PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

Cybex International, Inc. (the “Company” or “Cybex”), a New York corporation, is a manufacturer of exercise equipment and develops, manufactures and markets strength and cardiovascular fitness equipment products for the commercial and, to a lesser extent, consumer markets. The Company operates in one business segment.

Products

The Company develops, manufactures and markets high performance, professional quality exercise equipment products for the commercial market and, to a lesser extent, the premium segment of the consumer market. These products can generally be grouped into two major categories: cardiovascular products and strength systems.

The Company’s products are of professional quality and are believed to be among the best in the category in which they compete, featuring high performance and durability suitable for utilization in health clubs or by professional athletes. Accordingly, the majority of the Company’s products are premium priced.

The contribution to net sales of the Company’s product lines over the past three years is as follows (dollars in millions):

Cardiovascular Products. The Company’s cardiovascular equipment is designed to provide aerobic conditioning by elevating the heart rate, increasing lung capacity, endurance and circulation, and burning body fat. The Company’s cardiovascular products include cross trainers, treadmills, bikes and steppers. All of the Company’s cardiovascular products incorporate computerized electronics which control the unit and provide feedback to the user. All of the cardiovascular products, except the Home Arc, can be equipped with optional TV monitors that feature controls integrated into the control console, with an incremental list price of approximately $1,600.

Cross Trainers. Cybex Arc Trainer is a product designed to provide the user with more and varied training potential. It provides motions that vary from gliding to climbing. Its brake design provides resistance up to 900 Watts in the commercial version to meet the demands ranging from the casual user to the athlete. In late 2011, the Company introduced the 625A and 625AT Arc Trainers, and in February 2012 introduced 770A and 770AT Arc Trainers. The older 750 series of Arc Trainers will be phased out in early 2012. The 625 and 770 series Arc Trainers utilize consoles based on the 625T and 770T treadmills to encourage cross utilization. The 625AT and

 

2


770AT include an upper body motion to provide for total body training. The Company also produces the 425A Arc Trainer for the light commercial and high-end consumer markets and the 360A Arc Trainer for the consumer market. The Arc Trainers’ list prices range from $2,995 to $10,395.

Treadmills. The Company has four treadmill models, the 750T, 770T, 625T, and LCX-425T. Each treadmill model is motorized and incorporates computerized electronics controlling speed, incline, display functions and preset exercise programs. The electronics also provide displays to indicate speed, elevation, distance, time, pace and a variety of other data. All of the treadmills include a complete diagnostic suite that can be accessed through the display, which is useful in the maintenance of the product. The 625T, 770T, and 750T also include an innovative safety feature known as Safety Sentry, which causes the treadmill to stop once it detects inactivity with the user. All treadmills are equipped with contact heart rate monitoring and a deck suspension system, and include wireless heart rate monitoring capabilities. The 770T offers an embedded personal entertainment monitor. The LCX-425T is a high-end consumer and light commercial product, while the other models are for the commercial market. The Company’s treadmills have list prices ranging from $4,795 to $9,795.

Bikes. The Company has two bikes, the 750C Upright Cycle and 750R Recumbent Cycle. These bikes feature improved ergonomics including a walk-through design on the recumbent model, as well as improved ease of use and an exceptionally broad resistance range with multiple resistance modes. These products are designed to allow any users to receive the maximum benefit in minimum time. The Company plans on introducing 625 and 770 series cycles to complement the 625 and 770 series treadmills and Arc trainers. The list price of the upright bike is $3,495 and the recumbent bike is $3,695.

Steppers. The Company has one model of stepper targeting the commercial marketplace. The Cyclone-S Stepper features an advanced ergonomic handrail design, contact and Polar heart rate monitoring and a patented drive system. The list price of the Cyclone-S is $3,395.

Strength Training Products. Strength training equipment provides a physical workout by exercising the musculo-skeletal system. The Company’s strength training equipment uses weights for resistance. This product line includes selectorized single station equipment, jungle gyms, the MG525 multi-gym, functional trainers, plate-loaded equipment and free-weight equipment.

Selectorized Equipment. Selectorized single station equipment incorporates stacked weights, permitting the user to select different weight levels for a given exercise by inserting a pin at the appropriate weight level. Each selectorized product is designed for a specific muscle group with each product line utilizing a different technology targeted to facility and user type.

The Company’s selectorized equipment is sold under the trademarks “VR1”, “VR3” and “Eagle.” The VR1 line represents a value-engineered line suitable for smaller general-purpose facilities and as an entry line in larger facilities. This 20 piece line was introduced in 2007 as a replacement for the VR line. Eight new dual function machines intended for use in smaller facilities were added in 2008 and 2009. The VR3 line is a 23-piece line designed for exceptional ease of use in fitness facilities. Eagle represents the Company’s premier line and features a complete scope of use; it features ease-of-use as well as patented and patent pending technologies to meet the needs of performance oriented individuals and facilities. The Company currently sells 66 selectorized equipment products under the above lines with list prices between $2,805 and $7,495.

Jungle Gym. The Jungle Gym provides facilities with a multi-station, configurable design for essential movements. The pricing of the Jungle Gym depends on configuration. The list price of a typical Jungle Gym is $12,135.

Multi-gym. The MG525 multi-gym uses considerably less space than multiple selectorized single station equipment. It contains three weight stacks to meet the needs of the vertical commercial market, especially hotels, corporate fitness centers and other small-scale locations. This product has a list price of $6,195.

 

3


Functional Trainers. The Bravo (originally the FT-450) extends the capabilities of functional training through the ability to vary the width of the cables and to add stabilization in a progressive manner. The Company has added four additional configurations targeted to rehabilitation and sports performance markets. The FT-325 Functional trainer was introduced in mid-2011 as an entry-level commercial product. The Company also introduced three additional pieces to make up the Bravo Functional Training System. These three pieces target pressing, pulling and lifting exercises separately. These products have a list price ranging from $4,295 to $7,595.

Plate Loaded Equipment. The Company manufactures and distributes a wide range of strength equipment which mimics many of the movements found on its selectorized machines but are manually loaded with weights. These are simple products which allow varying levels of weight to be manually loaded. The Company currently offers 18 plate-loaded products, ranging in price from $1,425 to $4,185.

Free-Weight Equipment. The Company also sells free-weight benches and racks and complements them with OEM supplied dumbbells, barbells and plates. The Company’s Big Iron line of free-weight products is targeted for collegiate and professional athletic performance training. The Company offers 37 items of free-weight equipment with list prices ranging from $455 to $6,095.

Customers and Distribution

The Company markets its products to commercial customers and to individuals interested in purchasing premium quality equipment for use in the home. A commercial customer is defined as any purchaser who does not intend the product for home use. Management estimates that consumer sales represent less than 10% of 2011 net sales. Typical commercial customers are health clubs, hotels, resorts, spas, educational institutions, sports teams, sports medicine clinics, military installations, golf clubs, corporate fitness and community centers. Sales to Cutler-Owens International Ltd., an independent authorized dealer, represented 12.8%, 13.0% and 13.6% of the Company’s net sales for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Sales to Planet Fitness Equipment, LLC represented 11.1%, 12.4%, and 10.6% of the Company’s net sales for 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales for 2011, 2010 or 2009.

The Company distributes its products through independent authorized dealers, its own sales force, international distributors and its e-commerce web site (www.cybexinternational.com). The Company services its products through independent authorized dealers, international distributors, a network of independent service providers and its own service personnel.

Independent authorized dealers operate independent stores specializing in fitness-related products and promote home and commercial sales of the Company’s products. The operations of the independent dealers are primarily local or regional in nature. In North America, the Company publishes dealer performance standards which are designed to assure that the Company brand is properly positioned in the marketplace. In order to qualify as an authorized dealer, the dealer must, among other things, market and sell Cybex products in a defined territory, achieve sales objectives, have qualified sales personnel, and receive on-going product and sales training. As of March 19, 2012, the Company has approximately 57 active dealers with 131 locations in North America. The Company’s domestic sales force services this dealer network and sells direct in regions not covered by a dealer and in specialty markets, such as the military/government, fire departments, golf clubs and universities. The domestic sales team is comprised of 42 positions led by a Senior Vice President.

The national account team focuses on major market segments, such as health clubs and gyms, hotels, resorts, the U.S. government and organizations, such as YMCAs, as well as third party consultants which purchase on behalf of such national accounts. The Company has approximately 25 national accounts.

Sales outside of North America accounted for approximately 32%, 31% and 29% of the Company’s net sales for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The international sales force consists of 13 positions led by a Senior Vice President. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cybex UK, directly markets and sells Cybex products in the United Kingdom. Cybex UK has 14 employees. The Company predominantly utilizes

 

4


independent distributors for the balance of its international sales. There are approximately 74 independent international distributors in 83 countries currently representing Cybex. The Company enters into international distributor agreements with these distributors which define territories, performance standards and volume requirements.

Additional information concerning the Company’s international sales and assets located in foreign countries is located in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company markets certain products by advertising in publications which appeal to individuals within its targeted demographic profiles. In addition, the Company advertises in trade publications and participates in industry trade shows. The Company has retained Greg Norman to engage in marketing of the Company’s products, specifically to the golf club market.

