Explanatory Note
Concurrently with the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company is filing Amendment No.1 on Form 10-K/A to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company is restating its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of September 30, 2005 and for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The restatement includes adjustments arising from a review of the Companys historical stock option grant practices, including adjustments to stock based compensation expense as a result of an analysis of the Companys historical stock option measurement dates. In October, 2006, the Companys Board of Directors appointed a Special Committee ,which was assisted by independent legal counsel and accounting experts, to conduct a review of the Companys historical stock option granting practices. The Special Committee reported its results in January, 2007 and the Company completed its accounting analysis in April, 2007, concluding that a restatement was necessary. See Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRestatement related to stock options, and Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of such amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for more information.
In the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, the Company restated its consolidated balance sheets of June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005; the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2006, June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004; and related disclosures. The restatement included adjustments arising from the review of the Companys stock option grant practices and related accounting issues for the fiscal periods from 1994 to 2006. The Company also recorded adjustments affecting previously-reported financial statements for fiscal years prior to fiscal 2004, the impact of which has been reflected as an adjustment to retained earnings as of June 30, 2003. The Form 10-K/A also includes the restatement of selected consolidated financial data as of and for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002, which is included in Item 6, Selected Financial Data, of the Form 10-K/A, and the unaudited quarterly financial data for each of the quarters in the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, which is included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the Form 10-K/A.
Except as set forth in the previous paragraph, we do not intend to amend any of our other previously filed annual reports on Form 10-K or quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods affected by the restatement or adjustments, but have amended and restated (i) information as of September 30, 2005 and for the three month period then ended which is included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, (ii) information as of December 31, 2005 and for the three and six-month periods then ended which is included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2006, and (iii) information as of March 31, 2006 and for three and nine-month periods then ended which is included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007. Except as otherwise specifically noted in this Quarterly Report in Form 10-Q and except for the sections of this Form 10-Q entitled Special Committee Review of Past Stock Option Granting Practices in Item 1, Note 1A to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and Item 4 Controls and Procedures, all of the information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is as of September 30, 2006 and does not reflect events occurring after September 30, 2006. Accordingly, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2006, and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2007, as well as any Current Reports filed on Form 8-K.
On October 26, 2006, the Company announced unaudited results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 that ended on September 30, 2006. The announced results were impacted by the restatement. The pre-tax impact on previously announced net income was a reduction of approximately $141,000 for Restatement Adjustments and an increase of $1,576,000 for Audit Adjustments. The net result is an approximately $803,000 positive net after tax impact on the previously announced net income for the first quarter, with a $.04 increase to the earlier reported fully diluted earnings per share.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of ScanSource, Inc. (the Company) have been prepared by the Companys management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the results of operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and the statement of cash flows for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. The results of operations for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006.
(1A.) Special Committee Review of Past Stock Option Granting Practices
On October 9, 2006, the Company announced that the Companys Board of Directors had appointed a Special Committee, comprised solely of independent directors who were not members of the compensation committee during the review period (the Special Committee), to conduct a review of the Companys stock option grant practices and related accounting issues from the time of its initial public offering in 1994 to the present. The Special Committee was assisted in its review by independent legal counsel and advisors. During the three month investigation, the Special Committee and its independent counsel, assisted by independent forensic accountants, reviewed the facts and circumstances surrounding stock option grants made to executive officers, employees and non-employee directors, searched relevant physical and electronic documents and interviewed current and former directors, officers and employees.
On January 19, 2007, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had received the findings of the Special Committee from its review of the Companys stock option grant practices and related accounting issues. In conjunction with these findings, the Board also received from the Special Committee, and approved, recommendations with respect to the Companys stock option grant process. For more information regarding the Special Committees findings, see Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRestatement related to stock options of, and Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Special Committee also, in its findings, recommended that management determine the impact on the Companys accounting for the options grants referenced in the findings and make appropriate adjustments and required disclosures.
On April 20, 2007, the Company announced that the Companys management had completed the analysis called for by the Special Committee and had reached a determination that, under applicable accounting principles, the appropriate measurement dates for certain stock options differed from the recorded measurement dates for certain stock option grants. The Company announced that it expected the difference in these measurement dates would result in non-cash, stock based compensation expenses and that it was expected that, as a result of the effects on previously reported financial statements, restatements would be required for certain periods.
The Company also announced on April 20, 2007 that its Board of Directors determined that the Companys previously issued financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, and perhaps financial statements for earlier periods, including other historical financial information, related disclosures and applicable reports of its independent registered public accounting firm, should no longer be relied upon, and that the Company would restate previously issued financial statements as necessary.
On May 15, 2007, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had determined, in consultation with the
8
SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Companys management and its independent registered public accounting firm, and based on guidance recently issued by the Office of Chief Accountant of the SEC regarding restatements relating to accounting for stock option grants, that the restatement of the Companys financial statements would include a restatement of financial statements for fiscal years 2004, 2005 and 2006 and restated quarterly financial information for fiscal 2005 and 2006 quarters (in addition to the other disclosures set forth in the referenced guidance, as applicable) and that accordingly, such annual and quarterly financial statements should no longer be relied upon. Further, with respect to financial statements for all earlier periods, the restatement would affect financial statements for prior fiscal years, and, based on the referenced SEC guidance, those adjustments would be reflected in selected financial data for fiscal years ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 with columns labeled restated, and as part of the opening balances for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004.
Accordingly, as a result of the findings of the Special Committee and the results of managements accounting analysis, the Company has, concurrent with this filing, filed an amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 to restate its financial statements included therein, consistent with the foregoing guidance. See Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRestatement related to stock options of, and Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in such amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for more information.
