PART I

Item 1 - Business

General

As used herein, the term "Company" refers to Kimball International, Inc., the Registrant, and its subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise.

The Company was incorporated in Indiana in 1939. The corporate headquarters is located at 1600 Royal Street, Jasper, Indiana.

The Company provides a variety of products from its two business segments: the Furniture segment and the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. The Furniture segment provides furniture for the office and hospitality industries, sold under the Company's family of brand names. The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment provides engineering and manufacturing services which utilize common production and support capabilities to a variety of industries globally. Production occurs in Company-owned or leased facilities located in the United States, Mexico, Thailand, China, Poland, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, the Company has facilities and showrooms in 12 states and the District of Columbia.

The Company's Furniture segment was previously referred to as the Furniture and Cabinets segment.

The Company's Internet website and the information contained therein or incorporated therein are not intended to be incorporated into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

  Acquisitions

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company acquired Reptron Electronics, Inc. ("Reptron"), a U.S. based electronics manufacturing services company which provides engineering services, electronics manufacturing services, and display integration services. Reptron had four manufacturing operations located in Tampa, Florida; Hibbing, Minnesota; Gaylord, Michigan; and Fremont, California. The acquisition is included in the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment and will increase the Company's capabilities and expertise in support of the Company's long-term strategy to grow business in the medical electronics and high-end industrial sectors.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operations of Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited ("BDML") and its parent company, Bayer HealthCare LLC, a member of the worldwide group of companies headed by Bayer AG. This acquisition better positions the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment of the Company to capitalize on growth opportunities in the medical market. The BDML workforce and their capabilities have added to the Electronics' segment package of value that is offered to medical customers. Also during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired a printed circuit board assembly operation in Longford, Ireland from Magna Donnelly Electronics Longford Limited. Both of these acquisitions emphasize the Company's strategic expansion of global capabilities and responsiveness in serving its customers.

The acquisitions are discussed in further detail in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 7 and in Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

  Restructuring

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company finalized a restructuring plan within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Gaylord, Michigan.  This facility was one of four facilities acquired in the acquisition of Reptron.  With the acquisition, the Company recognized it would have excess capacity in North America.  Management developed a plan as of the acquisition date to consolidate capacity within the acquired facilities.  Based on a review of future growth potential in various geographies and input from existing customers regarding future capacity needs, it was determined that the Gaylord facility's automotive electronics business would transfer to other electronics manufacturing sites located in Jasper, Indiana and Nanjing, China.  The Gaylord facility and some of the equipment will be sold.  The Company expects to cease production during the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 and complete all restructuring activities by the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008.  Planned expenditures include employee severance and transition costs which have been recognized as part of the purchase price allocation, not impacting earnings, and an immaterial amount related to inventory transfers and post-closing activities which will impact earnings as the costs are incurred.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company approved a restructuring plan within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Northern Indiana. As part of this restructuring plan, the production for select programs was transferred to other locations within this segment. Operations at this facility ceased in the Company's first quarter of fiscal year 2007, and the remaining facility is classified as held for sale. The plan included employee transition costs, asset impairment costs, accelerated software amortization costs, and other exit costs. The decision to exit this facility was a result of excess capacity in North America.

As part of the Company's plan to sharpen focus and simplify business processes within the Furniture segment, the Company announced during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, a plan which included consolidation of administrative, marketing, and business development functions to better serve the segment's primary markets. To simplify and standardize business processes, a portion of the Company's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software is being redesigned. Expenses related to this plan include software impairment, accelerated amortization, employee severance, and other consolidation costs. The ERP redesign efforts are expected to continue during approximately the next year.

Additional information regarding the Company's restructuring activities is located in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 7 and in Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

  Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company approved a plan to exit the production of wood rear projection television ("PTV") cabinets and stands within the Furniture segment, which resulted in the exit of the Company's Juarez, Mexico operation. For some time, the market demand for wood rear PTV cabinets had been declining due to the market shift to plasma and LCD large-screen televisions, and the Company responded to this trend. In August 2004, the Company sold the building in Juarez and subsequently leased back a much smaller manufacturing footprint in the same facility to reduce excess capacity. Thereafter, during fiscal year 2006, the Company further consolidated its two Mexican wood rear PTV cabinet and stand operations into the one smaller Juarez facility. Production ceased at the Juarez facility during the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, and all inventory has been sold. Miscellaneous wrap-up activities including disposition of remaining equipment were complete as of June 30, 2007. The lease on the building expires in August 2009, and the Company is attempting to sublease its portion of the facility. As a result of ceasing operations at this facility, the fiscal year-to-date and previous fiscal years financial results associated with the Mexican operations in the Furniture segment were classified as discontinued operations beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2006, and all prior periods were restated. The discontinued operations are discussed in further detail in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 7 and in Note 18 - Discontinued Operations of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Segments

   Furniture

  Overview

Since 1950, the Company has produced wood furniture and cabinets. During fiscal year 2007, the Company ceased manufacturing contract private label products as it increased focus on core markets. These core markets include office furniture sold under the Kimball Office and National Office Furniture brand names and hospitality furniture sold under the Kimball Hospitality brand name. Kimball Office and National Office Furniture provide office furniture solutions for private offices, open floor plan areas, conference rooms, training rooms, lobby, and lounge areas with a vast mix of wood, metal, laminate, paint, and fabric options.  Products include desks and credenzas, seating, tables, systems/dividers, filing and storage units, and accessories such as audio visual boards and task lighting.  Additionally, Kimball Office sells floor-to-ceiling room dividers and wall panels.  Kimball Office products tend to focus on the more complex customer solutions and National Office Furniture products are geared more to the mid-market/less complex/lower cost aspect of the office furniture market.  Kimball Hospitality provides furniture solutions for hotel properties, timeshare properties, condominiums, and mixed use developments.  Products include room headboards and footboards, desks, tables, floor-to-ceiling wall panels, in-room seating, lobby and lounge furniture, and headboard lighting.  Also included in this segment are the Company's trucking fleet and customer fulfillment centers, which handle primarily product of this segment; but certain logistics services, such as backhauls, are sold on a contract basis. Sales revenue of the Furniture segment is generally not affected by seasonality with the exception of certain product lines which are impacted by the buying patterns of customers such as the U.S. Federal Government whose purchases of the Company's product are generally higher in the first half of the Company's fiscal year.

  Locations

The Company's office and hospitality furniture products as of June 30, 2007 are produced at eleven plants: eight located in Indiana, two in Kentucky, and one in Idaho. The Company continually assesses manufacturing capacity and has adjusted such capacity in recent years. During fiscal year 2007, the Company ceased production at its leased furniture manufacturing facility in Mexico and is attempting to sublease the facility.

A facility in Indiana houses shared services such as engineering, finish development, and sample production. Another facility in Indiana houses an Education Center for dealer and employee training, a Research and Development Center, and a Corporate Showroom for product display. Office space is leased in Dongguan, Guangdong, China to facilitate sourcing of product from Pacific Rim countries. Office furniture showrooms are maintained in nine cities in the United States.

  Marketing Channels

Kimball Office and National brands of office furniture are marketed through Company salespersons to end users, office furniture dealers, wholesalers, rental companies, and catalog houses throughout North America and on an international basis. Hospitality furniture is marketed to end users using independent manufacturers' representatives.

  Major Competitive Factors

The Company's furniture is sold in the office furniture and hospitality furniture industries. These industries have similar major competitive factors which include price in relation to quality and appearance, the utility of the product, supplier lead time, reliability of on-time delivery, and the ability to respond to requests for special and non-standard products. The Company offers payment terms similar to industry standards and in unique circumstances may allow alternate payment terms.

Certain industries are more price sensitive than others, but all expect on-time, damage-free delivery. The Company maintains sufficient finished goods inventories to be able to offer prompt shipment of certain lines of Kimball Office and National office furniture as well as most of the Company's own lines of hospitality furniture. The Company also produces contract hospitality furniture to customers' specifications and shipping timelines. Many office furniture products are shipped through the Company's delivery system, which the Company believes offers it the ability to reduce damage to product, enhance scheduling flexibility, and improve the capability for on-time deliveries.

  Competitors

There are numerous manufacturers of office and hospitality furniture competing within the marketplace, with a significant number of competitors offering similar products. The Company believes, however, that there are a limited number of relatively large manufacturers of wood office and hospitality furniture. In many instances wood office furniture competes in the market with metal office furniture. Based on available industry statistics, metal office furniture has a larger share of the total office furniture market.

The Company's competition includes office furniture manufacturers such as Steelcase, Inc., Herman Miller, Inc., Knoll, Inc., Haworth, Inc., and HNI Corporation and hospitality furniture manufacturers such as American of Martinsville, Fleetwood Fine Furniture, Inc., Thomasville Furniture Industries, Inc., and Fairmont Designs.

  Raw Material Availability

Certain components used in the production of furniture are manufactured internally within the segment and are generally readily available, as are other raw materials used in the production of wood furniture. With the exception of rolled steel, raw materials used in the manufacture of metal office furniture have been readily available in the global market. While we have been able to maintain an appropriate supply of rolled steel to meet demand, general supply limitations in the market are impacting our costs. Certain fabricated seating components and wood frame assemblies as well as finished furniture products, which are generally readily available, are sourced on a global scale in an effort to provide a quality product at the lowest total cost.

   Electronic Contract Assemblies

  Overview

The Company entered the electronic manufacturing services (EMS) market in 1985 with knowledge acquired from the production of electronic organs, which were first produced in 1963. The Company's focus is on electronic assemblies that have high durability requirements such as automotive, medical, industrial, and public safety applications. Electronics and electro-mechanical products (electronic assemblies) are sold globally on a contract basis and produced to customers' specifications. The Company's engineering and manufacturing services primarily entail the insertion and attachment of microchips and other electronic capacitors and conductors in ever more complex and smaller designs onto multi-layered circuit boards, the production of wiring harnesses and other electronic equipment, assembling such into sub or final products, testing of products under a series of harsh conditions, and assembly and packaging of electronic and other related products, all to the specifications and designs of our customers.  Integrated throughout this segment is customer program management over the life cycle of the product along with supply chain management, which affords customers the opportunity to focus their attention and resources to sales, marketing, and product development as they sell their unique end products under their brand name into various markets and industries.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired an operation in Wales, United Kingdom which currently provides manufacturing services for medical diagnostic systems such as assembling and packaging medical test strips and assembling and testing of electronic diagnostic testers. This facility is FDA certified and was acquired to support the Company's efforts to capitalize on growth opportunities in the medical market. The Company also acquired a printed circuit board assembly operation in Longford, Ireland during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006. Late in fiscal year 2007, the Company began production in a manufacturing facility built in Nanjing, China. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company also acquired Reptron whereby Reptron became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Reptron will increase the Company's capabilities and expertise in support of the Company's long-term strategy to grow in the medical and industrial control markets.

Sales revenue of the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment is generally not affected by seasonality with the exception of the buying patterns of automotive industry customers whose purchases of the Company's product are generally lower in the first quarter of the Company's fiscal year.

6


  Locations

As of June 30, 2007 the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment consists of twelve manufacturing facilities with two located in Indiana and one in each of Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, California, China, Mexico, Thailand, Poland, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. During fiscal year 2007, the Company exited one Indiana facility not included above pursuant to a restructuring plan announced during fiscal year 2006 which was driven by excess North American capacity. The Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, and California facilities were acquired via the Reptron acquisition during fiscal year 2007. The Ireland and United Kingdom facilities were acquired by the Company during fiscal year 2006. The contract electronics manufacturing industry in general has been faced with excess capacity. The Company has not been immune to the economic slowdown and continually evaluates its operations as to the most optimum capacity and service levels by geographic region and has announced plans to exit the above-mentioned Michigan facility. Operations located outside of the United States continue to be an integral part of the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. See Item 1A - Risk Factors for information regarding financial and operational risks related to the Company's international operations.

  Marketing Channels

Manufacturing and engineering services are marketed by the Company's business development team. Contract electronic assemblies are manufactured based on specific orders, generally resulting in a small amount of finished goods consisting primarily of goods awaiting shipment to specific customers.

  Major Competitive Factors

Key competitive factors in the EMS market are competitive pricing, quality and reliability, engineering design services, production flexibility, on-time delivery, customer lead time, test capability, and global presence. Growth in the EMS industry is created through the proliferation of electronic components in today's advanced products along with the continuing trend of original equipment manufacturers in the electronic industry to subcontract the assembly process to companies with a core competence in this area. The nature of the EMS industry is such that the start-up of new customers and new programs to replace expiring programs occurs frequently. New customer and program start-ups generally cause losses early in the life of a program, which are generally recovered as the program matures and becomes established. The segment continues to experience margin pressures related to an overall excess capacity position in the EMS industry and more specifically this segment's new program launches and diversification efforts. The continuing success of this segment is dependent upon its ability to replace expiring customers/programs with new customers/programs.

  Competitors

The EMS industry is very competitive as numerous manufacturers of contract electronic assemblies compete for business from existing and potential customers. The Company's competition includes EMS companies such as Benchmark Electronics, Inc., Jabil Circuit, Inc., and Plexus Corp. The Company does not have a significant share of the EMS market.

7


  Raw Material Availability

Raw materials utilized in the manufacture of contract electronic products are generally readily available from both domestic and foreign sources, although from time to time the industry experiences shortages of certain components due to supply and demand forces, combined with rapid product life cycles of certain components. Raw materials are normally acquired for specific customer orders and may or may not be interchangeable among products. Inherent risks associated with rapid technological changes within this contract industry are mitigated by procuring raw materials, for the most part, based on firm orders.

  Customer Concentration

While the total electronic assemblies market has broad applications, the Company's customers are concentrated in the automotive, industrial, and medical industries. As a result of the acquisition of the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operations of Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited in the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, sales to Bayer AG entities under common control are significant and accounted for approximately 30% of this segment's net sales in fiscal year 2007, compared to 13% in fiscal year 2006 and 4% in fiscal year 2005. Sales to Bayer AG companies accounted for approximately 15% of the Company's consolidated net sales in fiscal year 2007, compared to 6% and 2% in fiscal years 2006 and 2005, respectively. Also included in this segment are sales of electronic assemblies to TRW Automotive, Inc., a full-service automotive supplier, which accounted for approximately 14% of this segment's net sales in fiscal year 2007, compared to 27% in fiscal year 2006 and 30% in fiscal year 2005. Sales to TRW Automotive, Inc. accounted for approximately 8% of the Company's consolidated net sales in fiscal year 2007, compared to 12% and 13% in fiscal years 2006 and 2005, respectively. TRW Automotive, Inc. sells complete braking assemblies, in part manufactured by the Company, to several major automotive companies, most with multiple braking assembly programs that span multiple vehicle platforms, which partially mitigates the Company's exposure to this customer. The Company also supplies electronic power steering products to TRW Automotive, Inc.

The Company owns the Kimball (registered trademark) trademark, which it believes is significant to its office furniture, hospitality furniture, and electronics businesses, and owns the following patents and trademarks which it believes are significant to its furniture business only: National (registered trademark), Cetra (registered trademark), Footprint (registered trademark), Traxx (patented and registered trademark), Interworks (registered trademark), Xsite (registered trademark), Definition (registered trademark), Skye (registered trademark), WaveWorks (registered trademark), Senator (registered trademark), President, and Prevail (registered trademark). The Company also owns certain patents and other trademarks and has certain other trademark and patent applications pending, which in the Company's opinion are not significant to its business. Patents owned by the Company expire at various times depending on the patent's date of issuance.

  Environment and Energy Matters

The Company's operations are subject to various foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations with respect to environmental matters. The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with present laws and regulations and that there are no material liabilities related to such items.

The Company is dedicated to excellence, leadership, and stewardship in matters of protecting the environment and communities in which the Company has operations. Reinforcing the Company's commitment to the environment, four of the Company's showrooms have been designed under the guidelines of the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) for Commercial Interiors program. The Company believes that continued compliance with foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations which have been enacted relating to the protection of the environment will not have a material effect on its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. Management believes capital expenditures for environmental control equipment during the two fiscal years ending June 30, 2009, will not represent a material portion of total capital expenditures during those years.

The Company's manufacturing operations require significant amounts of energy, including natural gas and oil. Federal and state statutes and regulations control the allocation of fuels available to the Company, but to date the Company has experienced no interruption of production due to such regulations. In its wood processing plants, a portion of energy requirements are satisfied internally by the use of the Company's own wood waste products.

  Item 1A - Risk Factors

The following important risk factors, among others, could affect future results and events, causing results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements made in this report and presented elsewhere by management from time to time. Such factors, among others, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations and should be carefully considered. It is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, any such list should not be considered to be a complete statement of all the Company's potential risks or uncertainties. Because of these and other factors, past performance should not be considered an indication of future performance.

Downturns in economic and market conditions could adversely impact demand for the Company's products and adversely affect operating results. Market demand for the Company's products, which impacts revenues and gross profit, is influenced by a variety of economic factors such as:

  • general corporate profitability of the Company's end markets;
     

  • new office construction and refurbishment rates;
     

  • new hotel and casino construction and refurbishment rates;
     

  • automotive industry fluctuations, specifically variation in the performance and market share of U.S. based auto manufacturers;
     

  • changes in the medical device industry;
     

  • demand for end-user products which include electronic assembly components produced by the Company;
     

  • excess capacity in the industries in which the Company competes; and
     

  • changes in customer order patterns, including changes in product quantities, delays in orders or cancellation of orders.

The Company must make decisions based on order volumes in order to achieve efficiency in manufacturing capacities.  These decisions include determining what level of additional business to accept, production schedules, component procurement commitments, and personnel requirements, among various other considerations. The Company must constantly monitor the changing economic landscape and may modify its strategic direction based upon the changing business environment. If the Company does not react quickly enough to the changes in market or economic conditions, it could result in lost customers, decreased market share, and increased operating costs.

The Company operates in a highly competitive environment and may not be able to compete successfully. The electronic manufacturing services industry is very competitive as numerous manufacturers compete globally for business from existing and potential customers. The office and hospitality furniture industries are also competitive due to numerous global manufacturers competing in the marketplace. The high level of competition in these industries impacts the Company's ability to implement price increases or, in some cases, even maintain prices, which could lower profit margins.

11


The Company faces pricing pressures that could adversely affect the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company faces pricing pressures in both of its segments, especially the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment, as a result of intense competition, emerging products or over-capacity. While the Company works toward reducing costs to respond to pricing pressures, if the Company cannot achieve the proportionate reductions in costs, profit margins may suffer.  As end markets dictate, the Company is continually assessing excess capacity and developing plans to better utilize manufacturing operations, including consolidating and shifting manufacturing capacity to lower cost venues as necessary.

