ANSYS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2004

(Unaudited)

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by ANSYS, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information for commercial and industrial companies and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. The condensed consolidated December 31, 2003 balance sheet presented is derived from the audited December 31, 2003 balance sheet included in the most recent Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk: The Company has a concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables due to the limited number of distributors through which the Company sells its products. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral.

 

In addition to the concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are also exposed to concentration of credit risk. The Company maintains its cash accounts primarily in U.S. banks, which are insured by the F.D.I.C. up to $100,000 per bank. The Company had cash balances on deposit with a U.S. bank at June 30, 2004 that exceeded the balance insured by the F.D.I.C. in the amount of approximately $51 million. A significant portion of the Company’s remaining cash balance is also uninsured.

 

Stock-Based Compensation: The Company has elected to account for stock-based compensation arrangements under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” No compensation expense has been recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income as option grants generally are made with exercise prices equal to the fair value of the underlying common stock on the award date, which is typically the date of compensation measurement.

 

6


Had compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the date of grant, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” the Company’s net income and basic and diluted earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

3. Other Current Assets

 

The Company reports accounts receivable related to the portion of annual lease licenses and software maintenance that has not yet been recognized as revenue as a component of other current assets. These amounts totaled $12.4 million and $13.0 million as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

 

4. Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts are computed by dividing earnings by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS amounts assume the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive equivalents outstanding. The details of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

5. Acquisition of CFX

 

On February 26, 2003 the Company acquired 100% of the shares in certain entities and assets (hereinafter collectively referred to as “CFX”) for a purchase price of approximately $21.7 million. The CFX operating results are included in the Company’s financial statements for only the periods subsequent to the acquisition.

 

The CFX business was a carve-out entity from the acquiree with significant intercompany transactions and, as a result, proforma information on revenue, income before extraordinary items and the cumulative effect of accounting changes (including those on an interim basis), net income and earnings per share are indeterminable.

 

6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

During the first quarter of 2004, the Company completed the annual impairment test for goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives and determined that goodwill and the trademark had not been impaired as of January 1, 2004. No events occurred or circumstances changed during the six months-ended June 30, 2004 that required an interim goodwill impairment test.

 

As of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company’s intangible assets are classified as follows:

8. Leases

 

In January 1996, the Company entered into a lease agreement with an unrelated third party for a new corporate office facility, which the Company occupied in February 1997. In May of 2004, the Company entered into the first amendment to this lease agreement, effective January 1, 2004. The lease was extended from an original period of ten years, with an option for five additional years to a period of 18 years from the inception date, with an option for five additional years. The future minimum lease payments are $1.2 million per annum from January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2008 and $1.4 million per annum from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2014. The future minimum payments from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2019 will be determined based on prevailing market rental rates at the time of the extension, if elected. The amended lease also provides for the lessor to reimburse the Company for up to $550,000 in building refurbishments completed through March 31, 2006.

 

9. Stock Repurchase Program

 

In October 2001, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had amended its existing stock repurchase program to acquire up to an additional one million shares, or four million shares in total under the program that was initially announced in February 2000. Under this program, there were no shares repurchased in the three-month period ended June 30, 2004. As of June 30, 2004, 1.1 million shares remain authorized for repurchase under the program.

 

10. Subsequent Event – Stock Split

 

On August 5, 2004, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 stock split of the Company’s common shares. The stock split is in the form of a stock dividend and will be distributed on October 4, 2004 to holders of record at the close of business on September 3, 2004.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

ANSYS, Inc.

Canonsburg, Pennsylvania

 

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of ANSYS, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2004 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

 

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

 

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of ANSYS, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 16, 2004, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph, which indicated that the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets in 2002 to conform to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

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

 

Overview:

 

ANSYS’s quarterly results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 reflect revenue growth of 16% and 21%, and diluted earnings per share growth of 59% and 61%, respectively. These results were impacted by various factors, including higher revenues from the Company’s software products and services, a full six months of CFX operating results in the current six-month period as compared to approximately four months in the prior six-month period, foreign currency fluctuations, reduced headcount-related costs in the Company’s services business and a lower effective tax rate.

