AMERICAN WOODMARK CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending April 30, 2011. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2010.
NOTE B--NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plans. ASU 2010-06 was adopted by the Company on May 1, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE C--COMPREHENSIVE LOSS
The Company’s comprehensive loss was $7.1 million and $10.2 million for the three months and six months ended October 31, 2010, respectively, and $5.5 million and $12.1 million for the three months and six months ended October 31, 2009, respectively. Comprehensive loss differs from net loss due to the changes in the Company’s pension benefits liability. See Note J “Pension Benefits” for more information regarding the Company’s pension costs.
NOTE D--EARNINGS (NET LOSS) PER SHARE
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (net loss) per share:

Potentially dilutive securities of 36,000 and 18,000 shares have not been considered in the calculation of net loss per share for the three months and six months ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, as the effect would be anti-dilutive.
NOTE E--STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has various stock compensation plans. During the quarter ended October 31, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company granted a total of 20,000 service-based restricted stock units to non-employee directors. These awards vest daily while the director is a member of the Board and entitle the recipient to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per unit granted with a maturity date of August 15, 2012. During the six months ended October 31, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company also approved grants of non-statutory stock options and performance and service-based restricted stock units to key employees. The employee non-statutory stock options totaled 115,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $20.87 per share. The options vest evenly over a three-year period and have ten-year contractual terms. The employee performance-based restricted stock units totaled 125,475 units and the employee and non-employee director service-based restricted stock units totaled 61,825 units. The performance-based restricted stock units entitle the recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per unit granted if certain performance conditions are met and the recipient remains employed with the Company until the units vest. The service-based units entitle the recipient to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per unit granted if they remain employed with the Company until the units vest.
Total compensation expense related to stock-based awards during the three-month periods ended October 31, 2010 and 2009 was $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and for the six-month periods ended October 31, 2010 and 2009 was $1.8 million and $2.3 million, respectively. For the three-month and six-month periods ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, stock-based compensation expense was allocated as follows:

For the six-month periods ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, the gain recognized by the Company related to the liquidation of LIFO based inventories was not material. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Since these items are estimated, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.
NOTE H--PRODUCT WARRANTY
The Company estimates outstanding warranty costs based on the historical relationship between warranty claims and revenues. The warranty accrual is reviewed monthly to verify that it properly reflects the remaining obligation based on the anticipated expenditures over the balance of the obligation period. Adjustments are made when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates. Warranty claims are generally made within three months of the original shipment date.

Employer Contributions
Under the requirements of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, the Company is not required to make a mandatory contribution to the pension plans during fiscal 2011. Accordingly, no contributions were made to these plans during the six months ended October 31, 2010, and the Company does not plan to make any voluntary contributions during fiscal 2011.
NOTE K – RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company announced a restructuring plan to close two of its manufacturing plants, located in Berryville, Virginia, and Moorefield, West Virginia, and suspend operations in a third manufacturing plant located in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. These actions were completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This initiative impacted approximately 600 employees. The continuing housing slump, at that time, led to the decision to reduce production capacity. These initiatives were intended to increase the Company’s utilization rates and decrease overhead costs within the Company’s manufacturing operations. In addition to these initiatives, the Company made other staffing reductions during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009.
During fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, the Company recognized pre-tax restructuring charges of $2.8 million and $9.7 million, respectively. During the six months ended October 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized pre-tax restructuring charges of $39,000 and $2.8 million, respectively. The Company recognized recurring operating costs relating to the closed facilities of $0.4 million in the six months ended October 31, 2010. Such costs are expected to continue until the closed plants are sold and the new plan for the suspended plant is determined.
A reserve for restructuring charges in the amount of $13,000 is included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2010, which relates to employee termination costs.
The following is a summary of the restructuring reserve balance as of October 31, 2010:

The Company has a total of three manufacturing plants that were idled in 2009. Two of these plants have been closed and classified as held for sale. The Company believes that the $0.9 million net book value of these two plants is fully recoverable. These assets are included in Other Assets on the Company’s balance sheet at October 31, 2010. The Company has not yet determined how its idled manufacturing plant in Tahlequah, Oklahoma will be utilized in the future. Accordingly, the $4.9 million net book value for this asset continues to be classified as Property, Plant and Equipment on the Company’s balance sheet at October 31, 2010, and continues to be depreciated at a rate of $0.5 million per year. The Company expects it may incur approximately $1.5 million in additional restructuring charges relating to management’s estimate of shortfall in fair value of the idled Tahlequah plant for which future utilization plans have not been determined.
