We intend the forward-looking statements throughout this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the information incorporated by reference herein to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements. Statements contained in this report which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. All projections, guidance and other statements regarding our expected financial position and operating results, our business strategy, our financing plans and the outcome of any contingencies are forward-looking statements. These statements can sometimes be identified by our use of forward-looking words such as may, believe, plan, anticipate, estimate, expect, intend, and other phrases of similar meaning. The forward-looking information is based on information available as of the date of this quarterly report and on numerous assumptions and developments that are not within our control. Although we believe that our expectations as expressed in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that our expectations will turn out to be correct. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following: changes in global economic conditions; the ability to obtain new contracts at attractive prices; the size and timing of customer orders and shipment; our ability to realize sales from our backlog; fluctuations in customer demand; fluctuations in foreign currencies; competitive factors; the timely completion of contracts; the timing and size of expenditures; the timely receipt of government approvals and permits; the price and availability of metal and other raw material; the adequacy of local labor supplies at our facilities; current or future limits on manufacturing capacity at our various operations; our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses; the availability and cost of funds; and general economic conditions, both domestic and foreign, impacting our business and the business of the end-market users we serve. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect managements analysis only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

DYNAMIC MATERIALS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Currency Amounts in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The information included in the condensed consolidated financial statements is unaudited but includes all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements that are included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dynamic Materials Corporation (DMC) and its controlled subsidiaries. Only subsidiaries in which controlling interests are maintained are consolidated. The equity method is used to account for our ownership in subsidiaries where we do not have a controlling interest. All significant intercompany accounts, profits, and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for each of the periods reported differs from the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to favorable foreign permanent differences, variation in contribution to consolidated pre-tax income from each jurisdiction for the respective periods and differences between the U.S. and foreign tax rates (which range from 19% to 33%) on earnings that have been permanently reinvested.
Earnings Per Share
Unvested awards of share-based payments with rights to receive dividends or dividend equivalents, such as our restricted stock awards (RSAs), are considered participating securities for purposes of calculating earnings per share (EPS) and require the use of the two class method for calculating EPS. Under this method, a portion of net income is allocated to these participating securities and therefore is excluded from the calculation of EPS allocated to common stock, as shown in the table below.
Computation and reconciliation of earnings per common share are as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standard which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendment is to be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Other than revised disclosures, this update did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
3. ACQUISITIONS
TRX Industries
On January 3, 2012, we acquired the assets and operating business of Texas-based TRX Industries, Inc. (TRX), a manufacturer of perforating guns, for a purchase price of $10,294. TRX, which now operates as a division of DYNAenrgetics US, has been a long-term supplier to DYNAenergetics US and, in recent years, accounted for a rapidly growing percentage of its perforating gun purchases.
The acquisition of TRX was structured as an asset purchase in an all-cash transaction. The purchase price was allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their fair values as determined by appraisals performed as of the acquisition date. The allocation of the preliminary purchase price to the assets of TRX was as follows:

We acquired identifiable finite-lived intangible assets as a result of the acquisition of TRX. The finite-lived intangible assets acquired were classified as customer relationships, were valued at $5,365, and are being amortized over 7 years. These amounts are included in Purchased Intangible Assets and are further discussed in Note 6.

9. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
Our business is organized in the following three segments: Explosive Metalworking, Oilfield Products, and AMK Welding. The Explosive Metalworking segment uses explosives to perform metal cladding and shock synthesis of industrial diamonds. The most significant product of this group is clad metal which is used in the fabrication of pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and transition joints for various industries, including upstream oil and gas, oil refinery, petrochemicals, hydrometallurgy, aluminum production, shipbuilding, power generation, industrial refrigeration, and similar industries. The Oilfield Products segment manufactures, markets and sells oilfield perforating equipment and explosives, including detonating cords, detonators, bi-directional boosters and shaped charges, and seismic related explosives and accessories. AMK Welding utilizes a number of welding technologies to weld components for manufacturers of jet engine and ground-based turbines.
The accounting policies of all the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies included herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Our reportable segments are separately managed strategic business units that offer different products and services. Each segments products are marketed to different customer types and require different manufacturing processes and technologies.

