Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
----------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 include the accounts of Details Capital Corp. ("Details
Capital") and its wholly-owned subsidiary Details, Inc. and subsidiaries
("Details"), (collectively, the "Company"). Details Capital is wholly owned
by Details Holdings Corp., formerly Details, Inc. ("Holdings"), by virtue of a
series of transactions related to the financing of the recapitalization (the
"Recapitalization") of the Company in October 1997. The financial information
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 represents the financial information
of Holdings (the "Pre-Recapitalization Company").
In connection with the Recapitalization, Details, Inc. changed its name to
Details Holdings Corp., incorporated Details as a wholly owned subsidiary and
contributed substantially all of its assets, subject to certain liabilities,
to Details. On November 19, 1997, Holdings organized Details Capital as a
wholly-owned subsidiary, and on February 10, 1998, contributed substantially
all its assets (including all of the shares of common stock of Details),
subject to certain liabilities, including its senior discount notes ("The
Discount Notes"), to Details Capital. Other than the Discount Notes and
related financing fees and deferred tax assets, all the assets and liabilities
of Details are those of Details Capital. The transactions above were between
entities under common control, and accordingly, the historical basis of the
assets and liabilities of Holdings, Details Capital and Details were not
affected. In addition, the Details Capital condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared as if the contribution of Holdings' assets and
liabilities to Details Capital in exchange for its common stock occurred in
connection with the Recapitalization.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) to present fairly the
financial position of the Company as of March 31, 1998, and the results of
operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.
The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results of operations to be expected for the full year.
These financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such regulations, although the Company
believes the disclosures provided are adequate to prevent the information
presented from being misleading.
This report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, should be read
in conjunction with the audited financial statements presented in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
NATURE OF BUSINESS
The Company manufactures and sells printed circuit boards ("PCBs") primarily
to the domestic electronics industry. A significant portion of the Company's
sales are for the time critical segment (quick turn) of the PCB industry.
Quick turn PCBs are manufactured within 10 days.

NOTE 4. ACQUISITION OF NTI
On December 22, 1997, Details acquired all of the outstanding shares of common
stock of Colorado Springs Circuits, Inc., d/b/a NTI ("NTI"). The NTI
acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
As a result, the total acquisition cost have been allocated to the estimated
fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
Based upon management's estimate of the fair value of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed, Details recorded $26.1 million in goodwill. In March
1998, an adjustment of ($899,000) was recorded by the Company to reflect
adjustments to assets acquired at fair value and a corresponding reduction to
goodwill.
The accompanying consolidated statements of operations include the accounts of
NTI for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The unaudited pro forma
statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 which
assumes that the NTI acquisition was consummated on January 1, 1997, reflects
net sales and net income of $23.8 million and $770,000 respectively.
These unaudited pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the actual
results which would have been realized had the acquisition actually occurred
at the beginning of the period.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS.
- --------------
OVERVIEW
The Company believes, based on industry data, that it is one of the largest
domestic manufacturers and marketers of PCBs for the quick-turn segment of the
PCB industry. The Company produces PCBs for over 350 customers across a wide
range of end-use markets including the telecommunications, computer, contract
manufacturing, industrial instrumentation and consumer electronics industries.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set
forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1997.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three-Months Ended March 31, 1998 compared to the Three Months ended March 31,
1997
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1998 increased $11.9 million or
73.0% to $28.2 million from $16.3 million for the three months ended March 31,
1997. The increase resulted from two factors: (i) the acquisition of NTI, which
added $7.8 million to net sales; and (ii) a 24.4% increase in the average panel
(unit) selling price realized at the Company's Anaheim facility to $1,057 from
$850. The increase in the average panel price realized by the Anaheim facility
was driven by a demand for high layer count and more technologically advanced
printed circuit boards.
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 1998 increased $3.7 million or
45.7% to $11.8 million from $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
1997. The increase resulted from the increase in net sales at the Anaheim
facility and from the acquisition of NTI, which added $1.6 million to gross
profit. The decline in gross profit as a percent of net sales to 41.9% from
50.1% resulted from the acquisition of NTI, which has historically operated at a
lower gross profit margin, which is reflective of the market niche it serves.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March
31, 1998 increased $887,000 or 42.9% to $3.0 million from $2.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1997. The increase resulted primarily from the
acquisition of NTI, which added $640,000 to selling, general and administrative
expenses, and from additional sales commissions paid on the increased sales
base. For the three months ended March 31, 1998 selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 10.7% from
13.1% for the three months ended March 31, 1997. The decrease resulted from the
spreading of fixed costs over a larger revenue base.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998, no stock compensation or related
bonus expense was recognized as compared to $1.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1997. The stock compensation and related bonuses recognized for
the three months ended March 31, 1997 was attributable to a 1996 variable stock
option plan which was fully vested in 1997 and therefore has no impact on
earnings for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1997.
