1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Triumph Group, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

 

The Company designs, engineers, manufactures, repairs and overhauls aircraft components and accessories. The Company serves a broad, worldwide spectrum of the aviation industry, including original equipment manufacturers of commercial, regional, business and military aircraft and aircraft components, as well as commercial and regional airlines and air cargo carriers.

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Subsequent Events

 

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 165, Subsequent Events, management has evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date through July 31, 2009, the date of issuance of the interim financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company’s trade accounts receivable are exposed to credit risk; however, the risk is limited due to the diversity of the customer base and the customer base’s wide geographical area. Trade accounts receivable from The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) represented approximately 22% and 16% of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The Company had no other significant concentrations of credit risk. Sales to Boeing for the three months ended June 30, 2009 were $89,232, or 28% of net sales, of which $79,428 and $9,804 were from the Aerospace Systems segment and Aftermarket Services segment, respectively. Sales to Boeing for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $77,122 or 24% of net sales, of which $65,936 and $11,186 were from the Aerospace Systems segment and Aftermarket Services segment, respectively. No other single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s net sales; however, the loss of any significant customer, including Boeing, could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operating subsidiaries.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (“FSP APB 14-1”).  FSP APB 14-1 clarifies that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) are not addressed

2.               SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

by paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants.  Additionally, this FSP specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods.

 

The Company recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment of $2,121 reducing the April 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings and reducing the carrying amount of our convertible debt to the discounted value with the discount recorded through capital in excess of par. The retroactive application of FSP APB 14-1 resulted in the recognition of additional pre-tax non-cash interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2008 of $1,541, or $0.06 per diluted share.

 

The following table sets forth the effect of the retrospective application of FSP APB 14-1 on certain reported line items:

 

		Three months ended June 30, 2008
Consolidated Statement of Income		As previously reported			Adjustment			As adjusted
Interest expense and other		$	3,427		$	1,541		$	4,968
Income tax expense		13,867			(576		)	13,291
Net income		24,831			(965		)	23,866

 

		March 31, 2009
Consolidated Balance Sheet		As previously reported			Adjustment			As adjusted
Other assets, net		$	13,731		$	(1,700	)	$	12,031
Long-term debt, less current portion		386,219			(15,908		)	370,311
Deferred income taxes other		117,462			582			118,044
Capital in excess of par		291,304			25,749			317,053
Retained earnings		500,348			(12,123		)	488,225

 

The debt components recognized for the Company’s convertible notes as of March 31, 2009 were as follows:

 

Principal amount of convertible notes				$	183,250
Unamortized discount (1)				15,908
Net carrying amount				167,342

 

(1)          Remaining recognition period of 2.5 years as of March 31, 2009.

 

The amount of interest expense recognized and the effective rate for the Company’s convertible notes were as follows:

 

		Three months ended June 30,
		2009			2008
Contractual coupon interest		$	1,229		$	1,321
Amortization of discount on convertible notes		1,494			1,558

Effective interest rate		6.5		%	6.5		%

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

In February 2008 the FASB issued FSP No. 157-1, which amends SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”) to exclude SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, and other accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements for lease transactions, and FSP No. 157-2, which delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 as it relates to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities until April 1, 2009 for the Company, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the Company’s financial statements on a recurring basis.  The nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities for which the Company has not applied the fair value provisions of SFAS 157 include: goodwill; intangible and other long-lived asset impairment testing; asset retirement obligations; liabilities for exit or disposal activities; and business combinations.  The adoption had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows as the Company did not have any non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that were recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2009.

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.  The FSP requires entities to evaluate the significance and relevance of market factors for fair value inputs to determine if, due to reduced volume and market activity, the factors are still relevant and substantive measures of fair value.  The FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 132(R)-1, Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets. This FSP amends SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, to provide guidance on an employer’s disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan on investment policies and strategies, major categories of plan assets, inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets and significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. This FSP shall be effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009, with earlier application permitted. Upon initial application, the provisions of this FSP are not required for earlier periods that are presented for comparative purposes. We are currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of this new FSP.

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1. This FSP amends SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements. Prior to this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed annually. This FSP applies to all financial instruments within the scope of SFAS 107 and requires all entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. This FSP shall be effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company adopted this FSP in the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and the adoption of this FSP did not have a material effect on its disclosures.

