NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
JUNE 30, 1996
1. STATEMENT OF INFORMATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore
do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual
financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in (i) the
Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September
30, 1995, and (ii) the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 1996. In the
opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
necessary for a fair presentation of the balance sheets and statements of
income and of cash flows for such interim periods presented. The results
of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the
entire fiscal year. The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
ORGANIZATION
Greenwich Air Services, Inc. ("GASI") and its subsidiaries (collectively,
the "Company") overhauls, repairs, and refurbishes gas turbine engines
and components used in aviation, marine and industrial applications. The
Company also manages government and military service and maintenance
programs, and provides management services for the sale, refurbishment
and installation of complete gas turbine power plants.
On June 10, 1996, the Company, through its newly-formed, wholly-owned
subsidiary GASI Engine Services Corporation, purchased (a) substantially
all of the assets and business of the commercial engine services
divisions (the "CES Divisions") of Aviall, Inc. ("Aviall"), and (b) all
of the issued and outstanding shares of Aviall Limited, a subsidiary of
Aviall (collectively, the "Former Aviall Operations"). The CES Divisions
included (i) all of the engine repair and overhaul operations of Aviall
located in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas and (ii) the components and parts
repair business of Aviall located in McAllen, Texas. Aviall Limited,
which has been renamed Greenwich Caledonian Limited ("Greenwich
Caledonian") operated an engine repair and overhaul facility in
Prestwick, Scotland. (See Note 6.)
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
Greenwich Caledonian utilizes the U.S. dollar as its functional currency.
Translation gains and losses are included in its earnings.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") 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 ("SFAS No. 121"). SFAS No. 121 establishes accounting standards for
the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable 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.
SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. SFAS No. 121 will apply to the
Company as of the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. The Company has
not assessed the impact of adopting this pronouncement.
6
In October 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (SFAS No.
123). SFAS No. 123 does not rescind or interpret existing accounting
rules for employee stock-based arrangements. Under SFAS No. 123, the
Company may continue to follow existing rules to recognize and measure
compensation, but they will now be required to disclose the pro forma
amounts of net income and earnings per share that would have to be
reported had the Company elected to follow the "fair value" recognition
provisions of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123 will apply to the Company for
the year ending September 30, 1997. The Company has not determined
whether it will elect to recognize and measure compensation expense under
SFAS No. 123 and has not yet determined its effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.
2. INVENTORIES
Inventories are comprised of the following: June 30, September 30,

TOTAL $266,130 $120,933
======== ========
3 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Primary earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding. Common share
equivalents include dilutive stock options and stock warrants using the
treasury stock method.
Fully diluted earnings per share assumes, in addition to the above, (a)
that convertible debentures and debenture warrants were converted at the
beginning of each period with earnings being increased for interest
expense, net of taxes, that would not have been incurred had conversion
taken place and (b) the additional dilutive effect of stock options.
4. CAPITAL STOCK AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company is authorized to issue 25,000,000 shares of Class A common
stock, $.01 par value; 25,000,000 shares of Class B non-voting common
stock, $.01 par value; and 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par
value.
During the nine months ended June 30, 1996, $11,491,000 of the Company's
8% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2000 (the "Debentures") were
converted into 1,024,318 shares of Class A common stock. Also during the
nine months ended June 30, 1996 warrants for the purchase of stock and
Debentures were exercised and converted into 130,579 shares of Class A
and 30,742 shares of Class B common stock. Stock options exercised during
the nine months ended June 30, 1996 resulted in the issue of 35,875
shares of Class A and 20,000 shares of Class B common stock.
On May 8, 1996, the Company paid a dividend of one share of the Company's
Class B common stock to holders of record of each share of Class A common
stock on April 18, 1996. Retained earnings was charged $63,221 during the
nine months ended June 30, 1996 as a result of the issuance of 6,322,147
shares of Class B common stock. All income per share, dividend per share,
common shares outstanding, and price per share information has been
retroactively restated to reflect this stock dividend.
On June 4, 1996, the Company sold 3,400,000 shares of Class B common
stock through a public offering (the
7
"Class B Offering") that generated proceeds of approximately $80.7
million, (net of $4.3 million in related expenses). Proceeds from this
offering were used primarily to fund the Aviall Acquisition (see Note 6).
