INVACARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2013
Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations: Invacare Corporation is a leading manufacturer and distributor of medical equipment and supplies used in the home based upon the company’s distribution channels, breadth of product line and net sales. The company designs, manufactures and distributes an extensive line of health care products for the non-acute care environment, including the home health care, retail and extended care markets.
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and include all adjustments, which were of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the company as of June 30, 2013, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and changes in its cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Certain foreign subsidiaries, represented by the European segment, are consolidated using a May 31 quarter end in order to meet filing deadlines. No material subsequent events have occurred related to the European segment, which would require disclosure or adjustment to the company's financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Use of Estimates: The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation Plans: The company accounts for share-based compensation under the provisions of Compensation-Stock Compensation, ASC 718. The company has not made any modifications to the terms of any previously granted options and no significant changes have been made regarding the valuation methodologies used to determine the fair value of options granted. The company continues to use a Black-Scholes valuation model.
The substantial majority of the options awarded have been granted at exercise prices equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted without cost to the recipients are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. The amounts of stock-based compensation expense recognized were as follows (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2013 | | 2012 | | 2013 | | 2012 |
Stock-based compensation expense recognized as part of selling, general and administrative expense | $ | 1,414 |
| | $ | 1,456 |
| | $ | 2,574 |
| | $ | 2,990 |
|
The amounts above reflect compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and nonqualified stock options awarded under the 2003 Performance Plan (the “2003 Plan”). Stock-based compensation is not allocated to the business segments, but is reported as part of All Other as shown in the company's Business Segment Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In February, 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
(ASU 2013-02 or the ASU). ASU 2013-02 requires companies to report, in one place, changes in and reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI). The ASU does not change what is required to be reported in OCI. The company adopted ASU 2013-02 in the first quarter of 2013 with no impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Balance Sheets or Statement of Cash Flows. See Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the Notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, and in January, 2013, issued ASU 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2013-01). ASU 2013-01 is intended to help investors and other financial statement users to better assess the effect or potential effect of offsetting arrangements on an entity's financial position and requires companies to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial position; and to disclose instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. The company adopted ASU 2013-01 in the first quarter of 2013 with no impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Balance Sheets or Statement of Cash Flows. See Derivatives in the Notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements. See Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the Notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2013
Discontinued Operations
On December 21, 2012, as part of the company's globalization strategy, and to allow it to focus on its core equipment product lines, the company's board of directors approved of the company entering into an agreement to sell Invacare Supply Group (ISG) and accordingly the company determined on that date that the "held for sale" criteria of ASC 360-10-45-9 were met. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of ISG (long-lived asset disposal group) are shown at their carrying amounts, which are lower than the fair values less cost to sale as of December 31, 2012.
On January 18, 2013, the company completed the sale of the ISG medical supplies business for a purchase price of approximately $150,800,000 in cash, which is subject to final post-closing adjustments. ISG had been operated on a standalone basis and reported as a reportable segment of the company. The company recorded a gain of approximately $59,402,000 pre-tax in the first quarter of 2013 which represents the excess of the net sales price over the book value of the assets and liabilities of ISG. The sale of this business is dilutive to the Company's results. The Company utilized the proceeds from the sale to reduce debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility in the first quarter of 2013. The company recorded expenses related to the sale of approximately $5,350,000 of which $3,225,000 were paid out as of June 30, 2013. The gain recorded by the company reflects the company's estimated final purchase adjustments. The company recorded an intra-period tax allocation expense to discontinued operations in the first quarter based on the company's estimate of projected domestic loss related to continuing operations for 2013. A change in estimate of the continuing domestic loss for the year occurred in the second quarter principally related to the receipt of foreign dividends. Accordingly, an adjustment was required in the second quarter related to intra-period tax expense allocation to discontinued operations which reduced expense resulting in a benefit of $10,580,000 recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
The assets and liabilities of ISG that were sold are shown as held for sale in the company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and are comprised of the following (in thousands):
|
| | | | |
| | December 31, 2012 |
| |
Trade receivables, net | | $ | 44,196 |
|
Inventories, net | | 25,165 |

|
Accrued expenses | | 4,602 |
|
Accrued income taxes | | 1,064 |
|
Liabilities held for sale - current | | $ | 23,358 |
|
The net sales of the discontinued operation were $0 and $18,498,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and $82,205,000 and $160,670,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Earnings before income taxes for the discontinued operation were $0 and $402,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and $3,699,000 and $6,809,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
The company will continue to sell product to the acquirer of ISG and expects to provide certain transitional services to the acquirer over a period of less than one year from the date of sale. The net cash flows expected to be paid and received related to such product sales and transitional services are not expected to be significant.
The company has classified ISG as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
INVACARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2013
Receivables
Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. Substantially all of the company’s receivables are due from health care, medical equipment providers and long term care facilities located throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Europe. A significant portion of products sold to providers, both foreign and domestic, is ultimately funded through government reimbursement programs such as Medicare and Medicaid in the U.S. As a consequence, changes in these programs can have an adverse impact on dealer liquidity and profitability. The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts ($22,158,000 at June 30, 2013 and $22,213,000 at December 31, 2012) is based primarily on management’s evaluation of the financial condition of specific customers. In addition, as a result of the company's third party financing arrangement with De Lage Landen, Inc. ("DLL"), a third party financing company which the company has worked with since 2000, management monitors the collection status of these contracts in accordance with the company’s limited recourse obligations and provides amounts necessary for estimated losses in the allowance for doubtful accounts and establishing reserves for specific customers as needed. The company charges off uncollectible trade accounts receivable after such receivables are moved to collection status and legal remedies are exhausted. See Concentration of Credit Risk in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the financing arrangement. Long-term installment receivables are included in “Other Assets” on the consolidated balance sheet.
The company’s U.S. customers electing to finance their purchases can do so using DLL. In addition, the company often provides financing directly for its Canadian customers for which DLL is not an option. The installment receivables recorded on the books of the company represent a single portfolio segment of finance receivables to the independent provider channel. The portfolio segment is comprised of two classes of receivables distinguished by geography and credit quality. The U.S. installment receivables are the first class and represent installment receivables re-purchased from DLL because the customers were in default. Default with DLL is defined as a customer being delinquent by 3 payments. The Canadian installment receivables represent the second class of installment receivables which were originally financed by the company because third party financing was not available to the HME providers. The Canadian installment receivables are typically financed for 12 months and historically have had a very low risk of default.
The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts and evaluation for impairment for both classes of installment receivables is based on the company’s quarterly review of the financial condition of each individual customer with the allowance for doubtful accounts adjusted accordingly. Installments are individually and not collectively reviewed for impairment. The company assesses the bad debt reserve levels based upon the status of the customer’s adherence to a legally negotiated payment schedule and the company’s ability to enforce judgments, liens, etc.
For purposes of granting or extending credit, the company utilizes a scoring model to generate a composite score that considers each customer’s consumer credit score and/or D&B credit rating, payment history, security collateral and time in business. Additional analysis is performed for customers desiring credit greater than $250,000 which includes a detailed review of the customer’s financials as well as consideration of other factors such as exposure to changing reimbursement laws.
Interest income is recognized on installment receivables based on the terms of the installment agreements. Installment accounts are monitored and if a customer defaults on payments and is moved to collection, interest income is no longer recognized. Subsequent payments received once an account is put on non-accrual status are generally first applied to the principal balance and then to the interest. Accruing of interest on collection accounts would only be restarted if the account became current again. All installment accounts are accounted for using the same methodology regardless of the duration of the installment agreements. When an account is placed in collection status, the company goes through a legal process of adjudication which typically approximates 18 months. Any write-offs are made after the legal process has been completed. The company has not made any changes to either its accounting policies or methodology to estimation allowances for doubtful accounts in the last twelve months.

Installment receivables with a related allowance recorded as noted in the table above represent those installment receivables on a non-accrual basis in accordance with ASU 2010-20. As of June 30, 2013, the company had no U.S. installment receivables past due of 90 days or more for which the company is still accruing interest. Individually, all U.S. installment receivables are assigned a specific allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s review when the company does not expect to receive both the contractual principal and interest payments as specified in the loan agreement. However, while the full balance may be deemed to be impaired, the company has historically collected a large percentage of the principal of its U.S. installment receivables.
The company had an immaterial amount of Canadian installment receivables which were past due of 90 days or more as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 for which the company is still accruing interest. The aging of the company’s installment receivables was as follows (in thousands):

Accrued rebates relate to several volume incentive programs the company offers its customers. The company accounts for these rebates as a reduction of revenue when the products are sold in accordance with the guidance in ASC 605-50, Customer Payments and Incentives.
Generally, the company's products are covered from the date of sale to the customer by warranties against defects in material and workmanship for various periods depending on the product. Certain components carry a lifetime warranty. A provision for estimated warranty cost is recorded at the time of sale based upon actual experience. The company continuously assesses the adequacy of its product warranty accrual and makes adjustments as needed. Historical analysis is primarily used to determine the company's warranty reserves. Claims history is reviewed and provisions are adjusted as needed. However, the company does consider other events, such as a product recall, which could warrant additional warranty reserve provision. The increase in the liability for pre-existing warranties in 2013 is primarily the result of product recalls. The warranty accrual for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 includes anticipated warranty expense related to a power wheelchair component performance issue of $3,800,000. The increase in the warranty accrual is primarily in the Asia/Pacific segment. The company expects to work closely with the FDA to finalize its action plan related to the power wheelchair performance issue. Warranty expense was also reversed in the North America/HME segment for the closure of prior field actions.

