NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited consolidated financial information herein has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and is in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations for interim financial reporting. In the opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. This financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007.
1. | Background and Basis of Presentation |
Keystone Automotive Operations, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) are wholesale distributors and retailers of automotive aftermarket accessories and equipment, operating in all regions of the United States and parts of Canada. The Company sells and distributes specialty automotive products, such as light truck/SUV accessories, car accessories and trim items, specialty wheels, tires and suspension parts, and high performance products to a fragmented base of approximately 20,000 customers. The Company’s wholesale operations include electronic service features that provide customers the ability to view inventory and place orders via its proprietary electronic catalog. The Company also operates 24 retail stores in Pennsylvania. The Company’s corporate headquarters is in Exeter, Pennsylvania.
2. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In September of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements,” (“SFAS 157”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The statement indicates, among other things, that a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. SFAS 157 defines fair value based upon an exit price model.
Relative to SFAS 157, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FSP 157-1 and 157-2. FSP 157-1 amends SFAS157 to exclude SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” (SFAS 13) and its related interpretive accounting pronouncements that address leasing transactions, while FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of application of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. Non-recurring nonfinancials assets and nonfinancial liabilities include those measured at fair value in goodwill impairment testing, indefinite lived intangible assets measured at fair value for impairment testing, asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value, and those assets and liabilities measured at fair value in a business combination.
We adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and financial liabilities as of the beginning of our 2008 fiscal year, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 157 and the related guidance of FSP 157-1 and FSP 157-2. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
In February of 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many
4
Table of Contents
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Effective beginning the first quarter of 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 159 and elected not to measure any additional financial instruments and other items at fair value.
On December 15, 2006, the SEC adopted new measures to grant relief to non-accelerated filers, including the Company, by extending the date of required compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“the Act”). Under these new measures, the Company will be required to comply with the Act in two phases. The first phase was completed for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 29, 2007 and required the Company to furnish a management report on internal control over financial reporting. The second phase will require the Company to provide an auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting beginning with the Company’s fiscal year ending January 3, 2009.
On February 1, 2008 the SEC proposed an additional extension for non-accelerated filers to the requirement that companies include in their annual report the auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting. Under the proposed amendment, we would be required to provide the auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting beginning with our fiscal year ending January 2, 2010.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R provides revised guidance on how acquirers recognize and measure the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and financial effects of business combinations. SFAS No. 141R is effective, on a prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. While the Company has not yet evaluated this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 141R will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company will be required to expense transaction costs related to any acquisitions after January 3, 2009.
3. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Principles of Consolidation and Fiscal Year
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Keystone Automotive Operations, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company operates on a 52/53-week per year basis with the fiscal year ending on the Saturday nearest December 31. There are 13 weeks included in the three month periods ended March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007.
For comparative purposes, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The impact of the reclassifications was not material and did not impact net income (loss).
Stock-Based Compensation
Options to purchase 485,668 shares of Class L common stock and 4,371,008 of Class A common stock were granted on March 27, 2008. The Company recorded $0.1 million of expense associated with the grant of the new options and a total expense of $0.3 million for all share-based compensation in the first quarter of 2008. In the first quarter of 2007, the Company recorded $0.8 million of expense for such share-based compensation.
