In connection with a 1999 acquisition, the Company issued a $5.0 million non-interest bearing term note to the previous owner as partial consideration for the purchase.  Under the terms of the note, a portion of the payments may be due based on the operating results of the acquired business.  The Company’s original discount of the note was based on a 15% effective interest rate and estimates of the operating results of the acquired business.  Due to the uncertain timing of the payout of this term note, the note represents a form of contingent consideration paid for the acquired business.  As a result, the Company adjusted its estimates related to the timing of the payout of the term note, which resulted in recording an additional discount of $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2003.

 

Refer to Note 10 for a discussion on the Company’s new senior secured credit facility.

 

5.  ACQUISITIONS AND EQUITY INVESTMENT

 

Effective January 1, 2003, the Company purchased a 60% interest in a newly formed limited liability company, WBC Construction, LLC (“WBC”), for approximately $22.9 million in cash, net of post closing adjustments and the issuance of 70,053 shares of BMHC common stock.  The other 40% interest is owned by Willard Brothers Construction, Inc. and its owners, A. Bruce Willard and Danny L. Willard.  WBC contracts with residential production builders in Florida to construct the slab and structural shell of homes.

 

Under the purchase agreement, BMHC will have the option to purchase the remaining 40% interest in WBC from January 16, 2006 through January 16, 2009 and the principals of Willard Brothers Construction, Inc. have the option to require BMHC to purchase the remaining 40% of WBC from January 16, 2007 through January 16, 2009.  The purchase price for the remaining 40% will generally be based on a multiple of historical earnings.  If the fair value of the net assets to be acquired is less than the amount payable under the required purchase option, the Company would record a loss.

 

The Company has accounted for its investment in WBC using the equity method of accounting because the minority owners have certain approval and

 

8



 

other rights that preclude consolidation.  Refer to the Note 10 discussion regarding the amendment to the operating agreement in the third quarter of 2003, eliminating approval and other such rights.

 

Condensed income statement and financial position information for the Company’s equity investment in WBC is as follows (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2003, the Company’s investment in WBC exceeded its pro-rata share of net assets by approximately $22.6 million.  Under the equity method of accounting, the Company allocated the excess of its investment over its proportionate ownership interest in the net assets of WBC to the assets and liabilities of WBC based on their estimated fair values at the date of the investment.  The excess of this investment over the estimated fair value of the net assets of WBC owned by the Company was considered goodwill and other intangible assets.  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is not subject to amortization.  Other intangible assets with a finite life, specifically customer relationships of approximately $5.8 million, are being amortized over a ten year period.

 

On July 1, 2002, the Company purchased a 51% interest in a newly formed partnership, KBI Norcal, for approximately $5.8 million in cash, $0.8 million of assumed debt and the issuance of 34,364 shares of BMHC common stock.  The other 49% interest is owned by RJ Norcal, LLC, a limited liability company

owned by Robert Garcia and John Volkman.  KBI Norcal provides turnkey framing services in Northern California.

 

Under the purchase agreement, BMHC will have the option to purchase the remaining 49% interest in KBI Norcal from July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2008 and the principals of RJ Norcal, LLC have the option to require BMHC to purchase the remaining 49% of KBI Norcal from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2008.  The purchase price for the remaining 49% will generally be based on a multiple of historical earnings.  If the fair value of the net assets to be acquired is less than the amount payable under the required purchase option, the Company would record a loss.  As of June 30, 2003, the purchase price would be approximately $7.5 million and no loss was required to be reported.  Refer to Note 9 for a discussion of the impact of a new accounting pronouncement on the minority interest of KBI Norcal.

 

KBI Norcal’s operating results have been included in the consolidated financial statements since July 1, 2002.  The impact of the 49% ownership interest of RJ Norcal, LLC is included in minority interest.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company made four other acquisitions for aggregate consideration of approximately $2.3 million.

The Company evaluates the propriety of not amortizing customer relationships to determine whether events and circumstances warrant amortization on a prospective basis.  In April 2003, the Company determined that $2.0 million of an unamortized customer relationship should be amortized over the succeeding twenty-one months.