The reduction in debt during the year was the result of utilizing the proceeds from the sale of the discontinued operation ISG to reduce borrowing under the company's revolving credit agreement. On May 30, 2013, the company entered into a Fourth Amendment ("the Amendment") to its Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amendment, the Credit Agreement was amended to, for the following: (i) decrease the aggregate principal amount of the revolving credit facility to $250,000,000 from $400,000,000, and limit the Company's borrowings under the revolving credit facility to an amount not to exceed $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount through December 31, 2013; (ii) increase the maximum leverage ratio (consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended) to 4.00 to 1.00 from 3.50 to 1.00 until January 1, 2014, when the maximum leverage ratio will revert back to 3.50 to 1.00; (iii) decrease the minimum interest coverage ratio (consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest charges, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended) to 3.00 to 1.00 from 3.50 to 1.00 until January 1, 2014, when the minimum interest coverage ratio will revert back to 3.50 to 1.00; (iv) in calculating consolidated EBITDA for purposes of determining the ratios, provide for the add back to consolidated EBITDA of up to an additional $15,000,000 for future one-time cash restructuring charges and (v) provide for an increase of (A) 25 basis points in the margin applicable to determining the interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and letter of credit fees and (B) 10 basis points in the commitment fee, all during periods when the leverage ratio exceeds 3.50 to 1.00. As a result, the company incurred $436,000 in fees which were capitalized and are being amortized through October, 2015. In addition, as a result of reducing the capacity of the facility from $400,000,000 to $250,000,000, the company wrote-off $1,216,000 in fees previously capitalized, which is reflected in the expense of the North America / HME segment.
In 2007, the company issued $135,000,000 principal amount of Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027. The debentures are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of the company guaranteed by substantially all of the company’s domestic subsidiaries, pay interest at 4.125% per annum on each February 1 and August 1, and are convertible upon satisfaction of certain conditions into cash, common shares of the company, or a combination of cash and common shares of the company, subject to certain conditions. The debentures allow the company to satisfy the conversion using any combination of cash or stock, and at the company’s discretion. The company intends to satisfy the accreted value of the debentures using cash. Assuming adequate cash on hand at the time of conversion, the company also intends to satisfy the conversion spread using cash, as opposed to stock.
The company may from time to time seek to retire or purchase its 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such purchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, the company's liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material.
The liability components of the company’s convertible debt consist of the following (in thousands):

The company is a party to interest rate swap agreements to effectively convert a portion of floating rate revolving credit facility debt to fixed rate debt to avoid the risk of changes in market interest rates. Specifically, interest rate swap agreements for notional amounts of $22,000,000 through September 2013 and $12,000,000 through April 2014 were entered into that fix the LIBOR component of the interest rate on that portion of the revolving credit facility debt at rates of 0.46% and 0.54% respectively, for effective aggregate rates of 2.46% and 2.54%, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, the weighted average floating interest rate on borrowing was 2.14% compared to 2.21% as of December 31, 2012.
Shareholders’ Equity Transactions
On May 16, 2013 shareholders approved the Invacare Corporation 2013 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which was adopted on March 27, 2013 by the company's Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Board adopted the 2013 Plan because the ten-year term of the company's prior equity plan, the Invacare Corporation Amended and Restated 2003 Performance Plan (the “2003 Plan”), expired on May 21, 2013. No new awards will be granted under the 2003 Plan following its expiration, but awards granted prior to its expiration will remain in effect under their original terms.
The 2013 Plan uses a fungible share-counting method, under which each common share underlying an award of stock options or SARs will count against the number of total shares available under the 2013 Plan as one share; and each common share underlying any award other than a stock option or a stock appreciation rights (“SAR”) will count against the number of total shares available under the 2013 Plan as two shares. Any common shares that are added back to the 2013 Plan as the result of the cancellation or forfeiture of an award granted under the 2013 Plan will be added back in the same manner such shares were originally counted against the total number of shares available under the 2013 Plan. Each common share that is added back to the 2013 Plan due to a cancellation or forfeiture of an award granted under the 2003 Plan will be added back as one common share.
The Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board (the “Committee”), in its discretion, may grant an award under the 2013 Plan to any director or employee of the company or an affiliate. The 2013 Plan initially allows the Committee to grant up to 4,460,337 Common Shares in connection with the following types of awards with respect to shares of the company's common shares: incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, SARs, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, and performance shares. The Committee also may grant performance units that are payable in cash. The Committee has the authority to determine which participants will receive awards, the amount of the awards and the other terms and conditions of the awards.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Committee granted 756,700 non-qualified stock options, each having a term of ten years and generally granted at the fair market value of the company’s Common Shares on the date of grant. In addition, restricted stock awards for 114,700 shares were granted without cost to the recipients which vest ratably over the four years after the award date. Compensation expense of $1,014,000 was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2013 related to restricted stock awards and there were outstanding restricted stock awards totaling 362,323 shares that were not vested.
As of June 30, 2013, there was $15,825,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost from stock-based compensation arrangements granted under the plan, which is related to non-vested options and shares, and includes $4,722,000 related to restricted stock awards. The company expects the compensation expense to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately two years.

When stock options are awarded, they generally become exercisable over a four-year vesting period whereby options vest in equal installments each year. Options granted with graded vesting are accounted for as single options. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected life. The assumed expected life is based on the company's historical analysis of option history. The expected stock price volatility is also based on actual historical volatility, and expected dividend yield is based on historical dividends as the company has no current intention of changing its dividend policy.
The 2013 Plan provides that shares granted come from the company's authorized but unissued Common Shares or treasury shares. In addition, the company's stock-based compensation plans allow employee participants to exchange shares for minimum withholding taxes, which results in the company acquiring treasury shares.

Charges Related to Restructuring Activities
Historically, the company's restructuring charges were necessitated primarily by continued declines in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement by the U.S. government, as well as similar healthcare reimbursement pressures abroad, which negatively affect the company's customers (e.g. home health care providers) and continued pricing pressures faced by the company as a result of outsourcing by competitors to lower cost locations. In addition, restructuring actions principally in the North America/HME segment have been precipitated by the negative impact on the business related to the consent decree which has resulted in a sales decline in customer power wheelchairs, which is one of the company's higher margin product lines. While the company's restructuring efforts have been executed on a timely basis resulting in operating cost savings, the savings have been more than offset by continued margin decline, principally as a result of volume declines, unfavorable product mix, and higher regulatory and compliance costs related to quality system improvements. The company expects any near-term cost savings from restructuring will be offset by higher regulatory and compliance costs related to quality system improvements at least until the company has completed its quality systems remediation efforts.
The company's restructuring commenced in the second quarter of 2011 with the company's decision to close the Hong, Denmark assembly facility as part of the company's ongoing globalization initiative to reduce complexity in the company's supply chain which is intended to reduce expenses to help offset pricing pressures. In the third quarter of 2011, the company continued to execute on the closure of the Hong, Denmark assembly facility and initiated the closure of a smaller facility in the U.S. Charges for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 were primarily incurred at the company's corporate headquarters for severance, with additional costs incurred as a result of the closure of the Hong, Denmark facility. The facility closures were completed in 2012 in addition to the elimination of various positions principally in the North America/Home Medical Equipment (HME) and Asia/Pacific segments.
Charges for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $10,534,000 including charges for severance ($8,352,000), contract exit costs primarily related to the closure of the Hong, Denmark assembly facility ($1,788,000) and inventory write-offs ($277,000) recorded in cost of products sold and miscellaneous costs ($117,000). The majority of the 2011 North America/HME charges were incurred for severance, primarily at the corporate headquarters as the result of the elimination of various positions principally in sales and administration in Elyria, Ohio. These eliminations were permanent reductions in workforce which primarily resulted in reduced selling, general and administrative expenses. In Europe, the charges were the result of the closure of the company's Hong, Denmark facility. The assembly activities were transferred to other company facilities or outsourced to third parties. This closure enabled the company to reduce fixed operating costs related to the facility and reduce headcount with the transfer of a portion of the production to other company facilities. The 2011 charges have now been paid out and were funded with operating cash flows.
Charges for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $11,395,000 including charges for severance ($6,775,000), lease termination costs ($1,725,000), building and asset write-downs, primarily related to the closure of the Hong, Denmark assembly facility, and other miscellaneous charges in Europe and Asia/Pacific ($2,404,000) and inventory write-offs ($491,000) in Asia/Pacific recorded in cost of products sold. Severance charges were primarily incurred in the North America/HME segment ($4,242,000), Asia/Pacific segment ($1,681,000) and Europe segment ($817,000). The charges were incurred as a result of the elimination of various positions as part of the company's globalization initiatives. In addition, a portion of the North America/HME segment severance was related to positions eliminated, principally in sales and marketing as well as manufacturing, at the company's Taylor Street facility as a result of the FDA consent decree. The savings from these charges will be reflected primarily in reduced selling, general and administrative expenses and manufacturing expenses for the company. In Europe, positions were eliminated as a result of finalizing the exit from the manufacturing facility in Denmark and an elimination of a senior management position in Switzerland. In Asia/Pacific, the company's management approved in the fourth quarter of 2012 a plan to restructure the company's operations in this segment. In Australia, the company consolidated offices / warehouses, decreased staffing and exited various activities while returning to a focus on distribution. At the company's subsidiary, which produces microprocessor controllers, the company decided to cease the contract manufacturing business for companies outside of the healthcare industry. Payments for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $9,381,000 and were funded with operating cash flows. The majority of the 2012 charges are expected to be paid out during 2013.
Restructuring continued during 2013 resulting in restructuring charges of $5,114,000 in the first six months of 2013 principally for severance in NA/HME and Asia/Pacific and to a lesser extent Europe and IPG as a result of the permanent elimination of certain positions. Payments for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $6,205,000 and were funded with the company's credit facility. The majority of the outstanding charge accruals at June 30, 2013 are expected to be paid out within the next twelve months.

There have been no material changes in accrued balances related to the charges, either as a result of revisions in the plan or changes in estimates. In addition, the savings anticipated as a result of the company's restructuring plans have been or are expected to be achieved, primarily resulting in reduced salary and benefit costs principally impacting selling, general and administrative expenses, and to a lesser extent, costs of products sold. However, these savings have been more than offset by continued margin decline, principally as a result of volume declines, unfavorable product mix, and higher regulatory and compliance costs related to quality system improvements. To date, the company's liquidity has not been materially impacted by the company's restructuring charges.
A progression by reporting segment of the accruals recorded as a result of the restructuring is as follows (in thousands):

Income Taxes
The company had an effective tax rate of 85.9% and 13.1% on losses before tax from continuing operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, compared to an expected benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was greater than the U.S. federal statutory rate, principally due to losses overseas without tax benefit due to valuation allowances and an adjustment to the intraperiod tax allocation due to the impact of a discrete tax expense related to dividends for earnings previously deemed permanently reinvested overseas received in the U.S. during the second quarter of $9,702,000 ($0.30 per share). The rate was benefited by taxes outside the United States, excluding countries with valuation allowances that are in losses in 2013, recorded at a lower effective rate than the U.S. statutory rate. The company had an effective tax rate of 162.9% and 90.8% on earnings before tax from continuing operation for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to an expected rate at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was greater than the U.S. federal statutory rate, principally due to a foreign discrete tax adjustment of $9,010,000 ($0.28 per share), recorded in the second quarter of 2012, of which $3,014,000 was interest, related to prior year periods under audit, which is being contested by the company. This adjustment was partially offset by foreign earnings taxed at an effective rate lower than the U.S. statutory rate principally due to foreign taxes recognized at rates below the U.S. statutory rate.