The Company offers leasing and other financing options for its commercial customers. The Company arranges financing for its dealers and direct sale customers through various third party lenders for which it may receive a fee. Management believes that these activities produce incremental sales of the Company’s products.

Warranties

All products are warranted for one to three years of labor and up to ten years for structural frames. Warranty periods for parts range from one to ten years depending on the part and type of equipment. The Company also provides extended warranties on its cardiovascular products. Warranty expense for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $4,554,000, $3,547,000 and $4,940,000, respectively.

Competition

The market in which the Company operates is highly competitive. Numerous companies manufacture, sell or distribute exercise equipment. The Company currently competes primarily in the premium-performance, professional quality equipment segment of the market. The Company’s competitors vary according to product line and include companies with greater name recognition and more extensive financial and other resources than the Company.

Important competitive factors include price, product quality and performance, diversity of features, warranties and customer service. The Company follows a policy of premium quality and differentiated features which results in products having suggested retail prices at or above those of its competitors in most cases. The Company currently focuses on the segment of the market which values quality and is willing to pay a premium for products with performance advantages over the competition. Management believes that its reputation for producing products of high quality and dependability with differentiated features constitutes a competitive advantage.

Product Development

Research and development expense for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $5,726,000, $5,569,000 and $4,545,000, respectively. At December 31, 2011, the Company had the equivalent of 37 employees engaged in ongoing research and development programs. The Company’s development efforts focus on improving existing products and developing new products, with the goal of producing user-friendly, ergonomically and biomechanically correct, durable exercise equipment with competitive features. Product development is a cross functional effort of sales, marketing, product management, engineering and manufacturing, led by the Company’s Senior Vice President of Research and Development.

Manufacturing and Supply

The Company maintains two vertically integrated manufacturing facilities equipped to perform fabrication, machining, welding, grinding, assembly and finishing of its products.

 

5


The Company manufactures treadmill and bike cardiovascular products in its facility located in Medway, Massachusetts and manufactures the cross trainers and strength equipment in its facility located in Owatonna, Minnesota. Raw materials and purchased components are comprised primarily of steel, aluminum, wooden decks, electric motors, molded or extruded plastics, milled products, circuit boards for computerized controls, video monitors and upholstery. These materials are assembled, fabricated, machined, welded, powder coated and upholstered to create finished products.

The Company’s multi-gym, and Home Arc products are manufactured for the Company in Taiwan.

The Company single sources its multi-gym and Home Arc products and certain raw materials and component parts, including drive motors, belts, running decks, molded plastic components, electronics and video monitors, where it believes that sole sourcing is beneficial for reasons such as quality control and reliability of the vendor or cost. The Company attempts to reduce the risk of sole source suppliers by maintaining varying levels of inventory. However, the loss of a significant supplier, or delays or disruptions in the delivery of components or materials, or increases in material costs, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

The Company manufacturers most of its strength training equipment on a “build-to-order” basis which responds to specific sales orders. The Company manufactures its other products based upon projected sales in addition to a “build to order” basis.

Backlog

Backlog historically has not been a significant factor in the Company’s business.

Patents and Trademarks

The Company owns, licenses or has applied for various patents with respect to its products and has also registered or applied for a number of trademarks. While these patents and trademarks are of value, management does not believe that it is dependent, to any material extent, upon patent or trademark protection.

Insurance

The Company’s product liability insurance, which is on a claims made basis, provides an aggregate of $25,000,000 of annual coverage for claims made on or after December 1, 2011, $10,000,000 of annual coverage for claims made on or after December 1, 2008 and before December 1, 2011, and $5,000,000 of annual coverage for claims made prior to December 1, 2008. These policies include a deductible of a $250,000 per claim ($100,000 for claims between December 1, 2007 and December 1, 2008), with an annual aggregate deductible of $1,000,000 on claims made on or after December 1, 2008 and $750,000 on claims made prior to December 1, 2008. Reserves for self-insured retention, including claims incurred but not yet reported, are included in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Governmental Regulation

The Company’s products are not subject to material governmental regulation.

The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the environment. The Company regularly monitors and reviews its operations and practices for compliance with these laws and regulations, and management believes that it is in material compliance with such environmental laws and regulations. Despite these compliance efforts, some risk of liability is inherent in the operation of the business of the Company, as it is with other companies engaged in similar businesses, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur material costs in the future for environmental compliance.

Employees

On March 19, 2012, the Company employed 563 persons on a full-time basis. None of the Company’s employees are represented by a union. The Company considers its relations with its employees to be good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risk factors identified in the cautionary statements below could cause our actual results to differ materially from those suggested in the forward-looking statements appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, these risk factors are not exhaustive and new risks may also emerge from time to time. It is not possible for management to predict all risk factors or to assess the impact of all risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results.

We have incurred losses. While we were profitable in 2011, we incurred net losses in 2008 through 2010. In 2008, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge resulting in a net loss for the year. An approximate 19% decline in our 2009 net sales compared to the prior year was a substantial contributor to our 2009 net loss. In 2010, we incurred substantial pre-tax litigation charges related to a product liability jury award and an incremental tax provision, primarily due to the valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets as a result of the uncertainty of realization caused by the litigation charge. If we are unable to maintain our profitability and we incur losses in the future, such losses could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, liquidity, financial condition and cash flows.

We carry substantial debt. We carry a substantial amount of indebtedness. This leverage may have several important consequences, including the need to meet debt service requirements and vulnerability to changes in interest rates. This leverage may also limit our ability to raise additional capital, withstand adverse economic or business conditions and competitive pressures, and take advantage of significant business opportunities that may arise. In particular, the incurrence of losses in the future could result in the inability to meet debt service or the financial covenants pertaining to our indebtedness.

General economic conditions affect our results. Demand for our products is affected by economic conditions and consumer confidence. In times of economic uncertainty, our customers, particularly commercial customers such as fitness clubs, may become cautious in making expansion and other investments and may reduce their capital expenditures for items such as the fitness equipment offered by us. In addition, economic conditions could make it more difficult for us to collect amounts as they become due to us. While our net sales in 2010 and 2011 were 2% and 14%, respectively, above prior year results, net sales for 2009 were approximately 19% below 2008 net sales. We believe that this sales decline largely reflected our customers’ caution in making capital investment decisions due to economic conditions, both generally and in the fitness industry. If economic conditions deteriorate, our ability to generate future revenues and earnings and our business prospects, liquidity and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

We depend upon our ability to successfully develop, market and sell new or improved products. Our continued growth and ability to remain competitive will substantially depend upon our development of new or improved products. A failure to develop new or improved products on a timely basis, or which are accepted in

 

7


the marketplace, or which produce appropriate sales or profit margins, could adversely affect our ability to generate future revenues and earnings and have a negative impact on our business prospects, liquidity and financial condition.

Increases in raw material costs, or the unavailability of raw materials or components, could adversely affect us. Increases in our cost of raw materials could have a material effect on our profitability. We currently source our multi-gym and Home Arc and certain raw materials and component parts (e.g., drive motors, belts, running decks, molded plastic components, electronics and video monitors) from single suppliers. Economic conditions may make it more likely that our suppliers are unable to deliver supplies which we require on a timely basis or at all. The loss of a significant supplier, or delays or disruptions in the delivery of raw materials or components, could adversely affect our ability to generate future revenues and earnings and have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Failure to comply with our credit facilities could have a material adverse effect upon us. We failed to meet certain financial covenants contained in our credit facilities in 2009. We obtained waivers from each lender and we also renegotiated our financial covenants with our lenders. In March 2011, our financial covenants were further amended and since such date we have been in continuous compliance with our credit facilities. A failure to remain in compliance with our credit facilities could result in a number of consequences, such as our lenders requiring all indebtedness to be paid or our revolving lender refusing to extend further revolving loans, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects or financial condition.

We are subject to product liability claims that may exceed our insurance coverage. As a manufacturer of fitness products, we are inherently subject to the hazards and uncertainties of product liability litigation. We have maintained, and expect to continue to maintain, product liability insurance, and we include reserves for self insured retention in accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. While we have increased our insurance coverage and believe that our current insurance coverage is adequate, we may be subject to product liability claims which assert damages materially in excess of the limits of our insurance coverage. In December 2010, a significant jury verdict was rendered in a product liability suit. This matter was settled in 2012 for an amount substantially in excess of our available insurance coverage. It is possible that the Company could be subject to other product liability judgments or settlements which materially exceed the available insurance coverage and related reserves.

We have been involved in a number of other litigation matters and expect legal claims in the future. In addition to the product liability claims discussed above, in recent years we have been involved in other litigation matters, including with respect to intellectual property rights and contractual disputes. We expect that we will continue to be involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. While we maintain reserves for estimated litigation costs and losses, one or more adverse determinations or excessive costs in litigation affecting us could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, liquidity, financial condition and cash flows.

