Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Six Months Ended October 31, 2011 and 2010

(1)           Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by AMREP Corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in four business segments: the Subscription Fulfillment Services business operated by Palm Coast Data LLC (“Palm Coast”), the Newsstand Distribution Services business and the Product Services and Other businesses operated by Kable Media Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Kable”) (the businesses operated by Palm Coast and Kable are collectively referred to as “Media Services” or “Media services”), and the real estate business operated by AMREP Southwest Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “AMREP Southwest”).
 
In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary to reflect a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.  The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what may occur in future periods.  Unless otherwise qualified, all references to 2012 and 2011 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2012 and 2011 and all references to the second quarter and first six months of 2012 and 2011 mean the fiscal three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 and 2010.
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2011, which was filed with the SEC on July 21, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”).  Certain 2011 balances in these financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Media Services has a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with a bank (the “Media Services Credit Facility”) which matures May 12, 2013 that provides for a revolving credit loan and letter of credit facility of up to $20,000,000, with availability within that limit based upon the lesser of (i) a percentage of the borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable or (ii) the recent level of collections of accounts receivable.  Subject to certain terms, funds may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed at any time.  Borrowings under the Media Services Credit Facility are being used for Media Services working capital needs and general business purposes and, subject to the Media Services consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined) being at a stated level, may also be used to provide payments on certain indebtedness due a Company subsidiary that is not a party to the Media Services Credit Facility.  
 
The borrowers' obligations under the Media Services Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of their assets other than real property.  The revolving loans under the Media Services Credit Facility may be fluctuating rate borrowings or Eurodollar fixed rate based borrowings or a combination of the two as the borrowers may select.  Fluctuating rate borrowings bear interest at a rate which is, at the borrowers’ option, either (i) the reserve adjusted daily published rate for one month LIBOR loans plus a margin of 3.0%, or (ii) the highest of two daily published market rates and the bank lender’s base commercial lending rate in effect from time to time, but in any case not less than 3.0% plus a margin of 2.0% (that is, not less than 5.0%).  Eurodollar fixed rate based borrowings may be for one, two or six months and bear interest at the reserve adjusted Eurodollar interest rates for borrowings of such durations, plus a margin of 3.0%, which may be reduced to 2.75% depending on the borrowers’ financial condition.  At October 31, 2011, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Media Services Credit Facility.  The highest amount borrowed during the quarter ended October 31, 2011 was $4,334,000.  The Media Services Credit Facility requires the borrowers to meet certain covenants.
 
AMREP Southwest has a Loan Agreement and a related Promissory Note dated December 17, 2009 with a bank, both of which were amended on April 29, 2011 (said Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, as so amended, together, the “ASW Credit Facility”).   The ASW Credit Facility is a non-revolving loan with an outstanding principal balance at October 31, 2011 of $18,089,000, with principal payments due quarterly on December 15, 2011, March 15, 2012 and June 15, 2012 in installments of the greater of $625,000 or one-half of the net cash received (as defined) by AMREP Southwest during the quarterly periods ended on such dates from the sale of real estate, with the remaining principal due September 1, 2012.  No further amounts may be borrowed by AMREP Southwest under the ASW Credit Facility.  The outstanding principal of the ASW Credit Facility bears fluctuating interest at the annual rate of reserve adjusted 30-day LIBOR (0.2453% at October 31, 2011) plus 3.5%, but not less than 5.0%, and AMREP Southwest is required to maintain a cash reserve with the lender of not less than $500,000 to fund the interest payments.  At October 31, 2011, the interest rate was 5.0% and the cash reserve was $531,000.  The ASW Credit Facility is secured by a mortgage on certain real property of AMREP Southwest with a book value of approximately $54,892,000 and requires that the appraised value of the collateral be at least 2.5 times the outstanding principal of the loan.  The ASW Credit Facility contains a number of covenants and restrictions, including a covenant requiring AMREP Southwest to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined) and a covenant restricting AMREP Southwest from making distributions and other payments to the Company beyond a stated management fee.
 
At October 31, 2011, the borrowers under the Media Services Credit Facility and the ASW Credit Facility were in compliance with the facilities’ covenants.
 
Other notes payable consist of a $4,476,000 mortgage note payable on a warehouse with a maturity date of February 2018 and with an interest rate of 6.35% and $90,000 of equipment financing loans

with maturity dates through April 2014 with an average interest rate of 7.5%.  The amount of Other notes payable due within one year totals $146,000.
 
