Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is a combined quarterly report being filed
separately by Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and Prestige Brands International
LLC, both Registrants. Prestige Brands International, LLC, an indirect

company of Prestige Brands International, LLC, Prestige Brands Holdings,
Inc.

information for Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. and Prestige Brands
International, LLC is identical for the purposes of the discussion of operating
results in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Prestige
Brands Holdings, Inc.
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements
1.
|
Business
and Basis of Presentation
|
Nature of Business
Prestige
Brands Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) are engaged in the
marketing, sales and distribution of over-the-counter drug, personal care
and
household cleaning brands to mass merchandisers, drug stores, supermarkets
and
club stores primarily in the United States and Canada.
Basis of Presentation
The
unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 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 and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements
include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments that
are
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods.
Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 are not
necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending
March
31, 2007. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the
Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to
make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of
the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based
on the
Company’s knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake
in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed
below, the Company’s most significant estimates include those made in connection
with the valuation of intangible assets, sales returns and allowances, trade
promotional allowances and inventory obsolescence.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term deposits and investments with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Substantially
all of
the Company’s cash is held by one bank located in Wyoming. The Company does not
believe that, as a result of this concentration, it is subject to any unusual
financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking
relationships.
Accounts
Receivable
The
Company extends non-interest bearing trade credit to its customers in the
ordinary course of business. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful
accounts receivable based upon historical collection experience and expected
collectibility of the accounts receivable. In
an
effort to reduce credit risk, the Company (i) has established credit limits
for
all of its customer relationships, (ii) performs ongoing credit evaluations
of
customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitors the payment history and aging of
customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitors open orders against an individual
customer’s outstanding receivable balance.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, where cost is determined by
using
the first-in, first-out method. The Company provides an allowance for slow
moving and obsolete inventory, whereby it reduces
inventories for the diminution of value, resulting from product obsolescence,
damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between
the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value. Factors utilized
in
the determination of estimated market value include (i) current sales data
and
historical return rates, (ii)
-6-
estimates
of future demand, (iii) competitive pricing pressures, (iv) new product
introductions, (v) product expiration dates, and (vi) component and packaging
obsolescence.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line
method based on the following estimated useful lives:
Years
|
||
Machinery
|
5
|
|
Computer
equipment
|
3
|
|
Furniture
and fixtures
|
7
|
|
Leasehold
improvements
|
5
|
Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset
is
sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and associated accumulated depreciation
are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized
in
the consolidated statement of operations.
Property
and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be
recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the
asset exceeds its fair value.
Goodwill
The
excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of assets acquired
and
liabilities assumed in purchase business combinations is classified as goodwill.
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (“Statement”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets,” the Company does not amortize goodwill, but performs
impairment tests of the carrying value at least annually. The Company tests
goodwill for impairment at the “brand” level, which is one level below the
operating segment level.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets
with finite lives, amortization is computed on the straight-line method over
estimated useful lives ranging from five to 30 years.
Indefinite
lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually, while
intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever
events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets
may
not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount
of
the asset exceeds its fair value.
Deferred
Financing Costs
The
Company has incurred debt issuance costs in connection with its long-term
debt.
These costs are capitalized as deferred financing costs and amortized using
the
effective interest method over the term of the related debt.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues
are recognized in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting Bulletin 104, “Revenue Recognition,” when the following criteria are
met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the product has
been
shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss; (3) the
selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting
receivable is reasonably assured. The Company has determined that the transfer
of risk of loss generally occurs when product is received by the customer
and,
accordingly, recognizes revenue at that time. Provision is made for estimated
discounts related to customer payment terms and estimated product returns
at the
time of sale based on the Company’s historical experience.
As
is
customary in the consumer products industry, the
Company participates
in the
promotional programs of its customers to enhance the sale of its products.
The
cost
of these promotional programs varies based on the actual number of units
sold
during a finite period of time.
The
Company estimates the cost of such promotional programs at their inception
based
on historical experience and current market conditions and reduces sales
by such
estimates.
These
promotional programs consist of direct to consumer incentives such as
coupons
and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to the Company’s
customers, such as slotting fees and
-7-
cooperative
advertising. Estimates of the costs of these promotional programs are based
on
(i) historical sales experience, (ii) the current offering, (iii) forecasted
data, (iv) current market conditions, and (v) communication with customer
purchasing/marketing personnel. At
the
completion of the promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted
to
actual results.
Due
to
the nature of the consumer products industry, the Company is required to
estimate future product returns. Accordingly, the Company records an estimate
of
product returns concurrent with recording sales which is made after analyzing
(i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes
in
customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of the Company’s
product offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation,
packaging and advertising.
Costs
of Sales
Costs
of
sales include product costs, warehousing costs, inbound and outbound shipping
costs, and handling and storage costs. Shipping, warehousing and handling
costs
were $5.6 million and $5.5 million for the three month periods ended June
30,
2006 and 2005, respectively.
Advertising
and Promotion Costs
Advertising
and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Slotting fees associated with
products are recognized as a reduction of sales. Under slotting arrangements,
the retailers allow the Company’s products to be placed on the stores’ shelves
in exchange for such fees. Direct reimbursements of advertising costs are
reflected as a reduction of advertising costs in the period earned.
Stock-based
Compensation
The
Company adopted FASB, Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“Statement
No. 123(R)”), effective April 1, 2005, with the grants of restricted stock and
options to purchase common stock to employees and directors in accordance
with
the provisions of the Company’s 2005 Long-Term
Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Statement No. 123(R) requires the Company to
measure the cost of services to be rendered based on the grant-date fair
value
of the equity award. Compensation expense is to be recognized over the period
an
employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, generally
referred to as the requisite service period. The Company recorded a net non-cash
compensation credit of $9,000 during the three month period ended June 30,
2006
due to the reversal of compensation charges in the amount of $142,000 associated
with the departure of a former member of management. There were no stock-based
compensation charges incurred during the three month period ended June 30,
2005.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are recorded in accordance with the provisions of FASB Statement No.
109,
“Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement No. 109”). Pursuant to Statement No.
109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences
between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using
the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences
are
expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is established when necessary
to
reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
Derivative
Instruments
FASB
Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities” (“Statement No. 133”), requires companies to recognize derivative
instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair
value.
The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends
on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging
relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those
derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments,
a
company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being
hedged, as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment
in a foreign operation.
The
Company has designated its derivative financial instruments as cash flow
hedges
because they hedge exposure to variability in expected future cash flows
that
are attributable to interest rate risk. For these hedges, the effective portion
of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component
of
other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same
line item associated with the forecasted
-8-
transaction
in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects
earnings. Any ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative
instruments is recorded in results of operations immediately.
Earnings
Per Share
Basic
earnings per share is calculated based on income available to common
stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during
the
reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on income
available to common stockholders and the weighted-average number of common
and
potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Potential
common shares, composed of the incremental common shares issuable upon the
exercise of stock options and unvested restricted shares, are included in
the
earnings per share calculation to the extent that they are
dilutive.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying value of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable at June
30,
2006 and March 31, 2006 approximates fair value due to the short-term nature
of
these instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt at June 30, 2006
and
March 31, 2006 approximates fair value based on interest rates for instruments
with similar terms and maturities.
Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
In
November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(“SFAS”) No. 151, “Inventory Costs” (“Statement No. 151”). Statement No. 151
amended the guidance in Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4,
“Inventory Pricing”, and requires the exclusion of certain costs, such as
abnormal amounts of freight, handling costs and manufacturing overhead, from
inventories. Additionally, Statement No. 151 requires the allocation of fixed
production overhead to inventory based on normal capacity of the production
facilities. The provisions of Statement No. 151 are effective for costs incurred
during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of Statement
No.
151 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows for the three month period ended June 30,
2006.
In
June
2006, the FASB issued
FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes--an
interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”) which clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements
in accordance with FASB Statement 109. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006, and prescribes a recognition threshold
and
measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement
of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. While the
Company has not completed a comprehensive analysis of FIN 48, the adoption
of
FIN 48 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

The
Revolving Credit Facility and the Tranche B Term Loan Facility (together
the
“Senior Credit Facility”) contain various financial covenants, including
provisions that require the Company to maintain certain leverage ratios,
interest coverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios. The Senior Credit
Facility and the Senior Notes also contain provisions that restrict the Company
from undertaking specified corporate actions, such as asset dispositions,
acquisitions, dividend payments, repurchase of common shares outstanding,
changes of control, incurrence of indebtedness, creation of liens, making
of
loans and transactions with affiliates. Additionally, the Senior Credit Facility
and the Senior Notes contain cross-default provisions whereby a default pursuant
to the terms and conditions of either indebtedness will cause a default on
the
remaining indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with its applicable
financial and restrictive covenants under the Senior Credit Facility and
the
indenture governing the Senior Notes at June 30, 2006.

In
an
effort to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates, the Company entered
into interest rate cap agreements with various financial institutions. In
June
2004, the Company purchased a 5% interest rate cap with a notional amount
of
$20.0 million which expired in June 2006. In March 2005, the Company purchased
interest rate cap agreements with a total notional amount of $180.0 million
and
cap rates ranging from 3.25% to 3.75%. On May 31, 2006, an interest rate
cap
agreement with a notional amount of $50.0 million and a 3.25% cap rate expired.
The remaining agreements terminate on May 30, 2007 and 2008 as to notional
amounts of $80.0 million and $50.0 million, respectively. The Company is
accounting for the interest rate cap agreements as cash flow hedges. The
fair
value of the interest rate cap agreements, which is included in other long-term
assets, was $3.2 million and $3.3 million at June 30, 2006
and
March 31, 2006, respectively.
9. Stockholders’
Equity
The
Company is authorized to issue 250.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01
par
value per share, and 5.0 million shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value
per
share. The Board of Directors may direct the issuance of the undesignated
preferred stock in one or more series and determine preferences, privileges
and
restrictions thereof.
Each
share of common stock has the right to one vote on all matters submitted
to a
vote of stockholders. The holders of common stock are also entitled to receive
dividends whenever funds are legally available and when declared by the Board
of
Directors, subject to prior rights of holders of all classes of stock
outstanding having priority rights as to dividends. No dividends have been
declared or paid on the Company’s common stock through June 30,
2006.

