 2003 was approximately $8.28 per share, an increase of $0.31 per share as compared with $7.97 at June 30, 2002.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The Company’s business is seasonal in nature, with disproportionately higher sales occurring from January through June, which are the Company’s third and fourth quarters of each fiscal year.

 

Net sales for the fiscal quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, were approximately $5,504,000 and $13,326,000, respectively, increases of approximately $1,140,000 or 26%, and $1,418,000 or 12%, from net sales of approximately $4,364,000 and $11,908,000 for the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Management attributes the increases in net sales to the continued acceptance of Ben Hogan® apparel collections within upscale golf apparel markets. Net sales of Ben Hogan® apparel were approximately $2,754,000 and $319,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The overall percentage of net sales relating to Ben Hogan® apparel is indicative of the Company’s efforts to increase revenues associated with the Spalding Sports Worldwide licensing agreement for such apparel. The increasing relative percentage of sales relating to licensed apparel sustains a risk of loss, should the Spalding licensing agreement be terminated by either party. During the nine months ended March 31, 2003, the sluggish USA economy continued to negatively impact the travel and leisure markets within which the Company operates. Relatively soft economic conditions negatively impacted the Company’s sales for its first and second fiscal quarters. While the USA economy appeared to strengthen somewhat during the Company’s third fiscal quarter, the ensuing war with Iraq further impacted the travel and leisure segments of the economy. Because the war with Iraq has detrimentally affected bookings for future deliveries, management has lowered the Company’s sales forecasts for its forthcoming fall selling season. The Company continues to concentrate its efforts on increasing sales and creating new markets for both its HALEY® and Ben Hogan® products. Based upon bookings as of March 31, 2003 for shipments after that date, management expects the Company’s overall sales trend to flatten within the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2003.

 

14



 

The Company’s gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was approximately 42% and 40% for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively, and 32% and 34% for the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The gross profit percentages are reflective of management’s successful efforts to source its finished apparel at competitive prices from foreign suppliers and to minimize closeout inventories that must be sold at reduced prices.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 increased by approximately $319,000, or 15%, to $2,405,000 from $2,086,000 for the same three-month period in the prior fiscal year. While selling, general and administrative costs increased comparatively for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, they decreased as a percentage of sales for the same comparable period. Selling, general and administrative expenditures were approximately 44% of net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, as compared with 48% for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 increased by approximately $555,000, or 1%, to $5,813,000 from $5,258,000 for the same nine-month period in the prior fiscal year. A majority of the increase was attributable to selling, general and administrative expenses with respect to Ben Hogan® apparel. Other contributing factors were increases in advertising expenses and bad debt expenses of approximately $140,000 and $75,000, respectively, in the nine-month comparative period. Management continually searches for ways to refine the Company’s business operations in order to operate as efficiently as possible in continually difficult economic conditions.

 

Other income, net, decreased by approximately $82,000 and $195,000, or 105% and 66%, respectively, to ($4,000) and $101,000 for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, from $78,000 and $296,000 for the same periods in the prior fiscal year. The decreases were primarily attributable to differences between the periods in the respective rates of interest earned on cash, cash equivalents and federally insured marketable securities.

 

Income (loss) before provision for income taxes improved by approximately $478,000, or 80%, to ($120,000) for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2003, from ($598,000) for the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Income (loss) before provision for income taxes improved by approximately $509,000, or 57%, to ($387,000) for the nine months ended March 31, 2003, from ($896,000) for the same period in the prior fiscal year.

 

The Company’s effective tax rates for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 were 34% and 37%, respectively. The effective tax rate in any fiscal period can vary significantly from the effective tax rate in another period due to differences between the recognition of certain transactions for financial versus tax purposes. Certain deductions recognized for tax purposes may not be expensed for financial statement purposes, and certain expenses recorded for financial statement purposes may not be deductible for tax purposes.

