Cautionary Statements

 

Certain of the statements contained in this Form 10-Q, as well as in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements subject to the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company cautions readers of this report that a number of important factors could cause the Company’s activities and/or actual results in fiscal 2006 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any such forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation: the Company’s dependence on vendors, product supply and availability, senior management, centralized functions and third-party shippers; the Company’s ability to compete successfully in a highly competitive market and to manage significant additions in personnel and increases in working capital; the Company’s ability to collect outstanding accounts receivable; the Company’s entry into new product markets in which it has no prior experience; the Company’s susceptibility to quarterly fluctuations in net sales and results of operations; the Company’s ability to manage successfully pricing or stock rotation opportunities associated with inventory value decreases; narrow profit margins; inventory risks due to shifts in market demand; dependence on information systems; credit exposure due to the deterioration in the financial condition of our customers; a downturn in the general economy; the inability to obtain required capital; potential adverse effects of acquisitions; fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and exposure to foreign markets; the imposition of governmental controls, currency devaluations, export license requirements and restrictions on the export of certain technology; dependence on third party freight forwarders and the third party warehouse in Europe; political instability, trade restrictions and tariff changes; difficulties in staffing and managing international operations; changes in the interpretation and enforcement of laws (in particular related to items such as duty and taxation); difficulties in collecting accounts receivable, longer collection periods and the impact of local economic conditions and practices; the impact of changes in income tax legislation; acts of war or terrorism; exposure to natural disasters; potential impact of labor strikes; volatility of the stock market; and the accuracy of forecast data; and other factors described herein and in other reports and documents filed by the Company with the SEC, including Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2005.

 

Additional discussion of these and other factors affecting our business and prospects is contained in our periodic filings with the SEC, copies of which can be obtained at the Investor Relations section of our website at www.scansource.com. We provide our annual and quarterly reports free of charge on www.scansource.com, as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of ScanSource, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, the results of operations for the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and statement of cash flows for the six month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The results of operations for the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005.

 

(2) Business Description

 

The Company is a leading wholesale distributor of specialty technology products, providing value-added distribution sales to resellers in the specialty technology markets. The Company has two geographic distribution segments: one serving North America from the Memphis, Tennessee distribution center, and an international segment currently serving Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe from distribution centers located in Florida and Mexico, and in Belgium, respectively. The North American distribution segment markets automatic identification and data capture (“AIDC”) and point-of-sale (“POS”) products through its ScanSource sales unit; voice, data and converged communications equipment through its Catalyst Telecom sales unit; voice, data and converged communications products through its Paracon sales unit; and electronic security products through its ScanSource Security Distribution unit. The international distribution segment markets AIDC and POS products through its ScanSource sales unit.

 

(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Consolidation Policy

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Minority Interest

 

Minority interest represents that portion of the net equity of majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company held by minority shareholders. The minority shareholders’ share of the subsidiaries’ income or loss is listed separately in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company acquired an additional 8% of Netpoint International, Inc. (“Netpoint”) and the remaining 12% of Outsourcing Unlimited, Inc. (“OUI”). The Company now owns 84% of Netpoint and 100% of OUI.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory reserves. Management bases its estimates on assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from

Table of Contents

SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, management believes that its estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable and that the actual results will not vary significantly from the estimated amounts.

 

The following significant accounting policies relate to the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:

 

(a) Allowances for Trade and Notes Receivable

 

The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from customers’ failure to make payments on accounts receivable due to the Company. Management determines the estimate of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including: (1) historical experience, (2) aging of the accounts receivable and (3) specific information obtained by the Company on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of its customers. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate and reduce the ability of the Company’s customers to make payments on their accounts, the Company may be required to increase its allowance by recording additional bad debt expense. Likewise, should the financial condition of the Company’s customers improve and result in payments or settlements of previously reserved amounts, the Company may be required to record a reduction in bad debt expense to reverse the recorded allowance. In addition, the Company maintains an allowance for credits to customers that will be applied against future purchases.

 

(b) Inventory Reserves

 

Management determines the inventory reserves required to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market based principally on the effects of technological changes, quantities of goods on hand, and other factors. An estimate is made of the market value, less costs to dispose, of products whose value is determined to be impaired. If these products are ultimately sold at less than estimated amounts, additional reserves may be required. Likewise, if these products are sold for more than the estimated amounts, reserves may be reduced.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Book overdrafts of $36,525,000 and $19,119,000 as of December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, respectively, are included in accounts payable.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s foreign currency exposure results from purchasing and selling internationally in several foreign currencies. In addition, the Company has foreign currency risk related to debt that is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments or multi-currency borrowings. The market risk related to the foreign exchange agreements is offset by changes in the valuation of the underlying items. The Company currently does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor is the Company a party to leveraged derivatives.

