TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – Unaudited
1.
|
BASIS
OF PRESENTATION
|
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America for interim financial information (Accounting
Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting)
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations,
and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. Operating results for interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal
year as a whole. In the opinion of management, the condensed
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of Greatbatch, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Greatbatch Ltd.
(collectively “Greatbatch” or the “Company”) for the periods
presented. 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, liabilities, sales, expenses, and related disclosures at the
date of the financial statements and during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates. The January 2, 2009 condensed consolidated balance sheet
data, as retroactively adjusted (see note 2), was derived from audited
consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required
by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended January 2, 2009. The Company utilizes a fifty-two,
fifty-three week fiscal year ending on the Friday nearest December
31st. For 52-week years, each quarter contains 13
weeks. The second quarter of 2009 and 2008 each contained 13 weeks
and ended on July 3, and June 27, respectively. The Company has
evaluated subsequent events through August 11, 2009, the date of issuance of our
condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has revised
its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to include a presentation of
Gross Profit and to combine intangible amortization expense related to cost of
sales with Cost of Sales, which was previously broken out
separately.

APPLICATION
OF NEW ACCOUNTING POLICY
|
Beginning
in 2009, the Company was required to adopt Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments that May be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement)” as it was determined that Emerging Issues Task Force Issue
07-5, “Determining Whether an
Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” did
not impact the Company’s determination that its convertible subordinated notes
are indexed to its own stock. Thus, the conversion feature of the
subordinated notes remains eligible for the paragraph 11(a) scope exception of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities” and is not required to be accounted
for as a derivative instrument. This FSP requires retrospective restatement
for all prior periods presented in financial statements.
This FSP
requires issuers of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash
upon conversion, such as the Company’s CSN II as described in Note 6, to
separately account for the liability and equity components of those instruments
in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate
when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. As a result,
the Company first determined the carrying amount of the liability component of
CSN II by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have the
associated conversion option as of the date CSN II was issued (March
2007). The carrying amount of the conversion option was then
determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the
initial proceeds received from the issuance of CSN II. The carrying
amount of the conversion option was retroactively recorded as Additional Paid-In
Capital with an offset to Long-Term Debt.
- 7

GREATBATCH,
INC.
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – Unaudited
The
carrying amount of the conversion option is being amortized to Interest Expense
using the effective interest rate method over the expected life of a
similar liability without a conversion option. Deferred financing fees incurred
in connection with the issuance of CSN II, previously recorded as Other
Assets, were allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion
to the allocation of proceeds between the liability and equity components. The
deferred financing fees allocated to the debt component are being amortized to
Interest Expense over the expected life of CSN II. The deferred
financing fees allocated to the equity component were recorded as an offset
to Stockholders’ Equity. The 2008 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
presented in this quarterly report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect
the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 as if it were in effect on the date CSN II were
originally issued. The following table provides the impact of FSP APB 14-1 on
the 2008 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

Revolving Line of
Credit - The Company has a senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”)
consisting of a $235 million revolving credit facility, which can be increased
to $335 million upon the Company’s request. The Credit Facility also
contains a $15 million letter of credit subfacility and a $15 million swingline
subfacility. The Credit Facility is secured by the Company’s
non-realty assets including cash, accounts receivable and inventories, and has
an expiration date of May 22, 2012 with a one-time option to extend to April 1,
2013 if no default has occurred. Interest rates under the Credit
Facility are, at the Company’s option, based upon the current prime rate or the
LIBOR rate plus a margin that varies with the Company’s leverage
ratio. If interest is paid based upon the prime rate, the applicable
margin is between minus 1.25% and 0.00%. If interest is paid based
upon the LIBOR rate, the applicable margin is between 1.00% and
2.00%. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee between 0.125%
and 0.250% per annum on the unused portion of the Credit Facility based on the
Company’s leverage ratio.
The
Credit Facility contains limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness,
limitations on the incurrence of liens and licensing of intellectual property,
limitations on investments and restrictions on certain
payments. Except to the extent paid for by common equity of
Greatbatch or paid for out of cash on hand, the Credit Facility limits the
amount paid for acquisitions to $100 million. The restrictions on
payments, among other things, limit repurchases of Greatbatch’s stock to $60
million and limits the ability of the Company to make cash payments upon
conversion of CSN II. These limitations can be waived upon the
Company’s request and approval of a simple majority of the lenders.
The
Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain a ratio of adjusted
EBITDA, as defined in the credit agreement, to interest expense of at least 3.00
to 1.00, and a total leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, of not
greater than 5.00 to 1.00 from May 22, 2007 through September 29, 2009 and not
greater than 4.50 to 1.00 from September 30, 2009 and thereafter. As
of July 3, 2009, the Company was in compliance with all required
covenants.
The
Credit Facility contains customary events of default. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, a majority of the
lenders may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the
Credit Facility immediately due and payable.

The
weighted average interest rate on borrowings under the Company’s revolving line
of credit as of July 3, 2009, which does not include the impact of the interest
rate swaps described below, was 2.6%. Interest rates reset based upon
the six-month ($111 million) and two-month ($10 million) LIBOR
rate. As of July 3, 2009, the Company had $114 million available
under its revolving line of credit.
Interest Rate Swaps –
The Company has entered into three receive floating-pay fixed interest rate
swaps indexed to the six-month LIBOR rate. The objective of these
swaps is to hedge against potential changes in cash flows on the Company’s
outstanding revolving line of credit, which is indexed to the six-month LIBOR
rate. No credit risk was hedged. The receive variable leg
of the swap and the variable rate paid on the revolving line of credit bear the
same rate of interest, excluding the credit spread, and reset and pay interest
on the same dates. The Company intends to continue electing the
six-month LIBOR as the benchmark interest rate on the debt being
hedged. If the Company repays the debt it intends to replace the
hedged item with similarly indexed forecast cash flows. Information
regarding the Company’s outstanding interest rate swaps is as

The
estimated fair value of the interest rate swap agreements represents the amount
the Company expects to receive (pay) to terminate the contracts and is recorded
as Other Assets or Other Long-Term Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets. No portion of the change in fair value of the
interest rate swaps during the first six months of 2009 was considered
ineffective. The amount recorded as additional interest expense
during the first six months of 2009 related to the interest rate swaps was $0.5
million.
Convertible
Subordinated Notes - In May 2003, the Company completed a private
placement of $170 million of 2.25% convertible subordinated notes, due June 15,
2013 (“CSN I”). In March 2007, the Company entered into separate,
privately negotiated agreements to exchange $117.8 million of CSN I for an
equivalent principal amount of a new series of 2.25% convertible subordinated
notes due 2013 (“CSN II”) (collectively the “Exchange”) at a 5%
discount. The primary purpose of the Exchange was to eliminate the
June 15, 2010 call and put option that is included in the terms of CSN
I. In connection with the Exchange, the Company issued an additional
$80 million aggregate principal amount of CSN II at a price of $950 per $1,000
of principal. In December 2008, the Company entered into privately
negotiated agreements under which it repurchased $21.8 million in aggregate
principal amount of its outstanding CSN I at $845.38 per $1,000 of
principal. The primary purpose of this transaction was to retire the
notes, which contained a put option exercisable on June 15, 2010, at a
discount.

NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – Unaudited
The
following is a summary of the significant terms of CSN I and CSN
II:
CSN I - The notes
bear interest at 2.25% per annum, payable semi-annually, and are due on June 15,
2013. Holders may convert the notes into shares of the Company’s
common stock at a conversion price of $40.29 per share, which is equivalent to a
conversion ratio of 24.8219 shares per $1,000 of principal, subject to
adjustment, before the close of business on June 15, 2013 only under the
following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after July 4,
2003, if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 120% of
the $40.29 conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive
trading day period ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal
quarter; (2) subject to certain exceptions, during the five business days after
any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 of
principal for each day of such period was less than 98% of the product of the
closing sale price of the Company’s common stock and the number of shares
issuable upon conversion of $1,000 of principal; (3) if the notes have been
called for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of certain corporate events.
The fair value of the CSN I notes based on recent sales prices as of July 3,
2009 was approximately $29 million.
Beginning
June 20, 2010, the Company may redeem any of the notes at a redemption price of
100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest. Note holders
may require the Company to repurchase their notes on June 15, 2010 or at any
time prior to their maturity following a fundamental change, as defined in the
indenture agreement, at a repurchase price of 100% of their principal amount,
plus accrued interest. As a result of this provision, beginning in
the second quarter of 2009 the remaining balance of CSN I, along with the
associated deferred tax liability and deferred fees, were classified as
short-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and will be repaid with
availability under the Company’s revolving line of credit or cash flow from
operations. The notes are subordinated in right of payment to all of our senior
indebtedness and effectively subordinated to all debts and other liabilities of
the Company’s subsidiaries.
Beginning
with the six-month interest period commencing June 15, 2010, the Company will
pay additional contingent interest during any six-month interest period if the
trading price of the notes for each of the five trading days immediately
preceding the first day of the interest period equals or exceeds 120% of the
principal amount of the notes.
CSN II - The notes
bear interest at 2.25% per annum, payable semi-annually, and are due on June 15,
2013. The holders may convert the notes into shares of the Company’s
common stock at a conversion price of $34.70 per share, which is equivalent to a
conversion ratio of 28.8219 shares per $1,000 of principal. The
conversion price and the conversion ratio will adjust automatically upon certain
changes to the Company’s capitalization. CSN II notes were issued at
a price of $950 per $1,000 of principal. The fair value of the CSN II
notes based on recent sales prices as of July 3, 2009 was approximately $162
million.
The
effective interest rate of CSN II notes, which takes into consideration the
amortization of the original discount, deferred fees related to the issuance of
these notes and FSP APB 14-1 discount (See Note 2) is 8.5%. The
discount on CSN II is being amortized to the maturity date of the convertible
notes utilizing the effective interest method. As of July 3, 2009,
the carrying amount of the discount related to the FSP APB 14-1 equity component
was $34.9 million. As of July 3, 2009, the if-converted value of CSN
II notes does not exceed its principal amount as the Company’s closing stock
price of $22.00 did not exceed the conversion price.

Conversions
in connection with corporate transactions that constitute a fundamental change
require the Company to pay a premium make-whole amount, based upon a
predetermined table as set forth in the indenture agreement, whereby the
conversion ratio on the notes may be increased by up to 8.2 shares per $1,000 of
principal. The premium make-whole amount will be paid in shares of
common stock upon any such conversion, subject to the net share settlement
feature of the notes described below.
CSN II
contains a net share settlement feature that requires the Company to pay cash
for each $1,000 of principal to be converted. Any amounts in excess
of $1,000 will be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock, or at the
Company’s option, cash. The Company has a one-time irrevocable
election to pay the holders in shares of its common stock, which it currently
does not plan to exercise.
The notes
are redeemable by the Company at any time on or after June 20, 2012, or at the
option of a holder upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes, as
defined in the agreement, affecting the Company. The notes are
subordinated in right of payment to all of our senior indebtedness and
effectively subordinated to all debts and other liabilities of the Company’s
subsidiaries.

Interest rate swaps -
The fair value of interest rate swaps are obtained from cash flow models that
utilize observable market data inputs to estimate fair value. These
observable market data inputs include LIBOR and swap rates, and credit spread
curves. In addition to the above, the Company receives fair value
estimates from the interest rate swap counterparty to verify the reasonableness
of the Company’s estimates. The Company’s interest rate swaps are
categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Foreign currency
contracts - The fair value of foreign currency contracts are obtained
from cash flow models that utilize observable market data inputs to estimate
fair value. These observable market data inputs include foreign
exchange rate and credit spread curves. The Company’s foreign
currency contracts are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy.
Convertible subordinated
notes - The fair value of the Company’s convertible subordinated notes

(a)
2005 &
2006 facility shutdowns and consolidations. Beginning in the first
quarter of 2005 and ending in the second quarter of 2006 the Company
consolidated its medical capacitor manufacturing operations in Cheektowaga, NY,
and its implantable medical battery manufacturing operations in Clarence, NY,
into its advanced power source manufacturing facility in Alden, NY (“Alden
Facility”). The Company also consolidated its capacitor research,
development and engineering operations from its Cheektowaga, NY facility into
its technology center in Clarence, NY.
In the
first quarter of 2005, the Company announced its intent to close its Carson
City, NV facility and consolidate the work performed at that facility into its
Tijuana, Mexico facility. That consolidation project was completed in
the third quarter of 2007.
In the
fourth quarter of 2005, the Company announced its intent to close its Columbia,
MD facility (“Columbia Facility”) and Fremont, CA Advanced Research Laboratory
(“ARL”). The Company also announced that the manufacturing operations
at its Columbia Facility would be moved into its Tijuana Facility and that the
research, development and engineering and product development functions at its
Columbia Facility and at ARL would relocate to its technology center in
Clarence, NY. The ARL portion of this consolidation project was
completed in the fourth quarter of 2006. The Columbia Facility
portion of this consolidation project was completed in the third quarter of
2008.
During
the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company completed a plan for consolidating its
corporate and business unit organization structure. A significant
portion of the annual savings from this initiative was reinvested into research
and development activities and business growth opportunities.
The total
cost of these projects was $24.7 million, which was incurred from 2005 to 2008,
and included the following:
|
a.
|
Severance
and retention - $7.4 million;

(b) 2007 &
2008 facility shutdowns and consolidations. In the first quarter of
2007, the Company announced that it would close its Electrochem manufacturing
facility in Canton, MA and construct a new 81,000 square foot replacement
facility in Raynham, MA. This initiative was not cost savings driven
but capacity driven and was completed in the first quarter of 2009.
In the
second quarter of 2007, the Company announced that it would consolidate its
corporate offices in Clarence, NY into its existing research and development
center also in Clarence, NY after an expansion of that facility was
complete. This expansion and relocation was completed in the third
quarter of 2008.
During
the second and third quarters of 2008, the Company reorganized and consolidated
various general and administrative and research and development functions
throughout the organization in order to optimize those resources with the
businesses it acquired in 2007 and 2008.
In the
second half of 2008, the Company ceased manufacturing at its facility in Suzhou,
China (Electrochem), closed its leased manufacturing facility in Orchard Park,
NY (Electrochem), and consolidated its Saignelegier,
Switzerland manufacturing facility (Orthopaedics). The operations of these
facilities were relocated to existing facilities that had excess
capacity.
In the
fourth quarter of 2008, management of the Company approved a plan for the
closure of its Teterboro, New Jersey (Electrochem manufacturing), Blaine,
Minnesota (Vascular Access manufacturing) and Exton, Pennsylvania (Orthopaedics
corporate office) facilities. The Blaine, Minnesota and Exton,
Pennsylvania consolidations were completed in the second quarter of 2009. The
Teterboro, New Jersey initiative is expected to be completed over the next six
months.
The total
cost for the 2007 & 2008 facility shutdowns and consolidations is expected
to be approximately $14.2 million to $17.5 million, of which $12.4 million has
been incurred through July 3, 2009. The major categories of costs
include the following:
|
a.
|
Severance
and retention - $4.5 million to $5.5
million;
|
|
b.
|
Production
inefficiencies, moving and revalidation - $3.0 million to $4.0
million;
|
|
c.
|
Accelerated
depreciation and asset write-offs - $3.5 million to $4.0
million;
|
|
d.
|
Personnel
- $1.2 million to $1.5 million; and
|
|
e.
|
Other
- $2.0 million to $2.5 million.
|
All
categories of costs are considered to be cash expenditures, except accelerated
depreciation and asset write-offs. For the six months ended July 3,
2009, costs relating to these initiatives of $1.4 million and $2.1 million were
included in the Greatbatch Medical and Electrochem business segments,
respectively. Costs incurred during the first six months of 2008 of
$1.1 million and $0.5 million were included in the Greatbatch Medical and
Electrochem business segments, respectively.
As a
result of these consolidation initiatives, during the second quarter of 2009 two
facilities with a carrying value of $4.3 million were transferred to held for
sale in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets. As the current
fair value of these facilities was determined to be above their carrying value,
no impairment charge was recorded. These facilities are expected to
be sold within the next year. As of July 3, 2009, the balance of
assets held for sale was $5.5 million and is included in Other Current Assets in
the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

