Results of Operations
Revenue increased to $93.4 million in the second quarter of 1999 from $72.3 million in the second quarter of 1998, and increased to $179.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from
$142.8 million for the comparable period of 1998. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to record unit sales, with a 36 percent and 39 percent increase, respectively, in units sold in the
quarter and year to date periods ended June 30, 1999, respectively, compared to the same periods of 1998. Demand was particularly strong for In Focus' line of ultraportable personal projectors,
which were introduced during the first quarter of 1999. The ultraportable segment represented 74 percent of units sold in the second quarter of 1999. Due to strong demand and a limited supply of
Digital Micromirror Devices ("DMDs"), pricing on the ultraportable products remained relatively stable during the second quarter of 1999 while pricing on the conference room and fixed installation
projectors experienced typical industry pricing declines of 5 to 10 percent. In Focus expects the supply of DMDs to remain constrained during the third quarter of 1999*. The DMDs are provided by a
single, domestic supplier for which In Focus has no ready second source. In Focus end-of-lifed the LP225, LP425 and the LP725 during the first quarter of 1999 and the LP1000 during the second quarter
of 1999.
Three new seven pound personal projectors, all utilizing Texas Instruments' Digital Light Processing technology, began shipping in the first quarter of 1999:
- 1.
-
the LP400, with 700 lumens and a suggested list price of $3,429;
- 2.
-
the LP425Z, a full-featured 900 lumen SVGA projector with a suggested list price of $5,999; and
- 3.
-
the LP435Z, a full-featured 1,000 lumen XGA projector with a suggested list price of $6,999.
In the second quarter of 1999, In Focus began shipping the DP900 and DP1100 to Kodak. The DP900 and DP1100 are OEM versions of the LP425Z and LP435Z, respectively.
Two new conference room projectors began shipping in the first quarter of 1999:
- 1.
-
the LP750, an 800 lumen XGA projector that is the quietest projector in the industry; and
- 2.
-
the LP1200, a 1200 lumen XGA projector that is suitable for both conference room and fixed installation use because of its advanced feature set which includes dual source display.
In Focus also began shipping the LS700, its first entry into the home theatre market with exceptional video quality at a competitive price, and the LP740B, a 1,500 lumen SXGA projector that addresses
the needs of those requiring very high resolution and brightness for medical and engineering applications, in the first quarter of 1999.
During the first two quarters of 1999, International sales represented 39 percent of total revenue, including 9 percent from Asia Pacific countries, compared to 45 percent international revenue,
including 10 percent from Asia Pacific countries, in the first two quarters of 1998.
Because there are multiple competitive products for In Focus' resellers to choose from, In Focus does not typically operate with a large backlog. Instead, In Focus' customers generally order products
for immediate delivery and the Company must respond to
7
competitive prices and ship the product quickly or risk losing the order. However, as a result of strong demand for In Focus' LP400, LP330, LP425Z and LP435Z and supply constraints for certain
components, at June 30, 1999, the Company had backlog of approximately $74.8 million, compared to approximately $15.9 million at June 30, 1998 and $15.2 million at December 31,
1998. Given current supply and demand estimates, it is anticipated that a majority of the current backlog will turn over by the end of the third quarter of 1999.* However, should In Focus not receive
components as forecasted, some of the backlog orders at June 30, 1999 may be canceled and therefore not result in revenue for In Focus. There is minimal seasonal influence relating to In Focus'
order backlog. The stated backlog is not necessarily indicative of sales for any future period nor is a backlog any assurance that In Focus will realize a profit from filling the orders.
In Focus achieved gross margins of 26.3 percent in the first six months of 1999, with 28.3 percent achieved in the second quarter of 1999, compared to 20.3 percent in the first six months of 1998 and
20.7 percent in the second quarter of 1998. This was the fifth consecutive quarter of margin improvement for In Focus. The increases in the gross margin percentage are primarily a result of the volume
shipment of new products that have higher gross margins than mature products and cost savings associated with the in-house manufacturing of the image engines for the personal projectors. In addition,
prices for ultraportable products were relatively stable during the second quarter of 1999 due to
strong demand and constrained supply for certain components. Price decreases in the first half of 1998 were significantly higher and occurred more rapidly than anticipated.