 

ANSYS, Inc. (the “Company”) develops and globally markets engineering simulation software and technologies widely used by engineers and designers across a broad spectrum of industries, including aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, electronics and biomedical. Headquartered at Southpointe in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, the Company employs approximately 550 people and focuses on the development of open and flexible solutions that enable users to analyze designs directly on the desktop, providing a common platform for fast, efficient and cost-conscious product development, from design concept to final-stage testing and validation. The Company distributes its ANSYS®, ANSYS WorkbenchTM, DesignSpace®, ICEM CFD Engineering, CFX® and CADOE® products through a global network of channel partners, in addition to its own direct sales offices in strategic, global locations. It is the Company’s intention to continue to maintain this mixed sales and distribution model. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003 filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

This Form 10-Q contains 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, including the following statements, as well as statements which contain such words as “anticipates”, “intends”, “believes”, “plans” and other similar expressions:

 

  The Company’s intention to continue to maintain a mixed sales and distribution model.

 

  The Company’s intentions related to significant investments in global sales and marketing, and research and development.

 

  The increase in cost of sales, sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative costs due to an expected rise in domestic health care costs and costs associated with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

  Increased exposure to volatility of foreign exchange rates and estimates of tax rates in future periods.

 

  Plans related to future capital spending.

 

  The sufficiency of existing cash and cash equivalent balances to meet future working capital and capital expenditure requirements.

 

The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth in forward-looking statements. Certain factors that might cause such a difference include risks and uncertainties detailed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section in the 2003 Annual Report to Stockholders and in “Certain Factors Regarding Future Results” included herein as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q.

 

13


Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2003

 

Revenue. The Company’s total revenue increased 15.8% in the 2004 second quarter to $32.0 million from $27.6 million in the 2003 second quarter.

 

On average, for the second quarter of 2004, the U.S. dollar was approximately 7.5% weaker, when measured against the Company’s primary foreign currencies, than for the second quarter of 2003. The weakening resulted in increased revenue and operating income during the 2004 second quarter, as compared with the corresponding 2003 second quarter, of approximately $808,000 and $361,000, respectively.

 

International and domestic revenues, as a percentage of total revenue, were 67.5% and 32.5%, respectively, in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and 65.4% and 34.6%, respectively, in the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

 

Software license revenue increased $2.4 million or 17.1% in the 2004 second quarter to $16.4 million from $14.0 million in the 2003 quarter. This increase is a result of two primary factors. First, the Company had approximately $1.4 million of newly generated software license revenue during the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the second quarter of 2003. Of this amount, approximately $900,000 related to increased sales of non-CFX products and $500,000 related to increased sales of CFX products. Second, the Company experienced a $1.0 million reduction in the adverse impact on reported CFX license revenue related to the accounting for acquired deferred revenue discussed in further detail below.

 

Maintenance and service revenue increased 14.4% in the 2004 quarter to $15.6 million from $13.7 million in the 2003 quarter. This increase in revenue is associated with the increased volume of maintenance contracts with paid-up license sales in recent quarters.

 

In valuing deferred revenue for inclusion on the CFX opening balance sheet as of February 26, 2003, the Company complied with the fair value provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 01-3 “Accounting in a Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree.” In accordance with EITF 01-3, acquired deferred software license revenue of approximately $4.8 million was recorded on the opening balance sheet. This amount was approximately $3.4 million lower than the historical carrying value. Although this purchase accounting requirement has no impact on the Company’s business or cash flow, it adversely impacts the Company’s reported generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) software license revenue post-acquisition. The adverse impact on reported revenue was approximately $70,000 and $192,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, and $1,117,000 and $1,571,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. The impact during the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and December 30, 2003 was approximately $900,000 and $500,000, respectively. The adverse impact on reported revenue is expected to be approximately $70,000 in each of the two quarters remaining in the year ending December 31, 2004.

