| NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) |
| | | | | |
1. | In the opinion of Bucyrus International, Inc. (the "Company"), the consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial results for the interim periods. Certain items are included in these statements based on estimates for the entire year. Actual results in future periods may differ from the estimates. The Company’s operations are classified as one operating segment. |
2. | Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from these interim consolidated condensed financial statements. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2004 Annual Report to Shareholders and Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2005. |
3. | On May 27, 2005, the Company entered into a new credit agreement which provides for a five-year $120.0 million revolving credit facility that may, at the Company’s request and with the lenders' approval, be increased to $150.0 million. Proceeds from this revolving credit facility were used to pay in full the previously outstanding senior secured term loan. The Company had $85.9 million of borrowings under its new revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2005. The new credit agreement provides that interest on borrowed amounts would initially be set at either the prime rate plus .25% or LIBOR plus 1.25%, with quarterly adjustments to interest rates beginning after six months. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base formula based on the value of eligible receivables and inventory. |

The Company’s operations and properties are subject to a broad range of federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to environmental matters, including laws and regulations governing discharges into the air and water, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous substances and wastes, and the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances at the Company’s facilities and at off-site disposal locations. These laws are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. Future events, such as compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies or stricter or different interpretations of existing laws, could require additional expenditures by the Company, which may be material.
12
Environmental problems have not interfered in any material respect with the Company’s manufacturing operations to date. The Company believes that its compliance with statutory requirements respecting environmental quality will not materially affect its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. The Company has an ongoing program to address any potential environmental problems.
Product Warranty
The Company recognizes the cost associated with its warranty policies on its products as revenue is recognized. The amount recognized is based on historical experience. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004:

Product Liability
The Company is normally subject to numerous product liability claims, many of which relate to products no longer manufactured by the Company or its subsidiaries, and other claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company has insurance covering most of these claims, subject to varying deductibles up to $3.0 million, and has various limits of liability depending on the insurance policy year in question. It is the view of management that the final resolution of these claims and other similar claims which are likely to arise in the future will not individually or in the aggregate have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given.
Asbestos Liability
The Company has been named as a co-defendant in approximately 300 personal injury liability cases alleging damages due to exposure to asbestos and other substances, involving approximately 1,490 plaintiffs. The cases are pending in courts in nine states. In all of these cases, insurance carriers have accepted or are expected to accept defense. These cases are in various pre-trial stages. The Company does not believe that costs associated with these matters will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given.
13
Other Litigation
A wholly owned subsidiary of the Company is a defendant in a suit pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, brought on June 15, 2002, relating to an incident in which a dragline operated by an employee of a Company subsidiary tipped over. The owner of the dragline has sued an unaffiliated third party on a negligence theory for property damages and business interruption losses in a range of approximately $25.0 million to $27.0 million. The unrelated third party has brought a third-party action against the Company’s subsidiary. The Company’s insurance carriers are defending the claim, but have not conceded that the relevant policies cover the claim. At this time discovery is ongoing and it is not possible to evaluate the outcome of the claim nor the range of potential loss, if any.
A wholly-owned Australian subsidiary of the Company is a defendant in a suit pending in the Supreme Court of Queensland in Australia, brought on May 5, 2002, relating to a contractual claim. The plaintiff, pursuant to a contract with the Company’s subsidiary, agreed to erect a dragline sold by the Company to a customer for use at its mine site. The plaintiff asserts various contractual claims related to breach of contract damages and other remedies for approximately AUS $3.6 million related to its claim that it is owed amounts for services rendered under the contract. The Company’s subsidiary has asserted counterclaims against the plaintiff in connection with certain aspects of the work performed. This matter is anticipated to go to trial in late 2006. The Company has established a reserve for its estimate of the resolution of this matter.

BUCYRUS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The Company designs, manufactures and markets large excavation machinery used for surface mining, and provides comprehensive aftermarket services, supplying replacement parts and offering maintenance and repair contracts and services for these machines. The Company manufactures its original equipment (“OEM”) products and the majority of aftermarket parts at its facility in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Company’s principal OEM products are draglines, electric mining shovels and rotary blasthole drills, which are used primarily by customers who mine copper, coal, oil sands and iron ore throughout the world. In addition, the Company provides aftermarket services in mining centers throughout the world, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, India, Peru, South Africa and the United States. The largest markets for mining equipment have historically been in Australia, Canada, South Africa, South America and the United States. In the future, Canada, China and India are expected to be increasingly important markets.