 

Net income (loss) for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2003 was approximately ($79,000), an improvement of $241,000, or 75%, when compared with ($320,000) for the same three-month period in the prior fiscal year. Net income (loss) for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 was approximately ($242,000), an improvement of $302,000, or 56%, when compared with ($544,000) for the same nine-month period in the prior fiscal year. The differences were primarily due the comparative increases in net sales combined with the increases in gross margins.

 

15



 

Both the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share were ($0.03) and ($0.09) for the fiscal quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2003, respectively. Both the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share were ($0.11) and ($0.18) for the same periods in prior fiscal year.

ITEM 4  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of a date (the “Evaluation Date”) within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that all material information relating to the Company required to be filed in this quarterly report has been made known to them in a timely manner.

 

(b)  Changes in Internal Controls

 

There have been no significant changes made in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1                 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

As previously reported, a former shareholder commenced a putative class action lawsuit against Sport-Haley and three of its officers and directors (the “Defendants”). The action, which seeks unspecified damages, alleges that the Defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, by knowingly overstating Sport-Haley’s financial results, thereby causing Sport-Haley’s stock price to be artificially inflated. The complaint further alleges that the individual Defendants are liable by virtue of being controlling persons of Sport-Haley, pursuant to Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. The allegations arise out of Sport-Haley’s restatements of its financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, which Sport-Haley previously reported. The Court appointed a group of investors (the “Plaintiffs”), to act as lead plaintiffs in the action.

 

The Defendants believe that the action is without merit and intend to continue their vigorous defense of the lawsuit. As previously reported, in December 2001, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the action. In February 2002, the Plaintiffs filed their first amended complaint, alleging the same claims. The Defendants moved to dismiss the first amended complaint in February 2002. On March 25, 2003, the Court denied the Defendants’ motion to dismiss. No discovery has been conducted in the case to date.  Based upon information that is currently available, management is not able to estimate the amount of damages, if any, that might be awarded to the Plaintiffs and the class if the action were certified by the court as a class action and if the lawsuit were determined in favor of the Plaintiffs.

 

As previously reported, the staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) advised Sport-Haley and its Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer, Robert G. Tomlinson, that the staff plans to recommend to the Commission that an enforcement action should be taken against Sport-Haley and Mr. Tomlinson to obtain an injunction prohibiting future violations of certain provisions of the securities laws and possibly other relief. The staff’s planned recommendation primarily relates to errors in Sport-Haley’s previously issued financial statements that Sport-Haley previously reported when it restated its financial statements for fiscal years 1999 and 1998 and subsequently corrected material financial information for the quarterly periods of fiscal year 2000. Sport-Haley and Mr. Tomlinson provided the staff with written submissions setting forth legal and factual reasons why such an action should not be brought. Sport-Haley and Mr. Tomlinson do not know what action, if any, the staff will ultimately recommend to the Commission. If the staff recommends that the Commission initiate an enforcement action, it is not known whether the Commission will accept the staff’s recommendation. Should the Commission bring such an action, Sport-Haley and Mr. Tomlinson intend to vigorously contest it. Based upon the information that is currently available, management does not believe that the impact, if any, of such an enforcement action would have a material adverse effect upon Sport-Haley’s financial position.

 

18



 

As previously reported, Sport-Haley retained legal counsel to possibly pursue claims against its former auditors in connection with damages suffered as a result of the restatements of its financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 and the corrections of material financial information for the quarterly periods of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. Further, counsel to the former auditors has advised Sport-Haley that the former auditors may bring certain claims against Sport-Haley. Management believes that the claims threatened by Sport-Haley’s former auditors relate to allegations of unpaid fees. Each party continues to deny any liability to the other party. No legal action has been filed by Sport-Haley or its former auditors that asserts any of these claims. As of March 31, 2003, the Company had incurred approximately $534,000 in cumulative expenses related to the restatements of its financial statements and material quarterly information noted above.

 

Sport-Haley is subject to various other legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to those actions will not materially affect the financial position or results of operations of Sport-Haley.
