NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2005
NOTE 1 Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete 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 June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005.
The consolidated condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2004 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
K2 Inc. (K2) reports its financial statements using a 13 week quarter ending on the last Sunday of March, June, September and December. For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the end of each quarter is stated as of March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, respectively.
The interim financial statements should be read in connection with the financial statements in K2s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
NOTE 2 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (Revised), Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123 (Revised) requires that companies recognize compensation expense equal to the fair value of stock options or other share based payments. The impact on K2s net income will include the remaining amortization of the fair value of existing options currently disclosed as pro forma expense in Note 3 and is contingent upon the number of future options granted, the selected transition method and the selection of either the Black-Scholes or the binominal lattice model for valuing options.
On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule that amended the compliance dates of SFAS No. 123 (Revised) to require implementation no later than the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005 (the year beginning January 1, 2006 for K2). Early adoption of SFAS No. 123 (Revised) is permissible. K2 is in the process of evaluating the use of certain option-pricing models as well as the assumptions to be used in such models. When such evaluation is complete, K2 will

NOTE 2 Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
determine the transition method to use, the timing of adoption and the impact any change in valuation models might have.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. SFAS No. 154 requires that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS No. 154 also provides that a change in method of depreciating or amortizing long-lived non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in estimate effected by a change in accounting principle and that correction of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a restatement. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Early adoption of this standard is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. K2 believes that implementing SFAS No. 154 should not have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 3 Stock Based Compensation
K2 currently applies the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations and provide pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share disclosures for employee stock option grants made as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. K2 has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123. As such, compensation expense for stock options issued to employees is recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. Had compensation cost been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for K2s stock options under SFAS No. 123 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share, including the following weighted average assumptions used in these calculations, would have been as follows:

The pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures since the estimated fair value of stock options is amortized to expense over the vesting period and additional options may be granted in future years. Since changes in the subjective assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model can materially affect the fair value estimate, management believes the model does not provide a reliable measure of the fair value of its options.

NOTE 3 Stock Based Compensation (Continued)
On May 17 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of K2 approved the acceleration of vesting of certain unvested and out-of-the-money stock options previously awarded to employees and officers under the K2 stock option plans. An option was considered out-of-the-money if the stated exercise price was greater than $11.94 per share, the closing price of K2s common stock on May 17, 2005, the last trading day before approval of the acceleration. Outstanding unvested options that had an exercise price equal to or less than $11.94 on May 17, 2005, will continue to vest under the terms of the original option agreements. As a result of this action, options to purchase approximately 2.1 million shares of K2s common stock that would otherwise have vested over the next three years became fully vested on May 17, 2005. The affected options had a range of exercise prices of $12.51 to $14.30 and a weighted average exercise price of $13.14. Options held by non-employee directors were not affected. In addition, the Compensation Committee imposed a holding period that will require that all executive officers of the Company not sell shares acquired through the exercise of an accelerated option (other than shares needed to cover the exercise price and satisfying withholding taxes) prior to the earlier of the date on which exercise would have been permitted under the options original vesting terms or, if earlier, the executive officers last day of employment.
The decision to accelerate the vesting of these options was made to reduce future compensation expense that is expected to be recorded in conjunction with K2s adoption of SFAS 123 (Revised). The incremental expense associated with the acceleration of the options is included in the pro forma disclosures above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005.

