A. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
General Nature of Business
SGS International, Inc. (“the Company”), headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, operates in one operating business segment, pre-press graphic services. The Company provides a variety of services that include the preparatory steps that precede the actual printing of an image onto packaging material. The Company supplies photographic images, digital images, flexographic printing plates and rotogravure cylinders for the packaging printing industry. The Company has 38 locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Hong Kong.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and related footnotes that would normally be required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial reporting. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The December 31, 2008 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of a normal and recurring nature) that management considers necessary for a fair statement of financial information for the interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2009.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through August 10, 2009, the date the Company filed this report with the SEC. See Note I, “Subsequent Event,” for additional information.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SGS International, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries and companies more than fifty percent owned. These subsidiaries include Southern Graphic Systems, Inc., Project Dove Holdco, Inc., Project Dove Manitoba, L.P., Southern Graphic Systems-Canada, Co., Southern Graphic Systems Mexico, S. De R.L. De C.V, SGS Packaging Europe Holdings Limited, SGS Packaging Europe Limited, MCG Graphics Limited, The Box Room Limited, SGS Packaging Netherlands B.V., McGurk Studios Limited, Thames McGurk Limited, and SGS Asia Pacific Limited. These subsidiaries also include SGS Packaging Chile Limitada since January 2009 and include Backwell Design Inc. and Gemini Graphic Imaging Inc. since May 2008. On December 31, 2008, Backwell Design Inc. and Gemini Graphic Imaging Inc. transferred all of their assets and liabilities to Southern Graphic Systems-Canada, Co.
Inventories and Cost of Goods Sold
Raw materials inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market with cost determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Work-in-process inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. There is no finished goods inventory since all products are shipped upon completion. Raw materials inventory and work-in-process inventory are as follows:
June 30, 2009 | December 31, 2008 | |||||
Raw materials | $ | 2,686 | $ | 2,949 | ||
Work-in-process | 6,249 | 6,115 | ||||
Total | $ | 8,935 | $ | 9,064 | ||

Use of Estimates
The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and require management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. They may also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Areas that require significant judgments, estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, accounts receivable and the allowance for doubtful accounts, work-in-process inventory, impairment of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets, accrued health and welfare benefits, and tax matters. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these judgments and actual results could differ from those estimates upon subsequent resolution of some matters.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007),Business Combinations(SFAS 141(R)). SFAS 141(R) requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. The adoption of SFAS 141(R) did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The impact on the Company’s financial statements for subsequent periods will depend on the nature and size of future acquisitions.
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An Amendment of ARB No. 51, (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The adoption of SFAS 160 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of the following three FASB Staff Positions (FSPs) intended to provide application guidance and revise the disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities:
• | FSP FAS 157-4,Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly (FSP FAS 157-4), addresses the determination of fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs represent distressed sales. FSP FAS 157-4 reaffirms the view in SFAS 157 that the objective of fair value measurement is to reflect an asset’s sale price in an orderly transaction at the date of the financial statements. |
• | FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1,Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, enhances consistency in financial reporting by increasing the frequency of fair value disclosures to a quarterly instead of annual basis for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet at fair value. |
• | FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2,Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, provides additional guidance designed to create greater consistency in the timing of impairment recognition and provide greater clarity about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities that are not expected to be sold. |
The adoption of these FSPs had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note F, “Fair Value Measurements,” for these disclosures.

Table of Contents
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165,Subsequent Events (SFAS 165). SFAS 165 incorporates the subsequent events guidance contained in the auditing standards literature into authoritative accounting literature. It also requires entities to disclose the date through which they have evaluated subsequent events and whether the date corresponds with the release of their financial statements. SFAS 165 is effective for all interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted SFAS 165 upon its issuance and it had no material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note A, “Basis of Presentation,” for this new disclosure.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166,Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (SFAS 166). SFAS 166 revises SFAS No. 140 and requires entities to provide more information about sales of securitized financial assets and similar transactions, particularly if the seller retains some risk with respect to the assets. SFAS 166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 166 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 167,Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (SFAS 167). SFAS 167 amends certain requirements of FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) to improve financial reporting by companies involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. SFAS 167 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 167 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162(SFAS 168). SFAS 168 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States. SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 168 will change how various elements of GAAP are referenced in the Company’s financial statement disclosures, but will have no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operation or cash flows.