Goodwill amortization for the three months ended March 31, 1998 of $261,000
resulted from the acquisition of NTI on December 22, 1997.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998 increased $4.8
million to $7.3 million for Details Capital and $2.9 million to $5.4 million for
Details compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997. The
increase in net interest expense is attributable to the increased level of
borrowings in connection with the Recapitalization and the acquisition of NTI.
Interest expense for Details Capital included amortization of approximately $1.9
million related to the Discount Notes, not included in Details.
Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 1998 decreased $40,000 to
$635,000 for Details Capital and increased $725,000 to $1.4 million for Details
compared to $675,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. The Company
anticipates a consolidated effective income tax rate of approximately 41% for
the year
9
ending December 31, 1998 and accordingly, the Company recorded income taxes
during the three months ended March 31, 1998 based on such expected effective
income tax rate of 41%.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 decreased $176,000 to
$653,000 for Details Capital and increased $1.0 million to $1.8 million for
Details compared to $829,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 largely
due to factors discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 1998, Details Capital and Details had cash of $5.8 million
compared to $5.4 million as of December 31, 1997. The principal source of
liquidity in the first three months of 1998 was cash provided by operations.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31,
1998 was $4.8 million, compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 1997.
Capital expenditures and deposits on capital assets for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 were $3.2 million, compared to $1.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1997.
As of March 31, 1998, Details Capital had borrowings of $277.1 million and
Details had borrowings of $214.3 million, and the Company had up to $30 million
available for borrowing under its revolving credit facility. The Company's
estimated minimum principal payment obligations under its Senior Credit Facility
are $1.9 million for fiscal 1998.
Based upon the current level of operations, management believes that cash
generated from operations, available cash and amounts available under its Senior
Credit Facility will be adequate to meet its debt service requirements, capital
expenditures and working capital needs for the foreseeable future, although no
assurance can be given in this regard. Accordingly, there can be no assurance
that the Company's business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations
or that future borrowings will be available to enable the Company to service its
indebtedness. The Company is highly leveraged, and its future operating
performance and ability to service or refinance its indebtedness will be subject
to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many
of which are beyond the Company's control.
COMPUTER SYSTEMS AND YEAR 2000
The Company is currently developing a plan to insure that its systems and
software infrastructure are Year 2000 compliant. The scheduled implementation of
all phases of the plan is December 1998. Given the relatively small size of the
Company's systems and the predominately new hardware, software and operating
systems, management does not anticipate any significant delays in becoming Year
2000 compliant. However, the Company is unable to control whether its customers'
and suppliers' systems are Year 2000 compliant. To the extent that customers
would be unable to order product or pay invoices or suppliers would be unable to
manufacture and ship product, it could affect the Company's operations. However,
management does not believe that Year 2000 changes will have a material impact
on the operating results or financial condition of the Company.
10
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".
SFAS No. 130 establishes requirements for disclosure of comprehensive income and
becomes effective for the Company's fiscal year ending December 31, 1998.
Reclassification of prior year financial statements for comparative purposes is
required. The Company has no elements which give rise to comprehensive income.
This pronouncements currently has no significant impact on the reporting
practices of the Company since its adoption, and until such time the Company
diversifies its operations management believes such pronouncement will not be
applicable.
FASB has also issued Statement No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." Statement No. 131 modifies the disclosure
requirements for reportable segments and is effective for the Company's year
ending December 31, 1998. At March 31, 1998, the Company has no elements which
give rise to reporting comprehensive income.
FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
SUBSTANTIAL LEVERAGE
The Company's high degree of leverage could have significant consequences,
including: (i) a substantial portion of the Company's cash flow from operations
must be dedicated to debt service and will not be available for other purposes;
(ii) the Company's ability to obtain additional debt financing in the future for
working capital, capital expenditures, research and development or acquisitions
may be limited; (iii) the Company's leveraged position and the covenants that
are contained in the terms of its Indebtedness could limit the Company's ability
to compete, as well as its ability to expand, including through acquisitions,
and to make capital improvements; and (iv) the Company may be more leveraged
than certain of its competitors, which may place the Company at a competitive
disadvantage.
