Prior to the Acquisition completed on August 1, 2006, the Company had a $260,000 Senior revolving credit facility with Bank of America (the “BofA Credit Facility”), as agent for a bank syndicate. Borrowings under the BofA Credit Facility were secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets. Such borrowings were based on a borrowing base amount determined by a percentage of the collateral value of the lease equipment, accounts receivable and inventories. The lease equipment were required to be appraised at least annually and the advance rates were determined annually at the time of the appraisal. The advance rate for the lease fleet assets was calculated by dividing the lesser of (1) 85% of Orderly Liquidation Value as determined by the annual appraisal or (2) 90% of net book value of total rental fleet for the U.S. or U.K. Interest was payable monthly or with respect to LIBOR borrowings, either quarterly or on the last day of the applicable interest period. The revolving loans bear interest at U.S. LIBOR or U.K. LIBOR plus 1.75% to 3.0% or at U.S. Base Rate or U.K. Base Rate, as defined, plus 0% to 1.25% .
The BofA Credit Facility required the Company to meet specific financial ratios and placed various restrictions on the Company, including the incurrence of additional debt, specified limits on capital expenditures, the amounts of dividends which can be made by the Company, and did not allow for dividends to be paid on common stock.
In connection with the Acquisition on August 1, 2006, the Company entered into a new credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”). The New Credit Facility is a 5-year senior secured, asset-based revolving credit facility providing for loans of up to $300,000, subject to specified borrowing base formulas, of which the dollar equivalent of up to £85,000 can be drawn in borrowings denominated in British pounds and may be borrowed (and re-borrowed) by Ravenstock for use in the Company’s U.K. operations. The Company may also incur up to $50,000 of additional senior secured debt under the New Credit Facility, subject to the consent of the joint-lead arrangers under the New Credit Facility, the availability of lenders willing to provide such incremental debt and compliance with the covenants and certain other conditions under the New Credit Facility.

5. Financing (continued)
Borrowings under the New Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets. Such borrowings are governed by a borrowing base, with respect to the Company’s domestic assets (including assets of subsidiary guarantors) and the assets of Ravenstock (including assets of subsidiary guarantors), respectively, consisting of the sum of (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable,plus (ii) the lesser of 100% of the net book value and 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible lease fleet assets,plus (iii) the lesser of 90% of the net book value of and 80% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible machinery and equipment,plus (iv) (A) until an acceptable appraisal is received, 90% of the net book value of eligible inventory (subject to an aggregate $25,000 inventory sublimit) or (B) after an acceptable appraisal is received, the lesser of (x) 90% of the net book value of eligible inventory and (y) 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory (subject to an aggregate $35,000 inventory sublimit). The borrowing base is also subject to certain other adjustments and reserves to be determined by the administrative agent for the lenders under the New Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2007, the Company’s aggregate borrowing capacity pursuant to the borrowing base under the New Credit Facility amounts to $85,731, net of the $214,269 in outstanding borrowings.
In general, borrowings under the New Credit Facility bear interest based, at the Company’s option, on either the agent lender’s base rate or U.S. or U.K. LIBOR, in each case plus a margin. The applicable margin on base rate borrowings can range from 0.5% to 1.25% and 1.5% to 2.25% for LIBOR borrowings based on the Company’s ratio of total debt to EBITDA at the time of determination. As of September 30, 2007, the interest rate for borrowings under the New Credit Facility is based on the agent lender’s base rate plus 1.0% or LIBOR plus 2.0% . The Company’s weighted-average interest rate on outstanding obligations under the New Credit Facility as of September 30, 2007 is 7.74% .
The New Credit Facility places various restrictions on the Company, including the incurrence of additional debt, specified limits on capital expenditures, the amounts of dividends which can be made by the Company, and does not allow for dividends to be paid on common stock. In addition, the New Credit Facility requires the Company to meet specific financial ratios if the total aggregate borrowing capacity falls below $30,000. Had the Company been subject to such financial ratios as of September 30, 2007, the Company would have been in full compliance.
