ARAMARK CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1) | BASIS OF PRESENTATION: |
ARAMARK Corporation (the “Company” or “ARAMARK”) was acquired on January 26, 2007 through a merger transaction with RMK Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation controlled by investment funds associated with GS Capital Partners, CCMP Capital Advisors, J.P. Morgan Partners, Thomas H. Lee Partners and Warburg Pincus LLC (collectively, the “Sponsors”), Joseph Neubauer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ARAMARK, and certain other members of the Company’s management. The acquisition was accomplished through the merger of RMK Acquisition Corporation with and into ARAMARK Corporation with ARAMARK Corporation being the surviving company (the “Transaction”).
The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ARAMARK Intermediate Holdco Corporation, which is wholly-owned by ARAMARK Holdings Corporation (the “Parent Company”). ARAMARK Holdings Corporation, ARAMARK Intermediate Holdco Corporation and RMK Acquisition Corporation were formed for the purpose of facilitating the Transaction. The Company’s operating results are included in the consolidated federal tax returns filed by the Parent Company. Any realized tax effects or credits attributable to the Company’s operations accrue to the Company based upon the Parent Company’s procedures for allocating the costs and benefits to its subsidiaries. The income tax provisions in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income approximate the provisions that would be required if the Company were a separate taxpayer. All income tax payments are made by the Company on behalf of the Parent Company (see Note 16).
On March 30, 2007, ARAMARK Corporation was merged with and into ARAMARK Services, Inc. with ARAMARK Services, Inc. being the surviving corporation. In connection with the consummation of the merger, ARAMARK Services, Inc. changed its name to ARAMARK Corporation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling financial interest is maintained. For those material consolidated subsidiaries in which the Company’s ownership is less than 100%, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as noncontrolling interest in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The condensed consolidated financial statements exclude the accounts of ARAMARK Holdings Corporation and ARAMARK Intermediate Holdco Corporation, but do reflect the Sponsors’ investment cost basis allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired on January 26, 2007 and the Parent Company’s common stock subject to repurchase. See Note 16 for further discussion of ARAMARK Holdings Corporation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those statements, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2011 was derived from audited financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of the Company, the statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal, recurring nature, required for a fair presentation for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year, due to the seasonality of some of the Company’s business activities and the possibility of changes in general economic conditions.
(2) | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND ASSETS HELD FOR SALE: |
On September 30, 2011, the Company completed the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Galls, LLC (“Galls”), for approximately $75.0 million in cash. The transaction resulted in a pretax loss of approximately $1.5 million (net of tax loss of approximately $12.0 million) during fiscal 2011. Galls is accounted for as a discontinued operation in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Galls’ results of operations have been removed from the Company’s results of continuing operations for all periods presented. Galls was previously included in the Uniform and Career Apparel segment. All related disclosures have also been adjusted to reflect the discontinued operation.

(3) | ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES: |
Fiscal 2012
On October 3, 2011, ARAMARK Refreshment Services, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, purchased all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Van Houtte USA Holdings, Inc. (doing business as “Filterfresh”), a provider of office coffee services in the United States, for cash consideration of approximately $145.2 million. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, if a certain significant customer relationship was not maintained within a specific timeframe, the Company was entitled to a refund of a portion of the purchase price. In January 2012, the Company received a refund of approximately $7.4 million related to the termination of this customer relationship.
As part of the acquisition of Filterfresh, the Company acquired a subsidiary with a redeemable noncontrolling interest. The Company classifies redeemable noncontrolling interests outside of shareholder’s equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in “Deferred Income Taxes and Other Noncurrent Liabilities.” As of December 30, 2011, the redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the subsidiary was approximately $10.1 million. For the three months ended December 30, 2011, net income attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest was $0.3 million and distributions to redeemable noncontrolling interest was $0.2 million.
For the three months ended December 30, 2011, $31.2 million of sales and $2.0 million of net loss, which includes planned transition and integration costs, respectively, were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income related to the acquisition. During fiscal 2011, approximately $0.7 million of pretax transaction-related costs related to the acquisition were recorded in earnings. The Company’s proforma results of operations for fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 would not have been materially different than reported, assuming the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the prior year period.
Fiscal 2011
On March 18, 2011, ARAMARK Clinical Technology Services, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, purchased the common stock of the ultimate parent company of Masterplan, a clinical technology management and medical equipment maintenance company, for cash consideration of approximately $154.5 million. Also acquired in the transaction was ReMedPar, an independent provider of sourced and refurbished medical equipment parts. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company sold MESA, a wholly-owned subsidiary acquired as part of the Masterplan acquisition, for cash consideration of approximately $4.2 million. The sale resulted in a reduction to goodwill of approximately $0.5 million. The Company is in the process of finalizing its assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company’s proforma results of operations for fiscal 2011 would not have been materially different than reported.
For the three months ended December 30, 2011, $30.1 million of sales and $0.8 million of net loss, respectively, were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income related to the acquisition.

Comprehensive income includes all changes to shareholder’s equity during a period, except those resulting from investment by and distributions to shareholders. Components of comprehensive income include net income (loss), changes in foreign currency translation adjustments (net of tax), pension plan adjustments (net of tax) and changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges (net of tax). Total comprehensive income was approximately $49.7 million and $56.4 million for the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Total comprehensive income attributable to ARAMARK shareholder was approximately $49.0 million and $56.4 million for the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” consists of pension plan adjustments (net of tax) of approximately ($33.7) million and ($34.1) million, respectively, foreign currency translation adjustment (net of tax) of approximately $15.8 million and $24.8 million, respectively, and fair value of cash flow hedges (net of tax) of approximately ($49.2) million and ($68.1) million, respectively.
(6) | GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS: |
Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to an impairment test that the Company conducts annually or more frequently if a change in circumstances or the occurrence of events indicates that potential impairment exists, using discounted cash flows.