The Company's ability to pay principal and interest on the its indebtedness will
depend upon its future operating performance, which will be affected by
prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors,
certain of which are beyond its control, as well as the availability of
revolving credit borrowings. The Company anticipates that its operating cash
flow, together with borrowings will be sufficient to meet its operating expenses
and to service its debt requirements as they become due. If the Company is
unable to service its indebtedness, it will be forced to take actions such as
reducing or delaying capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or
refinancing its indebtedness or seeking additional equity capital. There is no
assurance that any of these remedies can be effected on satisfactory terms, if
at all.
RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY TERMS OF INDEBTEDNESS
The terms of the Company's indebtedness restrict, among other things, Details
Capital's and Details' ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends
or make certain other restricted payments, consummate certain asset sales, enter
into certain transactions with affiliates, incur indebtedness, merge or
consolidate with any other person or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.
Details is also required to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy
certain financial condition tests. Details' ability to meet those financial
ratios and tests can be affected by events beyond its control, and there can be
no assurance that Details will meet those tests. A breach of any of these
covenants could result in a default under some or all of, the Company's
indebtedness agreements. Upon the occurrence of an event of default lenders
under such indebtedness could elect to declare all amounts outstanding together
with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If the Company were
unable to repay such amounts, the lenders could proceed against the collateral
granted to them to secure that indebtedness. Substantially all the assets of
the Company and its subsidiaries are pledged as security under the Senior Credit
Facilities.
11
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND PROCESS DEVELOPMENT
The market for the Company's products and services is characterized by rapidly
changing technology and continuing process development. The future success of
the Company's business will depend in large part upon its ability to maintain
and enhance its technological capabilities, develop and market products and
services that meet changing customer needs, and successfully anticipate or
respond to technological changes on a cost-effective and timely basis. Research
and development expenses are expected to increase as manufacturers make demands
for higher technology and smaller PCBs. In addition, the PCB industry could in
the future encounter competition from new or revised technologies that render
existing electronic interconnect technology less competitive or obsolete or
technologies that may reduce the number of PCBs required in electronic
components. There can be no assurance that the Company will effectively respond
to the technological requirements of the changing market. To the extent the
Company determines that new technologies and equipment are required to remain
competitive, the development, acquisition and implementation of such
technologies and equipment may require significant capital investment by the
Company. There can be no assurance that capital will be available for these
purposes in the future or that investments in new technologies will result in
commercially viable technological processes. The loss of revenue and earnings to
the Company from such a technological change or process development could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
DEPENDENCE ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS
During the three months ended March 31, 1998, sales to the Company's largest
customer accounted for 11.5% of the Company's net revenues. Sales to the
Company's two largest customers accounted for approximately 20.1% of the
Company's net revenues and sales to the Company's ten largest customers
accounted for 44.2% of the Company's net revenues during the same period. There
can be no assurance that the Company will not depend upon a relatively small
number of customers for a significant percentage of its net revenues in the
future. There can be no assurance that present or future customers will not
terminate their manufacturing arrangements with the Company or significantly
change, reduce or delay the amount of manufacturing services ordered from the
Company. Any such termination of a manufacturing relationship or change,
reduction or delay in orders could have an adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations.
DEPENDENCE ON ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY
The electronics industry, which encompasses the Company's principal customers,
is characterized by intense competition, relatively short product life-cycles
and significant fluctuations in product demand. In addition, the electronics
industry is generally subject to rapid technological change and product
obsolescence. Furthermore, the electronics industry is subject to economic
cycles and has in the past experienced, and is likely in the future to
experience, recessionary periods. A recession or any other event leading to
excess capacity or a downturn in the electronics industry would likely have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
ABILITY TO IMPLEMENT THE COMPANY'S OPERATING AND ACQUISITION STRATEGY
No assurances can be given that the Company or its management team will be able
to implement successfully the operating strategy described herein, including the
ability to identify, negotiate and consummate future acquisitions on terms
management considers favorable.
The Company may from time to time pursue the acquisitions of other companies,
assets or product lines that complement or expand its existing business.
Acquisitions involve a number of risks that could adversely affect the Company's
operating results, including the diversion of management's attention, the costs
of assimilating the operations and personnel of the acquired companies, and the
potential loss of employees of the acquired companies. No assurance can be given
that any acquisition by the Company will not materially and adversely affect the
Company or that any such acquisition will enhance the Company's business. The
ability of the Company to implement its operating strategy and to consummate
future acquisitions may require significant additional debt and/or equity
capital, and no assurance can be given as to whether, and on what terms, such
12
additional debt and/or equity capital will be available.
The Company's efforts to increase international sales may be adversely affected
by, among other things, changes in foreign import restrictions and regulations,
taxes, currency exchange rates, currency and monetary transfer restrictions and
regulations and economic and political changes in the foreign nations to which
the Company's products are exported. There can be no assurance that one or more
of these factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.
