NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10- K for the year ended January 5, 1997. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period have been made. The results of operations for the three-month period ended April 5, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future interim periods or for the year ending January 5, 1998. 2. Supplemental Cash Flow Disclosures Supplemental disclosures with respect to cash flow information and non-cash investing and financing activities are as follows: Quarter Ended ______________________ April 5, April 5, 1996 1997 ___________ _________ Interest paid $405 $470 ==== ==== Income taxes paid $572 $251 ==== ==== Business combination accounted for as purchase: Assets acquired $14,830 Liabilities assumed (6,395) Note payable (2,700) Stock issued (1,275) _______ Net cash paid $ 4,460 ======= Note issued and accrued liabilities for litigation settlement $ 3,300 ======= 3. Stockholders' Equity On February 28, 1997, the Company completed a secondary public offering of 1.02 million shares of its common stock. The net proceeds of $23.3 million were used to reduce amounts outstanding under its line of credit. If this secondary offering had been completed as of January 6, 1997, pro forma primary and fully diluted earnings per share would have been $0.38 for the first quarter of fiscal 1997. This computation assumes no interest expense related to the credit line and the issuance of only a sufficient number of shares to eliminate the credit line at the beginning of fiscal 1997. 4. Income Taxes The Company's effective tax rate was 36.0% in the first quarter of 1997 compared to 40.5% in the first quarter of 1996. This decrease was attributable to state tax credits earned as a result of the move to the new headquarters and distribution center in fiscal 1996. 5. Litigation There are various legal actions arising in the normal course of business that have been brought against the Company. Management believes these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements --------------------------------------------------------------- Certain of the matters discussed under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" may constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as such may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward- looking statements. Important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to differ materially from the Company's expectations are disclosed in this document including, without limitation, those statements made in conjunction with the forward-looking statements under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". All written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by such factors. POMEROY COMPUTER RESOURCES, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS TOTAL NET SALES AND REVENUES. Total net sales and revenues increased $37.1 million, or 58.8%, to $100.4 million in the first quarter of 1997 from $63.3 million in the first quarter of 1996. This increase was attributable to acquisitions completed in 1996, new regional offices, an increase in sales to existing and new customers, and overall growth. Excluding acquisitions completed in 1996 and new regional offices, total net sales and revenues increased 29.0%. Sales of equipment and supplies increased $32.9, million or 57.4%, to $90.2 million in the first quarter of 1997 from $57.3 million in the first quarter of 1996. Excluding acquisitions completed in 1996 and new regional offices, sales of equipment and supplies increased 27.1%. Service revenues increased $4.2 million, or 70.0%, to $10.2 million in the first quarter of 1996 from $6.0 million in the first quarter of 1996. Excluding acquisitions completed in 1996 and new regional offices, service revenues increased 46.7%. GROSS MARGINS. Gross margin was 16.8% in the first quarter of 1997 compared to 15.2% in the first quarter of 1996. This increase was partly a result of the increase in higher-margin service revenues versus lower-margin sales of equipment and supplies. The gross margin for services increased in the first quarter of 1997, compared to the first quarter of 1996, as a result of an increase in the mix of services to include more higher-margin outsourcing. Gross margin for equipment sales in the first quarter of 1997 increased in comparison to the first quarter of 1996 as a result of better pricing through volume purchases with major manufacturers. However, there was a decrease in equipment gross margin for the first quarter of 1997 compared to the fourth quarter of 1996 due to an increase in business with several lower-margin customers. OPERATING EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses (including rent expense) expressed as a percentage of total net sales and revenues increased to 10.9% in the first quarter of 1997 from 10.6% in the first quarter of 1996. This increase is primarily attributable to the continued addition of technical personnel to sustain the growth of the Company's service business. As these personnel reach full productivity, their cost as a percentage of total net sales and revenues should decrease. In addition, market development funds, which reduce selling, general and administrative expenses, have declined during the first quarter of 1997 as a percentage of total net sales and revenues compared to the first quarter of 1996. Market development funds declined to 1.1% in the first quarter of 1997, from 1.3% in the first quarter of 1996. Total operating expenses expressed as a percentage of total net sales and revenues increased to 11.9% in the first quarter of 1997 from 11.3% in the first quarter of 1996, due to the reduction of market development funds, the increase in depreciation related to the new headquarters and distribution facilities, and amortization of goodwill related to the acquisitions made in 1996. INCOME FROM OPERATIONS. Income from operations increased $2.4 million, or 96.0%, to $4.9 million in the first quarter of 1997 from $2.5 million in the first quarter of 1996. The Company's operating margin increased to 4.9% in the first quarter of 1997 from 3.9% in the first quarter of 1996 because the increase in gross margin more than offset the increase in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales and revenues. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense was approximately $0.4 million in the first quarter of 1997 and 1996. INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective tax rate was 36.0% in the first quarter of 1997 compared to 40.5% in the first quarter of 1996. This decrease was attributable to state tax credits earned as a result of the move to the new headquarters and distribution center in fiscal 1996. NET INCOME. Net income, excluding the impact of the Vanstar settlement, increased $1.7 million, or 135%, to $3.0 million in the first quarter of 1997 from $1.3 million in the first quarter of 1996 due to the factors described above. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash used in operating activities was $9.7 million in the first quarter of 1997. Cash used in investing activities was $0.9 million for capital expenditures. Cash provided by financing activities included $23.3 million of net proceeds from the issuance of 1.02 million shares of Common Stock in February 1997 and $0.1 million from the exercise of stock options less $18.9 million of repayments on bank notes payable and $0.4 million for a note repayment. A significant part of the Company's inventories is financed by floor plan arrangements with third parties. At April 5, 1997, these lines of credit totaled $37.0 million, including $12.0 million with IBM Credit Corporation (``ICC'') and $25.0 million with Deutsche Financial Services ("DFS"). Borrowings under the ICC floor plan arrangement are made on sixty day notes, with one- half of the note amount due in thirty days. Borrowings under the DFS floor plan arrangement are made on thirty day notes. All such borrowings are secured by the related inventory. Financing on many of the arrangements is interest free due to subsidies by manufacturers. The average rate on the plans overall is less than 1.0% per annum. The Company classifies amounts outstanding under the floor plan arrangements as accounts payable. The Company's financing of receivables is provided through its Credit Facility, which permits the Company to borrow up to the lesser of $25.0 million or an amount based upon a formula of eligible trade receivables. The Credit Facility carries a variable interest rate based on (i) Star Bank's prime rate less an incentive pricing spread (the " Incentive Pricing Spread") based on certain financial ratios of the Company or (ii) LIBOR plus the Incentive Pricing Spread, at the Company's election. The Incentive Pricing Spread is adjusted quarterly. At April 5, 1997, the amount outstanding, which consisted solely of overdrafts in accounts with the Company's primary lender, was $5.3 million. Currently, the Company does not have a balance outstanding under the Credit Facility. Any amounts drawn on the Credit Facility would have an interest rate of 7.75%. The Company is currently negotiating an extension or replacement of the Credit Facility which expired on April 30, 1997. An extension or replacement of the Credit Facility is expected to be completed on similar or improved terms during the second quarter of 1997. The Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company, except those assets that collateralize certain other financing arrangements. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company is prohibited from paying any cash dividends and is subject to various restrictive covenants. The Company believes that the anticipated cash flow from operations and current financing arrangements will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's capital requirements for the next 12 months.