INCOME
TAXES
|
The
income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the
annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken
into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of
the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax
rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is a potential
for volatility of the effective tax rate due to several factors, including
changes in the mix of the pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it
relates, business acquisitions, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign
currency fluctuations.
The
effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2009 was 19.4%. This is
lower than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the
favorable impact of the resolution of tax audits during the quarter, which are
treated as discrete items. Currently we expect the effective tax rate
(including discrete items) to be approximately 29% for 2009.
During
the second quarter of 2009, the balance of unrecognized tax benefits decreased
approximately $0.9 million to $4.0 million. This is a result of the
favorable impact of the resolution of tax audits during the
quarter. Approximately $2.5 million of the balance of unrecognized
tax benefits would favorably impact the effective tax rate (net of federal
benefit on state issues), if recognized. It is reasonably possible
that a reduction in the range of $0.8 million to $1.2 million of the balance of
unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months as a result of
potential settlements with taxing authorities and the lapse of applicable
statutes of limitation.
On May 4,
2009, President Obama’s administration outlined a proposal to modify certain
aspects of the rules governing the U.S. taxation of certain non-U.S.
subsidiaries. Many details of the proposal remain unknown and any legislation
enacting such modifications would require Congressional approval; however,
changes to these rules could impact our effective tax rate.

COMMITMENTS
AND CONTINGENCIES
|
Litigation – The Company is a party to
various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. While
the Company does not believe, except as indicated below, that the ultimate
resolution of any such pending actions will have a material adverse effect on
its results of operations, financial position or cash flows, litigation is
subject to inherent uncertainties. If an unfavorable ruling were to
occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact in the period
in which the ruling occurs.
As
previously reported, on June 12, 2006, Enpath Medical, Inc. (“Enpath”), a
subsidiary of the Company that has since been merged into Greatbatch Ltd., was
named as defendant in a patent infringement action filed by Pressure Products
Medical Supplies, Inc. (“Pressure Products”) in which Pressure Products alleged
that Enpath’s FlowGuard™ valved introducer, which has been on the market for
more than four years, and Enpath’s ViaSeal™ prototype introducer, which has not
been sold, infringes claims in Pressure Products patents. After
trial, a jury found that Enpath infringed the Pressure Products patents, but not
willfully, and awarded damages in the amount of $1.1 million. The
Company has appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit, and oral arguments were heard before that tribunal on April 21,
2009. As a result of a post-trial motion and pending the appeal, the
Company is permitted to continue to sell FlowGuard™ provided that it pays into
an escrow fund a royalty of between $1.50 and $2.25 for each sale of a
FlowGuard™ valved introducer. The amount accrued as escrow during the
second quarter of 2009 was $0.2 million and $1.2 million in total as of July 3,
2009.
During
2002, a former non-medical customer commenced an action alleging that Greatbatch
had used proprietary information of the customer to develop certain
products. Management believes the Company has meritorious defenses
and is vigorously defending the matter. The matter is scheduled for
trial during the third quarter of 2009. The estimated potential risk
of loss is up to $2.5 million.
Product
Warranties - The Company generally warrants that its products will meet
customer specifications and will be free from defects in materials and
workmanship. The Company accrues its estimated exposure to warranty
claims based upon recent historical experience and other specific information as
it becomes available.

Purchase
Commitments – Contractual obligations for purchase of goods or services
are defined as agreements that are enforceable and legally binding on the
Company and that specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum
quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the
approximate timing of the transaction. Our purchase orders are
normally based on our current manufacturing needs and are fulfilled by our
vendors within short time horizons. We enter into blanket orders with
vendors that have preferred pricing and terms, however these orders are normally
cancelable by us without penalty. As of July 3, 2009, the total
contractual obligation related to such expenditures is approximately $15.0
million and will be financed by existing cash and cash equivalents or cash
generated from operations over the next twelve months. We also enter
into contracts for outsourced services; however, the obligations under these
contracts were not significant and the contracts generally contain clauses
allowing for cancellation without significant penalty.
Operating
Leases - The Company is a party to various operating lease agreements for
buildings, equipment and software. Minimum future annual operating
lease payments are $1.3 million for the remainder of 2009; $2.1 million in 2010;
$1.9 million in 2011; $1.8 million in 2012; $1.7 million in 2013 and $3.0
million thereafter. The Company primarily leases buildings, which
accounts for the majority of the future lease payments.
Foreign Currency
Contracts - In December 2007, the Company entered into a
forward contract to purchase 80,000,000 CHF, at an exchange rate of 1.1389 CHF
per one U.S. dollar, in order to partially fund the purchase price of P Medical
Holdings SA (“Precimed”), which was payable in Swiss Francs. In
January 2008, the Company entered into an additional forward contract to
purchase 20,000,000 CHF at an exchange rate of 1.1156 per one U.S.
dollar. The Company entered into a similar foreign exchange contract
in January 2008 in order to fund the purchase price of the DePuy Orthopaedics’
Chaumont, France facility (the “Chaumont Facility”), which was payable in
Euros. The net result of the above contracts, which were settled upon
the funding of the respective acquisitions, was a gain of $2.4 million, $1.6
million of which was recorded in the first quarter of 2008 and $0.8 million
in the fourth quarter of 2007 as Other Income, Net.
In
February 2009, the Company entered into a forward contract to purchase 10
million Mexican pesos per month from March 2009 to December 2009 at an exchange
rate of 14.85 pesos per one U.S. dollar. This contract was entered
into in order to hedge the risk of peso-denominated payments associated with the
operations at the Company’s Tijuana, Mexico facility. This contract
was accounted for as a cash flow hedge and had a fair value of $0.4 million as
of July 3, 2009, which is recorded within Other Assets in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets. No portion of the change in fair value
of the foreign currency contracts during the first three months of 2009 was
considered ineffective. The amount recorded as a reduction of Cost of
Sales during the first six months of 2009 related to the forward contract was
$0.2 million.

the U.S. dollar is not the functional currency, at the period-end exchange rate
and translates income and expenses at the average exchange rates in effect
during the period. The net effect of these translation adjustments is
recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements as comprehensive
income (loss). Translation adjustments are not adjusted for income
taxes as they relate to permanent investments in the Company’s foreign
subsidiaries.
The
Company has designated its interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts -
see Notes 6 and 12 - as cash flow hedges under SFAS No.
133. Accordingly, the effective portion of any change in the fair
value of these instruments is recorded in comprehensive income (loss), net of
tax, and reclassified into earnings (Interest Expense – Swaps, Cost of Sales –
FX Contracts) in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction
affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge
ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

BUSINESS
SEGMENT, GEOGRAPHIC AND CONCENTRATION RISK
INFORMATION
|
The
Company operates its business in two reportable segments – Greatbatch Medical
and Electrochem Solutions (“Electrochem”). During the first quarter
of 2009, the Company rebranded its Implantable Medical Component (“IMC”) segment
as Greatbatch Medical. The Greatbatch Medical segment designs and
manufactures components and devices for the CRM, Neuromodulation, Vascular
Access and Orthopaedic markets. Additionally, the Greatbatch Medical
business offers value-added assembly and design engineering services for
products that incorporate Greatbatch Medical components.
Electrochem
is a world leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of electrochemical
cells, battery packs and wireless sensors for demanding applications in markets
such as energy, security, portable medical, environmental monitoring and
more.
The
Company defines segment income from operations as sales less cost of sales
including amortization and expenses attributable to segment-specific selling,
general and administrative, research, development and engineering expenses, and
other operating expenses. Segment income also includes a portion of
non-segment specific selling, general and administrative, and research,
development and engineering expenses based on allocations appropriate to the
expense categories. The remaining unallocated operating expenses are
primarily corporate headquarters and administrative function
expenses. The unallocated operating expenses along with other income
and expense are not allocated to reportable segments. Transactions
between the two segments are not significant. The six-month 2008
results for the Greatbatch Medical segment include $6.4 million and $2.2 million
of inventory step-up amortization and IPR&D expense, respectively, related
to its 2007 and 2008 acquisitions.

