NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1999 (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Pentacon, Inc. ("Pentacon" or the "Company") was incorporated in March 1997. On March 10, 1998, Pentacon and separate wholly-owned subsidiaries acquired in separate transactions, simultaneously with the closing of its initial public offering (the "Offering") of its common stock, five businesses (the "Initial Acquisitions"): Alatec Products, Inc. (Alatec), AXS Solutions, Inc. (AXS), Capitol Bolt & Supply, Inc. (Capitol), Maumee Industries, Inc. (Maumee), and Sales Systems, Limited (SSL), collectively referred to as the "Founding Companies." The consideration for the Initial Acquisitions consisted of a combination of cash and common stock. Because (i) the stockholders of the Founding Companies owned a majority of the outstanding shares of Pentacon common stock following the Offering and the Initial Acquisitions, and (ii) the stockholders of Alatec received the greatest number of shares of Pentacon common stock among the stockholders of the Founding Companies, for financial statement presentation purposes, Alatec has been identified as the accounting acquiror. The acquisitions of the remaining Founding Companies have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Therefore Alatec's historical financial statements for all periods prior to March 10, 1998 are presented as the historical financial statements of the registrant. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the Company include Pentacon, the Founding Companies and acquisitions subsequent to the Offering ("Subsequent Acquisitions"). In October 1998, the Company changed its year end from September 30 to December 31. A Transition Report on Form 10-Q was filed for the three-month transition period ended December 31, 1998. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the Rules and Regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements are not included herein. The Company believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. The statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998 and the Transition Report on Form 10-Q filed for the three-month transition period ended December 31, 1998. The pro forma financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998 includes the results of Pentacon combined with the Founding Companies as if the Initial Acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the three- and six-month periods. The pro forma financial information includes the effects of (i) the Initial Acquisitions (ii) the Offering (iii) certain reductions in salaries and benefits to the former owners of the Founding Companies to which they agreed prospectively (iv) certain reductions in lease expense paid to the former owners of the Founding Companies to which they agreed prospectively (v) elimination of non-recurring, non-cash compensation charges related to common stock issued to management (vi) amortization of goodwill resulting from the Initial Acquisitions and (vii) advances under the Bank Credit Facility (see Note 4) including decreases in interest expense resulting from the repayment or refinancing of the Founding Companies' debt and (viii) adjustments to the provisions for federal and state income taxes. Subsequent Acquisitions are included in the Historical and Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations only for those periods subsequent to the dates of acquisition. The pro forma financial information may not be comparable to and may not be indicative of the Company's post-acquisition results of operations because the Founding Companies were not under common control or management. 9 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES There has been no significant change in the accounting policies of the Company during the periods presented. For a description of these policies, refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of Pentacon included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998. 3. ACQUISITIONS During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company completed four acquisitions in addition to the acquisitions of the Founding Companies. In May 1998, the Company acquired Pace Products, Inc., a distributor of fasteners and other small parts which also provides inventory procurement and management services primarily to the telecommunications industry. In June 1998, the Company acquired D-Bolt Company Inc., a distributor of fasteners and other small parts primarily to the fabrication, construction and mining industries. In July 1998, the Company acquired Texas International Aviation, Inc., a distributor of fasteners and other small parts which provides inventory procurement and management services primarily to the aerospace industry. In September 1998, the Company acquired ASI Aerospace Group, Inc., a distributor of fasteners and other small parts which provides inventory procurement and management services primarily to the aerospace industry. The consideration paid for the Subsequent Acquisitions consisted of an aggregate of 1,134,010 shares of common stock and approximately $77.0 million in cash. The acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and the results of operations of the acquired companies are included from the date of acquisition. The allocations of purchase price to the Founding Companies' assets acquired and liabilities assumed was assigned and recorded based on fair market values. The allocation of purchase price to the Subsequent Acquisitions' assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been initially assigned and recorded based on preliminary estimates of fair market value and may be revised as additional information concerning the valuation of such assets and liabilities becomes available. If all completed acquisitions, including the Founding Companies, were effective on the first day of the period being reported, the unaudited pro forma revenues, gross margin, operating income and net income would have been: SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, --------------------------- 1999 1998 --------- ---------- (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA) Revenues ........................ $137,747 $145,133 Gross margin .................... 44,538 48,842 Operating income ................ 12,381 17,857 Write-off of debt issuance costs ......................... 2,308 -- Interest expense ................ 7,458 5,248 Net income ...................... 1,159 6,784 Net income per share: Basic ......................... $ 0.07 $ 0.41 Diluted ....................... $ 0.07 $ 0.40 10 4. LONG-TERM DEBT In March 1999, the Company sold $100 million of Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") due April 1, 2009. The net proceeds of $94.2 million, after the original issue discount and paying underwriter's commissions, from the offering of the Notes were used to repay indebtedness under the Company's credit agreement (the "Bank Credit Facility"). The Notes accrue interest at 12 1/4% which is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The Notes are publicly-registered and subordinated to all existing and future senior subordinated obligations and will rank senior to all subordinated indebtedness. The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make investments and sell assets. At June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance with the covenants. Each of the Company's subsidiaries which are wholly-owned, fully, unconditionally and jointly and severally guarantees the Notes on a senior subordinated basis. In connection with the issuance of the Notes in March 1999, the Company amended its Bank Credit Facility to provide a revolving line of credit of up to $85 million (subject to a borrowing base limitation) to be used for general corporate purposes, future acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital. The Bank Credit Facility is secured by Company stock and assets. Advances under the Bank Credit Facility bear interest at the banks' designated variable rate plus a margin of 25 to 150 basis points. At the Company's option, the loans may bear interest based on a designated London interbank offered rate plus a margin of 175 to 325 basis points. Commitment fees of 25 to 50 basis points per annum are payable on the unused portion of the line of credit. The Bank Credit Facility contains a provision for standby letters of credit up to $5.0 million. The Bank Credit Facility prohibits the payment of dividends by the Company, restricts the Company's incurring or assuming other indebtedness and requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants including a minimum net worth, senior debt leverage ratio, total debt leverage ratio, and minimum fixed charge ratio. At June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance with the covenants. The Bank Credit Facility will terminate and all amounts outstanding thereunder, if any, will be due and payable December 31, 2001. At June 30, 1999, the Company has approximately $21.5 million available under the Bank Credit Facility. In connection with the amendment of and reduction in the Bank Credit Facility, the Company recorded a $2.3 million ($.07 impact on earnings per share) noncash charge for the write-off of debt issuance costs. 5. EARNINGS PER SHARE Pro forma and historical net income per share for the period ended June 30, 1998 is computed based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. The pro forma calculation assumes the Initial Acquisitions and Offering occurred at the beginning of the period. The computation of historical and pro forma net income per share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 is based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. 11 Basic and diluted historical net income per share is computed based on the following information: THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED -------------------- -------------------- JUNE 30, JUNE 30, -------------------- -------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ------- ------- ------- ------- (IN THOUSANDS) BASIC: Net income ........................... $ 900 $ 2,121 $ 1,159 $ 2,030 ======= ======= ======= ======= Average common shares ................ 16,668 15,721 16,668 10,907 ======= ======= ======= ======= DILUTED: Net income ........................... $ 900 $ 2,121 $ 1,159 $ 2,030 ======= ======= ======= ======= Average common shares ................ 16,668 15,721 16,668 10,907 Common share equivalents: Warrants ......................... -- 25 -- 16 Options .......................... 1 188 -- 115 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total common share equivalents 1 213 -- 131 ------- ------- ------- ------- Average common shares and common share equivalents ..... 16,669 15,934 16,668 11,038 ======= ======= ======= ======= Basic and diluted pro forma net income per share is computed based on the following information: THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED -------------------- --------------------- JUNE 30, JUNE 30, -------------------- --------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ------- ------- -------- ------- (IN THOUSANDS) BASIC: Net income ......................... $ 900 $ 2,447 $ 1,159 $ 4,497 ======= ======= ======== ======= Average common shares .............. 16,668 15,721 16,668 15,626 ======= ======= ======== ======= DILUTED: Net income ......................... $ 900 $ 2,447 $ 1,159 $ 4,497 ======= ======= ======== ======= Average common shares .............. 16,668 15,721 16,668 15,626 Common share equivalents: Warrants ....................... -- 25 -- 16 Options ........................ 