B. | Acquisitions |
Effective January 1, 2008, Southern Graphic Systems-Canada, Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of SGS International, Inc., acquired the outstanding shares of 1043497 Ontario Limited (“1043497”) and Cooper & Williamson, Inc.

C. | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets |
Goodwill and other intangible assets consist of the following:
June 30, 2009 | December 31, 2008 | |||||||
Goodwill, cost | $ | 178,559 | $ | 172,618 | ||||
Customer relationships, cost | 173,809 | 170,121 | ||||||

Total | $ | 346,277 | $ | 341,832 | ||||
The change in goodwill, customer relationships (cost) and other intangible assets (cost) during the six months ended June 30, 2009 is due to the following:
Goodwill | Customer relationships (cost) | Other intangible assets (cost) | |||||||
Balance at December 31, 2008 | $ | 172,618 | $ | 170,121 | $ | 25,961 | |||
Revisions to purchase accounting during the six months ended June 30, 2009 | 2,507 | — | — | ||||||

Balance at June 30, 2009 | $ | 178,559 | $ | 173,809 | $ | 26,294 | |||
The revisions to purchase accounting during the six months ended June 30, 2009 include $2,212 related to a revision of the estimated purchase price allocation for the Tri-ad acquisition in light of a potential settlement of our dispute with the former owners regarding certain post-closing purchase price adjustments under the SPA.
12
Table of Contents
The $2, 212 increase in goodwill results from our expectation that we will accept certain liabilities and agree to pay the former owners an additional $1,850 Canadian dollars.
Amortization of customer relationships and other intangible assets is estimated to be approximately $9,900 annually from 2009 through 2013.

Senior subordinated notes | $ | 174,500 | $ | 119,152 |
The Company’s ability to further repurchase Notes is limited due to the terms of the Company’s senior secured credit facility.
G. | Contingencies and Commitments |
Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against entities within the Company. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. However, based on currently available facts and in light of legal and other defenses available to us, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
H. | Income Taxes |
The effective tax rates for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009 were 39.2% and 39.6%, compared to 54.5% and 54.6% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the impact of expenses not fully deductible for income tax purposes. Since income (loss) before income taxes was closer to zero for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008 than for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009, the impact of expenses not fully deductible for income tax purposes was more significant for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008 than for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009.
The Company has not recorded a deferred tax liability for undistributed earnings of certain international subsidiaries because such earnings are considered permanently invested in foreign countries. As of June 30, 2009, undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries considered permanently reinvested were approximately $1,786. The unrecognized deferred tax liability is dependent on many factors, including withholding taxes under current tax treaties and foreign tax credits. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred income tax liability related to these earnings is not practicable. The Company does not consider undistributed earnings from certain other international operations to be permanently reinvested. A portion of the estimated tax liabilities upon repatriation of earnings from these international operations is expected to be offset with foreign tax credits.
On December 15, 2008 the United States and Canada exchanged instruments of ratification to place in force the Fifth Protocol of the U.S.-Canada Tax Treaty (Fifth Protocol). Included in the Fifth Protocol were provisions that affected certain hybrid entities that receive or pay cross border payments. The hybrid provisions in the Fifth Protocol are effective January 1, 2010. The Company believes that certain subsidiaries may be affected by the new provisions and is currently evaluating strategies to minimize any adverse tax impact from the Fifth Protocol provisions.
I. | Subsequent Event |
We made $4,800 of payments on our revolving credit facility between July 1, 2009 and August 10, 2009. The borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility have decreased from $6,700 at June 30, 2009 to $1,900 at August 10, 2009.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with Item 1, “ Financial Statements” in Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
The statements in the discussion and analysis regarding our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our liquidity and capital resources and other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any of these forward-looking statements. You should read the following discussion together with the financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report.