For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, there were no shares necessary to settle a conversion spread on the convertible notes to be included in the common shares assuming dilution as the average market price of the company stock for these periods did not exceed the conversion price.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The company manufactures and distributes durable medical equipment and supplies to the home health care, retail and extended care markets. The company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. The company utilizes De Lage Landen, Inc. (“DLL”), a third party financing company, to provide the majority of future lease financing to the company’s North America customers. The DLL agreement provides for direct leasing between DLL and the Invacare customer. The company retains a recourse obligation which was $6,294,000 at June 30, 2013 to DLL for events of default under the leasing contracts, which total $53,568,000 at June 30, 2013. The company monitors the collections status of these contracts and has provided amounts for estimated losses in its allowances for doubtful accounts in accordance with Receivables, ASC 310-10-05-4. Credit losses are provided for in the financial statements.
Substantially all of the company’s receivables are due from health care, medical equipment providers and long term care facilities located throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Europe. A significant portion of products sold to dealers, both foreign and domestic, is ultimately funded through government reimbursement programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. The company has also seen a significant shift in reimbursement to customers from managed care entities. As a consequence, changes in these programs can have an adverse impact on dealer liquidity and profitability. In addition, reimbursement guidelines in the home health care industry have a substantial impact on the nature and type of equipment an end user can obtain as well as the timing of reimbursement and, thus, affect the product mix, pricing and payment patterns of the company’s customers.
Derivatives
ASC 815 requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments in the consolidated balance sheet as either assets or liabilities at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value of a derivative is dependent upon whether or not the derivative has been designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment and the type of hedging relationship. For derivatives designated and qualifying as hedging instruments, the company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.
Cash Flow Hedging Strategy
The company uses derivative instruments in an attempt to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk. Foreign currency forward exchange contracts are used to manage the price risk associated with forecasted sales denominated in foreign currencies and the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of inventory over the next twelve months. Interest rate swaps are, at times, utilized to manage interest rate risk associated with the company’s fixed and floating-rate borrowings.
The company recognizes its derivative instruments as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet measured at fair value. A majority of the company’s derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item, if any, is recognized in current earnings during the period of change.
During the first six months of 2013 and 2012, the company was a party to interest rate swap agreements that qualified as cash flow hedges and effectively converted floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt, so the company could avoid the risk of changes in market interest rates. The gains or losses on interest rate swaps are reflected in interest expense on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).
INVACARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2013
To protect against increases/decreases in forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from inventory purchases/sales over the next year, the company utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to hedge portions of its forecasted purchases/sales denominated in foreign currencies. The gains and losses are included in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). If it is later determined that a hedged forecasted transaction is unlikely to occur, any prospective gains or losses on the forward contracts would be recognized in earnings. The company does not expect any material amount of hedge ineffectiveness related to forward contract cash flow hedges during the next twelve months.
The company has historically not recognized any material amount of ineffectiveness related to forward contract cash flow hedges because the company generally limits its hedges to between 60% and 90% of total forecasted transactions for a given entity’s exposure to currency rate changes and the transactions hedged are recurring in nature. Furthermore, the majority of the hedged transactions are related to intercompany sales and purchases for which settlement occurs on a specific day each month. Forward contracts with a total notional amount in USD of $47,178,000 and $80,673,000 matured during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to forward contracts with a total notional amount in USD of $47,191,000 and $84,158,000 that matured during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

Derivatives Not Qualifying or Designated for Hedge Accounting Treatment
The company also utilizes foreign currency forward contracts that are not designated as hedges in accordance with ASC 815. These contracts are entered into to eliminate the risk associated with the settlement of short-term intercompany trading receivables and payables between Invacare Corporation and its foreign subsidiaries. The currency forward contracts are entered into at the same time as the intercompany receivables or payables are created so that upon settlement, the gain/loss on the settlement is offset by the gain/loss on the foreign currency forward contract. No material net gain or loss was realized by the company in 2013 or 2012 related to these forward contracts and the associated short-term intercompany trading receivables and payables.

The pre-tax gains or losses recognized as the result of the settlement of cash flow hedge foreign currency forward contracts are recognized in net sales for hedges of inventory sales or cost of product sold for hedges of inventory purchases. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, net sales were increased by $317,000 and $453,000 and cost of product sold was decreased by $20,000 and increased by $336,000 for net realized gains of $337,000 and $117,000. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, net sales were decreased by $63,000 and increased by $195,000 and cost of product sold was decreased by $753,000 and $1,317,000 for net realized gains of $690,000 and $1,512,000.
The company recognized expense of $80,000 and $306,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, compared to expense of $147,000 and $273,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, related to interest rate swap agreements, which is reflected in interest expense on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).

Gains of $1,427,000 and $256,000 versus losses of $102,000 and $18,000 were recognized in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, on ineffective forward contracts and forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments that are entered into to offset gains/losses also recorded in SG&A expenses on intercompany trade payables. Any gains/losses on the non designated hedging instruments were substantially offset by gains/losses also recorded in SG&A expenses on intercompany trade payables.
The company has entered into foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swap contracts (the “agreements”) with various bank counterparties, each of which are subject to provisions which are similar to a master netting agreement. The agreements provide for a net settlement payment in a single currency upon a default by the company. Furthermore, the agreements provide the counterparty with a right of set off in the event of a default that would enable the counterparty to offset any net payment due by the counterparty to the company under the applicable agreement by any amount due by the company to the counterparty under any other agreement. For example, the terms of the agreement would permit a counterparty to a derivative contract that is also a lender under the company's Credit Agreement to reduce any derivative settlement amounts owed to the company under the derivative contract by any amounts owed to the counterparty by the company under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the agreements contain cross-default provisions that could trigger a default by the company under the agreement in the event of a default by the company under another agreement with the same counterparty. The company does not present any derivatives on a net basis in its financial statements and all derivative balances presented are subject to provisions that are similar to master netting agreements.
Fair Values
Pursuant to ASC 820, the inputs used to derive the fair value of assets and liabilities are analyzed and assigned a level I, II or III priority, with level I being the highest and level III being the lowest in the hierarchy. Level I inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level II inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets: quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. Level III inputs are based on valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.
The following table provides a summary of the company’s assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis (in thousands).

Forward Contracts: The company operates internationally and as a result is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Specifically, the exposure includes intercompany and third party sales or payments as well as intercompany loans. In an attempt to reduce this exposure, foreign currency forward contracts are utilized and accounted for as hedging instruments. The forward contracts are used to hedge the following currencies: AUD, CAD, CHF, CNY, DKK, EUR, GBP, MXP, NOK, NZD, SEK and USD. The company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Fair values for the company’s foreign currency forward exchange contracts are based on quoted market prices for contracts with similar maturities.

The company, in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments, used the following methods and assumptions:
Cash, cash equivalents: The carrying value reported in the balance sheet for cash, cash equivalents equals its fair value.
Other investments: The company has made other investments in limited partnerships and non-marketable equity securities, which are accounted for using the cost method, adjusted for any estimated declines in value. These investments were acquired in private placements and there are no quoted market prices or stated rates of return and the company does not have the ability to easily sell these investments.
Installment receivables: The carrying value reported in the balance sheet for installment receivables approximates its fair value. The interest rates associated with these receivables have not varied significantly since inception. Management believes that after consideration of the credit risk, the net book value of the installment receivables approximates market value.
Long-term debt: Fair values for the company’s convertible debt and revolving credit facility are based upon the company’s estimate of the market for similar borrowing arrangements.
Forward contracts and interest rate swaps: Fair values for the company’s forward contracts are based on quoted market prices, while the fair values of the interest rate swaps are based on model-derived calculations using inputs that are observable in active markets.
Business Segments
The company operates in four primary business segments: North America/Home Medical Equipment (North America/HME), Institutional Products Group (IPG), Europe and Asia/Pacific. The North America/HME segment sells each of three primary product lines, which includes: lifestyle, mobility and seating and respiratory therapy products. IPG sells or rents long-term care medical equipment, health care furnishings and accessory products. Europe and Asia/Pacific sell product lines similar to North America/HME and IPG. Each business segment sells to the home health care, retail and extended care markets.
The company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes for each reportable segment. The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies for the company’s consolidated financial statements. Intersegment sales and transfers are based on the costs to manufacture plus a reasonable profit element. Therefore, intercompany profit or loss on intersegment sales and transfers is not considered in evaluating segment performance except for Asia/Pacific due to its significant intercompany sales volume relative to the segment.

