All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of December 31, 1995, the results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 have been included. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but which are not required for interim reporting purposes, have been omitted. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995. The Company's income (loss) per share and share data in the financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the 2.95- for-1 stock split declared in connection with the public offering by the Company of its Common Stock in April, 1995. NOTE 2--LEGAL MATTERS AND CONTINGENCIES In the ordinary course of its business, the Company becomes involved in lawsuits, administrative proceedings and governmental investigations, including antitrust, environmental, product liability and regulatory agency and other matters. In some of these proceedings, plaintiffs may seek to recover large and sometimes unspecified amounts and the matters may remain unresolved for several years. On the basis of information furnished by counsel and others, the Company does not believe that these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its business or financial condition. The Company is subject to contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations at one of its former distribution centers that may require the Company to take remediation efforts. In fiscal 1994, the Company accrued $4.1 million to cover future consulting, legal, and remediation and ongoing monitoring costs. The accrued liability, which is reflected in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet ($3.9 million at December 31, 1995), is based on an engineering analysis prepared by outside consultants and represents an estimate of the extent of contamination and choice of remedy, existing technology and presently enacted laws and regulations. However, changes in remediation standards, improvements in cleanup technology and discovery of additional information concerning the site could affect the estimated liability in the future. The Company is investigating the possibility of asserting claims against responsible parties for recovery of these costs. Whether or not any recovery may be forthcoming is unknown at this time, although the Company intends to vigorously enforce its rights and remedies. The Company has received notices from the Internal Revenue Service asserting deficiencies in federal corporate income taxes for the Company's taxable years 1987 through 1991. The proposed adjustments indicate a net increase to taxable income for these years of approximately $24 million and relate principally to the deductibility of costs incurred with respect to the leveraged buyout transaction which occurred in 1988. The Company has analyzed these matters with tax counsel and believes it has meritorious defenses to the deficiencies asserted by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company will contest the asserted deficiencies through the administrative appeals process and, if necessary, litigation. The Company believes that any amounts assessed will not have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company. 7 AMERISOURCE HEALTH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)--(CONTINUED) In November 1993, the Company, along with six other wholesale distributors and twenty-four pharmaceutical manufacturers, were named as defendants in a series of purported class action antitrust lawsuits alleging violations of various antitrust laws associated with the chargeback pricing system. In addition, the Company is a party to a parallel suit filed in state court in Minnesota. Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, treble damages, attorneys' fees, and costs. In October 1994, the Company entered into a Judgement Sharing Agreement with other wholesaler and pharmaceutical manufacturer defendants. Under the Judgement Sharing Agreement (a) the manufacturer defendants agreed to reimburse the wholesaler defendants for litigation costs incurred, up to an aggregate of $9 million; and (b) if a judgement is entered into against both manufacturers and wholesalers, the total exposure for joint and several liability of the Company is limited to the lesser of 1% of such judgement or $1 million. In addition, the Company has released any claims that it might have had against the manufacturers for the claims presented by the plaintiffs in these lawsuits. The Judgement Sharing Agreement covers the federal court litigation as well as the cases which have been filed in various state courts. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims asserted in these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself in all of these cases. NOTE 3--EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings (loss) per share is computed on the basis of its weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented (22,170,686 and 14,750,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively) plus the dilutive effect of stock options (326,364 for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 on a fully diluted basis). Share and per share amounts prior to April 1995 have been adjusted for the 2.95-for-1 stock split effected in conjunction with the Company's public offering. NOTE 4--SUBSEQUENT EVENT In January 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all of the stock of Gulf Distribution Inc. in a cash transaction. Gulf Distribution Inc. is a Miami, Florida based wholesale pharmaceutical distributor with annualized revenues of approximately $180 million. The purchase price is expected to be approximately $25 to $35 million and the transaction will be accounted for by the purchase method. 8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 increased 14% to $1.3 billion from $1.1 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 1995. The year-to-year revenue gains reflect increases across all customer groups and the impact of the Company's expansion into new geographic markets, especially in the northeastern and western United States. Revenues of the Company's western region increased at more than triple the overall growth rate. During the three months ended December 31, 1995, sales to hospitals increased 5%, sales to independent drug store customers increased 22%, and sales to the chain drug store customer group increased 21%, as compared with the prior fiscal year. During the three months ended December 31, 1995 sales to hospitals accounted for 43% of total revenues, while sales to independent drug stores accounted for 37% and sales to chain drug stores, 20% of the total. Gross profit of $69.