For purposes of determining the fair value of new stock option awards, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the following fair value assumptions:
Three Months Ended | ||||||

On March 27, 2008, the Company entered into a Restricted Stock Agreement (the “Restricted Stock Agreement”) with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, Edward H. Orzetti, pursuant to which the Company granted Mr. Orzetti 60,000 shares of the Company’s Class L Common Stock and 540,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, which we collectively refer to as the “Restricted Stock,” subject to certain vesting provisions and restrictions on transfer. Under the Restricted Stock Agreement, fifty percent (50%) of the Restricted Stock vests on October 31, 2008 and the remaining fifty percent (50%) vests on June 30, 2010, if Mr. Orzetti is continuously employed by the Company or a subsidiary through such dates, subject to earlier vesting upon certain events, including a Sale of the Company (as defined in the Restricted Stock Agreement). If Mr. Orzetti’s employment with the Company is terminated, he will forfeit any unvested shares of Restricted Stock. Mr. Orzetti has full voting rights with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, but until the shares vest he may not transfer any of the shares and the Company will retain physical custody of the certificates for the shares. In addition, prior to vesting, any dividends to which the shares of restricted stock are entitled will be accumulated and held by the Company subject to the same restrictions as the underlying shares. The fair value of the Restricted Stock, computed in accordance with SFAS 123(R), was approximately $1.0 million. An immaterial amount of expense associated with the unvested and unexercised Restricted Stock was recorded for the period ended March 29, 2008.

Taxes
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No.48 (“FIN48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” at the beginning of its 2007 fiscal year. At March 29, 2008, the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $2.4 million, of which $1.6 million would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
A number of years may elapse before an uncertain tax position, for which we have unrecognized tax benefits, is audited and finally resolved. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular uncertain tax position, we believe that our unrecognized tax benefits reflect the most likely outcome. We adjust these unrecognized tax benefits, as well as the related interest, in light of changing facts and circumstances. Settlement of any particular position would usually require the use of cash. Favorable resolution would be recognized as a reduction to our annual tax rate in the period of resolution.
Based upon the expiration of the state statute of limitations, we do not expect that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next twelve months. The Company files income tax returns in the United States (“U.S.”) for federal and various state jurisdictions and in Canada for federal and provincial jurisdictions. All U.S. federal income tax returns are closed through the short period ended October 30, 2003. The Internal Revenue Service has begun an examination of the open years. State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing of the respective return. The Company and its subsidiaries have a limited number of state income tax returns in the process of examination. Canadian federal and provincial income tax returns are closed through the year ended December 31, 1998. The Company has not been notified of the commencement of any examination of the open years by the Canada Revenue Agency.
4. | Segment Information |
Based on the nature of the Company’s reportable operations, facilities and management structure, the Company considers its business to constitute two segments for financial reporting purposes, Distribution and Retail, as described below:
Distribution
The Distribution segment encompasses eight regions that are economically similar, share a common class of customers and distribute the same products. One of the defining characteristics of this business segment is our hub-and-spoke distribution network. This segment distributes specialty automotive equipment for vehicles to specialty retailers/installers, and our distribution network is structured to meet the rapid delivery needs of our customers. This network is comprised of: (i) four inventory stocking warehouse distribution centers, which are located in Exeter, Pennsylvania; Kansas City, Kansas; Austell, Georgia; and Corona, California; (ii) 21 non-inventory stocking cross-docks located throughout the East Coast, Southeast, Midwest, West Coast and parts of Canada; and (iii) our fleet of 345 trucks that provide multi-day per week delivery and returns along over 278 routes which cover 42 states and parts of Canada. Our four warehouse distribution centers hold the vast majority of the Distribution segment’s inventory and distribute merchandise to cross-docks in their respective regions for next-day or second-day delivery to customers. The Distribution segment supplies the Retail Operations segment; these intercompany sales are included in the amounts reported as net sales for the Distribution segment in the table below, and are eliminated to arrive at net sales to third parties.
Retail
The Retail segment of our business operates 24 retail stores in northeastern Pennsylvania under the A&A Auto Parts name. A&A stores sell replacement parts and specialty accessories to end-consumers and small jobbers. A&A stores are visible from high traffic areas and provide customers ease of access and drive-up parking. While a small part of our business, we believe that our retail operations allow us to stay close to end-consumer and product merchandising trends. A&A stores purchase their inventory from the Distribution segment.