Our failure or inability to protect our intellectual property from misappropriation or competition could adversely affect our business prospects. Our intellectual property aids us in competing in the exercise equipment industry. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, such as through patent, trade secret and trademark protection, unauthorized parties may try to copy our products, or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect our rights to as great an extent as U.S. law. Furthermore, the patents and trademarks which we have obtained or may seek in the future may not be of a sufficient scope or strength to provide meaningful economic or competitive value. Our rights and the additional steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be adequate to deter misappropriation, and we also remain subject to the risk that our competitors or others will independently develop non-infringing products substantially equivalent or superior to our products. We also may not be able to prevent others from claiming that our products violate their proprietary rights. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, or if we are sued for infringing another party’s intellectual property, our business, financial condition, results of operation or cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

 

8


We principally use two facilities to produce our products and a material business disruption at either facility could significantly impact our business. Most of our products are manufactured or assembled in two vertically integrated facilities located in Massachusetts and Minnesota. These facilities house all our manufacturing operations and our executive offices. We take precautions to safeguard our facilities, including obtaining insurance, maintaining safety protocols and using off-site storage of computer data. However, a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, fire or flood, or an act of terrorism or vandalism could cause substantial disruption to our operations, damage or destroy our manufacturing equipment, information systems or inventory and cause us to incur substantial additional expenses. The insurance we maintain against disasters may not cover or otherwise be adequate to meet our losses in any particular case. Any disaster which prevents operations in either of our facilities for any extended period may result in decreased revenues and increased costs and could significantly harm our operating results, financial condition, cash flows and prospects.

The loss of a major customer could adversely affect us. In 2011, sales to one independent authorized dealer represented 12.8% of our net sales and sales to an end user customer represented 11.1% of net sales. These customers represented 8.1% and 11.1%, respectively, of our accounts receivable as of December 31, 2011. The concentration of customers may increase our overall exposure to credit risk. The loss or significant reduction in the business of a major customer, or a major customer experiencing financial difficulty, could significantly harm our operating results, financial condition, cash flows and prospects.

We rely on third party dealers and distributors to sell and service a significant portion of our products. In 2011, substantially more than half of our total net sales were to our independent authorized dealers in North America and to independent distributors internationally. These third party dealers and distributors may terminate their relationships with us, or fail to commit the necessary resources to sell or service our products to the level of our expectations. If current or future third party dealers or distributors do not perform adequately, or if we fail to maintain our existing relationships with them or fail to recruit and retain dealers or distributors in particular markets or geographic areas, our revenues may be adversely affected and our operating results could suffer.

Our major stockholders may exercise effective control over us. John Aglialoro, Joan Carter and UM Holdings Ltd., who are related parties, collectively own approximately 49.5% of our outstanding common stock. Such stockholders may have the ability to significantly influence (i) the election of our Board of Directors, and thus our future direction and (ii) the outcome of all other matters submitted to our stockholders, including mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets.

We face strong competition. The fitness equipment industry is highly competitive. Numerous companies manufacture, sell or distribute exercise equipment. Our competitors include companies with strong name recognition and more extensive financial and other resources than us.

Warranty claims may exceed the related reserves. We warrant our products for varying periods of up to ten years. While we maintain reserves for warranty claims, it could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, liquidity, financial condition and cash flows if warranty claims were to materially exceed anticipated levels.

We may have a liability related to the arrangement of third party financing. We offer to our customers leasing and other financing of products by third party providers, for which we may receive a fee. While most of these financings are without recourse, in certain cases we may offer a guaranty or other recourse provisions. At December 31, 2011, our maximum contingent liability under all recourse provisions was approximately $3,638,000. While we maintain a reserve for estimated losses under these recourse provisions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, liquidity, financial condition and cash flows if actual losses were to materially exceed the related reserve.

Unfavorable international political or economic changes and/or currency fluctuations could negatively impact us. Approximately 32% and 31% of our sales in 2011 and 2010, respectively, were derived from outside

 

9


North America. Political or economic changes and/or currency fluctuations in countries in which we do business could negatively impact our business and financial results, including decreases in our revenues and profitability.

Failures or breaches of our IT system could have a material adverse effect on our business. We are dependent on our information technology (IT) infrastructure. Significant problems with our infrastructure, such as telephone or IT system failure, computer viruses or other third-party tampering with IT systems, could halt or delay our ability to manufacture or distribute our products or service our customers, hinder our ability to conduct our business and require significant remediation costs. We maintain, in the ordinary course of business, sensitive customer, employee and vendor information. While we have instituted safeguards for the protection of such information, these security measures may be compromised as a result of third party security breaches, employee error, or other irregularity. A loss of confidential or proprietary data or security breaches of our IT systems could adversely affect our reputation, diminish customer confidence, and subject us to possible financial liability. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We may not be able to attract and retain key employees and the loss of any member of our senior management could negatively affect our business. We compete for the services of qualified personnel. Our future success will depend upon, to a significant degree, the performance and contribution of the members of senior management and upon our ability to attract, motivate and retain other highly qualified employees with technical, management, marketing, sales, product development, creative and other skills. Although we do have employment agreements with our executive officers, there can be no assurance that such officers will continue to perform under those contracts. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected if we lost the services of members of our senior management team or key technical or creative employees or if we failed to attract additional highly qualified employees.

Future issuances of preferred stock may adversely affect the holders of our common stock. Our Board has the ability to issue, without approval by the common stockholders, shares of one or more series of preferred stock, with the new series having such rights and preferences as the Board may determine in its sole discretion. Any series of preferred stock may have rights, including cumulative dividend, liquidation and conversion rights, senior to our common stock, which could adversely affect the holders of the common stock, as well as the economic value of the common stock.

A variety of factors may discourage potential take-over attempts. John Aglialoro, Joan Carter and UM Holdings Ltd., who are related parties, collectively own approximately 49.5% of our outstanding common stock. In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation requires an affirmative super-majority stockholder vote before we can enter into certain defined business combinations, except for combinations that meet certain specified conditions; provides for staggered three-year terms for members of the Board of Directors; and authorizes the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such preferred stock without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Each of these factors could have the effect of discouraging potential take-over attempts and may make attempts by stockholders to change our management more difficult.

In the event we are unable to satisfy regulatory requirements relating to internal control over financial reporting, or if these internal controls are not effective, our business and financial results may suffer. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reasonable assurance with respect to our financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reasonable assurance with respect to our financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed. Pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we are required to furnish a report by management on internal control over financial reporting, including management’s assessment of the effectiveness of such control. Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud. Therefore, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. In

 

10


addition, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, including any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or if we experience difficulties in their implementation, our business and operating results could be harmed, we could fail to meet our reporting obligations, and there could also be a material adverse effect on our stock price.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company occupies approximately 120,000 square feet of space in Medway, Massachusetts and approximately 340,000 square feet of space in Owatonna, Minnesota for administrative offices, manufacturing, assembly and warehousing. Both facilities are owned by the Company. The Company also utilizes outside warehousing.

Cybex UK, the Company’s wholly-owned United Kingdom subsidiary, leases approximately 728 square feet of space in Measham, England. This space is utilized for the subsidiary’s direct sales and service efforts in the United Kingdom, which serves Cybex’s operations throughout Europe.

The Company’s manufacturing facilities are equipped to perform fabrication, machining, welding, assembly and powder coating of its products. These facilities are well maintained and kept in good repair. Management believes that the Company’s facilities are adequate for its operations for the foreseeable future.

Additional information concerning the financing of the Company’s facilities is described in Notes 7 and 14 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Product Liability

As a manufacturer of fitness products, the Company is inherently subject to the hazards and uncertainties of product liability litigation. The Company has maintained, and expects to continue to maintain, product liability insurance, and it includes reserves for self insured retention in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. While the Company has increased its insurance coverage and believes it to be adequate in light of the risks of product liability claims and awards, the Company may be subject to product liability claims which assert damages materially in excess of the limits of its insurance coverage. In December 2010, a jury verdict in the Barnhard v Cybex International, Inc. product liability suit, discussed below, apportioned a significant amount of liability to the Company, which substantially exceeded the Company’s available insurance coverage. It is possible that the Company could be subject to other product liability judgments or settlements which materially exceed the available insurance coverage and related reserves.

Litigation and Contingencies

Barnhard v. Cybex International, Inc., et al.

This product liability litigation was commenced in 2005 in the Supreme Court, Eighth District, State of New York. The plaintiff, who was rendered a quadriplegic after she pulled a Cybex weight machine over onto herself, asserted that Cybex was at fault for the accident due to the design of the machine and a failure to warn. On December 7, 2010, the jury returned a $66 million verdict, apportioned 75% to Cybex, 20% to third party defendant Amherst Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C. and 5% to the plaintiff.

 

11


In January 2011, the Company filed post-trial motions, seeking, alternatively, judgment in its favor as a matter of law, a new trial and a reduction of the verdict. In February 2011, the trial court denied these motions, and the Company thereafter filed an appeal from this post-trial order with the Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department. In April 2011, a judgment was entered for $63,075,000 against Cybex. Under New York law, Cybex was responsible for payment of the judgment but could seek reimbursement from the co-defendant of approximately 21% of its payments on the judgment. The Company filed an appeal of the judgment with the Appellate Division. In May 2011, the Appellate Division granted the Company’s motion for a stay of enforcement of the Barnhard judgment during the pendency of the Company’s appeals, subject to the posting of collateral aggregating $10,000,000. In November 2011, the Appellate Division rendered a decision in the Company’s appeals, reducing the judgment by approximately 31%, to approximately $44 million, and otherwise affirming the judgment.