Reduction of purchases by or the loss of one or more key customers could reduce revenues and profitability. Losses of key contract customers within specific industries or significant volume reductions from key contract customers are both risks. In addition, continuing success of the Company is dependent upon replacing expiring contract customers/programs with new customers/programs. One of the Company's customers, TRW Automotive, Inc., accounted for approximately 8%, 12%, and 13% of consolidated net sales in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. As a result of the acquisition of the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operations of Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited in the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, sales to Bayer are also significant and accounted for 15%, 6%, and 2% of consolidated net sales in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. Significant declines in the level of purchases by these customers within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment or other key customers in either of the Company's segments, or the loss of a significant number of customers, could have a material adverse effect on business. In addition, the nature of the contract electronics manufacturing industry is such that the start-up of new customers and new programs to replace expiring programs occurs frequently, and new customer and program start-ups generally cause losses early in the life of a program. Furthermore, the Company is exposed to the credit risk of customers, including risk of bankruptcy, and is subject to losses from accounts receivable.

The Company's future operating results depend on the ability to purchase a sufficient amount of materials, parts, and components at competitive prices. The Company depends on suppliers globally to provide timely delivery of materials, parts, and components for use in the Company's products. Maintaining strong relationships with key suppliers of components critical to the manufacturing process is essential. If suppliers fail to meet commitments to the Company in terms of price, delivery or quality, it could interrupt the Company's operations and negatively impact the Company's ability to meet commitments to customers.

The Company could be adversely affected by increased commodity costs or availability of raw materials. Price increases of commodity components could have an adverse impact on profitability if the Company cannot offset such increases with other cost reductions or by price increases to customers. In recent years, the Company has experienced increases in the prices of key commodities used in Furniture segment products, such as steel and wood composite sheet stock.  Raw materials utilized by the Company are generally available, but future availability is unknown and could impact the Company's ability to meet customer order requirements.

The Company could be impacted by manufacturing inefficiencies at certain locations. At times the Company may experience labor or other manufacturing inefficiencies due to items such as new product introductions, a new operating system or turnover in personnel. Manufacturing inefficiencies could have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

A change in the Company's sales mix among various products could have a negative impact on the gross profit margin. Changes in product sales mix could negatively impact the gross margin of the Company as margins of different products vary. The Company strives to improve the margins of all products, but certain products have lower margins in order to price the product competitively or in connection with the start-up of a new program. An increase in the proportion of sales of product with lower margins could have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

12


The Company's restructuring efforts may not be successful. During fiscal year 2007, the Company announced a restructuring plan to exit an electronics manufacturing facility in Gaylord, Michigan which was one of four facilities obtained via the Reptron acquisition.  With the acquisition, the Company recognized it would have excess capacity in North America, thus management developed a plan as of the acquisition date to consolidate capacity within the acquired facilities.  During fiscal year 2006, the Company announced restructuring activities that included increasing its focus within the Furniture segment to better serve primary markets. The plan includes the consolidation of administrative, marketing, and business development functions within the Furniture segment, which is not yet complete. While the Company believes that these actions will result in a more competitive position and should also reduce certain costs, there are inherent risks in making these types of organizational changes. The Company continually evaluates its manufacturing capabilities and capacities in relation to current and anticipated market conditions. The success of restructuring initiatives is dependent on several factors and may not be accomplished as quickly or effectively as anticipated.

Acquisitions by their nature may present risks to the Company. The Company's sales growth plans may occur through both organic growth and acquisitions. Acquisitions involve many risks, including:

  • difficulties in identifying suitable acquisition candidates and in negotiating and consummating acquisitions on terms attractive to the Company;
     

  • difficulties in the assimilation of the operations of the acquired company;
     

  • the diversion of resources, including diverting management's attention from current operations;
     

  • risks of entering new geographic or product markets in which the Company has limited or no direct prior experience;
     

  • the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;
     

  • the potential incurrence of indebtedness to fund the acquisition;
     

  • the potential issuance of common stock for some or all of the purchase price, which could dilute ownership interests of the Company's current shareholders;
     

  • the acquired business may not achieve anticipated revenues, earnings, cash flow or market share;
     

  • excess capacity;
     

  • the assumption of undisclosed liabilities; and
     

  • dilution of earnings.

The above risks could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

13


Start-up operations could present risks to the Company's current operations. The Company is committed to growing its business, and therefore from time to time the Company may determine that it would be in its best interests to start up a new operation. Start-up operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties, such as funding the capital expenditures related to the start-up operation, developing a management team for the new operation, diversion of management focus away from current operations, and creation of excess capacity. Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  A successful start-up of the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment operation in China is critical for securing future customers for this newly constructed operation.  The Company has recently received final customer approval to start production in this facility.

Our international operations involve financial and operational risks. The Company has operations outside the United States, primarily in China, Thailand, Poland, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Mexico. The Company's international operations are subject to a number of risks, which may include the following:

  • economic and political instability;
     

  • changes in foreign regulatory requirements and laws;
     

  • tariffs and other trade barriers;
     

  • potentially adverse tax consequences; and
     

  • foreign labor practices.

These risks could have an adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, fluctuations in exchange rates could impact our operating results. The Company's risk management strategy includes the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge certain foreign currency exposures. Any hedging techniques the Company implements in the future contain risks and may not be entirely effective. Exchange rate fluctuations could also make the Company's products more expensive than competitor's products not subject to these fluctuations, which could adversely affect the Company's revenues and profitability in international markets.

If the Company's efforts to introduce new products are not successful, this could limit sales growth or cause sales to decline. The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment depends on industries that utilize technologically advanced electronics components which often have short life cycles. The Company must continue to invest in advanced equipment and product development to remain competitive in this area. The Furniture segment regularly introduces new products to keep pace with workplace trends and evolving regulatory and industry requirements, including environmental, health, safety, and similar standards for the workplace and for product performance. The introduction of new products requires the coordination of the design, manufacturing, and marketing of such products. The design and engineering of certain new products can take up to two years or more, and further time may be required to achieve customer acceptance. Accordingly, the launch of any particular product may be delayed or be less successful than originally anticipated by the Company. Difficulties or delays in introducing new products or lack of customer acceptance of new products could limit sales growth or cause sales to decline.

14


If customers do not perceive the Company's products to be of high quality, the Company's brand and name recognition could suffer. The Company believes that establishing and maintaining brand and name recognition is critical to business. Promotion and enhancement of the Company's brands will depend on the effectiveness of marketing and advertising efforts and on successfully providing high quality products and superior services. If customers do not perceive our products and services to be of high quality, the Company's brand and name recognition could suffer, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

A loss of independent manufacturing representatives, dealers, or other sales channels could lead to a decline in sales of the Company's Furniture segment products. The Company's office furniture is marketed primarily through Company salespersons to end users, office furniture dealers, wholesalers, rental companies, and catalog houses. The Company's hospitality furniture is marketed to end users using independent manufacturing representatives. A significant loss within any of these sales channels could result in a sales decline and thus have an adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company must effectively manage working capital. The Company has historically had positive operating cash flows, but effective management of working capital is key to continuing that trend. The Company closely monitors inventory and receivable efficiencies and continuously strives to improve these measures of working capital but customer financial difficulties or Company manufacturing delays could cause deteriorating working capital trends.

The Company's assets could become impaired. As business conditions change, the Company must continually evaluate and work toward the optimum asset base. It is possible that certain assets such as, but not limited to, facilities, equipment, intangible assets, or goodwill could be impaired at some point in the future depending on changing business conditions. If assets of the Company become impaired the result could be an adverse impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

There are inherent uncertainties involved in estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP). Any changes in estimates, judgments and assumptions could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company's financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the preparation of such financial statements includes making estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and related reserves, revenues, expenses, and income. Estimates are inherently subject to change in the future, and such changes could result in corresponding changes to the amounts of assets, liabilities, income or expenses and likewise could have an adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company could be subject to additional tax liabilities, interest, and penalties. The Company is subject to income taxes as well as non-income based taxes, in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. Judgment is required in determining the worldwide provision for income taxes, other tax liabilities, interest, and penalties. Future events could change management's assessment. The Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions. These audits can involve complex issues, which may require an extended period of time to resolve. The Company has also made assumptions about the realization of deferred tax assets. Changes in these assumptions could result in a valuation allowance for these assets. Final determination of tax audits or tax disputes may be different from what is currently reflected by the Company's income tax provisions and accruals.

15


A failure to successfully implement information technology solutions could adversely affect the Company. The Company's business depends on effective information technology systems. Information systems require an ongoing commitment of significant resources to maintain and enhance existing systems and develop new systems in order to keep pace with changes in information processing technology and evolving industry standards. Implementation delays or poor execution of information technology systems could disrupt the Company's operations and increase costs.

An inability to protect the Company's intellectual property could have a significant impact on business. The Company attempts to protect its intellectual property rights, both in the United States and in foreign countries, through a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, as well as licensing agreements and third-party nondisclosure and assignment agreements. Because of the differences in foreign laws concerning proprietary rights, the Company's intellectual property rights do not generally receive the same degree of protection in foreign countries as they do in the United States, and therefore in some parts of the world the Company has limited protections, if any, for its intellectual property. Competing effectively depends, to a significant extent, on maintaining the proprietary nature of the Company's intellectual property. The degree of protection offered by the claims of the various patents and trademarks may not be broad enough to provide significant proprietary protection or competitive advantages to the Company, and patents or trademarks may not be issued on pending or contemplated applications. In addition, not all of the Company's products are covered by patents. It is also possible that the Company's patents and trademarks may be challenged, invalidated, cancelled, narrowed or circumvented.

A third party could claim that the Company has infringed on their intellectual property rights. The Company could be notified of a claim regarding intellectual property rights which could lead to the Company spending time and money to defend or address the claim. Even if the claim is without merit, it could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.

The Company's insurance may not adequately protect the Company from liabilities related to product defects. The Company maintains product liability and other insurance coverage that the Company believes to be generally in accordance with industry practices. However, our insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect the Company fully against substantial claims and costs that may arise from liabilities related to product defects, particularly if the Company has a large number of defective products or if the root cause is disputed.

The Company's failure to maintain Food and Drug Administration (FDA) registration of one or more of its registered manufacturing facilities could negatively impact the Company's ability to produce products for customers in the medical industry.  The Company is diversifying the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment which includes increasing sales to customers in the regulated medical industry.  To maintain FDA registration, the Company is subject to FDA audits of the manufacturing process.  FDA audit failure could result in a partial or total suspension of production, fines, or criminal prosecution. Failure or noncompliance could have an adverse effect on the Company's reputation in addition to an adverse impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

The Company is subject to extensive environmental regulation and significant potential environmental liabilities. The past and present operation and ownership by the Company of manufacturing plants and real property are subject to extensive and changing federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to discharges in air, water, and land, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, and the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances. The Company cannot predict what environmental legislation or regulations will be enacted in the future, how existing or future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted or what environmental conditions may be found to exist. Compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, or stricter interpretation of existing laws, may require additional expenditures by the Company, some of which could be material. In addition, any investigations or remedial efforts relating to environmental matters could involve material costs or otherwise result in material liabilities.

The Company's failure to retain the existing management team and continue to attract qualified personnel could adversely affect the Company's business. The Company's culture and guiding principles focus on continuous training, motivating, and development of employees, and it strives to attract, motivate, and retain qualified managerial personnel. Failure to retain and attract qualified personnel could adversely affect the Company's business.

Turnover in personnel could cause manufacturing inefficiencies. The demand for manufacturing labor in certain geographic areas makes it difficult to retain experienced production employees. Turnover could result in additional training and inefficiencies that could impact the Company's operating results.

16


Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may impact the Company's production schedules and, in turn, negatively impact profitability. Natural disasters or other catastrophic events, including severe weather, terrorist attacks, power interruptions, and fires, could disrupt operations and likewise the ability to produce or deliver the Company's products.  The Company's manufacturing operations require significant amounts of energy, including natural gas and oil, and governmental regulations control the allocation of such fuels to the Company.  In the event the Company experiences a temporary or permanent interruption in its ability to produce or deliver product, revenues could be reduced, and business could be materially adversely affected. In addition, catastrophic events, or the threat thereof, can adversely affect U.S. and world economies, and could result in delayed or lost sales of the Company's products. In addition, any continuing disruption in the Company's computer system could adversely affect the ability to receive and process customer orders, manufacture products, and ship products on a timely basis, and could adversely affect relations with customers, potentially resulting in reduction in orders from customers or loss of customers. The Company maintains insurance to help protect the Company from costs relating to these matters but such may not be sufficient or paid in a timely manner to the Company in the event of such an interruption.

The requirements of being a public company may strain the Company's resources and distract management. The Company is subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Among other requirements, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that the Company maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. The Company has, and expects to continue to, expend significant management time and resources maintaining documentation and testing internal control over financial reporting. While management's evaluation as of June 30, 2007 resulted in the conclusion that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of that date, the Company cannot predict the outcome of testing in future periods. If the Company concludes in future periods that its internal control over financial reporting is not effective, or if its independent registered public accounting firm is not able to render the required attestations, it could result in lost investor confidence in the accuracy, reliability, and completeness of the Company's financial reports.

The value of the Company's common stock may experience substantial fluctuations for reasons over which the Company has little control. The value of common stock could fluctuate substantially based on a variety of factors, including, among others:

  • actual or anticipated fluctuations in operating results;
     

  • announcements concerning the Company, competitors or industry;
     

  • overall volatility of the stock market;
     

  • changes in government regulations;
     

  • changes in the financial estimates of securities analysts or investors regarding the Company, the industry or competitors; and
     

  • general market or economic conditions.

Furthermore, stock prices for many companies fluctuate widely for reasons that may be unrelated to their operating results. These fluctuations, coupled with changes in results of operations and general economic, political, and market conditions, may adversely affect the value of the Company's common stock.

   Total 3,757,000 1,295,000 378,000 5,430,000
 



During fiscal year 2007, within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment, the Company exited an Auburn, Indiana facility, and as a result of the Reptron acquisition, now occupies facilities in Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, and California.  The Company plans to exit the Michigan facility during fiscal year 2008.  The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment manufacturing facility constructed in China began production during the latter portion of fiscal year 2007.  Also during fiscal year 2007, the Company ceased production at its leased Furniture segment manufacturing facility in Mexico.

Included in Unallocated Corporate are executive, national sales and administrative offices, a recycling facility, a child development facility, and a training and education center and corporate showroom.  The Company sold the child development facility during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.

18


All leased and owned facilities of the Company, including those major facilities listed above plus leased furniture showroom areas, total approximately 6.2 million square feet.  Several unutilized facilities are held for sale or offered for lease. (See Note 5 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning leases.)

Generally, properties are utilized at normal capacity levels on a multiple shift basis. At times, certain facilities utilize a reduced second or third shift. Due to sales fluctuations, not all facilities were utilized at normal capacity during the 2007 fiscal year.

Significant loss of income resulting from a facility catastrophe would be partially offset by business interruption insurance coverage.

Operating leases for all facilities and related land, including idle facilities and eight leased showroom facilities, total 715,000 square feet and expire from fiscal year 2008-2056 with many of the leases subject to renewal options. The leased showroom facilities are in seven states and the District of Columbia.

The Company owns approximately 27,900 acres of land which includes land where various Company facilities reside, including approximately 27,300 acres generally for hardwood timber reserves and approximately 180 acres of land in the Kimball Industrial Park, Jasper, Indiana (a site for certain production and other facilities, and for possible future expansions).  The Company leases approximately six acres of land in Laem Chabang, Thailand where it has an electronics manufacturing facility, with the lease expiring in 2030.   The Company also leases approximately nine acres in Nanjing, China where it has an electronics manufacturing facility, with the lease expiring in 2056.

Item 3 - Legal Proceedings

The Registrant and its subsidiaries are not parties to any pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, which individually, or in aggregate, are not expected to be material.

Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matters were submitted to a vote of the Company's security holders during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007.

Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business Overview

Kimball International, Inc. provides a variety of products from its two business segments: the Furniture segment and the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. The Furniture segment provides furniture for the office and hospitality industries, sold under the Company's family of brand names. The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment provides engineering and manufacturing services which utilize common production and support capabilities to a variety of industries globally.

Management currently considers the following events, trends, and uncertainties to be most important to understanding its financial condition and operating performance:

  • Globalization continues to reshape not only the industries in which the Company operates but also its key customers.
  • Competitive pricing, especially for suppliers of electronic contract assemblies to customers in the automotive industry, continues to put pressure on the Company's operating margins. Within the Furniture segment, pricing remains competitive on select projects.
  • Though the Company's efforts have resulted in improvements at various locations, the Company's results continue to be hindered by manufacturing inefficiencies and excess capacity at select operations.
  • As reported by the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer Association (BIFMA International), year-over-year growth in the office furniture industry is forecasted for the remainder of calendar year 2007.
  • The nature of the electronic manufacturing services industry is such that the start-up of new programs to replace departing customers or expiring programs occurs frequently, and the new programs often carry lower margins. The success of the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment is dependent on the successful replacement of such customers or programs. Such changes usually occur gradually over time as old programs phase out of production while newer programs ramp up.
  • Softness in the U.S. automotive end market continues, and a portion of the electronic component parts produced by the Company are used in completed assemblies in vehicles produced by U.S. automotive manufacturers, some of which are currently in the midst of executing restructuring activities.
  • The Company continues to focus on diversification of the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment customer base. With the fiscal year 2007 and 2006 acquisitions, the proportion of sales to customers in the medical industry has increased as a percent of total Electronic Contract Assemblies segment sales.
  • Successful integration of the Company's acquisitions is critical to the Company's future performance. Recent acquisitions are discussed in more detail in the below section entitled "Acquisitions."
  • A successful start-up of the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment operation in China is critical for securing future customers for this newly constructed operation. The China facility has received several new orders from multiple customers, and it achieved production certification and began shipping product late in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007.


