NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1.Description of the Company
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the operations, assets and liabilities of JohnsonDiversey, Inc. (formerly S. C. Johnson Commercial Markets, Inc.) (the “Company”). The Company is comprised of a Professional Business and a Polymer Business. The Professional Business is a global manufacturer of commercial, industrial and institutional building maintenance and sanitation products. The Polymer Business is a global manufacturer of polymer intermediates marketed to the printing and packaging, coatings, and plastics industries.
Prior to November 5, 1999, the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc. (“SCJ”). On November 5, 1999, ownership of the Company, including all of its assets and liabilities, was spun-off in a tax-free reorganization. In connection with the spin-off, Commercial Markets Holdco, Inc. (“Holdco”) obtained substantially all of the shares of the Company from SCJ.
Prior to May 3, 2002, Holdco contributed its shares in the Company to Johnson Professional Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco.
On May 3, 2002, the Company acquired the DiverseyLever business from Conopco, Inc., a subsidiary of Unilever N.V. and Unilever PLC (together, “Unilever”) (see Note 8). At the closing of the acquisition, the Company changed its name to JohnsonDiversey, Inc., and Johnson Professional Holdings, Inc. changed its name to JohnsonDiversey Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”). In connection with the acquisition, Unilever acquired a 33 1/3% interest in Holdings, with the remaining 66 2/3% continuing to be held by Holdco.
2.Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of October 3, 2003, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003 and cash flows for the nine months ended October 3, 2003. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2003. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
In order to achieve alignment with its actual business management practices, beginning with fiscal year 2003, the Company reclassified distribution costs from marketing, administrative and general expenses to cost of sales. Prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency. Distribution costs were $66,351 and $64,703 for the three months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively; and $203,190 and $135,809 for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively.
Certain other prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.
All monetary amounts, excluding share data, are stated in thousands.
3.New Accounting Standards
In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 146,Accounting for Costs Associated with Disposal Activities. Under SFAS No. 146, liabilities for costs associated with a plan to dispose of an asset or to exit a business activity must generally be recognized in the period in which the costs are incurred. The pronouncement supercedes Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 94-3,Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity. Under EITF 94-3, a liability is recognized solely upon an entity’s commitment to a plan. SFAS No. 146 was effective for disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 effective January 4, 2003 (see Note 11).
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 45,Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, which
4
JOHNSONDIVERSEY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
(unaudited)
expands on the guidance for the accounting and disclosure of guarantees. Each guarantee meeting the characteristics described in FIN 45 is to be recognized and initially measured at fair value. In addition, guarantors will be required to make significant new disclosures, even if the likelihood of the guarantor making payments under the guarantee is remote. FIN 45’s disclosure requirements were effective for financial statements for annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, while the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted FIN 45 effective January 4, 2003.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS No. 148 is effective for financial statements for annual periods ending after December 15, 2002, and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted the amendments to the SFAS No. 123 disclosure provisions required under SFAS No. 148 effective January 4, 2003, but will continue to use the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, to account for stock-based compensation (see Note 6).
In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 defines a “variable interest entity” and requires a company to consolidate such an entity if the company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns. The interpretation also requires disclosure of variable interest entities that the company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. FIN 46 is immediately effective for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and effective December 15, 2003 for variable interest entities created on or prior to January 31, 2003. The Company’s adoption of FIN 46 has not had a significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149,Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.SFAS No. 149 is intended to result in more consistent reporting of contracts as either freestanding derivative instruments subject to SFAS No. 133 in its entirety, or as hybrid instruments with debt host contracts and embedded derivative features. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 149 has not had a significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for classifying and measuring as liabilities certain financial instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Instruments that are indexed to and potentially settled in an issuer’s own shares that are not within the scope of SFAS No. 150 remain subject to existing guidance. SFAS No. 150 must be applied to instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and to all other instruments that exist as of the beginning of the first interim financial reporting period beginning after December 15, 2003. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 150 has not and is not expected to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
4.Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes includes deferred taxes and is based upon estimates of annual effective tax rates in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

6.Stock-based Compensation
The Company has a Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) that provides for the right to purchase stock of Holdco for certain senior management of the Company. Prior to July 1, 2001, the Plan provided for the award of one share of restricted stock and one stock option for every four shares purchased. Shares are acquired at a formula value, which is an estimation of fair value by the Company based on overall Holdco performance. All restricted shares vest over a three-to-four year period from the grant date and have an exercise period of ten years from the date of grant. Stock options have an exercise term of ten years from the date of grant. Also, employees that remain with the Company for four years after spin-off are granted debt forgiveness of at least 50% of the purchase price of the stock.
Subsequent to June 29, 2001, the Plan was modified so that all awards granted under the Plan were stock option grants. Newly issued stock options vest over four years and have an exercise period of seven years from the date of grant.
The Company’s compensation expense related to restricted stock and debt forgiveness is recorded as $379 and $205 for the three months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively; and $1,006 and $1,876 for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively.
The pro forma impact of compensation expense if the Company had used the fair-value method of accounting to measure compensation expense would have reduced net income by approximately $2,039 and $791 for the three months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively; and $6,124 and $2,374 for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively.

8.Acquisition of the DiverseyLever Business
On May 3, 2002, the Company acquired the DiverseyLever business—the institutional and industrial cleaning and sanitation business of Unilever. In addition, with specified exceptions, the Company and its
6

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
(unaudited)
parent, Holdings, assumed liabilities to the extent relating to, or arising out of, the DiverseyLever business. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
The Company believes that the acquisition provided opportunities for revenue growth and cost savings through the integration of the DiverseyLever business. In addition, the integration of the DiversityLever business lines provided cross-selling opportunities due to their businesses’ complementary product offerings and geographic footprint. The acquisition greatly increased the Company’s network of international distributors and the size of its direct sales force, thus broadening the Company’s global access to existing and new end-users. The Company also believes that it can obtain significant cost savings from the rationalization of manufacturing plants, consolidation of physical distribution infrastructure and reduction of overlap in back-office and administrative functions. These factors contributed to a purchase price for the DiverseyLever business that resulted in the recognition of goodwill.