1 188 -- 114 ------- ------- -------- ------- Total common share equivalents 1 213 -- 130 ------- ------- -------- ------- Average common shares and common share equivalents ..... 16,669 15,934 16,668 15,756 ======= ======= ======== ======= 12 6. INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes included in the Historical Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 assumes the application of statutory federal and state income tax rates and the non-deductibility of goodwill amortization. The provision for income taxes included in the Historical Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 reflects the activity of the accounting acquiror prior to the Initial Acquisitions, the non-deductibility of goodwill amortization and the non-deductibility of compensation related to common stock sold to management. The provision for income taxes included in the Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 assumes the application of statutory federal and state income tax rates and the non-deductibility of goodwill amortization. Interim period income tax provisions are based upon estimates of annual effective tax rates and events may occur which will cause such rates to vary. 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of such proceedings with certainty, in the opinion of the Company, all such proceedings are either adequately covered by insurance or, if not so covered, should not ultimately result in any liability which would have a material adverse effect on the financial position, liquidity or results of operations of the Company. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and related notes thereto and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations related thereto which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998 and the Transition Report on Form 10-Q filed for the three-month transition period ended December 31, 1998. As noted in the transition report, the Company's year end has been changed to December 31 from September 30. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, but are not limited to (i) estimates of costs or projected or anticipated changes to cost estimates relating to entering new markets or expanding in existing markets (ii) changes in economic and industry conditions (iii) changes in regulatory requirements (iv) changes in interest rates (v) levels of borrowings under the Company's Bank Credit Facility (vi) accumulation of excess inventories by certain customers in the aerospace industry and (vii) volume or price adjustments with respect to sales to major customers. These and other risks and assumptions are described in the Company's reports that are available from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In October 1998, the Company changed its year end from September 30 to December 31. A 13 Transition Report on Form 10-Q has been filed for the three-month transition period ended December 31, 1998. The pro forma financial information for the three- and six- months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 includes the results of Pentacon combined with the Founding Companies as if the Initial Acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of each respective three- and six-month period. The pro forma financial information includes the effects of (i) the Initial Acquisitions (ii) the Offering (iii) certain reductions in salaries and benefits to the former owners of the Founding Companies to which they agreed prospectively (iv) certain reductions in lease expense paid to the former owners of the Founding Companies to which they agreed prospectively (v) elimination of non-recurring, non-cash compensation charges related to common stock issued to management (vi) amortization of goodwill resulting from the Initial Acquisitions and (vii) advances under the Bank Credit Facility (see Note 4 to the Financial Statements) including decreases in interest expense resulting from the repayment or refinancing of the Founding Companies' debt and (viii) adjustments to the provisions for federal and state income taxes. Subsequent Acquisitions are included in the Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations only for those periods subsequent to the dates of acquisition. The pro forma financial information may not be comparable to and may not be indicative of the Company's post-acquisition results of operations because the Founding Companies were not under common control or management. Quarterly results may also be materially affected by the timing and magnitude of acquisitions, assimilation costs, costs of opening new facilities, gain or loss of a material customer and variation in product mix. Accordingly, the operating results for any three-month period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for any subsequent three- or six-month period or for a full year. PRO FORMA THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 The following table sets forth certain selected pro forma financial data and the related amounts as a percentage of pro forma revenues for the periods indicated: PRO FORMA THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, -------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 ------------------- ------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Revenues ........................ $71,197 100.0% $46,428 100.0% Cost of sales ................... 48,561 68.2 30,380 65.4 ------- ----- ------- ----- Gross profit .......... 22,636 31.8 16,048 34.6 Operating expenses .............. 15,422 21.7 10,931 23.6 Goodwill amortization ........... 865 1.2 390 0.8 ------- ----- ------- ----- Operating income ...... $ 6,349 8.9% $ 4,727 10.2% ======= ===== ======= ===== REVENUES Pro forma revenues increased 53.4% to $71.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from $46.