Contingencies
General
In the ordinary course of its business, the company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits, primarily product liability actions in which various plaintiffs seek damages for injuries allegedly caused by defective products. All of the product liability lawsuits in the United States have been referred to the company's captive insurance company and/or excess insurance carriers while all non-U.S. lawsuits have been referred to the company's commercial insurance carriers. All such lawsuits are generally contested vigorously. The coverage territory of the company's insurance is worldwide with the exception of those countries with respect to which, at the time the product is sold for use or at the time a claim is made, the U.S. government has suspended or prohibited diplomatic or trade relations. The amount recorded for identified contingent liabilities is based on estimates. Amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating certain exposures.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2013
As a medical device manufacturer, the company is subject to extensive government regulation, including numerous laws directed at preventing fraud and abuse and laws regulating reimbursement under various government programs. The marketing, invoicing, documenting and other practices of health care suppliers and manufacturers are all subject to government scrutiny. Violations of law or regulations can result in administrative, civil and criminal penalties and sanctions, including disqualification from Medicare and other reimbursement programs, which could have a material adverse effect on the company's business.
FDA Matters
The FDA regulates virtually all aspects of the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, promotion, distribution and marketing of a medical device. The company's failure to comply with the regulatory requirements of the FDA and other applicable U.S. medical device regulatory requirements may subject the company to administrative or judicially imposed sanctions. These sanctions include warning letters, civil penalties, criminal penalties, injunctions, consent decrees, product seizure or detention, product recalls and total or partial suspension of production.
As previously disclosed, in December 2011, the FDA requested that the company agree to a consent decree of injunction with respect to the company's Corporate facility and its Taylor Street wheelchair manufacturing facility in Elyria, Ohio. In December 2012, the company reached agreement with the FDA on the terms of the consent decree, which was approved and made effective by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio on December 21, 2012. The consent decree limits the company's manufacture and distribution of power and manual wheelchairs, wheelchair components and wheelchair sub-assemblies at or from its Taylor Street manufacturing facility. The decree also temporarily had limited design activities related to wheelchairs and power beds that take place at the impacted Elyria, Ohio facilities, and these design restrictions were removed on July 15, 2013. The company is entitled to continue to produce from the Taylor Street manufacturing facility certain medically necessary products, as well as ongoing replacement, service and repair of products already in use, under terms delineated in the consent decree and is able to fulfill purchase orders and quotes that were in the company's order fulfillment system prior to the effective date of the decree. Under the terms of the consent decree, in order to resume full operations at the impacted facilities, the company must successfully complete a third-party expert certification audit and receive written notification from the FDA. The certification audit is comprised of three distinct reports. The expert certification audit will be followed by an FDA inspection of the company's compliance with the quality system regulations. Each of the three audits will result in a third-party expert report that will be reviewed by the FDA which will complete its own review procedures. The FDA has the authority to reinspect at any time. Once satisfied with the company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities.
At the time of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the company has completed the first two of its third-party expert certification audits, and the FDA has found the results of both to be acceptable. In these reports, the third-party expert certified that the company's equipment and process validation procedures and its design control systems are compliant with the FDA's Quality System Regulation. As a result of the FDA's approval of the first certification audit, the Taylor Street facility was able to resume supplying parts and components for the further manufacturing of medical devices at other company facilities. The company's receipt of the FDA's approval on the second certification report resulted in the company being able to resume design activities related to power wheelchairs and power beds. The third, most comprehensive third-party certification audit is a comprehensive review of the company's compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulation at the impacted Elyria facilities.
The company began its third, final and most comprehensive third party certification audit in late March, and, in light of the scope and complexity of the audit, the company now expects the third-party certification report to be completed and filed with the FDA by mid-November 2013. Once completed, according to the consent decree, the FDA has thirty (30) days after receipt of the third expert certification audit results to commence its own inspection. However, it is possible that the FDA could ask questions or seek additional information concerning the third certification report. It is not possible for the company to estimate the timing or potential response of the FDA's inspection and subsequent written notifications. Following successful completion of the FDA inspection and the company's receipt of written notification from the FDA that the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities appear to be in compliance, the company may resume full operations at those facilities.
As described above, because the limitations on production will only be temporary in nature, and partial production will be allowed, the company does not anticipate any major repair, replacement or scrapping of its fixed assets at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility. Based on the company's expectations at the time of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with respect to the time frame for completion of the third-party expert certifications audits and FDA inspection and with respect to future cash flows from production at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility, the company concluded that there is no impairment in the value of the fixed assets related to the Taylor Street manufacturing facility at June 30, 2013.

The majority of the production from the Taylor Street facility is "made to order" custom wheelchairs for customers and, as a result, there was not a significant amount of finished goods inventory on hand at June 30, 2013. At the time of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the company believed that it would be able to obtain substantially all of the documentation required under the consent decree in order to complete the manufacture and shipment from the Taylor Street facility of the orders in the company's order fulfillment system and thus, the company concluded that there was not an impairment of the work in process and finished goods at the Taylor Street facility at June 30, 2013. Further, based on its analysis of the raw material inventory at the Taylor Street facility and the company's expectations at the time of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with respect to the time frame for completion of the third-party expert certification audits and FDA inspection, the company concluded that the value of the inventory was not excessive or impaired at June 30, 2013. However, if the company's expectations regarding the impacts of the limitations in the consent decree or the time frame for completion of the third-party expert certification audits and FDA inspection were to change, the company may, in future periods, conclude that an impairment exists with respect to its fixed assets or inventory at the Taylor Street facility.
The North America/HME segment is the segment primarily impacted by the limitations in the consent decree. During 2012, before the effectiveness of the consent decree, the company started to experience decreases in net sales in this segment. Those decreases were primarily related to delays in new product introductions, uncertainty on the part of the company's customers as they coped with prepayment reviews and post-payment audits by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") and contemplated their participation in the next round of National Competitive Bidding ("NCB"), and, the company believes, uncertainty regarding the resolution of the consent decree which limited the company's ability to renegotiate and bid on certain customer contracts and otherwise led to a decline in customer orders. The negative effect of the consent decree on customer orders and net sales has been considerable, and the company expects to experience further declines in net sales as a result of the limitations imposed by the consent decree. The company expects to continue to experience decreased net sales in the segment at least until it has successfully completed the previously-described third-party expert certification audit and FDA inspection and has received written notification from the FDA that the company may resume full operations at the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities. Even after the company is permitted to resume full operations at the affected facilities, it is uncertain as to whether, or how quickly, the company will be able to rebuild net sales to more typical historical levels, irrespective of market conditions. Accordingly, the limitations in the consent decree had, and likely will continue to have, a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
In the second quarter of 2013, the company recorded a warranty reserve of $3,800,000 related to a power wheelchair component performance issue. This estimate was calculated based on discussions with the FDA and the company's resultant expectation that an end user notification will not be adequate, and that a recall is probable which would involve the repair or replacement of the potentially affected components, which are sold globally. The power wheelchair component performance issue relates to an anomaly discovered in a fraction of a percentage of the components in the field. The company's warranty reserve for this power wheelchair component performance issue is based upon the company's actual experience with repairs and replacements in prior recalls. Any warranty reserve recorded related to this issue would be subject to adjustment as new developments or experiences change the company's estimate of the total cost of this matter. The company expects to work closely with the FDA to finalize its action plan related to the power wheelchair performance issue.
For additional information regarding the consent decree, please see the following sections of the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2012: Item 1. Business - Government Regulation and Item 1A. Risk Factors and the following sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q: Item 1. Legal Proceedings; and Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Outlook and - Liquidity and Capital Resources.
In addition, in December 2010, the company received a warning letter from the FDA related to quality system processes and procedures at the company's Sanford, Florida facility. The company has taken actions which it believes address all of the FDA's concerns in the warning letter. However, the results of regulatory claims, proceedings, investigations, or litigation are difficult to predict. An unfavorable resolution or outcome of the FDA warning letter could materially and adversely affect the company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Any of the above contingencies could have an adverse impact on the company's financial condition or results of operations.