The Company continues the process of settlement and conclusion on purchase price allocation and adjustments associated with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business. The following represents a reconciliation of the preliminary allocation of purchase price from January 3, 2003 through October 3, 2003:

(a) | During the three months ended October 3, 2003, the Company and Unilever reached settlement and the Company received $4,396 from Unilever in consideration of certain administrative and management costs retained by the Company, but not contemplated in the determination of the original cash purchase price. The cash adjustment was recorded as a reduction of purchase price and acquisition goodwill. Further adjustments are not expected. |
(b) | The Company recorded additional transaction-related costs of $2,163 during the six months ended July 4, 2003, which were accounted for as an increase to acquisition goodwill. The Company does not expect further adjustment to goodwill as it relates to transaction-related costs. |
(c) | During the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003, the pension adjustment—fully funded was increased by $18,278 and $12,245, respectively, relative to revisions to preliminary estimates.

The Company received approximately $3,045 and $15,645 during the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003, respectively, in partial and preliminary settlement of pension full-funding adjustments agreed with Unilever. The Company expects further settlements during the fourth quarter ended December 2003 and through the second quarter of fiscal 2004.
(d) | The purchase agreement provides for the indemnification of certain tax liabilities included in net tangible assets acquired. During the three months ended July 4, 2003, the Company recorded an estimated receivable from Unilever of $3,419 and reduced the total purchase price. During the three months ended October 3, 2003, the Company adjusted the estimated receivable to $5,756. Further adjustments are expected to be finalized and agreed with Unilever by December 2003 and are, accordingly, subject to change. |
(e) | The Company recorded additional restructuring liabilities of $21,758 (see Note 11) and associated deferred taxes of $4,956 during the six months ended July 4, 2003. The Company also recorded $1,700 of additional environmental reserves in the three months ended July 4, 2003 in adjustment of previous estimates. |
In addition, the Company increased net tangible assets acquired by $11,827 in the three months ended July 4, 2003 to properly reflect fair value and adjustment of previous estimates.
In the nine months ended October 3, 2003, the Company decreased net tangible assets acquired by $973 in clarification of tax liabilities identified in (d), and $1,783 relating to revisions to pension liabilities, net of related deferred tax assets, identified in (c).
Based on the preliminary determination of the working capital adjustment to subscription price, the Company recorded a receivable and corresponding reduction in purchase price of $36,540 as of January 3, 2003, which remains unchanged as of October 3, 2003. The Company and Unilever have continued the settlement process and anticipate finalization by December 2003.

9.Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
In April 2003, the Company acquired the shares of National Brands, Inc. for $2,665. The primary assets acquired were intellectual property rights to certain industrial tradenames. In addition, the Company entered into non-compete arrangements with the sellers. The Company did not record goodwill as a result of this transaction. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Operations are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition.
In October 2003, the Company acquired certain net assets of Southwest Auto-Chlor System L.P., a dealership that markets and sells kitchen, laundry and housekeeping products and services, for approximately $13,900. The Company expects to assign a majority of the purchase price to customer lists and related contracts. Operations will be included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Divestitures
In March 2003, the Company disposed of a non-strategic logistics service business in Japan for approximately $835 and the assumption of net liabilities by the purchaser of approximately $460. The net gain of $1,295 was included as a component of other (income) expense in the consolidated statement of income for the three months ended April 4, 2003.
In May 2003, the Company and a joint venture partner determined that they would dissolve a non-strategic business involved in the development and distribution of cleaning machines. The Company recorded a net loss of $1,119 as a component of other (income) expense in the consolidated statement of income for the three months ended July 4, 2003. The Company does not expect further disposal costs.
In September 2003, the Company disposed of a non-strategic machine warewash and kitchen hygiene products business in Norway for approximately $153. A net loss of $496 was included as a component of other (income) expense in the consolidated statement of income for the three months ended October 3, 2003.
The disposed businesses were part of larger cash-flow generating groups and were therefore not reported as discontinued operations.
10.Accounts Receivable Securitization
The Company and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries entered into an agreement (the “Receivables Facility”) in March 2001 whereby they sell on a continuous basis certain domestic trade receivables to a wholly owned, consolidated special purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary (“JWPRC”) of the Company. JWPRC was formed for the sole purpose of buying and selling receivables generated by the Company and the U.S. subsidiaries party to the agreement. JWPRC in turn sells an undivided interest in the total domestic accounts receivable to a nonconsolidated financial institution (the “Conduit”) for an amount equal to the percentage of total domestic receivables deemed eligible. The amounts of the beneficial interest of accounts receivable sold under these arrangements are excluded from accounts receivable in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. On August 29, 2003, the Receivables Facility was amended to include certain additional U.S. subsidiaries, expanding the total potential for securitization of trade receivables to $75,000 from the previous limit of $55,000. The term of the Receivables Facility was also changed to 354 days from the date of closing, renewable without fee.
As of October 3, 2003, and January 3, 2003, the Conduit held $62,800 and $35,900, respectively, of accounts receivable that are not included in the accounts receivable balance reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The Company had a retained interest of $48,180 and $20,701 in receivables of JWPRC as of October 3, 2003, and January 3, 2003, respectively. The retained interest is included in the accounts receivable balance reflected in the consolidated balance sheet at estimated fair value.
11.Restructuring Liabilities
During fiscal year 2002, in connection with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business, the Company recorded liabilities for the involuntary termination of former DiverseyLever employees and other exit costs associated with former DiverseyLever facilities (“exit plans”). During the six months ended July 4, 2003, the Company recognized liabilities of $18,224 for the involuntary termination of 299 additional former DiverseyLever employees and $3,534 for additional other exit costs, which were recorded as an adjustment to purchase accounting. The Company does not expect to record further adjustments to these liabilities.
