Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) General
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring items) necessary to summarize fairly the Company's financial position
at January 31, 2005 and the results of operations and the cash flows for the
three months ended January 31, 2005 and 2004.
The Company suggests that the unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements for the three months ended January 31, 2005 be read in conjunction
with the Company's Annual Report for the year ended October 31, 2004.
(2) Restatement of Finaancial Statements
Subsequent to October 31, 2004 management determined that the procedures used to
record workers compensation reserves were inappropriate and resulted in
inadequate reserves being recorded historically for estimated workers
compensation costs and claims. This information was reported to the Audit
Committee and the Audit Committee initiated procedures which ultimately lead to
the special investigation described in Note 9. As a result, and because the 2004
year-end financial closing process identified adjustments to prior period
financial statements, the Company restated its consolidated financial statements
for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2003 and 2002 and for the quarters ended
January 31, 2003 to July 31, 2004.
4
Effects of Restatement on Net Income
The following table identifies the adjustments made to previously-released
consolidated financial statements:
Three Months
Ended
Description of Adjustment January 31,
($ In thousands) 2004(1)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Workers Compensation Reserve Adjustments(2) $ 240
Uncollectible Rebates(3) (7)
Other Accrued Expenses(4) (86)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total pre-tax impact $ 147
Income tax(5) (50)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Net Income Impact $ 97
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) As originally reported by the Company for the quarter ended January 31,
2004.
(2) Reflects adjustments to workers' compensation liability reserves which had
not previously been recorded. Amounts in the three-month period ended
January 31, 2004 also reflect adjustment to expense which should have been
recorded in prior periods.
Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income: Adjustments
decreased cost of sales by the amounts set forth in this table.
Consolidated Balance Sheets: Cumulative adjustments decrease accrued
expenses by $1,795 for the period ended January 31, 2004.
(3) Corrections to the estimate of rebate collectibility at January 31, 2004.
Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income: Adjustments
increased cost of sales by the amounts set forth in this table.
Consolidated Balance Sheets: Adjustments decreased accounts receivable by
$7 for the period ended January 31, 2004.
(4) Relates to the correction of product liability expense, management bonus,
unaccrued facilities expense and product concessions.. Consolidated
Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income: Adjustments increased sales
by $54 and cost of sales by $114 and selling, general and administrative
costs by $26.
Consolidated Balance Sheets: Cumulative adjustments decreased receivables
by $6, and increased accounts payable by $37 and increased accrued expenses
by $111 for the period ended January 31, 2004.
(5) Income tax benefit related to the adjustments above
Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income: Adjustments
increased income tax expense by the amounts set forth in this table.
Consolidated Balance Sheets: Cumulative adjustments increased prepaid
expenses and other current assets by $700 for the period ended January 31,
2004.
As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company's unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended January 31,
2004 have been restated from amounts previously reported. The accompanying
consolidated financial data set forth below presents the Company's consolidated
Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended January
31, 2004 and Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 31, 2004 on a comparative
5
basis showing the amounts as originally reported and as restated. The
restatement did not result in any change in the Consolidated Statement of Cash
Flows between Cash Provided by Operations, Investing and Financing Activities.
As a result of the restatement of the consolidated financial statements for the
quarter ended January 31, 2004 net income increased by $97,151, or $.02 per
share - diluted to $32,394 from a net loss of ($64,757) or ($.01) per share -
diluted as previously reported. All applicable financial information contained
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q gives effect to these restatements.

Inventories, which include material, labor, and manufacturing overhead, are
stated at the lower of cost (FIFO) or market.
Major classes of inventories as of January 31, 2005 and October 31, 2004,
consisted of the following:
January 31, 2005 October 31, 2004
Chassis $5,835,225 $ 5,767,019

=========== ===========
(4) Earnings per Share
Dilutive securities, consisting of options to purchase the Company's common
stock and restricted stock awards, are included in the calculation of diluted
weighted average common shares. Due to a net loss, there were no dilutive
securities for the three month period ended January 31, 2005. Dilutive
securities for the three month period ended January 31, 2004 were 320,003.