The Company has reviewed stock option grant practices and as a result has determined that for certain of its grants the appropriate measure date differed from the recorded measurement date. As a result, the Company performed an accounting analysis which resulted in the restatement of compensation expense related payroll taxes, and resulting income tax.
In accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Statement No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123(R) for fiscal year 2006, the restated consolidated financial statements reflect additional compensation expense to the extent the fair market value of a share of common stock on the correct measurement date exceeded the exercise price of the option. The additional non-cash compensation expense was amortized over the required service period, which was generally the vesting period of each respective grant.
The restatement has resulted in additional stock-based compensation expense and other expenses related to audit adjustments partially offset by income tax benefits, as follows:

The restatement is comprised of (i) $5.3 million of additional non-cash stock option compensation, (ii) an additional expense associated with payroll taxes of $1.6 million related to exercises of stock options for the same periods, and (iii) because the Company receives a tax deduction upon the exercise of employee stock options that were granted in the money, an income tax benefit of $1.7 million, resulting in a cumulative after tax adjustment to reduce net income over the period 1995 to 2006 by $5.3 million. Additionally, the audit adjustments described below in Restatement related to audit differences impact the restatement by $25,000. The expected impact of the restatement on fiscal year 2007 and future years is approximately $0.7 million of additional stock option expense although this amount may decrease if future forfeitures are greater than anticipated forfeitures. No single year impact is material for fiscal year 2007 and future years.
The cumulative after tax adjustment for fiscal years 1995 through 2003 subtotaled above is included in the restated fiscal year 2004 balance sheet as a reduction in retained earnings.
As part of the restatement process, management reviewed any other items in our previously issued financial statements which it believed should be corrected. There were two additional adjustments as of our fiscal 2006 year end audit; one related to the overstatement of the allowance for doubtful accounts and the other related to an understated accrual for value added tax on goods and services. The aggregate adjustments for these items decreased net income by $25,000. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, net income decreased $330,000; for fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, net income increased $689,000; for fiscal year ended June 30, 2004, net income decreased $250,300, and for fiscal year 2003 and prior fiscal years, net income decreased $115,100.
The table below shows the effect of the restatement adjustments on our previously reported condensed consolidated balance sheet for June 30, 2006.

(2) Business Description
The Company is a leading wholesale distributor of specialty technology products, providing value-added distribution sales to resellers in the specialty technology markets. The Company has two geographic distribution segments: one serving North America from the Memphis, Tennessee distribution center, and an international segment currently serving Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe from distribution centers located in Florida and Mexico, and in Belgium, respectively. The North American distribution segment markets automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) and point-of-sale (POS) products through its ScanSource sales unit; voice, data and converged communications equipment through its Catalyst Telecom sales unit; voice, data and converged communications products through its Paracon sales unit; video conferencing and telephony products through its T2 Supply unit; and electronic security products through its ScanSource Security Distribution unit. The international distribution segment markets AIDC and POS products through its ScanSource sales unit.
(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Accounting Standards Recently Issued
Stock Split
Effective June 5, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a two-for-one stock split of the common stock effected in the form of a 100% common stock dividend. All shares and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.
Consolidation Policy
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Minority Interest
Minority interest represents that portion of the net equity of majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company held by minority shareholders. The minority shareholders share of the subsidiaries income or loss is listed separately in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. Effective July 1, 2006, the Company acquired an additional 8% of Netpoint International, Inc. (Netpoint) and now owns 92% of the subsidiary.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory reserves. Management bases its estimates on assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form a basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, management believes that its estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable and that the actual results will not vary significantly from the estimated amounts.
The following significant accounting policies relate to the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:
(a) Allowances for Trade and Notes Receivable
The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from customers failure to make payments on accounts receivable due to the Company. Management determines the estimate
14
SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable by considering a number of factors, including: (1) historical experience, (2) aging of the accounts receivable and (3) specific information obtained by the Company on the financial condition and the current creditworthiness of its customers. If the financial condition of the Companys customers were to deteriorate and reduce the ability of the Companys customers to make payments on their accounts, the Company may be required to increase its allowance by recording additional bad debt expense. Likewise, should the financial condition of the Companys customers improve and result in payments or settlements of previously reserved amounts, the Company may be required to record a reduction in bad debt expense to reverse the recorded allowance. A provision for estimated losses on returns and allowances is recorded at the time of sale based on historical experience.
(b) Inventory Reserves
Management determines the inventory reserves required to reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market based principally on the effects of technological changes, quantities of goods on hand, and other factors. An estimate is made of the market value, less cost to dispose, of products whose value is determined to be impaired. If these products are ultimately sold at less than estimated amounts, additional reserves may be required. Likewise, if these products are sold for more than the estimated amounts, reserves may be reduced.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation in the accompanying financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Book overdrafts, representing checks prepared but not yet cleared at the Companys bank, of $55,825,000 and $43,421,000 as of September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively, are included in accounts payable.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Companys foreign currency exposure results from purchasing and selling internationally in several foreign currencies. In addition, the Company has foreign currency risk related to debt that is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through the use of derivative financial instruments or multi-currency borrowings. The market risk related to the foreign exchange agreements is offset by changes in the valuation of the underlying items. The Company currently does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor is the Company a party to leveraged derivatives.
