See accompanying notes. 4 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 1 - Basis of Financial Statement Preparation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and consist of only normal recurring adjustments. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year-end and are subject to year-end adjustments, and audit by independent public accountants. The balance sheet at June 30, 1999, has been taken from the audited financial statements at that date. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1999 annual report. Effective July 1, 1999, the Company adopted a 52- or 53-week fiscal year, changing the year-end date from June 30 to the Saturday nearest the end of June. Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Note 2 - Common Stock and Per Share Information Common stock is $2 par - shares authorized 6,000,000 of common stock and 4,000,000 of Class B common stock.

Note 4 - New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounts Standard No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The statement requires companies to recognize all derivative contracts on the balance sheet at fair value and establishes accounting rules or changes in fair value that result from hedging activities. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the statement may have on its financial statements. Note 5 - Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders. Comprehensive income and its components consist of the following: For the Nine Months Ended For the Three Months Ended ------------------------- -------------------------- Apr. 1, 2000 Mar. 31, 1999 Apr. 1, 2000 Mar. 31, 1999 --------------- ---------------- ------------------ ------------------ Net income $6,351,744 $ 5,112,271 $2,176,589 $ 1,565,117 Other comprehensive income: Foreign currency translation adjustment 30,363 (116,466) (6,973) 40,987 Minimum SERP liability adjustment (620) (447,714) 142 (525) ------------- --------------- ------------- -------------- Comprehensive income $6,381,487 $ 4,548,091 $2,169,758 $ 1,605,579 ============= =============== ============= ==============
Note 6 - Acquisition On October 1, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Idea Industries, Inc. ("Idea"). Idea designs, manufactures and markets ergonomic office products, including adjustable keyboard mechanisms, keyboard and computer mouse platforms, wrist rests and CPU holders. The acquisition was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on the estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition. The cost of the acquisition in excess of net identifiable assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. The terms of the Idea acquisition agreement provide for additional consideration to be paid if Idea's sales exceed certain targeted levels. The maximum amount of contingent consideration is $550,000 payable through 2001. In calendar year 1999, the additional consideration payment was $41,797, which has been included in goodwill. Any additional consideration paid will be recorded as goodwill when payment is made. The results of the acquisition were not material to the Company's consolidated operating results, therefore pro forma financial statements have not been prepared. 6 Note 7 - Sale of The Hirsh Company On September 1, 1998, the Company sold The Hirsh Company ("Hirsh"), a wholly owned subsidiary. This resulted in a pre-tax loss of $11,800,000, which was included in the June 30, 1998, financial results. The loss included the write-off of the unamortized balance of goodwill recorded in connection with the purchase of Hirsh. In connection with the sale, the Company recognized an additional tax cost of $1,000,000, resulting in a total loss related to the sale of Hirsh of $12,800,000. Note 8 - Restricted Stock and Performance-Option Plan On February 1, 2000, William Dutmers, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Knape & Vogt was granted 6,000 shares of restricted common stock and the option to purchase an additional 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $15.875 per share. The grant and the options will vest if the Company achieves specific financial objectives within a five-year performance period. During the performance period, the grantee may vote and receive dividends on the restricted shares, but the shares are subject to transfer restrictions and are forfeited if the grantee terminates employment or the Company does not achieve its financial objectives. Note 9 - Stock Repurchase On September 1, 1998, the Company announced its intention to purchase up to 1,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to a Dutch Auction self-tender offer at a price range of $19 to $22 per share. The Board of Directors also approved the purchase in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, following the completion of the Dutch Auction, of shares of common stock in an amount which when added to the number of shares of common stock purchased in the Dutch Auction would equal 1,350,000. The Dutch Auction was concluded on October 7, 1998, with the purchase of 1,230,784 shares at a price of $21 per share. At each of the January 22, 1999, and the August 20, 1999, Board of Directors meetings, the Board approved an additional 400,000 shares for the stock repurchase program. Utilizing these Board authorizations, the Company has purchased 113,597 shares during the first nine months of fiscal 2000 for approximately $1.9 million with the price per share ranging from approximately $14.25 to $17.75. Since the beginning of the stock repurchase program in fiscal 1999, the Company has purchased 1,786,340 shares for approximately $35.3 million. 7 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain matters discussed in this section include forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties. When used in this document, the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "goal," "think," "forecast," "project," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning future revenue growth, and the expected ability of the Company and its key customers, dealers and suppliers to successfully manage Year 2000 issues. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which would cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on those forward-looking statements that speak only as of the date of this report. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Sales The following table indicates the Company's net sales (in millions) and percentage of total sales by product category for the nine-month and three-month periods ended April 1, 2000 and March 31, 1999: Nine Months End Three Months Ended --------------- ------------------ Apr. 1, Mar. 31, Apr. 1, Mar. 31, 2000 % 1999 % 2000 % 1999 % ------------------------ -------------------------- -------------------------- ------------------------- Shelving systems $ 37.9 34.4% $ 44.2 38.0% $13.3 34.4% $12.8 35.4% Drawer slides 51.1 46.4% 53.9 46.5% 17.5 45.1% 17.7 49.1% Hardware/ Other 21.2 19.2% 18.0 15.5% 7.9 20.5% 5.5 15.5% ------------------------ -------------------------- -------------------------- ------------------------- Total $110.2 100.0% $116.1 100.0% $38.7 100.0% $36.0 100.0% ======================== ========================== ========================== =========================
