Euramax International, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Thousands of U.S. Dollars)

(Unaudited)

 

1.   Basis of Presentation:

 

For purposes of this report the “Company” refers to Euramax International, Inc. (“Euramax”) and Subsidiaries, collectively.

 

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  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 the management of the Company, these statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of all interim periods reported herein.  All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed.  Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair presentation of results of operations, financial position and cash flows.  These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the year-end Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2000.  Operating results for the period ended September 28, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of future results that may be expected for the year ending December 28, 2001.

 

Per share data has not been presented since such data provides no useful information, as the shares of the Company are closely held.

 

Certain 2000 amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

 

2.  Acquisitions:

 

On April 10, 2000 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Amerimax Home Products, Inc., acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Gutter World, Inc. and Global Expanded Metals, Inc., companies under common control, (“Gutter World” and “Global”, respectively) (the “Gutter World and Global Acquisition”).  The purchase price, including approximately $372.2 thousand in acquisition-related fees and expenses, was approximately $45.6 million in cash, plus the assumption of approximately $2.6 million of liabilities.  These companies manufacture raincarrying accessories, such as gutter guards, water diverters and downspout strainers, as well as door guards, sold primarily to home centers.  Additionally, the companies manufacture and sell expanded metal products to original equipment manufacturers.  The results of operations of Gutter World and Global are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings from the Acquisition Date.

 

The following unaudited pro forma data present the results of operations for the nine months ended September 29, 2000, as though the Gutter World and Global Acquisition had been completed January 1, 2000, and assume that there are no other changes in operations of the Company. Such pro forma information includes adjustments to interest expense; changes in amortization of goodwill relating to the allocation of the purchase price; elimination of the effect of transactions between Gutter World and a Euramax subsidiary and between Gutter World and Global; and the income tax effect related to these items.  The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the financial results that might have occurred had the Gutter World and Global Acquisition actually taken place on the first day of the fiscal year or of the future results of operations.  Certain Financial Statements and Exhibits for the Gutter World and Global Acquisition can be found in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed April 24, 2000.

3.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

 

For information regarding significant accounting policies, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the year ended December 29, 2000, set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  For information regarding the Company’s adoption of SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by SFAS 137 and SFAS 138, see Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the quarter ended March 30, 2001, set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, “Business Combinations” and No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  Under the new rules, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are no longer amortized, but are reviewed annually for impairment.  Separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.  The amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 apply immediately to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001.  With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, the Company will adopt the new accounting rules beginning January 1, 2002.  Management is currently assessing the financial impact SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility become due on June 30, 2002, at which date the facility expires.  Accordingly, amounts outstanding on the revolving credit facility are classified within current maturities of long-term debt as of September 28, 2001.  The Company intends to refinance borrowings under the revolving credit facility prior to its maturity.  The Company’s management believes that it will be able to effect this refinancing based upon current expectations for operating performance and future liquidity needs, although no assurance to that affect can be given.

 

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain specified financial ratios and meet certain financial tests, including a minimum EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) requirement, a minimum interest coverage and a maximum leverage ratio.  Effective March 19, 2001, the Company and the Lenders amended the Credit Agreement to, among other items, lower the minimum EBITDA requirement and the interest coverage ratio and raise the total leverage ratio.  The Company anticipates that these changes will provide flexibility sufficient to prevent an event of default during 2001 resulting from a breach of restrictive covenants, although no assurance to that effect can be given.

 

6. Financial Instruments and Risk Management

 

In connection with the Company’s risk-management strategy, the Company enters into currency agreements and interest rate agreements for other than trading purposes with major financial institutions to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations and/or interest rate fluctuations related to debt payments.  In July 2001, the Company terminated it’s interest rate swap and cap agreement.  This agreement capped the highest rate of interest to be paid on a portion of the Company’s U.S. Dollar variable rate indebtedness, in addition to providing for the Company to exchange floating U.S. Libor interest rates for a floating rate tied to a historically less volatile index.  The cost to the Company for terminating this agreement was $3.2 million.  The agreement was not designated as a hedge under SFAS 133.  The Company recognized a loss of $1.8 million on the agreement during the nine months ended September 28, 2001.  This loss was recorded as other expense.


