Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) | Financial Statements and Organization |
The consolidated financial statements include DMI Furniture, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, DMI Management, Inc. (“Company”). The financial statements included herein at March 1, 2003 and for the three and six months ended March 1, 2003 and March 2, 2002 are unaudited but include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial position for the periods covered herein. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily an indication of the results to be expected for the full 2003 fiscal year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.
The specific useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are as follows:
Building and Leasehold Improvements | 8 — 35 yrs. | |
Machinery and Equipment | 3 — 15 yrs. |
For the six months ended March 1, 2003, comprehensive income is approximately $63,000 less than net income. For the six months ended March 2, 2002, comprehensive income is approximately $123,000 less than net income. The differences between net income and comprehensive income are due to fluctuations in the fair market value of the Company’s derivative instruments pursuant to SFAS 133 (see note 7).

Total | $ | 25,174 | $ | 17,477 | ||||
(5) | Long Term Debt |
The Company’s bank financing agreement contains restrictive covenants that require the Company, among other things, to maintain a minimum tangible net worth; a fixed charge ratio; a certain ratio of funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); and a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth, as defined in the bank financing arrangements. As of March 1, 2003 the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
On November 22, 2002, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with Bank One, NA and Fifth Third Bank, Kentucky, Inc. The new agreement extended the due date of the revolving master credit agreement through December 31, 2004, increased borrowing capacity to meet working capital needs, and provides financing to fund the 1993 and 1994 economic development bonds, due in October 2003 and May 2004 respectively.
On January 24, 2003, the Company amended its credit agreement to remove the seasonal adjustment to the revolving note payable and increases its import letter of credit facility. The maximum availability under the revolving master note payable is $26,000,000 through December 31, 2004.
(6) | Major Customers and Sources of Supply |
The Company’s customers include large furniture chain store retailers, wholesale clubs, catalog retailers, and independent distributors, as well as numerous smaller retailers. The Company’s five largest customers accounted for approximately 29% and 33% of the Company’s total sales for the three and six months ended March 1, 2003, as compared to 31% of total sales for the three and six months ended March 2, 2002. One customer accounted for approximately 10% and 13% of the Company’s total sales for the three and six months ended March 1, 2003, as compared to 13% and 16% of total sales for the three and six months ended March 2, 2002. The loss of one or more of the largest five customers could have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company. As
11
Table of Contents
of March 1, 2003, one customer accounted for approximately 12% of total accounts receivable, as compared to 10% of accounts receivable as of March 2, 2002.
For the six months ended March 1, 2003, approximately 80% of the Company’s total sales were of imported product. For the six months ended March 2, 2002, approximately 69% of the Company’s total sales were of imported product. The Company sources these products from various factories in Asia both directly and through agents, utilizing primarily Company developed designs. The Company maintains showrooms, production offices and quality control organizations in China and Thailand. An unanticipated interruption in the flow of products from one or more of these factories could have a short-term material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.
(7) | Derivative & Hedging Activities |
The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to hedge against adverse changes in interest rates relative to the Company’s variable rate debt. The notional principal amounts of the outstanding interest rates swaps were approximately $13.9 million at March 1, 2003. The interest rate swaps are not utilized to take speculative positions. The Board of Directors established the Company’s policies with regards to activities involving derivative instruments. Management, along with the Board of Directors, periodically reviews those policies, along with the actual derivative related results.
The Company recorded the fair market value of its interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges on its balance sheet and has marked them to fair value through other comprehensive income. The fair values of the swaps are approximately ($687,000) as of March 1, 2003 and are reflected as other long-term liabilities on the accompanying balance sheet.
(8) | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The book values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s debt instruments approximated the book value because substantial portions of the underlying instruments are variable rate notes that re-price frequently.