The Company has $4,329 in letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2007 related to its workers compensation and automobile insurance policies. There were no outstanding draws against such letters of credit as of September 30, 2007.
Subordinated Notes
The Company’s subordinated notes, as amended (the “Subordinated Notes”), consisted of notes held by The Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec, John Hancock Life Insurance Company and its affiliates and New York Life Insurance Company. The Subordinated Notes were issued in principal amounts of $25,000 and $55,000 during 2001 and 2002, respectively, and bear interest at 12% per annum with interest payable semiannually. Amortization of the original issue discount related to the Subordinated Notes amounted to $908 for the period from January 1, 2006 to August 1, 2006 and is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of income. The Subordinated Notes placed various restrictions on the Company and required the Company to meet specific financial ratios in order to incur additional debt, subject to certain exceptions.
In connection with the Acquisition on August 1, 2006, the Company paid $83,200 to redeem all of the Subordinated Notes at face value, including $3,200 of prepayment penalties plus all accrued interest through the redemption date.

The Company paid $9,750 of interest due on the Senior Notes in cash on each due date of February 1, 2007 and August 1, 2007. The Senior Notes mature on August 1, 2014. The Senior Notes place various restrictions on the Company, including the incurrence of additional debt, sales of assets and payment of dividends. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed by all of the Company’s current and future domestic subsidiaries, except for certain immaterial domestic subsidiaries. Such notes and guarantees are effectively junior to all of the Company’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The Senior Notes are not guaranteed by any of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries and are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of such non-guarantor subsidiaries. See Note 11 – Condensed Consolidating Financial Information, for financial information regarding the Company’s guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries.

The registered Senior Notes will represent the same debt as the currently outstanding Senior Notes and will be issued under the same indenture as the currently outstanding Senior Notes. The initial exchange offer expired on December 14, 2007.

Stock Option Plans
On February 8, 2005, the Board of Directors approved a stock option incentive plan (the “2005 Plan”) for the Company.

10. Discontinued Operations
Effective during the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company committed to plans to sell its Action Trailer Sales division (“Action”), thereby meeting the held-for-sale criteria set forth in SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” Action is comprised of three locations in the U.S., which are primarily engaged in the business of buying and selling used trailers.
In accordance with SFAS No. 144 and EITF Issue No. 03-13, “Applying the Conditions in Paragraph 42 of FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, in Determining Whether to Report Discontinued Operations,” the net assets of Action are presented separately as assets held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the operating results of Action are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and cash flows. Prior period financial results were reclassified to conform to these changes in presentation.
The Company did not record a gain or loss related to such discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2006 because no gain or loss was expected upon completion of the sale of Action based upon facts and circumstances at that time. As efforts to sell Action progressed during 2007, the Company subsequently determined that the fair value of Action’s net assets, less costs to sell, was lower than its net carrying value. Based on sales of Action’s assets that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a loss on disposal of $1,566 was recorded within discontinued operations of which $430 is from the absorption of a future lease liability. The value of the remaining assets held for sale as of September 30, 2007, which amounts to $74, reflects an estimate of their fair value based on sales of Action’s assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Such remaining assets are expected to be sold before December 31, 2007.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Mobile Services Group, Inc. (which may be referred to as “Mobile Services,” “we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company”) was acquired on August 1, 2006 and in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules has applied “push down accounting” to its post-Acquisition consolidated financial statements to reflect the new basis of accounting. For more information, see our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report. All references in this section to events or activities that occurred prior to the completion of the Acquisition on August 1, 2006 relate to Mobile Services Group, Inc., as the predecessor company (the “Predecessor”). All references in this section to events or activities that occurred after completion of the Acquisition on August 1, 2006 relate to Mobile Services Group, Inc., as the successor company (the “Successor”). Where appropriate, information relating to each specific entity has been segregated and labeled as such.

