Note 7. New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This pronouncement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the effect SFAS 157 will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB 108”), “Considering the effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” Traditionally, there have been two widely-recognized methods for quantifying the effects of financial statement misstatements: the “roll-over” method and the “iron curtain” method. The roll-over method focuses primarily on the impact of a misstatement on the statement of operations, including the reversing effect of prior year misstatements. The iron-curtain method focuses primarily on the effect of correcting the period-end balance sheet with less emphasis on the reversing effects of prior year errors on the statement of operations. In SAB 108, the SEC staff established an approach that is commonly referred to as a “dual approach” because it now requires quantification of errors under both the iron curtain and the roll-over methods. For the Company, SAB 108 is effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. The adoption of SAB 108 is not expected to have any effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN No. 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is evaluating the effect FIN 48 will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion includes forward-looking statements, including but not limited to, management’s expectations for competition, revenues, margin, expenses and other operating results; capital expenditures; liquidity; capital requirements, acquisitions and exchange rate fluctuations, each of which involves numerous risks and uncertainties. You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our audited consolidated financial statements (including the notes thereto) included in the Company’s Form S-4 filing with the SEC.
Overview of Our Business
We are a leading, United States-based value-added distributor of IT products to Latin America and the Caribbean. We distribute computer components, peripherals, software, computer systems, accessories, networking products and digital consumer electronics to more than 32,000 customers in 45 countries. We offer single source purchasing to our customers by providing an in-stock selection of more than 4,800 products from over 220 vendors, including the world’s leading IT product manufacturers. We believe that we are the second largest IT distributor in Latin American and the Caribbean based upon revenues and we believe we have the broadest in-country presence of any distributor of IT products to Latin America and the Caribbean. From our headquarters and main distribution center in Miami, we support a network of 24 sales and distribution operations in 13 countries throughout Latin America and the Caribbean.
The following events and developments have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations:
| • | Impact of price competition and vendor terms and conditions on margin. Historically, our gross profit margins have been impacted by price competition, as well as changes to vendor terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, reductions in product rebates and incentives, our ability to return inventory to manufacturers, and time periods during which vendors provide price protection. We expect these competitive pricing pressures and modifications to vendor terms and conditions to continue into the foreseeable future. We continuously refine our pricing strategy, inventory management processes and systems and manufacturer programs to attempt to mitigate these competitive pressures. |
| • | Macroeconomic trends and increased penetration of IT Products. Since 2003, the Latin American and Caribbean economies have benefited from relatively high levels of economic growth, which we believe have had a positive impact on overall demand for IT products. In particular, we have continued to benefit from rapid growth in PC penetration rates and internet penetration rates. Spending on IT products in Latin American grew at 6.5% per year on average for the period 1995 to 2005 and, according to IDC, is projected to grow 11.4% per year on average from 2005 to 2010. |
14
| • | Shift in revenue to in-country operations. One of our strategies is to expand the geographic presence of our in-country operations into areas we believe we can achieve higher gross margins than our Miami operations. Miami gross margins are generally lower than in-country gross margins because Miami is a more competitive market and because Miami’s customers, who are primarily other Miami-based IT distributors or large IT distributors and resellers located in Latin American or Caribbean markets, have larger average order quantities than customers of our in-country segment and as a result benefit from lower average prices. In-country revenue grew by 26.8% annually between 2001 and 2005, compared to growth in Miami revenue of 14.8% annually over the same period. In-country revenue accounted for 68.9% of consolidated revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This growth in our in-country operations reflects in part the growth in local market share generated by four of our distribution centers (El Salvador, Ecuador, Costa Rica and Jamaica) that were opened in 2000 and the Buenos Aires, Argentina distribution center that was opened in September 2003. Our acquisition of Centel in Mexico in June 2005 has further expanded our in-country presence. |
| • | Increased levels of indebtedness. In connection with the investment by CVC International in our company in August 2004 and our acquisition of Centel, we borrowed under our former senior secured credit facility and issued subordinated notes to certain of our current and former shareholders and former shareholders of Centel, increasing our leverage and our interest expense. Also, in August 2005, we issued $120.0 million of senior secured notes and used the proceeds to repay the outstanding principal balances on our senior secured credit facility and subordinated notes as well as pay a $20.0 million dividend to shareholders. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, our interest expense was $11.9 million, as compared to $12.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. |
| • | Centel acquisition. On June 23, 2005, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Centel for $14.0 million in cash, $3.0 million in non-voting common shares and $2.8 million in seller notes, representing aggregate consideration of $19.8 million. We believe that Centel is the third largest distributor of IT products in Mexico. For the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2006, Centel had revenues of $27.8 million and $77.7 million and net income of $1.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively. |
Results of Operations
We report our business in two segments based upon geographic location: in-country and Miami. The in-country segment includes sales from our in-country sales and distribution
15
centers, which have been aggregated since they have similar economic characteristics. The Miami segment includes sales from our Miami headquarters, including sales from Miami to our in-country sales and distribution centers and to resellers and distributors that may be located in countries where we have in-country operations.
Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2005
The following table sets forth line items of our consolidated statement of operations as a percentage of revenue for each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:
| | | | | | |
| | Percentage of Revenue Three Months ended Sept. 30, | |
| | 2006 | | | 2005 | |
Revenue | | 100.0 | % | | 100.0 | % |
Cost of sales | | 89.6 | % | | 90.0 | % |
Gross profit | | 10.4 | % | | 10.0 | % |
Operating expenses | | 6.6 | % | | 5.8 | % |
Operating income | | 3.8 | % | | 4.3 | % |
Income before taxes | | 2.4 | % | | 0.7 | % |
Income tax provision | | 0.6 | % | | (0.3 | )% |
Net Income | | 1.9 | % | | 1.0 | % |
Revenue
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, revenue increased to $227.3 million from $198.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 14.6%. The increase in revenue was due mainly to greater demand for notebooks of $8.7 million, memory of $6.4 million, monitors of $4.9 million, software of $4.5 million and printers of $4.4 million. In-country revenue increased to $158.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $134.3 million for the same period in the prior year, representing an increase of 17.8%. This revenue growth was driven mainly by the increased sales of notebooks, monitors and memory primarily in Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Mexico. Our in-country revenue accounted for 69.6% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to 67.7% of total revenue for the same period ended September 30, 2005. Miami revenue (net of sales to our in-country operations) increased to $69.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $64.8 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 6.7%. The increase in Miami revenue was primarily driven by increased sales of hard disk drives ($3.0 million), memory ($2.3 million) and software ($1.9 million) partially offset by lower sales of CPU products.
Gross Profit
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, gross profit increased to $23.6 million from $19.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 18.9% primarily as a result of the increased sales volume in our in-country operations. Consolidated
16
gross margin increased to 10.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from 10.0% for the same period in the prior year due primarily to the increased volume of notebook, memory and monitor sales. In-country gross profit increased to $14.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $12.4 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 20.2%. The increase in in-country gross profit was primarily attributable to the growth in sales in Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Mexico plus the higher margins attributed to notebooks, memory and monitors. Miami gross profit increased to $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $7.5 million in 2005, an increase of 15.5% due mainly to the increased volume of hard disk drives, memory and software sales.
Operating Income
Operating income increased slightly to $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $8.5 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 1.3%. This increase was primarily driven by the higher revenue and improved gross profit margins partially offset by higher operating expenses, mainly in Miami. In-country operating income increased to $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $4.7 million for the same period in 2005, an increase of 4.2%. This increase was driven by the higher revenue and associated gross profits primarily in Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Peru. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in our in-country operations increased to 6.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from 5.7% for the same period in 2005. This increase was mainly driven by personnel and warehouse expenses related to the opening of five additional in-country facilities in late 2005 and early 2006. Miami operating income declined slightly to $3.7 million from $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This decline was primarily driven by increased operating expenses related to warehouse and logistics expense, Sarbanes-Oxley compliance efforts, increased IT and Finance personnel and depreciation expense. Miami’s operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 7.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 5.7% for the same period in the prior year.
