See accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. 7 8 GREY ADVERTISING INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. As permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto have been condensed and therefore do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 2. The financial statements as of March 31, 1995 and for the three months ended 1995 and 1994 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair representation have been included. 3. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 4. The computations of net income per common share for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect, if any, of the assumed exercise of dilutive stock options and of shares payable in Common Stock pursuant to the Company's Senior Management Incentive Plan and, for fully diluted net income per common share, the assumed conversion of the 8-1/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures issued in December 1983. Also, for the purpose of computing net income per common share for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and March 31, 1994, the Company's net income was reduced by dividends on the Preferred Stock and also adjusted by the change in the redemption value of Preferred Stock. Primary net income per common share is computed as if the stock options were exercised at the beginning of the period and as if the funds obtained thereby were used to purchase Common Stock at the market price during the period. In computing fully diluted net income per common share, the market price at the close of the period or the average market price, whichever was higher, was used to determine the number of shares which would be assumed to be repurchased. The market price for a share of Class B Common Stock, which is not publicly traded, is deemed to be equal to the market price of a share of Common Stock, into which a share of Class B Common Stock may be converted at the option of the holder, as of the date such valuation is made. 5. The provision for taxes on income is greater than the Federal statutory rate principally due to state and local income taxes and effective foreign tax rates that are in excess of the Federal statutory rate. 8 9 6. As of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, the Company had outstanding 20,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock, 5,000 shares each of its Series II and Series III Preferred Stock, and 2,000 shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock which were sold to certain current and former employees, including one senior executive, for a combination of cash and full recourse promissory notes (which are included in Other Assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet). Each share of Preferred Stock is to be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the book value per share attributable to one share of Common Stock and one share of Class B Common Stock pertaining upon redemption (subject to certain adjustments), less a fixed discount established upon the issuance of the Preferred Stock. The holders of each class of Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative preferential dividends at the annual rate of $.25 per share, and to participate in dividends on one share of the Common Stock and one share of the Class B Common Stock to the extent such dividends exceed the per share preferential dividend. The redemption date for the Series I, Series II and Series III Preferred Stock is fixed at April 7, 2004. The terms of the Series I, Series II and Series III Preferred Stock also give the holder, his estate or legal representative, as the case may be, the option to require the Company to redeem his Preferred Stock for a period of 12 months following his (i) death, (ii) permanent disability or permanent mental disability, (iii) termination of full-time employment for good reason or (iv) termination of full-time employment by the Company without cause. The holder of the Series 1 Preferred Stock has the option to have his shares redeemed upon termination of his employment prior to age 65; the Company is obligated to redeem such shares following the attainment of age 65 by such holder thereof following termination of employment. 9 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Income from commissions and fees increased 14.3% during the first quarter of 1995 when compared to the same period in 1994. Absent exchange rate fluctuations, gross income increased 10.0% in 1995 when compared to the same period in 1994. In the first quarter of 1995 and 1994, respectively, 45.6% and 47.8% of consolidated gross income was attributable to domestic operations and 54.4% and 52.2% to international operations. The increase in gross income primarily resulted from expanded activities from existing clients and the continued growth of the Company's general agency and specialized operations. In the first quarter of 1995, gross income from domestic operations increased 8.9% versus the respective prior period. Gross income from international operations increased 19.2% in the first quarter of 1995 when compared to the same period in 1994. Salaries and employee related expenses increased 16.3% in 1995 when compared to the respective prior period. Office and general expenses increased 13.1% in 1995 versus the respective prior period. These changes are generally in line with the increase in gross income. Inflation did not have a material effect on either revenue or expenses during 1995 or 1994. Minority interest increased by $335,000 in the first quarter of 1995 as compared to the respective prior period. The increase is primarily due to changes in the level of profits of majority-owned companies. Equity in earnings of nonconsolidated affiliated companies increased by $101,000 in the first quarter of 1995 as compared to the respective prior period. The increase is primarily due to changes in the level of profits of nonconsolidated affiliated companies. The effective tax rate decreased to 52.6% in the first quarter of 1995 from 55.0% in the same period in 1994. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the lower amount of nondeductible expenses (principally goodwill amortization) for tax purposes in the first quarter of 1995 as compared to the respective prior period. 10 11 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) Net income increased by 15.0% when compared to net income in the same period in 1994. Net income for the first three months of 1995 was favorably affected by a reduction of amortization expense resulting from a non-cash goodwill write-off in the fourth quarter of 1994. Primary net income per common share increased by 8.4% from the first quarter of 1994. Fully diluted net income per common share increased by 7.8% from the first quarter of 1994. For purposes of computing primary net income per common share, the Company's net income was reduced by (i) dividends paid on the Company's Preferred Stock and (ii) the change in redemption value of the Preferred Stock. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Working capital decreased by $2,051,000 from $33,735,000 at December 31, 1994 to $31,684,000 at March 31, 1995. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $44,265,000 from $170,077,000 to $125,812,000. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is largely attributable to the settlement of year-end payable balances which were higher at the end of 1994. Domestically, the Company has committed lines of credit totaling $40,000,000. These lines of credit were partially utilized during the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 to secure obligations of selected foreign subsidiaries. There was $15,000,000 and $14,740,000 outstanding under these credit lines as of March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Other lines of credit are available to the Company in foreign countries in connection with short-term borrowings and bank overdrafts used in the normal course of business. There were $54,190,000 and $28,824,000 outstanding at March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. 11 12 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