 

14


Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. The Company’s total cost of sales decreased to $5.0 million, or 15.6% of total revenue in the 2004 second quarter from $6.1 million, or 21.9% of total revenue, in the 2003 second quarter. This decrease related primarily to a $300,000 reduction in third-party royalties and an approximate $300,000 decrease in employment related costs.

 

As a result of the changes in revenue and cost of sales, the Company’s gross profit increased 25.2% to $27.0 million in the 2004 quarter from $21.6 million in the 2003 quarter.

 

Selling and Marketing. Total selling and marketing expenses decreased from $6.1 million, or 22.1% of total revenue in the 2003 quarter, to $6.0 million, or 18.8% of total revenue in the 2004 quarter. The decrease resulted from a reduction in headcount and salary related costs of $300,000 and advertising and rental costs of $200,000, offset by an increase in costs related to the biennial ANSYS Users’ Conference of approximately $300,000.

 

The Company anticipates that it will make significant new investments throughout the remainder of 2004 in its global sales and marketing organization to strengthen its competitive position, to enhance major account sales activities and to support its worldwide sales distribution and marketing strategies.

 

Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased in the 2004 second quarter to $6.5 million, or 20.3% of total revenue, from $6.1 million, or 22.0% of total revenue, in the 2003 quarter. The increase resulted primarily from approximately $300,000 in additional costs related to incentive compensation.

 

The Company has traditionally invested significant resources in research and development activities and intends to continue to make significant investments in this area.

 

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased from $3.1 million, or 11.3% of total revenue in the 2003 second quarter, to $3.5 million, or 11.1% of total revenue in the 2004 second quarter. This increase was primarily the result of a $300,000 increase in incentive compensation and a $200,000 increase in facility-related costs, as well as $100,000 of additional compliance costs associated with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

15


The Company maintains commercial insurance to protect against and manage the risks involved in conducting business. The cost to obtain insurance coverage for such risks has significantly increased due to the environment within the commercial insurance industry. When the Company renewed its U.S. contract for employee health insurance coverage in 2004, the new contract resulted in significantly higher health insurance costs than in prior years. Based on this contract and the general trend in domestic health care costs, these costs are expected to continue to significantly increase in future periods. Because these insurance costs relate to personnel, they are allocated to each functional area of the Company and will increase cost of sales, sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses in future periods.

 

On July 30, 2002 the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act contains far-reaching corporate governance reforms and new disclosure requirements for public companies. Certain of the Act’s provisions became effective immediately, while other provisions will be implemented through December 31, 2004. Costs to comply with the provisions of the Act, including legal, accounting and consulting fees, will result in higher general and administrative expenses in future periods.

 

Other Income. Other income decreased by $626,000 from $772,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 to $146,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2004, the Company had a net foreign exchange loss of $209,000 as compared with a gain of $654,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The majority of the net foreign exchange loss from the quarter ended June 30, 2004 resulted from the weakening of the U.S. Dollar versus the British Pound and the Indian Rupee.

 

Because the CFX acquisition consisted primarily of non-U.S. locations, the Company, for the foreseeable future, will have increased exposure to volatility of foreign exchange rates. The Company does not use any futures or derivative contracts to manage foreign exchange risk. The Company is most impacted by movements among and between the Canadian Dollar, British Pound, Euro, Indian Rupee, Japanese Yen and the U.S. Dollar.

 

Interest and dividend income, on cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, was $311,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, compared to $155,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This increase is a result of an increased level of funds invested in 2004 as compared with 2003.

 

Income Tax Provision. The Company’s effective rates of taxation were 30.0% in the second quarter of 2004 and 34.0% in the second quarter of 2003. These rates are lower than the federal and state combined statutory rate as a result of export benefits, as well as the generation of research and experimentation credits. The Company expects that the effective tax rate will be in the range of 30% - 31% for the year ending December 31, 2004.