24


  • Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment was impacted by a reduction in the pricing of select raw material which is purchased from a major customer, Bayer AG and affiliates. The selling price of the finished product back to that customer has likewise been reduced by an amount equal to the material price reduction. Since inception, this pricing change reduced net sales and material cost by approximately $64 million. Gross profit dollars were not impacted, but the fiscal year 2007 consolidated gross profit percent of net sales measure increased approximately 1.0 percentage point as a result of this pricing change. There was no impact to net income and net cash flows.
  • With the fiscal year 2007 and 2006 acquisitions, the Company's sales mix is shifting toward the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. Since the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment operates at a lower gross profit percentage than the Furniture segment, consolidated gross profit is trending down when compared to pre-acquisition levels. The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment operates at lower selling, general and administrative (SG&A) cost as a percent of sales, which has the effect of improving the consolidated SG&A percentage.
  • The Company's net cash position from an aggregate of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, less short-term borrowings totaled $80 million at June 30, 2007.
  • The increasingly competitive marketplace mandates that the Company continually re-evaluate its business models.
  • The regulatory and business environment for U.S. public companies requires that the Company continually evaluate and enhance its practices in the areas of corporate governance and management practices.
  • The Company's employees throughout its business operations are an integral part of the Company's ability to compete successfully, and the stability of its management team is critical to long-term Share Owner value.


To address these and other trends and events, the Company has taken, or continues to consider and take, the following actions:

  • As end markets dictate, the Company is continually assessing excess capacity and developing plans to better utilize manufacturing operations, including shifting manufacturing capacity to lower cost venues as necessary.
  • As part of a restructuring plan announced in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, the business processes within the Furniture segment are being simplified and standardized, and business functions are being consolidated.
  • The Company exited the manufacture of contract private label products to further sharpen its focus on primary markets in the Furniture segment. As part of this planned exit, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company exited the production of wood rear projection television (PTV) cabinets and stands resulting in the closure of the Company's Juarez, Mexico manufacturing facility.
  • During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company finalized a restructuring plan within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Gaylord, Michigan. This plan is discussed in more detail in the Restructuring section below.
  • As part of the Company's diversification plan for the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company acquired Reptron. This acquisition is discussed in more detail in the Acquisitions section below and in Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operation of Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited, which better positions the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to capitalize on growth opportunities in the medical market. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company also acquired an electronics manufacturing operation in Longford, Ireland from Magna Donnelly Electronics Longford Limited.
  • The Company has taken a number of steps to conform its corporate governance to evolving national and industry-wide best practices among U.S. public companies, not only to comply with new legal requirements, but also to enhance the decision-making process of the Board of Directors.
  • The Company continues to evaluate means to preserve the value of its experienced employees and management team and further align their interests with those of the Share Owners.


The preceding statements could be considered forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, a significant change in economic conditions, loss of key customers or suppliers, or similar unforeseen events.

Acquisitions

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company acquired Reptron, a U.S. based electronics manufacturing services company which provides engineering services, electronics manufacturing services, and display integration services. The acquisition is included in the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment and increased the Company's capabilities and expertise in support of the Company's long-term strategy to grow business in the medical electronics and high-end industrial sectors. The operating results of this acquisition are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operation of Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited ("BDML") from BDML and its parent company, Bayer HealthCare LLC, a member of the worldwide group of companies headed by Bayer AG. This acquisition better positions the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment of the Company to capitalize on growth opportunities in the medical market. The workforce and its capabilities have added to the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment's package of value offered to its medical customers. Also during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company acquired an electronics manufacturing operation in Longford, Ireland from Magna Donnelly Electronics Longford Limited. Both of these acquisitions emphasize the Company's strategic expansion of global capabilities and responsiveness in serving the Company's customers.

Restructuring

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company finalized a restructuring plan within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Gaylord, Michigan. This facility was one of four facilities acquired in the recent acquisition of Reptron, as described in Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. With the acquisition, the Company recognized it would have excess capacity in North America. Management developed a plan as of the acquisition date to consolidate capacity within the acquired facilities. Based on a review of future growth potential in various geographies and input from existing customers regarding future capacity needs, it was determined that the Gaylord facility's automotive electronics business would transfer to other electronics manufacturing sites located in Jasper, Indiana and Nanjing, China. The Gaylord facility and some of the equipment will be sold. The Company expects to cease production during the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 and complete all restructuring activities by the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008. Planned expenditures include employee severance and transition costs which have been recognized as part of the purchase price allocation, not impacting earnings, and an immaterial amount related to inventory transfers and post-closing activities which will impact earnings as the costs are incurred.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2006, the Company approved a restructuring plan within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Northern Indiana. As part of this restructuring plan, the production for select programs was transferred to other locations within this segment. Operations at this facility ceased in the Company's first quarter of fiscal year 2007, and the remaining facility is classified as held for sale. The plan included employee transition costs, accelerated software amortization costs, accelerated asset depreciation, and other restructuring costs which were partially offset by gains on the sale of equipment net of other asset impairment. The decision to exit this facility was a result of excess capacity in North America.

As part of the Company's plan to sharpen focus and simplify business processes within the Furniture segment, the Company announced during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, a plan which included consolidation of administrative, marketing, and business development functions to better serve the segment's primary markets. To simplify and standardize business processes, a portion of the Company's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software is being redesigned. Expenses related to this plan include accelerated software amortization, asset impairment, and employee transition and other costs. The ERP redesign efforts are expected to be complete during the next year.

The restructuring plans are discussed in further detail in Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

26


Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company approved a plan to exit the production of PTV cabinets and stands within the Furniture segment, which resulted in the exit of the Company's Juarez, Mexico operation. For some time, the market demand for wood rear PTV cabinets had been declining due to the market shift to plasma and LCD large-screen televisions, and the Company responded to this trend. In August 2004, the Company sold the building in Juarez and subsequently leased back a much smaller manufacturing footprint in the same facility to reduce excess capacity. Thereafter during fiscal year 2006, the Company further consolidated its two Mexican wood rear PTV cabinet and stand operations into the one smaller Juarez facility. Production ceased at the Juarez facility during the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, and all inventory has been sold. Miscellaneous wrap-up activities including disposition of remaining equipment are complete. The lease on the building expires in August 2009, and the Company is attempting to sublease its portion of the facility. As a result of ceasing operations at this facility, the financial results associated with the Mexican operations in the Furniture segment were classified as discontinued operations beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2006, and all prior periods were restated.

During fiscal year 2006, the Company sold a forest products hardwood lumber business unit, a business unit which produced and sold fixed-wall furniture systems, and an operation that manufactured polyurethane and polyester molded components. During fiscal year 2005, the Company exited the branded residential furniture business and a veneer slicing operation. All five business units were part of the Furniture segment. The cessation of these non-core operations did not impact any of the remaining operations of the Company. The results of the above-mentioned operations are reported as discontinued operations in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

See Note 18 - Discontinued Operations of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the discontinued operations.

Financial results of the discontinued operations were as follows:

Related Party Disclosure

During fiscal year 2006, the Company's forest products hardwood lumber operation which has been accounted for as a discontinued operation was sold to Indiana Hardwoods, Inc. Barry L. Cook, President of Indiana Hardwoods, Inc. was formerly employed by the Company as a Vice President of Kimball International, Inc. and had responsibility for this hardwoods lumber operation. The transaction prices were negotiated between the Company and Indiana Hardwoods, Inc. The Company also considered offers from other interested outside parties, but determined that it was in the Company's best interest financially to sell this operation to Indiana Hardwoods, Inc. The purchase price totaled $25.5 million, of which $23.5 million was collected at closing and $2.0 million remains a note receivable. The Company has no other ongoing commitments resulting from the sales agreement.

FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment

The Company maintains stock-based employee compensation plans. Prior to fiscal year 2006, the Company accounted for the plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations (APB 25). Accordingly, because all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant, no expense related to employee stock options was recognized in income. However, expense related to other share-based awards such as restricted share units (RSUs) and performance shares had been recognized in the income statement under APB 25. Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123(R)). Under the modified prospective method of adoption selected by the Company, beginning in fiscal year 2006, the Company began recognizing compensation expense related to stock options, but compensation cost in fiscal year 2005 related to stock options continues to be disclosed on a pro forma basis only in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

After-tax stock option expense recognized during fiscal years 2007 and 2006 totaled $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The Company estimates after-tax expense for previously issued stock options will approximate $0.1 million for fiscal year 2008, assuming a constant estimated forfeiture rate.

As of June 30, 2007, there was approximately $6.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested performance shares, based on the latest estimated attainment of performance goals. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.6 years. As of June 30, 2007, there was approximately $3.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested Restricted Share Units (RSU) awarded under the plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

FAS 123(R) requires that forfeitures be estimated over the vesting period of an award, rather than being recognized as a reduction of compensation expense when the forfeiture actually occurs. FAS 123(R) also requires that liability awards be revalued to fair value, which, upon the adoption of FAS 123(R) in fiscal year 2006, had the effect of a reduction of a liability for outstanding stock appreciation rights. The impact of the revaluation of the stock appreciation rights and the use of the estimated forfeiture method for periods prior to fiscal year 2006 totaled $0.3 million of income, net of taxes, and is presented on the Consolidated Statements of Income for fiscal year 2006 as a Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle, as required by FAS 123(R).

During fiscal year 2006, the Company shifted from issuing RSUs, which vest based solely on the passage of time, as a management retention vehicle, to awards of performance shares. The Company has not awarded stock options since fiscal year 2004.

See Note 8 - Stock Compensation Plans of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Fiscal Year 2007 Results of Operations

The following discussions are based on income from continuing operations and therefore exclude all income statement activity of the discontinued operations and the cumulative effect of the accounting change.

Financial Overview - Consolidated

Fiscal year 2007 consolidated net sales were $1.29 billion compared to fiscal year 2006 net sales of $1.11 billion, a 16% increase over fiscal year 2006. Acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 and in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007 within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment contributed net sales of $319.3 million in fiscal year 2007 and $61.5 million in fiscal year 2006. Income from continuing operations for fiscal year 2007 was $23.3 million, or $0.60 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $0.9 million, or $0.02 per Class B diluted share. Fiscal year 2006 income from continuing operations was $28.6 million, or $0.75 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $2.8 million, or $0.07 per Class B diluted share.

Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales in fiscal year 2007 was 20.3% compared to 22.4% in fiscal year 2006. With the fiscal year 2007 and 2006 acquisitions, the Company's sales mix continues to shift toward the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. Since the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment operates at a lower gross profit percentage than the Furniture segment, this is contributing to the consolidated gross profit downward trend. The fiscal year 2007 Electronic Contract Assemblies segment gross profit percentage declined compared to fiscal year 2006 while the fiscal year 2007 Furniture segment gross profit percentage improved compared to fiscal year 2006.

Consolidated selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased in absolute dollars but decreased as a percent of net sales compared to fiscal year 2006. The decline in consolidated SG&A costs as a percent of net sales was due to the leverage of the additional net sales from the acquisitions and the shift in sales mix toward the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment, which has a lower SG&A percentage than the Furniture segment.

Fiscal year 2007 other income decreased compared to fiscal year 2006 primarily due to $2.2 million pre-tax income relating to funds received in fiscal year 2006 as part of a Polish offset credit program for investments made in the Company's Poland operation.

The fiscal year 2007 effective income tax rate was 36% as compared to a 27% effective income tax rate in fiscal year 2006. The increased effective income tax rate was related to a higher mix of income being generated by domestic operations in fiscal year 2007, which carry a higher effective tax rate, coupled with the negative effect of losses generated by select foreign operations which have a lower effective tax rate. For fiscal year 2006, in addition to the positive impact of a higher mix of income being generated at foreign operations, the fiscal year 2006 effective tax rate was also driven down by $1.6 million for adjustments to income tax accruals resulting from the favorable closure of several prior year tax audits.

Comparing the balance sheets as of June 30, 2007 to June 30, 2006, the increased balances in the Company's receivables, inventories, goodwill, and property and equipment were primarily related to the acquisition of Reptron. Likewise, the decline in the Company's cash and short-term investment balances was primarily a result of the Reptron acquisition. Other long-term assets increased on higher supplemental employee retirement plan investment balances and restricted cash.  An increase in accounts payable related to the Reptron acquisition was partially offset by a reduction in accounts payable at the Company's other operations.

Furniture Segment

Furniture segment net sales and open orders were as follows:
 
  At or For the Year Ended    
  June 30    
 
  2007 2006   % Change
 

 
(Amounts in Millions)        
Net Sales:        
Furniture Segment        
   Branded Furniture $602.9   $573.8            5%  
   Contract Private Label Furniture 11.1   38.8     (71%)

   Contract Private Label Furniture --   2.0     (100%)
 

   
   Total $ 95.3   $ 96.7     (1%)
 

   


Price increases net of higher discounting increased fiscal year 2007 net sales of branded furniture, which includes office and hospitality furniture, by approximately $2.3 million as compared to fiscal year 2006. Increased net sales volumes of hospitality furniture also contributed to the increased branded furniture net sales level. Fiscal year 2007 sales of newly introduced office furniture products which the Company began selling during fiscal year 2007 approximated $24.0 million. Branded furniture products open orders at June 30, 2007 were 1% higher than open orders at June 30, 2006 as higher hospitality furniture open orders offset lower office furniture open orders. Net sales of contract private label products decreased in conjunction with the planned exit of this product line.

The Furniture segment income from continuing operations was $17.8 million in fiscal year 2007, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $0.8 million, compared to income from continuing operations of $17.3 million in fiscal year 2006, which included $2.3 million of after-tax restructuring charges. The fiscal year 2007 and fiscal year 2006 restructuring charges were primarily related to the consolidation and standardization of administrative, marketing, and business development functions within this segment. Fiscal year 2007 gross profit as a percent of net sales increased 0.4 percentage point when compared to fiscal year 2006. Items which positively impacted gross profit during fiscal year 2007 included price increases on select furniture products, lower workers compensation expense, and a sales mix shift away from lower margin contract private label products. Conversely, fiscal year 2007 gross profit was negatively impacted by higher discounting on select furniture products and a shift in sales mix among branded furniture products. As compared to fiscal year 2006, fiscal year 2007 SG&A expenses increased in absolute dollars and as a percent of net sales as lower incentive compensation costs were more than offset by increases in other SG&A costs, including increased investments for product marketing and promotion and for additional sales staff in support of the Company's sales growth strategy.

See Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on restructuring charges.

Risk factors within this segment include, but are not limited to, general economic and market conditions, increased global competition, supply chain cost pressures, and relationships with strategic customers and product distributors. Additional risk factors that could have an effect on the Company's performance are located within Item 1A - Risk Factors.

Electronic Contract Assemblies Segment

Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales and open orders were as follows:

 

  At or For the Year Ended    
  June 30    
 
  2007 2006   % Change
 

 
(Amounts in Millions)        
Net Sales:        
Electronic Contract Assemblies Segment $673.0   $496.7            35%     
         
Open Orders:        
Electronic Contract Assemblies Segment $235.7   $130.6            80%     


Fiscal year 2007 Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales increased $176.3 million, or 35%, from fiscal year 2006 due to the acquisitions. Acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006 and in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007 within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment contributed sales of $319.3 million in fiscal year 2007 and $61.5 million in fiscal year 2006. A selling price change to a major customer reduced fiscal year 2007 net sales by approximately $64 million. See the discussion below for more information on this selling price change. Increased sales to customers in the medical and industrial control industries more than offset decreased sales to customers in the automotive industry driven by declines in the domestic automotive market. Excluding acquisitions, sales to customers in the medical industry would have declined.

The open orders increase was driven by the acquisitions. Due to the contract nature of the Company's business, open orders at a point in time may not be indicative of future sales trends.

Electronic Contract Assemblies segment fiscal year 2007 income from continuing operations totaled $1.0 million, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $0.1 million, as compared to fiscal year 2006 income from continuing operations of $6.5 million, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $0.5 million. The restructuring charges were related to the exit of a North American manufacturing facility as discussed in more detail in Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, gross profit as a percent of sales was favorably impacted by a reduction in the pricing of select raw material which is purchased from Bayer AG and affiliates, a major customer within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. The selling price of the finished product back to Bayer AG and affiliates was likewise reduced by an amount equal to the material price reduction. While there was no impact to gross profit dollars, net income, or net cash flows related to this pricing change, gross profit as a percent of net sales increased and SG&A as a percent of net sales increased by a similar percentage. This relationship with Bayer AG and affiliates was part of an acquisition completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006.

Fiscal year 2007 gross profit as a percent of net sales declined from fiscal year 2006 as net sales of higher margin mature products, primarily automotive products, reached end of life and were replaced with net sales of lower margin new products including certain assemblies produced at the acquired business units, which more than offset the positive gross profit percentage impact of the above-mentioned Bayer AG selling price change. While the above-mentioned Bayer pricing change negatively impacted SG&A as a percent of net sales, the SG&A as a percent of net sales for this segment declined overall in part due to lower incentive compensation costs. The fiscal year 2007 and 2006 acquisitions also had the effect of lowering this segment's gross profit and SG&A as a percent of net sales.  The acquisitions positively contributed to this segment's earnings.

The fiscal year 2007 and 2006 earnings were unfavorably impacted by after-tax costs, in millions, of $3.5 and $0.4, respectively, related to the start-up of a manufacturing facility in China. The Company has received final customer approval to begin production at this facility. There were minimal sales recorded for the China facility during fiscal year 2007. Fiscal year 2006 income from continuing operations included $1.3 million of after-tax income relating to funds received as part of the Polish offset credit program for investments made in the Company's Poland operation. Fiscal year 2006 Electronic Contract Assemblies segment earnings also benefited from a lower effective tax rate due to adjustments to income tax accruals.

Included in this segment are a significant amount of sales to Bayer AG affiliates and TRW Automotive, Inc. Sales to these two customers accounted for the following portions of consolidated net sales and Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales:

 

  Year Ended June 30


2007 2006



Bayer AG affiliated sales as a percent of consolidated net sales

15%   6%

TRW sales as a percent of consolidated net sales

  8% 12%
Bayer AG affiliated sales as a percent of Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales 30% 13%
TRW sales as a percent of Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales 14% 27%


The reduced TRW Automotive, Inc. percentages of segment and consolidated net sales were a result of certain TRW Automotive, Inc. products reaching end of life in addition to the higher total net sales base resulting from the acquisitions which likewise drove the higher percentages of net sales to Bayer AG affiliates compared to the prior year. In January 2007, Bayer AG sold its diagnostics unit to Siemens AG, and thus a portion of the Company's net sales which were formerly to Bayer AG affiliates are now to Siemens AG. Net sales to Bayer AG affiliates were also impacted in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2007 as a result of the Company's aforementioned selling price reduction to Bayer AG affiliates which was offset by an equal reduction in the material cost. The Company also continues to focus on diversification of the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment customer base.

