NOTES TO INTERIM

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(1)                   Basis of Presentation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of UFP Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) presented herein, have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods.

 

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.

 

The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

 

(2)                   Supplemental Cash Flow Information

 

Cash paid for interest and income taxes is as follows:

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, the Company permitted the exercise of stock options with exercise proceeds paid with the Company’s stock (“cashless” exercises) totaling $125,799 and $93,879, respectively.

 

(3)                   Investment in Affiliated Partnership

 

In prior periods the Company had a 26.32% ownership interest in a realty limited partnership, United Development Company Limited (“UDT”).  The Company had consolidated the financial statements of UDT for prior periods because it determined that UDT was a VIE.  On February 29, 2012, the Company purchased the manufacturing building that it leased from UDT for $1,350,000, which approximates fair market value.  Since this transaction took place among commonly controlled companies, the building was recorded by the Company at UDT’s carrying value.  Thus, in effect, the Company has acquired the remaining 73.68% ownership interest in UDT, eliminating the VIE.  Subsequently, UDT was dissolved and its assets were distributed.  The non-controlling interests’ portion of the excess of the amount paid for the building over UDT’s carrying value, totaling $521,972, has been recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.  The transaction did not impact the consolidated results of operations.

Current and long-term debt

 

 

 

(4)                   Fair Value Accounting

 

The Company has other financial instruments, such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, which are stated at carrying amounts that approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.  The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt approximates fair value as the interest rate on the debt approximates the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate.

 

(5)                   Share-Based Compensation

 

Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).

 

The Company issues share-based payments through several plans that are described in detail in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The compensation cost charged against income for those plans is as follows:

The total income tax benefit recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income for share-based compensation arrangements was approximately $55,000 and $71,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively, and approximately $227,000 and $272,000 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

Table of Contents

 

On June 14, 2012, the Company granted to its directors options for the purchase of 7,770 shares of its common stock at that day’s closing price of $16.32.  The compensation expense was determined as the intrinsic fair market value of the options using the Black Scholes option pricing model based on the following assumptions:

 

Expected volatility

 

56%

Expected dividends

 

none

Risk free interest rate

 

0.39%

Expected term

 

5 years

 

The stock volatility for each grant is determined based on a review of the experience of the weighted average of historical daily price changes of the Company’s common stock over the expected option term, and the risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected life of the option. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, was $7.72.

 

In prior years, the Company used a lattice-based model to determine fair value.

 

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, the total intrinsic value of all options exercised (i.e., the difference between the market price on the exercise date and the price paid by the employees to exercise the options) was $2,028,138 and $2,183,912, respectively, and the total amount of consideration received from the exercised options was $491,036 and $327,942, respectively.

 

During the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, the Company recognized compensation expenses related to stock options granted to directors and employees of $18,186 and $19,440, respectively.  During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, the Company recognized compensation expenses related to stock options granted to directors and employees of $115,809 and $124,189, respectively.

 

On February 17, 2012, the Company’s Compensation Committee approved the award of $300,000 payable in shares of common stock to the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President under the 2003 Incentive Plan.  The shares will be issued on or before December 31, 2012.  The Company has recorded compensation expense associated with the award of $75,000 and $225,000 during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012.  During the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011, $106,251 and $318,753 of compensation expense was recognized for a similar award.

(7)                   Preferred Stock

 

On March 18, 2009, the Company declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, to the stockholders of record on March 20, 2009.  Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Share”) of the Company, at a price of $25 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share subject to adjustment and the terms of the Rights Agreement.  The Rights expire on March 19, 2019.

 

(8)                   Income Per Share

 

Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted income per share is based upon the weighted average of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during each period.

 

The weighted average number of shares used to compute basic and diluted net income per share consisted of the following:

The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock awards, including stock options, when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the related options during the period. These outstanding stock awards are not included in the computation of diluted income per share because the effect would have been antidilutive.  For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, the number of stock awards excluded from the computation was 10,000 and 17,700, respectively.  For the same three- and nine-month periods in 2011, the number of stock awards excluded from the computation was zero.

 

(9)                   Segment Reporting

 

The Company is organized based on the nature of the products and services it offers.  Under this structure, the Company produces products within two distinct segments: Engineered Packaging and Component Products.  Within the Engineered Packaging segment, the Company primarily uses polyethylene and polyurethane foams, sheet plastics, and pulp fiber to provide customers with cushion packaging for their products.  Within the Component Products segment, the Company primarily uses cross-linked polyethylene and technical urethane foams to provide customers in the medical, aerospace and defense, automotive, athletic, and leisure industries with custom-designed products for numerous purposes.

