BMC INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (in thousands, except per share amounts) 1. Financial Statements In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 1999, and the results of operations and the cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain items in the financial statements for the period ended March 31, 1998 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the period ended March 31, 1999. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The balance sheet as of December 31, 1998 is derived from the audited balance sheet as of that date. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. 2. Inventories MARCH 31, 1999 DECEMBER 31, 1998 -------------- ----------------- Raw materials $ 23,054 $ 24,845 Work in process 12,008 9,047 Finished goods 48,622 48,961 ------------ ------------ $ 83,684 $ 82,853 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ 3. Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company to reduce foreign exchange and interest rate risks. Interest Swap Agreements - In March 1997, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement that allowed the Company to swap a variable interest rate for a fixed interest rate of 6.365% on $15,000 of notional debt for a period of two years ended in March 1999. In August 1998, the Company entered into additional multiple interest rate swap agreements for a total of $100 million of notional debt which provide for the Company to swap a variable interest rate for fixed interest rates ranging from 5.74% to 5.76% plus a specified spread depending on the swap involved (7.12% to 7.14% including current spread of 1.375%). These swaps expire at various dates ranging from July 1999 to August 2000. The notional amount of debt is not a measure of the Company's exposure to credit or market risks and is not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Fixing the interest rate minimizes the Company's exposure to the uncertainty of floating interest rates during this two-year period. Amounts to be paid or received under the interest rate swap agreement are accrued and recorded as an adjustment to Interest Expense during the term of the interest rate swap agreements. Cross-Currency Swap Agreement - In January 1999, the Company entered into a cross-currency swap which provided for the Company to swap $10,000 of notional debt for the equivalent amount of Japanese yen-denominated debt. This swap also effectively swapped a U.S. dollar-based interest rate of 5.1% for a Japanese yen-based interest rate of 1.05%. This Japanese yen-based debt derivative is accounted for under mark-to-market accounting and expires in January 2002. The Company recorded as other income a gain of $341 in the quarter ended March 31, 1999 related to this swap. 4. Comprehensive Income The components of comprehensive income, net of related tax, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 are as follows: 1999 1998 ---- ---- Net earnings $ 3,191 $ 3,809 Foreign currency translation adjustments (2,430) (477) --------- --------- Comprehensive income $ 761 $ 3,332 --------- --------- --------- --------- Foreign currency translation adjustment for 1999 is primarily due to the change in cumulative translation adjustment resulting from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the DM/Euro during the quarter ended March 31, 1999. 5. Business Acquisition On May 15, 1998, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, acquired the Orcolite business unit of the Monsanto Company (Orcolite) for the cash purchase price of $101,000. For financial statement purposes, the acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting with the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible assets acquired recorded as intangible assets which are being amortized over periods ranging from seven to 30 years. In addition, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the independently appraised value of acquired in-process research and development purchased in conjunction with the acquisition was written-off as a charge of $9,500 (pre-tax) during the second quarter of 1998. The appraised value represents the estimated fair value of in-process R&D based on risk-adjusted cash flows related to the in-process R&D projects. At the date of the acquisition, the development of these projects had not reached technological feasibility, and these projects had no alternative future uses. There is no assurance that the in-process projects, which remain in progress, will be completed, or that they will meet either technological or commercial success. The consolidated statements of operations reflect the operations of Orcolite after May 15, 1998. The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of consolidated results of operations of the Company and the Orcolite business unit as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1998, with pro forma adjustments to give effect to amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets, depreciation expense on the fair value of property, plant and equipment and interest expense on acquisition debt, together with the related income tax effects. The pro forma adjustments do not include the $9,500 write-off of acquired in-process research and development discussed above. Three Month Period Ended March 31, 1998 --------------------------------------- Revenues $ 89,092 Net earnings 2,731 Diluted earnings per share 0.10 The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information above is not necessarily indicative of what actual results would have been had the acquisition occurred at the date indicated. Also, the anticipated financial impact resulting from business synergies has not been reflected in the above pro forma financial information. Such synergies include the following: consolidation of selling, marketing, distribution, customer service and administrative functions; consolidation of research and development and technical services functions; optimization of combined production capacity; and improved purchasing leverage. 