PENHALL INTERNATIONAL CORP.
AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2005

(Unaudited)

 

(1)         Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and in the opinion of management include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein, which consist solely of normal recurring adjustments.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated and certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

 

The Company’s business is seasonal in nature and the results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.  The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included on Form 10-K/A of Penhall International Corp. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) for the year ended June 30, 2004, as certain disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this report.

 

(2)         Stock-Based Compensation

 

As permitted by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” (“SFAS No. 123”) the Company continues to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB No. 25”).  The Company applies the intrinsic value method as outlined in APB No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options and share units granted to employees under these programs. Under the intrinsic value method, no compensation expense is recognized if the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. The Company has certain shares of Series B Preferred stock and common stock issued under the Securities Holders Agreement.  Certain compensation charges could r esult if triggering events (i.e. death, disability or termination) occur.  No compensation cost has been recognized on options granted to employees for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2005. SFAS No. 123 requires that the Company provide pro forma information regarding net loss and net loss per common share as if compensation cost for the Company’s stock option programs had been determined in accordance with the fair value method prescribed therein.

 

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 basic and diluted net loss available to common stockholders per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts as indicated below:

(3)         Loss Per Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the impact of assumed potentially dilutive securities. The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected in diluted per share by application of the treasury stock method. For the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share as options to purchase 8,585 and 7,910 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the three-month and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

(4)         Related Party

 

The Company has a balance due to Bruckmann, Rosser, Sherrill & Co., Inc. (BRS) of $600,000 as of March 31, 2005 related to management services.  The balance due at June 30, 2004 was $375,000.

 

(5)         Change in Accounting Principle

 

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” Statement 150 establishes standards for classifying and measuring certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Statement No. 150 requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) because that financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. Statement No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of certain entities, including the Company, for which this statement is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2003 (the Company’s fiscal 2005). The Company has adopted Statement 150 effective July 1, 2004.  As a result of the adoption of Statement 150, accretion related to the Senior Exchangeable Preferred Stock and the Series A Preferred Stock is presented as interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.  Prior to the adoption accretion was included as part of the determination of net loss applicable to common stockholders.

 

(6)         Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company has an employment related legal matter which has been substantially settled.  The Company estimates that the remaining reserves of $18,000 are sufficient based on the settlement. 

 

There are various additional lawsuits and claims pending and claims being pursued by the Company and its subsidiaries arising out of the normal course of business.  It is management’s present opinion, based in part upon the advice of legal counsel, that the outcome of these proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

 

7



 

(7)         Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

 

The following consolidating financial information is presented for purposes of complying with the reporting requirements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries. The Guarantor Subsidiaries, (Penhall Company and subsidiaries), guarantee jointly, severally, unconditionally and irrevocably certain obligations of the Company, including the Senior Notes.  Separate financial statements and other disclosures with respect to each of the individual Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented because the Company believes that such financial statements and other information would not, in the opinion of management, provide additional information that is material to investors.

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

 

The following discussion of the results of operations and financial condition of Penhall International Corp. and subsidiaries (Penhall or the Company) should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in its Fiscal 2004 annual report on Form 10-K/A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

GENERAL

 

Penhall was founded in 1957 in Anaheim, California with one piece of equipment, and today is one of the largest operated equipment rental services companies in the United States. Penhall differentiates itself from other equipment rental companies by providing specialized services in connection with infrastructure projects through renting equipment along with skilled operators to serve customers in the construction, industrial, manufacturing, governmental and residential markets. In addition, Penhall complements its Operated Equipment Rental Services with fixed-price contracts, which serve to market its Operated Equipment Rental Services business and increase utilization of its operated equipment rental fleet. Penhall provides its services from 37 locations in 16 states, with a presence in some of the fastest growing states in terms of construction spending and population growth.