IMPACT
OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING
STANDARDS
|
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards
Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – a
replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.” SFAS No. 168 stipulates that the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification is the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP
recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental
entities. SFAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued
for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The
implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation
No. 46(R).” SFAS No. 167 amends the consolidation guidance applicable to
variable interest entities and affects the overall consolidation analysis under
FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). SFAS No. 167 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company is currently assessing
the impact of SFAS No. 167 on its consolidated financial position and results of
operations.
In
December 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers' Disclosures about
Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets.” This FSP provides
guidance on disclosures about plan assets of defined benefit pension or other
postretirement plans and requires more transparency about the assets held by
retirement plans and the concentrations of risk in those plans. This
FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2009. The Company will make the disclosures required by this FSP
beginning in fiscal year 2010.

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
Our
Business
Greatbatch,
Inc. is a leading developer and manufacturer of critical products used in
medical devices for the cardiac rhythm management (“CRM”), neuromodulation,
vascular, orthopaedic and interventional radiology
markets. Additionally, Greatbatch, Inc. is a world leader in the
design, manufacture and distribution of battery and wireless sensing
technologies. When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our”
and the “Company” mean Greatbatch, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We
believe that our proprietary technology, close customer relationships, multiple
product offerings, market leadership and dedication to quality provide us with
competitive advantages and create a barrier to entry for potential market
entrants.
We operate our business in two
reportable segments – Greatbatch Medical and Electrochem Solutions
(“Electrochem”). During 2009, we rebranded our Implantable
Medical Component (“IMC”) segment as Greatbatch Medical. The
Greatbatch Medical segment designs and manufactures components and devices for
the CRM, Neuromodulation, Vascular Access and Orthopaedic
markets. These include batteries, capacitors, filtered feedthroughs,
engineered components and enclosures used in Implantable Medical Devices
(“IMDs”) and more recently hip and knee replacement, trauma and spine as well as
hip and shoulder implants and introducers, catheters, implantable stimulation
leads and microcomponents. Additionally, the Greatbatch Medical
business offers value-added assembly and design engineering services for
products that incorporate Greatbatch Medical components.
Electrochem
is a world leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of electrochemical
cells, battery packs and wireless sensors for demanding applications in markets
such as energy, security, portable medical, environmental monitoring and
more.
Our
Customers
Our
Greatbatch Medical customers include leading Original Equipment Manufacturers
(“OEM”), in alphabetical order here and throughout this report, such as
Biotronik, Boston Scientific, DePuy, Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic, Smith
& Nephew, the Sorin Group, St. Jude Medical, Stryker and Zimmer Holdings,
Inc. The nature and extent of our selling relationships with each
Greatbatch Medical customer are different in terms of breadth of products
purchased, purchased product volumes, length of contractual commitment, ordering
patterns, inventory management and selling prices. During the first
six months of 2009, Boston Scientific, Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic and St.
Jude Medical collectively accounted for 63% of our total sales.
Our
Electrochem customers are primarily companies in markets such as energy,
security, portable medical and environmental monitoring including General
Electric, Halliburton Company, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Thales,
Weatherford International and Zoll Medical Corp.
Financial
Overview
Consolidated
sales for the first six months of 2009 were $274.5 million, an increase of 4%
over the comparable 2008 period. This growth was driven by CRM and
Neuromodulation revenue and the benefit of a full six months of Orthopaedic
operations ($8 million) as compared to the 2008 period. Partially
offsetting these increases were lower Electrochem revenue due to a slow-down in
the energy markets and approximately $4 million of foreign currency impact on
our Orthopaedic sales. Our revenue is significantly impacted each
quarter due to the timing of various customer product launches, shifts in
customer market share, customer inventory management initiatives as well as
marketplace field actions.
- 27
-
Operating
income increased to $27.3 million for the first six months of 2009 compared to
$7.2 million for the comparable 2008 period. Operating income for the
first six months of 2009 included $5.2 million of acquisition related charges,
consolidation costs and integration expenses compared to $12.6 million for the
same period in 2008. We have initiated various consolidation
initiatives aimed at streamlining our operations and improving operating
profitability. The progress made on these initiatives can be seen by
the improvement in operating margin from 2008 to 2009.
As of the
end of the second quarter of 2009, cash and cash equivalents totaled $19.0
million. These funds along with the cash generated from operations
and the $114 million available under our line of credit are sufficient to meet
our operating and investment activities for the foreseeable future, including
the cash expenditures relating to our consolidation
initiatives. During the first two quarters of 2009, we repaid $11
million of our long-term debt which was funded by cash flows from
operations.
Our CEO’s
View
We
continued to deliver solid financial results during the first half of
2009. This was a direct result of our balanced approach to
diversifying our revenue base, continuously generating value through operating
performance improvements, and delivering innovative new products to our
customers. We continued to make important strides in reducing costs
and implementing the Greatbatch operating model across all of our business
lines, as evidenced by the progress we have made on the integration of our
acquisitions and our ongoing consolidation of facilities around the globe. We
remain focused on reaching our financial and operational goals for the year, but
we are also keenly aware of the market conditions that continue to impact our
business. While these market conditions are expected to be our biggest challenge
in the second half of 2009, we believe our strong cash generation, financial
discipline and effective cost structure will enable us to continue to increase
shareholder value.

