Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements - Unaudited
(tabular amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars except share and per share amounts)
Note 1 - Accounting Policies
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada applied on a consistent basis with CE Franklin Ltd.’s (the “Company”) annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, with the exception of policies relating to financial instruments, capital disclosures and inventories as noted below. The disclosures provided below are incremental to those included in the annual consolidated financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Section 1535 – Capital Disclosures, Section 3862 – Financial Instruments – Disclosures and Section 3863 – Financial Instruments – Presentation. The standards establish presentation guidelines for financial instruments and deal with their classification, as well as providing readers of the financial statements with information pertinent to the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital.
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Section 3031 – Inventories. The standard establishes the accounting treatment for inventories and provides guidance on the determination of cost and subsequent recognition of expenses. The adoption of Section 3031 did not impact the determination of inventory costs and expense recorded by the Company. Inventories consisting primarily of goods purchased for resale are valued at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. Inventory obsolescence expense was recognized in the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2008 of $90,000 and $326,000 respectively (2007 – -$25,000 and $255,000). As at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 the Company had recorded reserves for inventory obsolescence of $2.1 million and $1.8 million respectively.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented; all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The Company’s sales typically peak in the first quarter when drilling activity is at its highest levels. They then decline through the second and third quarters, rising again in the fourth quarter when preparation for the new drilling season commences. Similarly, net working capital levels are typically at seasonally high levels at the end of the first quarter, declining in the second and third quarters, and then rising again in the fourth quarter.
Note 2 – Share Data
At June 30, 2008, the Company had 18,283,238 common shares and 1,325,638 options outstanding to acquire common shares at a weighted average exercise price of $5.83 per common share, of which 606,815 options were vested and exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $3.80 per common share.
a) Stock options
Option activity for each of the six month periods ended June 30 was as follows:

There were no options granted during the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007. The fair value of the options granted during the six month period ended June 30, 2008 was $274,000 (June 30, 2007- $521,000) and were estimated as at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions:

Stock option compensation expense recorded in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 was $180,000 (2007 - $117,000) and $350,000 (2007- $235,000), respectively.
b) Restricted share units
The Company has Restricted Share unit (“RSU”) and Deferred Share Unit (“DSU”) plans (collectively the “RSU Plans”), where by RSU’s and DSU’s are granted which entitle the participant, at the Company’s option, to receive either a common share or cash equivalent value in exchange for a vested unit. The vesting period for RSU’s is three years from the grant date. DSU’s vest on the date of grant. Compensation expense related to the units granted is recognized over the vesting period based on the fair value of the units at the date of the grant and is recorded to compensation expense and contributed surplus. The contributed surplus balance is reduced as the vested units are exchanged for either common shares or cash.

The Company purchases its common shares on the open market to satisfy restricted share unit obligations through an independent trust. The trust is considered to be a variable interest entity and is consolidated in the Company’s financial statements with the number and cost of shares held in trust, reported as a reduction of capital stock. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008, 25,000 and 100,000 common shares were acquired, respectively, by the trust (2007 – 15,200 common shares for both the three and six month periods) at a cost of $227,000 for the three month period and $723,000 for the six month period (2007 - $173,000).

As at June 30, 2008, income taxes payable are $243,000 (December 31 2007 – Income taxes receivable included in other current assets were $848,000).
b)
Future income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purpose. Significant components of future income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

The Company believes it is more likely than not that all future income tax assets will be realized.
Note 4- Capital Management
The Company’s primary source of capital is its shareholders equity and cash flow from operating activities before net changes in non-cash working capital balances. The Company augments these capital sources with a $60 million, 364 day secured bank operating facility which is used to finance its net working capital and general corporate requirements. The bank operating facility is arranged through a syndicate of three banks and matures in July 2009. The Company’s bank operating facility limits its annual average debt to EBITDA ratio to 2.25 times.
As at June 30, 2008 this ratio was 1.2 times (December 31, 2007 – 1.4 times). The maximum amount available to borrow under this facility is subject to a borrowing base formula applied to accounts receivable and inventories, and a covenant restricting the Company's debt to 2.25 times trailing 12 month earnings before interest, amortization and taxes. As at June 30, 2008, the maximum amount available to be borrowed under this facility was $60 million. In management’s opinion, the Company’s available borrowing capacity under its bank operating facility and ongoing cash flow from operations, are sufficient to resource its anticipated contractual commitments. The facility contains certain other restrictive covenants, which the Company was in compliance with as at June 30, 2008.

a)
Fair Values
The Company’s financial instruments recognized on the consolidated balance sheet consist of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, bank operating loan, long term debt and obligations under capital leases. The fair values of these financial instruments, excluding the bank operating loan, long term debt and obligations under capital leases, approximate their carrying amounts due to their short- term maturity. At June 30, 2008, the fair value of the bank operating loan, long term debt and obligations under capital leases approximated their carrying values due to their floating interest rate nature and short term maturity.
b)
Credit Risk
A substantial portion of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is with customers in the oil and gas industry and is subject to normal industry credit risks.
c)
Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in the Canadian prime interest rate which can impact its borrowing costs. The Company purchases certain products in US dollars and sells such products to its customer typically priced in Canadian dollars. As a result, fluctuations in the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar can result in foreign exchange gains and losses.
d)
Risk Management
From time to time the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage its foreign exchange market risk by fixing the value of its liabilities and future commitments. As at June 30, 2008, the Company had contracted to purchase US $6.0 million at fixed exchange rates maturing in 2008. The fair market value of the contracts are nominal.
