See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 7 8 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial information has been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore does not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's fiscal year is the 52 or 53 week period ending on the Sunday closest to December 31. For purposes of presentation, the Company has indicated its accounting quarter and year end as March 31 and December 31, respectively. In the opinion of management, the financial information for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, and at March 31, 1996 reflects all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation thereof. During 1995, the Company discontinued its end-of-life programs, a segment of the business, through a liquidation of remaining operations. Prior period financial results have been restated to reflect the discontinuance of this segment of the Company. NOTE 2 - INCOME PER SHARE Net income per share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during each period presented. Common equivalent shares consist of stock options and warrants, which were computed using the treasury stock method. NOTE 3 - ACQUISITION OF REMAINING INTEREST IN MODCOMP/CERPLEX L.P. In April 1996, the Company acquired the remaining 51% interest in Modcomp/Cerplex L.P. for $2.8 million. Assuming the acquisition occurred at the beginning of 1996, the pro forma results of operations of the Company would have been as follows:

See "Item 5. Other Information (b) Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data." 8 9 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This report contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed under "Item 5. Other Information (a) Risk Factors." OVERVIEW The Company is an independent provider of electronic parts repair and logistics services worldwide. During the third quarter of 1995, the Board of Directors approved a Liquidation Plan to discontinue its end-of-life programs, a segment of the Company, through liquidation of these operations. Net sales of end-of life programs contributed 26% and 71% of consolidated net sales during 1994 and 1993, respectively. In its end-of-life programs, the Company assumed all responsibilities for the support and repair of products which are no longer manufactured or are being phased out of manufacturing. Generally, when the Company undertook an end-of-life program, it acquired substantially all of the unique test equipment, repair equipment and inventories needed to support the program. Services provided by the Company under end-of-life programs include repair, provision of spare parts for a defined period of time, plant return and parts reclamation, engineering and document control, warehousing, and vendor certification and management. The Company no longer undertakes these programs. The Company's continuing operations are focused on depot repair, logistics services, technical help desk, training, remanufacturing and remarketing, and spare parts services. The liquidation of end-of-life programs has been accounted for as discontinued operations and prior period financial statements have been restated to reflect the discontinuance of this segment of the business. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Continuing Operations The following table sets forth items from the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations as a percentage of net sales.
For the Three Month Period Ended March 31 1996 1995 --------- ----- Net sales 100.0 % 100.0% Cost of sales 83.0 82.2 ----- ----- Gross margin 17.0 17.8 Selling, general and administrative 17.3 12.0 ----- ----- Operating income (loss) (.3)% 5.8% ===== =====
Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 increased $6.8 million or 20.1% to $40.8 million over the net sales for the corresponding quarter of 1995. The increase in net sales for the first quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995 is primarily attributed to the acquisition of Peripheral Computer Support, Inc. ("PCS") in May 1995. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales declined slightly to 17.0% during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from 17.8% during the quarter ended March 31, 1995. The gross profit ratio during the quarter 9 10 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. ended March 31, 1996 was adversely affected primarily by the performance on certain contracts that the Company is currently winding down and the impact of facility consolidations in California. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 17.3% during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from 12.0% during the quarter ended March 31, 1995. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales is primarily due to increased corporate overhead related to the Company's expanded senior management staff and increased selling, general and administrative expenses related to PCS. Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations
For the Three Month Period Ended March 31 1996 1995 ------- -------- Operating income (loss) $ (126) $ 1,965 Equity in earnings of joint venture 357 515 Interest expense, net (1,511) (1,224) ------- ------- Income (loss) from continuing operations $(1,280) $ 1,256 ======= =======
The Company recorded an operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 primarily as a result of the adverse impact of the performance on certain contracts that the Company is currently winding down, the impact of facility consolidations in California and increased selling, general and administrative expenses. Equity in earnings of joint venture relates to the Company's ownership interest in Modcomp/Cerplex L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("Modcomp/Cerplex"). The decrease in the Company's share of earnings of Modcomp/Cerplex is primarily due to lower profit margins on systems sales as a result of a shift in product mix from proprietary systems to open, UNIX-based systems. Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 increased $287,000 to $1.5 million as a result of increased average borrowings under the Company's credit facilities and a higher weighted average interest rate. Average borrowings outstanding were $65.9 during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to $55.9 during the quarter ended March 31, 1995. The effective interest rate on credit facilities increased to 9.2% during the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from 8.8% during the quarter ended March 31, 1995. Income Taxes Income tax expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 is primarily related to income taxes on earnings of the Company's operations in Europe. The Company has not recorded an income benefit related to operating losses in the United States, and, accordingly, a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets has continued to be maintained due to uncertainties surrounding their realization. The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 was 37%. Discontinued Operations During 1995, the Company discontinued its end-of-life programs, a segment of the business, through a liquidation of remaining operations. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, net sales of discontinued operations were $3.8 million. No gain or loss on discontinued operations was recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 1996. 10 11 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES On October 12, 1994, the Company obtained a $60 million revolving line of credit ("Credit Facility") from a group of banks led by Wells Fargo Bank. The Credit Facility replaced the Company's $10 million credit line with CoastFed Business Credit Corp. ("CoastFed"). The Company used $6.1 million to retire the CoastFed line and $11.0 million to retire an outstanding note payable to IBM. The Credit Facility matures in October 1997 and generally provides for borrowings based on the Company continuing to meet certain financial covenants for leverage, cash flow, tangible net worth and liquidity ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate on the Credit Facility as of December 31, 1995 was 8.81% based upon a blend of LIBOR and prime lending rates. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by all of the Company's assets, including the assets and stock of the Company's subsidiaries. At December 31, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with the contractual obligations and financial covenants of the Credit Agreement. The financial covenants which the Company was not in compliance were liquidity ratio, minimum cash flow coverage, maximum leverage ratio, minimum net worth, and minimum past due accounts receivable. In April 1996, the Company entered into an amended Credit Agreement that reduces the maximum amount available under the line of credit from $60 million to $48 million and requires reductions in commitments to $47 million at September 30, 1996, $45 million at December 31, 1996, and $43 million at March 15, 1997. The interest rate on the Credit Facility has been increased to prime plus 2.25% (or prime plus 4% if certain conditions of the amended Credit Agreement are not met) and maturity date has been accelerated from October 1997 to March 31, 1997. In consideration for the amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Company was required to provide the lenders warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock at $6 per share and pay certain commitment fees and out-of-pocket expenses. The amended Credit Agreement includes revised covenants for liquidity, leverage, net worth, profitability and collateral, and requires additional reductions in outstanding borrowings (generally determined on the basis of percentage of proceeds) in the event of the sale of assets and issuance of additional equity or certain excess cash flow as such terms are defined in the amended Credit Agreement. Management believes it will remain in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the amended Credit Agreement throughout 1996. In November 1993, the Company sold $17.3 million in principal amount of its Series A 9.0% (changed to 9.5% in October 1994) Senior Subordinated Notes and $5.7 million in principal amount of its Series B 9.0% Senior Subordinated Notes with 920,000 detachable warrants to purchase common stock. The detachable warrants were issued at the option price of $.01 per share resulting in an original issue discount of $3.6 million on the Series B 9.0% Senior Subordinated Notes. The Series A Senior Subordinated Notes accrued interest at the rate of 9.5% per annum, payable quarterly, with principal amount thereof payable in three equal installments on November 9, in the years 1999, 2000 and 2001. The Company is subject to certain financial and other covenants which include restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt, payment of any dividends and certain other cash disbursements as well as the maintenance of certain financial ratios as defined in the Note Purchase Agreements pursuant to which the Senior Subordinated Notes were sold to the Company. At December 31, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with the contractual obligations and financial covenants of the Note Purchase Agreements. The financial covenants which the Company was not in compliance were maximum leverage ratio, minimum net worth and minimum fixed charge ratio. In April 1996, the Company entered into an amendment to the Note Purchase Agreements that revised the covenants for maximum leverage, net worth and fixed charges. In consideration for the amendment to the Note Purchase Agreements, the Company was required to provide the Senior Note Holders warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at $6 per share. The warrants issued pursuant 11 12 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. to the amended Note Purchase Agreements, and the amended Credit Agreement discussed above, will be recorded at fair market value with such amount amortized as a charge against income over the period of the warrants. The Company's primary sources for liquidity is cash flow from operations and its ability to reduce working capital requirements. The Company does not have available capacity under its Credit Agreements and is required to reduce borrowings during 1996 and repay the remaining borrowings at March 1997. Accordingly, additional funds will be needed to finance the Company's operations from the sale of assets, reduction in working capital, and/or obtaining additional equity or long-term debt. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available when needed or, if available, that the terms of such transactions will not adversely affect the Company's results of operations. Effective April 1, 1996, the Company sold its contract manufacturing operations in Tustin, CA for $3.5 million cash and approximately $2.0 million in restricted stock. The gain on sale of the operations is approximately $450,000. In April 1996, the Company acquired the remaining 51% interest in Modcomp/Cerplex for $2.8 million utilizing the Company's share of cash generated from the joint venture since its inception on December 1, 1994. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, either the Company or its subsidiaries is committed to pay BT L1.8 million (approximately $2.9 million as of March 31, 1996) in 1999 or earlier if certain sales volumes are reached and to pay a former shareholder of PCS up to $1.0 million over the next two years. The Company has entered into a memorandum of understanding and has entered into negotiations with Rank/Xerox to acquire that company's repair and refurbishment operations located in the northern region of France, near Lille. During 1995, Rank/Xerox performed value added services, through its workforce of approximately 670 technicians and support personnel, of approximately $50 million. The acquisition of this facility requires approximately $5.0 million in cash that the Company must obtain to complete the transaction. The transaction is subject to due diligence, definitive agreements, approval of the Company's lenders, and approval of the Board of Directors. There can be no assurance that this transaction will be completed. 