Acquisition-related intangible assets consist of customer relationship assets, the ARAMARK trade name and other trade names. Customer relationship assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit, 3 to 24 years, with a weighted average life of approximately 11 years. The ARAMARK and Seamless trade names are indefinite lived intangible assets and are not amortizable but are evaluated for impairment at least annually.
Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was approximately$50.3 million and $47.3 million, respectively.
(7) | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS: |
The Company enters into derivative contractual arrangements to manage changes in market conditions related to interest on debt obligations, foreign currency exposures and exposure to fluctuating natural gas, gasoline and diesel fuel prices. Derivative instruments utilized during the period include interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency forward exchange contracts, and natural gas, gasoline and diesel fuel agreements. All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each quarter. The counterparties to the Company’s contractual derivative agreements are all major international financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties. The Company continually monitors its positions and the credit ratings of its counterparties, and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. For designated hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company has entered into $3.0 billion and ¥5.0 billion of interest rate swap agreements, fixing the rate on a like amount of variable rate term loan borrowings and floating rate notes. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, $300 million of interest rate swap agreements matured. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as and meets all the required criteria for a cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings as the underlying hedged item affects earnings. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, approximately ($40.2) million and ($56.3) million of unrealized net of tax losses related to the interest rate swaps were included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss,” respectively. The hedge ineffectiveness for these cash flow hedging instruments during the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was immaterial.

The Company previously entered into a $169.6 million amortizing forward starting cross currency swap to mitigate the risk of variability in principal and interest payments on the Canadian subsidiary’s variable rate debt denominated in U.S. dollars. The agreement fixes the rate on the variable rate borrowings and mitigates changes in the Canadian dollar/U.S. dollar exchange rate. During the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately ($0.6) million and ($2.2) million of unrealized net of tax losses related to the swap were added to “Accumulated other comprehensive loss,” respectively. Approximately $3.3 million and $2.6 million were reclassified to offset net translation gains (losses) on the foreign currency denominated debt during the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, unrealized net of tax losses of approximately ($7.8) million and ($10.6) million related to the cross currency swap were included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss,” respectively. The hedge ineffectiveness for this cash flow hedging instrument during the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was immaterial.
The Company entered into a series of pay fixed/receive floating natural gas hedge agreements based on a NYMEX price in order to limit its exposure to price increases for natural gas, primarily in the Uniform and Career Apparel segment. As of December 30, 2011, the Company has contracts for approximately 168,000 MMBtu’s outstanding for fiscal 2012 that are designated as cash flow hedging instruments. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, approximately ($0.2) million and ($0.1) million of unrealized net of tax losses, respectively, were recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” for these contracts. There was no hedge ineffectiveness for the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Derivatives not Designated in Hedging Relationships
The Company entered into a series of pay fixed/receive floating gasoline and diesel fuel agreements based on the Department of Energy weekly retail on-highway index in order to limit its exposure to price fluctuations for gasoline and diesel fuel. As of December 30, 2011, the Company has contracts for approximately 3.5 million gallons outstanding for fiscal 2012. Prior to October 1, 2011, these contracts met the required criteria to be designated as cash flow hedging instruments; therefore, changes in the fair value of these contracts were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings as the underlying hedged item affects earnings. Beginning in first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company elected to de-designate its gasoline and diesel fuel agreements for accounting purposes. As a result, on a prospective basis, changes in the fair value of these contracts will be recorded in earnings. Amounts previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will continue to be reclassified into earnings as the underlying item affects earnings. During the three months ended December 30, 2011, the Company recorded a pretax gain of $0.7 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the change in the fair value of these agreements. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, unrealized net of tax losses of approximately ($1.0) million and ($1.1) million were recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” for these contracts, respectively. The hedge ineffectiveness for the gasoline and diesel fuel hedging instruments for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was immaterial.
As of December 30, 2011, the Company had foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding with notional amounts of €58.8 million, £5.5 million and CAD29.0 million to mitigate the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on short-term intercompany loans to certain international subsidiaries. Gains and losses on these foreign currency exchange contracts are recognized in income currently as the contracts were not designated as hedging instruments, substantially offsetting currency transaction gains and losses on the short term intercompany loans.

Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement of the Parent Company, upon termination of employment from the Company or one of its subsidiaries, members of the Company’s management (other than Mr. Neubauer) who hold shares of common stock of the Parent Company can cause the Parent Company to repurchase all of their initial investment shares (as defined) or shares acquired as a result of the exercise of Installment Share Purchase Opportunities at appraised fair market value. Generally, payment for shares repurchased could be, at the Parent Company’s option, in cash or installment notes, which would be effectively subordinated to all indebtedness of the Company. The amount of this potential repurchase obligation has been classified outside of shareholder’s equity, which reflects the Parent Company’s investment basis and capital structure in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The amount of common stock subject to repurchase as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 was $163.2 million and $158.1 million, which is based on approximately 11.8 million and 12.4 million shares of common stock of the Parent Company valued at $13.82 and $12.73 per share, respectively. The fair value of the common stock subject to repurchase is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and comparable public company trading multiples. During the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately $14.5 million and $14.7 million of common stock of the Parent Company was repurchased, respectively, and has been reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Stockholders Agreement, the senior secured credit agreement, the indenture governing the 8.50% senior notes due 2015, the senior floating rate notes due 2015 and the indenture governing the notes issued by Holdings contain limitations on the amount the Company can expend for such share repurchases.
(9) | SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION: |

(10) | ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SECURITIZATION: |
The Company has an agreement (the Receivables Facility) with several financial institutions whereby it sells on a continuous basis an undivided interest in all eligible trade accounts receivable, as defined in the Receivables Facility. The maximum amount of the facility is $250 million, which expires in January 2013. Pursuant to the Receivables Facility, the Company formed ARAMARK Receivables, LLC, a wholly-owned, consolidated, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary. ARAMARK Receivables, LLC was formed for the sole purpose of buying and selling receivables generated by certain subsidiaries of the Company. Under the Receivables Facility, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries transfer without recourse all of their accounts receivable to ARAMARK Receivables, LLC. As collections reduce previously transferred interests, interests in new, eligible receivables are transferred to ARAMARK Receivables, LLC, subject to meeting certain conditions. At December 30, 2011, the amount of outstanding borrowings under the Receivables Facility was $250.0 million and is included in “Long-Term Borrowings.”

