ADVANCED ENERGY INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT OPINION
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
balance sheets and statements of operations and cash flows contain all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary to present
fairly the financial position of Advanced Energy Industries, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company") at June 30, 1999,
the results of the Company's operations for the three- and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the results of the Company's cash
flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
The unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the
information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.
(2) ACQUISITIONS
RF POWER PRODUCTS-- On October 8, 1998, RF Power Products, Inc. ("RFPP"), a
New Jersey-based designer and manufacturer of radio frequency power systems,
matching networks and peripheral products primarily for original equipment
manufacturers in the semiconductor capital equipment, commercial coating, flat
panel display and analytical instrumentation markets, was merged with and into a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company issued approximately 4
million shares of its common stock to the former shareholders of RFPP. Each
share of RFPP common stock was exchanged for 0.32857 of one share of the
Company's common stock. In addition, outstanding RFPP stock options were
converted at the same exchange factor into options to purchase in the aggregate
approximately 148,000 shares of the Company's common stock on the same terms and
conditions as the prior RFPP options at exercise prices adjusted based upon the
exchange factor.
The merger constituted a tax-free reorganization and has been accounted for
as a pooling of interests under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16.
Accordingly, all prior period consolidated financial statements presented have
been restated to include the combined balance sheet, statements of operations
and cash flows of RFPP as though it had always been part of the Company. RFPP's
year-end was November 30, and therefore, the combined statement of operations
for the first six months of 1998 includes RFPP's results for the three and
six-month periods ended May 31, 1998, and the combined statement of cash flows
for the first six months of 1998 includes RFPP's cash flows for the six-month
period ending May 31, 1998.
In connection with the merger, the Company recorded in the fourth quarter of
1998 a charge to operating expenses of $2,742,000 for direct merger-related
costs. There were no transactions between the Company and RFPP prior to the
combination, and immaterial adjustments were recorded to conform RFPP's
accounting policies to those of the Company. Certain reclassifications were made
to conform the RFPP prior period financial statements to the Company's
presentations. On April 5, 1999, the name of RF Power Products, Inc. was changed
to Advanced Energy Voorhees, Inc.
FST-- Effective September 3, 1998, the Company acquired substantially all of
the assets of Fourth State Technology, Inc. ("FST"), a privately held,
Texas-based designer and manufacturer of process controls
6
used to monitor and analyze data in the RF process. The purchase price consisted
of $2.5 million in cash, assumption of a $113,000 liability, and an earn-out
provision which is based on profits over the three-year period after the
effective date of the acquisition. Approximately $2.6 million of the purchase
price was allocated to intangible assets. The results of operations of FST are
included within the accompanying consolidated financial statements from the date
of acquisition.
TOWER-- Effective August 15, 1997, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding stock of Tower Electronics, Inc. ("Tower"), a Minnesota-based
designer and manufacturer of custom, high-performance switchmode power
supplies used principally in the telecommunications, medical and non-impact
printing industries. The purchase price consisted of $14.5 million in cash
and a $1.5 million non-interest-bearing promissory note issued to the seller
(the "Note"), which was paid in full during August 1998. Total consideration,
including applicable imputed interest on the Note, equaled $15,889,000. The
acquisition resulted in a one-time charge of $3,080,000 for the write off of
in-process research and development costs acquired as a result of the
transaction. Acquisition costs totaled approximately $209,000.

(6) ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) -- In June 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income,"
which establishes rules for the reporting of comprehensive income (loss) and its
components. Comprehensive income (loss) for the Company consists of net income
(loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments as presented below. The
adoption of SFAS No. 130 in fiscal 1998 had no impact on total stockholders'
equity. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the
SFAS No. 130 requirements.

Adjustment to arrive at comprehensive net income:
Cumulative translation adjustment.............................. (860) (77)
------ -------
Comprehensive net income (loss).................................. $2,444 $(2,328)
------ -------
------ -------
EARNINGS PER SHARE -- In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share," which requires companies to present basic earnings (loss)
per share ("EPS") and diluted EPS, instead of primary and fully-diluted EPS
previously required. This standard was effective for the Company in fiscal 1997.
Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the sum
of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period
plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if
dilutive potential common shares had been issued.
SEGMENT REPORTING -- In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which requires a
public business enterprise to report financial and descriptive information about
its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an
enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing performance. SFAS No. 131 was effective for
the Company beginning fiscal 1998. Management operates and manages its business
of supplying power conversion and control systems as one operating segment, as
their products have similar economic characteristics and production processes.
DERIVATIVE HEDGING ACTIVITIES -- In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
for hedging activity. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137 in June 1999, is
effective for all periods in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS
No. 133 requires all derivatives to be recorded on the balance sheet as either
an asset or liability and measured at their fair value. Changes in the
derivative's fair value will be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedging accounting criteria are met. SFAS No. 133 also establishes uniform hedge
accounting criteria for all derivatives. The Company has not yet evaluated the
impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have on the financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SPECIAL NOTE ON FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The following discussion may contain, in addition to historical
information, forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For example, statements relating to the
Company's beliefs, expectations and plans are forward-looking statements, as
are statements that certain actions, conditions or circumstances will
continue or occur. Forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties. As a result, the Company's actual results may differ
materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences or prove any
forward-looking statements, by hindsight, to be overly optimistic or
unachievable, include, but are not limited to the following: the significant
fluctuations in the Company's quarterly operating results, the volatility of
the semiconductor and semiconductor capital equipment industries, timing and
success of integration of recent and potential future acquisitions, supply
constraints and technological changes. For a discussion of these and other
factors that may impact the Company's realization of its forward-looking
statements, see the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1998, Part I "Cautionary Statements - Risk Factors" and the
other documents and information filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998
SALES
The Company sells power conversion and control systems primarily to the
semiconductor capital equipment, data storage and industrial markets in the
United States, to the flat panel display and data storage markets in Japan, and
to the data storage and industrial markets in Europe. The Company also sells
spare parts and repair services worldwide through its global support
organization.
Sales for the second quarter of 1999 were $41.5 million, an increase of 30%
from second quarter of 1998 sales of $32.0 million. The increase in sales
between such periods resulted from increased unit sales of the Company's
systems. The increase was attributable primarily to semiconductor capital
equipment customers in the United States, including the Company's largest
customer in that industry, and to a lesser extent to increased sales to flat
panel display manufacturers in Japan and entertainment data storage
manufacturers in Europe. Although sales in the second quarter of 1999 were
significantly higher than sales in the four preceding quarters, they were still
significantly lower than sales in the third and fourth quarters of 1997. The
Company believes that sales
9
in the second quarter of 1999 reflect a partial recovery in the semiconductor
capital equipment market.
From the second quarter of 1998 to the second quarter of 1999, sales to the
data storage equipment industry increased slightly. Within that industry, sales
to the entertainment segment increased significantly, offsetting the decrease in
sales to the computer segment. Sales to the flat panel display industry,
predominantly in Japan, were significantly higher than the comparable period
last year. Sales to industrial markets were down primarily due to decreased
sales to a major customer of Tower Electronics, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary,
which customer elected to have power supplies manufactured at a foreign
location at which the Company did not have a manufacturing facility.
Sales for the second quarter of 1999 were up 27% from first quarter of 1999
sales of $32.7 million. This increase was due to higher sales to semiconductor
capital equipment manufacturers in the United States, and increased sales to
flat panel display customers in Japan.
The following tables summarize net sales and percentages of net sales by
customer type for the Company for the three-month periods ended June 30, 1999
and 1998:

GROSS MARGIN
The Company's gross margin for the second quarter of 1999 was 44.1%, up from
26.6% in the second quarter 1998. The improvement in gross margin from the
second quarter of 1998 to the second quarter of 1999 was due to improved
material costs and more favorable absorption of manufacturing overhead from the
higher sales base. The Company's gross margin for the second quarter of 1999 was
up from 40.0% in the first quarter of 1999 due to more favorable absorption from
the higher sales base.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The Company's research and development expenses are incurred researching new
technologies, developing new products and improving existing product designs.
Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 1999 were $6.8
million, up from $6.4 million in the comparable period in 1998, representing an
increase of 6%. The increase was attributable to higher spending for materials
and supplies. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses
decreased to 16.3% in the second quarter of 1999 from 19.9% in the second
quarter of 1998, reflecting the higher sales base in 1999.
The Company believes continued research and development investment for
development of new products is critical to the Company's ability to serve new
and existing markets. Since the Company's inception, research and development
costs generally have been internally funded and all have been expensed as
incurred.
11
SALES AND MARKETING
Sales and marketing expenses support domestic and international sales and
marketing activities which include personnel, trade shows, advertising and
other marketing activities. Sales and marketing expenses for the second quarter
of 1999 were $4.0 million, up from $3.5 million in the second quarter of 1998,
representing an increase of 13%. The increase was attributable to higher
spending for payroll, materials and supplies. As a percentage of sales, sales
and marketing expenses decreased to 9.6% in the second quarter of 1999 from
11.0% in the second quarter of 1998, reflecting the higher sales base in 1999.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
General and administrative expenses support the worldwide financial,
administrative, information systems and human resources functions of the
Company. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 1999 were
$3.1 million, up from $2.8 million in the second quarter of 1998, representing
an increase of 12%. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative
expenses decreased to 7.4% in the second quarter of 1999 from 8.7% in the second
quarter of 1998, reflecting the higher sales base in 1999.
OTHER INCOME
Other income consists primarily of interest income and expense, foreign
exchange gains and losses, and other non-operating expenses. Other income for
the second quarter of 1999 was $56,000, attributable primarily to $188,000 of
net interest income. In the comparable period in 1998, other income was
$129,000.
The Company has experienced fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates, particularly against the Japanese yen. Beginning in 1997, the Company
entered into various forward foreign exchange contracts as a hedge against
currency fluctuations in the yen. The Company will continue to evaluate
various methods to minimize the effects of currency fluctuations.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The Company had an income tax provision of $1.8 million for the second
quarter of 1999, compared to an income tax benefit of $885,000 for the second
quarter of 1998. The estimated effective tax rate for the second quarter of 1999
was 38.8%, compared to an effective income tax benefit rate of 22.0% for the
second quarter of 1998. The higher
12
effective consolidated tax rate for the second quarter of 1999 was attributed
to losses recorded at the Company's Advanced Energy Voorhees, Inc. subsidiary
in the second quarter of 1998 for which no tax benefit had been recorded and a
shift in the mix of the Company's taxable income toward a greater share from
countries with higher effective tax rates. The Company adjusts its provision for
income taxes periodically, based upon the anticipated tax status of all of its
foreign and domestic entities.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998
SALES
Sales for the first six months of 1999 were $74.2 million, a decrease of 2%
from sales of $75.8 million in the first six months of 1998. The decrease was
attributable mostly to decreases in sales to industrial markets, which was
partially offset by increases in sales to customers in the semiconductor capital
equipment industry.
The following tables summarize net sales and percentages of net sales by
customer type for the Company for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 and
1998:

GROSS MARGIN
The Company's gross margin for the first six months of 1999 was 42.3%, up
from 29.2% in the comparable period in 1998. The improvement in gross margin
was primarily a result of the Company's efforts to reduce material and
manufacturing overhead costs, including implementation of the Company's
restructuring plan in the third quarter of 1998.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development expenses for the first six months of 1999 were
$12.6 million, up from $12.2 million in the comparable period in 1998,
representing an increase of 3%. The increase was attributable to higher
spending for materials and supplies. As a percentage of sales, research and
development expenses increased to 17.0% in the first six months of 1999 from
16.1% in the comparable period of 1998.