 

7.  Commitments and Contingencies:

 

Litigation

 

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.  Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, it is the opinion of the Company’s management, based upon information available at this time, that the expected outcome of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

 

Environmental Matters

 

The Company’s operations are subject to federal, state, local and European environmental laws and regulations concerning the management of pollution and hazardous substances.

 

The Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits or as a potentially responsible party in state and Federal administrative and judicial proceedings seeking contribution for costs associated with the investigation, analysis, correction and remediation of environmental conditions at various hazardous waste disposal sites. The Company continues to monitor these actions and proceedings and to vigorously defend both its own interests as well as the interests of its affiliates. The Company's ultimate liability in connection with present and future environmental claims will depend on many factors, including its volumetric share of the waste at a given site, the remedial action required, the total cost of remediation, and the financial viability and participation of the other entities that also sent waste to the site. Once it becomes probable that the Company will incur costs in connection with remediation of a site and such costs can be reasonably estimated, the Company establishes or adjusts its reserve for its projected share of these costs. Based upon current law and information known to the Company concerning the size of the sites known to it, anticipated costs, their years of operations and the number of other potentially responsible parties, Management believes that the Company's potential share of the estimated aggregate liability for the costs of remedial actions and related costs and expenses are not material. In addition, the Company establishes reserves for remedial measures required from time to time at its own facilities. Management believes that the reasonably probable outcomes of these matters will not materially exceed established reserves and will not have a material impact on the future financial position, net earnings or cash flows of the Company. The Company's reserves, expenditures and expenses for all environmental exposures were not significant for any of the dates or periods presented.

 

In connection with the acquisition of the Company from Alumax Inc. (which has since been acquired by Aluminum Company of America in May 1998, and hereafter referred to as “Alumax”) on September 25, 1996, the Company was indemnified by Alumax for substantially all of its costs, if any, related to environmental matters for occurrences arising prior to the closing date of the acquisition during the period of time it was owned directly or indirectly by Alumax. Such indemnification includes costs that may ultimately be incurred to contribute to the remediation of certain specified existing National Priorities List (“NPL”) sites for which the Company had been named a potentially responsible party under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System (“CERCLA”) as of the closing date of the acquisition, as well as certain potential costs for sites listed on state hazardous cleanup lists. With respect to all other environmental matters, Alumax's obligations are limited to $125.0 million. However, notwithstanding the indemnity, the Company does not believe that it has any significant probable liability for environmental claims. Further, the Company believes it to be unlikely that the Company would be required to bear environmental costs in excess of its pro rata share of such costs as a potentially responsible party at any site.

11.   Supplemental Condensed Combined Financial Statements:

 

On September 25, 1996, the Company issued Senior Subordinated Notes due 2006 (the “Notes”). Euramax International Limited, Euramax European Holdings Limited and Euramax European Holdings B.V. are co-obligors under the Notes (the “Co-Obligors”).  Euramax International, Inc. has provided a full and unconditional guarantee of the Notes (“Parent Guarantor”).  In addition, Amerimax Holdings, Inc., Amerimax Fabricated Products, Inc., Euramax International Holdings Limited and Euramax Continental Limited, holding company subsidiaries of Euramax, have provided full and unconditional guarantees of the Notes (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”).  The following supplemental condensed combining financial statements as of September 28, 2001 and December 29, 2000, and for the quarters and nine months ended September 28, 2001 and September 29, 2000, reflect the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of each of the Parent Guarantor, the Co-Obligors, and such combined information of the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, principally the operating subsidiaries, (collectively, the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries").  The Co-Obligors and Guarantors are wholly–owned subsidiaries of Euramax and are each jointly, severally, fully, and unconditionally liable under the Notes. Separate complete financial statements of each Co–Obligor and Guarantor are not presented because management has determined that they are not material to investors.

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

 

Business Overview

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document, as well as the year-end Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2000.