 

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”) and SFAS No. 160, Accounting and Reporting of Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160). SFAS 141(R) and SFAS 160 significantly change the accounting for and reporting of business combination transactions and noncontrolling (minority) interests. The adoption of SFAS 141(R) and SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, (“SFAS 123R”) which requires companies to measure compensation cost for all share-based payments (including employee stock options) at fair value. The Company adopted SFAS 123R, using the modified-prospective transition method, beginning

on April 1, 2006, and therefore began to expense the fair value of all outstanding options over their remaining vesting periods to the extent the options were not fully vested as of the adoption date and began to expense the fair value of all options granted subsequent to March 31, 2006 over their requisite service periods. SFAS 123R also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense to be reported as a financing cash flow ($98 and $183 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively), rather than an operating cash flow.  Stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options recognized under SFAS 123R for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was $880 and $805, respectively, and, in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 107, the Company has classified share-based compensation within selling, general and administrative expenses to correspond with the same line item as the majority of the cash compensation paid to employees. Previous periods have not been restated.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets cost and accumulated amortization at June 30, 2009 were $173,775 and $67,494, respectively.  Intangible assets cost and accumulated amortizations at March 31, 2009 were $171,558 and $63,208, respectively.  Intangible assets consist of two major classes: (i) product rights and licenses, which at June 30, 2009 had a weighted-average life of 11.3 years and (ii) non-compete agreements, customer relationships and other, which at June 30, 2009 had a weighted-average life of 9.9 years.  Gross cost and accumulated amortization of product rights and licenses at June 30, 2009 were $74,082 and $46,765, respectively, and at March 31, 2009 were $74,082 and $45,079, respectively.  Gross cost and accumulated amortization of noncompete agreements, customer relationships and other at June 30, 2009 were $99,693 and $20,729, respectively, and at March 31, 2009 were $97,476 and $18,129, respectively.  Amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was $4,255 and $2,995, respectively.  Amortization expense for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the succeeding five fiscal years by year is expected to be as follows: 2010: $16,612; 2011: $14,827; 2012: $13,330; 2013: $13,145; 2014: $12,139; and thereafter: $38,327.

The contingent amounts have not been recorded as the contingencies have not been resolved and the consideration has not been paid.  The excess of the combined purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of the net assets acquired of $73,260 was recorded as goodwill, $60,944 of which is tax-deductible.  The Company has also identified intangible assets valued at approximately $45,466 comprised of noncompete agreements, customer relationships, and product rights and licenses with a weighted-average life of 9.3 years.  The Company is awaiting final appraisals of tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities related to the fiscal 2009 acquisitions.  Accordingly, the Company has recorded its best estimate of the intangibles and property and equipment subject to appraisals.  Therefore, the allocation of purchase price for the fiscal 2009 acquisitions is not complete and is subject to change.

The fiscal 2009 acquisitions have been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective dates of acquisition. The fiscal 2009 acquisitions were funded by the Company’s long-term borrowings in place at the dates of acquisition.

 

The following unaudited pro forma information for the three months ended June 30, 2008 has been prepared assuming the fiscal 2009 acquisitions had occurred on April 1, 2008. The pro forma information for the three months ended June 30, 2008 is as follows: Net sales: $346,390; Income from continuing operations: $25,136; Income per share from continuing operations - basic: $1.54; Income per share from continuing operations — diluted:  $1.49.

 

The unaudited pro forma information includes adjustments for interest expense that would have been incurred to finance the purchase, additional depreciation based on the estimated fair market value of the property and equipment acquired, and the amortization of the intangible assets arising from the transactions.  The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations of the Company as it would have been had the transaction been effected on the assumed date.

 

4.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

 

In September 2007, the Company sold the assets of Triumph Precision, Inc., a build-to-specification manufacturer and supplier of ultra-precision machined components and assemblies in its Aerospace Systems segment.  The effective date of the sale was July 1, 2007.  The Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $650 on the sale of the business, which included costs to sell of $150.  The Company has also decided to sell Triumph Precision Castings Co., a casting facility in its Aftermarket Services segment that specializes in producing high quality hot gas path components for aero and land based gas turbines.   The Company recognized a pre-tax loss of $3,500 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 based upon a write-down of the carrying value of the business to estimated fair value less costs to sell.  The write-down was applied to inventory and long-lived assets, consisting primarily of property, plant and equipment.  For financial statement purposes, the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of these businesses have been segregated from those of the continuing operations and are presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale.