Other (Income) Expense
Other (income) expense decreased to $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 primarily driven by lower interest expense partially offset by lower foreign exchange gains in 2006 compared to 2005. Interest expense decreased to $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $8.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in interest expense was driven mainly by the absence of the $3.5 million in prepayment penalties and $2.2 million in capitalized debt issuance costs related to the Company’s senior bank debt with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. that were paid and written-off in August 2005. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, a foreign exchange gain of $0.6 million was realized compared to a gain of $1.6 million for the same period in the prior year. The foreign exchange gain was driven primarily by our operations in Colombia and Chile which experienced a revaluation of their local currency during the three month period ended September 30, 2006. The Colombian Peso revalued from 2,746.6 as of June 30, 2006 to 2,461.1 as of September 30, 2006, an improvement of 10.4%. The Chilean Peso experienced a revaluation of 6.2% during the third quarter of 2006, strengthening from 573.3 as of June 30, 2006 to 537.8 as of September 30, 2006.
17
Income Tax Provision
The provision for income taxes increased to $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from a credit of $0.6 million for the same period prior year. The increase was due mainly to higher pre-tax profits that resulted from the absence of the Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. prepayment penalty and capitalized debt issuance cost write-off in August 2005.
Net Income
Our net income increased to $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This improvement was driven mainly by the increase in operating income plus the reduction in interest expense partially offset by the lower foreign exchange gains and higher income tax provision in 2006.
Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005
The following table sets forth line items of our consolidated statement of operations as a percentage of revenue for each of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:
| | | | | | |
| | Percentage of Revenue Nine Months ended September 30, | |
| | 2006 | | | 2005 | |
Revenue | | 100.0 | % | | 100.0 | % |
Cost of sales | | 89.6 | % | | 89.5 | % |
Gross profit | | 10.4 | % | | 10.5 | % |
Operating expenses | | 6.5 | % | | 5.9 | % |
Operating income | | 3.9 | % | | 4.6 | % |
Income before taxes | | 1.9 | % | | 2.3 | % |
Income tax provision | | 0.5 | % | | 0.5 | % |
Net Income | | 1.3 | % | | 1.8 | % |
Revenue
For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, revenue increased to $654.6 million from $514.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 27.3% due mainly to greater demand for notebooks of $22.9 million, monitors of $20.7 million, hard disk drives of $20.2 million and memory of $16.3 million plus $51.8 million of incremental revenue contributed by Centel. In-country revenue increased to $450.8 million from $330.6 million for
18
the same period in the prior year, an increase of 36.4%. This revenue growth was driven mainly by increased sales of notebooks, monitors and memory primarily in Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Uruguay plus the $51.8 million of incremental revenue contributed by Centel. Our in-country sales accounted for 68.9% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to 64.3% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Miami revenue (net of sales to our in-country operations) increased to $203.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $184.2 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 10.7%. This increase was the result of increased volume of hard disk drives, memory and monitor sales.
Gross Profit
For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, gross profit increased to $67.8 million from $53.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 25.7% primarily as a result of the increased sales volume in our in-country operations and the $5.2 million of incremental gross profit contributed by our Centel operations. Consolidated gross margin declined slightly to 10.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from 10.5% for the same period in the prior year, due primarily to lower margins realized on CPU and hard disk drive products partially offset by higher margins from notebooks, memory and monitors. In-country gross profit increased to $43.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $32.0 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 36.6%. The increase in in-country gross profit was primarily attributable to the growth in sales in Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Uruguay plus improved margins in Guatemala and Peru and the incremental gross profit of $5.2 million contributed by Centel. Miami gross profit increased to $24.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $21.9 million in 2005, an increase of 10.3% due mainly to the increase in hard disk drive, memory and monitor sales volume.