Overview
We are a leading international provider of portable storage products with a lease fleet of over 117,000 portable storage containers, trailers and mobile offices and 86 branch locations throughout the U.S. and U.K. We focus on leasing portable storage products, and, to complement our core leasing business, we also sell portable storage products. Our storage containers and storage trailers provide secure, convenient and cost-effective on-site storage of inventory, construction supplies, equipment and other goods. Our mobile office units provide temporary office space and employee facilities for, among other uses, construction sites, trade shows, special events and building refurbishments. During 2006, we leased or sold our portable storage products to over 45,000customers in diverse end markets ranging from large companies with a national presence to small local businesses.
We have 66 branch locations in the U.S. and revenues attributable to our operations in the U.S. accounted for approximately 63% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and approximately 64% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. We have 20 branch locations in the U.K. and revenues attributable to our operations in the U.K. accounted for approximately 37% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and approximately 36% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.
Acquisitions
On August 1, 2006, MSG WC Holdings Corp. (“Holdings”), a newly formed entity controlled by affiliates of Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe X, L.P. (“Welsh Carson”) and its affiliates acquired control of the capital stock of the Company (the “Acquisition”) in exchange for consideration of approximately $606 million, subject to certain adjustments and excluding fees and expenses. The Acquisition was financed with $362 million of debt financing and $264 million of cash common equity contributions from Welsh Carson and its affiliates and certain members of the Company’s management. A portion of the consideration was used to repay in full our existing senior secured credit facility (the “BofA Credit Facility”), to repay in full all of our subordinated notes (“Subordinated Notes”) and to redeem all of our issued and outstanding preferred stock.
34
The $362 million of debt financing consists of the following:
| (i) | $200 million of 9¾% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “Senior Notes”) issued by us and our wholly- owned subsidiary, Mobile Storage Group, Inc., on the closing date of the Acquisition; and |
|
| (ii) | a new $300 million senior secured, asset-based revolving credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”), which includes a £85 million U.K. borrowing sublimit. A total of $162 million was drawn on the New Credit Facility on the closing date, including £37.7 million drawn under our U.K. borrowing sublimit. The New Credit Facility matures on August 1, 2011. |
In connection with the consummation of the Acquisition in August 2006, we (i) forgave $0.5 million of receivables due from affiliates and (ii) redeemed all of our issued and outstanding preferred stock, including all preferred dividend payments due which totaled $28.9 million. Additionally, the Acquisition resulted in a change of control, as defined by our 2005 stock option plan, which resulted in the immediate vesting of all outstanding and unvested options under the plan.
Discontinued Operations
During the fourth quarter of 2006, we committed to plans to sell our Action Trailer Sales division (“Action”), thereby meeting the held-for-sale criteria set forth in SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” Action is comprised of three locations in the U.S., which are primarily engaged in the business of buying and selling used trailers. In accordance with SFAS No. 144 and EITF Issue No. 03-13, “Applying the Conditions in Paragraph 42 of FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, in Determining Whether to Report Discontinued Operations,” the net assets of Action are presented separately as assets held for sale and the operating results of Action are presented within discontinued operations. Prior period financial results were reclassified to conform to these changes in presentation. See Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Key Financial Measures
The following key financial measures are used by our management to operate and assess the performance of our business: revenues and costs of operations.
Revenues.Lease and lease related revenues represented approximately 83% and 81% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, and approximately 84% and 82% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. We derive our leasing revenues primarily from the leasing of portable storage products. Included in our lease and lease related revenues are services related to leasing such as charges for a damage waiver and lease equipment repairs. Also included in lease and lease related revenues are the fees that we charge for the delivery and pick-up of our leasing equipment to and from our customers’ premises, delivery of equipment we sell to our customers and repositioning our leasing equipment.
In addition to our lease and lease related revenues, we also generate revenues from selling containers, trailers and mobile offices to our customers. Sales represented approximately 17% and 19% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, and approximately 16% and 18% of our total revenues during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. Included in our sales revenues are charges for modifying or customizing sales equipment to customers’ specifications.
Costs of Operations. Our costs of operations consist primarily of:
- cost of sales;
- trucking and yard costs;
- selling, general and administrative expenses;
- depreciation and amortization expenses; and
- interest expense.
