Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
1. Background
Unifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969 (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Unifi”) is a publicly-traded, multi-national manufacturing company. The Company processes and sells high-volume commodity products, specialized yarns designed to meet certain customer specifications, and premier value-added (“PVA”) yarns with enhanced performance characteristics. The Company sells fibers made from polyester and nylon to other yarn manufacturers, knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, hosiery, sock, home furnishing, automotive upholstery, industrial and other end-use markets. The Company’s polyester products include polyester polymer beads (“Chip”), partially oriented yarn (“POY”), textured, solution and package dyed, twisted and beamed yarns; each available in virgin or recycled varieties (made from both pre-consumer yarn waste and post-consumer waste, including plastic bottles). The Company’s nylon products include textured, solution dyed and covered spandex products. The Company maintains one of the industry’s most comprehensive product offerings and has ten manufacturing operations in four countries and participates in joint ventures in Israel and the United States (“U.S.”). The Company’s principal markets are located in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Central America, and South America. In addition, the Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China (“China”) focused on the sale and promotion of the Company’s specialty and PVA products in the Asian textile market, primarily in China, as well as into Europe.
2. Basis of Presentation
The Company’s current fiscal quarter ended on Sunday, December 23, 2012. However, the Company’s Brazilian, Colombian, and Chinese subsidiaries’ fiscal quarter ended on December 31, 2012. No significant transactions or events outside the normal course of business occurred between the date of the Company’s financial statements and these dates. The three months ended December 23, 2012 and the three months ended December 25, 2011 each consist of thirteen week periods. The six months ended December 23, 2012 and the six months ended December 25, 2011 each consist of twenty-six week periods.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and certain financial statement disclosures. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. There were no changes in the nature of the Company’s significant accounting policies or the application of its accounting policies from those reported in its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year.
All amounts and share amounts, except per share amounts, are presented in thousands, except as otherwise noted.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have, or are expected to have, a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.
4. Acquisition of Controlling Interest in Repreve Renewables, LLC
In April 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with two other unaffiliated entities to form Repreve Renewables, LLC (“Renewables”) and received a 40% membership interest for its $4,000 contribution. Renewables is a development stage enterprise formed to cultivate, grow and sell dedicated energy crops, including biomass feedstock intended for use as a fuel in the production of energy as well as to provide value added processes for cultivating, harvesting or using biomass crops. Renewables has the exclusive license to commercialize FREEDOM® Giant Miscanthus (“FGM”). FGM is a miscanthus grass strain, which is a C4 plant that was developed by Mississippi State University to be a dedicated energy crop with high biomass yield from minimal input requirements. Renewables’ success will depend on its ability to commercialize FGM, license individual growers of FGM and to sell feedstock to biomass conversion facilities. The Company’s investment in Renewables is anticipated to provide a unique revenue stream and support its strategy to grow the REPREVE® brand and related sustainability initiatives.
On October 6, 2011, the Company and one other existing Renewables member each acquired an additional 20% membership interest from the third Renewables member for $500. The additional membership interest purchased by the Company was paid for with available cash. Using the amounts paid per membership unit in the October 6th transaction as a basis (a Level 1 input), the Company determined that the acquisition date fair value of Renewables was $2,500. This resulted in the Company’s previously held 40% equity interest being valued at $1,000. As a result of remeasuring its existing 40% interest to this estimated fair value, the Company recorded a non-operating loss of $3,656 during the quarter ended December 25, 2011.

The acquisition of the additional 20% membership interest has given the Company a 60% membership interest in Renewables. Prior to the acquisition, the Company’s share of Renewables’ losses were recorded as Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Beginning with the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the financial position and results of operations of Renewables. As Renewables is a development stage enterprise and has no revenues and limited operating activities, the results of Renewables’ operations since the acquisition are presented within Other operating expense, net.
Renewables’ operating expenses are funded through contributions from its members. Since October 6, 2011, contributions from the non-controlling interest have totaled $1,400.

Amounts charged to costs and expenses for the allowance for uncollectible accounts are reflected in the Provision for bad debts. For the allowance for uncollectible accounts, deductions represent amounts written off which were deemed to not be collectible, net of any recoveries. Amounts charged to costs and expenses for the reserves for yarn quality claims are primarily reflected as a reduction of Net sales. For the reserve for yarn quality claims, deductions represent adjustments to either increase or decrease claims based on negotiated amounts or actual versus estimated claim differences. Amounts charged to other accounts primarily include the impact of translating the activity of the Company’s foreign affiliates from their respective local currencies to the U.S. dollar.

In fiscal year 2007, the Company purchased the texturing operations of Dillon Yarn Corporation (“Dillon”) which are included in the Company’s Polyester segment. The valuation of the customer list acquired was determined by estimating the discounted net earnings attributable to the customer relationships that were purchased after considering items such as possible customer attrition. Based on the length and trend of the projected cash flows, an estimated useful life of thirteen years was determined. The customer list is being amortized in a manner which reflects the expected economic benefit that will be received over its thirteen year life. The Dillon non-compete agreements are amortized using the straight line method over the periods currently covered by the agreements. The amortization expense is included within the Polyester segment’s depreciation and amortization expense.

Debt Refinancing
On May 24, 2012, the Company entered into a $150,000 senior secured credit facility (“ABL Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) and Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”). The ABL Facility consists of a $100,000 revolving credit facility (“ABL Revolver”) and a $50,000 term loan (“ABL Term Loan”). In addition, the Company entered into a $30,000 term loan (“Term B Loan”) with MacKay Shields LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, solely in its capacity as investment advisor or subadviser with investment authority for certain discretionary client accounts. Wilmington Trust National Association (“Wilmington Trust”) served as the administrative agent under the Term B Loan. The purpose of entering into the ABL Facility and the Term B Loan was to, among other things, refinance the Company’s then existing indebtedness. The ABL Facility has a maturity date of May 24, 2017. The Term B Loan had a maturity date of May 24, 2017, but as described below was prepaid in full subsequent to the current quarter. The Company has the ability to request that the borrowing capacity of the ABL Revolver be increased to as much as $150,000, at the discretion of the participating lenders.
ABL Facility
The ABL Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all owned or hereafter acquired property and assets, together with all proceeds and products thereof, of Unifi, Inc., Unifi Manufacturing, Inc. and its subsidiary guarantors (the “Loan Parties”) other than the assets to which the Loan Parties have a second-priority lien. It is also secured by a first priority perfected security interest in all of the stock of (or other ownership interests in) each of the Loan Parties (other than the Company) and certain subsidiaries of the Loan Parties; provided, that only 65% of the stock of (or other ownership interests in) first tier controlled foreign corporations are pledged, together with all proceeds and products thereof. The ABL Facility is further secured by a second-priority lien on the Company’s indirect limited liability company membership interest in Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”).
The ABL Facility includes representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that are usual and customary for financings of this type. Should excess availability under the ABL Revolver fall below the greater of $10,000 or 15% of maximum availability, an ABL Facility financial covenant requiring the Loan Parties to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio on a monthly basis of at least 1.05 to 1.0 becomes effective. In addition, the ABL Facility contains certain restricted payment and restricted investment provisions, including certain restrictions on the payment of dividends and share repurchases, unless excess availability is greater than $20,000 for the entire thirty day period prior to the making of such a distribution or excess availability is greater than $10,000 for the entire thirty day period prior to the making of such a distribution and the fixed charge coverage ratio for the most recent twelve month period (as calculated on a pro forma basis as if the payment and any revolving loans made in connection therewith were made on the first day of such period) is at least 1.0 to 1.0. As of December 23, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants, the excess availability under the ABL Revolver was $35,447 and the fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.51.
The Company’s ability to borrow under the ABL Revolver is limited to a borrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and is subject to certain conditions and limitations. ABL Revolver borrowings bear interest at the London Interbank Offer Rate (the “LIBOR Rate”) plus an applicable margin of 1.75% to 2.25% or the Base Rate plus an applicable margin of 0.75% to 1.25% with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis. The applicable margin is based on the average quarterly excess availability under the ABL Revolver. The Base Rate means the greatest of (i) the prime lending rate as publicly announced from time to time by Wells Fargo, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) the LIBOR rate plus 1.0%. There is also an unused line fee under the ABL Revolver of 0.25% to 0.375% of the unused line amount which is paid monthly.
The Company had $2,175 of standby letters of credit at December 23, 2012, none of which have been drawn upon.
Under the terms of the ABL Facility, the Company is required to hedge at least $50,000 of variable interest rate exposure so long as the outstanding principal of all indebtedness having variable interest rates exceeds $75,000. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ABL Revolver as of December 23, 2012, including the effects of all interest rate swaps, was 3.2%.
The ABL Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 2.75% or the Base Rate plus an applicable margin of 1.25% to 1.75% depending upon the Company’s level of excess borrowing availability with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis. The weighted average interest rate for the ABL Term Loan as of December 23, 2012, including the effects of all interest rate swaps, was 3.3%. The ABL Term Loan will be repaid in quarterly scheduled principal installments of $1,800 which commenced on September 1, 2012 and a balloon payment of $15,800 in May 2017. Subject to certain provisions, the ABL Term Loan may be prepaid at par, in whole or in part, at any time before the maturity date, at the Company’s discretion.

