FLEXSTEEL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
|
|
|
|
1. |
The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Flexsteel Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Flexsteel”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information furnished in the consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Except to the extent updated or described below, the significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008, appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of accounting policies and are incorporated by reference. |
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS – Flexsteel was incorporated in 1929 and is one of the oldest and largest manufacturers, importers and marketers of residential, recreational vehicle and commercial upholstered and wooden furniture products in the country. Product offerings include a wide variety of upholstered and wood furniture such as sofas, loveseats, chairs, reclining and rocker-reclining chairs, swivel rockers, sofa beds, convertible bedding units, occasional tables, desks, dining tables and chairs and bedroom furniture. The Company’s products are intended for use in home, office, motor home, travel trailer, yacht, pontoon, health care and hotel applications. Featured as a basic component in most of the upholstered furniture is a unique steel drop-in seat spring from which our name “Flexsteel” is derived. The Company distributes its products throughout the United States through the Company’s sales force and various independent representatives to furniture dealers, department stores, recreational vehicle manufacturers, catalogs, hospitality and healthcare facilities. The Company’s products are also sold to several national and regional chains, some of which sell on a private label basis. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company has one active wholly-owned subsidiary, DMI Furniture, Inc. (“DMI”), which is a Louisville, Kentucky-based, manufacturer, importer and marketer of residential and commercial office furniture with manufacturing plants and warehouses in Indiana and manufacturing sources in Asia. DMI’s divisions are WYNWOOD, Homestyles and DMI Commercial Office Furniture. The Company has two inactive wholly owned subsidiaries: (1) Desert Dreams, Inc. and (2) Four Seasons, Inc. |
|
|
|
|
2. |
INVENTORIES – The Company values inventory at the lower of cost or market. Raw steel, lumber and wood frame parts are valued on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. Other inventories are valued on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories valued on the LIFO method would have been approximately $3.2 million and $3.3 million higher at September 30, 2008 and June 30, 2008, respectively, if they had been valued on the FIFO method. A comparison of inventories is as follows (in thousands): |

The short-term portion of the credit facility provides working capital financing up to $12.0 million, of which $6.0 million was outstanding at September 30, 2008, with interest selected at the option of the Company at prime (5% at September 30, 2008) or LIBOR (3.7% at September 30, 2008) plus 0.875%. The short-term portion also provides overnight credit when required for operations at prime minus 1.0%. At September 30, 2008, $0.3 million was outstanding related to overnight credit. The long-term portion of the credit facility provides up to $20.0 million, of which $14.0 million was outstanding at September 30, 2008. Variable interest is set monthly at the option of the Company at prime or LIBOR plus 1.0%. The credit facility also provides $0.1 million to support letters of credit issued by the Company of which no amount was outstanding at September 30, 2008. All interest rates are adjusted monthly, except for the overnight portion of the short-term line of credit, which varies daily at the prime rate minus 1.0%. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has effectively fixed the interest rates at 5.0% on approximately $10.0 million of its long-term debt through the use of interest rate swaps. |

The credit agreement contains certain restrictive covenants that require the Company, among other things, to maintain an interest coverage ratio, leverage ratio, and limitations on capital disposals, all as defined in the credit agreement. At September 30, 2008, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants contained in the credit agreement. |

An officer of the Company is a director at a bank where the Company maintains a $4.0 million line of credit, cumulative letter of credit facilities of $5.2 million and where its routine daily banking transactions are processed. The Company is contingently liable to insurance carriers under its comprehensive general, product, and vehicle liability policies, as well as some workers’ compensation, and has provided letters of credit in the amount of $5.2 million. The Company receives no special services or pricing on the services performed by the bank due to the directorship of this officer. At September 30, 2008, $1.0 million was outstanding on the line of credit at prime minus 1.0%. |

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS & HEDGING ACTIVITIES – Related to its variable debt, the Company has interest rate swaps utilized to hedge against adverse changes in interest rates. The notional principal amounts of the outstanding interest rate swaps totaled $10.0 million with a weighted average fixed rate of 5.0% at September 30, 2008. The interest rate swaps are not utilized to take speculative positions. The Board of Directors established the Company’s policies with regard to activities involving derivative instruments. Management, along with the Board of Directors, periodically reviews those policies, along with the actual derivative related results. The Company recorded the fair market value of its interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges on its balance sheet and has marked them to fair value through other comprehensive income. The cumulative fair value of the swaps was a liability of $0.2 million and |

|
|
|
|
|
|
$0.3 million as of September 30, 2008 and June 30, 2008, respectively, and is reflected as other current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2008, all of the derivatives used by the Company in its risk management are highly effective hedges because all of the critical terms of the derivative instruments match those of the hedged item. |