(5) Contingencies and Litigation
At January 31, 2005, the Company had contingencies and pending litigation which
arose in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to many
uncertainties and the outcome of the individual matters is not presently
determinable. It is management's opinion that this litigation would not result
in liabilities that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
Certain workers compensation claims have been denied by the Company's excess
liability insurance carrier. Reserves have been recorded assuming no recovery
from the excess insurance carrier is received. Management is disputing the
denial of coverage by the excess liability insurance carrier but recovery of any
amounts is contingent and management cannot provide any assurances regarding
recovery of any amounts. The amount of excess coverage being disputed is
approximately $0.6 million.
The Company was advised on February 25, 2005 that the SEC initiated a
preliminary investigation of certain accounting practices of the Company. The
Company is cooperating with the SEC.

(6) Segment Information
The Company has three reportable segments: ambulances, buses and terminal
trucks/road construction equipment. The ambulance segment produces modular and
van type ambulances for sale to hospitals, ambulance services, fire departments
and other governmental agencies. The bus segment produces small school buses,
commercial buses and shuttle buses for sale to schools, hotel shuttle services,
airports, and other governmental agencies. The terminal truck/road construction
equipment segment produces off road trucks designed to move trailers and
containers for warehouses, truck terminals, rail yards, rail terminals and
shipping ports and produces a line of road construction equipment.

(7) Guarantees and Warranties
Letters of Credit
The Company has issued various standby letters of credit in the ordinary course
of business. No liability has been reflected in the accompanying balance sheet
and no draws on the Company's standby letters of credit have ever been made. The
currently outstanding standby letters of credit are limited to (i) a letter of
credit originally issued approximately 16 years ago (renewable annually) as
required under Kansas law to backup self-insured reserves for workers
compensation insurance, (ii) a declining standby letter of credit required under
Texas law to backup certain industrial revenue bonds issued for a plant
expansion in Longview, Texas in 1999 that is renewable annually and (iii) other
standby letters of credit related to periodic bids and
10
issued for other similar purposes. A default in meeting an obligation or
condition under the above-referenced standby letters of credit could require the
Company to record a liability. The letters of credit outstanding at January 31,
2005 are summarized as follows:
Date of
Purpose Amount Expiration
Workers compensation - Kansas self-insurance reserves $1,373,000 April 1, 2006
Industrial revenue bond-Longview, Texas [1] 1,618,411 September 16, 2005
Bids and other 648,818 Various
[1] All assets (originally $3.0 million) acquired with the proceeds of the
Longview, Texas industrial revenue bonds would also be available to offset any
defaults under these obligations. The liquidation amount of such assets is not
reasonably estimable.
Warranties
The Company's products generally carry explicit product warranties that extend
from several months to more than a year, based on terms that are generally
accepted in the marketplace. Certain components included in the Company's end
products (such as chassis, engines, axles, transmissions, tires, etc.) may
include warranties from original equipment manufacturers (OEM). These OEM
warranties are generally passed on to the end customer of the Company's products
and the customer generally deals directly with the applicable component
manufacturer. The Company records provisions for estimated warranty and other
related costs at the time of sale based on historical warranty loss experience
and periodically adjusts these provisions to reflect actual experience. Certain
warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that ultimately are
resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. Infrequently, a material
warranty issue may arise which is beyond the scope of the Company's historical
experience. The Company provides for any such warranty issues as they become
known and estimable. It is reasonably possible that from time to time additional
warranty and other related claims could arise from disputes or other matters
beyond the scope of the Company's historical experience. The following tables
provide the changes in the Company's product warranties (in thousands):

(8) Stock Based Compensation
At January 31, 2005, the Company had two stock-based employee compensation
plans, which are more fully described in Note 6 of the "Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements" in the Company's 2004 Form 10-K. The Company accounts for
these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations. No
stock based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted
under those plans had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market
value
11
of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. No stock options have been
granted since 1999 and therefore, no proforma net income disclosures are
required.
(9) Audit Committee Investigation
On January 31, 2005, the Company announced that it was delaying filing of its
Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2004 as Company management and the
Audit Committee of its Board of Directors were investigating and analyzing the
Company's manner of establishing reserves in various worker's compensation cases
in the states of Kansas and Florida. The decision to delay filing of the Form
10-K for the year ended October 31, 2004 was made to permit the Company's
management and Audit Committee to complete the investigation and analysis, and
to allow its independent registered public accounting firm sufficient time to
complete the audit of the Company's October 31, 2004 financial statements.
The Audit Committee hired independent legal counsel and an independent insurance
consultant to assist in its investigation of the workers compensation reserves.
