MEDICAL ACTION INDUSTRIES INC.
JUNE 30, 2014
(Unaudited)
Note 1. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Medical Action Industries Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, or “ourselves”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
A summary of our significant accounting policies is identified in Note 1 “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Users of financial information produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the notes contained in the 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K when reviewing interim financial results. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies or to the assumptions and estimates involved in applying these policies. The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All dollar amounts presented in our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands, except share and per share data.
Note 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
The preparation of consolidated annual and quarterly financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We have made a number of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements. We can give no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. Some of the more significant estimates include allowances for trade rebates and doubtful accounts, realizability of inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, pensions and other postretirement benefits and environmental and litigation matters. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Note 1 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014.
Note 3. | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, which amends the guidance in Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 205, Presentation of Financial Statements as it relates to reporting discontinued operations. The revised guidance raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the revised definition of a discontinued operation. This amended guidance is to be applied prospectively and is effective for reporting periods (interim and annual) beginning after December 15, 2014, for public companies, with early adoption permitted. The implementation of the amended accounting guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, which supersedes the revenue recognition guidance in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. The new guidance clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes the most current revenue recognition guidance. This amended guidance is effective retrospectively for reporting periods (interim and annual) beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Note 4. | Discontinued Operations |
On March 12, 2014, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with an affiliate of Inteplast Group, Ltd. for the sale of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Medegen Medical Products, LLC, and certain other assets which comprised the Company’s Patient Care business unit. The Company retained the cash, accounts receivable and all liabilities associated with the business unit except for an environmental liability. On June 2, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its Patient Care business unit for gross proceeds of $78,628, subject to customary post-closing adjustments, and recorded a preliminary pre-tax gain of $18,873 ($11,220 net of tax) from the sale. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has recorded a post closing adjustment of $1,639 as a receivable due from buyer related to the determination of the ending inventory balance. Such determination is subject to review and acceptance by the buyer. Any disputes with respect to the final inventory balance would be subject to arbitration in accordance with the purchase agreement.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company has also recorded a payable of $3,309 to the buyer for trade rebates related to sales of the Patient Care business unit prior to June 2, 2014. Included in accounts receivable at June 30, 2014 is $2,635 of advanced rebates expected to be refunded to the Company by certain distributors as a result of the sale of the Patient Care business unit.

On May 17, 2013, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as borrower and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender. The New Credit Agreement provides for a maximum borrowing capacity of $65,000 consisting of the following loans: (1) a $11,505 secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) fully drawn by the Company on May 17, 2013, (2) $5,000 in unsecured delayed draw term loans (collectively, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”) and (3) up to $53,495 in revolving loans (collectively, the “Revolving Loans”), which may be reduced by the amount of any outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans drawn by the Company. The proceeds from the New Credit Agreement were used to repay a prior credit agreement.
The Revolving Loans will be used to finance the working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company and for permitted acquisitions. The Term Loan and Revolving Loan mature on May 17, 2018. The commitments with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Loans terminate on May 17, 2015 and any Delayed Draw Term Loans drawn by the Company also mature on May 17, 2015. The Term Loan amortizes in consecutive monthly installments, each in the principal amount of $137, commencing June 1, 2013. Any Delayed Draw Term Loan drawn by the Company will amortize in consecutive monthly installments, each in the principal amount equal to the result of (1) the original principal amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loan divided by (2) the number of months remaining from the date the Delayed Draw Term Loan was drawn until May 17, 2015. Any undrawn commitments under the Delayed Draw Term Loans will be reduced by $208 on each calendar month, commencing June 1, 2013.
In the event the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan exceeds the sum of (1) a specified percentage of the value of real property (calculated at least twice during the term of the New Credit Agreement) and (2) a specified percentage of the value of equipment (calculated at least once per calendar year), we will be required to prepay the excess. The Revolving Loans are subject to a borrowing base such that the total outstanding Revolving Loans may not exceed specified percentages of the value of eligible receivables and finished goods, raw materials, work-in-process and in-transit inventory, all calculated at least monthly. In the event the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans under the New Credit Agreement exceeds this borrowing base, the Company will be required to prepay the excess.