The market for OEM machines is closely correlated with customer expectations of sustained strength in prices of surface mined commodities. Growth in demand for these commodities is a function of, among other things, economic activity, population increases and continuing improvements in standards of living in many areas of the world. In 2002, the market prices of many surface-mined commodities were generally weak. In 2003 and 2004, market prices for copper, coal, iron ore and oil increased and have continued to be strong in 2005. Factors that could support sustained demand for these key commodities in 2005 and future years include continued economic growth in China, India and the developing world and renewed economic strength in industrialized countries. In the past quarter, inquiries for new machines have increased from prior quarters. The highest interest has been in the oil sands of Western Canada and copper mines in South America. Inquiries from other areas of the world have also increased.
The Company’s aftermarket parts and service operations, which have accounted for approximately 70% of sales over the past ten years, tend to be more consistent than OEM machine sales; however, recent pronounced strength in commodity markets has positively affected aftermarket sales. The Company’s complex machines are typically kept in continuous operation from 15 to 40 years, requiring regular maintenance and repair throughout their productive lives. The size of the Company’s installed base of surface mining equipment and its ability to provide on-time delivery of reliable parts and prompt service are important drivers of aftermarket sales. Aftermarket orders and inquiries continue to increase as the existing installed fleet of machines operates at very high utilization levels due to the current demands for commodities.
The Company continues to forecast increased sales activity for both aftermarket parts sales and OEM machine sales relative to prior periods of weaker OEM sales. The Company maintains ongoing efforts to improve efficiency and contain costs and continually evaluates all opportunities for reductions to operating costs. While the Company has recorded restructuring charges in recent years, it does not anticipate significant restructuring charges in the current year. Recent strong order volume has caused the Company to hire new employees, and additional hiring is expected. As sustained order strength continues, the Company is taking steps to increase its manufacturing capacity. During the first quarter of 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to lease a facility to be used for expansion of the Company’s manufacturing operations. The Company anticipates that the current commodity demand will continue for at least the next three to five years. The Company is currently reviewing other expansion alternatives.
16
A substantial portion of the Company’s sales and operating earnings is attributable to operations located outside the United States. The Company generally sells its OEM machines, including those sold directly to foreign customers, and most of its aftermarket parts in United States dollars. A portion of the Company’s aftermarket parts sales are also denominated in the local currencies of Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, South Africa and the United Kingdom. Aftermarket services are paid for primarily in local currency which is naturally hedged by the Company’s payment of local labor in local currency. In the aggregate, approximately 70% of the Company’s 2004 sales were priced in United States dollars.
Over the past three years, the Company increased gross profits by improving manufacturing overhead variances, achieving productivity gains and growing its high margin aftermarket parts and services business.
| Following is a discussion of key measures which contributed to the Company’s operating results. |
Key Measures
| On-Time Delivery and Lead Times |
Due to the high fixed cost structure of the Company’s customers, it is critical that they avoid equipment downtime. On-time delivery and reduced lead time of aftermarket parts and services allow customers to reduce downtime and are therefore key measures of customer service, and the Company believes they are fundamental drivers of aftermarket customer demand. The Company’s on-time delivery percentage in the aftermarket, based on achieved promised delivery dates to customers, was 94% for the year 2004 and 93% for the first six months of 2005. Lead times for deliveries were approximately the same in the first six months of 2005 as compared to the year 2004, although some suppliers are now increasing lead times for materials which may affect parts delivery lead times in the future.
The Company increased on-time deliveries and reduced lead times in recent years by focusing on the development of key shop floor metrics, improved communication between sales, manufacturing and shipping, daily or weekly meetings to resolve issues, changing of shipment methods and the hiring of an additional supervisory person dedicated to on-time delivery. The information to accomplish much of these improvements is available from the Company’s enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system.
