NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of ADTRAN, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements are not included herein. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. The interim statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. 2. INVENTORY At December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1997, inventory consisted of the following: December 31, June 30, 1996 1997 Raw materials $24,454,251 $30,847,510 Work in progress 2,963,220 5,723,930 Finished goods 13,375,175 18,347,812 ----------- ----------- $40,792,646 $54,919,252 3. THE ALABAMA STATE INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY The Company's long-term debt outstanding as of June 30, 1997,consisted of a loan in the amount of $50,000,000 related to the expansion of the Company's facilities in Huntsville, Alabama. The Company is continuing a project to expand its facilities in Huntsville in phases over the next four years at a cost expected to exceed $100,000,000, of which $43,331,614 had been incurred at June 30, 1997. The debt associated with $50,000,000 of this project has been approved for participation in an incentive program offered by the Alabama State Industrial Development Authority (the "Authority"). That incentive program enables participating companies such as the Company to generate Alabama corporate income tax credits that can be used to reduce the amount of Alabama corporate income taxes that would otherwise be payable. There can be no assurance that the State of Alabama will continue to make these corporate income tax credits available in the future, and the Company therefore may not realize the full benefit of these incentives. The Company will make payments to the Authority in amounts necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the Authority's Taxable Revenue Bond, Series 1995 (ADTRAN, Inc. Project), as amended, currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000. Said bond matures on January 1, 2020, and bears interest at the rate of 45 basis points over the money market rate of First Union National Bank of Tennessee. 4. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 supersedes existing generally accepted accounting principles relative to the calculation of earnings per share, is effective for years ending after December 15, 1997 and requires restatement of all prior period earnings per share information upon adoption. Generally, SFAS 128 requires a calculation of basic earnings per share, which takes into consideration income (loss) available to common shareholders and the weighted average of common shares outstanding. SFAS 128 also requires the calculation of diluted earnings per share, which takes into account the impact of all additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares relating to options, warrants, and convertible securities had been issued, as long as their effect is dilutive, with a related adjustment of income available for common shareholders, as appropriate. SFAS 128 requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per share computation. The Company does not expect the effect of its adoption of SFAS 128 to be material. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview ADTRAN, Inc. (the "Company") designs, develops, manufactures, markets and services a broad range of high speed digital transmission products utilized by telephone companies ("Telcos") and corporate end-users to implement advanced digital data services over existing telephone networks. The Company currently sells its products to Telcos (including all of the Regional Bell Operating Companies), Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEMs") and, since 1991, private end-users in the Customer Premises Equipment ("CPE") market. The Company's sales have increased each year, with the exception of the second quarter of 1997, due primarily to increases in the number of units sold to both new and existing customers. These annual sales increases reflect the Company's strategy of increasing unit volume and market share through the introduction of succeeding generations of products having lower selling prices and increased functionality as compared to the prior generation of a product and to the products of competitors. An important part of the Company's strategy is to engineer the reduction of the product cost of each succeeding product generation and then to lower the product's price based on the cost savings achieved. As a part of this strategy, the Company seeks in most instances to be a low cost, high quality provider of products in its markets. The Company's success to date is attributable in large measure to its ability to initially design its products with a view to their subsequent re-design, allowing efficient enhancements of the product in each succeeding product generation. This strategy has enabled the Company to sell succeeding generations of products to existing customers as well as to increase its market share by selling these enhanced products to new customers. The Company intends to retain all earnings for use in the development of its business and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. When used in this Form 10-Q, the words "believe," "anticipate," "think," "intend," "will be," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by the Company which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect the Company's business, including the disclosures made in other periodic reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, when appropriate, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Results of Operations - Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 Sales The Company's sales decreased 6.6% from $63,305,259 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $59,125,208 in the three months ended June 30, 1997. However, sales increased 2.1% from $117,849,700 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $120,355,392 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. The increased sales resulted from an increase in sales volume to existing customers and from increased market penetration. Sales to Telcos decreased 13.4% from $40,333,248 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $34,944,502 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased less than 1% from $72,718,633 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $72,152,599 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. The decrease in Telco sales in the 1997 period resulted primarily from decreased sales of Integrated Services Digital Network ("ISDN") products and Digital Data Service ("DDS") products. Telco sales as a percentage of total sales decreased from 63.7% in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 59.1% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased from 61.7% in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to 60.0% in the six months ended June 30, 1997. Sales of CPE products increased 30.7% from $15,582,164 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $20,361,008 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased 23.4% from $30,725,374 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $37,929,951 in the six months ended June 30, 1997, as a result of increased CPE sales of ISDN products and T1 Service Unit ("TSU") products. OEM sales decreased 48.3% from $7,389,848 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $3,819,698 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased 28.7% from $14,405,693 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $10,272,842 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. This decrease was attributable primarily to reduced demand related to mature programs combined with the low volume normally encountered on new programs. Additionally, the Company has converted numerous products originally developed under OEM contract status to ADTRAN standard product status. This conversion was accomplished with permission from the OEM contract holders and was done to