Derivative financial instruments are accounted for on an accrual basis with gains and losses on these contracts recorded in income in the period in which their value changes, with the offsetting entry for unsettled positions being booked to either other assets or other liabilities. These contracts are generally for a duration of 90 days or less. The Company has elected not to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments. They are, therefore, marked to market with changes in their value recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement each period. The underlying exposures are denominated primarily in British Pounds, Euros, and Canadian Dollars. Summarized financial information related to these derivative contracts and changes in the underlying value of the foreign currency exposures follows:

The notional amount of forward exchange contracts is the amount of foreign currency to be bought or sold at maturity. Notional amounts are indicative of the extent of the Companys involvement in the various types and uses of derivative financial instruments and are not a measure of the Companys exposure to credit or market risks through its use of derivatives. The estimated fair value of derivative financial instruments represents the amount required to enter into similar offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on quoted market prices.
Inventories
Inventories (consisting of AIDC, POS, business phone, converged communications equipment, video conferencing equipment, and electronic security system products) are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
Vendor Programs
The Company receives incentives from vendors related to cooperative advertising allowances, volume rebates and other incentive agreements. These incentives are generally under quarterly, semi-annual or annual agreements with the vendors. Some of these incentives are negotiated on an ad hoc basis to support specific programs mutually developed between the Company and the vendor. Vendors generally require that we use their cooperative advertising allowances exclusively for advertising or other marketing programs. Incentives received from vendors for specifically identified incremental cooperative advertising programs are recorded as adjustments to selling, general and administrative

expenses. EITF Issue No. 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor (EITF 02-16) requires that the portion of these vendor funds in excess of our costs to be reflected as a reduction of inventory. Such funds are recognized as a reduction of the cost of products sold when the related inventory is sold.
The Company records unrestricted, volume rebates received as a reduction of inventory and as a reduction of the cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. Amounts received or receivable from vendors that are not yet earned are deferred in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the Company may receive early payment discounts from certain vendors. The Company records early payment discounts received as a reduction of inventory and recognizes the discount as a reduction of cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. EITF 02-16 requires management to make certain estimates of the amounts of vendor incentives that will be received. Actual recognition of the vendor consideration may vary from management estimates based on actual results.
Product Warranty
The Companys vendors generally warrant the products distributed by the Company and allow the Company to return defective products, including those that have been returned to the Company by its customers. The Company does not independently warrant the products it distributes; however, to maintain customer relations, the Company facilitates vendor warranty policies by accepting for exchange, with the Companys prior approval, most defective products within 30 days of invoicing. The Company offers certain warranty service programs and records a provision for estimated service warranty costs at the time of sale, adjusting periodically to reflect actual experience. To date neither warranty expense, nor the accrual for warranty costs has been material to the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Property and Equipment, and Other Assets (except Other Identifiable Intangible Assets)
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years for furniture, equipment and computer software, 40 years for buildings and 15 years for building improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, major renewals and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized.
For property and equipment and other assets, except other identifiable intangible assets, if the sum of the expected cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or may be impaired. Impairment charges of $148,000 and $0 were recognized for the quarters ended September 30, 2006, and 2005, respectively, in operating expenses for the impairment of certain capitalized assets for the North American distribution segment. These assets included software that was no longer functional based on operational needs.
Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired in acquisitions accounted for using the purchase method. During fiscal years 2006 and 2005, the Company performed its annual test of goodwill to determine if there was impairment. The Companys impairment tests included the determination of each reporting units fair value using market multiples and discounted cash flows modeling. No impairment was required to be recorded related to the Companys annual impairment testing. In addition, the Company performs an impairment analysis for goodwill whenever indicators of impairment are present. No such indicators existed for the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
17
SCANSOURCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The Company reviews the carrying value of its intangible assets with finite lives, which includes customer lists, debt issue costs, trade names, and non-compete agreements, as current events and circumstances warrant to determine whether there are any impairment losses. If indicators of impairment are present in intangible assets used in operations, and future cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the assets carrying amount, an impairment loss is charged to expense in the period identified. Customer lists are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 10 years. Debt issue costs are amortized over the term of the credit facility. Trade names are amortized over 10 years. Non-compete agreements are amortized over their contract life. These assets are included in other assets (see Note 7).
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of financial instruments is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying values of financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, borrowings under the revolving credit facility and subsidiary lines of credit approximate fair value based upon either short maturities or variable interest rates of these instruments.
Contingencies
The Company accrues for contingent obligations, including estimated legal costs, when it is probable that a liability is incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. As facts concerning contingencies become known, management reassesses its position and makes appropriate adjustments to the financial statements. Estimates that are particularly sensitive to future changes include tax, legal, and other regulatory matters, which are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation process.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized once four criteria are met: (1) the Company must have persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery must occur, which happens at the point of shipment (this includes the transfer of both title and risk of loss, provided that no significant obligations remain); (3) the price must be fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility must be reasonably assured. A provision for estimated losses on returns is recorded at the time of sale based on historical experience.
The Company has service revenue associated with configuration and marketing, which is recognized when the work is complete and all obligations are substantially met. The Company also sells third-party services, such as maintenance contracts. Since the Company is acting as an agent for these services, revenue is recognized net of cost at the time of sale. Revenue from multiple element arrangements is allocated to the various elements based on the relative fair value of the elements, and each revenue cycle is considered a separate accounting unit with recognition of revenue based on the criteria met for the individual element of the multiple deliverables.