VARIABILITY OF ORDERS
The level and timing of orders placed by the Company's customers vary due to a
number of factors, including customer attempts to manage inventory, changes in
the customer's manufacturing strategies and variation in demand for customer
products due to, among other things, technological change, new product
introductions, product life-cycles, competitive conditions or general economic
conditions. Because the Company generally does not obtain long-term production
orders or advance commitments from its customers, it must attempt to anticipate
the future volume of orders based on discussions with its customers. A
substantial portion of sales in a given quarter may depend on obtaining orders
for products to be manufactured and shipped in the same quarter in which those
orders are received. The Company relies on its estimate of anticipated future
volumes when making commitments regarding the level of business that it will
seek and accept, the mix of products that it intends to manufacture, the timing
of production schedules and the levels and utilization of personnel and other
resources. A variety of conditions, both specific to the individual customer and
generally affecting the customer's industry, may cause customers to cancel,
reduce or delay orders that were previously made or anticipated. The Company
cannot assure the timely replacement of canceled, delayed or reduced orders.
Significant or numerous cancellations, reductions or delays in orders by a group
of customers could materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operation.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Company's success depends in part on proprietary technology and
manufacturing techniques. The Company has no patents for these proprietary
techniques and chooses to rely primarily on trade secret protection. Litigation
may be necessary to protect the Company's technology, to determine the validity
and scope of the proprietary rights of others. The Company is not aware of any
pending or threatened claims that affect any of the Company's intellectual
property rights. If any infringement claim is asserted against the Company, the
Company may seek to obtain a license of the other party's intellectual property
rights. There is no assurance that a license would be available on reasonable
terms or at all. Litigation with respect to patents or other intellectual
property matters could result in substantial costs and diversion of management
and other resources and could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company's operations are regulated under a number of federal, state, local
and foreign environmental laws and regulations, which govern, among other
things, the discharge of hazardous materials into the air and water as well as
the handling, storage and disposal of such materials. Compliance with these
environmental laws are major considerations for all PCB manufacturers because
metals and other hazardous materials are used in the manufacturing process. In
addition, because the Company is a generator of hazardous wastes, the Company,
along with any other person who arranges for the disposal of such wastes, may be
subject to potential financial exposure for costs associated with an
investigation and remediation of sites at which it has arranged for the disposal
of hazardous wastes, if such sites become contaminated. This is true even if the
Company fully complies with applicable environmental laws. Although the Company
believes that its facilities are currently in material compliance with
applicable environmental laws, and it monitors its operations to avoid
violations arising from human error or equipment failures, there can be no
assurances that violations will not occur. In the event of a violation of
environmental laws, the Company could be held liable for damages and for the
costs of remedial actions and could also be subject to revocation of its
effluent discharge permits. Any such revocations could require the Company to
cease or limit production at one or more of its facilities, thereby having a
material adverse effect on the Company's operations. Environmental laws could
also become more stringent over time, imposing greater compliance costs and
increasing risks and penalties associated with any violation, which could
13
have a material adverse effect on the Company, its results of operations,
prospects or debt service ability.
COMPETITION
The PCB industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition.
The Company principally competes with independent and captive manufacturers of
complex and quick-turn PCBs. The Company's principal competitors include other
independent small private companies and integrated subsidiaries of more broadly
based volume producers, that also manufacture multilayer PCBs and other
electronic assemblies. Some of the Company's principal competitors are less
highly-leveraged than the Company and may have greater financial and operating
flexibility. Moreover, the Company may face additional competitive pressures as
a result of changes in technology.
Competition in the complex and quick-turn PCB industry has increased due to the
consolidation trend in the industry, which results in potentially better
capitalized and more effective competitors. The Company's basic technology is
generally not subject to significant proprietary protection, and companies with
significant resources or international operations may enter the market.
Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins or loss
of market share, any of which could materially adversely affect the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY MANAGEMENT
The Company's success will continue to depend to a significant extent on its
executive and other key management personnel. Although the Company has entered
into employment agreements with certain of its executive officers, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to retain its executive officers and
key personnel or attract additional qualified management in the future.
CONTROLLING STOCKHOLDERS
The Bain Capital Funds hold approximately 50.3% of the outstanding voting stock
of Holdings, the sole stockholder of Details Capital. In addition, the Bain
Capital Funds and all of Holdings' other stockholders have entered into a
stockholders agreement regarding, among other things, the voting of such stock.
By virtue of such stock ownership and these agreements, the Bain Capital Funds
have the power to control all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company,
to elect a majority of the directors of Holdings and its subsidiaries, and to
exercise control over the business, policies and affairs of the Company.