ITEM 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and notes, as well as the selected historical consolidated financial data that are included in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Unless stated otherwise, all currency amounts in this discussion are presented in thousands (000s).
Executive Overview
Our business is organized into three segments: Explosive Metalworking (which we also refer to as DMC Clad), Oilfield Products and AMK Welding. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, Explosive Metalworking accounted for 55% of our net sales and 68% of our income from operations before consideration of unallocated corporate expenses and stock-based compensation expense, which are not allocated to our business segments. Our Oilfield Products and segment accounted for 42% and of 34% of our first quarter 2012 net sales and income from operations, respectively, while the AMK Welding segment accounted for 3% of net sales and reported a small operating loss in the first quarter of 2012.
Our net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased by $4,638, or 10.2%, compared to the same period of 2011. The year-to-year consolidated net sales increase reflects sales increases of $1,459 (5.6%) for our Explosive Metalworking segment and $3,918 (23.0%) for our Oilfield Products segment, which were partially offset by an AMK Welding sales decrease of $739 (30.2%). Largely as a result of an improvement in our consolidated first quarter gross margin rate to 28.6% in 2012 from 22.6% in 2011, our consolidated income from operations increased to $4,138 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $1,496 in the same period of 2011. This $2,642 increase reflects increases of $2,545 and $1,122 in the operating income reported by our Explosive Metalworking and Oilfield Products segments, respectively, which were partially offset by a decrease in AMK Weldings operating income of $555 and a net increase in aggregate unallocated corporate expenses and stock-based compensation expense of $470. Reported consolidated operating income for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 includes amortization expense of $1,544 and $1,405, respectively, relating to purchased intangible assets associated with several acquisitions executed between November of 2007 and January of 2012. We reported net income of $2,428 for the first quarter 2012 compared to $750 for the same period of 2011.
Impact of Current Economic Situation on the Company
We were only minimally impacted in 2008 by the global economic slowdown. However, during 2009 and 2010, we experienced a significant slowdown in Explosive Metalworking sales to some of the markets we serve. The explosion-welded clad plate market is dependent upon sales of products for use by customers in a number of heavy industries, including oil and gas, chemicals and petrochemicals, aluminum production, power generation, shipbuilding, industrial refrigeration, alternative energy and hydrometallurgy. These industries tend to be cyclical in nature and the current worldwide economic downturn has affected many of these markets. While certain sectors continue to be slow, including alternative energy, hydrometallurgy and power generation, quoting activity in other end markets remains healthy, and we continue to track an extensive list of projects. While timing of new order inflow remains difficult to predict, our Explosive Metalworking segment benefited from the modest improvement in 2011 of some of the industries it supplies and we believe that it is well-positioned to further benefit as global economic conditions improve.
As a result of acquisitions made during 2009 and 2010 and strong organic sales growth beginning in the third quarter of 2010, our Oilfield Products segment has grown into a second core business for us, generating 35% of our consolidated net sales in 2011 as compared to only 13% of our consolidated net sales in 2009. We believe the economic environment for this business segment remains positive and we expect to see continued organic sales growth in this segment during 2012 as well as the benefit of incremental sales from the January 3, 2012 acquisition of TRX Industries.
Our Explosive Metalworking backlog increased from $44,564 at December 31, 2011 to $57,253 at March 31, 2012. Despite this 28% increase in backlog, the timing of shipments from the March 31 backlog is such that we expect second quarter 2012 Explosive Metalworking sales to be flat to down 10% from the $27,533 in sales that this segment reported in the first quarter. However, as a result of the March 31 backlog increase and the continued strength in quoting activity, we expect full year 2012 Explosive Metalworking net sales to be flat to up slightly from the $126,199 in net sales that this segment reported in 2011. Based upon the March 31, 2012 Explosive Metalworking backlog, recent strong quoting activity for this segment and positive sales trends in our Oilfield Products business segment, we continue to believe that our 2012 consolidated net sales could increase by 7% to 10% from the $208,891 in consolidated net sales that we reported in 2011.
Net sales
Explosive Metalworkings revenues are generated principally from sales of clad metal plates and sales of transition joints, which are made from clad plates, to customers that fabricate industrial equipment for various industries, including oil and gas, petrochemicals, alternative energy, hydrometallurgy, aluminum production, shipbuilding, power generation, industrial refrigeration, and similar industries. While a large portion of the demand for our clad metal products is driven by new plant construction and large plant expansion projects, maintenance and retrofit projects at existing chemical processing, petrochemical processing, oil refining, and aluminum smelting facilities also account for a significant portion of total demand.
Oilfield Products revenues are generated principally from sales of shaped charges, detonators and detonating cord, and bidirectional boosters and perforating guns to customers who perform the perforation of oil and gas wells and from sales of seismic products to customers involved in oil and gas exploration activities.
AMK Weldings revenues are generated from welding, heat treatment, and inspection services that are provided with respect to customer-supplied parts for customers primarily involved in the power generation industry and aircraft engine markets.
A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a relatively small number of customers; therefore, the failure to complete existing contracts on a timely basis, to receive payment for such services in a timely manner, or to enter into future contracts at projected volumes and profitability levels could adversely affect our ability to meet cash requirements exclusively through operating activities. We attempt to minimize the risk of losing customers or specific contracts by continually improving product quality, delivering product on time and competing aggressively on the basis of price.
Gross profit and cost of products sold
Cost of products sold for Explosive Metalworking includes the cost of metals and alloys used to manufacture clad metal plates, the cost of explosives, employee compensation and benefits, freight, outside processing costs, depreciation of manufacturing facilities and equipment, manufacturing supplies and other manufacturing overhead expenses.
Cost of products sold for Oilfield Products includes the cost of metals, explosives and other raw materials used to manufacture shaped charges, detonating products and perforating guns as well as employee compensation and benefits, depreciation of manufacturing facilities and equipment, manufacturing supplies and other manufacturing overhead expenses.
AMK Weldings cost of products sold consists principally of employee compensation and benefits, welding supplies (wire and gas), depreciation of manufacturing facilities and equipment, outside services and other manufacturing overhead expenses.
Backlog
We use backlog as a primary means of measuring the immediate outlook for our Explosive Metalworking business. We define backlog at any given point in time as consisting of all firm, unfulfilled purchase orders and commitments at that time. Generally speaking, we expect to fill most backlog orders within the following 12 months. From experience, most firm purchase orders and commitments are realized.
Our backlog with respect to the Explosive Metalworking segment increased to $57,253 at March 31, 2012 from $44,564 at December 31, 2011.

