NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, as defined below, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

 

The unaudited consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2013 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The interim financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with that Report.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of P&F Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries, (“P&F” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the financial statements and related footnotes have been reclassified to conform to classifications used in the current year.

 

The Company

 

The Company operates in two primary lines of business, or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).

 

Tools

 

The Company conducts its Tools business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turn currently operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”).

 

Florida Pneumatic is engaged in the importation and sale of pneumatic hand tools, primarily for the retail, industrial and automotive markets, and the importation and sale of compressor air filters.  Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool division (“Berkley”), a product line which includes pipe and bolt dies, pipe taps, wrenches, vises and stands, pipe and tubing cutting equipment, hydrostatic test pumps, and replacement electrical components for a widely-used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines.

 

Hy-Tech manufactures and distributes its own line of industrial pneumatic tools. Hy-Tech also produces and markets impact wrenches, grinders, drills, and motors. Further, it also manufactures tools to customer unique specifications. Its customers include refineries, chemical plants, power generation, heavy construction, oil and mining companies. In addition, Hy-Tech manufactures an extensive line of pneumatic tool replacement parts that are sold competitively to the original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”). It also manufactures and distributes high pressure stoppers for hydrostatic testing fabricated pipe, gears, sprockets, splines and racks. It also produces a line of siphons.

 

Hardware

 

 The Company conducts its Hardware business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). Countrywide conducts its business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”). Nationwide is an importer and manufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware and accessories, including rollers, hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and door closers.

 

Additionally, Nationwide marketed a Kitchen and bath product line. However, effective November 12, 2013, Nationwide sold to an unrelated third party all inventory, intangibles and certain fixed assets attributable to its Kitchen and bath product line. 

 

 

Management Estimates  

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in those financial statements.  Certain significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, inventory, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, income taxes and deferred taxes.  Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.  Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate.  As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions.  Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.  

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards  

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 2 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per common share is based only on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the effect of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options, unless the effect on earnings is antidilutive.

 

Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock”). The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.

 

The following table sets forth the elements of basic and diluted earnings per common share:

 

		Three months ended
		March 31,
		2014				2013
Numerator:
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per common share:
Net income		$	462,000			$	621,000
Denominator:
Denominator for basic earnings per share weighted average common shares outstanding			3,694,000				3,673,000
Dilutive securities (1)			184,000				187,000
Denominator for diluted earnings per share weighted average common shares outstanding			3,878,000				3,860,000

 

(1)    Dilutive securities consist of “in the money” stock options.

 

 

At March 31, 2014 and 2013 and during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, there were outstanding stock options whose exercise prices were higher than the average market values of the underlying Common Stock for the period. These options are anti-dilutive and are excluded from the computation of earnings per share. The weighted average of anti-dilutive stock options outstanding was as follows:

 

		Three months ended
		March 31,
		2014				2013
Weighted average anti-dilutive stock options outstanding			299,000				229,000

 

NOTE 3 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

During the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not grant any stock options or issue any Common Stock awards.

 

The following is a summary of the changes in outstanding options during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014:

 

		Option Shares				Weighted Average Exercise Price				Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)				Aggregate Intrinsic Value

Vested			(500	)			2.80
Forfeited			—				—
Non-vested options, March 31, 2014			121,000			$	5.39

 

The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan as of March 31, 2014 was 199,512. At March 31, 2014, there were 113,500 options outstanding issued under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan and 518,188 options outstanding issued under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan.

 

Treasury Stock

 

On March 31, 2014 the Company received 792 shares of its Common Stock, tendered as payment for the exercise of options to purchase 1,500 shares of Common Stock. The value of the tendered shares of Common Stock, was approximately $6,000, and was based on the fair value of such shares, determined by closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the day prior.   The Company recorded this transaction as an increase to its Treasury Stock.

NOTE 7 - DEBT

 

SHORT-TERM LOANS

 

P&F, along with Florida Pneumatic, Hy-Tech and Nationwide, as borrowers, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement in October 2010, as amended (“Credit Agreement”), with Capital One Leverage Finance Corporation, as agent (“COLF”). The Credit Agreement expires December 19, 2017, (the “Maturity Date”), and has a maximum borrowing limit of $29,423,000.  The Credit Agreement provides for a Revolver Loan (“Revolver”) with a maximum borrowing of $20,000,000.  Direct borrowings under the Revolver are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, mortgages on its real property located in Cranberry, PA, Jupiter, FL and Tampa, FL (“Real Property”),  inventory and equipment, and are cross-guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). Revolver borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement (“Base Rate”), plus the Applicable Margin (the “Applicable Margin”), as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to the Applicable Margin, is at the option of the Company, subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings. 

