QUIXOTE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. The June 30, 1995 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, adjusted for the reclassification of assets and liabilities related to the discontinued operations discussed in Note 2 below, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the results for interim periods. The current period results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately will be reported for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 1996. 2. On September 28, 1995, the measurement date, the Company adopted a plan to dispose of Integrated Information Services, Inc., a document imaging and computerized litigation support company, and Litigation Sciences, Inc., a litigation consulting firm, and to abandon the concept of Legal Technologies, Inc. as a full service provider to the legal community. As a result, the Company recorded a loss during the first quarter consisting of $2,213,000 (net of income tax benefits of $1,475,000) for the estimated operating losses of these businesses from the measurement date through the estimated date of disposition and $8,700,000 (net of income tax benefits of $5,800,000) for the estimated loss on their disposition. In addition, losses of $1,087,000 (net of income tax benefits of $725,000) were incurred by these businesses during the first quarter until the measurement date (September 28, 1995). These results are presented as discontinued operations in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations for the six months ended December 31, 1995. The previously issued Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 1994 have been restated to reflect those results as discontinued operations. Net sales for the discontinued businesses for the six months ending December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $7,413,000 and $9,260,000 respectively. Net sales for the discontinued businesses for the quarter ending December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $3,753,000 and $4,386,000 respectively. The assets of these businesses consist principally of accounts receivable, inventories and equipment, and net of their liabilities have been reflected separately in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. In connection with the decision to discontinue these businesses, the Company violated certain covenants of its Revolving Credit Facility including the tangible net worth and leverage covenants as of September 30, 1995. In November 1995, the Company was granted an increase in its revolving credit facility to $70 million from $60 million and received a waiver for all its covenant violations. The revolving credit agreement was also amended to adjust certain covenants for future periods. 3. In December 1995, Disc Manufacturing, Inc. settled a lawsuit with three former employees. The cost of the settlement, including legal fees was $584,000 and was expensed in the Company's second quarter. Subsequent Events: - -------------------- 4. On January 5, 1996, Energy Absorption Systems, Inc., and Quantic Industries, Inc. (Quantic), agreed to extend certain provisions of the "Surviving Stockholder Agreement" from January 6, 1996, to February 29, 1996. This agreement with certain stockholders of Quantic, among other things, grants those stockholders a right to require Energy Absorption to purchase all of their shares (52.5% of the common stock) of Quantic for $8.7 million. 5. On January 10, 1996, Energy Absorption entered into an agreement with Barrier Systems, Inc., to sell and assign all of its rights to certain patents related to the movable traffic barrier system. Energy sold the patents for $1,960,000, which will result in a gain of approximately $350,000, to be recorded in the Company's third quarter of fiscal 1996. 6. On January 25, 1996, Stenograph Corporation sold certain assets of Litigation Sciences, Inc. (LSI) for the assumption of certain liabilities of LSI. The remaining assets and liabilities of LSI retained by Stenograph include accounts receivable and liabilities under certain lease obligations. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CURRENT YEAR-TO-DATE VERSUS PRIOR YEAR-TO-DATE - --------------------------------------------------- The Company's sales for the first six months fiscal 1996 increased 6% to $88,699,000 from $83,849,000 in the same period last year due to revenue growth at Disc Manufacturing, Inc. (DMI). Sales at DMI increased 12% in the six month period to $51,422,000 from $45,873,000 in the same period last year due to strong growth in unit sales of CD-ROM discs. CD-ROM unit sales increased 102% during the six month period from the same period last year. Audio CD unit sales however decreased 16% in the six month period from the same period last year. This decline in audio CD sales was due to the loss of a major customer, BMG Music as discussed below, and also to a general softness in the music industry. As a result of declines in the average unit selling price of these products, CD-ROM sales dollars increased 57% during the six month period and CD audio sales dollars declined 19% from the same period last year. Sales at Energy Absorption for the six months were $22,288,000, level with last year sales of $22,210,000. Sales at Stenograph Corporation decreased 5% in the first six months to $14,989,000 from $15,766,000 in the same period last year. Sales of domestic computer- aided transcription (CAT) hardware and software