SALES AND MARKETING
Sales and marketing expenses for the first six months of 1999 were $7.3
million, up slightly from $7.1 million in the comparable period in 1998,
representing an increase of 3%. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing
expenses increased to 9.8% in the first six months of 1999 from 9.3% in the
comparable period of 1998.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
General and administrative expenses for the first six months of 1999 were
$6.0 million, up from $5.6 million in the comparable period in 1998,
representing an increase of 7%. As a percentage of sales, general and
administrative expenses increased to 8.0% in the first six months of 1999 from
7.4% in the comparable period of 1998.
OTHER INCOME
Other income for the first six months of 1999 was $17,000, compared to
$227,000 in the comparable period in 1998, representing a decrease of 93%.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision was $2.3 million for the first six months of 1999,
compared to an income tax benefit of $333,000 for the first six months of 1998.
The estimated effective tax rate was 40.5% for the first six months of 1999,
compared to an effective income tax benefit rate of 12.9% for the first six
months of 1998. The higher effective consolidated tax rate for the first six
months of 1999 was attributed to losses recorded at the Company's Advanced
Energy Voorhees, Inc. subsidiary in the second quarter of 1998 for which no
tax benefit had been recorded and a shift in the mix of the Company's taxable
income toward a greater share from countries with higher effective tax rates.
14
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since its inception, the Company has financed its operations, acquired
equipment and met its working capital requirements through borrowings under its
revolving line of credit, long-term loans secured by property and equipment,
cash flow from operations and proceeds from equity offerings.
Operating activities used cash of $2.1 million in the first six months of
1999, primarily as a result of increases in accounts receivable and inventories,
partially offset by net income, increases in accounts payable and increased
accruals for payroll, employee benefits and income taxes. In the comparable
period in 1998, operating activities provided cash of $4.7 million, primarily as
a result of decreases in accounts receivable and inventories, offset by the net
loss, decreases in accounts payable and decreased accruals for income taxes. The
Company expects future receivable and inventory balances to fluctuate with net
sales. The Company provides just-in-time deliveries to certain of its customers
and may be required, under certain contracts or agreements, to maintain minimum
levels of inventory to satisfy its customers' delivery requirements. Any
increase of such inventory levels will require the use of cash to finance the
inventory.
Investing activities used cash of $1.1 million in the first six months of
1999, and included the purchase of property and equipment for $3.0 million,
offset by the sales of $1.9 million of marketable securities. Investing
activities used cash of $3.2 million in the first six months of 1998, and
included the purchase of property and equipment for $4.0 million and the
purchase of a stock investment in a start up company for $0.75 million,
offset by sales of $1.5 million of marketable securities.
Financing activities in the first six months of 1999 provided cash of
$3.0 million and consisted primarily of proceeds from the exercise of
employee stock options of $1.8 million and net increases in notes payable and
capital lease obligations of $1.2 million. Financing activities in the
comparable period in 1998 used cash of $1.6 million and consisted primarily
of payment of notes payable and capital lease obligations of $1.9 million,
partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options of
$0.3 million.
The Company plans to spend approximately $7.0 million through the
remainder of 1999 and first six months of 2000 for the acquisition of
manufacturing and test equipment and furnishings. Further, the Company
continues to implement its management systems software, including the
replacement of existing systems in its domestic and foreign locations. The
Company expects to spend an aggregate of approximately $0.3 million through
the year 2000 on this implementation.
As of June 30, 1999, the Company had working capital of $67.0 million.
The Company's sources of available funds as of June 30, 1999 consisted of
$11.3 million of cash and cash equivalents, $14.2 million of marketable
securities, and a credit facility consisting of a $30.0 million revolving
line of credit, of which none was outstanding as of June 30, 1999. Advances
under the revolving line of credit bear interest at either the prime rate
(8.00% at July 15, 1999) minus 1.25% or the LIBOR 360-day rate (5.76625% at
July 15, 1999) plus
15
150 basis points, at the Company's option. All advances under the revolving line
of credit will be due and payable on December 7, 2000, unless up to $10
million of indebtedness is converted into a 3-year term loan prior to that
date.
