NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
July 31, 2004
| Note 1. | The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January 31, 2005. The balance sheet at January 31, 2004, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2004. | |||
| Note 2. | Inventories | |||
| Year end financial statements at January 31, 2004 reflect inventories verified by physical counts with the material content valued by the LIFO method. At July 31, 2004 and 2003, there has been no physical verification of inventory quantities. Cost of sales is recorded at current cost. The effect of penetrating LIFO layers is not recorded at interim dates unless the reduction in inventory is expected to be permanent. No such adjustments have been made for the periods ended July 31, 2004 and 2003. LIFO reserves at July 31, 2004 and January 31, 2004 were $4,042,000. LIFO reserves at July 31, 2003 were $3,527,000. Management continually monitors production costs, material costs and inventory levels to determine that interim inventories are fairly stated. | ||||
| Note 3. | Debt | |||
| The Company has entered into a revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, amended and restated January 27, 2004, which provides a term loan of $12,500,000 and a secured revolving line of credit that varies with levels of inventory and receivables, up to a maximum of $45,000,000. The term loan is a three-year amortizing line with interest payable monthly at a fluctuating rate equal to the Bank’s prime rate plus a fluctuating margin of 0.75%, or at LIBOR plus 3.25%. Under the term loan, the Bank is entitled to require the Company to fix the interest rate on up to $6 million of debt. Effective February 1, 2004, Virco purchased an interest rate swap from Wells Fargo Bank, that effectively fixed the rate of interest on $6 million for a period of three years at a rate of 6.32%. The revolving line has an 18-month maturity with interest payable monthly at a fluctuating rate equal to the Bank’s prime rate (4.25% at July 31, 2004) plus a margin of 0.50%, or at LIBOR plus 2.75%. The revolving line also allows the Company the option to borrow under 30- 60- and 90-day fixed term rates at LIBOR plus 2.75%. As of July 31, 2003, the Company violated one of the covenants under the line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank. Wells Fargo provided a waiver of the covenant, but | ||||

| required the Company to limit stock buyback activity to $250,000 for the period between June 4, 2003 and December 1, 2003. | ||||
| Note 4. | Income Taxes | |||
| We recognize deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income or reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. We consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on this consideration, we believe it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized, and a valuation allowance has been recorded against the net deferred tax assets at July 31, 2004 and January 31, 2004; a partial valuation allowance has been recorded at July 31, 2003. At July 31, 2004, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for federal and state income tax purposes, expiring at various dates through 2024, if not utilized. Federal net operating losses that can potentially be carried forward total approximately $13.8 million at July 31, 2004. | ||||
| Note 5. | Net Income/(Loss) Per Share | |||
| For the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2004, net income/(loss) per share was calculated based on diluted shares outstanding at July 31, 2004. For the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2003, net loss per share was calculated based on basic shares outstanding at July 31, 2003 due to the anti-dilutive effect of the inclusion of common stock equivalent shares. The following table sets forth the computation of income/(loss) per share (in thousands, except per share data): | ||||

SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, requires pro forma information regarding net income and net income per share to be disclosed for new options granted after fiscal year 1996. The fair value of these options was determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period for pro forma disclosures. The per share “pro forma” for the effects of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS 148, is not indicative of the effects on reported net income/loss for future years.

| Note 7. | Retirement Plans | |||
| The Company and its subsidiaries cover all employees under a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan, the Virco Employees’ Retirement Plan (the Plan). Benefits under the Plan are based on years of service and career average earnings. As more fully described in the Form 10K dated January 31, 2004, benefit accruals under this plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003. | ||||

Table of Contents
The Company also provides a supplementary retirement plan for certain key employees, the VIP Retirement Plan (VIP Plan). The VIP Plan provides a benefit of up to 50% of average compensation for the last five years in the VIP Plan, offset by benefits earned under the Virco Employees’ Retirement Plan. As more fully described in the Form 10K dated January 31, 2004, benefit accruals under this plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003.
The Company also provides a non-qualified plan for non-employee directors of the Company. The Plan provides a lifetime annual retirement benefit equal to the director’s annual retainer fee for the fiscal year in which the director terminates his or her position with the Board, subject to the director providing 10 years of service to the Company. As more fully described in the Form 10K dated January 31, 2004, benefit accruals under this plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003.

| Note 8. | Warranty | |||
| The Company provides a product warranty on most products. It generally warrants that customers can return a defective product during the specified warranty period following purchase in exchange for a replacement product or that the Company can repair the product at no charge to the customer. The Company determines whether replacement or repair is appropriate in each circumstance. The Company uses historic data to estimate appropriate levels of warranty reserves. Because product mix, production methods, and raw material sources change over time, historic data may not always provide precise estimates for future warranty expense. The following is a summary of the Company’s warranty-claim activity for the six months ended July 31, 2004 and 2003. | ||||

VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations:
For the second quarter of 2004, the Company earned net income of $2,031,000 on sales of $68,813,000 compared to a net loss of $8,286,000 on sales of $65,861,000 in the same period last year. Sales for the second quarter ended July 31, 2004 increased by $2,952,000, a 4% increase, compared to the same period last year. Incoming orders for the same period increased by approximately 3%. For the six month period ending July 31, 2004, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,570,000 on sales of $99,134,000, compared to a net loss of $12,299,000 on sales of $97,041,000 in the same period last year. Incoming orders for same period increased by approximately 3%. Backlog at July 31, 2004 was slightly higher compared to the prior year.
As more fully disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2004, in the prior year the Company incurred a severe decline in sales volume, primarily due to decreased funding levels at state and local governments. In the prior year, Virco offered employees a voluntary severance package, resulting in a $7.8 million separation charge in the second quarter last year. This voluntary program was followed by a mandatory reduction in force in the third quarter. These programs were intended to reduce the cost structure of the Company so that Virco could operate profitably at an annual sales volume of approximately $200 million. For the first six months of the current year, the rate of orders from publicly funded entities has stabilized. The efforts to reduce the cost structure of the Company have been effective, with the Company shipping increased sales during the first six months while reducing selling and general and administrative spending by more than $4 million. The Company has made similar reductions in manufacturing overhead spending, but these savings have been offset by increased material costs.
Gross profit for the second quarter and first six months, as a percentage of sales, remained consistent compared to the same periods last year. For the quarter ended July 31, 2004 as well as the first six months, the Company has incurred significantly higher steel prices. In addition to higher prices, the Company has not always been able to purchase the precise steel desired, resulting in yield variances. Since the Company sells to schools under annual contracts, and because of the current economic climate, the Company has been unable to pass the impact of these increased material costs to its customers. As steel prices and availability over the next six months is still quite uncertain, it is not possible to accurately quantify the impact on the Company for the year, but the cost could be in the range of seven to ten million dollars. For the first six months, a combination of selective price increases and decreased overhead spending substantially offset the increased material cost, resulting in flat gross margin percentages.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the quarter ended July 31, 2004 declined by approximately $2 million compared to the same period last year, and included a $450,000 recovery of a legal claim. SG&A decreased as a percentage of sales nearly 5%. Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended July 31, 2004 declined by more than $4 million compared to the same period last year, and decreased as a percentage of sales approximately 5%. The decreased expense is due to improved warehousing and freight efficiencies, reductions in staffing, and freezing of the defined benefit plans.
Interest expense for the first six months increased by approximately $127,000 compared to the same period last year. The increase is attributable to increased rates offset by reduced borrowings.

At July 31, 2004, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for federal and state income tax purposes, expiring at various dates through 2024, if not utilized. Federal net operating losses that can potentially be carried forward total approximately $13.8 million at July 31, 2004. In the prior year, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $2.9 million, primarily attributable to net operating loss carry backs available. For the current year, the Company did not accrue an income tax benefit.
Financial Condition:
As a result of seasonally higher shipments during the summer, accounts receivable were $21.4 million greater than January 31, 2004. Accounts receivable were approximately $3.4 million higher than July 31, 2003 due to increased July shipping activity. The Company traditionally builds large quantities of inventory during the first and second quarters in anticipation of seasonally high summer shipments. For the current year, the Company increased inventory by nearly $14.4 million compared to January 31, 2004. Inventories were approximately $8.5 million less than July 31, 2003 due to improved inventory management. The increase in receivables and inventory were financed through the credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank.
The Company significantly reduced inventories at the end of fiscal year ended January 31, 2004 in response to reduced sales volume. The Company maintained the year over year reduction in inventory through the first quarter. Inventories and production levels were increased during the second quarter as the Company received orders for summer deliveries.
The Company has established a goal of limiting capital spending to approximately $5,000,000 for 2004, which is approximately one-half of anticipated depreciation expense. Capital spending for the six months ended July 31, 2004, was $1,718,000 compared to $777,000 for the same period last year. Capital expenditures are being financed through the Company’s credit facility established with Wells Fargo Bank.
Net cash used in operating activities for the first six months ended July 31, 2004 was $20.8 million compared to $27.8 million for the same period last year. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was due to reduction in operating loss for the first six months, offset by increased working capital needs.
In April 1998, the Board of Directors approved a stock buyback program. As of July 31, 2004, the Company has repurchased approximately 1,454,000 shares at a cost of approximately $18,788,000 since the inception of this program. Under the current Wells Fargo Bank credit facility, the Company is restricted from buying back additional shares or paying cash dividends.
The Company believes that cash flows from operations, together with the Company’s unused borrowing capacity with Wells Fargo Bank will be sufficient to fund the Company’s debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs. Approximately $10,000,000 was available for borrowing as of July 31, 2004.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:
The Company’s critical accounting policies are outlined in its Form 10-K for fiscal year ended January 31, 2004.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
For fiscal 2004, the Company has entered into a revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, as amended and restated January 27, 2004, which provides a term loan of $12,500,000 and a secured revolving line of credit that varies with levels of inventory and receivables, up to a maximum of $45,000,000. The term loan is a three-year amortizing line with interest payable monthly at a fluctuating rate equal to the Bank’s prime rate (4.25% at July 31, 2004) plus a fluctuating margin of 0.75%, or at LIBOR plus 3.25%. Under the term loan, the Bank is entitled to require the Company to fix the interest rate on up to $6 million of debt. Effective February 1, 2004, the Company purchased an interest rate swap from Wells Fargo Bank that effectively fixed the rate of interest on $6 million for a period of three years at a rate of 6.32%. The revolving line has an 18-month maturity with interest payable monthly at a fluctuating rate equal to the Bank’s prime rate plus a margin of 0.50%, or at LIBOR plus 2.75%. The revolving line also allows the Company the option to borrow under 30- 60- and 90-day fixed term rates at LIBOR plus 2.75%. Accordingly, a 100 basis point upward fluctuation in the lender’s base rate would cause the Company to incur additional interest charges of approximately $104,000 for the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2004. The Company would benefit from a similar interest savings if the base rate were to fluctuate downward by a like amount. As of July 31, 2004, the Company has borrowed $46,821,000 under its Wells Fargo term loan and asset-based credit facility.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures necessarily involves the exercise of judgment by management, and such controls and procedures, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance that management’s objectives in establishing them will be achieved.

Based upon the foregoing, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, along with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and other members of management, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them in a timely fashion to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities Exchange Commission.
(b) Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