 

The Company is an international producer of value-added aluminum, steel, vinyl and fiberglass fabricated products, with facilities strategically located in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), The Netherlands, France, and all major regions of the continental United States (“U.S.”). Euramax’s core products include specialty coated coils, aluminum recreational vehicle (“RV”) sidewalls, RV doors, farm and agricultural panels, roofing accessories, metal and vinyl raincarrying systems, soffit and fascia systems, and vinyl replacement windows.  The Company’s customers include original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) such as RV, commercial panel and transportation industry manufacturers; rural contractors; home centers; manufactured housing producers; distributors; industrial and architectural contractors; and home improvement contractors.

 

Financial results for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, compared to the same period of 2000, reflect strong demand in the U.S. for raincarrying systems and accessory products from the home center industry and for vinyl windows from home improvement contractors.  Results also reflect sales growth to the European transportation industry, as the Company broadens its product offerings to this industry.  Operational improvements at the Helena, Arkansas paintline and lower aluminum and steel costs have also improved operating results in the first nine months of 2001.  Continued soft demand in the U.S. RV and manufactured housing markets, in addition to lower demand for painted aluminum and steel coil from industrial consumers in Europe have partially offset these improvements.  These conditions contributed to increase operating earnings for the nine months ended September 29, 2001 to $29.9 million, from $29.2 million in the nine months ended September 28, 2000.  Weak European currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar reduced operating earnings by approximately $765.3 thousand for the nine months ended September 29, 2001, compared to the nine months ended September 28, 2000.

Net Sales.  Net sales decreased 0.1% to $159.3 million for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from $159.5 million for the quarter ended September 29, 2000.  The net sales increase in the U.S. was principally due to improved net sales of steel and aluminum roofing and siding to the rural contractor market, continued strong sales of vinyl windows to home improvement contractors and growth in sales of rain carrying products to distributors.  Partially offsetting these increases was continued weakness in sales to the recreational vehicle and manufactured housing markets.  The Company’s U.S. subsidiaries are included in the U.S. Fabrication Segment (see Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

Excluding a decline in reported net sales of approximately $556.1 thousand due to the weakening of foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar, third quarter net sales in Europe decreased by approximately 6.2% compared to the same period in 2000.  This decrease includes a decrease in net sales in the European Roll Coating segment of 11.9%, partially offset by an increase in net sales in the European Fabrication segment of 9.4% (see Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).  Sales in the European Roll Coating segment declined primarily from continued soft demand from industrial consumers for painted aluminum and steel sold from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.  Weak demand from the building and construction industry throughout Western Europe, most notably in Germany, was the primary factor in the decline in demand from industrial consumers.  Sales in the European Fabrication segment increased primarily from improved sales from France to the transportation industry in Western Europe, in addition to improved sales of patio, shower and residential doors and bath enclosures to home centers in the United Kingdom.


 

Cost of goods sold.  Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 79.0% for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from 83.3% for the quarter ended September 29, 2000.  This decrease is primarily attributable to lower aluminum and steel costs. The average primary aluminum price on the London Metal Exchange declined approximately 11.8% in the quarter ended September 28, 2001, compared to the quarter ended September 29, 2000.  Lower steel costs have resulted from softness in the steel market resulting from lower worldwide demand.  Further cost reductions have been achieved through an improvement in operations at the coil coating facility in Helena, Arkansas, together with an overall reduction in workforce.

 

Selling and general.  Selling and general expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 9.9% for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from 9.0% for the quarter ended September 29, 2000.  This increase is primarily attributable to increases in advertising, the provision for bad debts and employee benefit costs.

 

Depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales, was 2.7% for the quarters ended September 28, 2001 and September 29, 2000.