30, 2006, 570,000 shares of restricted stock issued to management and employees
were unvested, and were therefore, excluded from the calculation of basic
earnings per share for the period ended June 30, 2006. However, such shares
are
included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. An additional
146,000
shares of restricted stock granted to management and employees have been
excluded from the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share
since
vesting of such shares is subject to contingencies. At June 30, 2005, 1.1
million shares of restricted stock issued to management were unvested and
were
therefore excluded from the calculation of basic earnings per share for the
period ended June 30, 2005.

|
Share-Based
Compensation
|
In
connection with the Company’s February 2005 initial public offering, the Board
of Directors adopted the Plan which provides for the grant, up to a maximum of
5.0 million shares, of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock
units,
deferred stock units and other equity-based awards. Directors, officers and
other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as others
performing services for the Company, are eligible for grants under the Plan.
The
Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees
with those of its stockholders.
Restricted
Shares
Restricted
shares granted under the plan generally vest in 3 to 5 years, contingent
on
attainment of Company performance goals, including both revenue and earnings
per
share growth targets. Certain restricted share awards provide for accelerated
vesting if there is a change of control. The fair value of nonvested restricted
shares is determined as the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the
day preceding the grant date.
Options
The
Plan
provides that the exercise price of the option granted shall be no less than
the
fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is
granted. Options granted have a term of no greater than 10 years from the
date
of grant and vest in accordance with a schedule determined at the time the
option is granted, generally 3 to 5 years. Certain option awards provide
for
accelerated vesting if there is a change in control.
-14-
The
fair
value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. As of June 30, 2006, there was approximately
$700,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested
share-based compensation arrangements under the Plan, based on management’s
estimate of the shares that will ultimately vest. The Company expects to
recognize such costs over the next 4.0 years. However, the restricted shares
vest upon the attainment of Company performance goals; if such goals are
not
met, no compensation cost would ultimately be recognized and any previously
recognized compensation cost would be reversed. At June 30, 2006, there were
4.8
million shares available for issuance under the Plan.
12. Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are recorded in the Company’s quarterly financial statements based on the
Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate. The effective rate used in
the calculation of income taxes was 39.1% for the three month periods ended
June
30, 2006 and 2005.
13. Commitments
and Contingencies
In
June
2003, Dr. Jason Theodosakis filed a lawsuit, Theodosakis v. Walgreens, et
al.,
in the United States District Court in Arizona, alleging that two of the
Company’s subsidiaries, Medtech Products Inc. and Pecos Pharmaceutical, Inc., as
well as other unrelated parties, infringed on the trade dress of two of his
published books. Specifically, Dr. Theodosakis published “The Arthritis Cure”
and “Maximizing the Arthritis Cure” regarding the use of dietary supplements to
treat arthritis patients. Dr. Theodosakis alleged that his books have a
distinctive trade dress, or cover layout, design, color and typeface, and
those
products that the defendants sold under the ARTHx trademarks infringed the
books’ trade dress and constituted unfair competition and false designation of
origin. Additionally, Dr. Theodosakis alleged that the defendants made false
endorsements of the products by referencing his books on the product packaging
and that the use of his name, books and trade dress invaded his right to
publicity. The Company sold the ARTHx trademarks, goodwill and inventory
to a
third party, Contract Pharmacal Corporation, in March 2003. On January 12,
2005,
the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment and dismissed all
claims against Medtech Products and Pecos Pharmaceutical. The plaintiff filed
an
appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals which was denied on March 28, 2006.
Subsequently, the plaintiff filed a petition for rehearing which was denied
on
June 30, 2006.
The
Company and certain of its officers and directors are defendants in a
consolidated putative securities class action lawsuit filed in the United
States
District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Consolidated
Action”). The first of the six consolidated cases was filed on August 3, 2005.
The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of stockholders of the Company
who
purchased shares between February 9, 2005 through November 15, 2005. The
plaintiffs also name as defendants the underwriters in the Company’s initial
public offering and a private equity fund that was a selling stockholder
in the
offering. The lead plaintiff filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint,
which
asserts claims under Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of
1933,
as amended, and Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of the Securities Exchange
Act of
1934, as amended, and in which the lead plaintiff generally alleges that
the
Company issued a series of materially false and misleading statements in
connection with its initial public offering and thereafter in regard to the
following areas: the accounting issues described in the Company’s press release
issued on or about November 15, 2005; and the alleged failure to disclose
that
demand for certain of the Company’s products was declining and that the Company
was planning to withdraw several products from the market. The plaintiffs
seek
an unspecified amount of damages. The Court recently dismissed all claims
against the Company and the individual defendants arising under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s management believes the remaining claims are
legally deficient and subject to meritorious defenses; however, the Company
cannot reasonably estimate the potential range of loss, if any.
On
September 6, 2005, another putative securities class action lawsuit
substantially similar to the initially-filed complaints in the Consolidated
Action described above was filed against the same defendants in the Circuit
Court of Cook County, Illinois (the “Chicago Action”). In light of the
first-filed Consolidated Action, proceedings in the Chicago Action were stayed,
and management has been informed that Plaintiffs’ counsel is considering a
-15-
voluntary
dismissal in light of the substantially similar Consolidated Action. The
Company’s management believes the allegations to be unfounded and will
vigorously pursue its defenses; however, the Company cannot reasonably estimate
the potential range of loss, if any.
On
May
23, 2006, Similasan Corporation filed a lawsuit against the Company in the
United States District Court for the District of Colorado in which Similasan
alleged false designation of origin, trademark and trade dress infringement,
and
deceptive trade practices by the Company related to Murine
for
Allergy Eye Relief, Murine
for
Tired Eye Relief and Murine
for
Earache Relief, as applicable. Similasan has requested injunctive relief,
an
accounting of profits and damages and litigation costs and attorneys’ fees. The
Company has filed an answer to the complaint with a potentially dispositive
motion. In addition to the lawsuit filed by Similasan in the U.S. District
Court
for the District of Colorado, the Company also received a cease and desist
letter from Swiss legal counsel to Similasan and its parent company, Similasan
AG, a Swiss company. In the cease and desist letter, Similasan and Similasan
AG
have alleged a breach of the Secrecy Agreement executed by the Company and
demanded that the Company cease and desist from (i) using confidential
information covered by the Secrecy Agreement; and (ii) manufacturing,
distributing, marketing or selling certain of its homeopathic products. On
July
24, 2006, the plaintiff in the Colorado action filed a motion for leave to
amend
its complaint in order to add allegations of misappropriation of trade secrets
and a breach of the Secrecy Agreement. The Company’s management believes the
allegations to be without merit and intends to vigorously pursue its defenses;
however, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential range of loss,
if
any.
The
Company is also involved from time to time in other routine legal matters
and
other claims incidental to its business. The Company reviews outstanding
claims
and proceedings internally and with external counsel as necessary to assess
the
probability of loss. These assessments are re-evaluated each quarter and
as new
information becomes available to determine whether a reserve should be
established or if any existing reserve should be adjusted. The actual cost
of
resolving a claim or proceeding ultimately may be substantially different
than
the amount of the recorded reserve. In addition, because it is not permissible
under generally accepted accounting principles to establish a litigation
reserve
until the loss is both probable and estimable, in some cases there may be
insufficient information to establish a reserve prior to the actual incurrence
of the loss (upon verdict and judgment at trial, for example, or in the case
of
a quickly negotiated settlement). The Company believes the resolution of
routine
matters and other incidental claims, taking into account reserves and insurance,
will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition
or
results of operations.
Lease
Commitments
The
Company has operating leases for office facilities in New York, New Jersey
and
Wyoming, which expire at various dates through April 9, 2009.

14. Concentrations
of Risk
The
Company’s sales are concentrated in the areas of over-the-counter pharmaceutical
products, personal care products and household cleaning products. The Company
sells its products to mass merchandisers, food and drug accounts, and dollar
and
club stores. During the three month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005,
approximately 59.2% and 60.8%, respectively, of the Company’s total sales were
derived from four of its brands. During three month periods ended June 30,
2006
and 2005, approximately 25.2% and 22.8%, respectively, of the Company’s net
sales were made to one customer. At June 30, 2006, approximately 21.9% of
accounts receivable were owed by the same customer.
-16-
The
Company manages product distribution in the continental United States through
a
main distribution center in St. Louis, Missouri. A serious disruption, such
as a
flood or fire, to the main distribution center could damage the Company’s
inventories and materially impair the Company’s ability to distribute its
products to customers in a timely manner or at a reasonable cost. The Company
could incur significantly higher costs and experience longer lead times
associated with the distribution of its products to its customers during
the
time that it takes the Company to reopen or replace its distribution center.
As
a result, any such disruption could have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s sales and profitability.
The
Company has relationships with over 40 third-party manufacturers. Of those,
the
top 10 manufacturers produced items that accounted for approximately 81%
of the
Company’s gross sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2006. The
Company does not have long-term contracts with 4 of these manufacturers and
certain manufacturers of various smaller brands, which collectively, represent
approximately 34% of the Company’s gross sales. The lack of manufacturing
agreements for these products exposes the Company to the risk that a
manufacturer could stop producing the Company’s products at any time, for any
reason or fail to provide the Company with the level of products the Company
needs to meet its customers’ demands. Without
adequate supplies of merchandise to sell to the Company’s customers, sales would
decrease materially and the Company’s business would suffer.
15. Business
Segments
Segment

Prestige
Brands International, LLC
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements
1.
|
Business
and Basis of Presentation
|
Nature of Business
Prestige
Brands International, LLC (“Prestige International” or the “Company”) is an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (“Prestige
Holdings”) and the indirect parent company of Prestige Brands, Inc., the issuer
of the 9.25% senior subordinated notes due 2012 (“Senior Notes”) and the
borrower under the senior credit facility consisting of a Revolving Credit
Facility and a Tranche B Term Loan Facility (together the “Senior Credit
Facility”). Prestige International is a holding company with no assets or
operations and is also the parent guarantor of the Senior Notes and Senior
Credit Facility. Prestige Holdings through its subsidiaries, is engaged in
the
marketing, sales and distribution of over-the-counter drug, personal care
and
household cleaning brands to mass merchandisers, drug stores, supermarkets
and
club stores primarily in the United States and Canada.
Basis of Presentation
The
unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 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 and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements
include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments that
are
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods.
Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 are not
necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending
March
31, 2007. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the
Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to
make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of
the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based
on the
Company’s knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake
in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed
below, the Company’s most significant estimates include those made in connection
with the valuation of intangible assets, sales returns and allowances, trade
promotional allowances and inventory obsolescence.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term deposits and investments with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Substantially
all of
the Company’s cash is held by one bank located in Wyoming. The Company does not
believe that, as a result of this concentration, it is subject to any unusual
financial risk beyond the normal risk associated with commercial banking
relationships.
Accounts
Receivable
The
Company extends non-interest bearing trade credit to its customers in the
ordinary course of business. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful
accounts receivable based upon historical collection experience and expected
collectibility of the accounts receivable. In
an
effort to reduce credit risk, the Company (i) has established credit limits
for
all of its customer relationships, (ii) performs ongoing credit evaluations
of
customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitors the payment history and aging of
customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitors open orders against an individual
customer’s outstanding receivable balance.