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 increased $2.7 million from the same period in the prior year. For the nine-month period net sales decreased $5.9 million from one year ago. The sales decline for the nine-month period is due to the contribution of The Hirsh Company, which was sold in September 1998. Excluding its contribution, net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 would have been $108.6 million. Sales of precision drawer slides remain strong, however, they haven't been able to offset the sales decline in utility slides following their discontinuance during the second quarter of fiscal 1999. In addition, the Company continues to face strong competition and downward pricing pressures in the retail market and believes that this will continue. A majority of the sales growth in both the third quarter and for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 is attributable to new products introduced in the current fiscal year and the acquisition of Idea Industries, Inc. Management anticipates that newly introduced products will be the primary drivers of net sales growth in the future. Gross Profit Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, was 27.2% for the third quarter and 27.1% for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared to 24.8% and 23.7%, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year. The increase in gross profit during fiscal 2000 reflects the Company's restructuring efforts, including the sale of The Hirsh Company, and its emphasis on cost reduction combined with continuous improvement in the manufacturing process. In fact, promotional pricing offered during the third quarter o fiscal 2000 to launch one of the Company's new product lines into the retail market negatively impacted gross margins. Excluding the impact of these launch costs, gross margins would have approximated those earned in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. During the first nine months of fiscal 1999, the Company recorded a $400,000 inventory write-off for potentially obsolete inventory related to certain product lines that were discontinued. 8 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Operating Expenses Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 increased to 17.5% from 17.4% in the same period in the prior year. For the nine-month period ended April 1, 2000, selling and general administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 17.2% from 16.5% in the prior year. Fiscal 2000 expenses included higher levels of spending associated with the launch of certain new products and additional development costs being incurred to bring other new products to market. The prior year included Michigan Single Business Tax refunds of $852,460 pre-tax. As a result of the decision to re-deploy certain production assets, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $600,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. This loss reflected the write-down of the related tooling assets to their estimated fair value. Other Expenses/(Income) Interest expense was $362,932 for the quarter and $1,051,793 for the nine months ended April 1, 2000, compared with $228,013 and $533,791, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year. The increase in interest expense was attributable to the higher level of borrowings during fiscal 2000. Other miscellaneous expense/(income) was $191 for the third quarter and $1,201 for the first nine months of fiscal 2000. This compares to $9,700 and $(626,805), respectively, for fiscal 1999. In fiscal 1999, the Company received interest income on Michigan Single Business Tax refunds and two patent infringement settlements. Income Taxes The effective tax rates for the quarter and nine months ended April 1, 2000, were 35.5% and 35.4% compared with the rates of 35.6% and 34.5%, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year. The increase in the nine-month rate compared to the prior year was primarily due to foreign tax credits recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 1999. Net Income For the quarter ended April 1, 2000, net income was $2,176,589 or $0.51 per diluted share compared to $1,565,117 or $0.34 per diluted share for the third quarter of last year. Net income of $6,351,744, or $1.49 per diluted share was recorded for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared with $5,112,271, or $.99 per diluted share for the same period in the prior year. Fiscal 1999 results included the impairment loss and related inventory obsolescence reserve recorded in the second quarter, which decreased net income by $650,000 for both the second quarter and the fiscal year. This charge was offset by income recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 on the Michigan Single Business Tax refunds and the two patent settlements of approximately $895,000. Liquidity and Capital Resources Net cash from operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 provided $11,946,880 compared with $8,081,437 for the first nine months of fiscal 1999. Cash flows were positively impacted by the increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The conversion to a 52-week fiscal year increased accounts payable due to timing of payments at the end of March. The increase in accrued expenses reflected an increase in certain benefit-related accruals such as bonus and vacation. 9 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Capital expenditures totaled $5,401,009 for the nine months ended April 1, 2000, compared to $3,066,746 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increased capital spending reflects investments in manufacturing technology, manufacturing support systems, tooling for new products and the expansion of the Company's Indiana facility. At April 1, 2000, the only significant capital expenditure commitment was for the new facility being constructed at the Company's Indiana location. The commitment for the new building approximated $1.0 million. Commitments for the related machinery and equipment are approximately $.7 million. Capital expenditures during the remainder of the fiscal year are anticipated to remain at approximately the same level as those in the first nine months. On October 1, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Idea Industries, Inc. ("Idea") for a purchase price of $5,267,877. Idea designs, manufactures and markets ergonomic office products, including adjustable keyboard mechanisms, keyboard and computer mouse platforms, wrist rests and CPU holders. The acquisition was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on the estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition. The cost of the acquisition in excess of net identifiable assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. The terms of the Idea acquisition agreement provide for additional consideration to be paid if Idea's sales exceed certain targeted levels. The maximum amount of contingent consideration is $550,000 payable through 2001. In calendar year 1999, the additional consideration payment was $41,797, which has been included in goodwill. Any additional consideration paid will be recorded as goodwill when payment is made. In fiscal 1999, the Company recorded $18,129,569 of proceeds from the sale of the Hirsh subsidiary and the related loss in fiscal 1998. On September 1, 1998, the Company announced its intention to purchase up to 1,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to a Dutch Auction self-tender offer at a price range of $19 to $22 per share. The Board of Directors also approved the purchase in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, following the completion of the Dutch Auction, of shares of common stock in an amount which when added to the number of shares of common stock purchased in the Dutch Auction would equal 1,350,000. The Dutch Auction was concluded on October 7, 1998, with the purchase of 1,230,784 shares at a price of $21 per share. At each of the January 22, 1999, and the August 20, 1999, Board of Directors meetings, the Board approved an additional 400,000 shares for the stock repurchase program. Utilizing these Board authorizations, the Company has purchased 113,597 shares during the first nine months of fiscal 2000 for approximately $1.9 million with the price per share ranging from approximately $14.25 to $17.75. Since the beginning of the stock repurchase program in fiscal 1999, the Company has purchased 1,786,340 shares for approximately $35.3 million. The long-term debt balance increased to $20,000,000 at April 1, 2000 compared with $17,700,000 at June 30, 1999, and $18,000,000 at March 31, 1999. The increase from June 30, 1999, primarily reflects the purchase of Idea. The increase from the March 31, 1999, balance reflects funds utilized for the stock repurchase program. Anticipated cash flows from operations and available balances on the revolving credit line are expected to be adequate to fund working capital, capital expenditures, stock repurchases and dividend payments. 10 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Year 2000 As of May 5, 2000, the Company has not experienced any Year 2000 related disruptions to its own internal systems nor have any third party vendors experienced any Year 2000 disruptions that have materially affected their ability to do business with the Company. Although the Company and its third party vendors do not appear to have suffered any significant Year 2000 related disruptions as a result of the rollover from 1999 to 2000, it is possible that certain Year 2000 problems may exist but have not yet materialized. 11 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to market risks, which include changes in the foreign currency exchange rate as measured against the U.S. dollar and changes in U.S. interest rates. The Company holds a derivative instrument in the form of an interest rate swap, which is viewed as a risk management tool and is not used for trading or speculative purposes. The intent of the interest rate swap is to effectively fix the interest rate on part of the borrowings under the Company's variable rate revolving credit agreement. Quantitative disclosures relating to financial instruments and debt are included in the tables below. The following table provides information on the Company's fixed maturity investments as of April 1, 2000 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table also presents the corresponding interest rate swap on this debt. Since the interest rate swap effectively fixes the interest rate on the notional amount of debt, changes in interest rates have no current effect on the interest expense recorded by the Company on the portion of the debt covered by the interest rate swap. Liability Amount Maturity Date - --------- ------ ------------- Variable rate revolving credit agreement $45 million November 1, 2004 First $20,000,000 at an interest rate of 6.1088% plus weighted average credit spread of .500 % Amounts in excess of $20,000,000 have an interest rate of approximately 6.82% Interest Rate Swap - ------------------ Notional amount $20 million June 1, 2006 Pay fixed/Receive variable - 6.10125% Pay fixed interest rate - 6.25%
The Company has a sales office located in Canada. Sales are typically denominated in Canadian dollars, thereby creating exposures to changes in exchange rates. The changes in the Canadian/U.S. exchange rate may positively or negatively affect the Company's sales, gross margins and retained earnings. The Company attempts to minimize currency exposure through working capital management. The Company does not hedge its exposure to translation gains and losses relating to foreign currency net asset exposures. 12 KNAPE & VOGT MANUFACTURING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES PART II.

Term of Option The term of this option shall be for a period of five (5) years from the date hereof, subject to earlier termination as provided herein. 4. No Guaranteed Employment The option shall not impose upon the Company or the Bank any obligation to retain the Optionee in its employ or service for any period. 5. Exercise of Option Except as herein, set forth this option shall not be exercisable prior to that date on which the Corporation's common stock shall have for the prior twenty consecutive trading days closed at or above a sale price on the NASDAQ National Market of $21.00 per share ("Target Price"). Thereafter, this option may be exercised at any time and from time to time, as to any part or all of the shares covered hereby, but not as to less than 100 shares at any one time, unless the number purchased is the total number at that time purchasable under the option. This option may not be exercised and shall be forfeited if the Target Price is not achieved before the expiration or earlier termination of this option.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification shall, without the consent of the Optionee, alter or impair any of the Optionee's rights or the Company's obligations hereunder. 11. Tax Withholding The exercise of all or any portion of this option is subject to the satisfaction of withholding tax or other withholding liabilities, if any, under federal, state and local laws, in connection with such exercise or the delivery or purchase of shares pursuant hereoto. The exercise of this option shall not be effective unless applicable withholding shall have been effected or obtained in the following manner or in any manner acceptable to the Company's Executive Compensation Committee.