Note 5 Acquisitions
During the second quarter of 2005, K2 completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Hodgman, Inc., a business engaged in the design, selling and distribution of hunting and fishing waders, and JRC Products Limited, a business engaged in the design, selling and distribution of fishing tackle products. The purchase prices for these acquisitions were paid in cash. The results of the operations of these two companies were included in the consolidated financial statements of K2 beginning with the respective dates of the acquisition.
The two transactions completed during the second quarter of 2005 were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly the purchased assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values at the respective date of acquisition. The combined preliminary purchase price allocation for the two acquisitions resulted in an excess of the aggregate purchase price over net tangible assets acquired of approximately $7.0 million.
Based on a preliminary independent third party valuation obtained during the second quarter of 2005, the excess amounts of the two transactions were preliminarily allocated to intangible assets with finite and indefinite lives including: customer relationships and patents of $0.1 million with an average life of two years; tradenames with an indefinite life not subject to amortization of $2.9 million; and goodwill not subject to amortization of $4.0 million.
The final allocations of the purchase price of these two transactions will be completed during the second half of 2005 based on K2s final evaluation of such assets and liabilities.
At June 30, 2005, there was approximately $10.7 million of cash and 612,466 shares of K2 common stock held in escrow or due for payment relating to certain prior acquisitions. The cash and shares will be released from escrow during 2005 through 2008, subject to final agreement between K2 and the selling parties. The cash and shares in escrow, as well as future cash payments due have been reflected in the purchase price of the related acquisition. Shares held in escrow are reflected in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the periods presented.
During 2004, K2 completed nine acquisitions, including the acquisitions of Fotoball (later renamed K2 Licensed Products, Inc.) on January 23, 2004, Ex Officio on May 12, 2004, Marmot on June 30, 2004 and Völkl and Marker on July 7, 2004, as well as five smaller acquisitions.

Note 5 Acquisitions (Continued)
The consolidated condensed statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 includes the operating results of each of the businesses acquired in 2004, however the consolidated condensed statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 do not include the results of Marmot, Völkl and Marker or K2s other acquisitions completed after the 2004 second quarter since these companies were acquired by K2 on or subsequent to June 30, 2004. The 2004 second quarter results include less than a full three months of results of Worr Game Products and IPI both of which were acquired by K2 on April 19, 2004, and Ex Officio, which was acquired by K2 on May 12, 2004. In addition, the 2004 six month results include less than a full six months of results of K2 Licensed Products which was acquired by K2 on January 23, 2004, Worr Game Products and IPI both of which were acquired by K2 on April 19, 2004, and Ex Officio, which was acquired by K2 on May 12, 2004.
The following summarized unaudited pro forma information of K2 assume the acquisitions of Marmot and Völkl and Marker had occurred as of January 1, 2004, the earliest date for which information is presented below. This pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisitions been made as of those dates, or of results which may occur in the future. Pro forma results of operations of K2s other acquisitions completed during 2004 and 2005 have not been presented because the effects of these additional acquisitions were not material on either an individual basis or aggregate basis to K2s consolidated results of operations.

Pursuant to the acquisitions made by K2 during 2005, 2004 and 2003, K2 approved restructuring and exit plans related to the closure of certain facilities of the acquired companies. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination, K2 established reserves for employee severance, employee relocation costs and lease termination costs totaling approximately $0.6 million, $11.0 million and $5.1 million, during 2005, 2004 and 2003 respectively. These reserves were recognized as assumed liabilities of the acquired companies. The reserves established were not individually significant to any of K2s acquisitions during 2005, 2004 or 2003.

NOTE 6 Intangible Assets and Goodwill (Continued)
Based on the results of the annual impairment tests, K2 determined that no impairment of goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite lives existed as of December 31, 2004 and no indicators of impairment were present during the six months ended June 30, 2005. However, future indicators or impairment tests of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives could result in a charge to earnings. K2 will continue to evaluate goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives on an annual basis or whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that there may be a potential impairment.
K2 has evaluated the remaining useful lives of its finite-lived purchased intangible assets to determine if any adjustments to the useful lives were necessary or if any of these assets had indefinite lives and were therefore not subject to amortization. K2 determined that no adjustments to the useful lives of its finite-lived purchased intangible assets were necessary.
K2 considered the recent softness in consumer demand for paintball products within its Action Sports segment and has determined that no indicators of impairment existed at June 30, 2005 with respect to certain indefinite and finite-lived intangibles. In the event consumer demand continues to remain soft for paintball products, K2 may be required to record an impairment charge in future periods related to indefinite and finite-lived intangibles within the Action Sports segment.
NOTE 7 Warranties
K2 records the estimated cost of product warranties at the time sales are recognized. K2 estimates warranty obligations by reference to historical product warranty return rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting the product. Should actual product warranty return rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the historical rates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.