are stated at the lower of cost or fair value, where cost is determined by
using
the first-in, first-out method. The Company provides an allowance for slow
moving and obsolete inventory, whereby it reduces
inventories for the diminution of value, resulting from product obsolescence,
damage or other issues affecting marketability, equal to the difference between
the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value. Factors utilized
in
the determination of estimated market value include (i) current sales data
and
historical return rates, (ii) estimates of future demand, (iii) competitive
pricing pressures, (iv) new product introductions, (v) product expiration
dates,
and (vi) component and packaging obsolescence.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line
method based on the following estimated useful lives:
Years

Machinery

|

Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When an asset
is
sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and associated accumulated depreciation
are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized
in
the consolidated statement of operations.
Property
and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be
recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the
asset exceeds its fair value.
Goodwill
The
excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of assets acquired
and
liabilities assumed in purchase business combinations is classified as goodwill.
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (“Statement”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets,” the Company does not amortize goodwill, but performs
impairment tests of the carrying value at least annually. The Company tests
goodwill for impairment at the “brand” level, which is one level below the
operating segment level.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets
with finite lives, amortization is computed on the straight-line method over
estimated useful lives ranging from five to 30 years.
Indefinite
lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually, while
intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever
events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets
may
not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount
of
the asset exceeds its fair value.
Deferred
Financing Costs
The
Company has incurred debt issuance costs in connection with its long-term
debt.
These costs are capitalized as deferred financing costs and amortized using
the
effective interest method over the term of the related debt.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues
are recognized in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting Bulletin 104, “Revenue Recognition,” when the following criteria are
met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the product has
been
shipped and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss; (3) the
selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting
receivable is reasonably assured. The Company has determined that the transfer
of risk of loss generally occurs when product is received by the customer
and,
accordingly, recognizes revenue at that time. Provision is made for estimated
discounts related to customer payment terms and estimated product returns
at the
time of sale based on the Company’s historical experience.
-25-
As
is
customary in the consumer products industry, the
Company participates
in the
promotional programs of its customers to enhance the sale of its products.
The
cost
of these promotional programs varies based on the actual number of units
sold
during a finite period of time.
The
Company estimates the cost of such promotional programs at their inception
based
on historical experience and current market conditions and reduces sales
by such
estimates.
These
promotional programs consist of direct to consumer incentives such as
coupons
and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to the Company’s
customers, such as slotting fees and cooperative advertising. Estimates of
the
costs of these promotional programs are based on (i) historical sales
experience, (ii) the current offering, (iii) forecasted data, (iv) current
market conditions, and (v) communication with customer purchasing/marketing
personnel. At
the
completion of the promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted
to
actual results.
Due
to
the nature of the consumer products industry, the Company is required to
estimate future product returns. Accordingly, the Company records an estimate
of
product returns concurrent with recording sales which is made after analyzing
(i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes
in
customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of the Company’s
product offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation,
packaging and advertising.
Costs
of Sales
Costs
of
sales include product costs, warehousing costs, inbound and outbound shipping
costs, and handling and storage costs. Shipping, warehousing and handling
costs
were $5.6 million and $5.5 million for the three month periods ended June
30,
2006 and 2005, respectively.
Advertising
and Promotion Costs
Advertising
and promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Slotting fees associated with
products are recognized as a reduction of sales. Under slotting arrangements,
the retailers allow the Company’s products to be placed on the stores’ shelves
in exchange for such fees. Direct reimbursements of advertising costs are
reflected as a reduction of advertising costs in the period earned.
Stock-based
Compensation
In
connection with the Prestige
Holdings’
IPO, the
Board of Directors of Prestige Holdings adopted the 2005 Long-Term Equity
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for grants of stock options,
restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and other
equity-based awards. Directors, officers and other employees of Prestige
Holdings and its subsidiaries, as well as others performing services for
Prestige Holdings or its subsidiaries, are eligible for grants under the
Plan.
At June 30, 2006, there were 4.8 million shares available for issuance under
the
Plan.
The
Company adopted FASB, Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“Statement
No. 123(R)”), effective April 1, 2005, with the grants of restricted stock and
options to purchase common stock to employees and directors in accordance
with
the provisions of the Plan. Statement No. 123(R) requires the Company to
measure
the cost of services to be rendered based on the grant-date fair value of
the
equity award since the benefits, as well as the costs associated with these
relationships were contributed to the Company. Compensation expense is to
be
recognized over the period an employee is required to provide service in
exchange for the award, generally referred to as the requisite service period.
The Company recorded a net non-cash compensation credit of $9,000 during
the
three month period ended June 30, 2006 due to the reversal of compensation
charges in the amount of $142,000 associated with the departure of a former
member of management. There were no stock-based compensation charges incurred
during the three month period ended June 30, 2005.
Income
Taxes
Prestige
International is a limited liability company and by itself is not a taxable
entity. However, Prestige International’s operating subsidiaries are taxable
entities which are included in the consolidated corporate Federal income
tax
return of Prestige Holdings. Since Prestige Holdings is not an operating
entity,
and by itself would not incur any income tax liability, income taxes are
“pushed
down” and allocated to the various operating entities.
Accordingly,
income taxes are recorded by each subsidiary in accordance with the provisions
of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement No. 109”).
Pursuant to Statement No. 109, deferred tax
-26-
assets
and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates
and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
A
valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax
assets
to the amounts expected to be realized.
Derivative
Instruments
FASB
Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities” (“Statement No. 133”), requires companies to recognize derivative
instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair
value.
The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends
on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging
relationship and further, on the type of hedging relationship. For those
derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments,
a
company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being
hedged, as a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment
in a foreign operation.
The
Company has designated its derivative financial instruments as cash flow
hedges
because they hedge exposure to variability in expected future cash flows
that
are attributable to interest rate risk. For these hedges, the effective portion
of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component
of
other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same
line item associated with the forecasted transaction in the same period or
periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective
portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instruments is recorded in
results
of operations immediately.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying value of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable at June
30,
2006 and March 31, 2006 approximates fair value due to the short-term nature
of
these instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt at June 30, 2006
and
March 31, 2006 approximates fair value based on interest rates for instruments
with similar terms and maturities.
Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
In
November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(“SFAS”) No. 151, “Inventory Costs” (“Statement No. 151”). Statement No. 151
amended the guidance in Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4,
“Inventory Pricing”, and requires the exclusion of certain costs, such as
abnormal amounts of freight, handling costs and manufacturing overhead, from
inventories. Additionally, Statement No. 151 requires the allocation of fixed
production overhead to inventory based on normal capacity of the production
facilities. The provisions of Statement No. 151 are effective for costs incurred
during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of Statement
No.
151 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows for the three month period ended June 30,
2006.
In
June
2006, the FASB issued
FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes--an
interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”) which clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements
in accordance with FASB Statement 109. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006, and prescribes a recognition threshold
and
measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement
of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. While the
Company has not completed a comprehensive analysis of FIN 48, the adoption
of
FIN 48 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

The
Revolving Credit Facility and the Tranche B Term Loan Facility (together
the
“Senior Credit Facility”) contain various financial covenants, including
provisions that require the Company to maintain certain leverage ratios,
interest coverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios. The Senior Credit
Facility and the Senior Notes also contain provisions that restrict the Company
from undertaking specified corporate actions, such as asset dispositions,
acquisitions, dividend payments, repurchase of common shares outstanding,
changes of control, incurrence of indebtedness, creation of liens and
transactions with affiliates. Additionally, the Senior Credit Facility and
the
Senior Notes contain cross-default provisions whereby a default pursuant
to the
terms and conditions of either indebtedness will cause a default on the
remaining indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with its applicable
financial and restrictive covenants under the Senior Credit Facility and
the
indenture governing the Senior Notes at June 30, 2006.

In
an
effort to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates, the Company entered
into interest rate cap agreements with various financial institutions. In
June
2005, the Company purchased a 5% interest rate cap with a notional amount
of
$20.0 million which expired in June 2006. In March 2005, the Company purchased
interest rate cap agreements with a total notional amount of $180.0 million
and
cap rates ranging from 3.25% to 3.75%. On May 31, 2006, an interest rate
cap
agreement with a notional amount of $50.0 million and a 3.25% cap rate expired.
The remaining agreements terminate on May 30, 2007 and 2008 as to notional
amounts of $80.0 million and $50.0 million, respectively. The Company is
accounting for the interest rate cap agreements as cash flow hedges. The
fair
value of the interest rate cap agreements, which is included in other long-term
assets, was $3.2 million and $3.3 million at June 30, 2006
and
March 31, 2006, respectively.