Subsequent Event
On August 7, 2013, the company sold Champion Manufacturing Inc. (Champion), its domestic medical recliner business for dialysis clinics, to Champion Equity Holdings, LLC for approximately $45,000,000 in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. This divestiture is consistent with the company's focus on its globalization strategy to harmonize core global product lines and reduce complexity within its business.
Subject to certain post-closing adjustments and any restructuring charges, the company preliminarily estimates that it will realize net proceeds from the sale of the Champion business of approximately $43,000,000, net of tax and expenses. The company will use the net proceeds to reduce debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility.
Supplemental Guarantor Information
Effective February 12, 2007, substantially all of the domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) of the company became guarantors of the indebtedness of Invacare Corporation under its 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027 (the “Debentures”) with an original aggregate principal amount of $135,000,000. The majority of the company’s subsidiaries are not guaranteeing the indebtedness of the Debentures (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries has fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, to pay principal, premium, and interest related to the Debentures and each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are directly or indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries of the company.
Presented below are the consolidating condensed financial statements of Invacare Corporation (Parent), its combined Guarantor Subsidiaries and combined Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries with their investments in subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method. The company does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to investors and accordingly, separate financial statements and other disclosures related to the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Continuing Operations.
OUTLOOK
The company continues to make significant progress on the three third-party certification audits that must be completed and submitted to the FDA for review and acceptance. Upon the FDA's acceptance of the three reports, the FDA will conduct its own inspection of the facilities before the company may resume full operations at our Taylor Street facility. The company now has the FDA's acceptance of two of the three third-party certification reports. The July 15, 2013, acceptance of the second third-party certification report gives the company the ability to resume new product development on critical projects. Now the company's primary focus is on working with the expert auditor to ensure the company is meeting the FDA's Quality System Regulation in the final most comprehensive audit. The company has made significant investments to ensure it has a comprehensive and sustainable compliance environment, and the verification of the expert auditor combined with the FDA's acceptance of the first two certification reports confirm that the company is on the right track. Nevertheless, the company's financial results continue to be significantly impacted by the consent decree, which limits the company's ability to manufacture high-margin, custom power wheelchair products at its Taylor Street facility in Elyria, Ohio, and ongoing costs related to improvements to its quality system.
The company is sustaining resources to ensure it is equipped to clear the final third-party certification audit and is prepared to hit the ground running when the company resumes full operations at the Taylor Street facility. At the same time, the company is closely managing costs in light of its current financial results. For example, in the last six months, the company has had a net reduction, excluding the sale of ISG, of approximately 300 associates, primarily in operations. In addition, the company will advance some of the restructuring initiatives included in its globalization strategy to reduce complexity within the business and focus on its core medical equipment product lines. This includes actively reviewing the possible divestiture or closure of subsidiaries that are outside the company's core equipment business. Cost reduction initiatives also are ongoing, including general expense reduction, project delays and infrastructure consolidation. The company also is closely monitoring the roll-out of National Competitive Bidding in the United States, which was effective in 91 metropolitan statistical areas on July 1, 2013, to determine the impact on its customers in the domestic home medical equipment business.
STATUS OF THE CONSENT DECREE
In order to resume full operations at the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities in Elyria, Ohio, the consent decree requires that three certification audits must be completed by a third-party expert whose reports are then submitted to the FDA for review and acceptance. The third-party expert is required by the terms of the consent decree to be qualified by education, training and experience to conduct such inspections and must be without any personal or financial ties to the company. The company has received the FDA's acceptance of two of the three certification audits.
| |
• | On May 13, 2013, the company announced that the FDA accepted the company's first certification report. As a result, the company was able to resume manufacturing parts and components at the Taylor Street facility that are used to manufacture products at other company facilities. |
| |
• | On July 16, 2013, the company announced that the FDA accepted the company's second certification report relating to design control systems at the company's Corporate and Taylor Street facilities. This acceptance permits the company to resume design activities for power wheelchairs and power beds. |
| |
• | The final and most comprehensive third-party certification audit is a thorough review of the company's compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulation at the impacted Elyria facilities. In light of the scope and complexity of the audit, the company now expects the third-party certification report to be completed and filed with the FDA by mid-November 2013. |
When the final third-party certification report is accepted by the FDA, the agency will conduct its own inspection of the impacted facilities. Following successful completion of the FDA inspection and the company's receipt of written notification from the FDA that the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities appear to be in compliance, the company may resume full operations at those facilities.
As the company receives FDA approval on the third certification audit, it will provide timely disclosure to its shareholders. The company also intends to give an update in its next quarterly earnings release. See the “Contingencies” note to the financial statements contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and “Forward-Looking Statements” contained below in this Item.
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
On January 18, 2013, the company completed the sale of Invacare Supply Group (ISG), its domestic medical supplies business. Accordingly, the financial information for all periods excludes the impact of the discontinued operations except for cash flow information which includes the results and impact of the sale of ISG. For more information, see the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In the second quarter of 2013, the company recorded a warranty reserve of $3,800,000 related to a power wheelchair component performance issue. This estimate was calculated based on discussions with the FDA and the company's resultant expectation that an end user notification will not be adequate, and that a recall is probable which would involve the repair or replacement of the potentially affected components, which are sold globally. The power wheelchair component performance issue relates to an anomaly discovered in a fraction of a percentage of the components in the field. The company's warranty reserve for this power wheelchair component performance issue is based upon the company's actual experience with repairs and replacements in prior recalls. Any warranty reserve recorded related to this issue would be subject to adjustment as new developments or experiences change the company's estimate of the total cost of this matter. The company expects to work closely with the FDA to finalize its action plan related to the power wheelchair performance issue.
On August 7, 2013, the company sold Champion Manufacturing Inc. (Champion), its domestic medical recliner business for dialysis clinics, to Champion Equity Holdings, LLC for approximately $45,000,000 in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. This divestiture is consistent with the company's focus on its globalization strategy to harmonize core global product lines and reduce complexity within its business. Subject to certain post-closing adjustments and any restructuring charges, the company preliminarily estimates that it will realize net proceeds from the sale of the Champion business of approximately $43,000,000, net of tax and expenses. The company will use the net proceeds to reduce debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility.
Net Sales. Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 decreased 5.6% to $351,796,000 versus $372,719,000 for the same period last year. Foreign currency translation decreased net sales by 0.2 of a percentage point. Organic net sales for the quarter decreased by 5.4% over the same period a year ago as increases in Europe were more than offset by declines in all other segments. The largest decline in net sales was in the North America/Home Medical Equipment (HME) segment, primarily in mobility and seating products, principally due to the reduced order volume at the company's Taylor Street manufacturing facility resulting from the FDA consent decree. The Company estimates that sales of products manufactured at the Taylor Street facility, which includes some products sold outside of the North America/HME segment, were approximately $14.7 million in the second quarter compared to approximately $39.2 million in the second quarter of last year.
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2013 decreased 5.3% to $689,412,000 versus $727,819,000 for the same period last year. Foreign currency translation increased net sales by 0.2 of a percentage point. Organic net sales for the first six months of 2013 decreased 5.5% over the same period last year as increases in Europe were more than offset by declines in all other segments. The largest decline in net sales was in the North America/HME segment, primarily in mobility and seating products, principally due to the reduced order volume at the Company's Taylor Street manufacturing facility resulting from the FDA consent decree. The Company estimates that sales of products manufactured from the Taylor Street facility, which includes some products sold outside of the North America/HME segment, were approximately $31.7 million in the first half of the year compared to approximately $76.7 million in the first half of last year.
North America/Home Medical Equipment (HME)
North America/HME net sales decreased 11.6% for the quarter to $159,491,000 as compared to $180,365,000 for the same period a year ago with foreign currency translation decreasing net sales by 0.1 of a percentage point. The organic net sales decrease of 11.5% was primarily driven by declines in mobility and seating and lifestyle products. This decrease was partially offset by increased net sales in respiratory products, partially driven by a large order of Invacare® HomeFill® oxygen systems by a large national account. The sales decline in mobility and seating products, for the quarter and first six months of 2013, was primarily driven by the impact of the consent decree with the FDA, which limits production of custom power wheelchairs and seating systems at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility. While the Company saw an increase in the number of approved verifications of medical necessity (VMN) for products from the Taylor Street facility compared to the first quarter of 2013, the number of new orders that were fulfilled in the second quarter of 2013 represented only 10.8% of the company's unit volume of domestic power wheelchair shipments from the facility in the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, net sales decreased by 12.6% to $311,648,000 as compared to $356,484,000 for the same period a year ago with foreign currency translation decreasing net sales by 0.1 of a percentage point. The organic net sales decrease of 12.5% was primarily driven by declines in mobility and
seating and lifestyle products, partially offset by increased net sales in respiratory products. The company has provided extended payment terms to certain customers where the volume of business justifies the extended terms.
Institutional Products Group (IPG)
IPG net sales for the quarter decreased 2.2% to $36,700,000 compared to $37,519,000 for the same period last year as foreign currency decreased net sales by 0.1 of a percentage point. Organic net sales decreased by 2.1%. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, IPG net sales decreased by 2.5% to $71,828,000 compared to $73,657,000 during the same period last year as foreign currency decreased net sales by 0.1 of a percentage point. Organic net sales decreased 2.4%. IPG net sales decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, driven primarily by declines in beds, partially offset by increases in medical recliners sold into dialysis clinics and interior design projects for long-term care facilities.
