NOLAND COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Noland Company and Subsidiary contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2001, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2000 was derived from audited financial statements as of that date.
2. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's December 31, 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K are an integral part of the interim unaudited financial statements. The Company takes a physical inventory in the fourth quarter of each year. The Company uses estimated gross profit rates to determine cost of goods sold during interim periods. In addition, the Company makes certain estimates to compute the LIFO reserve and other inventory year-end adjustments and such estimates at interim may not be consistent with year-end results. Year-end inventory adjustments to reflect actual inventory levels are made in the fourth quarter.
3. Due to the seasonal nature of the construction industry supplied by the registrant, results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
4. Accounts Receivable as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 are net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,008,132. Quarterly bad debt charges, net of recoveries, were $262,522 for 2001 and $260,751 for 2000. Year-to-date bad debt charges, net of recoveries, were $529,488 for 2001 and $553,005 for 2000.
5. Revenue from product sales is generally recognized when goods are received by the customer and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer.
6. The difference in diluted and basic average shares outstanding used to calculate earnings per share is due to non-vested shares of restricted stock.
7. The Company entered into two separate interest rate swap arrangements with two banks late in the second quarter of 2001. The purpose of the swaps is to hedge the Company's interest rate risk. The arrangements are pay-fixed receive-variable swap on $20 million of the Company's long-term debt. Changes in the fair market value of the derivative are not significant for the quarter. Future quarters will reflect changes in fair value and will be recorded in other comprehensive income.
8. In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. 141, Business Combinations and Statement of Financial Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001; the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting is prohibited after this time. Statement 141 also establishes specific criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill, and it requires unallocated negative goodwill to be written off immediately as an extraordinary gain (instead of being deferred and amortized). Statement 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill and instead requires a periodic review of any goodwill balance for possible impairment. The Statement also requires that goodwill be allocated at the reporting unit level. This Statement is effective for years beginning after Decembe r 15, 2001. The Company will be required to discontinue amortization of goodwill as of January 1, 2002, and intends to complete an analysis of goodwill and an initial impairment test by the end of 2001. Statement 142 also contains provisions related to intangible assets other than goodwill. However, the Company currently has no intangible assets other than goodwill in its continuing operations. These Statements are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Included in this discussion are forward-looking management comments and other statements which reflect management's current outlook for the future. Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general business and economic conditions, climactic conditions, competitive pricing pressures, and product availability.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company maintains its short- and long-term liquidity through: (1) cash flow from operations; (2) short-term borrowings from bank lines of credit arrangements, when needed; and (3) additional long-term debt, when needed.
The Company's financial condition remains strong with working capital of $68.2 million and a current ratio of 2.12. Total cash was $494,000 for the first six months compared to $2 million for the same period last year. The decline is due in part to lower earnings for the first six months as compared to last year. As discussed in Footnote 7 above, the Company has taken steps to protect itself against the possibility of a rising interest rate environment. This was done by utilizing a pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swap. Additionally, the final payment of a 9.6% note will be made in the third quarter. This will further reduce the Company's interest expense. Management believes the Company has adequate financial resources to meet the needs of the foreseeable future.
Results of Operations
Second-quarter sales of $127.5 million were 1.3 percent less than the $129.1 million total for 2000's second quarter. Plumbing sales declined 3.1 percent and electrical/industrial sales were off 8.4 percent. Air conditioning sales, which benefited from a new three-branch operation in Florida, increased 8 percent. Sales for the first six months of 2001 were $242.4 million, 3.1 percent less than the $250.1 million total for the year-earlier period.
The gross margin of profit rose slightly in the second quarter from 19.1 percent in second quarter 2000 to 19.7 percent for this year. Gross margins were helped due to a smaller LIFO inventory adjustment for this year compared to 2000. Operating expenses were up 6.2 percent, largely due to higher utility costs, personnel costs and a decline in non-cash pension credits. For the first six months, gross margins increased from 19.4 percent to 19.8 percent and operating expenses increased 5.1 percent. Operating expenses for the quarter and first six months were affected by pension credits generated by the Company's overfunded pension plan of $645,000 and $1,290,000 compared to $1,106,000 and $2,212,000 for the same periods a year ago.
Other income for the quarter and first six months declined compared to last year because of the sale of a corporate aircraft in the second quarter of 2000.
Interest expense for the quarter and first six months is down 39.6 and 32.6 percent, respectively. Lower average borrowing and lower interest rates contributed to the declines.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Noland Company's market risk exposure from changes in interest rates and foreign currency are not material. As previously mentioned, the Company has taken steps through the use of hedging and derivatives to minimize exposure to rising interest rates. The Company's pension plan is overfunded, resulting in prepaid pension asset. The prepaid pension asset is subject to change based on the performance of the plan investments and the discount rate. Changes in the investment performance, discount rate, and other factors may cause the amount of pension income to increase or decrease from year-to-year.