Term Loans outstanding under the New Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the election of the Company, (1) LIBOR Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00%, depending on the Average Access Availability (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) at the time of calculation, or (2) Base Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.00%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation. Revolving Loans outstanding under the New Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the election of the Company, (i) LIBOR Rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation, or (ii) Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.50%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation. Additionally, the Company is required to pay an unused line fee at a rate per annum ranging from 0.375% to 0.50% on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Loan commitments of the Lender during the period for which the payment is made, payable monthly in arrears. If drawn, Delayed Draw Term Loans outstanding under the New Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the election of the Company, (1) LIBOR Rate plus a margin ranging from 4.25% to 4.75%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation, or (2) Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 3.25% to 3.75%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation.
During fiscal 2015, the average interest rate on the Term Loan under the New Credit Agreement approximated 2.24% and the average interest rate on the Revolving Loans under the New Credit Agreement approximated 2.67%.
Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all the assets of, and are fully guaranteed by, the Company and its subsidiaries. The New Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, including, among others, covenants limiting our ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, guarantee obligations, sell assets, make loans and investments, enter into merger and acquisition transactions, and declare or make dividends. The Company committed to certain post-closing conditions, including providing monthly financial statements, annual updates of financial projections, and the filing of a mortgage on the Company’s Brentwood, New York corporate headquarters. If the Company’s Excess Availability (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) falls below a specified amount, the Company will become subject to financial covenants relating to a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00, measured on a month-end basis. If the Company draws a Delayed Draw Term Loan, the Company will be required to comply with a maximum leverage financial ratio covenant ranging from 3:00 to 1:00 to 3.25 to 1:00, measured on a month-end basis.
On June 2, 2014, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement and Guaranty and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), among the Company, as borrower, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender (the “Lender”).
The Amendment amended the terms of the New Credit Agreement that the Company entered into with the Lender on May 17, 2013, as follows: (a) the Lender’s maximum total loan commitments under the Credit Agreement were reduced from $65,000 to $55,000, (b) provided no Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) occurs and is continuing, the unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) that the Company is required to pay the Lender, has been capped at 0.375% of the daily unused amount of the revolving loan commitments of the Lender during the period for which the payment is made, through and including December 31, 2014, and (c) solely for purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee, the aggregate amount of the Lender’s revolving loan commitments was deemed to be the lesser of $30,000 and the actual aggregate amount of the Lender’s revolving loan commitments.
As a result of the sale of the Patient Care business unit on June 2, 2014, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding on both the Revolving and Term loans under the New Credit Agreement.
During the three months ending June 30, 2014 the Company charged $197, related to unamortized financing costs related to the Term Loan, to interest expense. The remaining unamortized financing costs associated with the Revolving Loans and will be amortized financing costs over the remaining life of the New Credit Agreement using the straight-line interest method.

The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of federal, state and local taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date provision for income taxes with the effective tax rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. The Company’s annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2015 excluding discrete items is estimated to be 40.4% based upon the Company’s anticipated earnings.
For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $11, which consisted of federal, state and local taxes, including a discrete item of $10 related to the accrual of interest for uncertain tax positions under ASC 740 – Income taxes (“ASC 740”). For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded a tax provision of $70.
Note 12. | Earnings (Loss) Per Share |
Basic earnings (loss) per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without consideration of potential common shares. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are based on the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding. The calculation takes into account the shares that may be issued upon exercise of stock options, reduced by the shares that may be repurchased with the funds received from the exercise, based on the average prices during the periods. Excluded from the calculation of earnings (loss) per share are options to purchase 1,361,310 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 1,312,231 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2013, as their inclusion would not have been dilutive.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share computations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Note 14. | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
Due to their maturities and/or variable interest rates, certain financial instruments have fair values that approximate their carrying values. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade payables and our outstanding debt under the Company’s term loan and revolving credit facility. The book value and the fair value of the Company’s capital lease obligation amounted to $13,416 and $15,479, respectively as of June 30, 2014. The fair value was determined based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate and is considered a Level 3 input.
Note 15. | Business Concentrations and Major Customers |
We manufacture and distribute disposable medical products principally to medical product distributors and hospitals located throughout the United States. We perform credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and do not require collateral. Receivables are generally due within 30 – 90 days. Credit losses relating to customers have historically been minimal and within management’s expectations.