Operating Income
Operating income increased to $25.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $23.7 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 7.2%. This increase was primarily driven by the overall higher level of revenue partially offset by higher operating expenses and the $2.4 million of incremental operating income contributed by Centel. In-country operating income increased to $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $12.7 million for the same period in 2005, an increase of 25.2%. This increase was driven by the higher gross profits partially offset by the increase in personnel and warehouse expenses associated with the opening of five additional in-country facilities in late 2005 and early 2006 and the $2.4 million of operating income from Centel. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in our in-country operations increased to 6.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from 5.9% for the same period in 2005. Miami operating income declined to $9.5 million from $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This decline was primarily driven by increased operating expenses related to warehouse and logistics, Sarbanes-Oxley compliance efforts, increased IT and Finance personnel, provisioning for a casualty loss in our Miami operations and depreciation expense. Miami’s operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 7.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 6.0% for the same period in the prior year.
19
Other (Income) Expense
Other (income) expense increased to $13.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 primarily driven by the foreign exchange losses incurred in 2006. Interest expense decreased slightly to $11.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $12.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in interest expense was driven mainly by the absence of the prepayment penalty and write-off of capitalized debt issuance costs offset by higher interest expense from the increased level of long-term debt as a result of the $120.0 million high-yield bond transaction completed in late August 2005. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, a foreign exchange loss of $2.0 million was realized compared to a gain of $1.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The foreign exchange loss was driven primarily by our operations in Colombia, Chile and Costa Rica which experienced a devaluation of their local currencies relative to the US dollar during the nine month period ended September 30, 2006.
Income Tax Provision
The provision for income taxes increased to $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $2.7 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 27.4% due mainly to higher pre-tax profits resulting from the increase in operating income and lower borrowing costs partially offset by the foreign exchange losses realized in 2006.
Net Income
Our net income decreased to $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $9.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The improvement in operating income was more than offset by the higher levels of foreign exchange losses in 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
The IT products distribution business is working-capital intensive. Historically, we have financed our working capital needs through a combination of cash generated from operations, trade credit from manufacturers, borrowings under revolving bank lines of credit (including issuance of letters of credit) and asset-based financing arrangements that we have established in certain Latin American markets.
Our working capital at September 30, 2006 amounted to $94.7 million, compared to $92.8 million at December 31, 2005. Our cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2006 amounted to $12.5 million, compared to $13.0 million as of December 31, 2005.
20
Cash flows from operating activities: Our cash flows from operations generated $3.1 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 compared to a requirement of $6.3 million for the same period in the prior year. This improvement was primarily driven by lower working capital requirements due mainly to higher trade accounts payable, mainly in Miami and Chile, partially offset by an increase in inventories in Chile, Mexico and Peru in advance of the holiday selling season and prepaid taxes in several of our foreign affiliates.
Cash flows from investing activities: Our cash flows from investing for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 was a requirement of $3.9 million compared to a requirement of $14.2 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005. This improvement was due mainly to the absence of the $16.4 million cash requirements for the Centel acquisition, net of the $4.6 million of cash acquired from Centel at the close of the acquisition partially offset by $2.0 million increase in capital expenditures.
Cash flows from financing activities: Our cash flows from financing were a generation of $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to a generation of $26.7 million for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was due mainly to the absence of the $120.0 million high-yield financing partially offset by the repayment of the Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. loans and the $20.0 million dividend paid to shareholders, all in August 2005.