Marketing and sales expense increased to $12.3 million and $22.6 million, respectively (13.2 percent and 12.6 percent of revenue, respectively) for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1999 compared to $10.2 million and $21.4 million, respectively (14.1 percent and 15.0 percent of revenue, respectively) for the comparable periods of 1998. The increase is primarily a
result of increased spending to drive demand for new products, for tradeshows, a worldwide sales meeting and increased channel program expenses related to increased revenue.
Engineering expense was $5.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively (5.8 percent and 5.8 percent of revenue, respectively) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 compared to
$4.7 million and $10.7 million, respectively (6.5 percent and 7.5 percent of revenue, respectively) for the comparable periods of 1998. The decrease in the year to date amount is primarily a result of
decreased average headcount relative to the first half of 1998, partially offset by modest increases in In Focus' investment in advanced development projects.
General and administrative expense increased to $2.2 million and $4.2 million, respectively (2.4 percent and 2.4 percent of revenue, respectively) for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1999 compared to $1.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively (2.3 percent and 2.7 percent of revenue, respectively) for the comparable periods of 1998. The increase is primarily a
result of increased headcount, bonus accruals and bad debt reserve accruals.
Income from operations was $6.5 million and $10.1 million, respectively (6.9 percent and 5.6 percent of revenue, respectively) for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1999
compared to loss from operations of $1.6 million and $6.8 million, for the
comparable
8
periods of 1998, primarily as a result of increased revenue and gross margins as discussed above.
Income taxes through June 30, 1999 are based on an estimated rate of 28.4 percent, which decreased from 30.1 percent in the first six months of 1998. The decrease from the first six months of
1998 is primarily a result of larger benefits related to the Company's foreign sales corporation and research and development activities in relation to the amount of income or loss. In Focus expects
an effective tax rate of approximately 30 to 32 percent for the remainder of 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 1999 working capital was $126.3 million, including $46.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $4.1 million of marketable securities. In the first half of 1999, working capital
increased by $6.8 million and the current ratio remained relatively stable at 4.2:1 at June 30, 1999 compared to 4.3:1 at December 31, 1998.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $19.4 million primarily due to cash provided by operations of $17.9 million and the net maturity of $5.6 million of marketable securities, offset by $3.4 million
used for the purchase of property and equipment.
Accounts receivable decreased $6.7 million to $72.0 million at June 30, 1999 compared to $78.7 million at December 31, 1998, primarily due to more linear product shipments in the second
quarter of 1999 compared to the fourth quarter of 1998. As a result, day's sales outstanding decreased to 69 days at June 30, 1999 compared to 86 days at March 31, 1999 and 80 days at
December 31, 1998. At June 30,
1999, 74.5 percent of In Focus' accounts receivable were current, 18.1 percent were 30 days or less past due and 7.4 percent were beyond 30 days past due. In Focus believes it is adequately reserved
for potential bad debts*.
Inventories increased $2.4 million to $33.7 million at June 30, 1999 compared to $31.3 million at December 31, 1998, primarily due to an increase in raw materials, offset by decreases in
work-in-process and finished goods. Annualized inventory turns were approximately 7.6 times for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 compared to approximately 8.5 times for the fourth quarter of
1998 on an annualized basis.
The $3.4 million of purchases of property, plant and equipment in the first six months of 1999 were primarily for new product tooling, engineering design and test equipment and information systems
infrastructure. Total expenditures for property and equipment in 1999 are expected to total approximately $8.2 million, primarily for new product tooling, engineering equipment and information systems
infrastructure*.
Year 2000
Products
In Focus has determined that all past and current products ("Products"), including LitePro and LP projectors, PanelBook, PowerView, SmartView and PC Viewer projection panels, and LiteShow II and
LiteShow Pro presentation players, are Year 2000-compliant. However, with respect to the LiteShow Pro presentation player, In Focus does not make any representation as to Microsoft Windows software
installed thereon. In the fourth quarter of
9
1998, In Focus made additional modifications to its systems based upon new recommendations provided by its technology vendors.