 

The operated equipment rental industry is a specialized niche of the highly fragmented United States equipment rental industry, in which there are approximately 15,000 companies. Penhall has taken advantage of consolidation opportunities by acquiring small companies in targeted markets as well as by establishing new offices in those markets. Since 1998, Penhall has effected eight strategic acquisitions, including:

 

1.                                       HSI, a Minnesota-based firm acquired in April 1998,

 

2.                                       Daley Concrete Cutting, a South Carolina-based division of U.S. Rentals acquired in October 1998,

 

3.                                       Lipscomb Concrete Cutting, a North Carolina-based company acquired in November 1998,

 

4.                                       Prospect Drilling and Sawing, a Minnesota-based company acquired in June 1999,

 

5.                                       Advance Concrete Sawing and Drilling, Inc., a California-based company acquired in September 2000,

 

6.                                       H&P Sawing and Drilling, a Kansas City, Missouri-based company acquired in March 2002.  Effective October 1, 2004, the Kansas City location was closed.  The assets have been transferred to other locations,

 

7.                                       Bob Mack Company, California-based company acquired in March 2002,

 

8.                                       Arizona Curb Cut Company, an Arizona-based company acquired in April 2002.

 

During the same period, Penhall established operations in six new markets by opening offices in Dallas, Richmond, Fresno, Buffalo, Reno, and Seattle. Penhall derives its revenues primarily from services provided for infrastructure related jobs. Penhall’s Operated Equipment Rental Services are provided primarily under hourly rentals, which are complemented by fixed-price contracts.

 

Fixed-price contracts are obtained primarily through competitive bidding in response to advertisements by federal, state and local agencies and private parties and to a lesser extent through negotiation with private parties. Our bidding activity is affected by such factors as backlog, current utilization of equipment and other resources, our ability to obtain necessary surety bonds and competitive considerations. Bidding activity, backlog and revenue resulting from the award of new contracts may vary significantly from period to period.

The two primary economic drivers of our business are (1) federal, state and local public funding levels for transportation and other infrastructure projects and (2) the overall health of the economy, nationally and locally, particularly as it affects private non-residential construction. The level of demand for our services will have a direct correlation to these drivers. For example, a weak economy will generally result in a reduced demand for construction in the private sector. This reduced demand increases competition for fewer private sector projects and will ultimately also increase competition in the public sector as companies migrate from bidding on scarce private sector work to projects in the public sector. Greater competition can reduce revenue growth and/or increase pressure on gross profit margins. A weak economy also tends to produce less tax revenue, thereby decreasing the funds available for spending on public infrastructure improvements. There are funding sources that have been specifically earmarked for infrastructure spending, such as gasoline taxes, which are not necessarily directly impacted by a weak economy. However, even these funds can be temporarily at risk as state and local governments struggle to balance their budgets. Conversely, higher public funding and/or a robust economy will increase demand for our services and provide opportunities for revenue growth and margin improvement.

 

Revenue growth is also influenced by infrastructure change, including new construction, modification, and regulatory changes. Penhall’s revenues are also impacted positively after the occurrence of natural disasters, such as the 1989 and 1994 earthquakes in Northern and Southern California. Other factors that influence Penhall’s operations are demand for operated rental equipment, the amount and quality of equipment available for rent, rental rates and general economic conditions. Historically, revenues have been seasonal, as weather conditions in the spring and summer months result in stronger performance in the first and fourth fiscal quarters than in the second and third fiscal quarters.

 

The principal components of Penhall’s operating costs include the cost of labor, equipment rental fleet maintenance costs including parts and service, equipment rental fleet depreciation, insurance and other direct operating costs. Given the varied, and in some cases specialized, nature of its rental equipment, Penhall utilizes a range of periods over which it depreciates its equipment on a straight-line basis. On average, Penhall depreciates its equipment over an estimated useful life of three to eight years with a 10% residual value.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to long-term construction contracts, accounts receivable, goodwill, long-lived assets, self-insurance, contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on current information, historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recognition of revenue that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:

 

Revenue Recognition on Long-Term Construction Contracts

 

Income from construction operations is recorded using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. The majority of our long-term fixed price contracts with our customers are either “fixed unit price” or “fixed price”. Under fixed unit price contracts, the Company is committed to provide materials or services required by a project at fixed unit prices.  The fixed unit price contract shifts the risk of estimating the quantity of units required for a particular project to the customer, any increase in our unit cost over the expected unit cost in the bid, whether due to inflation, inefficiency, faulty estimates or other factors, is borne by the Company unless otherwise provided in the contract. Fixed price contracts are priced on a lump-sum basis under which we bear the risk that we may not be able to perform all the work profitably for the specified contract amount.  All state and federal government contracts and many of our other contracts provide for termination of the contract for the convenience of the party contracting with us, with provisions to pay us for work performed through the date of termination.

