The
Company sells both lighting and graphics products into its most
significant market, the petroleum / convenience store market, with
approximately 22% and 27% of total net sales concentrated in this market
for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and
approximately 30% and 24% of total net sales concentrated in this market
for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
|
|
The
Company’s net sales to a major customer in the Graphics Segment, CVS
Corporation, represented approximately $24,910,000, or 10% of consolidated
net sales in the nine months ended March 31,
2007.
|
|
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, “Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards
for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires selected information of those segments to be
presented in interim financial statements. Operating segments
are identified as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete
financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating
decision maker (the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer) in
making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess
performance. While the Company has thirteen operating segments,
it has only two reportable operating business
segments: Lighting
|
|
The
Lighting Segment includes outdoor, indoor, and landscape lighting that has
been fabricated and assembled for the commercial, industrial and
multi-site retail lighting markets, including the petroleum/convenience
store market. The Lighting Segment includes the operations of
LSI Ohio Operations, LSI Metal Fabrication, LSI MidWest Lighting, LSI
Lightron and LSI Greenlee Lighting. These operations have been
integrated and have similar economic characteristics. LSI
Marcole, which produces wire harnesses used in the Company’s lighting
products and also manufactures electric wiring used by appliance
manufacturers in commercial and industrial markets, has been aggregated
into the Lighting Segment based on its overall immateriality compared to
the consolidated amounts of the reportable business segment and
management’s plans to continue to integrate its Lighting operations by
increasing its intercompany volume.
|
|
The
Graphics Segment designs, manufactures and installs exterior and interior
visual image elements related to image programs, menu board systems, solid
state LED digital advertising billboards, and solid state LED digital
sports and entertainment video screens. These products are used
in visual image programs in several markets, including the
petroleum/convenience store market and multi-site retail
operations. The Graphics Segment includes the operations of
Grady McCauley, LSI Retail Graphics and LSI Integrated Graphic Systems,
which have been aggregated as such facilities manufacture two-dimensional
graphics with the use of screen and digital printing, fabricate
three-dimensional structural graphics sold in the multi-site retail and
petroleum/convenience store markets, and exhibit each of the similar
economic characteristics outlined in paragraph 17 of SFAS No.
131. The Graphics Segment also includes LSI Images, which
manufactures three-dimensional menu board systems, and LSI Adapt, which
provides customers with surveying, permitting, engineering and
installation services related to products of the Graphics
Segment. The results of LSI Images, LSI Adapt, the solid-state
LED billboards and sports video boards, and the Smartvision video screens
for the entertainment market have been aggregated into the Graphics
Segment based on the overall immateriality of these operating segments
compared to the consolidated amounts of the reportable Graphics business
segment as these operating segments are driven by a few contract-specific
programs that vary year-over-year.
|
|
In
its evaluation of business segment reporting, the Company determined that
the total of external revenues reported by the operating segments in the
Lighting Segment (LSI Ohio Operations, LSI Metal Fabrication, LSI MidWest
Lighting, LSI Lightron, Greenlee Lighting) and the operating segments in
the Graphics Segment (Grady McCauley, LSI Retail Graphics and LSI
Integrated Graphic Systems) comprised more than 75% of total consolidated
revenue.
|
|
Effective
with the first quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company has realigned its
business segment reporting structure to reflect changes in its
manufacturing operations and changes in its internal management reporting
to the President and CEO, and to appropriately report operating results to
shareholders of the Company. This change resulted in the former
Technology Segment, which was comprised of the LSI Saco Technologies
operations, being collapsed into the Lighting and Graphics
Segments. LSI Saco Technologies will serve as the Company’s
R&D center with its primary mission to continue to develop solid-state
LED technology to be employed in both the Lighting
and
|
|
Graphics
Segments, and will also be responsible for Smartvision® video screens for
the entertainment market and some specialty LED lighting. The
marketing and sales of solid-state LED billboards and sports video boards
has been transferred from LSI Saco Technologies and will be overseen by
the President of LSI Graphics Solutions Plus. The
marketing and sales of all LED light fixtures will be overseen by the
president of LSI Lighting Solutions Plus. Segment information
from earlier periods contained herein has been recast to reflect the
change in business segment
composition.
|
|
Summarized
financial information for the Company’s reportable business segments for
the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, and as of
March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007 is as

The
Company identified its reporting units in conjunction with its annual
goodwill impairment testing. In connection with the
realignment of its operating business segments (see Note 4), the Company
allocated certain amounts of the goodwill and intangible assets that
resulted from the LSI Saco Technologies acquisition to certain of its
reporting units based upon the relative fair values of these reporting
units. The Company relies upon a number of factors, judgments
and estimates when conducting its impairment testing. These
include operating results, forecasts, anticipated future cash flows and
market place data, to name a few. There are inherent
uncertainties related to these factors and judgments in applying them to
the analysis of goodwill
impairment.

The
Company is party to various negotiations and legal proceedings arising in
the normal course of business, most of which are dismissed or resolved
with minimal expense to the Company, exclusive of legal
fees. Since October of 2000, the Company has been the defendant
in a complex lawsuit alleging patent infringement with respect to some of
the Company’s menu board systems sold over the past approximately eleven
years. The Company has defended and intends to continue to
defend this case vigorously. The Company made a reasonable
settlement offer in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 and, accordingly,
recorded a loss contingency reserve in the amount of
$590,000. This settlement offer was not accepted by the
plaintiff and the Company received a counter offer of $4.1 million to
settle the majority of the alleged patent infringement. In
March 2007, the Company received a favorable summary judgment
decision. As a result of the favorable summary judgment
decision, the loss contingency reserve of $590,000 was written off to
income in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. The plaintiffs in
this lawsuit appealed the summary judgment decision and in March 2008 the
summary judgment decision was vacated by the Appeals Court and the lawsuit
was remanded back to the lower level court for additional
consideration. With this lawsuit back in progress, the Company
intends to vigorously defend itself. In accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, “Accounting for
Contingencies,” the Company has not recorded a loss contingency reserve
because the probability and estimate of loss, if any, is
uncertain.
