The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Brady Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company," "Brady," "we," or "our") without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the Company, the foregoing statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, its results of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, and cash flows for the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of that date. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from the estimates. | |
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2013. | |
The Company announced its plan to divest its Asia Die-Cut business in the third quarter of fiscal 2013, and incorporated its Balkhausen business into that plan during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 (collectively referred to as "Die-Cut"). As a result, the assets and liabilities have been reclassified in accordance with the authoritative literature on assets held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013. The results of operations of the Company's Die-Cut business have been reported as discontinued operations within the condensed consolidated statements of earnings for all periods presented. In addition, the Brady Medical and Varitronics businesses that were divested in fiscal 2013 are included within discontinued operations. In accordance with the authoritative literature, the Company has elected to not separately disclose the cash flows or other comprehensive income related to the Die-Cut business discontinued operations. Refer to Note K, "Discontinued Operations" for further discussion regarding the business. |

Goodwill decreased by $1,832 during the six months ended January 31, 2014. The decrease was due to purchase accounting adjustments of $2,168 for the deferred tax impact related to the release of escrow from the fiscal 2013 acquisition of Precision Dynamics Corporation ("PDC"), partially offset by the positive effects of foreign translation of $336. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill at January 31, 2014 included $18,225 and $172,280 of accumulated impairment losses within the IDS and WPS segments, respectively, for a total of $190,505. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Other intangible assets include patents, trademarks, customer relationships, non-compete agreements and other intangible assets with finite lives being amortized in accordance with the accounting guidance for other intangible assets.

The gross carrying amount of goodwill and other intangible assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at January 31, 2014, differs from the value assigned to them in the original allocation of purchase price due to the effect of currency fluctuations between the date of acquisition and January 31, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Amortization expense on intangible assets was $5,047 and $5,015 for the three months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $10,124 and $9,162 for the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The amortization over each of the next five fiscal years is projected to be $19,376, $18,555, $16,364, $13,253 and $11,969 for the fiscal years ending July 31, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. |

The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income for the six months ended January 31, 2014 compared to July 31, 2013, was primarily due to the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against other currencies. The foreign currency translation adjustments column in the table above includes the impact of foreign currency translation on intercompany notes and net investment hedges, net of tax. Of the total $291 in amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income, the $57 gain on cash flow hedges was reclassified into cost of products sold and the $234 gain on postretirement plans was reclassified into SG&A on the condensed consolidated statement of earnings for the six months ended January 31, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||

Options to purchase approximately 2,521,000 and 4,044,000 shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock for the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net earnings per share because the option exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares and, therefore, the effect would have been anti-dilutive. |

Segment Information | ||||||||||||||||
Effective May 1, 2013, the Company is organized and managed on a global basis within two business platforms: Identification Solutions and Workplace Safety, which are the reportable segments. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates short-term segment performance based on segment profit or loss and customer sales. Segment profit or loss does not include certain administrative costs, such as the cost of finance, information technology, human resources, legal, and executive leadership, which are managed as global functions. Restructuring charges, impairment charges, equity compensation costs, interest expense, investment and other income (expense) and income taxes are also excluded when evaluating segment performance. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at cost plus a markup that reasonably approximates fair value. | ||||||||||||||||
Each business platform has a President that reports directly to the Company's chief operating decision maker, its Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Each platform has its own distinct operations, maintains its own financial reports and is evaluated based on global segment profit. The Company has determined that these business platforms comprise its operating and reportable segments based on the information used by the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allocate resources and assess performance. | ||||||||||||||||
The segment results have been adjusted to reflect continuing operations in all periods presented. The following is a summary of segment information for the three and six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013: | ||||||||||||||||

Stock-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||
The Company has an incentive stock plan under which the Board of Directors may grant nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock, restricted stock unit awards ("RSUs"), or restricted shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock to employees and non-employee directors. | |||||||||||||
As of January 31, 2014, the Company has reserved 4,144,742 shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock for outstanding stock options, RSUs, and restricted shares. A total of 3,932,311 shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock remain for future issuance of stock options, RSUs, and restricted shares under the active plan. The Company uses treasury stock or will issue new Class A Nonvoting Common Stock to deliver shares under the plan. | |||||||||||||
The Company recognizes the compensation cost of all share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. Total stock-based compensation expense recognized by the Company during the three months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, was $1,777 ($1,102 net of taxes) and $2,521 ($1,538 net of taxes), respectively. Expense recognized during the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, was $4,377 ($2,714 net of taxes) and $6,868 ($4,190 net of taxes), respectively. | |||||||||||||
As of January 31, 2014, total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based compensation awards was $9,403 pre-tax, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. | |||||||||||||
The Company has estimated the fair value of its service-based option awards granted during the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation model are reflected in the following table: | |||||||||||||