Share-Based
Compensation
|
In
connection with the Prestige Holdings’ February 2005 initial public offering,
the Board of Directors of Prestige Holdings adopted the Plan which provides
for
the grant, up to a maximum of 5.0 million shares, of stock options, restricted
stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and other equity-based
awards. Directors, officers and other employees of Prestige Holdings and
its
subsidiaries, as well as others performing services for the Prestige Holdings
or
its subsidiaries, are eligible for grants under the Plan. Management of Prestige
Holdings and the Company believe that such awards better align the interests
of
their employees with those of their stockholders.
Restricted
Shares
Restricted
shares granted under the Plan generally vest in 3 to 5 years, contingent
on
attainment of Company performance goals, including both revenue and earnings
per
share growth targets. Certain restricted share awards provide for accelerated
vesting if there is a change of control. The fair value of nonvested restricted
shares is determined as the closing price of Prestige Holdings’ common stock on
the day preceding the grant date.
Options
The
Plan
provides that the exercise price of the option granted shall be no less than
the
fair market value of Prestige Holdings’ common stock on the date the option is
granted. Options granted have a term of no greater than 10 years from the
date
of grant and vest in accordance with a schedule determined at the time the
option is
-32-
granted,
generally 3 to 5 years. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting
if
there is a change in control.
The
fair
value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. As of June 30, 2006, there was approximately
$700,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested
share-based compensation arrangements under the Plan, based on management’s
estimate of the shares that will ultimately vest. The Company expects to
recognize such costs over the next 4.0 years. However, the restricted shares
vest upon the attainment of Company performance goals; if such goals are
not
met, no compensation cost would ultimately be recognized and any previously
recognized compensation cost would be reversed. At June 30, 2006, there were
4.8
million shares available for issuance under the Plan.
10. Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are recorded in the Company’s quarterly financial statements based on the
Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate. The effective rate used in
the calculation of income taxes was 39.1% for the three month periods ended
June
30, 2006 and 2005.
11. Commitments
and Contingencies
In
June
2003, Dr. Jason Theodosakis filed a lawsuit, Theodosakis v. Walgreens, et
al.,
in the United States District Court in Arizona, alleging that two of the
Company’s subsidiaries, Medtech Products Inc. and Pecos Pharmaceutical, Inc., as
well as other unrelated parties, infringed on the trade dress of two of his
published books. Specifically, Dr. Theodosakis published “The Arthritis Cure”
and “Maximizing the Arthritis Cure” regarding the use of dietary supplements to
treat arthritis patients. Dr. Theodosakis alleged that his books have a
distinctive trade dress, or cover layout, design, color and typeface, and
those
products that the defendants sold under the ARTHx trademarks infringed the
books’ trade dress and constituted unfair competition and false designation of
origin. Additionally, Dr. Theodosakis alleged that the defendants made false
endorsements of the products by referencing his books on the product packaging
and that the use of his name, books and trade dress invaded his right to
publicity. The Company sold the ARTHx trademarks, goodwill and inventory
to a
third party, Contract Pharmacal Corporation, in March 2003. On January 12,
2005,
the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment and dismissed all
claims against Medtech Products and Pecos Pharmaceutical. The plaintiff filed
an
appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals which was denied on March 28, 2006.
Subsequently, the plaintiff filed a petition for rehearing which was denied
on
June 30, 2006.
The
Company and certain of its officers and directors are defendants in a
consolidated putative securities class action lawsuit filed in the United
States
District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Consolidated
Action”). The first of the six consolidated cases was filed on August 3, 2005.
The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of stockholders of the Company
who
purchased shares between February 9, 2005 through November 15, 2005. The
plaintiffs also name as defendants the underwriters in the Company’s initial
public offering and a private equity fund that was a selling stockholder
in the
offering. The lead plaintiff filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint,
which
asserts claims under Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of
1933,
as amended, and Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of the Securities Exchange
Act of
1934, as amended, and in which the lead plaintiff generally alleges that
the
Company issued a series of materially false and misleading statements in
connection with its initial public offering and thereafter in regard to the
following areas: the accounting issues described in the Company’s press release
issued on or about November 15, 2005; and the alleged failure to disclose
that
demand for certain of the Company’s products was declining and that the Company
was planning to withdraw several products from the market. The plaintiffs
seek
an unspecified amount of damages. The Court recently dismissed all claims
against the Company and the individual defendants arising under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s management believes the remaining claims are
legally deficient and subject to meritorious defenses; however, the Company
cannot reasonably estimate the potential range of loss, if any.

On
September 6, 2005, another putative securities class action lawsuit
substantially similar to the initially-filed complaints in the Consolidated
Action described above was filed against the same defendants in the Circuit
Court of Cook County, Illinois (the “Chicago Action”). In light of the
first-filed Consolidated Action, proceedings in the Chicago Action were stayed,
and management has been informed that Plaintiffs’ counsel is considering a
voluntary dismissal in light of the substantially similar Consolidated Action.
The Company’s management believes the allegations to be unfounded and will
vigorously pursue its defenses; however, the Company cannot reasonably estimate
the potential range of loss, if any.
On
May
23, 2006, Similasan Corporation filed a lawsuit against the Company in the
United States District Court for the District of Colorado in which Similasan
alleged false designation of origin, trademark and trade dress infringement,
and
deceptive trade practices by the Company related to Murine
for
Allergy Eye Relief, Murine
for
Tired Eye Relief and Murine
for
Earache Relief, as applicable. Similasan has requested injunctive relief,
an
accounting of profits and damages and litigation costs and attorneys’ fees. The
Company has filed an answer to the complaint with a potentially dispositive
motion. In addition to the lawsuit filed by Similasan in the U.S. District
Court
for the District of Colorado, the Company also received a cease and desist
letter from Swiss legal counsel to Similasan and its parent company, Similasan
AG, a Swiss company. In the cease and desist letter, Similasan and Similasan
AG
have alleged a breach of the Secrecy Agreement executed by the Company and
demanded that the Company cease and desist from (i) using confidential
information covered by the Secrecy Agreement; and (ii) manufacturing,
distributing, marketing or selling certain of its homeopathic products. On
July
24, 2006, the plaintiff in the Colorado action filed a motion for leave to
amend
its complaint in order to add allegations of misappropriation of trade secrets
and a breach of the Secrecy Agreement. The Company’s management believes the
allegations to be without merit and intends to vigorously pursue its defenses;
however, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential range of loss,
if
any.
The
Company is also involved from time to time in other routine legal matters
and
other claims incidental to its business. The Company reviews outstanding
claims
and proceedings internally and with external counsel as necessary to assess
the
probability of loss. These assessments are re-evaluated each quarter and
as new
information becomes available to determine whether a reserve should be
established or if any existing reserve should be adjusted. The actual cost
of
resolving a claim or proceeding ultimately may be substantially different
than
the amount of the recorded reserve. In addition, because it is not permissible
under generally accepted accounting principles to establish a litigation
reserve
until the loss is both probable and estimable, in some cases there may be
insufficient information to establish a reserve prior to the actual incurrence
of the loss (upon verdict and judgment at trial, for example, or in the case
of
a quickly negotiated settlement). The Company believes the resolution of
routine
matters and other incidental claims, taking into account reserves and insurance,
will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition
or
results of operations.
Lease
Commitments
The
Company has operating leases for office facilities in New York, New Jersey
and
Wyoming, which expire at various dates through April 9, 2009.

12. Concentrations
of Risk
The
Company’s sales are concentrated in the areas of over-the-counter pharmaceutical
products, personal care products and household cleaning products. The Company
sells its products to mass merchandisers, food and drug accounts, and dollar
and
club stores. During the three month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005,
approximately 59.2% and 60.8%, respectively, of the Company’s total sales were
derived from four of its brands. During three month periods ended June 30,
2006
and 2005, approximately 25.2% and 22.8%, respectively, of the Company’s net
sales were made to one customer. At June 30, 2006, approximately 21.9% of
accounts receivable were owed by the same customer.
The
Company manages product distribution in the continental United States through
a
main distribution center in St. Louis, Missouri. A serious disruption, such
as a
flood or fire, to the main distribution center could damage the Company’s
inventories and materially impair the Company’s ability to distribute its
products to customers in a timely manner or at a reasonable cost. The Company
could incur significantly higher costs and experience longer lead times
associated with the distribution of its products to its customers during
the
time that it takes the Company to reopen or replace its distribution center.
As
a result, any such disruption could have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s sales and profitability.
The
Company has relationships with over 40 third-party manufacturers. Of those,
the
top 10 manufacturers produced items that accounted for approximately 81%
of the
Company’s gross sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2006. The
Company does not have long-term contracts with 4 of these manufacturers and
certain manufacturers of various smaller brands, which collectively, represent
approximately 34% of the Company’s gross sales. The lack of manufacturing
agreements for these products exposes the Company to the risk that a
manufacturer could stop producing the Company’s products at any time, for any
reason or fail to provide the Company with the level of products the Company
needs to meet its customers’ demands. Without
adequate supplies of merchandise to sell to the Company’s customers, sales would
decrease materially and the Company’s business would suffer.
13. Business
Segments
Segment
information has been prepared in accordance with FASB Statement No. 131,
“Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” The
Company’s operating and reportable segments consist of (i) Over-the-Counter

There
were no inter-segment sales or transfers during the three month periods ended
June 30, 2006 and 2005. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating
segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on contribution
margin.

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Prestige
Brands Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), as the indirect holding company of
Prestige Brands International, LLC (“Prestige International”) does not conduct
ongoing business operations. As a result, the financial information for the
Company and Prestige International is identical for the purposes of the
discussion of operating results in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Prestige International is
an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and an indirect parent company
of Prestige Brands, Inc., the issuer of our 9.25% senior subordinated notes
due
2012 (“Senior Notes”) and the borrower under the senior credit facility,
consisting of a Revolving Credit Facility and a Tranche B Term Loan Facility
(together the “Senior Credit Facility”). Prestige International is also the
parent guarantor of the Senior Notes and the Senior Credit
Facility.
We
are
engaged in the marketing, sales and distribution of brand name over-the-counter
drug, household cleaning and personal care products to mass merchandisers,
drug
stores, supermarkets and club stores primarily in the United States and Canada.
We operate in niche segments of these categories where we can use the strength
of our brands, our established retail distribution network, a low-cost operating
model and our experienced management team as a competitive advantage to grow
our
presence in these categories and, as a result, grow our sales and
profits.
We
have
grown our brand portfolio by acquiring strong and well-recognized brands
from
larger consumer products and pharmaceutical companies, as well as other brands
from smaller private companies. While the brands we have purchased from larger
consumer products and pharmaceutical companies have long histories of support
and brand development, we believe that at the time we acquired them they
were
considered “non-core” by their previous owners and did not benefit from the
focus of senior level management or strong marketing support. We believe
that
the brands we have purchased from smaller private companies have been
constrained by the limited resources of their prior owners. After acquiring
a
brand, we seek to increase its sales, market share and distribution in both
existing and new channels. We pursue this growth through increased spending
on
advertising and promotion, new marketing strategies, improved packaging and
formulations and innovative new products.
On
October 28, 2005, we completed the acquisition of the “Chore Boy®” brand of
cleaning pads and sponges. The purchase price of the Chore Boy® brand of $22.6
million, including direct costs of $400,000, has been allocated to indefinite
lived intangible assets and a covenant not-to-compete of $22.6 million and
$40,000, respectively. We purchased the Chore Boy® brand with funds generated
from operations.
On
November 8, 2005, we completed the acquisition of the ownership interests
of
Dental Concepts, LLC, a marketer of therapeutic oral care products sold under
“The Doctor’s®” brand. The purchase price of the ownership interests was
approximately $30.5 million, including fees and expenses of the acquisition
of
$500,000. We financed the acquisition price through the utilization of our
Revolving Credit Facility and with cash resources of $30.0 million and $500,000,
respectively.
We
expect
that both the Chore Boy® and The Doctor’s® product lines will continue to
benefit from our business model of outsourcing manufacturing and increasing
awareness though targeted marketing and advertising.