Sales to Owens & Minor, Inc. and Cardinal Health Inc., (the “Distributors”) accounted for approximately 45.2% and 19.6% of net sales, respectively for three months ended June 30, 2014. Although the Distributors may be deemed in a technical sense to be major purchasers of our products, they typically serve as a distributor between the end user and ourselves and do not make significant purchases for their own account. We, therefore, do not believe it is appropriate to categorize the Distributors as customers for the purpose of evaluating concentrations.
A significant portion of our raw materials are purchased from China, which gives rise to risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates between the Chinese Yuan and the U.S. Dollar. To mitigate our exposure to this risk, we attempt to denominate our transactions in foreign locations in U.S. Dollars. While all of such purchases are denominated in U.S. Dollars, to the extent that the U.S. Dollar decreases in value relative to the Chinese Yuan, our cost of sales may increase and our gross profit may decrease. We do not currently hold or issue foreign exchange contracts or other derivative instruments to hedge these exposures.
The Company is a party to a product liability lawsuit arising out of the conduct of its ordinary course of business. A global settlement of claims has been approved by the court and management expects a settlement agreement to be executed by the plaintiffs. While execution of the settlement agreement by the plaintiffs cannot be predicted with certainty, the ultimate liability under such product liability lawsuit is covered by the Company’s insurance and management does not expect that the court approved amount of the settlement or any other ultimate liability, if any, arising out of such product liability lawsuit, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
On June 24, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with a wholly owned subsidiary of Owens & Minor, Inc. (“Owens & Minor”) and Mongoose Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Owens & Minor, under which Owens & Minor will acquire all outstanding shares of the Company (the “Merger”). Owens & Minor and the Company currently expect to complete the Merger in the fourth quarter of 2014, subject to receipt of the required stockholder and regulatory approvals and to the satisfaction or waiver of the other conditions to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Two putative stockholder class action lawsuits challenging the Merger have been filed, both in Suffolk County Supreme Court in New York and have been consolidated under the caption In re Medical Action Industries Inc. Shareholders Litigation (the “Shareholder Lawsuit”). The Shareholder Lawsuit names the Company, certain of the Company’s current directors and officers, Owens & Minor and Merger Sub as defendants. The Shareholder Lawsuit has been brought by purported stockholders of the Company, both individually and on behalf of a putative class consisting of public stockholders of the Company. The Shareholder Lawsuit generally alleges, among other things, that certain of the directors and officers of the Company breached their fiduciary duties to stockholders of the Company by agreeing to a transaction with inadequate consideration and unfair terms pursuant to an inadequate process. The Shareholder Lawsuit seeks, in general, and among other things, (i) injunctive relief enjoining the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) in the event the Merger is consummated, rescission or an award of rescissory damages, (iii) an award of plaintiffs’ costs, including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees, (iv) an accounting by the defendants to plaintiffs for all damages caused by the defendants and (v) such further relief as the court deems just and proper.
The Shareholder Lawsuit is at a preliminary stage. The Company and the other defendants believe that the Shareholders Lawsuit is without merit and intend to defend against it vigorously. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Overview
We manufacture and market single-use medical products used principally by acute care facilities within the U.S. We divide our product lines into two markets, Clinical Care and Patient Care. Our Clinical Care market includes custom procedure trays, minor procedure kits and trays, operating room disposables and sterilization products, and dressings and surgical sponges. Our Patient Care market includes patient bedside products, containment systems for medical waste and laboratory products.
On March 12, 2014, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with an affiliate of Inteplast Group, Ltd. for the sale of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Medegen Medical Products, LLC, and certain other assets which comprised the Company’s Patient Care business unit. The Company retained the cash, accounts receivable and all liabilities associated with the business unit except for an environmental liability. On June 2, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its Patient Care business unit for gross proceeds of $78,628, subject to customary post-closing adjustments.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company has classified the assets and liabilities subject to the purchase agreement as held for sale and presented the results of operations of the Patient Care business unit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Our growth strategy has included both acquisitions and expansion of existing product lines. In August 2010, we acquired AVID which markets and assembles custom procedure trays. While we had previously made both custom and standard minor procedure kits and trays, the acquisition of AVID significantly expanded our product line offerings within the Clinical Care market, increased our sales team and provided opportunities to cross sell our existing product lines. We have supply agreements with substantially every major GPO and IDN in the country including Novation, Premier and MedAssets. A majority of the acute care facilities that we sell to belong to at least one GPO. The supply agreements awarded to us through these GPOs designate us as a sole-source or multi-source provider for substantially all of our product offerings. The supply agreements with GPOs and IDNs typically have no minimum purchase requirements and terms of one to three years that can be terminated on 90 days’ advance notice. While the acute care facilities associated with the GPOs and IDNs are not obligated to purchase our product offerings, many of these supply agreements have resulted in unit sales growth. Acute care facility orders purchased through our supply agreements with the three largest GPOs in the healthcare industry, Novation, Premier and MedAssets, accounted for $38,559 or 54% of our total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2014.