Shipping Revenue and Costs
Shipping revenue is included in net sales and related costs are included in cost of goods sold. Shipping revenue for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $2.8 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company defers advertising related costs until the advertising is first run in trade or other publications, or in the case of brochures, until the brochures are printed and available for distribution. Advertising costs, included in marketing costs, after vendor reimbursement, were not significant in the quarters ended September 30, 2006 or 2005. Deferred advertising costs at September 30, 2006 and 2005 were not significant.

Foreign Currency
The currency effects of translating the financial statements of the Companys foreign entities that operate in their local currency are included in the cumulative currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The assets and liabilities of these foreign entities are translated into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rate at the end of the respective period. Sales, costs and expenses are translated at average exchange rates effective during the respective period.
Foreign currency transactional and re-measurement gains and losses are included in other expense (income) in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. Such gains, net of losses, were $345,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Such losses, net of gains, were $82,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Deferred income taxes reflect tax consequences on future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Federal income taxes are not provided on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it has been the practice of the Company to reinvest those earnings in the business outside of the United States.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are determined in accordance with SFAS No.109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company evaluates the tax assets and liabilities on a periodic basis and adjusts the balances as appropriate.
The Company records valuation allowances to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. In assessing the adequacy of recorded valuation allowances, the Company considers a variety of factors including, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. In the event the Company determines it would be able to use a deferred tax asset in the future in excess of its net carrying value, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would reduce income tax expense, thereby increasing net income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it was unable to use all or part of its net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income tax expense, thereby reducing net income in the period such determination was made.
Share-Based Payment
Effective July 1, 2005, the Company began accounting for share-based compensation under the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which requires the recognition of the fair value of share-based compensation. Under the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), share-based compensation is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the awards expected to vest and recognized as expense ratably over the requisite service period of the award. The Company has used the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate fair value of share-based awards, which requires various assumptions including estimating stock price volatility, forfeiture rates and expected life.
For the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the number of options exercised for shares of common stock were 17,761 and 23,272, respectively.

Accounting Standards Recently Issued
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Current Year Misstatements. SAB No. 108 requires analysis of misstatements using both an income statement (rollover) approach and a balance sheet (iron curtain) approach in assessing materiality and provides for a one-time cumulative effect transition adjustment. SAB No. 108 is effective for the Companys fiscal year 2007 annual financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of SAB No. 108 will have on its consolidated financial statements; the impact is not expected to be material.
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plansan amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). SFAS No. 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. SFAS No. 158 will become effective for the Company as of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. The Company does not have a defined benefit pension plan and is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS No. 158 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. This statement is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial statements by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on de-recognition of tax benefits previously recognized and additional disclosures for unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The Company is currently evaluating whether the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The May 14, 2007 waiver covers information and documentation for three quarters and is effective through June 30, 2007 (or as late as July 31, 2007 under certain conditions).
On February 14, 2007, the Companys revolving credit facility was amended to permit the Company to redeem shares of its capital stock, so long as the amount paid in connection with the redemptions does not exceed $2 million during any fiscal year.
On April 20, 2007, the Companys revolving credit facility Bank Group agreed to an increase in the Bank Groups commitment from $150 million to $200 million. Effective that date, the facility has an accordion feature that allows the Company to unilaterally increase the availability from $180 million to $200 million, in minimum increments of $5 million.
On April 27, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to lease approximately 600,000 square feet for distribution, warehousing and storage purposes in a building located in Southaven, Mississippi. The lease also provides for a right of first refusal on an additional 147,000 square feet of expansion space. The lease provides for market rental rates and commences upon substantial completion of construction, which is expected to be October 1, 2007, with a term of 120 months, and 2 consecutive 5-year extension options. Subject to finalization of construction costs, the minimum average annual rent commitment is approximately $1.9 million. The lease is conditioned upon the Company receiving approval for certain economic development tax incentives from the state of Mississippi.
On November 21, 2006, a purported stockholder filed a derivative lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina in Greenville, South Carolina against certain current and former officers and directors of the Company and against the Company, as a nominal defendant, asserting causes of action based on alleged violations of securities laws (including alleged violations of Section 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 of the SEC) and other common law claims including, breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting and unjust enrichment relating to allegations concerning certain of the Companys prior stock option grants. It seeks relief in the form of an accounting, rescission, unspecified money damages, disgorgement, attorneys fees, fees and expenses and other relief.
On April 2, 2007 the Court appointed the plaintiff as lead plaintiff and ordered that any later actions filed in the same Court and that relate to the same facts shall be consolidated. Our response, including a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, is currently due on July 11, 2007.
On April 11, 2007, another purported stockholder filed a substantially similar derivative lawsuit also related to the Companys prior grants of stock options. This action was also filed in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina in Greenville, South Carolina against certain current and former officers and directors of the Company and against the Company, as a nominal defendant, and asserts substantially similar causes of action and claims for relief. The plaintiff in this second action has filed a motion to consolidate the two actions and appoint the plaintiff as a co-lead plaintiff. Our response, including a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, is currently due July 11, 2007. The derivative lawsuits are in a preliminary stage and the Company believes that it is taking appropriate actions regarding both derivative lawsuits.
For more information concerning the review by the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Companys stock option granting practices and the findings and recommendations of the Special Committee see Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements presented in Part I, Item I of this report, Part II, Item 7.

The Company is also continuing voluntarily to provide information to the SEC and the Department of Justice in connection with the Special Committees review.
On March 12, 2007 the Companys insurance carrier, subject to a reservation of rights, provided a preliminary position on coverage for the first derivative claim in which the carrier indicated that the lawsuit allegations appear to constitute a claim within coverage of the Companys insurance policy. The carrier continues to assess coverage of this matter.
