Basis of Presentation and Organization Pursuant to a Purchase Agreement dated as of September 20, 1996 ("Agreement"), among wholly-owned subsidiaries of United Technologies Corporation ("UTC"), including UT Automotive, Inc. ("UTA"), United Technologies Automotive Systems, Inc., United Technologies Automotive Systems de Mexico S.A. de C.V., IPCO, Inc. (collectively, the "UTC entities") and Breed Technologies Inc. ("Breed"), the operations comprising the worldwide Steering Wheels Business of the UTC entities (the "Business") were sold to Breed effective October 25, 1996. Under the terms of the Agreement, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Business were sold with the exception of the following: - All cash, deposits, bank accounts and other cash equivalents; - Prepaid insurance; - All related party receivables and payables between the Business and affiliates; - Existing assets and liabilities related to providing certain retirement benefits, welfare benefits, deferred compensation or other employee benefits for employees of the North American operations; - Pension assets and liabilities relating to North American operations; - Land, building and certain equipment at the Niles, Michigan facility - Federal and state income tax and franchise tax assets and liabilities relating to the period prior to October 25, 1996; and - Liabilities, including environmental reserves, relating to the Niles, Michigan property to be retained by the UTC entities. Throughout the period covered by the financial statements, the Business was conducted and accounted for as an operating division of UTA. The Business is comprised of parts of several legal entities. Historically, separate financial statements were not prepared for the Business. These financial statements were prepared to comply with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These combined financial statements were derived from the historical accounting records of the UTC entities, and do not reflect the impact of the transaction discussed above. The Combined Statement of Income includes all revenues and costs attributable to the Business, including allocation of costs for facilities, functions and services used by the Business at sites shared with other UTA operations, and costs for certain functions and services performed by centralized UTA and UTC organizations either directly or indirectly for the Business. All of the allocations and estimates in the financial statements are based on assumptions that UTC management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. However, these allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have resulted if the Business had been operated as a separate entity. The Business is engaged in developing, manufacturing, marketing and distributing automotive and industrial steering wheels, air bag covers, horn pads and related molded products to original equipment automotive manufacturers and their suppliers in North America and in Europe. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of combination The combined financial statements include the accounts of the various units comprising the Business. In Europe, the operations of the Business are conducted through United Technologies Automotive Clifford Limited ("UTAC"), a U.K. corporation with two manufacturing and assembly facilities in Birmingham, England. In North America, operations have been conducted at separate facilities for the Business in Niles, Michigan and Grabill, Indiana and at facilities in Monterrey, Mexico and Detroit, Michigan that are shared with other UTA businesses. All material transactions among the units within the Business have been eliminated. Sales from the Business to other UTC entities are not significant. Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized upon shipment of the product to the customer. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. Included in inventory are direct material, direct labor and allocation of certain manufacturing overhead costs. Cash equivalents Cash equivalents are comprised of highly-liquid investment instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized, and costs for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed using accelerated and straight-line methods. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings and improvements 20-40 Machinery, tooling and equipment 3-12 Furniture and fixtures 3-12 Depreciation expense approximated $4,379 for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, the Business estimates the future undiscounted cash flows of the operations to which the property, plant and equipment relates to ensure that the carrying value has not been impaired. If the undiscounted pre-tax cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value. Other than as provided in the Niles plant closure costs discussed in Note 10, management believes no such impairment exists at October 25, 1996. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Income taxes Other than UTAC, which files a separate tax return, the taxable income or loss of the various units comprising the Business were included in the tax return of the UTC entity of which they were a part. As such, separate income tax returns were not prepared or filed for the Business. Income tax expense and other tax related information in these combined financial statements has been calculated substantially as if the Business were a separate entity. The calculation of tax provisions and deferred taxes necessarily required certain assumptions, allocations and estimates which management believes are reasonable to accurately reflect tax reporting for the Business as a stand-alone entity. Deferred taxes are provided to give recognition to the effect of expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Current tax liabilities are considered settled through the Parent company investment account. Foreign currency translation The U.K. operations utilize the local currency as the functional currency. Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of operations are translated at average exchange rates during the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in the exchange rates are accumulated as a separate component of equity. The Mexican operations utilize the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Gains and losses resulting from translation of assets and liabilities were immaterial during the period and are included in operating results for the period. Goodwill Goodwill is net of $2,600 of amortization as of October 25, 1996 and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years. Amortization expense was approximately $313 for the period from January 1, 1996 to October 25, 1996. On a periodic basis, the Business estimates the future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the operations to which goodwill relates to ensure that the carrying value of such goodwill has not been impaired. On the basis of this analysis, management believes no such impairment exists at October 25, 1996. If the undiscounted pre-tax cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value. Unbilled tooling costs Unbilled tooling costs represent costs incurred on tooling projects in process which have not yet been billed to customers. Tooling amounts billed to customers are included in accounts receivable. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Financial instruments The carrying amount of the Business' financial instruments, which includes cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and UTC affiliate financing, approximates their fair market value at October 25, 1996. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. Related Party Transactions Corporate services The combined financial statements include significant transactions with other UTA and UTC organizations involving functions and services that were provided to the Business. These services include information systems support, certain centralized accounting functions, legal services, benefits administration, quality control, executive office and facilities. The costs of these functions and services allocated to the Business approximated $1,400 for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996. In addition to the services described above, the Business participates in UTC developed and administered insurance and employee benefit programs, including group medical, general and product liability and other standard liability coverage. Costs allocated to the Business relating to these programs for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996 approximated $2,650. Employee benefit programs are discussed in more detail in Note 11. Allocations and charges for the programs described above have been made based on historical or anticipated experience for the Business or based on percentages of total costs for the services provided using methods that UTC management believes are reasonable. Such charges and allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred if the Business had been a separate entity. 3. Related Party Transactions (continued) Transition services In conjunction with the sale of the Business, transitional services agreements have been executed between UTC entities and Breed which provide for continuation of certain computer and administrative services for a limited period of time. In addition, transitional lease agreements have been executed with respect to certain administrative office space, the Niles, Michigan and Monterrey, Mexico facilities, and Niles employees. These agreements expire in 1997 and are generally cancelable by Breed upon 30 days notice. Cash management The North American operations of the Business participate in UTC's centralized cash management program with respect to intercompany sales and accounts receivable, accounts payable and payroll/employee benefits. Under this program, accounts receivable are collected and cash is invested centrally. Additionally, disbursements are funded centrally. As a result, the Business does not report a cash balance, other than petty cash and cash balances of $2,141 relating to UTAC. The cash activities of the North American operations of the Business are reflected in the Parent company investment balance. Historically, the intercompany receivables and payables have been considered settled in the normal course of business and are not interest bearing. The net cumulative, interdivisional balances are included in the combined balance sheets as part of Parent company investment. A reconciliation of the Parent company investment account activity for the period is as follows: Balance, December 31, 1995 $ 38,484 Net income 913 Cumulative translation adjustment 72 Net intercompany transactions 4,458 --------- Balance,October 25, 1996 $ 43,927 ========= Interest No interest is charged to the North American operations of the Business relating to the Parent company investment. Interest expense shown in the accompanying combined statement of income relates only to the operations of UTAC (See Note 8). Interest is considered settled on a current basis through the Parent company investment account. Investment in joint venture The Business has a 31% equity interest in Hankook-Sheller Chusik Hoesa, a Korean Corporation ("Hankook-Sheller"), whose primary business operations are the manufacture and sale of steering wheels in Korea. The Business' investment in Hankook-Sheller is accounted for using the equity method. As a result of cumulative losses, the investment has been reduced to zero at October 25, 1996 (which approximates the net equity of Hankook-Sheller at October 25, 1996). The Business also has a technical assistance agreement with Hankook-Sheller for which it receives a royalty. Royalty income from Hankook-Sheller aggregated $330 for the period from January 1, 1996 to October 25, 1996. 4. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable is comprised of the following: October 25, 1996 Accounts receivable - trade $ 29,082 Tooling receivables 2,354 Miscellaneous receivables 376 Allowances (1,556) ------------- $ 30,256 ============= The Business principally sells to major automotive companies. The Business performs ongoing credit evaluations and generally does not require collateral. During the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996, the percentage of sales to total sales for significant customers was as follows: Ford Motor Company (43%); Chrysler Corporation (18%); TRW (13%); and Rover (9%). 5. Inventories October 25, 1996 Raw materials $ 3,768 Work in process 2,964 Finished goods 2,618 ------------- $ 9,350 ============= 6. Property, Plant and Equipment October 25, 1996 Land $ 198 Buildings and improvements 9,615 Machinery, tooling and equipment 49,473 Construction in progress 1,228 ------------- 60,514 Less- accumulated depreciation and reserves (43,875) ------------- $ 16,639 ============= 7. Accrued Expenses October 25, 1996 Payroll and employee related $ 2,176 Property and other taxes 760 Niles closure costs-current portion 1,598 Other 777 ------------- $ 5,311 ============= 8. UTC Affiliate Financing UTAC has a revolving line of credit with and participates in a world-wide cash netting system with UTC affiliates. The revolving line of credit payable approximated $16,893 at October 25, 1996 and has been shown as UTC affiliate financing in the accompanying Combined balance sheet. Interest is charged on outstanding borrowings utilizing a LIBOR-based rate which was 6.25% at October 25, 1996. Interest expense relating to this facility approximated $741 for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996 and is settled monthly. The principal amount has been paid subsequent to October 25, 1996. 9. Income Taxes Pre-tax income from North American operations approximated $4,899 and pre-tax loss from UTAC operations approximated $1,923 for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996. The provision for income taxes comprises the following: Period ended October 25, 1996 Current tax expense U.S. federal $ 3,133 U.S. state and local 215 ------------- 3,348 ------------- Deferred tax expense U.S. federal (1,285) ------------- Provision for income taxes $ 2,063 ============= 9. Income Taxes (continued) A reconciliation of income taxes determined using the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% to actual income taxes provided is as follows: Period ended October 25, 1996 Income before provision for income taxes $ 2,976 ------------- Taxes at U.S. federal statutory rate 1,042 Foreign losses for which no benefit has been recorded 673 Non-deductible items 126 State income taxes 222 ------------- $ 2,063 ============= Deferred tax assets are comprised of the following: October 25, 1996 Inventory valuation $ 482 Depreciation and fixed asset related reserves 1,938 Plant closure reserves 788 Environmental reserves 702 Other 541 ------------- $ 4,451 ============= Net operating loss carryforwards relating to UTAC were approximately $4,900 at October 25, 1996. A valuation allowance has been provided with respect to the entire amount of the tax benefits relating to the UTAC loss carryforwards as management does not believe that the benefits will be realized. 10. Niles Plant Closure Charges During 1995, the Business accrued approximately $3,800 for expected costs of closure of the Niles, Michigan facility. During the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996, $138 of the reserve was utilized and an additional $1,200 was recorded based on management's revised estimates of the recoverability of fixed assets and facility carrying costs. The reserve amounts included approximately $2,424 to reduce fixed assets to their estimated recoverable values; $1,108 for severance and other employee-related costs; and $1,468 for carrying and other costs prior to sale of the facility. As of October 25, 1996, $1,598 was included in current accrued liabilities and $853 was included in long-term accrued liabilities in the combined balance sheet. Amounts relating to fixed asset reserves have been reflected as a reduction of property, plant and equipment at October 25, 1996. 11. Employee Benefits Pension UTC sponsors various pension arrangements covering substantially all domestic and foreign employees of the Business. Plan benefits are generally formula based with recognition of years of service and compensation levels. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, Breed will not assume obligations with respect to UTC United States pension plans. For purposes of the combined financial statements, the Business is considered to be a participant in multiemployer plans for U.S. operations and a single employer plan with respect to UTAC. As such, net pension expense has been recognized for costs of the U.S. plans allocated to the Business. Such costs approximated $78 for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996 and are considered settled as accrued through the Parent company investment account. The UTAC plan is a defined benefit plan requiring employee contributions. Investments are held by insurance companies. A discount rate of 8.5% and a salary increase rate of 5.5% were utilized in the valuation. Net periodic pension cost for the fiscal year covering the period from December 1, 1995 through November 30, 1996 and the funded status at November 30, 1995 are as follows: Funded Status at November 30, 1995 Accumulated benefit obligation $ 9,583 Impact of projected future compensation levels 435 ----------- Projected benefit obligation 10,018 Market value of plan assets 9,701 ----------- (317) Unrecognized net transition asset (366) Unrecognized net loss 413 ----------- Accrued pension expense $ (270) =========== Net Periodic Pension Cost Service cost $ 460 Interest cost 866 Expected return plan assets (924) Amortization of net transition asset (47) Estimated employee contributions (252) ----------- Net periodic pension cost $ 103 =========== 11. Employee Benefits (continued) Postretirement benefits other than pensions UTC sponsors defined benefit postretirement plans that provide medical, dental and life insurance benefits for certain eligible retirees and dependents. For purposes of these combined financial statements, the Business is considered to have participated in a multiemployer postretirement plan as defined in Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106. For the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1995, expenses related to these programs charged to the Business approximated $319. These charges are settled currently through the Parent company investment account. 