Europe
For the quarter, European net sales increased 5.2% to $141,751,000 versus $134,713,000 for the second quarter last year with foreign currency translation decreasing net sales by 0.6 of a percentage point. The organic net sales increase of 5.8% was primarily related to increases in net sales of lifestyle and mobility and seating products, which were partially offset by declines in respiratory products. For the first half of the year, European net sales increased 7.4% to $279,385,000 versus $260,016,000 for the first half of last year as foreign currency translation increased net sales by 0.6 of a percentage point. Organic net sales increased by 6.8% due to increases in net sales of lifestyle, mobility and seating, and respiratory products.
Asia/Pacific
Asia/Pacific net sales decreased 31.1% for the quarter to $13,854,000 as compared to $20,122,000 for the same period a year ago. Organic net sales decreased 31.7% as foreign currency translation increased net sales by 0.6 of a percentage point. Asia/Pacific net sales decreased 29.5% to $26,551,000 versus $37,662,000 for the first half of last year as foreign currency translation increased net sales by 0.4 of a percentage point. Organic net sales decreased by 29.9%. Net sales declined for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as the Company's Australian distribution business experienced declines in mobility and seating and lifestyle products and the Company's subsidiary which produces microprocessor controllers recognized reduced sales of controllers and decreased contract manufacturing business with companies outside of the healthcare industry.
Gross Profit. Consolidated gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was 27.3% and 27.8%, respectively, compared to 31.1% and 31.1%, respectively, in the same periods last year. The margin was negatively impacted principally by the North America/HME sales decline in custom power wheelchairs, which is one of the Company's higher margin product lines as well as an increase in warranty expense for a power wheelchair component issue, which principally impacted the Asia/Pacific segment. In addition, the negative impact on order volume through the Taylor Street manufacturing facility caused an unfavorable absorption of fixed costs for this facility. Gross margin also was negatively impacted by sales mix favoring lower margin products and lower margin customers.
For the first half of the year, North America/HME gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased by 6.2 percentage points compared to the same period last year. The decline in margins was primarily as a result of volume declines, unfavorable sales mix favoring lower margin customers and lower margin products and unfavorable absorption of fixed costs at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility as a result of volume declines in mobility and seating products. While warranty expense for the first six months of 2013 is favorable to the same period in 2012, North America/HME incurred a charge of approximately $400,000 related to anticipated warranty expense related to a power wheelchair performance issue, which was partially offset by the reversal of accrued warranty expense related to the closure of other field actions. The company expects to work closely with the FDA to finalize its action plan related to the power wheelchair performance issue.
For the first half of the year, IPG gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 0.7 of a percentage point compared to the same period last year. The decline in margin is primarily attributable to volume declines and increased research and development expenses.
For the first half of the year, gross profit in Europe as a percentage of net sales was flat compared to the same period last year. Gross profit was favorably impacted by volume increases, which were offset by an unfavorable sales mix favoring lower margin product lines and lower margin customers.
For the first half of the year, gross profit in Asia/Pacific as a percentage of net sales decreased by 9.8 percentage points compared to the same period last year. The decline was due to an increase in warranty expense of approximately $3,400,000 as the result of a power wheelchair component issue. Excluding the warranty expense increase, gross profit increased by 3.1 percentage
points compared to the same period last year primarily as a result of restructuring activities in the Australian business implemented in the fourth quarter of last year partially offset by significant volume declines and unfavorable product mix at the company's subsidiary which produces microprocessor controllers.
Selling, General and Administrative. Consolidated selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was 29.8% and 30.3%, respectively, compared to 28.0% and 28.2%, respectively, for the same period a year ago. The increase was $468,000 or 0.4% for the quarter and $3,774,000 or 1.8% for the first half of the year compared to the same periods a year ago. Foreign currency translation decreased expenses by $318,000 in the quarter while increasing expenses by $176,000 for the first half of the year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, SG&A expenses increased 0.8% for the quarter and by 1.8% for the first half of the year compared to the same period a year ago. The dollar increase, excluding foreign currency translation, was $786,000 for the quarter and $3,598,000 for the first half of the year compared to the same period a year ago. The SG&A expense increase for the quarter and first half of the year primarily related to increased associate costs and increased amortization expense. Amortization expense increased $1,216,000 as a result of the write-off of bank fees, previously capitalized, related to the amendment for the Company's credit facility finalized during the quarter which reduced the capacity on the facility from $400,000,000 to $250,000,000 effective May 30, 2013. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and the write-off of bank fees, SG&A expense decreased by $428,000 or 0.4 of a percentage point for the quarter and increased by $2,384,000 or 1.2% for the year.
SG&A expenses for North America/HME increased 0.9% or $492,000 for the quarter and increased 2.5% or $2,566,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period a year ago. Foreign currency translation decreased SG&A expenses by $81,000 or 0.2 of a percentage point for the quarter and decreased SG&A expenses by $114,000 or 0.1 of a percentage point for the first half of the year. Excluding the foreign currency translation, SG&A expenses increased $573,000 or 1.1 percentage points for the quarter and increased $2,680,000 or 2.6 percentage points. The expense increase for both the quarter and first half of the year was principally due to increased associate costs primarily related to quality systems improvements and increased amortization expense.
SG&A expenses for IPG increased by 12.3% or $1,356,000 for the quarter and increased by 7.0% or $1,579,000 compared to the same periods a year ago. Foreign currency translation did not have a material impact for the quarter or first half of the year. The SG&A expense increase for the quarter and year to date was primarily attributable to increased associate costs.
European SG&A expenses increased by 3.6% or $1,130,000 for the quarter and increased by 7.1% or $4,436,000 compared to the same periods a year ago. Foreign currency translation decreased SG&A expenses by approximately $286,000 or 0.9 of a percentage point for the quarter and increased SG&A expenses by approximately $240,000 or 0.3 of a percentage point for the first half of the year. Excluding the foreign currency translation impact, SG&A expenses increased by $1,416,000 or 4.5% for the quarter and increased by $4,196,000 or 6.8% primarily due to increased associate costs. For the first half of the year, foreign currency transactions were unfavorable.
Asia/Pacific SG&A expenses decreased 30.3% or $2,510,000 and for the quarter and decreased 29.4% or $4,807,000 for the first half of the year as compared to the same periods a year ago. Foreign currency translation had no material impact for the quarter or first half of the year. SG&A expenses decreased for the quarter and year to date principally as a result of reduced personnel costs resulting from restructuring activities in 2012.
Charge Related to Restructuring Activities. Restructuring continued during the quarter resulting in restructuring charges of $2,592,000 and $5,114,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, principally for severance in NA/HME and Asia/Pacific as a result of the permanent elimination of certain positions. The majority of the outstanding restructuring accruals at June 30, 2013 are expected to be paid out within the next twelve months.
Interest. Interest expense decreased to $1,024,000 and $2,351,000 for the second quarter and first half of 2013 compared to $2,299,000 and $4,650,000 for the same period a year ago, representing a 55.5% and 49.4% decrease, respectively. This decline is primarily attributable to reduced debt levels and lower borrowing costs in 2013 as compared to 2012. Interest income decreased due to a reduction in the volume of financing provided to customers to $74,000 and $181,000 for the second quarter and first half of 2013, respectively, compared to $143,000 and $444,000 for the comparable periods in 2012.
Income Taxes. The company had an effective tax rate of 85.9% and 13.1% on losses before tax from continuing operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively, compared to an expected benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was greater than the U.S. federal statutory rate, principally due to losses overseas without tax benefit due to valuation allowances and an adjustment to the intraperiod tax allocation due to the impact of a discrete tax expense related to dividends for earnings previously deemed permanently reinvested overseas received in the U.S. during the second quarter of $9,702,000 ($0.30 per share). The rate was benefited by taxes outside
the United States, excluding countries with valuation allowances that are in losses in 2013, recorded at a lower effective rate than the U.S. statutory rate. The company had an effective tax rate of 162.9% and 90.8% on earnings before tax from continuing operation for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to an expected rate at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was greater than the U.S. federal statutory rate, principally due to a foreign discrete tax adjustment of $9,010,000 ($0.28 per share), recorded in the second quarter of 2012, of which $3,014,000 was interest, related to prior year periods under audit, which is being contested by the company. This adjustment was partially offset by foreign earnings taxed at an effective rate lower than the U.S. statutory rate principally due to foreign taxes recognized at rates below the U.S. statutory rate.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The company continues to maintain an adequate liquidity position through its unused bank lines of credit (see Long-Term Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report) and working capital management.
The company's total debt outstanding, inclusive of the debt discount included in equity in accordance with FSB APB 14-1, decreased by $120,057,000 to $118,086,000 at June 30, 2013 from $238,143,000 as of December 31, 2012. The company's balance sheet reflects the impact of ASC 470-20, which reduced debt and increased equity by $3,034,000 and $3,341,000 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The debt decrease during the first six months was a result of using the proceeds from the sale of Invacare Supply Group in the first quarter to reduce debt outstanding under the company's revolving credit facility. The company's cash and cash equivalents were $21,447,000 at June 30, 2013, down from $38,791,000 as of December 31, 2012. At June 30, 2013, the company had outstanding $97,959,000 on its revolving credit facility versus $217,494,000 as of December 31, 2012.
The company's borrowing capacity and cash on hand were utilized for normal operations during the period ended June 30, 2013. Debt repurchases, acquisitions, divestitures, the timing of vendor payments, the granting of extended payment terms to significant national accounts and other activity can have a significant impact on the company's cash flow and borrowings outstanding such that the debt reported at the end of a given period may be materially different than debt levels during a given period. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the outstanding borrowings on the company's revolving credit facility varied from a low of $82,400,000 to a high of $267,900,000. While the company has cash balances in various jurisdictions around the world, there are no material restrictions under the credit facility regarding the use of such cash for dividends within the company, loans or other purposes.