We source our products from our four production facilities in the U.S. and from foreign suppliers, principally based in China. The principal raw material used in the production of our product lines is cotton. Cotton is purchased by our foreign suppliers and converted into finished products, principally operating room towels and laparotomy sponges. We purchase finished goods that contain approximately 11 million pounds of cotton per year.
The challenging economic environment of the past three years has negatively impacted hospital utilization, placed adverse economic pressure on acute care facilities and fostered volatility in commodity prices. These factors have impacted our revenues, average selling prices and gross profits. We have addressed these conditions by expanding our product lines, investing in our sales and marketing teams, managing our operating costs and differentiating ourselves in the market by emphasizing our ability to add value to our customers by improving their patient outcomes. We remain committed to being a trusted strategic partner to our customers, known for delivering innovative solutions to the healthcare community to improve the quality of care and enhancing patient experiences.
During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we reported net sales of $71,933 and $71,526, respectively from continuing operations. Our net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per diluted share from continuing operations during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $(11) and $(0.00) per share, and $90 and $0.01 per share, respectively.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013:
Net sales during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $71,933 and $71,526, respectively, representing an increase of $407 or less than 1.0%. The increase is primarily attributable to greater domestic market share associated with our custom procedure trays and minor procedure trays product categories. These increases were partially offset by lower domestic market share associated with our operating room products category.
Gross profit was $13,487 during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $13,384 during the three months ended June 30, 2013, representing an increase of $103 or less than 1.0%. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 18.7% during both the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. The increase in gross profit compared to the prior fiscal year was due to an increase in overall sales volume.
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we imported approximately $8,923 of finished goods and certain raw materials from overseas vendors, principally China. Our main imports are operating room products, which include operating room towels and laparotomy sponges, minor procedure kits and trays and surgical instruments used in our minor procedure kits and trays that we do not produce domestically. The products we procure from China-based vendors include cotton as a raw material.
The costs within the global market for cotton, while still volatile, have declined from their peak in March 2011. We do not directly purchase unfinished cotton and convert the material into finished goods; however, cotton is the primary raw material utilized by our vendors in the production of our operating room towels and laparotomy sponges. The volume of cotton included in our products is estimated to be approximately 11 million pounds per annum. Our gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased by $40 due to lower costs of products sourced from overseas vendors.
Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $12,694 and $11,568 during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher compensation-related expenses and higher legal expenses.
Interest expense declined to $793 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as a result of the full paydown of the outstanding debt on June 2, 2014 as compared to $1,656 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was also attributable to a decline in interest rates.
Income tax expense amounted to $11 and $70 during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2014 is higher than the statutory rate primarily due to the tax effect of nondeductible expenses, the Section 199 manufacturing deduction and state and local taxes. The Company estimates its full-year fiscal 2015 effective tax rate to be approximately 40%.
Income from discontinued operations, net of taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $11,957 and $189, respectively. The increase is primarily attributed to $11,220 in net gain on sale in June 2014. Income from discontinued operations for the period from April 1, 2014 until June 2, 2014 (date of sale) was $737 which is an increase from $189 in the prior year. The increase was due to improvements in manufacturing efficiencies, which was partially offset by increases of $563 in resin cost, which is the primary raw material utilized in the manufacture of the products associated with the Patient Care business unit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Borrowing Arrangements
On May 17, 2013, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as borrower and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender. The New Credit Agreement provides for a maximum borrowing capacity of $65,000 consisting of the following loans: (1) a $11,505 secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) fully drawn by the Company on May 17, 2013, (2) $5,000 in unsecured delayed draw term loans (collectively, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”) and (3) up to $53,495 in revolving loans (collectively, the “Revolving Loans”), which may be reduced by the amount of any outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans drawn by the Company. The proceeds from the New Credit Agreement were used to repay a prior credit agreement.