Overview
We are a global leader in the digital imaging industry, offering design-to-print graphic services to the international consumer products packaging market in North America, Europe and Asia. Our global service platform and financial capability provide a distinct competitive advantage over the majority of companies in our industry. We offer a full spectrum of innovative digital solutions that streamline the capture, management, execution, and distribution of graphics information. Our brand development, creative design, prepress, image carriers and print support services are utilized in each of the three main printing processes: flexography, gravure and lithography. Our customers, many of which we have served for over 20 years, include large branded consumer products companies, mass merchant retailers and the printers and converters that service them. Our services ensure that our customers are able to obtain or produce consistent, high quality packaging materials often on short turnaround times.
During 2009, we have continued our strategy of reducing our debt levels to strengthen our balance sheet and reduce interest expense. In February 2009, we acquired an aggregate principal amount of $25.5 million of our 12% senior subordinated notes for a cash purchase price of $15.0 million. This was in addition to the optional principal repayment we made on our senior term loan of $8.2 million in September 2008. During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, we further reduced our debt levels on our revolving credit facility by $2.2 million. During the remainder of 2009, we plan to accelerate the rate of repayment on our debt obligations from the level of repayment experienced during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Our debt reduction strategy combined with lower interest rates will continue to generate savings in interest expense and increased cash flow from operations.
During 2009, we have paid $3.4 million and $0.2 million in deferred purchase price payments for acquisitions closed in 2008 and 2006, respectively. During 2009, we also paid an additional $2.0 million in deferred consideration payments for an acquisition completed in 2007. As of June 30, 2008, we have approximately $1.8 million remaining to be paid for previously completed acquisitions. The declining level of remaining deferred purchase price payment obligations related to previous acquisitions enables us to further utilize our future cash flows to fund our debt reduction initiative.
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $161.0 million, a $6.7 million decline from sales of $167.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This reduction was due to the strengthening of the United States dollar, which negatively impacted sales by $5.1 million, $6.0 million, and $0.4 million for our operations in Canada, the United Kingdom, and other foreign jurisdictions, respectively. Excluding the negative impact from foreign currency fluctuations, sales increased by $4.8 million primarily due to the impact of additional sales from acquisitions.
We acquired Backwell Design Inc. and Gemini Graphic Imaging Inc. (together with Backwell Design Inc. “Backwell”) in May 2008. We also acquired a provider of packaging and retail graphics located in Marietta, Georgia on December 31, 2008 (the “Marietta acquisition” or “Marietta”). These acquisitions generated incremental sales of $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. During 2009, we will continue to focus on integrating our recent acquisitions.
After excluding the impact from foreign currency fluctuations and acquisitions, sales were flat for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to a combination of factors, including a reduction of $3.5 million in sales to our tobacco industry customers, which was offset by organic growth with customers in other industries in the United States. We believe this $3.5 million decrease in sales to our tobacco industry customers is due to the consolidation of brands within tobacco companies and anticipated changes in labeling requirements from the United States and Canadian Governments that have not yet been fully specified by the governing authorities. We expect sales to our tobacco industry customers to continue to be soft until the anticipated changes in labeling requirements are finalized, at which point we anticipate a one-time increase in sales. Sales to our customers in the tobacco industry represented less
24
Table of Contents
than 5% of our sales for the 2008 fiscal year. The offsetting $3.5 million increase in sales for the six month period is primarily due to organic growth with customers in other industries in the United States. This organic growth in the United States has primarily resulted from the success of sales for “store brands.” We believe the growth in our store brands sales is due to a shift by consumers in response to the challenging economic environment, as well as our investment to expand our store brand business in recent years.
We have previously reported that price erosion in the industry, which we estimate at approximately 2% to 3% annually, is negatively impacting our sales. To date we have attempted to mitigate the negative impact of price concessions on our sales by putting in place effective cost control measures, among other things. As part of our strategy to combat continuing downward pressure on our pricing, we are seeking business at pricing that we believe is commensurate with the value we deliver, that will enable us to maintain margins at the levels we have historically achieved, and that will allow us to realize profitable organic growth. Consistent with that strategy, we have raised prices on our non-contractual work.
Cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation) expressed as a percentage of sales for our entire business was 63.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to 65.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This reduction in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales is due to a combination of factors, including the consolidation of certain operations during 2008 in North America and Europe. We plan to continue the process of consolidating certain operations in 2009.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The information presented below for the quarters ended and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was prepared by management and is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of our financial position and operating results for such quarters and as of such dates have been included. (Dollar amounts in the table below are in thousands and percentages are expressed as a percentage of sales.)

Net Sales. Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased 4.9%, or $4.2 million, to $80.3 million from $84.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. This decrease in sales, which was partially mitigated by sales generated from acquisitions, was principally due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The strengthening of the United States dollar, as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound, negatively impacted sales by $2.1 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The strengthening of the United States dollar compared to the euro and Mexican peso negatively impacted sales by $0.2 million on a combined basis. These decreases were partially offset by sales generated from the acquisitions of Backwell in Canada on May 2, 2008 and Marietta in the United States on December 31, 2008. These acquisitions contributed sales of $0.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

After excluding the impact of sales generated from acquisitions, sales in the United States decreased by $1.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to a $1.0 million decrease in sales to our customers in the tobacco industry. We believe this reduction in sales to our tobacco industry customers is due to the consolidation of brands within tobacco companies and anticipated changes in labeling requirements that have not yet occurred. We expect sales to our tobacco industry customers to continue to be soft until the anticipated changes in labeling requirements are finalized, at which point we anticipate a one-time increase in sales. After excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and sales generated from acquisitions, sales in Canada increased approximately $0.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. We believe this increase was primarily due to organic growth. This increase in sales in Canada occurred despite a $0.4 million decrease in sales to our tobacco industry customers, for reasons similar to the decrease in the United States as previously discussed. After excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, sales in the United Kingdom decreased by $0.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to the overall economic downturn in the United Kingdom.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased 8.3%, or $4.6 million, to $51.3 million from $55.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cost of goods sold was due to the strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound, which reduced cost of goods sold by $1.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The strengthening of the United States dollar compared to the euro and Mexican peso reduced cost of sales by $0.2 million on a combined basis. This decrease in cost of goods sold was partially offset by the additional costs of goods sold from acquired businesses. The acquisition of Backwell and Marietta added incremental costs of goods sold of $1.4 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Cost of goods sold expressed as a percentage of sales decreased to 63.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from 66.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales is due to a combination of factors, including the consolidation of certain operations during 2008 in North America and Europe, as well as sales in the United States operations representing a higher percentage of total company sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 than for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The United States operations have a lower cost of goods sold percentage than our operations in Canada and the United Kingdom.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 increased 3.3%, or $0.4 million, to $12.6 million from $12.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. This increase was primarily due to the combination of expenses associated with acquisitions, increased severance costs and expenses associated with driving organic growth in the United States, partially offset by the previously discussed strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound. The acquisitions of Backwell and Marietta added incremental selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Severance costs were $0.3 million higher for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 than the quarter ended June 30, 2008 due to headcount reductions in the United Kingdom. The impact of foreign currency fluctuations resulted in a decrease of selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.6 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The remaining increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the incremental expenses required to drive the organic sales growth (excluding tobacco related business) in the United States.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased 17.9%, or $1.3 million, to $5.9 million from $7.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008 due to certain production software becoming fully amortized during 2008. In addition, the previously discussed strengthening of the United States dollar resulted in a decrease of $0.3 million of depreciation and amortization expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. These decreases in depreciation and amortization expenses were partially offset by $0.1 million in incremental depreciation and amortization expenses associated with the previously discussed acquisitions.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 decreased 19.9%, or $1.8 million, to $7.4 million from $9.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates on the
26
Table of Contents
senior term and acquisition loan facilities during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 than for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, as well as the Company’s debt reduction strategy. The weighted average interest rates on the senior term and acquisition loan facilities were 4.1% and 6.7% for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively. The reduction in these interest rates resulted in a reduction of interest expense of $0.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. In addition, the acquisition in February 2009 of $25.5 million of 12% senior subordinated notes and the optional principal repayment of $8.2 million on the senior term loan facility in September 2008 resulted in a combined reduction in interest expense of $0.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The residual decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the previously discussed strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound.