5. DEBT
SENIOR NOTES
On June 4, 1996, the Company sold $160 million principal amount of 10
1/2% Senior Notes due 2006 (the "Senior Notes" or the "Notes") through a
public offering. Proceeds from this offering, net of underwriting
discounts and expenses approximating $5.0 million, were used primarily to
fund the Aviall Acquisition (see Note 6). The Notes are senior unsecured
obligations of the Company, which rank PARI PASSU with all unsubordinated
unsecured indebtedness of the Company, and rank senior in right of
payment to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness of the
Company. The Notes are also guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by
each of the Company's domestic subsidiaries (the "Guarantor
Subsidiaries") and are secured by a pledge of 65% of the capital stock of
Greenwich Caledonian (the "Collateral Subsidiary"). (See Note 9.)
LONG TERM DEBT
Concurrently with the consummation of the Class B Offering and the sale
of the Senior Notes, the Company refinanced certain existing indebtedness
through the "New Credit Facility", comprised of two senior secured
revolving credit facilities in the aggregate amount of $175 million,
secured by the Company's accounts receivable, inventories and contract
rights. Advances under the New Credit Facility are based upon percentages
of outstanding eligible accounts receivable and inventories, and are
borrowed at either (i) the lender's prime rate plus 0.875% or (ii) the
London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 2.375%. Expenses related to
the refinancing of the New Credit Facility aggregated $2.8 million, and
were recorded as deferred financing costs.
In addition, Greenwich Caledonian has borrowings directly from a
financial institution in the United Kingdom. Greenwich Caledonian's
credit facility consists of a /pound sterling/ 4.0 million ($6.2 million
as of June 30, 1996) unsecured overdraft facility payable on demand (the
"Overdraft Facility"). Borrowings under the Overdraft Facility bear
interest at the LIBOR rate plus 1.625%.
6. ACQUISITION OF NET ASSETS (THE "AVIALL ACQUISITION")
On June 10, 1996, the Company, through its newly-formed, wholly-owned
subsidiary GASI Engine Services Corporation, purchased the Former Aviall
Operations.
For purposes of closing, the purchase price (paid in cash) was estimated
at $226.9 million (based upon the book value of the acquired assets, net
of assumed liabilities). The final purchase price will be determined
based upon the audited balance sheets as of June 10, 1996, subject to the
terms detailed in the purchase agreement.
The funds used for the acquisition were provided by the Class B Offering
(see Note 4), the sale of the Senior Notes (see Note 5), and borrowings
under the New Credit Facility (see Note 5). The acquisition has been
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and therefore the
accompanying financial statements include the accounts of GASI Engine
Services Corporation since June 10, 1996. Prior to June 10, 1996, GASI
Engine Services Corporation had no operations.
The allocation of the estimated purchase price to the net assets acquired
and to the individual subsidiaries is based on currently available
information and estimates as of the date of the financial statements.
Adjustments to the purchase price and to its allocation to the net assets
acquired may occur for a period of up to twelve months from the date of
purchase as management obtains the information necessary (such as the
audited June 10, 1996 balance sheet described above and appraisals of the
net assets acquired) to finalize this allocation.
8
There is a possibility of significant future adjustments to the purchase
price and its allocation.
The following is a summary of the computation of the estimated net
purchase price and the estimated allocation of that price to the assets
and liabilities acquired as of June 10, 1996, taking into consideration
other direct costs of the acquisition:

7. OTHER STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS INFORMATION
Cash paid for interest was $5,604,000 and $4,914,000 for the nine months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Cash paid for income taxes was
$6,356,000 and $2,460,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
During the nine months ended June 30, 1996, $11,491,000 of the Company's 8%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2000 were converted into 1,024,318
shares of Common Stock. Unamortized deferred issue costs of $872,915
applicable to the Debentures converted were charged to additional paid in
capital. The unamortized deferred issue costs are determined at the date of
conversion.
During the nine months ended June 30, 1996, 124,721 shares of the Company's
common stock were issued in connection with the cashless exercise of
warrants to purchase debentures and shares of common stock.