The nature of the electronic manufacturing services industry is such that the start-up of new customers and new programs to replace expiring programs occurs frequently. New customer and program start-ups generally cause losses early in the life of a program, which are generally recovered as the program matures and becomes established. This segment continues to experience margin pressures related to an overall excess capacity position in the electronics subcontracting services market. New business awards for projects in the automotive industry are extremely competitive.

Risk factors within this segment include, but are not limited to, general economic and market conditions, increased globalization, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, rapid technological changes, component availability, the contract nature of this industry, unexpected integration issues with acquisitions, and the importance of sales to large customers. The continuing success of this segment is dependent upon its ability to replace expiring customers/programs with new customers/programs. Additional risk factors that could have an effect on the Company's performance are located within Item 1A - Risk Factors.

Fiscal Year 2006 Results of Operations

The following discussions are based on income from continuing operations and therefore exclude all income statement activity of the fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005 discontinued operations and the fiscal year 2006 cumulative effect of the accounting change.

Financial Overview - Consolidated

Fiscal year 2006 consolidated net sales were $1.1 billion compared to fiscal year 2005 net sales of $1.0 billion, a 10% increase over fiscal year 2005. Fiscal year 2006 consolidated net sales included $61.5 million from acquisitions that were completed during the fiscal year in the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment. Fiscal year 2006 consolidated income from continuing operations was $28.6 million, or $0.75 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of $2.8 million, or $0.07 per Class B diluted share, of after-tax restructuring costs. Fiscal year 2005 consolidated income from continuing operations was $18.3 million, or $0.48 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per Class B diluted share, of after-tax restructuring costs.

Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales in fiscal year 2006 was 22.4% compared to 22.1% in fiscal year 2005. With the acquisitions completed in fiscal year 2006, the Company's sales mix shifted toward the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment, which operates at a lower gross profit percentage than the Furniture segment. Fiscal year 2006 improved gross profit in the Furniture segment offset the impact of the sales mix shift toward the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment and lower gross profit in the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment.

Consolidated selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased as a percent of net sales, but increased in absolute dollars compared to fiscal year 2005 due to higher incentive compensation costs which are linked to Company profitability.

32


Fiscal year 2006 other income increased compared to fiscal year 2005 on higher interest income and $2.2 million pre-tax income relating to funds received as part of a Polish offset credit program for investments made in our Poland operation. Fiscal year 2005 other income included the benefit of derivative gains which partially offset other related currency fluctuations.

The fiscal year 2006 effective income tax rate was 27% as compared to a 24% effective tax rate in fiscal year 2005. The fiscal year 2006 effective tax rate was lower than the statutory rate due to the positive tax effect of the Company's foreign operations which have a lower effective tax rate than the Company's domestic facilities as well as $1.6 million for adjustments to income tax accruals resulting from the favorable closure of several prior year tax audits. The fiscal year 2005 effective tax rate was also lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the positive tax effect of the Company's foreign operations.

Furniture Segment

Furniture segment net sales and open orders were as follows:
  At or For the Year Ended    
  June 30    
 
  2006 2005   % Change
 

 
(Amounts in Millions)        
Net Sales:        
Furniture Segment        
   Branded Furniture $573.8   $512.8            12%  
   Contract Private Label Furniture 38.8   51.0     (24%)
 

   
   Total $612.6   $563.8     9%

   Contract Private Label Furniture  2.0    5.4     (63%)
 

   
   Total $ 96.7   $ 78.4     23%  
 

   


The branded furniture products net sales increase was due to price increases of approximately $13 million as well as increased volumes of both office and hospitality furniture. The net sales decrease of contract private label products was primarily due to the planned exit of this product line. Branded furniture products open orders at June 30, 2006 were 30% higher than open orders at June 30, 2005 on higher open orders of both office and hospitality furniture. At June 30, 2006, open orders for contract private label products were 63% lower than open orders at June 30, 2005 primarily due to the planned exit.

The Furniture segment income from continuing operations was $17.3 million in fiscal year 2006, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $2.3 million, compared to income from continuing operations of $4.4 million in fiscal year 2005, which included $0.2 million of after-tax restructuring charges. The fiscal year 2006 restructuring charges were related to the consolidation of administrative, marketing, and business development functions within this segment. The fiscal year-over-year earnings improvement was driven by the higher sales volumes and improved gross profit percent. More specifically, income from continuing operations was positively impacted by price increases on select branded furniture products and improved labor efficiencies. Higher employee benefit expenses in fiscal year 2006 partially offset the improvements. As compared to the prior year, fiscal year 2006 SG&A expenses remained flat as a percent of net sales, but increased in absolute dollars due to higher incentive compensation costs which are linked to Company profitability.

See Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on restructuring charges.

Electronic Contract Assemblies Segment

Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales and open orders were as follows:
 
  At or For the Year Ended    
  June 30    
 
  2006 2005   % Change
 

 
(Amounts in Millions)        
Net Sales:        
Electronic Contract Assemblies Segment $496.7    $439.7             13%   
         
Open Orders:        
Electronic Contract Assemblies Segment $130.6    $108.2             21%   



The sales increase was driven by $61.5 million net sales resulting from the fiscal year 2006 acquisitions in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Increased year-over-year sales to customers in the industrial control and medical industries more than offset decreased year-over-year sales to customers in the automotive industry. Within the automotive industry, increased sales to certain customers were more than offset by decreased sales to other customers as certain programs are nearing end of life. At June 30, 2006, open orders for the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment increased 21% from open orders at June 30, 2005 due to the inclusion of open orders of the fiscal year 2006 acquisitions.

Electronic Contract Assemblies segment fiscal year 2006 income from continuing operations totaled $6.5 million, inclusive of after-tax restructuring charges of $0.5 million, a 40% decline from the $10.8 million income from continuing operations in fiscal year 2005. The restructuring charges were related to the exit of a North American manufacturing facility as discussed in more detail in Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The fiscal year 2006 decrease in income from continuing operations was primarily attributable to a decline in gross profit as a percent of net sales which was driven by tighter margins on products due to competitive pricing pressures and a sales mix shift among various products to those with lower margins along with increased employee benefit expenses. Acquisitions completed during fiscal year 2006 also had the effect of lowering this segment's gross profit as a percent of net sales. Partially offsetting the gross profit decline, fiscal year 2006 income from continuing operations was positively impacted by lower new product introduction costs and $1.3 million of after-tax income relating to funds received as part of the Polish offset credit program for investments made in the Company's Poland operation. Fiscal year 2006 Electronic Contract Assemblies segment earnings also benefited from a lower effective tax rate as compared to the fiscal year 2005 rate as fiscal year 2006 included adjustments to income tax accruals.

Included in this segment are a significant amount of sales to TRW Automotive, Inc., a full-service automotive supplier. As a result of the acquisition of the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operations of BDML in the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal year 2006, sales to Bayer AG are also significant. Sales to these two customers accounted for the following portions of consolidated net sales and Electronic Contract Assemblies segment net sales:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's net cash position from an aggregate of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments less short-term borrowings under credit facilities decreased from $149 million at June 30, 2006 to $80 million at June 30, 2007 primarily related to the cash outflow of $51.1 million for acquisitions. 

Working capital at June 30, 2007 was $199 million compared to working capital of $231 million at June 30, 2006. The current ratio was 1.8 at June 30, 2007 and 2.0 at June 30, 2006.

The Company's internal measure of Accounts Receivable performance, also referred to as Days Sales Outstanding (DSO), for fiscal year 2007 increased to 44.0 from 43.1 for fiscal year 2006. The Company defines DSO as the average of monthly accounts and notes receivable divided by an annual average day's net sales. The Company's Production Days Supply on Hand (PDSOH) of inventory measure for fiscal year 2007 increased to 55.7 from 47.8 for fiscal year 2006. The increase was driven by increased inventory levels associated with the acquisitions, in addition to Electronic Contract Assemblies segment increased average inventory balances coupled with declining average daily organic (which exclude acquisitions) sales. The Company defines PDSOH as the average of the monthly gross inventory divided by an annual average day's cost of sales.

The Company does not disclose discontinued operations separately from continuing operations in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. However, for clarity purposes, the Company does separately disclose the adjustment to net income for the gain or loss on disposal of discontinued operations in cash flows from operating activities and the proceeds from disposal of discontinued operations in cash flows from investing activities.

Operating activities generated $44 million of cash flow in fiscal year 2007 compared to $77 million in fiscal year 2006. The reduction in operating cash flow was primarily related to less cash generated from changes in working capital during fiscal year 2007 compared to fiscal year 2006. The Company reinvested $42 million into capital investments for the future, including manufacturing equipment, expenditures related to the new showroom in New York, a new aircraft, expenditures related to the construction of an electronics manufacturing facility in Nanjing, China, and long-haul tractors and trailers. The Company also expended $51 million for acquisitions, most of which relates to the acquisition of Reptron. Fiscal year 2007 financing cash flow activities included $24 million in dividend payments, which remained flat with fiscal year 2006.

At June 30, 2007, the Company's outstanding balance in senior secured notes was $4.5 million. These notes represented the remaining portion of notes originally held by Reptron which was not tendered as of the date of the acquisition. The Company redeemed the notes in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The notes are classified as Current Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  See Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on the Reptron acquisition.

In April 2007, the Company entered into a new credit facility for its electronics operation in Wales, UK. The facility is reviewed annually for renewal and will expire in March 2008 if not renewed at that time. The new credit facility provides a 2 million Sterling (approximately $4 million US dollars at current exchange rates) facility which is available to cover bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts may be deemed necessary to satisfy short-term cash needs rather than funding from intercompany sources. As collateral subject to lien, this facility requires 3 million Euro (approximately $4 million US dollars at current exchange rates) to be held as restricted cash which is classified as other long-term assets on the Company's balance sheet. The restricted cash is held in an account which is interest bearing payable to the Company.  At June 30, 2007, the Company had $3.0 million US dollar equivalent of Sterling-denominated short-term borrowings outstanding under the overdraft facility.

The Company also maintains a $75 million revolving credit facility that allows for both issuances of letters of credit and cash borrowings. At June 30, 2007, the Company had $18.9 million of short-term borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility. The outstanding balance consists of a Euro currency borrowing which provides a natural currency hedge against Euro denominated intercompany notes between the US parent and the Euro functional currency subsidiaries. The Company issued an additional $14.4 million in letters of credit against the revolving credit facility, which reduces total availability to borrow to $41.7 million at June 30, 2007. At June 30, 2006, the Company had $21.0 million of short-term borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $2.1 million short-term borrowings outstanding under a separate foreign facility which is backed by the $75 million revolving credit facility.

The $75 million revolving credit facility also provides an option to increase the amount available for borrowing to $125 million at the Company's request, subject to participating banks' consent. The credit facility requires the Company to comply with certain debt covenants including debt-to-total capitalization, interest coverage ratio, minimum net worth, and other terms and conditions. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2007. See Note 6 - Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the credit facility.

The Company believes its principal sources of liquidity from available funds on hand, cash generated from operations, and the availability of borrowing under the Company's credit facilities will be sufficient in fiscal year 2008 for working capital needs, share repurchases, dividends, and for funding investments in the Company's future, including potential acquisitions. The Company's primary source of funds is its ability to generate cash from operations to meet its liquidity obligations, which could be affected by factors such as a decline in demand for the Company's products, loss of key contract customers, the ability of the Company to generate profits, and other unforeseen circumstances. The Company's secondary source of funds is its credit facilities, one of which is contingent on complying with certain debt covenants. The Company does not expect the covenants to limit or restrict its ability to borrow on the facility in fiscal year 2008. The Company anticipates maintaining a strong liquidity position for the 2008 fiscal year. The Company does not expect the absence of cash flows from discontinued operations to have a material effect on future liquidity and capital resources.

The preceding statements are forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements.

37


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements other than operating leases entered into in the normal course of business. These arrangements do not have a material current effect and are not reasonably likely to have a material future effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. See Note 5 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on prior year guarantees. The Company does not have material exposures to trading activities of non-exchange traded contracts.

The preceding statements are forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and related notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Management uses its best judgment in the assumptions used to value these estimates, which are based on current facts and circumstances, prior experience, and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. The Company's management overlays a fundamental philosophy of valuing its assets and liabilities in an appropriately conservative manner. A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is disclosed in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements and are the policies that are most critical in the portrayal of the Company's financial position and results of operations. Management has discussed these critical accounting policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors and with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenue when title and risk transfer to the customer, which under the terms and conditions of the sale may occur either at the time of shipment or when the product is delivered to the customer. Service revenue is recognized as services are rendered. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as sales while the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold. The Company recognizes sales net of applicable sales tax.

  • Allowance for sales returns - At the time revenue is recognized certain provisions may also be recorded, including returns and allowances, which involve estimates based on current discussions with applicable customers, historical experience with a particular customer and/or product, and other relevant factors. As such, these factors may change over time causing the provisions to be adjusted accordingly. At June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, the reserve for returns and allowances was $3.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively. Over the past two years, the returns and allowances reserve has been approximately 2% of gross trade receivables.
     

  • Allowance for doubtful accounts - Allowance for doubtful accounts is generally based on a percentage of aged accounts receivable, where the percentage increases as the accounts receivable become older. However, management judgment is utilized in the final determination of the allowance based on several factors including specific analysis of a customer's credit worthiness, changes in a customer's payment history, historical bad debt experience, and general economic and market trends. The allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and over the past two years, this reserve has approximated 1% of gross trade accounts receivable.

Excess and obsolete inventory - Inventories were valued using the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market value for approximately 18% and 24% of consolidated inventories at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, including approximately 86% and 83% of the Furniture segment inventories at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The remaining inventories are valued at lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market value. Inventories recorded on the Company's balance sheet are adjusted for excess and obsolete inventory. In general, the Company purchases materials and finished goods for contract-based business from customer orders and projections, primarily in the case of long lead time items, and has a general philosophy to only purchase materials to the extent covered by a written commitment from its customers. However, there are times when inventory is purchased beyond customer commitments due to minimum lot sizes and inventory lead time requirements, or where component allocation or other procurement issues may exist. Evaluation of excess inventory includes such factors as anticipated usage, inventory turnover, inventory levels, and product demand levels. Factors considered when evaluating inventory obsolescence include the age of on-hand inventory and reduction in value due to damage, use as showroom samples, design changes or cessation of product lines.

38


Self-insurance reserves - The Company is self-insured up to certain limits for auto and general liability, workers' compensation, and certain employee health benefits such as medical, short-term disability, and dental with the related liabilities included in the accompanying financial statements. The Company's policy is to estimate reserves based upon a number of factors including known claims, estimated incurred but not reported claims, and actuarial analyses, which are based on historical information along with certain assumptions about future events. Changes in assumptions for such matters as increased medical costs and changes in actual experience could cause these estimates to change and reserve levels to be adjusted accordingly. At June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company's accrued liabilities for self-insurance exposure were $7.0 million and $7.2 million, respectively, excluding immaterial amounts held in a voluntary employees' beneficiary association (VEBA) trust.

Income taxes - Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. These assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The Company evaluates the recoverability of its deferred tax assets each quarter by assessing the likelihood of future profitability and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize its deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, the Company provides a valuation allowance based on its best estimate of future taxable income in the various taxing jurisdictions and the amount of deferred taxes ultimately realizable. Future events could change management's assessment. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions. These audits can involve complex issues, which may require an extended period of time to resolve. However, the Company believes it has made adequate provision for income taxes for all years that are subject to audit. As tax periods are closed, the provision is adjusted accordingly. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions, requires financial statement recognition of the impact of a tax position if a position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, transition, and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. The provisions of FIN 48 will be effective as of the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2008. The cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, which will be recorded in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, is estimated to increase the Company's liability for taxes, interest, and penalties by approximately $1.5 million to $2.5 million and reduce opening retained earnings by the same amount.  The Company continues to evaluate the estimated liability as tax positions are reviewed, including the tax positions related to the purchase price allocations of acquisitions.  Additional information on income taxes is contained in Note 9 - Income Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill - Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the related underlying tangible and intangible net asset values resulting from business acquisitions. Annually, or if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary, the Company compares the carrying value of the reporting unit to an estimate of the reporting unit's fair value. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, goodwill is impaired and will be written down to its estimated fair value. Goodwill is assigned to and the fair value is tested at the reporting unit level. Goodwill related to the fiscal year 2007 acquisition and the two fiscal year 2006 acquisitions was assigned to those reporting units which were expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combinations as of the respective acquisition dates. At June 30, 2007 and 2006 the Company's goodwill totaled, in millions, $15.5 and $3.3, respectively. No goodwill impairment was recorded in fiscal year 2007. The Company recorded pre-tax goodwill impairment of $0.4 million in fiscal year 2006.

New Accounting Standards

Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk: As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company had an investment portfolio of fixed income securities, excluding those classified as cash and cash equivalents, of $67 million and $107 million, respectively.  These securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are stated at market value with unrealized gains and losses recorded net of tax related effect as a component of Share Owners' Equity.  These securities, like all fixed income instruments, are subject to interest rate risk and will decline in value if market interest rates increase.  A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in an annual period in market interest rates from levels at June 30, 2007 and 2006 would cause the fair value of these short-term investments to decline by an immaterial amount.  Further information on short-term investments is provided in Note 12 - Short-Term Investments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on certain outstanding debt balances.  The outstanding loan balances under the Company's credit facilities bear interest at variable rates based on prevailing short-term interest rates.  Based on the $22 million and $23 million outstanding balances of variable rate obligations at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, the Company estimates that a hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates would not have a material effect on annual interest expense.  Further information on debt balances is provided in Note 6 - Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk: The Company operates internationally, and thus is subject to potentially adverse movements in foreign currency rate changes.  The Company's risk management strategy includes the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge certain foreign currency exposures.  Derivatives are used only to manage underlying exposures of the Company and are not used in a speculative manner.  Further information on derivative financial instruments is provided in Note 11 - Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  The Company estimates that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates relative to non-functional currency balances of monetary instruments, to the extent not hedged by derivative instruments, would not have a material impact on profitability in an annual period assuming similar levels of profitability as seen in fiscal years 2007 and 2006.