6. Segment Information The Company has two operating segments which manufacture and sell a variety of products: Precision Imaged Products (PIP) and Optical Products. PIP manufactures principally aperture masks which are photochemically etched fine mesh grids used in the manufacture of color television tubes and computer monitors. Optical Products manufactures ophthalmic lenses. The following is a summary of certain financial information relating to the two segments: Three Months Ended March 31 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Precision Image Products Optical Products Consolidated -------------------------- -------------------------- --------------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 1999 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Revenues $ 49,999 $ 55,272 $ 34,646 $ 24,812 $ 84,645 $ 80,084 Cost of Products Sold 45,089 50,065 25,989 18,390 71,078 68,455 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gross Margin 4,910 5,207 8,657 6,422 13,567 11,629 Gross Margin % 9.8% 9.4% 25.0% 25.9% 16.0% 14.5% Selling 1,357 1,133 3,008 2,156 4,365 3,289 Unallocated Corporate Administration - - - - 1,233 1,330 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income from Oper. $ 3,553 $ 4,074 $ 5,649 $ 4,266 $ 7,969 $ 7,010 ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- Operating Income % 7.1% 7.4% 16.3% 17.2% 9.4% 8.8% Interest and Other Income (Expense), net (3,068) (1,495) ------------ ----------- Earnings Before Income Taxes $ 4,901 $ 5,515 ------------ ----------- ------------ ----------- 7. New Accounting Standards In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivatives and Similar Financial Instruments and for Hedging Activities." The new Statement will significantly change how companies account for derivatives and hedging activities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this Statement which is required for the Company no later than first quarter 2000. 8. Legal Matters During the quarter ended March 31, 1999, no significant new legal proceedings or environmental matters arose and there were no material changes in the status of the legal proceedings or environmental matters described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. BMC INDUSTRIES, INC. ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998 Total revenues for the first quarter of 1999 increased by $4.6 million, or 6%, from the first quarter of 1998. Revenues of the Optical Products group generated sales of $34.6 million in the first quarter of 1999, up 40%, or $9.8 million, over the prior year quarter due mainly to growth in sales of high-end products (polycarbonate, progressive and polarizing sun lenses) resulting from the acquisition of Orcolite in May 1998. Sales of high-end products increased 98% in first quarter 1999 over first quarter 1998 and accounted for 54% of total Optical Products group revenue in first quarter 1999 compared to 38% in first quarter 1998. First quarter 1999 Optical Products group revenues were up 2.4% compared to the pro forma combined Vision-Ease/Orcolite 1998 revenues for the same period. The growth in pro forma revenue was dampened by year-on-year declines in glass and plastic lens sales as growth in the ophthalmic lens market continues to shift towards polycarbonate. In the first quarter of 1999, Optical Products group sales of high-end products (including polycarbonate) increased 9% over the pro forma combined Vision-Ease/Orcolite 1998 revenues for the same period. Revenues of the Precision Imaged Products (PIP) group for the first quarter decreased 10% from the prior year quarter due primarily to a previously anticipated temporary slowdown of BMSP and a decline in sales of AK steel entertainment masks attributable to both volume and price reductions. Increased sales of invar entertainment masks and monitor masks largely offset the decline in sales of AK steel entertainment masks. Sales of invar entertainment masks in first quarter 1999 increased 20% over first quarter 1998 and sales of monitor masks increased 29% over the comparable quarter last year. The monitor mask line in Cortland, which had been shut down all of the second half of 1998, was restarted near the end of January 1999 in response to increased demand for monitor masks from a broadened customer base. However, only a limited amount of monitor masks sold in first quarter 1999 were produced at the Company's Cortland facility. The Company currently expects significant incremental sales of monitor masks as the restarted Cortland monitor mask line reaches full production. Cost of products sold were 84% of net sales for the first quarter of 1999, compared to 85.5% in the same period of 1998. The decreased cost of products sold percentage was due primarily to the increased mix of higher-margin optical product sales versus lower-margin PIP sales. The PIP gross margin percentage is up slightly from 1998. The 1999 PIP gross margin percentage reflects the heavier mix of high-margin invar entertainment sales and the impact of cost reduction initiatives, offset by overall lower pricing within the Mask business, particularly within the monitor segment; lower profitability at BMSP; and costs associated with the restart of the Cortland, New York monitor mask line during first quarter 1999, which had a significant negative impact on first quarter 1999 results. The 1998 PIP gross margin percentage reflects the significant costs associated with the original start-up of the Cortland monitor mask line in late 1997/early 1998. The Optical Products gross margin percentage decreased slightly from first quarter 1998 reflecting increased amortization expense related to the Orcolite acquisition, partially offset by an increase in mix of high-end product sales. Selling expenses were $4.4 million, or 5.2%, of revenues and $3.3 million, or 4.1%, of revenues for the first quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase is primarily due to