 

16


The Internal Revenue Service has examined the Company’s federal income tax returns for all years through 2000. The IRS is currently examining the Company’s federal income tax returns for the year 2001.

 

In November 2000, the United States enacted the Foreign Sales Corporation (“FSC”) Repeal and Extraterritorial Income Exclusion Act (the “ETI Act”) in response to a challenge from the World Trade Organization (“WTO”) that the existing tax benefits provided by foreign sales corporations were prohibited tax subsidies. The ETI Act generally repealed the foreign sales corporation and implemented an extraterritorial income (“ETI”) tax benefit. Upon introduction of the ETI tax benefit, the European Union (“EU”) stated that it did not believe the ETI Act provisions bring U.S. tax law into WTO-compliance and asked the WTO to rule on the matter. On August 30, 2002, the WTO ruled that the EU may impose up to $4 billion per year in retaliatory duties against U.S. exports.

 

In March of 2004, the EU decided to initially impose a duty of 5% on 1,608 U.S. products. The duty will rise automatically by 1% point each month until it reaches a ceiling of 17% in March 2005. At that point, the EU will make a determination on its next course of action if the United States still has not complied with the WTO ruling. As of June 30, 2004, ANSYS, Inc.’s products are not included on the list of those sanctioned by the EU.

 

During the second quarter of 2004, the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate each passed a different version of FSC/ETI replacement legislation – the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the Jumpstart Our Business Strength (JOBS) Act, respectively. Both bills retain FSC grandfather rules and ETI benefits for transactions in the ordinary course of business under binding contracts with unrelated persons in effect on January 13, 2002 under the House bill and September 17, 2003 under the Senate bill. The future tax benefits associated with the pending legislation are summarized as follows:

 

   

American Jobs Creation Act


 

Jumpstart Our Business Strength Act


2004   No Effect   80% of Base1 applicable after enactment
2005   80% of otherwise-applicable benefits   80% of Base1
2006   60% of otherwise-applicable benefits   60% of Base1

 

1 The “Base” is the average of 2000, 2001 and 2002 FSC/ETI benefits.

 

A Joint Conference Committee is reconciling both bills into a single piece of legislation for each House of Congress to vote upon.

 

In fiscal year 2003, export benefits reduced the Company’s effective tax rate by approximately 6.3%. The above-referenced legislation and any other prospective changes regarding tax benefits associated with the Company’s export sales or other federal and state tax planning vehicles may adversely impact the Company’s effective tax rate and decrease its net income in future periods.

 

17


The U.S. Research and Experimentation Tax Credit (the “R&D credit”) expired on June 30, 2004. If the tax credit is not extended, or if the ultimate benefit derived by the Company upon extension is reduced, the Company’s effective tax rate will increase and its net income will decrease in future periods. In 2003, the Company received approximately $500,000 in tax savings related to the R&D credit.

 

Net Income. The Company’s net income in the 2004 quarter was $7.6 million as compared to $4.5 million in the 2003 quarter. Diluted earnings per share increased to $.46 in the 2004 quarter as compared to $.29 in the 2003 quarter as a result of the increase in net income. The weighted average shares used in computing diluted earnings per share were 16.5 million in the 2004 quarter and 15.9 million in the 2003 quarter.

 

18


Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2003

 

Revenue. The Company’s total revenue increased 21.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $63.3 million as compared with $52.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The 2003 year-to-date post-acquisition CFX revenue was approximately $6.8 million, as compared with the 2004 year-to-date CFX-related revenue of $13.6 million.

 

On average, for the six-month period of 2004, the U.S. dollar was approximately 9.7% weaker, when measured against the Company’s primary foreign currencies, than for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The weakening resulted in increased revenue and operating income during the 2004 period, as compared with the corresponding 2003 period, of approximately $1.7 million and $855,000, respectively.

 

International and domestic revenues, as a percentage of total revenue, were 68.1% and 31.9%, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 65.2% and 34.8%, respectively, in the six months ended June 30, 2003.