As a result, we did not pay an annual advisory fee for 2007. The restriction on achieving minimum Adjusted EBITDA lapses following the 2007 fiscal year, if we have generated cumulative consolidated adjusted EBITDA of at least $158.0 million over the previous twelve consecutive fiscal quarters. For the twelve quarters ended December 29, 2007, the Company’s cumulative Adjusted EBITDA was $173.1 million. Additionally, Bain Capital is entitled to transaction fees of 1.0% of the total value of the transaction, plus reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses, related to the completion of any financing or material acquisition or divestiture by Holdings, plus reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses.

Overview
General Business Overview
We are a wholesale distributor and retailer of automotive aftermarket accessories and equipment, operating throughout the United States and in parts of Canada. The Company sells and distributes specialty automotive products, such as light truck/SUV accessories, car accessories and trim items, specialty wheels, tires and suspension parts, and high performance products to a fragmented base of approximately 20,000 customers. Our wholesale operations include electronic service features that provide customers the ability to view inventory and place orders via its proprietary electronic catalog. The Company also operates 24 retail stores in Pennsylvania. Our corporate headquarters is in Exeter, Pennsylvania.
Our Distribution and Retail Operations constitute two business segments which are more fully described below.
Distribution
The Distribution segment encompasses eight regions that are economically similar, share a common class of customers and distribute the same products. One of the defining characteristics of this business segment is our hub-and-spoke delivery network. This segment distributes specialty automotive equipment for vehicles to specialty retailers/installers and our distribution network is structured to meet the rapid delivery needs of our customers. This network is comprised of: (i) four inventory stocking warehouse distribution centers, which are located in Exeter, Pennsylvania; Kansas City, Kansas; Austell, Georgia; and Corona, California; (ii) 21 non-inventory stocking cross-docks spread throughout the East Coast, Southeast, Midwest, West Coast and parts of Canada; and (iii) our fleet of 345 trucks that provide multi-day per week delivery and returns along our over 278 routes which cover 42 states and parts of Canada. Our four warehouse distribution centers hold the vast majority of the Distribution segment’s inventory and distribute merchandise to cross-docks in their respective regions for next-day or second-day delivery to customers.
Retail
The Retail segment of our business operates 24 retail stores in northeastern Pennsylvania under the A&A Auto Parts name. A&A stores sell replacement parts and specialty accessories to end-consumers and small jobbers. A&A stores are visible from high traffic areas and provide customers ease of access and drive-up parking. While a small part of our business, we believe that our retail operations allow us to stay close to end-consumer and product merchandising trends. A&A stores purchase their inventory from the Distribution segment.
Operations Overview
For the three month period ended March 29, 2008, our net sales decreased 1.6% versus the three month period ended March 31, 2007. Our Distribution segment generated $138.4 million, or 96.2%, of our net sales in the three month period ended March 29, 2008, compared to $140.7 million or 96.2%, of our net sales in the three month period ended March 31, 2007. Our Retail segment generated $5.5 million, or 3.8%, of our net sales in both the three month period ended March 29, 2008 and the three month period ended March 31, 2007.

Table of Contents
Our net loss decreased by $5.7 million for the three month period ended March 29, 2008, to a net loss of $2.8 million compared to a net loss of $8.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2007. The three month period ended March 29, 2008 benefited from higher product selling margins, lower selling, general and administrative expense, lower interest expense and the absence of the prior year’s write-off of $6.1 million of deferred financing costs.
Items Affecting Comparability
Comparability between 2008 and 2007 periods

Three Months Ended March 29, 2008 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2007
Net Sales. Net sales represent the sales of product and promotional items, fees, and all shipping and handling costs paid by customers, less any customer-related incentives and a reserve for future returns.
Net sales for the quarter ended March 29, 2008 were $143.9 million, a decrease of $2.4 million, or 1.6%, compared to $146.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in sales was driven by a combination of factors, including a decrease in consumer spending on discretionary items driven by higher gasoline prices, general economic uncertainty and a year over year decline in truck and SUV sales, which directly impacts our business. The Midwest geography delivered single digit growth in net sales versus the prior period, while Canada, National Accounts (customers that participate in retail markets on a national or multi-region basis) and International geographies achieved double digit growth versus the same period in the prior year. Sales from our Northeast, West Coast, Southeast and Dropship fulfillment operations (shipping via third party delivery directly to the end-consumer on behalf of our customer) saw single digit declines in net sales versus the same period in the prior year.