Net sales for the first quarter of 2012 increased 10.2% to $50,212 from $45,574 for the first quarter of 2011. Explosive Metalworking sales increased 5.6% to $27,533 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 (55% of total sales) from $26,074 for the same period of 2011 (57% of total sales). This modest $1,459 increase in first quarter sales relates to timing of shipments from beginning of year backlog and reflects a positive result considering that our Explosive Metalworking backlog decreased from $56,539 at December 31, 2010 to $44,564 at December 31, 2011.
Oilfield Products contributed $20,974 to first quarter 2012 sales (42% of total sales), which represents a 23% increase from sales of $17,056 for the first quarter of 2011 (37% of total sales). This sales increase reflects incremental sales of $2,011 from the January 3, 2012 acquisition of TRX Industries and continued strong demand for our perforating products, particularly in North America, resulting from an increase in drilling activities, including the rapidly expanding use of new horizontal drilling techniques, and the re-perforation of existing oil and gas wells.
AMK Welding contributed $1,705 to first quarter 2012 sales (3% of total sales), compared to sales of $2,444 for the first quarter of 2011 (5% of total sales), a sales decrease of $739 or 30.2%. This decrease reflects a $920, or 48.7%, decline in ground power sales that is attributable to a customers decision to discontinue new production work on a ground turbine platform that has accounted for a major portion of AMKs historical ground power revenues. We believe that AMK can replace this lost revenue stream over time by developing new business opportunities with both existing and new customers in the aircraft engine, ground turbine, and oil and gas industries.

