NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

 

(in thousands, except for per share data, unless otherwise indicated)

 

1. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Stoneridge, Inc. (the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission). The information furnished in the condensed consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring accruals and adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Commission’s rules and regulations. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

2. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for approximately 72% and 68% of the Company’s inventories at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, and by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for all other inventories. Inventory cost includes material, labor and overhead. Inventories consist of the following:

 

    

June 30,

2004


   

December 31,

2003


 
      

Raw materials

   $ 30,860     $ 25,035  

Work in progress

     11,286       10,414  

Finished goods

     15,319       13,903  
    


 


       57,465       49,352  

Less: LIFO reserve

     (1,040 )     (710 )
    


 


Total

   $ 56,425     $ 48,642  
    


 


3. A financial instrument is cash or a contract that imposes an obligation to deliver, or conveys a right to receive cash or another financial instrument. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are considered to be representative of fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The estimated fair value of the Company’s senior notes (fixed rate debt) at June 30, 2004, per quoted market sources, was $233.3 million and the carrying value was $200.0 million.

 

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to market risks resulting from fluctuations in interest rates (swaps) and currency rates (forward contracts). The Company does not enter into financial instruments for trading purposes. Management believes that its use of these instruments to reduce risk is in the Company’s best interest. At June 30, 2004, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps.

 

The Company has entered into a foreign currency forward purchase contract with a notional value of 58.5 million of Swedish krona to reduce exposure related to the Company’s krona denominated receivables. The estimated fair value of this forward contract at June 30, 2004, per quoted market sources, was $0.1 million. The contract is marked to market, with gains and losses recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company’s foreign currency forward purchase contract substantially offsets losses and gains on the underlying foreign denominated receivables.

4. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. The Company performed an annual impairment test of goodwill as of October 1, 2003 and no impairment was recognized. There was no change in the carrying value of goodwill by reportable operating segment during the first six months of 2004.

 

5. In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued interpretation (FIN) 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities – an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.” FIN 46 requires unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse the risks and rewards of ownership among their owners and other parties involved. The provisions of FIN 46 were applicable immediately to all variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities – an Interpretation of ARB No. 51 (revised December 2003),” which includes significant amendments to previously issued FIN 46. Among other things, FIN 46R includes revised transition dates for public entities, which required the Company to adopt the provisions of FIN 46 as of March 31, 2004. The adoption of this interpretation did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

6. The Company has two share-based compensation plans. One plan is for employees and one plan is for non-employee directors. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” prospectively to all employee and director awards granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003, under the provisions of SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure – an amendment of SFAS 123.” Awards under the Company’s plans vest over periods ranging from one to five years, and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis. Because the Company adopted the fair value method on a prospective basis, the cost related to share-based compensation recognized during the three and six month period ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value method had been applied to all awards granted since the original effective date of SFAS 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period.