NOTE L—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company utilizes the hierarchy of fair value measurement to classify certain of its assets and liabilities based upon the following definitions:
Level 1 — Investments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s cash equivalents are invested in money market funds, mutual funds and United States Treasury instruments. The Company’s mutual fund investment assets represent contributions made and invested on behalf of the Company’s named executive officers as a supplementary employee retirement plan.
Level 2 — Investments with observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no level 2 assets or liabilities.
Level 3 — Investments with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no level 3 assets or liabilities.
The following table summarizes the fair values of assets that are recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2010 and April 30, 2010 at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

NOTE M--OTHER INFORMATION
The Company is involved in suits and claims in the normal course of business, including product liability and general liability claims, and claims pending before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. On at least a quarterly basis, the Company consults with its legal counsel to ascertain the reasonable likelihood that such claims may result in a loss. As required by the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450, “Contingencies,” (ASC 450), the Company categorizes the various suits and claims into three categories according to their likelihood for resulting in potential loss: those that are probable, those that are reasonably possible, and those that are deemed to be remote. The Company accounts for these loss contingencies in accordance with ASC 450. Where losses are deemed to be probable and estimable, accruals are made. Where losses are deemed to be reasonably possible or remote, a range of loss estimates is determined and considered for disclosure. Where no loss estimate range can be made, the Company and its counsel perform a worst case estimate. In determining these loss range estimates, the Company considers known values of similar claims and consultation with independent counsel.
The Company believes that the aggregate range of loss stemming from the various suits and asserted and unasserted claims which were deemed to be either probable or reasonably possible was not material as of October 31, 2010.
NOTE N--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On November 18, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a $.09 per share cash dividend on the Company’s common stock. The cash dividend will be paid on December 20, 2010, to shareholders of record on December 6, 2010.
Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, both of which are included in Part I, Item 1 of this report. The Company’s critical accounting policies are included in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report, which was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2010.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains statements concerning the Company’s expectations, plans, objectives, future financial performance, and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In most cases, the reader can identify these forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “expect,” “believe,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “plan,” “may” or other similar words. Forward-looking statements contained in this report, including in Management’s Discussion and Analysis are based on current expectations and our actual results may differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. In addition, the Company participates in an industry that is subject to rapidly changing conditions and there are numerous factors that could cause the Company to experience a decline in sales and/or earnings or deterioration in financial condition. These include (1) overall industry demand at reduced levels, (2) economic weakness in a specific channel of distribution, (3) the loss of sales from specific customers due to their loss of market share, bankruptcy or switching to a competitor, (4) a sudden and significant rise in basic raw material costs, (5) a dramatic increase to the cost of diesel fuel and/or transportation related services, (6) the need to respond to price or product initiatives launched by a competitor, (7) the Company’s ability to successfully implement initiatives related to increasing market share, new products, maintaining and increasing its sales force and new product displays, and (8) sales growth at a rate that outpaces the Company’s ability to install new capacity. Additional information concerning the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements is contained in this report and also in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010, including Item 1A, "Risk Factors" and Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk," as well as the Company’s 2010 Annual Report, including under the headings "Forward-Looking Statements," "Market Risks," and "Outlook for Fiscal 2011" in Management's Discussion and Analysis. While the Company believes that these risks are manageable and will not adversely impact the long-term performance of the Company, these risks could, under certain circumstances, have a materially adverse impact on its operating results and financial condition.
Any forward-looking statement that the Company makes, speaks only as of the date of this report. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or cautionary factors, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Overview
American Woodmark Corporation manufactures and distributes kitchen cabinets and vanities for the remodeling and new home construction markets. Its products are sold on a national basis directly to home centers, major builders and home manufacturers, and through a network of independent dealers and distributors. At October 31, 2010, the Company operated 11 manufacturing facilities and 9 service centers across the country.
The three-month period ended October 31, 2010 was the Company’s second quarter of its fiscal year that ends on April 30, 2011 (fiscal 2011). During the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company experienced a continuation of difficult housing market conditions that have prevailed since the market peaked in 2006. Private Residential Fixed Investment, as reported by the U.S Department of Commerce, declined by 6% compared with the prior year’s third calendar quarter. In the remodeling market, cabinet sales reported by members of the Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association also declined by mid-single digits during this same period, and comparable store cabinet sales for the Company’s two largest customers also declined. In the new construction market, the expiration of the second national housing stimulus program had the effect of boosting housing starts during the Company’s first quarter, and reducing them during its second quarter. Overall, housing starts were flat with prior year levels during both the three and six-month periods that ended on October 31, 2010.