In the first and second fiscal quarters, within the Food and Support Services—North America segment, historically there has been a lower level of activity at the sports, entertainment and recreational food service operations that is partly offset by increased activity in the educational operations. However, in the third and fourth fiscal quarters, historically there has been a significant increase at sports, entertainment and recreational accounts that is partially offset by the effect of summer recess on the educational accounts.

(13) | NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD UPDATES: |
In January 2010, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that will require new disclosures about recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements. The new disclosures include significant transfers into and out of level 1 and 2 measurements and will change the current disclosure requirement of level 3 measurement activity from a net basis to a gross basis. The standard also clarifies existing disclosure guidance about the level of disaggregation, inputs and valuation techniques. The new and revised disclosures were effective for ARAMARK in fiscal 2010, except for the revised disclosures about level 3 measurement activity, which became effective for ARAMARK in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 (see Note 15).

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
In May 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that is intended to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The new standard does not extend the use of fair value but rather provides clarification of existing guidance and additional disclosures. The guidance is effective prospectively for the Company beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.
In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that simplifies how entities test goodwill for impairment. The amendment permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The update does not address impairment test of the indefinite-lived intangibles. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2013; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.
In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that modifies the presentation of comprehensive income in the financial statements. The standard requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This standard eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. In December 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which deferred the portion of this update related to the presentation of reclassification adjustments between other comprehensive income and net income. The guidance is effective retrospectively for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.
In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that requires companies participating in multiemployer pension plans to disclose more information about their involvement in the plans, specifically related to the amount of employer contributions made to each significant plan and to all plans in the aggregate, whether an employer’s contributions represent more than 5% of total contributions to the plan, whether any plans are subject to a funding improvement plan, the expiration date(s) of the collective bargaining agreement(s) and any minimum funding arrangements, the most recent certified funded status of the plan, as determined by the plan’s “zone status,” (required by the Pension Protection Act of 2006) and a description of the nature and effect of any changes affecting comparability for each period an income statement is presented. The guidance is effective for the Company’s 2012 fiscal year-end. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.
In December 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that requires companies with financial instruments and derivative instruments that are offset on the balance sheet or subject to a master netting arrangement to provide additional disclosures regarding the instruments impact on a company’s financial position. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement.
(14) | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: |
Certain of the Company’s lease arrangements, primarily vehicle leases, with terms of one to eight years, contain provisions related to residual value guarantees. The maximum potential liability to the Company under such arrangements was approximately $88.2 million at December 30, 2011 if the terminal fair value of vehicles coming off lease was zero. Consistent with past experience, management does not expect any significant payments will be required pursuant to these arrangements. No amounts have been accrued for guarantee arrangements at December 30, 2011.
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal actions and investigations involving claims incidental to the conduct of its business, including actions by clients, customers, employees, government entities and third parties, including under federal and state employment laws, wage and hour laws, immigration laws, human health and safety laws, import and export controls and customs laws, environmental laws, false claims statutes, minority business enterprise and women owned business enterprise statutes, contractual disputes, antitrust and competition laws and dram shop laws. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company has been informed that an Illinois state civil action has been filed against a subsidiary of the Company by an unnamed Relator under the Illinois Whistleblower Reward and Protection Act in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Department, Law Division. The action alleges, among other things, that the subsidiary has not complied with the requirement to contract with minority owned and women owned businesses in connection with its contracts with Cook County and seeks monetary damages. The Company has accrued its best estimate of this potential liability as of December 30, 2011.

(15) | FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES: |
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are classified based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The hierarchical levels related to the subjectivity of the valuation inputs are defined as follows:
| • | | Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets |
| • | | Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument |
| • | | Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement |
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, borrowings and derivatives. Management believes that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values. The fair value of the Company’s debt at December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 was $5,880.2 million and $5,505.7 million, respectively. The carrying value of the Company’s debt at December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 was $5,908.1 million and $5,637.7 million, respectively. The fair values were computed using market quotes, if available, or based on discounted cash flows using market interest rates as of the end of the respective periods.
At December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the following financial assets and financial liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the type of inputs shown (in thousands):

