5 MATTEL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION ------------------------------------------- 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position and interim results as of and for the periods presented have been included. Certain amounts in the financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current period's presentation. Because the Company's business is seasonal, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those which may be expected for a full year. The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes in its 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders. 2. Accounts receivable are shown net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $13.9 million (March 31, 1996), $13.9 million (March 31, 1995), and $10.8 million (December 31, 1995). In addition to the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company has reduced its accounts receivable by $19.6 million (March 31, 1996), $19.5 million (March 31, 1995), and $22.9 million (December 31, 1995) to reflect the write-down of certain uncollectible receivables to their net realizable value. 3. Inventories are comprised of the following:

4. Net cash flows from operating activities include cash payments for the following:
For the Three Months Ended -------------------------- March 31, March 31, (In thousands) 1996 1995 - -------------- ----------- ----------- Interest $ 11,527 $ 11,319 Income taxes 17,743 22,745 --------------------------
6 5. In the current quarter, the Board of Directors declared cash dividends of $0.060 per common share, compared to $0.048 per common share in the first quarter of 1995. 6. Share and per share data presented in these financial statements reflect the retroactive effects of the five-for-four stock split declared in February 1996. Income per common share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period. Weighted average share computations assume the exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants, reduced by the number of shares which could be repurchased at average market prices with proceeds from exercise. 7 MATTEL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- Mattel, Inc. (the "Company") designs, manufactures, markets and distributes a broad variety of toy products on a worldwide basis. The Company's business is dependent in great part on its ability each year to redesign, restyle and extend existing core products and product lines and to design and develop innovative new toys and product lines. New products have limited lives, ranging from one to three years, and generally must be updated and refreshed each year. Core brands have historically provided the Company with relatively stable growth. The Company's four principal core brands are BARBIE fashion dolls and doll clothing and accessories; FISHER-PRICE toys and juvenile products, including the POWER WHEELS line of battery-powered, ride-on vehicles; the Company's Disney-licensed toys; and die-cast HOT WHEELS vehicles and playsets, each of which has broad worldwide appeal. Additional core product lines consist of large dolls, including CABBAGE PATCH KIDS; preschools toys, including SEE `N SAY talking toys; the UNO and SKIP-BO card games; and the SCRABBLE game, which the Company owns in markets outside of the United States and Canada. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------- The Company's business is seasonal, and, therefore, results of operations are comparable only with corresponding periods. Following is a percentage analysis of operating results:
For the Three Months Ended ------------------------ March 31, March 31, 1996 1995 ----------- ----------- Net sales 100% 100% =========== =========== Gross profit 49% 48% Advertising and promotion expenses 14 14 Other selling and administrative expenses 24 24 ----------- ----------- Operating profit 11 10 Interest expense 3 2 ----------- ----------- Income before income taxes 8% 8% =========== ===========
Net sales in the first quarter of 1996 increased $42.3 million or 8% over the 1995 first quarter, reflecting increased demand for the Company's core products such as BARBIE doll products; FISHER-PRICE toys and juvenile products; as well as the new CABBAGE PATCH KIDS line. 8 Worldwide revenues from core products represented 90% of gross revenues for the current quarter compared to 86% in the first quarter of 1995. Core brands increased 14%, mainly due to greater demand for BARBIE and BARBIE- related products, which increased from $207.9 million to $252.3 million. FISHER-PRICE contributed $192.2 million to gross sales in 1996 compared to $172.8 million in 1995, and sales of CABBAGE PATCH KIDS reached $20.0 million in 1996. Sales to customers within the United States grew 12% and accounted for 64% of consolidated sales compared to 62% in the year-ago quarter. Sales to customers outside the United States increased 4% compared to 1995, including the $0.6 million favorable effect of the generally weaker US dollar relative to the year-ago quarter. At comparable foreign currency exchange rates, sales internationally also grew 4%. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased one percentage point to 49% over the year-ago quarter, principally as a result of lower resin and other commodity prices, as well as improved product mix. Advertising and promotion expenses decreased slightly as a percentage of net sales, reflecting the Company's ongoing effort to manage expense growth relative to increasing revenue growth. As a percentage of net sales, other selling and administrative expenses remained virtually constant at 24%. Other expense, net, increased $7.1 million, largely due to the impact of the first quarter 1995 gains recognized on a Mexican insurance claim and foreign currency transactions. Interest expense increased $3.3 million or 30% compared to the first quarter of 1995 as a result of the higher Medium-Term Note balance in the first quarter of 1996. FINANCIAL CONDITION ------------------- The Company's financial condition remained strong during the first quarter of 1996 as a result of its profitable operating results. The Company's cash position, including marketable securities, as of March 31, 1996 was $58.2 million, compared to $89.3 million as of the first quarter 1995. Cash decreased by $425.3 million since December 31, 1995 primarily as a result of reduction of year-end accounts payable and accrued liabilities, financing of new inventory, and repayment of $30.0 million in Medium-Term Notes. 9 Accounts receivable increased $67.8 million over the year-ago quarter reflecting higher sales volume. Since year end, accounts receivable increased $89.7 million mainly due to receivables generated by 1996 sales, partially offset by collection of prior year receivables and the sale of certain trade receivables. Inventory balances increased $87.6 million since year end and $24.3 million over the 1995 quarter end, primarily as a result of the Company's production in support of future sales volume. Short-term notes payable decreased $120.9 million compared to the year ago quarter, mainly due to an increase of $109.5 million in Medium-Term Notes. Seasonal financing needs for the next twelve months are expected to be satisfied through internally generated cash, issuance of commercial paper, and use of the Company's various short-term bank lines of credit. Details of the Company's capitalization are as follows:
(In millions) March 31, 1996 March 31, 1995 Dec. 31, 1995 - ------------- ---------------------------------------------- 6-7/8% Senior Notes $ 99.8 5% $ 99.6 6% $ 99.8 5% 6-3/4% Senior Notes 100.0 5 100.0 6 100.0 6 Medium-Term Notes 220.0 12 110.5 7 220.0 12 Other long-term debt obligations 60.9 4 65.2 4 61.1 3 ---------------------------------------------- Total long-term debt 480.7 26 375.3 23 480.9 26 Other long-term liabilities 99.4 5 84.1 6 91.7 5 Shareholders' equity 1,299.8 69 1,102.2 71 1,275.2 69 ---------------------------------------------- $1,879.9 100% $1,561.6 100% $1,847.8 100% ==============================================
Total long-term debt increased as a percentage of total capitalization compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily due to an increase in Medium- Term Notes. Future long-term capital needs are expected to be satisfied through retention of corporate earnings and the issuance of long-term debt instruments. In February of 1996, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement which will allow for the issuance of up to $350 million of debt and equity securities, which could include Medium-Term Notes. Shareholders' equity increased $24.6 million since December 31, 1995, and $197.6 million over the 1995 first quarter primarily as a result of the Company's profitable operating results and exercises of employee stock options, partially offset by treasury stock purchases and dividends declared to common shareholders. In addition, the increase over the 1995 first quarter was partially offset by the repurchase of Series F Preference Stock from the International Games, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan. 10 PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ---------------------------- Item 1. Legal Proceedings - -------------------------- On October 13, 1995, Michelle Greenwald filed a complaint (Case No. YC 025 008) against the Company in Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles (the "Greenwald Action"). The plaintiff is a former Mattel employee who was terminated by the Company in July 1995. The complaint seeks $50 million in general and special damages, plus punitive damages, for (i) breach of oral, written and implied contract, (ii) wrongful termination in violation of public policy and (iii) violation of California Labor Code Section 970. The plaintiff's pleadings contain allegations of improper accounting practices on behalf of the Company. In response to the plaintiff's allegations, the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors has commenced an investigation with the assistance of independent outside advisors. Additionally, the Securities and Exchange Commission has agreed to forebear from contacting any current Mattel employees or former Mattel employees represented by counsel for Mattel or counsel paid for by Mattel pending completion of the Audit Committee's independent investigation. On April 23, 1996, a purported class and derivative action entitled Lewis v. Vogelstein et al. (Case No. 14954) was commenced in the -------------------------- Delaware Court of Chancery, New Castle County (the "Lewis Action") against the Company and its directors. The plaintiff alleges that the directors of the Company breached their fiduciary duties by causing the Company to adopt the Mattel 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan"). Specifically, the plaintiff alleges that the formula option grants to non-employee directors as permitted by the 1996 Plan constitute corporate waste. The complaint seeks (i) to have the case certified as a class action, (ii) to have the 1996 Plan declared void, (iii) a preliminary and permanent injunction enjoining the grant of stock options to non-employee directors under the 1996 Plan, and (iv) attorney's fees. The 1996 Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders on May 8, 1996. The Company believes the allegations of the complaints in the Greenwald Action and the Lewis Action to be without merit and intends to defend both actions vigorously. 11 Item 6.