35
Our cost of sales includes the cost of purchasing and refurbishing equipment that we sell to our customers. Trucking costs include the salaries and other payroll-related costs of our trucking personnel, the costs of operating and maintaining our transportation equipment, including fuel costs, and, when necessary, the cost of hiring outside transportation companies to deliver and pick up our portable storage products. Yard costs include the salaries and other payroll-related costs of our yard personnel, the costs associated with the maintenance and repair of our lease fleet, the costs of outside shop repairs and the expense of subleasing equipment. Our selling, general and administrative expenses include all costs associated with our selling efforts, including marketing costs and salaries and commissions of our marketing and sales staff. These expenses also include our overhead costs, such as salaries of our administrative, corporate and branch personnel and the leasing of our facilities. Depreciation and amortization expenses are comprised primarily of costs related to depreciation of our lease fleet and our transportation equipment. Interest expense, which is primarily attributable to our credit facilities and other debt obligations, is also a significant expense of the business.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies and the related judgments and estimates affect the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:Revenue Recognition. We lease and sell various types of storage containers, trailers and mobile offices to customers. Leases to customers are generally on a short-term basis, qualifying as operating leases. The aggregate lease payments are generally less than the purchase price of the equipment. Revenue is recognized as earned in accordance with the lease terms established by the lease agreements and when collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue from sales of equipment is recognized upon delivery and when collectibility is reasonably assured.
Revenue from sales and lease equipment unit delivery and hauling is recognized when these services are provided. Costs associated with these activities are included in trucking and yard costs in the consolidated statements of income.
Customers in the U.S. are generally billed in advance for each 28-day period and customers in the U.K. are generally billed monthly in arrears. Deferred revenue is recorded for the unearned portion of pre-billed lease income.
Depreciation of Lease Equipment. Lease equipment consists primarily of storage containers, storage trailers and mobile offices. The lease equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows: containers – 20 years; trailers and portable steel offices – 15 years; portable timber offices – 10 years. Salvage values are determined when the lease equipment is acquired and are typically 70% for containers and 10% for trailers and steel and timber mobile offices. Management believes the estimated salvage values for our portable storage products do not cause carrying values to exceed net realizable values. Normal repairs and maintenance to lease equipment are expensed as incurred and included in yard costs.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. We account for goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” SFAS 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and requires these assets be reviewed for impairment at least annually. We test goodwill for impairment using the two-step process prescribed in SFAS 142. The first step is a screen for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of the impairment, if any. We performed the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 1, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Based on these tests, we determined that no impairment related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets exist.
36
Other intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives. Intangible assets with finite useful lives consist primarily of non-compete covenants and customer relationships, which are amortized over the expected period of benefit which range from five to ten years. Non-compete covenants are amortized using the straight-line method while customer relationships are amortized using an accelerated method that reflects the related customer attrition rates.
Provision for Doubtful Accounts. We are required to estimate the collectibility of our trade receivables. Accordingly, we maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that may result from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We evaluate a variety of factors in assessing the ultimate realization of these receivables, including the current credit-worthiness of our customers, our days outstanding trends, a review of historical collection results and a review of specific past due receivables. If the financial conditions of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required, resulting in decreased net income. To date, uncollectible accounts have been within the range of management’s expectations.
Commitments and Contingencies. In the normal course of business, we estimate potential future loss accruals related to legal, tax and other contingencies. These accruals require management’s judgment on the outcome of various events based on the best available information. However, due to changes in facts and circumstances, the ultimate outcomes could be different than management’s estimates.
Results of Operations
On August 1, 2006, MSG WC Holdings Corp. and its affiliates acquired control of our capital stock. The data shown below reflect the combination of our results of operations of the Predecessor and Successor during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 in order to achieve a meaningful comparison to our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. These results of operations reflect the reclassification of our Action Trailer Sales division to discontinued operations as discussed in Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenues.Lease and lease related revenues during the third quarter of 2007 amounted to $50.1 million compared to $43.0 million during the same period in 2006, representing an increase of $7.1 million or 16.4% . This was primarily driven by an increase in our average total number of units on lease per month, which increased by 5.4% during the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same period last year, combined with increases in price. Our lease fleet increased from 108,062 units at September 30, 2006 to 117,350 units at September 30, 2007 as a result of our capital expenditures and acquisition activity. Our average fleet utilization during the third quarter of 2007 decreased to 77.9% compared to 80.7% during the same period in 2006 primarily because of (i) an overall decrease in demand for portable storage units from our retail customers as compared to the prior year, combined with (ii) the acquisition of businesses in 2007 and in the fourth quarter of 2006 with lower utilization rates.
