NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share data)
June 30, 2014
1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Basis of Consolidation
Watsco, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Watsco,” which may be referred to as “we”, “us”or “our”) was incorporated in Florida in 1956 and is the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies (“HVAC/R”) in the HVAC/R distribution industry. The accompanying June 30, 2014 interim condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, but we believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included herein. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this report include the accounts of Watsco, all of its wholly owned subsidiaries and the accounts of three joint ventures with Carrier Corporation (“Carrier”), in each of which Watsco maintains a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The results of operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. Sales of residential central air conditioners, heating equipment and parts and supplies are seasonal. Furthermore, results of operations can be impacted favorably or unfavorably based on weather patterns during summer and winter selling seasons. Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is typically highest in the second and third quarters, and demand for heating equipment is usually highest in the fourth quarter. Demand related to the new construction market is fairly consistent during the year, subject to weather and economic conditions, including their effect on the number of housing completions.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Significant estimates include valuation reserves for accounts receivable, inventories and income taxes, reserves related to self-insurance programs and the valuation of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. While we believe that these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from such estimates.
New Accounting Standards
Presentation of Unrecognized Tax Benefits
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that requires the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward rather than as a liability when the uncertain tax position would reduce the net operating loss under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction and the entity intends to use the deferred tax asset for that purpose. This guidance is effective prospectively for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued a standard on revenue recognition that provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The core principle is that a company will recognize revenue to reflect the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. This standard is effective for our interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption. We will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2017, and are currently evaluating the impact on our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.

Diluted earnings per share for our Common stock assumes the conversion of all of our Class B common stock into Common stock as of the beginning of the fiscal year; therefore, no allocation of earnings to Class B common stock is required. At June 30, 2014 and 2013, our outstanding Class B common stock was convertible into 2,710,315 and 2,704,858 shares of our Common stock, respectively.

4. | DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
We routinely use certain derivative instruments to hedge foreign currency exposure. Although these derivatives were not designated as hedges and/or did not qualify for hedge accounting, they were effective economic hedges for the periods presented. The changes in fair values of economic hedges are recognized in earnings. During 2014 and 2013, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts to offset the earnings impact that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations would otherwise have had on certain monetary liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies. The changes in fair values of foreign currency forward contracts were (losses) gains of $(1,631) and $1,507 for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The changes in fair values of foreign currency forward contracts were (losses) gains of $(1,555) and $1,528 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These amounts are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income. The total notional value of our foreign currency exchange contracts as of June 30, 2014 was $59,500, and such contracts have varying terms expiring through October 2014. See Note 5.

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for these assets and liabilities, as well as the level of input used to measure fair value:
Available-for-sale securities – the investments are exchange-traded equity securities. Fair values for these investments are based on closing stock prices from active markets and are therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Derivative financial instruments – the derivatives are foreign currency forward contracts. Fair value is based on observable market inputs, such as forward rates in active markets; therefore, we classify the derivatives within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
There were no transfers in or out of Level 1 and Level 2 during the six months ended June 30, 2014.
6. | DEBT |
On June 25, 2014, we entered into an amendment to our unsecured, syndicated revolving credit agreement, which increased the borrowing capacity from $500,000 to $600,000, extended the maturity date from July 1, 2018 to July 1, 2019, increased the swingline subfacility from $65,000 to $90,000 and modified certain definitions. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $348,787 and $230,044 was outstanding under the revolving credit agreement, respectively. The revolving credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to consolidated leverage and interest coverage ratios, and other customary restrictions. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants at June 30, 2014.
7. | SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY |
Common Stock Dividends

8. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Litigation, Claims and Assessments
We are involved in litigation incidental to the operation of our business. We vigorously defend all matters in which we or our subsidiaries are named defendants and, for insurable losses, maintain significant levels of insurance to protect against adverse judgments, claims or assessments that may affect us. Although the adequacy of existing insurance coverage and the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based on the current information available, we do not believe the ultimate liability associated with any known claims or litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Self-Insurance
Self-insurance reserves are maintained relative to company-wide casualty insurance and health benefit programs. The level of exposure from catastrophic events is limited by the purchase of stop-loss and aggregate liability reinsurance coverage. When estimating the self-insurance liabilities and related reserves, management considers a number of factors, which include historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and valuations provided by independent third-party actuaries. Management reviews its assumptions with its independent third-party actuaries to evaluate whether the self-insurance reserves are adequate. If actual claims or adverse development of loss reserves occur and exceed these estimates, additional reserves may be required. Reserves in the amounts of $5,247 and $5,582 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, were established related to such programs and are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated unaudited balance sheets.
9. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
Purchases from Carrier and its affiliates comprised 59% and 57% of all inventory purchases for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Purchases from Carrier and its affiliates comprised 60% and 56% of all inventory purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, approximately $108,000 and $53,000, respectively, was payable to Carrier and its affiliates, net of receivables. Our joint ventures with Carrier also sell HVAC products to Carrier and its affiliates. Revenues in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 included $11,128, $8,693, $17,663 and $13,988, respectively, of sales to Carrier and its affiliates. We believe these transactions are conducted at arm’s-length in the ordinary course of business.

Company Overview
Watsco, Inc. was incorporated in Florida in 1956, and, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “Watsco,” or “we”, “us” or “our”) is the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies (“HVAC/R”) in the HVAC/R distribution industry. At June 30, 2014, we operated from 570 locations in 38 U.S. states, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico with additional market coverage on an export basis to Latin America and the Caribbean.
12 of 19
Table of Contents
Revenues primarily consist of sales of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies. Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of selling expenses, the largest components of which are salaries, commissions and marketing expenses that are variable and correlate to changes in sales. Other significant selling, general and administrative expenses relate to the operation of warehouse facilities, including a fleet of trucks and forklifts and facility rent, which are payable mostly under non-cancelable operating leases.
Sales of residential central air conditioners, heating equipment and parts and supplies are seasonal. Furthermore, results of operations can be impacted favorably or unfavorably based on weather patterns, primarily during the summer and winter selling seasons. Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is typically highest in the second and third quarters, and demand for heating equipment is usually highest in the fourth quarter. Demand related to the new construction market is fairly consistent during the year, subject to weather and economic conditions, including their effect on the number of housing completions.
Joint Ventures with Carrier Corporation
In 2009, we formed a joint venture with Carrier Corporation (“Carrier”), which we refer to as Carrier Enterprise I, in which Carrier contributed 95 of its company-owned locations in 13 Sun Belt states and Puerto Rico and its export division in Miami, Florida, and we contributed 15 locations that distributed Carrier products. In July 2012, we exercised our option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which increased our ownership interest to 70%; and, on July 1, 2014, we exercised our option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which increased our controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise I to 80%. Neither we nor Carrier has any remaining options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise I, or any of our other joint ventures with Carrier.
In 2011, we formed a second joint venture with Carrier and completed two additional transactions. In April 2011, Carrier contributed 28 of its company-owned locations in eight Northeast U.S. states, and we contributed 14 locations in the Northeast U.S. In July 2011, we purchased Carrier’s distribution operations in Mexico, which included seven locations. Collectively, the Northeast locations and the Mexico operations are referred to as Carrier Enterprise II. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise II, and Carrier has a 40% noncontrolling interest.
In 2012, we formed a third joint venture, which we refer to as Carrier Enterprise III, with UTC Canada Corporation, referred to as UTC Canada, an affiliate of Carrier. Carrier contributed 35 of its company-owned locations in Canada to Carrier Enterprise III. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III, and UTC Canada has a 40% noncontrolling interest.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, management reevaluates its judgments and estimates, which are based on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Our critical accounting policies are included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed on February 27, 2014. We believe that there have been no significant changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
New Accounting Standards

