The information furnished in the condensed consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report"). The quarterly results are not necessarily indicative of the actual results that may occur for the entire fiscal year. (2) BUSINESS AND CUSTOMERS The Company is the world's leading supplier of suspension assemblies for rigid disk drives. Suspension assemblies hold the recording heads in position above the spinning magnetic disks in the drive and are critical to maintaining the necessary microscopic clearance between the head and disk. The Company developed its leadership position in suspension assemblies through research, development and design activities coupled with a substantial investment in manufacturing technologies and equipment. The Company is focused on continuing to develop suspension assemblies which address the rapidly changing requirements of the rigid disk drive industry. The Company also is evaluating other product opportunities in the medical market and does not expect any significant medical revenues in fiscal 1995. A breakdown of customer sales is as follows: Thirteen Weeks Ended Twenty-Six Weeks Ended ---------------------- ----------------------- March 26, March 27, March 26, March 27, Percentage of Net Sales 1995 1994 1995 1994 - ----------------------- --------- --------- ----------- --------- Five Largest Customers 84% 79% 85% 77% Seagate Technology 34 26 36 25 Read-Rite 20 34 21 34 Yamaha 11 7 12 6 IBM 11 5 9 4 SAE Magnetics 8 7 7 8 Sales returns and allowances for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 were $1,430,000 compared to $1,889,000 for the comparable period in fiscal 1994. (3) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of ninety days or less. (4) SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE Securities available for sale at March 26,1995 consisted of U.S. Treasury bills with a market value and cost of $1,164,000. The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". 5 (5) INVENTORIES All inventories are stated at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market. Inventories consisted of the following: March 26, September 25, 1995 1994 ---------- ------------- Raw materials $4,053 $4,339 Work in process 4,079 3,139 Finished goods 8,219 2,581 LIFO reserve (404) (530) ---------- ----------- $15,947 $9,529 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- (6) NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE Net income (loss) per share, which is approximately equivalent on both a primary and fully diluted basis, is based, to the extent dilutive, on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding. (7) INCOME TAXES Income taxes have been provided based upon the estimated effective tax rate for the fiscal year. On September 27, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting for Income Taxes". The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 had no material effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations. The following table details the components of deferred tax assets: March 26, September 25, 1995 1994 ----------- ------------- Current deferred tax assets Related to sales and accounts receivables $953 $687 Related to inventories 2,343 1,568 Accruals and other reserves 967 935 ---------- ------------ 4,263 3,190 Long-term deferred tax assets Related to property, plant and equipment 1,301 (105) Tax credits 5,356 3,875 Valuation allowance (2,947) (1,601) ---------- ------------ 3,710 2,169 ---------- ------------ Total deferred tax assets $7,973 $5,359 ---------- ------------ ---------- ------------ The following table lists the types of tax credits available to the Company, and their expiration dates: Year of Carryforward Amount Expiration - -------------- --------- ----------------- Research and development $817 2008 - 2010 Alternative minimum tax 4,539 Does not expire 6 The Company determined that the realization of certain of these tax credits did not meet the recognition criteria under SFAS No. 109 and, accordingly, a valuation allowance has been established. (8) SUPPLEMENTARY CASH FLOW INFORMATION Twenty-Six Weeks Ended ------------------------ March 26, March 27, 1995 1994 --------- --------- Changes in operating assets and liabilities: Receivables, net $2,414 ($10,557) Inventories (6,418) (1,246) Prepaid taxes and other (1,001) (316) Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 6,483 951 Accrued income taxes 2,644 252 -------- --------- $4,122 ($10,916) -------- --------- -------- --------- Cash paid for: Interest (net of amount capitalized) $1,603 $65 Income taxes 2,000 929 Capitalized interest for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 was $254,000 compared to $568,000 for the comparable period in fiscal 1994. (9) ADDITIONAL LONG-TERM DEBT On April 20, 1994 the Company obtained $30,000,000 through the placement of senior unsecured notes bearing a fixed 7.46% interest rate and requiring semi-annual principal payments of $1,875,000 beginning August 15, 1996. Notes of $20,000,000, $5,000,000 and $5,000,000 were placed with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, Central Life Assurance Company and Modern Woodmen of America, respectively. 7 HUTCHINSON TECHNOLOGY INCORPORATED ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MARCH 26, 1995 VS. THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED MARCH 27, 1994. Net sales for the thirteen weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $9,253,000 or 16% over the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The Company shipped approximately 16 million more suspension assemblies over the comparable period in fiscal 1994. Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 increased $5,532,000 or 57% over the comparable period in fiscal 1994 and gross profit as a percent of net sales increased from 17% to 22%. The increase in gross profit and gross profit as a percent of net sales was primarily due to higher sales volume and improving manufacturing efficiencies resulting in higher production, noted above. Research and development expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 were $2,892,000, an increase of $839,000 or 41% as compared to the same period in fiscal 1994. The higher expenses were primarily due to increased labor expenses. The majority of the research and development expenses are attributable to the development of new suspension assembly types to meet customers' changing requirements. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirteen weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $1,082,000 or 19% from the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The increased expenses were primarily due to a $583,000 increase in profit sharing expense and a $208,000 increase in labor expenses. As a percent of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses remained at 10%. Other income for the thirteen weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $42,000 from the comparable period in fiscal 1994. Interest income increased by $313,000, offset by a $300,000 reduction in licensing income. Interest expense increased $688,000 as a result of higher outstanding debt and lower capitalization of interest expense. The income tax provision for the thirteen weeks ended March 26, 1995 was based on an estimated effective tax rate for the fiscal year of 24% which was below the statutory federal rate primarily due to the large portion of sales that qualify for the benefit of the Company's Foreign Sales Corporation. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 was $4,084,000, an increase of $2,280,000 over the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The increase was primarily due to the increased suspension assembly sales volume and manufacturing efficiencies, noted above. TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED MARCH 26, 1995 VS. TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED MARCH 27, 1994. Net sales for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $25,791,000 or 24% over the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The Company shipped approximately 40 million more suspension assemblies over the comparable period in fiscal 1994. Gross profit for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $14,270,000 or 102% over the comparable period in fiscal 1994 and gross profit as a percent of net sales increased from 13% to 21%. The increase in gross profit and gross profit as a percent of net sales was primarily due to higher sales volume and improving manufacturing efficiencies resulting in higher production, noted above. Research and development expenses for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $1,598,000 or 39% as compared to the same period in fiscal 1994. The higher expenses were primarily 8 due to increased labor expenses. The majority of the research and development expenses are attributable to the development of new suspension assembly types to meet customers' changing requirements. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 increased $2,184,000 or 20% from the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The increased expenses were primarily due to a $939,000 increase in profit sharing expense and a $405,000 increase in labor expenses. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 11% to 10%. Other income for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 decreased $6,000 from the comparable period in fiscal 1994. A $712,000 decrease in licensing income was offset partially by a $548,000 increase in interest income. Interest expense increased $1,300,000 as a result of higher outstanding debt and lower capitalization of interest expense. The income tax provision for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 was based on an estimated effective tax rate for the fiscal year of 24% which was below the statutory federal rate primarily due to the large portion of sales that qualify for the benefit of the Company's Foreign Sales Corporation. Net income for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 was $6,429,000 compared to a net loss of $537,000 for the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume and improving manufacturing efficiencies, noted above. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Principal sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, cash balances and additional financing capacity. The Company's cash and cash equivalents increased to $23,066,000 at March 26, 1995 compared to $18,570,000 at September 25, 1994. The Company provided $22,052,000 from operating activities during the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995. Cash used for capital expenditures for the twenty-six weeks ended March 26, 1995 totaled $15,317,000, a decrease of $2,150,000 from the comparable period in fiscal 1994. The higher expenditures in fiscal 1994 were primarily for additional manufacturing equipment at the Company's facilities in Hutchinson and Sioux Falls and the expansion of the Company's manufacturing plant in Hutchinson. The Company anticipates, but is not contractually committed to, aggregate fiscal 1995 expenditures of approximately $40,000,000 for manufacturing and support equipment at its manufacturing facilities and office space at the Hutchinson site. Financing of these capital expenditures will be principally from internally generated funds, cash balances and/or additional financing capacity. The Company maintains a $15,000,000 unsecured