The Company’s exit plans provide for the planned termination of 1,299 employees, of which 973 and 471 were actually terminated as of October 3, 2003 and January 3, 2003, respectively.

Additionally, the Company developed plans to restructure certain facilities that it owned prior to the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business (“restructuring plans”), primarily for the purpose of eliminating redundancies resulting from the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business. During fiscal year 2002, in connection with these restructuring plans, the Company recorded liabilities for the involuntary termination of pre-acquisition employees and other restructuring costs associated with pre-acquisition facilities. During the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003, the Company recognized liabilities of $2,833 and $12,944 for the involuntary termination of 15 and 114 additional pre-acquisition employees and $989 and $4,179 for additional other restructuring costs, respectively, which were recorded as restructuring expenses in accordance with SFAS No. 146 (see Note 3).
The Company’s restructuring plans provide for the planned termination of 339 pre-acquisition employees, of which 314 and 151 were actually terminated as of October 3, 2003 and January 3, 2003, respectively.

13.Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal actions and proceedings in the normal course of business. Although litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the ultimate exposure with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained, the Company does not believe the final outcome of any current litigation will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company has purchase commitments for materials, supplies, and property, plant and equipment incidental to the ordinary conduct of business. In the aggregate, such commitments are not in excess of current market prices. Additionally, the Company normally commits to some level of marketing related expenditures that extend beyond the fiscal year. These marketing expenses are necessary in order to maintain a normal course of business and the risk associated with them is limited. It is not expected that these commitments will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company maintains environmental reserves for remediation and monitoring expenses at two of its domestic facilities. While the ultimate exposure at these sites continues to be evaluated, the Company does not anticipate a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In connection with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business, the Company conducted environmental assessments and investigations at DiverseyLever facilities in various countries. These investigations disclosed the likelihood of soil and/or groundwater contamination, or potential environmental regulatory matters. The Company continues to evaluate the nature and extent of the identified contamination and is preparing plans to address the contamination. An estimate of costs has been made based on the expected extent of contamination and the expected likelihood of recovery for some of these costs from Unilever under the purchase agreement. Based on the estimate process, the Company recorded a liability of $10,100 during fiscal year 2002 and increased the liability to $11,800 during the quarter ended July 4, 2003. To the extent that contamination is determined to be in violation of local environmental laws, the Company intends to seek recovery under indemnification clauses contained in the purchase agreement.
In connection with the acquisition of DiverseyLever, Holdings entered into a stockholders’ agreement with its stockholders, Holdco and Marga B.V. Under the stockholders’ agreement, at any time after May 3, 2007, Holdings has the option to purchase, and Unilever has the right to require Holdings to purchase, the shares of Holdings and Senior Discount Notes of Holdings then beneficially owned by Unilever. If, after May 3, 2010, Holdings is unable to fulfill its obligations in connection with the put option, Unilever may require Holdings to take certain actions, including selling certain assets of the Company.
Under the stockholders’ agreement, Holdings may be required to make payments to Unilever in each year from 2007 through 2010 so long as Unilever continues to beneficially own 5% or more of Holdings’ outstanding shares. The amount of each payment will be equal to 25% of the amount by which the cumulative cash flows of Holdings and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, for the period from the closing of the acquisition through the end of the fiscal year preceding the payment (not including any cash flow with respect to which Unilever received payment in a prior year), exceeds $727,500 in 2006, $975,000 in 2007, $1,200,000 in 2008 or $1,425,000 in 2009. The aggregate amount of these payments cannot exceed $100,000. Payment of these amounts, which may be funded with cash flows generated by the Company, is subject to compliance with the agreements relating to Holdings and the Company’s senior indebtedness including, without limitation, the senior secured credit facilities, the senior subordinated notes and the Senior Discount Notes of Holdings.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis includes a review of our results for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003. On May 3, 2002, we acquired DiverseyLever, an institutional and industrial cleaning and sanitation business, from Conopco, Inc., a subsidiary of Unilever PLC and Unilever N.V. As a result of the acquisition, our results for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2003 include the results of the DiverseyLever business, which due to the date of the acquisition, are not included fully in the results of the nine months ended September 27, 2002. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the transition of the institutional and industrial Unilever consumer brands business to a sales agency relationship with JohnsonDiversey after closing and the manner in which the DiverseyLever business was operated as a division of Unilever and not as a stand-alone business, comparative information for the acquired DiverseyLever business does not exist. Because of these factors and the extent to which integration of the businesses has occurred, historical comparisons for the nine month periods are of limited relevance. However, historical comparisons are relevant for the three month periods ending October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002.
The acquisition significantly increased the size and scope of our operations and is the primary driver of the changes in each financial category discussed below for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 as compared to the nine months ended September 27, 2002. Except as noted, changes detailed below describe significant events that are unrelated to the acquisition.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the accounting policies that are most critical to our financial condition and results of operations and involve management’s judgment and/or evaluation of inherent uncertain factors are as follows:
Revenue Recognition.We recognize revenue on product sales at the time title transfers to the customer. We record an estimated reduction to revenue for customer discount programs and incentive offerings, including allowances and other volume-based incentives. If market conditions were to decline, we may take actions to increase customer incentive offerings, possibly resulting in a reduction of gross profit margins in the period during which the incentive is offered.
In arriving at net sales, we estimate the amounts of sales deductions likely to be earned by customers in conjunction with incentive programs such as volume rebates and other discounts. Such estimates are based on written agreements and historical trends and are reviewed periodically for possible revision based on changes in facts and estimates.
Estimating Reserves and Allowances. Management estimates inventory reserves based on periodic reviews of our inventory balances to identify slow-moving or obsolete items. This determination is based on a number of factors, including new product introductions, changes in customer demand patterns, and historic usage trends. Further, management estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts by analyzing accounts receivable balances by age, applying historical trend rates, analyzing market conditions and specifically reserving for identified customer balances, based on known facts, that are deemed probable as uncollectible.