(16) | ARAMARK HOLDINGS CORPORATION (PARENT COMPANY): |
ARAMARK Holdings Corporation has 600.0 million common shares authorized, approximately 213.4 million common shares issued and approximately 203.5 million common shares outstanding as of December 30, 2011.
On April 18, 2011, the Parent Company completed a private placement of $600 million, net of a 1% discount, in aggregate principal amount of 8.625% / 9.375% Senior Notes due 2016 (the Parent Company Notes). Interest on the Parent Company Notes accrues at the rate of 8.625% per annum with respect to interest payments made in cash and 9.375% per annum with respect to any payment in-kind interest. The Parent Company Notes are obligations of the Parent Company, are not guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiaries and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries, including trade payables, the senior secured revolving credit facility, the senior secured term loan facility, 8.50% senior notes due 2015, senior floating rate notes due 2015 and 5.00% senior notes due 2012. The Parent Company is obligated to pay interest on the Parent Company Notes in cash to the extent the Company has sufficient capacity to distribute such amounts to the Parent Company under the covenants relating to the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, including the senior secured revolving credit facility, the senior secured term loan facility, the 8.50% senior notes due 2015 and the senior floating rate notes due 2015. If the Company does not have sufficient covenant capacity to distribute such amounts to the Parent Company, the Parent Company will have the ability to pay the interest on the Parent Company Notes through the issuance of additional notes.
At December 30, 2011, ARAMARK Holdings Corporation had long-term borrowings of $594.7 million, net of discount, interest payable of $8.4 million and unamortized deferred financing costs on the Parent Company Notes of $12.8 million. For the three months ended December 30, 2011, ARAMARK Holdings Corporation recorded Interest and Other Financing Costs, net, of $13.7 million. In November 2011, the Company distributed approximately $27.7 million to the Parent Company as an advance which was used to pay the interest on the Parent Company Notes. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the advance was reduced by approximately $14.9 million, reflecting a non-cash reduction in the Company’s income taxes payable due to the tax benefit attributable to the interest on the Parent Company Notes.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended December 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those statements, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011.
ARAMARK Corporation (the “Company” or “ARAMARK”) was acquired on January 26, 2007 through a merger transaction with RMK Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation controlled by investment funds associated with GS Capital Partners, CCMP Capital Advisors, J.P. Morgan Partners, Thomas H. Lee Partners and Warburg Pincus LLC (collectively, the “Sponsors”), Joseph Neubauer, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ARAMARK, and certain other members of the Company’s management. The acquisition was accomplished through the merger of RMK Acquisition Corporation with and into ARAMARK Corporation with ARAMARK Corporation being the surviving company (the “Transaction”).
The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ARAMARK Intermediate Holdco Corporation, which is wholly-owned by ARAMARK Holdings Corporation (the “Parent Company”). ARAMARK Holdings Corporation, ARAMARK Intermediate Holdco Corporation and RMK Acquisition Corporation were formed for the purpose of facilitating the Transaction.
On March 30, 2007, ARAMARK Corporation was merged with and into ARAMARK Services, Inc. with ARAMARK Services, Inc. being the surviving corporation. In connection with the consummation of the merger, ARAMARK Services, Inc. changed its name to ARAMARK Corporation.
Our discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, opinions, expectations, anticipations, intentions and beliefs. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in those forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, certain financial measures may be considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. These rules require supplemental explanation and reconciliation, which is provided elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our fiscal 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. As described in such notes, the Company recognizes sales in the period in which services are provided pursuant to the terms of our contractual relationships with our clients. Sales from direct marketing activities are recognized upon shipment.
In preparing our financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that, among other things, affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are most significant where they involve levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or matters susceptible to change, and where they can have a material impact on our financial condition and operating performance. We discuss below the more significant estimates and related assumptions used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. If actual results were to differ materially from the estimates made, the reported results could be materially affected.
Asset Impairment Determinations
Goodwill and the ARAMARK and Seamless trade names are indefinite lived intangible assets that are not amortizable and are subject to an impairment test that we conduct annually or more frequently if a change in circumstances or the occurrence of events indicates that potential impairment exists, using discounted cash flows. The Company performs its assessment of goodwill at the reporting unit level. Within the Food and Support Services—International segment, each country is evaluated separately since such operating units are relatively autonomous and separate goodwill balances have been recorded for each entity.
With respect to our other long-lived assets, we are required to test for asset impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment are present, the Company compares the sum of the future expected cash flows from the asset, undiscounted and without interest charges, to the asset’s carrying value. If the sum of the future expected cash flows from the asset is less than the carrying value, an impairment would be recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value of the asset.
23
In making future cash flow analyses of various assets, the Company makes assumptions relating to the following:
| • | | The intended use of assets and the expected future cash flows resulting directly from such use; |
| • | | Comparable market valuations of businesses similar to ARAMARK’s business segments; |
| • | | Industry specific economic conditions; |
| • | | Competitor activities and regulatory initiatives; and |
| • | | Client and customer preferences and behavior patterns. |
We believe that an accounting estimate relating to asset impairment is a critical accounting estimate because the assumptions underlying future cash flow estimates are subject to change from time to time and the recognition of an impairment could have a significant impact on our consolidated statement of income.
Environmental Loss Contingencies
Accruals for environmental loss contingencies (i.e., environmental reserves) are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can reasonably be estimated. Management views the measurement of environmental reserves as a critical accounting estimate because of the considerable uncertainty surrounding estimation, including the need to forecast well into the future. We are involved in legal proceedings under federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws in connection with our operations or businesses conducted by our predecessors or companies that we have acquired. The calculation of environmental reserves is based on the evaluation of currently available information, prior experience in the remediation of contaminated sites and assumptions with respect to government regulations and enforcement activity, changes in remediation technology and practices, and financial obligations and creditworthiness of other responsible parties and insurers.