Credit Facility

 

On July 10, 2008, the Company amended its existing amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with its lenders primarily to allow for an asset securitization facility of up to $125,000 and amend certain other terms and covenants.  Coincident with the amendment, the Company exercised the accordion feature of the Credit Facility, to increase the Credit Facility to $370,000 from $350,000.  On October 20, 2006, the Company amended the Credit Facility with its lenders to increase the Credit Facility to $350,000 from $250,000, extend the maturity date to June 30, 2011 and amend certain other terms and covenants. The Credit Facility bears interest at either: (i) LIBOR plus between 0.625% and 2.00%; (ii) the prime rate; or (iii) an overnight rate at the option of the Company. The applicable interest rate is based upon the Company’s ratio of total indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.175% and 0.400% on the unused portion of the Credit Facility.  The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries.

 

At June 30, 2009, there were $115,000 in borrowings and $6,067 in letters of credit outstanding under the facility.  At March 31, 2009 there were $127,730 in borrowings and $5,600 in letters of credit outstanding under the facility.  The level of unused borrowing capacity under the Company’s revolving credit facility varies from time to time depending in part upon its compliance with financial and other covenants set forth in the related agreement.  The Company is currently in compliance with all such covenants.  As of June 30, 2009, the Company had borrowing capacity under this facility of $248,933 after reductions for borrowings and letters of credit outstanding under the facility.

 

Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes

 

On September 18, 2006, the Company issued $201,250 in convertible senior subordinated notes (the “Notes”). The Notes are direct, unsecured, senior subordinated obligations of the Company, and rank (i) junior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness, (ii) equal in right of payment with any other future senior subordinated indebtedness, and (iii) senior in right of payment to all subordinated indebtedness.  During fiscal 2009, the Company paid $15,420 to purchase $18,000 in principal amount of the Notes, resulting in a reduction in the carrying amount of the Notes of $16,283 and a gain on extinguishment of $880.

 

The Company received net proceeds from the sale of the Notes of approximately $194,998 after deducting debt issuance expenses of approximately $6,252. The use of the net proceeds from the sale was for

6.  LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

 

prepayment of the Company’s outstanding senior notes, including a make-whole premium, fees and expenses in connection with the prepayment, and to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s Credit Facility. Debt issuance costs have been recorded as other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over a period of five years.

 

The Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.625% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on each April 1 and October 1 beginning April 1, 2007. During the period commencing on October 6, 2011 and ending on, but excluding, April 1, 2012 and each six-month period from October 1 to March 31 or from April 1 to September 30 thereafter, the Company will pay contingent interest during the applicable interest period if the average trading price of a Note for the five consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day immediately preceding the first day of the relevant six-month period equals or exceeds 120% of the principal amount of the Notes. The contingent interest payable per Note in respect of any six-month period will equal 0.25% per annum calculated on the average trading price of a Note for the relevant five trading day period. This contingent interest feature represents an embedded derivative. Since it is in the control of the Company to call the Notes at any time after October 6, 2011, the value of the derivative was determined to be de minimis. Accordingly, no value has been assigned at issuance or at June 30, 2009.

 

The Notes mature on October 1, 2026 unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted. The Company may redeem the Notes for cash, either in whole or in part, anytime on or after October 6, 2011 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest and additional amounts, if any, up to but not including the date of redemption. In addition, holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes on October 1, 2011, 2016 and 2021, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest and additional amounts, if any, up to, but not including, the date of repurchase. The Notes are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to 18.3655 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $54.45 per share), subject to adjustment as described in the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will deliver to the holder surrendering the Notes for conversion, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, an amount consisting of cash equal to the lesser of $1,000 and the Company’s total conversion obligation and, to the extent that the Company’s total conversion obligation exceeds $1,000, at the Company’s election, cash or shares of the Company’s common stock in respect of the remainder.

 

The Notes are eligible for conversion upon meeting certain conditions as provided in the indenture governing the Notes. For the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively, the Notes were not eligible for conversion.  Accordingly, the Company has classified the Notes as long-term as of June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

 

To be included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, the average price of the Company’s common stock for the quarter must exceed the conversion price per share of $54.45. The average price of the Company’s common stock for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was $40.96 and $58.98, respectively.  Therefore, zero and 283,930 additional shares were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.  If the Company undergoes a fundamental change, holders of the Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, including contingent interest and additional amounts, if any.

6.  LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

 

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted FSP APB 14-1, resulting in the reduction of the carrying amount of our convertible debt to the discounted value with the discount recorded through capital in excess of par. As of June 30, 2009, the remaining discount of $14,414 will be amortized on the effective interest method through October 1, 2011.