 

Aggregate amortization expense for intangible assets was $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.  Estimated amortization expense for intangible assets is $1.0 million for the remainder of 2003, $1.7 million in 2004, $0.4 million in 2005, $0.3 million in 2006, $0.3 million in 2007, $0.3 million in 2008 and $1.0 million thereafter.

7.  CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

 

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” in the first quarter of 2002.  The provisions of SFAS No. 142 eliminate the amortization of goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets on a prospective basis beginning with acquisitions completed after June 30, 2001, or January 1, 2002 for those completed prior to June 30, 2001.  This standard required the Company to complete a transitional impairment analysis of its recorded goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets and to record any impairment charge as a change in accounting principle.  The Company completed the transitional impairment analysis in the first quarter of 2002, which resulted in the following impaired amounts of goodwill as of January 1, 2002 (in thousands):

In the case of each Reporting Unit (as defined by SFAS 142), fair value was estimated using the present value of expected future cash flows.  Management’s estimate of future cash flows used in the present value analysis resulted in estimated fair market value being less than the recorded value of tangible and intangible assets for the Reporting Units listed above. A divestiture of any individual business unit that comprises a Reporting Unit could result in a loss.  After considering the estimated fair market value of tangible assets, including land, an impairment of recorded goodwill occurred.  Possible reasons for the impairment could include increased competition, a reduction in residential construction within the geographic markets that these Reporting Units serve, or management issues.  The Company is required to test acquired goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least on an annual basis or when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.  This annual test takes place during the fourth quarter each year.

 

8.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

At June 30, 2003, BMHC had five stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 12 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations.  The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except per share data):

9.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.”  This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial arrangements with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.  It requires that an issuer classify a financial arrangement that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances).  The provisions of this statement are effective for financial arrangements entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise are effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.  The KBI Norcal shareholder agreement (Note 5) includes a provision requiring the Company to redeem the shares held by the minority shareholders in the event of their death.  SFAS No. 150 would consider the shares held by the minority interest to be recorded as a liability at fair value because of this provision.  The estimated fair value of the liability exceeds the minority interest recorded amount at June 30, 2003. Upon adoption, the difference between the estimated fair value of the liability and the stated amount of minority interest would be expensed as a non-cash charge and is estimated to be approximately $1.8 million, net of tax. Effective July 1, 2003, the KBI Norcal shareholder agreement was amended whereby the provision obligating the Company to redeem the shares held by the minority interest was eliminated. For accounting purposes, the amendment of the shareholder agreement would be considered a sale of 49% of the shares of a consolidated subsidiary and will result in an alteration of equity interest non-cash gain which is estimated to be equal to the non-cash expense amount from adoption of SFAS No. 150. The FASB is studying the implementation issues related to SFAS No. 150 and will provide interpretative guidance related to SFAS No. 150 which may affect the accounting for, and financial statement presentation of, these transactions. The Company is monitoring these FASB deliberations in order to determine the ultimate amount of the expense recorded upon adoption and the gain from the accounting basis sale of the 49% interest in KBI Norcal and the related financial presentation in the statement of income.

In March 2003, the consensus of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 02-16, “Accounting by a Customer (including a Reseller) for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor,” was published.  EITF Issue No. 02-16 addresses how a reseller of a vendor’s products should account for cash consideration received from a vendor.  The provisions of EITF Issue No. 02-16 were effective for new arrangements transacted after December 31, 2002.  The Company’s adoption of this guidance has not had a significant impact on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position.

 

In March 2003, the consensus of EITF Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” was published.  EITF Issue No. 00-21 addresses certain aspects of the accounting by a vendor for arrangements under which it will perform multiple revenue-generating activities.  Specifically, EITF Issue No. 00-21 addresses how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting.  The provisions of EITF Issue No. 00-21 will be effective in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003.  The Company is in the process of determining the impact of EITF Issue No. 00-21 on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position when effective.