Due to the complexity of calculating the reserves required at the various dates
and the difficulty of estimating the reserve amount in each case, additional
time was needed to ensure a complete investigation and this factor caused the
Company to not be in position to file its periodic reports with the SEC on a
timely basis.
The Company discovered issues with workers' compensation claims for injuries
dating back to 1990. The special investigation revealed that Company personnel
with responsibility for setting reserves did so in an aggressive manner which
caused the third-party administrator adjusters to recommend reserves at levels
lower than they would have otherwise recommended. Personnel also employed a
practice known as stair-stepping reserves for certain claims. This involves
recording reserves initially at an amount lower than the amount the claim would
be expected to settle for and increasing the reserve over time. In addition,
several Florida claims that had existed for an extended period of time had
reserves which had been set artificially low and then increased periodically to
reflect on-going payments to claimants. The accrual of these amounts in the
period that claims were incurred resulted in a charge to retained earnings for
periods prior to October 31, 2001 and a reversal of reserves in subsequent years
to reflect amounts that should already have been recorded.
On May 12, 2005, the Company announced that its Audit Committee had recommended
revised procedures for establishing workers' compensation reserves. Revised
procedures were put in place to help ensure reserve recommendations made by the
third party administrator ("TPA") are recorded. Procedures also prohibit
inappropriate influence by management in the determination of the TPA's
recommended reserve amounts. The revised procedures require increased accounting
oversight to help insure reserves are recorded in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. The Board of Directors approved the
recommendation.
(10) Other Matters
The delay in providing audited financial statements for the year ending October
31, 2004 would have constituted a covenant violation pursuant to the Company's
Loan and Security Agreement. The Company obtained a waiver from its lender
regarding this event. The delay in providing the audited financial statements
also resulted in non-compliance under other debt agreements, although the non-
12
compliance did not result in an event of default. The Company has not received
any default notifications. Management believes all default conditions have now
been remedied and the Company is in compliance with its covenants under its
lending agreements.
On February 22, 2005, the Company announced that it received notice of a
determination by NASDAQ's Listing Qualifications Staff that it failed to comply
with NASDAQ listing standards set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14)
due to the delayed filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of its
annual report on Form 10-K for the period ended October 31, 2004, and that its
common stock would therefore be subject to delisting from the NASDAQ National
Market. On May 16, the common stock of the Company was delisted from the NASDAQ
National Market due to the delay in filing its annual report on Form 10-K.
On May 13, 2005, the Company's Mid Bus subsidiary completed the purchase of its
Bluffton, Ohio manufacturing facility for a purchase price of $2,000,000. This
property was leased prior to being purchased with financing through the
Company's lead bank. In addition to the purchase price, the Company agreed to
purchase up to $1,000,000 of parts or products over the next five years from an
affiliate of the seller. Certain penalties are imposed on the Company if it is
unable or unwilling to meet this purchase commitment.
On March 21, 2005, the Company reported that the Executive Vice President -
Operations, Terry L. Clark, and Chief Financial Officer, Larry Sayre, retired
effective March 18, 2005. April 1, 2005, Randall Swift became Vice President and
Chief Operating Officer of the Company. On May 23, 2005, Cletus Glasener became
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. A charge to income
totaling approximately $1.1 million was recorded in the second quarter of fiscal
year 2005. This amount represents the estimated severance obligation of the two
executives who retired.

OVERVIEW
Collins Industries, Inc. is a manufacturer of specialty vehicles and has three
reportable segments: ambulances, buses and terminal trucks/road construction
equipment. The ambulance segment produces modular and van type ambulances for
sale to hospitals, ambulance services, fire departments and other governmental
agencies. The bus segment produces small school buses, commercial buses and
shuttle buses for sale to schools, hotel shuttle services, airports, and other
governmental agencies. The terminal trucks/road construction equipment segment
produces off-road trucks designed to move trailers and containers for
warehouses, truck terminals, rail yards, rail terminals and shipping ports and
produces a line of road construction equipment. Each of the Company's product
groups is responsible for its own marketing activities and maintains independent
relationships with dealers and distributors.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies of the "Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements" in the Company's 2004 Form 10-K. The Company evaluates
performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes not
including nonrecurring gains and losses.
14
The Company accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales or
transfers were to third parties, with all intercompany sales eliminated in
consolidation.
The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
different products and services. They are managed separately because each
business requires different technology and marketing strategies.