Term B Loan
The Term B Loan was secured by a first-priority lien on the Company’s limited liability company membership interest in PAL and a second-priority lien on the ABL Facility first-priority collateral described above. The Term B Loan also contained representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default comparable to those included in the ABL Facility.
The Term B Loan carried interest at LIBOR plus 7.50% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.25%) with interest payable monthly. The Term B Loan did not amortize and prepayments were only required if after-tax distributions from PAL were received by the Company (100% of such distributions up to the first $3,000 per calendar year and 50% thereafter), the Company sold all or any part of its membership interest in PAL or under certain other circumstances. The Company could prepay, in whole or in part, the Term B Loan at any time subject to certain provisions, with a call premium of 3% during the first year, 2% during the second year, 1% during the third year and at par thereafter.
Optional Prepayments
On October 17, 2012, the Company made a $2,200 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan and recorded a $114 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees. On July 2, 2012, the Company made a $4,515 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan and recorded a $242 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees.
Subsequent Events
On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (“First Amendment”) to the ABL Facility with its lenders in connection with the Company’s anticipated January 8, 2013 repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Term B Loan. The First Amendment modified the definition of fixed charges within the Credit Agreement and within the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio calculation to exclude any mandatory or optional prepayments of the Term B Loan made after December 25, 2012 and prior to February 4, 2013, in an amount not to exceed $13,800, subject to the satisfaction of certain specified conditions (which were met by the Company).
On December 26, 2012, the Company received a $7,807 cash distribution from PAL, $2,707 of which was deemed to be a tax distribution and $5,100 of which was a special dividend. As a result, the Company made a $2,550 mandatory prepayment of the Term B Loan on December 27, 2012 and will record a $127 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees. On January 8, 2013, the Company made an $11,250 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan, repaying in full the remaining amount outstanding. The Company will record a $563 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees.

14. Income Taxes
The effective income tax rates for the three month and six month periods ended December 23, 2012 and December 25, 2011 were based upon the estimated effective income tax rate applicable for the full year after giving effect to any significant items related specifically to interim periods. The effective income tax rate can be impacted over the fiscal year by the mix and timing of actual earnings from the Company’s U.S. operations and foreign sources versus annual projections and changes in foreign currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar. As a result, the Company’s effective tax rate may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly basis.
The Company’s income tax provision for the quarter ended December 23, 2012 resulted in tax expense of $2,216 with an effective tax rate of 50.0%. The Company’s income tax provision for the year-to-date period ended December 23, 2012 resulted in tax expense of $5,449 with an effective tax rate of 56.0%. The effective income tax rate for the periods are higher than the U.S. statutory rate due to foreign dividends taxed in the U.S., the timing of the Company’s recognition of higher taxable versus book income for an unconsolidated affiliate for which the Company maintains a full valuation allowance and losses in tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit could be recognized.
The Company’s income tax provision for the quarter ended December 25, 2011 resulted in tax expense of $1,806 with an effective rate of (30.0%). The Company’s income tax provision for the year-to-date period ended December 25, 2011 resulted in tax expense of $2,079, with an effective rate of (38.1%). The income tax rate for the periods are different from the U.S. statutory rate due to losses in tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit could be recognized and foreign dividends taxed in the U.S.
As of December 23, 2012, the Company’s valuation allowance includes $12,296 for reserves against certain deferred tax assets primarily related to equity investments and foreign tax credit carryforwards, as well as $2,670 for reserves against certain deferred tax assets of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries that are primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards.
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s liability for uncertain tax positions since June 24, 2012. The Company’s estimate for the potential outcome for any uncertain tax issue is judgmental. Management believes that any reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters have been adequately provided for. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved or when statutes of limitation on potential assessments expire.

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, as well as income tax returns in numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. The tax years subject to examination vary by jurisdiction. The Company regularly assesses the outcomes of both completed and ongoing examinations to ensure that the Company’s provision for income taxes is sufficient. Currently, the Company is subject to income tax examinations for U.S. federal income taxes for tax years 2005 through 2012, for foreign income taxes for tax years 2007 through 2012, and for state and local income taxes for tax years 2002 through 2012. The Internal Revenue Service is currently auditing the Company’s 2010 tax year.
15. Shareholders’ Equity

The reverse stock split became effective November 3, 2010. The Company had 20,060 shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the completion of the reverse stock split. The Company is authorized in its Restated Certificate of Incorporation to issue up to a total of 500,000 shares of common stock at a $0.10 par value per share which was unchanged by the amendment. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.
No dividends were paid in the last three fiscal years.
Effective July 26, 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to 3,333 shares of its common stock of which approximately 1,064 shares were subsequently repurchased. The repurchase program was suspended in November 2003. At December 23, 2012, there was remaining authority for the Company to repurchase approximately 2,269 shares of its common stock under the repurchase plan. The repurchase plan has no stated expiration or termination date.
The ABL Facility contains certain restricted payment and restricted investment provisions, including a restriction on the payment of dividends and share repurchases, unless excess availability is greater than $20,000 for the entire thirty day period prior to the making of such a distribution or excess availability is greater than $10,000 for the entire thirty day period prior to the making of such a distribution and the fixed charge coverage ratio for the most recent twelve month period (as calculated on a pro forma basis as if the payment and any revolving loans made in connection therewith were made on the first day of such period) is at least 1.0 to 1.0.
Subsequent Event
On January 22, 2013, the Company’s Board approved a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to $50,000 of the Company’s common stock. The new repurchase program replaced the prior stock repurchase program. Under the new repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions at such times, manner and prices as are determined by management, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. Repurchases are expected to be financed through cash from operations and borrowings under the Company’s ABL Revolver, and are subject to applicable limitations and requirements set forth in the ABL Facility. The repurchase program has no stated expiration or termination date. The Company may discontinue repurchases at any time that management determines additional purchases are not warranted. Under the repurchase program, there is no time limit for repurchase, nor is there a minimum number of shares intended to be repurchased or specific time frame in which the Company intends to repurchase. The Company has not repurchased any shares under the new repurchase program.
16. Stock Based Compensation
On October 29, 2008, the shareholders of the Company approved the 2008 Unifi, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2008 LTIP”). The 2008 LTIP authorized the issuance of up to 2,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the grant or exercise of stock options, including incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock, but not more than 1,000 shares may be issued as restricted stock. Option awards are granted with an exercise price not less than the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant. The 2008 LTIP replaced the 1999 Unifi, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (“1999 LTIP”), however, prior grants outstanding under the 1999 LTIP remain subject to that plan’s provisions.
Stock options subject to service conditions
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company issued 138 stock options under the 2008 LTIP to certain key employees. The stock options vest ratably over the required three year service period and have ten year contractual terms. The weighted average exercise price of the options was $11.15 per share. The Company used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the weighted average grant date fair value of $7.28 per share.
For options granted, the valuation models used the following weighted average assumptions:

The tax benefit realized from stock options exercised was not material for all periods presented.
Restricted stock units – non-employee directors
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Board authorized, and the Company issued, 30 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2008 LTIP to the Company’s non-employee directors. The RSUs became fully vested on the grant date. The RSUs convey no rights of ownership in shares of Company stock until such RSUs have been distributed to the grantee in the form of Company stock. The vested RSUs will be converted into an equivalent number of shares of Company common stock and distributed to the grantee following the grantee’s termination of service as a member of the Board. The grantee may elect to defer receipt of the shares of stock in accordance with the deferral options provided under the Unifi, Inc. Director Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company estimated the fair value of the award to be $13.57 per RSU based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the award grant date.

For the RSUs issued to non-employee directors, there were no unvested RSUs and no unrecognized compensation cost at December 23, 2012.
Restricted stock units – key employees
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company issued 32 RSUs from the 2008 LTIP to certain key employees. The RSUs are subject to a vesting restriction and convey no rights of ownership in shares of Company stock until such RSUs have vested and been distributed to the grantee in the form of Company stock. The RSUs vest ratably over a three year period with one third of the RSUs vesting on each of the following dates: August 25, 2013, July 25, 2014 and July 25, 2015. The RSUs will be converted into an equivalent number of shares of stock on each vesting date and distributed to the grantee, or the grantee may elect to defer the receipt of the shares of stock until separation from service. If after July 25, 2013 and prior to the final vesting date the grantee has a separation from service without cause for any reason other than the employee’s resignation, the remaining unvested RSUs will become fully vested and will be converted to an equivalent number of shares of stock and issued to the grantee. The Company estimated the grant-date fair value of the award to be $11.23 per RSU based on the fair value of the Company’s stock at the award grant date.