Second Quarter 2014 Compared to Second Quarter 2013
Revenues
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased $49.7 million, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2013, including $0.5 million from locations opened during the preceding 12 months, partially offset by $1.2 million from closed locations. On a same-store basis, revenues increased $50.4 million, or 5%, as compared to the same period in 2013, reflecting a 6% increase in sales of HVAC equipment (7% increase in residential HVAC equipment and a 1% increase in commercial HVAC equipment), a 2% increase in sales of other HVAC products and a 5% increase in sales of commercial refrigeration products. The increase in same-store revenues is primarily due to higher demand for the replacement of residential HVAC equipment. Sales of residential HVAC equipment also benefited from an improved sales mix of higher-efficiency air conditioning and heating systems, which sell at higher unit prices.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased $12.6 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of increased revenues. Gross profit margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 improved 10 basis-points to 23.9% versus 23.8% for the same period in 2013.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased $4.7 million, or 3%, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to increased revenues. On a same-store basis, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3% as compared to the same period in 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 decreased to 14.2% versus 14.4% for the same period in 2013. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to improved leveraging of fixed operating costs as compared to 2013.

Table of Contents
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 decreased $0.4 million, or 26%, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of a decrease in average outstanding borrowings and a lower effective interest rate for the 2014 period as compared to the same period in 2013.
Income Taxes
Income taxes increased to $33.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $30.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and are a composite of the income taxes attributable to our wholly owned operations and investments, and income taxes attributable to the Carrier joint ventures, which are taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rate attributable to us was 36.7% and 37.1% for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to lower state income taxes in 2014 versus 2013 related to income generated by our U.S. subsidiaries.
Net Income Attributable to Watsco, Inc.
Net income attributable to Watsco for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 increased $4.8 million, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues, expanded profit margins and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues, as discussed above.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Revenues
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $98.7 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2013, including $1.1 million from locations opened during the preceding 12 months, partially offset by $2.5 million from closed locations. On a same-store basis, revenues increased $100.1 million, or 5%, as compared to the same period in 2013. Revenues reflect a 7% increase in sales of HVAC equipment (8% increase in residential HVAC equipment and a 1% increase in commercial HVAC equipment), a 3% increase in sales of other HVAC products and a 4% increase in sales of commercial refrigeration products. The increase in same-store revenues is primarily due to higher demand for the replacement of residential HVAC equipment. Sales of residential HVAC equipment also benefited from an improved sales mix of higher-efficiency air conditioning and heating systems, which sell at higher unit prices.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $25.2 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of increased revenues.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $12.3 million, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of increased revenues. On a same-store basis, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 4% as compared to 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased to 16.5% from 16.7% for the same period in 2013. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to improved leveraging of fixed operating costs as compared to 2013.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased $0.6 million, or 21%, compared to the same period in 2013, primarily as a result of a decrease in average outstanding borrowings and a lower effective interest rate in 2014 as compared to 2013.
Income Taxes
Income taxes increased to $43.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $39.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and are a composite of the income taxes attributable to our wholly owned operations and investments and income taxes attributable to the Carrier joint ventures, which are taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rate attributable to us was 36.8% and 37.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to lower state income taxes in 2014 versus 2013 related to income generated by our U.S. subsidiaries.