Three
Month Period Ended June 30, 2006 compared to the Three
Month
Period
Ended June 30,
2005
Total
Revenues
Total
revenues for the period ended June 30, 2006 were $75.9 million, compared
to
$63.5 million for the comparable period of 2005. This represented an increase
of
$12.4 million, or 19.7%, from the prior period. Excluding the impact of the
Chore Boy®
and The
Doctor’s®
brand,
which were acquired in October and November 2005, respectively, revenues
were up
8.4%. The Over-the-Counter Drug segment had revenues of $39.6 million for
the
period ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $6.2 million, or 18.6%, above
revenues of $33.4 million for the period ended June 30, 2005. The Household
Cleaning segment had revenues of $30.1 million for the period ended June
30,
2006, an increase of $7.3 million, or 31.9%, above revenues of $22.8 million
for
the period ended June 30, 2005. The Personal Care segment had revenues of
$6.2
million for the period ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $1.1 million, or
14.1%, below revenues of $7.3 million for the period ended June 30,
2005.
Over-the-Counter
Drug Segment
Total
revenues in the Over-the-Counter Drug segment were $39.6 million for the
period
ended June 30, 2006 versus $33.4 million for the comparable period of 2005.
This
represented an increase of $6.2 million, or 18.6%, from the prior period
ended
June 30, 2005. The revenue increase is primarily due to strong gains in Clear
eyes®,
Murine®
and
Compound W®.
In
addition, The Doctor’s®
brand
which was acquired with the Dental Concepts acquisition in November 2005,
contributed to the revenue growth in the period. Excluding sales related
to The
Doctor’s®
brand,
total revenues for this segment were up 9.3%. The Clear eyes®
sales
growth for the current period is a result of strong consumer consumption
trends
and the launch of a new item called Clear eyes®
Triple
Action. The increase in Murine®
revenues
is due primarily to the launch of three homeopathic eye and ear care products
and increased shipments to international customers. The increase in Compound
W®
revenue
is a result of improving consumer consumption trends in the current year.
Little
Remedies®’
revenues declined during the period as result of a weaker cough and cold
season
during the three month period ended March 31, 2006, which affected shipments
of
related product in the current period. Revenues of New Skin®
were
down for the period primarily as a result of continued softness in the liquid
bandage category, while sales of Chloroseptic®
were
flat period-to-period.
Personal
Care Segment
Total
revenues of the Personal Care segment were $6.2 million for the period ended
June 30, 2006 versus $7.3 million for the comparable period of 2005. This
represented a decrease of $1.1 million, or 14.1%, from the prior period.
The
sales decrease is a result of continued declines in consumer consumption
trends
for the Cutex®,
Denorex®
and
Prell®
brands.
Household
Cleaning Segment
Total
revenues of the Household Cleaning segment were $30.1 million for the period
ended June 30, 2006 versus $22.8 million for the comparable period of 2005.
This
represented an increase of $7.3 million, or 31.9%, from the prior
period.
Excluding
the acquisition of Chore Boy®,
revenues for this segment were up 14.3% for the period. The Comet®
brand
revenue increased during the quarter due to strong consumer consumption,
expanded distribution and royalty revenues from a licensing agreement in
Eastern
Europe. Revenues for the Spic and Span®
brand
increased during the quarter as a result of increased consumer consumption
and
expanded distribution of the citrus fragrance dilutable product and
antibacterial spray.
Gross
Profit
Gross
profit for the period ended June 30, 2006 was $39.6 million, compared to
$34.5
million for the comparable period of 2005. This represented an increase of
$5.1
million, or 14.8%, from the period ended June 30, 2005. The increase in gross
profit is a result of the increased sales activity, including both increases
in
volume and changes in product mix. Gross profit as a percent of sales was
52.2%
for the period ended June 30, 2006 versus 54.4% for the comparable period
of
2005. The decrease in gross profit percentage is generally the result of
higher
product, packaging and transportation costs experienced in the three month
period ended June 30, 2006 when
-39-
compared
to the three month period ended June 30, 2005. Additionally, during the period
ended June 30, 2006, the Household Cleaning segment, which has a lower gross
profit than the Over-the Counter segment, represented 39.6% of total revenues
as
compared to 35.9% of total revenues during the period ended June 30,
2005.
Over-the-Counter
Drug Segment
Gross
profit of the Over-the-Counter segment was $25.2 million for the period ended
June 30, 2006 versus $21.7 million for the comparable period of 2005. This
represented an increase of $3.5 million, or 16.0%, from the prior period.
Gross
profit as a percent of sales was 63.6% for the period ended June 30, 2006
versus
65.1% for the comparable period of 2005. The decrease in gross profit percentage
is primarily the result of higher packaging costs incurred and higher allowances
associated with international sales during the current period.
Personal
Care Segment
Gross
profit of the personal care segment was $2.5 million for the period ended
June
30, 2006 versus $3.4 million for the comparable period of 2005. This represented
a decrease of $901,000, or 26.8%, from the prior period. Gross profit as
a
percent of sales was 39.4% for the period ended June 30, 2006 versus 46.3%
for
the comparable period of 2005.
The
decrease in gross profit percentage is a result of increased promotional
pricing
allowances and product costs.
Household
Cleaning Segment
Gross
profit of the Household Cleaning segment was $11.9 million for the period
ended
June 30, 2006 versus $9.4 million for the comparable period of 2005. This
represented an increase of $2.5 million, or 26.7%, from the prior period.
Gross
profit as a percent of sales was 39.7% for the period ended June 30, 2006
versus
41.3% for the comparable period of 2005 primarily as a result of increased
product and transportation costs.
Contribution
Margin
Contribution
margin, defined as gross profit less advertising and promotional expenses,
was
$32.2 million for the period ended June 30, 2006 versus $25.8 million for
the
comparable period of 2005. This represented an increase of $6.4 million,
or
24.8%, from the prior period. The contribution margin increase is a result
of
changes in sales and gross profit as previously discussed and a $1.3 million
decrease in advertising and promotion spending versus the comparable period
in
2005. The decline in advertising and promotions spending is a result of lower
spending in the Over-the-Counter Drug and Personal Care segments.
Over-the-Counter
Drug Segment
Contribution
margin of the Over-the-Counter drug segment was $19.8 million for the period
ended June 30, 2006 versus $15.6 million for the comparable period of 2005.
The
contribution margin increase is a result of the gross profit increase as
previously discussed, as well as a $712,000 decrease in advertising and
promotion spending in the period ended June 30, 2006. The decrease in
advertising and promotion spending is primarily due to the timing of Clear
eyes®
advertising and promotional programs.
Personal
Care Segment
Contribution
margin of the personal care segment was $2.2 million for the period ended
June
30, 2006 versus $2.6 million for the comparable period of 2005. This represented
a decrease of $392,000, 15.3%, from the prior period. The contribution margin
decrease is primarily the result of the gross profit decline as previously
discussed, partially offset by a $509,000 reduction in advertising and promotion
spending versus the comparable period in 2005. The reduction in advertising
and
promotion is related to the reduction of national media support for
Cutex®
offset
by increased promotional pricing allowances which are recorded as a reduction
of
sales.
Household
Cleaning Segment
Contribution
margin of the Household Cleaning segment was $10.3 million for the period
ended
June 30, 2006 versus $7.7 million for the comparable period of 2005. This
represented an increase of $2.6 million, or 33.9%, from the prior period.
The
contribution margin increase is a result of the gross profit increase as
previously discussed and slightly lower levels of advertising and promotion
support. Advertising and promotion spending decreased by $82,000 versus the
comparable period of the prior year as we shifted our media spending to Chore
Boy®
and
lowered the media spending for Comet®.
-40-
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative expenses were $6.4 million for the period ended June 30,
2006
versus $4.9 million for the comparable period of 2005. The increase is primarily
related to additional staff added during the second half of fiscal 2006 and
severance compensation related to the departure of a member of management
during
the quarter.
Depreciation
and Amortization
Depreciation
and amortization expense was $2.4 million for the period ended June 30, 2006
versus $2.6 million for the comparable period of 2005. An increase in
amortization of intangible assets related to the Dental Concepts acquisition
was
offset by a reduction of the carrying value of trademarks related to the
Personal Care segment as a result of an asset impairment charge recorded
in the
three month period and fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.
Interest
Expense
Net
interest expense was $9.8 million for the period ended June 30, 2006 versus
$8.5
million for the comparable period of 2005. This represented an increase of
$1.3
million, or 15.1%, from the prior period. The increase in interest expense
is
due to the increase in interest rates associated with our variable rate
indebtedness. The average cost of funds increased from 6.9% at June 30, 2005
to
7.9 % at June 30, 2006.
Income
Taxes
The
income tax provision for the period ended June 30, 2006 was $5.3 million,
with
an effective rate of 39.1 %, compared to $3.8 million, with an effective
rate of
39.1% for period ended June 30, 2005.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We
have
financed and expect to continue to finance our operations with a combination
of
internally generated funds and borrowings. In February 2005, we completed
an
initial public offering that provided the Company with net proceeds of $416.8
million which were used to repay $184.0 million of indebtedness, to repurchase
common stock held by the GTCR funds and the TCW/Crescent funds, and to redeem
all of the outstanding senior preferred units and class B preferred units
held
by previous investors in Prestige International Holdings, LLC, the
predecessor-in-interest to Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. Our principal uses
of
cash are for operating expenses, debt service, acquisitions, working capital
and
capital expenditures.

