FORM 10-Q SIX MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 1996 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 29, 1996, the consolidated statements of operations for the six months and quarters ended February 29, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months then ended have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at February 29, 1996 and for all periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's August 31, 1995 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the six months ended February 29, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. 2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY During the six months ended February 29, 1996, stockholders' equity decreased due to: Net loss $(857,000) Reduction in unearned employee benefit expense 106,000 Reduction in additional paid in capital resulting from the allocation of ESOP shares (9,000) Exercise of stock options 174,000 Purchase of stock under the Unitel Video, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan 7,000 --------- Total decrease in stockholders' equity $(579,000) --------- --------- 3. PER SHARE DATA Per share data for the quarter and six months ended February 29, 1996 and 1995 is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In the quarter and six months ended February 29, 1996, unreleased Employee Stock Ownership Plan shares are not considered outstanding for earnings per share calculations. (See Note 4). 8 4. 401(k) EMPLOYEE SAVINGS AND STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings and stock ownership plan (the "Plan") which requires the Company to match employee contributions to the 401(k) portion of the Plan in shares of the Company's Common Stock up to the maximum amount set forth in the Plan. Effective September 1, 1994, the Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Position 93-6, "Employer's Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans" ("SOP 93-6"). In 1987, to purchase 115,849 shares of the Company's stock, the Plan obtained financing from a bank amounting to $1,250,000. In 1991 the Plan purchased 25,810 shares of the Company's stock financed by a $229,193 loan from the Company. The Plan is funded by the Company as required to provide the Plan with the funds necessary to meet its debt service requirements. The loan obligations of the Plan are considered unearned employee benefit expense and are recorded as a separate reduction of the Company's shareholders' equity. The bank financing is guaranteed by the Company. The Plan's shares are released and allocated to participant accounts based upon Company contributions and certain payments made to reduce the Plan debt. The Company reports compensation expense based on the dollar value of the 401(k) match expense. The Plan's compensation expense was $98,012 and $49,006 for the six months and quarter ended February 29, 1996, respectively. A summary of the Plan's shares as of February 29, 1996 is as follows: Allocated shares 75,095 Shares released for allocation 16,898 Unreleased shares 45,275 -------- 137,268 -------- -------- Fair value of unreleased shares at February 29, 1996 $337,000 -------- -------- Prior to adoption of SOP 93-6, the unreleased shares were considered outstanding for the earnings per share computation. Accordingly, for the six months ended February 29, 1996, 45,275 shares were no longer considered outstanding. The effect of adopting SOP 93-6 was not material on the net income, and resulted in a decrease of 1% on the net loss per share for the six months and quarter ended February 29, 1996. 5. IMPAIRMENT AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long- Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" ("FASB Statement No. 121") which provides guidance on when to assess and how to measure impairment of long-lived assets, certain intangibles and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. The Company adopted FASB Statement No. 121 as of August 31, 1995. 9 The Company has determined to focus its resources toward providing services to the entertainment and corporate communications areas, which represent the Company's strength. As part of this strategy, the Company decided to sell its Editel New York, Editel Chicago and Editel Los Angeles divisions, which specialize in the highly competitive commercial advertising portion of the video facilities industry. During the 1995 fiscal year, the three Editel divisions incurred a pretax loss of $3,682,000. As a result, the Company identified property, plant and equipment associated with these divisions, which after an impairment charge of $4,700,000 recorded as of August 31, 1995, had a carrying value of approximately $19,300,000 that it no longer needed for its current and future operations. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company committed to a plan to dispose of them and in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 began marketing these divisions to potential buyers. On February 22, 1996, the Company announced the closure of its Editel Chicago division and subsequently distributed a portion of the division's assets throughout the Company. In May 1996 the balance of the Editel Chicago division equipment estimated to have a carrying value of $1,300,000 is to be sold in an auction. Also in February 1996, the Company refocused the Editel New York division on that division's most profitable segments, so as to increase its attractiveness to potential strategic buyers. As part of this restructuring, the staff of Editel New York was reduced by over fifty percent. Although the Company intends to sell the assets of Editel New York and Los Angeles within one year there is no assurance that it will be able to do so, and, therefore, these assets are classified in the balance sheet as long-term. At February 29, 1996 the Company estimated the revised value of these assets to be approximately $15,500,000. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $1,739,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1996 relating to the assets at all three Editel divisions. The impairment charge recorded represents management's estimate of the decrease in value of these assets during the first six months of fiscal 1996 based upon the depreciation method which the Company has used in the past and which management has found to be reasonable and appropriate. The Company intends to operate the New York and Los Angeles Editel divisions until a sale or other disposition is consummated and to continue to monitor these assets held for sale on a quarterly basis since FASB Statement No. 121 requires that no further depreciation expense be taken with respect to assets held for sale. In May of 1995, the Company adopted a plan to downsize the operations of its Editel Chicago division and reorganize and reduce its corporate management which resulted in recording a restructuring charge of $400,000 for severance and early retirement expense. The $273,000 balance of the restructuring liability was paid out during the first six months of fiscal 1996. 6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company intends to remain on APB Opinion No. 25 for Stock based compensation recognition purposes. 