Working Capital Management
The successful management of our working capital needs is a key driver of our growth and cash flow generation. The following table sets forth certain information about our trade accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable, which are the largest elements of our working capital:
| | | | | | | | |
| | As of Sept. 30, 2006 | | | As of December 31, 2006 | |
Balance sheet data: | | | | | | | | |
Trade accounts receivable, net of allowance | | $ | 88,491 | | | $ | 71,589 | |
Inventories | | | 99,374 | | | | 77,038 | |
Accounts payable | | | 109,369 | | | | 75,944 | |
| | |
| | Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2006 | | | Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2005 | |
Other data: | | | | | | | | |
Trade accounts receivable days | | | 36.9 | | | | 36.5 | |
Inventory days | | | 46.2 | | | | 43.8 | |
Accounts payable days | | | (50.9 | ) | | | (43.1 | ) |
| | | | | | | | |
Cash conversion cycle | | | 32.2 | | | | 37.2 | |
21
Cash conversion cycle. The Company’s cash conversion cycle declined to 32.2 days at September 30, 2006 from 37.2 days at December 31, 2005. This decline was primarily driven by an increase in the accounts payable days to 50.9 from 43.1 as vendors began increasing the Company’s trade credit limits to accommodate for the increased volume of business. Partially offsetting this improvement was an increase in inventory days to 46.2 from 43.8 and reflects the build-up of inventory in advance of the holiday selling season.
Trade accounts receivable. The Company principally sells products to a large base of resellers throughout Latin America and to agents in the United States for export to Latin America and the Caribbean. Credit risk on trade receivables is diversified over several geographic areas and a large number of customers. No one customer accounts for more than 10.0% of sales. The Company provides trade credit to its customers in the normal course of business. The collection of a substantial portion of the Company’s receivables is susceptible to changes in Latin American economies and political climates. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses after giving consideration to delinquency data, historical loss experience, and economic conditions impacting the industry. The financial condition of its customers and the related allowance for doubtful accounts is continually reviewed by management.
Prior to extending credit, a customer’s financial history is analyzed and, if appropriate, forms of personal guarantees are obtained. SBA uses credit insurance and makes provisions for estimated credit losses. The insurance contract is with EULER American Credit Indemnity Company. The current policy expires July 31, 2008. This credit insurance policy covers trade sales to non-affiliated buyers. The policy’s aggregate limit is $20.0 million with a total deductible of $500 thousand. In addition, a 10.0% domestic and 20.0% export buyer coinsurance provision applies, as well as sub-limits in coverage on a per-buyer and on a per-country basis.
In managing our trade accounts receivable, our large number of customers and our strict credit policies allow us to dilute and limit our exposure to credit risk.
Inventories. We seek to minimize our inventory levels and inventory obsolescence rates through frequent product shipments, close and ongoing monitoring of inventory levels and customer demand patterns, optimal use of carriers and shippers and the negotiation of clauses in our major vendor supply agreements offering protection against loss of value of inventory. The Miami distribution center ships products to each of our in-country operations approximately twice per week by air and once per week by sea. These frequent shipments result in efficient inventory management and increased inventory turnover. We do not have long-term contracts with logistics providers. Rather, we seek to obtain the best rates and fastest delivery times on a shipment-by-shipment basis. Our Miami operations also coordinate direct shipments to third-party customers and in-country operations from vendors in Asia.
Accounts payable. We seek to maximize our accounts payable days through centralized purchasing and management of our vendor back-end rebates, promotions and incentives. This centralization of the purchasing function allows the in-country operations to focus their attention on more country-specific issues such as sales, local marketing, credit control and collections. The centralization of purchasing also allows our Miami operations to control the records and receipts of all vendor back-end rebates, promotions and incentives to ensure their collection and to adjust pricing of products according to such incentives.
22
Capital Expenditures and Investments
Capital expenditures increased to $3.5 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 compared to $1.5 million for the same period in the prior year. This increase was primarily related to upgrades made to our back office systems in Colombia, Costa Rica, Panama, El Salvador, Guatemala and our Miami operations where we continue to upgrade our inventory management and financial consolidation systems and the purchase of additional warehouse space for $0.4 million in Lima, Peru and $0.5 million in Santiago, Chile.
We anticipate that capital expenditures will remain at approximately $3.5 million per year over the next few years as we continue to upgrade our computer and logistics systems and facilities in connection with the growth in the business.