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION – The Company has two stock-based compensation methods available when determining employee compensation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(1) |
2007 Long-Term Management Incentive Compensation Plan – The plan provides for shares of common stock and cash to be awarded to officers and key employees based on performance targets set by the Nominating and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The Committee has selected consolidated operating results for organic net sales growth and fully-diluted earnings per share for the two-year transition period beginning July 1, 2007 and ending on June 30, 2009 and the three-year performance periods beginning July 1, 2007 and ending on June 30, 2010 and beginning July 1, 2008 and ending on June 30, 2011. The Committee has also specified that payouts, if any, for awards earned under the 2007-2009, 2007-2010 and 2008-2011 performance periods will be 60% stock and 40% cash. Awards will be paid to participants as soon as practicable following the end of the performance periods, verification of results, and subject to the negative discretion of the Committee. As the payouts of these awards are subject to the negative discretion of the Committee the grant date is not established until the awards are paid. Accordingly, compensation cost is re-measured based on the award’s estimated fair value at the end of each reporting period prior to the grant date to the extent service has been rendered in comparison to the total requisite service period. Further, the accrual of compensation cost is based on the probable outcomes of the performance conditions. The portion of the accrued award payable in stock is classified within equity and the portion of the accrued award payable in cash is classified within liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The fair value of the equity portion of the award is estimated each period based on the market value of the Company’s common shares reduced by the present value of expected dividends to be paid prior to the service period, discounted using a risk-free interest rate. In the period the grant date occurs, cumulative compensation cost will be adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of measuring compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date. Under the plan the aggregate number of shares and cash that could be awarded to key executives if the target and maximum performance goals are met are as follows: |

No compensation costs were accrued at September 30, 2008. If the target performance goals would be achieved the total amount of stock compensation cost recognized over the requisite service periods would be $0.6 million per year based on the estimated fair values at September 30, 2008. At September 30, 2008, 500,000 shares were available for awards. |

Stock Options Plans – The stock option plans for key employees and directors provide for the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options. Under the plans, options are granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant, and may be exercisable for up to 10 years. All options are exercisable when granted. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected volatility and expected life are determined based on historical data. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At September 30, 2008, 387,700 shares were available for future grants. It is the Company’s policy to issue new shares upon exercise of stock options. The Company does not expect to repurchase any shares during fiscal year 2009 related to stock option exercises. The Company accepts shares of the Company’s common stock as payment for the exercise price of options. These shares received as payment are retired upon receipt. |

INCOME TAXES – In determining our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on our expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available to us in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. This includes recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns to the extent pervasive evidence exists that they will be realized in future periods. The deferred tax balances are adjusted to reflect tax rates by tax jurisdiction, based on currently enacted tax laws, which are expected to be in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. In accordance with our income tax policy, significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur. |
|
|
|
|
|
At both September 30, 2008 and June 30, 2008, the Company had approximately $0.7 million of gross liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits (composed of $0.5 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest and penalties of $0.2 million) and related deferred tax assets of approximately $0.2 million, all of which would affect our effective tax rate if recognized. The Company does not expect that there will be any positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within twelve months. The Company records interest and penalties related to income taxes as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Generally, the tax years 2004–2008 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject. |
|
|
|
|
7. |
LITIGATION – From time to time, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, including lawsuits, which arise out of, and are incidental to, the conduct of the Company’s business. The Company does not consider any of such proceedings that are currently pending, individually or in the aggregate, to be material to its business or likely to result in a material adverse effect on its consolidated operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. |

EARNINGS PER SHARE – Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for each period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares and common equivalent shares. Common equivalent shares represent the effect of stock options during each period presented, which if exercised, would dilute EPS. In computing EPS for the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, net income as reported for each respective period is divided by: |

ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS – In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 on July 1, 2008. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. |
|
|
|
|
|
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings. The provisions of SFAS No. 159 are effective as of the beginning of the Company’s 2009 fiscal year. The Company chose not to adopt SFAS No. 159. |
|
|
|
|
|
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which require additional disclosure related to derivative instruments and hedging activities. The provisions of SFAS No. 161 are effective as of the beginning of the Company’s 2010 fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 161 on its consolidated financial statements. |