Sales per full time equivalent employee is a measure of the Company’s operational efficiency. Sales per full time equivalent employee were $.3 million for the first six months of 2005 and $.2 million for the first six months of 2004. The Company has experienced productivity increases in recent years, primarily due to the application of worldwide sales and inventory ERP systems and personnel upgrades which, collectively, allowed sales to grow with minimal changes in headcount.
Product quality is another key driver of customer satisfaction and, as a result, sales. Management uses warranty claims as a percentage of total sales as one objective benchmark to evaluate product quality. During the year 2004 and the first six months of 2005, warranty claims as a percentage of total sales were less than 1%.
17
Backlog
Backlog is a tool which allows management to forecast sales and production requirements. Due to the high cost of some OEM products, backlog is subject to volatility, particularly over relatively short periods. A portion of the Company’s backlog is related to multi-year contracts that will generate revenue in future years. The following table shows backlog at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 as well as the portion of backlog which is or was expected to be recognized within twelve months of these dates:
| June 30, 2005
| | December 31, 2004
| |
---|
| (Dollars in Thousands) | |

| | | | | | | | |
Next 12 months | | | $ | 324,367 | | $ | 231,455 | |
Total | | | | 573,268 | | | 436,317 | |
The increase in the Company’s backlog at June 30, 2005 is due to the improved market conditions in which the Company sells its products.
Inventory is one of the Company’s significant assets. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $147.5 million in inventory. Inventory turned at a rate of approximately 2.9 times during the first six months of 2005 and approximately 3.0 times in the year 2004. Inventory turns is calculated based on cost of sales and the average inventory balance during the prior twelve months. The Company believes that it has appropriately recorded at the lower of cost or market any slow moving or obsolete inventory in its financial statements. The factors that could reduce the carrying value of the Company’s inventory include reduced demand for aftermarket parts due to decreased sales volumes attributable to new or improved technology or customers discontinuing the use of the Company’s older model machines, which could render inventory obsolete or excess. With the exception of the normal inventory obsolescence provision recorded in the ordinary course of business, the Company does not anticipate recording any significant inventory impairments.
Results of Operations
Quarter And Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared to Quarter And Six Months Ended June 30, 2004
Sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 were $140.0 million and $245.6 million, respectively, compared with $117.0 million and $214.1 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Sales of aftermarket parts and services for the second quarter of 2005 were $85.1 million, an increase of 2.3% from $83.2 million for the second quarter of 2004. Sales of aftermarket parts and services for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $162.9 million, an increase of 6.7% from $152.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increases in aftermarket sales in 2005 reflect the Company’s initiatives and strategies to capture additional market share as well as continued strong commodity prices. A significant portion of the increase in aftermarket sales for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was in the United States. Machine sales for the second quarter of 2005 were $54.9 million,
18
an increase of 62.7% from $33.8 million for the second quarter of 2004. Machine sales for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $82.7 million, an increase of 34.5% from $61.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in machine sales for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to the recognition of sales on two draglines that were sold in 2004. The increase in machine sales for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was primarily due to the aforementioned draglines as well as increased electric mining shovel sales. Approximately $1.7 million and $3.8 million of the increases in sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, was attributable to a weakening United States dollar, which primarily impacted aftermarket sales (see "Foreign Currency Fluctuations" below).
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2005 was $31.0 million or 22.1% of sales compared with $24.8 million or 21.2% of sales for the second quarter of 2004. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $60.0 million or 24.4% compared with $44.4 million or 20.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to an increased sales volume and higher gross margins on both machines and aftermarket sales. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 was reduced by $2.5 million of additional depreciation expense as a result of the purchase price allocation to plant and equipment in connection with acquisitions involving the Company. Approximately $.4 million and $.8 million of the increase in gross profit for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, was attributable to a weakening United States dollar, which primarily impacted aftermarket sales (see "Foreign Currency Fluctuations" below).
| Selling, General and Administrative Expenses |
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 were $12.1 million or 8.7% of sales compared with $14.2 million or 12.1% of sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $24.4 million or 10.0% of sales compared to $28.3 million or 13.2% of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 included $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, related to non-cash stock-based employee compensation compared to $3.3 million and $7.4 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004. Selling expenses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 increased by $1.2 million and $2.4 million, respectively, from 2004 primarily due to increased sales efforts and higher foreign costs as a result of the weakened U.S. dollar, but remained relatively constant as a percentage of sales. Foreign currency transaction gains for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 were $.5 million and $1.3 million, respectively, compared with gains of $.2 million and $.8 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.
| Research and Development Expenses |
Research and development expenses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 were $1.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively, compared with $1.3 million and $2.6 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.