(8)           Other Long-Term Liabilities

In June 2009, the Company received $3,000,000 pursuant to an agreement with the State of Florida (the “Award Agreement”) as part of the incentives made available to the Company in connection with its project completed in 2011 to consolidate its Subscription Fulfillment Services operations at its Palm Coast, Florida location.  The Award Agreement requires the Company to achieve certain objectives in terms of job retention, job creation and capital investment through December 31, 2012; if the objectives are not met, the Company may need to return a portion, or all, of the $3,000,000.  Accordingly, the $3,000,000 has been recorded as a long term liability until the Company is irrevocably entitled to retain the award, at which time the award will be amortized into income over the life of the assets acquired with the grant monies received.
 
(9)           Taxes
 
The Company’s effective tax rate was 42.0% and 44.0% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to 40.0% and 50.0% for the same periods in the prior year.  The difference between the statutory rate and the effective rates was primarily attributable to the accrual of interest related to unrecognized tax positions, which the Company has elected to include in its income tax expense or benefit.  The effect of this interest accrual for both the three and six month periods was to increase the tax provision associated with the pre-tax income in both 2012 and 2011.  The Company expects to utilize federal net operating loss carryforwards to offset current year taxable income.
 
Unrecognized tax benefits were $333,000 at October 31, 2011 and April 30, 2011.  As a result of either the expiration of statutes of limitations or the recognition or measurement considerations under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within the next twelve months.
 
(10)         Fair Value Measurements
 
The ASC Financial Instruments Topic requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Topic excludes all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.  The following methods and assumptions are used in estimating fair value disclosure for financial instruments.
 
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, Media services trade receivables and all trade payables approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. Debt that bears variable interest rates indexed to prime or LIBOR also approximates fair value as it reprices when market interest rates change.
 
The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term, fixed-rate mortgage receivables was $551,000 and $562,000 at October 31, 2011 and April 30, 2011 and is the approximate carrying amounts at those dates.  At October 31, 2011 and April 30, 2011, the estimated fair values of the Company’s long-term, fixed-rate notes payable were $4,979,000 and $5,067,000 compared with carrying amounts of $4,566,000 and $4,646,000.

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

The Company, through its subsidiaries, is primarily engaged in four business segments: the Subscription Fulfillment Services business operated by Palm Coast Data LLC (“Palm Coast”), the Newsstand Distribution Services business and the Product Services and Other businesses operated by Kable Media Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Kable”) (the businesses operated by Palm Coast and Kable are collectively referred to as “Media Services” or “Media services”), and the real estate business operated by AMREP Southwest Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “AMREP Southwest”).  The Company’s foreign sales and activities are not significant.
 
The following provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.  The discussion should be read in conjunction with the April 30, 2011 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  Unless otherwise qualified, all references to 2012 and 2011 are to the fiscal years ending April 30, 2012 and 2011 and all references to the second quarter and first six months of 2012 and 2011 mean the fiscal three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 and 2010.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on the accounting policies used and disclosed in the 2011 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and included as part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”). The preparation of those consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual amounts or results could differ from those estimates.
 
The critical accounting policies, assumptions and estimates are described in Part II, “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Critical Accounting Assumptions and Estimates” in the 2011 Form 10-K. There have been no changes in these accounting policies.
 
The significant accounting policies of the Company are described in Note 1 to the 2011 consolidated financial statements contained in the 2011 Form 10-K.  Information concerning the Company’s implementation and the impact of recent accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board is included in the notes to the 2011 consolidated financial statements.  The Company did not adopt any accounting policy in the second quarter of 2012 that had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the second quarter of 2012, the Company had net income of $1,083,000, or $0.18 per share, compared to net income of $731,000, or $0.12 per share, for the second quarter of 2011.  For the first six months of 2012, the Company had net income of $804,000, or $0.13 per share, compared to net income of $233,000, or $0.04 per share, for the same period of 2011.  Revenues were $23,351,000 and $44,844,000 in the second quarter and first six months of 2012 compared to $25,816,000 and $50,903,000 for the same periods of the prior year.
 
