Knape & Vogt Manufacturing Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Nature of Operations | Knape & Vogt Manufacturing Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the Company) design, manufacture and distribute kitchen and bath storage solutions and office products for original equipment manufacturers, specialty distributors, hardware chains and major home centers. During fiscal 2004, the Company further defined its operating segments by the major markets that it serves. Products are sold worldwide through the Company’s own sales personnel and through independent sales representatives. The Company is headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. |
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Principles of Consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Knape & Vogt Manufacturing Company and its wholly owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances, transactions and stockholdings have been eliminated in consolidation. |
The Company utilizes a 52- or 53-week fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday nearest the end of June. The fiscal year ended July 3, 2004 contained 53 weeks and the fiscal years ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002 each contained 52 weeks. |
Revenue Recognition |
The Company records revenue when title to the product and risk of ownership passes to the buyer. Sales are shown net of returns, discounts and any other form of sales incentive, including cooperative advertising, rebates and merchandising displays. In certain circumstances, the Company does provide buyback programs and markdown allowances to its customers. These amounts are fixed at the start of the contract period with the customer and accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position No. 93-7, “Reporting on Advertising Costs” and Emerging Issues Task Force No. 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer”. The cost of these programs are either expensed at the time of the initial shipment of the goods or are expensed on a prorated basis over the sales of the contract, if the Company has a written commitment from the customer. |
Concentration of Credit Risk |
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and maintains reserves for potential credit losses. |
Shipping and Handling Costs |
Shipping and handling costs that are charged to and reimbursed by the customer are recognized as revenue, while the related expenses incurred by the Company are recorded as cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Foreign Currency Translation |
The accounts of the foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in the exchange rates are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency exchange gains were $149,398 in fiscal 2004, $6,432 in fiscal 2003 and $30,335 in fiscal 2002. |

Knape & Vogt Manufacturing Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Fair Value Disclosures of Financial Instruments |
Financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt and an interest rate swap agreement. The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value at July 3, 2004 and June 28, 2003, because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The estimated carrying value of long-term debt approximates its fair value at July 3, 2004 and June 28, 2003 due to variable interest rates associated with the revolving line of credit. The interest rate swap is valued based on a quoted market price. |
Derivative Financial Instruments |
The Company uses an interest rate swap agreement to modify a portion of the variable rate revolving line of credit to a fixed rate obligation, thereby reducing the exposure to market rate fluctuations. The interest rate swap agreement is designated as a hedge, and effectiveness is determined by matching the principal balance and terms with that specific obligation. Amounts currently due to or from interest rate swap counter parties are recorded in interest expense in the period in which they accrue. The derivative was recognized as a liability on the balance sheet at its fair value of $1,391,133 at July 3, 2004 and $2,554,980 at June 28, 2003. |
Cash and Equivalents |
Cash and equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. |
Inventories |
Inventories are stated at the lower of FIFO (first-in, first-out) cost or market. The Company also has inventory provided to certain of its major customers on a consignment basis. When the Company receives notice that the customer has utilized the consigned inventory, it invoices the customer for the inventory and recognizes revenue on the sale of that inventory. |
Property, Equipment and Depreciation |
Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated, for financial reporting purposes, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. For income tax purposes, accelerated depreciation methods and shorter useful lives are used. Management estimates that the cost to complete the items classified in construction in progress at July 3, 2004 was approximately $919,000. Estimated depreciable lives are as follows: land and improvements, 3 to 20 years; buildings, 3 to 40 years; machinery and equipment, 3 to 20 years. |
Leased Property Under Capital Leases |
Property under capital leases is amortized over the shorter of the lives of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. |

Stock Based Compensation |
The Company accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with APB Opinion 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Since the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation cost is recognized under APB Opinion 25. In accordance with SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company is required to provide pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share as if compensation costs for the Company’s stock option plan had been determined using a fair value based estimate. Had SFAS No. 123 been adopted, there would be no change in either net income or earnings per share as no options have been granted to employees during the past three fiscal years. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets |
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of acquired businesses and effective June 30, 2002, is not amortized, however, in prior years it was amortized using the straight-line method over periods ranging from 15 to 40 years. The recorded goodwill primarily relates to the acquisition of Idea Industries. Other intangibles consist primarily of trademarks, brand names and patents that are being amortized using the straight-line method over periods up to 15 years. |
Self-Insurance |
The Company is partially self-insured for workers’ compensation and certain employee health benefits. The Company is self-insured for environmental issues. The Company purchases stop-loss coverage in order to limit its exposure to any significant levels of workers’ compensation or employee health benefit claims. Losses are recorded when reported and consist of individual case elements. Insurance reserves also include a provision for incurred but not reported losses determined using certain actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry and the Company’s own historical experience. |
Income Taxes |
The Company utilizes the liability method to account for deferred income taxes by applying statutory tax rates in effect at the balance sheet date to differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. The resulting deferred tax liabilities or assets are adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws or rates by means of charges or credits to income tax expense. |
Advertising |
The Company offers cooperative advertising to certain customers. The advertising costs are recorded in accordance with Statement of Position No. 93-7, “Reporting on Advertising Costs” and Emerging Issues Task Force No. 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer”. The cost of these programs is expensed at the same time that the corresponding sales are recognized and are recorded as a reduction of gross sales. Advertising expense, including cooperative advertising, was $1,305,000 in 2004, $976,000 in 2003 and $1,889,000 in 2002. |