 

We use the percentage-of-completion accounting method for construction contracts in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.” Revenue and earnings on construction contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method in the ratio of costs incurred to estimated final costs.  Provisions are recognized in the statement of operations for the full amount of estimated losses on uncompleted contracts whenever evidence indicates that the estimated total cost of a contract exceeds its estimated total revenue.

 

Contract cost consists of direct costs on contracts, including labor and materials, amounts payable to subcontractors, direct overhead costs and equipment expense (primarily depreciation, blades, fuel, maintenance and repairs). Contract cost is recorded as incurred and revisions in contract revenue and cost estimates are reflected in the accounting period when known.  The accuracy of our revenue and profit recognition in a given period is dependent on the accuracy of our estimates of the cost

 

18



 

to complete each project which are completed by our project managers. However, projects can be complex and in most cases the profit margin estimates for a project will either increase or decrease to some extent from the amount that was originally estimated at the time of bid. Because we have many projects of varying levels of complexity and size in process at any given time (during 2004 we worked on over 1,000 projects) these changes in estimates typically offset each other without materially impacting our overall profitability. However, large changes in cost estimates in the larger projects, can have a more significant effect on profitability.

 

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

 

On an annual basis or sooner when triggering events occur, we will review the carrying value of long-lived assets (excluding goodwill) for potential impairment.  Our review considers a combination of appraised value, anticipated future undiscounted cash flows and location of the asset for each line of equipment.  Deteriorating market conditions could potentially impact valuation of long-lived assets.  In markets where adverse market conditions exist, the Company will consider reallocation of long-lived assets to markets where those assets will produce cash flow.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell.  During the nine month period ended March 31, 2005, there were no triggering events.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” under which we recognize deferred income taxes, net of valuation allowances, for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

We evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets on a regular basis.  In making this assessment, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers all available evidence, both positive and negative in making this assessment. Due to estimated future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, management believes it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.  In the future, if we determine that we no longer expect to realize a portion of our deferred tax assets, we would recognize a deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would increase income tax expense in the period such determination is made.

 

Goodwill

 

We use estimates in order to determine if goodwill has been impaired. An impairment loss may be recognized if the carrying amount of a reporting unit’s net book value exceeds the estimated fair value of the reporting unit.   As of March 31, 2005, goodwill is assigned to five reporting units which represent five individual acquisitions.  We arrive at the estimated fair value of a reporting unit based on cash flow utilizing a multiple of earnings before interest, depreciation, taxes and amortization (EBIDTA).  This multiple is determined based on prior transactions conducted by the company and by others in comparable market sectors to calculate the fair value.  We will perform our valuation analysis at least annually or sooner if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. If our estimates or assumptions change from those used in our current valuation, we may be required to recognize an impairment loss in future periods. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at June 30 of each year.

 

Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include:

 

                  Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;

                  Significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;

                  Significant negative industry or economic trends;

                  Unanticipated competition; and

                  EBITDA relative to net book value

 

A majority of the remaining goodwill resides in one reporting unit in which profit levels have sustained over time.  We expect such profit levels to continue prospectively, however, if profit levels were to deteriorate the reporting units’ goodwill could become impaired.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Nine months Ended March 31, 2005 Compared to Nine months Ended March 31, 2004

 

Revenues.  Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2005  (“Interim 2005”) were $122.1 million an increase of $5.3 million or 4.5% from the nine months ended March 31, 2004 (“Interim 2004”).   In Interim 2005, service revenues increased $5.7 million or 7.0% and contract revenues decreased $0.4 million or 1.3% as compared to Interim 2004.  The increase in service revenues is primarily attributable to increases in non-residential construction nationwide and particularly in California as well as the increase in concrete restoration projects undertaken by many states.  The decrease in contract revenues is primarily attributable to the impact of a large project in Interim 2004 that was completed by Interim 2005.

 

Penhall operated through 37 locations in 16 states at March 31, 2005, and through 38 locations in 17 states at March 31, 2004.  At March 31, 2005, Penhall’s operated rental fleet consisted of 683 units compared to 700 units at March 31, 2004, a decrease of 2.4%.  The smaller fleet of revenue units is attributable to the Company not replacing all of the disposed units since overall revenue unit utilization rates remain low for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2005.

