1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions in Article 10 ofRegulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for a full year. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2010(“Form 10-K”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of February 26, 2010 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in ourForm 10-K.
As used in this Quarterly Report onForm 10-Q (“Report”), unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Steelcase,” “we,” “our,” “Company” and similar references are to Steelcase Inc. and its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. Unless the context otherwise indicates, reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than a calendar year. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
Certain amounts in the prior year’s financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
2. | NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS |
Fair Value Measurements |
In Q4 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued updated guidance to add new requirements regarding fair value disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. It also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. We adopted the new guidance in Q1 2011. See Note 5 for additional information.
Variable Interest Entities |
In Q2 2010, the FASB issued a new accounting statement which changes the consolidation model for variable interest entities. This statement requires companies to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) based on whether the beneficiary (1) has the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We adopted the new guidance in Q1 2011.
Based on this statement, we deconsolidated a variable interest dealer in Q1 2011 which had no effect on net income. In addition, we deconsolidated a variable interest dealer in Q3 2010 under the previous accounting statement. For the year ended February 26, 2010 and the interim periods therein,

3. | EARNINGS PER SHARE |
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period, plus participating securities, which include performance shares and performance units in which the participants have non-forfeitable rights to dividends during the performance period. Diluted earnings per share includes the effects of options and certain performance shares and performance units in which the participants have forfeitable rights to dividends during the performance period. However, for the three months ended May 28, 2010 and May 29, 2009, diluted earnings per share does not reflect the effects of options, performance shares and certain performance units totaling 3.3 million and 3.9 million, respectively, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Foreign currency translation adjustments reflect the impact of the changes in certain foreign currency values (principally the euro, pound sterling and Canadian dollar) relative to the U.S. dollar. As of May 28, 2010, approximately 24% of our assets were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the majority of which were denominated in euros.
5. | FAIR VALUE |
The carrying amounts for many of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable, short-term borrowings and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our short-term investments, foreign exchange forward contracts and long-term investments are measured at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We carry our long-term debt at cost. The fair value of our long-term debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was approximately $305 and $309 as of May 28, 2010 and February 26, 2010, respectively.

We periodically use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of short-term volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) — (Continued)
medical benefits, deferred compensation and supplemental retirement plan obligations. The cash surrender value of our COLI investments exceeds these long-term benefit obligations on a tax-adjusted basis and therefore, to more efficiently manage our balance sheet and liquidity position, beginning in Q1 2011 we consider our variable life COLI policies to be primarily a source of corporate liquidity. As a result of this change, we adjusted the target asset allocation of the investments in the variable life COLI policies to more heavily weight the portfolio to fixed income securities. We continue our intention to utilize our whole life COLI policies as the funding source for post-retirement medical benefits and other employee obligations. We believe the whole life COLI policies, which are with highly-rated insurance companies, represent a stable source for these long-term benefit obligations. These designations do not result in our investments in COLI representing a committed funding source for liquidity or long-term employee benefit obligations. They are subject to claims from creditors, and we can designate them to another purpose at any time.
This change had no impact on the financial statement classification of the net returns in cash surrender value, normal insurance expenses and any death benefit gains (“COLI income”) related to our investments in whole life COLI policies, which are allocated betweenCost of salesandOperating expenseson the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with the costs associated with the long-term employee benefit obligations that the investments in whole life policies are intended to fund. However, beginning in Q1 2011, COLI income related to our investments in variable life COLI policies is recorded inOther income (expense), neton the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with our other investments. The whole life and variable life policies are recorded at their net cash surrender values, as reported by the three issuing insurance companies, whose Standard & Poor’s financial strength ratings range from AA- to AAA.
Following is a summary of the allocation of COLI income for the three months ended May 28, 2010 and May 29, 2009:

8. | INCOME TAXES |
The provision for income taxes for 2011 includes a discrete item of $11.4 to recognize a reduction in deferred tax assets. In Q1 2011, the U.S. enacted significant healthcare reform legislation which changes the tax treatment of the federal subsidies received by employers who provide certain prescription drug benefits for retirees (the “Medicare Part D subsidy”) for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2012. We are required to recognize the impact of the tax law change in the period in which the law is enacted. We had previously recorded deferred tax assets based on the liability for post-retirement benefit obligations related to prescription drug benefits for retirees. As a result of the law change, deferred tax assets were reduced as these obligations will no longer be deductible for purposes of determining taxable income to the extent they are reimbursed by the Medicare Part D subsidy. Excluding this discrete item, income tax expense recorded in Q1 2011 reflects an estimated annual effective tax rate of 36%.

9. | STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN |
In Q1 2011, we awarded a target of 779,000 performance units under the Steelcase Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan to our executive officers. The performance units are earned after a three-year performance period, from 2011 through 2013, based on our total shareholder return relative to a comparison group of companies. The number of shares that may be earned can range from 25% to 200% of the target amount. A number of units equal to 25% of the target level of each award will be earned if the participant remains employed through the end of 2013 or retires, becomes disabled, dies or is terminated without cause, or a change in control occurs during the performance period, whether or not the minimum performance level is achieved. The minimum award will be forfeited if a participant leaves our company for reasons other than retirement, disability, death or termination without cause prior to the end of the performance period. The remainder of the award will be forfeited if a participant leaves our company for reasons other than retirement, disability or death. During the performance period, participants receive a cash dividend equivalent based on the underlying target award equal to the dividends we declare and pay on our Class A Common Stock. The fair value of the performance units awarded during Q1 2011 was calculated on the grant date using the Monte Carlo simulation model with the following assumptions:

11. | RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES |
In Q1 2011, we initiated a formal procedure of discussions with local work councils regarding a project to reorganize our European manufacturing operations on the basis of specialized competencies. The primary drivers of the proposed changes included our continued improvements in manufacturing practices, combined with the need for manufacturing footprint optimization and further cost reductions. We expect to incur approximately $17 of cash restructuring costs in connection with this project, with the majority relating to workforce reductions and some additional costs for manufacturing consolidation and production moves. No restructuring costs were recorded for this project in Q1 2011.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations: |
This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2010. Reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than the calendar year, unless indicated by a specific date. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.
Certain amounts in the prior years’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This item contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of operations, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the company. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation below of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
The non-GAAP financial measures used are: (1) organic revenue growth (decline), which represents the change in revenue over the prior year quarter excluding currency translation effects and the impact of dealer deconsolidations and (2) adjusted operating income (loss), which represents operating income (loss) excluding restructuring costs and the net returns in cash surrender value, normal insurance expenses and any death benefit gains related to our investments in variable life company-owned life insurance policies (“variable life COLI income”). These measures are presented because management uses this information to monitor and evaluate financial results and trends. Therefore, management believes this information is also useful for investors.

Overview
We recorded a net loss of $11.1 in Q1 2011 compared to net income of $0 in Q1 2010. Q1 2011 included an income tax charge of $11.4 resulting from the recently enacted U.S. healthcare reform legislation, which changes the tax treatment of the federal subsidies received by employers who provide certain prescription drug benefits for retirees (the “Medicare Part D subsidy”). In addition, the year-over-year comparison is negatively impacted by results from company-owned life insurance (“COLI”), which generated significantly less income in Q1 2011 compared to Q1 2010, and the reinstatement of employee salaries to 2009 levels after a reduction in 2010. Q1 2011 results were favorably impacted by benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts, lower commodity costs and modest organic revenue growth.
Our operating loss of $1.4 represented an improvement of $3.8 compared to the same period last year, which included $17.2 of variable life COLI income. Variable life COLI income is now reported inOther income (expense), netbeginning in Q1 2011. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. Adjusted operating income increased $20.7 primarily due to benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts and lower commodity costs of approximately $5, partially offset by approximately $3 of higher compensation costs related to the reinstatement of employee salaries to 2009 levels.
Our revenue decreased $3.8 or 0.7% in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year. Organic revenue growth from Q1 2010 to Q1 2011 was $4 or 1%. North America, IDEO, PolyVision, Asia Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and the Coalesse Group delivered organic revenue growth in the quarter. Western Europe reported upper-single digit organic revenue declines, although their order patterns strengthened considerably during Q1 2011.
Cost of sales decreased to 69.9% of revenue in Q1 2011, a 100 basis point improvement compared to Q1 2010, driven largely by benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts. Lower commodity costs provided an additional 90 basis points of improvement. Theyear-over-year comparison is negatively affected by 180 basis points associated with variable life COLI income in the prior year.