On June 23, 2005 we invested $14.0 million in cash to acquire Centel. The remaining $5.8 million of the acquisition price was funded by the issuance of $3.0 million in non-voting stock in our company and $2.8 million in seller notes. As per the purchase agreement, the Company withheld $1.0 million of the cash portion of the acquisition price pending final independent verification of working capital accounts. We paid the $1.0 million working capital holdback provision to Centel’s former shareholders on August 22, 2005 after completion of the working capital accounts verification. In addition, pursuant to the share purchase agreement, we paid sellers $1.7 million in connection with inventory and insurance-related purchase price adjustments. Expenses associated with the acquisition were approximately $0.7 million and cash assumed in the acquisition was $4.6 million.
Capital Resources
Based upon our current level of operations and anticipated growth, we believe that cash on hand and cash provided by operations, supplemented as necessary with funds available under our senior secured credit facility (including those of our foreign subsidiaries), will provide sufficient resources to meet our anticipated debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next twelve months. We cannot assure you, however that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available to enable us to grow our business, service our indebtedness or make anticipated capital expenditures. We continually assess our capital needs and may seek additional financing as needed to fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures and potential acquisitions. Our ability to secure such additional financing will be subject to business and economic conditions, some of which are beyond our control.
Many of our in-country operations also have limited credit facilities. These credit facilities fall into three categories; asset-based financing facilities, letter of credit and performance bond facilities, and unsecured revolving credit facilities. As of September 30, 2006 the outstanding balance on these in-country facilities totaled approximately $0.9 million.
23
On August 25, 2005 the Company completed a $120.0 million high yield debt offering. The notes are a second priority senior secured obligation of the Company and are due January 15, 2011. The notes were sold at 99.057% of face value and carry a coupon rate of 11 3/4%. The proceeds of the offering were used to repay existing indebtedness, pay a dividend to shareholders, and pay fees and expenses associated with the debt offering with the remaining balance to be used for general corporate purposes. The notes are collateralized on a second priority basis with 100.0% of the common shares of Intcomex, Inc., Intcomex Holdings, L.L.C. and Intcomex Holdings SPC-I, L.L.C. and 65.0% of the shares of IXLA Holdings, LTD plus the assets of Software Brokers of America, Inc.
Concurrent with the high yield debt offering, Software Brokers of America, Inc. entered into a new $25.0 million three year revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank. Borrowings against the facility will be at prime less 75 basis points and are collateralized with all the personal property of Software Brokers of America, Inc.(“SBA”) On November 2, 2006 Software Brokers of America, Inc. and Comerica Bank amended the credit facility and subordination agreement to allow SBA to make certain payments on an intercompany loan from Intcomex, Inc., increase the minimum level of tangible effective net worth to $37.0 million (which minimum level shall decline from the third fiscal quarter of 2006 to the end of the third fiscal quarter of 2007 to $25.0 million and remain at $25.0 million thereafter) and extended the maturity date to August 25, 2009.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussions and analyses of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are substantially based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of material contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we review and evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, those that relate to revenue recognition and accounts receivable; inventories; goodwill and other long-lived assets; and income taxes. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and a variety of other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making our estimates about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Although we believe our estimates, judgments and assumptions are appropriate and reasonable based upon available information, these assessments are subject to a wide range of factors; therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates.
We believe the following critical accounting policies are impacted by our judgment or by estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue recognition and accounts receivable. Revenue is recognized once the following criteria are met: we have persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; delivery to our
24
customer has occurred, which happens at the point of shipment (this includes the transfer of both title and risk of loss, provided that no significant obligations remain); the price is fixed and determinable; and collectibility is reasonably assured. We allow our customers to return product for exchange or credit subject to certain limitations. Actual losses on such returns are recorded at the time of the return. Historical experience has shown the losses to be less than 1.0% of sales. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in revenue and related costs are included in the cost of sales.