Revenues from Media Services decreased from $25,293,000 and $49,529,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2011 to $22,020,000 and $43,396,000 for the same periods in 2012.  Magazine publishers are the principal customers of these operations, and they have continued to be impacted by the effects of the recent recession and also from increased competition from new media sources.  This has resulted in reduced subscription and newsstand sales, which has caused publishers to close some magazine titles and seek more favorable terms from Palm Coast and Kable and their competitors.  As a consequence of these and other factors, revenues from the Subscription Fulfillment Services operations decreased from $19,572,000 and $38,423,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2011 to $16,510,000 and $33,186,000 for the same periods of 2012, primarily reflecting (i) customer losses and (ii) reduced and lost business that resulted from lower publisher customer volumes and the attrition of magazine titles. Revenues from the Newsstand Distribution Services operations decreased from $2,886,000 and $6,000,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2011 to $2,552,000 and $4,899,000 for the same periods of 2012, principally as a result of lower distribution volumes reflecting a decline in retail magazine sales through the newsstand distribution system.  Revenues from the Product Services and Other business segment increased from $2,835,000 and $5,105,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2011 to $2,958,000 and $5,312,000 for the same periods of 2012, primarily due to an increase in revenues from the temporary staffing business partially offset by lower revenues in the product services business.  Substantially offsetting the revenue decline, Media Services operating expenses were $17,263,000 and $35,079,000 (78.4% and 80.8% of related revenues) for the second quarter and first six months of 2012 compared to $19,552,000 and $40,218,000 (77.3% and 81.2% of related revenues) for the same periods in 2011.  The decreases in Media Services operating expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2012 from the same periods in 2011 were primarily attributable to (i) decreases of $1,444,000 and $3,739,000 for the three and six month periods related to payroll and benefits costs as a result of both the reduced and lost business noted earlier and efficiencies achieved in the Company’s consolidation of its Subscription Fulfillment Services business from three locations in Colorado, Florida and Illinois into one existing location at Palm Coast, Florida that was completed during the second quarter of 2011, as well as (ii) decreases of $267,000 and $645,000 for the three and six month periods related to facilities and equipment costs, including depreciation, resulting from the consolidation project.
 
Revenues from land sales at AMREP Southwest were $1,327,000 and $1,435,000 for the second quarter and first six months of 2012 compared to $489,000 and $1,313,000 for the same periods of 2011.  Results for all periods were substantially lower than the Company has experienced prior to fiscal 2009 in its principal market of Rio Rancho, New Mexico, due to a severe decline in the real estate market in the greater Albuquerque-metro and Rio Rancho areas that began late in fiscal 2008.  In Rio Rancho, the Company offers for sale both developed and undeveloped lots to national, regional and local home builders, commercial and industrial property developers and others.  For the second quarter and first six months of 2012 and 2011, the Company’s land sales in Rio Rancho were as follows:

The average selling price of land sold by the Company in Rio Rancho in recent years has fluctuated, as the Company offers for sale developed and undeveloped land from a number of different projects, and selling prices may vary from project to project and within projects depending on location, the stage of development and other factors.  The average gross profit percentage on land sales was 83% and 79% for the second quarter and first six months of 2012 compared to 16% and 38% for the same periods in 2011, with the variance being attributable to the mix of land sold.  Land sold in 2012 consisted of developed commercial lots and undeveloped residential lots, both of which have higher gross profit margins than developed residential lots which were a large part of the land sales in 2011.  Revenues, gross profits and related gross profit percentages from land sales can vary significantly from period to period as a result of many factors, including the nature and timing of specific transactions, and prior results are not necessarily a good indication of what may occur in future periods.
 
Real estate commissions and selling expenses were $80,000 and $139,000 for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 compared to $68,000 and $148,000 for the same periods in the prior year. Real estate commissions and selling expenses can vary based on types of land sold.
 
Other operating expenses were $435,000 and $784,000 for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 compared to $612,000 and $1,552,000 for the same periods last year.  The decrease in other operating expenses for both periods was primarily due to reduced real estate taxes on real estate inventory and investment assets in Rio Rancho and restructuring costs incurred in the prior year with no similar costs in 2012 since the consolidation of the Company’s Subscription Fulfillment Services business was completed in the second quarter of 2011.
 
General and administrative costs of Media Services operations were $2,113,000 and $4,338,000 (9.6% and 10.0% of related revenues) for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 compared to $2,289,000 and $4,625,000 (9.0% and 9.3% of related revenues) for the same periods in the prior year.  The reduced costs for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2011 were primarily due to lower consulting costs.
 