working capital line of credit agreement with Harris Trust and Savings Bank and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association. At March 26, 1995 the Company had no borrowings under this agreement. The $1,340,000 annual principal installment of the $10,000,000 senior unsecured notes placed in fiscal 1989 was paid during the first quarter of fiscal 1995. The $940,000 annual principal installment of the $7,000,000 senior unsecured notes placed in fiscal 1987 is due during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995. The first $1,875,000 semi-annual installment of the $30,000,000 senior unsecured notes placed in fiscal 1994 is due during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. The Company's debt agreements contain various restrictive covenants. As of March 26 1995, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants. The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, cash to be generated from operations, its existing bank facilities and additional financing capacity will be sufficient to meet the Company's current and long-term liquidity, debt installments, and capital requirements. 9 MARKET TRENDS AND CERTAIN CONTINGENCIES Due to the dynamic nature of the disk drive industry, the Company has historically experienced significant, unforeseen increases and decreases in demand for certain or all of its components. Also, the introduction of new types or sizes of read/write heads and new disk drive designs tends to decrease customers' yields with the result that the Company may experience a temporary elevation of demand for some types of suspension assemblies. The advent of new heads and new drive designs may require rapid development and implementation of new suspension types which may temporarily reduce the Company's manufacturing yields and efficiencies. There can be no assurance that such changes will not continue to affect the Company. The Company expects that the expanding use of smaller computers, increasingly complex software and the emergence of new applications for disk storage that have contributed to the historical year-to-year increases in disk drive production will continue for the foreseeable future. However, the Company believes demand for drives will continue to be subject, as it has in the past, to rapid short-term changes resulting from, among other things, changes in disk drive inventory levels, responses to competitive price changes and unpredicted high or low market acceptance of new drive models. In August of 1988, the Company and hundreds of other corporations were informed that they are "potentially responsible parties" under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) as generators of hazardous waste disposed of at a waste site in Gary, Indiana. In December of 1989, the Company settled its potential liability under a cost recovery action by paying $9,000 of the surface cleanup costs (estimated to have been more than $2,000,000 in the aggregate). The settlement did not resolve the potential liability, if any, of the Company for future cleanup costs relating to soil and ground water contamination. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) notified the Company in September 1993 of its further potential liability for reimbursement of the cost of future additional cleanup of the Gary, Indiana site, in connection with the Company's status as a "potentially responsible party" under CERCLA. The Company responded to the USEPA that it is willing to cooperate with the agency to resolve its potential liability regarding this site, and informing the USEPA that the Company previously had entered into a settlement agreement with other potentially responsible parties, under which the Company may be entitled to indemnification for some or all of the liabilities referred to in the USEPA notice. To the Company's knowledge, no formal investigation or assessment has been done of the magnitude of the soil and ground water contamination at the Gary, Indiana site and there are no formal estimates of which the Company is aware concerning the total cleanup cost. In October of 1992, the Company was notified that it may be liable for investigation and remediation expenses incurred pursuant to CERCLA for a facility located in Greer, South Carolina. The notification indicated that nearly 600 entities shipped wastes to the site between 1987 and 1991, and identified the Company as a "potentially responsible party" at the site. In December of 1992, the Company joined a group of many other corporations as "potentially responsible parties" to initiate voluntary surface cleanup at the site. The Company's contribution to the cost of the surface cleanup preliminarily is estimated at $8,500. The Company and certain users of the Company's products have from time to time received, and may in the future receive, communications from third parties asserting patents against the Company or its customers which may relate to certain of the Company's products or to products which include the 10 Company's products as a component. Although the Company has not been a party to any material intellectual property litigation, certain of its customers have been sued on patents having claims closely related to products sold by the Company. In the event any third party were to make a valid infringement claim and a license were not available on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company's operating results could be adversely affected. The Company is party to certain other claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such claims will not materially affect the Company's current or future financial position or results of operations. 11 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 4.