Litigation and Claims
The Company is a party to various legal actions and investigations including, among others, employment matters, compliance with government regulations, including import and export controls and customs laws, federal and state employment laws, including wage and hour laws, immigration laws, human health and safety laws, dram shop laws, environmental laws, false claim statutes, minority business enterprise and women owned business enterprise statutes, contractual disputes and other matters, including matters arising in the ordinary course of business. These claims may be brought by, among others, the government, clients, customers, employees and third parties. Management considers the measurement of litigation reserves as a critical accounting estimate because of the significant uncertainty in some cases relating to the outcome of potential claims or litigation and the difficulty of predicting the likelihood and range of potential liability involved, coupled with the material impact on our results of operations that could result from litigation or other claims. In determining legal reserves, management considers, among other issues:
| • | | Interpretation of contractual rights and obligations; |
| • | | The status of government regulatory initiatives, interpretations and investigations; |
| • | | The status of settlement negotiations; |
| • | | Prior experience with similar types of claims; |
| • | | Whether there is available insurance; and |
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We encounter risks associated with sales and the collection of the associated accounts receivable. We record a provision for accounts receivable that are considered to be uncollectible. In order to calculate the appropriate provision, management analyzes the creditworthiness of specific customers and the aging of customer balances. Management also considers general and specific industry economic conditions, industry concentrations, such as exposure to small and medium-sized businesses, the non-profit healthcare sector and the automotive, airline and financial services industries, and contractual rights and obligations. Management believes that the accounting estimate related to the allowance for doubtful accounts is a critical accounting estimate because the underlying assumptions used for the allowance can change from time to time and uncollectible accounts could potentially have a material impact on our results of operations.
24
Inventory Obsolescence
We record an inventory obsolescence reserve for obsolete, excess and slow-moving inventory, principally in the Uniform and Career Apparel segment. In calculating our inventory obsolescence reserve, management analyzes historical and projected data regarding customer demand within specific product categories and makes assumptions regarding economic conditions within customer specific industries, as well as style and product changes. Management believes that its accounting estimate related to inventory obsolescence is a critical accounting estimate because customer demand in certain of our businesses can be variable and changes in our reserve for inventory obsolescence could materially affect our results of operations.
Income Taxes
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and for deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. We must make assumptions, judgments and estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes and also our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance to be recorded against a deferred tax asset. Our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to the current provision for income taxes take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. Changes in tax law or our interpretation of tax laws and the resolution of current and future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to the amount of deferred income taxes take into account estimates of the amount of future taxable income, and actual operating results in future years could render our current assumptions, judgments and estimates inaccurate. Any of the assumptions, judgments and estimates mentioned above could cause our actual income tax obligations to differ from our estimates.
Share-Based Compensation
We value our employee share-based awards using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model uses assumptions of expected volatility, the expected dividend yield of our stock, the expected term of the awards and the risk-free interest rate. Since our stock is not publicly traded, the expected volatility is based on an average of the historical volatility of our competitors’ stocks over the expected term of the share-based awards. The dividend yield assumption is based on our history and expected future dividend payouts. The expected term of share award represents the weighted-average period the share award is expected to remain outstanding. The expected term was calculated using the simplified method permitted under SEC rules and regulations due to the lack of history. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon the rate applicable to the U.S. Treasury security with a maturity equal to the expected term of the option on the grant date.
As share-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. The authoritative accounting pronouncement for share-based compensation expense requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures were estimated based on our historical experience.
For the Performance-Based Options, management must assess the probability of the achievement of the earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) targets, as defined in the ARAMARK Holdings Corporation 2007 Management Stock Incentive Plan. If the EBIT targets are not probable of achievement, changes in the recognition of share-based compensation expense may occur. Management makes its probability assessments based on the Company’s actual and projected results of operations.
Management believes that the accounting estimate related to the expense of share-based awards is a critical accounting estimate because the underlying assumptions can change from time to time and, as a result, the compensation expense that we record in future periods may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the current period with respect to similar instruments.
Fair Value of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are classified based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The hierarchical levels related to the subjectivity of the valuation inputs are defined as follows:
| • | | Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets |
| • | | Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument |
| • | | Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement |
25
We disclosed the fair values of our assets and liabilities in Note 15 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Management believes that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair values. The fair value of the Company’s debt was computed using market quotes, if available, or based on discounted cash flows using market interest rates as of the end of the period. The fair values for interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency forward exchange contracts and natural gas, gasoline and diesel fuel agreements are based on quoted market prices from various banks for similar instruments, adjusted for the Company and the counterparties’ credit risk. The Company performs an independent review of these values to determine if they are reasonable. The fair value of our derivative instruments are impacted by changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and the prices of natural gas, gasoline and diesel fuel. The fair value of our common stock subject to repurchase is derived principally from unobservable inputs. Management believes that the accounting estimate related to the fair value of our financial assets and financial liabilities is a critical accounting estimate due to its complexity and the significant judgments and estimates involved in determining fair value in the absence of quoted market prices.
*****
Critical accounting estimates and the related assumptions are evaluated periodically as conditions warrant, and changes to such estimates are recorded as new information or changed conditions require.