 

Receivables Securitization Program

 

In August 2008, the Company entered into a receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization Facility”) with a purchase limit of $125,000.  In connection with the Securitization Facility, the Company sells on a revolving basis certain accounts receivable to Triumph Receivables, LLC, a wholly-owned special-purpose entity, which in turn sells a percentage ownership interest in the receivables to commercial paper conduits sponsored by financial institutions.  The Company is the servicer of the accounts receivable under the Securitization Facility.  As of June 30, 2009, the maximum amount available under the Securitization Facility was $119,400. The Securitization Facility is due to expire in August 2010 and is subject to annual renewal through August 2013.  Interest rates are based on prevailing market rates for short-term commercial paper plus a program fee and a commitment fee.   The program fee is 35 basis points on the amount outstanding under the Securitization Facility.  Additionally, the commitment fee is 30 basis points on 102% of the maximum amount available under the Securitization Facility.  At June 30, 2009, there was $75,000 outstanding under the Securitization Facility.  In connection with entering into the Securitization Facility, the Company incurred approximately $823 of costs, which were deferred and are being amortized over the life of the Securitization Facility.  The Company securitizes its accounts receivable, which are generally non-interest bearing, in transactions that are accounted for as borrowings under SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.

 

The agreement governing the Securitization Facility contains restrictions and covenants which include limitations on the making of certain restricted payments, creation of certain liens, and certain corporate acts such as mergers, consolidations and the sale of substantially all assets.

 

Equipment Leasing Facility

 

During March 2009, the Company entered into a 7-year Master Lease Agreement (the “Leasing Facility”) creating a capital lease of certain existing property and equipment, resulting in net proceeds of $58,546 after deducting debt issuance costs of approximately $188. During June 2009, the Company added additional capital leases resulting in proceeds of $6,669.  The net proceeds from the Leasing Facility were used to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s Credit Facility. The debt issuance costs have been recorded as other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the term of the Leasing Facility. The Leasing Facility bears interest at a weighted-average fixed rate of 6.2% per annum.

 

7.               DERIVATIVES

 

Interest Rate Swap

 

The Company uses interest rate swaps, a derivative financial instrument, to manage interest costs and minimize the effects of interest rate fluctuations on cash flows associated with its Credit Facility.  The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.  While interest rate swaps are subject to fluctuations in value, these fluctuations are generally offset by the estimated fair value of the underlying exposures being hedged.   The Company accounts for its interest rate swaps in accordance with SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, (“SFAS 133”), which requires that all derivatives be recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value.  SFAS 133 also requires that changes in the fair value be recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on the effectiveness of hedge transaction.  Interest rate swaps are

 

14

Table of Contents

 

Triumph Group, Inc.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

 

7.  DERIVATIVES (Continued)

 

designated as cash flow hedges.  Changes in the fair value of a cash flow hedge, to the extent the hedge is effective, are recorded, net of tax, in other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity, until earnings are affected by the variability of the hedged cash flows.  Cash flow hedge ineffectiveness, defined as the extent that the changes in the fair value of the derivative exceed the variability of cash flows of the forecasted transaction, is recorded currently in earnings.

 

In March 2008, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement (the “Swap”), maturing June 2011 involving the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreement, without exchange of the underlying principal amount.  Under the Swap, the Company receives interest equivalent to the one-month LIBOR and pays a fixed rate of interest of 2.925 percent with settlements occurring monthly.  The objective of the hedge is to eliminate the variability of cash flows in interest payments for $85,000 of floating rate debt.  To maintain hedge accounting for the Swap, the Company is committed to maintaining at least $85,000 in borrowings at an interest rate based on one-month LIBOR, plus an applicable margin, through June 2011.

 

As of June 30, 2009, the total notional amount of the Company’s receive-variable/pay-fixed interest rate swap was $85,000.  For the three months ended June 30, 2009, $533 of losses were reclassified into earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

The fair value of the interest rate swap of $2,760 and $3,429 as of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively, were included in Deferred income taxes and other.

 

The effect of derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of income is as follows:

 

				Amount of Gain (Loss) in OCI						Reclassification Adjustment
		Reclassification Adjustment		(Effective Portion)						Gain (Loss) Amount
		Gain (Loss) Location		Period ended June 30,						Period ended June 30,
		(Effective Portion)		2009			2008			2009			2008
Cash Flow Hedges
Interest rate swap		Interest expense and other		$	421		$	1,531		$	(533	)	$	(29	)

 

The amount of ineffectiveness on the interest rate swap is not significant. The Company estimates that approximately $1,549 of losses presently in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings during the remainder of fiscal 2010.