allow the Company to pursue markets directly that will no longer support a two-tier distribution structure. The financial effect of the increase in overall unit volume was offset somewhat by lower unit selling prices for many of the Company's products. Cost of Sales Cost of sales decreased 8.6% from $33,370,298 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $30,493,144 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased 3.7% from $62,230,572 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $59,931,941 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased from 52.7% in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 51.6% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased from 52.8% in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to 49.8%in the six months ended June 30, 1997. An important part of the Company's strategy is to reduce the product cost of each succeeding product generation and then to lower the product's price based on the cost savings achieved. This strategy sometimes results in variations in the Company's gross profit margin due to timing differences between the recognition of cost reductions and the lowering of product selling prices. In view of the rapid pace of new product introductions by the Company, this strategy may result in variations in gross profit margins that, for any particular financial period, can be difficult to predict. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 33.5% from $7,959,675 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $10,624,484 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased 39.1% from $15,217,363 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $21,161,999 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. The increase was due to additional sales and support expenditures necessary as a result of the Company's expanded sales base, increased distribution activities associated with the CPE market, and general expansion into international markets. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased from 12.6% in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 18.0% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased from 12.9% in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to 17.6% in the six months ended June 30, 1997. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses increased 25.0% from $6,173,695 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $7,716,639 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased 26.6% from $11,624,120 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $14,711,897 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. The increase was due to increased engineering costs associated with new product introductions and product cost and feature enhancement activities. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses increased from 9.8% in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 13.1% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased from 9.9% in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to 12.2% in the six months ended June 30, 1997. Interest Expense Interest expense increased 204.9% from $166,834 in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $508,665 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increased 68.1% from $446,870 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $751,199 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. The increase was due to interest cost incurred as a part of the cost of acquiring certain assets. The Company paid interest on $50,000,000 of revenue bond proceeds of which $20,000,000 was loaned to the Company in January 1995 and $30,000,000 was loaned to the Company in April 1997. The proceeds are being used to expand the Company's facilities in Huntsville, Alabama. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below. Net Income As a result of the above factors, net income decreased 32.5% from $10,340,221 in the three months ended June 30, 1996, to $6,980,273 in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased 13.0% from $18,963,609 in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $16,502,542 in the six months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of sales, net income decreased from 16.3% in the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 11.8% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 and decreased from 16.1% in the six months ended June 30, 1996 to 13.7% in the six months ended June 30, 1997. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company is continuing a project to expand its facilities in Huntsville, Alabama in phases over the next four years at a cost expected to exceed $100,000,000 of which $43,331,614 had been incurred at June 30, 1997. The debt associated with $50,000,000 of this project has been approved for participation in an incentive program offered by the Alabama State Industrial Development Authority (the "Authority"). That incentive program enables participating companies such as the Company to generate Alabama corporate income tax credits that can be used to reduce the amount of Alabama corporate income taxes that would otherwise be payable. There can be no assurance that the State of Alabama will continue to make these corporate income tax credits available in the future, and the Company therefore may not realize the full benefit of these incentives. The Company will make payments to the Authority in amounts necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the Authority's Taxable Revenue Bond, Series 1995 (ADTRAN, Inc. Project), as amended, currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000. Said bond matures on January 1, 2020 and bears interest at the rate of 45 basis points over the money market rate of First Union National Bank. The Company's working capital position declined from $140,509,802 as of December 31, 1996 to $126,898,432 as of June 30, 1997. This decline was due to a reclassification of the Company's investments in the amount of $20,000,000 that were classified as a short-term investment at December 31, 1996 and reinvested on April 25, 1997 as a long-term investment. The Company has used, and expects to continue to use, the remaining proceeds of prior public offerings for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including (i) product development activities to enhance its existing products and develop new products and (ii) expansion of sales and marketing activities. Inventory increased 34.6% from December 31, 1996 to June 30, 1997. This increase was attributable to the introduction of new products and to lower than anticipated sales volume. On March 31, 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. As of June 30, 1997, the Company had repurchased 100,000 shares of its common stock at a total cost of $2,200,000. Capital expenditures totaling $29,661,438 in 1996 and $11,814,233 in the first six months of 1997 were used to expand the Company's headquarters and to purchase equipment. At June 30, 1997, the Company's cash on hand of $21,578,144, investments of $28,533,240 and $10,000,000 available under a $10,000,000 bank line of credit placed the Company's potential cash availability at $60,111,384, of which a portion is being used to expand the Company's facilities under the incentive program described above. The Company's $10,000,000 bank line of credit bears interest at the rate of 87.5 basis points over the 30 day London inter-bank offered rate. The Company intends to renew its $10,000,000 bank line of credit upon expiration. The Company intends to finance its operations in the future with cash flow from operations, the remaining net proceeds of the public offerings, amounts available under the bank line of credit, borrowed taxable revenue bond proceeds, and possible additional public financings. These available sources of funds are expected to be adequate to meet the Company's operating and capital needs for the foreseeable future. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 4.