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 increased by 10% over the first quarter of 1995 due to the increase in revenues. As a percentage of revenues, the gross profit margin in the first quarter was 5.44% as compared to 5.60% in the prior year. The slight deterioration in gross profit margin from the prior year was due to the consolidation of certain customer groups in the hospital and chain drug store segments. Operating expenses increased by $4.0 million or 10%, in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with the prior year quarter, and as a percentage of revenues, represent 3.54% in 1996 and 3.66% in 1995. The increase of $4.0 million in fiscal 1996 is primarily due to increases in warehouse and delivery expenses relating to the volume increases and the cost of opening new distribution facilities in Orlando, Florida, and Phoenix, Arizona, as well as continued integration costs of the Sacramento, California facility opened in 1995, and the Idaho Falls facility acquired in 1995. The decrease as a percentage of revenues in fiscal 1996 is due to continued economies of scale at the Company's established locations. Operating income of $24.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 increased by 11% over the prior year quarter. As a percentage of revenues, the Company's operating margin declined to 1.90% in 1996 from 1.94% in 1995. Interest expense of $9.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 represents a decrease of $8.2 million or 47% compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to the redemption, in January, 1995 of the $166.1 million of 14 1/2% senior subordinated notes, the redemption, in May 1995, of $74.3 million of 11 1/4% senior debentures, and lower average borrowing rates due to the implementation of the receivables securitization financing in December 1994, and reductions in the borrowing rates of the Company's revolving credit facility which was amended in December 1994. Average borrowings during the quarter ended December 31, 1995 were $461 million as compared to $572 million in the prior year. The income tax provision for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 was computed based on an estimate of the full year effective tax rate. The extraordinary charge in fiscal 1995 of $15.4 million, net of a tax benefit of $3.7 million, relates to the amendment of the revolving credit facility and the redemption of the 14 1/2% senior subordinated notes and the consequent write-off of unamortized financing fees and redemption premiums paid in the prior year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the three-month period ended December 31, 1995, the Company's operating activities used $52.4 million in cash. The increase of $143.3 in merchandise inventories offset by the $85.2 million increase in accounts payables accounted for most of the use of funds. The increases in inventories and accounts payable reflect the timing of seasonal purchases and related payments as well as increased purchases in anticipation of manufacturer price increases. A portion of the increase in inventories during the quarter was also due to the opening of the Phoenix, Arizona and Orlando, Florida distribution facilities and the growth of the facilities in the northeastern and western United States opened during fiscal 1995. Operating cash uses during the three month period ended December 31, 1995 included $6.7 million in interest payments and $13,000 in income tax payments. 9 Capital expenditures for the three months ended December 31, 1995 were $3.3 million and relate principally to the opening of the Orlando, Florida and Phoenix, Arizona distribution centers and equipment purchases for the Company's repackaging operation. Investments in management information systems and warehouse improvements are expected to continue throughout the year. Cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 represents borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility and its receivable securitization financing primarily to fund its working capital requirements. As a result of the Company's initial public offering in April 1995, and its financial results, the borrowing rate alternatives under its Credit Agreement were reduced by 1.0% to LIBOR plus 1.25% and the prime rate plus zero beginning in October 1995. At December 31, 1995, borrowings under the Company's $380 million revolving credit facility were $199 million (at an average interest rate of 7.8%) and borrowings under the $285 million Receivables Program were $234 million (at an average interest rate of 6.4%). An increase in interest rates would adversely affect the Company's operating results and the cash flow available after debt service to fund operations and expansion and, if permitted to do so under its revolving credit facility, to pay dividends on its capital stock. The Company's operating results have generated sufficient cash flows which, together with borrowings under its debt agreements and credit terms from suppliers, have provided sufficient capital resources to finance working capital and cash operating requirements, fund capital expenditures, and interest currently payable on outstanding debt. The Company's primary ongoing cash requirements will be to fund payment of interest on indebtedness, finance working capital, and fund capital expenditures and routine growth and expansion through new business opportunities. Future cash flows from operations and borrowings are expected to be sufficient to fund the Company's ongoing cash requirements. In January 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase all of the stock of Gulf Distribution Inc. in a cash transaction. The Company anticipates the transaction will be closed in February and will be funded by borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Gulf Distribution Inc. is a Miami, Florida based wholesaler with annualized revenues of approximately $180 million. The purchase price is expected to be approximately $25 to $35 million subject to an audit of the closing balance sheet. The Company is subject to certain contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations at one of its former distribution centers that may require remediation efforts. In fiscal 1994, the Company accrued a liability of $4.1 million to cover future consulting, legal and remediation, and ongoing monitoring costs. The accrued liability, which is reflected in other long-term liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, is based on an estimate of the extent of contamination and choice of remedy, existing technology, and presently enacted laws and regulations, however, changes in remediation standards, improvements in cleanup technology, and discovery of additional information concerning the site could affect the estimated liability in the future. The Company is investigating the possibility of asserting claims against responsible parties for recovery of these costs. Whether or not any recovery may be forthcoming is unknown at this time. 10 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6.