In February 2012, the parties entered into a settlement agreement. Pursuant to this settlement, Cybex paid to the plaintiff, net of insurance and contribution by the third party defendant, approximately $18,500,000 and agreed to pay the additional sum of approximately $1,000,000 over a seven year period, the parties provided cross-releases of all claims, and the litigation will be dismissed with prejudice.

The Company is involved in certain other legal actions, contingencies and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these other matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Legal fees related to those matters are charged to expense as incurred.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

Statements included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations may contain forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by the statements made below. These include, but are not limited to, our ability to comply with the terms of our credit facilities, competitive factors, technological and product developments, market demand, economic conditions, and the resolution of litigation involving us. Further information on these and other factors which could affect our financial results can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

We are a New York corporation that develops, manufacturers and markets high performance, professional quality exercise equipment products for the commercial market and, to a lesser extent, the premium segment of the consumer market.

We estimate that commercial sales represent more than 90% of our total net sales. Our financial performance can be affected when, in times of economic uncertainty, our commercial customers, particularly fitness clubs, become cautious in making expansion and other capital investments and reduce their expenditures for items such as the fitness equipment offered by us.

Our net sales began to decline commencing with the fourth quarter of 2008, with net sales in 2009 and 2010 approximately 19% and 17%, respectively, below 2008 net sales. We believe that this sales decline largely reflected our commercial customers, particularly fitness clubs, being cautious in making capital investments due to economic conditions, both generally and in the fitness industry. Our sales began to recover in 2010, with 2010 net sales approximately 2% above 2009 net sales. This recovery accelerated in 2011, with our net sales for 2011 14% above net sales for 2010. While we believe that this recovery in sales may reflect improving economic and industry conditions as well as our marketing and new product initiatives, there is no assurance that the improved sales trend will continue. We also cannot be certain the extent that other factors, such as changes in economic conditions, will affect our financial performance.

We took various steps to reduce expenses in response to the decline in our sales in 2009. These steps included a first quarter 2009 work force reduction of about 5% and a wage reduction of 3% or 5% for all employees in effect from the second quarter 2009 to December 31, 2009. In addition, at the request of our outside Board members, a 5% reduction in director fees was in effect during the period of the employee wage reduction. We intend to monitor general economic conditions and our sales performance and, if warranted, may implement further cost saving measures.

In December 2010, the jury in the Barnhard product liability suit described elsewhere in this Report apportioned a significant amount of liability to us, substantially exceeding our available insurance coverage for this matter. In February 2012, we entered into a settlement agreement with the plaintiff. Pursuant to this settlement, we paid to the plaintiff, net of insurance and contribution by the third party defendant, approximately $18,500,000 and agreed to pay an additional sum of approximately $1,000,000 over seven years, the parties provided cross-releases of all claims, and the litigation will be dismissed with prejudice. To fund a portion of these payments we incurred additional debt from our primary lender.

The foregoing statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. In particular, the continued uncertainties in U.S. and global economic conditions and in the fitness industry make it particularly difficult to predict future events and may preclude us from achieving expected results.

NET SALES

Our net sales increased $17,168,000, or 14%, to $140,129,000 in 2011 compared with a $2,487,000, or 2%, increase in 2010 compared to 2009.

The increase in 2011 was attributable to increases in sales of cardiovascular products of $6,848,000, or 10%, to $76,210,000, increased sales of strength products of $7,595,000, or 19%, to $48,615,000 and increased freight, parts and other sales of $2,725,000, or 21%, to $15,304,000. Both U.S. and international markets were strong.

The increase in 2010 was attributable to increases in sales of cardiovascular products of $2,658,000, or 4%, to $69,362,000 and increased freight, parts and other sales of $801,000, or 7%, to $12,579,000, offset by decreases in sales of strength products of $972,000, or 2%, to $41,020,000.

We believe that the overall increases in sales are reflective of improving economic conditions as well as our marketing and new product initiatives.

Sales outside of North America represented 32%, 31% and 29% of consolidated net sales in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

GROSS MARGIN

Gross margin was 35.6% in 2011, compared with 36.5% in 2010 and 29.9% in 2009. Margins decreased in 2011 due to higher warranty costs (0.3%) and higher costs of introducing our new treadmill models (0.6%).

Margins increased in 2010 due to higher selling prices (2.3%), favorable product mix (1.2%), lower warranty costs (1.2%), lower component costs (.9%), lower obsolescence expense (.9%) and lower manufacturing costs (.1%).

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses, decreased by $401,000, or 1%, in 2011 to $41,671,000 compared to an increase of $4,392,000, or 12%, in 2010. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses were 30%, 34% and 31% in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The 2011 decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was predominantly due to lower advertising and promotional costs partially offset by additional marketing and international personnel.

 

18


The 2010 increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was predominantly due to higher sales and marketing costs ($3,551,000) including initiatives directed to new markets, higher sales compensation and advertising costs.

LITIGATION CHARGE (REDUCTION)

The 2010 litigation charge relates to the unfavorable jury verdict in the Barnhard product liability suit, and the 2011 reduction to this charge reflects the settlement of the litigation. See Note 14 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

Net interest expense decreased by $256,000, or 20%, in 2011 to $1,004,000 compared to a decrease of $14,000, or 1%, in 2010. During 2011, interest expense decreased due to lower interest rates on our equipment facility, as well as lower debt balances. During 2010, interest expense decreased due to lower interest rates on our equipment facility offset by higher interest earned in 2009 from a financing program.

INCOME TAXES

A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded to the extent it cannot be determined that the realization of these assets is more likely than not. Due to the uncertainty created by an unfavorable product liability jury verdict (see Note 14 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements), we determined that a valuation allowance against the entire amount of our deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2010 was necessary. Since the required settlement payment for the Barnhard litigation in 2012 will increase our net operating loss carryforwards by approximately $18,500,000, and since we incurred cumulative losses during the three year period ended December 31, 2011, we determined that a valuation allowance against the entire amount of our deferred tax assets continues to be appropriate as of December 31, 2011. Since our deferred tax assets are fully reserved as of December 31, 2011, income tax expense recorded is the amount of state and federal alternative minimum tax that is currently payable, which was partially offset by a refund of federal alternative minimum taxes paid in prior years of $257,000, recorded as a benefit in 2011 since it was fully reserved as of December 31, 2010. We recorded an income tax expense (benefit) of $36,000, $13,761,000 and ($509,000) for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. The effective tax rate was 43.5% and 72.3% in 2011 and 2010, respectively, excluding the litigation charge and adjustments to the charge and related tax expense, and a benefit of (17.3%) in 2009. Charges related to the Barnhard matter were not deductible in 2010 and 2011 since no payments were made until the 2012 settlement. Actual cash outlays for taxes continue to be reduced by the available operating loss carryforwards and credits.

As of December 31, 2011, U.S. federal operating loss carryforwards of approximately $9,535,000 (exclusive of the settlement payment for the Barnhard litigation of approximately $18,500,000 that was made in 2012) were available to us to offset future taxable income and, as of such date, we also had foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $6,626,000, federal alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of $539,000 and federal research and development tax credit carryforwards of $490,000.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of December 31, 2011, we had working capital of $7,862,000 compared to a negative working capital of $26,611,000 at December 31, 2010. The net increase in working capital is primarily due to the reduction of the net Barnhard litigation accrual as a result of the settlement of the suit and the operating profit generated during the period.

For the year ended December 31, 2011, we generated $9,521,000 of cash from operating activities compared to $4,188,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in 2011 compared to 2010 is primarily due to increased operating income (exclusive of litigation charge/settlement adjustment and related tax expense).

 

19


Cash used in investing activities of $3,073,000 in 2011 consisted of purchases of manufacturing tooling and equipment of $2,385,000, primarily for the manufacture of new products, and computer hardware and infrastructure of $688,000. Cash used in investing activities of $2,240,000 during 2010 consisted of purchases of manufacturing tooling and equipment of $1,443,000, primarily for the manufacture of new products, and computer hardware and infrastructure of $797,000. While 2012 capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $3,700,000, the timing and amount of these expenditures will depend on economic conditions, the results of our operations and our other cash needs.

For the year ended December 31, 2011, cash used in financing activities of $1,520,000 consisted of principal payments on the Citizens equipment facility and real estate loan. For the year ended December 31, 2010, cash used in financing activities of $1,797,000 consisted of $5,863,000 in repayment of the Wells Fargo Bank, NA (“Wells Fargo”) term loans and $933,000 of principal payments on the Citizens real estate loan, offset by $4,999,000 advanced under the Citizens equipment facility.