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company is committed to keeping pace with technological developments as well as taking advantage of new business opportunities in the video communications industry. Capital expenditures were $4,464,000 during the six months ended February 29, 1996, and consisted of the purchase of post production and graphics equipment for use primarily in the Company's Mobile, Unitel Holywood and Windsor divisions. Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended February 29, 1996 was $3,247,000 and during the six months ended February 28, 1995 was $2,936,000. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended February 29, 1996 was offset by $4,441,000 of cash used in investing activities, which consisted primarily of capital expenditures and was supplemented by net cash provided by financing activities of $1,586,000, resulting in a net increase in cash available of $392,000. In December 1995, the Company entered into a $26 million revolving credit and term loan agreement with a financial institution, consisting of a $15 million term loan facility and an $11 million revolving credit facility. The $15 million term loan portion of the facility is payable in 59 monthly principal payments of $89,000 through November 2000 and in payments of $3,750,000 at August 31, 1996, $3,750,000 at December 31, 1996 and $2,249,000 at December 2000. The revolving credit portion of the facility is due in full in December 2000. Additionally, in December 1995 the Company obtained from a bank a $4,000,000 mortgage on its property located on West 57th Street in New York City. The mortgage is payable in equal monthly installments of $22,000 through November 2002, with a final payment of $2,152,000 due in December 2002. The proceeds of the $15 million term loan, the $4 million mortgage and $2.5 million drawn by the Company under the revolving credit facility were used in December 1995 to refinance the term loan ($8,577,000) and revolving credit facility ($9,975,000) and to repay the City of New York Industrial Revenue Bond obligation ($265,000), all then outstanding to the Company's bank lenders. The remaining $2,683,000 was used for closing costs and for payment of prior capital expenditures. The terms of the Company's new revolving credit and term loan agreement provide that the lender receive a first lien on all property, equipment and accounts receivable that are not encumbered by another lender. At February 29, 1996 $3,085,000 was outstanding under the revolving portion of the facility. 11 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Sales were $20,529,000 and $20,581,000 for the quarters ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995, respectively. Sales were $43,469,000, and $41,814,000 for the six months ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995, respectively. The increase in sales in the six month period ending February 29, 1996 was due primarily to the addition of three mobile units to the Company's fleet of seven from the acquisition by the Company in February 1995 of the business and assets of GC & Co. (formerly Greene Crowe & Company) a Burbank California based supplier of "on-location" services for the videotaping and live telecasting of concerts, cultural and other events. The Company's net loss for the quarter ended February 29, 1996 was $(1,379,000), compared to the net income of $50,000 for the comparable quarter of fiscal year 1995. The Company's net loss was $(857,000) for the six months ended February 29, 1996, compared with net income of $489,000 for the same period of the prior fiscal year. Production costs, the main component of cost of sales, consist primarily of direct labor, equipment maintenance expenses and occupancy costs. The Company's production costs, as a percentage of sales, were 76% for the quarter ended February 29, 1996, as compared to 71% for the quarter ended February 28, 1995 and were 71% and 69% for the first six months of fiscal years 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase in production costs for the quarter and six months ended February 29, 1996 as compared with the same period in the prior year is due primarily to severance costs associated with the closure of the Company's Editel Chicago division and restructuring the Company's Editel NY division. Depreciation, as a percentage of sales, was 9% and 12% for the quarters ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995, respectively, and 8% and 11% for the first six months of the 1996 and 1995 fiscal years, respectively. The decrease in the quarter and six months ended February 29, 1996 compared to the same periods in the prior year is due to the reclassification of the net property and equipment of the Editel divisions to net assets held for sale at August 31, 1995. The impairment charge recorded represents management's estimate of the decrease in value of these assets during the second quarter and initial six month period of fiscal 1996 based upon the method of depreciation which the Company has used in the past and which management has found to be reasonable and appropriate. The Editel Chicago division was closed in February 1996. The Company intends to operate the Editel NY and Los Angeles divisions until a sale or other disposition is consummated and to continue to monitor these assets held for sale on a quarterly basis since FASB Statement No. 121 requires that no further depreciation expense be taken with respect to assets held for sale. Selling expenses for the quarters ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995 were 3.2% and 3.6% of sales, respectively, and 3.1% and 3.6% for the six months ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995, respectively. The decrease in both the quarter and six month periods ending February 29, 1996 as compared to the same periods in 1995 is primarily due to a decrease in the sales staff at the three Editel divisions. 12 General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, for the quarters ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995 were 12% and 10%, respectively, and 11% and 10% for the six months ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995, respectively. The increases in both the quarter and six month periods ending February 29, 1996 as compared to the same periods in 1995 is due primarily to severance pay at the Editel Chicago and New York divisions. Interest expense, as a percentage of sales, for the quarters ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995 was 4.5% and 3.6%, respectively, and 4.1% and 3.5% for the six months ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995. The increase in the quarter and six months ended February 29, 1996 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 1995 was due primarily to the financing obtained as a result of the GC & Co. acquisition in February 1995. The Company did not accrue income taxes during the first six months of 1996 due to the year to date loss and the unavailability of any net operating loss carryback. The Company's effective tax rate was 47% for the first six months of fiscal 1995. The effective tax rate in 1995 exceeded the federal statutory rate of 34% due to state and local taxes. 13 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security-Holders (a) The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company was held on February 14, 1996.