Earnings Per Share |
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding in each year. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, plus all shares that would have been outstanding if every potentially dilutive common share had been issued. The numerators and denominators used in the calculations of basic and diluted EPS for each of the last three years are as follows: |

New Accounting Standards |
In January 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 106-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003". This statement permits a sponsor of a postretirement health care plan that provides a prescription drug benefit to make a one-time election to defer accounting for the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (‘the Act”). The Act, signed into law in December 2003, introduces a prescription drug benefit under Medicare (“Medicare part D”) and a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. Given the cap on postretirement benefits introduced in fiscal 2002, the Act is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s accumulated postretirement benefit obligation or the net postretirement benefit costs, however, the Company has elected to defer the adoption of FSP FAS 106-2 until the specific authoritative accounting guidance for the federal subsidy is issued. |
In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 132, Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits,” to improve financial disclosures for defined benefit plans. The revised SFAS requires that companies provide more details about their plan assets, benefit obligations, cash flows, benefit costs and other relevant information. The Company is now required to provide additional disclosures, including, but not limited to, a breakdown of plan assets by category, a description of investment policies and strategies and target allocation percentages for these asset categories. The Company adopted the revised disclosure provisions in the third quarter of fiscal 2004. |
The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 in the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company’s reported net income and earnings per share information, exclusive of goodwill amortization required under previous accounting standards on an after tax basis is as follows: |
Fiscal 2004 | Fiscal 2003 | Fiscal 2002 | |||||||

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements |
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. |
Reclassifications |
Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. |
3. Impairment/ Severance | During 2003, the Company recorded $271,325 pre-tax of severance costs in other expense on the consolidated statement of operations, primarily related to the resignation of two of its executive officers in August 2002. |
During fiscal 2002, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $690,000 in accordance with SFAS 144 for certain precision drawer slide tooling. While the Company will continue to produce the drawer slides, the estimated future cash flows associated with sales of this particular product line were less than the cost of the tooling recorded. |
During fiscal 2002, the Company also decided to reduce its workforce in its Grand Rapids, Michigan facility. Those reductions were committed to by top management prior to the fiscal year end and occurred during the month of July 2002. The Company recorded $245,000 in severance costs at June 29, 2002 in other expense on the consolidated statement of operations. |
4. Inventories | Inventories are valued at the lower of FIFO (first-in, first-out) cost or market. Inventories are summarized as follows: |

$23,955,271 | $18,979,056 | ||||||
5. Warranty | The Company provides a limited lifetime warranty on most products sold. Depending on the product, the lifetime warranty is generally defined in a range of three to fifteen years. The Company does not sell or otherwise issue warranties or warranty extensions as stand alone products. The warranty issues replacement products as the resolution for any warranty claims. Reserves have been established for the various costs associated with the Company’s warranty program. General warranty reserves are based on historical claims experience and other currently available information and are periodically adjusted for business levels and other factors. Specific reserves are established if an issue is identified with the amounts for such reserves based on the estimated cost to correct the problem. The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance. The following table presents the changes in the Company’s product warranty liability: |

On August 28, 2003, the Company entered into a new $35 million revolving credit facility that matures on November 1, 2006. The new three-year revolving credit facility is unsecured and replaces a $45 million credit facility that would have expired in 2004. Interest rates on outstanding loans under the revolving credit facility are either based on the London Interbank Offering Rate (LIBOR), plus a negotiated spread over LIBOR, or at the U.S. prime rate. The new agreement requires the Company to pay a non-use fee on amounts not outstanding under the credit facility based on a ratio of the Company’s adjusted total debt (funded debt less cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization). |
At July 3, 2004, there was a $24,500,000 balance outstanding under this agreement. The interest rate on the first $20,000,000 of the outstanding balance was 1.315% plus an additional 85 basis points credit spread. The interest rate is adjusted to market rates at the end of each interest period and is based on the 90 day LIBOR rate. The interest rate on the remaining balance of $4,500,000 was 1.369%, which was the 30-day LIBOR rate plus an additional 85 basis points credit spread. The agreement requires the Company to pay a non-use fee on amounts not outstanding under the credit facility. At July 3, 2004, the non-use fee was .15%. Both the interest rate and the non-use fees on this agreement fluctuate according to the ratio of the Company’s adjusted total debt (funded debt less cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization). Compensating balances are not required by this agreement. The Company is required under this agreement to maintain certain financial ratios and, at July 3, 2004, was in compliance with these covenants. |
7. Derivative Financial Instruments | The Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement designated as a partial hedge of the Company’s variable rate revolving credit agreement. The purpose of this swap is to fix the interest rate on the variable rate debt and reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations. At July 3, 2004, the notional amount of the swap was $20,000,000. Under this agreement, the Company pays the counterparty interest at a fixed rate of 6.25%, and the counterparty pays the Company interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR. The LIBOR rate on this agreement was 1.31% at July 3, 2004. |
Neither the Company nor the counterparty, which is a major U.S. bank, is required to collateralize its obligation under the swap. The Company is exposed to loss if the counterparty should default. At July 3, 2004, the Company had no exposure to credit loss on the interest rate swap. The Company does not believe that any reasonably likely change in interest rates would have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. |