We have credit facilities with RBS Citizens, National Association and RBS Asset Finance, Inc. (collectively, “Citizens”). Our Citizens Credit Agreement provides a revolving line of credit of up to the lesser of a ceiling or an amount determined by reference to a borrowing base. In addition to working capital loans, the revolving line of credit can also be utilized for letters of credit, and in June 2011, an $8,000,000 letter of credit was issued under the Citizens Credit Agreement to support the stay in the Barnhard litigation described elsewhere in this Report. This letter of credit was terminated in connection with the 2012 settlement of the litigation. Our Citizens Loan Agreement provided for a $13,000,000 real estate loan which was advanced in 2007 to finance the acquisition of our Owatonna facility. In March 2012, the Citizens Credit Agreement and Loan Agreement were amended to, among other things, increase the ceiling to our revolving line of credit to $18,000,000 and provide a $8,122,000 real estate loan on our Medway facility. This additional borrowing capacity was used to finance a portion of the settlement payments in the Barnhard product liability suit (see Note 14 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements). Our Citizens equipment facility has provided $4,999,000 of equipment lease financing, the proceeds of which were used in June 2010 to retire equipment term loans and related obligations to Wells Fargo. The Citizens real estate loans and revolving line of credit are secured by substantially all of our assets. The Citizens equipment facility is secured by our equipment, is cross-collateralized by our accounts receivable and inventory and matures on July 1, 2015. The Citizens Owatonna real estate loan matures on July 2, 2014, the Medway real estate loan matures on March 15, 2017 and the Citizens revolving line of credit matures on July 2, 2013.

At December 31, 2011, there were no outstanding revolving credit loans, a $10,703,000 real estate loan and $3,586,000 outstanding under the Citizens equipment facility. Availability under the revolving loan fluctuates daily based on the borrowing base and is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. At March 15, 2012, the availability under the revolving line of credit was $13,971,000.

Our credit facilities include financial covenants. These financial covenants were amended in March 2011. At December 31, 2011, we were in compliance with each credit facility’s financial covenants, as amended. While there can be no assurance, we believe that we will remain in compliance with our financing agreements during at least the next 12 months.

We rely upon cash flows from our operations and borrowings under our credit facilities to fund our working capital and capital expenditure requirements. We believe that our cash flows and the availability under our credit facilities are sufficient to fund our general working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. However, a decline in sales or margins or a failure to remain in compliance with the terms of our credit facilities could result in having insufficient funds for our working capital and capital expenditure needs.

As of December 31, 2011, we had approximately $16,161,000 in U.S. Federal and non-U.S. net operating loss carry forwards, substantially all of which will be available to offset future taxable income. These losses do not include the charges relating to the settlement of the Barnhard matter, as these charges are not deductible for income tax purposes until paid.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP RESULTS

The following table sets forth certain financial information for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 excluding the litigation (reduction) charge and the related tax impact, respectively. This presentation is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and the table includes a reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results. We believe that the non-GAAP statement of operations data is a beneficial supplemental disclosure in analyzing and assessing our operating performance, exclusive of the effects of the litigation (reduction) charge and related adjustment to the valuation allowance, and to provide a basis for reviewing our operating performance on a consistent basis for the periods presented. In addition, management utilizes this information in analyzing our performance and for planning purposes.

This table does not include the net amount of $19,508,000 payable in connection with the settlement of the Barnhard v. Cybex International, Inc. litigation described in Item 3, Legal Proceedings, of which $18,500,000 was paid in March 2012, with the balance payable over seven years. A portion of the settlement was financed through additional borrowings under our amended credit facilities dated as of March 15, 2012.

We have agreements with our named executive officers that provide for severance payments to the officer in the event the employee is terminated without cause or, in certain situations, the officer resigns after a change in control. As further described in Note 14, Employment Agreements, to the Company’s consolidated financial

 

21


statements, the maximum cash exposure under these agreements was $2,340,000 as of December 31, 2011. The actual amounts to be paid can only be determined at the time of the executive officer’s separation from the Company.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have a lease financing program, whereby we arrange equipment leases and other financing for certain commercial customers for selected products. These leases are sales-type leases and are generally for terms of three to five years, at which time title transfers to the lessee. While most of these financings are without recourse, in certain cases we may offer a guaranty or other recourse provisions. At December 31, 2011, the maximum contingent liability under all recourse provisions was approximately $3,638,000. A reserve for estimated losses under recourse provisions of $203,000 has been recorded based upon historical experience, and is included in accrued liabilities at December 31, 2011.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to provide a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The requirements include additional disclosure of transfers between Level 1 to Level 2, Level 3 measurement, an entity’s use of an asset being different from its highest and best use, and for financial instruments not measured at fair value. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted these requirements and there was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in the financial statements. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, and instead requires consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income either in a continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The standard also requires that items reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income be presented on the face of the financial statements. However, in December 2011, the FASB finalized a proposal to defer the requirement to present reclassifications from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements and require that reclassification adjustments be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, consistent with the existing disclosure requirements. The deferral does not change the requirement to present net income, components of other comprehensive income, and total comprehensive income in either one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance is effective for the periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted these requirements early, with retrospective application to all periods presented, except with regard to the requirement to present reclassifications from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to the allowance for doubtful accounts, realizability of inventory, reserves for warranty obligations, reserves for legal matters and product liability, and valuation of deferred tax assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable

 

22


under the circumstances, the 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 under different assumptions or conditions, which could materially impact the Company’s results of operations and financial position. These critical accounting policies and estimates have been discussed with the Company’s audit committee.

Allowance for doubtful accounts. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. Management continuously monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. If the financial condition of a specific customer or the Company’s general customer base were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Realizability of inventory. The Company values inventory at the lower of cost or market. Management regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on estimated forecasts of product demand and historical usage, after considering the impact of new products. If actual market conditions and product demand are less favorable than projected, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Warranty reserve. All products are warranted for one to three years of labor and up to ten years for structural frames. Warranty periods for parts range from one to ten years depending on the part and the type of equipment. A warranty liability is recorded at the time of product sale based on estimates that are developed from historical information and certain assumptions about future events. Future warranty obligations are affected by product failure rates, usage and service costs incurred in addressing warranty claims. These factors are impacted by the level of new product introductions and the mix of equipment sold to the commercial and consumer markets. If actual warranty costs differ from management’s estimates, adjustments to the warranty liability would be required.

Legal matters. The Company will record a reserve related to certain legal matters for which it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the range of such loss can be determined. With respect to other matters, management has concluded that a loss is only possible or remote and, therefore, no loss is recorded. As additional information becomes available, the Company will continue to assess whether losses from legal matters are probable, possible, or remote, and the adequacy of accruals for probable loss contingencies.

Product liability reserve. Due to the nature of its products, the Company is involved in certain pending product liability claims and lawsuits. The Company maintains product liability insurance coverage subject to deductibles. Reserves for self-insured retention, including claims incurred but not yet reported, are included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, based on management’s review of outstanding claims and claims history and consultation with its third-party claims administrators. The Company records a reserve for the self insured retention portion of product liability matters for which it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the range of the loss can be determined. The Company records a reserve and a corresponding insurance receivable if the amount of the product liability exposure is recoverable from the Company’s insurance carrier. If actual results vary from management’s estimates, adjustments to the reserve would be required. See Notes 5 and 14 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for further discussion on product liability.

The Company, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, recorded a $27,004,000 and $62,696,000 litigation reserve, respectively, as a current liability pertaining to the Barnhard jury verdict and settlement, and a corresponding litigation related receivable of $7,561,000 and $15,904,000, respectively, representing the amount recoverable from the third party defendant in the matter and the estimated amount recoverable under the Company’s insurance policies. The Company also accrued $859,000 and $947,000, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, for product liability claims and a corresponding receivable for the liability claims estimated to

 

23


be recoverable under the Company’s insurance policies, respectively. This product liability claims accrual is included as a component of other liabilities and the insurance recoverable is included as a component of other assets at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews and adjusts each product liability claim and corresponding receivable.

Valuation of deferred tax assets. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets if it is more-likely-than-not that such assets will not be realized. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, there is a valuation allowance of $18,595,000 and $32,158,000, which reduces the Company’s net deferred tax assets to zero. Approximately $47,700,000 of future taxable income is needed to fully recognize the Company’s deferred tax assets. If the estimates and related assumptions relating to the likely utilization of the deferred tax asset change in the future, the valuation allowance may change accordingly.

 

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to interest rate changes and also to reduce volatility of its financing costs. Under these swaps the Company agrees with a counterparty to exchange the difference between fixed-rate and floating-rate interest amounts based on agreed notational principal amounts. These agreements are considered highly effective as cash flow hedges for a portion of the Company’s variable debt, and hedge accounting is used to account for these instruments.

The Company has an interest rate swap which effectively converts the Citizens Owatonna real estate loan in the amount of $10,703,000 at December 31, 2011 from a floating rate to a fixed rate of 8.25% to 8.75% based on a performance grid. See Notes 8 and 9 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for further discussion of these instruments. A change in interest rates would not materially impact the Company’s interest expense because the interest rate swap effectively converts the majority of the Company’s outstanding debt to fixed rate debt.

Foreign Currency Rates

The Company at times uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its foreign currency exposure on sales made in the UK in British Sterling. There were no foreign currency forward contracts outstanding at December 31, 2011 or 2010. Foreign currency fluctuations do not have a significant impact on the business because most purchases and sales are denominated in US dollars.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Cybex International, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cybex International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cybex International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—BACKGROUND

Cybex International, Inc. (the “Company” or “Cybex”), a New York corporation, is a manufacturer of exercise equipment and develops, manufactures and markets strength and cardiovascular fitness equipment products for the commercial and, to a lesser extent, consumer markets. Most of the Company’s products are sold under the brand name “Cybex.” The Company operates in one business segment.