 

Derivative financial instruments are accounted for on an accrual basis with gains and losses on these contracts recorded in income in the period in which their value changes. These contracts are generally for a duration of 90 days or less. The Company has elected not to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments. They are, therefore, marked to market with changes in their value recorded in the consolidated income statement each period. The underlying exposures are denominated primarily in British Pounds, Euros, and Canadian Dollars. Summarized financial information related to these derivative contracts and changes in the underlying value of the foreign currency exposures follows:

Total

          $ (27,884 )
           


 

The notional amount of forward exchange contracts is the amount of foreign currency to be bought or sold at maturity. Notional amounts are indicative of the extent of the Company’s involvement in the various types and uses of derivative financial instruments and are not a measure of the Company’s exposure to credit or market risks through its use of derivatives. The estimated fair value of derivative financial instruments represents the amount required to enter into similar offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on quoted market prices.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories (consisting of AIDC, POS, business phone, converged communications equipment, and electronic security system products) are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

 

Vendor Programs

 

The Company receives incentives from vendors related to cooperative advertising allowances, volume rebates and other incentive agreements. These incentives are generally under quarterly, semi-annual or annual agreements with the vendors. Some of these incentives are negotiated on an ad hoc basis to support specific programs mutually developed between the Company and the vendor. Vendors generally require that we use their cooperative advertising allowances exclusively for advertising or other marketing programs. These restricted cooperative advertising allowances are recognized as a reduction of operating expenses as the related marketing expenses are incurred. EITF Issue No. 02-16, “Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor” (“EITF 02-16”) requires that a portion of these vendor funds be reclassified from operating expenses and recorded as a reduction of inventory. These reclassified funds are recognized as a reduction of the cost of products sold when the related inventory is sold.

The Company records unrestricted, volume rebates received as a reduction of inventory and as a reduction of the cost of products sold when the related inventory is sold. Amounts received or receivable from vendors that are not yet earned are deferred in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the Company may receive early payment discounts from certain vendors. The Company records early payment discounts received as a reduction of inventory and recognizes the discount as a reduction of cost of products sold when the related inventory is sold. EITF 02-16 requires management to make certain estimates of the amounts of vendor incentives that will be received. Actual recognition of the vendor consideration may vary from management estimates based on actual results.

 

Product Warranty

 

The Company’s vendors generally warrant the products distributed by the Company and allow the Company to return defective products, including those that have been returned to the Company by its customers. The Company does not independently warrant the products it distributes. However, to maintain customer relations, the Company facilitates vendor warranty policies by accepting for exchange, with the Company’s prior approval, most defective products within 30 days of invoicing.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years for furniture, equipment and computer software, 40 years for buildings and 15 years for building improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized.

 

For long-lived assets other than goodwill, if the sum of the expected cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.

 

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or may be impaired. The Company recognized charges of $0 for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005, and $0 and $30,000 for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004, respectively, in operating expenses for the impairment of certain capitalized software for the North American distribution segment. This software was no longer functional based on operational needs.

 

Deferred Taxes

 

Deferred taxes reflect future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization depends upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which temporary differences become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

 

Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired in acquisitions accounted for using the purchase method. With the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on July 1, 2001, the Company discontinued the amortization of goodwill. During fiscal years 2005 and 2004, the Company performed its annual test of goodwill to

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

determine if there was impairment. These tests included the determination of each reporting unit’s fair value using market multiples and discounted cash flows modeling. No impairment was required to be recorded related to the Company’s annual impairment testing under this pronouncement. In addition, the Company performs an impairment analysis for goodwill whenever indicators of impairment are present. No such indicators existed for the quarter ended December 31, 2005.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of its intangible assets with finite lives, which includes customer lists, debt issue costs, and non-compete agreements, as current events and circumstances warrant to determine whether there are any impairment losses. If indicators of impairment are present in intangible assets used in operations, and future cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the assets’ carrying amount, an impairment loss is charged to expense in the period identified. These assets are included in other assets. The customer lists are amortized using the straight-line method over a period of 5 years, which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are realized. The non-compete agreements were amortized over their contract life, and the debt issue costs are amortized over the term of the credit facility (see Note 8).