On April 13, 2007, the Company provided notice to the insurance carrier of the second action. The insurance carrier is reviewing the second action and assessing coverage for the matter. The carrier has indicated, however, that its coverage position with regard to the second action will be consistent with the first; i.e., that the allegations of the second derivative lawsuit appear to constitute a claim within the coverage of the Companys insurance policy. The carrier has not recognized as within coverage the costs, fees and expenses incurred for the work related to the Special Committee at this stage. The Company is evaluating its alternatives to address its coverage claim position.

North American Distribution
North American distribution sales include sales to technology resellers in the United States and Canada from the Companys Memphis, Tennessee distribution center. Sales to technology resellers in Canada account for less than 5% of total net sales for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. The 23.5% or $81.4 million increase in North American distribution sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in the prior year, was due primarily to the reasons described below.
Sales of the AIDC and POS product categories for the North America distribution segment increased 20.0% as compared to the prior year quarter. The AIDC and POS businesses grew primarily through increased market share and improvement in the POS systems business. The ScanSource Security Distribution sales unit was created during the quarter ended December 31, 2004. Sales of that unit were immaterial for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
Sales of communications products increased 27.2% as compared to the prior year quarter. Catalyst Telecom, which distributes small and medium business and enterprise products, and Paracon, which distributes communications products, experienced sales growth from increased market share. The communications business also included sales for T2 Supply, a sales unit acquired July 3, 2006. Prior twelve month sales for T2 Supply prior to the acquisition were approximately $77 million.
International Distribution
The international distribution segment includes sales to Latin America (including Mexico) and Europe from the ScanSource selling unit. Sales for the overall international segment increased 55.6% or $24.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the prior year quarter. The increase in sales was primarily attributable to increased sales from larger deals in Mexico and increased market share in Europe. Further, we chose to carry higher inventory levels in Europe for both RoHS compliant and non-RoHS compliant inventory. (RoHS is a European Union environmental directive which caused manufacturers to comply with new guidelines effective July 1, 2006. The RoHS Directive bans the placing on the European Union market of new electrical and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants). The higher inventory levels allowed us better availability than competition during the quarter. Without the foreign exchange fluctuations, the increase in sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 would have been $22.2 million or 50.7%.

North American Distribution
Gross profit for the North American distribution segment increased 24.9% or $8.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the prior year quarter as a result of increased sales volume including the acquisition of T2 Supply.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the North American distribution segment increased compared to the same periods in the prior year due to a favorable customer mix, including higher services revenues. Normally, good growth in sales includes the impact of large lower gross profit margin percentage deals. In the quarter ended September 30, 2006, there were fewer larger deals, and hence, our customer mix had higher value add content which gains better gross margin percentages.
International Distribution
Gross profit for the international distribution segment increased 51.5% or $2.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to increased distribution sales volume.
Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, which is typically greater than the North American Distribution segment, decreased for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to larger deals at lower margins in Mexico with lower value-add requirements.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, operating expenses increased compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is due principally to the recognition of higher bad debt expense of approximately $2.1 million, amortization expense for T2 Supply intangibles of $395,000, and $1.9 million for both incremental and T2 Supply-related increases in employee headcount and related benefits.
The Company continues to invest in North America customer training and development programs for new technologies and vertical marketing (such as converged communications, RFID Edge, and Solution City) and its electronic security business. In addition, the Company continues to invest in Europe and Latin America due to its growth potential in those markets. In Europe, the Company has expanded geographically, increased marketing, and increased employee headcount. With respect to its Latin American market, the Company has increased employee headcount in Miami and Mexico City in order to serve an expanding customer base and continues its expanded regional VAR training program.

Interest expense reflects interest paid on borrowings on the Companys line of credit and long-term debt. Interest expense for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $1.8 million and $511,000, respectively. The increased expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was due to higher average debt balances, primarily due to the acquisition of T2 Supply and to an increase in working capital.
Foreign exchange gains and losses consist of foreign currency transactional and functional currency re-measurements, offset by net foreign currency exchange contract gains and losses. Net foreign exchange gains for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 were $345,000. Net foreign exchange losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 were $82,000. The change in foreign exchange gains and losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the prior year quarter are primarily the result of fluctuations in the value of the Euro versus the British Pound, and to a lesser extent, the U.S. Dollar versus other currencies. The Company utilizes foreign exchange contracts and debt in non-functional currencies to hedge foreign currency exposure. The Companys foreign exchange policy prohibits entering into speculative transactions.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $7.8 million and $5.4 million (restated) for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, reflecting an effective income tax rate of 38.4% and 37.4%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is due to the mix of earnings by country, and to the prior year utilization of net operating loss benefits which were fully utilized prior to fiscal year 2007.
Minority Interest in Income of Consolidated Subsidiaries
The Company consolidates subsidiaries that have a minority ownership interest. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company recorded $33,000 and $59,000, net of income tax, respectively, of minority interest expense in the Companys majority owned subsidiarys net income. The decrease in minority interest expense is primarily due to the decreased percentage of minority interest in Netpoint, the Companys majority-owned subsidiary.

ITEM 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Companys primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations, borrowings under the revolving credit facility, secured and unsecured borrowings, and, to a lesser extent, borrowings under the subsidiarys line of credit, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
The Companys cash and cash equivalent balance totaled $3.1 million at September 30, 2006 compared to $3.8 million at June 30, 2006. Domestic cash is generally swept on a nightly basis to pay down the Companys line of credit. The Companys working capital increased to $314.0 million at September 30, 2006 from $262 .2 million at June 30, 2006. The increase in working capital resulted primarily from a $46.7 million increase in the Companys trade and notes receivable and a $2.9 million increase in inventories, both financed through an increase in the revolving credit facility. These increases are the result of higher sales at the end of the quarter and the worldwide growth of the Company, including the T2 Supply acquisition.