decreased offset somewhat by an increase in international sales. The gross profit margin in the current six month period decreased to 32.1% from 37.0% in the same period last year due to margin reductions at DMI. DMI's gross profit margin decreased principally as a result of a decrease in the selling prices of its products, particularly CD-ROM products. In addition, DMI's unit costs increased slightly because of additional costs (principally depreciation) due to its plant expansion without sufficient capacity utilization to offset these costs. The Company expects to experience continued pressure on disc selling prices which may have a limiting effect on its gross profit margins. Stenograph Corporation's gross profit margin increased due to production efficiencies resulting in reduced material and labor costs. Energy Absorption's gross profit margin for the current six month period increased slightly due to a change in product mix. Selling and administrative expenses in the current six month period increased slightly to $20,442,000 from $20,278,000 in the same period last year. DMI's selling and administrative expenses increased principally due to an increase in legal expense due to the settlement of a lawsuit (as discussed in footnote 3 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements) and to an increase in CD-ROM selling and marketing expenses as that market expands. Energy Absorption's selling and administrative expenses increased due to increased marketing expenses. Stenograph Corporation's selling and administrative expenses decreased due to the settlement of litigation last year requiring additional expense of $685,000 that was recorded in last years six month period. Research and development expenses in current six month period increased 13% to $1,753,000 compared to $1,547,000 in the same period last year. This was due to an increase in R&D expenditures at Stenograph Corporation related to the development of an update to its Premier Power computer-aided transcription software. This increase in R&D at Stenograph Corporation was offset partially by a decrease in R&D at Energy Absorption as result of, among other things, reduced expenditures on its sewer rehabilitation technology. Interest income in the current six month period was $169,000 compared to $102,000 in the same period last year due to an increase in the rate of interest earned on its $6 million restricted certificate of deposit. Interest expense in the current six month period increased 79% to $3,184,000 from $1,780,000 in the same quarter last year. This was due to the increase in debt to $83,425,000 as of December 31, 1995 compared to $49,000,000 at the same time last year. Other expenses in the current six month period increased to $408,000 compared to $231,000 in the same period last year. During the first quarter, the Company adopted a plan to dispose of Integrated Information Services, Inc., a document imaging and computerized litigation support company and Litigation Sciences, Inc., a litigation consulting firm, and to abandon the concept of Legal Technologies, Inc. as a full service provider to the legal community. As a result, the Company recorded a loss of $12 million during the first quarter consisting of $3.3 million (net of income tax benefits of $2.2 million) for the estimated operating losses of these businesses through the date of disposition and $8.7 million (net of income tax benefits of $5.8 million) for the estimated loss on their disposition. These results are presented as discontinued operations in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The assets of these businesses consist principally of accounts receivables, inventories and equipment and net of their liabilities have been reflected separately in the Company's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. In connection with the decision to discontinue these businesses, the Company violated certain covenants of its Revolving Credit Facility including the tangible net worth and leverage covenants as of September 30, 1995. In November 1995, the Company was granted an increase in its revolving credit facility to $70 million from $60 million by its bank group and in addition, received a waiver for all its covenant violations. In addition, the bank group amended the revolving credit agreement adjusting these covenants for future periods. Also during the period, DMI was notified by BMG Music, a major customer, that it is terminating its purchase agreement with DMI effective December 31, 1995. In fiscal 1995 BMG accounted for 38% of DMI's total sales. DMI is currently trying to replace this business but has only been partially successful to date due to, among other things, the current overcapacity in the industry. To the extent DMI is unsuccessful replacing this business, profits and cash flows may be materially affected. CURRENT YEAR QUARTER VERSUS PRIOR YEAR QUARTER - ---------------------------------------------- The Company's sales for the second quarter of fiscal 1996 increased 3% to $43,697,000 from $42,573,000 in the same quarter last year due to revenue growth at Energy Absorption Systems and Disc Manufacturing, Inc. Sales at Energy Absorption for the current quarter increased 9% to $10,074,000 from $9,283,000 in the same quarter last year due to an increase in sales of its GREAT (TM) product, offset somewhat by a decrease in sales of the TMA (truck-mounted attenuator). Sales at DMI increased 4% in the current