We provide allowances for doubtful accounts on our accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Changes in the financial condition of our customers or other unanticipated events, which may affect their ability to make payments, could result in charges for additional allowances exceeding our expectations. Our estimates are influenced by the following considerations: the large number of customers and their dispersion across wide geographic areas; the fact that no single customer accounts for 2.8% or more of our revenue; a dedicated credit department at our Miami headquarters and at each of our in-country subsidiaries; aging of receivables, individually and in the aggregate; credit insurance coverage; and the value and adequacy of collateral received from our customers in certain circumstances.
Inventories. Our inventory levels are based on our projections of future demand and market conditions. Any unanticipated decline in demand or technological changes could cause us to have excess or obsolete inventories. On an ongoing basis, we review for estimated excess or obsolete inventories and make provisions for our inventories to reflect their estimated net realizable value based upon our forecasts of future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than our forecasts, additional inventory obsolescence provisions may be required. Our estimates are influenced by the following considerations: protection from loss in value of inventory under certain vendor agreements, our ability to return to vendors a certain percentage of our purchases, aging of inventories, variability of demand due to economic downturn and other factors, and rapid product improvements and technological changes.
Goodwill and other long-lived assets. Our goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. We assess goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or sooner if events indicate such a review is necessary. Potential impairment exists if the fair value of a reporting unit to which goodwill has been allocated is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit. The amount of the impairment to recognize, if any, is calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its implied value. Future changes in the estimates used to conduct the impairment review, including revenue projections, market values and changes in the discount rate used could cause the analysis to indicate that our goodwill is impaired in subsequent periods and result in a write-off of a portion or all of the goodwill. The discount rate used is based on our capital structure and, if required, an additional premium on the reporting unit based upon its geographic market and operating environment. The assumptions used in estimating revenue projections are consistent with internal planning.
In addition, we review other long-lived assets (principally property, plant and equipment) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
25
of an asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the asset’s fair value, we measure and record an impairment loss for the excess. We assess an asset’s fair value by determining the expected future undiscounted cash flows of the asset. There are numerous uncertainties and inherent risks in conducting business, such as general economic conditions, actions of competitors, ability to manage growth, actions of regulatory authorities, pending investigations or litigation, customer demand and risk relating to international operations. Adverse effects from these or other risks may result in adjustments to the carrying value of our other long-lived assets.
Income taxes. As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate our income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This process involves estimating our actual current tax expense together with assessing any temporary differences resulting from the different treatment of certain items, such as the timing for recognizing revenues and expenses, for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences may result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We are required to assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets, which include temporary differences that are expected to be deductible in future years, will be recoverable from future taxable income or other tax planning strategies. If recovery is not likely, we must provide a valuation allowance based on our estimates of future taxable income in the various taxing jurisdictions, and the amount of deferred taxes that are ultimately realizable. The provision for tax liabilities involves evaluations and judgments of uncertainties in the interpretation of complex tax regulations by various taxing authorities.
In the event of a distribution of the earnings of certain international subsidiaries, we would be subject to withholding taxes payable on those distributions to the relevant foreign taxing authorities. Since we currently intend to reinvest undistributed earnings of these international subsidiaries indefinitely, we have made no provision for income taxes that might be payable upon the remittance of these earnings. We have also not determined the amount of tax liability associated with an unplanned distribution of these permanently reinvested earnings. In the event that in the future we consider that there is a reasonable likelihood of the distribution of the earnings of these international subsidiaries (for example, if we intend to use those distributions to meet our liquidity needs), we will be required to make a provision for the estimated resulting tax liability, which will be subject to the evaluations and judgments of uncertainties described above.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There were no material changes in our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006 from those disclosed in our Form S-4 filing with the SEC. For further discussion of qualitative and quantitative disclosures about market risk, reference is made to our Form S-4 filing with the SEC.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have occurred during the last fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
26
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based upon that evaluation, we concluded that as of September 30, 2006, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to litigation. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these litigations will not have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in our Form S-4 filed with the SEC, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Form S-4 are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
Item 2. Other Information
Not applicable.