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Kimball International, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the preparation and integrity of the accompanying financial statements and other related information in this report.  The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the footnotes, were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include judgments and estimates, which in the opinion of management are applied on an appropriately conservative basis.  The Company maintains a system of internal and disclosure controls intended to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded from loss or material misuse, transactions are authorized and recorded properly, and that the accounting records may be relied upon for the preparation of the financial statements.  This system is tested and evaluated regularly for adherence and effectiveness by employees who work within the internal control processes, by the Company's staff of internal auditors, as well as by the independent registered public accounting firm in connection with their annual audit.

Management's assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting excluded Kimball Electronics Tampa, Inc., the surviving entity from the Reptron Electronics, Inc. acquisition in fiscal year 2007.  This acquisition represented 11% and 4% of consolidated total assets and consolidated net sales, respectively, of the Company as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007.  This acquisition is more fully discussed in Note 2-Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for fiscal year 2007.  Under guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission, companies are permitted to exclude acquisitions from their first assessment of internal control over financial reporting within one year of the date of the acquisition.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which is comprised of directors who are not employees of the Company, meets regularly with management, the internal auditors and the independent registered public accounting firm to review the Company's financial policies and procedures, its internal control structure, the objectivity of its financial reporting, and the independence of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.  The internal auditors and the independent registered public accounting firm have free and direct access to the Audit Committee, and they meet periodically, without management present, to discuss appropriate matters.

Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and even when determined to be effective, can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

These consolidated financial statements are subject to an evaluation of internal control over financial reporting conducted under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  Based on that evaluation, conducted under the criteria established in Internal Control -- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2007.

Management's assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, was audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

To the Board of Directors and Share Owners of Kimball International, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kimball International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, share owners' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2007. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15. We also have audited management's assessment, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As described in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded from their assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Kimball Electronics Tampa, Inc., the surviving entity from the Reptron Electronics, Inc. acquisition on February 15, 2007, whose financial statements reflect total assets and net sales constituting 11% and 4%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007.  Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Kimball Electronics Tampa, Inc.  The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedules, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules, an opinion on management's assessment, and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kimball International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. Also, in our opinion, management's assessment that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, based on the criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

KIMBALL INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all domestic and foreign subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

  Revenue Recognition: Revenue from product sales is recognized when title and risk transfer to the customer, which under the terms and conditions of the sale, may occur either at the time of shipment or when the product is delivered to the customer.  Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as sales while the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.  The Company recognizes sales net of applicable sales tax. Service revenue is recognized as services are rendered.  Based on estimated product returns and price concessions, a reserve for returns and allowances is recorded at the time of the sale, resulting in a reduction of revenue.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based upon the estimated collectibility of receivables, and results in an increase in selling expenses.

  Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts included in the consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures.  While efforts are made to assure estimates used are reasonably accurate based on management's knowledge of current events, actual results could differ from those estimates.

  Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments: Cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition.  Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank accounts, money market funds, and variable rate demand notes.  Variable rate demand notes are classified as cash equivalents because they contain features that provide liquidity in three months or less.  Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.  Short-term investments consist primarily of municipal bonds, U.S. Government securities, and auction rate securities with maturities exceeding three months at the time of acquisition.  Available-for-sale securities are stated at market value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from net income and recorded net of related tax effect in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, as a component of Share Owners' Equity.

  Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost includes material, labor, and applicable manufacturing overhead.  Costs associated with underutilization of capacity are expensed as incurred.  The last-in, first-out (LIFO) method was used for approximately 18% and 24% of consolidated inventories in 2007 and 2006, respectively, and remaining inventories were valued using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.  Inventories recorded on the Company's balance sheet are adjusted for excess and obsolete inventory.  Evaluation of excess inventory includes such factors as anticipated usage, inventory turnover, inventory levels, and product demand levels.  Factors considered when evaluating obsolescence include the age of on-hand inventory and reduction in value due to damage, use as showroom samples, design changes or cessation of product lines.

  Property, Equipment and Depreciation: Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of the assets using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes.  Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement or the term of the lease.  Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals and betterments are expensed; major improvements are capitalized.

  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company performs reviews for impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.  An impairment loss is recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount.  When an impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value.  Assets to be disposed of are recorded at the lower of net book value or fair market value less cost to sell at the date management commits to a plan of disposal. 

48


  Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets resulting from business acquisitions.  Goodwill is tested for potential impairment on an annual basis, or more often if events or circumstances change that could cause goodwill to become impaired.  During fiscal year 2006, the sale of a fixed-wall furniture systems business resulted in a pre-tax goodwill impairment loss of $433, in thousands. 

A summary of the goodwill by segment is as follows:

June 30, June 30,
2007 2006
(Amounts in Thousands)

Furniture  $  1,733          $ 1,733         
Electronic Contract Assemblies 13,785          1,553         


  Consolidated $15,518          $ 3,286         


During fiscal year 2007, the Company acquired Reptron and recorded, in thousands, $12,069 of goodwill within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment.  See Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. Also in the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment, goodwill increased, in thousands, $163 during fiscal year 2007 resulting from $114 of purchase price adjustments and $49 due to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Purchased intangible assets for product rights to produce and sell certain products are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, and purchased intangible assets for capitalized customer relationships are amortized on estimated attrition rate of customers.  The Company has no intangible assets with indefinite useful lives which are not subject to amortization.  Intangible assets are reported as Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

A summary of purchased intangible assets subject to amortization by segment is as follows:

June 30, June 30,
2007 2006
(Amounts in Thousands)

Furniture:
  Cost  $ 1,160          $ 960         
  Accumulated Amortization (210)         (932)        


     Purchased Intangible Assets, net  $    950          $   28         


Electronic Contract Assemblies:
  Cost  $    937          $    --         
  Accumulated Amortization (65)         (--)        


     Purchased Intangible Assets, net $    872          $    --         


  Consolidated $ 1,822          $   28         



Purchased intangible assets in the Furniture segment consist of capitalized product rights to produce and sell certain products.  During fiscal year 2007, the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment acquired Reptron and recorded, in thousands, a $937 customer relationship intangible asset, which was the fair value as of the acquisition date, and no residual value was assumed.  See Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the acquisition.

During fiscal year 2007, 2006, and 2005, amortization expense related to purchased intangible assets was, in thousands, $94, $42, and $142, respectively. Amortization expense in future periods is expected to be, in thousands, $182, $335, $305, $283, and $262 in the five years ending June 30, 2012, and $455 thereafter.  When placed in service, the product rights intangible asset life is expected to be five years.  The amortization period for the customer relationship intangible asset is 16 years.

49


  Capitalized Software:  Internal-use software is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and is amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life ranging from two to seven years.  Software assets are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable over the remaining lives of the assets.  During the software application development stage, capitalized costs include external consulting costs, cost of software licenses, and internal payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with a software project.  Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enable the software to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing.  Software maintenance, training, data conversion, and business process reengineering costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. 

  Research and Development: The costs of research and development are expensed as incurred.  Research and development costs from continuing operations were approximately, in millions, $17, $15, and $18 in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

  Advertising:  Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.  Advertising costs from continuing operations, included in selling, general and administrative expenses were, in millions, $8.3, $5.6, and $5.3, in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. 

  Insurance and Self-insurance: The Company is self-insured up to certain limits for auto and general liability, workers' compensation, and certain employee health benefits including medical, short-term disability, and dental with the related liabilities included in the accompanying financial statements.  The Company's policy is to estimate reserves based upon a number of factors including known claims, estimated incurred but not reported claims, and actuarial analyses, which are based on historical information along with certain assumptions about future events.  Approximately 61% of the workforce is covered under self-insured medical and short-term disability plans.

The Company carries external medical and disability insurance coverage for the remainder of its eligible workforce not covered by self-insured plans.  The Company also carries stop-loss insurance coverage to mitigate severe losses under external and self-insured plans.  Insurance benefits are not provided to retired employees.

  Income Taxes: Unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries have been included in the consolidated financial statements without giving effect to the United States taxes that may be payable on distribution to the United States because it is not anticipated such earnings will be remitted to the United States.  Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability on unremitted earnings is not practicable.

  Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Concentration of Credit Risk: The Company has business and credit risks concentrated in the automotive, medical, and furniture industries.  Two customers, TRW Automotive, Inc. and Bayer AG, represented 14% and 16%, respectively, of consolidated accounts receivable at June 30, 2007.  TRW Automotive, Inc. and Bayer AG, each represented 19% of consolidated accounts receivable at June 30, 2006.  The Company currently does not foresee a credit risk associated with these receivables.  The Company holds a $2 million note receivable from the sale of a forest products hardwood lumber business and maintains a provision for potential credit losses.  The Company also has a $2 million note receivable with one of its contract customers, due in fiscal year 2009.  A provision for potential credit losses is not currently deemed necessary on this note.  The Company's off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to operating leases entered into in the normal course of business as described in Note 5 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 

  Non-operating Income and Expense: Non-operating income and expense include the impact of such items as foreign currency rate movements, derivatives, fair value adjustments on our Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (SERP) investments, recycling income, rent income, bank charges, and other miscellaneous non-operating income and expense items that are not directly related to our operations.

  Foreign Currency Translation: The Company uses the U.S. dollar and Euro predominately as its functional currencies.  Foreign currency assets and liabilities are remeasured into functional currencies at end-of-period exchange rates, except for nonmonetary assets and equity, which are remeasured at historical exchange rates.  Revenue and expenses are remeasured at the weighted average exchange rate during the year, except for expenses related to nonmonetary assets, which are remeasured at historical exchange rates.  Gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement are reported in the Other Income (Expense) category of the Consolidated Statements of Income.

For businesses whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, the translation of functional currency statements to U.S. dollar statements uses end-of-period exchange rates for assets and liabilities, weighted average exchanges rates for revenue and expenses, and historical rates for equity.  The resulting currency translation adjustment is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, as a component of Share Owners' Equity.

  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities:  Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in earnings or Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, depending on whether a derivative is designated and effective as part of a hedge transaction, and if it is, the type of hedge transaction.  Hedge accounting is utilized when a derivative is expected to be highly effective upon execution and continues to be highly effective over the duration of the hedge transaction.  Hedge accounting permits gains and losses on derivative instruments to be deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income and subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item or when the derivative is determined to be ineffective.  The Company's use of derivatives is generally limited to forward purchases of foreign currency to manage exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to the foreign exchange rate risks inherent in forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currency. 

50


  Reclassifications:  Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.  As a result of ceasing operations at the Company's Juarez, Mexico operation, the financial results associated with this operation were classified as discontinued operations.  Discontinued operations are discussed in further detail in Note 18 - Discontinued Operations of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

  Tooling:  The Company capitalizes the cost of tooling which it owns or which it has a noncancelable right to use during a supply arrangement.  As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, the Company had $3.0 million and $3.1 million of Company-owned tooling costs capitalized, and $1.8 million and $0.6 million of customer-owned tooling costs capitalized.  Company-owned tooling is reported in the Property and Equipment line of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and customer-owned tooling is reported in the Prepaid Expense and Other Current Assets line on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

  Stock-Based Compensation: As described in Note 8 - Stock Compensation Plans of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company maintains stock-based employee compensation plans which allow for the issuance of restricted stock, restricted share units, unrestricted share grants, incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, performance shares, performance units, and stock appreciation rights for grant to officers and other key employees of the Company, and to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees.  Prior to fiscal year 2006, the Company accounted for the plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations (APB 25). Accordingly, because all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant, no expense related to employee stock options was recognized. However, expense related to other share-based awards such as restricted share units and performance shares had been recognized in the income statement under APB 25.  Effective July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (FAS 123(R)).  Under the modified prospective method of adoption selected by the Company, compensation expense related to stock options is recognized in the income statement beginning in fiscal year 2006, but compensation cost in fiscal year 2005 related to stock options continues to be disclosed on a pro forma basis only.  Additionally, as of the effective date, the Company eliminated its balance of Deferred Stock-Based Compensation, which represented unrecognized compensation cost for restricted share unit awards, and reclassified it to Treasury Stock and Additional Paid-In Capital, in accordance with the modified prospective transition method.  Financial statements for periods prior to July 1, 2005 have not been restated.

FAS 123(R) requires that forfeitures be estimated over the vesting period of an award, rather than being recognized as a reduction of compensation expense when the forfeiture actually occurs.  FAS 123(R) also requires that liability awards be revalued to fair value, which, upon the adoption of FAS 123(R), had the effect of a reduction of a liability for outstanding stock appreciation rights.  The impact of the revaluation of stock appreciation rights and the use of the estimated forfeiture method for prior periods have been presented on the Consolidated Statements of Income as a Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle, as required by FAS 123(R).  The cumulative effect recorded in fiscal year 2006 totaled $0.3 million of income, net of taxes.  The earnings per share impact can be found in Note 15 - Earnings per Share of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company's stock-based compensation plans allow early vesting when an employee reaches retirement age and ceases continuous service.  Under FAS 123(R), awards granted after June 30, 2005 require acceleration of compensation expense through an employee's retirement age, whether or not the employee is expected to cease continuous service on that date.  For awards granted on or before June 30, 2005, the Company accelerates compensation expense only in cases where a retirement eligible employee is expected to cease continuous service prior to an award's vesting date.  If the new provisions of FAS 123(R) had been in effect for awards granted prior to June 30, 2005, compensation expense including the pro forma effect of stock options, net of tax, would have been $0.2 million lower, $0.1 million higher, and $0.4 million higher during fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

  New Accounting Standards:  In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus on Issue No. 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards (EITF 06-11).  EITF 06-11 requires companies to recognize the income tax benefit realized from dividends or dividend equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and paid to employees for nonvested equity-classified employee share-based payment awards as an increase to additional paid-in capital.  The realized income tax benefit recognized in additional paid-in capital should be included in the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb future tax deficiencies on share-based payment awards.  EITF 06-11 is effective as of the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2009.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of EITF 06-11 on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 expands the use of fair value accounting, but does not affect existing standards which require assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. Under FAS 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure financial instruments and certain other items, which may reduce the need to apply complex hedge accounting provisions in order to mitigate volatility in reported earnings. The fair value election is irrevocable and is generally made on an instrument-by-instrument basis, even if a company has similar instruments that it elects not to measure based on fair value. At the adoption date, unrealized gains and losses on existing items for which fair value has been elected are reported as a cumulative adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Subsequent to the adoption of FAS 159, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. FAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2009. The Company is determining whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of its eligible items and cannot currently estimate the impact, if any, which FAS 159 will have on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R) (FAS 158). In February 2007, the FASB issued FSP FAS 158-1, Conforming Amendments to the Illustrations in FASB Statements No. 87, No. 88, and No. 106 and to the Related Staff Implementation Guides (FSP FAS 158-1). FAS 158 requires employers to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position, recognize through comprehensive income changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur, and measure a plan's assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer's fiscal year. FSP FAS 158-1 updates the illustrations, questions and answers, and other guidance contained in FASB Statements No. 87, No. 88, and No. 106 and makes technical corrections to FAS 158. At the end of fiscal year 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FAS 158 and FSP FAS 158-1 related to recognition of plan assets, benefit liabilities, and comprehensive income.  The Company expects to adopt the provisions of these rules dealing with the measurement of plan assets and benefit obligations as of the year end balance sheet date when these provisions become effective at the end of the Company's fiscal year 2009.  The change in measurement date is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  These rules impact the accounting for the Company's unfunded noncontributory postemployment severance plans.  See Note 7 - Employee Benefit Plans of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108) which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement.  During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company elected early adoption of SAB 108.  The adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position AUG AIR-1, Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities (FSP AUG AIR-1).  The staff position eliminates the accrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major maintenance activities.  The adoption of the provisions in the staff position will be considered a change in accounting principle with retrospective application required as described in SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, if practical.  The staff position will be effective as of the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2008.  The Company currently uses the accrue-in-advance method primarily to reserve for future aircraft maintenance activities required by Federal Aviation Administration regulations.  The reversal of these accruals and adoption of an alternative method of expense recognition is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  FAS 157 is only applicable to existing accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, but does not require any new fair value measurements.  FAS 157 will be effective as of the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2009 and must be applied prospectively except for certain derivative instruments that would be adjusted through the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FAS 157 on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires financial statement recognition of the impact of a tax position if a position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.  Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, transition, and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions.  In May 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FIN No. 48-1, Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FSP FIN 48-1).  This FSP provides guidance on how a company should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits.  The provisions of FIN 48 and FSP FIN 48-1 will be effective as of the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2008.  The cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, which will be recorded in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, is estimated to increase the Company's liability for taxes, interest, and penalties by approximately $1.5 million to $2.5 million and reduce opening retained earnings by the same amount.  The Company continues to evaluate the estimated liability as tax positions are reviewed, including the tax positions related to the purchase price allocations of acquisitions.

53


In June 2006, the FASB ratified the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus on Issue No. 06-3, How Sales Taxes Collected From Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross Versus Net Presentation) (EITF 06-3).  EITF 06-3 requires disclosure of a company's accounting policy regarding presentation of taxes, including any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is imposed concurrently on a specific revenue-producing transaction between a seller and a customer.  If taxes included in gross revenues are significant, a company should disclose the amount of such taxes for each period for which an income statement is presented.  EITF 06-3 was effective for the Company beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007.  The Company presents sales net of applicable sales taxes.  The adoption of EITF 06-3 did not cause the Company to change its accounting policy for recording sales taxes and therefore did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (FAS 155). FAS 155 permits the Company to elect to measure any hybrid financial instrument at fair value (with changes in fair value recognized in earnings) if the hybrid instrument contains an embedded derivative that would otherwise be required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately under FAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. FAS 155 will be effective for all instruments acquired, issued, or subject to a remeasurement event occurring after the beginning of the Company's fiscal year 2008. The adoption of FAS 155 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (FAS 154), which requires the direct effects of voluntary accounting principle changes to be retrospectively applied to prior periods' financial statements.  FAS 154 does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, but would apply in the unusual instance that a pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions.  FAS 154 maintains existing guidance with respect to accounting estimate changes and corrections of errors.  FAS 154 was effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2007 and did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 2    Acquisitions

Fiscal Year 2007 Acquisition:

On February 15, 2007, the Company closed on the definitive merger agreement dated December 18, 2006 with Reptron, whereby the Reptron entity merged into Kimball Electronics Tampa, Inc. as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The agreement, as amended, had been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both the Company and Reptron, but was subject to Reptron shareholder approval, which was obtained on February 15, 2007. The operating results of this acquisition are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.

The acquisition is included in the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment and increased the Company's capabilities and expertise in support of the Company's long-term strategy to grow business in the medical electronics and high-end industrial sectors. Reptron's four manufacturing operations located in Tampa, Florida; Hibbing, Minnesota; Gaylord, Michigan; and Fremont, California have been renamed with Kimball Electronics identities.