The increase in the amount of trade accounts receivable is attributable to an increase in sales during the quarter. The number of days sales outstanding (DSO) in ending trade receivables increased to 63 days at September 30, 2006 compared to 59 days at June 30, 2006. The increase in DSO for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 is a result of longer negotiated terms on larger, strategic deals reflecting the Companys decision to manage receivables to attain return on invested capital targets. Inventory turnover remained at 7.2 times in both the quarter ended September 30, 2006 and the quarter ended June 30, 2006 reflecting managements effectiveness in managing increased inventory relative to sales growth and certain duplicate RoHS inventory for Europe.
Cash used in operating activities was $25.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 compared to $14.0 million of cash provided by operating activities for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to a strategic increase in trade receivables and the timing of vendor payments (in accordance with such terms).
Cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was $51.1 million. Cash used for business acquisitions totaled $50.6 million, primarily for the acquisition of T2 Supply and for an additional ownership interest in the Companys majority-owned subsidiary, Netpoint. The Companys capital expenditures of $548,000 were primarily for purchases of equipment, software, and furniture.
Cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was $2.4 million, which included $1.2 million for capital expenditures and $1.2 million primarily for the purchase of additional ownership interest in the Companys majority-owned subsidiary, Netpoint, and its now wholly-owned subsidiary, OUI. The Companys capital expenditures included $1.1 million related to the expansion of the Memphis, Tennessee distribution center, as well as purchases of software, furniture and equipment.
At September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the Company had a multi-currency revolving credit facility with its Bank Group of $140 million and $100 million, respectively, which matures on July 31, 2008. This facility was entered into on July 16, 2004 and has an accordion feature that allows the Company to unilaterally increase the revolving credit line up to a commitment of $150 million. During the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company exercised $40 million of its $50 million credit facility accordion, increasing the revolving credit facility exercised amount to $140 million with the maximum commitment remaining at $150 million. The revolving credit facility may be increased by the Company up to an additional $10 million through commitments from the existing Bank Group. The facility bears interest at either the 30-day LIBOR rate of interest on U.S. dollar borrowings or the 30, 60, 90 or 180-day LIBOR rate of interest on other currency borrowings. The interest rate is the appropriate LIBOR rate plus a rate varying from 0.75% to 1.75% tied to the Companys funded debt to EBITDA ratio ranging from 0.00:1.00 to 2.50:1.00 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.50:1. The effective weighted average interest rate at September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006 was 5.44% and 4.38%, respectively. The outstanding borrowings at September 30, 2006 were $85.7 million on a total commitment of $150 million, leaving $64.3 million available for additional borrowings. The outstanding borrowings at June 30, 2006 were $27.6 million on a total commitment of $130 million, leaving $102.4 million available for additional borrowings. The facility is collateralized by domestic assets, primarily accounts receivable and inventory. The agreement contains
32
ITEM 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
other restrictive financial covenants, including among other things, total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio, capital expenditure limits, and a prohibition on the payment of dividends. On November 9, 2006, a ninety day waiver was received under the Companys revolving credit facility with respect to the delivery of certain quarterly information and documentation to the Companys lenders, to the extent impacted by the review of the Special Committee of the Companys stock option grant practices and related accounting issues. The waiver was extended on February 14, 2007 and on May 14, 2007. The May 14, 2007 waiver covers information and documentation for three quarters and is effective through June 30, 2007 (or as late as July 31, 2007 under certain conditions). The Company was in compliance with its covenants at September 30, 2006.
On February 14, 2007, the Companys revolving credit facility was amended to permit the Company to redeem shares of its capital stock, so long as the amount paid in connection with the redemptions does not exceed $2 million during any fiscal year.
On April 20, 2007, the Companys revolving credit facility Bank Group agreed to an increase in the Bank Groups commitment from $150 million to $200 million. Effective that date, the facility has an accordion feature that allows the Company to unilaterally increase the availability from $180 million to $200 million, in minimum increments of $5 million.
At September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, Netpoint, doing business as ScanSource Latin America, had an asset-based line of credit with a bank that was due on demand and had a borrowing limit of $1 million. The facility was renewed in January 2007, and is scheduled to mature on January 31, 2008. The facility is collateralized by accounts receivable and eligible inventory, and contains a restrictive covenant which requires an average deposit of $50,000 with the bank. The Company has guaranteed 92% and 84% of the balance on the line as of September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, respectively, while the remaining balance was guaranteed by Netpoints minority shareholder. The facility bears interest at the banks prime rate minus one percent. At September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the effective interest rate was 7.25%. At September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, there were no outstanding balances and outstanding standby letters of credit totaled $40,000, leaving $960,000 available for borrowings. The Company was in compliance with its loan covenants at September 30, 2006.
On July 25, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank for a $13 million unsecured long-term note payable with monthly payments of interest only. At September 30, 2006, the balance of the note was $13 million and the effective rate of interest was 5.98%. The note matures in fiscal year 2009.
On August 17, 2006, the Company obtained an overdraft facility with a borrowing limit of 3 million. At September 30, 2006, the balance was 2.9 million or $3.7 million, and the effective rate of interest was 4.02%.