 

The balance of Revolver borrowings outstanding was $2,250,000 and $360,000, at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Applicable Margins added to Revolver borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate were 1.75% and 0.75%, respectively at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

The Company is required to provide, among other things, monthly financial statements, monthly borrowing base certificates and certificates of compliance with various financial covenants. The Company believes it is in compliance with all covenants. As part of the Credit Agreement, if an event of default occurs, COLF has the option to, among other things, increase the interest rate by two percent per annum during the period of default.

 

LONG-TERM LOANS

 

The Credit Agreement also provides for a $7,000,000 Term Loan (the “Term Loan”), which is secured by mortgages on the Real Property, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.  Term Loan borrowings incur interest at LIBOR or the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margins, which were 3.00% and 2.00%, respectively, at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Additionally, the Company borrowed $380,000 and $519,000 in March 2012 and September 2012, respectively, as loans primarily for machinery and equipment (“Capex Term Loans”). Applicable Margins added to these Capex Term Loans at both March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were 3.00% and 2.00%, for borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate, respectively.

Business

 

P&F Industries, Inc. (“P&F”) is a Delaware corporation incorporated on April 19, 1963. P&F and each of its subsidiaries are herein referred to collectively as the “Company.” In addition, the words “we”, “our” and “us” refer to the Company. The Company operates in two primary lines of business, or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).

 

Tools

 

We conduct our Tools business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turn currently operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”).

 

Florida Pneumatic is engaged in the importation and sale of pneumatic hand tools, primarily for the retail, industrial and automotive markets, and the importation and sale of compressor air filters. Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool division (“Berkley”), a line of pipe cutting and threading tools, wrenches and replacement electrical components for a widely-used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines.    

 

Hy-Tech manufactures and distributes pneumatic tools and parts for industrial applications. Hy-Tech manufactures approximately ninety types of industrial pneumatic tools, ranging in price from $300 to $7,000, under the names “ATP”, “Thaxton”, “THOR” and “Eureka”, as well as under the trade names or trademarks of other private label customers. This line of products includes grinders, drills, saws, impact wrenches and pavement breakers. Additionally, Hy-Tech manufactures and distributes high pressure stoppers for hydrostatic testing of fabricated pipe, gears, sprockets, splines, and racks. Their business is not seasonal, but it may be subject to significant periodic changes resulting from scheduled shutdowns in refineries, power generation facilities and chemical plants.    

 

 

Hardware  

 

We conduct our Hardware business through Countrywide. Countrywide conducts its business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”).   

 

Nationwide is an importer and manufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware, and accessories including rollers, hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and door closers. Nationwide’s products are sold through in-house sales personnel and manufacturers’ representatives to distributors, retailers and original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers. End users of Nationwide’s products include contractors, home builders, pool and patio distributors, OEM/private label customers and general consumers.  

 

 Effective November 12, 2013, Nationwide sold to an unrelated third party, all inventory, intangibles and certain fixed assets attributable to its Kitchen and bath product line.  The net impact of this transaction was immaterial to the Company’s operations.

  

Overview

 

During the first quarter of 2014, our results of operations were impacted by a number a factors.

·

The most significant factor in the decline in revenue is the result of the major roll-out to The Home Depot (“THD”), which comprised the initial stocking of inventory that did not reoccur this year.

·

Further, we believe the harsh, extensive winter weather adversely impacted the performance of all of our operating subsidiaries, particularly during the months of January and February 2014. We continue to encounter an industry-wide general softness in the pneumatic tools market, both at Hy-Tech and Florida Pneumatic. At the present time it is difficult to predict when this sluggishness will subside.

·

However, our Hardware segment’s operating income improved 9.5% over the prior year, despite lower revenue, which was the result of the sale of the Kitchen and bath product line in November 2013.

 

KEY INDICATORS    

 

Economic Measures    

 

Much of our business is driven by the ebbs and flows of the general economic conditions in both the United States and, to a lesser extent, abroad.  Further, it is important to note that a major portion of our revenue is consumer driven. Our Tools segment does not focus on, or utilize specific economic measures or indicators, it therefore focuses on marketing its products to a wide array of customer types including, but not limited to large retailers, aerospace manufacturers, large and small resellers of pneumatic tools and parts; and automotive related customers. In addition to general economic conditions, our Hardware segment utilizes such economic measures as new housing starts, and other indices that measure home repairs and the like.