On May 30, 2013, the company entered into a Fourth Amendment ("the Amendment") to its Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amendment, the Credit Agreement was amended to, for the following: (i) decrease the aggregate principal amount of the revolving credit facility to $250,000,000 from $400,000,000, and limit the Company's borrowings under the revolving credit facility to an amount not to exceed $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount through December 31, 2013; (ii) increase the maximum leverage ratio (consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended) to 4.00 to 1.00 from 3.50 to 1.00 until January 1, 2014, when the maximum leverage ratio will revert back to 3.50 to 1.00; (iii) decrease the minimum interest coverage ratio (consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest charges, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended) to 3.00 to 1.00 from 3.50 to 1.00 until January 1, 2014, when the minimum interest coverage ratio will revert back to 3.50 to 1.00; (iv) in calculating consolidated EBITDA for purposes of determining the ratios, provide for the add back to consolidated EBITDA of up to an additional $15,000,000 for future one-time cash restructuring charges and (v) provide for an increase of (A) 25 basis points in the margin applicable to determining the interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and letter of credit fees and (B) 10 basis points in the commitment fee, all during periods when the leverage ratio exceeds 3.50 to 1.00. As a result, the company incurred $436,000 in fees which were capitalized and are being amortized through October, 2015. In addition, as a result of reducing the capacity of the facility from $400,000,000 to $250,000,000, the company wrote-off $1,216,000 in fees previously capitalized, which is reflected in the expense of the North America / HME segment.
The company's senior secured revolving credit agreement, as amended, (the “Credit Agreement”) provides for a $250,000,000 senior secured revolving credit facility maturing in October 2015. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the company may from time to time borrow, repay and re-borrow up to an aggregate outstanding amount at any one time of $200,000,000 through December 31, 2013 and $250,000,000 thereafter, subject to customary conditions. The Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of swing line loans. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the company's election, at (i) the London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin; or (ii) a Base Rate Option plus a margin. The applicable margin is currently 2.0% per annum for LIBOR loans and 1.00% for the Base Rate Option loans based on the company's leverage ratio. In addition to interest, the company is required to pay commitment fees on the unused portion of the Credit Agreement. The commitment fee rate is currently 0.30% per annum. Like the interest rate spreads, the commitment fee is subject to adjustment based on the company's leverage ratio. The amendment to the Credit Agreement provided for an increase of (A) 25 basis points
in the margin applicable to determining the interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and letter of credit fees and (B) 10 basis points in the commitment fee, all during periods when the company's leverage ratio exceeds 3.50 to 1.00. The obligations of the borrowers under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the company's U.S. assets and are guaranteed by substantially all of the company's material domestic and foreign subsidiaries.
The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that are customary for similar credit arrangements, including covenants relating to, among other things, financial reporting and notification, compliance with laws, preservation of existence, maintenance of books and records, use of proceeds, maintenance of properties and insurance, and limitations on liens, dispositions, issuance of debt, investments, payment of dividends, repurchases of capital stock, acquisitions, transactions with affiliates, and capital expenditures. There also are financial covenants that currently require the company to maintain a maximum leverage ratio (consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no greater than 4.0 to 1 until January 1, 2014, when the maximum leverage ratio will revert back to 3.5 to 1, and a minimum interest coverage ratio (consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest charges, each as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no less than 3.0 to 1 until January 1, 2014, when the minimum interest coverage ratio will revert back to 3.5 to 1. In calculating the ratios under the original Credit Agreement, the company could exclude up to $15,000,000 of cash restructuring charges from the calculation of EBITDA over the life of the agreement, and the company reached that maximum amount in the fourth quarter of 2012. However, the amended Credit Agreement provides for the exclusion of up to an additional $15,000,000 of future one-time cash restructuring charges from the calculation of EBITDA over the remaining life of the agreement. As of June 30, 2013, the company's leverage ratio was 2.83 and the company's interest coverage ratio was 10.79 compared to a leverage ratio of 2.66 and an interest coverage ratio of 19.00 as of December 31, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, the company was in compliance with all covenant requirements and under the most restrictive covenant of the company's borrowing arrangements, the company had the capacity to borrow up to an additional $50,759,000.
The company's Credit Agreement, as well as cash flows from operations, has been a principal source of financing for much of its liquidity needs. If the company were unsuccessful in meeting its leverage or interest coverage ratio, or other, financial or operating covenants in its credit facility, it would result in a default, which could trigger acceleration of, or the right to accelerate, the related debt. Because of cross-default provisions in the agreements and instruments governing certain of the company's indebtedness, a default under the credit facility could result in a default under, and the acceleration of, certain other company indebtedness. In addition, the company's lenders would be entitled to proceed against the collateral securing the indebtedness.
During the first quarter of 2013, the company completed the sale of its ISG business for net proceeds of approximately $144,681,000, which were used to repay amounts outstanding under the credit facility and other current payables and thereby improve the company's leverage ratio. In addition, on August 7, 2013, the company sold Champion Manufacturing Inc. (Champion), its domestic medical recliner business for dialysis clinics, to Champion Equity Holdings, LLC for approximately $45,000,000 in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. This divestiture is consistent with the company's focus on its globalization strategy to harmonize core global product lines and reduce complexity within its business. Subject to certain post-closing adjustments and any restructuring charges, the company preliminarily estimates that it will realize net proceeds from the sale of the Champion business of approximately $43,000,000, net of tax and expenses. The company will use the net proceeds to reduce debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility.
Based on the company's current expectations, the company believes that its cash balances and available borrowing capacity under its senior credit facility should be sufficient to meet working capital needs, capital requirements, and commitments for at least the next twelve months. However, the company's ability to satisfy its liquidity needs will depend on many factors, including the operating performance of the business, the company's ability to successfully complete in a timely manner the third-party expert certification audit and FDA inspection contemplated under the consent decree and receipt of the written notification from the FDA permitting the company to resume full operations, as well as the company's continued compliance with the covenants under its credit facility. Notwithstanding the company's expectations, if the company's operating results decline substantially more than it currently anticipates, or if the company is unable to successfully complete the consent decree-related third-party expert certification audit and FDA inspection within the currently estimated time frame (including as a result of any need to complete significant additional remediation arising from the third-party expert certification audits of the FDA inspection), the company may be unable to comply with the financial covenants, and its lenders could demand repayment of the amounts outstanding under the company's credit facility.
As a result, continued compliance with, in particular, the leverage covenant under the company's credit facility remains a high priority, which means the company has remained focused on generating sufficient cash and managing its expenditures. The company also may examine alternatives such as raising additional capital through permitted asset sales. In addition, if necessary or advisable, the company may seek to amend or renegotiate its credit facility in order to remain in compliance. The company can make no assurances that under such circumstances its financing arrangements could be renegotiated, or that alternative financing would be available on terms acceptable to the company, if at all.
The company may from time to time seek to retire or purchase its 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such purchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, the company's liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. At June 30, 2013, the company had $13,350,000 aggregate principal amount outstanding of its Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures.
While there is general concern about the potential for rising interest rates, the company believes that its exposure to interest rate fluctuations is manageable given that portions of the company's debt are at fixed rates into 2014, the company has the ability to utilize swaps to exchange variable rate debt for fixed rate debt, if needed, and the company expects that it will be able to absorb any modest rate increases in the months ahead without any material impact on its liquidity or capital resources. The company is a party to interest rate swap agreements to effectively convert a portion of floating rate revolving credit facility debt to fixed rate debt to avoid the risk of changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2013, interest associated with $34,000,000 of the outstanding revolver balance of $97,959,000 was fixed via interest rate swap agreements. Specifically, interest rate swap agreements for notional amounts of $22,000,000 through September 2013 and $12,000,000 through April 2014 were entered into that fix the LIBOR component of the interest rate on that portion of the revolving credit facility debt at rates of 0.46% and 0.54%, respectively, for effective aggregate rates of 2.46% and 2.54%, respectively. As of June 30, 2013, the weighted average floating interest rate on borrowings was 2.14% compared to 2.21% as of December 31, 2012.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
There are no individually material capital expenditure commitments outstanding as of June 30, 2013. The company estimates that capital investments for 2013 could approximate between $15,000,000 and $20,000,000, compared to actual capital expenditures of $20,091,000 in 2012. The company believes that its balances of cash and cash equivalents, together with funds generated from operations and existing borrowing facilities, will be sufficient to meet its operating cash requirements and fund required capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
CASH FLOWS
Cash flows used by operating activities were $29,964,000 in for the first six months of 2013, compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $7,748,000 in the first six months of 2012. The decline in operating cash flows in 2013 was primarily attributable to reduced net earnings, increased accounts receivable and a reduction in accounts payable, principally due to accelerated payments associated with the sale of ISG. In addition, operating cash flows were also negatively impacted by payments of $3,225,000 for expenses as a result of the sale of ISG.
Cash flows provided by investing activities were $136,572,000 for the first six months of 2013, compared to cash used of $10,160,000 in the first six months of 2012. The significant change in investing cash flow was primarily attributable to the receipt of $144,681,000 in net proceeds resulting from the sale of ISG.
Cash flows used by financing activities were $123,355,000 in the first six months of 2013 compared to cash flow used of $6,314,000 in the first six months of 2012. Cash flows used in the first six months of 2013 reflect the net pay down in debt as the majority of the proceeds from the sale of ISG were used to pay down debt in the first quarter of 2013.
During the first six months of 2013, the company used free cash flow of $33,117,000 compared to generated free cash flow of $2,312,000 in the first six months of 2012. The decrease in free cash flow is due primarily to reduced net earnings and an increase in net working capital as described above. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is comprised of net cash provided by operating activities, excluding net cash flow impact related to restructuring activities, less net purchases of property and equipment, net of proceeds from sales of property and equipment. Management believes that this financial measure provides meaningful information for evaluating the overall financial performance of the company and its ability to repay debt or make future investments (including acquisitions, etc.).
The non-GAAP financial measure is reconciled to the GAAP measure as follows (in thousands):