The total amount of funds required to consummate the merger and to pay fees related to the merger was $50.9 million. The merger was funded with available cash and short-term investments. Merger funds were used to purchase all outstanding Reptron stock for $3.8 million, repay outstanding indebtedness and accrued interest of $17.6 million, tender senior secured notes for $22.4 million plus $4.8 million of senior secured notes and accrued interest remaining to be redeemed as of June 30, 2007, and pay direct acquisition costs of $2.3 million.  The Company subsequently redeemed the senior secured notes in August, 2007.  See Note 6 - Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the senior secured notes.

54


The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation to assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and goodwill. The acquisition resulted in $12.1 million of goodwill for the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment of the Company. Goodwill of $10.1 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company also identified and recorded intangible assets of $0.9 million related to customer relationships. See Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further disclosure related to goodwill and intangible assets. The table shown below reflects revisions made to the purchase price allocation since initially reported, but is still preliminary as the Company obtains additional information for the valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to valuation of equipment acquired and valuation of income tax liabilities related to the Company's adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, in fiscal year 2008, which requires retroactive restatement to reflect only tax positions that are more like than not of being sustained on audit.

Significant purchase price allocation adjustments made since initially reported include deferred tax adjustments to reflect book versus tax basis differences related to liabilities assumed in the acquisition and a restructuring accrual related to the approval of a restructuring plan to exit the Gaylord, Michigan facility.  With the acquisition, the Company recognized it would have excess capacity in North America.  Management developed a plan as of the acquisition date to consolidate capacity within the acquired facilities.  Based on a review of future growth potential in various geographies and input from existing customers regarding future capacity needs, it was determined that the Gaylord facility's automotive electronics business would transfer to other electronics manufacturing sites located in Jasper, Indiana and Nanjing, China.  The Company expects total pre-tax restructuring to be approximately $1.1 million, including $1.0 million related to employee severance and transition costs which have been recognized as a purchase price allocation adjustment.  See Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details of the restructuring plan.

Fiscal Year 2006 Acquisitions:

On April 3, 2006, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement for the acquisition of the Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operation of Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited ("BDML") and its parent company, Bayer HealthCare LLC, a member of the worldwide group of companies headed by Bayer AG. The closing of the purchase was effective April 3, 2006. The operating results of this acquisition are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.

The acquisition is included in the Company's Electronic Contract Assemblies segment and better positions the Company to capitalize on growth opportunities in the medical market within this segment. The BDML workforce and their capabilities have added to the Company's package of value that is offered to its medical customers and is a step in the Company's strategy to diversify its markets.

The Company paid BDML a sum of $31.5 million. Direct costs of the acquisition totaled $0.5 million.

The following table summarizes the assets acquired for the BDML acquisition. The building and land were not part of the assets acquired. The Company is leasing a portion of the facility from a third party. The table shown below reflects revisions made to the purchase price during fiscal year 2007, including liabilities related to involuntary terminations.  The purchase price adjustment is now final.

(Amounts in thousands)

BDML Acquisition Purchase Price Allocation

 
Inventory $28,829
Property and equipment 2,035
Software 653
Deferred Tax Asset 826
Other 63
Goodwill 1,342
 
   Total assets acquired $33,748
 
Current liabilities 1,760
 
   Net assets acquired $31,988
 


For tax purposes, the amount of goodwill recognized was, in thousands, $96 and is fully deductible. The difference between book and tax goodwill, net of deferred taxes, is due to the liabilities for involuntary employee terminations recognized for book purposes that are not part of the purchase price allocation for tax purposes. The entire amount of goodwill was allocated to the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment of the Company.

On May 5, 2006, the Company acquired a printed circuit board assembly operation in Longford, Ireland from Magna Donnelly Electronics Longford Limited.  Assets acquired were $3.4 million, liabilities assumed were $3.5 million, and the Company received $0.1 million in the acquisition.  Direct costs of the acquisition were $0.3 million.  The acquisition resulted in $0.3 million of goodwill for the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment of the Company.  There were no material purchased intangible assets included in the acquisition.  The operating results of this acquisition are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.  The purchase price allocation is final.

Note 3    Inventories

Inventories are valued using the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market value for approximately 18% and 24% of consolidated inventories in fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively, including approximately 86% and 83% of the Furniture segment inventories in fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment inventories and the remaining inventories in the Furniture segment are valued using the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market value.

Had the FIFO method been used for all inventories, income from continuing operations would have been $0.1 million higher in fiscal year 2007, $0.7 million lower in fiscal year 2006, and $1.1 million higher in fiscal year 2005, and net income, which includes the effect of discontinued operations, would have been $0.1 million higher in fiscal year 2007, $2.9 million lower in fiscal year 2006, and $0.4 million lower in fiscal year 2005.  Additionally, inventories would have been, in millions, $16.4 and $16.3 higher at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, if the FIFO method had been used.  Certain inventory quantity reductions caused liquidations of LIFO inventory values, which increased income from continuing operations by $1.1 million in fiscal year 2007, $1.3 million in fiscal year 2006, and an immaterial amount in fiscal year 2005.  LIFO liquidations increased net income, which includes the effect of discontinued operations, by $1.1 million in fiscal year 2007, $3.6 million in fiscal year 2006, and $2.9 million in fiscal year 2005.

Inventory components at June 30 are as follows:

Note 4    Property and Equipment

Major classes of property and equipment at June 30 consist of the following:

 

2007      

2006      



(Amounts in Thousands)    
Land $      9,865  $      5,005 
Buildings and improvements 165,483  151,421

The useful lives used in computing depreciation are based on the Company's estimate of the service life of the classes of property, as follows:

  Years

Buildings and improvements 5 to 50
Machinery and equipment 2 to 20
Leasehold improvements Lesser of Useful Life or Term of Lease

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment for continuing operations, including asset write-downs associated with the Company's restructuring plans, totaled, in millions, $31.7 for fiscal year 2007, $28.5 for fiscal year 2006, and $29.4 for fiscal year 2005.

At June 30, 2007, in thousands, assets totaling $3,032 were classified as held for sale, including $2,691 for a facility related to an exited operation within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment and $341 for manufacturing equipment related to exited operations within the Furniture segment.  The exited Electronic Contract Assemblies facility is reported as unallocated corporate assets for segment reporting purposes.  The Furniture segment recognized a pre-tax loss in fiscal year 2007, in thousands, of $378 for impairment write-downs on the held-for-sale assets. The Company expects to sell these assets during the next 12 months.  At June 30, 2006, the Company had, in thousands, $353 of land held as unallocated corporate assets classified as held for sale.

Note 5    Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Leases:

Operating leases for continuing operations for certain office, showroom, manufacturing facilities, land, and equipment, which expire from fiscal year 2008 to 2056, contain provisions under which minimum annual lease payments are, in millions, $5.4, $4.8, $2.9, $2.6, and $2.3 for the five years ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and aggregate $5.8 million from fiscal year 2013 to the expiration of the leases in fiscal year 2056.  The Company is obligated under certain real estate leases to maintain the properties and pay real estate taxes.  Certain of these leases include renewal options and escalation clauses.  Total rental expenses for continuing operations amounted to, in millions, $6.5, $4.7, and $5.2 in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company had, in millions, $0.8 and $1.2, respectively, of capitalized leases for equipment.  Future minimum annual lease payments excluding imputed interest are, in millions, $0.4 for each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2008 and 2009, with no payments thereafter.

Guarantees:

As of June 30, 2007, the Company had no guarantees issued which were contingent on the future performance of another entity.  As of June 30, 2006, the Company had guarantees which consisted of customer lease financing with recourse whereby the Company could have become liable to a third-party leasing company if the customer defaulted on their lease, guarantees of third-party dealer facility leases and bank loans whereby the Company could have become liable if the dealer defaulted on a lease or bank loan, and guarantees associated with subleases whereby the Company could have been responsible for lease commitments if the sublessee defaulted.  At the inception of a guarantee, the Company recognizes a liability for obligations the Company may incur if specified triggering events or conditions occur.  The liability is recorded at fair value which is estimated based on various factors including risk that the Company may have to perform under a guarantee and ability to recover against payments made on a guarantee.  The maximum potential liability and carrying amount recorded for these guarantees was immaterial to the Company's financial position.

Standby letters of credit are issued to third-party suppliers, lessors, and insurance and financial institutions and can only be drawn upon in the event of the Company's failure to pay its obligations to the beneficiary.  As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company had a maximum financial exposure from unused standby letters of credit totaling $14.5 million and $13.5 million, respectively.  The Company is not aware of circumstances that would require it to perform under any of these arrangements and believes that the resolution of any claims that might arise in the future, either individually or in the aggregate, would not materially affect the Company's financial statements.  Accordingly, no liability has been recorded as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 with respect to the standby letters of credit.  The Company also enters into commercial letters of credit to facilitate payments to vendors and from customers.

59


Product Warranties:

The Company estimates product warranty liability at the time of sale based on historical repair cost trends in conjunction with the length of the warranty offered.  Management refines the warranty liability in cases where specific warranty issues become known.

Changes in the product warranty accrual during fiscal years 2007 and 2006 were as follows:

(Amounts in Thousands) 2007 2006


Product Warranty Liability at the beginning of the year $ 2,127      $ 3,653   
Accrual for warranties issued 961      789   
Accruals (reductions) related to pre-existing warranties (including changes in estimates) (47)     (749)  
Settlements made (in cash or in kind) (894)     (1,566)  


Product Warranty Liability at the end of the year $ 2,147      $ 2,127   
 
 

Note 6    Long-Term Debt and Credit Facility

Long-term debt consists of long-term notes payable, capitalized leases, and senior secured notes.  Aggregate maturities of long-term debt for the next five years are, in thousands, $5,515, $412, $60, $61, and $12, respectively, and aggregate $287 thereafter.  Interest rates range from 3.455% to 9.25%.  Based upon borrowing rates currently available to the Company, the fair value of the Company's debt approximates the carrying value.

At June 30, 2007, the Company's outstanding balance in senior secured notes was $4.5 million.  These notes represent the remaining portion of notes originally held by Reptron which was not tendered as of the date of the acquisition.  The notes were valued in the preliminary purchase price allocation at their stated 101% redemption price, which approximates their fair value.  As of the acquisition date, the indenture agreement related to the remaining notes was amended to eliminate or modify substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the indenture.  The notes are irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed by the acquired Reptron legal entity and are secured by the assets of this legal entity.  The Reptron legal entity was in compliance with all terms and covenants of the notes, as amended, as of June 30, 2007.  The maturity date of the notes is February 2009; however, the Company redeemed the notes in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.  The notes were redeemed at the stated redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount together with interest accrued at a fixed 8% annual interest rate through the redemption date.  As of June 30, 2007, the notes were classified as Current Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  See Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on the Reptron acquisition.   

The Company maintains a five year revolving credit facility which expires in May 2009 and provides for up to $75 million in borrowings, with an option to increase the amount available for borrowing to $125 million at the Company's request, subject to participating banks' consent.  The Company uses this facility for acquisitions and general corporate purposes.  A commitment fee is payable on the unused portion of the credit facility which was immaterial to the Company's operating results for fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005.  Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at a floating rate based, at the Company's option, upon a London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable percentage or the greater of the federal funds rate plus an applicable percentage and the prime rate.  The Company is in compliance with debt covenants requiring it to maintain certain debt-to-total capitalization, interest coverage ratio, minimum net worth, and other terms and conditions. 

The Company also maintains a separate foreign credit facility which is backed by the $75 million revolving credit facility.  The separate foreign credit facility is reviewed annually for renewal and will expire in May 2008 if not renewed at that time.  The interest rate applicable to borrowings in US dollars under the separate foreign credit facility is charged at 0.75% per annum over the Singapore Interbank Money Market Offered Rate (SIBOR).  The interest rate on borrowings in Thai Baht under the separate foreign credit facility is charged at the prevailing market rate. 

60


At June 30, 2007, the Company had $18.9 million of short-term borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility.  The outstanding balance consists of a Euro currency borrowing which provides a natural currency hedge against Euro denominated intercompany notes between the US parent and its Euro functional currency subsidiaries.  The Company issued an additional $14.4 million in letters of credit against the revolving credit facility, which reduces total availability to borrow to $41.7 million at June 30, 2007.  At June 30, 2006, the Company had $21.0 million of short-term borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $2.1 million short-term borrowings outstanding under a separate foreign facility which was backed by the $75 million revolving credit facility.

In April 2007, the Company entered into a new credit facility for its electronics operation in Wales, UK.  The facility is reviewed annually for renewal and will expire in March 2008 if not renewed at that time.  The new credit facility provides a 2 million Sterling (approximately $4 million US dollars at current exchange rates) facility which is available to cover bank overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts may be deemed necessary to satisfy short-term cash needs rather than funding from intercompany sources.  As collateral subject to lien, this facility requires 3 million Euro (approximately $4 million US dollars at current exchange rates) to be held as restricted cash which is classified as other long-term assets on the Company's balance sheet.  The restricted cash is held in an account which is interest bearing payable to the Company.  The interest rate applicable to the Sterling overdraft facility is charged at 1% per annum over the Bank of England's Sterling Base Rate.  At June 30, 2007, the Company had $3.0 million of Sterling-denominated short-term borrowings outstanding under the overdraft facility.

As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the weighted average interest rates on the Company's short-term borrowings outstanding under the credit facilities were 4.93% and 3.86%, respectively.  Cash payments for interest on borrowings were, in thousands, $889, $544, and $173, in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

Note 7    Employee Benefit Plans

Retirement Plans:

The Company has a trusteed defined contribution retirement plan in effect for substantially all domestic employees meeting the eligibility requirements. The plan includes a 401(k) feature, thereby permitting participants to make additional voluntary contributions on a pre-tax basis.  Payments by the Company to the trusteed plan have a five year vesting schedule and are held for the sole benefit of participants. The Company also maintains a trusteed defined contribution retirement plan for Reptron employees.

The Company maintains a supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) for executive employees which enable them to defer cash compensation on a pre-tax basis in excess of IRS limitations.  The SERP is structured as a rabbi trust and therefore assets in the SERP portfolio are subject to creditor claims in the event of bankruptcy.

Company contributions for domestic employees are based on a percent of net income with certain minimum and maximum limits as determined by the Board of Directors.  Total expense related to employer contributions to the retirement plans for fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005 was, in millions, $5.8, $5.8, and $1.3, respectively.

Employees of certain foreign subsidiaries are covered by local pension or retirement plans.  Total expense related to employer contributions to these foreign plans for 2007, 2006, and 2005 was, in millions, $0.9, $0.2, and $0.0, respectively.

61


Severance Plans:

The Company maintains severance plans for substantially all domestic employees.  The plans provide severance benefits to eligible employees meeting the plans' qualifications, primarily involuntary termination without cause. There are no statutory requirements for the Company to contribute to the plans, nor do employees contribute to the plans.  The plans hold no assets.  Benefits are paid using available cash on hand when eligible employees meet plan qualifications for payment.  Benefits are based upon an employee's years of service and accumulate up to certain limits specified in the plans, and include both salary and medical benefits. 

The Company applied the guidance of  SFAS 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits, and valued benefit obligations using actuarial techniques and management judgment.  As of June 30, 2007, the Company adopted SFAS 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.  The adoption of SFAS 158 did not have a material impact on the accounting for severance obligations because the plans have no requirement to fund plan assets; thus no transition disclosures are required.  The following disclosures provide information as of the June 30, 2007 valuation of the severance obligations:

Note 8    Stock Compensation Plans

On August 19, 2003, the Board of Directors adopted the 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "2003 Plan"), which was approved by the Company's Share Owners on October 21, 2003.  Under the 2003 Plan, 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock were reserved for restricted stock, restricted share units, unrestricted share grants, incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, performance shares, performance units, and stock appreciation rights for grant to officers and other key employees of the Company and to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees.  The 2003 Plan is a 10 year plan.  The Company also has stock options outstanding under two former stock incentive plans, which are described below.  The pre-tax compensation cost that was charged against income from continuing operations for all of the plans was $4.9 million and $3.8 million in fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The total income tax benefit from continuing operations for stock compensation arrangements was $1.9 million and $1.5 million in fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively.  These compensation expense and tax benefit amounts exclude the impact of the Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle recorded in fiscal year 2006, as described in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  The Company generally uses treasury shares for fulfillment of option exercises, issuance of performance shares, and conversion of restricted share units.

Performance Shares:

The Company awards performance shares to officers and other key employees under the 2003 Plan.  Under these awards, a number of shares will be granted to each participant based upon the attainment of the applicable bonus percentage calculated under the Company's profit sharing incentive bonus plan as applied to a total potential share award made and approved by the Compensation and Governance Committee. Performance shares are vested when issued shortly after the end of the fiscal year in which the performance measurement period is complete and are issued as Class A and Class B common shares.  Certain outstanding performance shares are applicable to performance measurement periods in future fiscal years and will be measured at fair value when the performance targets are established in future fiscal years.  The contractual life of performance shares ranges from one to five years.  If a participant is not employed by the Company on the date of issuance, the performance share award is forfeited, except in the case of death, retirement at age 62 or older, total permanent disability, or certain other circumstances described in the Company's employment policy.  Additionally, to the extent performance conditions are not fully attained, performance shares are forfeited. 

A summary of performance share activity under the 2003 Plan during fiscal year 2007 is presented below:

  Number
of Shares
Weighted Average
Grant Date
Fair Value



Performance shares outstanding at July 1, 2006 467,354  $12.24 
Granted 459,217    17.42 
Vested (150,651)   12.25 
Forfeited (91,923)   14.02 

Performance shares outstanding at June 30, 2007 683,997  $17.43 

63


As of June 30, 2007, there was approximately $6.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to performance shares, based on the latest estimated attainment of performance goals.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.6 years.  The fair value of performance shares is based on the stock price at the date of award, reduced by the present value of dividends normally paid over the vesting period which are not payable on outstanding performance share awards.  The weighted average grant date fair value was $17.42 and $12.24 for performance share awards granted in fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively.  During fiscal year 2007, 150,651 performance shares vested at a fair value of $1.8 million.  No performance shares vested during fiscal year 2006.  The number of shares presented in the above table, the amounts of unrecognized compensation, and the weighted average period include performance shares awarded that are applicable to future performance measurement periods and will be measured at fair value when the performance targets are established in future fiscal years.