 

Gross Profit.  Gross profit totaled $29.1 million in Interim 2005, an increase of $2.6 million or 10.0% from Interim 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased from 22.7% in Interim 2004 to 23.8% in Interim 2005. The increase in gross profit from Interim 2004 to Interim 2005 is primarily attributable to higher market demand for operated equipment which increased demand for the Company’s services during Interim 2005.  Another factor increasing gross profit was the $1.5 million decrease in depreciation expense, which is the result of low capital expenditures during Fiscal 2003 and 2004.

 

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses were $22.4 million in Interim 2005 compared to $21.7 million in Interim 2004. As a percent of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 18.3% in Interim 2005 compared to 18.6% in Interim 2004. The increase in general and administrative expenses during Interim 2005 is primarily attributable to increases in rent expense of $0.7 million associated with the sale/leaseback of Company properties.

 

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $10.1 million in Interim 2005 compared to interest expense of $10.4 million in Interim 2004. The decrease in interest expense is attributable to lower borrowings in Interim 2005 primarily resulting from the proceeds on the sale-leaseback of the Company owned properties, which was used to reduce the borrowings under the revolving credit facility, partially offset by higher costs for letters of credit.

 

Interest Expense - Preferred Stock.  In Interim 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 150 which required the Company to present separately as interest expense $3.8 million of accretion related to mandatorily redeemable instruments.  Prior to Interim 2005, the Company recorded the accretion in the determination of net loss applicable to common stockholders which was $3.4 million in Interim 2004.

 

Other Income.  Other income was $82,000 in Interim 2005 compared to $839,000 in Interim 2004.  The decrease is attributable to the sale of an FCC license during Interim 2004.

 

Income Tax Benefit.  The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.2 million or 40% of earnings before income taxes excluding the impact of non-deductible interest expense on preferred stock, compared to an income tax benefit of $1.7 million, or 38.0% of earnings before income taxes in Interim 2004.   The change in the effective tax rate adjusted for the non-deductible interest expense related to preferred stock for Interim 2005 is primarily attributable to changes in the mix of earnings in differing tax jurisdictions.

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2004

 

Revenues.  Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2005  (“Quarter 2005”) were $30.9 million a decrease of $0.5 million or 1.6% from the three months ended March 31, 2004 (“Quarter 2004”).  The decrease in revenues is primarily attributable to unusually high levels of precipitation in the southwest markets during Quarter 2005 which reduced our ability to work.  In Quarter 2005, service revenues increased $1.7 million or 7.4% and contract revenues decreased $2.2  million or 27.4% as compared to Quarter 2004.  The increase in service revenues is primarily attributable to increases in non residential construction.  The decrease in contract revenues in Quarter 2005 is primarily related to a large project in Quarter 2004 which was completed prior to Quarter 2005.

 

Gross Profit.  Gross profit totaled $6.2 million in Quarter 2005, an increase of $0.9 million or 16.5% from Quarter 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased to 19.9% in Quarter 2005 from 16.8% in Quarter 2004. The increase in gross profit from Quarter 2004 to Quarter 2005 is primarily attributable to a $0.4 million decrease in depreciation expense, which is the result of low capital expenditures during fiscal 2003 and 2004, as well as higher utilization during Quarter 2005.

 

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses were $7.0 million in Quarter 2005 compared to $7.3 million in Quarter 2004. As a percent of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 22.8% in Quarter 2005 compared to 23.2% in Quarter 2004. The decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues during Quarter 2005 is primarily attributable to decreases in legal expense of $0.3 million during Quarter 2005.

 

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $3.3 million in Quarter 2004 and 2005.

 

20



 

Interest Expense - Preferred Stock.  In Quarter 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 150 which required the Company to present separately as interest expense $1.3 million of accretion related to mandatorily redeemable instruments.  Prior to Quarter 2005, the Company recorded the accretion in the determination of net loss applicable to common stockholders which was $1.2 million in Quarter 2004.