19
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets, consisting primarily of engineering drawings, bill of material listings and software, was $.5 million and $.9 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, compared with $.4 million and $.8 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively.
Operating earnings for the second quarter of 2005 were $16.9 million or 12.1% of sales, compared with $8.9 million or 7.6% of sales for the second quarter of 2004. Operating earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $31.9 million or 13.0% of sales, compared with $12.7 million or 5.9% of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Operating earnings for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 increased from 2004 due to increased gross profit resulting from an increased sales volume and higher gross margins on both machines and aftermarket sales. Operating earnings for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004 were reduced by $3.3 million and $7.4 million, respectively, of non-cash stock compensation expense. Approximately $.3 million and $.4 million of the increase in operating earnings for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, was attributable to a weakening United States dollar (see "Foreign Currency Fluctuations" below).
Interest expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 was $1.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively, compared with $4.2 million and $8.3 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The decrease in interest expense in 2005 was due to the refinancing of the Company’s capital structure in connection with its initial public offering which was completed on July 28, 2004.
Other expense - net was $.1 million of expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, compared with $.4 million and $.7 million of expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Debt issuance cost amortization was $.2 million and $.5 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 compared with $.4 million and $.8 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. These amounts include costs related to the Company’s credit facilities (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Financing Cash Flows" below).
Income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 was $5.5 million and $10.0 million, respectively, compared with $1.7 million and $3.1 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Income tax expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004 consisted primarily of foreign taxes at applicable statutory rates since taxable U.S. income was offset by federal net operating loss carryforwards. In 2005, U.S. taxable income exceeded available net operating loss carryforwards and income tax expense was recorded. At June 30, 2005, the Company had approximately $14.3 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards.

The management services agreement was terminated in July 2004. EBITDA is also reduced by restructuring charges (severance) for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 of $60,000 and $116,000, $73,000 and $170,000, respectively. |
(3) | Non-cash stock compensation expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004 represents the charge recorded related to stock options issued prior to the completion of the Company’s initial public offering on July 28, 2004. At the time of the initial public offering, the plan required certain modifications to the determination of fair market value for these previously issued options. In accordance with EITF Issue No. 87-23, no further compensation expense was recorded subsequent to July 28, 2004 related to stock options issued under this plan prior to the Company’s initial public offering. Under existing accounting standards, provision for compensation expense related to the 24,000 shares of restricted stock issued under the Bucyrus International, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan in September 2004 will be approximately $.2 million annually over the four years subsequent to the date of issuance. |

Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the remainder of 2005, the Company anticipates strong cash flows from operations due to continued strength in aftermarket parts sales as well as increased demand for new machines. In expanding markets, customers are generally contractually obligated to make progress payments under purchase contracts for machine orders. As a result, the Company does not anticipate significant outside financing requirements to fund production of these machines and does not believe that new machine sales will have a negative long-term effect on its liquidity. If additional borrowings are necessary during the remainder of 2005, the Company believes it has sufficient capacity under its new revolving credit facility (see “Financing Cash Flows" below).
The following table summarizes the Company’s contractual obligations with respect to long-term debt and short-term obligations as of June 30, 2005:

There have been no material changes to the contractual obligations with respect to purchase obligations and operating leases and rental and service agreements as presented in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report to Shareholders.
The Company’s capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $8.0 million compared with $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Included in capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $2.2 million related to the new manufacturing facility in Milwaukee. The Company expects a continued increase in capital expenditures during the remainder of 2005 as it increases manufacturing capacity and upgrades and replaces manufacturing equipment to support increased sales activity. The Company believes cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to fund capital expenditures in 2005.
At June 30, 2005, there were $26.9 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under all Company bank facilities.
The Company believes that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund its cash requirements for the next twelve months.
The Company intends to pay quarterly cash dividends of $0.575 per share (equal to $.23 per year). A quarterly cash dividend of $1.2 million was declared on April 14, 2005 and paid on May 16, 2005.