Operating expenses increased by $0.9 in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year. The favorable impacts of dealer deconsolidations within the last twelve months and benefits of restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts were offset by variable life COLI income in the prior year of $7.2 and approximately $2 of higher compensation costs related to the reinstatement of employee salaries to 2009 levels.
We recorded restructuring costs of $2.5 in Q1 2011 compared to $2.8 in Q1 2010. Q1 2011 restructuring costs primarily related to several smaller actions initiated in the last six to nine months to consolidate manufacturing facilities. In Q1 2011, we initiated a formal procedure of discussions with local work councils regarding a project to reorganize our European manufacturing operations. No restructuring costs were recorded for this project in Q1 2011. Initial reactions by affected employees included work stoppages and slow-downs, and therefore we initiatedback-up manufacturing plans, all of which increased our costs in Q1 2011. On June 25, 2010, we made significant progress in negotiations with the local work councils, and we estimate that the costs associated with this project will be approximately $17 and that approximately $11 will be recognized in Q2 2011. We anticipate annualized savings from these actions to be $7 to $8 when fully implemented by the end of 2011.
The provision for income taxes for 2011 includes a discrete item of $11.4 to recognize a reduction in deferred tax assets. In Q1 2011, the U.S. enacted significant healthcare reform legislation which changes the tax treatment of the Medicare Part D subsidy for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2012. We are required to recognize the impact of the tax law change in the period in which the law is enacted. We had previously recorded deferred tax assets based on the liability for post-retirement benefit obligations related to prescription drug benefits for retirees. As a result of the law change, deferred tax assets were reduced as these obligations will no longer be deductible for purposes of determining taxable income to the extent they are reimbursed by the Medicare Part D subsidy. Excluding this discrete item, income tax expense recorded in Q1 2011 reflects an estimated annual effective tax rate of 36%.

Operating income in the North America segment decreased by $2.3 in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year, which included $17.0 of variable life COLI income. Adjusted operating income improved by $14.6 in Q1 2011 compared to Q1 2010, primarily driven by:
• | benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts, | |
• | lower commodity costs of approximately $4 and | |
• | organic revenue growth. |
The improvement was partially offset by increased compensation expense of approximately $2 from the reinstatement of salaries to 2009 levels.
North America revenue, which accounted for 54.0% of consolidated revenue in Q1 2011, decreased by $1.2 or 0.4% from the same period last year. Organic revenue growth from Q1 2010 to Q1 2011 was $7 or 2%. Revenue growth is categorized as follows:
• | Vertical markets — Revenue growth was the most significant in Financial Services which compares to very weak prior year results. We also generated double-digit growth in Insurance and Federal Government, along with single digit growth in Healthcare and Education. Sales declined within a small number of vertical markets. The biggest decline was in State and Local Governments where budget constraints continue to impact our revenue in this vertical market. | |
• | Product categories — Revenue growth was led by Seating. Most other product categories, with the exception of Wood, grew modestly compared to the prior year. While Wood revenue declined in the quarter, orders have strengthened since April. | |
• | Contract type — Project business drove much of the sales growth over prior year, along with sales to smaller businesses. |
Cost of sales increased to 71.1% of revenue in Q1 2011, a 50 basis point deterioration compared to Q1 2010. Theyear-over-year comparison is negatively affected by 340 basis points associated with variable life COLI income in the prior year. Excluding the impact of variable life COLI income, cost of sales decreased by 290 basis points. The improvement was mainly driven by:
• | benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts, | |
• | lower commodity costs, which favorably impacted cost of sales by approximately 120 basis points, |

• | higher fixed cost absorption related to organic revenue growth and | |
• | improved product mix. |
Operating expenses increased by $0.6 in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year. The favorable impacts of dealer deconsolidations within the last twelve months and benefits of restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts were offset by variable life COLI income in the prior year of $7.0 and approximately $2 of higher compensation costs related to the reinstatement of employee salaries to 2009 levels.
Restructuring costs of $1.4 incurred in Q1 2011 primarily related to the consolidation of manufacturing facilities.