Consolidated Overview
Sales of $3.4 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 represented an increase of 4% over the prior year period. This increase is primarily attributable to growth in the Higher Education business and Healthcare sector of the Food and Support Services—North America segment and growth in Ireland, Germany, Spain, Chile and Argentina in our Food and Support Services—International segment and the impact of acquisitions (approximately 2%). This increase was partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation (approximately -1%) and the sales decline in our Sports & Entertainment sector, primarily due to the National Basketball Association lockout, in our Food and Support Services—North America segment and in China and Korea in our Food and Support Services—International segment.
Operating income was $166.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to $163.8 million in the prior year period. This increase is primarily attributable to profit growth in our Higher Education business, our Healthcare sector and in Chile and Ireland. Operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 also includes operational efficiencies in the U.K., a favorable risk insurance adjustment of $7.4 million related to favorable claims experience, of which $5.7 million relates to our uniform rental business, planned transition and integration costs of $3.5 million related to the Filterfresh acquisition and severance related charges of $5.3 million within the Uniform and Career Apparel segment and Food and Support Services—International segment. The first quarter of fiscal 2011 includes other income recognized of $7.8 million related to a compensation agreement signed with the National Park Service (NPS) under which the NPS agreed to pay down a portion of our investment (possessory interest) in certain assets at one of our NPS sites in our Sports & Entertainment sector, a favorable risk insurance adjustment of $5.7 million related to favorable claims experience, of which $4.8 million relates to our million uniform rental business and severance related charges of approximately $10.1 million.
26
Interest and other financing costs, net, for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $108.8 million as compared to $109.1 million in the prior year period. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was 32.6% compared to 29.7% in the prior year period. The change in both periods principally reflects the relative mix and amount of U.S. and non-U.S. income or loss and the impact of tax credits relative to pretax amounts.
Income from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $39.1 million compared to $38.4 million in the prior year period. Income (loss) from discontinued operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $0.3 million as compared to ($0.1) million in the prior year period. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $0.7 million.

