DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES [Abstract] | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
2 | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | ||||||||||||||||||
We are exposed to certain market risks relating to our ongoing business operations, including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. We manage our exposure to these and other market risks through regular operating and financing activities. Currently, the only risk that we manage through the use of derivative instruments is foreign currency risk for which we enter into derivative instruments in the form of foreign currency forward exchange contracts with a major financial institution. | |||||||||||||||||||
These forward exchange contracts are entered into to reduce the potential effects of foreign exchange rate movements on our net equity investment in one of our foreign subsidiaries, to reduce the impact on gross profit and net earnings from sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies, and to reduce the impact on our net earnings of foreign currency fluctuations on receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies which are different than the subsidiaries functional currency. We are primarily exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk with respect to transactions and net assets denominated in Euros, Pounds Sterling, Canadian Dollars, South African Rand, Singapore Dollars, Indian Rupee, Chinese Yuan, South Korean Won, Polish Zloty, and New Taiwan Dollars. We record all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities at fair value. | |||||||||||||||||||
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts periodically to hedge certain forecasted inter-company sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies (the Pound Sterling, Euro and New Taiwan Dollar). The purpose of these instruments is to mitigate the risk that the U.S. Dollar net cash inflows and outflows resulting from sales and purchases denominated in foreign currencies will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. These forward contracts have been designated as cash flow hedge instruments, and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value in Derivative assets and Derivative liabilities. The effective portion of the gains and losses resulting from the changes in the fair value of these hedge contracts are deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized as an adjustment to Cost of sales and service in the period that the corresponding inventory that is the subject of the related hedge contract is sold, thereby providing an offsetting economic impact against the corresponding change in the U.S. Dollar value of the inter-company sale or purchase being hedged. The ineffective portion of gains and losses resulting from the changes in the fair value of these hedge contracts is reported in Other (income) expense, net, immediately. We perform quarterly assessments of hedge effectiveness by verifying and documenting the critical terms of the hedge instrument and determining that forecasted transactions have not changed significantly. We also assess on a quarterly basis whether there have been adverse developments regarding the risk of a counterparty default. | |||||||||||||||||||
We had forward contracts outstanding as of April 30, 2014, denominated in Euros, Pounds Sterling and New Taiwan Dollars with set maturity dates ranging from May 2014 through April 2015. The contract amounts, expressed at forward rates in U.S. Dollars at April 30, 2014, were $33.3 million for Euros, $11.2 million for Pounds Sterling and $22.2 million for New Taiwanese Dollars. At April 30, 2014, we had approximately $1.7 million of losses, net of tax, related to cash flow hedges deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. Included in this amount are $933,000 of unrealized losses, net of tax, related to cash flow hedge instruments that remain subject to currency fluctuation risk. The majority of these deferred losses will be recorded as an adjustment to Cost of sales and service in periods through April 2015, when the corresponding inventory that is the subject of the related hedge contracts is sold, as described above. | |||||||||||||||||||
We are also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to our investment in net assets in foreign countries. To manage this risk, we have maintained a forward contract with a notional amount of €3.0 million. We designated this forward contract as a hedge of our net investment in Euro denominated assets. We selected the forward method under Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, guidance related to the accounting for derivatives instruments and hedging activities. The forward method requires all changes in the fair value of the contract to be reported as a cumulative translation adjustment in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, in the same manner as the underlying hedged net assets. This forward contract matures in November 2014. At April 30, 2014, we had $238,000 of realized gains and $65,000 of unrealized losses, net of tax, recorded as cumulative translation adjustments in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these forward contracts. | |||||||||||||||||||
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
We also enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to protect against the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. These derivative instruments are not designated as hedges under the FASB guidance and, as a result, changes in their fair value are reported currently as Other expense, net, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations consistent with the transaction gain or loss on the related receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies. | |||||||||||||||||||
We had forward contracts outstanding as of April 30, 2014, in Euros, Pounds Sterling, Canadian Dollars, the South African Rand, and the New Taiwan Dollar with set maturity dates ranging from May 2014 through October 2014. The contract amounts at forward rates in U.S. Dollars at April 30, 2014 totaled $51.4 million. | |||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Derivative Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
We recognize the fair value of derivative instruments as assets and liabilities on a gross basis on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013, all derivative instruments were recorded at fair value on the balance sheets as follows (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||||

EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN | ' | ||||||||
3 | EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN | ||||||||
In March 2008, we adopted the Hurco Companies, Inc. 2008 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2008 Plan, which allows us to grant awards of stock options, Stock Appreciation Rights settled in stock (SARs), restricted shares, performance shares and performance units. The 2008 Plan replaced the 1997 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, which expired in March 2007. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has authority to determine the officers, directors and key employees who will be granted awards; designate the number of shares subject to each award; determine the terms and conditions upon which awards will be granted; and prescribe the form and terms of award agreements. We have granted stock options under both plans which are currently outstanding and restricted shares under the 2008 Plan which are outstanding. No stock option may be exercised more than ten years after the date of grant or such shorter period as the Compensation Committee may determine at the date of grant. The total number of shares of our common stock that may be issued as awards under the 2008 Plan is 750,000. The market value of a share of our common stock, for purposes of the 2008 Plan, is the closing sale price as reported by the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the date in question or, if not a trading day, on the last preceding trading date. | |||||||||
A summary of stock option activity for the six-month period ended April 30, 2014, is as follows: | |||||||||

Summarized information about outstanding stock options as of April 30, 2014, that have already vested and those that are expected to vest, as well as stock options that are currently exercisable, are as follows: | |||||||||

Weighted average exercise price per share | $ | 20.28 | $ | 19.74 | |||||
Intrinsic value of outstanding options | $ | 935,000 | $ | 823,000 | |||||
The intrinsic value of an outstanding stock option is calculated as the difference between the stock price as of April 30, 2014 and the exercise price of the option. | |||||||||
On January 10, 2014, the Compensation Committee approved a long-term incentive compensation arrangement for our executive officers in the form of restricted shares and performance shares awarded under the 2008 Plan. The awards were 25% time-based vesting and 75% performance-based vesting. The three-year performance period is fiscal 2014 through fiscal 2016. | |||||||||
The Compensation Committee granted a total 12,182 shares of time-based restricted shares to our executive officers. The restricted shares vest in thirds over three years from the date of grant provided the recipient remains employed through that date. The grant date fair value of the restricted shares was based upon the closing sales price of our common stock on the date of grant. | |||||||||
The Compensation Committee also granted a total of 16,948 performance shares to our executive officers designated as "Performance Shares -TSR". The shares were weighted as 40% of the overall long-term incentive compensation arrangement and will vest based upon the total shareholder return of our common stock over a three-year period, relative to the total shareholder return of the companies in a specified peer group over that period. Participants will have the ability to earn between 50% of the target number of shares for achieving threshold performance and 200% of the target number of shares for achieving maximum performance. The fair value of the market-based performance shares was calculated using the Monte Carlo approach. | |||||||||
The Compensation Committee also granted a total of 17,056 performance shares to our executive officers designated as "Performance Shares -ROIC". These shares were weighted as 35% of the overall long-term incentive compensation arrangement and will vest based upon the achievement of pre-established goals related to our average return on invested capital over the three-year period. Participants will have the ability to earn between 50% of the target number of shares for achieving threshold performance and 200% of the target number of shares for achieving maximum performance. The grant date fair value of the ROIC performance shares was based on the closing sales price of our common stock on the grant date. | |||||||||
On March 13, 2014, the Compensation Committee granted a total of 11,235 shares of restricted stock to our non-employee directors. The restricted stock vests in full one year from the date of grant provided the recipient remains on the board of directors through that date. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock was based on the closing sales price of our common stock on the grant date which was $24.92 per share. | |||||||||
A reconciliation of the activity relating to outstanding share awards made under the 2008 Plan and related information is as follows: | |||||||||
Number of | Grant Date | ||||||||
Shares | Fair Value | ||||||||
Unvested at October 31, 2013 | 68,456 | 23.01 | |||||||