Approximately
$2.3 million of the BIOMEC, Inc. (“BIOMEC”) acquisition purchase price in April
2007 was allocated to the estimated fair value of acquired in-process research
and development (“IPR&D”) projects that had not yet reached technological
feasibility and had no alternative future use, thus were immediately expensed on
the date of acquisition. The value assigned to IPR&D related to
projects that incorporate BIOMEC’s novel-polymer coating (biomimetic)
technology that mimics the surface of endothelial cells of blood
vessels. An agreement was reached in 2008 with an OEM partner to
provide coating material and services for their catheter
products. The 510(k) application was approved by the Food and Drug
Administration (“FDA”) and sales began in the second quarter of
2009. There have been no significant changes from our original
estimates with regard to these projects.
- 28
-
Approximately
$13.8 million of the Enpath Medical, Inc. (“Enpath”) acquisition purchase price
in June 2007 was allocated to the estimated fair value of acquired IPR&D
projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no
alternative future use, thus were immediately expensed on the date of
acquisition. These projects primarily represent the next generation of
introducer and catheter products already being sold by Enpath which incorporate
new enhancements and customer modifications. One introducer project
was launched near the end of 2008. We expect to commercially launch
the other introducer products under development in 2010 which will replace
existing products. These introducer projects acquired have been
delayed due to timing of customer adoption and transition and technical
difficulties of some of the projects. Additionally, future sales from
our ViaSealTM
introducer project are uncertain due to litigation (See
“Litigation”). The catheter IPR&D project, to which a portion of
the Enpath purchase price was allocated, has been put on hold indefinitely in
order to allocate resources to other projects. The lost revenue from
the delays in these introducer and catheter projects are expected to be
partially offset with revenue from other projects initiated after the
acquisition of Enpath.
Approximately
$2.2 million of the P Medical Holding SA (“Precimed”) acquisition purchase price
was allocated to the preliminary estimated fair value of acquired IPR&D
projects that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no
alternative future use, thus were immediately expensed on the date of
acquisition. The value assigned to IPR&D related to Reamer,
Instrument Kit, Locking Plate and Cutting Guide projects. These
projects primarily represent the next generation of products already being sold
by Precimed which incorporate new enhancements and customer
modifications. We commercially launched a portion of these
products in 2008 and expect to launch others in 2009. Several of the
other orthopaedic projects acquired have been delayed and two have been
cancelled due to the timing of customer adoption, technical difficulties,
inability to meet margin goals and feasibility assessments. These changes
are not expected to have a material impact on operating income as these projects
were expected to have lower margins associated with them.
Cost Savings and
Consolidation Efforts
From 2005
to 2008, we recorded charges in other operating expenses related to our ongoing
cost savings and consolidation efforts. Additional information is set
forth in Note 10 – “Other Operating Expense” of the Notes to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report.
2005 & 2006
facility shutdowns and consolidations - Beginning in the first quarter of
2005 and ending in the second quarter of 2006 we consolidated our medical
capacitor manufacturing operations in Cheektowaga, NY, and our implantable
medical battery manufacturing operations in Clarence, NY, into our advanced
power source manufacturing facility in Alden, NY (“Alden
Facility”). We also consolidated our capacitor research, development
and engineering operations from our Cheektowaga, NY facility into our technology
center in Clarence, NY.
In the
first quarter of 2005, we announced our intent to close our Carson City, NV
facility and consolidate the work performed at that facility into our Tijuana,
Mexico facility. That consolidation project was completed in the
third quarter of 2007.
In the
fourth quarter of 2005, we announced our intent to close our Columbia, MD
facility (“Columbia Facility”) and Fremont, CA Advanced Research Laboratory
(“ARL”). We also announced that the manufacturing operations at our
Columbia Facility would be moved into our Tijuana Facility and that the
research, development and engineering and product development functions at our
Columbia Facility and at ARL would relocate to our technology center in
Clarence, NY. The ARL portion of this consolidation project was
completed in the fourth quarter of 2006. The Columbia Facility
portion of this consolidation project was completed in the third quarter of
2008.
During
the fourth quarter of 2006, we completed a plan for consolidating our
corporate and business unit organization structure. A significant
portion of the annual savings from this initiative was reinvested into research
and development activities and business growth
opportunities.
- 29
-
The total
cost of these projects was $24.7 million, which was incurred from 2005 to 2008,
and included the following:
a.
|
Severance
and retention - $7.4 million;
|
b.
|
Production
inefficiencies, moving and revalidation - $4.6
million;
|
c.
|
Accelerated
depreciation and asset write-offs - $1.1
million;
|
d.
|
Personnel
- $8.4 million; and
|
e.
|
Other
- $3.2 million.
|
All
categories of costs were considered to be cash expenditures, except accelerated
depreciation and asset write-offs. All costs incurred during 2008
were included in the Greatbatch Medical business segment.
2007 & 2008
facility shutdowns and consolidations - In the first quarter of 2007, we
announced that we would close our Electrochem manufacturing facility in Canton,
MA and construct a new 81,000 square foot replacement facility in Raynham,
MA. This initiative was not cost savings driven but capacity driven
and was completed in the first quarter of 2009.
In the
second quarter of 2007, we announced that we would consolidate our corporate
offices in Clarence, NY into our existing research and development center also
in Clarence, NY after an expansion of that facility was
complete. This expansion and relocation was completed in the third
quarter of 2008.
During
the second and third quarters of 2008, we reorganized and consolidated various
general and administrative and research and development functions throughout the
organization in order to optimize those resources with the businesses we
acquired in 2007 and 2008.
In the
second half of 2008, we ceased manufacturing at our facility in Suzhou, China
(Electrochem), closed our leased manufacturing facility in Orchard Park, NY
(Electrochem), and consolidated our Saignelegier, Switzerland manufacturing
facility (Orthopaedics). The operations of these facilities were
relocated to existing facilities that had excess capacity.
In the
fourth quarter of 2008, we approved a plan for the closure of our Teterboro, New
Jersey (Electrochem manufacturing), Blaine, Minnesota (Vascular Access
manufacturing) and Exton, Pennsylvania (Orthopaedics corporate office)
facilities. The Blaine, Minnesota and Exton, Pennsylvania
consolidations were completed in the second quarter of 2009. The
Teterboro, New Jersey initiative is expected to be completed over the next six
months.
The total
cost for the 2007 & 2008 facility shutdowns and consolidations is expected
to be approximately $14.2 million to $17.5 million, of which $12.4 million has
been incurred through July 3, 2009. The major categories of costs
include the following:
a.
|
Severance
and retention - $4.5 million to $5.5
million;
|
b.
|
Production
inefficiencies, moving and revalidation - $3.0 million to $4.0
million;
|
c.
|
Accelerated
depreciation and asset write-offs - $3.5 million to $4.0
million;
|
d.
|
Personnel
- $1.2 million to $1.5 million; and
|
e.
|
Other
- $2.0 million to $2.5 million.
|
All
categories of costs are considered to be cash expenditures, except accelerated
depreciation and asset write-offs. For the first two quarters of
2009, costs relating to these initiatives of $1.4 million and $2.1 million were
included in the Greatbatch Medical and Electrochem business segments,
respectively. Costs incurred during the first six months of 2008 of
$1.1 million and $0.5 million were included in the Greatbatch Medical and
Electrochem business segments, respectively.

Our Financial
Results
We
utilize a fifty-two, fifty-three week fiscal year ending on the Friday nearest
December 31st. For 52-week years, each quarter contains 13
weeks. The second quarter of 2009 and 2008 ended on July 3, and June
27, respectively. The commentary that follows should be read in
conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related
notes and with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations contained in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
January 2, 2009.
During
the first quarter of 2009, we were required to adopt Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments that May be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement).” This FSP requires issuers of convertible debt
instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, such as the Company’s
CSN II as described in Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in this report, to separately account for the liability and
equity components of those instruments in a manner that will reflect the
entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in
subsequent periods. This FSP requires retrospective restatement for
all prior periods presented in financial statements. Accordingly, the
2008 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this report have
been retroactively adjusted to reflect the accounting for FSP APB 14-1 as if it
were in effect as of the date CSN II was originally issued. See Note
2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Greatbatch
Medical - The nature and extent of
our selling relationship with each OEM customer is different in terms of
component products purchased, selling prices, product volumes, ordering patterns
and inventory management. We have pricing arrangements with our
customers that at times do not specify minimum order quantities. Our
visibility to customer ordering patterns is over a relatively short period of
time. Our customers may have inventory management programs and
alternate supply arrangements of which we are unaware. Additionally,
the relative market share among the OEM manufacturers changes
periodically. Consequently, these and other factors can significantly
impact our sales in any given period.
Our
customers may initiate field actions with respect to market-released
products. These actions may include product recalls or communications
with a significant number of physicians about a product or labeling
issue. The scope of such actions can range from very minor issues
affecting a small number of units to more significant actions. There
are a number of factors, both short-term and long-term, related to these field
actions that may impact our results. In the short-term, if a product
has to be replaced, or customer inventory levels have to be restored, component
demand will increase. Also, changing customer order patterns due to
market share shifts or accelerated device replacements may also have a positive
or negative impact on our sales results in the near-term. These same
factors may have longer-term implications as well. Customer inventory
levels may ultimately have to be rebalanced to match demand.
Greatbatch
Medical sales decreased 2% for the second quarter of 2009 when compared to the
same period of 2008 as CRM and Neuromodulation revenue growth of 10% was offset
by decreases in Vascular Access and Orthopaedic revenues. Greatbatch Medical
sales for the first six months of 2009 were $240.7 million, an increase of 7%
over the comparable 2008 period. This growth was driven by CRM and
Neuromodulation revenue and the benefit of a full six months of Orthopaedic
operations ($8 million) as compared to the 2008 period. Partially
offsetting these increases was $4 million of foreign currency impact on our
Orthopaedic sales as well as other market conditions in the Orthopaedic
market.
CRM and
Neuromodulation product line revenue of $78.0 million for the quarter increased
10% over the prior year. The second quarter’s results benefited from
strong feedthrough, coated component and assembly revenue partially offset by
lower capacitor sales. CRM revenue is significantly impacted each
quarter due to the timing of various customer product launches, shifts in
customer market share, customer inventory management initiatives as well as
marketplace field actions. Additionally, CRM revenue is impacted by
the overall market growth for implantable devices. The last several
quarters of CRM revenue have benefited from the timing of various customer
product launches and is expected to begin to return to more normalized growth
levels for the remainder of 2009.
- 32
-
Second
quarter revenues for our Vascular Access product line were $9.2 million,
compared to the prior year quarter revenues of $9.8 million. This
decrease was primarily due to lower catheter revenues. We remain
optimistic about the potential of this product line as we continue to work with
customers on new product development. However, many of the projects
that we are working on today will not be seen in our results until
2010.
The
Orthopaedic product line reported revenues of $31.4 million for the quarter
compared to $41.0 million for second quarter 2008. Current quarter
revenues include the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations of approximately $2 million as well as other market conditions,
including a delay in product launches and elective surgeries. Additionally,
second quarter 2008 revenue included the benefit from the release of
approximately $3 million of excess backlog. We believe that year over
year comparisons in orthopaedic revenues will continue to be challenging for the
remainder of 2009. We continue to streamline and invest in our
orthopaedic operations which we believe presents significant
opportunities.
Electrochem - We have pricing
arrangements with our customers that many times do not specify minimum
quantities. Our visibility to customer ordering patterns is over a
relatively short period of time.
Second
quarter and first half 2009 sales for our Electrochem business segment were
$16.2 million and $33.9 million, respectively, compared to $20.1 million and
$39.7 million in the comparable 2008 periods, respectively. These
decreases are consistent with the slow down in the energy and portable
medical markets over the last two quarters, driven by lower oil prices and
uncertainty in the healthcare industry. We continue to actively
manage our business so that we will be better prepared to meet the needs of our
customers once the markets recover.
2009 Sales Outlook – Our continuing outlook is
for full year 2009 sales to be in the range of $550 million to $600
million. This revenue projection assumes that we will continue to
grow faster than our underlying markets by leveraging our diversified revenue
base and our strength in the development and manufacturing of custom
technologies for our customers. This projection may be impacted by a
variety of factors including a further softening in the orthopaedic and
Electrochem markets, potential delays in elective surgeries, the current
financial market unrest, changes in exchange rates and health care
reform. Within the markets we serve, the orthopaedic market
represents the least predictable market due to the elective nature of many of
the surgeries and procedures in which our products are used.