The calculation of earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of the Company’s common shares outstanding for the applicable period. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share presents the effect of all potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the respective period, unless the effect of doing so is anti-dilutive. Common share equivalents where the exercise price is above the average market price are excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share.
20. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company may use derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts or interest rate swaps to reduce its ongoing business exposures to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes.
Interest rate swaps
On February 15, 2011, the Company entered into a twenty-seven month, $25,000 interest rate swap with Bank of America to provide a hedge against the variability of cash flows (monthly interest expense payments) on LIBOR-based variable rate borrowings. The interest rate swap allows the Company to fix the LIBOR rate at 1.39% and terminates on May 17, 2013. On August 5, 2011, the Company entered into a twenty-one month, $10,000 interest rate swap with Bank of America to provide a hedge against the variability of cash flows related to additional variable rate borrowings. This interest rate swap allows the Company to fix the LIBOR rate at 0.75% and terminates on May 17, 2013. On May 18, 2012, the Company entered into a five year, $50,000 interest rate swap with Wells Fargo to provide a hedge against the variability of cash flows related to additional variable rate borrowings under the Company’s ABL Revolver and ABL Term Loan. It increases to $85,000 in May 2013 (when the $25,000 and $10,000 interest rate swaps with Bank of America terminate) and then decreases $5,000 per quarter beginning in August 2013 until the balance again reaches $50,000 in February 2015, where it will remain through May 2017. This interest rate swap allows the Company to fix the LIBOR rate at 1.06% and terminates on May 24, 2017.
The Company has designated the Bank of America swaps as cash flow hedges and determined that they are highly effective. At December 23, 2012, the amount of pre-tax loss recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income for these cash flow hedge derivative instruments was $145. For the year-to-date period ended December 23, 2012, the Company did not reclassify any gains (losses) related to these swaps from Accumulated other comprehensive income to Interest expense.
On November 26, 2012, the Company de-designated its Wells Fargo interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge resulting in the reclassification of a pre-tax unrealized loss of $92 from Accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense during the second quarter of fiscal year 2013. The Company expects to reclassify $551 of pre-tax unrealized loss from Accumulated other comprehensive income to Interest expense during the next twelve months. Concurrently, the Company recognized, as interest expense, a $73 gain on the fair value of this derivative.
Foreign currency forward contracts
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges for exposures related to certain sales, inventory purchases and equipment purchases which are denominated in currencies that are not its functional currency. As of December 23, 2012, the latest maturity date for all outstanding foreign currency forward contracts is during February 2013. These items are not designated as hedges by the Company and are marked-to-market each period and offset by the foreign exchange (gains) losses resulting from the underlying exposures of the foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

By entering into derivative instrument contracts, the Company exposes itself to counterparty credit risk. The Company attempts to minimize this risk by selecting counterparties with investment grade credit ratings, limiting the amount of exposure to any single counterparty and regularly monitoring its market position with each counterparty. The Company’s derivative instruments do not contain any credit risk related contingent features.

There were no financial instruments measured at fair value that were in an asset position at December 23, 2012. The Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Since its debt refinancing in May 2012, the Company believes that there have been no significant changes to its credit risk profile or the interest rates available to the Company for debt issuances with similar terms and average maturities and the Company estimates that the fair values of these long-term debt obligations approximate their carrying amounts. Other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The financial statement carrying amounts of these items approximate the fair value because of their short-term nature.

During the 2000-2004 tax years UDB paid a tax based on gross revenue to the Brazilian federal government, which included a tax on interest income. The interest income portion of the tax was successfully challenged in the Brazilian courts. The taxes paid plus accrued interest was refunded to UDB during the December 2011 and March 2012 quarters.
24. Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates and Variable Interest Entities
Parkdale America, LLC
In June 1997, the Company and Parkdale Mills, Inc. (“Mills”) entered into a Contribution Agreement that set forth the terms and conditions by which the two companies contributed all of the assets of their spun cotton yarn operations utilizing open-end and air-jet spinning technologies to create Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”). In exchange for its contribution, the Company received a 34% ownership interest in PAL which is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Effective January 1, 2012, Mills’ interest in PAL was assigned to Parkdale Incorporated. PAL’s fiscal year end is the Saturday nearest to December 31 and PAL is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for income tax reporting purposes. PAL is a producer of cotton and synthetic yarns for sale to the textile and apparel markets located throughout North and South America. PAL has 13 manufacturing facilities located primarily in the southeast region of the U.S. According to its most recently issued audited financial statements, PAL’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 80% of total revenues and 72% of total gross accounts receivable outstanding, with the largest customer accounting for approximately 37% of revenues and 37% of accounts receivable.
In August 2008, a federal government program commenced providing economic adjustment assistance to domestic users of upland cotton. The program offers a subsidy for cotton consumed in domestic production and the subsidy is paid the month after the eligible cotton is consumed. The subsidy must be used within eighteen months after the marketing year earned to purchase qualifying capital expenditures in the U.S. for production of goods from upland cotton. The marketing year is from August 1 to July 31. The program provided a subsidy of four cents per pound through July 31, 2012 and provides a subsidy of three cents per pound for six years thereafter. The Company recognizes its share of PAL’s income for the cotton subsidy when the cotton has been consumed and the qualifying assets have been acquired with an appropriate allocation methodology considering the dual criteria of the subsidy.
On October 28, 2009, PAL acquired certain real property and machinery and equipment, as well as entered into lease agreements for certain real property, machinery and equipment, which constituted most of the yarn manufacturing operations of Hanesbrands Inc. (“HBI”). PAL also entered into a yarn supply agreement with HBI to supply at least 95% of the yarn used in the manufacturing of its apparel products at any of its locations in North America, Central America or the Caribbean Basin for a six-year period with an option for HBI to extend the agreement for two additional three-year periods.

On March 30, 2011, PAL amended its revolving credit facility to increase the maximum borrowing capacity from $100,000 to $200,000 and extend the maturity date from October 28, 2012 to July 31, 2014. PAL’s revolving credit facility charges a variable interest rate based on either the prime rate or LIBOR rate plus an applicable percentage. PAL’s revolving credit facility also has covenants in place such as an annual limit on capital expenditures, a minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. PAL informed the Company that as of December 2012, PAL’s cash on-hand was $30,371, PAL had no outstanding borrowings on its revolving credit facility and PAL was in compliance with all debt covenants.
PAL is subject to price risk related to fixed-price yarn sales. To protect the gross margin of these sales, PAL may enter into cotton futures to manage changes in raw material costs. The derivative instruments used are listed and traded on an exchange and are thus valued using quoted prices classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. PAL may also designate certain futures contracts as cash flow hedges with the effective portion of gains and losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying transactions are recognized in income. As of December 2012, PAL’s accumulated other comprehensive gain was comprised of gains related to futures contracts totaling $42. Any ineffective portion of changes in fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings as they occur. All of PAL’s other derivatives not designated as hedges are marked-to-market each period with the changes in fair value recognized in current period earnings. In addition, PAL may enter into forward contracts for certain cotton purchases, which qualify as derivative instruments. However, these contracts meet the applicable criteria to qualify for the “normal purchases or normal sales” exemption.
As of December 23, 2012, the Company’s investment in PAL was $91,832 and shown within Investments in unconsolidated affiliates. The reconciliation between the Company’s share of the underlying equity of PAL and its investment is as follows:

The Company is the primary beneficiary of these entities based on the terms of the supply agreements discussed above. As a result, the Company has determined that UNF and UNF America are variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, should be consolidated in the Company’s financial results. As the Company purchases substantially all of the output from the two entities, and, as the two entities’ balance sheets constitutes 3% or less of the Company’s current assets, total assets and total liabilities, the Company has not included the accounts of UNF and UNF America in its consolidated financial statements. As of December 23, 2012, the Company’s combined investments in UNF and UNF America were $4,380 and are shown within Investments in unconsolidated affiliates. The financial results of UNF and UNF America are included in the Company’s financial statements with a one month lag, using the equity method of accounting and with intercompany profits eliminated in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy. Other than the supply agreements discussed above, the Company does not provide any other operating commitments or guarantees related to either UNF or UNF America.
Unaudited, condensed balance sheet and income statement information for the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates is presented in the following tables. As PAL is defined as significant, its information is separately disclosed. The operating results of Renewables are included through the end of the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2012, and thereafter Renewables results have been consolidated.

25. Commitments and Contingencies
Collective Bargaining Agreements
While employees of the Company’s foreign operations are generally unionized, none of the Company’s domestic labor force is currently covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
Environmental
On September 30, 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of the polyester filament manufacturing assets located in Kinston, North Carolina from INVISTA S.a.r.l. (“INVISTA”). The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99 year ground lease (“Ground Lease”) with E.I. DuPont de Nemours (“DuPont”). Since 1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program. The Corrective Action program requires DuPont to identify all potential areas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess the extent of containment at the identified AOCs and clean it up to comply with applicable regulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, the Company entered into a Lease Termination Agreement associated with conveyance of certain assets at Kinston to DuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved the Company of any future responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, with regard to the Company’s period of operation of the Kinston site. However, the Company continues to own a satellite service facility acquired in the INVISTA transaction that has contamination from DuPont’s operations and is monitored by DENR. This site has been remediated by DuPont and DuPont has received authority from DENR to discontinue remediation, other than natural attenuation. DuPont’s duty to monitor and report to DENR will be transferred to the Company in the future, at which time DuPont must pay the Company for seven years of monitoring and reporting costs and the Company will assume responsibility for any future remediation and monitoring of the site. At this time, the Company has no basis to determine if and when it will have any responsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCs or the extent of any potential liability for the same.