Restricted Share Units:

Nonvested Restricted Share Units (RSU) awarded to officers and other key employees are currently outstanding under the 2003 Plan. RSUs vest five years after the date of award.  Upon vesting, the outstanding number of RSUs and the value of dividends accumulated over the vesting period are converted to shares of Class A and Class B common stock.  If the employment of a holder of an RSU terminates before the RSU has vested for any reason other than death, retirement at age 62 or older, total permanent disability, or certain other circumstances described in the Company's employment policy, the RSU will be forfeited.

A summary of RSU activity under the 2003 Plan during fiscal year 2007 is presented below:

Restricted Share Units outstanding at June 30, 2007 500,100  $15.75 


As of June 30, 2007, there was approximately $3.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested RSU compensation arrangements awarded under the 2003 Plan.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.  The fair value of RSU awards is based on the stock price at the date of award.  The total fair value of RSU awards vested during fiscal year 2007 and 2006 was, in thousands, $24 and $31, respectively.

Unrestricted Share Grants:

Under the 2003 Plan, unrestricted shares may be granted to participants as consideration for service to the Company.  Unrestricted share grants do not have vesting periods, holding periods, restrictions on sale or other restrictions.  The fair value of unrestricted shares is based on the stock price at the date of the award.  During fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively, the Company granted a total of 7,668 and 18,501 unrestricted shares of Class B common stock at an average grant date fair value of $24.53 and $11.22, for a total fair value of $0.2 million and $0.2 million.  These shares were issued to members of the Board of Directors as compensation for director's fees, as a result of directors' elections to receive unrestricted shares in lieu of cash payment.

64


Stock Options:

The Company has stock options outstanding under two former stock incentive plans.  The 1996 Stock Incentive Program, which was approved by the Company's Share Owners on October 22, 1996, allowed the issuance of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, and performance share awards to officers and other key employees of the Company and to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees.  The 1996 Stock Incentive Program will continue to have options outstanding through fiscal year 2013.  The 1996 Directors' Stock Compensation and Option Plan, available to all members of the Board of Directors, was approved by the Company's Share Owners on October 22, 1996.  Under the terms of that plan, Directors electing to receive all, or a portion, of their fees in the form of Company stock were also granted a number of stock options equal to 50% of the number of shares received for compensation of fees. The Directors' Stock Compensation and Option Plan will continue to have options outstanding through fiscal year 2009.  No shares remain available for new grants under the Company's prior stock option plans.

There were no stock option grants awarded during fiscal years 2007 and 2006.   For outstanding awards, the fair value at the date of the grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Options granted under the plans generally are exercisable from six months to five years after the date of grant and expire five to ten years after the date of grant.  Stock options are forfeited when employment terminates, except in the case of retirement at age 62 or older, death, permanent disability, or certain other circumstances described in the Company's employment policy.

The Company also has an immaterial number of stock appreciation rights outstanding under the former 1996 Stock Incentive Program.  As valued by the Black-Scholes valuation model, these awards had no value as of June 30, 2007 and 2006.

A summary of stock option activity under the two former plans during fiscal year 2007 is presented below:

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during fiscal year 2007 and 2006 was $5.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively.  The value of existing shares held by employees was used to exercise stock options.  The actual tax benefit realized for the tax deductions from option exercises totaled $1.9 million and $0.1 million for fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Note 9    Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.  Income tax benefits net of valuation allowance associated with net operating losses of, in thousands, $2,092 expire from fiscal year 2012 to 2025.  Income tax benefits net of valuation allowance associated with net tax credit carryforwards of, in thousands, $91, expire from fiscal year 2012 to 2020.  A valuation reserve was provided as of June 30, 2007 for deferred tax assets relating to certain foreign and state net operating losses of, in thousands, $1,215, certain state tax credit carryforwards of, in thousands, $3,139, and, in thousands, $66 related to other deferred tax assets that the Company currently believes are more likely than not to remain unrealized in the future.

Note 10    Common Stock

On a fiscal year basis, shares of Class B Common Stock are entitled to an additional $0.02 per share dividend more than the dividends paid on Class A Common Stock, provided that dividends are paid on the Company's Class A Common Stock.  The owners of both Class A and Class B Common Stock are entitled to share pro-rata, irrespective of class, in the distribution of the Company's available assets upon dissolution.

Owners of Class B Common Stock are entitled to elect, as a class, one member of the Company's Board of Directors.  In addition, owners of Class B Common Stock are entitled to full voting powers, as a class, with respect to any consolidation, merger, sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's fixed assets, or dissolution of the Company.  Otherwise, except as provided by statute with respect to certain amendments to the Articles of Incorporation, the owners of Class B Common Stock have no voting rights, and the entire voting power is vested in the Class A Common Stock, which has one vote per share.  The Habig families own directly or share voting power in excess of 50% of the Class A Common Stock of Kimball International, Inc.  The owner of a share of Class A Common Stock may, at their option, convert such share into one share of Class B Common Stock at any time.

If any dividends are not paid on shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock for a period of thirty-six consecutive months, or if at any time the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding is less than 15% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of both Class A and Class B Common Stock, then all shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically have the same rights and privileges as the Class A Common Stock, with full and equal voting rights and with equal rights to receive dividends as and if declared by the Board of Directors.

Note 11    Derivative Instruments

The Company operates internationally and is therefore exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of its business. As part of its risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments to hedge certain foreign currency exposures. Before acquiring a derivative instrument to hedge a specific risk, potential natural hedges are evaluated. Derivative instruments are only utilized to manage underlying exposures that arise from the Company's business operations and are not used for speculative purposes. Factors considered in the decision to hedge an underlying market exposure include the materiality of the risk, the volatility of the market, the duration of the hedge, the degree to which the underlying exposure is committed to, and the availability, effectiveness, and cost of derivative instruments.

The Company uses forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in forecasted transactions denominated in a foreign currency. The maximum length of time the Company had hedged its exposure to the variability in future cash flows was 12 months as of both June 30, 2007 and 2006. For derivative instruments that meet the criteria of SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended and interpreted, the effective portions of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument are initially recorded net of related tax effect in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, a component of Share Owners' Equity, and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in other income or expense immediately.

The fair value of derivative financial instruments recorded on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 was, in thousands, $835 and $77, recorded in other current assets, and $430 and $881 recorded in other current liabilities, respectively. Derivative gains (losses), on a pre-tax basis, were, in thousands, $1,287, ($405), and $3,022, in fiscal year 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. Included in the derivative gain for fiscal year 2007 is $299 pre-tax income, in thousands, related to Thailand hedges which were determined to be ineffective as a result of government currency exchange rate controls.  Ineffectiveness was not material during fiscal year 2006 and 2005.  Derivative gains and losses are reported in the Non-Operating Income line of the Consolidated Statements of Income and the Net Income line of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company estimates that, in thousands, $229 of pre-tax derivative gains deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income will be reclassified into earnings, along with the earnings effects of related forecasted transactions, within the next fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.

Note 12    Short-Term Investments

The Company's short-term investment portfolio consists of available-for-sale securities, primarily government and municipal obligations and auction rate securities.  These securities are reported at fair value, which is estimated based upon the quoted market values of those, or similar instruments.  Carrying costs reflect the original purchase price, with discounts and premiums amortized over the life of the security.  Government and municipal obligations mature within a five year period.  Auction rate securities have interest rate resets through a modified Dutch auction, at predetermined short-term intervals which provides the Company the option to liquidate its holdings or roll its investments over to the next reset period.

(Amounts in Thousands)

Carrying cost $67,699     $107,294    
Unrealized holding gains 21     --    
Unrealized holding losses (321)    (427)   
Other-than-temporary impairment (49)    (21)   
 

Fair Value $67,350     $106,846    
 


As of June 30, 2007, 63 investments were in an unrealized loss position and the unrealized loss approximated 0.7% of their fair value.  The duration of the unrealized loss positions ranges from one to 39 months.  The Company has the ability to hold these investments and expects unrealized losses to be recoverable, and therefore, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.  In reaching the conclusion that investments are not impaired, the Company considered the severity of loss, the credit quality of the instrument in relation to its yield, whether the external fund manager has discretion to trade at a loss, and the fact that the value of the debt investments is driven by interest rate fluctuations.

The fair value and unrealized loss for investments which have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months total, in thousands, $42,844 and ($256), respectively, as of June 30, 2007.  The fair value and unrealized loss for investments which have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer total, in thousands, $5,888 and ($65), respectively, as of June 30, 2007.  The fair value and unrealized loss for investments which were in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months total, in thousands, $11,962 and ($114), respectively, as of June 30, 2006.  The fair value and unrealized loss for investments which were in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer total, in thousands, $15,705 and ($313), respectively, as of June 30, 2006.

Proceeds from sales of available-for-sale securities were, in thousands, $13,403, $13,285, and $19,384 for the years ended June 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.  Gross realized gains and (losses) on the sale of available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2007 were, in thousands, $17 and ($72), respectively, compared to gross realized gains and (losses) of, in thousands, $2 and ($91), respectively, at June 30, 2006 and $139 and ($41), respectively, at June 30, 2005.  The cost was determined on each individual security in computing the realized gains and losses.  Realized gains and losses are reported in the Other Income (Expense) category of the Consolidated Statements of Income.

69


The Company maintains a self-directed supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) for executive employees.  The SERP is structured as a rabbi trust and therefore assets in the SERP portfolio are subject to creditor claims in the event of bankruptcy.  The Company recognizes SERP investment assets on the balance sheet at current fair value.  A SERP liability of the same amount is recorded on the balance sheet representing the Company's obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants.  The SERP investment assets are classified as trading, and accordingly, realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in income.  Adjustments made to revalue the SERP liability are also recognized in income and exactly offset valuation adjustments on SERP investment assets.  The change in net unrealized holding gains and losses at June 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005 was, in thousands, $2,939, $1,720, and $1,250, respectively.  SERP asset and liability balances were as follows:

SERP investment - current asset $    2,888     $    2,429

Note 14   Segment and Geographic Area Information

Management organizes the Company into segments based upon differences in products and services offered in each segment.  The segments and their principal products and services are as follows:  The Furniture segment provides furniture for the office and hospitality industries, sold under the Company's family of brand names.  The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment provides engineering and manufacturing services which utilize common production and support capabilities to a variety of industries globally.  The Company's focus is on electronic assemblies that have high durability requirements and are sold on a contract basis and produced to customers' specifications.  The Company currently sells primarily to customers in the automotive, industrial controls, medical, and public safety industries. 

70


Included in the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment are sales to two major customers.  Sales to TRW Automotive, Inc., totaled in millions, $96.6, $135.6, and $129.7 in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively, representing 8%, 12%, and 13% of consolidated net sales, respectively, for such periods.  Sales to Bayer AG entities under common control, including Bayer Diagnostics Manufacturing Limited, totaled, in millions, $198.9, $66.4, and $16.7 in fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively, representing 15%, 6%, and 2% of consolidated net sales, respectively, for such periods.  The increase in sales to Bayer AG in fiscal year 2006 was related to the Company's acquisition of Bayer's Bridgend, Wales, UK manufacturing operation in the fourth quarter of that fiscal year.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements with additional explanation of segment allocations as follows.  Corporate assets and operating costs are allocated to the segments based on the extent to which each segment uses a centralized function, where practicable.  However, certain common costs have been allocated among segments less precisely than would be required for stand alone financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Unallocated corporate assets include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and other assets not allocated to segments.  Unallocated corporate income from continuing operations consists of income not allocated to segments for purposes of evaluating segment performance and includes income from corporate investments and other non-operational items.  Sales between the Furniture segment and Electronic Contract Assemblies segment are not material.

The Company evaluates segment performance based upon several financial measures, although the two most common include economic profit, which incorporates a segment's cost of capital when evaluating financial performance, and income from continuing operations.  Income from continuing operations is reported for each segment as it is the measure most consistent with the measurement principles used in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company aggregates multiple operating segments into each reportable segment.  The aggregated operating segments have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria required by SFAS 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.

Income statement amounts presented are from continuing operations.

Note 15   Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are computed using the two-class common stock method due to the dividend preference of Class B Common Stock.  Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the assumed issuance of common shares and related payment of assumed dividends for all potentially dilutive securities.  Earnings per share of Class A and Class B Common Stock are as follows:

Note 17   Restructuring Expense

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company approved a restructuring plan within the Electronics Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Gaylord, Michigan.  This facility was one of four facilities acquired in the recent acquisition of Reptron, as described in Note 2 - Acquisitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  With the acquisition, the Company recognized it would have excess capacity in North America.  Management developed a plan as of the acquisition date to consolidate capacity within the acquired facilities.  Based on a review of future growth potential in various geographies and input from existing customers regarding future capacity needs, it was determined that the Gaylord facility's automotive electronics business would transfer to other electronics manufacturing sites located in Jasper, Indiana and Nanjing, China.  The Gaylord facility and some of the equipment will be sold.  The Company expects to cease production during the second quarter of fiscal year 2008 and complete all restructuring activities by the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008.  The Company expects total pre-tax restructuring to be approximately $1.1 million, including $1.0 million related to employee severance and transition costs which have been recognized as a purchase price allocation adjustment in goodwill, not impacting earnings, and $0.1 million related to inventory transfers and post-closing activities which will impact earnings as the costs are incurred.

As a result of excess capacity in North America, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2006 the Company approved a restructuring plan within the Electronic Contract Assemblies segment to exit a manufacturing facility located in Northern Indiana.  As part of this restructuring plan, the production for select programs was transferred to other locations within this segment.  Operations at this facility ceased in the Company's first quarter of fiscal year 2007.  The facility is classified as held for sale.  The facility and ongoing maintenance expenses related to the facility are reported as unallocated corporate assets and expenses for segment reporting purposes.  The Company expects minimal future charges and estimates total pre-tax restructuring charges related to this plan, when complete, to be approximately $1.2 million, consisting of $0.7 million of employee transition costs, acceleration of software amortization of $0.4 million, acceleration of plant, property, and equipment depreciation of $0.1 million, and other restructuring costs of $0.3 million partially offset by $0.3 million for gains on the sale of equipment net of other asset impairment.

76


As part of the Company's plan to sharpen focus and simplify business processes within the Furniture segment, the Company announced during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, a restructuring plan which included consolidation of administrative, marketing, and business development functions to better serve the segment's primary markets. To simplify and standardize business processes, a portion of the Company's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software is being redesigned and is expected to be complete during the next year.  Accelerated amortization costs will continue to be recognized during this period. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, capitalized software costs related to the ERP software that was not yet placed in service were abandoned and recognized as impaired. Restructuring charges related to ERP software impairment, accelerated amortization, employee severance, and other consolidation costs are recorded on the Restructuring Expense line item of the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. The plan also included the sale of a forest products hardwood lumber business and a business unit which produced fixed-wall furniture systems. Losses on the sale of these business units are presented on the Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax line item on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 18 - Discontinued Operations of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of these discontinued operations. The Company estimates total pre-tax charges under the plan, when complete, to be approximately $17.0 million, including the pre-tax loss on the sale of business operations of $10.3 million which was recorded as discontinued operations, and restructuring charges for plant, property, and equipment impairment of $0.4 million, software impairment of $3.5 million, acceleration of software amortization of $2.2 million, employee severance costs of $0.5 million, and other restructuring costs of $0.1 million.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, the Company announced incremental cost scaling actions to more closely align its operating capacities and capabilities with reduced demand levels related to the prolonged nature of the global economic slowdown in many of the Company's markets and the resulting continuation of underutilized manufacturing capacity within both of the Company's segments.  Overall scaling actions included the consolidation of capabilities and operations, selling and/or exiting redundant facilities, aligning personnel costs, and adjusting assets associated with scaling actions to their current fair values.  Activities outlined in the restructuring plan began in the second quarter of fiscal year 2003 and were completed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. 

The Company accounts for restructuring cost in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.  The Company utilizes available market prices and management estimates to determine the fair value of impaired fixed assets.  Restructuring charges are included in the Restructuring Expense line item on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income.

Fiscal Year 2007 Restructuring Charges:

There were no restructuring charges recognized in earnings in fiscal year 2007 regarding the restructuring plan announced during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 to exit a manufacturing facility located in Gaylord, Michigan.

As a result of the fiscal year 2006 restructuring plan, the Company recognized consolidated pre-tax restructuring expense of $1.5 million in fiscal year 2007. Within the Furniture segment, the Company recognized pre-tax restructuring expense of $1.3 million in fiscal year 2007, which included restructuring charges of $0.8 million for accelerated software amortization, $0.4 million for plant, property, and equipment impairment, and $0.1 million for employee transition and other costs. The Electronic Contract Assemblies segment recognized pre-tax restructuring expense of $0.1 million in fiscal year 2007 which included $0.3 million for employee transition costs and $0.1 million for accelerated software amortization which were partially offset by $0.3 million of gains on the sale of equipment net of other asset impairment.

Note 18    Discontinued Operations

Fiscal Year 2007 Discontinued Operations:

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, the Company approved a plan to exit the production of wood rear projection television (PTV) cabinets and stands within the Furniture segment, which affected the Company's Juarez, Mexico operation. For some time, the market demand for wood rear PTV cabinets and stands had been declining due to the market shift to plasma and LCD large-screen televisions, and the Company responded to this trend. In August 2004, the Company sold the building in Juarez and subsequently leased back a much smaller manufacturing footprint in the same facility to reduce excess capacity, and then during fiscal year 2006, the Company further consolidated its two Mexican wood rear PTV cabinet and stand operations into the one smaller Juarez facility. With the recent exit, the Company will no longer have continuing involvement with the production of PTV cabinets and stands.  Production at the Juarez facility ceased during the second quarter of fiscal year 2007, and all inventory has been sold.  Miscellaneous wrap-up activities including disposition of remaining equipment were complete as of June 30, 2007.  The lease on the building expires in August 2009, and the Company is attempting to sub-lease its portion of the facility. Beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the year-to-date financial results associated with the Mexican operations in the Furniture segment were classified as discontinued operations, and all prior periods were restated.

The Company currently estimates that the pre-tax charges related to exit activities at the Juarez facility will be approximately $5.6 million, consisting of approximately $1.6 million of property and equipment impairment and losses on sales, $1.1 million of transition and other employee costs, $2.2 million of lease exit costs, and $0.7 million of other exit costs. As a result of this exit plan, the Company recognized within the Furniture segment pre-tax expenses of $4.4 million in fiscal year 2007, which included charges of $1.6 million for property and equipment impairment and losses on sales, charges of $1.1 million for transition and other employee costs, charges of $1.0 million for lease exit costs, and $0.7 million of other exit costs. The Company utilized available market prices and management estimates to determine the fair value of impaired fixed assets. At June 30, 2006, liabilities related to an exit plan to consolidate Mexican furniture and cabinets operations into one facility located at Juarez totaled $0.2 million of other exit costs. There was no balance for this reserve at June 30, 2007.