(a)
|
In
connection with our acquisitions in the first quarter of 2008 and fourth
quarter of 2007, the value of inventory on hand was stepped-up to reflect
the fair value at the time of acquisition. The amortization of
inventory step-up, which is recorded in Cost of Sales, was $6.4 million
for the first quarter of 2008. As of the end of the first quarter of 2008,
there was no additional inventory step-up remaining to be
amortized.
|
(b)
|
Manufacturing
efficiencies realized due to higher utilization of our Tijuana, Mexico
facility resulting from higher CRM and Neuromodulation products
manufactured at that facility as well as the consolidation of our
Columbia, MD facility into the Tijuana facility in June
2008. The additional output absorbs a higher amount of fixed
costs such as plant overhead and
depreciation.
|
(c)
|
Due
to the volatility in the markets, during the first quarter of 2009 the
value of the U.S. dollar strengthened significantly in comparison to the
Mexican Peso. This foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation
resulted in a higher gross profit as a percentage of sales at our Tijuana,
Mexico facility which has Peso denominated expenses but sales which are
denominated in U.S. dollars. We should continue to realize this
benefit for the remainder of 2009 as a result of the Mexican Peso foreign
currency contract entered into in February 2009. See Note 12 –
“Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for additional information about
our foreign currency contracts.
|
We expect
our gross profit as a percentage of sales to increase over the next several
years as a result of our “Lean” initiatives and continued consolidation
efforts. Additionally, in the long term new product introductions
resulting from current research and development efforts are expected to help
drive gross margin expansion.

Net
research, development and engineering costs for the second quarter of 2009, as
expected, were $1.0 million higher versus the second quarter of 2008 due to the
strategic decision in 2009 to further invest resources in the development of new
technologies in order to provide solutions to our customers and ultimately drive
long-term growth. Reimbursement on product development projects is
dependent upon the timing of the achievement of milestones and are netted
against gross spending. We expect net RD&E to continue to
increase for the remainder of 2009 as we further invest resources in the
development of new technologies.
Other
Operating Expense
Approximately
$2.2 million of the Precimed purchase price represented the estimated fair value
of IPR&D projects acquired. The Company determined that these
projects had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative
future use as of the acquisition date, thus were immediately expensed on the
date of acquisition in the first quarter of 2008.

implementation of lean manufacturing and six sigma
initiatives. The expenses are primarily for consultants,
relocation and travel costs that will not be required after the
integrations are completed.
|
In 2009,
consolidation and integration expenses are expected to be approximately $10
million to $13 million.

Interest
expense and interest income
Interest
expense, which includes the impact of the adoption of FSP APB 14-1, and
interest income for the second quarter of 2009 were consistent with the same
period of 2008. We expect interest expense to gradually decline as we
use excess cash flow from operations to pay down long-term debt.
Other
(income) expense, net
Included
in Other (Income) Expense, Net during the second quarter of 2009, was a net
foreign currency exchange gain of $0.6 million due to the favorable impact of
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, primarily the weakening of the U.S.
dollar versus the Euro and Swiss Franc. The Company generally does
not expect foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations to have a material impact
on its net income.
Gain on foreign currency
contracts - In December 2007, we entered into a forward contract to
purchase 80,000,000 Swiss Francs (“CHF”), at an exchange rate of 1.1389 CHF per
one U.S. dollar, in order to partially fund our acquisition of Precimed, which
was payable in Swiss Francs. In January 2008, we entered into an
additional forward contract to purchase 20,000,000 CHF at an exchange rate of
1.1156 per one U.S. dollar. We entered into a similar foreign exchange
contract in January 2008 in order to fund our acquisition of DePuy Orthopaedics’
Chaumont, France facility (the “Chaumont Facility”), which was payable in
Euros. The net result of the above transactions was a gain of $2.4
million, $1.6 million of which was recorded in the first quarter of 2008 and
$0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 as Other Income, Net.
Provision
(benefit) for income taxes
The
effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2009 was approximately 19.4%
compared to 27.4% for the second quarter of 2008. The 2009 effective
tax rate is less than the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result
of the favorable resolution of tax audits during the quarter, which are treated
as discrete. Currently we expect our effective tax rate (including
discrete items) to be approximately 29% for 2009.
On May 4,
2009, President Obama’s administration outlined a proposal to modify certain
aspects of the rules governing the U.S. taxation of certain non-U.S.
subsidiaries. Many details of the proposal remain unknown and any legislation
enacting such modifications would require Congressional approval; however,
changes to these rules could impact our effective tax rate.

Our
working capital and current ratio decreased in comparison to year-end
amounts primarily due to the reclassification of $30.4 million of
long-term debt to Current Liabilities as the put/call date was within one
year. This increase in Current Liabilities was partially offset
by cash generated from operations of $21.7 million during the first six
months of 2009. We expect to repay the current portion of long-term debt
with cash flow from operations or availability under our existing
revolving line of credit.
|
- 36
-
Revolving Line of
Credit - We have a senior credit facility (the “Credit Facility”)
consisting of a $235 million revolving line of credit, which can be increased to
$335 million upon our request. The Credit Facility also contains a
$15 million letter of credit subfacility and a $15 million swingline
subfacility. The Credit Facility is secured by our non-realty assets
including cash, accounts and notes receivable, and inventories, and has an
expiration date of May 22, 2012 with a one-time option to extend to April 1,
2013 if no default has occurred. Interest rates under the Credit
Facility are, at our option, based upon the current prime rate or the LIBOR rate
plus a margin that varies with our leverage ratio. If interest is
paid based upon the prime rate, the applicable margin is between minus 1.25% and
0.00%. If interest is paid based upon the LIBOR rate, the applicable
margin is between 1.00% and 2.00%. We are required to pay a
commitment fee between 0.125% and 0.250% per annum on the unused portion of the
Credit Facility based on our leverage ratio. The weighted average interest rate
on borrowings under our revolving line of credit as of July 3, 2009, which does
not include the impact of the interest rate swaps described below, was
2.6%. Interest rates reset based upon the six-month ($111 million)
and two-month ($10 million) LIBOR rate.
The
Credit Facility contains limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness,
limitations on the incurrence of liens and licensing of intellectual property,
limitations on investments and restrictions on certain
payments. Except to the extent paid for by common equity of
Greatbatch or paid for out of cash on hand, the Credit Facility limits the
amount paid for acquisitions in total to $100 million. The
restrictions on payments, among other things, limit repurchases of our stock to
$60 million and limits the ability of the Company to make cash payments upon
conversion of CSN II. These limitations can be waived upon the
Company’s request and approval of a simple majority of the lenders.
The
Credit Facility also requires us to maintain a ratio of adjusted EBITDA, as
defined in the credit agreement, to interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00,
and a total leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement, of not greater
than 5.00 to 1.00 from May 22, 2007 through September 29, 2009 and not greater
than 4.50 to 1.00 from September 30, 2009 and thereafter. As of July
3, 2009, we were in compliance with the required covenants.
The
Credit Facility contains customary events of default. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, a majority of the
lenders may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the
Credit Facility immediately due and payable.
As of
July 3, 2009, we had $114 million available under our revolving line of
credit. Based upon our current capital needs, we anticipate utilizing
free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) to make
principal payments on our revolving line of credit. As of July 3,
2009, we have outstanding $30.5 million of 2.25% convertible subordinated notes
due 2013, which contain a put option exercisable on June 15, 2010 and is
classified as a current liability. We expect to repay the current
portion of our long-term debt with cash flow from operations or availability
under our existing revolving line of credit. The remaining $197.8 million of
convertible subordinated notes are not due until 2013 and do not have a put
option.
Operating
activities - Net cash flows from operating activities for the first two
quarters of 2009 were $21.7 million, and was generated from net income excluding
non-cash items (i.e. depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation,
non-cash gains/losses) and was used to fund working capital accounts (i.e.
increase in inventory, decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses
primarily due to the timing of inventory purchases in connection with our
acquisitions in 2008). We anticipate working off these excess capital
account levels over the next several quarters which will generate increased cash
flow from operations.
We
anticipate that cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our
operating, capital expenditure and debt service needs, other than for any
potential acquisitions. Included in accounts receivable as of
January 2, 2009 was an $11.6 million value added tax (“VAT”) receivable
with the French government related to inventory purchases for the Chaumont
Facility. During the second quarter of 2009, we received payment of
$11.3 million of this receivable. The remaining balance of this
receivable is now subject to the normal VAT payment cycle, generally 30 – 60
days after filing the claim.