FACILITY CONSOLIDATION AND OTHER CHARGES |
|
|
|
|
|
During the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company recorded a $1.4 million charge for facility consolidation and related costs. The charge principally represents employee separation costs and facility closing costs with no future benefit to the Company. The decision to close facilities was driven by the weakening demand for domestically manufactured residential seating products and vehicle seating products in relation to the Company’s production capacity. At September 30, 2008, the remaining accrued costs relate primarily to employee separation costs that are expected to be paid within the next fiscal quarter. |
|

Results of Operations for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007
Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 were $91.4 million compared to the prior year quarter of $100.9 million, a decrease of 9.4%. Residential net sales were $62.0 million, slightly less than prior year quarter net sales of $62.7 million. Recreational vehicle net sales were $5.9 million, compared to $15.7 million, a decrease of 62.1% from the prior year quarter. Commercial net sales were $23.5 million, compared to $22.5 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 4.3%.
Gross margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 was 18.7% compared to 19.6% in the prior year quarter. The decrease in gross margin percentage is primarily due to under-absorption of fixed manufacturing costs on significantly lower sales volume and higher material costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 were 18.3% compared to 17.4% in the prior year quarter. This percentage increase is due to under-absorption of fixed costs on the lower sales volume and an increase in bad debt expense of approximately $0.2 million.
During the current quarter the Company announced the closure of its New Paris, IN recreational vehicle seating manufacturing facility and the end of residential furniture manufacturing at its Lancaster, PA facility. The Company recorded pre-tax charges during the current quarter of approximately $1.4 million, or $0.13 per share after tax related to facility consolidations. The Company anticipates that manufacturing consolidation will be completed by December 31, 2008 and estimates total pre-tax facility consolidation charges in the first half of fiscal year 2009 will be in the range of $2.0 million to $2.5 million.
Operating loss for the current quarter was $1.0 million compared to income of $2.2 million in the prior year quarter reflecting the aforementioned factors.
10
The effective income tax rate was 35.4% and 36.9% in the current and prior year fiscal quarters, respectively. The Company anticipates its effective income tax rate for the fiscal year to be approximately 35.7%. The primary difference between the federal statutory rate and the expected effective rate is the result of state taxes.
The above factors resulted in current quarter net loss of $0.7 million or $0.11 per share, compared to the prior year quarter net income of $1.2 million or $0.18 per share.
All earnings per share amounts are on a diluted basis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating
Activities:
Working Capital (current assets less current liabilities) at September 30, 2008
was $94.5 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.2 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Significant changes in working
capital from June 30, 2008 to September 30, 2008 included decreased accounts
receivable of $2.7 million, decreased inventory of $1.9 million and decreased
accounts payable of $2.5 million. The decrease in receivables is related to
timing of shipments to customers and the related payment terms. The decrease in
inventory is due to lower purchases to support lower sales volume. The decrease
in accounts payable is due to the timing of inventory purchases from suppliers,
the related payment terms and the timing of payments. The Company expects that
due to the nature of our operations that there will be continuing fluctuations
in accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, and cash flows from
operations due to the following: (i) we purchase inventory from overseas
suppliers with long lead times and depending on the timing of the delivery of
those orders inventory levels can be greatly impacted, and (ii) we have various
customers that purchase large quantities of inventory periodically and the
timing of those purchases can significantly impact inventory levels, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings. As discussed below, the
Company believes it has adequate financing arrangements and access to capital
to absorb these fluctuations in operating cash flow.
Investing
Activities:
Capital
expenditures were $0.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.
Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.1 million and $ 1.2 million for
the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The
Company expects that capital expenditures will be approximately $2.5 million
for the remainder of the 2009 fiscal year.
Financing
Activities:
Net cash used
in financing activities was $4.3 million during the quarter ended September 30,
2008. Borrowings were lower by $3.5 million due to reduction in accounts
receivable and inventory. Dividends of $0.9 million were paid during the
quarter.
Management believes that the Company has adequate cash, cash equivalents, and credit arrangements to meet its operating and capital requirements for fiscal year 2009. In the opinion of management, the Company’s liquidity and credit resources provide it with the ability to react to opportunities as they arise, the ability to pay quarterly dividends to its shareholders, and ensures that productive capital assets that enhance safety and improve operations are purchased as needed.
Outlook
The impact of the slowdown of the U. S. economy, where most of our products are sold, has magnified as the news media reports of job losses or layoffs related to cutbacks and closings over a broad spectrum of industries, including the furniture industry. With instability in the financial markets despite government relief efforts, rising prices throughout our supply chain and a changing political landscape, prospects for a recovery appear to be moving further into the future.
In response to these conditions, we continue to adjust our operations and workforce to bring production capacity in line with current and expected demand for our products. Our workforce has been reduced approximately 15% over the past year through layoffs and attrition. As announced in September, we have proceeded with the closing of two long-established manufacturing operations. Our Lancaster, PA facility has produced and distributed high quality residential furniture for over fifty years. As demand tightens and foreign sourced products continue to gain acceptance as providing
11
better value at the retail level, we no longer require this manufacturing capacity for residential products. Our New Paris, IN facility has been an integral part of our success in supplying quality recreational vehicle seating for over twenty-five years. With the recreational vehicle seating industry experiencing such a drastic decline in demand, as reflected by our 62% decrease in recreational vehicle seating net sales from the prior year period, we can no longer support our current capacity. While these are difficult decisions to make, we expect annual pre-tax cost savings of $3.5 million to $4.0 million going forward, and will continue to pursue cost savings in all aspects of our operations.
While we expect that current business conditions will persist for most, if not all, of fiscal year 2009, we remain optimistic that our strategy of a wide range of quality product offerings and price points to the residential, recreational vehicle and commercial markets combined with our conservative approach to business will be rewarded over the longer-term.

Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
General – Market risk represents the risk of changes in value of a financial instrument, derivative or non-derivative, caused by fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices. As discussed below, management of the Company does not believe that changes in these factors could cause material fluctuations in the Company’s results of operations or cash flows. The ability to import furniture products can be adversely affected by political issues in the countries where suppliers are located, disruptions associated with shipping distances and negotiations with port employees. Other risks related to furniture product importation include government imposition of regulations and/or quotas; duties and taxes on imports; and significant fluctuation in the value of the U. S. dollar against foreign currencies. Any of these factors could interrupt supply, increase costs and decrease earnings.
Foreign Currency Risk –During the three-months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not have sales, purchases, or other expenses denominated in foreign currencies. As such, the Company is not exposed to material market risk associated with currency exchange rates and prices.
Interest Rate Risk – The Company’s primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is changes in interest rates. At September 30, 2008, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in short-term interest rates would decrease annual pre-tax earnings by approximately $0.1 million, assuming no change in the volume or composition of debt. On September 30, 2008, the Company had effectively fixed the interest rates at 5.0% on approximately $10.0 million of its long-term debt through the use of interest rate swaps. As of September 30, 2008, the cumulative fair value of the swaps is a liability of approximately $0.2 million and is included in other current liabilities.
Tariffs – The Company has exposure to actions by governments, including tariffs. Tariffs are a possibility on any imported or exported products.
Inflation – Increased operating costs are reflected in product or services pricing with any limitations on price increases determined by the marketplace. The impact of inflation on the Company has not been significant during the past three years because of the relatively low rates of inflation experienced in the United States. Raw material costs, labor costs and interest rates are important components of costs for the Company. Inflation or other pricing pressures could impact any or all of these components, with a possible adverse effect on our profitability, especially where increases in these costs exceed price increases on finished products. In recent years, the Company has faced strong inflationary and other pricing pressures with respect to steel, fuel and health care costs, which have been partially mitigated by pricing adjustments.

Controls and Procedures |
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and chief financial officer (“CFO”) of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2008 because they are not yet able to conclude that we have remediated the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.
12
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. As of June 30, 2008, our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness is related to the design and operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s material consolidated subsidiary’s reconciliation of accounts payable records to the general ledger.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, we have implemented the following remediation steps to address the material weakness discussed above:
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
Simplified the account structure surrounding the accounts payable transactions by reducing the number of general ledger accounts used to record accounts payable, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
Improved the accounts payable reconciliation process by revising the automatic postings to accounts payable, and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
Enhanced the quarterly management review and approval of the accounts payable reconciliation process with our subsidiary associates. |
We believe these remediation steps will correct the material weakness discussed above. We will assess the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in connection with our management’s tests of internal control over financial reporting in conjunction with our fiscal year 2009 testing procedures. Except as discussed above, we have not identified any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