 

In January 2003, FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities – an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.”  The interpretation clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties.  The provisions of this interpretation are effective for all enterprises with variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 or July 1, 2003 for enterprises with variable interest vested before February 1, 2003.  The adoption of this interpretation has not had a significant impact on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.”  This statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  It also amends the disclosure provisions of that statement to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy

 

14



 

decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation.  This statement also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure about those effects in interim financial information.  The provisions of this statement were effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002.  The Company has continued to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation in 2003 in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25.  The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 as presented in Note 8, “Stock-Based Compensation,” of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made.  The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset.  All provisions of this statement were effective as of the beginning of 2003.  The adoption of this statement has not had a significant impact on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position.

 

10.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

As of the period ending June 30, 2003, WBC earnings were accounted for under the equity method of accounting.  During the third quarter of 2003, WBC’s operating agreement was amended to eliminate the approval and other such rights of the minority interest which previously precluded consolidation.  As a consequence, WBC will be consolidated rather than accounted for under the equity method effective during the third quarter of 2003.  The impact of the 40% ownership interest of Willard Brothers Construction, Inc, will be included in minority interest.

 

As of August 13, 2003, the Company has entered into agreements providing for a new senior secured credit facility.  The new credit facility is subject to customary closing conditions.  The new credit facility is similar to the existing line of credit, providing for a term loan of $125 million maturing in seven years, and a revolving line of credit of $175 million maturing in five

 

15



 

 

years, based upon a borrowing base similar to the existing line of credit.  In connection with the anticipated closing of the new credit facility during the third quarter of 2003, the Company estimates it will write off existing and new deferred loan costs associated with the term loan of approximately $0.6 million, net of tax, or $0.04 per diluted share.

SECOND QUARTER OF 2003 COMPARED TO THE SECOND QUARTER OF 2002

 

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $322.3 million, an increase of 7.2% from the second quarter of 2002 when sales were $300.5 million.  Construction services and manufactured building components accounted for $180.4 million, or 56.0% of net sales for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of 18.2% from $152.6 million, or 50.8% of net sales for the second quarter of 2002. The growth in net sales resulted primarily from the consolidation of KBI Norcal, which was acquired in July 2002 and was not included in BMHC’s results for the second quarter of 2002. 

 

Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 27.5% in the second quarter of 2003 from 28.4% in the second quarter of 2002. The decrease is attributable primarily to lower gross profit margins in the market area served by KBI Norcal compared to BMHC’s established businesses.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $78.8 million, or 24.5% of net sales in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $71.2 million, or 23.7% of net sales in the second quarter of 2002.  The Company attributes most of this dollar increase to the consolidation of KBI Norcal.  Additionally, higher general insurance expense as well as added expenses associated with improved sales volume at the KBI business unit contributed to the variance. In an effort to reduce the impact of rising general insurance costs and better manage our underwriting risks, the Company has recently formed a wholly-owned captive insurance company, BMC Insurance, Inc.  Other income was $0.6 million

 

18



 

for the period compared to zero other income for the second quarter of 2002 and included a gain of $0.2 million from the sale of various non-strategic assets related to the Company’s consolidation activities.

 

Equity in earnings of an unconsolidated company in the second quarter of 2003 included income of $1.1 million from the Company’s 60% equity interest in WBC, whose earnings are included in the Company’s results effective January 1.  There were no comparable equity earnings in the second quarter of 2002.

 

Interest expense of $2.4 million remained constant relative to the same period last year. The weighted average interest rate dropped from 4.7% for the second quarter of 2002 to 3.9% for the current period.  The impact of the reduced interest rate was partially offset by an increase in the weighted average debt outstanding to $187.4 million during the second quarter of 2003 from $171.9 million during the same period of 2002.  The increase in the average debt outstanding is primarily due to cash used in the acquisition of WBC and working capital needs at KBI Norcal.

 

Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $5.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $7.3 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2002. Results in the second quarter of 2003 reflect the impact of weak housing and economic trends specific to the Company’s operations in Colorado and Texas, which led to lower than expected sales and earnings.  Additionally, the consolidation of three facilities into one new location in Houston, coupled with the installation of new information and operational systems, resulted in a temporary slowdown of production and higher expenses at this business unit during the quarter.  Net income also reflects a small operating loss for the second quarter at KBI Norcal due to rapid revenue growth and integration of truss manufacturing and lumber distribution which resulted in increased expenses.  Despite the loss at KBI Norcal, improved operational efficiencies are beginning to be realized at this business unit.