Gross profit increased by 39.6% to $14,377 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $10,302 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Our first quarter 2012 consolidated gross profit margin rate increased to 28.6% from the 22.6% gross margin that we reported for the first quarter of 2011.
The gross profit margin for Explosive Metalworking increased from 17.2% in the first quarter of 2011 to 26.2% in the first quarter of 2012, an increase of 52.5%. This significant improvement in the first quarter 2012 gross profit margin rate relates to favorable changes in product mix as compared to the first quarter of 2011 combined with an improved pricing environment. The extremely competitive pricing environment that existed during the last part of 2010 negatively impacted the gross margin that our Explosive Metalworking segment realized on orders shipped during the first quarter of 2011. As has been the case historically, we expect to see continued fluctuations in Explosive Metalworkings quarterly gross margin rates in the future that result from fluctuations in quarterly sales volume and changes in product mix.
Oilfield Products reported a gross profit margin of 33.5% in the first quarter of 2012 compared to a gross profit margin of 30.2% in the first quarter of 2011. The increase in Oilfield Products gross margin for the first quarter relates principally to favorable changes in product/customer mix.
The gross profit margin for AMK Welding decreased to 11.3% in the first quarter of 2012 from 29.7% in the first quarter of 2011. Since the majority of AMKs manufacturing costs are fixed in nature, the $739 decrease in first quarter sales had a significant, depressing effect on the first quarter 2012 gross margin. AMK Weldings sales and gross margin are expected to show gradual improvement during the remaining quarters of 2012.
Based upon the expected contribution to 2012 consolidated net sales by each of our three business segments, we expect our consolidated full year 2012 gross margin to be in a range of 29% to 30%.

General and administrative expenses increased by $830 or 22.6%, to $4,505 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $3,675 for the same period of 2011. This increase includes increases of $451 and $91 in salaries and accrued incentive compensation, respectively, an increase in outside professional service fees of $169, an increase of $166 in stock-based compensation, and a net decrease of $47 in all other expense categories. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 9.0% in the first quarter of 2012 from 8.1% in the first quarter of 2011.

Our selling and distribution expenses, which include sales commissions of $518 in the first quarter of 2012 and $593 in the first quarter of 2011, increased by 12.5% to $4,190 in the first quarter of 2012 from $3,726 in the first quarter of 2011. The increase in our selling and distribution expenses includes increased selling and distribution expenses of $140 at our U.S. divisions and $324 at our foreign divisions.
The $140 increase in our U.S. selling and distribution expenses reflects an increase of $ $139 in salaries and accrued incentive compensation. The $324 increase in our foreign divisions selling and distribution expenses reflects an increase of $161 in salary expense and a net increase of $163 in all other spending categories. As a percentage of net sales, selling and distribution expenses increased slightly to 8.3% in the first quarter of 2012 from 8.2% in the first quarter of 2011.
Our consolidated selling and distribution expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 include $1,560 and $2,446 for our Explosive Metalworking and Oilfield Products business segments, respectively. The higher level of selling and distribution expenses for our Oilfield Products segment relative to its contribution to our consolidated net sales reflects the need, particularly in North America, to maintain a number of strategically located distribution centers that are in close proximity to areas which contain a large concentration of oilfields and enjoy a high volume of related oil and gas drilling activities.