Other Expense (Income), net.Other expense (income), net fluctuated by $1.7 million to $1.0 million of expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from $0.7 million of income for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Other expense (income), net, primarily consists of realized (gains) losses on foreign exchange, net of interest income. The fluctuation in other expense (income), net from the quarter ended June 30, 2008 to the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to less favorable fluctuations in the exchange rates related to the United States dollar, Canadian dollar and British pound during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 than compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was 39.2%, compared to 54.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to expenses not fully deductible for income tax purposes having a larger impact on the effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 than for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. This larger impact in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 than the quarter ended June 30, 2009 is due to the income before income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 being closer to zero than the income before income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

Net Sales. Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased 4.0%, or $6.7 million, to $161.0 million from $167.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease in sales, which was partially mitigated by organic growth and sales generated from acquisitions, was principally due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The strengthening of the United States dollar, as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound, negatively impacted sales by $5.1 million and $6.0 million, respectively. The strengthening of the United States dollar compared to the euro and Mexican peso negatively impacted sales by $0.4 million on a combined basis. These decreases were partially offset by sales generated from the acquisitions of Backwell in Canada on May 2, 2008 and Marietta in the United States on December 31, 2008. These acquisitions contributed sales of $0.5 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

After excluding the impact of sales generated from acquisitions, sales in the United States increased by $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008 primarily due to organic growth driven by the success of sales for “store brands.” We believe the growth in our store brands sales is a result of a shift by consumers in response to the challenging economic environment, as well our investment to expand our store brand business in recent years. The increase in sales in the United States was despite a $2.8 million decrease in sales to our customers in the tobacco industry customers for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to the reasons previously discussed. After excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and sales generated from acquisitions, sales in Canada increased approximately $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to organic growth. This increase in sales in Canada occurred despite a $0.7 million decrease in sales to our tobacco industry customers, as previously discussed. After excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, sales in the United Kingdom decreased by $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to the overall economic downturn in the United Kingdom.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased 6.9%, or $7.6 million, to $102.6 million from $110.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cost of goods sold was due to the strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound, which reduced cost of goods sold by $3.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively. The strengthening of the United States dollar compared to the euro and Mexican peso reduced cost of sales by $0.3 million on a combined basis. This decrease in cost of goods sold was partially offset by the additional costs of goods sold from acquired businesses. The acquisition of Backwell and Marietta added incremental costs of goods sold of $2.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008.
Cost of goods sold expressed as a percentage of sales decreased to 63.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from 65.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales is due to a combination of factors, including the consolidation of certain operations during 2008 in North America and Europe, as well as sales in the United States operations representing a higher percentage of total company sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009 than for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The United States operations have a lower cost of goods sold percentage than our operations in Canada and the United Kingdom.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 increased 1.9%, or $0.5 million, to $25.3 million from $24.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This increase was primarily due to the combination of expenses associated with acquisitions, increased severance costs and expenses associated with driving organic growth in the United States, partially offset by the previously discussed strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound. The acquisitions of Backwell and Marietta added incremental selling, general and administrative expenses of $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. Severance costs were $0.4 million higher for the six months ended June 30, 2009 than the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to headcount reductions in the United Kingdom. The impact of foreign currency fluctuations resulted in a decrease of selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. The remaining increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the incremental expenses driving the organic sales growth (excluding tobacco related business) in the United States.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased 15.0%, or $2.1 million, to $11.6 million from $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to certain production software becoming fully amortized during 2008. In addition, the previously discussed strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound resulted in a decrease of $0.7 million of depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. These decreases in depreciation and amortization expenses were partially offset by $0.3 million in incremental depreciation and amortization expenses associated with the previously discussed acquisitions.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 decreased 17.4%, or $3.3 million, to $15.4 million from $18.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates on the senior term and acquisition loan facilities during the six months ended June 30, 2009 than for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as well as the Company’s debt reduction strategy. The weighted average interest rates on the senior term and acquisition loan facilities were 4.3% and 7.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008,
28
Table of Contents
respectively. The reduction in these interest rates resulted in a reduction of interest expense of $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. In addition, the acquisition in February 2009 of $25.5 million of 12% senior subordinated notes (“Notes”) and the optional principal repayment of $8.2 million on the senior term loan facility in September 2008 resulted in a combined reduction in interest expense of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008. These decreases in interest expense were partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2009 of deferred financing costs that were written off due to the extinguishment of $25.5 million in principal of the Notes. The residual decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the previously discussed strengthening of the United States dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar and British pound.