 

FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2003 COMPARED TO THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2002

 

 

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $598.7 million, an increase of 9.3% from the first six months of 2002 when sales were $547.7 million.  Construction services and manufactured building components accounted for $342.7 million, or 57.2% of net sales for the first six months of 2003, an increase from $286.1 million, or 52.2% of net sales for the first six months of 2002. The increase in net sales resulted primarily from the consolidation of KBI Norcal which was not included in BMHC’s results for the first six months of 2002.

 

19



 

Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 27.2% in the first half of 2003 from 28.6% in the first six months of 2002, primarily as a result of reduced margins at KBI Norcal, which had lower margins than the Company’s established businesses.

 

SG&A expense was $152.0 million, or 25.3% of net sales in the first six months of 2003 as compared to $139.3 million, or 25.4% of net sales in the first six months of 2002.  The Company attributes most of this dollar increase to the consolidation of KBI Norcal as well as higher general lines of insurance cost and added expenses associated with improved sales volume at the KBI business unit. Other income for the first half of 2003 was $1.4 million compared to $0.4 million for the first six months of 2002 and included gains of $0.8 million from the sale of various non-strategic assets related to the Company’s consolidation activities.

 

Equity in earnings of an unconsolidated company for the first six months of 2003 included income of $1.8 million from the Company’s 60% equity interest in WBC Construction, whose earnings are included in the Company’s results effective January 1.  There were no comparable equity earnings for the first six months of 2002.

 

Interest expense decreased to $4.4 million from $5.0 million during the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively, primarily due to a reduction in the weighted average interest rate to 3.9% from 4.9% between the two periods.  The impact of the reduced interest rate was partially offset by an increase in the weighted average debt outstanding to $185.8 million during the first six months of 2003 from $170.6 million during the same period of 2002.  The increase in the average debt outstanding is primarily due to cash used in the acquisition of WBC and working capital needs at KBI Norcal.

 

Net income for the first six months of 2003 was $6.2 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, compared to $0.60 per diluted share in 2002, excluding a first quarter charge for change in accounting principle of $11.6 million, net of tax, or $0.88 per diluted share as a change in accounting principle, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”

 

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The Company’s primary need for capital resources is to fund future growth, capital expenditures, and acquisitions, as well as to finance working capital

 

20



 

needs, which have been increasing as the Company has grown in recent years.  Capital resources have primarily consisted of cash flows from operations and the incurrence of debt.

 

Operations

In the first six months of 2003 and 2002, net cash provided by operations was $7.8 million and $7.2 million, respectively.  The increase in cash provided by operations was primarily due to increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses offset by increases in receivables and inventory.  Working capital increased to $179.6 million at June 30, 2003 from $170.0 million at June 30, 2002.

 

Capital investment and acquisitions

Net cash used for investing activities was $19.8 million and $9.2 million in the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively.  The acquisition in January 2003 of WBC, accounted for $22.9 million (net of post closing adjustments) in invested capital.  Capital expenditures were $7.5 million in the first six months of 2003.  Capital expenditures were incurred to acquire additional property and expand and remodel existing facilities.  Proceeds from the sale of a non-strategic business unit, Great Falls, Montana were $6.6 million.  Proceeds from dispositions of other property and equipment were $5.0 million and include $4.5 million in the sale of surplus real estate at Emmett, Idaho, Pocatello, Idaho, and Denver, Colorado during the first six months of 2003.

 

Financing

Net cash provided by financing activities was $19.4 million and $3.8 million in the first six months of 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to additional borrowings under the revolving credit agreements during the first quarter of 2003, largely necessitated by the acquisition of WBC and partially offset by payments on the term debt.

 

At June 30, 2003 the Company’s existing senior secured credit facility provided for borrowings of up to $283.5 million, including $93.5 million provided for by the term loan, all of which was outstanding at June 30, 2003, and $190.0 million provided for by the revolving credit facility, $76.5 million of which was outstanding at June 30, 2003.  Revolver borrowings are

limited by a borrowing base equal to 60% of inventory plus 80% of trade accounts receivable.  The borrowing base is calculated monthly and was $175.9 million at June 30, 2003, resulting in additional revolver availability of $84.5 million, net of $14.9 million in outstanding letters of credit.  Borrowings under the facility bear interest at prime plus 0.50% to 1.50%, or Offshore Rate plus 2.0% to 3.0%.  The agreement expires on December 1, 2004.