 

Software license revenue increased $6.3 million or 23.8% in the first six months of 2004 to $32.7 million from $26.4 million in the first six months of 2003. Approximately $3.5 million of the increase relates to higher revenue from CFX products, a portion of which relates to a full six months of CFX revenue in 2004 as compared to four months in 2003 and the remaining portion is a result of a $1.4 million reduction in the adverse impact on reported CFX license revenue related to the accounting for acquired deferred revenue which is further discussed below. Also contributing to the increase was approximately $1.4 million in newly generated software license revenue from the Company’s non-CFX products.

 

Maintenance and service revenue increased 18.6% in the first six months of 2004 to $30.7 million from $25.8 million in the 2003 period. This change was primarily the result of an increase of $3.4 million in maintenance revenue related to the ANSYS mechanical products and the contracts sold in association with paid-up license sales in recent quarters. Also contributing to the increase was an additional $1.0 million in CFX-related maintenance revenue and of $900,000 in CFX-related service revenue.

 

As previously mentioned above, in accordance with EITF 01-3, acquired deferred software license revenue of approximately $4.8 million was recorded on the opening balance sheet. This amount was approximately $3.4 million lower than the historical carrying value. The adverse impact on reported revenue under GAAP was approximately $192,000 and $1,570,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

 

19


Cost of Sales and Gross Profit. The Company’s total cost of sales decreased to $10.2 million, or 16.0% of total revenue, in the 2004 six-month period as compared to $10.7 million, or 20.4% of total revenue, for the 2003 six-month period. The decrease in the 2004 six-month period as compared to the 2003 period was primarily related to a reduction of $700,000 in salary and employment related costs, a $400,000 decline in costs associated with technical and other consulting support and a $200,000 decrease in third party royalties. These changes were partially offset by an additional $1.1 million increase in costs associated with CFX due to a full six months of activity in the current year as compared to only four months of activity in the prior year.

 

As a result of the changes in revenue and cost of sales, the Company’s gross profit increased 27.9% to $53.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $41.6 million in the corresponding 2003 period.

 

Selling and Marketing. Total selling and marketing expenses increased by $500,000 from $11.6 million, or 22.2% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2003, to $12.1 million, or 19.1% of total revenue in the same period of 2004. The increase resulted primarily from approximately $700,000 in additional costs related to CFX, mainly the result of the inclusion of a full six months of CFX operational activity in 2004, compared to only four months in 2003, $400,000 from the biennial ANSYS Users’ Conference, offset by a $300,000 decrease in salary and headcount related costs and a $200,000 decrease in third-party commissions.

 

Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased in the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $12.8 million, or 20.3% of total revenue, from $11.7 million, or 22.5% of total revenue, in the 2003 corresponding period. The increase resulted primarily from approximately $850,000 in additional costs related to CFX, mainly the result of the inclusion of a full six months of CFX operational activity in 2004, as well as an increase in overall employee compensation of $150,000.

 

Amortization. Amortization expense increased to $572,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 from $498,000 in the same period during the prior year. The increase relates to a full six months of amortization expense associated with certain intangible assets acquired in the CFX acquisition in 2004 as compared to only four months in 2003.

 

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased from $5.8 million, or 11.1% of total revenue in the 2003 first six months, to $7.0 million or 11.1% of total revenue in the six-month period of 2004. The 2004 period includes increased costs of approximately $500,000 related to a full versus partial period of CFX expenses, approximately $500,000 related to increased facilities costs and $200,000 in higher employee compensation.

 

20


Other Income. Other income decreased by $930,000 from $1.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003 to $376,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2004. During the first six months of 2003, the Company had foreign currency translation gains of approximately $1.0 million, primarily a result of the weakening of the U.S. Dollar versus the British Pound. During the first six months of 2004, the Company had foreign currency translation losses of approximately $200,000. Investment income was approximately $200,000 higher during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared with the comparable 2003 period. Larger cash balances invested, in addition to higher interest rates, caused the increase in interest income.