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, warranty reserve, reserves for legal and product liability matters, recoverability of long-lived assets and valuation of deferred tax assets are the items that are most susceptible to changes in estimates.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s cash equivalents consisted of a money market account. The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value.

Trade Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is management’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Management determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience and a specific review of past due balances over a specified amount. Management reviews the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Cost includes materials, labor and manufacturing overhead.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Betterments and improvements are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives for financial reporting purposes. The estimated useful lives for financial reporting purposes are 25 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment.

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews property, plant and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying value of the assets to the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets. If a write down were necessary, an impairment charge would be recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value, as determined based upon quoted market prices or discounted cash flows. Management believes that no long-lived assets were impaired as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Accrued Warranty Obligations

All products are warranted for one to three years of labor and for parts ranging from one to ten years depending on the part and the type of equipment. Warranty expense was $4,554,000, $3,547,000 and $4,940,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The accrued warranty obligation is provided at the time of product sale based on management estimates, which are developed from historical information and certain assumptions about future events and are subject to change. The amount expected to be paid in the following year is classified in accrued liabilities.

The following table sets forth the changes in the liability for product warranties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

 

     Year Ended December 31,  
     2011     2010  

Balance as of January 1

   $ 3,392,000      $ 3,988,000

     4,554,000        3,547,000   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Balance as of December 31

   $ 4,228,000      $ 3,392,000   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Derivatives

At December 31, 2011, derivative instruments include one interest rate swap that hedges variable rate interest payments.

See Notes 7, 8 and 9 for further discussion of this financial instrument.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiary, whose functional currency is its local currency, is translated at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. The adjustment resulting from translating the financial statements of such foreign subsidiary is reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders’ equity.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt and derivative instruments. The carrying values of cash equivalents, accounts

 

F-7


CYBEX INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

receivable and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. Based on the terms of the Company’s debt instruments that are outstanding as of December 31, 2011, the carrying values are considered to approximate their respective fair values.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recorded when products are shipped and the Company has no significant remaining obligations, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collection of the relevant receivable is probable. The Company does not offer its customers a right of return, price protection or inventory rotation programs. The Company classifies amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling as sales. Direct shipping and handling costs are classified as cost of sales. Internal salaries and overhead related to shipping and handling are classified as selling, general and administrative expense. Sales tax collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

Concentration of Risk, Geographic Segment Data and Enterprise-Wide Disclosures

More than half of the Company’s net sales are through specialty fitness dealers and distributors. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. Sales to one customer in 2011, 2010 and 2009 were 12.8%, 13.0% and 13.6% of net sales, respectively. Accounts receivable from that customer was $1,641,000 and $1,779,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Sales to another customer in 2011, 2010, and 2009 were 11.1%, 12.4%, and 10.6% of net sales, respectively. Accounts receivable from that customer was $2,252,000 and $1,265,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. No other single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales in any of those years.

There is no single geographic area of significant concentration other than the U.S. Sales outside of North America accounted for approximately 32%, 31% and 29% of total net sales for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Long-lived assets located in foreign countries totaled $23,000 and $20,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company single sources its multi-gym and Home Arc products and certain raw materials and component parts, including drive motors, belts, running decks, molded plastic components, electronics and video monitors, where management believes that sole sourcing is beneficial for reasons such as quality control and reliability of the vendor or cost. The Company attempts to reduce the risk of sole source suppliers by maintaining varying levels of inventory. However, the loss of a significant supplier, or delays or disruptions in the delivery of components or materials, or increases in material costs, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

The following table summarizes net sales over the past three years (in millions):

Advertising Costs

The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, advertising expense was $2,738,000, $3,660,000 and $1,763,000, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Such costs were $5,726,000, $5,569,000, and $4,545,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income Taxes

The asset and liability method is used in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets if it is more-likely-than-not that such assets will not be realized.

The table below sets forth the reconciliation of the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share computations:

For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, options to purchase 633,125, 791,125 and 577,375 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.17 to $7.37, $1.17 to $7.37 and $1.20 to $7.37 per share, respectively, were outstanding but were not included in the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share as the result would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, with such cost recognized over the period that the employee is required to perform services in exchange for the award. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant date fair value of the award. For 2011, the Company

recorded stock-based compensation expense of $171,000, consisting of expenses related to stock options ($161,000) and stock issued to directors ($10,000). For 2010, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $219,000, consisting of expenses related to stock options ($205,000) and stock issued to directors ($14,000).

No stock options were granted in 2011. The weighted average fair value of each stock option granted during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $0.77 and $0.98, respectively. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

     Year Ended December 31,  
               2011                 2010      2009  

Risk free interest rate

     *         2.87% - 3.04%         2.27% - 3.05%   

Expected dividend yield

     *         —           —     

Expected life

     *         6.25 years         6.25 years   

Expected volatility

     *         70%         68% - 70%   

Expected volatility—weighted average

     *         70%         69%   

 

* Not applicable

Expected volatilities are calculated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock over the expected term of the option. Management monitors stock option exercise and employee termination patterns to estimate forfeiture rates within the valuation model. The expected term of the option is derived using the simplified method. The risk free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on the U.S. Treasury yield curve with a term approximating the expected life of the option.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to provide a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The requirements include additional disclosure of transfers between Level 1 to Level 2, Level 3 measurement, an entity’s use of an asset being different from its highest and best use, and for financial instruments not measured at fair value. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted these requirements and there was no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in the financial statements. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, and instead requires consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income either in a continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The standard also requires that items reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income be presented on the face of the financial statements. However, in December 2011, the FASB finalized a proposal to defer the requirement to present reclassifications from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements and require that reclassification adjustments be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, consistent with the existing

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

disclosure requirements. The deferral does not change the requirement to present net income, components of other comprehensive income, and total comprehensive income in either one continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance is effective for the periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted these requirements early, with retrospective application to all periods presented, except with regard to the requirements to present reclassifications from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications to prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current presentation.

In June 2007, a $13,000,000 real estate loan was advanced to the Company pursuant to the loan agreement (the “Citizens Loan Agreement”) with RBS Citizens, National Association (“Citizens”). The proceeds of this loan were used to finance a portion of the acquisition of an approximate 340,000 square foot manufacturing, office and warehouse facility located in Owatonna, Minnesota. The principal of the Owatonna real estate loan is being retired by eighty three equal monthly payments of $43,000 along with a balloon payment of $9,403,000 at July 2, 2014.

In July 2007, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Wells Fargo Loan Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, NA, formerly named Wachovia Bank, NA (“Wells Fargo”), which was supplemented and modified in March 2008, March 2009 and December 2009. The Wells Fargo Loan Agreement as supplemented and modified provided for three term loans aggregating $7,975,000, the proceeds of which financed the acquisition of machinery and equipment. The Wells Fargo term loans were prepaid in full in June 2010 with the proceeds of the Citizens Equipment Facility. The Wells Fargo term loans were secured by the Company’s equipment.

In July 2008, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Citizens Credit Agreement”) with Citizens, providing for a revolving line of credit of up to the lesser of a ceiling or an amount determined by reference to a borrowing base composed of designated percentages of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory. In addition to working capital loans, the revolving line of credit can also be utilized for letters of credit, and in June 2011, an $8,000,000 letter of credit was issued under the Citizens Credit Agreement to support the stay in the Barnhard product liability suit, which letter of credit was terminated in connection with the 2012 settlement of the litigation (see Note 14).

In March 2012, the Citizens Credit Agreement and Loan Agreement were amended to among other things increase the ceiling to the revolving line of credit to $18,000,000 and provide a $8,122,000 mortgage loan on the Company’s Medway facility. This additional borrowing capacity was used to finance a portion of the settlement payments in the Barnhard product liability suit. The principal of the Medway real estate loan is to be retired by sixty equal monthly payments of $45,000 along with a balloon payment of $5,415,000 at March 15, 2017.

Availability under the revolving loan fluctuates daily based on the borrowing base, and is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. At December 31, 2011 and March 15, 2012, the net remaining availability under the revolving line of credit was $2,000,000 and $13,971,000, respectively. The Citizens revolving line of credit is available to July 2, 2013.

In June 2010, the Company entered into a Master Lease Agreement (the “Citizens Equipment Facility”) with an affiliate of Citizens, RBS Asset Finance, Inc. (referred to herein as “Citizens”), pursuant to which $4,999,000 of equipment lease financing was advanced. Proceeds of the advance were used to retire in full the

NOTE 7—LONG-TERM DEBT (continued)

 

Wells Fargo equipment term loans and related obligations. The Citizens Equipment Facility is being retired by 60 equal monthly payments of fixed rent plus interest. While the documentation for this transaction is structured as a lease, the advances under the facility are treated for all purposes as a loan.

The Owatonna real estate loan, the Medway real estate loan and the revolving line of credit are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. Amounts outstanding under the Citizens Equipment Facility are secured by designated equipment owned by the Company and cross-collateralized by the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory.