 

As of June 30, 2003, the Company did not meet one of the financial convenants governing its senior secured credit facility which includes a term loan and revolving credit agreement.  The bank has subsequently issued an amendment which modifies the agreement in effect as of June 30, 2003, thereby granting a waiver to BMHC with respect to this particular financial convenant.  Specifically, the financial convenant described as the “fixed coverage ratio” required a calculated ratio of no less than 1.20 to 1.0 and due to the Company’s lower than expected earnings for the quarter, the resulting ratio was 1.14 to 1.0.  As of August 13, 2003, the Company has entered into agreements providing for a new senior secured credit facility.  The new credit facility is subject to customary closing conditions.  The new credit facility is similar to the existing line of credit, providing for a term loan of $125 million, and a revolving line of credit of $175 million, based upon a borrowing base similar to the existing line of credit.  The new term loan has a 7 year maturity and the revolving loan has a 5 year maturity.  The term loan is payable in quarterly installments over the initial six years in amounts equal to 1% of the initial principal amount per year and equal quarterly installments of the remaining principal balance during year seven.  Borrowings under the new revolving facility will bear interest at either a base rate or LIBOR plus an additional percentage depending on performance.  The initial revolver rate will be LIBOR plus 2.50%.  The interest rate on the term loan is the offshore rate plus 3.25%.  The credit facility includes certain financial covenants.  The Company presently is in compliance with the covenants in the new credit facility.  The credit facility permits an increase in the facility of up to $50 million, subject to certain conditions.  In connection with the anticipated closing of the new senior credit facility during the third quarter of 2003, the Company estimates it will write off existing and new deferred loan costs associated with the term loan of approximately $0.6 million, net of tax, or $0.04 per diluted share.

 

In the third quarter of 1998, a shelf registration was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register 2,000,000 shares of common stock.  The Company may issue these shares from time to time in connection

with future business combinations, mergers and/or acquisitions.  As part of the WBC acquisition in January 2003, the Company issued 70,053 shares of BMHC common stock from this registration (see Note 5).  The Company also issued 34,364 shares of stock from this registration with the acquisition of KBI Norcal on July 1, 2002 (see Note 5).

 

Based on the Company’s ability to generate cash flows from operations, its borrowing capacity under the revolver and its access to debt and equity markets, the Company believes it will have sufficient capital to meet its anticipated needs.

 

Disclosures of Certain Market Risks

The Company experiences changes in interest expense when market interest rates change or changes are made to its debt structure.  The Company has managed its exposure to market interest rate changes through periodic refinancing of its variable rate debt with fixed rate term debt obligations.  Based on debt outstanding at June 30, 2003, a 25 basis point increase in interest rates would result in approximately $425,000 of additional annual interest costs.

 

Prices of commodity wood products, which are subject to significant volatility, directly affect net sales and cost of sales and could affect net income.  The Company does not utilize any derivative financial instruments to hedge commodity price movements, however it does intend to begin using interest rate swap contracts to fix long-term interest rates on up to $100 million of its floating rate debt.

 

The Company has a cash equity incentive plan that is partially based on changes in the Company’s stock price.  Under the plan, a $1.00 increase or decrease in the Company’s stock price after June 30, 2003 would result in an increase or decrease in compensation expense of approximately $114,235.

 

Quarterly Results and Seasonality

The Company’s first and fourth quarters historically have been, and are expected to continue to be, adversely affected by weather patterns in some of the Company’s markets, causing decreases in levels of residential construction activity.