Cash provided by financing activities for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 totaled $76.2 million, including advances of $57.7 million under the Companys credit facility, $12.9 million in additional long-term debt, a $3.7 million increase in short-term borrowings, $1.6 million in excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements and $269,000 in proceeds from stock option exercises.
Cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 totaled $3.2 million, including a $4.5 million decrease in short-term borrowings and $113,000 in payments on long-term debt offset with $780,000 in advances under the Companys credit facility, $477,000 in excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements, and $88,000 in proceeds from stock option exercises.
The Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity to meet its forecasted cash requirements for at least the next fiscal year.
Accounting Standards Recently Issued
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Current Year Misstatements. SAB No. 108
33
ITEM 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
requires analysis of misstatements using both an income statement (rollover) approach and a balance sheet (iron curtain) approach in assessing materiality and provides for a one-time cumulative effect transition adjustment. SAB No. 108 is effective for the Companys fiscal year 2007 annual financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of SAB No. 108 will have on its consolidated financial statements; the impact is not expected to be material.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plansan amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). SFAS No. 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. SFAS No. 158 will become effective for the Company as of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. The Company does not have a defined benefit pension plan and is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS No. 158 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. This statement is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial statements by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on de-recognition of tax benefits previously recognized and additional disclosures for unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is required to be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The Company is currently evaluating whether the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Impact of Inflation
The Company has not been adversely affected by inflation as technological advances and competition within specialty technology markets has generally caused prices of the products sold by the Company to decline. Management believes that any price increases could be passed on to its customers, as prices charged by the Company are not set by long-term contracts.
34
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
The Companys principal exposure to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of its business is a result of its selective use of bank debt and transacting business in foreign currencies in connection with its foreign operations. The Company has chosen to present this information below in a sensitivity analysis format.
The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of its borrowing activities, which include revolving credit facilities with a group of banks used to maintain liquidity and fund the Companys business operations. The nature and amount of the Companys debt may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. The definitive extent of the Companys interest rate is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements, but the Company does not believe such risk is material. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on borrowings on the Companys revolving line of credit, variable rate long term debt and subsidiary line of credit for the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 would have resulted in an approximately $308,000 and $87,000 increase or decrease, respectively, in pre-tax income. The Company does not currently use derivative instruments or take other actions to adjust the Companys interest rate risk profile.
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from its foreign operations in Canada, Mexico and Europe. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, inter-company loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in non-functional currencies. Foreign exchange risk is managed by using foreign currency forward and option contracts to hedge these exposures, as well as balance sheet netting of exposures. The Companys Board of Directors has approved a foreign exchange hedging policy to minimize foreign currency exposure. The Companys policy is to utilize financial instruments to reduce risks where internal netting cannot be effectively employed and not to enter into foreign currency derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company monitors its risk associated with the volatility of certain foreign currencies against its functional currencies and enters into foreign exchange derivative contracts to minimize short-term currency risks on cash flows. The Company continually evaluates foreign exchange risk and may enter into foreign exchange transactions in accordance with its policy. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in other expense (income).
The Company has elected not to designate its foreign currency contracts as hedging instruments, and therefore, the instruments are marked to market with changes in their values recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement each period. The underlying exposures are denominated primarily in British Pounds, Euros, and Canadian Dollars. At September 30, 2006, the Company had currency forward contracts outstanding with a net liability under these contracts of $14,000. At June 30, 2006, the Company had currency forward contracts outstanding with a net liability under these contracts of $25,000.
The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged financial instruments. On the basis of the fair value of the Companys market sensitive instruments at September 30, 2006, the Company does not consider the potential near-term losses in future earnings, fair values and cash flows from reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates and exchange rates to be material.

ITEM 4. | Controls and Procedures |
Special Committee Review of Stock Option Grant Practices and Restatement
On October 9, 2006, a Special Committee of the Board of Directors, consisting solely of independent directors, began a review of the Companys historical stock option grant practices and related accounting issues from the time of its initial public offering in 1994 to 2006. The Special Committee with the assistance of independent legal counsel concluded its review and reported its findings and recommendations to management on January 15, 2007. The findings of the Special Committee were reported to the SEC in a Current Report on Form 8-K filing dated January 19, 2007 and indicated that, among other things, that there were deficiencies in the administration and oversight of the Companys stock option grant process including a lack of adequate processes and procedures for making grants, and an inattention to the need for accurate and timely documentation of grant decisions.
The Special Committee also recommended that management determine the impact of the findings on the Companys accounting for the option grants referenced in the findings and make appropriate adjustments and required disclosures.
In accordance with the Special Committees recommendations, management initiated a detailed analysis of the facts and circumstances for all options granted between 1994 and 2006 and initially concluded that under applicable accounting rules, the appropriate measurement dates for certain stock option grants differed from the recorded measurement grant dates. Management completed the analysis and provided a preliminary estimate to the Board of the adjustment required for the changes to measurement dates to appropriately account for such grants.
On April 16, 2007, after consultation with management, the Board determined that the Companys previously issued financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006 (and perhaps financial statements for earlier periods) should no longer be relied upon because the adjustments were material and would require restatement. The non-cash stock based compensation adjustments reflected in the restatement total $5.3 million and relate primarily to stock option grant measurement date errors.
For more information regarding the review of the Companys stock option grant practices and the related restatement of financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, see Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements presented in Part I, Item I of this report, Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRestatement related to stock options of the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, and Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006.
Evaluation of Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. The Companys Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) evaluated, with the participation of management, the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report as required by Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act.