(10)              Plant Consolidation

 

On September 18, 2012, the Company committed to move forward with a plan to close its Ventura (California) facility, and consolidate operations into its Rancho Dominguez, California, and El Paso, Texas, facilities.  The Company expects to incur restructuring charges of approximately $325,000 in one-time, pre-tax expenses and to invest approximately $150,000 in building improvements, principally in the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

Through the period ended September 30, 2012, the Company has not incurred any expenses.

 

(11)              Subsequent Event

 

On October 11, 2012, the Company entered a loan agreement with US Bank Equipment Finance to finance the purchase of two new molded fiber machines.  One of the machines is operational and the other will be installed in the fourth quarter.  The value of the loan is approximately $5.0 million and will be funded in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Overview

 

UFP Technologies is a producer of innovative custom-engineered components, products, and specialty packaging. The Company serves a myriad of markets, but specifically targets opportunities in the medical, automotive, aerospace & defense, electronics, consumer, and industrial markets.

 

In the first nine months of 2012, the Company experienced organic sales growth of 2%, reflecting increased demand from most end-use markets. The increase in sales from these markets was substantially offset by a decrease in sales to the automotive market primarily due to the phase-out of a significant portion of the Company’s large door panel program in the Southeast.  Excluding the door panel program sales from our results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, our revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, grew 6.3%.

 

In prior periods the Company had a 26.32% ownership interest in a realty limited partnership, United Development Company Limited (“UDT”).  The Company had consolidated the financial statements of UDT for prior periods because it determined that UDT was a VIE.  On February 29, 2012, the Company purchased the manufacturing building that it leased from UDT for $1,350,000, which management believes approximates fair market value.  Since this transaction took place among commonly controlled companies, the building was recorded by the Company at UDT’s carrying value.  Thus, in effect, the Company has acquired the remaining 73.68% ownership interest in UDT, eliminating the VIE.  Subsequently, UDT was dissolved and its assets were distributed.  The non-controlling interests’ portion of the excess of the amount paid for the building over UDT’s carrying value, totaling $521,972, has been

recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.  The transaction did not impact the consolidated results of operations.

 

Due to a redesigned model vehicle, a substantial portion of a large automotive door panel program ended on June 30, 2011, although the Company is still supplying door panels to the customer for other model vehicles.  Sales of door panels for the discontinued model vehicle were approximately $2.15 million and $4.0 million, respectively, in the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011.

 

The Company’s current strategy includes organic growth and growth through strategic acquisitions.

 

Sales

 

Sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, increased approximately 4% to $32.0 million from sales of $30.8 million for the same period in 2011.  Sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, increased approximately 2% to $97.6 million from sales of $95.8 million for the same period in 2011. The increase in sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to increased sales to the medical industry of approximately $556,000 (Component Products segment) as well as an increase in sales of molded fiber packaging of approximately $460,000 (Packaging segment).  The increase in sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to increased sales to the medical industry of approximately $1.7 million (Component Products segment) as well as an increase in sales of molded fiber packaging of approximately $2.0 million (Packaging segment), partially offset by a decrease in sales to the automotive industry of approximately $2.0 million.  The decline in sales to the automotive industry for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, is due to the phase-out of a significant portion of the Company’s large door panel program in the Southeast.  Excluding the door panel program sales from our results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, our revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, grew 6.3%.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit as a percentage of sales (“gross margin”) increased to 28.9% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, from 27.6% in the same period in 2011.  Gross margin increased to 28.8% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, from 28.5% in the same period in 2011.  The increase in gross margin for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to an improved mix of business (material and labor collectively declined 1.0% as a percentage of sales) as well as a slight decline in fixed overhead as a percentage of sales due to organic sales growth.   In addition, gross margin for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, improved from the efficiencies gained by the closure in 2011 of the Company’s plant in Alabama and the absence of related moving costs in the current period (operating income in the Company’s Packaging segment increased approximately $520,000 during the current period compared to the same period in 2011).  The increase in gross margin for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to improved mix of business (material and labor collectively declined 0.7% as a percentage of sales) partially offset by slightly higher fixed components of cost of sales as a percentage of sales.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased approximately $64,000 or 1.2% to $5.16 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, from $5.22 million for the same period in 2011.  SG&A decreased approximately $562,000 or 3.5% to $16.1 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, from $16.6 million for the same period in 2011.  The slight decrease in SG&A for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to a decrease in professional fees of approximately $80,000 and $420,000, respectively, due to prior year initiatives as well as the timing of recurring services.

 

As a percentage of sales, SG&A decreased to 16.1% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, from 17.0% for the same three-month period in 2011.  As a percentage of sales, SG&A decreased to 16.5% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, from 17.4% for the same nine-month period in 2011.  The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of sales for both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to the reduction in general and administrative expenses against increased sales.

 

Gain on Sale of Fixed Assets

 

The gain on sale of fixed assets of approximately $834,000 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, was derived primarily from the sale of real estate in Alabama by UDT.  Of this $834,000 gain, approximately $428,000 relates to non-controlling interests that have been deducted to determine net income attributable to UFP Technologies, Inc.