 

8.               FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157.  This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  On April 1, 2008, the provisions of SFAS 157 became effective for financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company.

8.  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

 

SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  SFAS 157 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1   Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2   Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability

 

Level 3          Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability 

 

The following table provides the assets reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2009:

 

					Fair Value Measurements Using:
					Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets			Significant Other Observable Inputs			Significant Unobservable Inputs
Description		Total			(Level 1)			(Level 2)			(Level 3)
Interest rate swap, net of tax of $(1,021)		$	(1,739	)	$	—		$	(1,739	)	$	—

 

The fair value of the interest rate swap contract is determined using observable current market information as of the reporting date such as the prevailing LIBOR-based interest rate.

 

Carrying amounts and the related estimated fair values of the company’s financial instruments not recorded at fair value in the financial statements are as follows:

 

		June 30, 2009						March 31, 2009
		Carrying Value			Fair Value			Carrying Value			Fair Value
Long-term debt		$	453,439		$	469,971		$	459,396		$	469,221

 

The fair value of the long-term debt was calculated based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the company’s existing debt arrangements.

9.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

The following is a reconciliation between the weighted average outstanding shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

 

		THREE MONTHS ENDED
		JUNE 30,
		(in thousands)
		2009		2008
Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic		16,432		16,373
Net effect of dilutive stock options		179		234
Potential common shares - convertible debt		—		284
Weighted average common shares outstanding — diluted		16,611		16,891

 

10.  INCOME TAXES

 

Effective April 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”).

 

In conjunction with the adoption of FIN 48, the Company has classified uncertain tax positions as non-current income tax liabilities unless expected to be paid in one year.  Penalties and tax-related interest expense are reported as a component of income tax expense.  As of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the total amount of accrued income tax-related interest and penalties was $383 and $427, respectively.

 

As of June 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $3,228 and $3,211, respectively, of which $3,205 and $3,188, respectively, would impact the effective rate, if recognized.  The Company anticipates that total unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by $770 due to the expiration of statutes of limitation for various federal tax issues in the next 12 months.

 

As of June 30, 2009, the Company was subject to examination in state jurisdictions for fiscal years ended March 31, 2005 through March 31, 2008, none of which we believe is individually material.  The Company has filed appeals in a state jurisdiction related to fiscal years ended March 31, 1999 through March 31, 2005.  The fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 is currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service.

 

The Company believes appropriate provisions for all outstanding issues have been made for all jurisdictions and all open years.

 

With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2006, state or local examinations for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2005, or foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2007.

12.  SEGMENTS

 

The Company is organized based on the products and services that it provides. Under this organizational structure, the Company has two reportable segments: the Aerospace Systems Group and the Aftermarket Services Group. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on operating income of each reportable segment. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2). Each segment has a president and controller who manage their respective segment. The segment president reports directly to the President and CEO of the Company, the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), as defined in SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.  The segment presidents maintain regular contact with the CODM to discuss operating activities, financial results, forecasts and plans for the segment. The segment controllers have dual reporting responsibilities, reporting to both their segment president as well as the Corporate Controller.  The Company’s CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based upon review of segment information. The CODM utilizes operating income as a primary measure of profitability.

 

Our Aerospace Systems segment consists of 39 operating locations, and the Aftermarket Services segment consists of 19 operating locations at June 30, 2009.

 

The Aerospace Systems segment consists of the Company’s operations that manufacture products primarily for the aerospace OEM market. The segment’s operations design and engineer mechanical and electromechanical controls, such as hydraulic systems, main engine gearbox assemblies, accumulators and mechanical control cables. The segment’s revenues are also derived from stretch forming, die forming, milling, bonding, machining, welding and assembly and fabrication of various structural components used in aircraft wings, fuselages and other significant assemblies. Further, the segment’s operations also design and manufacture composite assemblies for floor panels, environmental control system ducts and non-structural cockpit components.  These products are sold to various aerospace OEMs on a global basis.

