NOTE 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION The consolidated financial information for the six months ended June 30, 1999 has not been audited, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals, consolidation and eliminating entries) necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of McGrath RentCorp (the "Company") have been made. The consolidated results of the six months ended June 30, 1999 should not be considered as necessarily indicative of the consolidated results for the entire year. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest Form 10-K. NOTE 2. NOTES PAYABLE In June 1999, the Company amended its $75,000,000 unsecured line of credit agreement with its banks to extend it to June 30, 2001 (other terms and conditions remained the same). In addition, the Company amended its committed line of credit related to its cash management services to increase it to $4,000,000 and to extend it to June 30, 2000. NOTE 3. BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company defines its business segments based on the nature of operations for the purpose of reporting under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" (SFAS 131). The Company's three reportable segments are Mobile Modular Management Corporation (Modulars), McGrath-RenTelco (Electronics), and Enviroplex. The operations of these three segments are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's latest Form 10-K. As a separate corporate entity, Enviroplex revenues and expenses are separately maintained from Modulars and Electronics. Excluding interest expense, allocations of revenues and expenses not directly associated with Modulars or Electronics are generally allocated to these segments based on their pro-rata share of direct revenues. Interest expense is allocated between Modulars and Electronics based on their pro-rata share of average rental equipment, accounts receivable and customer security deposits. The Company does not report total assets by business segment. Summarized financial information for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 for the Company's reportable segments is shown in the following table: 4 6 (in thousands) MODULARS(1) ELECTRONICS(2) ENVIROPLEX CONSOLIDATED - -------------- ------------ --------------- ---------- ------------ SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 Rental Operation Revenues $ 30,501 $ 13,111 $ -- $ 43,612 Sales and Other Revenues 7,704 5,035 3,782 16,521 Total Revenues 38,205 18,146 3,782 60,133 Depreciation on Rental Equipment 5,096 4,323 -- 9,419 Interest Expense 2,381 806 (90) 3,097 Income before Income Taxes 11,694 6,538 323 18,555 Rental Equipment Acquisitions 13,771 5,952 -- 19,723 Accounts Receivable, net (period end) 11,648 8,391 3,317 23,356 Rental Equipment, at cost (period end) 227,105 67,534 -- 294,639 1998 Rental Operation Revenues $ 27,872 $ 11,399 -- $ 39,271 Sales and Other Revenues 6,403 4,599 10,552 21,554 Total Revenues 34,275 15,998 10,552 60,825 Depreciation on Rental Equipment 4,233 3,424 -- 7,657 Interest Expense 2,296 690 48 3,034 Income before Income Taxes 10,214 5,768 2,868 18,850 Rental Equipment Acquisitions 15,823 9,221 -- 25,044 Accounts Receivable, net (period end) 10,413 6,666 6,112 23,191 Rental Equipment, at cost (period end) 207,503 56,148 -- 263,651 - -------- (1) Operates under the trade name Mobile Modular Management Corporation (2) Operates under the trade name McGrath-RenTelco 5 7 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements which constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of places. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes", "expects", "may", "estimates", "will", "should", "plans" or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. These factors include the effectiveness of management's strategies and decisions, general economic and business conditions, new or modified statutory or regulatory requirements and changing prices and market conditions. This report identifies other factors that could cause such differences. No assurance can be given that these are all of the factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from the forward-looking statements. THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 Rental revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 increased $1,759,000 (10%) and $3,757,000 (11%), respectively, over the comparative periods in 1998. Mobile Modular Management Corporation ("MMMC") contributed $2,018,000 and McGrath-RenTelco contributed $1,739,000 of the six-month increase. MMMC's rental revenues increased as a result of having an average of $19,177,000 more equipment on rent compared to a year earlier. In 1999, Modulars average monthly yield of 1.91% and average utilization of 82.00%, exclusive of equipment not previously rented, was approximately the same as the comparative period in 1998. McGrath-RenTelco's rental revenues increased as a result of having an average of $13,717,000 more equipment on rent compared to a year earlier offset by an average monthly yield decline from 3.53% in 1998 to 3.20% in 1999 primarily as a result of average utilization declining from 55.4% in 1998 to 51.4% in 1999. Rental related services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 increased $373,000 (14%) and $584,000 (12%), respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1998 as a result of higher volume of modular equipment movements and site requirements in 1999. Gross margins on