New Accounting Standards

In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.”  This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial arrangements with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.  It requires that an issuer classify a financial arrangement that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances).  The provisions of this statement are effective for financial arrangements entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise are effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.  The KBI Norcal shareholder agreement (Note 5) includes a provision requiring the Company to redeem the shares held by the minority shareholders in the event of their death.  SFAS No. 150 would consider the shares held by the minority interest to be recorded as a liability at fair value because of this provision.  The estimated fair value of the liability exceeds the minority interest recorded amount at June 30, 2003. Upon adoption, the difference between the estimated fair value of the liability and the stated amount of minority interest would be expensed as a non-cash charge and is estimated to be approximately $1.8 million, net of tax. Effective July 1, 2003, the KBI Norcal shareholder agreement was amended whereby the provision obligating the Company to redeem the shares held by the minority interest was eliminated. For accounting purposes, the amendment of the shareholder agreement would be considered a sale of 49% of the shares of a consolidated subsidiary and will result in an alteration of equity interest non-cash gain which is estimated to be equal to the non-cash expense amount from adoption of SFAS No. 150. The FASB is studying the implementation issues related to SFAS No. 150 and will provide interpretative guidance related to SFAS No. 150 which may affect the accounting for, and financial statement presentation of, these transactions. The Company is monitoring these FASB deliberations in order to determine the ultimate amount of the expense recorded upon adoption and the gain from the accounting basis sale of the 49% interest in KBI Norcal and the related financial presentation in the statement of income.

 

In March 2003, the consensus of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 02-16, “Accounting by a Customer (including a Reseller) for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor,” was published.  EITF Issue No. 02-16 addresses how a reseller of a vendor’s products should account for cash consideration received from a vendor.  The provisions of EITF Issue No. 02-16 were effective for new arrangements transacted after December 31, 2002.  The Company’s adoption of this guidance has not had a significant impact on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position.

 

In March 2003, the consensus of EITF Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” was published.  EITF Issue No. 00-21 addresses certain aspects of the accounting by a vendor for arrangements under which it will perform multiple revenue-generating activities.  Specifically, EITF Issue No. 00-21 addresses how to determine whether an arrangement involving multiple deliverables contains more than one unit of accounting.  The provisions of EITF Issue No. 00-21 will be effective in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003.  The Company is in the process of determining

the impact of EITF Issue No. 00-21 on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position when effective.

 

In January 2003, FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities – an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.”  The interpretation clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties.  The provisions of this interpretation are effective for all enterprises with variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 or July 1, 2003 for enterprises with variable interest vested before February 1, 2003.  The adoption of this interpretation has not had a significant impact on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.”  This statement amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  It also amends the disclosure provisions of that statement to require prominent disclosure about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation.  This statement also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosure about those effects in interim financial information.  The provisions of this statement were effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002.  The Company has continued to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation in 2003 in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25.  The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 as presented in Note 8, “Stock-Based Compensation,” of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  This statement requires that the

 

25



 

fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made.  The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset.  All provisions of this statement were effective as of the beginning of 2003.  The adoption of this statement has not had a significant impact on the Company’s financial results of operations and financial position.

Item 4     Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President - Finance, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14.

 

Disclosure controls are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information we are required to disclose in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported timely.  Disclosure controls also are designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is communicated to our management, as appropriate, to allow timely judgments concerning required disclosure.  Internal controls are procedures designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are properly authorized; (ii) assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and (iii) transactions are properly recorded and reported, in order to permit the preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

A control system, even if well conceived and implemented can only provide reasonable assurance rather than absolute assurance that the goals of the control system are met.  There are inherent limitations in all control systems due to resource constraints and other factors, such as assumptions regarding the likelihood of future events and new business conditions, the fact that judgments may, with the benefit of hindsight, prove to be incorrect, and the fact that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake, as well as a result of fraudulent activity.  As a result of these limitations, it is not possible to ensure that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur and be detected.

 

The evaluation of our disclosure controls and internal controls included a review of the design, objectives and implementation throughout the Company.  Management seeks to identify errors, control problems or instances of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action is implemented as appropriate.  Internal controls are also reviewed on an ongoing basis by our

 

27



 

internal audit department, in connection with their audit and review activities.

 

In accordance with SEC requirements, the Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President - Finance advised the Company that, since the date of their evaluation, there have been no significant changes in internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls.

 

Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President - Finance have concluded that, subject to the above limitations, the Company’s disclosure controls are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its subsidiaries is communicated to management, and that the Company’s internal controls are effective to provide reasonable assurance that our financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