9. Retirement Plans | The Company has several noncontributory defined benefit pension plans and defined contribution plans covering substantially all of its employees. The defined benefit plans provide benefits based on the participants’ years of service. The Company’s funding policy for defined benefit plans is to make annual contributions, which equal or exceed regulatory requirements. The pension and profit-sharing plans at July 3, 2004 and June 28, 2003 held a combined total of 284,637 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock. |
The Company’s Board of Directors annually approves contributions to the defined contribution plans. Expense for the discretionary profit-sharing plan amounted to $700,666, $667,192 and $750,261 in fiscal 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. |
The Company also has a nonqualified supplemental retirement program (“SERP”) for designated officers of the Company, which includes death and disability benefits. The plan is funded from the general assets of the Company. |
The postretirement health-care plan covers substantially all employees. The plan is unfunded and contributory. During fiscal 2002, the Company amended the plan to place a cap on the Company paid portion of health-care premiums for retirees. |
The Company also provides a 401(k) plan for all of its employees. Employees may contribute up to 100 percent of their pay up to Internal Revenue Service limits. For all hourly employees, the Company will match 50 percent of the first 4 percent that an employee contributes. The amount expensed for the Company match provision of the plan was $218,481, $225,473, and $246,229 in fiscal 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. |

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company employs a total return investment approach whereby a mix of equities and fixed income investments are used to maximize the long-term return of plan assets for a prudent level of risk. Risk tolerance is established through careful consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status, and corporate financial condition. The investment portfolio is comprised of a diversified blend of equity investments, including a mix of large and small capital mutual funds, as well as growth, value, international mutual funds and Company stock. Fixed income investments include both individual debt issues, along with short-term and intermediate term bond funds. |
The Company reviews historical market data and long-term historical relationships, along with current market factors, such as inflation and interest rates when determining the long-term rate of return for plan assets. Peer data and historical returns are also reviewed to check the reasonableness and appropriateness of the long-term rates. |
The Company expects to contribute $189,000 to its defined benefit pension plan, $324,000 to its SERP plan and $203,000 to its other post retirement benefit plan in fiscal 2005. Our estimated future benefit payments under our benefit plans are as follows: |

During fiscal 2003, the Company amended its income tax returns previously filed for fiscal years 1997 and 1999. A change in the federal tax law allowed the Company to utilize a portion of its capital loss from fiscal 1999 that had been previously disallowed. As a result of this change, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $607,000. |

No provision has been made for taxes that may result from future remittances of $3.5 million in undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as of July 3, 2004 because it is expected that such earnings will be reinvested overseas indefinitely. Determination of the amount of any unrecognized deferred income tax liability on earnings not remitted is not practicable. |
11. Stock Option Plans | The 1987 Stock Option Plan provided for the grant of options to key employees of the Company, which provided the ability to purchase shares of common stock. Options were granted at or above the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant, were exercisable from that date and terminated 10 years from the grant date. The plan, as amended in October 1991 and in October 1994, authorized a total of 300,000 shares to be available for issuance under the plan. Grants can no longer be made under the 1987 Stock Option Plan. |
20
Knape & Vogt Manufacturing Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Under the Company’s 1997 Stock Incentive plan, up to 660,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are available for issuance. Issuance can be in the form of stock options or restricted stock; however, no more than 55,000 shares can be issued as restricted stock. Stock options can be granted as incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options. The number of shares of common stock subject to an option granted to a participant under this plan is determined based on the amount of the participant’s election under the Company’s bonus plan. Each participant may elect to receive options by electing to forego a portion of the cash bonus that may be earned by the participant, with the option price determined in accordance with the plan. The exercise price per share of common stock purchasable under an option is a single fixed exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of the common stock at the award date increased by a fixed percentage (based on U.S. Treasury Securities plus 2% less a projected dividend yield) compounded annually over the term of the option. In general, the options vest three years after the date the option was granted and expire five years after the grant date. During fiscal 2004, 2003 and 2002, no options were granted to participants. |
The Executive Compensation Committee, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, determines the eligible persons to whom restricted shares are granted and the price (if any) to be paid by the participant, the conditions under which the participants’ interest in the stock may be forfeited and the period of time during which the participant is not permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, or assign the shares of the restricted stock awarded under this Plan. Except as provided above, upon issuance of the restricted stock, the participant will have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares, including the right to vote them and to receive all dividends and other related distributions. If termination of employment occurs within the restricted period, all shares of stock still subject to restriction will vest or be forfeited in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the Committee. |
The Company’s CEO has 6,600 shares of restricted common stock and the option to purchase an additional 27,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $14.43 per share. The grant and the options will vest if the Company achieves specific financial objectives within a five-year performance period. During the performance period, the CEO may vote and receive dividends on the restricted shares, but the shares are subject to transfer restrictions and are forfeited if the CEO terminates employment or the Company does not achieve its financial objectives. |
Transactions under the plans are as follows: |