Amortization expense relates to the amortization of values assigned to intangible assets in connection with our acquisitions of DYNAenergetics, LRI, the two Russian joint ventures, Austin Explosives and our January 3, 2012 acquisition of TRX Industries. The $139 increase in first quarter 2012 amortization expenses reflects $192 in new amortization expense associated with the TRX acquisition that were partially offset by favorable foreign currency translation effects. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 includes $1,217, $280, and $47 relating to values assigned to customer relationships, core technology, and trademarks/trade names, respectively. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 includes $1,064, $292 and $49 relating to values assigned to customer relationships, core technology, and trademarks/trade names, respectively.
Amortization expense (as measured in Euros) associated with the DYNAenergetics acquisition and the acquisition of the two Russian joint ventures is expected to approximate 3,490 and 232, respectively, in 2012. Our 2012 amortization expense associated with the June 2010 Austin Explosives acquisition and the January 2012 acquisition of TRX Industries is expected to
approximate $435 and $765, respectively, and our 2012 amortization expense (as measured in Canadian dollars) associated with the LRI acquisition is expected to approximate 80 CAD.

Income from operations (operating income) increased by 176.6% to $4,138 in the first quarter of 2012 from $1,496 in the first quarter of 2011.
Explosive Metalworking reported operating income of $4,099 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $1,554 in the first quarter of 2011. This 163.8% increase is largely attributable to the 52.5% increase in the gross margin rate as discussed above. Operating results of Explosive Metalworking for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 include $523 and $546, respectively, of amortization expense of purchased intangible assets.
Oilfield Products reported operating income of $2,046 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $924 in the first quarter of 2011. The increase in first quarter operating income for our Oilfield Products segment is principally attributable to the sales increase of $3,918. Operating results of Oilfield Products for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 include $1,021 and $859, respectively, of amortization expense of purchased intangible assets.
AMK Welding reported an operating loss of $87 in the first quarter of 2012, a decrease of $555 from the $468 of operating income that it reported in the first quarter of 2011. The decline in AMKs operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is attributable to the $739 sales decline and resultant decrease in gross profit as discussed above.
Our consolidated operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 includes $951 and $658, respectively, of unallocated corporate expenses and $969 and $792, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense. These expenses are not allocated to our business segments and thus are not included in the above first quarter and year-to-date operating income totals for our Explosive Metalworking, Oilfield Products, and AMK Welding business segments.

We recorded net interest expense of $205 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to net interest expense of $407 in the first quarter of 2011. Since our average borrowings were approximately $10,000 higher in the first quarter of 2012 than in the prior year first quarter, the significant decrease in our first quarter 2012 interest expense is entirely attributable to lower average interest rates on our 2012 outstanding borrowings, including a 150 basis point interest rate reduction on revolving credit borrowings under our new five-year credit facility that we entered into on December 21, 2011.

We recorded an income tax provision of $1,342 in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $148 in the first quarter of 2011. The effective tax rate increased to 35.9% in the first quarter of 2012 from 16.7% in the first quarter of 2011 and 26.0% for the full year 2011. Our consolidated income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 included $788 and $476, respectively, related to U.S. taxes, with the remainder relating to a net foreign tax provision of $554 in 2012 and a net foreign tax benefit of $328 in 2011 associated with our foreign operations and holding companies.
Our statutory income tax rates range from 19% to 33% for our various U.S. and foreign operating subsidiaries and holding companies. In general, the fluctuations in our consolidated effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 relate principally to the different tax rates in our U.S. and foreign tax jurisdictions and the variation in contribution to consolidated pre-tax income from each jurisdiction for the respective periods and also reflect the impact of favorable permanent differences in our foreign taxes. However, the higher than expected effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2012 resulted from a local tax increase for a key German subsidiary which required us to increase our March 31, 2012 deferred tax liabilities by $256 and record a corresponding increase in our first quarter tax provision. The adjustment we recorded in connection with this local tax increase caused our effective tax rate for the first quarter to increase from 29.0% to 35.9%. We currently expect our blended effective tax rate for 2012 to range from 28% to 32% based on projected full year 2012 pre-tax income.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that we believe provides an important indicator of our ongoing operating performance. Our aggregate non-cash depreciation, amortization of purchased intangible assets and stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended
March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $3,880 and $3,553, respectively. These aggregate non-cash charges represent a significant percentage of the consolidated operating income that we reported for these periods. We use non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in our operational and financial decision-making and believe that these non-GAAP measures are a reliable indicator of our ability to generate cash flow from operations and facilitate a more meaningful comparison of the operating performance of our three business segments than do certain GAAP measures. Research analysts, investment bankers and lenders also use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess operating performance. The following is a reconciliation of the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBIDTA.