The Company posted a 46% increase in its sales backlog at January 31, 2005 to
$70.9 million compared to $48.5 million at January 31, 2004. The backlog at
October 31, 2004 was $68.5 million. The increased backlog at January 31, 2005
principally resulted from new orders in all product lines.
See "Segment Information" (Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) for
quantitative segment information.
Consolidated sales for the quarter ended January 31, 2005 increased 25% to $51.5
million compared to $41.1 million for the same period last year. This increase
was principally led by a 33% improvement in sales from terminal truck/road
construction products and increases in sales of bus and ambulance products of
41% and 12% respectively.
The Company posted a consolidated net loss of $0.7 million ($.12 per share -
diluted) for the quarter ended January 31, 2005 compared to a net profit of
$0.03 million ($.01 per share - diluted) for the same period last year. The net
loss for the quarter ended January 31, 2005 principally resulted from higher raw
material costs and lower profit contributions from sales of ambulance products
coupled with higher interest costs from increased borrowing for inventory and
increases in the prime lending rate. Additionally the Company recorded a net
gain of approximately $0.2 million from the sale of properties in the first
quarter of fiscal 2004.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AMBULANCE SEGMENT
For the three months ended Janaury 31, 2005, the ambulance segment sales were
$20.2 million or 39.2% of the Company's consolidated sales compared to $18.1
million or 44.0% for the same period in fiscal 2005. Unit volume sales of
ambulance products increased 6.4% for the three months ended January 31, 2005
compared to the same period in 2004. This increase was principally due to
increased unit sales to governmental agencies. Ambulance products unit average
selling price increased 4.9% in the three months ended January 31, 2005 compared
to the same period in fiscal 2004 principally as a result of increased chassis
sales.
For the three months ended January 31, 2005, ambulance segment gross profit
decreased 44.6% and selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
3.7% compared to the same period last year. Substantially all of the decrease in
gross profit was a result of raw material cost increases absorbed on units
before sales price increases were initiated. The ambulance segment reported a
pretax loss of the $0.6 million for the three months ended January 31, 2005,
compared to a pretax profit of $0.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2004.
This loss principally resulted from raw material cost increases discussed above.
15
BUS SEGMENT
For the three months ended January 31, 2005, bus segment sales were $12.7
million or 24.6% of the Company's consolidated sales compared to $9.0 million or
22.0% for the same period last year. Unit volume sales of bus products increased
by 33.2% for the three months ended January 31, 2005 compared to the same period
in fiscal 2004. This increase was principally due to increased sales to child
care providers and contractors. The average unit price of bus products increased
by 5.5% in the three months ended January 31, 2005 compared to the same period
in fiscal 2004. Substantially all of this unit price increase resulted from
chassis costs.
For the three months ended January 31, 2005, bus segment gross profit increased
176% and selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 7.4% compared
to the same period last year. These increases were principally a result of the
sales volume increases as described above. The pretax loss of the bus segment
decreased to $.04 million for the three months ended January 31, 2005 compared
to $.46 million in the same period last year. The pretax loss decreased
principally as a result of the sales volume increases discussed above and was
partially offset by higher interest costs.
TERMINAL TRUCK/ROAD CONSTRUCTION SEGMENT
For the three months ended January 31, 2005, terminal truck/road construction
segment sales were $18.7 million or 36.2% of the Company's consolidated sales
compared to $14.0 million or 34.1% for same period last year. Unit volume sales
of terminal truck/road construction products increased by 27.0% for the three
months ended January 31, 2005 compared to the same period in fiscal 2004. This
increase was principally due to the impact of additional export sales associated
with foreign stevedoring operations and higher domestic sales to intermodal and
warehousing customers. Additionally, the rebound in road sweeper sales continued
in the domestic market. The average unit price of terminal truck/road
construction products increased by 4.8% in the three months ended January 31,
2005 compared to the same period in fiscal 2004. Substantially all of this
increase related to general price increases to offset higher engine and
transmission costs.
For the three months ended January 31, 2005, terminal truck/road construction
segment gross profit increased 1.6% and selling, general and administrative
expenses increased by 7.9% compared to the same period last year. These
increases were principally a result of higher sales volumes described above. The
pretax income of the terminal truck/road construction segment decreased to $.44
million for the three months ended January 31, 2004 compared to $.48 million in
the same period last year. The pretax income of the terminal truck/road
construction segment decreased principally as a result of raw material cost
increases absorbed on units before sales price increases were initiated and
higher interest costs.