Preliminary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The information set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and in the other portions of this report includes forward-looking statements about the Corporation and its business as of April 10, 2003. The forward-looking statements relate to overall business conditions during the next fiscal quarter that ends on May 31, 2003. For this purpose, the use of words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These “forward-looking statements” reflect the Company’s current expectations regarding operating and financial performance and are based upon data available at the time of the statements. Actual results could differ materially from the Company’s expectations due to the risks and uncertainties specific to the DMI Furniture, Inc., the markets we service and the overall health of the economy.
Risks and uncertainties specific to DMI Furniture, Inc. and the markets we service include the cyclical and seasonal nature of the furniture market; changes in fashion or tastes that adversely affect consumer perception of the Company’s furniture products; merchandising decisions by one or more of the Company’s major customers that adversely affect the dollar volume of their purchases of the Company’s products; competition from other furniture manufacturers and distributors, many of which have substantially greater sales and economic resources.
The Company also faces risks associated with events that adversely affect the availability and cost of materials and labor to manufacture and source the Company’s products, interrupt the flow of product from one of the Company’s off-shore manufacturing sources, restrict the availability and terms of financing options, or affect the volatility of actuarially determined amounts and related loss estimates relating to pension liabilities.
Other general risks include the overall health of the US economy; political or economic instability in markets from which we source our products, new legislation and governmental regulation, or any adverse economic or operating disruptions from a terrorist attack, war or risk of war.
Other factors that could adversely affect the results of operations are identified in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations below, in “Item 1. Business,” and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” of the Company’s FY 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements included in this report speak only as of the date on which they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any of its forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date on which such statement is made.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Application of Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Judgments
DMI Furniture Inc.’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management evaluates its estimates and judgments including those related to revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation allowances, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, derivative contracts, pension benefits and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity.
Allowances for doubtful accounts—The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that might result from its customers failing to make required payments. The Company bases its allowances on assumptions about the likelihood of recovery of accounts receivable based on past experience and current collection trends. If economic or specific industry trends deteriorate such that the Company’s estimates no longer reflect reasonable expectations, the Company would increase its allowance for doubtful accounts by recording additional expense.
Pension benefits—The amounts recognized in the financial statements related to pension benefits are determined on actuarial assumptions, the calculation of which requires many assumptions. A significant assumption used in determining the Company’s net pension cost is the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. Based on input from the Company’s actuarial firm, the Company assumed an expected long-term rate of return on plan assets of 8.25% for fiscal 2002 and 2001. Another significant estimate that affects the Company’s pension cost is the discount rate used in the annual actuarial valuation of pension benefit. The discount rate represents the interest rate that is used to determine the present value of future cash flows required to settle the pension obligations. Based on input from the Company’s actuarial firm, the Company assumed a discount rate of 7% in fiscal 2002 and 2001. To the extent the assumed discount rate decreases the Company would have to record additional expense.
Income taxes—The Company records deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities. If enacted tax rates change, the Company would adjust its deferred tax assets and liabilities through the provision for income taxes. The Company evaluates the need for a valuation allowance of its deferred tax assets based on the likelihood of expected future benefits. The Company does not believe a valuation
14
Table of Contents
allowance is necessary; however, if the expected level of future taxable income changes or certain tax planning strategies become unavailable, the Company would record a valuation allowance through income tax expense in the period the valuation allowance is deemed necessary.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The Company’s revenue and profitability increased significantly during the second quarter of fiscal 2003 in comparison to the second quarter of fiscal 2002 due to continued strong performances at the Company’s Wynwood and Home Styles divisions. The Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 1, 2003 increased approximately 35% over the three months ended March 2, 2002. As a result of the increased volume the Company’s net income for the three months ended March 1, 2003 was $748,000 or $0.17 cents per share versus $67,000 or $0.02 cents per share for the three months ended March 2, 2002.
The Company’s expects the operating environment in the third quarter to be difficult due to decline in consumer confidence over the last couple of months, the general softness throughout the economy and the war in the Middle East. Accordingly, the Company expects to experience a significant decline in both revenue and operating results for the third fiscal quarter as compared to the third fiscal quarter of fiscal 2002.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company may incur a charge to other comprehensive income if a reduction in the discount rate used in determining the Company’s pension benefit obligations occurs. Due to the many factors involved in the actuarial calculation, the Company cannot quantify the impact the change in rate would have on its estimated pension plan liability.
On February 1, 2003 a new six-year contract between the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) that expired on July 1, 2002 became effective. A majority of the Company’s imported merchandise flows through Pacific coast ports of entry and during the first quarter the ports were closed for 10 days due to a breakdown in contract negations between management and labor. The port closings had a minimal impact on the revenues and resulted in a slight increase in freight costs during the Company’s first quarter.

Revenue – The Company’s revenues increased $7.8 million or 35% during the three months ended March 1, 2003 when compared to the three months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in revenues during the quarter was the result of continued strong performances by the Company’s Wynwood and Home Styles divisions. Revenues for the three months ended March 1, 2003 at the Wynwood and Homes Styles divisions