 

Income Tax Benefit. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.7 million, or 40.3% of earnings before income taxes excluding the impact of non-deductible interest expense on preferred stock, compared to an income tax benefit of $2.1 million, or 37.6% of earnings before income taxes in Quarter 2004.    The change in the effective tax rate adjusted for the non-deductible interest expense related to preferred stock for Quarter 2005 is primarily attributable to changes in the mix of earnings in differing tax jurisdictions.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

It is anticipated that the Company’s principal uses of liquidity will be to fund working capital, meet debt service requirements and finance the Company’s strategy of pursuing strategic acquisitions and expanding through internal growth. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are expected to be cash flow from operations and borrowings under the Company’s new credit facility (“The New Credit”) secured in May 2003. The New Credit is a $50 million, three year asset-based borrowing facility consisting of a revolving credit facility (“New Revolver”) of up to $50 million, with a $25 million sub-facility for letters of credit. Availability under the revolver portion of The New Credit would be limited to a borrowing base consisting of (i) up to 85% of the net amount of the Company’s eligible trade accounts receivable, (ii) up to the lesser of (a) 100% of the net book value of the Company’s eligible inventory and eligible equipment or (b) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of Company’s eligible inventory and equipment, and (iii) up to 50% of the appraised forced liquidation value of the Company’s owned real estate.

 

The provisions of The New Credit include a lock-box agreement that allows the lender, in its reasonable credit judgment, to assess additional reserves against the borrowing base calculation.  Accordingly, borrowings under the agreement are classified as current.  Borrowings under The New Credit are also subject to certain key financial covenants:

 

                  Maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio (adjusted EBITDA divided by interest expense) of at least 1.25.  At March 31, 2005, the actual ratio was 1.70.

 

                  Maintain a maximum leverage ratio (debt senior to the senior notes divided by adjusted EBITDA) of less than 2.30.  At March 31, 2005, the actual ratio was 1.01.

 

                  The Company is limited to $1.75 million of capital expenditures annually for parts and property.  This includes any fixed assets (other than equipment), parts, tools, supplies or improvements that have a useful life greater than one year.  At March 31, 2005, the Company had spent $244,000 for parts and property.

 

                  The Company is required to maintain a dollar utilization rate above 48% over the prior 4 quarters.  Dollar utilization is total revenue for equipment divided by total standard available revenue during the period.   At March 31, 2005, the Company’s dollar utilization was 64.2%.

 

At March 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.  There are no anticipated trends that we are aware of that would indicate non-compliance with such covenants, however, significant deterioration in our financial performance could impact our ability to comply with such covenants.

 

The indebtedness of the Company under The New Credit is secured by a first priority perfected security interest in all of the inventory, accounts receivable, equipment, fixtures, cash, and other assets of the Company.  As of March 31, 2005, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $1.0 million, $20.7 million of outstanding letters of credit, borrowing base limitations of $11.4 million, and borrowings unused and available under The New Credit of $16.9 million.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $1.9 million, to $6.7 million in Interim 2005 compared to $8.6 million of net cash provided by operating activities during Interim 2004. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to Federal tax refunds received during Interim 2004 totaling $2.5 million which are partially offset by the reduction in accounts receivable during Interim 2005 which provided $3.7 million in cash compared to $1.4 million in cash provided by the change in accounts receivable during Interim 2004.  Cash provided by the reduction in accounts receivable is due primarily to several large projects that were billed as of June 2004 and collected during interim 2005.  Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts used $0.6 million in net cash during Interim 2005 compared to $0.3 million in net cash provided during Interim 2004.  The change of $0.9 million is attributable to multiple projects and primarily the result of milestone billing arrangements with our customers.  Prepaid expenses and other current assets provided $1.2 million in cash during Interim 2005 compared to $2.2 million in Interim 2004.  This decrease is primarily related to the timing of the Company’s insurance premium payments.  Trade accounts payable used $1.2 million in cash during Interim 2005 compared to $3.5 million in cash in Interim 2004.  This change was primarily due to the type of contract work being performed at June 2003 which had higher levels of subcontract and materials elements than the contract work at June 2004.  Accrued liabilities used $2.9 million in cash during Interim 2005 compared to $0.9 million in Interim 2004.  This change is due to timing of payroll and related tax payments in addition to timing of insurance payments resulting from a change in the Company’s insurance year which was effective July 2004. 