Management’s current estimated ranges of liabilities relating to litigation and environmental claims are based on management’s best estimate of future costs. We record those costs based on what management believes is the most probable amount of the liability within the ranges or, where no amount within the range is a better estimate of the potential liability, at the minimum amount.
17
Pension and Post-Retirement Benefits. We sponsor pension and post-retirement plans in various countries, including the United States, which are separately funded. Several statistical and judgmental factors, which attempt to anticipate future events, are used in calculating the expense and liability related to the plans. These factors include assumptions about the discount rate, expected return on plan assets, rate of future compensation increases and healthcare cost trends, as determined by us and our actuaries. In addition, our actuarial consultants also use subjective factors, such as withdrawal and mortality rates, to estimate these factors. The actuarial assumptions used by us may differ materially from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions, higher or lower withdrawal rates, longer or shorter life spans of participants and changes in actual costs of healthcare. Actual results may significantly affect the amount of pension and other post-retirement benefit expenses recorded by us.
Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets. In accordance with SFAS Nos. 142 and 144, management periodically reviews its long-lived assets, including intangible assets and goodwill, for impairment and assesses whether significant events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the anticipated future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded, if any, is calculated by the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its estimated fair value. Management also periodically reassesses the estimated remaining useful lives of its long-lived assets. Changes to estimated useful lives would impact the amount of depreciation and amortization expense recorded in our financial statements. As of December 28, 2002, we completed a fair value impairment analysis as required by SFAS No. 142 and anticipated future undiscounted cash flows analysis as required by SFAS No. 144. Based on these assessments, no impairments were identified during the three months ended October 3, 2003.
For an additional discussion of new accounting standards, see note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Three Months Ended October 3, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended September 27, 2002
Net sales increased by $57.4 million, or 8.5%, to $731.4 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $674.0 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar ($40.9 million) and higher professional segment net sales in Europe ($11.2 million) and Japan ($1.8 million) from new customer growth and cross-selling efforts to the historic customer base of the former DiverseyLever and S.C. Johnson Commercial Markets businesses. Included in the net sales is sales agency fee income of $21.8 million each for the three months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, which was earned under a sales agency agreement entered into with Unilever in connection with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business on May 3, 2002.
Net sales for the professional segment increased by $54.4 million, or 8.9%, to $664.3 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $609.9 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002. The strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar positively impacted net sales by $37.9 million. Excluding this positive currency impact, net sales of the professional segment for the three months ended October 3, 2003 grew by $16.5 million, or 2.7%, from net sales for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to growth in Europe from strong cross-selling efforts to the historic customer base of the former DiverseyLever and S.C. Johnson Commercial Markets businesses ($11.2 million) and higher net sales in Japan from the addition of new customers and the continued introduction of new service business models to existing customers ($1.8 million).
Net sales for the polymer segment of $71.4 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003, including intercompany sales to the professional segment of $4.3 million, increased by $2.8 million, or 4.1%, from $68.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. Excluding the positive currency effect, sales were impacted primarily by a decline in average selling prices related to competitive market pressures and weakened demand in Europe and the sale of more lower margin commodity products, partially offset by volume growth of 3.0%, mainly in Asia Pacific, North America and Japan.
18
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $21.7 million, or 7.0%, to $331.2 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $309.5 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, while gross profit margin decreased slightly to 45.3% for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from 45.9% for the three months ended September 27, 2002. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the sales growth as noted above, partially offset by a decline in gross profit for the polymer segment, as discussed below.
The professional segment’s gross profit increased by $22.6 million, or 7.9%, to $309.5 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $286.9 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the sales growth as noted above. Gross profit margin decreased to 46.6% for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from 47.0% for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to an increase in profit-in-inventory reserves, adjustments to customer rebate accruals and a write-down of equipment.
The polymer segment’s gross profit decreased by $0.9 million, or 4.1%, to $21.7 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $22.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, and gross profit margin decreased to 32.3% for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from 35.2% for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to a decline in average selling prices ($2.9 million) and higher raw material costs ($0.8 million).
Marketing, Administrative and General Expenses. Marketing, administrative and general expenses increased by $19.5 million, or 8.0%, to $264.2 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $244.7 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar ($14.7 million) and additional capitalized software amortization resulting from the implementation of IT projects ($3.7 million). Integration-related costs of $5.3 million were incurred during the three months ended October 3, 2003, consisting primarily of employee relocation and recruiting and facility-related costs, a decrease of $2.2 million from the three months ended September 27, 2002.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased to $17.3 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $15.5 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar ($1.0 million) and an increase in resources devoted to development projects.
Restructuring and Integration. We have initiated an extensive restructuring and integration program in connection with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business. Under this program, specified costs associated with the closure of former DiverseyLever operations and the involuntary termination of former DiverseyLever employees (“exit costs”) are recorded as purchase accounting adjustments. Costs under the program associated with the closure of specified pre-acquisition operations and the involuntary terminations of pre-acquisition employees (“restructuring costs”) are recorded as restructuring expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Also incurred under the program are costs related to the acquisition which do not meet the definition of exit costs or restructuring costs. Those costs are included in marketing, administrative and general expenses in the consolidated statement of income (“period costs”).
During the three months ended October 3, 2003, related to restructurings and integration actions, we recorded $0.6 million of restructuring costs and $5.3 million of marketing, administrative and general expenses in our consolidated statement of income. These costs consisted of information technology projects in Europe, Latin America and North America and involuntary termination and other costs incurred at our corporate headquarters as we began the process of restructuring the research and development function.
A summary of all costs associated with the restructuring and integration program for the three months ended October 3, 2003 and from inception is outlined below. The reserve balance shown below reflects the aggregate reserves for restructuring costs.

Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense decreased by $1.1 million, or 3.3%, to $30.7 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $31.8 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the reduction in total debt outstanding.