Sales revenues during the third quarter of 2007 amounted to $9.9 million compared to $9.1 million during the same period in 2006, representing an increase of $0.8 million or 8.7% . This was primarily due to growth in sales revenues from our U.S. operations resulting from an increase in sales of containers. Growth in sales revenues in the U.S. was partially offset by a decline in sales revenues from our U.K. operations.
The average value of the U.S. dollar against the British pound continued to decline compared to last year. The average currency exchange rate during the third quarter of 2007 was $2.02 to one British pound compared to $1.87 to one British pound during the same period in 2006. This fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates resulted in an increase to our lease and lease related revenues and sales revenues from the U.K. of $1.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, during the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales, which relates entirely to our sales business, increased by $0.3 million to $6.9 million during the third quarter of 2007 compared to $6.6 million during the same period in 2006 due to higher sales revenues in 2007. Our gross profit margin from sales revenues during the third quarter of 2007 increased to 30.6% compared to 28.3% last year mainly due to higher gross margins realized from sales of containers in the U.S. as we continue to derive more value from the modifications we perform on containers that we sell.
40
Trucking and Yard Costs. Trucking and yard costs increased from $13.6 million during the third quarter of 2006 to $15.4 million during the third quarter of 2007 due to a higher volume of business activity resulting from the growth in our core leasing business. As a percentage of lease and lease related revenue, trucking and yard costs decreased to 30.7% during the third quarter of 2007 compared to 31.6% during the same period in 2006 primarily because of overall gains in operating efficiency combined with the improvement in operating leverage we realized from higher leasing revenues over the fixed portion of our trucking and yard costs.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $0.2 million to $5.7 million during the third quarter of 2007 compared to $5.5 million during the same period in 2006 due to the continued growth in our lease fleet resulting from our capital expenditures and acquisition activity. Depreciation and amortization decreased to 9.6% of total revenues during the third quarter of 2007 compared to 10.6% of total revenues during the third quarter of 2006.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the third quarter of 2007 amounted to $17.5 million compared to $14.0 million during the third quarter of 2006. This $3.5 million increase is primarily due to the following factors: (i) an increase in sales and marketing expenses as we continued to make investments in our sales personnel and added resources to our sales and marketing infrastructure in line with our effort to continue increasing organic growth and market expansion; and (ii) an increase in the stock-based compensation expense as a result of the vesting of stock options granted by Holdings, our parent company, to our key employees. As a result of these factors, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 29.1% of total revenues during the third quarter of 2007 compared to 26.9% of total revenues during the third quarter of 2006.
Acquisition Transaction Expenses. These expenses were incurred in connection with the Acquisition of the Company by Holdings on August 1, 2006. See Note 1 – Acquisitions to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a more complete description of Acquisition transaction expenses.
Interest Expense. Net interest expense increased to $9.7 million during the third quarter of 2007 compared to $8.1 million during the third quarter of 2006. This is due to the increase in our total debt from $373.4 million as of September 30, 2006 to $420.0 million as of September 30, 2007 primarily as a result of new debt obligations we incurred under our new capital structure in connection with the Acquisition in August 2006. The weighted average interest rate on our total debt decreased from 9.0% as of September 30, 2006 to 8.7% as of September 30, 2007.
Income Taxes. Our income tax provision increased by $13.0 million from a benefit of $11.3 million during the third quarter of 2006 to a provision of $1.8 million during the third quarter of 2007 due to pretax losses generated in the third quarter of 2006 as a result of the $40.3 million Acquisition transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition. Our overall effective tax rate was approximately 31% and 37% during the third quarter of 2006 and 2007, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate was mainly due to disallowance of certain acquisition transaction costs in 2006.
