FINISHMASTER, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION Basis of Presentation: The interim financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These adjustments consist of normal recurring items. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by the requirements for Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and notes. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes included in its 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Nature of Business: FinishMaster, Inc. ("the Company" or "FinishMaster") is the leading national distributor of automotive paints, coatings, and paint-related accessories to the automotive collision repair industry. As of March 31, 2001, the Company operated 156 sales outlets and three major distribution centers in 22 states and is organized into two major geographical divisions - East and West. The Company aggregates its two geographic divisions into a single reportable segment. The Company has over 35,000 customers to which it provides a comprehensive selection of brand name products supplied by BASF, DuPont, 3M and PPG, in addition to its own FinishMaster Private Brand refinishing accessory products. The Company is highly dependent on the key suppliers outlined above, which account for approximately 85% of the Company's purchases. Principles of Consolidation: The Company's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FinishMaster and its wholly owned subsidiaries from the dates of their respective acquisition. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. References to the Company or FinishMaster throughout this report relate to the consolidated entity. Majority Shareholder: Lacy Distribution, Inc. ("Distribution"), an Indiana corporation, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of LDI, Ltd. ("LDI"), an Indiana limited partnership, and is the majority shareholder of the Company with 5,587,516 shares of common stock, representing 74.1% of the outstanding shares at March 31, 2001. LDI and Distribution are collectively referred to herein as "LDI." Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities: The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value are recorded each period in the other comprehensive income (loss) section of shareholders' equity. Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs: The Company includes the cost of delivering the product to the customer in the operating expense section of the consolidated statements of operations. Total delivery costs primarily include wages, benefits, vehicle costs, and freight. The total delivery costs incurred for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, are estimated at $4,325,000, and $4,405,000, respectively. Reclassification: Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 2. ACQUISITIONS No acquisitions were completed during the three months ended March 31, 2001. 3. NET INCOME PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share: (in thousands, except per share data) Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------- 2001 2000 ----------------- ------------------ Numerator: Net Income $ 839 $ 904 ============ =========== Denominator: Basic-weighted average shares 7,541 7,538 Effect of dilutive stock options 15 34 ------------ ----------- Diluted-weighted average shares 7,556 7,572 ============ =========== Basic net income per share $ 0.11 $ 0.12 ============ =========== Diluted net income per share $ 0.11 $ 0.12 ============ =========== 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is dependent on four main suppliers for the purchases of the paint and related supplies that it distributes. A loss of one of the suppliers or a disruption in the supply of the products provided could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results. The suppliers also provide purchase discounts, prompt payment discounts, extended terms, and other incentive programs to the Company. To the extent these programs are changed or terminated, there could be a material adverse impact to the Company. The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies arising out of the normal course of business, including those relating to commercial transactions, environmental, product liability, automobile, taxes, discrimination, employment and other matters. Management believes that the ultimate liability, if any, in excess of amounts already provided or covered by insurance, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 5. EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT On March 29, 2001, the Company entered into a new senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of banks and a new senior subordinated term credit facility with LDI. The use of the proceeds from these facilities was used to repay the Company's existing senior secured and senior subordinated credit facilities prior to their original expiration dates. An extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $0.5 million, net of $0.3 million in income tax benefit, results from the write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs related to these expired facilities. 6. LONG-TERM DEBT On March 29, 2001, the Company entered into a new $100.0 million senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of banks and a new $20.0 million senior subordinated term credit facility with LDI. The new senior secured credit facility consists of a $40.0 million term credit facility and a $60.0 million revolving credit facility. The term credit facility, which expires on June 30, 2006, requires quarterly principal payments that increase in amount over the term of the loan. Quarterly principal payments begin on June 30, 2001, and are $1.0 million per quarter in 2001. The revolving credit facility is limited to the lesser of (1) $60.0 million less letter of credit obligations, or (2) 80 percent of eligible accounts receivable plus 65 percent of eligible inventory less letter of credit obligations and a reserve for three months facility rent. Principal is due on June 30, 2006. Both the revolving credit and term facilities are subject to interest rates, which fluctuate based on the Company's Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Facility, which range from 1.75% to 2.75% over LIBOR or 0.00% to 0.75% over prime. For a period of six months after the close of the transaction, the interest rate is fixed at LIBOR plus 3.00%. To convert the Company's new senior term credit facility from a floating to a fixed interest rate obligation, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $40.0 million. The weighted average fixed interest rate under these agreements is 5.43%. The current period change in the fair value of the interest rate swap was ($0.4) million, which was recorded in the other comprehensive income (loss) section of shareholders' equity. Concurrent with funding the senior secured credit facility, the Company repaid its $30.0 million senior subordinated term credit facility and entered into a new $20.0 million senior subordinated term credit facility with LDI. All outstanding principal is due on March 29, 2007, and interest is payable quarterly at a rate of 12.0% per annum. ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales $ 83,235 (1.7%) $ 84,670 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales for the first quarter decreased $1.4 million, or 1.7%, due to a "same store sales" decline of approximately $1.8 million, or 2.2%, partially offset by the full quarter sales effect of prior year acquisitions. The Company experienced soft market conditions throughout most of its distribution network. Factors leading to the softening in demand include slower overall economic conditions; inclement weather conditions in the Northeastern United States; ongoing drought conditions in Florida; and continued productivity improvements in the use of automotive paint by our customers. A reduction in vendor supported marketing programs used to attract and retain customers' also impacted sales. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross margin $ 30,353 1.4% $ 29,933 Percentage of net sales 36.5% 35.4% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gross margin increased $0.4 million, or 1.4%. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales increased from 35.4% to 36.5%, positively impacting margin by $0.9 million. Lower net sales volume negatively impacted margin by approximately $0.5 million. The improvement in margin as a percentage of net sales is primarily the result of large inventory purchases made prior to manufacturers' price increases. Margin can be affected by purchasing opportunities presented to the Company by its vendors. The Company's ability to maintain the strong margin realized in the first quarter is dependent upon the availability of favorable purchasing programs from its vendors and its ability to recover future vendor price increases from its customers. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating expenses $ 13,339 (0.8%) $ 13,447 Percentage of net sales 16.0% 15.9% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating expenses consist of wages, facility, vehicle and related costs for the Company's branch and distribution locations. Operating expenses decreased $0.1 million, or 0.8%, as a result of lower labor and supplies costs. Partially offsetting these items were higher utility, freight, and vehicle expenses due to increased energy costs for gasoline, natural gas and electricity. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Selling, general and administrative expenses $ 10,871 5.3% $ 10,326 Percentage of net sales 13.1% 12.2% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") consist of costs associated with the Company's corporate support staff, and expenses for commissions, wages, and customer sales support activities. SG&A expenses increased $0.5 million, or 5.3%, primarily due to higher labor and employee benefit costs, higher bank charges, and increased costs associated with attracting and retaining customers. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amortization of intangible assets $ 1,348 (11.1%) $ 1,517 Percentage of net sales 1.6% 1.8% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Amortization expense decreased $0.2 million, or 11.1%, as a result of certain intangible assets, principally non-compete agreements, becoming fully amortized. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest expense, net $ 2,308 (20.1%) $ 2,888 Percentage of net sales 2.8% 3.4% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest expense decreased $0.6 million, or 20.1%, due primarily to the lower average outstanding borrowings. Average outstanding borrowings were approximately $25.7 million lower in the first quarter of 2001 compared to the prior year period. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income tax expense $ 1,153 35.5% $ 851 Percentage of net sales 1.4% 1.0% Effective tax rate 46.4% 48.5% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income tax expense increased $0.3 million, or 35.5% due primarily to higher income before income taxes and extraordinary loss. The effective tax rate varied from the federal statutory rate as a result of certain expenses, principally nondeductible intangible amortization. In 2000, the Company's effective tax rate for the year was 53.2%. The lower projected rate for 2001 is reflective of higher anticipated full year income before income taxes and consistent levels of nondeductible items. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extraordinary loss, net $ 495 N/A $ - Percentage of net sales 0.6% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment of debt of $0.5 million, net of $0.3 million in income tax benefit, resulted from the write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs related to the early extinguishment of the Company's senior secured and senior subordinated credit facilities. See Note 5. Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands, except per share data) 2001 Change 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income $ 839 (7.2%) $ 904 Percentage of net sales 1.0% 1.1% Net income per share - Diluted $ 0.11 $ 0.12 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Factors contributing to the changes in net income and the related per share amounts are discussed in the detail above. Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations The Company's sales and operating results have varied from quarter to quarter due to various factors and the Company expects these fluctuations to continue. Among these factors are seasonal buying patterns of the Company's customers and the timing of acquisitions. Historically, sales have slowed in the late fall and winter of each year largely due to inclement weather and the reduced number of business days during the holiday season. In addition, the timing of acquisitions may cause substantial fluctuations of operating results from quarter to quarter. The Company takes advantage of periodic special incentive programs available from its suppliers that extend the due date of inventory purchases beyond terms normally available with large volume purchases. The timing of these programs can contribute to fluctuations in the Company's quarterly cash flows. Although the Company continues to investigate strategies to smooth the seasonal pattern of its quarterly results of operations, there can be no assurance that the Company's net sales, results of operations and cash flows will not continue to display seasonal patterns. Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources (In thousands) March 31, December 31, 2001 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Working capital $ 36,781 $ 35,209 Long-term debt $ 89,458 $ 90,652 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three Months Ended March 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands) 2001 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cash provided by operating activities $ 15,017 $ 225 Cash used in investing activities $ (245) $ (1,905) Cash provided by (used in) financing activities $ (7,327) $ 2,085 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's primary sources of funds are from operations and borrowings under its credit facilities. The Company's principal uses of cash are to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and the repayment of outstanding borrowings. Net cash generated from operating activities was $15.0 million in the first quarter of 2001 compared with $0.2 million in 2000. This increase was the result of a positive change in operating assets and liabilities, primarily accounts payable and other liabilities. The increase in cash flows from accounts payable and other liabilities resulted from differences in payment terms between years on large end of year inventory purchases. Net cash used in investing activities, primarily for acquisitions, was $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2001, down from $1.9 million in 2000. No acquisitions were completed in the current year period while three were completed in the prior year period. Net cash used by financing activities, primarily the repayment of borrowings, was $7.3 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to net cash provided of $2.1 million in the prior year period. The increase in net debt repayments was a result of improved working capital management and favorable payment terms provided by our vendors on end of year inventory purchases. Use of cash for debt issuance costs related to the new credit facilities was $1.1 million. Total capitalization at March 31, 2001, was $152.8 million, comprised of $95.5 million of debt and $57.3 million of equity. Debt as a percentage of total capitalization was 62.5% at March 31, 2001 compared to 64.1% at December 31, 2000. On March 29, 2001, the Company entered into a new $100.0 million senior secured credit facility with a syndication of banks and a new $20.0 million senior subordinated term credit facility with LDI. The new senior secured credit facility consists of a $40.0 million term credit facility and a $60.0 million revolving credit facility. The term credit facility, which expires on June 30, 2006, requires quarterly principal payments that increase in amount over the term of the loan. Quarterly principal payments begin on June 30, 2001, and are $1.0 million per quarter in 2001. The revolving credit facility is limited to the lesser of (1) $60.0 million less letter of credit obligations, or (2) 80 percent of eligible accounts receivable plus 65 percent of eligible inventory less letter of credit obligations and a reserve for three months facility rent. Principal is due on June 30, 2006. Both the revolving credit and term facilities are subject to interest rates, which fluctuate based on the Company's Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Facility, which range from 1.75% to 2.75% over LIBOR or 0.00% to 0.75% over prime. For a period of six months after the close of the transaction, the interest rate is fixed at LIBOR plus 3.00%. To convert the Company's new senior term credit facility from a floating to a fixed interest rate obligation, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $40.0 million. The weighted average fixed interest rate under these agreements is 5.43%. The current period change in the fair value of the interest rate swap was ($0.4) million, which was recorded in the Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) section of Shareholders' Equity. Concurrent with funding the senior secured credit facility, the Company repaid its $30.0 million senior subordinated term credit facility and entered into a new $20.0 million senior subordinated term credit facility with LDI. All outstanding principal is due on March 29, 2007, and interest is payable quarterly at a rate of 12.0% per annum. The Company was in compliance with the covenants underlying its credit facilities, and had estimated availability under its revolving credit facilities of $38.5 million as of May 1, 2001, based upon the March 31, 2001 borrowing base calculation. Based on current and projected operating results and giving effect to total indebtedness, the Company believes that cash flow from operations and funds available from lenders and other creditors will provide adequate funds for ongoing operations, debt service and planned capital expenditures. Forward-Looking Statements This Report contains certain forward-looking statements pertaining to, among other things, the Company's future results of operations, cash flow needs and liquidity, acquisitions, and other aspects of its business. The Company may make similar forward-looking statements from time to time. These statements are based largely on the Company's current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties.