higher selling costs associated with the Optical Products group, principally for expanded sales and marketing efforts associated with high-end products and incremental costs associated with the Orcolite acquisition. Interest expense in the first quarter of 1999 increased $2.1 million over the prior year quarter. This increase is primarily due to the increased debt level to fund the cash purchase of Orcolite for $101 million in May of 1998. The provision for income taxes was 35% and 31% of pre-tax income in the first quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. This increase was primarily due to a decrease in the tax benefit associated with dividends projected to be paid by the Company's German operation to the Parent Company which reduce the Company's effective tax rate. MARKET RISK There were no significant changes in market risks from those disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. FINANCIAL POSITION AND LIQUIDITY Debt decreased approximately $7 million during the first three months of 1999 primarily due to cash flow from operations and limited investing activity. Working capital was $93.5 million at March 31, 1999 compared to $95 million at December 31, 1998. The current ratio was 2.4 at March 31, 1999 compared to 2.7 at December 31, 1998. The ratio of debt to capitalization was 0.58 at March 31, 1999 compared to 0.59 at December 31, 1998. There were no significant changes in the Company's credit facilities during the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The Company was in compliance with all covenants related to credit facilities at March 31, 1999. The Company continues to expect that the combination of present capital resources, internally-generated funds and unused financing sources will be adequate to meet the Company's financing requirements for 1999. ENVIRONMENTAL There were no material changes in the status of the legal proceedings and environmental matters described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE The Company has computer applications at the corporate level and at each of its operating divisions that require or have required modifications made necessary by the upcoming year 2000. If appropriate modifications are not made, or are not completed in a timely manner, the Y2K issue could have a material adverse impact on the operations of the Company. The Company has been addressing the Y2K issue using essentially the following four-phase approach: - Phase I - Identification of all significant computer systems within the Company with exposure to Y2K issues; - Phase II - For each system, assessment of Y2K issue(s) and required remediation; - Phase III - Remediation and testing of systems to be Y2K compliant; - Phase IV - Assessment of Y2K preparedness of significant third parties. Phase I was formally completed and summarized on a Company-wide basis in early 1998. Phase II is essentially completed for all information technology (IT) systems and is in process and estimated to be completed in the third quarter of 1999 for all non-IT systems. Non-IT systems are generally embedded technology, such as micro-controllers. Phase III is in various stages of completion depending on the systems involved. For IT systems, the most significant efforts of this phase currently involve the accelerated replacement of non-compliant IT systems within the Mask Operations group and the remediation and testing of important mainframe applications and operating systems within the Optical Products group. Y2K-compliant integrated IT systems from SAP are currently being implemented in the Mask Operations group in various phases beginning in early 1999 and continuing through the third quarter of 1999. Y2K remediation and testing within the Optical Products group is currently estimated to be completed by the third quarter of 1999. For non-IT systems, Phase III is currently scheduled to be completed in conjunction with Phase II by the end of third quarter 1999. For Phase IV, the Company is in the process of identifying and assessing the Y2K preparedness of significant third parties, including key vendors and service providers, and estimates that this phase will be ongoing during the remainder of 1999. The Company currently estimates that it will cost $3-4 million using both internal and external resources to address the Y2K issue as discussed above, including the cost of replacing the IT systems within the Mask Operations group. Through March 31, 1999, the Company had spent approximately $1.5 million of this total estimate. The Company's current most reasonably likely worst case Y2K scenario is the potential inability to obtain raw materials from suppliers in a timely manner or that modification work will not proceed on schedule, causing some increase to the total cost of achieving Y2K compliance. The impact on the Company's results of operations if the Company or its suppliers or customers are not fully Y2K compliant is not reasonably determinable. Since the Company is depending on its ability to execute modification plans and its vendors to continue material supply without interruption, there can be no assurance that unforeseen difficulties will not arise for the Company or its customers and that related costs will not thereby be incurred. Management believes it has planned appropriately to resolve the Y2K issue with respect to all material elements under the Company's direct control. A number of significant risks do exist, however, including the potential inability of the Company to obtain (or retain) the proper internal and external resources to fully address all Y2K exposures in the timeframes required and at the cost estimated, as well as the risk that key suppliers, customers or other significant third parties, including those in utilities, communications, transportation, banking and government are not prepared for the year 2000. The Company has not yet established a contingency plan relative to the Y2K issue but currently anticipates establishing such a plan later in 1999.