Information Systems
In Focus utilizes a packaged application strategy for all critical information systems functions. By the third quarter of 1998 all enterprise information system components were current with all Year
2000 updates and changes required by the manufacturers. This includes enterprise software, operating systems, networking components, application and data servers, PC hardware, and core office
automation software.
Various component tests have been conducted to verify full Year 2000 operational compliance. This process uncovered additional year 2000 issues that have been resolved jointly with In Focus'
technology vendors. Additionally, In Focus' vendors are revising their updates and recommendations as other companies report issues to them. In Focus expects this process to be ongoing as more
companies conduct their testing and provide feedback to the technology vendors.
In addition to the information system component testing, In Focus has conducted a system wide test, to include all components from the desktop to the data center, to ensure that all of the compliant
components can function properly as a whole. This full integration test was completed in March 1999. The focus of these tests was to ensure that In Focus' business processes run end-to-end with
no Year 2000 errors or issues. Errors were found and corrected during this testing process. At the conclusion of
testing in March 1999, there were no outstanding year 2000 issues in the software. In Focus will continue to perform testing and communicate regularly with its technology vendors to keep
abreast of any year 2000 developments.
In Focus' packaged application strategy has allowed it to keep its technology on maintenance contracts with its suppliers. Year 2000 upgrades to these technologies are covered under the maintenance
contracts and represent no additional spending. Application upgrade and technology retirement intervals are not accelerated as a result of the year 2000 issue. The packaged application strategy,
maintenance contracts, upgrade and technology retirement intervals have been in place for the past four years. At this time, In Focus foresees no material incremental spending for the year 2000
issue*.
Like all U.S. businesses, In Focus will be at risk from external infrastructure failures that could arise from year 2000 failures. It is not clear that electrical power, telephone and computer
networks, for example, will be fully functional across the nation in the year 2000. Investigation and assessment of infrastructures, like the nation's power grid, is beyond the scope and resources of
In Focus. Investors should use their own awareness of the issues in the nation's infrastructure to make ongoing infrastructure risk assessments and their potential impact to a company's performance.
Supplier Base
In Focus has begun a year 2000 supplier audit program. It has contacted all of its critical suppliers to inform them of its year 2000 expectations, and a request has been made for each vendor's
compliance program. Based on the results of this audit program, In Focus will
discontinue utilizing certain vendors prior to year-end. Certain critical
suppliers have not yet
10
demonstrated that they will be year 2000 compliant prior to year-end. In Focus is considering second sourcing or stockpiling certain components prior to year-end to help ensure adequate supply from
suppliers who have not confirmed year 2000 compliance.
It should be noted that there have been predictions of failures of key components in the transportation infrastructure due to the year 2000 problem. It is possible that there could be delays in rail,
over-the-road and air shipments due to failure in transportation control systems. Investigation and validation of the world's transportation infrastructure is beyond the scope and the resources of In
Focus. Investors should use their own awareness of the issues in the transportation infrastructure to make ongoing infrastructure risk assessments and their potential impact to a company's
performance.
Resellers
In Focus has surveyed its resellers regarding year 2000 compliance. Several critical resellers have not demonstrated that they will be year 2000 compliant by September 30, 1999. In Focus
intends to discontinue certain rebates and spiffs and only ship COD in the fourth quarter for noncompliant resellers.
Contingency Plan
In Focus is developing a contingency plan in regard to its internal systems, supplier issues, reseller issues and other more global infrastructure issues. Such plans include the following:
-
-
Stopping operations on December 29, 1999 in order to be able to close the books prior to midnight on December 31, 1999;
-
-
Developing manual workarounds for all critical automated processes;
-
-
Downloading and printing of critical data and reports by December 30, 1999;
-
-
Creating specific plans of action for dealing with critical non-compliant suppliers and resellers; and
-
-
Executing critical operations, like payroll, prior to December 31, 1999.
In Focus intends to conduct a test of its contingency plans prior to year-end.
New Accounting Pronouncement
In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 137"). SFAS 137 is an amendment to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS 137 establishes accounting and reporting standards for all derivative
instruments. SFAS 137 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In Focus does not currently have any derivative instruments and, accordingly, does not expect the adoption of
SFAS 137 to have an impact on its financial position or results of operations.