 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities totaled $8.8 million for Interim 2005 compared to $9.1 million of net cash provided by investing activities during Interim 2004, a change of $17.9 million. In Interim 2005 proceeds from the sale of assets totaled $0.4 million were offset by capital expenditures of $9.2 million.  In Interim 2004, combined proceeds of $13.1 million from a sale-leaseback of all of the Company’s owned properties, the sale of one of our three FCC licenses and the proceeds from the sales of assets were offset by capital expenditures of $4.0 million.  As all of our owned properties were subject to the sale-leaseback transaction during Interim 2004 we don’t expect to generate additional liquidity through sale-leaseback transactions. 

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities changed by $18.5 million to $1.1 million in Interim 2005 compared to net cash used by financing activities totaling $17.4 million in Interim 2004.  This change in net cash from financing activities resulted primarily from a net increase in repayments of debt due in part to the sale-leaseback of the Company’s properties that occurred during Interim 2004.  Additionally, in Interim 2005 there was cash provided by book overdraft of $0.8 million compared to cash used by book overdraft of $0.5 million during Interim 2004. 

 

The Company had standby letters of credit totaling $20.7 million at March 31, 2005, all of which are automatically renewable unless the Company or the participating party cancels  the letter of credit thirty days prior to expiration.  The letters of credit are provided as collateral for our surety and for our insurance programs.  In addition, we are generally required to provide surety bonds that provide an additional measure of security under certain public and private sector contracts. Most of the Company’s surety bonds are performance bonds which do not have a stated expiration date; instead the bonds are generally released when each contract is accepted by our customer.

 

Management has budgeted approximately $12.0 million for fiscal 2005 capital expenditures, including replacement and maintenance of equipment, purchases of new equipment, and purchases of real property improvements.

 

Historically, Penhall funded its working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other needs principally from operating cash flows. However, in 1998, a series of transactions occurred similar to a leveraged buyout.  As a result of these transactions the Company has substantial indebtedness and debt service obligations. As of March 31, 2005, the Company and its subsidiaries had $101.3 million of indebtedness related to borrowings, $44.9 million of indebtedness related to mandatorily redeemable preferred stock and a stockholders’ deficit of $99.8 million.  As of March 31, 2005 approximately $16.9 million of additional borrowing was available under The New Credit.

 

As of March 31, 2005, the Company has the following obligations subject to redemption or maturity in fiscal 2007 and 2008:

The accretion of preferred stock will increase the total obligation through the dates of redemption.  The Company is exploring various strategies to extend the maturity of

its existing senior notes.  Such strategies could take the form of a bank financing or capital markets transaction. No assurance can be given that such financing will be available to the Company or, if available that it may be obtained on terms and conditions that are satisfactory to the Company.

 

As long as the uncertainty associated with the resolution of these obligations remains, the Company could be subject to adverse consequences including:

 

                  Making it more difficult to obtain surety support;

                  Increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

                  Limiting our ability to extend or replace the Company’s existing credit facility;

                  Limiting our ability to extend or replace the Company’s existing Senior Notes:

                  Limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate.

 

The Company also has certain common stock and Series B Preferred stock that are subject to the terms and conditions of a Securities Holders Agreement.  The Company may be required to repurchase these shares if certain conditions are met.  As of June 30, 2004 and March 31, 2005, the Company has recorded these shares at historical cost of $8,013,000, as temporary equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.  The Series B Preferred stock subject to the terms and conditions of the Securities Holders Agreement and the remaining Series B Preferred stock include provisions for cumulative dividends of 13% which have not been recorded as the dividends have not been declared.  Such dividends approximate $25,669,000 as of March 31, 2005.  The Company believes that the likelihood of the conditions allowing redemption by the stockholder occurring is remote.

 

From August 1, 2002 through October 25, 2002, the Company repurchased capital stock of the Company from four former employees for aggregate consideration of $35,000.  The Company’s Indenture dated as of August 1, 1998 (the “Indenture”) with United States Trust Company, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), permits repurchases of capital stock from former employees in annual amounts up to $1,000,000 and up to $5,000,000 in aggregate over the life of the Indenture; provided that, at the time of any such repurchase, the Company must be able to incur additional indebtedness under the Indenture’s fixed charge coverage ratio.  At the time of the repurchases described above, the Company was not able to incur additional indebtedness under the Indenture’s fixed charge coverage ratio, and accordingly such repurchases were not permitted by the Indenture.  The Company has informed the Trustee of such repurchases.  The Trustee has indicated that it considers the infraction minor and will not pursue written notice of default to the Company.  In the event that the Company receives written notice specifying the default and demanding that such default be remedied from either the Trustee or from Holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, then the Company will arrange for a third party to repurchase Company stock in the aggregate consideration of $35,000 to remedy the default.