 

Another factor relevant to us is the cost of the raw materials in our products. Specifically, with respect to our Tools segment, key raw materials include metals, especially various types of steel and aluminum. The costs of raw materials in our Hardware products, most of which are made overseas, include such materials as metals, plastics and magnets. Also important is the value of the dollar in relation to the Taiwan dollar, as we purchase a significant portion of our products from Taiwan in the local currency. Purchases from Chinese sources are made in U.S. dollars. However, if the Chinese currency, the Renminbi, were to be revalued against the dollar, there could be a significant negative impact on the cost of our products.  

 

The cost and availability of a quality labor pool in the countries where products and components are manufactured, both overseas as well as in the United States, could materially affect our overall results. 

 

 

Operating Measures    

 

Key operating measures we use to manage our operating segments are: orders; shipments; development of new products; customer retention; inventory levels and productivity. These measures are recorded and monitored at various intervals, including daily, weekly and monthly. To the extent these measures are relevant; they are discussed in the detailed sections for each operating segment.   

 

Financial Measures    

 

Key financial measures we use to evaluate the results of our business include: various revenue metrics; gross margin; selling, general and administrative expenses; earnings before interest and taxes; operating cash flows and capital expenditures; return on sales; return on assets; days sales outstanding and inventory turns. These measures are reviewed at monthly, quarterly and annual intervals and compared to historical periods as well as established objectives. To the extent that these measures are relevant, they are discussed in the detailed sections for each operating segment.   

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

  

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain of these accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, warranty reserves and taxes. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting policies are further described below.

 

 

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those discussed in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

All revenue is generated in U.S. dollars and is not impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Unless otherwise discussed below, we believe that our relationships with our key customers, given current economic conditions, remain satisfactory. There were no major trends or uncertainties that had, or we could reasonably expect could have, a material impact on our revenue.   Further, there was no unusual or infrequent event, transaction or any significant economic change that materially affected our results of operations. However, we believe that the prolonged, inclement weather during the first quarter of 2014 negatively impacted our results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014.

 

The table below provides an analysis of our net revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

Revenue  

 

		Three months ended March 31,

Consolidated		$	15,932,000			$	20,709,000			$	(4,777,000	)			(23.1	)%

 

Tools

 

Florida Pneumatic markets its air tool products to two primary sectors within the pneumatic tool market; retail and industrial/catalog. Additionally, Florida Pneumatic also markets, to a much lesser degree, air tools to the automotive market. It also generates revenue from its Berkley products line as well as a line of air filters and other OEM parts (“Other”).

 

		Three months ended March 31,
		2014								2013								Increase (decrease)
		Revenue				Percent of  revenue				Revenue				Percent of revenue				$				%
Retail customers		$	5,291,000				70.8	%		$	8,878,000				77.5	%		$	(3,587,000	)			(40.4	)%
Industrial/catalog			1,505,000				20.1				1,919,000				16.7				(414,000	)			(21.6	)
Automotive			296,000				4.0				267,000				2.3				29,000				10.9
Other			383,000				5.1				398,000				3.5				(15,000	)			(3.8	)
Total		$	7,475,000				100.0	%		$	11,462,000				100.0	%		$	(3,987,000	)			(34.8	)%

  

The primary cause of the decline in Retail revenue at Florida Pneumatic is due to the initial roll-out to THD occurring in the first quarter of 2013, compared to first quarter of 2014 shipments to THD, which were at normal/expected replenishment levels. Additionally, there was a slight decline in its Sears Holdings Corporation revenue further impacting our quarterly results. The decline in the Industrial/catalog revenue was due in part to an on-going reduction of orders from our catalog customers. We believe certain catalog customers have added additional air tool suppliers, thus reducing our revenue from these customers. Industrial revenue remains sluggish, most notably in the aerospace market. We believe this weakness may continue at least through the first half of 2014. First quarter of 2014 Automotive product revenue improved when compared to the same period in 2013. Florida Pneumatic’s Other revenue, which includes its Berkley product line, air filters and other OEM products, declined when compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to Florida Pneumatic’s decision to place greater emphasis on expanding its other product lines.

    

 

Hy-Tech focuses primarily on the industrial sector of the pneumatic tools market.  Hy-Tech manufactures and markets its own value-added line of air tools and parts, as well as distributes a complementary line of sockets (“ATP”).