The Revolving Loans can be used to finance the working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company and for permitted acquisitions. The Term Loan and Revolving Loan mature on May 17, 2018. The commitments with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Loans terminate on May 17, 2015 and any Delayed Draw Term Loans drawn by the Company also mature on May 17, 2015. The Term Loan amortized in consecutive monthly installments, each in the principal amount of $137, commencing June 1, 2013. Any Delayed Draw Term Loan drawn by the Company will amortize in consecutive monthly installments, each in the principal amount equal to the result of (1) the original principal amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loan divided by (2) the number of months remaining from the date the Delayed Draw Term Loan was drawn until May 17, 2015. Any undrawn commitments under the Delayed Draw Term Loans will be reduced by $208 on each calendar month, commencing June 1, 2013. Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all the assets of, and are fully guaranteed by, the Company and its subsidiaries as described in Footnote 8 – Credit Facilities and Long – Term Debt.
On June 2, 2014, the Company entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement and Guaranty and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), among the Company, as borrower, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender (the “Lender”).
The Amendment amended the terms of the New Credit Agreement that the Company entered into with the Lender on May 17, 2013, as follows: (a) the Lender’s maximum total loan commitments under the Credit Agreement were reduced from $65,000 to $55,000, (b) provided no Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) occurs and is continuing, the unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) that the Company is required to pay the Lender, has been capped at 0.375% of the daily unused amount of the revolving loan commitments of the Lender during the period for which the payment is made, through and including December 31, 2014, and (c) solely for purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee, the aggregate amount of the Lender’s revolving loan commitments was deemed to be the lesser of $30,000 and the actual aggregate amount of the Lender’s revolving loan commitments.
As a result of the sale of the Patient Care business unit, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding on both the Revolving and Term Loans on June 2, 2014 and recorded all amounts due related to the New Credit Agreement as current as of March 31, 2014.
Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents changed as follows during the three months ended June 30:
| | 2014 | | | 2013 | |
Cash used in operating activities | | $ | (6,193 | ) | | $ | (744 | ) |
Cash provided by (used in) investing activities | | $ | 77,160 | | | $ | (351 | ) |
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities | | $ | (40,167 | ) | | $ | 663 | |
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 30,800 | | | $ | (432 | ) |
Historically, our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have included cash provided by operations and the use of available borrowing facilities while the primary uses of liquidity and capital resources have included acquisitions, capital expenditures and payments on debt.
Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily the result of increases in inventories of $4,504; decreases in accounts payable of $6,892, prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1,973 and accrued expenses of $1,872, which was partially offset by reductions in accounts receivable of $6,229. The decreases in accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were principally due to the sale of the Patient Care business unit. The buyer did not assume any working capital assets and liabilities on the date of the transaction. The increase in inventories is due to the timing of raw material receipts.
Cash provided by investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of $78,424 in proceeds from the sale of the Patient Care business unit, which was partially offset by $1,264 in purchases of property, plant and equipment. Our New Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants but do not limit the amount of capital expenditures per annum. On an annual basis, management expects to make capital expenditures on machinery and equipment to improve efficiencies at our manufacturing facilities.
Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2014 consisted primarily of $40,112 in net payments on our Credit Agreement. The Company paid down its outstanding indebtedness in full using a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Patient Care business unit.
Financial Position
The following table sets forth certain liquidity and capital resources data for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | |
| | (unaudited) | | | | |

Stockholder’s equity | | $ | 112,412 | | | $ | 100,287 | |
Debt to equity ratio | | | 0.12 | | | | 0.53 | |
We are committed to maintaining a strong financial position through maintaining sufficient levels of available liquidity, managing working capital and generating cash flows necessary to meet operating requirements. We believe that anticipated future cash flow from operations, coupled with our cash on hand and available funds under our New Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements for the next twelve months. Although we have borrowing capacity under our New Credit Agreement, have cash on hand and anticipate future cash flow from operations, we may be limited in our ability to allocate funds for purposes such as potential acquisitions, capital expenditures, marketing, development and other general corporate purposes. In addition, we may be limited in our flexibility in planning for or responding to changing conditions in our business and our industry, making us more vulnerable to general economic downturns and adverse developments in our business.