 

In connection with our business, the Company is often required to provide surety bonds that provide an additional measure of security for our performance under certain public and private sector contracts. Our ability to obtain surety bonds depends upon our capitalization, working capital, past performance, management expertise and external factors, including the capacity of the overall surety market. Surety companies consider such factors in light of the amount of our backlog that we have currently bonded and their current underwriting standards, which may change from time to time. In the last few years we have seen a steady decrease in the capacity of the surety market, driven primarily by substantial increases in surety industry losses and consolidation in the surety market through acquisition. Due to the Company’s operating results for the past three years and the shrinking capacity of the surety market, the Company has seen higher premiums and increased difficulty obtaining bonding, in particular for larger and long-term projects.  In order to provide more flexibility and additional capacity to our surety program, we have retained a second surety.  As of March 31, 2005, over 26% of the Company’s backlog is bonded.  The Company’s inability to obtain surety bonds in the future would significantly impact our ability to obtain new contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

 

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.” Statement 150 establishes standards for classifying and measuring certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Statement No. 150 requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) because that financial instrument embodies an obligation of the issuer. Statement No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of certain entities, including the Company, for which this statement is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2003 (the Company’s fiscal 2005). The Company has adopted Statement 150 effective July 1, 2004.  As a

result of the adoption of Statement 150, accretion related to the Senior Exchangeable Preferred Stock and the Series A Preferred Stock is presented as interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.  Prior to the adoption accretion was included as part of the determination of net loss applicable to common stockholders.

 

NEW ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 109-1, “Application of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” (“FSP No. 109-1”) and FASB Staff Position No. 109-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” (“FSP No. 109-2”). These staff positions provide accounting guidance on how companies should account for the effects of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“AJCA”) that was signed into law on October 22, 2004. FSP No. 109-1 states that the tax relief (special tax deduction for domestic manufacturing) from this legislation should be accounted for as a “special deduction” instead of a tax rate reduction. FSP No. 109-2 gives a company additional time to evaluate the effects of the legislation on any plan for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings for purposes of applying FASB Statement No. 109. We do not expect adoption of FSP No 109-1 or FSP No 109-2 to have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations and earnings per share.

 

In December 2004, the FASB Statement No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” which replaces Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Statement No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values, beginning with the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under Statement No. 123, will no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. We are required to adopt Statement No. 123R in our first quarter of fiscal 2006. Under Statement No. 123R, we must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of Statement No.123R, while the retroactive method would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. We are evaluating the requirements of Statement No. 123R, and we do not expect that the adoption of Statement No.123R to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and earnings per share unless we were to issue additional options under our stock incentive plan.

 

In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 151, “Inventory Costs - An Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.”  Statement No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Among other provisions, the new rule requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs be recognized as current period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal” as stated in ARB No. 43. Statement No. 151 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005 and is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The adoption of Statement No. 151 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions”.  Statement No. 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions,” and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. Statement No. 153 specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. Statement No. 153 is effective for the fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005, and is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The adoption of Statement No. 153 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations,” which clarifies the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in Statement No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” as a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. FIN No. 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this interpretation.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its notes payable, including New Revolver and Senior Notes which are used to maintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of the Company’s operations. The Company’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives the Company borrows primarily at fixed rates and has the ability to choose interest rates under the Company’s credit facility.  The Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

 

The table below presents the principal amounts of debt, weighted average interest rates, fair values and other items required by the year of expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes as of March 31, 2005.

(1)          The revolving credit facility is classified as a short-term obligation in the consolidated balance sheet; however, the credit facility matures in 2006.  This is a $50 million revolving credit facility with the interest based upon LIBOR plus 350 basis points and an optional loan with the interest based on prime plus 200 basis points.  The total borrowing unused and available under the facility was $16.9 million at March 31, 2005.

 

(2)          The Company has different interest rate options for its variable rate debt.

 

(3)          The fair value of fixed rate debt was determined based on quoted market price for the debt instrument.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” as of the end of the period covered by this report.  As defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of our company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report in that they were reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.  It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. As required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any change occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, during our most recent fiscal quarter, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