Food and Support Services—North America Segment
Food and Support Services—North America segment sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 increased 6% over the prior year period as growth in the Higher Education business and Healthcare sector and the positive impact of acquisitions (approximately 3%) more than offset the sales decline in our Sports & Entertainment sector. The Business & Industry sector had high-single digit sales growth, due primarily to base business growth in our food and facilities services businesses and the Filterfresh acquisition. The Education sector had mid-single digit sales growth, due to base and net new business growth in our Higher Education food and facilities services businesses. The Healthcare sector had high-single digit sales growth primarily due to base business growth and the acquisition of Masterplan within the clinical technology services business. The Sports & Entertainment sector had a low-single digit sales decline primarily related to the National Basketball Association lockout and fewer Major League Baseball playoff games in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the prior year period.
Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $126.2 million compared to $128.4 million in the prior year period as profit growth in our Higher Education business and Healthcare sector was more than offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation (approximately -1%), planned transition and integration costs of $3.5 million related to the Filterfresh acquisition, profit decline in the Business & Industry sector and the other income recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 of $7.8 million related to a compensation agreement signed with the NPS under which the NPS agreed to pay down a portion of our investment (possessory interest) in certain assets at one of our NPS sites in our Sports & Entertainment sector.
Food and Support Services—International Segment
Sales in the Food and Support Services—International segment for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 increased 2% compared to the prior year period as growth in Ireland, Germany, Spain, Chile and Argentina more than offset the negative impact of foreign currency translation (approximately -2%) and the sales decline in Korea and China, which benefited from our operations at the Asian Games during the prior year quarter.
27
Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $20.6 million compared to $12.5 million in the prior year period. This increase is primarily attributable to profit growth in Germany and Chile, cost reduction efforts in the U.K., the positive impact of foreign currency translation (approximately 6%) and a reduction in severance related expenses. Operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 includes severance related expenses of $1.3 million compared to $6.7 million in the prior year period. Operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 also benefited from a favorable non-income tax settlement in the U.K. of $2.6 million.
Uniform and Career Apparel Segment
Uniform and Career Apparel segment sales decreased 1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decline in our direct marketing business.
Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $33.0 million compared to $34.5 million in the prior year period. This decrease is due to severance related charges of $4.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which offset favorable risk insurance adjustments related to favorable claims experience. Operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 includes a favorable risk insurance adjustment of $5.7 million compared to $4.8 million in the prior year period. Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 includes severance related charges of $1.2 million.
Corporate
Corporate expenses, those administrative expenses not allocated to the business segments, were $12.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to $11.6 million for the prior year period. The increase is mainly due to the increase in share-based compensation expense (see Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements) which more than offset the prior year charges for headcount reductions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Reference to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows will facilitate understanding of the discussion that follows.
Cash used in operating activities was $107.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to $388.2 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2011. The principal components (in millions) of the net change of $281.1 million were:
| | | | | | |
• | | Decrease in the total of net income and noncash charges | | $ | (0.4 | ) |
• | | Impact of accounting change related to accounts receivable securitization | | | 220.9 | |
• | | Decreased working capital requirements | | | 52.6 | |
• | | Other, net | | | 8.0 | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | $ | 281.1 | |
| | | | | | |
The net change in cash flows used in operating activities was driven by the new accounting treatment for the Company’s accounts receivable securitization agreement. On October 2, 2010, the Company adopted new accounting guidance that affected the presentation of its accounts receivables securitization program, through which the Company sells eligible accounts receivables on a revolving basis. As a result of implementing the new guidance, funding under the agreement of $220.9 million on October 2, 2010 was reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as a use of cash from the securitization of accounts receivables under net cash used in operating activities and as a source of cash under net cash provided by financing activities. As expected and consistent with historical patterns, working capital was a use of cash for us during the first quarter. The change in working capital requirements relates principally to changes in Accounts Receivable (approximately $39.3 million), primarily due to the timing of collections, Accounts Payable (approximately $19.0 million), due to timing of disbursements and Accrued Expenses (approximately $19.0 million) related to payments of certain expenditures and severance related costs, offset by Inventory (approximately $13.8 million), primarily due to the growth of the business. The increase in “Other, net” is related to adjustments to net income in the prior year period related to nonoperating gains and losses.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, ARAMARK Refreshment Services, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Van Houtte USA Holdings, Inc. (doing business as “Filterfresh”), a refreshment services company, for approximately $145.2 million. The acquisition was financed with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, if a certain significant customer relationship was not maintained within a specific timeframe, the Company was entitled to a refund of a portion of the purchase price. In January 2012, the Company received a refund of approximately $7.4 million related to the termination of this customer relationship.

On April 18, 2011, the Parent Company completed a private placement of $600 million, net of a 1% discount, in aggregate principal amount of 8.625% / 9.375% Senior Notes due 2016 (the Parent Company Notes). Interest on the Parent Company Notes accrues at the rate of 8.625% per annum with respect to interest payments made in cash and 9.375% per annum with respect to any payment in-kind interest. The Parent Company Notes are obligations of the Parent Company, are not guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiaries and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries, including trade payables, the senior secured revolving credit facility, the senior secured term loan facility, 8.50% senior notes due 2015, senior floating rate notes due 2015 and 5.00% senior notes due 2012. The Parent Company is obligated to pay interest on the Parent Company Notes in cash to the extent the Company has sufficient capacity to distribute such amounts to the Parent Company under the covenants relating to the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, including the senior secured revolving credit facility, the senior secured term loan facility, the 8.50% senior notes due 2015 and the senior floating rate notes due 2015. If the Company does not have sufficient covenant capacity to distribute such amounts to the Parent Company, the Parent Company will have the ability to pay the interest on the Parent Company Notes through the issuance of additional notes. In November 2011, the Company distributed approximately $27.7 million to the Parent Company as an advance, which was used to pay the interest on the Parent Company Notes. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the advance was reduced by approximately $14.9 million, reflecting a non-cash reduction in the Company’s income taxes payable due to the tax benefit attributable to the interest on the Parent Company Notes.
The Company’s 5.00% senior notes, contractually due in June 2012, have been classified as noncurrent in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as the Company has the ability and intent to finance the repayments through additional borrowings under the senior secured credit agreement.
Management believes that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and the unused portion of our committed credit availability under our senior secured revolving credit facility (approximately $347.6 million and $394.7 million at January 27, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively) will be adequate to meet anticipated cash requirements to fund working capital, capital spending, debt service obligations, refinancings and other cash needs. We believe we enjoy a strong liquidity position overall and we will continue to seek to invest strategically but prudently in certain sectors and geographies. Over time, the Company has repositioned its service portfolio so that
29
today a significant portion of the operating income in our Food and Support Services—North America segment comes from sectors such as education, healthcare and corrections, which we believe to be economically less sensitive. In addition, we have worked to further diversify our international business by geography and sector. The Company also monitors its cash flow and the condition of the capital markets in order to be prepared to respond to changing conditions.
As of December 30, 2011, the senior secured term loan facility consisted of the following subfacilities: a U.S. dollar denominated term loan to the Company in the amount of $1,333.7 million (un-extended) and $1,407.4 million (extended); a yen denominated term loan to the Company in the amount of ¥5,150.9 million; a U.S. dollar denominated term loan to a Canadian subsidiary in the amount of $161.9 million; a Euro denominated term loan to an Irish subsidiary in an amount of €41.8 million; a sterling denominated term loan to a U.K. subsidiary in an amount of £115.9 million; and a Euro denominated term loan to German subsidiaries in the amount of €64.5 million. As of December 30, 2011, there was approximately $482.2 million outstanding in foreign currency borrowings.
Covenant Compliance
The senior secured credit agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to: incur additional indebtedness; issue preferred stock or provide guarantees; create liens on assets; engage in mergers or consolidations; sell assets; pay dividends, make distributions or repurchase our capital stock; make investments, loans or advances; repay or repurchase any notes, except as scheduled or at maturity; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from our restricted subsidiaries; make certain acquisitions; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; amend material agreements governing the notes (or any indebtedness that refinances the notes); and fundamentally change the Company’s business. The indenture governing the 8.50% senior notes due 2015 and the senior floating rate notes due 2015 contains similar provisions. As of December 30, 2011, we were in compliance with these covenants.
Under the senior secured credit agreement and the indenture governing the 8.50% senior notes due 2015 and the senior floating rate notes due 2015, we are required to satisfy and maintain specified financial ratios and other financial condition tests and covenants. Our continued ability to meet those financial ratios, tests and covenants can be affected by events beyond our control, and we cannot assure you that we will meet those ratios, tests and covenants.
EBITDA is defined for purposes of these covenants as net income (loss) plus interest and other financing costs, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined for purposes of these covenants as EBITDA, further adjusted to give effect to adjustments required in calculating covenant ratios and compliance under our senior secured credit agreement and the indenture. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), are not measures of financial performance or condition, liquidity or profitability, and should not be considered as an alternative to (1) net income, operating income or any other performance measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP or (2) operating cash flows determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements.
Our presentation of EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information about the calculation of certain financial covenants in the senior secured credit agreement and the indenture. Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these covenants. For instance, our senior secured credit agreement and the indenture contain financial ratios that are calculated by reference to Adjusted EBITDA. Non-compliance with the maximum Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio contained in our senior secured credit agreement could result in the requirement to immediately repay all amounts outstanding under such agreement, while non-compliance with the Interest Coverage Ratio contained in our senior secured credit agreement and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio contained in the indenture could prohibit us from being able to incur additional indebtedness, other than the additional funding provided for under the senior secured credit agreement and pursuant to specified exceptions, and make certain restricted payments.
30
The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to ARAMARK shareholder, which is a U.S. GAAP measure of our operating results, to Adjusted EBITDA as defined in our debt agreements. The terms and related calculations are defined in the senior secured credit agreement and indenture.