OTHER
Interest expense for the three months ended January 31, 2005 increased to $.42
million compared to $.37 million in the same period last year. This increase was
principally a result of an overall increase of the Company's average borrowings
throughout most of the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and increases in interest
rates.
16
Other income for the three months ended January 31, 2004 was $.32 million. Of
this amount, $.30 million resulted from a nonrecurring gain from the sale of a
building and land.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company used existing credit lines, proceeds from Industrial Revenue Bonds,
internally generated funds and supplier financing to fund its operations and
capital expenditures for the three months ended January 31, 2005.
Cash used in operations was $3.0 million for the three months ended January 31,
2005, compared to $9.4 million for the same period last year. Cash was used in
operations principally to fund increases in inventories and decreases to
accounts payable and accrued expenses of $4.8 and $.9 million, respectively.
These reductions were partially offset by improved cash flows through a decrease
in accounts receivable and prepaid and other current assets of $1.5 and $1.0
million respectively.
Cash used by investing activities was $.7 million for the three months ended
January 31, 2005 compared to cash provided in investing activities of $.2
million for the same period last year. The increase in cash used by investing
activities was principally due to the higher capital expenditures for the three
months ended January 31, 2005.
Cash flow provided by financing activities was $3.8 million for the three months
ended January 31, 2005 compared to $9.3 million for the same period last year.
This change principally resulted from increased borrowings in fiscal 2004 to
finance the repurchase of the 1,050,879 shares of the Company's common stock in
a modified Dutch auction tender offer ($5.1 million) and to finance a special
purchase ($13.5 million) of certain inventory from a key supplier which carried
a special, one-time purchase discount.
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce exposure to its
variable-rate debt. On July 5, 2002, the Company entered into a $6.8 million
declining balance interest rate swap agreement to limit the effect of increases
in the interest rates on its floating rate term debt through May 2005. The
effect of this agreement was to convert underlying variable-rate debt based on
LIBOR to fixed rate debt with an interest rate between 4.42% and 4.65% plus a
margin of 175 basis points. This agreement reduced the Company's risk with
respect to variable-rate debt. At January 31, 2005, the fair value of this debt
was $4.3 million, net of the fair value of the swap of $10,000 (loss). This debt
is reflected as a liability within long-term debt and capitalized leases.
The Company believes that its cash flows from operations, its credit facility
with its lead bank and unused funds restricted for future capital expenditures
will be sufficient to satisfy its future working capital needs, capital
expenditure requirements and anticipated dividends. The total amount of unused
revolving credit available to the Company was $7.8 million at January 31, 2005.
The credit facility is collateralized by receivables, inventories, equipment and
certain real property. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company is required
to maintain certain financial ratios and other financial conditions. The
Agreement also prohibits the Company from
17
incurring certain additional indebtedness, limits certain investments, advances
or loans and restricts substantial asset sales and capital expenditures. The
delay in providing audited financial statements for the year ending October 31,
2004 would have constituted a covenant violation pursuant to the Agreement. The
Company obtained a waiver from its lender regarding this event. The delay in
providing the audited financial statements also resulted in non-compliance under
other debt agreements, although the non-compliance did not result in an event of
default. The Company has not received any default notifications. Management
believes all default conditions have now been remedied and the Company is in
compliance with its covenants under its lending agreements.
It is customary practice for companies in the specialty vehicle industry to
enter into repurchase agreements with financing institutions to provide floor
plan financing for dealers. In the event of a dealer default, these agreements
generally require the repurchase of products at the original invoice price net
of certain adjustments. The risk of loss under the agreements is limited to the
risk that market prices for these products may decline between the time of
delivery to the dealer and time of repurchase and resale by the Company. The
risk is spread over numerous dealers and the Company has not incurred
significant losses under these agreements. In the opinion of management, any
future losses under these agreements will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company's
repurchase obligation under these agreements is limited to vehicles which are in
new condition and as to which the dealer still holds title. The Company's
contingent obligation under such agreements was approximately $0.9 million at
January 31, 2005.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND ESTIMATES
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation
of these financial statements requires the use of estimates, judgments, and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the periods presented. We believe that of our critical
accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgments,
estimates, and complexity:
Inventories
The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or market. The Company
has chosen the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method for valuing its
inventories. The effect of the FIFO method is to value ending inventories on the
balance sheet at their approximate current or most recent cost. The market
values for finished goods inventories are determined based on recent selling
prices.