While the Company had $6.8 million of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2005, this cash is located at various foreign subsidiaries and is used for working capital purposes. Cash receipts in the United States are applied against the Company’s revolving credit facility.
During the first six months of 2005, the Company generated cash from operating activities of $5.7 million compared to $21.6 million in the first six months of 2004. The decrease in cash flows from operating activities was driven primarily by increased working capital requirements.
The Company recognizes revenues on its machine orders using the percentage-of-completion method. Accordingly, accounts receivable are generated when revenue is recognized, which can be before the funds are collected or in some cases, before the customer is billed. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $106.5 million of receivables compared to $90.8 million of receivables at December 31, 2004. Receivables at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 included $36.9 million and $31.4 million, respectively, of revenues from long-term contracts which were not billable at these dates.
| Liabilities to Customers on Uncompleted Contracts and Warranties |
Customers generally make down payments at the time of the order for a new machine as well as progress payments throughout the manufacturing process. In accordance with SOP No. 81-1, these payments are recorded as Liabilities to Customers on Uncompleted Contracts and Warranties. The increase of $3.7 million from December 31, 2004 to June 30, 2005 was due to the receipt of customer payments on certain long-term machine contracts for which the related revenue has yet to be recognized.
On May 27, 2005, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with GMAC Commercial Finance LLC as lead lender. The new credit agreement provides for a five year $120.0 million revolving credit facility that may, at the Company’s request and with the lender’s approval, be increased to $150.0 million. The new credit agreement provides that interest on borrowed amounts would initially be set at either the prime rate plus .25% or LIBOR plus 1.25%, with quarterly adjustments to interest rates beginning after six months. Proceeds from this new revolving credit facility were used to pay in full the previously outstanding senior secured term loan. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are subject to a borrowing base formula based on the value of eligible receivables and inventory. At June 30, 2005, the Company had $85.9 million of borrowings under its revolving credit facility at a weighted average interest rate of 4.9%. The amount available for borrowings under the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2005 was $12.9 million.
24
The new credit agreement contains covenants limiting the discretion of management with respect to key business matters and places significant restrictions on, among other things, the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens or other encumbrances, make certain payments or investments, loans and guarantees, and sell or otherwise dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with another entity. All of the Company’s domestic assets and the receivables and inventory of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary are pledged as collateral under the revolving credit facility. In addition, the outstanding capital stock of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries as well as the majority of the capital stock of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are pledged as collateral. The Company is also required to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, including a leverage ratio (as defined). The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants as of June 30, 2005.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company’s market risk is impacted by changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rates
The Company’s interest rate exposure relates primarily to floating rate debt obligations in the United States. The Company manages its borrowings under its credit facilities through the selection of LIBOR-based borrowings or prime-rate based borrowings. If market conditions warrant, interest rate swaps may be used to adjust interest rate exposures, although none have been used to date.
At June 30, 2005, a sensitivity analysis was performed for the Company’s floating rate debt obligations. Based on this sensitivity analysis, the Company has determined that a 10% change in the Company’s weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2005 would have the effect of changing the Company’s interest expense on an annual basis by approximately $400,000.
Foreign Currency
The Company sells new machines, including those sold directly to foreign customers, and most of its aftermarket parts in United States dollars. A limited amount of aftermarket parts sales are denominated in the local currencies of Australia, Canada, Chile, South Africa, Brazil and the United Kingdom which subjects the Company to foreign currency risk. Aftermarket sales and a portion of the labor costs associated with such activities are denominated or paid in local currencies. As a result, a relatively strong United States dollar could decrease the United States dollar equivalent of the Company’s sales without a corresponding decrease of the United States dollar value of certain related expenses. The Company utilizes some foreign currency derivatives to mitigate foreign exchange risk.
Currency controls, devaluations, trade restrictions and other disruptions in the currency convertibility and in the market for currency exchange could limit the Company’s ability to timely convert sales earned abroad into United States dollars, which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to service its United States dollar indebtedness, fund its United States dollar costs and finance capital expenditures and pay dividends on its common stock.
Based on the Company’s derivative instruments outstanding at June 30, 2005, a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, Controller and Secretary, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")). Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, Controller and Secretary concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2005 to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this Report was being prepared.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