 

Income Tax Provision. The Company’s effective rates of taxation were 30.0% and 34.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These rates are lower than the federal and state combined statutory rate as a result of export benefits, as well as the generation of research and experimentation credits. The Company expects that the effective tax rate will be in the range of 30% — 31% for the year ending December 31, 2004. As previously mentioned, further legislative actions may adversely impact the Company’s effective tax rate and decrease its net income in future periods.

 

Net Income. The Company’s net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $14.7 million as compared to $8.8 million in the 2003 six-month period. Diluted earnings per share increased to $.90 in the 2004 period as compared to $.56 in the 2003 period as a result of the increase in net income. The weighted average shares used in computing diluted earnings per share were 16.4 million in the 2004 period and 15.7 million in the 2003 period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2004, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling $109.4 million and working capital of $90.9 million, as compared to cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $83.0 million and working capital of $69.1 million at December 31, 2003. The short-term investments are generally investment grade and liquid, which allows the Company to minimize interest rate risk and to facilitate liquidity in the event of an immediate cash requirement.

 

The Company’s operating activities provided cash of $26.3 million and $21.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The $4.7 million increase in the Company’s cash flow from operations in the 2004 six-month period as compared to the comparable 2003 period was primarily the result of $6.0 million in increased earnings partially offset by net increases in other working capital.

 

The Company’s investing activities used net cash of $17.5 million and $24.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. In 2004, the Company purchased approximately $15.1 million more in short-term investments than such maturing investments. During the corresponding period of 2003, the Company purchased only short-term investments to replace maturing securities. Additionally, during the 2003 period, the Company had a cash outlay of $21.7 million for the acquisition of CFX. The Company currently plans additional capital spending of approximately $1.5 to $2.0 million throughout the remainder of 2004; however, the level of spending will be dependent upon various factors, including growth of the business and general economic conditions.

 

21


Financing activities provided cash of $2.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared with cash provided of $4.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003. The proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $1.9 million lower in the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared with the corresponding 2003 period.

 

The Company believes that existing cash and cash equivalent balances of $89.3 million, together with short-term investment balances and cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital and capital expenditure requirements through the remainder of fiscal 2004. The Company’s future cash requirements may be obtained through additional equity or debt financings. There can be no assurance that such financings can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all.

 

The Company does not have any special purpose entities or off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2004 the Company had no borrowings under an uncommitted and unsecured $10.0 million line of credit.

 

In May of 2004, the Company entered into the first amendment to its corporate headquarters lease agreement, with an effective date of January 1, 2004. This amendment caused a significant change to the corporate office lease contractual obligations as of January 1, 2004 which were previously reported in the Company’s Form 10-K. Such changes are summarized below:

 

          Payments Due by Period

(in thousands)    Total

   Within 1 Year

   2-3 Years

   4-5 Years

   After 5 Years

After Amendment

     14,779      1,241      2,481      2,481      8,576

 

There were no other material changes to the Company’s significant contractual obligations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Market Risk

 

As the Company continues to expand its direct sales presence in international regions, the portion of its revenue, expenses, cash, accounts receivable and payment obligations denominated in foreign currencies continues to increase. As a result, changes in currency exchange rates from time to time may affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

 

No material change has occurred in the Company’s market risk subsequent to December 31, 2003.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company has evaluated, with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries during the period covered by this report.

 

In 2002, the Company created a Disclosure Review Committee to assist in the quarterly evaluation of the Company’s internal disclosure controls and procedures and in the review of the Company’s periodic filings under the Exchange Act. The membership of the Disclosure Review Committee consists of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Controller, General Counsel, Treasurer, Vice President of Sales and Services, Vice President of Human Resources and Business Unit General Managers. This committee is advised by external counsel, particularly on SEC-related matters. Additionally, other members of the Company’s global management team advise the committee with respect to disclosure via a sub-certification process.

 

From time to time, the Company reviews the disclosure controls and procedures, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that the Company’s systems evolve with its business. There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter or the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
