Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2004

(In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)

 

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Operations

 

DashAmerica, Inc., doing business as Pearl Izumi, was organized in January 1989 for the purpose of producing and distributing sporting goods apparel under the Pearl Izumi brand name. Initially the products were designed and/or manufactured by Pearl Izumi of Japan. Currently all products are designed and/or manufactured by DashAmerica, Inc. The Company’s wholly owned European subsidiary, Pearl Izumi GmbH, established in September, 2003, distributes products outside the United States operating primarily in Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Prior to 2004 its European subsidiary, Pearl Izumi Europe B.V., distributed products outside of the United States operating in the same locations and manner as Pearl Izumi GmbH. Pearl Izumi GmbH was established as the operations are mainly based in Germany. Pearl Izumi Europe B.V. will be retained as an inactive subsidiary. Pearl Izumi and its subsidiary’s customers are concentrated in the sportswear industry. Credit risk is generally not significant due to the diversity and geographic distribution of their customers.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pearl Izumi and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market using the standard cost method, which approximates actual (Note 3).

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (three to five years); fixed assets subject to capital leases and leasehold improvements are amortized over their useful lives or lease terms, whichever is shorter. Gains or losses on disposal of property and equipment are recorded at gross proceeds less net book value (Note 4).

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries, whose functional currency is the Euro, are translated into U.S. dollars using the period-end exchange rate, and revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate during each period. Net exchange gains or losses resulting from the translation of foreign financial statements are accumulated and credited or charged directly to a separate component of other comprehensive income. Transaction gains or losses are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

 

Sales of the Company’s products are recognized upon shipment to distributors or customers, which is when title of the goods has transferred, there is persuasive evidence of an agreement or arrangement, the price is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Net sales are arrived at after returns and discounts. Discounts are given for timely payment.

 

Advertising Expenses

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $810.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company records taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed for the expected future impact of temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using current income tax rates, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax is not recognized on the translation of foreign earnings as these are reinvested in those foreign entities.

 

Amortization of Other Assets

 

The trademark and license agreements are recorded at cost. The Company amortizes its trademark using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life, which is 20 years. The Company amortizes its license agreement using the straight-line method over the life of the agreement, or approximately 20 years.

 

Amortization of Footwear Molds

 

The footwear molds are recorded at cost. The Company amortizes its footwear molds based on number of units produced over the estimated useful life of the molds.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company provides for the impairment of long lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (“SFAS No. 144”), Accounting for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets (property, plant and equipment and trademarks) when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment of long-lived asset if the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from its estimated future cash flows. The Company measures an impairment loss as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its estimated fair value. There were no impairment charges during fiscal 2004.

 

Amortization of Discount on Debt

 

The Company amortizes the debt discount using the effective interest method over the term of the debt. The related expense is recorded as interest and was computed at an effective rate of approximately 13.0% for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, in accounting for stock compensation expense related to employees. Had compensation expense for the Company’s stock option plan been determined based on fair values at the grant dates for awards under the plan consistent with the method of accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123”), the Company’s net income would have been decreased to the pro forma amounts indicated below for the year ended December 31:

 

     2004

 

Net income, as reported

   $ 3,534  

Stock based compensation expense under the fair value based method for all awards, net of tax

     (13 )
    


Net income, pro forma

   $ 3,521  
    


 

In accordance with the guidance provided under SFAS No. 123, fair values are based on minimum values. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in the year ended December 31, 2004: dividend yield of zero; expected volatility of zero; risk-free interest rates ranging from 1.09% to 2.59% and an expected term ranging from one to four years. The risk-free interest rate used in the calculations is the yield on the grant date of the average U.S. Government Security with a maturity equal to the expected term of the award.

 

Reclassifications

 

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

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123R”), which replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized by non-public companies in the financial statements based on their fair values as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 will no longer be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing sharebased payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123R, while the retroactive method would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 123R in fiscal 2006 and is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption will have on the financial statements.

The seller is eligible to receive additional cash payments of 3% of the annual increase in net revenues of Pearl Izumi brand products in Europe for the years ending December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006. The amount of additional cash payment for 2004 of € 33 (approximately $45) was paid in 2005.

On January 9, 1997, the Company exercised its option and entered into an agreement to purchase the Pearl Izumi U.S. registered trademarks.

 

Under the agreements, the Company is obligated to pay royalties of 2% of non-United States net sales less certain promotional items through January 1, 2012, with subsequent renewals available thereafter. Royalty expense of $215 is included in cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2004.

 

In February 2005 the Company entered into a purchase agreement for all right, title and interest in and to all trademarks and service marks relating to the Pearl Izumi brand in all territories outside of the United States with the exception of selected countries in Asia and the Middle East. The