Other Expenses

 

The Company had net interest expense of approximately $14,000 and $6,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The Company had net interest expense of approximately $43,000 and $19,000 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively.  The increase in interest expense for both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to lower interest earned on cash.

 

The Company recorded a tax expense of approximately 36% of income before income tax expense for the both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, compared to a tax expense of approximately 25% and 32% (excluding income attributable to non-controlling interests) for the comparable three- and nine-month periods in 2011.  The increase in the effective income tax rate for both the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to the reversal during the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, of approximately $385,000 in reserves previously established for uncertain tax benefits due to a favorable outcome on a concluded Federal Internal Revenue Service audit and the statute of limitations expiring on certain other federal income tax filings.  The non-controlling interest in UDT was not subject to corporate income tax.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company funds its operating expenses, capital requirements, and growth plan through internally generated cash and bank credit facilities.

 

At September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, the Company’s working capital was approximately $49.9 million and $48.6 million, respectively.  The increase in working capital for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, is primarily due to an increase in cash of approximately $1.3 million due to strong earnings and an increase in receivables, net of approximately $1.3 million due to strong September 2012 sales.

 

Net cash provided by operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, was approximately $10.8 million primarily due to net income from consolidated operations of approximately $7.7 million and depreciation and amortization of approximately $2.1 million, partially offset by an increase in receivables, net of approximately $1.3 million due to strong September sales.

 

Cash used in investing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, was approximately $7.9 million and was primarily the result of additions of manufacturing machinery and equipment and software.  Included in the additions to manufacturing machinery and equipment was approximately $4.0 million in progress payments associated with molded fiber machinery.

 

Cash used in financing activities was approximately $1.6 million in both the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011.  The cash used in financing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, is due primarily to a distribution to the non-controlling interests of UDT of approximately $1.2 million due to the Company’s purchase of the Florida real estate from UDT and subsequent dissolution of UDT.

 

On January 29, 2009, the Company amended and extended its credit facility with Bank of America, NA.  The facility comprises: (i) a revolving credit facility of $17 million; (ii) a term loan of $2.1 million with a seven-year straight line amortization; (iii) a term loan of $1.8 million with a 20-year straight line amortization; and (iv) a term loan of $4.0 million with a 20-year straight line amortization.  Extensions of credit under the revolving credit facility are based in part upon accounts receivable and inventory levels.  Therefore, the entire $17 million may not be available to the Company.  At September 30, 2012, the Company had availability of approximately $16.9 million, based upon collateral levels as of that date.  The credit facility calls for interest of LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.0% to 1.5% or, at the option of the Company, the bank’s prime rate less a margin that ranges from 0.25% to zero.  In both cases the applicable margin is dependent upon Company performance.  The loans are collateralized by a first priority lien on all of the Company’s assets, including its real estate located in Georgetown, Massachusetts, and in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  Under the credit facility, the Company is subject to a minimum fixed charge coverage financial covenant with which it was in compliance at September 30, 2012.  The Company’s $17 million revolving credit facility matures November 30, 2013; the term loans are all due on January 29, 2016.  The interest rate on these facilities was approximately 1.2% at September 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

 

On October 11, 2012, the Company entered a loan agreement with US Bank Equipment Finance to finance the purchase of two new molded fiber machines.  One of the machines is operational and the other will be installed in the fourth quarter.  The value of the loan is approximately $5.0 million and will be funded in the fourth quarter of 2012.

 

Through the end of 2012 and into 2013, the Company plans to continue to add  capacity to enhance operating efficiencies in its manufacturing plants.  The Company may consider additional acquisitions of companies, technologies, or products that are complementary to its business.  The Company believes that its existing resources, including its revolving credit facility, together with cash generated from operations and funds expected to be available to it through any necessary equipment financing and additional bank borrowings, will be sufficient to fund its cash flow requirements, including capital asset acquisitions, through the next twelve months.

The Company requires cash to pay its operating expenses, purchase capital equipment, and to service the obligations listed above.  The Company’s principal sources of funds are its operations and its revolving credit facility.  Although the Company generated cash from operations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, it cannot guarantee that its operations will generate cash in future periods.

 

The Company had no off balance sheet arrangements during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, other than operating leases.

 

ITEM 3:                                   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The following discussion of the Company’s market risk includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.  Market risk represents the risk of changes in value of a financial instrument caused by fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices.  At September 30, 2012, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of bank accounts in U.S. dollars, and their valuation would not be affected by market risk.  The Company has several debt instruments where interest is based upon either the prime rate or LIBOR and, therefore, future operations could be affected by interest rate changes.  However, the Company believes that the market risk of the debt is minimal.
