MUZAK CAPITAL CORPORATION
NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Muzak Capital Corporation ("Capital Corp."), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Muzak Limited Partnership (the "Company"), was formed on May 8, 1996. Capital
Corp. has no independent operations and is dependent upon results of
operations and cash flow of the Company to meet its sole obligation as
co-issuer with the Company of the 10% senior notes due 2003, the payment of
principal and interest thereon when due. No activity has occurred from May 8,
1996 (date of inception) through March 31, 1998; therefore, statements of
operations and cash flows have not been included herein.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the
registrant's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 31, 1998.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or future filings by the
Company, as defined below, and Capital Corp., as defined below, with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's and Capital Corp's press
releases or other public communications, or in oral statements made with the
approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "believes,"
"will likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated,"
"estimate," "project" or similar expressions are intended to identify
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company and Capital Corp. wish to caution
readers not to place undo reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which
speak only as of the date made, and to advise readers that various factors,
including rapid technological change, competitive pricing, concentrations in and
dependence on satellite delivery capabilities, and development of new services
could affect the Company's and Capital Corp.'s financial performance and could
cause the Company's and Capital Corp.'s actual results for future periods to
differ materially from those anticipated or projected.
The Company and Capital Corp. do not undertake and specifically disclaim any
obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect the
occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the
date of such statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues. Total first quarter revenues increased 7.4% from $21.8 million in
1997 to $23.4 million in 1998 resulting from a 7.2% increase in business
services revenues and a 7.7% increase in equipment and related services
revenues. Business services revenues increased due to an increase in the number
of broadcast music subscribers and an increase in other business service
revenues. Other business services revenues, with the exception of on-premise
tape sales, increased more rapidly than broadcast music revenues due to the
increased marketing of, and increasing customer demand for, video, audio
messaging, and AdParting services, among others. The quarter reflected
increased equipment and related services over the prior year quarter primarily
due to sound systems installed into certain large national accounts. The effect
of these large national sales of equipment and related services more than offset
the expected decrease in equipment sold to our franchise network members, who
are now predominately purchasing equipment for new installations directly from
equipment vendors.
Gross Profit. Total first quarter gross profit increased 7.6% from $12.6
million in 1997 to $13.6 million in 1998. As a percentage of total revenues,
gross profit increased from 57.9% in 1997 to 58.0% in 1998. The improvement in
the gross profit percentage in the quarter was due to improved equipment margins
related to a large national sale.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses in the first quarter decreased 2.0% from $7.9 million in
1997 to $7.8 million in 1998. As a percentage of total revenues, selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased from 36.4% in 1997 to 33.2% in
1998. Selling and marketing expenses remained relatively flat from 1997 levels
at $3.2 million. General and administrative costs decreased 3.3% from $4.8
million in 1997 to $4.6 million in 1998, primarily due to decreased consulting
expense.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased
6.8% from $5.3 million in the first quarter of 1997 to $5.0 million in the first
quarter of 1998. This decrease is principally the result of assets bought in
1992 being fully depreciated in the third quarter of 1997 that are partially
offset by increased depreciation and amortization resulting from investments
associated with the expansion of the Company's subscriber base as discussed
above.
Interest Expense and Other Income. Total interest expense for the first quarter
remained flat at $2.7 million for 1997 and 1998. Total interest bearing debt at
the end of the first quarter of 1998 was $100.9 million compared to $101.0
million at the end of the first quarter of 1997.
Net Loss. Net loss for the first quarter decreased from $3.2 million in 1997 to
$1.9 million in 1998. The decrease in net loss was the result of the growth in
sales and reduction in both direct and indirect costs.
Muzak Capital Corporation. Muzak Capital Corporation ("Capital Corp."), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was organized on May 8, 1996, has
nominal assets and conducts no business operations. Capital Corp. has no
independent operations and is dependent on the cash flow of the Company to meet
its sole obligation, the payment of interest and
principal on the Senior Notes when due. A discussion of Capital Corp. has been
omitted in the period-to-period comparison due to its lack of significant assets
and lack of operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents increased from $8.5 million as of December 31, 1997 to
$10.3 million as of March 31, 1998. The Company's operating cash flow during
this period was $6.9 million, including a net change in operating assets and
liabilities of $1.2 million. The operating cash flow was primarily used to fund
capital requirements associated with new subscriber additions and to reduce
current liabilities.
Credit Facility. Also in March 1998, the Company obtained a credit facility
for working capital purposes with an initial availability of $3.0 million,
increasing to $5.0 million upon the attainment of certain cash flow related
targets. The credit facility is secured by the inventories and receivables
of the Company. Amounts outstanding under the facility will bear a variable
rate of interest, to be paid quarterly, based on the lender's prime rate or
LIBOR. The terms of the credit facility require the Company to maintain
certain performance standards and covenants that, among other things, limit
the Company's capital spending and acquisitions of other businesses, as well
as the Company's ability to incur additional debt and make distributions to
partners.
Subsequent Events. Subsequent to March 31, 1998, the Company acquired three
additional business music distributors from its competitors for approximately
$4.5 million in cash combined with a total of 275,382 units of limited
partnerships interest. The Company also entered into an agreement with its
joint venture partner in Muzak Europe that effectively liquidated the Company's
interest in Muzak Europe in exchange for a promissory note and the right of
the Company to participate in the future revenues of the European venture in its
new role as franchisor.
The Company believes that its cash flows from operations, borrowing availability
and cash on hand will be adequate to support currently planned business
operations, capital expenditures and debt service requirements at least through
December 1999. If the Company engages in one or more material acquisitions,
joint ventures or alliances or other major business initiatives requiring
significant cash commitments, or incurs unanticipated expenses, additional
financing could be required.
The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No. 130, REPORTING
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME, which became effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. This statement requires comprehensive income and its
components to be reported in the financial statements in the period in which