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of financial instruments is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying values of financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, the borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the subsidiary lines of credits approximate fair value, based upon either short maturities or variable interest rates of these instruments.

 

Contingencies

 

The Company accrues for contingent obligations, including estimated legal costs, when it is probable that a liability is incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. As facts concerning contingencies become known, management reassesses its position and makes appropriate adjustments to the financial statements. Estimates that are particularly sensitive to future changes include tax, legal, and other regulatory matters, which are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation process.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized once four criteria are met: (1) the Company must have persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery must occur, which happens at the point of shipment (this includes the transfer of both title and risk of loss, provided that no significant obligations remain); (3) the price must be fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility must be reasonably assured. A provision for estimated losses on returns is recorded at the time of sale based on historical experience.

 

The Company has service revenue associated with configuration and marketing, which is recognized when the work is complete and all obligations are substantially met. The Company also sells third-party services, such as maintenance contracts, and recognizes revenue net of cost at the time of sale. Revenue from multiple element arrangements is allocated to the various elements based on the relative fair value of the elements, and each revenue cycle is considered a separate accounting unit with recognition of revenue based on the criteria met for the individual element of the multiple deliverables.

 

Shipping Revenue and Costs

 

Shipping revenue is included in net sales and related costs are included in cost of goods sold. Shipping revenue for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 was $2.0 million and $ 4.1 million, respectively. Shipping revenue for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004 was $1.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

Advertising Costs

 

The Company defers advertising related costs until the advertising is first run in trade or other publications, or in the case of brochures, until the brochures are printed and available for distribution. Advertising costs, included in marketing costs, after vendor reimbursement, were not significant in the quarters or six months ended December 31, 2005 or 2004. Deferred advertising costs at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were not significant.

 

Foreign Currency

 

The currency effects of translating the financial statements of the Company’s foreign entities that operate in their local currency are included in the cumulative currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The assets and liabilities of these foreign entities are translated into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rate at the end of the respective period. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at average exchange rates effective during the respective period.

 

Foreign currency transactional and re-measurement gains and losses are included in other expense (income) in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. Such gains, net of losses, were $27,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and $258,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Such gains, net of losses, were $21,000 and $223,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2004.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Federal income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it has been the practice of the Company to reinvest those earnings in the business outside of the United States.

 

On October 22, 2004, The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 was enacted. This legislation provides a tax deduction of 85% of certain foreign subsidiary dividends that are repatriated by the Company. Presently, the Company has no plans to distribute earnings from its foreign subsidiaries under this legislation.

 

Share-Based Payment

 

At December 31, 2005, the Company has three stock-based employee compensation plans and a plan for its non-employee directors, which are more fully described in Note 7. Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company accounted for those plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. No stock-based employee compensation was recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004 as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to July 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement 123(R). A grant of 14,000 options occurred during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005. No share-based payment modifications occurred during such periods. Results for periods ended prior to July 1, 2005 quarter have not been restated.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

As a result of adopting Statement 123(R) on July 1, 2005, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 are $935,000 and $1,827,000 lower, respectively, than if the Company had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 would have been $0.79 and $0.77, respectively, if the Company had not adopted Statement 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.73 and 0.71, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2005 would have been $1.58 and $1.54, respectively, if the Company had not adopted Statement 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.47 and $1.42, respectively.

 

Prior to the adoption of Statement 123(R), the Company presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Statement 123(R) requires the cash flows from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. The $1,125,000 excess tax benefit classified as a financing cash inflow would have been classified as an operating cash inflow if the Company had not adopted Statement 123(R).

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004 if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions to stock-based employee compensation for those periods.

In November 2005, the FASB issued FSP FAS 123(R)-3, Transition Election to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards. This FSP requires an entity to follow either the transition guidance for the additional-paid-in-capital pool as prescribed in FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, or the alternative transition method as described in the FSP. An entity that adopts Statement No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method may make a one-time election to adopt the transition method described in this FSP. An entity may take up to one year from the later of its initial adoption of Statement 123(R) or the effective date of this FSP to evaluate its available transition alternatives and make its one-time election. This FSP became effective in November 2005. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance, but does not believe the adoption of this FSP 123(R)-3 will have a material impact on financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Comprehensive Income

 

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and foreign currency translation. The foreign currency translation gains or losses are not tax-effected because the earnings of foreign subsidiaries are considered by Company management to be permanently reinvested. For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005, comprehensive income consisted of net income of the Company of $9.3 million and $18.6 million, respectively, and net translation adjustments of $308,000 and $507,000, respectively. For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004, comprehensive income consisted of net income of the Company of $9.1 million and $18.0 million, respectively, and net translation adjustments of $486,000 and $482,000, respectively.