-
Investing
activities - Net cash used in investing activities for the first two
quarters of 2009 were $12.5 million and was primarily related to maintenance
capital expenditures. Our current expectation for the remainder of 2009 is
that capital spending will be in the range of $15 million to $25 million, of
which approximately half is discretionary in nature. These purchases
relate to routine investments to support our internal growth and maintain our
technology leadership. We anticipate cash flow from operations will be
sufficient to fund these capital expenditures. We regularly engage in
discussions relating to potential acquisitions. Going
forward, we will continue to consider strategically targeted and
opportunistic acquisitions.
Financing
activities - Cash flow used for financing activities for the first two
quarters of 2009 primarily related to $11.0 million net repayment of long-term
borrowings. We continually assess our financing facilities and
capital structure to ensure liquidity and capital levels are sufficient to meet
our strategic objectives. In the future, we may adjust our capital
structure as funding opportunities present themselves. Our current
expectation is that we will use excess cash flow from operations to fund routine
capital expenditures and pay down long-term debt.
Capital Structure
- At July 3, 2009, our capital structure consisted of $228.2 million of
convertible subordinated notes, $121.0 million of debt under our revolving line
of credit and 23.2 million shares of common stock
outstanding. Additionally, we had $19.0 million in cash and cash
equivalents which is sufficient to meet our short-term operating cash
needs. If necessary, we have access to $114 million under our
available line of credit and are authorized to issue 100 million shares of
common stock and 100 million shares of preferred stock. The market
value of our outstanding common stock since our initial public offering has
exceeded our book value; accordingly, we believe that if needed we can access
public markets to raise additional capital. Our capital structure
allows us to support our internal growth and provides liquidity for corporate
development initiatives.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
We have
no off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of
Regulation S-K.

Includes
the annual interest expense on our convertible debentures of 2.25%, which
is paid semi-annually. These amounts assume the June 2010 put
option is exercised on the $30.5 million of 2.25% convertible subordinated
notes outstanding issued in May 2003. Also includes the
expected interest expense on the $121.0 million outstanding on our line of
credit based upon the period end weighted average interest rate of 3.7%,
which includes the impact of our interest rate swaps
outstanding. See Note 6 – “Long-Term Debt” of the Notes to the

return earned on pension plan assets is not sufficient to fund the rate of
increase of our pension liability. As of January 2, 2009, the
latest measurement date, our actuarially determined pension liability
exceeded the plans assets by $6.0 million. In order to reduce this
underfunded status, we made a $1.4 million cash contribution to one of our
pension plans in July 2009.

The above
table does not reflect $4.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits as we are
uncertain as to if or when such amounts may be settled. Refer to Note
11 – “Income Taxes” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements for additional information about these unrecognized tax
benefits.
Litigation
We are
party to various legal actions arising in the normal course of
business. While we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of any
such pending activities will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated
results of operations, financial position or cash flows, litigation is subject
to inherent uncertainties. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur,
there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact in the period in which
the ruling occurs.
As
previously reported, on June 12, 2006, Enpath Medical, Inc. (“Enpath”), a
subsidiary of the Company that has since been merged into Greatbatch Ltd., was
named as defendant in a patent infringement action filed by Pressure Products
Medical Supplies, Inc. (“Pressure Products”) in which Pressure Products alleged
that Enpath’s FlowGuard™ valved introducer, which has been on the market for
more than four years, and Enpath’s ViaSeal™ prototype introducer, which has not
been sold, infringes claims in Pressure Products patents. After
trial, a jury found that Enpath infringed the Pressure Products patents, but not
willfully, and awarded damages in the amount of $1.1 million. The
Company has appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit, and oral arguments were heard before that tribunal on April 21,
2009. As a result of a post-trial motion and pending the appeal, the
Company is permitted to continue to sell FlowGuard™ provided that it pays into
an escrow fund a royalty of between $1.50 and $2.25 for each sale of a
FlowGuard™ valved introducer. The amount accrued as escrow during the
second quarter of 2009 was $0.2 million and $1.2 million in total as of July 3,
2009.
During
2002, a former non-medical customer commenced an action alleging that Greatbatch
had used proprietary information of the customer to develop certain
products. We believe the Company has meritorious defenses and are
vigorously defending the matter. The matter is scheduled for trial
during the third quarter of 2009. The estimated potential risk of
loss is up to $2.5 million.
Inflation
We
utilize certain critical raw materials (including precious metals) in our
products that we obtain from a limited number of suppliers due to the
technically challenging requirements of the supplied product and/or the lengthy
process required to qualify these materials with our customers. We
cannot quickly establish additional or replacement suppliers for these materials
because of these requirements. Our results may be negatively impacted
by an increase in the price of these critical raw materials. This
risk is partially mitigated as many of the supply agreements with our customers
allow us to partially adjust prices for the impact of any raw material price
increases and the supply agreements with our vendors have final one-time buy
clauses to meet a long-term need. Historically, raw material price
increases have not materially impacted our results of
operations.