Net Income.Net income for the third quarter of 2007 increased by $27.7 million to $3.0 million compared to a loss of $(24.7) million for the third quarter of 2006 primarily as a result of the $40.3 million Acquisition transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition in August 2006.

Revenues.Lease and lease related revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 amounted to $138.8 million compared to $120.3 million during the same period in 2006, representing an increase of $18.5 million or 15.4% . This was primarily driven by an increase in our average total number of units on lease per month, which increased by 5.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period last year, combined with increases in price. Our lease fleet increased from 108,062 units at September 30, 2006 to 117,350 units at September 30, 2007 as a result of our capital expenditures and acquisition activity. Our average fleet utilization during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 decreased to 76.8% compared to 79.3% during the same period in 2006 primarily because of (i) an overall decrease in demand for portable storage units from our retail customers as compared to the prior year, combined with (ii) the acquisition of businesses in 2007 and in the fourth quarter of 2006 with lower utilization rates.
Sales revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 amounted to $30.0 million compared to $28.6 million during the same period in 2006, representing an increase of $1.4 million or 4.9% . This was primarily due to growth in sales revenues from our U.S. operations resulting from an increase in sales of containers. Growth in the sales revenues in the U.S. was partially offset by a decline in sales revenues from our U.K. operations.
The average value of the U.S. dollar against the British pound continued to decline compared to last year. The average currency exchange rate during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $1.99 to one British pound compared to $1.82 to one British pound during the same period in 2006. This fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates resulted in an increase to our lease and lease related revenues and sales revenues from the U.K. of $4.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales, which relates entirely to our sales business, increased by $0.4 million to $21.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $20.6 million during the same period in
42
2006 due to higher sales revenues in 2007. Our gross profit margin from sales revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 increased to 29.8% compared to 27.9% last year mainly due to higher gross margins realized from sales of containers in the U.S. as we continue to derive more value from the modifications we perform on containers that we sell.
Trucking and Yard Costs. Trucking and yard costs increased from $37.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 to $43.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 due to a higher volume of business activity resulting from the growth in our core leasing business. As a percentage of lease and lease related revenue, trucking and yard costs increased to 31.1% during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 31.0% during the same period in 2006 primarily because of higher repairs and maintenance costs incurred by our branches during the first six months of 2007 combined with an increase in the price of fuel during the current year.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $0.1 million to $15.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $16.0 million during the same period in 2006. This is due to the decrease in depreciation expense related to our lease equipment subsequent to the Acquisition resulting from the adjustments to their fair values as of the date of the Acquisition in August 2006, which was partially offset by higher amortization expenses related to the amortization of other intangible assets recorded as a result of the Acquisition. Depreciation and amortization decreased to 9.4% of total revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 10.7% of total revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 amounted to $53.0 million compared to $41.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This $11.5 million increase is primarily due to the following factors: (i) an increase in sales and marketing expenses as we continued to make investments in our sales personnel and added resources to our sales and marketing infrastructure in line with our effort to continue increasing organic growth and market expansion; (ii) an increase in administrative expenses in our U.K. operations primarily related to management consulting expenses incurred during the first six months of 2007 to assist us with management and operational initiatives we are undertaking to improve our U.K. business, and (iii) an increase in the stock-based compensation expense as a result of the vesting of stock options granted by Holdings, our parent company, to our key employees. As a result of these factors, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 31.4% of total revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 27.9% of total revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Acquisition Transaction Expenses. These expenses were incurred in connection with the Acquisition of the Company by Holdings on August 1, 2006. See Note 1 – Acquisitions to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a more complete description of Acquisition transaction expenses.
Interest Expense. Net interest expense increased to $28.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $21.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This is due to the increase in our total debt from $373.4 million as of September 30, 2006 to $420.0 million as of September 30, 2007 primarily as a result of new debt obligations we incurred under our new capital structure in connection with the Acquisition in August 2006. The weighted average interest rate on our total debt decreased from 9.0% as of September 30, 2006 to 8.7% as of September 30, 2007.