 

(4) Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common and potential common shares outstanding.

(5) Revolving Credit Facility and Subsidiary Lines of Credit

 

At December 31, 2005, the Company had a $100 million multi-currency revolving credit facility with its bank group, which matures on July 31, 2008. This facility has an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the revolving credit line up to an additional $50 million, the first $30 million of which is committed with the existing bank group and the remaining $20 million of which is subject to syndication. The facility bears interest at either the 30-day LIBOR rate of interest on U.S. dollar borrowings or the 30, 60, 90 or 180-day LIBOR rate of interest on other currency borrowings. The interest rate is the appropriate LIBOR rate plus a rate varying from 0.75% to 1.75% tied to the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio ranging from 0.00:1.00 to 2.50:1.00 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.50:1. The effective weighted average interest rate at December 31, 2005 was 3.81%. The outstanding borrowings on that date were $28.8 million on a total commitment of $130 million, leaving $101.2 million available for additional borrowings. The facility is collateralized by domestic assets, primarily accounts receivable and inventory. The agreement contains other restrictive financial covenants, including among other things, total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, capital expenditure limits, and a prohibition on the payment of dividends. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at December 31, 2005.

(7) Stock Options

 

At December 31, 2005, the Company has three stock-based compensation plans and a plan for its non-employee directors that are described below. The compensation cost charged to expense was $935,000 and $1,827,000, respectively, for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005. The total income tax benefit recognized in the condensed consolidated income statement for share-based compensation arrangements for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 is $127,000 and $332,000, respectively. No compensation cost was capitalized as part of inventory and fixed assets for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005.

 

The Company’s stock option plans, which are shareholder approved, permit the grant of stock options and shares to its employees and directors. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees and directors with those of its shareholders and are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. Such stock option plans are described below.

 

  The 1993 Incentive Stock Option Plan reserved 560,000 shares of common stock for issuance to key employees. The plan provides for three-year vesting of the options at a rate of 33% annually. The options are exercisable over 10 years, and options are not to be granted at less than the fair market value of the underlying shares at the date of grant. As of December 31, 2005, there were 7,889 shares available for grant under this plan. No change of control provisions exist for this plan.

 

  The amended 1997 Stock Incentive Plan reserved 1,200,000 shares of common stock for issuance to officers, directors, employees, consultants or advisors to the Company. This plan provides for incentive stock options, nonqualified options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards to be granted at exercise prices to be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The plan provides for three-year vesting of the options at a rate of 33% annually. The term of each option is 10 years from the grant date. As of December 31, 2005, there were 19,670 shares available for grant under this plan. Certain awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change of control (as defined in the plan).

 

  The 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders) reserved 800,000 shares of common stock for issuance to officers, employees, consultants or advisors to the Company. This plan provides for incentive stock options, nonqualified options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards to be granted at exercise prices to be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The plan provides for three-year vesting of the options at a rate of 33% annually, and provides a term of 10 years from the grant date. As of December 31, 2005, there were 410,030 shares available for grant under this plan. No change of control provisions exist for this plan.

 

  Since 1993 the Company has compensated its non-employee directors with a grant of stock options issued at fair market value on the date following the annual meeting of shareholders. The stock option grants have had a term of 10 years and vesting period of six months after the date of grant. The 1993 Director Plan had 30,000 reserved shares remaining but not issued when it was replaced by the 1999 Director Plan. The 1999 Director Plan had 124,000 reserved shares remaining but not issued when it was replaced by the 2003 Directors Equity Compensation Plan (the “2003 Director Plan”), which reserved 125,000 shares of common stock. Under the 2003 Director Plan, the number of shares granted (rounded up to the nearest 100 shares) is calculated by dividing $200,000 by the average per share stock price of the common stock for the 30-day period immediately preceding the grant date. As of December 31, 2005, there were 84,200 shares available for grant under this plan. No change of control provisions exist for this plan.

 

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing formula that uses assumptions determined at the date of grant. A grant of 14,000 options occurred during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005. During the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004, a grant of 12,700 options occurred. Options granted during the six months ended December 31, 2005 use terms and fair value assumptions

as follows: expected volatility of 40%, expected dividends of 0%, expected term of 5 years, and risk-free interest rate of 4.5%. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from the Company’s stock prices. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options is derived from the output of the option valuation and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U. S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation costs related to the outstanding grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the option from the grant date to final vesting date using the fair value of the options.

of each reporting unit’s fair value using market multiples and discounted cash flows modeling. At the end of fiscal year 2005, no impairment charge was recorded. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 142, no amortization of goodwill has been recorded. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired additional goodwill through the acquisition of an additional 8% of Netpoint and the remaining 12% interest in OUI.