increased approximately 54% and 27%, respectively over the prior year’s second quarter. The increase in revenues at the Wynwood and Home Styles divisions are the result of a broadening distribution base and the successful introduction of several products over the past few quarters. The Company’s Commercial Office division increased revenue 5% over the prior year’s second quarter.
Net sales for the six months ended March 1, 2003 increased approximately $8.5 million dollars or 18% when compared to the six months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in sales for the six months ended March 1, 2003 was the result of the strong performances by the Company’s Wynwood and Home Styles divisions. Sales at the Company’s Wynwood and Home Styles divisions were up 34% and 23%, respectively over the comparable period from a year ago. Reduced U.S. business spending and the availability of high quality used office furniture due to corporate downsizing have hurt the Company’s Commercial Office division. Sales from the Commercial Office division were down 3.3% for the six months ended March 1, 2003 when compared to the six months ended March 2, 2002. Included in revenue for the six months ended March 2, 2002, was $1.8 million of promotional bedroom sales, which ended when the Company discontinued manufacturing these products during the first quarter of fiscal 2002.
Gross Margin — The Company’s gross margin in the three months ended March 1, 2003 was approximately $5.3 million or 17.7% compared to $3.7 million or 16.8% for the three months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in gross margin dollars was the result of increased volume offsetting operating inefficiencies at the Company’s domestic manufacturing plants. The operating inefficiencies are expected to continue due to the continued softness in the markets for commercial office furniture.
The Company’s gross margin for the six months ended March 1, 2003 was $9.6 million or 17.1% compared to $8.1 million or 17% for the six months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in gross margin dollars was primarily the result of increased sales volumes offsetting operating inefficiencies at the Company’s domestic manufacturing plants and slightly higher freight costs during the first quarter due to the temporary disruption in the flow of products following the port closings on the west coast.
Selling, General and Administrative (S,G&A) Expense — For the three months ended March 1, 2003, S,G&A expense totaled $3.7 million or 12.2% of sales compared to $3.2 million or 14.5% of sales for the three months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in S,G&A expenses was the result of increased commissions and royalties due to the higher overall sales volume. The decline in S,G & A expense as a percent of sales is due to the relatively fixed nature of the majority of S,G &A expenses.
For the six months ended, March 1, 2003, S,G&A expenses were $6.9 million or 12.2% of sales compared to $6.6 million or 13.9% of sales for the six months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in S,G&A expenses was the result of increased commission and royalties due to the higher sales levels, partially offset by cost containment initiatives.

Operating Profit – For the three months ended March 1, 2003, operating profit was $1,653,000 or 5.5% of sales compared to $501,000 or 2.3% of sales for the three months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in operating profit was the result of the factors discussed above.
For the six months ended March 1, 2003, operating profit was $2,702,000 or 4.8% of sales compared to $1,464,000 or 3.1% of sales for the six months ended March 2, 2002. The increase in operating profit was the result of the factors discussed above.
Interest Expense — For the three months ended March 1, 2003, interest expense was $486,000 compared to $378,000 for the three months ended March 1, 2002. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of higher overall debt levels to fund working capital required to support a higher volume of sales.
For the six months ended March 1, 2003, interest expense was $895,000 compared to $803,000 for the six months ended March 1, 2002. The increase in interest expense was primarily the result of higher overall debt levels during the second quarter to fund working capital required to support a higher volume of sales.
During the second quarter, the Company received notification that its actuarial firm had revised the presentation of the Company’s minimum pension liability as of August 31, 2002. This caused the Company to reclassify $396,000 from other assets to other comprehensive income, net of tax, during the second quarter.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Demands for funds relate to payments for materials and other operating costs, debt obligations, and capital expenditures. The Company’s ability to generate cash adequate to meet short and long-term needs depends on the collection of accounts receivable and its ability to borrow funds. The Company’s days sales outstanding of accounts receivable averaged 56 days for the first six months of fiscal 2003 and 63 days for the first six months of fiscal 2002. The decrease in day’s sales outstanding resulted from the Company offering fewer sales promotions with extended payment terms. The Company’s inventory turnover averaged 4.0 for the six months ended March 1, 2003 compared to 3.6 for the first six months of fiscal 2002. The increase average inventory turnover for the current year was primarily the result of the increased sales volume and the elimination of obsolete inventory relating to the Company’s Dolly Madison Bedroom division. The overall increase in inventory levels is primarily due to the introduction of new furniture groups and additional inventory to support the increased sales levels.

As of March 31, 2003 the Company had $4.0 million available on the revolving credit facility.

As of March 1, 2003 the Company was in compliance with all banking covenants.

The Company does not believe any events are probable which would materially change its present liquidity position, which is adequate to satisfy known demands for funds for operations and to pay bank and other debt.
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and Statement No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement obligations”. In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13 and Technical Corrections.” In June 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” Adoption of these statements on September 1, 2002 did not have an effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation —Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this statement will have a significant effect on its results of operations or financial position. In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” The Company has not determined whether the adoption of these interpretations will have a significant effect on its results of operations or financial position.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company’s primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is changes in interest rates. At March 1, 2003, a hypothetical 100 basis points increase in short term interest rates would decrease annual pre tax earnings by approximately $124,000, assuming no change in the volume or composition of debt at March 1, 2003. The Company has effectively fixed the interest rates on approximately $13.9 million of its long-term debt through the use of interest rate swaps, and the above estimated earnings reduction takes these swaps into account. As of March 1, 2003 the fair value of these swaps is a liability of approximately $687,000. (See Note 7)