Non-cash assets and liabilities obtained in the Aviall Acquisition
described in Note 6 were:
Amounts in thousands
Current assets $258,450
Property, plant and equipment $106,687
Current liabilities $103,293
Non-current liabilities $34,907
8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the nine months ended June 30, 1996, the Company purchased engine
parts totaling $8,000 from a company affiliated through common ownership.
Also during the nine months ended June 30, 1996, the Company performed
engine repair services totaling $18,500 for this same affiliate, and
$150,000 for another company affilliated through common ownership.
In May, 1996, the Company completed the servicing of an engine partly owned
by a company affiliated through common ownership, which services aggregated
to $639,500. This affiliate is a passive investor with a minority interest
in, and no management control of the engine serviced.
The terms of the above transactions are believed by the Company's
management to have been on a market basis not materially different from
those which would have prevailed in a transaction on an arms-length basis
with an unrelated person.
10
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 increased $48.7 million to $99.6
million from third quarter 1995 sales of $50.9 million. The increase in net
sales was due to the inclusion of Aviall's commercial engine service operations
in Texas and Scotland since their acquisition by the Company on June 10, 1996,
as well as a 16% increase in revenues from the Company's existing operations.
Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 increased to $12.7 million, or
12.7% of net sales, from $8.2 million, or 16.0% of net sales, for the same
period last year, primarily as a result of the increase in net sales for the
period. The decline in gross profit as a percentage of sales is principally the
result of sales generated by the Former Aviall Operations in the twenty days
since their acquisition, which have historically returned lower margins.
Operating margins for the Former Aviall Operations are expected to improve in
the future as the Company executes its integration plan, consisting, in part, of
consolidation and integration of support functions and management systems, and
the elimination of certain duplicative corporate overhead charges. Among other
things, this plan is intended to reduce costs and improve operating
efficiencies, including the reduction of engine turnaround times and related
contractual penalties
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal
1996 increased to $5.4 million, or 5.4% of net sales, from $3.2 million, or 6.3%
of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1995. The increase is primarily
attributed to the inclusion of the Former Aviall Operations.
Interest expense for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 increased to $2.8 million,
or 2.8% of net sales, from $2.1 million or 4.1% of net sales for the third
quarter of fiscal 1995, primarily due to the increase in outstanding borrowings
related to the New Credit Facility and the issuance of the Senior Notes.
Partially offsetting this increase was a $13.9 million decrease in the average
outstanding balance of the Debentures as compared to the third quarter of 1995.
Income taxes for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 increased to $1.7 million, or
1.7% of net sales, from $1.3 million, or 2.5% of net sales for the third quarter
of fiscal 1995, primarily due to an increase in income before taxes.
As a result of the above factors, net income increased almost 50% to $2.7
million, or 2.7% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1996, from $1.8
million, or 3.6% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1995. Third
quarter fiscal 1996 primary and fully diluted earnings per share increased to
$0.20 and $0.19 per share, respectively, from $0.18 and $0.16 per share,
respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 1995, even after giving effect to
increases in the number shares outstanding of 36% and 10%, respectively.
11
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995
Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 increased $84.1 million or
62.8% to $218.2 million from net sales of $134.1million for the first nine
months of fiscal 1995. The increase in net sales was attributable to the
inclusion of the Former Aviall Operations as well as a 32% increase in revenues
at the Company's existing operations.
Gross profit for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 increased to $31.4
million, or 14.4% of net sales, from $21.4 million, or 16.0% of net sales, for
the first nine months of fiscal 1995, primarily as a result of the increase in
net sales for the period. The decline in gross profit as a percentage of sales
is principally the result of sales generated by the Former Aviall Operations,
which have historically returned lower margins.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of fiscal
1996 increased to $13.2 million, or 6.0% of net sales, from $8.7 million, or
6.5% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1995. The increase is
primarily attributable to the inclusion of the Former Aviall Operations.
Interest expense for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 increased to $6.4
million, or 2.9% of net sales, from $5.6 million or 4.2% of net sales for the
first nine months of fiscal 1995, primarily due to the increase in outstanding
borrowings related to the New Credit Facility and the issuance of the Senior
Notes. Partially offsetting this increase was a $8.7 million decrease in the
average outstanding balance of the Debentures as compared to the first nine
months of fiscal 1995.