Goodwill and Other Assets
In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets" (SFAS No. 142). SFAS No. 142 was effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2002. Goodwill is no longer amortized over future periods,
but will be assessed for impairment at least annually using a fair value test.
The Company adopted this new standard on November 1, 2002.
18
As of October 31, 2004, the Company tested for impairment of the bus and
terminal truck/road construction business segments using the discounted cash
flow approach and determined that the fair values for each of these segments
exceeded the related carrying values. On an on-going basis, and absent any
impairment indicators, the Company will annually conduct similar tests and
record any impairment loss. Management believes that the estimates of future
cash flows and fair values are reasonable; however, changes in estimates of such
cash flows and fair value could affect the evaluations.
Insurance Reserves
The Company failed to adequately provide for estimated future workers
compensation costs related to certain claims that have been denied by the
Company's excess liability insurance carrier and for certain other claims. When
management discovered the error, an independent third party administrator was
retained to estimate and determine the additional potential liability related to
these claims. The Company is currently disputing the denial of coverage by the
excess liability insurance carrier, but the amount of future recovery, if any,
can not be assured.
Generally, the Company is self-insured for workers' compensation for certain
subsidiaries and for all group medical insurance. Under these plans, liabilities
are recognized for claims incurred (including claims incurred but not reported)
and changes in the case reserves. At the time a worker's compensation claim is
filed, a liability is estimated to settle the claim. The liability for workers'
compensation claims is determined based on management's estimates of the nature
and severity of the claims and based on analysis provided by third party
administrators and by various state statutes and reserve requirements. Because
the liability is an estimate, the ultimate liability may be more or less than
reported. If previously established accruals are required to be adjusted, such
amounts are included in cost of sales. Group medical reserves are funded through
a trust and are estimated using historical claims' experience.
Due to the nature of the Company's products, the Company is subject to product
liability claims in the normal course of business. To the extent permitted under
applicable law, the Company maintains insurance to reduce or eliminate risk to
the Company. This insurance coverage includes self-insured retentions that vary
each year. The Company maintains excess liability insurance with outside
insurance carriers to minimize its risks related to catastrophic claims in
excess of all self-insured positions. Any material change in the aforementioned
factors could have an adverse impact on our operating results.
Warranties
The Company's products generally carry explicit product warranties that extend
from several months to more than a year, based on terms that are generally
accepted in the marketplace. Certain components included in the Company's end
products (such as chassis, engines, axles, transmissions, tires, etc.) may
include warranties from original equipment manufacturers (OEM). These OEM
warranties are generally passed on to the end customer of the Company's products
and the customer generally deals directly with the applicable component
manufacturer. The Company records provisions for estimated warranty and other
related costs at the time of sale based on historical warranty loss experience
and periodically adjusts these provisions to reflect actual experience. Certain
warranty and other related claims involve matters of dispute that
19
ultimately are resolved by negotiation, arbitration or litigation. Infrequently,
a material warranty issue may arise which is beyond the scope of the Company's
historical experience. The Company provides for any such warranty issues as they
become known and estimable. It is reasonably possible that from time to time
additional warranty and other related claims could arise from disputes or other
matters beyond the scope of the Company's historical experience.
Revenue Recognition
The Company records vehicle sales and passes title to the customer, at the
earlier of completion of the vehicle and receipt of full payment or shipment or
delivery to the customer as specified by the customer purchase order. Customer
deposits for partial payment of vehicles are deferred and treated as current
liabilities until the vehicle is completed and recognized as revenue.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In November 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 151, "Inventory Costs: an
amendment of ARB No. 43". FASB No. 151 will no longer permit companies to
capitalize inventory costs on their balance sheets when the production defect
rate varies significantly from the expected rate. The statement also clarifies
that fixed overhead should be allocated to inventory based on "normal capacity".
The statement is effective for the Company beginning on November 1, 2005. The
Company is unable to estimate the financial statement impact of this statement
at this time.
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Interpretation 46R (FIN 46R), a revision to Interpretation 46 (FIN 46),
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46R clarifies some of the
provisions of FIN 46 and exempts certain entities from its requirements. FIN 46R
is effective at the end of the first interim period ending after March 15, 2004.