Impact of Recently Issued
Accounting Standards
In June
2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.
168, “The FASB Accounting
Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.” SFAS No. 168
stipulates that the FASB Accounting Standards Codification is the source of
authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental
entities. SFAS No. 168 is effective for financial statements issued
for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The
implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on our
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation
No. 46(R).” SFAS No. 167 amends the consolidation guidance applicable to
variable interest entities and affects the overall consolidation analysis under
FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). SFAS No. 167 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2009. We are currently assessing the
impact of SFAS No. 167 on the Company’s consolidated financial position and
results of operations.
In
December 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers' Disclosures about
Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets.” This FSP provides
guidance on disclosures about plan assets of defined benefit pension or other
postretirement plans and requires more transparency about the assets held by
retirement plans and the concentrations of risk in those plans. This
FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2009. We will make the disclosures required by this FSP beginning in
fiscal year 2010.
Application of Critical
Accounting Estimates
Our
unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are based on the selection
of accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates,
some of which require management to make significant assumptions. We
believe that some of the more critical estimates and related assumptions that
affect our financial condition and results of operations are in the areas of
inventories, goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets, tangible
long-lived assets, share-based compensation and income taxes. For
further information, refer to Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Item 8 “Financial Statements
and Supplementary Data” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
January 2, 2009. During the three months ended July 3, 2009, we did
not change or adopt any new accounting policies that had a material effect on
our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
During
the first quarter of 2009, we were required to adopt FSP APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments that May be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement).” This FSP requires issuers of convertible debt
instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, such as our CSN II as
described in Note 6 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, to
separately account for the liability and equity components of those instruments
in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate
when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. As a result,
we first determined the carrying amount of the liability component of CSN II by
measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have the
associated conversion option. The carrying amount of the conversion option
was then determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from
the initial proceeds received from the issuance of CSN II. The carrying
amount of the conversion option was recorded as Additional Paid-In Capital with
an offset to Long-Term Debt. The carrying amount of the conversion
option is being amortized to Interest Expense using the effective interest rate
method over the expected life of a similar liability that does not have the
associated conversion option.
Deferred
financing fees incurred in connection with the issuance of CSN II, previously
recorded as Other Assets, were allocated to the liability and equity
components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds between the liability and
equity components. The deferred financing fees allocated to the debt
component are being amortized to Interest Expense over the expected life of
CSN II. The deferred financing fees allocated to the equity
component were recorded as an offset to Stockholders’
Equity.
- 40
-
This FSP
requires retrospective restatement for all prior periods presented in financial
statements. Accordingly, the 2008 Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements presented in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect
the accounting for FSP APB 14-1 as if it were in effect as of the date CSN II
was originally issued. See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements for information on the impact of FSP APB 14-1 on the 2008
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Forward-Looking
Statements
Some of
the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other written
and oral statements made from time to time by us and our representatives are not
statements of historical or current fact. As such, they are
“forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. We have based these forward-looking statements on our
current expectations, which are subject to known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and assumptions. They include statements relating
to:
|
•
|
future
sales, expenses and profitability;
|
|
•
|
the
future development and expected growth of our business and the markets we
operate in;
|
|
•
|
our
ability to successfully execute our business model and our business
strategy;
|
|
•
|
our
ability to identify trends within the implantable medical devices, medical
components, and Electrochem markets and to offer products and services
that meet the changing needs of those
markets;
|
|
•
|
projected
capital expenditures; and
|
|
•
|
trends
in government regulation.
|
You can
identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,”
“should,” “could,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,”
“estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these
terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only
predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially from
those suggested by these forward-looking statements. In evaluating
these statements and our prospects generally, you should carefully consider the
factors set forth below. All forward-looking statements attributable
to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety
by these cautionary factors and to others contained throughout this
report. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking
statements after the date of this report or to conform these statements to
actual results.
Although
it is not possible to create a comprehensive list of all factors that may cause
actual results to differ from the results expressed or implied by our
forward-looking statements or that may affect our future results, some of these
factors include the following: dependence upon a limited number of customers,
product obsolescence, inability to market current or future products, pricing
pressure from customers, reliance on third party suppliers for raw materials,
products and subcomponents, fluctuating operating results, inability to maintain
high quality standards for our products, challenges to our intellectual property
rights, product liability claims, inability to successfully consummate and
integrate acquisitions, unsuccessful expansion into new markets, competition,
inability to obtain licenses to key technology, regulatory changes or
consolidation in the healthcare industry, and other risks and uncertainties that
arise from time to time as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
and other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We have
significant foreign operations in France, Mexico and Switzerland, which exposes
the Company to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations due to transactions
denominated in Euros, Pesos and Swiss Francs, respectively. We
continuously evaluate our foreign currency risk and will take action from time
to time in order to best mitigate these risks, which includes the use of various
derivative instruments such as forward currency exchange contracts. A
hypothetical 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to our most
significant foreign currency exposures would have had an impact of approximately
$9 million on our annual sales. This amount is not indicative of the
hypothetical net earnings impact due to partially offsetting impacts on cost of
sales and operating expenses in those currencies. We estimate that
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations during the first two quarters of
2009, reduced sales in comparison to 2008 by approximately $4
million.
In
December 2007, we entered into a forward contract to purchase 80,000,000 CHF, at
an exchange rate of 1.1389 CHF per one U.S. dollar, in order to partially fund
the acquisition of Precimed, which closed in January 2008 and was payable in
Swiss Francs. In January 2008, we entered into an additional forward
contract to purchase 20,000,000 CHF at an exchange rate of 1.1156 per one U.S.
dollar. We entered into a similar foreign exchange contract in
January 2008 in order to fund the acquisition of the Chaumont Facility, which
closed in February 2008 and was payable in Euros. The net result of the
above transactions was a gain of $2.4 million, $1.6 million of which was
recorded in 2008 as Other Income.
In
February 2009, we entered into a forward contract to purchase 10 million Mexican
pesos per month from March 2009 to December 2009 at an exchange rate of 14.85
pesos per one U.S. dollar. This contract was entered into in order to
hedge the risk of peso-denominated payments associated with the operations at
the Company’s Tijuana, Mexico facility. This contract was accounted
for as a cash flow hedge and had a fair value of $0.4 million as of July 3,
2009.
We
translate all assets and liabilities of our foreign operations of Precimed and
the Chaumont Facility at the period-end exchange rate and translate sales and
expenses at the average exchange rates in effect during the
period. The net effect of these translation adjustments is recorded
in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as Comprehensive Income
(Loss). The translation adjustment for the first two quarters of 2009
was a $0.02 million gain. The aggregate translation adjustment as of
July 3, 2009 is a loss of $0.2 million. Translation adjustments are
not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to permanent investments in our
foreign subsidiaries. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses
included in Other (Income) Expense, Net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements
of Operations and Comprehensive Income amounted to a gain of $0.6 million during
the second quarter of 2009 and gain of $0.5 million during the first six months
of 2009. A hypothetical 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar in
relation to our most significant foreign currency net assets would have had an
impact of approximately $9 million on our foreign net assets as of July 3,
2009.
At July
3, 2009, we had $121.0 million outstanding debt under our revolving line of
credit that bears interest at fluctuating market rates based upon the LIBOR
rate, thus exposing the Company to interest rate fluctuations. To
help mitigate this risk, during 2008, we entered into three notional receive
floating-pay fixed interest rate swaps indexed to the six-month LIBOR
rate. The objective of these swaps is to hedge against potential
changes in cash flows on the portion of our revolving line of credit indexed to
the six-month LIBOR rate. No credit risk was hedged. The
receive variable leg of the swap and the variable rate paid on the revolving
line of credit bear the same rate of interest, excluding the credit spread, and
reset and pay interest on the same dates.

The
estimated fair value of the interest rate swap agreements represents the amount
the Company expects to pay to terminate the contracts. No portion of
the change in fair value of the interest rate swaps during the first six months
of 2009 was considered ineffective. The amount recorded as additional
interest expense during the first six months of 2009 related to interest rate
swaps was $0.5 million.
A
hypothetical 10% change in the LIBOR interest rate to the remaining $23 million
of floating rate debt would have had an impact of approximately $0.05 million on
our annual interest expense. This amount is not indicative of the
hypothetical net earnings impact due to partially offsetting impacts on our
short-term investments and cash and cash equivalents to interest
income.
ITEM
4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
a.
|
Evaluation of
Disclosure Controls and
Procedures.
|
Our
management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) related to
the recording, processing, summarization and reporting of information in our
reports that we file with the SEC as of July 3, 2009. These
disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable
assurance that material information relating to us, including our subsidiaries,
is made known to our management, including these officers, by other of our
employees, and that this information is recorded, processed, summarized,
evaluated and reported, as applicable, within the time periods specified in the
SEC’s rules and forms.
Based on
their evaluation, as of July 3, 2009, our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective.
b. Changes in Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting.
We
completed the following acquisitions during 2008:
|
·
|
P
Medical Holding SA on January 7,
2008
|
|
·
|
DePuy
Orthopaedics’ Chaumont, France manufacturing facility on February 11,
2008
|
We
believe that the internal controls and procedures of the above mentioned
acquisitions are reasonably likely to have materially affected our internal
control over financial reporting for the quarter in which they occurred and
thereafter. We are currently in the process of incorporating the
internal controls and procedures of these acquisitions into our internal
controls over financial reporting.
- 43
-
The
Company continues to extend its Section 404 compliance program under the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”) and the applicable rules and regulations
under such Act to include these acquisitions. However, the Company
excluded the 2008 acquisitions listed above from management’s assessment of the
effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of January 2,
2009, as permitted by the guidance issued by the Office of the Chief Accountant
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company will report on
its assessment of the internal controls of its combined operations within the
time period provided by the Act and the applicable SEC rules and regulations
concerning business combinations.
There
were no other changes in the registrant’s internal control over financial
reporting during our last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal
control over financial reporting, other than the above mentioned
acquisitions.