these services for the six-month period increased from 35% in 1998 to 43% in 1999 due to the mix of services performed in 1999 and approximate the 1998 annual gross margin. Sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 declined $4,026,000 (30%) and $5,115,000 (24%), respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1998 primarily due to a reduction in sales by Enviroplex of manufactured classrooms to school districts from the high levels in 1998 caused by California's Class Size Reduction Program. Further, management believes schools have delayed placing orders until allocation of funds from the $9.2 billion California bond measure, which passed in November 1998 is determined. Both MMMC and McGrath-RenTelco's sales volumes have increased over the 1998 comparative period. Consolidated gross margin on sales declined for the six-month period from 34% in 1998 to 31% in 1999 due to lower margin classroom projects sold during the first six-months of 1999. Sales continue to occur routinely as a normal part of the Company's rental business; however, these sales can fluctuate from quarter to quarter and year to year depending on customer demands and requirements. Enviroplex's backlog of orders as of June 30, 1999 and 1998 was $6,808,000 and $7,788,000, respectively. Backlog is not significant in MMMC's modular business or in McGrath-RenTelco's electronics business. Depreciation on rental equipment for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 increased $943,000 (25%) and $1,762,000 (23%) over the comparative periods in 1998 due to the additional rental equipment purchased during 1998. Modular rental equipment, at cost, increased 9% and Electronics rental equipment, at cost, increased 20% between June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1999. Selling and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 increased $150,000 (4%) and $644,000 (9%), respectively, over the comparative periods in 1998. For the comparative six-month period 6 8 the increase relates primarily to higher bad debt expense ($330,000) resulting from an unusual write-off of $282,000 in the first quarter of 1999. Additionally, higher depreciation expense for facilities and office equipment ($73,000) and advertising expenses ($60,000) for brochure development, web page design, and yellow page advertising contributed to the increase in selling and administrative expenses. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999 increased $63,000 (2%) over 1998 as a result of a higher average borrowing level offset by a lower average interest rate in 1999. The debt increase funded part of the significant rental equipment purchases made during the last twelve months. Income before provision for taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 decreased $668,000 (6%) and $295,000 (2%), respectively, while net income decreased $127,000 (2%) and increased $276,000 (3%), respectively, from the comparative periods in 1998. For the six-month comparative period, net income increased while pretax income declined as a result of a lower effective tax rate in 1999 of 39.25% compared to 39.40% in 1998 combined with a lower contribution to earnings by the majority owned subsidiary, Enviroplex. Earnings per share for the three and six months ending June 30, 1999 increased to $0.44 per share and $0.82 per share, respectively, on fewer outstanding shares. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES This section contains statements that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See the statement at the beginning of this Item for cautionary information with respect to such forward-looking statements. The Company's operations produced a positive cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 1999 of $23,615,000 as compared to $10,704,000 for the year earlier period. During 1999, the primary uses of cash have been to purchase additional rental inventory to satisfy customer requirements, to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock on the open market, and to pay dividends to the Company's shareholders. The Company had total liabilities to equity ratios of 1.84 to 1 and 1.64 to 1 as of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. The debt (notes payable) to equity ratios were 1.02 to 1 and 0.92 to 1 as of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. The Company has made purchases of shares of its common stock from time to time in the over-the-counter market (NASDAQ) and/or through privately negotiated, large block transactions under an authorization of the Board of Directors. Shares repurchased by the Company are cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued stock. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company repurchased 686,900 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $12,583,313 (or an average price of $18.32 per share). As of August 6, 1999, 740,500 shares remain authorized for repurchase. The Company believes that its needs for working capital and capital expenditures through 1999 and beyond will be met adequately by cash flow and bank borrowings. MARKET RISK This section contains statements that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See the statement at the beginning of this Item for cautionary information with respect to such forward-looking statements. The Company currently has no material derivative financial instruments that expose the Company to significant market risk. The Company is exposed to cash flow and fair value risk due to changes in interest rates with respect to its notes payable. As of June 30, 1999, the Company believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments (cash and notes payable) approximate fair value. 