The Company uses historical data regarding stock option exercise behaviors to estimate the expected term of options granted based on the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s historical dividend payments and historical yield. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the grant date for the length of time corresponding to the expected term of the option. The market value is calculated as the average of the high and the low stock price on the date of the grant. | |||||||||||||

Fair Value Measurements | ||||||||||||||
In accordance with fair value accounting guidance, the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair market value are classified in one of the following categories: | ||||||||||||||
Level 1 — Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. | ||||||||||||||
Level 2 — Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models for which pricing inputs were either directly or indirectly observable. | ||||||||||||||
Level 3 — Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models with significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the use of management estimates. | ||||||||||||||
The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine their fair values. | ||||||||||||||

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument: | ||||||||||||||
Trading securities: The Company’s deferred compensation investments consist of investments in mutual funds. These investments were classified as Level 1 as the shares of these investments trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable us to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. | ||||||||||||||
Foreign exchange contracts: The Company’s foreign exchange contracts were classified as Level 2, as the fair value was based on the present value of the future cash flows using external models that use observable inputs, such as interest rates, yield curves and foreign exchange rates. See Note I, “Derivatives and Hedging Activities,” for additional information. | ||||||||||||||
There have been no transfers of assets or liabilities between the fair value hierarchy levels outlined above during the three or six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013. In addition, the Company had no significant measurements of assets or liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis subsequent to their initial recognition during the three and six months ended January 31, 2014, except for the fair value measurement performed on the Die-Cut disposal group. The assets and liabilities of the disposal group were recorded at approximate fair value less costs to sell and classified as "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities held for sale" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013. Fair value was determined utilizing a combination of external market factors and internal projections. A loss on the write-down of the disposal group of $15,658 was recorded within discontinued operations in the third quarter of fiscal 2013. There were no additional fair value adjustments recorded during the three or six months ended January 31, 2014. | ||||||||||||||
During fiscal 2013, goodwill with a carrying amount of $183,146 in the WPS Americas reporting unit was written down to its estimated implied fair value of $10,866 and represented a Level 3 asset measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at July 31, 2013, which was subsequent to its original recognition. In order to arrive at the implied fair value of goodwill, the Company calculated the fair value of all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Intangible assets consisted of customer relationships and tradenames, which were valued using the income approach. As a result of the analysis, indefinite-lived tradenames with a carrying amount of $25,449 were written down to the estimated fair value of $14,881 and represented a Level 3 asset measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at July 31, 2013, which was subsequent to its original recognition. | ||||||||||||||
During fiscal 2013, goodwill with a carrying amount of $18,225 in the IDS APAC reporting unit was written off in its entirety and represented a Level 3 asset measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at July 31, 2013, which was subsequent to its original recognition. In order to arrive at the implied fair value of goodwill, the Company completed a qualitative assessment because the amount by which the carrying value exceeded fair value was more than the balance of goodwill remaining. | ||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial instruments, other than those presented in the disclosures above, include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes payable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term and long-term debt. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes payable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. | ||||||||||||||
The estimated fair value of the Company’s short-term and long-term debt obligations, excluding notes payable, based on the quoted market prices for similar issues and on the current rates offered for debt of similar maturities was $280,501 and $288,055 at January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, respectively, as compared to the carrying value of $264,327 and $262,414 at January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, respectively. | ||||||||||||||
There was $9,000 outstanding on the Company's revolving loan agreement and $14,946 outstanding on the Company's USD-denominated line of credit facility with Bank of America in China at January 31, 2014. These outstanding balances are classified as "Notes Payable" in the amount of $23,946 on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the fair value approximates carrying value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. See Note L, "Notes Payable," for additional information. |

Restructuring | ||||||||||||||||
During the six months ended January 31, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan to consolidate facilities in North America, Europe and Asia. The Company implemented this restructuring plan to enhance customer service, improve efficiency of operations and reduce operating expenses. The Company expects to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $22 million in fiscal 2014 due primarily to facility consolidation activities. Facility consolidation activities will extend into fiscal 2015. | ||||||||||||||||
As a result of these restructuring plans, the Company incurred restructuring charges of $4,324 and $11,163 in continuing operations during the three and six months ended January 31, 2014, respectively. The three month restructuring charges of $4,324 consisted of $1,274 of employee separation costs, $97 of fixed asset write-offs, $2,335 of facility closure related costs, and $618 of contract termination costs. Of the $4,324 of restructuring charges recorded during the quarter, $2,458 was incurred within IDS and $1,866 within WPS. | ||||||||||||||||
The year-to date restructuring charges of $11,163 consisted of $7,765 of employee separation costs, $97 of fixed asset write-offs, $2,683 of facility closure related costs, and $618 of contract termination costs. Of the $11,163 of restructuring charges recorded year-to date, $6,434 was incurred within IDS and $4,729 within WPS. | ||||||||||||||||
In fiscal 2013, the Company implemented a restructuring plan to reduce its global workforce to address its cost structure. During the three and six months ended January 31, 2013, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $1,933 in continuing operations which consisted of employee separation costs. Of the $1,933 of restructuring charges recorded during the three and six months ended January 31, 2013, $1,725 was incurred within IDS and $208 within WPS. | ||||||||||||||||
The charges for employee separation costs in fiscal 2014 and 2013 consisted of severance pay, outplacement services, medical and other benefits. The costs related to these restructuring activities were recorded on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings as restructuring charges. The Company expects the majority of the remaining cash payments to be made during the next twelve months. | ||||||||||||||||