On August 30, 2012, a foreign subsidiary of the Company entered into an unsecured loan agreement with its unconsolidated affiliate U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”) and borrowed $1,250.

29. Subsequent Events
On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement to the ABL Facility with its lenders in connection with the Company’s anticipated January 8, 2013 repayment in full of outstanding amounts under the Term B Loan. The First Amendment modified the definition of fixed charges within the Credit Agreement and within the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio calculation to exclude any mandatory or optional prepayments of the Term B Loan made after December 25, 2012 and prior to February 4, 2013, in an amount not to exceed $13,800, subject to the satisfaction of certain specified conditions (which were met by the Company).
On December 26, 2012, the Company received a $7,807 cash distribution from PAL, $2,707 of which was deemed to be a tax distribution and $5,100 of which was a special dividend. As a result, the Company made a $2,550 mandatory prepayment of the Term B Loan on December 27, 2012 and will record a $127 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees. On January 8, 2013, the Company made an $11,250 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan, repaying in full the remaining amount outstanding. The Company will record a $563 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees.
The Company evaluated all events and material transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through such time as these statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and determined there were no items deemed reportable other than the items described above.

Business Overview
Unifi, Inc., a New York corporation formed in 1969 (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Unifi”) is a publicly-traded, multi-national manufacturing company. The Company processes and sells high-volume commodity products, specialized yarns designed to meet certain customer specifications, and premier value-added (“PVA”) yarns with enhanced performance characteristics. The Company sells fibers made from polyester and nylon filament to other yarn manufacturers, knitters and weavers that produce fabric for the apparel, hosiery, sock, home furnishing, automotive upholstery, industrial and other end-use markets. The Company’s polyester products include polyester polymer beads (“Chip”), partially oriented yarn (“POY”), textured, solution and package dyed, twisted and beamed yarns; each available in virgin or recycled varieties (made from both pre-consumer yarn waste and post-consumer waste, including plastic bottles). The Company’s nylon products include textured, solution dyed and covered spandex products. The Company maintains one of the industry’s most comprehensive product offerings and has ten manufacturing operations in four countries and participates in joint ventures in Israel and the United States (“U.S.”). The Company’s principal markets are located in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Central America, and South America. In addition, the Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in the People’s Republic of China (“China”) focused on the sale and promotion of the Company’s specialty and PVA products in the Asian textile market, primarily in China, as well as into Europe.
The Company has three operating segments which are also its reportable segments. Each reportable segment derives its revenues as follows:
|
·
|
The Polyester segment manufactures Chip, POY, textured, dyed, twisted and beamed yarns, virgin and recycled, with sales primarily to other yarn manufacturers, knitters and weavers that produce yarn and/or fabric for the apparel, hosiery, automotive upholstery, home furnishing, industrial and other end-use markets. The Polyester segment consists of manufacturing operations in the U.S. and El Salvador.
|
|
·
|

Recent Developments and Strategy
While the Company continues to face a challenging operating environment caused by global competition across the supply chain, inflation for its input costs and raw materials, and potential decreased demand caused by continuing weakness of the U.S. and global economies, the Company believes it has the appropriate strategies in place to succeed. The Company continues to focus on its key strategies: striving for continuous improvement across all operational and business processes; enriching its product mix by growing its higher margin PVA product portfolio and increasing sales of yarns with regional rules of origin requirements; and continuing its strategic penetration in global growth markets, such as China, Central America and Brazil. Going forward, the Company expects to continue its support of these strategies through investments in selected product and geographic growth opportunities related to its core business. The Company also anticipates utilizing its excess liquidity and operating cash flows to continue to supplement its deleveraging strategy and maximize shareholder value.
Deleveraging Strategy: On January 8, 2013, the Company paid in full the remaining amount outstanding on its then existing Term B Loan which had an interest rate of 8.75%. The prepayment was funded by a combination of distributions from Parkdale America, LLC (“PAL”) and domestic liquidity and reduced the Company’s weighted average interest rate to approximately 3.3% for its debt obligations currently outstanding.
Stock Repurchase Program: On January 22, 2013, the Company’s Board approved a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to $50,000 of the Company’s common stock. The new repurchase program replaced the prior stock repurchase program. Under the new repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions at such times, manner and prices as are determined by management, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. Repurchases are expected to be financed through cash from operations and borrowings under the Company’s ABL Revolver, and are subject to applicable limitations and requirements set forth in the ABL Facility. The repurchase program has no stated expiration or termination date. The Company may discontinue repurchases at any time that management determines additional purchases are not warranted. Under the repurchase program, there is no time limit for repurchase, nor is there a minimum number of shares intended to be repurchased or specific time frame in which the Company intends to repurchase.
PVA: The Company remains committed to growing the business for its value-added products and believes its research and development work with brands and retailers continues to create new, world-wide sales opportunities as the Company raises the visibility of REPREVE®, the Company’s umbrella brand for its recycled products (made from both pre-consumer yarn waste and post-consumer waste, including plastic bottles), as a consumer brand. For the current quarter, the Company’s PVA products represented approximately 19% of its consolidated net sales and REPREVE® continues to grow at a faster pace than other PVA products. The Company believes that it can continue to increase its PVA sales as a percentage of its overall sales volume and grow its global PVA sales to create overall mix enrichment and margin gains.
X Games Aspen 2013: As part of its efforts to market REPREVE® to consumers, the Company recently announced that it will be the official recycling partner of ESPN at the X Games Aspen 2013. The Company believes that this will create awareness for REPREVE® among consumers and will also raise its visibility and credibility among brands and retailers. As REPREVE® fibers are in many well-known and respected winter sports-related brands, including Patagonia, The North Face and Polartec, the Company believes that the X Games in Aspen will be an ideal venue to help consumers understand the range of products made with REPREVE® recycled fibers, raise positive awareness for recycled polyester and establish REPREVE® as a leading ingredient in sustainable products.
Brazil: The strengthening of the Brazilian Real during the latter half of calendar year 2011 began to negatively impact the competitiveness of the local apparel supply chain by making imports of competing fibers, garments and apparel more competitively priced. Although the Real has subsequently returned to more normalized levels, the trade environment, the imports of fiber, fabric and finished goods continue to place pressure on the domestic supply chain in Brazil and have made it difficult for the Company’s Brazilian operation to remain competitive for the lower end of its textured yarn product offerings. The average inflation rate of 5% to 7% in Brazil has also negatively impacted the Company’s converting costs at a time when it is difficult to raise selling prices while competing against the influx of cheaper imported goods. The Company expects that the combination of implementing process improvements and manufacturing efficiency gains to help lower per unit costs, and aggressively pursuing a mix enrichment strategy leading to a more defensible product mix, as well as the benefits of the Real remaining at more normalized levels and the initiatives taken by the Brazilian government to support domestic yarn manufacturers, will allow the Company to recapture lost volumes and margins.
33
China: Sales volumes for both the December 2012 quarter and year-to-date periods were lower than expected as demand from a significant customer was negatively impacted by high inventory levels throughout that customer’s supply chain. This decline in volume was partially offset by several new development programs realized during the periods, however, these programs were at lower than average margins. The Company remains optimistic about its business in China as the high levels of supply chain inventory for the significant customer become depleted and the projected growth in the region for the Company’s PVA products is expected to continue.
Investment in Central America: The Central American Free Trade Agreement (“CAFTA”) region, which continues to be a competitive alternative to Asian supply chains, has in recent years maintained its share of synthetic apparel supply to U.S. retailers and continues to see ongoing investments being made. The share of synthetic apparel versus cotton continues to increase and has provided growth for the consumption of synthetic yarns within the CAFTA region. The recently completed installation of additional texturing capacity at the Company’s plant in El Salvador is running at or near capacity and will enable the Company to take advantage of the long-term volume opportunities in this region. In addition, legislation was passed in the U.S. Congress on August 3, 2012 that provides a technical correction to the sewing thread provision in the CAFTA. The amended CAFTA, which took effect on October 13, 2012, closed a loophole that allowed for the use of non-originating sewing thread in the assembly of textiles and apparel under the trade agreement. The technical modification clarifies that certain single ply synthetic sewing thread is required to be produced in the United States or CAFTA region in order for goods to qualify for preferential tariff treatment. All other sewing threads already enjoyed the benefits of yarn forward rules of origin under the free trade agreement. The passage of this amendment is important to the Company and its operations in Central America, and is expected to result in improvements for the Company’s twisted yarn and sewing thread business.
Raw Materials: Polyester raw material prices have been steadily increasing since the start of fiscal year 2013 and, although they are still lower than the December 2011 quarter, they were, on average, approximately 10% higher in the December 2012 quarter when compared to the September 2012 quarter. These costs are also expected to increase slightly in the March 2013 quarter and may negatively impact the Company’s future margins as the timing of these raw material cost increases could limit the recovery of margin during this rising raw material environment. In addition, the polymer pricing gap between the U.S. and Asia has averaged $0.12 per pound throughout fiscal year 2013 and will continue to place additional pressures on the Company’s polyester sales volume and margins within the lower end of the Company’s product mix that typically competes with imported yarns.
Company Outlook: Based on a shortened shipping quarter due to the timing of the holiday season, anticipated increases in raw material prices, the challenging conditions in Brazil and the marketing expenses related to the X Games Aspen 2013 sponsorship, the Company believes that its gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA for the March 2013 fiscal quarter will be slightly less than the amounts reported for the December 2012 quarter. During the June 2013 fiscal quarter, the Company expects operating profit improvements primarily due to anticipated higher sales volumes and gross margin improvements.