Gross Profit. Gross profit represents net sales less the cost of sales. In addition to product costs, cost of sales includes third-party delivery costs and vendor promotional support. Gross profit increased by $1.5 million, or 3.5%, from $44.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 to $46.4 million for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. The increase in gross profit resulted from improved selling margins and managed vendor programs. Gross margin was 32.3% for the three month period ended March 29, 2008 versus 30.7% for the three month period ended March 31, 2007.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Included in selling, general and administrative expense are all non-product related operating expenses - warehouse, marketing, delivery, selling and general and administrative including depreciation and amortization, occupancy, and information technology less certain benefits received from promotional activities. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $42.0 million or 29.2% of sales for the three month period ended March 29, 2008, and $42.8 million or 29.3% of our sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2007. This decrease in operating expenses resulted primarily from cost reduction programs in warehouse and other areas partially offset by an increase in delivery expense and general inflation. Delivery expense for the three month period ended March 29, 2008 increased by $1.1 million as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2007, primarily due to increased fuel prices and the cost of operating new delivery routes.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $0.7 million, or 7.5%, to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 29, 2008 compared to $9.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease is related to a decrease in variable interest rates.

Table of Contents
Income Tax Expense. The income tax benefit decreased by $3.4 million, to a benefit of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 29, 2008 from a benefit of $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Our effective tax benefit rate was 38.0% for the three months ended March 29, 2008 compared to an effective tax benefit rate of 37.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Net Income. Net loss decreased by $5.7 million to a loss of $2.8 million for the three months ended March 29, 2008 compared to an $8.5 million loss for the same period in the prior year. The decrease loss is attributed to the $1.5 million increase in gross profit, the $0.8 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expense, and the $0.7 million decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 29, 2008.Additionally during the three month period ended March 31, 2007, the company incurred a $6.1 million write-off of deferred financing costs. These decreases to net loss before income tax were partially offset by a corresponding decrease in income tax benefit of $3.4 million.
Results by Reportable Segment. Consolidated net sales for the Distribution segment decreased $2.3 million, or 1.6%, for the three months ended March 29, 2008 compared to the same period in the prior year. The sales decrease was driven by a decrease in consumer spending on discretionary items driven by higher gasoline prices and general economic uncertainty and a year over year decline in truck and SUV sales, which directly impacts our business. Net income for the Distribution segment increased by $6.0 million for the three months ended March 29, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase is due primarily to the increase in gross profit and decreases in selling, general and administrative expense, interest expense and the absence of the prior year’s write-off of deferred financing costs. These increases where partially offset by a decrease in income tax benefit.
The Retail segment’s sales was unchanged for the three months ended March 29, 2008 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The Retail segment’s net income for the three mouth period ended March 29, 2008 decreased by $0.3 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007 due to lower gross profit margin and higher operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 29, 2008 was $5.2 million compared to $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease in cash from operations was driven primarily by a smaller decrease in net operating assets employed in the business than the prior year. Partially offsetting this was an increase in net income after adjustment for non-cash charges. Non-cash charges include depreciation and amortization, deferred financing charges, write-offs of deferred financing charges, net gains or losses on sales of property, plant and equipment, deferred income taxes and non-cash stock-based compensation expense.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $2.6 million for the period ended March 29, 2008 an increase of $0.4 million from the net cash used in investing activities of $2.2 million in the period ended March 31, 2007. The increase in investing activities is related to higher purchases of property, plant and equipment associated with the normal operations of the business.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities during the period ended March 29, 2008 was $0.5 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $6.2 million during the period ended March 31, 2007. The period ended March 31, 2007 includes $6.3 million of new deferred financing charges related to the Credit Agreement.