Income Taxes.Our income tax provision increased by $11.2 million from a benefit of $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 to a provision of $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 due to pretax losses generated during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as a result of the $40.3 million Acquisition transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition. Our overall effective tax rate increased from 29% during 2006 to 39% during 2007 due to certain permanent differences and tax rate differences related to our operations in the U.K.
Net Income. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 increased to $3.7 million compared to a loss of $19.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 primarily as a result of the $40.3 million Acquisition transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition in August 2006.

Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, income from operations or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of liquidity.
EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure, which we define as earnings before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We calculate adjusted EBITDA by adjusting EBITDA to eliminate the impact of certain items management does not consider to be indicative of the performance of our ongoing operations. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and whether you consider each to be appropriate. In addition, in evaluating EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
We present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry, many of which present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or to reduce our indebtedness. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.
The following is a reconciliation of our net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

Payments for businesses acquired, net of cash acquired amounted to $21.5 million and $18.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. We incurred net capital expenditures totaling $38.7 million and $27.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Financing Activities.Net cash provided by financing activities mainly relates to borrowings or payments on long-term debt under our debt agreements, and preferred stock redemptions and dividend payments under our pre-Acquisition capital structure. Our net cash provided by financing activities of $31.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 primarily relates to net borrowings from our credit facilities during 2007. Our net cash provided by financing activities of $347.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 mainly relates to the Acquisition completed in August 2006 and the related restructuring of our debt. This resulted in net borrowings during 2006 of $84.0 million, including related financing costs. Additionally, the Acquisition resulted in cash equity contributions of $263.3 million.

We believe that our cash flow provided by operations will be adequate to cover our 2007 working capital needs, debt service requirements and a certain portion of our planned capital expenditures to the extent such items are known or are reasonably determinable based on current business and market conditions. We expect to finance certain of our capital expenditure requirements under our credit facilities or through capital lease agreements.
We continually evaluate potential acquisitions. We expect that all future acquisitions will be cash flow accretive immediately upon completion of the acquisition. Currently, we are not party to any agreements or engaged in any negotiations regarding a material acquisition. We expect to fund future acquisitions through cash flow provided by operations and additional borrowings under our credit facilities.
Credit Facilities and Financing
New Credit Facility
In connection with the Acquisition on August 1, 2006, we entered into a new credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”). The New Credit Facility is a 5-year senior secured, asset-based revolving credit facility providing for loans of up to $300 million, subject to specified borrowing base formulas, of which the dollar equivalent of up to £85 million can be drawn in borrowings denominated in British pounds and may be borrowed (and re-borrowed) by Ravenstock for use in our U.K. operations. We may also incur up to $50 million of additional senior secured debt under the New Credit Facility, subject to the consent of the joint-lead arrangers under the New Credit Facility, the availability of lenders willing to provide such incremental debt and compliance with the covenants and certain other conditions under the New Credit Facility. On August 1, 2006, $162 million was drawn on the New Credit Facility, including £37.7 million drawn under the U.K. borrowing sublimit. As of September 30, 2007, our aggregate borrowing capacity pursuant to the borrowing base under the New Credit Facility amounted to $85.7 million, net of the $214.3 million in outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2007. For more details regarding our New Credit Facility, see Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Senior Notes
We issued $200 million of Senior Notes on August 1, 2006 in connection with the Acquisition. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 9¾% per annum and is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year. We paid the interest due on our Senior Notes which amounted to $9.8 million on February 1, 2007 and $9.8 million on August 1, 2007. The Senior Notes mature on August 1, 2014. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations and are guaranteed by all of our current and future domestic subsidiaries, except for certain immaterial domestic subsidiaries. Such notes and guarantees are effectively junior to all of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The Senior Notes are not guaranteed by any of our foreign subsidiaries and are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of such non-guarantor subsidiaries. For more details regarding our Senior Notes, see Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Holdings Subordinated Notes
On August 1, 2006, our parent, Holdings, issued $90 million in aggregate principal amount of subordinated notes to WCAS Capital Partners IV, L.P., an affiliate of Welsh Carson, and a strategic co-investor. The proceeds of the Holdings subordinated notes were contributed to the Company in the form of common equity capital and were used to fund the Acquisition.