The customer lists are amortized using the straight-line method over a period of 5 years, which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are realized. The non-compete agreements are amortized over their contract life and the debt issue costs are amortized over the term of the credit facility by a method which approximates the effective interest method. Amortization expense for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 was $51,000 and $101,000, respectively. Amortization expense for fiscal years 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 is estimated to be approximately $200,000, $170,000, $133,000 and $11,000.

International Distribution sells to two geographic areas, Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe, and offers AIDC and POS equipment to approximately 4,000 resellers and integrators of technology products. This segment began during fiscal 2002 with the Company’s purchase of a majority interest in Netpoint and the start-up of the Company’s European operations. Of this segment’s customers, no single account represented 1% or more of the Company’s consolidated net sales during the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.

 

The Company evaluates segment performance based on operating income. Inter-segment sales consist of sales by the North American Distribution segment to the International Distribution segment.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies

 

Contingencies – The Company received an assessment for a sales and use tax matter for the five calendar years ended 2003 and the first quarter ended March 31, 2004. Based on this assessment, the Company has determined a probable range for the disposition of that assessment and for subsequent periods. Although the Company is disputing the assessment, it accrued a liability of $1.4 million at June 30, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the Company has paid approximately $530,000 leaving a liability of $874,000. The Company is disputing the entire $1.4 million assessment including payments made on the liability. Although there can be no assurance of the ultimate outcome at this time, the Company intends to vigorously defend its position.

 

The Company has contractual obligations of approximately $5.8 million for the purchase of real property and computer software at December 31, 2005.

North American Distribution

 

North American distribution sales include sales to technology resellers in the United States and Canada from the Company’s Memphis, Tennessee distribution center. Sales to technology resellers in Canada account for less than 5% of total net sales for the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The 9.4% or $30.3 million increase in North American Distribution sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, as compared to the same period in the prior year, was due primarily to the reasons described below. The 7.1% or $46.6 million increase for the six months ended December 31, 2005, as compared to the same period in the prior year, was due to strong AIDC and communciation sales.

 

Sales of the AIDC and POS product categories for the North America distribution segment increased 5% as compared to the prior year quarter and 3% as compared to the prior year six month period. The AIDC business grew across all product lines during the quarter; however, POS was down compared to the prior year. The ScanSource Security Distribution sales unit was created during the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Sales of that unit were immaterial for the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2005.

 

Sales of converged communications products increased 15% as compared to the prior year quarter and 10% as compared to the prior year six month period. Catalyst Telecom, which distributes small and medium business (SMBS) and enterprise products (ECG), and Paracon, which distributes communications products, experienced sales growth due to new lines and increased demand.

 

International Distribution

 

The international distribution segment includes sales to Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe from the ScanSource selling unit. Sales for the overall international segment increased 17% or $8.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and 24% or $19.4 million for the six month period as compared to the same periods in the prior

year. The increase in sales was primarily attributable to obtaining additional market share in Europe during the December 2005 quarter and six month period. Sales during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 were negatively impacted by foreign exchange fluctuations of $3.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Without the foreign exchange fluctuations, the increase in sales for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 would have been $11.8 million or 25.1% and $23.3 million or 29.3%, respectively. Sales in most Latin American countries were up during the December 2005 quarter compared to the prior year quarter despite lost selling days from two hurricanes and the lack of growth of large deals in Mexico.

North American Distribution

 

Gross profit for the North American distribution segment increased 6.3% or $2.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and 5.6% or $3.7 million for the six month period as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in gross profit for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 is a result of increased sales volume of the segment. During the quarter ended December 31, 2005 the Company ended its distribution agreement with NEC. The impact on the Company’s gross profit was insignificant.

 

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the North American distribution segment was essentially flat compared to the same period in the prior year.

 

International Distribution

 

Gross profit for the international distribution segment increased 38.2% or $1.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and 40.9% or $3.6 million for the six month period as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to increased distribution sales volume and a more favorable product mix with fewer low margin large deals.

Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, which is typically greater than the North American Distribution segment, increased for the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2005, as noted above.