Other Income/Expense, Net. Other net expense decreased by $0.9 million to $0.7 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $1.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due a reduction of $1.2 million in net losses related to foreign currency exchange and the ineffective portion of derivative financial instruments, partially offset by a $0.5 million loss on the divestiture of a non-strategic business.
Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes increased by $5.6 million to $7.3 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $1.7 million of income taxes for the three months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to higher income before taxes. The higher effective tax rate of 41.0% for the three months ended October 3, 2003 compared to 22.9% for the three months ended September 27, 2002 was primarily due to two factors; first, the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 27, 2002 was purposely lowered as a year-to-date adjustment recorded in this period reduced the effective tax rate to a full-year forecast rate and second, the effective tax rate for the three months ended October 3, 2003 was higher due to not providing a current tax benefit for certain foreign tax losses which are not expected to be utilized prior to expiration.
Net Income. Net income increased by $4.7 million, or 82.0%, to $10.4 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $5.7 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002. This increase in net income was primarily due to a $21.6 million increase in gross profit driven by the incremental net sales and a $8.1 million decrease in restructuring expense, partially offset by a $19.5 million increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses and a $5.6 million increase in provision for income taxes, all as previously discussed. In addition to the $0.6 million restructuring expense, expenses of $5.3 million of integration-related costs are included in the marketing, administrative and general expenses, a decrease of $2.2 million compared to the three months ended September 27, 2002.
We define EBITDA as net income before minority interests, plus the provision for income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, and you should not consider EBITDA as an alternative to (a) operating profit (loss) or net income (loss) as a measure of our operating performance or (b) cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our ability to meet cash needs.
EBITDA increased by $13.7 million, or 18.4%, to $87.8 million for the three months ended October 3, 2003 from $74.1 million for the three months ended September 27, 2002. The increase in EBITDA was primarily due to a $21.6 million increase in gross profit driven by the incremental net sales and a $8.1 million decrease in restructuring expense, partially offset by a $19.5 million increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses, all as previously discussed.

Our management considers EBITDA to be a useful tool for managing the operations of our business. In addition, various financial covenants contained in our senior secured credit facilities are based on EBITDA, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of the facilities, and various financial covenants contained in the indentures for our senior subordinated notes are based on consolidated cash flows, which is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated similarly to EBITDA. Our management also considers EBITDA to be useful in assessing our debt servicing ability. A further discussion and a table reconciling Net Income to EBITDA is included at the end of the discussion of the nine month period comparisons.
Nine Months Ended October 3, 2003 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 27, 2002
Net sales increased by $683 million, or 45.3%, to $2.2 billion for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $1.5 billion for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business on May 3, 2002 and the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar ($100.7 million). Included in net sales is sales agency fee income of $66.0 million and $34.1 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively, which was earned under a sales agency agreement entered into with Unilever on May 3, 2002 in connection with the acquisition.
Net sales for the professional segment increased by $665 million, or 50.3%, to $2.0 billion for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $1.3 billion for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to net sales attributable to acquisition of the DiverseyLever business and the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the dollar ($89.0 million).
Net sales for the polymer segment of $216.1 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003, including intercompany sales to the professional segment of $15.0 million, increased by $18.5 million, or 9.4%, from $197.6 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar ($11.7 million) and volume growth of 6.8%, mainly in Asia Pacific and North America, partially offset by a decline in average selling prices resulting from an unfavorable product and geographical mix reflecting reduced demand for higher priced specialty polymers and faster growth in the Asia Pacific region, which has lower average selling prices than in other markets.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $311.4 million, or 45.6%, to $994.9 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $683.5 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, and gross profit margin increased slightly to 45.4% for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from 45.3% for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business and the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. Integration-related costs of $2.4 million were incurred in cost of sales during the nine months ended October 3, 2003, consisting of inventory reserve provisions and relocation costs.
The professional segment’s gross profit increased by $312.6 million, or 50.8%, to $928.5 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $615.9 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the sales growth as noted above. Gross profit margin increased to 46.7% for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from 46.5% for the nine months ended September 27, 2002.
The polymer segment’s gross profit decreased by $1.2 million, or 1.9%, to $66.4 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $67.6 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, and gross profit margin decreased to 33.0% for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from 36.9% for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to higher raw material costs and the decline in global average selling prices, partially offset by the sales volume increase discussed above.
Marketing, Administrative and General Expenses. Marketing, administrative and general expenses increased by $270.1 million, or 51.0%, to $799.4 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $529.3 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business and the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. Integration-related costs of $28.3 million were incurred on marketing, administrative and
21
general expenses during the nine months ended October 3, 2003, consisting primarily of non-severance employee and facility-related costs, an increase of $16.3 million compared to the nine months ended September 27, 2002.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $9.3 million, or 21.3%, to $52.8 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $43.5 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to incremental expenses attributable to the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business and the strengthening of the euro and certain other foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar.
Restructuring and Integration. We have initiated an extensive restructuring and integration program in connection with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business. Under this program, specified costs associated with the closure of former DiverseyLever operations and the involuntary termination of former DiverseyLever employees are recorded as purchase accounting adjustments. Costs under the program associated with the closure of specified pre-acquisition operations and the involuntary terminations of pre-acquisition employees are recorded as restructuring expenses in the consolidated statement of income. Also incurred under the program are costs related to the acquisition which do not meet the definition of exit costs or restructuring costs. Those costs are included in marketing, administrative and general expenses in the consolidated statement of income.
During the nine months ended October 3, 2003, we recorded $21.8 million of exit costs as purchase accounting adjustments, $13.9 million of restructuring costs and $30.7 million of period costs in our consolidated statement of income. These costs consisted of involuntary termination and other costs incurred in the United Kingdom and certain global functions associated with the consolidation of operations, the consolidation of North American supply chain operations, the restructuring of the United Kingdom sales force, the consolidation of back-office operations in Japan, the implementation of an early retirement program in Japan and IT projects in Western Europe, Latin America, Japan and our corporate headquarters.