 

Earnings from operations.  As noted above, earnings from operations in the U.S. increased to $11.3 million for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from $4.9 million for the quarter ended September 29, 2000.  Earnings from operations in Europe decreased to $2.1 million for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from $3.0 million for the quarter ended September 29, 2000. The increase in earnings from operations in the U.S. is largely attributable to lower material costs, most notably the cost of aluminum, in addition to operational improvement at the Helena, Arkansas paintline.  Additionally, benefits from cost reduction activities begun at the end of 2000 were more pronounced on increasing U.S. sales volume.  The decrease in earnings from operations in Europe is largely attributable to a decline in sales volume from industrial consumers of painted aluminum and steel sold from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Lower European earnings were also due to competitive pricing pressure in the United Kingdom where the strength of the British pound has limited export opportunities to continental Europe and increased selling and general expenses.

 

Interest expense, net.  Net interest expense decreased to $5.9 million for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from $6.7 million for the quarter ended September 29, 2000. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to a reduction in the amount of outstanding long-term debt.

 

Other expenses, net.  Other expenses decreased to $93.6 thousand for the quarter ended September 28, 2001, from $219.7 thousand for the quarter ended September 29, 2000.  The decrease in other expenses is primarily the result of a decrease in the foreign exchange loss recognized on foreign denominated long-term debt that is not hedged.

 

Provision for income taxes.  The income tax provision for the period is based on the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year.  The effective rate for the provision for income taxes decreased to 53.2% from 157.0% for the quarters ended September 28, 2001 and September 29, 2000, respectively.  The decrease in the effective rate is primarily due to an adjustment made during the third quarter of 2000 to adjust the year-to-date provision to approximate the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year.

Net Sales.  Net sales decreased 3.7% to $448.2 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $465.5 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  Sales in the U.S. declined principally due to lower net sales of aluminum and laminated fiberglass wall products to the U.S. RV market, in addition to lower net sales of steel and aluminum roofing and siding to the manufactured housing market.  These decreases were partially offset by an increase in sales of rain carrying products to home centers, an increase in vinyl window sales to home improvement contractors and as a result of the Gutter World, Inc. and Global Expanded Metals, Inc. acquisitions in the second quarter of 2000 (see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).  The Company’s U.S. subsidiaries are included in the U.S. Fabrication Segment (see Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).


 

Excluding a decline in reported net sales of approximately $8.4 million due to the weakening of foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar, net sales in Europe decreased by approximately 2.3% for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, compared to the same period in 2000.  This decrease included a decrease in net sales in the European Roll Coating segment of 4.4% and an increase in net sales in the European Fabrication segment of 2.7% (see Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).  Sales in the European Roll Coating segment declined primarily from softening demand from industrial consumers for painted aluminum and steel from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.  Sales in the European Fabrication segment increased primarily from improved sales from France to the transportation industry in Western Europe.

 

Cost of goods sold.  Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 80.3% for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from 82.0% for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  This decrease is primarily attributable to lower raw material and labor costs.

 

Selling and general.  Selling and general expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 10.0% for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from 9.3% for the nine months ended September 29, 2000. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in advertising, product warranty, the provision for bad debts and employee benefit costs, together with lower net sales.

 

Depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales, was 3.0% for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, compared to 2.4% for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  This increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily the result of business acquisitions and the reduction in net sales.

 

Earnings from operations.  As noted above, earnings from operations in the U.S. increased to $17.8 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $14.4 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000, and earnings from operations in Europe decreased to $12.1 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $14.8 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  The increase in earnings from operations in the U.S. is largely attributable to lower raw material costs, most notably for aluminum, in addition to operational improvement at the Helena, Arkansas paintline and lower selling and general expenses.   The decrease in earnings from operations in Europe is partially attributable to the weakening of European currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar, which reduced reported operating earnings by $765.3 thousand compared to same period in 2000.  Additionally, lower European earnings resulted from competitive pricing pressure in the United Kingdom, less sales volume and an increase in selling and general expenses.

 

Interest expense, net.  Net interest expense increased to $19.0 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $18.9 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  The increase in interest expense is primarily due to additional borrowings in April 2000 relating to the Gutter World and Global Acquisition.

 

Other expenses, net.  Other expenses increased to $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $871.2 thousand for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  The increase in other expenses is primarily the result of the change in fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges under SFAS 133 (see Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).  SFAS 133 was adopted by the Company effective December 30, 2000.