Net Income Attributable to Watsco, Inc.
Net income attributable to Watsco for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $8.2 million, or 13%, compared to the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues, expanded profit margins and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues, as discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to execute our business strategy and fund operating and investing activities, taking into consideration the seasonal demand for HVAC/R products, which peaks in the months of May through August. Significant factors that could affect our liquidity include the following:
• | cash necessary to fund our business (primarily working capital requirements); |
• | the adequacy of our available bank line of credit; |
• | the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms; |
• | acquisitions, including joint ventures; |
• | dividend payments; |
• | capital expenditures; and |
• | the timing and extent of common stock repurchases. |
Sources and Uses of Cash
We rely on cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under our revolving credit agreement to fund seasonal working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes, including dividend payments, if and as declared by our Board of Directors, capital expenditures, business acquisitions and development of our long-term operating strategies.
At June 30, 2014, we had $16.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, of which, $9.0 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. We believe that our operating cash flows, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under our line of credit will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that our current sources of available funds will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements.
Our access to funds under our line of credit depends on the ability of the syndicate banks to meet their respective funding commitments. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets could adversely affect our ability to draw on our line of credit and may also adversely affect the determination of interest rates, particularly rates based on LIBOR, which is one of the base rates under our line of credit. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets could also result in increased borrowing costs and/or reduced borrowing capacity under our line of credit.
Working Capital
Working capital increased to $960.6 million at June 30, 2014 from $777.6 million at December 31, 2013, reflecting higher levels of accounts receivable and inventories, primarily due to the seasonality of our business.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:
2014 | 2013 | Change | ||||||||||
Cash flows used in operating activities | $ | (65.2 | ) | $ | (76.9 | ) | $ | 11.7 | ||||
Cash flows used in investing activities | $ | (5.6 | ) | $ | (6.8 | ) | $ | 1.2 | ||||
Cash flows provided by financing activities | $ | 68.2 | $ | 36.3 | $ | 31.9 |
The individual items contributing to cash flow changes for the periods presented are detailed in the condensed consolidated unaudited statements of cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Operating Activities
The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to higher net income in 2014 as compared to 2013 and the timing of payments for accrued expenses, partially offset by our seasonal buildup of inventory in preparation for the Summer selling season.
Investing Activities
The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was due to lower capital expenditures in 2014 as compared to 2013.
16 of 19
Table of Contents
Financing Activities
The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to higher net borrowings under our revolving credit agreement and a decrease in distributions to the noncontrolling interest in 2014, partially offset by an increase in dividends paid in 2014 as compared to 2013.
Revolving Credit Agreement
We maintain an unsecured, syndicated revolving credit agreement, which we use to fund seasonal working capital needs and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, dividends (if and as declared by our Board of Directors), stock repurchases and issuances of letters of credit. On June 25, 2014, we entered into an amendment to this credit agreement, which increased the borrowing capacity from $500.0 million to $600.0 million, extended the maturity date from July 1, 2018 to July 1, 2019, increased the swingline subfacility from $65.0 million to $90.0 million and modified certain definitions. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $348.8 million and $230.0 million were outstanding under the revolving credit agreement, respectively. The revolving credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to consolidated leverage and interest coverage ratios, and other customary restrictions. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants at June 30, 2014.
Acquisitions
On July 1, 2014, we exercised our second option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, following which we have an 80% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise I. We paid the estimated purchase price of $90.5 million for the exercise of the option in cash, and such amount is subject to adjustment during the 60 days immediately following the date of exercise. Neither we nor Carrier has any remaining options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise I, or any of our other joint ventures with Carrier.
We continually evaluate potential acquisitions and/or joint ventures and routinely hold discussions with a number of acquisition candidates. Should suitable acquisition opportunities arise that would require additional financing, we believe our financial position and earnings history provide a sufficient basis for us to either obtain additional debt financing at competitive rates and on reasonable terms or raise capital through the issuance of equity securities.
Common Stock Dividends
We paid cash dividends of $0.80 and $0.50 per share of Common stock and Class B common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. On July 1, 2014, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.60 per share of Common and Class B common stock that was paid on July 31, 2014 to shareholders of record as of July 15, 2014. Future dividends and/or dividend rate increases will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon such factors as cash flow generated by operations, profitability, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.
Company Share Repurchase Program
In September 1999, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase, at management’s discretion, of up to 7,500,000 shares of common stock in the open market or via private transactions. Shares repurchased under the program are accounted for using the cost method and result in a reduction of shareholders’ equity. No shares were repurchased during the quarters ended June 30, 2014 or 2013. In aggregate, 6,370,913 shares of Common and Class B common stock have been repurchased at a cost of $114.4 million since the inception of the program. At June 30, 2014, there were 1,129,087 shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the program.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”)) that are, among other things, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Senior Vice President (“SVP”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure and appropriate SEC filings.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations and of our internal controls. This results in refinements to processes throughout the Company. However, there were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Information with respect to this item may be found in Note 8 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the caption “Litigation, Claims and Assessments,” which information is incorporated by reference in this Item 1 of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Information about risk factors for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 does not differ materially from that set forth in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