Six months

   $ 51,281    $ 45,422    $ 5,859    12.9 %   6.4 %   6.2 %

 

For the quarter ended December 31, 2005, operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is due principally to the recognition of $935,000 in compensation expense related to FASB Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, during the quarter ended December 31, 2005. In addition, the quarter ended December 31, 2005 includes increases in bad debt expense of $659,000 and fixed expenses of $424,000.

 

The Company continues to invest in its security business, Europe and Latin America due to its growth potential. In Europe, the Company has expanded geographically and increased employee headcount. With respect to its Latin American market, the Company has increased employee headcount in Miami and Mexico City in order to serve an expanding customer base. During the December 2005 quarter, the Company expanded its marketing efforts in the Security business. Furthermore, the Company continues to invest in value-added services for customers worldwide (e.g., RFID training programs).

 

For the six months ended December 31, 2005, operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is due principally to the recognition of $1,827,000 in compensation expense related to the Company’s adoption of FASB Statement No. 123R, investing in its security business, growth geographically, growth in employee headcount, and investing in value-added services for customers. Pursuant to achieving internal goals for return on invested capital during the six months ended December 31, 2005, the Company recorded profit-sharing expense of $2.4 million and a $400,000 charge for a contribution to the Company’s charitable foundation.

Operating income increased 5.5% or $812,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and 5.0% or $1.5 million for the six month period ended December 31, 2005 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increases were a result of increased gross profit on higher sales volume and improved international gross profit margin percentages discussed above.

 

Operating income as a percentage of net sales decreased compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in operating margins is primarily due to the impact of FASB Statement No. 123R, which more than offset the increased gross profit amounts discussed above.

Interest expense reflects interest paid on borrowings on the Company’s line of credit and long-term debt. Interest expense for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 was $455,000 and $966,000, respectively. Interest expense for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004 was $482,000 and $895,000, respectively. The increased expense during the six months ended December 31, 2005 was due to higher interest rates on the Company’s line of credit over the prior year periods.

 

Interest income for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 was $155,000 and $304,000, respectively. Interest income for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004 was $334,000 and $550,000, respectively. The decrease over the prior year is principally the result of a lower interest-bearing receivables balance during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005.

 

Foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements,

offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses. Net foreign exchange gains for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 were $27,000 and $21,000, respectively. Net foreign exchange gains for the quarter and six month ended December 31, 2004 were $258,000 and $223,000, respectively. The change in foreign exchange gains and losses for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 as compared to the prior year are primarily the result of fluctuations in the value of the Euro versus the British Pound, and to a lesser extent, the U.S. Dollar versus other currencies. The Company utilizes foreign exchange contracts and debt in non-functional currencies to hedge foreign currency exposure. The Company’s foreign exchange policy prohibits entering into speculative transactions.

 

Provision For Income Taxes

 

Income tax expense was $6.0 million and $11.6 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively, reflecting an effective income tax rate of 39.3% and 38.4%, respectively. Income tax expense was $5.7 million and $11.2 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004, reflecting an effective income tax rate of 38.4% and 38.2%, respectively.

 

Minority Interest in Income of Consolidated Subsidiaries

 

The Company consolidates subsidiaries that have a minority ownership interest. For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005, the Company recorded $51,000 and $110,000, net of income tax, respectively, of minority interest expense in the Company’s majority owned subsidiaries’ net income. For the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004, the Company recorded $100,000 and $130,000, net of income tax, respectively, of minority interest in the Company’s majority owned subsidiaries’ net income. The decrease in minority interest expense relates primarily to the purchase of the remaining OUI minority ownership during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and, to a lesser extent, borrowings under the subsidiary’s line of credit, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

 

The Company’s cash and cash equivalent balance totaled $10.9 million at December 31, 2005 compared to $8.6 million at June 30, 2005. Domestic cash is generally swept on a nightly basis to pay down the Company’s line of credit. The Company’s working capital increased to $244.3 million at December 31, 2005 from $221.5 million at June 30, 2005. The increase in working capital resulted primarily from a $34.6 million increase in the Company’s trade and notes receivable, a $12.7 million increase in inventories, and a $4.5 million reduction of short-term borrowings, offset principally by a $34.7 million increase in trade accounts payable. The increase in receivables and inventory is due to levels necessary to support worldwide growth of the Company.