DIVIDEND POLICY
On May 16, 2013, the company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0125 per Common Share to shareholders of record as of July 5, 2013, which was paid on July 15, 2013. At the current rate, the cash dividend will amount to $0.05 per Common Share on an annual basis.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The Consolidated Financial Statements included in the report include accounts of the company and all majority-owned subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related footnotes. In preparing the financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.
The following critical accounting policies, among others, affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of the company’s consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The company’s revenues are recognized when products are shipped or services provided to unaffiliated customers. Revenue Recognition, ASC 605, provides guidance on the application of generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. The company has concluded that its revenue recognition policy is appropriate and in accordance with GAAP and ASC 605. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.
Sales are made only to customers with whom the company believes collection is reasonably assured based upon a credit analysis, which may include obtaining a credit application, a signed security agreement, personal guarantee and/or a cross corporate guarantee depending on the credit history of the customer. Credit lines are established for new customers after an evaluation of their credit report and/or other relevant financial information. Existing credit lines are regularly reviewed and adjusted with consideration given to any outstanding past due amounts.
The company offers discounts and rebates, which are accounted for as reductions to revenue in the period in which the sale is recognized. Discounts offered include: cash discounts for prompt payment, base and trade discounts based on contract level for specific classes of customers. Volume discounts and rebates are given based on large purchases and the achievement of certain sales volumes. Product returns are accounted for as a reduction to reported sales with estimates recorded for anticipated returns at the time of sale. The company does not ship any goods on consignment.
Distributed products sold by the company are accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition guidance in ASC 605-45-05. The company records distributed product sales gross as a principal since the company takes title to the products and has the risks of loss for collections, delivery and returns.
Product sales that give rise to installment receivables are recorded at the time of sale when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Interest income is recognized on installment agreements in accordance with the terms of the agreements. Installment accounts are monitored and if a customer defaults on payments, interest income is no longer recognized. All installment accounts are accounted for using the same methodology, regardless of duration of the installment agreements.
Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Receivable
The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts is based primarily on management's evaluation of the financial condition of the customer. In addition, as a result of the third party financing arrangement, management monitors the collection status of these contracts in accordance with the company's limited recourse obligations and provides amounts necessary for estimated losses in the allowance for doubtful accounts and establishing reserves for specific customers as needed.
The company continues to closely monitor the credit-worthiness of its customers and adhere to tight credit policies. In 2013, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced new Medicare prices which became effective in July 2013 for the second round of the National Competitive Bidding program, which was expanded to include 91 metropolitan statistical areas. The company believes the changes announced could have a significant impact on the collectability of accounts receivable for those customers which are in the MSA locations impacted and which have a portion of their revenues tied to Medicare reimbursement. As a result, this is an additional risk factor which the company considers when assessing the collectability of accounts receivable.
The company has an agreement with DLL, a third party financing company, to provide the majority of future lease financing to the company's North America customers. The DLL agreement provides for direct leasing between DLL and the Invacare customer. The company retains a recourse obligation for events of default under the contracts. The company monitors the collections status of these contracts and has provided amounts for estimated losses in its allowances for doubtful accounts.
Inventories and Related Allowance for Obsolete and Excess Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories have been reduced by an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories. The estimated allowance is based on management’s review of inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. A provision for excess and obsolete inventory is recorded as needed based upon the discontinuation of products, redesigning of existing products, new product introductions, market changes and safety issues. Both raw materials and finished goods are reserved for on the balance sheet.
In general, the company reviews inventory turns as an indicator of obsolescence or slow moving product as well as the impact of new product introductions. Depending on the situation, the company may partially or fully reserve for the individual item. The company continues to increase its overseas sourcing efforts, increase its emphasis on the development and introduction of new products, and decrease the cycle time to bring new product offerings to market. These initiatives are sources of inventory obsolescence for both raw material and finished goods.
Goodwill, Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets
Property, equipment, intangibles and certain other long-lived assets are amortized over their useful lives. Useful lives are based on management's estimates of the period that the assets will generate revenue. Under Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, ASC 350, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are subject to annual impairment tests. The company's measurement date for its annual goodwill impairment test is October 1. Furthermore, goodwill and other long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The majority of the company's goodwill and intangible assets relate to the company's Europe and IPG segments which have continued to be profitable.
To review goodwill for impairment in accordance with ASC 350, the company first estimates the fair value of each reporting unit and compares the calculated fair value to the carrying value of the each reporting unit. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below. The company has determined that its reporting units are the same as its operating segments. The company completes its annual impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each year. To estimate the fair values of the reporting units, the company utilizes a discounted cash flow method (DCF) in which the company forecasts income statement and balance sheet amounts based on assumptions regarding future sales growth, profitability, inventory turns, days' sales outstanding, etc. to forecast future cash flows. The cash flows are discounted using a weighted average cost of capital discount rate where the cost of debt is based on quoted rates for 20-year debt of companies of similar credit risk and the cost of equity is based upon the 20-year treasury rate for the risk free rate, a market risk premium, the industry average beta and a small cap stock adjustment. The discount rates used have a significant impact upon the discounted cash flow methodology utilized in the company's annual impairment testing as higher discount rates decrease the fair value estimates. The assumptions used are based on a market participant's point of view and yielded a discount rate of 9.88% in 2012 for the company's annual impairment analysis compared to 9.27% in 2011.
The company also utilizes an EV (Enterprise Value) to EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) Method to compute the fair value of its reporting units which considers potential acquirers and their EV to EBITDA
multiples adjusted by an estimated premium. While more weight is given to the discounted cash flow method, the EV to EBITDA method does provide corroborative evidence of the reasonableness of the discounted cash flow method results.
A future potential impairment is possible, for each or any of the company's segments, should actual results differ materially from forecasted results used in the valuation analysis. Furthermore, the company's annual valuation of goodwill can differ materially if the market inputs used to determine the discount rate change significantly. For instance, higher interest rates or greater stock price volatility would increase the discount rate and thus increase the chance of impairment. In consideration of this potential, the company reviewed the results if the discount rate used were 100 basis points higher for the 2012 impairment analysis and determined that there still would not be any indicator of potential impairment for the Europe or IPG segments.
The company's intangible assets consist of intangible assets with defined lives as well as intangible assets with indefinite lives. Defined-lived intangible assets consist principally of customer lists, developed technology, license agreements, patents and other miscellaneous intangibles such as non-compete agreements. The company's indefinite lived intangible assets consist entirely of trademarks.
The company evaluates the carrying value of definite-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate possible impairment. Definite-lived assets are determined to be impaired if the future un-discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset are less than the carrying value. Actual impairment amounts for definite-lived assets are then calculated using a discounted cash flow calculation. The company reviews indefinite-lived assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or circumstances indicate possible impairment. Any impairment amounts for indefinite-lived assets are calculated as the difference between the future discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset less than the carrying value for the asset.
Product Liability
The company’s captive insurance company, Invatection Insurance Co., currently has a policy year that runs from September 1 to August 31 and insures annual policy losses of $10,000,000 per occurrence and $13,000,000 in the aggregate of the company’s North American product liability exposure. The company also has additional layers of external insurance coverage insuring up to $75,000,000 in aggregate losses per policy year arising from individual claims anywhere in the world that exceed the captive insurance company policy limits or the limits of the company’s per country foreign liability limits, as applicable. There can be no assurance that the company’s current insurance levels will continue to be adequate or available at affordable rates.
Product liability reserves are recorded for individual claims based upon historical experience, industry expertise and indications from the third-party actuary. Additional reserves, in excess of the specific individual case reserves, are provided for incurred but not reported claims based upon third-party actuarial valuations at the time such valuations are conducted. Historical claims experience and other assumptions are taken into consideration by the third-party actuary to estimate the ultimate reserves. For example, the actuarial analysis assumes that historical loss experience is an indicator of future experience, that the distribution of exposures by geographic area and nature of operations for ongoing operations is expected to be very similar to historical operations with no dramatic changes and that the government indices used to trend losses and exposures are appropriate.
Estimates made are adjusted on a regular basis and can be impacted by actual loss awards and settlements on claims. While actuarial analysis is used to help determine adequate reserves, the company is responsible for the determination and recording of adequate reserves in accordance with accepted loss reserving standards and practices.
Warranty
Generally, the company’s products are covered from the date of sale to the customer by warranties against defects in material and workmanship for various periods depending on the product. Certain components carry a lifetime warranty. A provision for estimated warranty cost is recorded at the time of sale based upon actual experience. The company continuously assesses the adequacy of its product warranty accrual and makes adjustments as needed. Historical analysis is primarily used to determine the company’s warranty reserves. Claims history is reviewed and provisions are adjusted as needed. However, the company does consider other events, such as a product recall, which could warrant additional warranty reserve provision. See Warranty Costs in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report for a reconciliation of the changes in the warranty accrual.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
The company accounts for share based compensation under the provisions of Compensation—Stock Compensation, ASC 718. The company has not made any modifications to the terms of any previously granted options and no changes have been made
regarding the valuation methodologies or assumptions used to determine the fair value of options granted and the company continues to use a Black-Scholes valuation model. As of June 30, 2013, there was $15,825,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost from stock-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2003 Performance Plan, which is related to non-vested options and shares, and includes $4,722,000 related to restricted stock awards. The company expects the compensation expense to be recognized over a four-year period for a weighted-average period of approximately two years.
The substantial majority of the options awarded have been granted at exercise prices equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted without cost to the recipients are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods.
Income Taxes
As part of the process of preparing its financial statements, the company is required to estimate income taxes in various jurisdictions. The process requires estimating the company’s current tax exposure, including assessing the risks associated with tax audits, as well as estimating temporary differences due to the different treatment of items for tax and accounting policies. The temporary differences are reported as deferred tax assets and or liabilities. Substantially all of the company’s U.S., Australia, New Zealand and Denmark deferred tax assets are offset by a valuation allowance. The company also must estimate the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and whether or not valuation allowances should be established. In the event that actual results differ from its estimates, the company’s provision for income taxes could be materially impacted. The company does not believe that there is a substantial likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported related to its critical accounting estimates.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In February, 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02 or the ASU). ASU 2013-02 requires companies to report, in one place, changes in and reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI). The ASU does not change what is required to be reported in OCI. The company adopted ASU 2013-02 in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, with no impact on the company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Balance Sheets or Statement of Cash Flows. See Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in the Notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The company is exposed to market risk through various financial instruments, including fixed rate and floating rate debt instruments. The company does at times use interest swap agreements to mitigate its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Based on June 30, 2013 debt levels, a 1% change in interest rates would impact annual interest expense by approximately $320,000. Additionally, the company operates internationally and, as a result, is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Specifically, the exposure results from intercompany loans, intercompany sales or payments and third party sales or payments. In an attempt to reduce this exposure, foreign currency forward contracts are utilized to hedge intercompany purchases and sales as well as third party purchases and sales. The company does not believe that any potential loss related to these financial instruments would have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial condition or results of operations.
The company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively convert a portion of floating rate revolving credit facility debt to fixed rate debt to avoid the risk of changes in market interest rates. Specifically, interest rate swap agreements, as of June 30, 2013, for notional amounts of $22 million through September 2013 and $12 million through April 2014 were entered into that fix the LIBOR component of the interest rate on that portion of the revolving credit facility debt at rates of 0.46% and 0.54%, respectively, for effective aggregate rates of 2.46% and 2.54%, respectively.
On October 28, 2010, the company entered into a Credit Agreement which, as amended, provides for a $250,000,000 senior secured revolving credit facility maturing in October 2015 at variable rates. As of June 30, 2013, the company had outstanding $13,350,000 in principal amount of 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due in February 2027, of which $3,034,000 is included in equity. Accordingly, while the company is exposed to increases in interest rates, its exposure to the volatility of the current market environment is limited as the company does not currently need to re-finance any of its debt. However, the company’s Credit Agreement contains covenants with respect to, among other items, consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and interest coverage, as defined in the agreement. As of June 30, 2013, the company was in compliance with all covenant requirements, but should it fall out of compliance with these requirements, the company would have to attempt to obtain alternative financing and thus likely be required to pay much higher interest rates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The information called for by this item is provided under the same caption under Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2013, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of the company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on that evaluation, the company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files and submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the company’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Part II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
In the ordinary course of its business, the company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits, primarily product liability actions in which various plaintiffs seek damages for injuries allegedly caused by defective products. All of the product liability lawsuits in the United States have been referred to the company's captive insurance company and/or excess insurance carriers while all non-U.S. lawsuits have been referred to the company's commercial insurance carriers. All such lawsuits are generally contested vigorously. The coverage territory of the company's insurance is worldwide with the exception of those countries with respect to which, at the time the product is sold for use or at the time a claim is made, the U.S. government has suspended or prohibited diplomatic or trade relations. Management does not believe that the outcome of any of these actions will have a material adverse effect upon the company's business or financial condition.
In December 2012, the company reached agreement with the FDA on the terms of the consent decree of injunction with respect to the company's corporate facility and its Taylor Street wheelchair manufacturing facility in Elyria, Ohio. A complaint and consent decree were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, and on December 21, 2012, the Court approved the consent decree and it became effective. The consent decree limits the company's manufacture and distribution of power and manual wheelchairs, wheelchair components and wheelchair sub-assemblies at or from its Taylor Street manufacturing facility. The decree also temporarily had limited design activities related to wheelchairs and power beds that take place at the impacted Elyria, Ohio facilities, and these restrictions on design activities were removed on July 15, 2013. The company is entitled to continue to produce from the Taylor Street manufacturing facility certain medically necessary products, as well as ongoing replacement, service and repair of products already in use, under terms delineated in the consent decree and is able to fulfill purchase orders and quotes that were in the company's order fulfillment system prior to the effective date of the decree. Under the terms of the consent decree, in order to resume full operations at the impacted facilities, the company must successfully complete a third-party expert certification audit and receive written notification from the FDA. The certification audit is comprised of three distinct reports. The expert certification audit will be followed by an FDA inspection of the company's compliance with the quality system regulations. Each of the three audits will result in a third-party expert report that will then be reviewed by the FDA which will complete its own review procedures. The FDA has the authority to reinspect at any time. Once satisfied with the company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities.
At the time of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the company has completed the first two of its third-party expert certification audits, and the FDA has found the results of both to be acceptable. In these reports, the third-party expert certified that the company's equipment and process validation procedures and its design control systems are compliant with the FDA's Quality System Regulation. As a result of the FDA's approval of the first certification audit, the Taylor Street facility was able to resume supplying parts and components for the further manufacturing of medical devices at other company facilities. The company's receipt of the FDA's approval on the second certification report resulted in the company being able to resume design activities related to power wheelchairs and power beds. The third, most comprehensive third-party certification audit is a comprehensive review of the company's compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulation at the impacted Elyria facilities.
The company began its third, final and most comprehensive third party certification audit in late March, and, in light of the scope and complexity of the audit, the company now expects the third-party certification report to be completed and filed with the FDA by mid-November 2013. Once completed, according to the consent decree, the FDA has thirty (30) days after receipt of the third expert certification audit results to commence its own inspection. However, it is possible the FDA could ask questions or seek additional information concerning the third certification report. It is not possible for the company to estimate the timing or potential response of the FDA's inspection and subsequent written notifications. Following successful completion of the FDA inspection and the company's receipt of written notification from the FDA that the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities appear to be in compliance, the company may resume full operations at those facilities.
For additional information regarding the consent decree, please see the following sections of the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2012: Item 1. Business - Government Regulation and Item 1A. Risk Factors; and Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Outlook and - Liquidity and Capital Resources in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
As previously disclosed, in December 2010, the company received a warning letter from the FDA related to quality system processes and procedures at the company's Sanford, Florida facility. At the time of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, this matter remains pending. See Item 1A. Risk Factors in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2012.
On May 24, 2013, a lawsuit was filed against Invacare Corporation, Gerald B. Blouch, A. Malachi Mixon III and Robert K. Gudbranson in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio alleging that the defendants violated federal securities laws by failing to properly disclose the issues that the company has faced with the FDA. The lawsuit seeks class certification and unspecified damages for purchasers of the company's common shares between July 22, 2010 and December 7, 2011. This lawsuit has been referred to the company's insurance carriers. The company intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
The company received a subpoena in 2006 from the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) seeking documents relating to three longstanding and well-known promotional and rebate programs maintained by the company. The company believes that the programs described in the subpoena are in compliance with all applicable laws and the company has cooperated fully with the government investigation. As of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the subpoena remains pending; although the last communication with the DOJ was in 2007.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2012.