Based on this evaluation, which included the findings of the Special Committees investigation and the restatement described herein, our CEO and CFO concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level on September 30, 2006 because of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as it relates to stock option granting practices, as described in Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (Restated) in Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, in the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006.
Specifically, the Company did not have adequate controls in place over the determination of appropriate measurement dates and the related accounting for the stock option compensation costs included in selling, general and administrative expenses. As discussed below, certain changes to the Companys internal controls have been implemented as of the date
36
ITEM 4. | Controls and Procedures |
of this filing.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management has taken and continues to take additional steps to remediate the material weakness discussed above for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, to significantly strengthen stock option grant practices and to implement processes to prevent and detect any future instances of improper accounting for stock options. The Board of Directors has reviewed and approved the steps being taken, including enhancements to policies and procedures, assignment of appropriate personnel to provide oversight over the administration and accounting for the stock option plans, and clear statements of the responsibilities and authority with respect to the granting of equity awards. These steps include:
| Conducting a complete review of substantially all stock options granted for the period from 1994 to 2006 - Management performed a detailed review of the facts and circumstances surrounding each option grant made to employees for the period from 1994 to 2006, and believes that all accounting issues were identified and have been appropriately adjusted. |
| Modifying policies and procedures - Specific requirements for documentation of stock option award authorization and details, including timing of grant activities, are now identified in policies and procedures. These policies and procedures include procedures for determining the grant date, the exercise price, the detailed lists of award recipients and other procedures for ensuring that the awards are in accordance with the applicable stock option plan provisions and that the administration and accounting occurs within the appropriate time frame. |
| Changing personnel and responsibilities for authority and oversight - The authority to grant equity awards is now clearly stated as the responsibility of the Compensation Committee of the Board, except that equity awards for newly-hired employees may be delegated to the CEO within appropriate written guidelines. The CFO and General Counsel of the Company have been given responsibility for ensuring compliance with the equity award policies and oversight for documentation and accounting for stock option awards. |
| Clarifying Board procedures for grant approval and documentation - The Compensation Committee of the Board will have regularly scheduled meetings to discuss option awards and will document their meetings in minutes. Equity awards will only be approved at these meetings and will be promptly communicated to the CFO and the General Counsel. The minutes of the meetings will explicitly state the details of the awards including grantees, exercise price, number of shares underlying awards, and vesting schedules. |
| Enhancing stock option administration - An independent third-party specializing in stock option administration is being hired to provide administrative services for the Companys stock option plans. |
There were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, that occurred during the Companys fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Subsequent to September 30, 2006, the Company initiated the review of stock option grants described above. Stock option grant policies were approved by the Board of Directors on April 12, 2007. The Company began taking the remaining remediation actions described above, including the establishment of detailed stock option grant procedures, during the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2007.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are executed in accordance with managements authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. However, the Companys management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that the Companys disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are

met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty. Breakdowns in the control systems can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
On November 21, 2006, a purported stockholder filed a derivative lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina in Greenville, South Carolina against certain current and former officers and directors of the Company and against the Company, as a nominal defendant, asserting causes of action based on alleged violations of securities laws (including alleged violations of Section 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 of the SEC) and other common law claims including, breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting and unjust enrichment relating to allegations concerning certain of the Companys prior stock option grants. It seeks relief in the form of an accounting, rescission, unspecified money damages, disgorgement, attorneys fees, fees and expenses and other relief. On April 2, 2007 the Court appointed the plaintiff as lead plaintiff and ordered that any later actions filed in the same Court and that relate to the same facts shall be consolidated. Our response, including a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, is currently due on July 11, 2007.
On April 11, 2007, another purported stockholder filed a substantially similar derivative lawsuit also related to the Companys prior grants of stock options. This action was also filed in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina in Greenville, South Carolina against certain current and former officers and directors of the Company and against the Company, as a nominal defendant, and asserts substantially similar causes of action and claims for relief. The plaintiff in this second action has filed a motion to consolidate the two actions and appoint the plaintiff as a co-lead plaintiff. Our response, including a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, is currently due July 11, 2007. The derivative lawsuits are in a preliminary stage and the Company believes that it is taking appropriate actions regarding both derivative lawsuits.
For more information concerning the review by the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of the Companys stock option granting practices and the findings and recommendations of the Special Committee see Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements presented in Part I, Item I of this report, Part II, Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsRestatement related to stock options of the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, and Note 1A to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Company is also continuing voluntarily to provide information to the SEC and the Department of Justice in connection with the Special Committees review.
On March 12, 2007 the Companys insurance carrier, subject to a reservation of rights provided a preliminary position on coverage for the first derivative claim in which the carrier indicated that the lawsuit allegations appear to constitute a claim within coverage of the Companys insurance policy. The carrier continues to assess coverage of this matter.
On April 13, 2007, the Company provided notice to the insurance carrier of the second action. The insurance carrier is reviewing the second action and assessing coverage for the matter. The carrier has indicated, however, that its coverage position with regard to the second action will be consistent with the first; i.e., that the allegations of the second derivative lawsuit appear to constitute a claim within the coverage of the Companys insurance policy. The carrier has not recognized as within coverage the costs, fees and expenses incurred for the work related to the Special Committee at this stage. The Company is evaluating its alternatives to address its coverage claim position.
The Company or its subsidiaries are, from time to time, parties to other lawsuits arising out of operations. Although there can be no assurance in this regard, based upon information known to the Company, the Company does not believe that any liability resulting from an adverse determination of such other lawsuits would have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.