 

The increase in the amount of trade accounts receivable is attributable to an increase in sales during the quarter. The number of days sales outstanding (DSO) in ending trade receivables remained comparable at December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, at 55 and 51 days, respectively. The increase in DSO for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 is principally due to a change in mix of receivables on a geographic basis. In addition, in North America the Company is selling to more large customers and is allowing longer payment terms that previously were given to such customers when buying direct from manufacturers. Inventory turnover increased to 7.8 times in the quarter ended December 31, 2005 from 6.6 times in the quarter ended December 31, 2004 as a result of the Company’s conscious decision to manage inventory levels to attain return on invested capital targets.

 

Cash provided by operating activities was $11.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 compared to $25.2 million of cash used in operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2004. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the timing of vendor payments (in accordance with such terms) and working capital management.

 

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2005 was $3.8 million, which included $2.5 million for capital expenditures and $1.3 million primarily for the purchase of additional ownership interest in the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, Netpoint, and OUI. The Company’s capital expenditures included $1.1 million related to the expansion of the Memphis, Tennessee distribution center, as well as purchases of software, furniture and equipment.

 

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2004 was $2.1 million, which included $1.6 million for capital expenditures and $521,000 primarily for additional ownership interest in the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, Netpoint. The Company’s capital expenditures included $617,000 related to the expansion of the Memphis, Tennessee distribution center, as well as purchases of software, furniture and equipment.

At December 31, 2005, the Company had a $100 million multi-currency revolving credit facility with its bank group, which matures on July 31, 2008. This facility has an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the revolving credit line up to an additional $50 million, the first $30 million of which is committed with the existing bank group and the remaining $20 million of which is subject to syndication. The facility bears interest at either the 30-day LIBOR rate of interest on U.S. dollar borrowings or the 30, 60, 90 or 180-day LIBOR rate of interest on other currency borrowings. The interest rate is the appropriate LIBOR rate plus a rate varying from 0.75% to 1.75% tied to the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio ranging from 0.00:1.00 to 2.50:1.00 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.50:1. The effective weighted average interest rate at December 31, 2005 was 3.81%. The outstanding borrowings were $28.8 million on a total commitment of $130 million, leaving $101.2 million available for additional borrowings. The facility is collateralized by domestic assets, primarily accounts receivable and inventory. The agreement contains other restrictive financial covenants, including among other things, total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, capital expenditure limits, and a prohibition on the payment of dividends. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at December 31, 2005.

 

At June 30, 2005, the Company had a $100 million multi-currency revolving credit facility with its bank group, which matures on July 31, 2008. This facility has an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the revolving credit line up to an additional $50 million, the first $30 million of which is committed with the existing bank group and the remaining $20 million of which is subject to syndication.

The effective weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2005 was 3.87%. The outstanding borrowings were $31.3 million on a total commitment of $130 million, leaving $98.7 million available for additional borrowings. The facility is collateralized by domestic assets, primarily accounts receivable and inventory. The agreement contains other restrictive financial covenants, including among other things, total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, capital expenditure limits, and a prohibition on the payment of dividends. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at June 30, 2005.

 

At December 31, 2005, Netpoint, doing business as ScanSource Latin America, had an asset-based line of credit with a bank that was due on demand and had a borrowing limit of $1 million. The facility was renewed in January 2006, and is scheduled to mature on January 31, 2007. The facility is collateralized by accounts receivable and eligible inventory, and contains a restrictive covenant which requires an average deposit of $50,000 with the bank. The Company has guaranteed 84% of the balance on the line, while the remaining 16% of the balance is guaranteed by Netpoint’s minority shareholder. The facility bears interest at the bank’s prime rate minus one percent. At December 31, 2005, the effective interest rate was 6.25%. At December 31, 2005 there was no outstanding balance and outstanding standby letters of credit totaled $40,000, leaving $960,000 available for borrowings. Netpoint was in compliance with its covenant at December 31, 2005.

 

At June 30, 2005, Netpoint, doing business as ScanSource Latin America, had an asset-based line of credit with a bank that was due on demand and had a borrowing limit of $1 million. The facility was scheduled to mature on August 27, 2005 and has been extended to November 30, 2005. The facility is collateralized by accounts receivable and eligible inventory, and contains a restrictive covenant which requires an average deposit of $50,000 with the bank. The Company has guaranteed 68% of the balance on the line, while the remaining 32% of the balance was guaranteed by Netpoint’s minority shareholder. The facility bears interest at the bank’s prime rate minus one percent. At June 30, 2005, the effective interest rate was 5.25%. At June 30, 2005 there was no outstanding balance and outstanding standby letters of credit totaled $40,000, leaving $960,000 available for borrowings. Netpoint was in compliance with its covenant at June 30, 2005.