Gain on Debt Extinguishment.The $10.5 million gain on debt extinguishment is due to the acquisition of $25.5 million of Notes for a cash purchase price of $15.0 million.
Other Expense (Income), net.Other expense (income), net fluctuated by $0.8 million to $0.4 million of expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $0.4 million of income for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Other expense (income), net, primarily consists of realized (gains) losses on foreign exchange, net of interest income. The fluctuation in other expense (income), net from the six months ended June 30, 2008 to the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily due to less favorable fluctuations in the exchange rates related to the United States dollar, Canadian dollar and British pound during the six months ended June 30, 2009 than compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008.
Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was 39.6%, compared to 54.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to expenses not fully deductible for income tax purposes having a larger impact on the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2008 than for the six months ended June 30, 2009. This larger impact in the six months ended June 30, 2008 than the six months ended June 30, 2009 is due to the income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2008 being closer to zero than the income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2009, we had $7.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $45.8 million in adjusted working capital1 compared with $10.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $37.1 million in adjusted working capital at December 31, 2008. The $3.0 million decrease in cash is primarily due to management’s decision to reduce debt levels and maintain a lower level of cash for operations. Specifically, the decrease in cash is due to the payment of $15.0 million to acquire an aggregate amount of $25.5 million of our Notes, the payment of $3.6 million in cash related to acquisitions and $4.3 million in capital expenditures made during the six months ended June 30, 2009. These payments are partially offset by $6.7 million in net borrowings on our revolving credit facility and $13.2 million of cash generated from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2009. The $8.7 million increase in adjusted working capital is primarily due to an $8.0 million increase in accounts receivable, a $1.3 million decrease in accounts payable, and a $1.2 million increase in the current deferred tax asset. These increases in adjusted working capital were partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in accrued taxes.
1 | Adjusted working capital is defined as current assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) less current liabilities (excluding the current portion of long-term debt). However, adjusted working capital is not a recognized measurement under GAAP, and when analyzing our financial position, investors should use adjusted working capital in addition to, and not as an alternative for, working capital as defined in GAAP. The following table reconciles working capital to adjusted working capital: |

Our revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) under our senior secured credit facility provides for $35 million of borrowing availability. Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. (“Lehman”) has a lending commitment of $8.9 million (or 25.5%) of the total $35 million available under the Revolver. We have concluded that Lehman is unable or unwilling to fund its portion of loans under the Revolver and that, as a result, the amount actually available under the Revolver is $26.1 million. We expect that cash generated from operating activities and availability under the Revolver, which is included in our senior secured credit facility, will be our principal sources of liquidity. At June 30, 2009, there were $6.7 million of borrowings outstanding under the Revolver and $19.4 million of remaining borrowing availability. We made $4.8 million of payments between July 1, 2009 and August 10, 2009 to reduce our borrowings outstanding under the Revolver to $1.9 million at August 10, 2009. Based on our current level of operations, we believe our cash flow from operations and availability under the Revolver will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months. We cannot assure you, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations, or that future borrowings will be available to us under the Revolver in an amount sufficient to enable us to repay our indebtedness, or to fund our other liquidity needs.