 

Provision for income taxes.  The income tax provision for the period is based on the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year.  The effective rate for the provision for income taxes decreased to 52.6% from 55.0% for the nine months ended September 28, 2001 and September 29, 2000, respectively.  The decrease in the effective rate is primarily due to higher earnings in 2001, mitigating the effect of permanent differences for non-deductible items on the effective tax rate.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity.  The Company’s primary liquidity needs arise from debt service incurred in connection with acquisitions and the funding of capital expenditures.  The Company’s liquidity sources at September 28, 2001, included $57.5 million fully available under its revolving credit facility and $7.0 million in cash.  Effective March 19, 2001, the Company amended its Credit Agreement to, among other items, lower the minimum EBITDA requirement and the interest coverage ratio and raise the total leverage ratio.  The Company anticipates that these changes will provide flexibility sufficient to prevent an event of default during 2001 resulting from a breach of restrictive covenants, although no assurance to that effect can be given.

 

Borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility become due on June 30, 2002, at which date the facility expires.  Accordingly, amounts outstanding on the revolving credit facility are classified within current maturities of long-term debt as of September 28, 2001.  The Company intends to refinance borrowings under the revolving credit facility prior to its maturity.  The Company’s management believes that it will be able to effect this refinancing based upon current expectations for operating performance and future liquidity needs, although no assurance to that affect can be given.

 

The Company’s leveraged financial position requires that a substantial portion of the Company’s cash flow from operations be used to pay interest on the Notes, principal and interest under the Company’s Credit Agreement and other indebtedness.  Significant increases in the floating interest rates on the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility would result in increased debt service requirements, which may reduce the funds available for capital expenditures and other operational needs.  In addition, the Company’s leveraged position may impede its ability to obtain financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.  Further, the Company’s leveraged position may make it more vulnerable to economic downturns, may limit its ability to withstand competitive pressures, and may limit its ability to comply with restrictive financial covenants required under its Credit Agreement.

 

The Company’s primary source of liquidity is funds generated from operations, which are supplemented by borrowings under the Credit Agreement.  Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities for the nine months ended September 28, 2001 and September 29, 2000, were $14.0 million and $(1.6) million, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, compared to the nine months ended September 29, 2000, is primarily related to a reduction in inventory levels resulting from a focused effort to reduce working capital levels.

 


 

Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $52.4 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000.  This decrease is primarily a result of the Gutter World and Global Acquisition which occurred in April 2000.

 

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities decreased to $(9.1) million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001, from $57.8 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2000, primarily due to borrowings under the Credit Agreement which occurred in April 2000 related to the Gutter World and Global Acquisition.  Additionally, the decrease in net cash (used in) provided by financing activities resulted from reduced borrowings under the Credit Agreement as a result of lower working capital needs in the nine months ended September 28, 2001, compared to the nine months ended September 29, 2000.

 

The above-noted sources are expected to provide the liquidity required, if necessary, to supplement cash from operations, although no assurance to that effect can be given.

 

Capital Expenditures.  The Company’s capital expenditures were $6.5 million and $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2001 and September 29, 2000, respectively. Capital expenditures in 2001 include approximately $1.2 million for improvements to the paintlines in Helena, Arkansas; Corby, England; and Roermond, The Netherlands; and approximately $2.8 million for several projects related to business expansion.  Capital expenditures in 2000 included approximately $2.6 million for several projects related to business expansion and cost reduction activities, and approximately $1.0 million for improvements to the paintlines in Helena, Arkansas; Roermond, the Netherlands; and Corby, England.  The balance of capital expenditures in both periods related to purchases and upgrades of fabricating equipment, transportation and material moving equipment, and information systems.

 

The Company has made and will continue to make capital expenditures to comply with Environmental Laws.  The Company estimates that its environmental capital expenditures for 2001 will approximate $150.0 thousand.

