BAIRNCO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OCTOBER 3, 1998 (Unaudited) (1) Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Bairnco" or the "Corporation") after the elimination of all material intercompany accounts and transactions. The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures which are normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Corporation believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The consolidated results of operations for the quarter and nine- month period ended October 3, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year. Certain reclassifications were made to prior year balances in order to conform to the current year presentation. (2) Earnings per Common Share The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128 effective December 15, 1997, and as a result, the Corporation's previously reported quarterly earnings per common share for 1997 have been restated. Earnings per share data is based on net income and not comprehensive income. Statements regarding the computation of earnings per share for the quarters and nine-month periods ended October 3, 1998 and September 27, 1997 are included as Exhibit 11.1 and Exhibit 11.2, respectively, to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. (3) Comprehensive Income In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"), which is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS 130 established standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. This statement requires that all items of comprehensive income are classified by their nature in a financial statement and that the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income be displayed separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The comparative prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Comprehensive income includes net income as well as certain other transactions shown as changes in stockholders' investment. For Bairnco, comprehensive income includes net income plus the change in net asset values of foreign divisions as a result of translating the local currency values of net assets to US dollars at varying exchange rates. Accumulated other comprehensive income consists solely of foreign currency translation adjustments. There are currently no tax expenses or benefits associated with the foreign currency translation adjustments. (4) Inventories Inventories consisted of the following as of October 3, 1998 and December 31, 1997: 1998 1997 Raw materials and supplies $ 5,450,000 $ 5,646,000 Work in process 6,623,000 6,402,000 Finished goods 14,689,000 14,350,000 Total inventories $26,762,000 $26,398,000 (5) Accrued Expenses Accrued expenses consisted of the following as of October 3, 1998 and December 31, 1997: 1998 1997 Salaries and wages $ 1,804,000 $ 2,353,000 Income taxes 633,000 139,000 Insurance 1,940,000 2,216,000 Litigation 984,000 1,461,000 Other accrued expenses 4,076,000 4,374,000 Total accrued expenses $ 9,437,000 $10,543,000 (6) Contingencies Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries are defendants in certain legal actions which are discussed more fully in Part II, Item 1 ("Legal Proceedings") of this filing. Item 2:MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and related notes and with Bairnco's Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 1997. Bairnco Corporation is a diversified multinational company that operates two distinct businesses under the names Arlon and Kasco. Engineered materials and components are designed, manufactured and sold under the Arlon brand identity to electronic, industrial and commercial markets. These products are based on common technologies in coating, laminating, polymers and dispersion chemistry. Arlon's principal products include high performance materials for the printed circuit board industry, cast and calendered vinyl film systems, custom engineered laminates and pressure sensitive adhesive systems, and calendered and extruded silicone rubber insulation products used in a broad range of industrial, consumer and commercial products. Replacement products and services are manufactured and distributed under the Kasco name principally to retail food stores and meat, poultry and fish processing plants throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. The principal products include replacement band saw blades for cutting meat, fish, wood and metal, on site maintenance services and seasonings for ready- to-cook foods for the retail food industry primarily in the meat and deli departments. Kasco also distributes equipment to the food industry in Canada and France. These products are sold under a number of brand names including Kasco in the United States and Canada, Atlantic Service in the United Kingdom, and Bertram & Graf and Biro in Continental Europe. Comparison of Third Quarter 1998 to Third Quarter 1997 The results for the third quarter 1998 were generally in line with expectations given the adverse economic events that began in the second quarter. The downturn in the Asian and emerging markets and the strong U.S. dollar continue to depress a number of the Corporation's domestic and international markets. The decline seems to be over but there is little evidence of a recovery in the markets affected. Sales in the third quarter 1998 were $37,747,000, a decrease of 5.2% from $39,814,000 in 1997. Arlon third quarter sales decreased 8.5% over prior year. The decrease in the electronics and electrical markets and the impact of the General Motors strike more than offset the modest gains in the graphics and general industrial markets. The soft industrial markets combined with the strong U.S. dollar and the Asian economic problems all served to intensify pricing pressures in both domestic and industrial markets. Kasco sales increased 2.9% reflecting improved sales at Kasco's European divisions. Gross profit decreased 13.0% to $11,825,000 from $13,586,000 as a result of the decreased sales and the continuing price pressures in the electronics and electrical industries and in export markets. The gross profit margin as a percent of sales decreased from 34.1% in 1997 to 31.3% in 1998. Selling and administrative expenses decreased 2.6% to $9,461,000 from $9,717,000. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expenses increased from 24.4% to 25.1%. Interest expense increased to $502,000 in 1998 as compared to $486,000 in 1997 due primarily to higher average borrowings. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 1998 was 37% versus 36% for 1997. The provision for income taxes in both periods includes all applicable federal, state, local and foreign income taxes. Net income decreased 45.8% to $1,173,000 as compared to $2,165,000 in the third quarter of 1997. Diluted earnings per common share decreased 39.1% to $.14 from $.23 as a result of the reduced net income. Comparison of First Nine Months 1998 to First Nine Months 1997 Due to the weak second and third quarter results, sales for the first nine months of 1998 were down 0.7% to $117,523,000 from $118,387,000 in 1997. Gross profit decreased $2,420,000 or 5.9% from $40,674,000 in the first nine months of 1997. The gross profit margin as a percent of sales decreased from 34.4% to 32.6%. The profit margin declines are primarily attributable to the reduced sales and price pressures resulting from the impact of the Asian economic crisis during the second and third quarters. Selling and administrative expenses increased $80,000 to $28,894,000. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expenses increased to 24.6% from 24.3%. Interest expense increased $130,000 as compared to the first nine months of 1997. This increase was primarily the result of higher average borrowings. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 1998 was 37% versus 36.3% in 1997. The provision for income taxes in both periods includes all applicable federal, state, local and foreign income taxes. Net income decreased 25.8% to $4,957,000 from $6,685,000 and diluted earnings per common share decreased 21.1% to $.56 from $.71. Liquidity and Capital Resources At October 3, 1998, Bairnco had working capital of $34.2 million compared to $35.7 million at December 31, 1997. The increase in accounts receivable relates primarily to the increase in export business which has longer payment terms. Inventories are down approximately $1.3 million from the end of the second quarter consistent with programs initiated in the second quarter to reduce these inventories during the remainder of 1998. Accrued expenses are down from December 31, 1997 primarily due to 1997 accrued bonuses that were paid out during the first quarter 1998 and payments to our attorneys for defending the asbestos litigation. During the first quarter 1998, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $5,000,000 to be available for the ongoing repurchase of Bairnco's common stock. The Board has authorized management to continue its stock repurchase program subject to market conditions and capital requirements of the business. During the third quarter Bairnco repurchased 199,500 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $1.3 million. Total shares repurchased during the first nine months of 1998 were 559,100. At October 3, 1998, Bairnco's total debt outstanding was $33,102,000 compared to $30,318,000 at the end of 1997. This increase was primarily due to the stock repurchases. At October 3, 1998 approximately $15.8 million was available for borrowing under the Corporation's secured reducing revolving credit agreement, as amended. In addition, approximately $2.6 million was available under various short-term domestic and foreign uncommitted credit facilities. Bairnco made approximately $1.5 million of capital expenditures during the third quarter of 1998 bringing the total capital expenditures for 1998 to $4,777,000. Total capital expenditures for 1998 are expected to approximate $7 million. Cash provided by operating activities plus the amounts available under the existing credit facilities are expected to be sufficient to fulfill Bairnco's anticipated cash requirements in 1998. Year 2000 Compliance As stated in Bairnco's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Corporation has evaluated and identified its internal risks of software failure due to processing errors arising from calculations using the Year 2000 date. The plan that was established to maintain the integrity of its financial systems and ensure the reliability of its operating systems is proceeding on schedule. The estimated cost of achieving Year 2000 compliance remains at approximately $250,000 and includes software and installation costs to be incurred during 1998 and 1999. In January of 1998 Bairnco adopted a formal plan to address the Year 2000 issue. This plan has defined roles, identified staff members to execute the plan, set target dates, and provided a detailed budget. The plan also incorporates the use of outside consultants. Bairnco has compiled a checklist for all areas that may be affected by this issue. The Corporation has formed task forces at each of its operating divisions and charged them with doing thorough and complete audits of their facilities using the checklist as a guide. The Corporation is aware of some hardware issues and has assembled a plan to have the outmoded equipment replaced by next year. Bairnco has assessed the software in use at all of its operations and identified applications that do not currently process using a four-digit field to record the date. The Corporation is in the process of adapting or replacing any such programs and expects to have the work completed on schedule. Bairnco has contacted the majority of its suppliers and customers with whom the Corporation has a material business relationship regarding their Year 2000 state of readiness. The responses to date have indicated they are, or expect to be, Year 2000 compliant. Based on the results of our efforts to date as discussed above, the Corporation believes it will not experience any material disruption in its operations due to Year 2000 issues with its computer software programs and operating systems or its interface with key suppliers and vendors. However, the implementation and validation of Bairnco's information technology ("IT") and non-IT systems, and the evaluation of the state of readiness of Bairnco's material business partners are ongoing. The disruption in service