A summary of all costs associated with the restructuring and integration program for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 and from inception is outlined below. The reserve balance shown below reflects the aggregate reserves for restructuring costs.

Interest Expense, Net. Net interest expense increased by $38.7 million, or 70.4%, to $93.8 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $55.1 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. To fund the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business in May 2002, we incurred $1.4 billion of debt under the senior secured credit facilities and the senior subordinated notes. Due to the timing of the borrowings, the increased debt level was in place for only five of the nine months ended September 27, 2002 versus the entire nine month period ended October 3, 2003.
Other Income/Expense. Other net income decreased by $18.8 million to $2.4 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $21.2 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. The other income for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 consisted primarily of a $2.2 million net gain on
22
foreign currency translation and the ineffective portion of derivative financial instruments and a $0.8 million net gain on the sale of certain product lines, partially offset by a $1.1 million loss on the dissolution of a partnership. Other income for the nine months ended September 27, 2002 consisted primarily of a $15.7 million hedging transaction gain on a forward-purchase contract of euros related to the acquisition of DiverseyLever and a $9.6 million gain on the sale of a non-strategic dishwashing detergent product line, partially offset by a $3.1 million loss on the devaluation of the Argentine peso.
Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes decreased by $7.7 million to $15.4 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $23.1 million of income taxes for the nine months ended September 27, 2002, primarily due to lower income before taxes, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate, which was 41.0% for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 compared to 35.0% for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. The higher effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 was primarily due to not providing a current tax benefit for certain foreign tax losses which are not expected to be utilized prior to expiration.
Net Income. Net income decreased by $21.1 million, or 49.0%, to $22.0 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $43.1 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. This decrease in net income was due primarily to a $270.1 million increase in marketing, administrative and general expenses, a $9.3 million increase in research and development costs, a $3.0 million increase in restructuring expenses, a $38.7 million increase in net interest expense, and a $18.8 million decrease in other income, partially offset by a $311.4 million increase in gross profit driven by the incremental DiverseyLever net sales, and a $7.7 million reduction in the provision for income taxes, all as previously discussed. In addition to the $13.9 million restructuring expense, expenses of $30.7 million of integration-related costs are included in the cost of sales or marketing, administrative and general expenses discussed above, an increase of $18.7 million compared to the nine months ended September 27, 2002.
We define EBITDA as net income before minority interests, plus the provision for income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, and you should not consider EBITDA as an alternative to (a) operating profit (loss) or net income (loss) as a measure of our operating performance or (b) cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our ability to meet cash needs.
EBITDA increased by $58.7 million to $247.7 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003 from $189.0 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. The increase in EBITDA resulted primarily from a $311.4 million increase in gross profit resulting from the increased net sales, partially offset by a $270.1 million increase in marketing, administrative and general expenses, a $9.3 million increase in research and development expense, a $18.8 million decrease in other income, and a $3.0 million increase in restructuring expenses, all as previously discussed. Of these cost increases, $48.5 million are related to higher depreciation and amortization expense which do not impact EBITDA.
Our management considers EBITDA to be a useful tool for managing the operations of our business. In addition, various financial covenants contained in our senior secured credit facilities are based on EBITDA, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of the facilities, and various financial covenants contained in the indentures for our senior subordinated notes are based on consolidated cash flows, which is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated similarly to EBITDA. Our management also considers EBITDA to be useful in assessing our debt servicing ability.
We also believe that EBITDA is a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure of a company’s operating performance and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization, which can vary significantly depending upon accounting methods or non-operating factors (such as historical cost). Accordingly, we believe that the inclusion of EBITDA in our quarterly report permits a more comprehensive analysis of our operating performance relative to other companies and of our debt servicing ability. Because all companies do not calculate EBITDA identically, the presentation of EBITDA in this quarterly report may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
23
We believe that net income is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that is most directly comparable to EBITDA. The following table reconciles net income to EBITDA for each of the periods for which EBITDA is presented in this quarter report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Comparison of Nine Months Ended October 3, 2003 and Nine Months ended September 27, 2002. Cash flows provided by operating activities were $161.7 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003, compared to $118.4 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. The increase in net cash provided from operating activities of $43.3 million during the nine months ended October 3, 2003 was primarily due to increases in depreciation and amortization expense ($51.9 million) resulting from the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business and increased proceeds from accounts receivable securitization programs ($28.4 million), partially offset by a reduction of net income ($21.1 million) and a $25.8 million net decrease in cash resulting from a net increase in operating assets and liabilities.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $81.5 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003, compared to $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. The reduction in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the impact of the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business, partially offset by a $36.5 million increase in capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment and computer software.
The characteristics of our business do not generally require us to make significant ongoing capital expenditures. We made capital expenditures of about $70.8 million in the nine months ended October 3, 2003, of which $32.0 million were in support of the integration/synergy efforts. We may make significant cash expenditures in the next few years in an effort to further capitalize on anticipated revenue growth and cost savings opportunities associated with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business, and to continue and, in some cases, expand on certain DiverseyLever pre-acquisition restructuring initiatives.
Cash flows used in financing activities were $111.0 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2003, compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 27, 2002. This change in net cash flows from financing activities was primarily due to the proceeds from long-term borrowings and capital contributions related to the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business.
Overview. As a result of the acquisition, we have a significant amount of indebtedness. On May 3, 2002, in connection with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business, we issued senior subordinated notes and entered into a $1.2 billion senior secured credit facility. We used the proceeds of the sale of the senior subordinated notes and initial borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities, together with other available funds, to finance the cash portion of the purchase price for the DiverseyLever business and the related fees and expenses and to refinance then-existing indebtedness.
The senior secured credit facility was amended in August 2003. This amendment reduced the interest rate payable with respect to specified tranches of debt under the credit facility, thereby reducing borrowing costs over the remaining life of the credit facilities. In addition, the amendment increased specified credit limits and changed various administrative requirements to provide us greater operating flexibility. As of October 3, 2003, we had total indebtedness of about $1.4 billion, consisting of $558
24
million of notes, $818 million of borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities and $52 million in short-term credit lines, as well as $179 million in operating lease commitments.