Consolidated Net Sales
Net sales for the December 2012 quarter increased by $4,961, or 3.0%, as compared to the prior year December quarter. Overall, sales volume increased by 9.0% as a result of volume increases in all of the Company’s business segments as compared to the prior year December quarter. The increase in sales volume was partially offset by a decrease in the overall weighted average selling price of 6.0%. The weighted average selling price decreased in all reportable segments as discussed below.
Consolidated Gross Profit
Gross profit for the December 2012 quarter increased by $5,809, or 53.4%, as compared to the prior year December quarter. The improvement in gross profit was primarily due to improved conversion margin (net sales less raw material costs) and increased sales volumes in the Company’s Polyester segment. Improvements in Polyester segment unit conversion margin are a result of growth in the Company’s PVA products and lower raw material prices than the prior year, which allowed the Company to recover previously lost margin. Gross profit for the International segment was slightly higher than the prior year quarter due to higher sales volumes for the Company’s Brazilian and Chinese subsidiaries. Gross profit for the Nylon segment declined over the prior year quarter as a result of lower conversion margin primarily attributable to a lower margin sales mix.
Polyester Segment Gross Profit
The components of segment gross profit, each component as a percentage of net sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior year amounts for the Polyester segment are as follows:

Polyester segment net sales increased 2.3% as compared to the prior year quarter as volumes increased 6.7% and the weighted average selling price decreased 4.4%. The decrease in weighted average sales price was a result of decreases in raw material prices in the supply chain. The increase in gross profit of $6,176 was primarily due to higher conversion margins resulting from growth in PVA volume and lower raw material prices which allowed the segment to recapture previously lost margins. Volume increased over the prior year quarter due to improved demand in both the U.S. apparel supply chain and the U.S. automotive market. Unit manufacturing costs were lower as a result of efficiency gains accomplished through process improvements and improved utilization rates.
The Polyester segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 56.6% and 50.5% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, compared to 56.9% and 20.8% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, respectively.
37
Outlook:
The Company expects Polyester segment gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 to be negatively impacted by a shortened shipping quarter due to the timing of the holiday shutdown schedules for the majority of customers. In addition, the Company expects a slight raw material cost increase during the third quarter, which may impact conversion margins, until the selling prices can be adjusted. The increased raw material costs and pricing pressures caused by imported products may negatively impact the segment’s margins.
Nylon Segment Gross Profit

Nylon segment net sales increased 1.9% compared to the prior year quarter as volumes increased 8.2% and weighted average selling price declined 6.3%. The decline in weighted average sales price is a result of decreases in raw material prices and a lower priced sales mix. Volume improved primarily as a result of increased demand in the socks and seamless apparel market categories. Gross profit declined $511 primarily as a result of a lower margin sales mix.
The Nylon segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 23.0% and 24.1% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, compared to 23.2% and 41.6% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, respectively.
Outlook:
The Company expects Nylon segment gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 to be negatively impacted by a shortened shipping quarter due to the timing of the holiday shutdown schedules for the majority of customers.

International segment net sales increased 6.1% compared to the prior year quarter as volumes increased 15.5% and weighted average selling price declined 9.4% primarily due to a lower priced sales mix in the Chinese operation and the currency translation effect on Brazil’s revenues attributable to the weakening of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar. Gross profit for the Company’s International segment increased $144 as a result of improved volumes in both the Brazilian and Chinese operations. Sales volume in the Brazilian operation increased 12.9% as compared to the prior year period due to improved demand in the Brazilian market. In the prior year quarter, the Brazilian operation was negatively impacted by reduced demand due to increased imports of competing yarn, fabric and garments as imports became more competitive alternatives resulting from the appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar. On a local currency basis, gross profit for the Brazilian operation increased 6.7% compared to the prior year quarter primarily as a result of the volume improvement and lower unit manufacturing costs due to increased capacity utilization. In U.S. dollars, gross profit for the Brazilian operation decreased 6.9% compared to the prior year quarter due to currency translation.
Sales volume in the Chinese operation increased 25.5% versus the prior year quarter primarily due to the partial recovery in demand from one large customer and due to the addition of new sales programs.
The International segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 20.4% and 25.4% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, compared to 19.9% and 37.6% for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, respectively.
38
Outlook:
The Company expects that the challenging market and trade conditions for its Brazilian subsidiary will continue during its third fiscal quarter with improvements expected during the fourth fiscal quarter as the benefits of various mix enrichment, process improvement and other strategic initiatives are realized. The Company also expects its Chinese operation to continue to be negatively impacted during the third quarter by lower sales volumes to one of its larger customers as it continues working through significant inventory in their overall supply chain. However, the Company expects sales volume for this customer to return as well as expects to realize the benefits of new sales programs during the fourth fiscal quarter.
Consolidated Selling General & Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses increased in total and as a percentage of net sales for the current fiscal quarter when compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily a result of higher fringe benefit costs related to certain variable compensation plans and increased expenses related to various on-going branding and REPREVE® consumer marketing initiatives. These increases were partially offset by reductions in certain non-cash compensation plans, other employee related costs and administrative expenses.
Outlook:
The Company expects that SG&A expenses will increase during the March 2013 quarter as a result of the timing of the recognition of marketing expenses related to its sponsorship of the X Games Aspen 2013, and then return to more normalized levels in the June fiscal quarter.
Consolidated Provision for Bad Debts
The provision for bad debt expense was $73 for the December 2012 quarter as compared to $357 for the prior year quarter. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, there were no significant changes in the Company’s allowance for uncollectible accounts, as the aging of customer receivables and provisions for certain risk accounts remained relatively unchanged from September 23, 2012.

Consolidated Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense decreased from $3,727 for the prior year quarter to $1,217 for the current year quarter. This favorable decline in interest expense was due to a lower average outstanding debt balance and a lower weighted average interest rate. The debt balance decreases were caused by the completion of the Company’s debt refinancing in May 2012, subsequent prepayments of the Company’s Term B Loan obligations and scheduled payments on the ABL Term Loan. The weighted average interest rate of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations declined from 10.2% for the prior year period to 4.1% for the current year period as a result of the significantly lower borrowing rates realized from the debt refinancing in May 2012.
Outlook:
Throughout the remainder of the current fiscal year, the Company believes that there will be sufficient operating cash flows to allow for the further reduction of its outstanding debt obligations and, as a result, will allow the Company to realize cash interest expense savings for these future periods when compared to current levels. After considering the Company’s prepayment in full of the Term B Loan subsequent to the current quarter, the Company expects its weighted average interest rate to be approximately 3.3% for its outstanding debt obligations.
Other Non-Operating Income
For the three months ended December 25, 2011, Other non-operating income consisted of a $1,479 gain from the Company’s Brazilian operation related to a refund of non-income related taxes plus interest.
Consolidated Earnings from Unconsolidated Affiliates
For the December 2012 quarter, the Company generated $4,433 of income before income taxes, of which $1,258 was generated from its investments in unconsolidated affiliates. For the three months ended December 23, 2012, earnings from the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates were $1,258 compared to $844 for the three months ended December 25, 2011. During these periods, the Company’s 34% share of PAL’s earnings was relatively flat from $667 in the prior year quarter to $655 in the current quarter. PAL ended the current quarter with $5,066 of deferred rebate benefits (the Company’s 34% share is $1,722) and expects to recognize these benefits in its earnings in future periods as the qualifying capital expenditures are made. The remaining change in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates relates primarily to the improved operating results of UNF and UNF America which was primarily driven by higher utilization rates.
39
Consolidated Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax provision for the quarter ended December 23, 2012 resulted in tax expense of $2,216, with an effective tax rate of 50.0%. The effective income tax rate for the period is higher than the U.S. statutory rate due to foreign dividends taxed in the U.S., the timing of the Company’s recognition of higher taxable versus book income for an unconsolidated affiliate for which the Company maintains a full valuation allowance and losses in tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit could be recognized.
The Company’s income tax provision for the quarter ended December 25, 2011 resulted in tax expense of $1,806, with an effective rate of (30.0%). The income tax rate for the period is different than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to losses in tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit could be recognized and foreign dividends taxed in the U.S.
Outlook:
Based on current forecasts and assumptions, the Company expects to fully utilize its federal net operating loss carryforwards by the end of fiscal year 2013. For future periods, the Company expects that its cash payments for taxes will increase versus the amounts paid in previous periods.
Consolidated Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Unifi, Inc.
Net income attributable to Unifi, Inc. for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013 was $2,426, or $0.12 per basic share, compared to a net loss attributable to Unifi, Inc. of $7,608, or $0.38 per basic share, for the prior year period. As discussed above, the Company’s increased profitability was primarily due to higher gross profits, a reduction in net interest expense, the absence of a loss on the previously held equity interest in Repreve Renewables recorded in the prior year quarter, and an increase in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses, a reduction in other non-operating income, and an increase in the provision for income taxes.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 23, 2012 increased $4,824 to $12,156 versus $7,332 for the prior year period. As discussed above, the $5,809 increase in gross profit is the primary reason for the current quarter over prior year quarter improvement.