The operating loss in the International segment increased by $3.5 in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year. The decline in profitability was primarily due to a decline in revenue across Western Europe.
International revenue, which accounted for 26.1% of consolidated revenue in Q1 2011, decreased by $10.5 or 6.9% from the same period last year. The revenue decline was driven by lower demand in Western Europe due to the continuation of the economic recession in those markets. This was partially offset by improvements in emerging markets, including the Asia Pacific region, Latin America and the Middle East. It appears that Western Europe may be reaching the bottom of the downturn, as order patterns strengthened during Q1 2011, which, along with very strong orders in most of the remaining markets, resulted in a quarter end backlog for total International that was significantly higher compared to the prior year.
Cost of sales increased to 72.6% of revenue in Q1 2011, a 150 basis point deterioration compared to Q1 2010. The deterioration was primarily due to lower fixed cost absorption related to lower volume and disruption costs related to recently initiated restructuring activities, partially offset by benefits from prior restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts and approximately 80 basis points related to lower commodity costs.
Operating expenses decreased by $1.7 in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year primarily due to benefits from prior restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts.

Our Other category includes the Coalesse Group, PolyVision and IDEO. The Other category reported operating income of $4.2 in Q1 2011 compared to an operating loss of $6.9 in Q1 2010. The improvement was primarily due to higher revenue at IDEO and gross profit improvements at PolyVision and Coalesse.
Q1 2011 revenue increased by $7.9 or 7.9% compared to the same period last year. IDEO experienced a significant increase in revenue as a result of a number of large consulting projects. PolyVision revenue was down slightly due to businesses exited in 2010. Excluding the impact of businesses exited in 2010, PolyVision revenue increased by $5. Additionally, the Coalesse Group reported modest revenue growth.
Cost of sales decreased to 63.2% of revenue in Q1 2011, an 850 basis point improvement compared to Q1 2010, primarily due to:
• | higher consultant utilization rates at IDEO, | |
• | improvements at PolyVision as a result of growth in higher margin Technology and Surfaces product categories and benefits from the 2010 exit of lower margin businesses in the U.S., | |
• | benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts, | |
• | higher fixed cost absorption related to increased volume and | |
• | operational improvements at Coalesse. |
Operating expenses increased by $0.5 in Q1 2011 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher expenses at IDEO, partially offset by benefits from restructuring activities and other cost reduction efforts.

Approximately 80% of corporate expenses are charged to the operating segments as part of a corporate allocation. Unallocated portions of these expenses are considered general corporate costs and are reported as Corporate. Corporate costs include unallocated portions of executive costs and shared service functions such as information technology, human resources, finance, legal, research and development and corporate facilities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Based on current business conditions, we target a minimum of $100 in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments to fundday-to-day operations, to provide available liquidity for investments in growth initiatives and as a cushion against economic volatility. Our actual cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances will fluctuate from quarter to quarter as we plan for and manage certain seasonal disbursements, particularly the annual payment of accrued variable compensation and retirement plan contributions in Q1 of each fiscal year, when applicable.

As of May 28, 2010, we held a total of $139.6 in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Of our total cash and cash equivalents, approximately 46% was located in the U.S. and the remaining 54% was located outside of the U.S., primarily in France and Canada. The majority of our short-term investments are maintained in a managed investment portfolio which primarily consists of U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government agency and corporate debt instruments.
Beginning in Q1 2011, we consider our variable life COLI policies to be primarily a source of corporate liquidity. Accordingly, during Q1 2011, we set the allocation of our investments in variable life COLI policies to a more conservative profile with a heavier weighting to fixed income securities. The policies are recorded at their net cash surrender values, as reported by the three issuing insurance companies, whose Standard & Poor’s financial strength ratings range from AA- to AAA. In addition, our whole life COLI policies represent a potential source of liquidity. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

During Q1 2011, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $36.7 to a balance of $74.4 as of May 29, 2010 primarily as a result of increases in working capital of approximately $38 and variable compensation payments of approximately $25, offset by the receipt of a U.S. income tax refund of approximately $20 in connection with the carry-back of tax losses incurred in 2010 to 2009 and 2008.