(1) | Represents share-based compensation expense resulting from the application of accounting for stock options, Installment Stock Purchase Opportunities and deferred stock unit awards (see Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). |
(2) | During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company realized a pretax loss of approximately $1.5 million (net of tax loss of approximately $12.0 million) on the sale of the Galls business and an additional $1.3 million gain on the sale of the 67% ownership interest in a security business in our Chilean subsidiary. During the three months ended April 1, 2011, the Company realized a $6.4 million gain on the sale of its 67% ownership interest in a security business in the Company’s Chilean subsidiary and recorded a $5.3 million goodwill and other intangible assets impairment charge. |
(3) | Represents our estimated share of EBITDA from our AIM Services Co., Ltd. equity method investment not already reflected in our EBITDA. EBITDA for this equity method investee is calculated in a manner consistent with consolidated EBITDA but does not represent cash distributions received from this investee. |
(4) | Represents the annualizing of estimated EBITDA from acquisitions and divestitures made during the period. |
(5) | During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company sold a noncontrolling ownership interest in Seamless North America, LLC. The terms of the sale agreement stipulated that Seamless North America, LLC cease to qualify as a Restricted Subsidiary under the senior secured credit agreement, and as a result, its EBITDA for all periods presented must be excluded from the Company’s consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. |
(6) | Other includes certain other miscellaneous items (the three months ended December 30, 2011, September 30, 2011, July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011 include approximately $6.7 million, $5.9 million, $2.3 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of severance and other related costs incurred by the Company). |
Our covenant requirements and actual ratios for the twelve months ended December 30, 2011 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Covenant Requirements | | | Actual Ratios | |
Maximum Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio (1) | | | 4.75x | | | | 3.33x | |
Interest Coverage Ratio (Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio) (2) | | | 2.00x | | | | 2.67x | |
(1) | Our senior secured credit agreement requires us to maintain a maximum Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio, defined as consolidated total indebtedness secured by a lien to Adjusted EBITDA, of 5.875x, being reduced over time to 4.25x by the end of 2013. Consolidated total indebtedness secured by a lien is defined in the senior secured credit agreement as total indebtedness outstanding under the senior secured credit agreement, capital leases, advances under the Receivables Facility and any other indebtedness secured by a lien reduced by the lesser of the amount of cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet that is free and clear of any lien and $75 million. Non-compliance with the maximum Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio could result in the requirement to immediately repay all amounts outstanding under such agreement, which, if the Company’s revolving credit facility lenders failed to waive any such default, would also constitute a default under our indenture. |
(2) | Our senior secured credit agreement establishes an incurrence-based minimum Interest Coverage Ratio, defined as Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated interest expense, the achievement of which is a condition for us to incur additional indebtedness and to make certain restricted payments. If we do not maintain this minimum Interest Coverage Ratio calculated on a pro forma basis for any such additional indebtedness or restricted payments, we could be prohibited from being able to incur additional indebtedness, other than the additional funding provided for under the senior secured credit agreement and pursuant to specified |
31
| exceptions, and make certain restricted payments, other than pursuant to certain exceptions. The minimum Interest Coverage Ratio is 2.00x for the term of the senior secured credit agreement. Consolidated interest expense is defined in the senior secured credit agreement as consolidated interest expense excluding interest income, adjusted for acquisitions and dispositions, further adjusted for certain non-cash or nonrecurring interest expense and our estimated share of interest expense from one equity method investee. The indenture includes a similar requirement which is referred to as a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. |
The Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates or significant shareholders may from time to time, in their sole discretion, purchase, repay, redeem or retire any of the Company’s outstanding debt securities (including any publicly issued debt securities), in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, or extend or refinance any of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness.
Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement of the Parent Company, upon termination of employment from the Company or one of its subsidiaries, members of the Company’s management (other than Mr. Neubauer) who hold shares of common stock of the Parent Company can cause the Parent Company to repurchase all of their initial investment shares (as defined) or shares acquired as a result of the exercise of Installment Share Purchase Opportunities at appraised fair market value. Generally, payment for shares repurchased could be, at the Parent Company’s option, in cash or installment notes. The amount of common stock subject to repurchase as of December 30, 2011 was $163.2 million, which is based on approximately 11.8 million shares of common stock of the Parent Company valued at $13.82 per share. The Stockholders Agreement, the senior secured credit agreement and the indenture governing the 8.50% senior notes due 2015, the senior floating rate notes due 2015 and the indenture governing the notes issued by Holdings contain limitations on the amount that can be expended for such share repurchases.
The Company has an agreement (the Receivables Facility) with several financial institutions whereby it sells on a continuous basis an undivided interest in all eligible accounts receivable, as defined in the Receivables Facility. The maximum amount of the Receivables Facility is $250 million, which expires in January 2013. Pursuant to the Receivables Facility, the Company formed ARAMARK Receivables, LLC, a wholly-owned, consolidated, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary. ARAMARK Receivables, LLC was formed for the sole purpose of transferring receivables generated by certain subsidiaries of the Company. Under the Receivables Facility, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries transfer without recourse all of their accounts receivable to ARAMARK Receivables, LLC. As collections reduce previously transferred interests, interests in new, eligible receivables are transferred to ARAMARK Receivables, LLC, subject to meeting certain conditions. As of December 30, 2011, approximately $250.0 million was outstanding under the Receivables Facility and is included in “Long-Term Borrowings” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Amounts borrowed under the Receivables Facility fluctuate monthly based on the Company’s funding requirements and the level of qualified receivables available to collateralize the Receivables Facility.
The Company’s business activities do not include the use of unconsolidated special purpose entities, and there are no significant business transactions that have not been reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Company is self-insured for a limited portion of the risk retained under its general liability and workers’ compensation arrangements. Self-insurance reserves are recorded based on actuarial analyses.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Our business is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations governing, among other things, the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of water wastes and other substances. We engage in informal settlement discussions with federal, state, local and foreign authorities regarding allegations of violations of environmental laws in connection with our operations or businesses conducted by our predecessors or companies that we have acquired, the aggregate amount of which and related remediation costs we do not believe should have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
From time to time, we are a party to various legal actions and investigations involving claims incidental to the conduct of our business, including actions by clients, customers, employees, government entities and third parties, including under federal and state employment laws, wage and hour laws, immigration laws, human health and safety laws, import and export controls and customs laws, environmental laws, false claims statutes, minority business enterprise and women owned business enterprise statutes, contractual disputes, antitrust and competition laws and dram shop laws. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that any such current actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, in the event of unexpected future developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
32
We have been informed that an Illinois state civil action has been filed against a subsidiary of the Company by an unnamed Relator under the Illinois Whistleblower Reward and Protection Act in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Department, Law Division. The action alleges, among other things, that the subsidiary has not complied with the requirement to contract with minority owned and women owned businesses in connection with its contracts with Cook County and seeks monetary damages. The Company intends to vigorously defend the action.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD UPDATES
See Note 13 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a full description of recent accounting standard updates, including the expected dates of adoption.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that reflect our current views as to future events and financial performance with respect to our operations. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They use words such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “are confident,” “estimate,” “expect,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words and terms of similar meaning in conjunction with a discussion of future operating or financial performance.
These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include: unfavorable economic conditions, including ramifications of any future terrorist attacks or increased security alert levels; increased operating costs, including increased food costs, labor-related, energy or product sourcing and distribution costs; shortages of qualified personnel or increases in labor costs; the impact on our business of healthcare reform legislation; costs and possible effects of further unionization of our workforce; liability resulting from our participation in multi-employer defined benefit pension plans; currency risks and other risks associated with international markets; risks associated with acquisitions, including acquisition integration issues and costs; our ability to integrate and derive the expected benefits from our recent acquisitions; competition; a decline in attendance at client facilities; the unpredictability of sales and expenses due to contract terms and terminations; the impact of natural disasters or a flu pandemic on our sales and operating results; the risk that clients may become insolvent; the risk that our insurers may become insolvent or may liquidate; the contract intensive nature of our business, which may lead to client disputes; high leverage; claims relating to the provision of food services; costs of compliance with governmental regulations and government investigations; liability associated with noncompliance with our business conduct policy and governmental regulations, including regulations pertaining to food services, the environment, the Federal school lunch program, Federal and state employment and wage and hour laws, minority business enterprise and women-owned business enterprise statutes, human health and safety laws and import and export controls and customs laws; dram shop compliance and litigation; contract compliance and administration issues, inability to retain current clients and renew existing client contracts; a determination by customers to reduce their outsourcing and use of preferred vendors; seasonality; our competitor’s activities or announced planned activities; the effect on our operations of increased leverage and limitations on our flexibility as a result of increased restrictions in our debt agreements; potential future conflicts of interest between our Sponsors and other stakeholders; the impact on our business if we are unable to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness; the inability of our subsidiaries to generate enough cash flow to repay our debt; risks related to the structuring of our debt; our potential inability to repurchase our notes upon a change of control; and other risks that are set forth in the “Risk Factors,” “Legal Proceedings” and “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections and other sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect the events or circumstances arising after the date as of which they are made. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements included in this report or that may be made in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or elsewhere from time to time by, or on behalf of, us.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and manage this exposure through the use of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt and by utilizing interest rate swaps. We do not enter into contracts for trading purposes and do not use leveraged instruments. The market risk associated with debt obligations as of December 30, 2011 has not materially changed from September 30, 2011 (See Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011). See Note 7 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the Company’s derivative instruments and Note 15 for the disclosure of the fair value and related carrying value of the Company’s debt obligations as of December 30, 2011.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
33
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report, are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(c) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the Company’s first fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
See Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Legal Proceedings” for a description of the Company’s legal proceedings.