quarter to $25,993,000 from $25,032,000 in the same quarter last year due to strong growth in unit sales of CD-ROM discs. CD-ROM unit sales increased 97% during the quarter from the same period last year. Audio CD unit sales however decreased 34% in the quarter from the same quarter last year. As a result of declines in the average unit selling price of these products, CD-ROM sales dollars increased 59% during the quarter and CD audio sales dollars declined 37% from the same period last year. Sales at Stenograph Corporation decreased 8% in the current quarter to $7,630,000 from $8,258,000 in the same period last year. Sales of lower margin third party computer hardware including computers and related peripherals continued to decline. Also contributing to the sales decline at Stenograph was a decline in it's Stentura product line. The gross profit margin in the current quarter decreased to 30.4% from 36.1% in the same period last year due to margin reductions at DMI. DMI's gross profit margin decreased as a result of a decrease in the selling prices of its products, particularly CD-ROM products. In addition, DMI's unit costs increased because of additional costs (mainly depreciation) due to its plant expansion without sufficient capacity utilization to offset these costs. The Company expects to experience continued pressure on disc selling prices and lower than expected volumes which may have a limiting effect on its gross profit margins. Stenograph Corporation's gross profit margin increased due to production efficiencies resulting in reduced material and labor costs. Energy Absorption's gross profit margin for the quarter increased due to a change in product mix. Selling and administrative expenses in the current quarter decreased 5% to $10,110,000 from $10,622,000 in the same quarter last year due to Stenograph Corporation. Stenograph Corporation's selling and administrative expenses decreased due to the settlement of litigation last year requiring an additional expense accrual of $685,000 that was recorded in last years second quarter. Offsetting this decrease in selling and administrative expenses, DMI's selling and administrative expenses increased principally due an increase in legal expense due to the settlement of a lawsuit (as discussed in footnote 3 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements) and to the increase in CD-ROM selling and marketing expenses as that market expands. Energy Absorption's selling and administrative expenses also increased due to increased marketing expenses. Research and development expenses in current quarter increased 10% to $875,000 from $798,000 in the same period last year. This was due to an increase in R&D expenditures at Stenograph Corporation related to the development of an update to its Premier Power computer-aided transcription software. This increase in R&D at Stenograph Corporation was offset partially by a decrease in R&D at Energy Absorption as result of, among other things, reduced expenditures on its sewer rehabilitation technology. Interest income in the current quarter was $92,000 compared to $55,000 in the same quarter last year due to an increase in the rate of interest earned on its $6 million restricted certificate of deposit. Interest expense in the current quarter increased 77% to $1,627,000 from $917,000 in the same quarter last year. This was due to the increase in debt to $83,425,000 as of December 31, 1995 compared to $49,000,000 at the same time last year. Other expenses in the current quarter increased to $242,000 from $125,000 last year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- The Company has cash of $2,162,000 and additional funds of $6,550,000 available under its bank arrangements at December 31, 1995. Operating activities were a source of cash for the Company for the first six months of fiscal 1996 providing cash of $7,876,000. Cash of $21,396,000 was used during the six month period for investing activities. The Company's primary investing activity was the purchase of $21,941,000 in plant and equipment. These capital expenditures were made primarily at DMI for the final phase of its expansion program to increase its capacity to 200 million gross discs annually. Financing activities provided cash of $13,589,000 principally from borrowings under the Company's bank facilities offset somewhat by the payment of a semiannual cash dividend to its shareholders. During the balance of fiscal 1996, the Company anticipates the need for approximately $4,000,000 in cash for capital expenditures. In addition, the Company may have a need for $8.7 million in the event that certain shareholders of Quantic Industries, Inc. exercise their right to put their Quantic shares to the Company. The Company may also need additional cash as it considers acquiring additional businesses that complement its existing operating segments. Also, each of the Company's operating segments will require additional investments in working capital to maintain growth. These expenditures will be financed either through cash generated from operations or from borrowings available under the Company's revolving credit facility. The Company may also consider divesting its remaining legal businesses to generate additional cash. The Company believes its cash generated from operations and funds available under its existing credit facility or increases in its credit facility are sufficient for all planned operating and capital requirements.