We are highly leveraged and our aggregate indebtedness at June 30, 2009 was $328.5 million. In 2011, our debt service requirements will substantially increase as a result of the maturity on December 30, 2011 of the senior secured term loans and borrowings on the senior secured acquisition facility. We anticipate that we will refinance these borrowings prior to their maturity. Our ability to operate our business, service our debt requirements and reduce our total debt will depend upon our future operating performance.
Our senior secured credit facility contains customary financial and other covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined in the senior secured credit agreement. Our senior secured credit facility also places certain restrictions on our ability to make capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2009, we were in compliance with all covenants. Below are the required financial covenant levels and the actual levels as of June 30, 2009:
Required | Actual | |||||
Maximum leverage ratio | 5.25 | 4.86 | ||||
Minimum interest coverage ratio | 1.80 | 2.19 | ||||
Maximum annual capital expenditures | not to exceed $ | 15.0 million | $ | 4.3 million |
We believe that our financing arrangements provide us with sufficient financial flexibility to fund our operations, debt service requirements and other committed obligations. Our ability to access additional capital in the long-term depends on availability of capital markets and pricing on commercially reasonable terms as well as our credit profile at the time we are seeking funds. From time-to-time, we review our long-term financing and capital structure. As a result of our review, we may periodically explore alternatives to our current financing, including the issuance of additional long-term debt, refinancing our credit facility and other restructurings or financings.
Cash flows
Six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to six months ended June 30, 2008
Cash flows from operating activities.Net cash provided by operating activities was $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $10.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The primary reason for this increase is the $3.7 million reduction in cash paid for interest to $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 from $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This increase in cash provided by operating activities was partially offset by the combined impact from the timing of cash collections of receivables and payments of liabilities.
Cash flows from investing activities. Net cash used for investing activities was $7.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $29.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cash used for investing activities is primarily due to a reduction of $20.2 million in acquisition-related cash payments in the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2008.
Cash flows from financing activities.Net cash used in financing activities was $8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to cash used by financing activities of $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The primary reason for this fluctuation was the payment of $15.0 million to acquire $25.5 million of Notes, partially offset by $6.7 million in net borrowings on the Revolver during the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Contractual Obligations
At June 30, 2009, there were no material changes in our December 31, 2008 contractual obligations, except for the reduction in principal payments on debt and interest payments on debt due to the extinguishment of $25.5 million in principal of the Notes.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Standards
See Note A to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the impact of recently issued accounting standards.
There have been no other material changes to our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2008.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
At June 30, 2009, there were no material changes in our December 31, 2008 market risks relating to interest and foreign exchange rates.
Item 4T. | Controls and Procedures |
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act) designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These include controls and procedures designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009. Based on this evaluation, which excluded an assessment of internal control of the Marietta acquired operations, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2009, at the reasonable assurance level.
The Company completed its Marietta acquisition effective December 31, 2008. As permitted by the SEC, management’s assessment as of June 30, 2009 did not include the internal controls of Marietta, which is included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2009.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company is in the process of implementing the Order to Cash module in its enterprise resource planning system for most of its US and Canadian locations. This implementation will result in certain changes to business processes and internal controls impacting financial reporting. Management is taking the necessary steps to monitor and maintain appropriate internal controls during this period of change. Although we believe we are designing effective internal controls for this implementation, if the module is implemented late in the 4th quarter, management may not have enough information to conclude that the controls are operating effectively. The Company also continues to integrate new acquisitions into corporate processes. No potential internal control changes due to new acquisitions would be considered material to, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The Marietta acquisition is expected to be fully integrated into corporate processes by year-end.
There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against entities within the Company. While the amounts claimed may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that results of operations or liquidity in a particular period could be materially affected by certain contingencies. However, based on currently available facts and in light of legal and other defenses available to us, management believes that the disposition of matters that are pending or asserted will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and liquidity.