The Holdings subordinated notes mature on February 1, 2015 and are structurally and contractually subordinated to the New Credit Facility and the Senior Notes. Such subordinated notes are unsecured and do not possess the benefit of a guarantee. The Holdings subordinated notes accrue interest on a payment-in-kind, non-cash basis at 12.0% per annum for the first two years. Thereafter, interest will be payable quarterly at 10.0% per annum subject to the terms of the New Credit Facility and the Senior Notes. If MSG Parent is prohibited from making cash interest payments, interest will continue to accrue on a payment-in-kind, non-cash basis at 12.0% per annum.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates, especially U.S. LIBOR and U.K. LIBOR applicable to the New Credit Facility, and from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our operations in the U.K.
Interest Rate Risks
Outstanding balances under the New Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on a margin over LIBOR. The New Credit Facility permits us to draw funds by taking out LIBOR contracts at varying maturities. LIBOR contracts are fixed rate instruments for a period of between one and six months, entered into at our discretion, provided that the New Credit Facility does not permit more than six such contracts to be outstanding in each of the U.S. and U.K. at any one time. Our portfolio of LIBOR contracts vary in length and interest rate. Any adverse change in interest rates could affect our overall borrowing rate when LIBOR contracts are renewed. Given the amounts outstanding under the New Credit Facility at September 30, 2007, a hypothetical 1% increase in the U.S. LIBOR and U.K. LIBOR from the applicable rates at September 30, 2007 would increase our net interest expense by approximately $2.0 million on an annual basis and would therefore decrease both our earnings and cash flow for that annual period.
We are not currently a party to any interest rate swap agreements or other financial instruments to hedge against the risk of increases in interest rates. Our management monitors interest rates and trends in interest rates and will from time to time evaluate the advisability of entering into derivative transactions to hedge our interest rate risk. We cannot predict market fluctuations in interest rates and their impact on our New Credit Facility. As such, our operating results in the future may differ materially from estimated results due to adverse changes in interest rates.
We believe that inflation has not had a material effect on our results of operations. However, an inflationary environment could materially increase interest rates on our floating rate debt which, as of September 30, 2007, comprised approximately 51% of our total indebtedness. The price of portable storage units for our fleet purchases could also increase in such an environment.
Foreign Currency Risks
We are also subject to market risks resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our operations outside of the U.S. During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we derived approximately 35% of our total revenues from our operations in the U.K. We estimate that a 10% decrease in the U.S. dollar versus the British pound would have increased our revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 by approximately $3.7 million and $11.4 million, respectively, or approximately 6% of total
47
revenues in each period. Currently, revenues and expenses of our operating subsidiary, Ravenstock, in the U.K. are recorded in British pounds, which is the functional currency for this subsidiary.
We are exposed to market risks related to foreign currency translation caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the British pound. We seek to limit exposure to foreign currency transactional losses from our U.K. operations by denominating revenues and expenses of our U.K. subsidiary in its functional currency. The assets and liabilities of our U.K. subsidiary are translated from the British pound into the U.S. dollar at the exchange rate in effect at each balance sheet date, while income statement amounts are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. A strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the British pound could, therefore, reduce the amount of cash and income we receive and recognize from our U.K. operations. As foreign exchange rates vary, our results of operations and profitability may be harmed. The effect of foreign currency translation risks caused by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the British pound on our operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was not insignificant. As a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, our total revenues increased by approximately $1.6 million and $5.2 million during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007, respectively, relative to the same periods in 2006. We cannot predict the effects of exchange rate fluctuations on our future operating results because of the potential volatility of currency exchange rates. To the extent we expand our business into other countries, we anticipate that we will face similar market risks related to foreign currency translations caused by exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of those countries. We do not currently engage in foreign currency exchange hedging transactions to manage our foreign currency exposure. If and when we do engage in foreign currency exchange hedging transactions, we cannot assure you that our strategies will adequately protect our operating results from the effects of exchange rate fluctuations.