The Company’s effective tax rate was 42.0% and 44.0% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2011 compared to 40.0% and 50.0% for the same periods in the prior year.  The difference
 
 
13
 
 
 
between the statutory rate and the effective rates was primarily attributable to the accrual of interest related to unrecognized tax positions, which the Company has elected to include in its income tax expense or benefit.  The effect of this interest accrual for both the three and six month periods was to increase the tax provision associated with the pre-tax income in both 2012 and 2011.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s primary sources of funding for working capital requirements are cash flow from operations and banking facilities.  The Company's liquidity is affected by many factors, including some that are based on normal operations and some that are related to the industries in which the Company operates and the economy generally.  The Company’s Media Services businesses finance their operations in part through a revolving credit facility (defined below as the Media Services Credit Facility) that matures May 12, 2013.  The Company’s Media Services businesses also rely on cash flow from operations to fund their working capital requirements, including cash flow made available through arrangements with customers and wholesalers that are subject to expiration and renegotiation from time to time.  AMREP Southwest finances its business from cash flow from operations and from loans made to it by its parent.  It also has a loan agreement (defined below as the ASW Credit Facility) that matures September 1, 2012 under which it may not borrow any additional funds.  AMREP Southwest expects to initiate discussions with the bank regarding renewal of this arrangement, but there can be no assurance that this facility can be renewed on acceptable terms.  If AMREP Southwest is unable to renew this facility, it would not have sufficient funds to satisfy its obligation to the bank, and the Company would be forced to seek either replacement financing or other sources of capital, such as by selling assets or issuing equity, which replacement financing or other sources of capital might not be available on acceptable terms.  It is likely that the expiration without renewal or the termination of any of the credit facilities or arrangements described above would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
 
As a result of the cessation of certain operations in connection with the consolidation of the Company’s Subscription Fulfillment Services business, more than 20% of the Company’s employees who were active participants in the Company’s defined benefit pension plan as of the date of the announcement of the consolidation project were separated from employment.  As required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), the Company notified the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”) of this occurrence.  Pursuant to ERISA regulations, the PBGC has the right to require the Company to accelerate the funding of certain accrued pension-related obligations (i) by making accelerated contributions to the Plan or (ii) by placing an amount in escrow or by furnishing a bond to the PBGC to insure payment, or instead (iii) the Company and the PBGC may enter into an alternative arrangement with respect to any such requirement.  The PBGC has advised the Company that its calculation of the unfunded liability, statutorily computed on a “termination basis” which amount differs from that computed for generally accepting accounting principles under ASC 715-30, was approximately $16,000,000 as of the date the certain operations were deemed to have ceased, and as a result, the amount required to be contributed to the Plan or placed in escrow (or supported by a bond) is approximately $12,000,000.  The Company and its advisors have reviewed the PBGC’s calculations, and the Company has entered into discussions with the PBGC to seek an alternative arrangement; however, there is no assurance that a satisfactory alternative arrangement can be arrived at between the Company and the PBGC.  Either the alternative arrangement, if achieved, or the failure to reach an agreement on an alternative arrangement, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.  Refer to Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included in the 2011 Form 10-K for additional pension plan information.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
 
Receivables from Media Services operations decreased from $28,125,000 at April 30, 2011 to $23,956,000 at October 31, 2011, primarily due to the timing of the collection of receivables.  Receivables from real estate operations and corporate increased from $607,000 at April 30, 2011 to $641,000 at October 31, 2011.
 
Real estate inventory was $75,551,000 at October 31, 2011 compared to $75,247,000 at April 30, 2011.  Inventory in the Company’s core real estate market of Rio Rancho increased from $70,968,000 at April 30, 2011 to $71,260,000 at October 31, 2011, reflecting the net effect of development spending and land sales.  The balance of real estate inventory consisted of properties in Colorado.
 
Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased from $70,876,000 at April 30, 2011 to $70,285,000 at October 31, 2011, primarily from the timing of billings and payments to publishers and vendors.
 
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
 
Capital expenditures totaled $697,000 for the first six months of 2012 and were primarily for facility and equipment upgrades for the Media Services businesses and $298,000 in the same period of 2011 for expenditures primarily related to the consolidation of the Subscription Fulfillment Services operations.
 
Cash Flows From Financing Activities
 
Media Services has a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with a bank (the “Media Services Credit Facility”) which matures May 12, 2013 that provides for a revolving credit loan and letter of credit facility of up to $20,000,000, with availability within that limit based upon the lesser of (i) a percentage of the borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable or (ii) the recent level of collections of accounts receivable.  Subject to certain terms, funds may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed at any time.  Borrowings under the Media Services Credit Facility are being used for Media Services working capital needs and general business purposes and, subject to the Media Services consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined) being at a stated level, may also be used to provide payments on certain indebtedness due a Company subsidiary that is not a party to the Media Services Credit Facility.  
 