Derivatives and Hedging Activities | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company utilizes forward foreign exchange currency contracts to reduce the exchange rate risk of specific foreign currency denominated transactions. These contracts typically require the exchange of a foreign currency for U.S. dollars at a fixed rate at a future date, with maturities of less than 18 months, which qualify as cash flow hedges or net investment hedges under the accounting guidance for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The primary objective of the Company’s foreign currency exchange risk management program is to minimize the impact of currency movements due to transactions in other than the respective subsidiaries’ functional currency and to minimize the impact of currency movements on the Company’s net investment denominated in a currency other than the U.S. Dollar. To achieve this objective, the Company hedges a portion of known exposures using forward foreign exchange currency contracts. As of January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, the notional amount of outstanding forward exchange contracts was $124,210 and $157,500, respectively. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company hedges a portion of known exposure using forward exchange contracts. Main exposures are related to transactions denominated in the British Pound, the Euro, Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar, Malaysian Ringgit and Singapore Dollar. Generally, these risk management transactions will involve the use of foreign currency derivatives to minimize the impact of currency movements on non-functional currency transactions. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hedge effectiveness is determined by how closely the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument offset the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item. Hedge accounting is permitted only if the hedging relationship is expected to be highly effective at the inception of the hedge and on an on-going basis. Gains or losses on the derivative related to hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Cash Flow Hedges | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company has designated a portion of its foreign exchange contracts as cash flow hedges and recorded these contracts at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For these instruments, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. As of January 31, 2014, unrealized gains of $258 have been included in OCI. As of January 31, 2013, unrealized losses of $207 were included in OCI. Balances are reclassified from OCI to earnings during the next twelve months when the hedged transactions impact earnings. For the three months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company reclassified gains of $2 and $90 from OCI into earnings, respectively. For the six months ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company reclassified gains of $92 and $557 from OCI into earnings. At January 31, 2014, the U.S. dollar equivalent of these outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts totaled $14,249, including contracts to sell Euros, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars, British Pounds and U.S. Dollars. There were no outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of July 31, 2013. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

The Company has also designated intercompany and third party foreign currency denominated debt instruments as net investment hedges. At January 31, 2014, the Company designated £25,036 of intercompany loans as net investment hedges to hedge portions of its net investment in British operations. On May 13, 2010, the Company completed the private placement of €75 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes to accredited institutional investors. This Euro-denominated debt obligation was designated as a net investment hedge to selectively hedge portions of its net investment in European operations. The Company’s foreign denominated debt obligations are valued under a market approach using publicized spot prices. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Additionally, the Company utilizes forward foreign exchange currency contracts designated as hedge instruments to hedge portions of the Company’s net investments in foreign operations. The net gains or losses attributable to changes in spot exchange rates are recorded in other comprehensive income. Recognition in earnings of amounts previously recorded in cumulative translation is limited to circumstances such as complete or substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the hedged foreign operation. At January 31, 2014 and July 31, 2013, the U.S dollar equivalent of these outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts totaled $5,500. As of January 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized OCI losses of $280 and $367, respectively, on its outstanding net investment hedges. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, "Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income," which requires entities to disclose additional information for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"). For items reclassified out of AOCI and into net earnings in their entirety, entities are required to disclose the effect of the reclassification in each affected line in the statement of earnings. For AOCI reclassification items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net earnings, a cross reference to other required U.S. GAAP disclosures is required. This information may be provided either in the notes or parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports net earnings as long as all the information is disclosed in a single location. However, an entity is prohibited from providing this information parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports net earnings if it has items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net earnings. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements; however, the Company provided additional disclosures as required by ASU 2013-02 in Note C, "Comprehensive Income," in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. | |
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, "Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity," which applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net earnings when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity, or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity. The guidance requires that a parent deconsolidate a subsidiary or derecognize a group of assets that is a business if the parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest in that group of assets, and resolves the diversity in practice for the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages involving a foreign entity. The guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. | |
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," which requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (“NOL”) or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is not anticipating adoption of this update to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. |