The decrease in cash used in operating activities in Q1 2011 was primarily due to a decrease in variable compensation payments compared to Q1 2010 and the receipt of a U.S. income tax refund, partially offset by an increase in cash used by working capital due to the increase in sales and business growth in Q1 2011.

The primary use of cash in financing activities continues to relate to dividends paid on our common stock.
We paid dividends of $0.04 per common share during the first quarter of 2011 and the last three quarters of 2010 and $0.08 per common share during the first quarter of 2010. On June 24, 2010, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.04 per common share to be paid in Q2 2011.
As of the end of Q1 2011, we had $210.8 of remaining availability under the $250 share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors in Q4 2009. We have no outstanding share repurchase commitments.

Our $125 global committed, syndicated credit facility expires in Q4 2013. At our option, and subject to certain conditions, we may increase the aggregate commitment under the facility by up to $75 by obtaining a commitment from one or more lenders. Borrowings under this facility are unsecured and unsubordinated. The facility requires us to satisfy financial covenants including a maximum leverage ratio covenant and a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant. As of May 28, 2010, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facility, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the facility; however, our availability was limited to $69 as a result of constraints related to our maximum leverage ratio covenant.
Outstanding borrowings on uncommitted facilities of $3.3 as of May 28, 2010 were primarily related to short-term liquidity management within our International segment. In addition to those borrowings, we had $18.3 in outstanding letters of credit against the facilities which primarily relate to our self-insured workers’ compensation programs. We had no draws on our standby letters of credit during Q1 2011.

Total consolidated debt as of May 28, 2010 was $298.7. Our debt primarily consists of $249.8 in term notes due in Q2 2012 with an effective interest rate of 6.3%. In addition, we have a $44.9 term loan due in Q2 2017 at a floating interest rate based on30-day LIBOR plus 3.35%. The term notes are unsecured, the term loan is secured by our two corporate aircraft, and both the term notes and the term loan contain no financial covenants and are not cross-defaulted to other debt facilities.
Our senior unsecured debt ratings as of May 28, 2010 are BBB- on CreditWatch from Standard & Poor’s and Ba1 with a negative outlook from Moody’s Investor Service. These ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, are subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization and should be evaluated independently of any other rating. We do not have any rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of our debt or increase the cost of borrowings under our credit facilities.
Liquidity Outlook
Our current cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances, cash generated from future operations, funds available from COLI and funds available under our credit facilities are expected to be sufficient to finance our known or foreseeable liquidity needs. The impact of the global economic recession continues to have a lagging effect on the demand for office environment furnishings and may continue to challenge our level of cash generation from operations. We continue to maintain a conservative approach to liquidity and maintain flexibility over significant uses of cash including our capital expenditures and discretionary operating expenses.
Our most significant funding requirements include operating expenses, non-cancelable operating lease obligations, capital expenditures, variable compensation and retirement plan contributions, dividend payments and debt service obligations.
We expect capital expenditures to total approximately $50 to $60 in 2011, including progress payments associated with a replacement corporate aircraft totaling $9 and additional spending on corporate facilities as a result of campus consolidation, versus $35 in 2010. We closely manage capital spending to ensure we are making investments that we believe will sustain our business and preserve our ability to introduce innovative new products.
We are in the process of various restructuring actions including the plan to consolidate manufacturing in Europe. We expect to incur approximately $17 of cash restructuring costs in connection with this project, and the majority of the restructuring costs are expected to be incurred in 2011.
We announced a quarterly dividend on our common stock of $0.04 per share, or $5.4 to be paid in Q2 2011. Future dividends will be subject to approval by our Board of Directors.

During Q1 2011, there have been no changes in the items that we have identified as critical accounting estimates.