We have the capacity to borrow additional funds under the senior secured credit facilities, subject to compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the facilities. As of October 3, 2003, we had $8.1 million of indebtedness outstanding under the revolving portion of the senior secured credit facilities and the ability to incur an additional $305 million of indebtedness under those revolving facilities, of which we believe we would have been able to borrow $176 million and still be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the senior secured credit facilities, the indentures for the senior subordinated notes and the indenture for the senior discount notes of JohnsonDiversey Holdings, Inc.
During the nine months ended October 3, 2003, we repaid $25 million of the principal amount outstanding under the term loan portion of the senior secured credit facilities. In addition, we are considering the divestiture of certain non-strategic businesses, which could generate an additional $140 to $175 million available for debt reduction over the next four quarters, including the previously disclosed sale of the Whitmire Micro-Gen pest control business. As of October 3, 2003, we had the following long-term debt agreements and operating leases with non-cancelable terms in excess of one year, excluding the indebtedness associated with the receivables securitization.

We believe that the cash flows from operations, the anticipated cost savings and operating improvements associated with the acquisition of the DiverseyLever business and our restructuring initiatives, together with available cash, available borrowings under the senior secured credit facilities and the proceeds from our receivables securitization facility will be sufficient to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to achieve the anticipated cost savings or that our substantial indebtedness will not adversely affect our financial condition.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. Since March 2001, we have funded a portion of our short-term liquidity needs through the securitization of some of our trade accounts receivable. We and some of our U.S. subsidiaries are parties to an agreement whereby we and each participating subsidiary sell, on a continuous basis, all trade receivables to JWPR Corporation (“JWPRC”), a wholly owned, special purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary formed for the sole purpose of buying and selling receivables. Under the receivables facility, we and some of our subsidiaries, irrevocably and without recourse, transfer all trade receivables to JWPRC. JWPRC, in turn, sells an undivided interest in these receivables to Falcon Asset Management Corporation for an amount equal to the value of all eligible receivables (as defined under the receivables sale agreement) less the applicable reserve.
On August 29, 2003, the receivables securitization facility was amended to include certain additional U.S. subsidiaries, expanding the total potential for securitization of trade receivables to $75,000 from the previous limit of $55,000. The term of the receivables securitization facility was also changed to 354 days from the date of closing, renewable without fee. As of October 3, 2003, about $62.8 million of eligible receivables (net of reserves) have been sold under our receivables securitization facility. For the three months ended October 3, 2003, JWPRC’s cost of borrowing under the receivables securitization facility is at a weighted average rate of about 1.95% per annum, which is significantly lower than our incremental borrowing rate.
25
Under the terms of the senior secured credit facilities, we must use any future net proceeds from the securitization facility first to prepay loans outstanding under the senior secured credit facilities. In addition, the net amount of trade receivables at any time outstanding under this and any other securitization facility that we may enter into may not exceed $150 million in the aggregate.
Under the terms of the senior secured credit facilities, we are subject to certain financial covenants. The most restrictive covenants under the senior secured credit facilities require us to meet the following targets and ratios:
Maximum Leverage Ratio. We are required to maintain a leverage ratio for each financial covenant period of no more than the maximum ratio specified in the senior secured credit facilities for that financial covenant period. The maximum leverage ratio is the ratio of (1) our consolidated indebtedness (excluding up to $55 million of indebtedness incurred under our securitization facility and indebtedness relating to specified interest rate hedge agreements) as of the last day of a financial covenant period using a weighted-average exchange rate for the relevant fiscal quarter to (2) our consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the senior secured credit facilities, for that same financial covenant period.
The senior secured credit facilities require that we maintain a leverage ratio of no more than the ratio set forth below for each of the financial covenant periods ending nearest the corresponding date set forth below:
| | Maximum Leverage Ratio
|
September 30, 2003 | | 4.75 to 1 |
December 31, 2003 | | 4.25 to 1 |
March 31, 2004 | | 4.00 to 1 |
June 30, 2004 | | 3.75 to 1 |
September 30, 2004 | | 3.50 to 1 |
December 31, 2004 | | 3.25 to 1 |
March 31, 2005 to December 31, 2005 | | 2.75 to 1 |
March 31, 2006 and thereafter | | 2.50 to 1 |
Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. We are required to maintain an interest coverage ratio for each financial covenant period of no less than the minimum ratio specified in the senior secured credit facilities for that financial covenant period. The minimum interest coverage ratio is the ratio of (1) our consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the senior secured credit facilities, for a financial covenant period to (2) our cash interest expense for the same financial covenant period.
The senior secured credit facilities require that we maintain an interest coverage ratio of no less than the ratio set forth below for each of the financial covenant periods ending nearest the corresponding date set forth below:
| | Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio

Compliance with Maximum Leverage Ratio and Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio. For our financial covenant period ended on October 3, 2003, we were in compliance with the maximum leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio covenants contained in the senior secured credit facilities.

Capital Expenditures. The senior secured credit facilities prohibit us from making capital expenditures during any calendar year nearest the corresponding date set forth below in an amount exceeding the following:
| | Maximum Capital Expenditures (dollars in thousands)
|
December 31, 2003 | | $ | 161,200 |
December 31, 2004 | | $ | 122,600 |
December 31, 2005 | | $ | 107,000 |
December 31, 2006 | | $ | 110,000 |
December 31, 2007 | | $ | 113,200 |
Beginning in calendar year 2003, however, we can exceed in a year the maximum capital expenditures limitation set forth above for that year by the amount, if any, by which the limitation set forth above for the previous year exceeded actual capital expenditures made in that previous year. As of October 3, 2003, we were in compliance with the limitation on capital expenditures for calendar year 2003.
ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a result of our acquisition of the DiverseyLever business, we have a significant amount of indebtedness. On May 3, 2002, in connection with the acquisition, we issued senior subordinated notes and entered into $1.2 billion senior secured credit facilities. Market risk exposure as it relates to interest and currency rates, as discussed below, has changed materially when compared to the first quarter of the fiscal year 2002.
Interest Rate Risk
As of October 3, 2003, we had about $1.4 billion of debt outstanding under our credit facilities. After giving effect to the interest rate swap transactions that we have entered into with respect to some of the borrowings under our credit facilities, $429 million of the debt outstanding remained subject to variable rates. In addition, as of October 3, 2003, we had approximately $18 million of debt outstanding under foreign lines of credit, all of which were subject to variable rates. Accordingly, our earnings and cash flows are affected by changes in interest rates. At the above level of variable rate borrowings, we do not anticipate a significant impact on earnings in the event of a reasonable change in interest rates. In the event of an adverse change in interest rates, management would likely take actions that would mitigate our exposure to interest rate risk; however, due to the uncertainty of the actions and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no such action. Further, this analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of the overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.
Foreign Currency Risk
We conduct our business in various regions of the world and export and import products to and from many countries. Our operations may, therefore, be subject to volatility because of currency fluctuations, inflation changes and changes in political and economic conditions in these countries. Sales and expenses are frequently denominated in local currencies, and results of operations may be affected adversely as currency fluctuations affect product prices and operating costs. We engage in hedging operations, including forward foreign exchange contracts, to reduce the exposure of our cash flows to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. All hedging instruments are designated and effective as hedges, in accordance with GAAP. Other instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are marked to market with changes recognized in current earnings. We do not engage in hedging for speculative investment reasons. There can be no assurance that our hedging operations will eliminate or substantially reduce risks associated with fluctuating currencies.
27
Based on our overall foreign exchange exposure, we estimate that a 10% change in the exchange rates would not materially affect our financial position and liquidity. The effect on our results of operations would be substantially offset by the impact of the hedged items.
ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of JohnsonDiversey’s Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls. As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (“Disclosure Controls”). The controls evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”).
CEO & CFO Certifications. Attached as exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this quarterly report are certifications of the CEO and the CFO required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 302 Certifications”). This portion of our quarterly report is our disclosure of the results of our controls evaluation referred to in paragraphs (4) and (5) of the Section 302 Certifications and should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Disclosure Controls and Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Disclosure Controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), such as this quarterly report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“Commission’s”) rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Disclosure Controls include those components of our internal control over financial reporting that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. To the extent that components of our internal control over financial reporting are included in our Disclosure Controls, they are included in the scope of our quarterly evaluation of Disclosure Controls.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. Our Disclosure Controls were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures would meet their objectives. Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the designed control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Scope of the Controls Evaluation. The evaluation of our Disclosure Controls included a review of the controls’ objectives and design, our implementation of the controls and the effect of the controls on the information generated for use in this quarterly report. In the course of the controls evaluation, we sought to identify data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, were undertaken. This evaluation is done on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions of management, including the CEO and the CFO, concerning the effectiveness of the controls can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and to supplement the disclosures made in our annual reports on Form 10-K. Many of the components of our Disclosure Controls are also evaluated on an ongoing basis by our internal audit department and by other personnel in our finance organization, as well
28
as our independent auditors in connection with their audit and review activities. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our Disclosure Controls and to make modifications as necessary; our intent in this regard is that the Disclosure Controls will be maintained as dynamic systems that change (including with improvements and corrections) as conditions warrant.
Among other matters, we sought in our evaluation to determine whether there were any “significant deficiencies” or “material weaknesses” in our internal control over financial reporting, or whether we had identified any acts of fraud involving personnel who have a significant role in our internal control over financial reporting. This information was important both for the controls evaluation generally and because items 4 and 5 in the Section 302 Certifications of the CEO and CFO require that the CEO and CFO disclose that information to our board of directors’ audit committee and to our independent auditors and report on related matters in this section of the quarterly report. In the professional auditing literature, “significant deficiencies” are referred to as “reportable conditions”; these are control issues that could have a significant adverse effect on the ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data in the financial statements. A “material weakness” is defined in the auditing literature as a particularly serious reportable condition where the internal control does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud may occur in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We also sought to deal with other controls matters in the controls evaluation, and in each case if a problem was identified, we considered what revision, improvement and/or correction to make in accordance with our on-going procedures.
During the controls evaluation performed prior to the filing of the Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended January 3, 2003, a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting in the former DiverseyLever North America operations was discovered to the effect that cash reconciliations were not being performed in a timely manner and the processing of vendor invoices had been delayed, resulting in a requirement for increased accruals for third party services. These weaknesses resulted from the transfer, in December 2002, of accounting operations from the former DiverseyLever operation based in Southfield, Michigan to our headquarters in Sturtevant, Wisconsin. In addition, we discovered that certain intercompany accounts were not being reconciled in a timely manner.
In the nine months ended October 3, 2003, we acted to correct and resolve the identified weakness relating to the processing of vender invoices in our North American operations by utilizing additional resources to clear the processing backlog. In addition, we have acted to correct the other identified weaknesses by utilizing additional resources to complete cash and intercompany reconciliations. We have implemented process improvements to facilitate timely intercompany reconciliations. Management will further strengthen internal control over financial reporting in these areas in the remainder of fiscal year 2003, will continue to evaluate and implement corrective actions to improve the effectiveness of our Disclosure Controls and will take further action as dictated by such continuing reviews. The actions being taken, and to be taken, by us to correct the weaknesses identified constitute, and will constitute, significant changes in internal control over financial reporting in the period covered by this quarterly report. These actions constitute the only changes to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting in this quarterly period.
Conclusions. Based upon the controls evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our Disclosure Controls, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, including the additional procedures performed and controls instituted by us to supplement our internal control over financial reporting in order to mitigate the effect of the weaknesses identified in this report, were effective at a reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