The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, marketable
securities, cash flow from operations and available borrowings, will be
sufficient to meet the Company's working capital needs for the next twelve
months. From time to time, the Company may raise capital through additional
equity or debt financing in order to take advantage of favorable market
conditions or to fund material capital equipment purchases or desired
expansion. The Company has considered, and will continue to consider,
possible acquisitions of businesses or entities which the Company believes
could create synergies or opportunities for the Company. The Company has an
agreement to acquire a controlling interest in a start-up company in which it
currently owns a minority interest. No agreement or understanding with
respect to any other future acquisition has been reached. If the Company were
to undertake one or more acquisitions, the Company may require additional
funds which may be provided by the sale of equity or debt securities. There
can be no assurance that additional funding will be available when required
or that it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
YEAR 2000 PROGRAM
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs that rely on
two-digit date codes, instead of four-digit date codes, to indicate the year.
These computer programs, which are unable to interpret the date code "00" as the
year 2000, may not be able to perform computations and decision-making functions
after December 31, 1999 and could cause computer systems to malfunction.
The Company has developed a multi-phase program for Year 2000 information
systems compliance that consists of the following:
- ASSESSMENT of the Company's corporate systems and operations that
could be affected by the Year 2000 problem;
- REMEDIATION of non-compliant systems and components; and
- TESTING of systems and components following remediation.
The Company has focused its Year 2000 review on three areas:
- information technology (IT) system applications;
- non-IT systems, including engineering and manufacturing
applications; and
- relationships with third parties.
The Company completed assessment of its IT and non-IT systems at all of its
facilities. The Company believes that its enterprise-wide software system, which
is installed at the Fort Collins facility and certain other facilities, is Year
2000 compliant. This belief is
16
based significantly on discussions with and representations by the vendor of
such software. The Company has been, and will continue to be, in contact with
the vendor to obtain any additional revisions or upgrades issued by the vendor
to ensure that such enterprise-wide software remains Year 2000 compliant. The
Company also has conducted our own tests on the enterprise-wide software to
verify the vendor's representations.
Following completion of the assessment phase, the Year 2000 team identified
those non-compliant systems that it considers to be "mission critical."
Remediation and testing of the mission critical IT systems, except at the
Fridley facility, have been completed. During the third quarter of 1999, the
Company expects to complete remediation and testing of:
- mission critical IT systems at the Fridley facility;
- mission critical non-IT systems at all of its facilities; and
- non-compliant systems that are not mission critical.
The Company is examining its relationships with third parties whose Year
2000 compliance could have a material effect on our operations. The Company
considers third party suppliers and customers to pose its greatest Year 2000
risk because the failure of these persons to become Year 2000 compliant in a
timely manner, if at all, could result in the Company's inability to obtain
components in a timely manner, reductions in the quality of components obtained,
reductions, delays or cancellations of customer orders or delays in payments by
customers for products shipped. In addition, conversions by third parties to
become Year 2000 compliant might not be compatible with the Company's systems.
Any or all of these events could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company has circulated questionnaires to and have actively solicited
feedback from its significant suppliers and customers with respect to their Year
2000 compliance programs and status. The Company continues to contact Advanced
Energy Voorhees' significant suppliers and expects such contact to be made and
feedback to be received by the end of the third quarter of 1999. Based on the
results of these efforts, the Company believes that its principal customers and
all of its sole source suppliers are either Year 2000 compliant or are
implementing plans to become Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. Some of its
suppliers have advised the Company that they are implementing Year 2000 programs
but have not indicated by when they expect to be Year 2000 compliant or have
indicated that they don't expect to be Year 2000 compliant until the fourth
quarter of 1999. The Company continues to pursue additional information about
these suppliers' Year 2000 readiness in order to assess the risks involved in
relying on them.