The borrowers' obligations under the Media Services Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of their assets other than real property.  The revolving loans under the Media Services Credit Facility may be fluctuating rate borrowings or Eurodollar fixed rate based borrowings or a combination of the two as the borrowers may select.  Fluctuating rate borrowings bear interest at a rate which is, at the borrowers’ option, either (i) the reserve adjusted daily published rate for one month LIBOR loans plus a margin of 3.0%, or (ii) the highest of two daily published market rates and the bank lender’s base commercial lending rate in effect from time to time, but in any case not less than 3.0% plus a margin of 2.0% (that is, not less than 5.0%).  Eurodollar fixed rate based borrowings may be for one, two or six months and bear interest at the reserve adjusted Eurodollar interest rates for borrowings of such durations, plus a margin of 3.0%, which may be reduced to 2.75% depending on the borrowers’ financial condition.  At October 31, 2011, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Media Services Credit Facility.  The highest amount borrowed during the quarter ended October 31, 2011 was $4,334,000.  The Media Services Credit Facility requires the borrowers to meet certain covenants.

AMREP Southwest has a Loan Agreement and a related Promissory Note dated December 17, 2009 with a bank, both of which were amended on April 29, 2011 (said Loan Agreement and Promissory Note, as so amended, together, the “ASW Credit Facility”).   The ASW Credit Facility is a non-revolving loan with an outstanding principal balance at October 31, 2011 of $18,089,000, with principal payments due quarterly on December 15, 2011, March 15, 2012 and June 15, 2012 in installments of the greater of $625,000 or one-half of the net cash received (as defined) by AMREP Southwest during the quarterly periods ended on such dates from the sale of real estate, with the remaining principal due September 1, 2012.  No further amounts may be borrowed by AMREP Southwest under the ASW Credit Facility.  The outstanding principal of the ASW Credit Facility bears fluctuating interest at the annual rate of reserve adjusted 30-day LIBOR (0.2453% at October 31, 2011) plus 3.5%, but not less than 5.0%, and AMREP Southwest is required to maintain a cash reserve with the lender of not less than $500,000 to fund the interest payments.  At October 31, 2011, the interest rate was 5.0% and the cash reserve was $531,000.  The ASW Credit Facility is secured by a mortgage on certain real property of AMREP Southwest with a book value of approximately $54,892,000 and requires that the appraised value of the collateral be at least 2.5 times the outstanding principal of the loan.  The ASW Credit Facility contains a number of covenants and restrictions, including a covenant requiring AMREP Southwest to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined) and a covenant restricting AMREP Southwest from making distributions and other payments to the Company beyond a stated management fee.
 
Each of the Company’s financing facilities requires the borrowers to meet certain covenants.  The borrowers were in compliance with these covenants at October 31, 2011.

Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the 2011 Form 10-K, which could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results, should be carefully considered.  The risks described in the 2011 Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that currently are deemed to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or operating results.

Statement of Forward-Looking Information

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company.  The Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking”, including statements contained in this report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to the Company’s shareholders and news releases.  All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act.  In addition, other written or oral statements, which constitute forward-looking statements, may be made by or on behalf of the Company.  Words such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “projects”, “forecasts”, “may”, “should”, variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.  These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult to predict. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risks described above under the heading “Risk Factors”.  Many of the factors that will determine the Company’s future results are beyond the ability of management to control or predict.  Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements.  The forward-looking statements contained in this report include, but are not limited to, statements regarding (i) the possible accelerated funding of the Company’s pension plan resulting from the plan’s partial termination and (ii) the Company’s ability to finance its future working capital and capital expenditure needs.  The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  As a result of such evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.  The Company believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

On November 28, 2011, in the lawsuit entitled Haan v. Kable News Company, Inc., et al, which is described in subdivision A of Item 3 of Part I of the 2011 Form 10-K, the Court granted the motions to dismiss plaintiff’s claims against the Company’s subsidiary, Kable News Company, Inc., certain of its other subsidiaries, and the Company (together, the “Kable Defendants”) but gave plaintiff leave to replead the dismissed intentional tort claim against Kable News Company, Inc.  At this point, subject to the possible repleading, the only claims in the lawsuit that are pending against any of the Kable Defendants are claims for contribution brought by the defendant temporary staffing company and by the defendant architectural and engineering company, which additionally has advised that if plaintiff’s case against it continues it may assert an implied indemnity claim against one or more of the Kable Defendants.  At this point, it is unknown whether plaintiff will replead the intentional tort claim or whether it will appeal any of the dismissals when the case becomes ripe for appeal.
 
The lawsuit entitled Alpinist, et al v. Haan, et al, which is described in subdivision B of Item 3 of Part I of the Company’s 2011 Form 10-K has been settled and dismissed, with prejudice.  The share of the settlement payment allocated to the Company and its subsidiaries has been paid by the Company’s liability insurance carrier.