7 9 YEAR 2000 This section contains statements that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See the statement at the beginning of this Item for cautionary information with respect to such forward-looking statements. The "Year 2000" issue is the result of computer programs using two digits rather than four to determine the applicable year. This could affect date-sensitive calculations that treat "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. An assessment of the Company's exposure related to Year 2000 issues has been completed and it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company. The Company initiated a number of major system projects in 1997 and 1998 to upgrade core computer hardware, networking and software systems. These projects are replacing existing systems as opposed to simply fixing Year 2000 problems. Most of these projects have been completed and are operational; the balance is expected to be operational by September 1999. Capitalized expenditures for this process totaled $1,600,000 for the period January 1, 1997 to June 30, 1999 for external labor, hardware and software costs. This amount includes the cost of new software applications installed as a result of strategic replacement projects. Prior to December 31, 1998, the Company did not separately track the internal costs incurred related to Year 2000 issues or the system conversions described above. Such internal costs are principally the related payroll costs for its information systems personnel and are not necessarily considered incremental costs to the Company. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company began to track these internal costs in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." The Company estimates approximately $400,000 for completion of its system upgrades for the remainder of 1999, of which approximately $150,000 is expected to be related to internal costs. All future costs will be funded from operating cash flow. The Company does not significantly rely on "embedded technology" in its critical processes. Embedded technology, which means microprocessor-controlled devices as opposed to multi-purpose computers, does control some building and security operations, such as electric power management, ventilation, and building access. All building facilities are presently being evaluated, and the Company expects all systems using embedded technology to be confirmed as Year 2000 ready by September, 1999. The electronics test and measurement rental equipment has been evaluated, and it appears only minor quantities of equipment pose a Year 2000 problem. If deemed important, some equipment may be upgraded. The Company asks its customers to seek definitive Year 2000 compliance guidance directly from the equipment manufacturers. The Company cannot predict the likelihood of a significant disruption of its customers' or suppliers' businesses or the economy as a whole, either of which could have a material adverse impact on the Company. However, because the markets for the Company's products are comprised of numerous customers with a variety of sizes and levels of sophistication, the noncompliance with Year 2000 of any one would not be expected to have a detrimental impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. As a normal course of business, the Company seeks to maintain multiple suppliers where possible. The Company continues to communicate with vendors, customers, suppliers, service providers, and government agencies to monitor their compliance. The Company presently believes that its Year 2000 exposures will not present a material adverse risk to the Company's future consolidated results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources. However, if all systems are not completed in a timely manner, or the level of timely compliance by key suppliers or service providers is not sufficient, the Year 2000 issue could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations. This includes, but is not limited to, delays of equipment shipments resulting in loss of revenues, increased operating costs, loss of customers and suppliers, or other significant disruptions to the Company's business. The Company's contingency plan includes (1) all critical computer operating and financial data will be backed-up and printed at key dates to provide the basis, if necessary, for a manual system, (2) in the event a significant number of customers are unable to issue payments, the Company has sufficient liquidity with its existing line of credit to function adequately, and (3) the Company continues to look for multiple suppliers and is also 8 10 evaluating power and communication alternatives in the event of a loss of service. The contingency plan is enhanced by the fact that existing management has been in place since before computer systems were used. PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 3. OTHER INFORMATION On June 3, 1999, the Company declared a quarterly dividend on its Common Stock; the dividend was $0.12 per share. Subject to its continued profitability and favorable cash flow, the Company intends to continue the payment of quarterly dividends. ITEM 4. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K (a) Exhibits.