During the first six months of fiscal 2014 and 2013, we recorded $511,000 and $503,000, respectively, as stock-based compensation expense attributable to stock option and share awards. As of April 30, 2014, there was an estimated $1.5 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense that we expect to recognize by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2017. | |||||||||

On July 1, 2013, we acquired the machine tool component business of an Italian designer and manufacturer of electro-mechanical components and accessories for machine tools. We are operating this business through our wholly-owned Italian subsidiary, LCM Precision Technologies, or LCM. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The purchase price for the acquired assets and the assumed liabilities was $5.0 million. The allocation of the opening balance sheet of LCM as of July 1, 2013 is as follows (in thousands): | |||||||
Current assets | $ | 6,723 | |||||

Indebtedness assumed | 4,643 | ||||||
Total purchase price | $ | 5,023 | |||||
Intangible assets of $1.4 million were recorded as a result of the transaction. The fair value of the intangible assets was based upon a discounted cash flow method that involves inputs that are not observable in the market (Level 3). Intangible assets are amortized primarily using a straight-line methodology. The intangible assets consisted of the following (in thousands): | |||||||
Remaining | |||||||
Economic | |||||||

Trademark/name | $ | 274 | 13 years | ||||
Technology and manufacturing know how | 1,111 | 13 years | |||||
Customer relationships | 52 | 16 years | |||||
$ | 1,437 | ||||||
The excess purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill in the amount of $2.5 million. Goodwill recognized in the acquisition relates primarily to advancing our machine tool technology and expanding our current product offering. We expect the amount recorded as goodwill to be fully deductible for tax purposes. | |||||||
The results of operations of LCM have been included in our consolidated financial statements since July 1, 2013. | |||||||

We follow FASB guidance for accounting for contingencies relating to the guarantor's accounting for, and disclosures of, the issuance of certain types of guarantees. | |||||||||
From time to time, our subsidiaries guarantee third party payment obligations in connection with the sale of machines to customers that use financing. As of April 30, 2014, we had 20 outstanding third party payment guarantees totaling approximately $1.6 million. The terms of these guarantees are consistent with the underlying customer financing terms. Upon shipment of a machine, the customer has the risk of ownership. The customer does not obtain title, however, until it has paid for the machine. A retention of title clause allows us to recover the machine if the customer defaults on the financing. We accrue for potential liabilities under these guarantees when we believe a loss is probable and can be estimated. | |||||||||
We provide warranties on our products with respect to defects in material and workmanship. The terms of these warranties are generally one year for machines and certain components and shorter periods for service parts. We recognize a reserve with respect to this obligation at the time of product sale, with subsequent warranty claims recorded against the reserve. The amount of the warranty reserve is determined based on historical trend experience and any known warranty issues that could cause future warranty costs to differ from historical experience. A reconciliation of the changes in our warranty reserve is as follows (in thousands): | |||||||||