Fiscal Year 2006 Discontinued Operations:

On September 15, 2005, in conjunction with its restructuring plan to sharpen its focus on primary markets within the Furniture segment, the Company approved plans to sell the operations of a forest products hardwood lumber business and a business which produced and sold fixed-wall furniture systems.  Additionally on November 8, 2005, the Company approved a plan to exit a non-core business that manufactured polyurethane and polyester molded components for use in the recreational vehicle, signage, and residential furniture industries. 

On October 14, 2005, the Company completed the sale of the fixed-wall furniture systems business, which included primarily the sale of property and equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, and product rights.  The purchase price totaled $1.2 million, of which $0.3 million was received at closing and $0.9 million was a note receivable, which has been collected.  The sale resulted in a net loss of $1.4 million.  The loss on disposal of the fixed-wall furniture business included an after-tax goodwill impairment loss of $0.3 million recognized in the Furniture segment in fiscal year 2006.  The goodwill impairment loss was based upon the cessation of cash flows related to the fixed-wall furniture systems business.  The Company will not have significant continuing cash flows or continuing involvement with this business.

80


On November 30, 2005, the Company completed the sale of the forest products hardwood lumber business to Indiana Hardwoods, Inc., which included primarily the sale of property and equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, and timber assets.  The president and owner of Indiana Hardwoods, Inc. is Barry L. Cook, who was formerly employed by the Company as a Vice President of Kimball International, Inc. and had responsibility for this hardwoods lumber operation.  The transaction prices were negotiated between the Company and Indiana Hardwoods, Inc.  The Company also considered offers from other interested outside parties, but ultimately determined that it was in the Company's best interest financially to sell this operation to Indiana Hardwoods, Inc.  The purchase price totaled $25.5 million, of which $23.5 million was received at closing and $2.0 million is a note receivable.  The terms of the note receivable require monthly payments of interest for a three-year period, with the principal coming due after the three-year period.  The note is subordinate to the purchaser's bank loan.  If the purchaser is not in compliance with bank loan covenants or does not maintain sufficient cash flows, the principal payment on the note receivable may be delayed beyond three years.  The note may represent a concentration of credit risk.  The Company maintains a provision for potential credit losses based on expected collectibility of the note, which the Company believes is adequate.  The sale resulted in a net loss of $4.8 million.  The Company has no ongoing commitments resulting from the sales agreement. The Company will not have significant continuing cash flows or continuing involvement with this business.

On January 20, 2006, the Company completed the sale of a non-core business that manufactures polyurethane and polyester molded components for use in the recreational vehicle, signage, and residential furniture industries, which included primarily the sale of inventories and machinery and equipment.  The purchase price totaled $0.6 million.  The sale resulted in a net loss of $0.7 million.  The Company will not have significant continuing cash flows or continuing involvement with this business.

Fiscal Year 2005 Discontinued Operations:

On January 17, 2005, the Company announced its decision to exit the branded residential furniture business, which was part of the branded furniture product line within the Furniture segment.  The exit plan included discontinuing procurement of branded residential furniture, ending marketing and dealer activities, and selling remaining inventories.  The branded residential furniture operation had no long-lived assets, and all branded residential furniture inventory was sold.

On October 12, 2004, the Company announced a plan to exit its veneer slicing operation, which was part of the forest products product line within the Furniture segment.  The plan included the sale of veneer slicing machinery, equipment and remaining veneer inventories.  During fiscal year 2005, veneer slicing and warehousing operations ceased, and all inventory and assets were sold. 

In accordance with FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, these businesses have been classified as discontinued operations, and their operating results and gains (losses) on disposal are presented on the Gain (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax line of the Consolidated Statements of Income.

SHARES

        Section 1. Number. The total number of shares into which the corporation's capital stock is to be divided is 150,000,000 shares, identified by class and par value of shares as follows:
        (a) 50,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of the par value of $.05 per share; and

        (b) 100,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock of the par value of $.05 per share.

        Section 2. Share Split. On the Effective Date, and without any further action on the part of the corporation or its shareholders, each share of Class A Common Stock, $.31-1/4 par value, then issued (including shares held by the corporation as treasury shares), shall be split into two fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock, $.05 par value per share, and each share of Class B Common Stock, $.31-1/4 par value, then issued (including shares held by the corporation as treasury shares), shall be split into two fully paid and nonassessable shares of Class B Common Stock, $.05 par value per share. To reflect the share split provided above, each certificate representing shares of Class A Common Stock, $.31-1/4 par value, theretofore issued and outstanding or theretofore issued and held in the corporate treasury, and each certificate representing shares of Class B Common Stock, $.31-1/4 par value, theretofore issued and outstanding or theretofore issued and held in the corporate treasury, shall continue to represent, after the Effective Date, the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively, theretofore represented by such certificate, and each holder of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock shall be entitled, as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, to receive a new certificate representing a number of shares of Class A Common Stock, $.05 par value, or Class B Common Stock, $.05 par value, respectively, as authorized by the foregoing provisions, equal to the number of shares theretofore held so that, upon the Effective Date, each holder of record of a certificate theretofore representing issued Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock will be entitled to certificates representing in the aggregate two shares of Class A Common Stock, $.05 par value, or Class B Common Stock, $.05 par value, respectively, for each share of Class A Common Stock, $.31-1/4 par value, or Class B Common Stock, $.31-1/4 par value, respectively, of which the shareholder was the holder prior to the Effective Date.

        Section 3. Terms. The relative rights, preferences, limitations and restrictions of each class of shares of Common Stock are as follows:

  1. Dividends. The holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, from funds lawfully available therefor, all dividends payable in cash or other property of the corporation, and for this purpose Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be considered as one class, and the holders thereof shall be entitled to participate ratably, share for share, and without preference of either class over the other, in all dividends so declared and paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash dividends in each fiscal year of the corporation in an amount which is $.02 per share (the "Differential") greater than the amount of cash dividends which are paid on the Class A Common Stock in such year; provided, however, that
  1. if any such fiscal year shall consist of less than 360 days, then the Differential for each quarterly dividend declared during the resulting short fiscal year shall be equal to one-fourth of the Differential applicable to a full fiscal year (taking into account any adjustments that may be made to the Differential in accordance with Section 3(a)(iii) below);
  2. with respect to the first fiscal year ending after the Effective Date, the Differential for each quarterly dividend declared during the remainder of that fiscal year shall be equal to one-fourth of the Differential applicable to a full fiscal year (taking into account any adjustments that may be made to the Differential in accordance with Section 3(a)(iii) below); and
  3. in the event of a split or division of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into more shares of that class (excluding the split effected pursuant to Article IV, Section 2 above), or a combination of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock into a lesser number of shares of that class, or the declaration and payment of a stock dividend payable in shares of Class B Common Stock on the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, then, effective upon the effectiveness of such split, division or combination, or upon the payment of such stock dividend, as the case may be, the Differential shall be adjusted by multiplying the Differential theretofore in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of such split, division or combination, or the payment of such stock dividend, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding immediately following such split, division or combination, or the payment of such dividend, as the case may be. The Differential as so adjusted shall be rounded to the nearest tenth of a cent.

    All cash dividend payments to a holder of Class B Common Stock on any payment date with respect to all shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent.

    No stock dividend may be declared or paid on the outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock unless payable in shares of that class, and no stock dividend may be declared or paid on the outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock unless, at the same time, a stock dividend, at the same rate, is declared and paid on the outstanding shares of each class of Common Stock, payable in shares of that class. The outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock shall not be split or divided into more shares of that class, or combined into a lesser number of shares of that class, unless, at the same time, the outstanding shares of each class of Common Stock are similarly split, divided or combined.

  1. Voting. Except as otherwise provided in this Article IV and except as otherwise required by law, the voting power of the corporation shall vest in the holders of Class A Common Stock, the holder of each issued and outstanding share of Class A Common Stock being entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each such share, on all matters requiring the vote of shareholders, and the holders of Class B Common Stock shall not be entitled by reason of their holdings thereof to any voice or vote in the management or affairs of the corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders of Class B Common Stock at any time issued and outstanding shall be entitled, as a class, (i) to elect, at each meeting of shareholders at which directors are elected, one member of the Board of Directors of the corporation but shall not be entitled to vote upon the election of the remaining members of the Board of Directors of the corporation, and (ii) to full voting powers at any meeting of the shareholders of the corporation with respect to any proposed amendment to this Article IV or with respect to any consolidation, merger, sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge or other disposition of all or substantially all of its fixed assets, or the dissolution of the corporation. In addition to the foregoing, the express terms and provisions of any class of Common Stock shall not be changed without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of such class of Common Stock.

  2. Conversion. Any record holder of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled, at any time or from time to time, to convert any or all of such shares held by such holder into the same number of shares of Class B Common Stock. A record holder desiring to effect the conversion of shares of Class A Common Stock into shares of Class B Common stock shall furnish the corporation with (i) a signed written notice of the intended conversion, stating that such record holder desires to convert such shares of Class A Common Stock into the same number of shares of Class B Common Stock and requesting that the corporation issue all of such shares of Class B Common Stock to such holder, and (ii) the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class A Common Stock to be converted, in proper form for transfer. All Class A Common Stock surrendered for conversion hereunder shall be canceled and retired permanently and shall not be reissued.

  3. Dissolution. The Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall participate equally per share in all distributions of assets of the corporation upon voluntary or involuntary dissolution.

  4. Elimination of the Foregoing Provisions. If, at any time, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock shall constitute less than 15% of the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock then issued and outstanding or the corporation shall not have paid any dividends on the Class B Common Stock for a period of thirty-six consecutive calendar months, then thereupon, all of the rights, preferences, limitations and restrictions set forth in this Section 3 relating to Class B Common Stock shall become the same as the rights, preferences, limitations and restrictions of the Class A Common Stock provided for herein, without any further action on the part of the corporation or its shareholders, and all distinctions between Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereby be eliminated, so that all shares of Class B Common Stock shall be equal to shares of Class A Common Stock with respect to all matters, including without limitation, dividend payments and voting rights and all holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall vote as a single class (except as otherwise required by applicable law) on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the corporation; provided, however, the right and power to convert any shares of Class A Common Stock into shares of Class B Common Stock shall continue and, upon written request from the corporation to all holders of Class A Common Stock, such holders shall promptly take such steps as shall be necessary to convert the shares of Class A Common Stock held by such holders into shares of Class B Common Stock.

Exhibit 10(a)

SUMMARY OF DIRECTOR AND NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

This summary sets forth the compensation of the Directors of Kimball International, Inc. (the "Company"). The summary also includes compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and four most highly compensated executive officers (the "Named Executive Officers") of the Company as identified in the Company's Proxy Statement. 

Director Compensation

All Outside (non-employee) Directors receive annual compensation of $24,000 for the year for service as Directors, and an additional $2,000 for each Board meeting attended. The Chairperson of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors receives $3,500 per committee meeting, and other Audit Committee members receive $2,500 per committee meeting. Members of the Compensation and Governance Committee receive $1,000 per committee meeting.  

The Directors can elect to receive all of their annual retainer and/or meeting fees in shares of Class B Common Stock under the Company's 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan.   Directors are also reimbursed for travel expenses incurred in connection with Board and Committee meeting attendance.

An Outside Director is a director who is not an employee of the Company or one of its subsidiaries.  James C. Thyen, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Douglas A. Habig, Chairman of the Board, are Directors of the Company but do not receive compensation for their services as Directors.

Named Executive Officers

Base Pay

Periodically, the Compensation and Governance Committee ("the Committee") of the Board of Directors reviews and approves the salaries that are paid to the Company's executive officers. The following are the current annualized base salaries for the Company's Named Executive Officers identified in the last proxy statement:

     James C. Thyen, President and Chief Executive Officer

$847,600

     Douglas A. Habig, Chairman of the Board

$598,000

     Donald D. Charron, Executive Vice President, President-Kimball Electronics Group

$478,400

     P. Daniel Miller, Executive Vice President, President-Furniture

$468,000

     Robert F. Schneider, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer

$400,400


Cash Bonus Plan

Each of the Named Executive Officers is able to participate in the Company's 2005 Profit Sharing Incentive Bonus Plan (the "Plan"), which was adopted by the Committee and approved at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Share Owners. The profit sharing framework of this Plan has been in place since prior to the Company becoming publicly traded in 1976. The Plan includes profit determinations at three levels within the Company: (1) Worldwide for Company-wide performance ("Worldwide"); (2) at a Group level for certain combinations of Business Units ("Group"); and (3) at a Business Unit level for the performance of designated operations within the Company ("Business Unit").


Goal. The goal of the Plan is to link an employee's compensation with the long-term financial success of the Company. The intent is to encourage participants to think, act and be rewarded like owners, and to seek out and undertake initiatives that continuously improve the long-term performance of the Company.

Eligibility. Executive officers and full-time salaried employees of the Company, except those covered under commission compensation programs, are eligible to participate in the Plan ("Participants").  Eligible employees from the Reptron Electronics, Inc. acquisition were allowed to participate in the Plan beginning July 1, 2007.

Bonus Criteria. The Plan measures profitability in terms of "economic profit," generally equal to net income less the cost of capital. New capital expenditures are not included in computing the cost of capital for twelve months. The Committee must approve the profitability goals ("Targets") within the first 25% of the period of service to which the Targets relate, but not later than 90 days after the commencement of that period ("Relevant Time Period"). The Committee, within the Relevant Time Period, may make adjustments for non-operating income and loss and other profit-computation elements as it deems appropriate to provide optimal incentives for eligible employees. If other adjustments are necessary beyond the Relevant Time Period, the Named Executive Officers will not be eligible to receive any bonus resulting from such adjustments.

Bonus Amounts. The Plan establishes potential bonus amounts as a range of percentages of the Participant's salary, with the bonus percentage increasing with higher levels of profitability. The Plan also establishes different bonus percentage ranges across several Participant categories, setting higher bonus percentage ranges for Participants who, by virtue of their responsibilities, are expected to have a greater effect on the Company's profitability.

The Named Executive Officers may earn bonuses anywhere from zero up to 100 percent of base salary. The Plan is designed so that Participants will achieve maximum bonuses only if the Company achieves Targets comparable to those of leading public companies and/or its competitors.

A Participant's total bonus under the Plan may not exceed $1,000,000 for any fiscal year.

Administration. For a particular fiscal year, the Committee must approve the Targets, profit-computation adjustments, and any other conditions at the Worldwide and Group profitability levels within the Relevant Time Period. Company management will determine the comparable features for each Business Unit profitability level.

At the end of each fiscal year, but before Plan bonuses may be paid, the Committee must certify in writing that Targets and other conditions have been satisfied. The Committee does not have the discretion to increase the amount of any bonus for the Named Executive Officers.

Because no single incentive plan is perfect and special situations occur where individual achievement may not be adequately recognized by the 2005 Profit Sharing Incentive Bonus Plan, there is a Supplemental Bonus Plan reviewed and approved on an annual basis by the Board of Directors where a maximum of 1.5%, on an after-tax basis, of the Company's overall annual net income (before bonuses paid pursuant to the Company's 2005 Profit Sharing Incentive Bonus Plan) may be designated as supplemental bonuses to those eligible employees, including all Named Executive Officers, at the discretion of the Chairman of the Board and President, Chief Executive Officer. Payments of any supplemental bonus are made under the same terms and conditions as the 2005 Profit Sharing Incentive Bonus Plan.  No bonuses were granted to any of the Named Executive Officers under this Supplemental Bonus Plan for fiscal year 2007.

Bonus Payments. Under the Company's bonus plans, bonuses are accrued annually and paid in five installments over the succeeding fiscal year. Except for provisions relating to retirement, death, permanent disability, and certain other circumstances described in a participant's employment agreement, participants must be actively employed on each payment date to be eligible to receive any unpaid bonus installment. The total amount of bonus accrued and authorized to be paid to the Named Executive Officers based on the Company's fiscal year 2007 results is listed below. The Named Executive Officers received an installment of 50% of the payment in August 2007, and the remaining portions will be paid in equal installments in September 2007, January 2008, April 2008, and June 2008.

     James C. Thyen, President and Chief Executive Officer

$317,441

     Douglas A. Habig, Chairman of the Board

$254,998

     Donald D. Charron, Executive Vice President, President-Kimball Electronics Group

$105,731

     P. Daniel Miller, Executive Vice President, President-Furniture

$219,412

     Robert F. Schneider, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer

$150,189

 


Retirement Plans

The Named Executive Officers participate in a defined contribution, participant-directed retirement plan with a 401(k) provision that all domestic employees, except domestic employees from the Reptron Electronics, Inc. acquisition, are eligible to participate in (the "Retirement Plan"). The Retirement Plan provides for voluntary employee contributions as well as a discretionary annual Company contribution based on a percent of net income with certain minimum and maximum limits as determined by the Board of Directors. Each eligible employee's Company contribution is defined as a percent of eligible compensation, the percent being identical for all eligible employees, including Named Executive Officers. Participant contributions are fully vested immediately, and Company contributions are fully vested after five years of participation. All Named Executive Officers are fully vested. The Retirement Plan is fully funded. For those eligible employees who, under the 1986 Tax Reform Act, are deemed to be highly compensated, their individual Company contribution under the Retirement Plan is reduced. For employees who are eligible, including all Named Executive Officers, there is a nonqualified, Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (SERP) in which the Company contributes to the account of each individual an amount equal to the reduction in the contribution under the Retirement Plan arising from the provisions of the 1986 Tax Reform Act.

Other

The Named Executive Officers are eligible to receive grants under the Company's 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The Named Executive Officers also receive nominal benefits such as executive financial services programs, supplemental group medical, automotive allowances, and other miscellaneous items.  In fiscal year 2006, the Named Executive Officers' personal use of the company aircraft was limited to transportation for spouses and executives related to a Board approved executive preventive healthcare program.  Beginning in fiscal year 2007, the Named Executive Officers may periodically use the Company aircraft for limited personal reasons.  The exact amounts received from these benefits are not predetermined and are disclosed annually in the Company's Proxy Statement.