12 13 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS None. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES None. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES During portions of 1995 and the beginning of 1996, the Company was in default under its senior Credit Agreement. The Company has renegotiated and amended such agreement to cure such defaults. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" herein for a more detailed discussion. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION (A) RISK FACTORS Losses and Accumulated Deficit. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company reported a net loss of $1.6 million and $39.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 1996, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $48.6 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will operate profitably in the future. Continued losses could materially and adversely affect the Company's business and the value of, and the market for, the Company's equity securities. Future Capital Needs; Uncertainty of Additional Financing. The Company's ability to maintain its current revenue base and to grow its business is dependent on the availability of adequate capital. Without sufficient capital, the Company's growth may be limited. During portions of 1995 and the beginning of 1996, the Company was in default under its senior credit agreement and subordinated note agreements. While the Company has renegotiated such agreements, the terms of the senior credit facility have resulted in a reduced borrowing base which will be further reduced over the next twelve months and the Company currently has minimal borrowing ability under such facility. The Company is required to use a portion of cash generated from operations, from sales of assets and from sales of equity securities to further reduce its borrowing base under the senior credit facility. As a result, the Company currently has limited capital. In addition, the terms of such agreements restrict the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness and could adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain additional financing. General market conditions and the Company's future performance (including its ability to generate profits and positive cash flow) will also impact the Company's financial resources. The failure of the Company to obtain additional capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and future prospects. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to maintain its current credit facilities or that additional financing will be available or, if available, will be on acceptable terms. 13 14 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. Risk of Excess and Unusable Inventory. The Company is required to maintain inventories to support its customers. At the end of 1995, inventory constituted approximately 27% of the Company's assets. Any decrease in the demand for the Company's repair services could result in a substantial portion of the Company's inventory becoming excess, obsolete or otherwise unusable, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. During both 1994 and 1995, the Company wrote down a significant amount of inventory. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be required to write down significant amounts of its inventory in the future. Dependence on Key Customers. During 1995, BT, IBM, Digital Equipment Corporation and SpectraVision accounted for approximately 23%, 11%, 7% and 7%, respectively, of continuing operations. During 1995, IBM and SpectraVision significantly decreased orders for certain programs which materially and adversely affected the Company and its results of operations. SpectraVision is currently operating under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, and a subsidiary of the Company is performing services for SpectraVision under a contract which, if and when SpectraVision emerges from bankruptcy, may be assumed or rejected at the election of SpectraVision. A significant portion of the Company's net sales attributable to IBM in 1995 were from discontinued operations, and, as such, the Company expects net sales attributable to IBM to continue to account for a decreasing percentage of the Company's net sales. Also, IBM has informed the Company that it has changed its strategy for spare parts and as a result will not renew an agreement with the Company for such services which expires in September of 1996. Based on discussions with IBM representatives, however, the Company believes that the agreement, which accounted for approximately 8% of the Company's 1995 net sales from continuing operations, will be replaced with other programs of the Company. There can be no assurance that major customers of the Company will not terminate any or all of their arrangements with the Company; significantly change, reduce or delay the amount of services ordered from the Company; or significantly change the terms upon which the Company and these customers do business. Any such termination, change, reduction or delay could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Dependence on Customers in the Electronics Industry. The Company is dependent upon the continued growth, viability and financial stability of its customers and potential customers in the electronics industry, particularly the computer industry. The computer industry has been characterized by rapid technological change, compressed product life cycles and pricing and margin pressures. Improvements in technology and quality of hardware products or other factors may result in a reduced need for parts and systems repairs in the future which may adversely affect the Company's business. The factors affecting segments of the electronics industry in general, and the Company's OEM customers in particular, could have an adverse effect on the Company's business. During 1995, several of the Company's customers experienced severe financial difficulty resulting in significant losses to the Company as a result of write downs of receivables and other assets. There can be no assurance that existing customers or future customers will not experience financial difficulty, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Reliance on Short-Term Purchase Orders. The Company's customer contracts are typically subject to termination on short notice at the customer's discretion and purchase orders under such contracts typically only cover services over a 90-day period. The termination of any material contracts or any substantial decrease in the orders received from major customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Competition. The Company competes with the in-house repair centers of OEMs and TPMs for repair services. There is no assurance that these entities will choose to outsource their repair needs. In certain instances, these entities compete directly with the Company for the services of unrelated OEMs and TPMs. In addition to competing with OEMs and TPMs, the Company also competes for depot repair 14 15 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. business with a small number