Adjusted EBITDA increased 59.2% to $8,055 in the first quarter of 2012 from $5,061 in the first quarter of 2011 primarily due to the $2,642 increase in first quarter 2012 operating income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have historically financed our operations from a combination of internally generated cash flow, revolving credit borrowings, various long-term debt arrangements, and the issuance of common stock. We believe that cash flow from operations and funds available under our current credit facilities and any future replacement thereof will be sufficient to fund the working capital, debt service, and capital expenditure requirements of our current business operations for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations will depend upon our success in executing our strategies. If we are unable to (i) realize sales from our backlog; (ii) secure new customer orders at attractive prices; and (iii) continue to implement cost-effective internal processes, our ability to meet cash requirements through operating activities could be impacted. Furthermore, any restriction on the availability of borrowings under our credit facilities could negatively affect our ability to meet future cash requirements.
Debt facilities
On December 21, 2011, we entered into a five-year syndicated credit agreement, which provides revolving loan availability of $36,000, 16,000 Euros and 1,500 Canadian Dollars through a syndicate of four banks, and amends and restates in its entirety our prior syndicated credit agreement entered into on November 16, 2007. Our prior syndicated credit agreement provided for revolving loan availability of $25,000 and 7,000 Euros, and also had a remaining balance of $13,247 outstanding under a $45,000 term loan. On the closing date of our amended and restated
new credit agreement, the remaining outstanding balance on our term loan was converted to a revolving credit loan.
There are two significant financial covenants under our syndicated credit agreement, the leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio requirements. The leverage ratio is defined in the credit agreement as Consolidated Funded Indebtedness at the balance sheet date as compared to Consolidated EBITDA, which is defined as earnings before provisions for income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, extraordinary, non-recurring charges and other non-cash charges, for the previous twelve months. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, Consolidated EBITDA approximated the Adjusted EBITDA that we reported for the respective periods. As of March 31, 2012, the maximum leverage ratio permitted by our credit facility was 2.25 to 1.0. The actual leverage ratio as of March 31, 2012 was 0.95 to 1.0. The maximum leverage ratio permitted as of June 30, September 30 and December 31, 2012 is also 2.25 to 1.0.
The fixed charge ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, means, for any period, the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to Fixed Charges. Consolidated EBITDA is defined above and Fixed Charges equals the sum of cash interest expense, cash dividends, cash income taxes and an amount equal to 75% of depreciation expense. As of March 31, 2012, the minimum fixed charge ratio permitted by our credit facility was 2.0 to 1.0. The actual fixed charge ratio as of March 31, 2012 was 2.77 to 1.0. The minimum fixed charge coverage ratio permitted for the twelve month periods ending June 30, September 30 and December 31, 2012 is 2.0 to 1.0.
As of March 31, 2012, U.S. dollar revolving loans of $26,000, Euro revolving loans of $7,736 and Canadian Dollar revolving loans of $1,504 were outstanding under our syndicated credit agreement, $1,315 was outstanding under our separate DYNAenergetics line of credit agreements, and $167 was outstanding under loan agreements with the former owners of LRI. While we had approximately $30,292 of unutilized revolving credit loan capacity as of March 31, 2012 under our various credit facilities, future borrowings are subject to compliance with financial covenants that could significantly limit availability.
Debt and other contractual obligations and commitments
Our existing loan agreements include various covenants and restrictions, certain of which relate to the payment of dividends or other distributions to stockholders, redemption of capital stock, incurrence of additional indebtedness, mortgaging, pledging or disposition of major assets, and maintenance of specified financial ratios. As of March 31, 2012, we were in compliance with all financial covenants and other provisions of our debt agreements.
Our principal cash flows related to debt obligations and other contractual obligations and commitments have not materially changed since December 31, 2011.
Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 totaled $6,733. Significant sources of operating cash flow included net income of $2,391, non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $2,946, stock-based compensation of $969, and net positive changes in working capital of $732. Operating cash flow for the first quarter of 2012 was reduced by a deferred income tax benefit of $305. Positive cash flows from changes in working capital included decreases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses of $1,337 and $112, respectively, and an increase in customer advances of $1,517. These were partly offset by a $363 increase in inventory and decreases in accounts payable of $1,359 and accrued expenses and other liabilities of $512. All of foregoing changes in working capital relate to typical fluctuations in our business flow and the related timing of cash payments and receipts.
Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the first quarter of 2011 totaled $1,317. Our first quarter 2011 operating cash flow reflects net income of $738 and the benefit of certain non-cash charges, including depreciation and amortization expense of $2,814 and stock-based compensation of $792. Operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2011 was reduced by a deferred income tax benefit of $586 and net negative changes in working capital of $2,441. Negative cash flows from changes in working capital included increases in inventories and prepaid expenses of $3,678, and $1,040, respectively. These were partly offset by increases in accounts payable, customer advances and accrued expenses and other liabilities of $1,460, $283 and $542, respectively. The increase in inventories relates to an increase in work-in-process inventories in our Explosive Metalworking segment to meet second quarter shipment requirements on a couple of larger orders included in our March 31, 2011 backlog and an increase in finished goods inventories in our Oilfield Products segment required by the increase in business activity this segment has experienced in recent months. The increase in accounts payable follows the increase in inventory levels.
Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 totaled $12,811 which included our $10,294 cash investment in TRX Industries and $2,633 in capital expenditures.
Net cash flows used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $1,051 and consisted almost entirely of capital expenditures.
Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the first quarter of 2012 totaled $8,173, which included net borrowings on bank lines of credit of $9,840. These sources of cash flow were partially offset by uses of cash flows in financing activities which included payment on our loan with the former owners of LRI of $1,127 and payment of quarterly dividends of $535.
Net cash flows used in financing activities for the first quarter of 2011 totaled $223, which included payment of quarterly dividends of $529, $205 in principal payments on our Nord LB term loan, $128 for the negative tax impact of stock-based compensation and payment on capital lease obligations of $76. Sources of cash flow from financing activities included net borrowings on bank lines of credit of $668.
Payment of Dividends
On March 7, 2012, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.04 per share which was paid on April 16, 2012. The dividend totaled $539 and was payable to shareholders of record as of March 30, 2012. We also paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.04 per share in the first quarter of 2011.
We may continue to pay quarterly dividends in the future subject to capital availability and periodic determinations that cash dividends are in compliance with our debt covenants and are in the best interests of our stockholders, but we cannot assure you that such payments will continue. Future dividends may be affected by, among other items, our views on potential future capital requirements, future business prospects, debt covenant compliance, changes in federal income tax laws, or any other factors that our board of directors deems relevant. Any decision to pay cash dividends is and will continue to be at the discretion of board of directors.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our critical accounting policies have not changed from those reported in our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
There have been no events that materially affect our quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk from that reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is accurately recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of March 31, 2012, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. There have been no changes in our internal controls during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 or in other factors that could materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. As a result of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. As a result of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