Income taxes for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 increased to $4.6 million,
or 2.1% of net sales, from $2.9 million, or 2.2% of net sales for the first nine
months of fiscal 1995, primarily due to an increase in income before taxes.
As a result of the above factors, net income increased to $7.1 million, or 3.3%
of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1996, from $4.2 million, or
3.1% of net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1995. Nine month fiscal
1996 primary and fully diluted earnings per share increased to $0.56 and $0.54
per share, respectively, from $0.41 and $0.36 per share, respectively, for the
first nine months of fiscal 1995.
FINANCIAL POSITION
Total assets at June 30, 1996 were $577.6 million, a $392.0 million net increase
from the September 30, 1995 total of $185.6 million. The major components of
this net increase were (a) the addition of $365.1 in assets as a result of the
Aviall Acquisition (see Note 6 of the notes to unaudited consolidated financial
statements); (b) a $29.4 million increase in accounts receivable balances, and
(c) a $9.5 million net increase in deferred financing costs as a result of the
debt issue costs associated with both the Senior Notes and the New Credit
Facility. These increases were partially offset by a net decrease in inventories
of $13.7 million, which was primarily attributable to the $11.4 million bulk
sale of inventories previously acquired from Continental Airlines, Inc. (The
"CAL Inventory"). The increase in accounts receivable was primarily attributable
to higher sales late in the quarter coupled with the timing of customer
12
collections after June 30th, and the remaining balance of the sales price of the
CAL Inventory, which is due in monthly installments through December 31, 1996.
Total liabilities at June 30, 1996 were $442.2 million, a $293.4 million net
increase from the September 30, 1995 total of $148.8 million. The major
components of this net increase were (a) the assumption of $138.2 million in
liabilities as a result of the Aviall Acquisition; (b) the issuance of $160
million in Senior Notes; (c) a $28.0 million increase in borrowings under the
Company's New Credit Facility; and (d) a $7.8 million increase in accrued
expenses, customer deposits and deferred revenue, primarily the result of
advance payments received under a certain government program; offset by (e) a
$11.5 million reduction in the outstanding balance of the Company's Debentures,
resulting from the conversion of these debentures into approximately 1,024,000
shares of the Company's Class A common stock; and (f) the retirement of vendor
obligations resulting in a decrease in accounts payable of $10.7 million.
Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 1996 was $135.3 million, a $98.5 million
increase from the September 30, 1995 total of $36.8 million. This increase was
primarily due to (a) net proceeds of approximately $80.7 million from the Class
B Offering and (b) the conversion of $11.5 million of the Company's Debentures
into Class A common stock since September 30, 1995, along with net income of
more than $7.1 million.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's principal source of liquidity was cash generated from the Class B
Offering and the sale of the Senior Notes. In addition, other sources of
liquidity have been cash flows generated by continuing operations, borrowings
from commercial lenders, the bulk sale of inventories, and customer advances and
progress payments. Working capital was $267.1 million at June 30, 1996, as
compared with $87.8 million at September 30, 1995.
As of June 30, 1996 there was approximately $68.5 million outstanding under the
Company's $175 million New Credit Facility, which matures in June 2001. The
Company may be required to borrow additional amounts under the New Credit
Facility through the end of calendar 1996 in order to meet changes in its
working capital requirements.
Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations and plans for
integrating the Former Aviall Operations, the Company believes that its cash
flow from operations, combined with borrowings available under the New Credit
Facility, will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its cash operating
requirements, including scheduled interest and principal payments, capital
expenditures and working capital needs.
The Company believes that the integration of its existing operations with those
of the Former Aviall Operations will result in opportunities to improve cash
flows by capitalizing on the cost savings resulting from the elimination of
duplicative functions in the areas of administration, sales, marketing,
purchasing, technical and field services, and management information systems.
The Company anticipates, however, that it will incur expenditures of
approximately $8.5 million related to this integration, which is expected to be
completed during the third quarter of fiscal 1997. Such non-recurring
expenditures include
13
amounts related to integration of management information systems and other costs
of consolidation. These non-recurring expenditures initially will be funded
through cash flow from operations and borrowings under the New Credit Facility.
There are no legal or political restrictions on the Company's ability to
transfer funds from its foreign subsidiary.