 

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2005 totaled $5.4 million, including a $4.5 million decrease in short-term borrowings, $1.7 million in payments on long-term debt and payments of $1.4 million on advances under the Company’s credit facility, offset by $1.1 million in excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements and $1.1 million in proceeds from stock option exercises. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2004 totaled $27.8 million, including $27.0 million in advances under the Company’s credit facility and $1.2 million in proceeds from stock option exercises offset, in part, by $411,000 in payments on long-term debt.

The Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity to meet its forecasted cash requirements for at least the next fiscal year.

 

Accounting Standards Recently Issued

 

Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company accounted for those plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. No stock-based employee compensation was recognized in the Consolidated Income Statement for the quarter or six months ended December 31, 2004 as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in the quarters ended subsequent to the implementation date include: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to July 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement 123(R). During the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005, the Company granted 14,000 share-based options. No modifications to existing share-based grants occurred during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005. Results for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2004 have not been restated.

 

As a result of adopting Statement 123(R) on July 1, 2005, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 are $935,000 and $808,000 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25. For the six months ended December 31, 2005, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income are $1,827,000 and $1,495,000 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion No. 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 would have been $0.79 and $0.77, respectively, if the Company had not adopted Statement 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.73 and 0.71, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2005 would have been $1.58 and $1.54, respectively, if the Company had not adopted Statement 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.47 and $1.42, respectively.

 

At December 31, 2005, the Company had approximately $4.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.

 

In November 2005, the FASB issued FSP FAS 123(R)-3, Transition Election to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards. This FSP requires an entity to follow either the transition guidance for the additional-paid-in-capital pool as prescribed in FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, or the alternative transition method as described in the FSP. An entity that adopts Statement No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method may make a one-time election to adopt the transition method described in this FSP. An entity may take up to one year from the later of its initial adoption of Statement 123(R) or the effective date of this FSP to evaluate its available transition alternatives and make its one-time election. This FSP became effective in November 2005. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance, but does not believe the adoption of this FSP 123(R)-3 will have a material impact on financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Impact of Inflation

 

The Company has not been adversely affected by inflation as technological advances and competition within specialty technology markets has generally caused prices of the products sold by the Company to decline. Management believes that any price increases could be passed on to its customers, as prices charged by the Company are not set by long-term contracts.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

The Company’s principal exposure to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of its business is a result of its selective use of bank debt and transacting business in foreign currencies in connection with its foreign operations. The Company has chosen to present this information below in a sensitivity analysis format.

 

The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its borrowing activities, which include revolving credit facilities with a group of banks used to maintain liquidity and fund the Company’s business operations. The nature and amount of the Company’s debt may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. The definitive extent of the Company’s interest rate risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements, but the Company does not believe such risk is material. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on borrowings on the Company’s revolving line of credit, variable rate long term debt and subsidiary line of credit for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2005 would have resulted in an approximate $91,000 and $207,000 increase or decrease, respectively, in pre-tax income. The Company does not currently use derivative instruments or take other actions to adjust the Company’s interest rate risk profile.

 

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from its foreign operations primarily in Canada, Mexico and Europe. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, inter-company loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in non-functional currencies. Foreign exchange risk is managed by using foreign currency forward and option contracts to hedge these exposures, as well as balance sheet netting of exposures. The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a foreign exchange hedging policy to minimize foreign currency exposure. The Company’s policy is to utilize financial instruments to reduce risks where internal netting cannot be effectively employed and not to enter into foreign currency derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company monitors its risk associated with the volatility of certain foreign currencies against its functional currencies and enters into foreign exchange derivative contracts to minimize short-term currency risks on cash flows. The Company continually evaluates foreign exchange risk and may enter into foreign exchange transactions in accordance with its policy. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in other expense (income).

 

The Company has elected not to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments, and therefore, the instruments are marked to market with changes in their values recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement each period. The underlying exposures are denominated primarily in British Pounds, Euros, and Canadian Dollars. At December 31, 2005, the Company had currency forward contracts outstanding with a net liability under these contracts of $28,000. At June 30, 2005, the Company had no currency forward contracts outstanding.

 

The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged financial instruments. On the basis of the fair value of the Company’s market sensitive instruments at December 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, the Company does not consider the potential near-term losses in future earnings, fair values and cash flows from reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates and exchange rates to be material.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated, with the participation of management, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as required by Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation, which disclosed no material weakness, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. However, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty. Breakdowns in the control systems can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