Faced with these challenging market conditions, the Company and its largest remodeling customers chose to utilize aggressive promotions during the current year fall selling season to boost sales. These promotions consisted of free products and cash discounts to consumers based upon the amount and/or type of cabinets they purchased. The Company and its customers received favorable customer response from these promotions, as the Company’s order levels rose in the mid-teens during the fiscal 2011 second quarter compared with same prior year period. From a timing perspective, the Company’s remodeling sales rose by approximately the same amount as the Company’s overall 3% sales increase for its second quarter of fiscal year 2011, and are poised to rise by more than that during its upcoming third quarter. However, these elevated remodeling order levels were achieved at a significantly higher promotional cost than in the prior year. These elevated cost levels were the primary reason that the Company’s gross margin declined and its net loss increased compared with the prior year’s second quarter results. Promotional costs are expected to remain at elevated levels during the Company’s third quarter, and then gradually return to more normalized levels.
Compared with a flat housing starts environment, the Company realized a 10% sales increase in its new construction sales channel during the first six months of fiscal year 2011. This result, combined with the Company’s increase in remodeling sales, indicates that the Company has realized market share gains in both of its sales channels during this time period.
The Company’s net sales rose by 6% during the first half of fiscal 2011 and by 3% during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with the comparable periods in the prior fiscal year. The Company’s gross margin rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was 9.1%, down from 12.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company’s gross margin rate for the first six months of fiscal 2011 was 11.2%, down from 12.0% in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The decline in the Company’s gross margin rate during the three and six-month periods ended October 31, 2010 compared with prior year primarily reflected the unfavorable impact of increased sales promotion costs that either reduced sales or increased cost of sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2011.
During fiscal 2009, the Company announced its intention to realign its manufacturing network by closing two of its oldest manufacturing plants and suspending operations in a third. These initiatives were achieved during fiscal 2010. The vast majority of the charges related to these activities were reflected in the Company’s results during fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2010. The Company recorded restructuring charges during the three and six-month periods ended October 31, 2010 amounting to $16,000 and $39,000, respectively. Comparatively, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $233,000 and $2,787,000 during the same periods in the prior fiscal year.
Despite the present housing market downturn, the Company believes that the long-term fundamentals for the American housing industry continue to remain positive, based upon long-term fundamentals of population growth, favorable demographics, job creation and low long-term interest rates. Based upon this belief, the Company has continued to invest in improving its operations and its capabilities to service its customers. The Company remains focused on growing its market share and has continued to invest in developing and launching new products while maintaining its product displays and related marketing collateral deployed with its customers. The Company continues to manage its balance sheet and cash flow to ensure that it has ample resources to invest in growing its capabilities and market share, to enable its return to profitability via vigorous participation in the market’s eventual recovery.
The Company regularly assesses its long-lived assets to determine if any impairment has occurred, and regularly evaluates its deferred tax assets to determine whether a valuation allowance is necessary. Although the Company is presently operating at a loss in what appears to be the bottom of the housing market, the Company expects that improvements in market demand and continued market share gains will enable it to return to profitability. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that neither its long-lived assets pertaining to its 11 manufacturing plants nor any of its other long-lived assets were impaired and that no valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets was necessary as of October 31, 2010.

Net Sales. Net sales were $107.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011, an increase of 3% as compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2010. For the first six months of fiscal 2011, net sales were $216.9 million, reflecting an increase of 6% compared with the same period of fiscal 2010. Unit volume was flat when compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and improved 3% compared to the first half of fiscal 2010. Average revenue per unit increased by 3% during the three and six-month periods ended October 31, 2010 compared with prior year, driven by changes in sales mix.
Gross Profit. Gross profit margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was 9.1%, compared with 12.2% for the same period of fiscal 2010. Gross profit margin was 11.2% for the first half of fiscal 2011, compared with 12.0% in the first half of fiscal 2010.
The decrease in gross profit margin for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011 was due to increased remodeling channel sales promotion costs that were in turn driven by the Company’s significant increase in the use of sales promotions to combat challenging market conditions during fiscal 2011’s fall selling season. Sales promotion costs increased by 2.9% of net sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and 1.9% of net sales during the first six months of fiscal 2011.
Somewhat offsetting this adverse promotional cost impact, labor and overhead costs were favorably impacted during the first six months of fiscal 2011 due to savings realized from the plant closures that occurred in the prior fiscal year. These improvements were partially offset by higher material costs due to sales mix. The net effect of these factors was a favorable impact of 1.1% of net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2011. However, during the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the improvement in labor and overhead costs was almost entirely offset by the impact of higher material and freight costs related to changes in sales mix as well as rising diesel fuel costs.
Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses were 14.7% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, compared with 13.9% of sales for the same period in fiscal 2010. For the first six months of fiscal 2011, selling and marketing costs were 13.8% of sales, compared with 13.6% of sales for the same period of fiscal 2010. The increase in sales and marketing costs was driven by increased product development costs related to an aggressive fiscal 2011 fall product launch and to enhanced business development activities as the Company worked to expand its reach in the remodeling sector.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were 5.6% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, compared with 6.1% of sales for the same period in fiscal 2010. For the first six months of fiscal 2011, general and administrative costs were 5.5% of sales, compared with 6.2% of sales for the same period of fiscal 2010. The Company reduced its general and administrative costs by 6% during the first six months of fiscal 2011compared to the prior year period, driven by lower bad debt expense and lower stock compensation and incentive-based compensation expenses. As of October 31, 2010, the Company had less than $0.1 million of accounts with aggregate receivables from customers with a higher perceived level of risk.
Effective Income Tax Rates. The Company’s effective income tax rate for both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011 was 38.3% as compared with 37.5% in the comparable periods of fiscal 2010.
Outlook. The Company expects the continuing impact of housing supply overhang, unemployment and weak consumer confidence will cause the remodeling and new construction markets for its products to remain subdued until these conditions are resolved. The Company has updated its expectation regarding housing starts during its fiscal year 2011. The Company has reduced its expectation down to approximately 600,000 total housing starts, down from a previous expectation of 650,000. At this level, housing starts would reflect an increase over prior year levels of approximately 2%. The Company continues to expect that the remodeling market will be relatively flat compared with prior year levels.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $70.3 million at October 31, 2010, an increase from $67.7 million at April 30, 2010. At October 31, 2010, total short-term and long-term debt was $26.2 million, down $0.3 million from its April 30, 2010 balance. The Company’s ratio of long-term debt to total capital was 13.3% at October 31, 2010 compared with 12.7% at April 30, 2010.
The Company’s main source of liquidity is its existing cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash generated from operating activities and available borrowing capacity under its credit facility.
Cash provided by operating activities in the first half of fiscal 2011 was $7.6 million, compared with cash used by operating activities of $6.4 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2010. The improvement in cash provided by operations was primarily attributable to the receipt of the Company’s federal income tax refund and the absence of payments made by the Company in fiscal 2010 to implement its restructuring activities.
The Company’s primary investing activities are capital expenditures and investments in promotional displays. Net cash used for investing activities in the first half of fiscal 2011 was $2.4 million or $2.2 million less than in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year due to a decrease in the Company’s investment in promotional displays and the receipt of proceeds from the sale of a closed plant during fiscal 2011. Capital expenditures made in both six-month periods of fiscal 2010 and 2011 did not include any new plant construction activities. The Company expects its investments in capital expenditures and promotional displays for fiscal 2011 will approximate the total invested in fiscal 2010.
The Company’s financing activities typically consist of returning a portion of its free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used for investing activities) to its shareholders and repayments of debt, net of any proceeds received from the exercise of stock options. During the first half of fiscal 2011, net cash used by financing activities was $2.5 million, compared with net cash used in the comparable period of fiscal 2010 of $2.4 million. The primary use of cash for financing activities during both periods was to return cash to the Company’s shareholders in the form of dividends. The Company made no repurchases of its common stock during the first half of fiscal 2011 or the first half of fiscal 2010.
The Company generated positive free cash flow of $5.2 million in the first half of fiscal 2011, compared with negative free cash flow of $11.0 million in the first half of fiscal 2010. The improvement in fiscal 2011 was driven by receipt of the Company’s federal income tax refund, proceeds from the sale of a closed plant and the absence of payments made in fiscal 2010 to implement its restructuring activities.
The Company can borrow up to $35 million under its credit facility; however, its aggregate debt under the credit facility cannot exceed the collateral value of the Company’s cash and specified investments held in accounts pledged to the credit facility issuer. At October 31, 2010, $10 million of loans and $3.7 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the credit facility, and $14.4 million of the Company’s cash was held as security. Under the terms of the credit facility, the Company must maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth not greater than 0.9 to 1.0 and must comply with other customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Company’s ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth at October 31, 2010 was 0.6 to 1.0. The credit facility does not limit the Company’s ability to use cash not held as security to pay dividends or repurchase its common stock as long as the Company maintains the required ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth. As of October 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all covenants specified in the credit facility.
The Company’s cash flow from operations combined with accumulated cash on hand is expected to be more than sufficient to meet forecasted working capital requirements, service existing debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 2011.
The timing of the Company’s contractual obligations as of April 30, 2010 is summarized in the table below.