Net
cash
provided by operating activities was $21.5 million for period ended June
30,
2006 compared to $9.8 million for the period ended June 30, 2005. The $11.7
million increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily
the
result of the following:
· |
An
increase of net income of $2.3 million from $5.9 million for the
period
ended June 30, 2005 to $8.2 million for the period ended June 30,
2006,
|
· |
A
decrease in non-cash expenses of $467,000 for the period ended June
30,
2006 compared to the period ended June 30, 2005,
and
|
· |
An
increase in cash provided by changes in the components of working
capital
for the period ended June 30, 2006 of $9.8 million over the period
ended
June 30, 2005.
|
Net
cash
used for investing activities was $297,000 for period ended June 30, 2006
compared to $206,000 for the period ended June 30, 2005. The net cash used
for
investing activities for the period ended June 30, 2006 was primarily the
result
of purchases of machinery and computer equipment, while during the period
ended
June 30,
-41-
2005,
cash was used primarily for the acquisition of leasehold improvements for
our
Irvington, New York headquarters.
Net
cash
used for financing activities was $7.9 million for the period ended June
30,
2006 compared to $995,000 for the period ended June 30, 2005. The
period-to-period increase was primarily the result of the repayment of the
remaining $7.0 million indebtedness related to our Revolving Credit Facility
which was drawn upon in November 2005 to fund the acquisition of Dental
Concepts, LLC.
Capital
Resources
On
February 15, 2005, our initial public offering of common stock resulted in
net
proceeds of $416.8 million. The proceeds were used to repay the $100.0 million
outstanding under the Tranche C Facility of our Senior Credit Facility and
to
redeem $84.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our existing 9.25%
Senior
Notes. Effective upon the completion of the IPO, we entered into an amendment
to
the credit agreement that, among other things, allows us to increase the
indebtedness under our Tranche B Term Loan Facility to $200.0 million and
allows
for an increase in our Revolving Credit Facility up to $60.0
million.
As
of
June 30, 2006, we had an aggregate of $490.7 million of outstanding
indebtedness, which consisted of the following:
· |
$364.7
million of borrowings under the Tranche B Term Loan Facility,
and
|
· |
$126.0
million of 9.25% Senior Notes due 2012.
|
We
had
$60.0 million of borrowing capacity available under the Revolving Credit
Facility at such time, as well as $200.0 million available under the Tranche
B
Term Loan Facility.
All
loans
under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at floating rates, based on
either the prime rate, or at our option, the LIBOR rate, plus an applicable
margin. As of June 30, 2006, an aggregate of $364.7 million was outstanding
under the Senior Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of
7.25%.
In
June
2004, we purchased a 5% interest rate cap agreement with a notional amount
of
$20.0 million which expired in June 2006. In March 2005, we purchased interest
rate cap agreements that became effective August 30, 2005, with a total notional
amount of $180.0 million and LIBOR cap rates ranging from 3.25% to 3.75%.
On May
31, 2006, an interest rate cap agreement with a notional amount of $50.0
million
and a 3.25% cap rate expired. The remaining interest rate cap agreements
terminate on May 30, 2007 and 2008 as to notional amounts of $80.0 million
and
$50.0 million, respectively. The fair value of the interest rate cap agreements
was $3.2 million at June 30, 2006.
The
Tranche B Term Loan Facility matures in October 2011. We must make quarterly
amortization payments on the Tranche B Term Loan Facility equal to $933,000,
representing 0.25% of the initial principal amount of the term loan. The
Revolving Credit Facility matures and the commitments relating to the Revolving
Credit Facility terminate in April 2009. The obligations under the Senior
Credit
Facility are guaranteed on a senior basis by Prestige Brands International,
LLC
and all of its domestic subsidiaries, other than the borrower (Prestige Brands,
Inc.), and are collateralized by substantially all of our assets.
The
Revolving Credit Facility and the Tranche B Term Loan Facility contain various
financial covenants, including provisions that require us to maintain certain
leverage ratios, interest coverage ratios and fixed charge coverage ratios.
The
Revolving Credit Facility and the Tranche B Term Loan Facility, as well as
the
Senior Notes contain provisions that accelerate our indebtedness on certain
changes in control and restrict us from undertaking specified corporate actions,
including, asset dispositions, acquisitions, payment of dividends and other
specified payments, repurchasing the Company’s equity securities in the public
markets, incurrence of indebtedness, creation of liens, making loans and
investments and transactions with affiliates. Specifically, we
must:
· |
have
a leverage ratio of less than 5.25 to 1.0 for the quarter ended June
30,
2006, decreasing
|
-42-
|
over
time to 3.75 to 1.0 for the quarter ending September 30, 2010,
and
remaining level thereafter,
|
· |
have
an interest coverage ratio of greater than 2.75 to 1.0 for the quarter
ended June 30, 2006, increasing over time to 3.25 to 1.0 for the
quarter
ending March 31, 2010, and
|
· |
have
a fixed charge coverage ratio of greater than 1.5 to 1.0 for the
quarter
ended June 30, 2006, and for each quarter thereafter until the quarter
ending March 31, 2011.
|
At
June
30, 2006, we were in compliance with the applicable financial and restrictive
covenants under the Senior Credit Facility and the indenture governing the
Senior Notes.
Our
principal sources of funds are anticipated to be cash flows from operating
activities and available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and
Tranche B Term Loan Facility. We believe that these funds will provide us with
sufficient liquidity and capital resources for us to meet our current and
future
financial obligations, as well as to provide funds for working capital, capital
expenditures and other needs for at least the next 12 months. We regularly
review acquisition opportunities and other potential strategic transactions,
which may require additional debt or equity financing. If additional financing
is required, there are no assurances that it will be available, or if available,
that it can be obtained on terms favorable to us or on a basis that is not
dilutive to our stockholders.

together, assuming scheduled principal payments (based on the terms
of the
loan agreements) were made and assuming a weighted average interest
rate
of 7.76%. Estimated interest obligations would be different under
different assumptions regarding interest rates or timing of principal
payments. If interest rates on borrowings with variable rates increased
by
1%, interest expense would increase approximately $3.6 million, in

Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
Company’s significant accounting policies are described in the notes of the
unaudited financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report
on
Form 10-Q, as well as in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March
31, 2006.
Both the
Company and Prestige Brands International, LLC utilize the same critical
accounting policies. While all significant accounting policies are important
to
our consolidated financial statements, certain of these policies may be viewed
as being critical. Such policies are those that are both most important to
the
portrayal of our financial condition and results from operations and require
our
most difficult, subjective and complex estimates and assumptions that affect
the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues,
-43-
expenses
or the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates
are based upon our historical experience and on various other assumptions
that
we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ
materially from these estimates under different conditions. The most critical
accounting policies are as follows:
Revenue
Recognition
We
comply
with the provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting
Bulletin 104 “Revenue Recognition,” which states that revenue should be
recognized when the following revenue recognition criteria are met: (1)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the product has been shipped
and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risk of loss; (3) the selling
price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable
is reasonably assured. We have determined that the transfer of risk of loss
generally occurs when product is received by the customer, and, accordingly
recognize revenue at that time. Provision
is made for estimated discounts related to customer payment terms and estimated
product returns at the time of sale based on our historical
experience.
As
is
customary in the consumer products industry, we participate in the promotional
programs of our customers to enhance the sale of our products. The
cost
of these promotional programs varies based on the actual number of units
sold
during a finite period of time. We estimate the cost of such promotional
programs at their inception based on historical experience and current market
conditions and reduce sales by such estimates. These
promotional programs consist of direct to consumer incentives such as coupons
and temporary price reductions, as well as incentives to our customers, such
as
slotting fees and cooperative advertising. We do not provide incentives to
customers for the acquisition of product in excess of normal inventory
quantities since such incentives increase the potential for future returns,
as
well as reduce sales in the subsequent fiscal periods.
Estimates
of costs of promotional programs are based on (i) historical sales experience,
(ii) the current offering, (iii) forecasted data, (iv) current market
conditions, and (v) communication with customer purchasing/marketing personnel.
At the completion of the promotional program, the estimated amounts are adjusted
to actual results. While our promotional expense for the year ended March
31,
2006 was $13.3 million, we participated in 4,700 promotional campaigns,
resulting in an average cost of $2,800 per campaign. Of such amount, only
845
payments were in excess of $5,000. We believe that the estimation methodologies
employed, combined with the nature of the promotional campaigns, makes the
likelihood remote that our obligation would be misstated by a material amount.
However, for illustrative purposes, had we underestimated the promotional
program rate by 10% for the three month period ended June 30, 2006, our sales
and operating income would have been adversely affected by approximately
$380,000 during the period.
We
also
periodically run couponing programs in Sunday newspaper inserts or as on-package
instant redeemable coupons. We utilize a national clearing house to process
coupons redeemed by customers. At the time a coupon is distributed, a provision
is made based upon historical redemption rates for that particular product,
information provided as a result of the clearing house’s experience with coupons
of similar dollar value, the length of time the coupon is valid, and the
seasonality of the coupon drop, among other factors. During the year ended
March
31, 2006, we had 20 coupon events. The amount expensed and accrued for these
events during the year was $2.7 million, of which $2.4 million was redeemed
during the year. During the period ended June 30, 2006, we had 4 coupon events.
The amount expensed and accrued for these events during the period ended
June
30, 2006 was $900,000, of which $200,000 was redeemed during the
period.
Allowances
for Product Returns
Due
to
the nature of the consumer products industry, we are required to estimate
future
product returns. Accordingly, we record an estimate of product returns
concurrent with the recording of sales. Such estimates are made after analyzing
(i) historical return rates, (ii) current economic trends, (iii) changes
in
customer demand, (iv) product acceptance, (v) seasonality of our product
offerings, and (vi) the impact of changes in product formulation, packaging
and
advertising.
We
construct our returns analysis by looking at the previous year’s return history
for each brand. Subsequently, each month, we estimate our current return
rate
based upon an average of the previous six months’ return rate and review that
calculated rate for reasonableness giving consideration to the other factors
described above. Our
-44-
historical
return rate has been relatively stable; for example, for the years ended
March
31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, returns represented 3.5%, 3.6% and 3.6%, respectively,
of gross sales. At June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006, the
allowance for sales returns was $1.8 million and $1.9 million,
respectively.
While
we
utilize the methodology described above to estimate product returns, actual
results may differ materially from our estimates, causing our future financial
results to be adversely affected. Among the factors that could cause a material
change in the estimated return rate would be significant unexpected returns
with
respect to a product or products that comprise a significant portion of our
revenues. Based upon the methodology described above and our actual returns’
experience, management believes the likelihood of such an event is remote.
As
noted, over the last three years, our actual product return rate has stayed
within a range of 3.5% to 3.6% of gross sales. An increase of 0.1% in our
estimated return rate as a percentage of sales would have adversely affected
our
reported sales and operating income for the period ended June 30, 2006 by
approximately $76,000.
Allowances
for Obsolete and Damaged Inventory
We
value
our inventory at the lower of cost or market value. Accordingly, we reduce
our
inventories for the diminution of value resulting from product obsolescence,
damage or other issues affecting marketability equal to the difference between
the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value. Factors utilized
in
the determination of estimated market value include (i) current sales data
and
historical return rates, (ii) estimates of future demand, (iii) competitive
pricing pressures, (iv) new product introductions, (v) product expiration
dates,
and (vi) component and packaging obsolescence.
Many
of
our products are subject to expiration dating. As a general rule our customers
will not accept goods with expiration dating of less than 12 months from
the
date of delivery. To monitor this risk, management utilizes a detailed
compilation of inventory with expiration dating between zero and 15 months
and
reserves for 100% of the cost of any item with expiration dating of 12 months
or
less. At June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006, the allowance for obsolete and
slow
moving inventory represented 4.2% and 3.0%, respectively, of total inventory.
A
1.0% increase in our allowance for obsolescence at June 30, 2006 would have
adversely affected our reported operating income for the three month period
ended June 30, 2006 by approximately $329,000. Inventory obsolescence costs
charged to operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2006 and
2005
were 0.8% and 0.1% of net sales, respectively.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
In
the
ordinary course of business, we grant non-interest bearing trade credit to
our
customers on normal credit terms. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts
receivable which is based upon our historical collection experience and expected
collectibility of the accounts receivable. In an effort to reduce our credit
risk, we (i) establish credit limits for all of our customer relationships,
(ii)
perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition, (iii)
monitor the payment history and aging of our customers’ receivables, and (iv)
monitor open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable
balance.
We
establish specific reserves for those accounts which file for bankruptcy,
have
no payment activity for 180 days or have reported major negative changes
to
their financial condition. The allowance for bad debts at June 30, 2006 and
March 31, 2006 amounted to 0.3% and 0.3%, respectively, of accounts receivable.
Bad debt expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 was $54,000,
or
0.1% of net sales. For the period ended June 30, 2005, we recorded net
recoveries of $7,000.
While
management believes that it is diligent in its evaluation of the adequacy
of the
allowance for doubtful accounts, an unexpected event, such as the bankruptcy
filing of a major customer, could have an adverse effect on our future financial
results. A 0.1% increase in our bad debt expense as a percentage of net sales
would have resulted in a decrease in operating income for the three month
period
ended June 30, 2006 of approximately $76,000.
Valuation
of Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Goodwill
and intangible assets amounted to $933.0 million and $935.1 million at June
30,
2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively. As of June 30, 2006, goodwill and
intangible assets were apportioned among our three operating segments as