12. Commitments and Contingencies Leases During 1995, UTAC entered into two operating leases for certain tooling relating to Rover programs with quarterly payments approximating $60,000 through 1998. In conjunction with these agreements, UTAC entered into two tooling usage contracts with Rover, whereby Rover provides quarterly payments to UTAC in amounts equal to the payments on the leases noted above. In addition, the Business is party to leases for certain warehousing space. Rent expense was $198 and $110 for the tooling and warehouse space, respectively, for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996. At October 25, 1996, minimum lease commitments on long-term leases are as follows: 1996 (remaining 2 months)- $73; 1997- $310; and 1998- $181. Environmental The operations of the Business are subject to environmental regulation by federal, state and local authorities in the United States and regulatory authorities with jurisdiction over its foreign operations. It is the policy of the Business to accrue environmental investigatory and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, the minimum is accrued. The measurement of the liability is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual site and takes into account factors such as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations, and prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites. As of October 25, 1996, long-term accrued liabilities includes $2,006, including approximately $1,500 accrued during the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996, relating to estimated environmental remediation costs. While management cannot predict the total costs of these actions with certainty, based on known information management does not believe the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on cash flows, results of operations or financial position of the Business. General In addition to environmental exposures, there are pending actions incident to the normal course of business. While it is possible that the outcome of these matters may differ from the recorded liability, management believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the cash flows, results of operations or financial position of the Business. 13. Geographic Information Sales and operating loss relating to UTAC United Kingdom activities for the period from January 1, 1996 through October 25, 1996 approximated $32,376 and $1,182, respectively. Identifiable assets relating to UTAC were approximately $16,800 at October 25, 1996. BREED Technologies, Inc. Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements On October 25, 1996, BREED Technologies, Inc. (the Company) acquired the North American Steering Wheels Operations of United Technologies and 100% of the outstanding shares of United Technologies Automotive Clifford Limited (collectively United Steering Systems, Inc. or USS), as reported in the Company's Form 8-K filed on November 9, 1996. The aggregate purchase price was $159,500,000, including assumed liabilities of $36,418,000, and is subject to adjustments as provided in the agreements. The funds used by the Company to pay the aggregate purchase price were obtained from borrowings under the Company's Revolving Credit Agreements. The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present the condensed historical financial statements of the Company and USS, pro forma adjustments and the pro forma results under the purchase method of accounting. The historical financial information of the Company was prepared from audited and unaudited financial statements previously filed with the Commission. The historical combined information for USS was prepared from the unaudited books and records of USS for the year ended June 30, 1996, and the unaudited books and records of USS for the three-month period ended September 30, 1996. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet is based upon the historical financial position of the Company at September 30, 1996 and USS at October 25, 1996, and reflects pro forma acquisition adjustments as if the acquisition had occurred on September 30, 1996. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of earnings for the year ended June 30, 1996 is based upon the historical statement of earnings of the Company for its year ended June 30, 1996 and the historical statement of earnings of the USS for the year ended June 30, 1996. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of earnings for the three months ended September 30, 1996 is based upon the historical statement of earnings of the Company and USS for the three-month period ended September 30, 1996. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of earnings for the year ended June 30, 1996 and for the three months ended September 30, 1996 give effect to the acquisition as though it had occurred on July 1, 1995 and July 1, 1996, respectively. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in connection with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1996. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results that would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated on the dates indicated, nor of the results that may be obtained in the future.