The Citizens revolving line of credit prior to April 1, 2009 bore interest at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.25% or the prime rate minus 1%, from April 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25%, and from June 30, 2009 to March 15, 2012 bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% to 3.0% based on a performance grid. The Citizens Owatonna real estate loan prior to April 1, 2009 bore interest at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.2% per annum, from April 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25%, and from June 30, 2009 to March 15, 2012 bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% to 3.0% based on a performance grid. From March 15, 2012, the Citizens Owatonna real estate loan and Medway real estate loan bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% and the Citizens revolving line of credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.0% to 3.75% based on a performance grid. The Citizens Equipment Facility bears interest at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus 3%. The Wells Fargo initial and second term loans prior to April 1, 2009 bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.2% to 1.45% based on a performance grid and from April 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 these loans bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25%. The third Wells Fargo term loan prior to June 30, 2009 bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25%. After June 30, 2009, each Wells Fargo term loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 3.5%. LIBOR was .30% at December 31, 2011.

There were no revolving loans outstanding during 2011 and 2010. The average outstanding revolving loan balance during 2009 was $859,000 and the weighted average interest rate was 1.77%. Interest expense on the revolving line of credit, including an unused availability fee on the revolving loans, was $13,000, $25,000, and $50,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. Interest expense on the Wells Fargo term loans, which were retired at the end of the second quarter 2010, was $219,000 and $332,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest expense on the Citizens Owatonna real estate loan, including interest rate swap payments, was $911,000, $973,000 and $963,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. Interest expense on the Citizens Equipment Facility, which was advanced at the end of the second quarter 2010, was $132,000 and $87,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company’s credit facilities require the Company to maintain various financial covenants. The Company failed to meet certain of these covenants at the end of the first and second quarters of 2009, which failures were waived by the lenders. In connection with these waivers, the Company entered into amendments to its credit facilities. The Wells Fargo amendments increased the interest rate on the term loans, modified the financial covenants, and increased the collateral for the term loans to include all of the Company’s equipment. The Citizens amendments increased the interest rate on the credit facilities, cross-collateralized the Citizens credit facilities, reduced the ceiling and modified the borrowing base calculation for the revolving line of credit, and amended the financial and certain other covenants contained in the credit facilities. In June 2010, the Company, coincident with entering into the Citizens Equipment Facility, entered into a further amendment with Citizens, modifying a financial covenant in the Citizens Loan Agreement and Credit Agreement. In March 2011, the parties entered into amendments to the Citizens credit facilities which further modified the financial covenants, thereby permitting the Company to remain in compliance with them as of December 31, 2010 and to date. While there can be no assurance, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance with its financing agreements for at least the next 12 months.

NOTE 8—DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company uses certain financial derivatives to mitigate its exposure to volatility in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company uses these derivative instruments to hedge exposures in the ordinary course of business and does not invest in derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

Foreign currency forward contracts are utilized at times to hedge the foreign currency exposure on sales made in the UK in British Sterling. The Company’s UK sales are denominated in British Sterling, while its purchases of inventory from the Company are paid in US dollars. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and accordingly changes in their fair value are recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Interest rate swap agreements are utilized to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on certain debt. These agreements were designated as cash flow hedges and, therefore, changes in the fair value of the swap are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

In February 2009, the Company entered into a series of 10 monthly forward contracts that began on March 31, 2009, whereby the Company paid a bank 130,000 British Sterling and the bank paid the Company $214,000 each month. This series of contracts ended on December 31, 2009. No foreign exchange forward contracts were outstanding during 2011 and 2010.

In June 2006, the Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement with Citizens which commenced on June 29, 2007 to hedge the LIBOR-based Citizens Owatonna real estate loan. The notional amount of the swap amortizes based on the same amortization schedule as the Citizens Loan Agreement and the hedged item (one-month LIBOR) is the same as the basis for the interest rate on the loan. The swap effectively converts the rate from a floating rate based on LIBOR to a fixed rate which prior to April 1, 2009 equaled 6.95%, from April 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 equaled 8.00% and from June 30, 2009 to March 15, 2012 equaled 8.25% or 8.75% based on a performance grid. From March 15, 2012, the fixed rate equals 8.25%. The swap and interest payments on the debt settle monthly. The real estate loan and the swap both mature on July 2, 2014. There was no initial cost of the interest rate swap. The Company designates the interest rate swap as a hedging instrument and, accordingly, the changes in the fair value of this swap are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

In November 2007, the Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement with Wells Fargo, which commenced on March 3, 2008, intended to hedge the initial LIBOR-based Wells Fargo term loan. The notional amount of the swap amortized based on the same amortization schedule as the initial Wells Fargo term loan and the hedged item (one-month LIBOR) was the same as the basis for the interest rate on the loan. The swap effectively converted the rate from a floating rate based on LIBOR to a fixed rate which prior to

April 1, 2009 equaled 5.76% or 6.01% based on a performance grid, from April 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 equaled 6.81% and after June 30, 2009 equaled 8.06%. The Company determined the interest rate swap qualified as a derivative hedging instrument and, accordingly, changes in the fair value of this swap were recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The interest rate swap was terminated in June 2010 in connection with the prepayment of the Wells Fargo term loans. There was no initial cost of the interest rate swap, and upon termination the Company paid $71,000 in settlement of the interest rate swap.

See Note 9—Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a description of how the above financial instruments are valued.

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to these financial instruments. The counterparties to all derivative transactions are major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings, and although no assurances can be given, the Company does not expect any of the counterparties to fail to meet its obligations. The credit exposure related to these financial instruments is represented by the fair value of contracts with a positive fair value at the reporting date. Therefore, the Company had no exposure to its counterparties as of December 31, 2011.

For the cash flow hedges referred to above, the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss are reclassified into earnings as the underlying hedged item affects earnings. The amount expected to be reclassified into pre-tax earnings in the next 12 months is $281,000. The timing of actual amounts reclassified into earnings is dependent on future movement in interest rates.

NOTE 9—FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt and derivative instruments. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. Based on the terms of the Company’s debt instruments that are outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, the carrying values are considered to approximate their respective fair values. See Note 7 for the terms and carrying values of the Company’s various debt instruments.

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value and is described below:

 

  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

  Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Stock Options

2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan

Cybex’s 2005 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) is designed to provide incentives that will attract and retain individuals key to the success of the Company through direct or indirect ownership of the Company’s common stock. The Omnibus Plan provides for the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, performance awards and bonus stock purchase awards. The Company reserved 1,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the Omnibus Plan. A registration statement has been filed for the Omnibus Plan and the Company provides newly-issued shares of registered common stock upon the exercise of options and upon stock grants under the Omnibus Plan.

NOTE 10—STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT) (continued)

 

The terms and conditions of each award are determined by a committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. Under the Omnibus Plan, the committee may grant either qualified or nonqualified stock options with a term not to exceed ten years from the grant date and at an exercise price per share that the committee may determine (which in the case of incentive stock options may not be less than the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant). The options generally vest over a three to five year period (with some cliff vesting).

1995 Omnibus Incentive Plan

The terms and conditions of grants of stock options under the 1995 Omnibus Incentive Plan were determined by a committee of the Board of Directors. Options outstanding under this plan were granted at exercise prices which were not less than the fair market value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and were exercisable over a period not to exceed ten years from the original date of grant. No future grants may be made under this plan.

Stock Retainer Plan for Nonemployee Directors

The Company’s 2002 Stock Retainer Plan for Nonemployee Directors (“2002 Plan”) provided that each nonemployee director received 50% of his annual retainer in shares of common stock of the Company. Up to 150,000 shares of common stock could be issued under the 2002 Plan. The January 2009 issuance of 18,270 shares under the 2002 Plan which related to services performed in 2008, exhausted the authorized shares under the Plan, and the Board of Directors in February 2009 suspended its operation. The issuance of shares as partial payment of annual retainers resulted in expense being recognized based on the fair market value of such shares.

NOTE 11—INCOME TAXES (continued)

 

In addition, the Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $6,626,000, which have an unlimited life, federal alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of $539,000, which do not expire, federal research and development tax credit carryforwards of $490,000, which begin to expire in 2021 and various net operating loss and credit carryforwards for state tax purposes.

The Company recorded an increase in the valuation allowance of $30,656,000 in 2010 to fully offset net deferred tax assets of $32,158,000 as of December 31, 2010. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded to the extent it cannot be determined that the realization of these assets is more likely than not. Due to the uncertainty created by the unfavorable Barnhard jury verdict (see Note 14), it was determined that a valuation allowance against the entire amount of deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2010 was necessary. Since the required settlement payment for the Barnhard litigation in 2012 will increase the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards by approximately $18,500,000, and since the Company incurred cumulative losses during the three year period ended December 31, 2011, it was determined that a valuation allowance against the entire amount of deferred tax assets continues to be appropriate as of December 31, 2011. Therefore, the Company’s net deferred tax assets of $18,595,000 are fully reserved as of December 31, 2011, and the need for this valuation allowance will be assessed in future periods. As of December 31, 2011, approximately $47,700,000 of future taxable income is needed to fully realize the Company’s deferred tax assets. The difference between this figure and the net operating loss carryforwards and credits is primarily cumulative book versus tax differences related to various expenses.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, the United Kingdom and various state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, United Kingdom and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006.