Our

New-Skin®,
Chloraseptic® and
Compound
W® brands
comprised the majority of the value of the intangible assets within the
Over-The-Counter segment. Denorex®,
Cutex® and
Prell® comprised
substantially all of the intangible asset value within the Personal Care
segment. The Comet®,
Spic and Span® and
Chore
Boy® brands
comprised substantially all of the intangible asset value within the Household
Cleaning segment.
Goodwill
and intangible assets comprise substantially all of our assets. Goodwill
represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed in a purchase business combination. Intangible
assets generally represent our trademarks and brand names. When we acquire
a
brand, we are required to make judgments regarding the value assigned to
the
associated intangible assets, as well as their respective useful lives.
Management considers many factors, both prior to and after, the acquisition
of
an intangible asset in determining the value, as well as the useful life,
assigned to each intangible asset that the Company acquires or continues
to own
and promote. The most significant factors are:
· |
Brand
History
|
A
brand
that has been in existence for a long period of time (e.g.,
25,
50 or
100 years) generally warrants a higher valuation and longer life (sometimes
indefinite) than a brand that has been in existence for a very short period
of
time. A brand that has been in existence for an extended period of time
generally has been the subject of considerable investment by its previous
owner(s) to support product innovation and advertising and
promotion.
· |
Market
Position
|
Consumer
products that rank number one or two in their respective market generally
have
greater name recognition and are known as quality product offerings, which
warrant a higher valuation and longer life than products that lag in the
marketplace.
· |
Recent
and Projected Sales Growth
|
Recent
sales results present a snapshot as to how the brand has performed in the
most
recent time periods and represent another factor in the determination of
brand
value. In addition, projected sales growth provides information about the
strength and potential longevity of the brand. A brand that has both strong
current and projected sales generally warrants a higher valuation and a longer
life than a brand that has weak or declining sales. Similarly, consideration
is
given to the potential investment, in the form of advertising and promotion,
that is required to reinvigorate a brand that has fallen from
favor.
· |
History
of and Potential for Product
Extensions
|
Consideration
also is given to the product innovation that has occurred during the brand’s
history and the potential for continued product innovation that will determine
the brand’s future. Brands that can be continually enhanced by new product
offerings generally warrant a higher valuation and longer life than a brand
that
has always “followed the leader”.
-46-
To
assist
in the valuation process, management engages an independent valuation firm
to
provide an evaluation of the acquired intangibles. After consideration of
the
factors described above, as well as current economic conditions and changing
consumer behavior, management prepares a determination of the intangible’s value
and useful life based on its analysis of the requirements of Statements No.
141
and No. 142. Under Statement No. 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
assets are no longer amortized, but must be tested for impairment at least
annually. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their
respective estimated useful lives and must also be tested for
impairment.
On
an
annual basis, or more frequently if conditions indicate that the carrying
value
of the asset may not be recovered, management performs a review of both the
values and useful lives assigned to goodwill and intangible assets and tests
for
impairment.
Finite-Lived
Intangible Assets
As
mentioned above, management performs an annual review, or more frequently
if
necessary, to ascertain the impact of events and circumstances on the estimated
useful lives and carrying values of our trademarks and trade names. In
connection with this analysis, management:
· |
Reviews
period-to-period sales and profitability by
brand,
|
· |
Analyzes
industry trends and projects brand growth
rates,
|
· |
Prepares
annual sales forecasts,
|
· |
Evaluates
advertising effectiveness,
|
· |
Analyzes
gross margins,
|
· |
Reviews
contractual benefits or limitations,
|
· |
Monitors
competitors’ advertising spend and product
innovation,
|
· |
Prepares
projections to measure brand viability over the estimated useful
life of
the intangible asset, and
|
· |
Considers
the regulatory environment, as well as industry
litigation.
|
Should
analysis of any of the aforementioned factors warrant a change in the estimated
useful life of the intangible asset, management will reduce the estimated
useful
life and amortize the carrying value prospectively over the shorter remaining
useful life. Management’s projections are utilized to assimilate all of the
facts, circumstances and expectations related to the trademark or trade name
and
estimate the cash flows over its useful life. In the event that the long-term
projections indicate that the carrying value is in excess of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use of the intangible assets, management
is required to record an impairment charge. Once that analysis is completed,
a
discount rate is applied to the cash flows to estimate fair value. The
impairment charge is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the
intangible asset over fair value as calculated using the discounted cash
flow
analysis. Future events, such as competition, technological advances and
reductions in advertising support for our trademarks and trade names could
cause
subsequent evaluations to utilize different assumptions.
Indefinite-Lived
Intangible Assets
In
a
manner similar to finite-lived intangible assets, on an annual basis, or
more
frequently if necessary, management analyzes current events and circumstances
to
determine whether the indefinite life classification for a trademark or trade
name continues to be valid. Should circumstance warrant a finite life, the
carrying value of the intangible asset would then be amortized prospectively
over the estimated remaining useful life.
In
connection with this analysis, management also tests the indefinite-lived
intangible assets for impairment by comparing the carrying value of the
intangible asset to its estimated fair value. Since quoted market prices
are
seldom available for trademarks and trade names such as ours, we utilize
present
value techniques to estimate fair value.
Accordingly,
management’s
projections
are utilized to assimilate all of the facts, circumstances and expectations
related to the trademark or trade name and estimate the cash flows over its
useful life. In performing this analysis, management considers the same types
of
information as listed above in regards to finite-lived intangible assets.
Once
that analysis is completed, a discount rate is applied to the cash flows
to
estimate fair
-47-
value.
Future events, such as competition, technological advances and reductions
in
advertising support for our trademarks and trade names could cause subsequent
evaluations to utilize different assumptions.
Goodwill
As
part
of its annual test for impairment of goodwill, management estimates the
discounted cash flows of each reporting unit, which is at the brand level
and
one level below the operating segment level, to estimate their respective
fair
values. In performing this analysis, management considers the same types
of
information as listed above in regards to finite-lived intangible assets.
In the
event that the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value,
management would then be required to allocate the estimated fair value of
the
assets and liabilities of the reporting unit as if the unit was acquired
in a
business combination, thereby revaluing the carrying amount of goodwill.
In a
manner similar to indefinite-lived assets, future events, such as competition,
technological advances and reductions in advertising support for our trademarks
and trade names could cause subsequent evaluations to utilize different
assumptions.
In
estimating the value of trademarks and trade names, as well as goodwill,
at
March 31, 2006, management applied a discount rate of 10.3%, the Company’s
current weighted-average cost of funds, to the estimated cash flows; however
that rate, as well as future cash flows may be influenced by such factors,
including (i) changes in interest rates, (ii) rates of inflation, or (iii)
sales
or contribution margin reductions. In the event that the carrying value exceeded
the estimated fair value of either intangible assets or goodwill, we would
be
required to recognize an impairment charge. Additionally, continued decline
of
the fair value ascribed to an intangible asset or a reporting unit caused
by
external factors may require future impairment charges.
During
the three month period and fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, we recorded
non-cash charges related to the impairment of intangible assets and goodwill
of
the Personal Care segment of $7.4 million and $1.9 million, respectively,
because the carrying amounts of these “branded” assets exceeded their fair
market values primarily as a result of declining sales caused by product
competition. Should the related fair values of goodwill and intangible assets
continue to be adversely affected in 2007 as a result of declining sales
or
margins caused by competition, technological advances or reductions in
advertising and promotional expenses, the Company may be required to record
additional impairment charges.
Stock-Based
Compensation
During
2006, we adopted FASB Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“Statement
No. 123(R)”) with the initial grants of restricted stock and options to purchase
common stock to employees and directors in accordance with the provisions
of the
Plan. Statement
No. 123(R) requires us to measure the cost of services to be rendered based
on
the grant-date fair value of the equity award. Compensation expense is to
be
recognized over the period which an employee is required to provide service
in
exchange for the award, generally referred to as the requisite service period.
Information utilized in the determination of fair value includes the
following:
· |
Type
of instrument (i.e.: restricted shares vs. an option or
warrant),
|
· |
Strike
price of the instrument,
|
· |
Market
price of the Company’s common stock on the date of
grant,
|
· |
Discount
rates,
|
· |
Duration
of the instrument, and
|
· |
Volatility
of the Company’s common stock in the public
market.
|
Additionally,
management must estimate the expected attrition rate of the recipients to
enable
it to estimate the amount of non-cash compensation expense to be recorded
in our
financial statements. While management uses diligent analysis to estimate
the
respective variables, a change in assumptions or market conditions, as well
as
changes in the anticipated attrition rates, could have a significant impact
on
the future amounts recorded as non-cash compensation expense. During the
period
ended June 30, 2006, we recorded a net non-cash compensation credit of $9,000
as
a result of the reversal of compensation charges in the amount of $142,000
associated with the departure of a former member of management. No stock-based
compensation charges were incurred during the period ended June 30,
2005.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(“SFAS”) No. 151, “Inventory Costs” (“Statement No. 151”). Statement No. 151
amended the guidance in Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4,
“Inventory Pricing”, and requires the exclusion of certain costs, such as
abnormal amounts of freight, handling costs and manufacturing overhead, from
inventories. Additionally, Statement No. 151 requires the allocation of fixed
production overhead to inventory based on normal capacity of the production
facilities. The provisions of Statement No. 151 are effective for costs incurred
during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of Statement
No.
151 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows for the three month period ended June 30,
2006.
In
June
2006, the FASB issued
FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes--an
interpretation of FASB Statement 109” (“FIN 48”) which clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements
in accordance with FASB Statement 109. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006, and prescribes a recognition threshold
and
measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement
of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. While the
Company has not completed a comprehensive analysis of FIN 48, the adoption
of
FIN 48 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
Management
has reviewed and continues to monitor the actions of the various financial
and
regulatory reporting agencies and is currently not aware of any pronouncement
that could have a material impact on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
do not
have any off-balance sheet arrangements or financing activities with
special-purpose entities.
Inflation
Inflationary
factors such as increases in the costs of raw materials, packaging materials,
purchased product and overhead may adversely affect our operating results.
Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our
financial condition or results from operations for the periods referred to
above, a high rate of inflation in the future could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition or results from operations. The
recent increase in crude oil prices has had an adverse impact on transportation
costs, as well as, certain petroleum based raw materials and packaging material.
Although the Company takes efforts to minimize the impact of inflationary
factors, including raising prices to our customers, a high rate of pricing
volatility associated with crude oil supplies may have an adverse effect
on our
future operating results.
The
first
quarter of our fiscal year typically has the lowest level of revenue due
to the
seasonal nature of certain of our brands relative to the summer and winter
months. In addition, the first quarter is the least profitable quarter due
the
increased advertising and promotional spending to support those brands with
a
summer selling season, such as Compound W, Cutex and New Skin. The Company’s
advertising and promotional campaign in the third quarter influence sales
in the
fourth quarter winter months. Additionally, the fourth quarter has the lowest
level of advertising and promotional spending as a percent of
revenue.

CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “PSLRA”),
including, without limitation, information within Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The following
cautionary statements are being made pursuant to the provisions of the PSLRA
and
with the intention of obtaining the benefits of the “safe harbor” provisions of
the PSLRA. Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable
assumptions, actual results may differ materially from those in our
forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Except as required under federal securities laws and the rules and regulations
of the SEC, we do not have any intention to update any forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, readers
are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements included
in
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or that may be made elsewhere from time
to
time by, or on behalf of, us. All forward-looking statements attributable
to us
are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
Our
forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of words
or
phrases such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “will
be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” or other similar words and phrases.
Forward-looking statements and our plans and expectations are subject to
a
number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those anticipated, and our business in general is subject
to
such risks. For more information, see “Risk Factors” contained in Part I, Item
1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, our expectations or beliefs
concerning future events involve risks and uncertainties, including, without
limitation:
· |
general
economic conditions affecting our products and their respective
markets,
|
· |
the
high level of competition in our industry and
markets,
|
· |
our
dependence on a limited number of customers for a large portion of
our
sales,
|
· |
disruptions
in our distribution center,
|
· |
acquisitions
or other strategic transactions diverting managerial resources, or
incurrence of additional liabilities or integration problems associated
with such transactions,
|
· |
changing
consumer trends or pricing pressures which may cause us to lower
our
prices,
|
· |
increases
in supplier prices,
|
· |
increases
in transportation fees and fuel charges,
|
· |
changes
in our senior management team,
|
· |
our
ability to protect our intellectual property
rights,
|
· |
our
dependency on the reputation of our brand
names,
|
· |
shortages
of supply of sourced goods or interruptions in the manufacturing
of our
products,
|
· |
our
level of debt, and ability to service our
debt,
|

QUANTITATIVE
AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK
|
We
are
exposed to changes in interest rates because our senior credit facility is
variable rate debt. Interest rate changes, therefore, generally do not affect
the market value of such debt, but do impact the amount of our interest payments
and, therefore, our future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors
are
held constant. At June 30, 2006, we had variable rate debt of approximately
$364.7 million related to our Tranche B term loan.
In
an
effort to protect the Company from the adverse impact that rising interest
rates
would have on our variable rate debt, we have entered into various interest
rate
cap agreements to hedge this exposure. In June 2004, we purchased a 5% interest
rate cap agreement with a notional amount of $20.0 million which terminated
in
June 2006. In March 2005, we purchased interest rate cap agreements that
became
effective August 30, 2005, with a total notional amount of $180.0 million
and
LIBOR cap rates ranging from 3.25% to 3.75%. On May 31, 2006, an interest
rate
cap agreement with a notional amount of $50.0 million and a 3.25% cap rate
expired. The remaining interest rate cap agreements terminate on May 30,
2007
and 2008 as to notional amounts of $80.0 million and $50.0 million,
respectively.
Holding
other variables constant, including levels of indebtedness, a one percentage
point increase in interest rates on our variable rate debt would have an
adverse
impact on pre-tax earnings and cash flows for fiscal 2007 of approximately
$3.7
million. However, given the protection afforded by the interest rate cap
agreements, the impact of a one percentage point increase would be limited
to
$2.3 million. The
fair
value of the interest rate cap agreements was $3.2 million at June 30,
2006.

LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
|
In
June
2003, Dr. Jason Theodosakis filed a lawsuit, Theodosakis v. Walgreens, et
al.,
in the United States District Court in Arizona, alleging that two of the
Company’s subsidiaries, Medtech Products Inc. and Pecos Pharmaceutical, Inc., as
well as other unrelated parties, infringed on the trade dress of two of his
published books. Specifically, Dr. Theodosakis published “The Arthritis Cure”
and “Maximizing the Arthritis Cure” regarding the use of dietary supplements to
treat arthritis patients. Dr. Theodosakis alleged that his books have a
distinctive trade dress, or cover layout, design, color and typeface, and
those
products that the defendants sold under the ARTHx trademarks infringed the
books’ trade dress and constituted unfair competition and false designation of
origin. Additionally, Dr. Theodosakis alleged that the defendants made false
endorsements of the products by referencing his books on the product packaging
and that the use of his name, books and trade dress invaded his right to
publicity. The Company sold the ARTHx trademarks, goodwill and inventory
to a
third party, Contract Pharmacal Corporation, in March 2003. On January 12,
2005,
the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment and dismissed all
claims against Medtech Products and Pecos Pharmaceutical. The plaintiff filed
an
appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals which was denied on March 28, 2006.
Subsequently, the plaintiff filed a petition for rehearing which was denied
on
June 30, 2006.
The
Company and certain of its officers and directors are defendants in a
consolidated putative securities class action lawsuit filed in the United
States
District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Consolidated
Action”). The first of the six consolidated cases was filed on August 3, 2005.
The plaintiffs purport to represent a class of stockholders of the Company
who
purchased shares between February 9, 2005 through November 15, 2005. The
plaintiffs also name as defendants the underwriters in the Company’s initial
public offering and a private equity fund that was a selling stockholder
in the
offering. The lead plaintiff filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint,
which
asserts claims under Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of
1933,
as amended, and Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 20A of the Securities Exchange
Act of
1934, as amended, and in which the lead plaintiff generally alleges that
the
Company issued a series of materially false and misleading statements in
connection with its initial public offering and thereafter in regard to the
following areas: the accounting issues described in the Company’s press release
issued on or about November 15, 2005; and the alleged failure to disclose
that
demand for certain of the Company’s products was declining and that the Company
was planning to withdraw several products from the market. The plaintiffs
seek
an unspecified amount of damages. The Court recently dismissed all claims
against the Company and the individual defendants arising under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s management believes the remaining claims are
legally deficient and subject to meritorious defenses; however, the Company
cannot reasonably estimate the potential range of loss, if any.
On
September 6, 2005, another putative securities class action lawsuit
substantially similar to the initially-filed complaints in the Consolidated
Action described above was filed against the same defendants in the Circuit
Court of Cook County, Illinois (the “Chicago Action”). In light of the
first-filed Consolidated Action, proceedings in the Chicago Action were stayed,
and management has been informed that Plaintiffs’ counsel is considering a
voluntary dismissal in light of the substantially similar Consolidated Action.
The Company’s management believes the allegations to be unfounded and will
vigorously pursue its defenses; however, the Company cannot reasonably estimate
the potential range of loss, if any.
On
May
23, 2006, Similasan Corporation filed a lawsuit against the Company in the
United States District Court for the District of Colorado in which Similasan
alleged false designation of origin, trademark and trade dress infringement,
and
deceptive trade practices by the Company related to Murine
for
Allergy Eye Relief, Murine
for
Tired Eye Relief and Murine
for
Earache Relief, as applicable. Similasan has requested injunctive relief,
an
accounting of profits and damages and litigation costs and attorneys’ fees. The
Company has filed an answer to the complaint with a potentially dispositive
motion. In addition to the lawsuit filed by Similasan in the U.S. District
Court
for the District of Colorado, the Company also received a cease and desist
letter from Swiss legal counsel to Similasan and its parent company, Similasan
AG, a Swiss company. In the cease and desist letter, Similasan and Similasan
AG
have alleged a breach of the Secrecy Agreement executed by the Company and
demanded that the Company cease and desist from (i) using confidential
information covered by the Secrecy
-52-
Agreement;
and (ii) manufacturing, distributing, marketing or selling certain of its
homeopathic products. On July 24, 2006, the plaintiff in the Colorado action
filed a motion for leave to amend its complaint in order to add allegations
of
misappropriation of trade secrets and a breach of the Secrecy Agreement.
The
Company’s management believes the allegations to be without merit and intends to
vigorously pursue its defenses; however, the Company cannot reasonably estimate
the potential range of loss, if any.
The
Company is also involved from time to time in other routine legal matters
and
other claims incidental to its business. The Company reviews outstanding
claims
and proceedings internally and with external counsel as necessary to assess
the
probability of loss. These assessments are re-evaluated each quarter and
as new
information becomes available to determine whether a reserve should be
established or if any existing reserve should be adjusted. The actual cost
of
resolving a claim or proceeding ultimately may be substantially different
than
the amount of the recorded reserve. In addition, because it is not permissible
under generally accepted accounting principles to establish a litigation
reserve
until the loss is both probable and estimable, in some cases there may be
insufficient information to establish a reserve prior to the actual incurrence
of the loss (upon verdict and judgment at trial, for example, or in the case
of
a quickly negotiated settlement). The Company believes the resolution of
routine
matters and other incidental claims, taking into account reserves and insurance,
will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition
or
results of operations.
