TREX COMPANY, INC.

 

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 and 2005

(unaudited)

 

1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

 

Trex Company, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on September 4, 1998. The Company manufactures and distributes wood/plastic composite products primarily for residential and commercial decking and railing applications. Trex Wood-Polymer® lumber (“Trex”) is manufactured in a proprietary process that combines waste wood fibers and reclaimed polyethylene (“PE material”). The Company operates in one business segment.

 

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The consolidated results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2003 and 2004 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 included in the annual report of Trex Company, Inc. on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentation.

 

3. INVENTORY

 

Inventories (at LIFO value) consist of the following (in thousands):

 

     December 31, 2004

   March 31, 2005

Finished goods

   $ 32,564    $ 24,143

Raw materials

     11,793      14,663
    

  

     $ 44,357    $ 38,806
    

  

 

An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Since inventory levels and costs are subject to factors beyond management’s control, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

 

4. ACCRUED EXPENSES

 

Accrued expenses consist of the following (in thousands):

 

     December 31, 2004

   March 31, 2005

   $ 3,442    $ 2,860

Accrued compensation and benefits

     5,404      4,597

5. DEBT

 

The Company’s outstanding debt consists of senior notes, a variable rate promissory note, real estate loans and revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility provides for borrowing up to $20.0 million. Amounts drawn under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base consisting of accounts receivable and finished goods inventories. As of March 31, 2005, $2.7 million was outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

 

The revolving credit facility, real estate loans, senior notes and bond loan documents contain negative and financial covenants. As of March 31, 2005, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

 

The Company uses interest-rate swap contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the interest rates under its real estate loans and variable rate promissory note. At March 31, 2005, the Company had capped its interest rate exposure at an annual effective rate of approximately 8.1% on all of its $13.3 million principal amount of floating-rate real estate loans and capped its interest rate exposure at an annual effective rate of approximately 3.1% for seven years on $10.0 million principal amount of its $25.0 million variable rate promissory note and at an annual effective rate of approximately 3.0% for five years on an additional $10.0 million principal amount of such note.