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of each option at the grant date, however no options have been granted for the years presented above. |
12. Stockholder' Equity | The Company has three classes of stock: common stock, Class B common stock and unissued preferred stock. Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to the shareholders. Each share of Class B common stock entitles the holder to 10 votes on all such matters, except that the holders of common stock are entitled to elect, voting separately as a class, at least one-quarter of the Company’s directors to be elected at each meeting held for the election of directors. In all other instances, holders of common stock and Class B common stock vote together, except for matters affecting the powers, preferences or rights of the respective classes or as otherwise required under the Michigan Business Corporation Act. With respect to dividend rights, each share of common stock is entitled to cash dividends at least 10% higher than those payable on each share of Class B common stock. Class B common stock is subject to certain restrictions on transfer, but is convertible into common stock on a share-for-share basis at any time. |
The Company has a stock repurchase program under which it purchased no shares in fiscal 2004 and 2,280 shares during fiscal 2003 with the price per share ranging from approximately $9 to $11. At July 3, 2004, the Company has remaining authorization to repurchase an additional 272,202 shares. |
13. Business Segments | During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, management began managing the business and reviewing financial information by market channel rather than by the previous Home & Commercial Products and Office Products divisions. |
22
Knape & Vogt Manufacturing Company and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Office Products division was segregated into two market channels: OEM and dealer. The OEM market channel sells precision drawer slides, hardware and ergonomic products to original equipment office furniture manufacturers. The dealer market channel sells ergonomic products to independent office furniture dealers. These dealers purchase product from office furniture manufacturers and resell the furniture along with design and installation services to the end customer. |
The Home & Commercial Products division was segregated into two market channels: consumer and distribution/other. The consumer market channel sells to a majority of the Company’s product lines to retailers. The distribution/other market channel sells many of the Company’s product lines to kitchen and bath OEM manufacturers and full line woodworking distributors. |
Management has limited its review of the channels to net sales to external customers and operating profit before administrative costs as shown below. In accordance with SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, only those measures prepared on an ongoing basis and reviewed by the chief operating decision maker are disclosed. Due to the complexity in obtaining this information for prior years, restatement of prior year results by channel is impracticable. |
The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. |

15. Commitments and Contingencies | The Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (“CCRA”) has performed an audit of the Company’s sales to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Knape & Vogt Canada. |
Preliminary results from a joint review by the Company and its customs broker indicate that the Company may be liable for certain customs transactions, however, the amount of any such potential liability is unknown at this time. The Company is defending its position that Knape & Vogt Canada is the importer of record for all Knape & Vogt goods shipped into Canada and management believes, that based on the information available at this time, any liability owed to the CCRA will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s earnings. |

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company was sued in the Kent County, Michigan Circuit Court in 1997 by a former employee seeking additional benefits under an executive retirement plan. The Circuit Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, but in June 2002, the Circuit Court was reversed on the Company’s appeal to the Michigan Court of Appeals. A delayed request for leave to appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court which the plaintiff filed was denied during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. In August 2002, the plaintiff filed a lawsuit seeking these retirement benefits in the Federal District Court for the Western District of Michigan. The Company moved to dismiss the federal litigation based on the statute of limitations. In September 2003, the Federal District Court dismissed the litigation. In October 2003, the plaintiff appealed the dismissal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. That appeal is pending. Management believes that any liability resulting from this case will not have a material adverse affect on the Company’s earnings. |
The Company is also subject to other legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. |
In the opinion of management, based on the information presently known and taking into account established accruals of approximately $455,000 at July 3, 2004, the ultimate liability for these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or the results of its operations. |

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of July 3, 2004 and June 28, 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 3, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