In what the Company believes to be its most reasonably likely worst case
Year 2000 scenario, the Company would be unable to obtain electronic components
from its
17
suppliers because of their failure to become Year 2000 compliant. The Company
may be unable to manufacture components internally or redesign its systems to
accommodate different components. The Company continues to review its options
for contingency plans to limit the potential impact of any Year 2000 failures.
In particular, the Company is reviewing the capabilities of its current and
potential component suppliers to ensure that the components most critical to
production of the Company's systems are not sole-sourced. See the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998, Part I
"Cautionary Statements - Risk Factors--Supply Constraints and Dependence on
Sole and Limited Source Suppliers."
Although the Company is continuing to assess Year 2000 costs, to date the
Company has not incurred material costs related to its Year 2000 program, and
the Company does not expect the costs associated with its Year 2000 projects to
have a material effect on its financial results. The Company expects to spend
less than five percent of its total annual IT budget on Year 2000 costs. The
Company has not identified any IT projects that have been deferred due to its
Year 2000 efforts. The Company's current estimates of the impact of the Year
2000 problem on its operations and financial results do not include costs or
time that may be incurred as a result of any suppliers' or customers' failures
to become Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis. In addition, we cannot
predict whether any litigation will be brought against the Company as a
result of any supplier's or customer's failure to become Year 2000 compliant
on a timely basis or claiming that the Company's products are not Year 2000
compliant or otherwise.
The Company believes that its products are Year 2000 ready, except that
certain products acquired from Fourth State Technology have not been fully
assessed. We intend to complete assessment of the Fourth State Technology
products during the third quarter of 1999.
The foregoing beliefs and expectations are forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange
Act, as described under the caption "Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements"
above. Our forward-looking statements regarding our Year 2000 program and
expectations are based in large part on certain statements and representations
made by persons outside the Company, any of which statements or representations
ultimately could prove to be inaccurate.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT
MARKET RISK
INTEREST RATE RISK
The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates
primarily to the Company's investment portfolio and long-term debt obligations.
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments in
connection with its investment portfolio. The Company generally places its
investments with high credit quality issuers, by policy is averse to principal
loss and seeks to protect and preserve its invested funds
18
by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. As of June 30,
1999, the Company's investments consisted of equities, municipal bonds and
notes, and mutual funds. We have invested in a start-up company and may in
the future make additional investments in start-up companies that develop
products which the Company believes may provide future benefits. The current
start-up investment and any future start-up investments will be subject to
all of the risks inherent in investing in companies that are not established.
The Company's interest expense is sensitive to changes in the general level
of U.S. interest rates with respect to its bank facility of which no balance was
outstanding as of June 30, 1999. The Company's other debt is fixed rate in
nature and mitigates the impact of fluctuations in interest rates. The fair
value of the Company's debt approximates the carrying amount at June 30, 1999.
Management believes the potential effects of near-term changes in interest rates
on the Company's debt is not material.
FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK
The Company transacts business in various foreign countries. Its primary
foreign currency cash flows are generated in countries in Asia and Europe. As a
hedge against currency fluctuations in the yen, the Company entered into
various forward foreign exchange contracts from 1997 to the present to mitigate
the effect of potential depreciation of that currency.
Several European countries have adopted, and others are expected to adopt, a
Single European Currency (the "euro") as of January 1, 1999 with a transition
period continuing through January 1, 2002. As of January 1, 1999, eleven of the
fifteen member countries of the European Union (the "participating countries")
established fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies
and the euro. For three years after the introduction of the euro, the
participating countries can perform financial transactions in either the euro or
their original local currencies. This will result in a fixed exchange rate among
the participating countries, whereas the euro (and the participating countries'
currencies in tandem) will continue to float freely against the U.S. dollar and
other currencies of non-participating countries. While the Company does not
expect the introduction of the euro currency to have a significant impact on the
Company's revenues or results of operations, the Company is unable to determine
what effects, if any, the currency change in Europe will have on competition and
competitive pricing in the affected regions.