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in pro forma revenues was attributable primarily to the Subsequent Acquisitions and, to a lesser extent, internal revenue growth of 3.3% experienced by the Founding Companies. The modest internal revenue growth resulted from increased revenues in the industrial business offset by a decline in our aerospace business and lower pricing to a major industrial customer. 14 COST OF SALES Pro forma cost of sales increased $18.2 million, or 59.9%, to $48.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from $30.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage of pro forma revenues, pro forma cost of sales increased from 65.4% in the three months ended June 30, 1998 to 68.2% in the three months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in pro forma cost of sales as a percentage of pro forma revenues was a result of lower margins historically attained by the Subsequent Acquisitions and lower margins on new business with an existing customer in our industrial business. OPERATING EXPENSES Pro forma operating expenses increased $4.5 million, or 41.3%, to $15.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage of pro forma revenues, pro forma operating expenses decreased to 21.7% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from 23.6% for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower operating expenses as a percentage of revenues historically attained by the Subsequent Acquisitions partially offset by additional costs associated with additional sales to an existing customer in our industrial business. OPERATING INCOME Due to the factors discussed above, pro forma operating income increased $1.6 million to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage of pro forma revenues, pro forma operating income decreased to 8.9% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 from 10.2% for the three months ended June 30, 1998. NON-OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999 totaled $4.3 million compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in interest expense primarily results from additional debt incurred for the Subsequent Acquisitions and the higher rate of interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes issued in March 1999. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $1.2 million (an effective rate of 57.4%) compared with $2.0 million (an effective rate of 44.5%) for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The higher effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 primarily related to the increase in non-deductible goodwill amortization that resulted from the Subsequent Acquisitions. 15 PRO FORMA SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 The following table sets forth certain selected pro forma financial data and the related amounts as a percentage of pro forma revenues for the periods indicated: PRO FORMA SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, --------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 ------------------- ------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Revenues ...................... $137,747 100.0% $ 87,725 100.0% Cost of sales ................. 93,209 67.7 57,549 65.6 -------- ----- -------- ----- Gross profit ....... 44,538 32.3 30,176 34.4 Operating expenses ............ 30,434 22.0 20,721 23.6 Goodwill amortization ......... 1,723 1.3 764 0.9 -------- ----- -------- ----- Operating income $ 12,381 9.0% $ 8,691 9.9% ======== ===== ======== ===== REVENUES Pro forma revenues increased 57.0% to $137.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $87.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in pro forma revenues was attributable primarily to the Subsequent Acquisitions and, to a lesser extent, internal revenue growth of 3.6% experienced by the Founding Companies. The modest internal revenue growth resulted from increased revenues in the industrial business offset by a decline in our aerospace business and lower pricing to a major industrial customer. COST OF SALES Pro forma cost of sales increased $35.7 million, or 62.1%, to $93.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $57.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage of pro forma revenues, pro forma cost of sales increased from 65.6% in the six months ended June 30, 1998 to 67.7% in the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in pro forma cost of sales as a percentage of pro forma revenues was a result of lower margins historically attained by the Subsequent Acquisitions as compared to the Initial Acquisitions and lower margins on new business with an existing customer in our industrial business. OPERATING EXPENSES Pro forma operating expenses increased $9.7 million, or 46.9%, to $30.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $20.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. As a percentage of pro forma revenues, pro forma operating expenses decreased to 22.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from 23.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower operating expenses as a percentage of revenues historically attained by the Subsequent Acquisitions partially offset by additional costs associated with additional sales to an existing customer in our industrial business. OPERATING INCOME Due to the factors discussed above, pro forma operating income increased $3.7 million to $12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $8.7 million for the six months ended June 16 30, 1998. As a percentage of pro forma revenues, pro forma operating income decreased to 9.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from 9.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1998. NON-OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES The write-off of debt issuance costs during the six months ended June 30, 1999 resulted from the amendment of the Company's Bank Credit Facility in connection with the Senior Subordinated Notes issued in March 1999. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999 totaled $7.5 million compared to $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in interest expense primarily results from additional debt incurred for the Subsequent Acquisitions and the higher rate of interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes issued in March 1999. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $1.5 million (an effective rate of 56.5%) compared with $3.6 million (an effective rate of 44.8%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The higher effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1999 primarily related to the increase in non-deductible goodwill amortization that resulted from the Subsequent Acquisitions. HISTORICAL THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 The historical financial information represents the results of Pentacon subsequent to the Initial Acquisitions and the Offering on March 10, 1998. The historical financial information for the three-month period ended June 30, 1999 is the same as the pro forma financial information discussed in the preceding section. However, the provision for income taxes in the three-month period ended June 30, 1998 differed as a result of non-deductible goodwill amortization and the non-deductible $1.8 million compensation expense related to the sale of common stock to management. HISTORICAL SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 The historical financial information represents the information of Alatec prior to the Initial Acquisitions and the Offering and the consolidated results of Pentacon Subsequent to the Initial Acquisitions and the Offering on March 10, 1998. The following table sets forth certain selected historical financial data and the related amounts as a percentage of historical revenues for the periods indicated: HISTORICAL SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, ---------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 -------------------- -------------------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Revenues ................... $137,747 100.0% $ 66,284 100.0% Cost of sales .............. 93,209 67.7 42,767 64.5 -------- ----- -------- ----- Gross profit ......... 44,538 32.3 23,517 35.5 Operating expenses ......... 30,434 22.0 18,150 27.4 Goodwill amortization ...... 1,723 1.3 469 0.7 -------- ----- -------- ----- Operating income ...... $ 12,381 9.0% $ 4,898 7.4% ======== ===== ======== ===== 17 REVENUES Revenues increased $71.4 million, or 107.7%, from $66.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $137.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in revenues primarily results from the Initial Acquisitions on March 10, 1998 and the Subsequent Acquisitions. COST OF SALES Cost of sales increased $50.4 million, or 117.8%, from $42.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $93.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in cost of sales primarily results from the Initial Acquisitions on March 10, 1998 and the Subsequent Acquisitions. OPERATING EXPENSES Operating expenses increased $12.2 million, or 67.0%, from $18.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $30.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in operating expenses primarily results from the Initial Acquisitions and the Offering on March 10, 1998 and the Subsequent Acquisitions. OPERATING INCOME Operating income increased $7.5 million, or 153.1%, from $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 due to the factors noted above. NON OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES The write-off of debt issuance costs during the six months ended June 30, 1999 resulted from the amendment of the Company's Bank Credit Facility in connection with the Senior Subordinated Notes issued in March 1999. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999 totaled $7.5 million compared to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in interest expense primarily results from additional debt incurred for the Subsequent Acquisitions and the higher rate of interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes issued in March 1999. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $1.5 million (an effective rate of 56.5%) compared with $2.2 million (an effective rate of 52.3%) for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The higher effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 primarily related to the increase in non-deductible goodwill amortization that resulted from the Subsequent Acquisitions. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company used $12.8 million of net cash in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 1999; resulting primarily from increases in working capital. Net cash used in investing activities was $2.8 million for capital expenditures. Net cash provided by financing activities was $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and primarily consisted of $171.9 million 18 repayment of debt offset by $190.9 million of borrowings on debt. At June 30, 1999, the Company had cash of $0.4 million, working capital of $125.7 million and total debt of $157.6 million. In March 1999, the Company sold $100 million of Notes due April 1, 2009. The net proceeds of $94.2 million, after the original issue discount and paying underwriter's commissions, from the offering of the Notes were used to repay indebtedness under the Company's Bank Credit Facility. The Notes accrue interest at 12 1/4% which is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The Notes are publicly-registered and subordinated to all existing and future senior subordinated obligations and will rank senior to all subordinated indebtedness. The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make investments and sell assets. At