Contractual Obligations
Certain contractual cash obligations and other commercial commitments will impact our short and long-term liquidity. At June 30, 2014, such obligations and commitments are as follows:
| | Total | | | Less than 1 Year | | | 2 – 3 Years | | | 4 - 5 Years | | | After 5 Years | |
Capital lease obligations | | | 26,395 | | | | 1,556 | | | | 3,207 | | | | 3,337 | | | | 18,295 | |
Purchase obligations | | | 10,213 | | | | 10,213 | | | | - | | | | - | | | | - | |
Operating leases | | | 1,732 | | | | 970 | | | | 684 | | | | 78 | | | | - | |
Defined benefit plan payments | | | 862 | | | | 62 | | | | 140 | | | | 265 | | | | 395 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total contractual obligations | | $ | 39,202 | | | $ | 12,801 | | | $ | 4,031 | | | $ | 3,680 | | | $ | 18,690 | |
There are approximately $1,027 of estimated liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits that have been excluded from the contractual obligation table because we could not make a reasonable estimate of when those amounts would become payable.
Related Party Transactions
A current member of our board of directors is currently a minority shareholder of Custom Healthcare Systems (“CHS”), an assembler and packager of Class 1 medical products. CHS is a supplier to our AVID facility located in Toano, Virginia for small kits and trays. They also purchase sterile instruments from our facility located in Arden, North Carolina.
The amounts sold to and purchased from CHS are as follows:
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2014 | | | 2013 | |
| | | | | | |
Sold to CHS | | $ | 245 | | | $ | 213 | |
Purchased from CHS | | | 461 | | | | 437 | |
The following table represents the amounts due from and due to CHS:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a material current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.
We are exposed to market risks, such as changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity pricing risks. The following quantitative and qualitative information is provided about market risks to which we were exposed at June 30, 2014, and from which we may incur future gains or losses. We have not entered, nor do we intend to enter, into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Hypothetical changes in interest rates chosen for the estimated sensitivity analysis below are considered to be reasonable near-term changes generally based on consideration of past fluctuations for this risk category. However, since it is not possible to accurately predict future changes in interest rates, these hypothetical changes may not necessarily be an indicator of probable future fluctuations.
Foreign Currency Risk
A significant portion of our raw materials are purchased from China, which gives rise to risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates between the Chinese Yuan and the U.S. Dollar. To mitigate our exposure to this risk, we attempt to denominate our transactions in foreign locations in U.S. Dollars. While all of such purchases are denominated in U.S. Dollars, to the extent that the U.S. Dollar decreases in value relative to the Chinese Yuan, our cost of sales may increase and our gross profit may decrease. We do not currently hold or issue foreign exchange contracts or other derivative instruments to hedge these exposures.
We currently do not sell a significant portion of our products outside of the U.S., and as such, we do not hedge against foreign currency fluctuations that may impact our sales in foreign countries. If we change our intent with respect to such international investment, we would expect to implement strategies designed to manage those risks in an effort to mitigate the effect of foreign currency fluctuations on our earnings and cash flows.
Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2014, there were no outstanding borrowings under our New Credit Agreement. Term loans outstanding under the New Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our election, (1) LIBOR Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00%, depending on the Average Access Availability (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) at the time of calculation, or (2) Base Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.00%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation. Revolving loans outstanding under the New Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our election, (1) LIBOR Rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation, or (2) Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.50%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation. If drawn, Delayed Draw Term Loans outstanding under the New Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at our election, (1) LIBOR Rate plus a margin ranging from 4.25% to 4.75%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation, or (2) Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 3.25% to 3.75%, depending on the Average Access Availability at the time of calculation.
We have not entered into interest rate hedging arrangements in the past and have no plans to do so. Due to fluctuating balances in the amount outstanding under our New Credit Agreement, we do not believe such arrangements to be cost effective.
Commodity Price Risk
Our exposure to changing commodity prices is somewhat limited since the majority of our raw materials are acquired at posted or market related prices, and sales prices for many of our finished products are at market related prices which are generally in line with industry practice. Although we have not hedged our commodity exposures in the past, we may do so in the future.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we have not made any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We continue to review, document and test our internal control over financial reporting and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business. These efforts may lead to various changes in our internal control over financial reporting.