The Company has evaluated any uncertain tax positions in its federal income tax return, United Kingdom return and the state tax returns it is currently filing. The Company has also made an evaluation of the potential impact of additional state taxes being assessed by jurisdictions in which the Company does not currently consider itself liable. Based on this analysis, the Company has recorded an unrecognized tax liability.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of the unrecognized tax liability is as follows:

 

     Year Ended December 31,  
     2011      2010     2009  

Balance as of January 1

   $ 230,000      $ 290,000     $ 249,000

   $ 322,000      $ 230,000     $ 290,000  
  

 

 

    

 

 

   

 

 

 

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the unrecognized tax liability of $322,000 and $230,000, respectively, is comprised of $160,000 and $101,000, respectively, included in accrued liabilities, and $162,000 and $129,000, respectively, included in the valuation allowance for deferred taxes, since the items comprising this amount are included in deferred tax assets. Therefore, $160,000 and $101,000, respectively, of the unrecognized tax liability would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The entire amount of the unrecognized tax liability as of December 31, 2009 would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. Consistent with its current policy, the Company will include any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

NOTE 12—RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company paid $501,000, $647,000 and $402,000, respectively, to a law firm of which one of the directors of the Company is a member.

John Aglialoro, Joan Carter, and UM Holdings Ltd. (“UM”) are related parties which collectively own approximately 49.5% of the Company’s common shares.

Mr. Aglialoro has served as Chief Executive Officer of the Company since November 2000. He received salaries of $550,000, $535,000 and $518,000 for 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

UM provides certain office support services for which the Company reimbursed UM at the rate of $145,000 per year during 2011, 2010, and 2009. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company owed UM $13,000 for services.

NOTE 13—GUARANTEES

The Company arranges equipment leases and other financings for its customers. While most of these financings are without recourse, in certain cases the Company may offer a guarantee or other recourse provisions. In such situations, the Company ensures that the transaction between the independent leasing company and the end user customer represents a sales-type lease. The Company monitors the payment status of the lessee under these arrangements and provides a contingency reserve in situations when collection of the lease payments is not probable. At December 31, 2011, the maximum contingent liability under all recourse and guarantee provisions was $3,638,000. A reserve for estimated losses under recourse provisions of $203,000 and $818,000 has been recorded based on historical experience and is included in accrued liabilities at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company as guarantor will recognize, at the inception of certain guarantees, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing such guarantees. The Company has recorded a net liability of $27,000 and $47,000 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, for the estimated fair value of the Company’s guarantees. The fair value of the guarantees is determined based on the estimated cost for a customer to obtain a letter of credit from a bank or similar institution. This liability is reduced on a straight-line basis over the term of each respective guarantee. In most cases, if the Company is required to fulfill its obligations under the guarantee, it has the right to repossess the equipment from the customer. It is not practicable to estimate the approximate amount of proceeds that would be generated from the sale of these assets in such situations.

Rent expense under all operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $632,000, $630,000 and $582,000, respectively. Interest expense related to capital leases was $3,000, $3,000 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. Assets subject to capital leases had a cost of $27,000 and accumulated depreciation of $13,000 at December 31, 2011.

Purchase Obligations

The Company is required to make purchases of goods and services, principally for purchase order obligations, an endorsement agreement and capital expenditures, that are legally binding of $19,024,000 in 2012, $5,008,000 in 2013, $600,000 in 2014 and zero in 2015.

Product Liability

As a manufacturer of fitness products, the Company is inherently subject to the hazards and uncertainties of product liability litigation. The Company has maintained, and expects to continue to maintain, product liability insurance, and it includes reserves for self insured retention in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s product liability insurance, which is on a claims made basis, provides an aggregate of $25,000,000 of annual coverage for claims made on or after December 1, 2011, $10,000,000 of annual coverage for claims made on or after December 1, 2008 and before December 1, 2011, and $5,000,000 of annual coverage for claims made prior to December 1, 2008. The amount of coverage for a claim is reduced as payments are made under the policy for that policy year. These policies include a deductible of a $250,000 per claim ($100,000 for claims between December 1, 2007 and December 1, 2008), with an annual aggregate deductible of $1,000,000 on claims made on or after December 1, 2008 and $750,000 on claims made prior to December 1, 2008.

While the Company believes that its insurance coverage is adequate in light of the risks of product liability claims and awards, the Company may be subject to product liability claims which assert damages materially in

excess of the limits of its insurance coverage. In December 2010, a significant jury verdict was rendered in a product liability suit. This matter was settled in 2012 for an amount substantially in excess of our available insurance coverage.

The Company records a reserve for the self insured retention portion of product liability matters for which it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the range of the loss can be determined. In addition, as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company recorded a $27,004,000 and $62,696,000 litigation reserve, respectively, as a current liability pertaining to the Barnhard jury verdict and settlement, and a corresponding litigation related receivable for $7,561,000 and $15,904,000, respectively, representing the amount recoverable from the third party defendant in the matter and the estimated amount recoverable under the Company’s insurance policies. The Company records a reserve and a corresponding insurance receivable if the amount of the product liability exposure is recoverable from the Company’s insurance carrier for other product liability claims. Excluding the Barnhard matter, the product liability claims accrual is included as a component of accrued liabilities ($1,934,000 and $1,869,000 at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively) and other long-term liabilities ($859,000 and $947,000 at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively) and the insurance recoverable is included as a component of other assets ($859,000 and $947,000 at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively). On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews and adjusts each product liability claim and corresponding receivable.

Litigation

Barnhard v. Cybex International, Inc., et al.

This product liability litigation was commenced in 2005 in the Supreme Court, Eighth District, State of New York. The plaintiff, who was rendered a quadriplegic after she pulled a Cybex weight machine over onto herself, asserted that Cybex was at fault for the accident due to the design of the machine and a failure to warn. On December 7, 2010, the jury returned a $66 million verdict, apportioned 75% to Cybex, 20% to third party defendant Amherst Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C. and 5% to the plaintiff.

In January 2011, the Company filed post-trial motions, seeking, alternatively, judgment in its favor as a matter of law, a new trial and a reduction of the verdict. In February 2011, the trial court denied these motions, and the Company thereafter filed an appeal from this post-trial order with the Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department. In April 2011, a judgment was entered for $63,075,000 against Cybex. Under New York law, Cybex was responsible for payment of the judgment but could seek reimbursement from the third party defendant of approximately 21% of its payments on the judgment. The Company filed an appeal of the judgment with the Appellate Division. In May 2011, the Appellate Division granted the Company’s motion for a stay of enforcement of the Barnhard judgment during the pendency of the Company’s appeals, subject to the posting of $10,000,000 of collateral. In November 2011, the Appellate Division rendered a decision in the Company’s appeals, reducing the judgment by approximately 31%, to approximately $44 million, and otherwise affirming the judgment.

In February 2012, the parties entered into a settlement agreement. Pursuant to this settlement, Cybex paid to the plaintiff approximately $18,500,000 and agreed to pay an additional sum of approximately $1,000,000 over seven years, the parties provided cross-releases of all claims and the litigation will be dismissed with prejudice.

United Leasing, Inc. v. Cybex International, Inc., et al.

The Company on February 25, 2009 was served with an Amended Complaint which added the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cybex Capital Corp. (collectively with the Company referred to herein as Cybex), as additional defendants in this action originally venued in the Circuit Court for Williamson County, State of Tennessee. The plaintiff, United Leasing, Inc., provided a series of lease financings for the sale of Cybex equipment to a purchaser/lessee which has since entered bankruptcy, many of which sales were made by an independent dealer, also a defendant in the action. The plaintiff alleged that it was induced to finance in excess of the purchase price for certain of the equipment based primarily upon alleged rebates to the purchaser/lessee made by the independent dealer. Cybex Capital assisted in the lease financing and the plaintiff asserted that Cybex participated in the alleged scheme and was liable for any resulting damages. During March 2009, this action was removed to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee.

In January 2011, the parties entered into a settlement agreement. Pursuant to this settlement, Cybex paid to the plaintiff the sum of $938,000, the parties provided cross-releases of all claims and the litigation has been dismissed with prejudice.

The Company is involved in certain other legal actions, contingencies and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these other matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Legal fees related to those matters are charged to expense as incurred.

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into employment agreements with its named executive officers. Under these agreements, the employment may be terminated with or without cause at any time. In the event that the Company terminates the officer’s employment other than “for cause” the Company is obligated to continue normal salary payments for periods generally varying from six months to two years. The employment agreements generally provide that upon a change of control, as defined, the officer may in certain events resign and receive the severance which would have been payable upon a non-cause termination. The maximum aggregate exposure under these agreements was $2,340,000 as of December 31, 2011.

NOTE 15—BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has a 401(k) defined contribution retirement plan. The Company for a portion of 2011 matched 50% of the first 3% of the employee’s eligible compensation contributions and for a portion of 2009 matched 50% of the first 4% of the employee’s eligible compensation contributions. Matching contributions by the Company to the plan were $66,000, $0, and $57,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively. Effective March 1, 2009, the Company elected to suspend the Company match and on October 1, 2011 reinstated the match. Additionally, the Company may make discretionary contributions to the plan. No discretionary contributions were made for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 or 2009.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) in its periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of Cybex International, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting of the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management evaluated the internal control over financial reporting of the Company as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (COSO). As a result of this assessment and based on the criteria in the COSO framework, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