Consolidated Net Sales
Net sales for the December 23, 2012 year-to-date period increased by $6,848, or 2.0%, as compared to the prior year December year-to-date period. Overall, sales volume increased by 7.9% with volume improvements in all of the Company’s reportable segments. The increase in overall sales volume was partially offset by a decrease in the overall weighted average selling price of 5.9% primarily due to a lower weighted average selling price in all reportable segments.
Consolidated Gross Profit
Gross profit for the December 23, 2012 year-to-date period increased by $11,999, or 52.8%, as compared to the prior year December year-to-date period. Gross profit improvements were primarily attributable to increased gross profit in the Polyester segment as a result of increased unit conversion margin and increased sales volumes. In addition, gross profit increased in the International segment as compared to the prior year-to-date period primarily as a result of improved sales volume in both the Brazilian and Chinese operations. The Nylon segment gross profit was lower than the prior year-to-date period primarily due to lower conversion margin partially offset by higher sales volume.
Polyester Segment Gross Profit
The components of segment gross profit, each component as a percentage of net sales and the percentage increase or decrease over the prior year amounts for the Polyester segment are as follows:

Polyester segment net sales increased 1.4% compared to the prior year-to-date period as volumes increased 4.0% and the weighted average selling price decreased 2.6%. Volume increased over the prior year-to-date period due to improved demand in both the U.S. apparel supply chain and the U.S. automotive market and the impact of inventory destocking across the apparel supply chain in the prior year-to-date period. The increase in gross profit of $10,693 was primarily a result of higher conversion margin due to lower raw material prices which allowed for the recovery of previously lost margins and increased sales volume. Growth of PVA product sales also contributed to the improvement in margin. Unit manufacturing costs were lower as a result of efficiency gains accomplished through process improvements and improved utilization rates.
The Polyester segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 55.2% and 47.9% for the year-to-date period of fiscal year 2013, compared to 55.5% and 26.2% for the prior year-to-date period of fiscal year 2012, respectively.

Nylon segment net sales decreased 0.3% compared to the prior year-to-date period as volumes increased 3.0% and weighted average selling price declined 3.3%. Volume improved primarily as a result of increased demand in the socks and seamless apparel market categories. The decline in gross profit of $793 was primarily due to a decrease in conversion margin as a result of a lower margin sales mix partially offset by increased sales volume.
The Nylon segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 23.1% and 23.3% for the year-to-date period of fiscal year 2013, compared to 23.6% and 39.1% for the prior year-to-date period of fiscal year 2012, respectively.

International segment net sales increased 6.1% compared to the prior year-to-date period as volumes increased 19.8% and weighted average selling price declined 13.7%. Gross profit for the Company’s International segment increased $2,099 as a result of improved volumes in both the Brazilian and Chinese operations. Sales volume in the Brazilian operation increased 12.5% as compared to the prior year-to-date period due to improved demand in the Brazilian market. In the prior year period, the Brazilian operation was negatively impacted by reduced demand due to increased imports of competing yarn, fabric and garments as imports became more competitive alternatives resulting from the appreciation of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar. On a local currency basis, gross profit for the Brazilian operation increased 44.1% from the prior year period primarily as a result of the improved volumes and improved unit conversion margin.
Sales volume in the Chinese operation increased 54.1% versus the prior year-to-date period primarily due to a partial recovery in demand from one large customer and to the commercialization of certain development projects during the current year-to-date period. The new sales programs were, however, at a lower weighted average price and gross margin.
The International segment net sales and gross profit as a percentage of total consolidated amounts were 21.7% and 28.8% for the year-to-date period of fiscal year 2013, compared to 20.9% and 34.7% for the prior year-to-date period of fiscal year 2012, respectively.
43
Consolidated Selling General & Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses increased in total and as a percentage of net sales for the year-to-date period of fiscal 2013 when compared to the prior year-to-date period. The increase was primarily a result of higher fringe benefit costs related to certain variable compensation plans, increased expenses related to various on-going branding and REPREVE® consumer marketing initiatives, and professional fees. These increases were partially offset by reductions in other employee related costs and administrative expenses.
Consolidated Provision for Bad Debts
The provision for bad debt expense was $183 for the December 2012 year-to-date period as compared to $562 for the prior year-to-date period. During the year-to-date period of fiscal year 2013, there were no significant changes in the Company’s allowance for uncollectible accounts, as the aging of customer receivables and provisions for certain risk accounts remained relatively unchanged from June 24, 2012.
Consolidated Other Operating Expense, Net

Consolidated Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense decreased from $7,460 for the prior year-to-date period to $2,537 for the current year-to-date period. This favorable decline in interest expense was due to a lower average outstanding debt balance and a lower weighted average interest rate. The debt balance decreases were caused by the Company’s prepayments of the 11.5% Senior Secured Notes due May 2014 during the prior fiscal year-to-date period, the completion of the Company’s debt refinancing in May 2012, subsequent prepayments of the Company’s Term B Loan obligations, and scheduled payments made on the ABL Term Loan. The weighted average interest rate of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations declined from 10.1% for the prior year-to-date period to 4.1% for the current year-to-date period as a result of the significantly lower borrowing rates realized from the debt refinancing in May 2012.
Other Non-Operating Income
For the six months ended December 25, 2011, Other non-operating income consists of a $1,479 gain from the Company’s Brazilian operation related to a refund of non-income related taxes plus interest.
Consolidated Earnings from Unconsolidated Affiliates
For the December 2012 year-to-date period, the Company generated $9,724 of income before income taxes, of which $1,929 was generated from its investments in unconsolidated affiliates. For the six months ended December 23, 2012, earnings from the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates were $1,929 compared to $4,303 for the six months ended December 25, 2011. During these periods, the Company’s 34% share of PAL’s earnings decreased from $4,494 to $697 primarily caused by margin pressures related to the softness in the cotton apparel market and differences related to the timing of revenue recognition under the Farm Bill’s economic adjustment payments program, as well as the rebate level dropping from four cents per pound to three cents per pound in August 2012. The remaining change in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates relates primarily to the improved operating results of UNF and UNF America which was primarily driven by higher utilization rates.
Consolidated Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax provision for the six months ended December 23, 2012 resulted in tax expense of $5,449, with an effective tax rate of 56.0%. The effective income tax rate for the period is higher than the U.S. statutory rate due to foreign dividends taxed in the U.S., the timing of the Company’s recognition of higher taxable versus book income for an unconsolidated affiliate for which the Company maintains a full valuation allowance, and losses in tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit could be recognized.
The Company’s income tax provision for the six months ended December 25, 2011 resulted in tax expense of $2,079, with an effective rate of (38.1%). The income tax rate for the period is different than the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to losses in tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit could be recognized and foreign dividends taxed in the U.S.
Consolidated Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Unifi, Inc.
Net income attributable to Unifi, Inc. for the year-to-date period of fiscal year 2013 was $4,720, or $0.23 per basic share, compared to net loss attributable to Unifi, Inc. of $7,322, or $0.36 per basic share, for the prior year-to-date period. As discussed above, the Company’s increased profitability was primarily due to higher gross profits, lower net interest expense, and the absence of a loss on the previously held equity interest in Repreve Renewables recorded in the prior year-to-date period, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses, higher other operating expense, net, a reduction in other non-operating income, lower earnings from unconsolidated affiliates and an increase in the provision for income taxes.
44
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended December 23, 2012 increased $10,507 to $25,981 versus $15,474 for the prior year period. As discussed above, the $11,999 increase in gross profit is the primary reason for the improvement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary capital requirements are for debt service, working capital and capital expenditures. The Company’s primary sources of capital are cash generated from operations and borrowings available under its ABL Revolver. For the six months ended December 23, 2012, cash generated from operations was $24,739 and as of December 23, 2012, excess availability under the ABL Revolver was $35,447.
As of December 23, 2012, all of the Company’s debt obligations, with the exception of a related party term loan, were guaranteed by domestic subsidiaries while a substantial portion of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries. For the Company’s U.S., Brazilian and other foreign subsidiaries, the following table presents a summary of cash and cash equivalents, liquidity, working capital and total debt obligations as of December 23, 2012:

The Company has plans to repatriate approximately $20,730 of future cash flows generated from its operations in Brazil and has a deferred tax liability of approximately $7,255 to reflect the additional income tax that would be due as a result of these current plans. As of December 23, 2012, the $81,431 of undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries was deemed to be permanently reinvested and any applicable U.S. federal income taxes and foreign withholding taxes have not been provided on these earnings.