 

		Three months ended March 31,
		2014								2013								Increase (decrease)
		Revenue				Percent of revenue				Revenue				Percent of revenue				$				%
ATP		$	2,562,000				68.9	%		$	2,860,000				68.6	%		$	(298,000	)			(10.4	)%
Other			451,000				12.2				487,000				11.7				(36,000	)			(7.4	)
Major customer			703,000				18.9				820,000				19.7				(117,000	)			(14.3	)
Total		$	3,716,000				100.0	%		$	4,167,000				100.0	%		$	(451,000	)			(10.8	)%

 

Primary factors contributing to the net decline in ATP product line revenue include, but are not limited to the prolonged harsh winter conditions across the United States, and to a lesser extent the placement of purchase orders from overseas customers that occurred in the first quarter of 2013, which we anticipate will occur later in 2014. Hy-Tech’s Other revenue, which consists of the sale of gears, sprockets, splines, plus hydraulic stoppers, as well as other machine-made parts and tools, declined due primarily to weaker than expected gear volume. Revenue from its Major customer declined, as we believe this customer continues to reduce its world-wide inventory levels.

 

Hardware  

 

Our Hardware segment, which currently consists of only Nationwide, generates revenue from the sale of fence and gate hardware, kitchen and bath accessories, OEM products and patio hardware.  

 

		Three months ended March 31,
		2014								2013								Increase (decrease)
		Revenue				Percent of revenue				Revenue				Percent of revenue				$				%
Fence and gate hardware		$	3,932,000				82.9	%		$	3,639,000				71.6	%		$	293,000				8.1	%
OEM			399,000				8.4				349,000				6.9				50,000				14.3
Patio			410,000				8.7				390,000				7.7				20,000				5.1
Kitchen and bath			—				—				702,000				13.8				(702,000	)			(100.0	)
Total		$	4,741,000				100.0	%		$	5,080,000				100.0	%		$	(339,000	)			(6.7	)%

     

Fence and gate hardware continue to be the driving force at Nationwide. Its growth is due primarily to an expanding customer base as well as new product releases. When comparing the first quarter of 2014 to the same period in 2013, the OEM product line revenue increase is due primarily to inventory level adjustments at a major customer, as well as slight up-tick in new home construction. The increase in patio revenue is due primarily to increased activity in the sale of foreclosed home units occurring primarily in Florida.  

 

In November 2013, Nationwide sold all inventory, intangibles and certain fixed assets attributable to its Kitchen and bath product line to an unrelated third party. The net impact of this sale was immaterial to the Company’s operations.

The primary factor contributing to the slight decline in Florida Pneumatic’s gross margin is product mix. However, the primary factor to the reduced gross profit was the result of lower revenue, as discussed earlier. Hy-Tech’s base gross margin improved slightly; however, lower absorption of manufacturing overhead due to lower machine hours caused its overall gross margins to be lower than a year ago. The reduced gross margin on lower revenue resulted in a 14.1% decline in Hy-Tech’s gross profit.

 

Hardware

 

First quarter 2014 gross margin at Nationwide improved primarily due to the elimination of the Kitchen & bath product line, which generally provided a lower gross margin than that of Nationwide’s other product lines. However, due to the revenue reduction of $339,000, Nationwide’s fiscal first quarter of 2014 gross profit declined $29,000, compared to the same period in 2013.

 

Selling and general and administrative expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses, (“SG&A”) include salaries and related costs, commissions, travel, administrative facilities, communications costs and promotional expenses for our direct sales and marketing staff, administrative and executive salaries and related benefits, legal, accounting and other professional fees as well as general corporate overhead and certain engineering expenses.

 

During the first quarter of 2014, our SG&A was $5,227,000, or 32.8% of revenue, compared to $6,610,000, or 31.9% of revenue during the same three-month period in 2013. A significant factor contributing to the decrease in SG&A is the reduction of $552,000 in incremental variable costs associated with the decline in Retail revenue at Florida Pneumatic, which includes among other costs, commissions, warranty costs, freight out and advertising/promotional fees. Additionally, included in our first quarter 2013 SG&A, was a one-time fee of $700,000 incurred by Florida Pneumatic in connection with the initial roll-out to THD. Further, our first quarter of 2014 SG&A compensation, which is comprised of base salaries and wages, accrued performance-based bonus incentives, associated payroll taxes and employee benefits decreased by $68,000, when compared to the same period in the prior year. Lastly, depreciation and amortization expenses declined an aggregate $32,000.

 

Interest

 

Our interest expense during the first quarter of 2014 was $89,000, compared to $131,000 for the same period in the prior year. The most significant factor affecting interest expense was a reduction in the applicable loan margins that are added to both our LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement borrowings. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for further discussion on the applicable margin rate reductions. The average balance of short-term borrowings during the first quarter of 2014 was $1,116,000, compared to $7,244,000 during the same three-month period in 2013.   Included in our interest expense is amortization expense of debt financing costs of $22,000 in both the first quarter of 2014 and 2013.