Entities that have adopted FIN 46 prior to this effective date can continue to
apply the provisions of FIN 46 until the effective date of FIN 46R or elect
early adoption of FIN 46R. The adoption of FIN 46 and FIN 46R did not have a
significant impact on our financial statements.
FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, was revised in
December 2004 ("Revised Statement"). The Revised Statement also supersedes APB
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related
implementation guidance. The Revised Statement establishes standards for the
accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments
for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs
liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value
of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of
those equity instruments. For the Company, the Revised Statement is effective
November 1, 2005. The adoption of this Revised Statement is not expected to have
a material impact on our financial statements.
20
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE
RESULTS
This report and other written reports and oral statements made from time to time
by the Company may contain so-called "forward-looking statements" about the
business, financial condition and prospects of the Company, all of which are
subject to risks and uncertainties. One can identify these forward-looking
statements by the use of words such as "expects", "plans", "will", "estimates",
"forecasts", "projects", and other words of similar meaning. One can also
identify them by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or
current facts. One should understand that it is not possible to predict or
identify all factors, which involve risks and uncertainties. Consequently, the
reader should not consider any such list or listing to be a complete statement
of all potential risks or uncertainties.
The forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company believes
the assumptions underlying these forward-looking statements are reasonable;
however, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, actual
results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements due to certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited
to, changes in funds budgeted by Federal, state and local governments, changes
in product demand, the availability and price of key raw materials, components
and chassis, various inventory risks due to changes in market conditions,
changes in competition, substantial dependence on third parties for product
quality, interest rate fluctuations, adequate direct labor pools, development of
new products, changes in tax and other governmental rules and regulations
applicable to the Company, reliability and timely fulfillment of orders and
other risks as indicated in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release
any revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect
events or circumstances occurring after the date released or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events.
The Company does not assume the obligation to update any forward-looking
statement. One should carefully evaluate such statements in light of factors
described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
especially on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K (if any).
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no material change in this disclosure.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
For the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management,
including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a - 15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") are not effective to
ensure that
21
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 required time periods. There are inherent limitations to the
effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Even
effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable
assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this quarterly report are certifications
of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required in
accordance with Rule 13a-14(a) of the Exchange Act. This portion of the
Company's report includes the information concerning the controls evaluation
referred to in the certifications and should be read in conjunction with the
certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Except as described below, there were no changes in the Company's internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during the last quarter that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company's internal control over financial reporting. During their year-end
review, KPMG LLP (KPMG), the Company's independent accountants, identified and
reported to management and the Audit Committee two material weaknesses under
standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant
deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented
or detected. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of
control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Company's ability to initiate,
authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is a
more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the company's annual or
interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be
prevented or detected.
22
The material weaknesses were identified as:
(1) Control Policies and Procedures
The Company did not have effective policies and procedures regarding management
override of controls, and it did not have effective policies and procedures
implementing its Code of Conduct. As a result, it did not maintain a control
environment that promoted open and candid communication. In some instances,
certain officers and personnel did not communicate critical information needed
to properly record transactions. These deficiencies result in more than a remote
likelihood that a material misstatement of interim or annual financial
statements could occur and not be detected.
(2) Workers' Compensation Reserves
The Company had inadequate controls in place to record worker's compensation
reserves in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Specifically, it did not have appropriate policies and procedures to ensure the
estimates provided by an independent insurance advisor, which was utilized to
assist in estimating workers' compensation reserves were appropriate. As a
result, workers compensation reserves were materially misstated in previously
filed consolidated financial statements. Historical consolidated financial
statements have been restated to correct these errors.
23
The Company has taken steps to correct the material weaknesses identified and
will continue to evaluate the material weaknesses and will take all necessary
action to correct the internal control deficiencies identified. The Company will
also further develop and enhance its internal control policies, procedures,
systems and staff to allow it to mitigate the risk that material accounting
errors might go undetected and be included in its consolidated financial
statements.
The Company contemplates undertaking a thorough review of its internal controls
as part of the Company's preparation for compliance with the requirements under
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Company is using this
review to further assist in identifying and correcting control deficiencies. At
this time, the Company has not completed its review of the existing controls and
their effectiveness. Unless and until the material weaknesses described above,
or any identified during this review, are completely remedied, evaluated and
tested, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to assert that
its internal control over financial reporting is effective, pursuant to the
rules adopted by the SEC under Section 404, when those rules take effect.