Debt Refinancing
On May 24, 2012, the Company entered into the ABL Facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) and Bank of America, N.A. The ABL Facility consists of the $100,000 ABL Revolver and a $50,000 ABL Term Loan. In addition, the Company entered into a $30,000 Term B Loan. The purpose of entering into the ABL Facility and the Term B Loan was, among other things, to refinance the Company’s then existing indebtedness. The ABL Facility has a maturity date of May 24, 2017. The Term B Loan had a maturity date of May 24, 2017, but as described below was prepaid in full subsequent to the current quarter. The Company has the ability to request that the borrowing capacity of the ABL Revolver be increased to as much as $150,000.
The ABL Facility is secured by substantially all assets of the Company. The ABL Facility is further secured by a second-priority lien on the Company’s membership interest in PAL. The ABL Facility includes representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default that are usual and customary for financings of this type. Should excess availability under the ABL Revolver fall below the greater of $10,000 or 15% of maximum availability, a financial covenant requires the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio on a monthly basis of at least 1.05 to 1.0. In addition, the ABL Facility contains provisions restricting certain payments and investments, including certain restrictions on the payment of dividends and share repurchases. As of December 23, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants, the availability under the ABL Revolver was $35,447 and the fixed charge coverage ratio was 1.51.
45
The Company’s ability to borrow under the ABL Revolver is limited to a borrowing base equal to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory and is subject to certain conditions and limitations. ABL Revolver borrowings bear interest at the London Interbank Offer Rate (the “LIBOR Rate”) plus an applicable margin with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis.
Under the terms of the ABL Facility, the Company is required to hedge at least $50,000 of variable interest rate exposure so long as the outstanding principal of all indebtedness having variable interest rates exceeds $75,000. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the ABL Revolver as of December 23, 2012, including the effects of all interest rate swaps, was 3.2%.
The ABL Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin with interest currently being paid on a monthly basis. The weighted average interest rate for the ABL Term Loan as of December 23, 2012, including the effects of all interest rate swaps, was 3.3%. The ABL Term Loan will be repaid in quarterly scheduled principal installments of $1,800 which commenced on September 1, 2012 and a balloon payment of $15,800 in May 2017. Subject to certain conditions, the ABL Term Loan may be prepaid at par, in whole or in part, at any time before the maturity date.
The Term B Loan was secured by a first-priority lien on the Company’s membership interest in PAL and a second-priority lien on substantially all assets of the Company. The Term B Loan also contained representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default comparable to those included in the ABL Facility. The Term B Loan carried interest at LIBOR plus 7.50% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.25%) with interest payable monthly. The Term B Loan did not amortize and prepayments were only required in certain circumstances. Subject to certain conditions, the Company could prepay the Term B Loan at any time, in whole or in part, with a call premium of 3% during the first year, 2% during the second year, 1% during the third year and at par thereafter.
Optional Prepayments
On October 17, 2012, the Company made a $2,200 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan and recorded a $114 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees. On July 2, 2012, the Company made a $4,515 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan and recorded a $242 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees.
Subsequent Events
On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement (“First Amendment”) to the ABL Facility with its lenders in connection with the Company’s anticipated January 8, 2013 repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Term B Loan. The First Amendment modified the definition of fixed charges within the Credit Agreement and within the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio calculation to exclude any mandatory or optional prepayments of the Term B Loan made after December 25, 2012 and prior to February 4, 2013, in an amount not to exceed $13,800, subject to the satisfaction of certain specified conditions (which were met by the Company).
On December 26, 2012, the Company received a $7,807 cash distribution from PAL, $2,707 of which was deemed to be a tax distribution and $5,100 of which was a special dividend. As a result, the Company made a $2,550 mandatory prepayment of the Term B Loan on December 27, 2012 and will record a $127 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees. On January 8, 2013, the Company made an $11,250 optional prepayment of the Term B Loan, repaying in full the remaining amount outstanding. The Company will record a $563 charge for the early extinguishment of debt related to the 3% call premium and the associated write-off of debt financing fees.
Related Party Term Loan
On August 30, 2012, a foreign subsidiary of the Company entered into an unsecured loan agreement with its unconsolidated affiliate U.N.F. Industries Ltd. (“UNF”) and borrowed $1,250. The loan bears interest at 3% with interest payable semi-annually. The loan does not amortize and has a maturity date of August 30, 2014 at which time the entire principal balance is due. The Company expects to repay the loan from a planned distribution from UNF once the distribution is approved by the Israeli government.

On November 19, 2012, the Company entered into a capital lease with Salem Leasing Corporation for certain transportation equipment. The amount due under the fifteen year term of the lease is $1,234, and payments are made monthly. The implicit annual interest rate under the lease is 4.64%.

Working Capital
The following table presents a summary of the components of the Company’s Adjusted Working Capital and the reconciliation from Adjusted Working Capital to Working Capital:

Excludes accrued interest
|
Working capital decreased from $166,485 as of June 24, 2012 to $166,014 as of December 23, 2012 primarily due to lower amounts for Adjusted Working Capital offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents. The $4,507 decrease in the Company’s Adjusted Working Capital was attributable to the favorable changes in receivables, net and inventories partially offset by decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The $10,618 decline in receivables and the $9,818 decline in accounts payables relate primarily to lower sales and purchase activity, respectively, for the Company’s U.S. and Brazilian subsidiaries at the end of the current quarter, which was caused by the timing of the holiday season shutdown as it relates to the Company’s quarter-end. The $5,649 decrease in inventories was predominantly driven by lower on-hand raw material and finished goods units for the Company’s domestic and Brazilian operations. The $1,842 decrease in accrued expenses is primarily due to decreases in various domestic payroll accruals, accrued utilities due to lower per unit electricity costs, and domestic property taxes due to the timing of annual payments.
Outlook:
While there remains uncertainty concerning changes in raw material costs, fluctuations in the exchange rates for foreign currencies, and the levels of sales and production volumes leading up to the holiday season, the Company believes that during the upcoming quarter there will be no material impact on liquidity relative to Adjusted Working Capital.
Capital Expenditures
In addition to its normal working capital requirements, the Company requires cash to fund capital expenditures. During the first six months of fiscal year 2013, the Company spent $2,872 on capital expenditures compared to $3,259 for the prior year period. The Company estimates that its on-going annual capital expenditure requirements are approximately $10,000 to $12,000, which is inclusive of approximately $6,000 to $8,000 of annual maintenance capital expenditures, with the remainder representing capital expenditures focused primarily on improving the Company’s flexibility and capabilities around producing PVA products. The Company may incur additional capital expenditures as it pursues new opportunities to expand its production capabilities or to further streamline its manufacturing processes.
Other than the scheduled maturities and mandatory prepayments of debt required under its existing debt obligations, the Company may, from time to time, elect to repay additional amounts borrowed under the ABL Facility. These optional repayments of debt may come from the operating cash flows of the business or other sources and will depend upon the Company’s strategy, prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors, and the amounts involved may be material.
47
Stock Repurchase Program
On January 22, 2013, the Company’s Board approved a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to $50,000 of the Company’s common stock. The new repurchase program replaced the prior stock repurchase program, which had authorized the repurchase of up to 3,333 shares of common stock, but which had been suspended since November 2003. Under the new repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions at such times, manner and prices as are determined by management, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. Repurchases are expected to be financed through cash from operations and borrowings under the Company’s ABL Revolver, and are subject to applicable limitations and requirements set forth in the ABL Facility. The repurchase program has no stated expiration or termination date. The Company may discontinue repurchases at any time that management determines additional purchases are not warranted. Under the repurchase program, there is no time limit for repurchase, nor is there a minimum number of shares intended to be repurchased or specific time frame in which the Company intends to repurchase. The Company has not repurchased any shares under the new purchase program.
Liquidity Summary
Historically, the Company has met its working capital, capital expenditures and debt service requirements from its cash flows from operations. The Company currently believes that its existing cash balances, cash generated by operations, together with borrowings available under the ABL Revolver, will enable the Company to comply with the terms of its indebtedness and meet the foreseeable liquidity requirements. Domestically, the Company’s cash balances, cash generated by operations and borrowings available under the ABL Revolver continue to be sufficient to fund its domestic operating activities and cash commitments for its investing and financing activities. For its foreign operations, the Company expects its existing cash balances and cash generated by operations will provide the needed liquidity to fund its foreign operating activities and any foreign investing activities, such as future capital expenditures.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities consists of the following:

The $5,266 increase in receipts from customers for the current year-to-date period when compared to the prior year-to-date period is primarily driven by increased net sales caused primarily by higher sales volumes across all segments. Other receipts include interest income and other miscellaneous items. The $2,568 decrease in payments to suppliers and other operating costs for the current year-to-date period when compared to the prior year-to-date period is primarily driven by lower average inventory levels partially offset by reductions in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The $1,029 decline in payments for salaries, wages and benefits is primarily due to lower variable compensation payments partially offset by increased payments for employee costs. The decline in payments for interest was due to both a lower average outstanding debt balance and a lower weighted average interest rate. Taxes paid by the Company increased $2,441 primarily due to increased tax payments related to the Company’s Brazilian and domestic operations. Other payments include operating expenses for Renewables and other miscellaneous items.
Cash Used in Investing Activities and Financing Activities
The Company utilized $4,491 for net investing activities and utilized $15,859 for net financing activities during the December 2012 year-to-date period. The Company spent $2,872 on capital expenditures. The Company reduced its overall long-term debt by $14,870 including $6,715 in optional prepayments on the Term B Loan, $3,600 in scheduled principal payments on the ABL Term Loan, $7,000 in net payments against the ABL Revolver, partially offset by $1,250 in proceeds received from the related party term loan and additional capital lease obligations.
The Company utilized $3,780 in net investing activities and utilized $9,708 in net financing activities during the six month period ended December 2011. The primary cash outlays for investing and financing activities during the six month period ended December 2011 included $10,288 to redeem a portion of the 2014 11.5% Senior secured notes, $3,259 in capital expenditures and $360 in investments in Repreve Renewables, LLC, partially offset by $181 in proceeds from the sale of assets and $120 in capital contributions from non-controlling interest.
48
Contractual Obligations
The Company has assumed various financial obligations and commitments in the normal course of its operations and financing activities. Financial obligations are considered to represent known future cash payments that the Company is required to make under existing contractual arrangements, such as debt and lease agreements. As of December 23, 2012, except for scheduled maturities, optional prepayments or any mandatory prepayments of debt required under the existing debt obligations, there have been no material changes in the scheduled maturities of the Company’s contractual obligations as disclosed in the table under the heading “Contractual Obligations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2012. Subsequent to December 23, 2012, as described above, the Company prepaid in full amounts due under the Term B Loan.
Contingencies
Environmental
On September 30, 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of the polyester filament manufacturing assets located in Kinston, North Carolina from INVISTA. The land for the Kinston site was leased pursuant to a 99 year ground lease (“Ground Lease”) with E.I. DuPont de Nemours (“DuPont”). Since 1993, DuPont has been investigating and cleaning up the Kinston site under the supervision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (“DENR”) pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Corrective Action program. The Corrective Action program requires DuPont to identify all potential areas of environmental concern (“AOCs”), assess the extent of containment at the identified AOCs and clean it up to comply with applicable regulatory standards. Effective March 20, 2008, the Company entered into a Lease Termination Agreement associated with conveyance of certain assets at Kinston to DuPont. This agreement terminated the Ground Lease and relieved the Company of any future responsibility for environmental remediation, other than participation with DuPont, if so called upon, with regard to the Company’s period of operation of the Kinston site. However, the Company continues to own a satellite service facility acquired in the INVISTA transaction that has contamination from DuPont’s operations and is monitored by DENR. This site has been remediated by DuPont and DuPont has received authority from DENR to discontinue remediation, other than natural attenuation. DuPont’s duty to monitor and report to DENR will be transferred to the Company in the future, at which time DuPont must pay the Company for seven years of monitoring and reporting costs and the Company will assume responsibility for any future remediation and monitoring of the site. At this time, the Company has no basis to determine if and when it will have any responsibility or obligation with respect to the AOCs or the extent of any potential liability for the same.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company is not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Securities and Exchange Commission has defined a company’s most critical accounting policies as those involving accounting estimates that require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time and where different reasonable estimates or changes in the accounting estimate from quarter to quarter could materially impact the presentation of the financial statements. The Company’s critical accounting policies are discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to these policies during the current period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no newly issued or newly applicable accounting pronouncements that have, or are expected to have, a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risks associated with changes in interest rates, fluctuation in currency exchange rates and raw material and commodity risks which may adversely affect its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes nor is it a party to any leveraged financial instruments.
Interest Rate Risk: The Company is exposed to interest rate risk through its borrowing activities. The Company has borrowings under its ABL Revolver, ABL Term Loan and, until its payoff subsequent to the current quarter, had borrowings under the Term B Loan, which all have variable rates of interest. The Company hedges a significant portion of its interest rate variability on its ABL Revolver and ABL Term Loan using interest rate swaps. As of December 23, 2012, $85,000 of the Company’s $106,682 of debt obligations are hedged through interest rate swaps and the $13,800 outstanding under the Term B Loan was subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.25%. After giving effect to these arrangements, the Company’s sensitivity analysis shows that a 50-basis point increase in the LIBOR rate as of December 23, 2012 would result in an increase of $33 in annual cash interest expense.
49
Currency Exchange Rate Risk: The Company conducts its business in various foreign countries and in various foreign currencies. Each of the Company’s operations may enter into transactions (sales, purchases, fixed purchase commitments, etc.) that are denominated in currencies other than the operation’s functional currency and subject the Company to foreign currency exchange risk. The Company may enter into forward currency contracts to hedge this exposure. For sales transactions, the Company typically hedges 50% to 75% of the sales value of these orders by using forward currency contracts. The maturity dates of the forward contracts are intended to match the anticipated collection dates of the receivables. As of December 23, 2012, the latest maturity date for outstanding forward currency contracts is during February 2013. The Company may also enter into forward currency contracts to hedge its exposure for certain equipment or inventory purchase commitments. As of December 23, 2012, the Company does not have a significant amount of exposure related to forward currency contracts.
As of December 23, 2012, the Company’s subsidiaries outside the U.S., whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, held approximately18.8% of consolidated total assets. The Company does not enter into foreign currency derivatives to hedge its net investment in its foreign operations.
As of December 23, 2012, $10,675 of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held outside the U.S., of which approximately $2,592 were held in U.S. dollar equivalents.
More information regarding the Company’s derivative financial instruments as of December 23, 2012 is provided in “Footnote 20. Derivative Financial Instruments” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Raw Material and Commodity Risks:A significant portion of the Company’s raw materials and energy costs are derived from petroleum-based chemicals. The prices for petroleum and petroleum-related products and energy costs are volatile and dependent on global supply and demand dynamics, including certain geo-political risks. The Company does not use financial instruments to hedge its exposure to changes in these costs. The costs of the primary raw materials that the Company uses throughout all of its operations are generally traded on U.S. dollar pricing and are purchased at market or at fixed prices that are established with individual vendors as part of the purchasing process for quantities expected to be consumed in the ordinary course of business.
Other Risks: The Company is also exposed to political risk, including changing laws and regulations governing international trade such as quotas, tariffs and tax laws. The degree of impact and the frequency of these events cannot be predicted.
Market Capitalization versus Book Value: As of the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company’s book value was $14.77 per share. During the December 2012 quarter, the Company’s shares of common stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange at a high of $14.13 and at a low of $11.90 per share. Due to the disparity between the share values, the Company periodically considers the recoverability of its assets and does not believe any of its assets to be impaired at this time.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of December 23, 2012, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the “Exchange Act”) was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

Effective July 26, 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to 3,333 shares of its common stock of which approximately 1,064 shares were subsequently repurchased. The repurchase program was suspended in November 2003 and, as described below, terminated and replaced on January 22, 2013. At the time of replacement, there was remaining authority for the Company to repurchase approximately 2,269 shares of its common stock under the repurchase plan. The repurchase plan had no stated expiration or termination date.
On January 22, 2013, the Company’s Board approved a new stock repurchase program to acquire up to $50,000 of the Company’s common stock. The new repurchase program replaced the prior stock repurchase program. Under the new repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares at prevailing market prices, through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions at such times, manner and prices as are determined by management, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, contractual obligations and other factors. Repurchases are expected to be financed through cash from operations and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, and are subject to applicable limitations and requirements set forth in the Company’s credit facility. The repurchase program has no stated expiration or termination date. The Company may discontinue repurchases at any time that management determines additional purchases are not warranted. Under the repurchase program, there is no time limit for repurchase, nor is there a minimum number of shares intended to be repurchased or specific time frame in which the Company intends to repurchase. The Company has not repurchased any shares under the new repurchase program.