On December 7, 2012, we entered an agreement with a financial institution that provided us with a $12.5 million unsecured revolving credit and letter of credit facility, with a $3.0 million maximum amount for outstanding letters of credit on the credit facility. On May 9, 2014 the maximum amount for outstanding letters of credit under our U.S. credit facility was increased from $3.0 million to $5.0 million in order to guarantee a new revolving credit facility in Taiwan. Borrowings under the U.S. credit facility bear interest at a LIBOR-based rate or a floating rate of 1% above the prevailing prime rate. The floating rate is not less than the greatest of (a) a one month LIBOR-based rate plus 1.00% per annum, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% per annum, and (c) the prevailing prime rate. The rate we must pay for that portion of the U.S. credit facility which is not utilized is 0.05% per annum. The agreement permits us to pay cash dividends in an amount not to exceed $1.0 million per calendar year so long as we are not in default before and after giving effect to such dividends. | |||
We have a £1.0 million revolving credit facility in the United Kingdom, a €1.5 million revolving credit facility in Germany and a 100.0 million New Taiwan Dollar revolving credit facility. On May 12, 2014, we established this new Taiwan credit facility in the amount of 100.0 million New Taiwan Dollars (approximately $3.3 million) with an expiration date of May 12, 2015. Our Taiwan credit facility is backed by letters of credit under our U.S. credit facility. | |||
We also have a 40.0 million Chinese Yuan credit facility in China. | |||
All of our credit facilities are unsecured except that borrowings under our Taiwan credit facility are backed by letters of credit drawn on our unsecured U.S. credit facility. | |||
We had $3.2 million and $3.3 million of borrowings outstanding under our China credit facility at April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013, respectively. We had no other debt or borrowings under any of our other credit facilities. At April 30, 2014 we were in compliance with all covenants contained in our credit agreements and, as of that date, we had total unutilized credit facilities of approximately $19.5 million. | |||

Our effective income tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2014 was 30% in comparison to 34% for the same period in fiscal 2013. The decrease in the effective rate was primarily due to changes in the geographic mix of income or loss between tax jurisdictions. We recorded income tax expense during the first six months of fiscal 2014 of $2.5 million compared to $2.8 million for the same period in fiscal 2013, primarily as a result of the lower effective tax rate. We have not provided any U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of our wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries based upon our determination that such earnings will be indefinitely reinvested in our foreign operations. In the event these earnings are later distributed to our U.S. operations, such distributions would likely result in additional U.S. tax that may be offset, at least in part by associated foreign tax credits. | |||
Our unrecognized tax benefits were $1.3 million as of April 30, 2014 and as of October 31, 2013, and in each case included accrued interest. | |||
We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of income tax expense. As of April 30, 2014, the gross amount of interest accrued, reported in Accrued expenses and other, was approximately $8,000, which did not include the federal tax benefit of interest deductions. | |||
We file U.S. federal and state income tax returns, as well as tax returns in several foreign jurisdictions. The statutes of limitations with respect to unrecognized tax benefits will expire between July 2015 and July 2018. | |||

Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||
FASB guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which categorizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exist, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. | |||||||||||||||||
In accordance with this guidance, the following table represents the fair value hierarchy for our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013 (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||
Assets | Liabilities | ||||||||||||||||

Level 2 | |||||||||||||||||
Derivatives | $ | 53 | $ | 699 | $ | 1,737 | $ | 1,212 | |||||||||
Included in Level 1 assets are mutual fund investments under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. We estimate the fair value of these investments on a recurring basis using readily available market prices. | |||||||||||||||||
Included as Level 2 fair value measurements are derivative assets and liabilities related to gains and losses on foreign currency forward exchange contracts entered into with a third party. We estimate the fair value of these derivatives on a recurring basis using foreign currency exchange rates obtained from active markets. Derivative instruments are reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value. We have derivative financial instruments in the form of foreign currency forward exchange contracts as described in Note 2 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in which the U.S. Dollar equivalent notional amounts of these contracts was $121.2 million and $105.0 million at April 30, 2014 and October 31, 2013, respectively. The fair value of Derivative assets recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $53,000 at April 30, 2014 and $699,000 at October 31, 2013. The fair value of Derivative liabilities recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $1.7 million at April 30, 2014 and $1.2 million at October 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
The fair value of our foreign currency forward exchange contracts and the related currency positions are subject to offsetting market risk resulting from foreign currency exchange rate volatility. The counterparty to the forward exchange contracts is a substantial and creditworthy financial institution. We do not consider either the risk of counterparty non-performance or the economic consequences of counterparty non-performance as material risks. | |||||||||||||||||

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits, reflecting the manner in which an entity would settle, at the reporting date, any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this accounting standard update will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. | |