 

Working Capital Management.  Working capital was $40.9 million as of September 28, 2001, compared to $79.3 million as of December 29, 2000. The decrease in working capital is largely attributable to the classification of the Company’s revolving credit facility within current maturities of long-term debt as of September 28, 2001. The revolving credit facility was classified as long-term debt as of December 29, 2000.  Additionally, inventories have declined $10.1 million from December 29, 2000 to September 28, 2001, resulting from a focused effort to reduce working capital levels and lower aluminum and steel costs.  Partially offsetting these reductions in working capital was a seasonal increase in trade accounts receivable.

 

Environmental Matters

 

The Company’s exposure to environmental matters has not changed significantly from the year ended December 29, 2000.  For detailed information regarding environmental matters, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Risk Management” set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2000.


 

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:  The Management’s Discussion and Analysis and other sections of this Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the industries in which the Company operates, and management’s beliefs and assumptions.  Such forward-looking statements include terminology such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” or variations of such words and similar expressions regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future.  Forward-looking statements in this report include, but are not limited to: (1) statements regarding the Company’s belief that borrowings under the revolving credit facility will be refinanced prior to its maturity; (2) statements regarding the Company anticipating the amendment to the Credit Agreement dated March 19, 2001, provides flexibility sufficient to prevent an event of default during 2001 resulting from a breach of restrictive covenants; and (3) statements regarding the Company’s expectation that its sources of liquidity will provide the liquidity required, if necessary, to supplement lower cash flow from operations.  These forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions that could ultimately prove inaccurate, and, therefore, there can be no assurance that they will prove to be accurate.  All such forward-looking statements are subject to the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Important factors that could cause future financial performance to differ materially and significantly from past results and from those expressed or implied in this document include, without limitation, the risks of acquisition of businesses (including limited knowledge of the businesses acquired and misrepresentations by sellers), changes in business strategy or development plans, the cyclical demand for the Company’s products, the supply and/or price of aluminum and other raw materials, currency exchange rate fluctuations, environmental regulations, availability of financing, competition, reliance on key management personnel, ability to manage growth, loss of customers, and a variety of other factors.  For further information on these and other risks, see the “Risk Factors” section of Item 1 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2000, as well as the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

The following discussion about the Company’s risk-management activities includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statement.  See “Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” for additional information regarding the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.  The Company’s management of market risk from changes in interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices has not changed from the year ended December 29, 2000, with the exception of the termination of the interest rate swap and cap agreement (see Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).  For detailed information regarding the Company’s risk management, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Risk Management” and "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2000.


 

Interest Rate Risk

 

This analysis presents the hypothetical loss in fair value and increase in interest expense of those financial instruments and derivative instruments held by the Company at September 28, 2001, which are sensitive to changes in interest rates.  All other factors remaining unchanged, a hypothetical 10 percent increase in interest rates would decrease the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate, long-term debt outstanding at September 28, 2001, by approximately $6.0 million, based upon the use of a discounted cash flow model, as compared to a hypothetical decrease in fair value of approximately $6.7 million at December 29, 2000.

 

A hypothetical 10 percent increase in interest rates for one year on the Company’s variable rate financial instruments and derivative instruments would increase interest expense by approximately $519.0 thousand as calculated at September 28, 2001, compared to a hypothetical increase in interest expense of approximately $919.0 thousand as calculated at December 29, 2000.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

 

This analysis presents the hypothetical increase in foreign exchange loss and increase in interest expense related to those financial instruments and derivative instruments held by the Company at September 28, 2001, which are sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange risks.  A hypothetical 10 percent decrease in foreign currency exchange rates would increase the Company’s foreign exchange loss by approximately $860.0 thousand for those financial instruments and derivative instruments affected by foreign currency exchange fluctuations, as compared to a hypothetical increase in foreign exchange loss of approximately $844.2 thousand for the year ended December 29, 2000.

 

All other factors remaining unchanged, a hypothetical 10 percent increase in foreign currency exchange rates for one year would increase interest expense by approximately $421.0 thousand as calculated at September 28, 2001, for those financial instruments and derivative instruments affected by foreign currency exchange fluctuations, as compared to a hypothetical increase in interest expense of approximately $497.3 thousand as calculated at December 29, 2000.