of any critical suppliers or the failure of the Corporation's operating systems to comply, could result in a shutdown of the operations affected for the duration of the disruption. The Corporation has not developed a contingency plan but intends to determine whether to develop such a plan during 1999. Other Matters Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of legal actions and proceedings which are discussed in more detail in Part II, Item 1 ("Legal Proceedings") of this filing. Management of Bairnco believes that the disposition of these actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated results of operations or the financial position of Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries as of October 3, 1998. Outlook We believe the decline in the electronics and electrical markets has abated but there is no evidence of a meaningful recovery. Other general industrial markets have shown some softness. New products and penetration of new markets have partially mitigated the negative impact. We continue to reduce costs while maintaining the engineering, research, and sales resources to develop new products and markets and to focus on continuous cost improvements. These actions will partially offset the ongoing negative impact of weak markets. New products and the penetration of new markets will continue at Arlon. However, the operating results for the fourth quarter of 1998 are expected to be below 1997 results. Management is not aware of any adverse trends that would materially affect the Corporation's strong financial position. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Bairnco has been named as a defendant in a number of personal injury and wrongful death cases in which it is alleged that Bairnco is derivatively liable for the asbestos-related claims against its former subsidiary, Keene Corporation ("Keene"). On December 6, 1993, Keene filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On June 8, 1995, the Keene Creditors' Committee commenced an adversary proceeding in the Bankruptcy Court against Bairnco, its subsidiaries, certain of its present and former officers and directors, and others alleging that the transfer of assets for value by Keene to other subsidiaries of Bairnco, and the spin-offs of certain other subsidiaries by Bairnco, were fraudulent and otherwise violative of state law (the "Transactions Lawsuit") and seeking compensatory damages of $700 million, plus interest and punitive damages. The complaint in the Transactions Lawsuit also includes a count under the civil RICO statute, 18 U.S.C. Section 1964, pursuant to which compensatory damages are trebled. Bairnco also is the defendant in a separate action originally brought by Keene in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in which Keene sought the exclusive benefit of tax refunds attributable to the carryback by Keene of certain net operating losses ("NOL Refunds"), notwithstanding certain provisions of tax sharing agreements between Keene and Bairnco (the "NOL Lawsuit"). (After filing the NOL Lawsuit, Keene ceded control of the action to the Creditors' Committee.) Pending resolution of the NOL Lawsuit, any refunds actually received are to be placed in escrow. Through April 4, 1998, approximately $28.5 million of NOL Refunds had been received and placed in escrow. There can be no assurance whatsoever that resolution of the NOL Lawsuit will result in the release of any portion of the NOL Refunds to Bairnco. Keene's plan of reorganization was approved and became effective on July 31, 1996. The plan, as approved, creates a Creditors Trust that has succeeded to all of Keene's asbestos liabilities, and also has succeeded to the right to prosecute both the Transactions Lawsuit and the NOL Lawsuit. The plan also includes a permanent injunction under which only the Creditors Trust, and no other entity, can sue Bairnco in connection with the claims asserted in these lawsuits. By order entered April 10, 1997, the Transactions Lawsuit was transferred from the Bankruptcy Court to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, where it will be litigated. Bairnco and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim as well as motions for summary judgment on the grounds that the complaint is time-barred. On February 6, 1998, the court issued an opinion granting the motions to dismiss of four of the defendants in the Transactions Lawsuit. On October 13, 1998, the court issued an opinion denying the summary judgment motions brought by Bairnco and certain other defendants on statute of limitations grounds. In the same opinion, the court granted the motions to dismiss brought by Bairnco and certain other defendants, to the extent of dismissing plaintiffs' claims under the RICO statute, and denied the motions to the extent of permitting plaintiffs' claims under state law to go forward. Defendant Kaydon Corporation has made a motion, in which Bairnco will join, for reconsideration by the district court, or certification of an interlocutory appeal, of the portion of the opinion denying the statute of limitations motion. The court has reserved decision on the remaining motions to dismiss or for summary judgment, which were brought by individual defendants. There can be no assurance that the remaining motions will result in dismissal of any part of the Transactions Lawsuit. On January 6, 1998, the Creditors Trust filed a motion, to which Bairnco consented, to have the NOL Lawsuit transferred from the Bankruptcy Court to the District Court. That motion is pending. Management believes that Bairnco has meritorious defenses to all claims or liability purportedly derived from Keene and that it is not liable, as an alter ego, successor, fraudulent transferee or otherwise, for the asbestos-related claims against Keene or with respect to Keene products. Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of other actions. Management of Bairnco believes that the disposition of these other actions, as well as the actions and proceedings described above, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated results of operations or the financial position of Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries as of October 3, 1998.