 

 

Income Taxes

 

At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company estimates its effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. This estimate is used to determine the income tax provision on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. As a result, our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 was 35.7% and 37.5%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for both periods was affected primarily by state taxes and nondeductible expenses.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

  

Our cash flows from operations can be somewhat cyclical, typically with the greatest demand in the first and third quarters followed by positive cash flows in the second and fourth quarter as receivables and inventories trend down.  We monitor average days sales outstanding, inventory turns, estimated future purchasing requirements and capital expenditures to project liquidity needs and evaluate return on assets employed.

     

We gauge our liquidity and financial stability by various measurements, some of which are shown in the following table:  

 

		March 31, 2014				December 31, 2013
Working Capital		$	27,731,000			$	26,777,000
Current Ratio			4.71 to 1				4.65 to 1
Shareholders’ Equity		$	39,290,000			$	38,730,000

 

Credit facility

 

P&F, along with Florida Pneumatic, Hy-Tech and Nationwide, as borrowers, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement in October 2010, as amended (“Credit Agreement”), with Capital One Leverage Finance Corporation, as agent (“COLF”). The Credit Agreement expires December 19, 2017, (the “Maturity Date”), and has a maximum borrowing limit of $29,423,000.  The Credit Agreement provides for a Revolver Loan (“Revolver”) with a maximum borrowing of $20,000,000.  Direct borrowings under the Revolver are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, mortgages on its real property located in Cranberry, PA, Jupiter, FL and Tampa, FL (“Real Property”),  inventory and equipment, and are cross-guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). Revolver borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement (“Base Rate”), plus the Applicable Margin (the “Applicable Margin”), as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to the Applicable Margin, is at the option of the Company, subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings. 

 

The balance of Revolver borrowings outstanding was $2,250,000 and $360,000, at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Applicable Margins added to Revolver borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate were 1.75% and 0.75%, respectively at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

 

The Credit Agreement also provides for a $7,000,000 Term Loan (the “Term Loan”), which is secured by mortgages on the Real Property, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.  The balance due on the Term Loan at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $6,650,000 and $6,720,000, respectively. The Term Loan is repaid approximately $23,000 each month, with the remaining balance due at the Maturity Date.  Term Loan borrowings incur interest at LIBOR or the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margins, which were 3.0% and 2.0%, respectively, at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Additionally, we borrowed $380,000 and $519,000 in March 2012 and September 2012, respectively, as loans primarily for machinery and equipment (“Capex Term Loans”). The repayment of these two Capex Term Loans is based on sixty-month amortization periods, resulting in repayments of approximately $6,000 and $9,000, respectively. The balance of these Capex Loans in the aggregate at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $598,000 and $643,000, respectively. Applicable Margins added to these Capex Term Loans at both March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were 3.0% and 2.0%, for borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate, respectively.

 

Cash flows

 

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, our net cash increased $170,000 to $583,000 from $413,000 at December 31, 2013.  Our total bank debt at March 31, 2014 was $9,498,000, compared to $7,723,000 at December 31, 2013.   Approximately $1.9 million of the increase in bank debt is in revolver borrowings, which coincides with our seasonal need for cash during the first quarter. The aforementioned also contributed to the increase in the percent of the total debt to total book capitalization (total debt divided by total debt plus equity), which at March 31, 2014 was 19.5%, compared to 16.6% at December 31, 2013. As we continue to generate cash from operations, barring unexpected events, we believe that our short-term borrowings during the next several quarters should decline to at or below amounts at December 31, 2013 levels. It should be noted that our short-term borrowings and total debt to total book capitalization ratio at March 31, 2013 were $10,683,000 and 34.0%, respectively.

 

Our capital spending was $182,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, compared to $143,000 during the same period in the prior year.  Capital expenditures for the balance of 2014 are expected to be approximately $1,500,000, some of which may be financed through our credit facilities or financed through independent third party financial institutions. The remaining 2014 capital expenditures will primarily be for expansion of existing product lines and replacement of equipment.

 

Customer concentration

 

Within our Tools segment we have two retail customers that in the aggregate, as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, accounted for 44.1% and 58.3%, respectively, of our consolidated accounts receivable.

 

We believe that the loss of one or both of these customers would negatively impact our working capital, but would not affect our ability to remain a going concern.

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 4.             Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2014.

  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