June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance with the covenants. Each of the Company's subsidaries which are wholly-owned, fully, unconditionally and jointly and severally guarantees the Notes on a senior subordinated basis. In connection with the issuance of the Notes in March 1999, the Company amended its Bank Credit Facility to provide a revolving line of credit of up to $85 million (subject to a borrowing base limitation) to be used for general corporate purposes, future acquisitions, capital expenditures and working capital. The Bank Credit Facility is secured by Company stock and assets. Advances under the Bank Credit Facility bear interest at the banks' designated variable rate plus a margin of 25 to 150 basis points. At the Company's option, the loans may bear interest based on a designated London interbank offered rate plus a margin of 175 to 325 basis points. Commitment fees of 25 to 50 basis points per annum are payable on the unused portion of the line of credit. The Bank Credit Facility contains a provision for standby letters of credit up to $5.0 million. The Bank Credit Facility prohibits the payment of dividends by the Company, restricts the Company's incurring or assuming other indebtedness and requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants including a minimum net worth, senior debt leverage ratio, total debt leverage ratio and minimum fixed charge ratio. At June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance with the covenants. The Bank Credit Facility will terminate and all amounts outstanding thereunder, if any, will be due and payable December 31, 2001. At June 30, 1999, the Company has approximately $21.5 million available under the Bank Credit Facility. In connection with the amendment of and reduction in the Bank Credit Facility, the Company recorded a $2.3 million ($.07 impact on earnings per share) noncash charge for the write-off of debt issuance costs. The Company currently operates in a decentralized information systems environment and uses a variety of software, computer systems and related technologies for accounting and reporting purposes and for revenue-generating activities. The Pentacon companies which primarily serve the aerospace industry are in the process of migrating to a common information system which will facilitate product ordering, pricing and reporting among the companies. The total expenditures for these information systems are expected to be approximately $3.0 million (of which $2.3 million has been incurred at June 30, 1999), the majority of which will be capitalized as computer hardware and software as it is installed and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the assets. Funding for these expenditures has come from operating cash flows and the Company's Bank Credit Facility. YEAR 2000 The Company is working to resolve the potential impact of the Year 2000 on the processing of date-sensitive information by the Company's computerized information systems and other infrastructure that contains embedded technology. The Year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs being written using two digits (rather than four) to define the applicable year. Any of the 19 Company's programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the Year 1900 rather than the Year 2000, which could result in miscalculations or system failures. The Company believes that substantially all of its computerized information systems and other infrastructure that contains embedded technology are Year 2000 compliant or have been modified so as to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company's only significant computerized information system which is not Year 2000 compliant is being replaced in the quarter ended September 30, 1999. Remaining costs of addressing potential problems are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, if the Company, its customers or vendors are unable to resolve such processing issues in a timely manner, it could have a significant impact on the Company's ability to conduct its business and result in a material financial risk. In addition, the Company is continually attempting to assess the level of Year 2000 preparedness of its key suppliers, distributors, customers and service providers. The Company has sent, and will continue to send, letters, questionnaires and surveys to its significant business partners inquiring about their Year 2000 efforts. If a significant supplier or customer of the Company fails to be Year 2000 compliant, the Company could suffer a material loss of business or incur material expenses. As of June 30, 1999, the Company has spent $0.4 million in costs that are directly attributable to addressing Year 2000 issues. Management currently estimates that the Company will not incur significant additional costs during 1999 relating to Year 2000 issues. The Company expects that it will spend approximately $3.0 million (of which $2.3 million has been incurred at June 30, 1999) to purchase software and hardware and on implementation expenses associated with the migration to a common information technology system in the Pentacon companies which primarily serve the aerospace industry. The Company believes that these costs are not, for the most part, directly related to Year 2000 issues, but are required for the implementation of its new system in the Pentacon companies which primarily serve the aerospace industry. The Company is developing and evaluating contingency plans in the event that the Company has not completed all of its remediation plans in a timely manner or if third parties who provide goods or services to the Company fail to address their Year 2000 issues appropriately. These plans include identification of alternative suppliers and service providers, depletion of safety stocks of inventory and identification of important areas of record retention.