of independent organizations similar in size to the Company and a large number of smaller companies. Many of the companies with which the Company competes have significantly greater financial resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively in its target markets. Management of Growth. The Company's growth has placed, and will continue to place, a strain on the Company's managerial, operational and financial resources. These resources may be further strained by the geographically dispersed operations of the Company and the future addition of acquired depots or businesses, if any. The Company's ability to manage growth effectively will require it to continue to improve its operational, financial and management information systems; to develop the management skills of its managers and supervisors; and to train, motivate and effectively manage its employees. The Company's failure to effectively manage growth, including acquired operations, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. Expansion of International Sales. During 1995, approximately 25% of the Company's business was in Europe and the Company intends to continue to expand its European operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully market, sell and deliver its products and services in these markets. In addition to the uncertainty as to the Company's ability to expand its international presence, there are certain risks inherent in doing business on an international level, such as unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, export restrictions, tariffs and other trade barriers, difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations, longer payment cycles, problems in collecting accounts receivable, political instability, fluctuations in currency exchange rates and potentially adverse tax consequences, which could adversely impact the success of the Company's international operations. There can be no assurance that one or more of such factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's international operations and, consequently, on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Dependence on Acquisition Strategy. Certain of the Company's repair programs resulted in decreasing net sales as the installed base of the particular products under such programs decreases over time. An important component of the Company's strategy to maintain its revenue and to grow its business has been the acquisition of repair programs and complementary businesses. Competition for these types of transactions is likely to intensify. The Company's ability to effect any significant transactions requiring capital will be limited by the terms of the Company's senior credit facility. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to acquire additional repair programs or complementary businesses or, if acquired, that such operations will prove to be profitable. Discontinued Operations; Change in Strategy. In September 1995, Cerplex adopted a plan to discontinue its end-of-life programs, a line of business which historically generated a significant percentage of the Company's total sales, but which in recent years experienced declining sales. Net sales from end-of-life programs declined from approximately $56 million in 1993 to $33 million in 1994 to $20 million in 1995. The net loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 was $17.4 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will not incur additional losses from these operations. In connection with discontinuing its end-of-life business, the Company changed certain elements of its business strategy and is undergoing changes in management and operations, is developing a direct sales force and terminating the majority of its outside sales representatives, is reducing its emphasis on inventory acquisitions and focusing on targeted customers in specific industries. While the Company believes such changes will enhance the Company's opportunities, there can be no assurance that such changes will positively impact the Company's business and results of operations in the short or long term. 15 16 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC. Risk Associated with the Ability of Existing Stockholders to Control the Company. As of December 31, 1995, the officers, directors, principal stockholders and their affiliates owned approximately 52.6% of the outstanding Common Stock. Although there are currently no voting agreements or similar arrangements among such stockholders, if they were to act in concert, they would be able to elect a majority of the Company's directors, to determine the outcome of most corporate actions requiring stockholder approval and otherwise to control the business affairs of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company has the authority under the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation to issue shares of the Company's authorized Preferred Stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any unissued shares of Preferred Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock may adversely affect the voting and dividend rights, rights upon liquidation and other rights of the holders of Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock and the control by existing stockholders, if they were to act in concert, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. Dependence on Key Personnel. The Company's continued success depends, to a large extent, upon the efforts and abilities of key managerial employees, particularly the Company's executive officers. Competition for qualified management personnel in the industry is intense. The loss of services of certain of these key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. No Assurance of Public Market for Common Stock; Possible Volatility of Stock Price. Prior to the Company's initial public offering, there was no public market for the Common Stock, and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will be sustained. The trading price of the Common Stock has been, and in the future could be, subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly operating results, the gain or loss of significant contracts, changes in management or new products or services by the Company or its competitors, general trends in the industry and other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have particularly affected the market price for many companies in similar industries and which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock. The Company recently received notice from the NASD that, due to its accumulated deficit, it no longer meets the criteria for continued listing on the NASDAQ National Market. The Company has received a notification providing it with a waiver until May 15, 1996, after which official action to remove the Company from listing may occur if the Company's net tangible assets is not at least $1 million by such date. If the Company is not able to maintain its National Market status, it could have a material adverse effect on the market price of, and the trading market for, the Company's Common Stock. 16 17 THE CERPLEX GROUP, INC.