 

The Aftermarket Services segment consists of the Company’s operations that provide maintenance, repair and overhaul services to both commercial and military markets on components and accessories manufactured by third parties. Maintenance, repair and overhaul revenues are derived from services on auxiliary power units, airframe and engine accessories, including constant-speed drives, cabin compressors, starters and generators, and pneumatic drive units. In addition, the segment’s operations repair and overhaul thrust reversers, nacelle components and flight control surfaces.  The segment’s operations also perform repair and overhaul services and supply spare parts for various types of cockpit instruments and gauges for a broad range of commercial airlines on a worldwide basis.

 

Segment operating income is total segment revenue reduced by operating expenses identifiable with that segment. Corporate includes general corporate administrative costs and any other costs not identifiable with one of the Company’s segments.

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

 

(The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein.)

 

OVERVIEW

 

We are a major supplier to the aerospace industry and have two operating segments: (i) Triumph Aerospace Systems Group, whose companies design, engineer and manufacture a wide range of proprietary and build-to-print components, assemblies and systems for the global aerospace original equipment manufacturers, or OEM, market; and (ii) Triumph Aftermarket Services Group, whose companies serve aircraft fleets, notably commercial airlines, the U.S. military and cargo carriers, through the maintenance, repair and overhaul of aircraft components and accessories manufactured by third parties.

 

·                  Net sales for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010 decreased 1.4% to $316.1 million.

 

·                  Operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased 12.6% to $37.9 million.

 

·                  Income from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased 14.2% to $21.5 million.

 

·                  Backlog increased 3% over the first quarter of the prior year to $1.3 billion.

 

·                  Income from continuing operations was $1.30 per diluted common share.

 

·                  We generated $32.5 million of cash flow from operating activities.

 

OUTLOOK

 

Based upon the market assumptions included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, we are reaffirming our guidance on revenue and full year earnings per share from continuing operations.  While we have experienced challenges in our business jet and regional jet end markets, our commercial and military sales continue to grow. In addition, our backlog remains very strong despite production cuts, particularly on the Boeing 777, which will be effective June 2010, business jets, and regional jets.

 

While our assessment of the foregoing trends leads us presently to expect to maintain earnings per share for fiscal year 2010 noted above, there can be no assurance that our assessment of these trends will prove to be correct, nor any assurance that other events or trends will cause our actual results to differ from those expected.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following includes a discussion of our consolidated and business segment results of operations. The Company’s diverse structure and customer base do not provide for precise comparisons of the impact of price and volume changes to our results. However, we have disclosed the significant variances between the respective periods.

Net sales decreased by $4.4 million, or 1.4%, to $316.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from $320.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The acquisitions of Merritt Tool Company, Inc. (now Triumph Structures — East Texas), Saygrove Defence & Aerospace Group Limited (now Triumph Actuation & Motion Control Systems-UK), the aviation segment of Kongsberg Automotive Holdings ASA (now Triumph Controls-U.K and Triumph Controls-Germany) and The Mexmil Company, LLC (now Triumph Insulation Systems), collectively the “fiscal 2009 acquisitions,” contributed $26.0 million of the net sales increase.  Excluding the effects of the fiscal 2009 acquisitions, organic sales declined $30.4 million, or 9.5%, primarily as a result of the reduction in demand for business jets, the decline in the regional jet market due to the overall economy, major program delays (particularly in the 747-8 and 787 programs), lower passenger and freight traffic and airline inventory de-stocking.

 

Cost of sales increased by $0.5 million, or 0.2%, to $224.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from $223.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. This increase includes the impact of the fiscal 2009 acquisitions noted above, which contributed $19.1 million. Excluding the effects of these acquisitions, gross margin was 29.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, compared with 30.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.

 

Segment operating income decreased by $5.7 million, or 11.4%, to $44.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from $50.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.  Operating income decrease was a direct result of the decline in gross margin ($5.0 million) due to lower sales volume as described above, costs incurred in the start up of our Mexican facility ($0.7 million) and increases in depreciation and amortization ($1.9 million) due to the fiscal 2009 acquisitions, partially offset by the decreases in incentive compensation ($1.0 million) and legal fees ($0.9 million).

 

Corporate expenses decreased by $0.2 million, or 3.5%, to $6.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from $6.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008.  Corporate expenses decreased primarily due to a decline in incentive compensation and benefits, partially offset by $0.7 million of start up costs related to the Mexican facility.

 

Interest expense and other increased by $0.4 million, or 7.2%, to $5.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to $4.9 million for the prior year period.  This increase was due to higher average debt outstanding during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008, partially offset by lower interest rates on our revolving credit facility. Effective April 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (“FSP APB 14-1”).