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations and borrowings under our Credit Agreement. We believe that these funds will provide us with sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet our current and future financial obligations, including our scheduled principal and interest payments, as well as provide funds for working capital, capital expenditures, and other needs for at least the next twelve months. Given our historical operating performance, including working capital needs, capital expenditures, and operating costs needed to support organic growth, we believe that our principal sources of liquidity will be sufficient to support our cash requirements through the maturity of our Credit Agreement. However, in the event that we consummate an acquisition during this period, our Credit Agreement contains certain restrictions that may not allow us to fund the total cost of an acquisition from our current sources of liquidity and may require additional borrowings. As of March 29, 2008, we had $105.8 million in available cash and borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Agreement. Our principal uses of cash are debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Less frequent uses of cash can include payments of restrictive distributions to Holdings, and acquisitions.

Table of Contents
Debt Service. The Credit Agreement consists of our five-year asset-based Revolving Credit Agreement with a commitment amount of $125.0 million and our five-year Term Loan amortizing $200.0 million. As of March 29, 2008, under our Credit Agreement and our 9.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (“the Notes”), we had total indebtedness of $372.5 million and $93.9 million of borrowing availability as defined by our Revolving Credit Agreement, subject to customary conditions.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally bear interest based at a margin over, at our option, the base rate or the reserve-adjusted LIBOR. As of March 29, 2008 the applicable margin was 125 basis points over LIBOR or 25 basis points over the base rate for revolving credit loans and 350 basis points over LIBOR or 250 basis points over the base rate for the Term Loan. Our obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in all of our receivables and inventory and a second priority security interest in the stock of our subsidiaries and all other assets of us and the guarantors. The Term Loan is secured by a first priority security interest in all machinery and equipment, real estate, intangibles and stock of the subsidiaries of us and the guarantors under the Term Loan, and a second priority security interest in our receivables and inventory.
The Notes mature in 2013 and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of our existing domestic restricted subsidiaries, jointly and severally, on a senior subordinated basis. Interest on the Notes accrues at the rate of 9.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on May 1 and November 1, commencing on May 1, 2004. The Notes and the guarantees are unsecured senior subordinated obligations and will be subordinated to all of our subsidiaries’ and guarantors’ existing and future senior debt. If we cannot make payments required by the Notes, the subsidiary guarantors are required to make the payments.
Capital Expenditures. We expect to spend approximately $8.0 million on capital expenditures in 2008. Through the three months ended March 29, 2008, $2.6 million was spent on capital expenditures. Although the Credit Agreement contains restrictions on the total amount of our annual capital expenditures, management believes that the amount of capital expenditures permitted to be made under the Credit Agreement is adequate to grow our business according to our business strategy and to maintain the properties and business of our continuing operations.
Working Capital. Working capital totaled approximately $122.4 million at March 29, 2008 and $124.0 million at March 31, 2007. We maintain sizable inventory in order to help secure our position as a critical link in the industry between vendors and customers, and believe that we will continue to require working capital consistent with recent past experience. Our working capital needs are seasonal, and we build working capital in the winter months in anticipation of the peak spring and summer season, during which time our working capital tends to be reduced.
Acquisitions. As a part of our business strategy, we will continue to evaluate acquisition and business expansion opportunities in regions that are not well served by our existing distribution facilities or where we believe significant business synergies exist. We cannot guarantee that any acquisitions will be consummated. If we do consummate any acquisition, it could be material to our business and require us to incur additional debt under our Credit Agreement or otherwise. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available when required or, if available, that it will be on terms satisfactory to us.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
None.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements,” (“SFAS 157”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The statement indicates, among other things, that a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. SFAS 157 defines fair value based upon an exit price model.
Relative to SFAS 157, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FSP 157-1 and 157-2. FSP 157-1 amends SFAS157 to exclude SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” (SFAS 13) and its related interpretive accounting pronouncements that address leasing transactions, while FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of application of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. Non-recurring nonfinancials assets and nonfinancial liabilities include those measured at fair value in goodwill impairment testing, indefinite lived intangible assets measured at fair value for impairment testing, asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value, and those assets and liabilities measured at fair value in a business combination.
We adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and financial liabilities as of the beginning of our 2008 fiscal year, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 157 and the related guidance of FSP 157-1 and FSP 157-2. The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

In February of 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Effective beginning the first quarter of 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 159 and elected not to measure any additional financial instruments and other items at fair value.
On December 15, 2006, the SEC adopted new measures to grant relief to non-accelerated filers, including the Company, by extending the date of required compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“the Act”). Under these new measures, the Company will be required to comply with the Act in two phases. The first phase was completed for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 29, 2007 and required the Company to furnish a management report on internal control over financial reporting. The second phase will require the Company to provide an auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting beginning with the Company’s fiscal year ending January 3, 2009.
On February 1, 2008 the SEC proposed an additional extension for non-accelerated filers to the requirement that companies include in their annual report the auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting. Under the proposed amendment, we would be required to provide the auditor’s attestation report on internal control over financial reporting beginning with our fiscal year ending January 2, 2010.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R provides revised guidance on how acquirers recognize and measure the consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also expands required disclosures surrounding the nature and financial effects of business combinations. SFAS No. 141R is effective, on a prospective basis, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. While the Company has not yet evaluated this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 141R will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company will be required to expense transaction costs related to any acquisitions after January 3, 2009.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
We are exposed to certain market risks as part of our on-going business operations. Primary exposure includes changes in interest rates as borrowings under our senior credit facilities bear interest at floating rates based on LIBOR or the base rate, in each case plus an applicable borrowing margin. We manage our interest rate risk by balancing the amount of fixed-rate and floating-rate debt. For fixed-rate debt, interest rate changes affect the fair market value but do not affect earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for floating-rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact our earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant.
We may use derivative financial instruments, where appropriate, to manage our interest rate risks. However, as a matter of policy, we will not enter into derivative or other financial investments for trading or speculative purposes. We do not have any speculative or leveraged derivative transactions. Most of our sales are denominated in U.S. dollars; thus our financial results are not subject to any material foreign currency exchange risks.
Both the industry in which we operate and our distribution methods are affected by the availability and price of fuel. Because we use a fleet of trucks to deliver specialty automotive equipment parts to our customers, the general upward trend in the cost of fuel over the past several years has caused us to incur increased costs in operating our fleet, which has an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Interest Rate Risk and Sensitivity Analysis
On January 12, 2007, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement to refinance our debt and replace the Company’s existing senior secured credit agreement. As of March 29, 2008, the Company has $372.5 million in debt, including $0.1 million in debt related to capital leases. The Revolving Credit Agreement was undrawn and the interest rate on the $175 million of our Senior Subordinated Notes is fixed at 9.75%. As of March 29, 2008, our exposure to changes in interest rates is related to our Term Loans of $197.5 million which provides for quarterly principal and interest payments at LIBOR plus 350 basis points and matures in 2012. Based on the amount outstanding and affected by variable interest rates, a 100 basis point change would result in an approximately $2.0 million change to interest expense.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating (1) the design of procedures to ensure that material information relating to us is made known to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others and (2) the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Changes in Internal Controls. No change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
On April 7, 2008 Donald T. Grimes announced his resignation as the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Grimes has accepted a chief financial officer position with a publicly-traded, global consumer products company. Mr. Grimes will remain with the Company until May 23, 2008 in order to effectively transition his responsibilities.
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
The Company is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings. The Company is a party to various lawsuits arising in the normal course of business, and has certain contingent liabilities arising from various other pending claims and legal proceedings. While the amount of liability that may result from these matters cannot be determined, we believe the ultimate liability will not materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
For a more detailed explanation of the factors affecting our business, please refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements Section” in this report and in the “Risk Factors” section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2007.
There have been no material changes from Risk Factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2007.