NOTE 8 Borrowings and Other Financial Instruments
At June 30, 2005, K2s principal long-term borrowing facility was a five-year, $250.0 million revolving credit facility (the Facility) expiring on July 1, 2009 with several banks and other financial institutions. The Facility is expandable to $350.0 million subject to certain conditions. The Facility has a $100.0 million limit for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under the Facility are secured by all of K2s assets in the United States, Canada and England. Actual borrowing availability under the Facility is based on K2s trade receivable and inventory levels in the United States, Canada and England, subject to eligibility criteria and defined advance rates. Borrowings under the Facility are subject to an interest rate grid, but as of June 30, 2005 bear a rate equal to the prime rate, or a LIBOR interest rate plus 2.00%, and the Facility had an unused commitment fee of 0.375% per year. The Facility includes various covenants, including requirements that K2 maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio, as well as limiting annual capital expenditures, indebtedness, dividends and certain investment activities.
On March 18, 2005, K2 obtained an amendment to its Facility allowing K2 to make up to $50.0 million in repurchases of K2 common stock provided that unused borrowing availability under the facility is at least $50.0 million after such repurchases.
On July 25, 2005, K2 also obtained an amendment to its Facility allowing K2 to issue up to $100.0 million in unsecured notes, subject to the approval of the administrative agent, provided the issuance is completed within 365 days and the net proceeds are used to repay borrowings outstanding under the Facility.
At June 30, 2005, borrowings of $73.0 million were outstanding under the Facility bearing an average interest rate of 4.96%. At June 30, 2005, there were also letters of credit outstanding under the Facility of $20.5 million (consisting of $13.7 million of standby letters of credit and $6.8 million of trade letters of credit expiring over the next 12 months). K2 has classified $16.3 million of seasonal borrowings outstanding under the Facility at June 30, 2005 as current. Pursuant to the terms of the Facility, an additional $135.1 million was available for borrowing at June 30, 2005.
At June 30, 2005, K2 also had $25.0 million of 7.25% convertible subordinated debentures (7.25% Debentures) due March 2010 outstanding. The 7.25% Debentures are convertible into 2,097,315 shares of K2 common stock at a conversion price of $11.92 per share. Pursuant to the agreement for these debentures, the noteholders received warrants to purchase 243,260 and 524,329 additional shares of K2s common stock at exercise prices of $13.14 and $11.92 per share, respectively, exercisable within the three and five year period ended February 14, 2006 and February 14, 2008, respectively (collectively, the Warrants). K2 assigned a total fair market value of $2,303,000 to the Warrants. At June 30, 2005, the aggregate unamortized fair market value of $1,231,000 is reflected as a reduction of the face amount of the 7.25% Debentures on K2s balance sheet which is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method through the exercise periods, thereby increasing the carrying value of the debentures.

NOTE 8 Borrowings and Other Financial Instruments (Continued)
At June 30, 2005, K2 also had $75.0 million of 5.00% convertible senior debentures (5% Debentures) due June 2010 outstanding. The 5% Debentures are convertible into 5,706,458 shares of K2 common stock at a conversion price of $13.14 per share. The debentures are redeemable by K2 in whole or in part at K2s option on or after June 15, 2008 at a redemption price of 101.429% beginning on June 15, 2008 and ending on June 14, 2009, and at 100.714% beginning on June 15, 2009 and ending on June 14, 2010.
At June 30, 2005, K2 also had $200.0 million of 7.375% senior, unsecured notes (Senior Notes) due July 1, 2014 outstanding. The Senior Notes are redeemable by K2 in whole or in part at K2s option at any time prior to July 1, 2009 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest plus a make-whole premium, as defined in the indenture. Thereafter, K2 may redeem all or a portion of the Senior Notes at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture. The Senior Notes include various incurrence covenants, including limitations on indebtedness, restricted payments and sales of assets.
At June 30, 2005, K2 also had $27.1 million outstanding under various foreign lending arrangements.
NOTE 9 Pension Plans
K2 sponsors several trusteed non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering about 850 of its domestic employees. Benefits are generally based on years of service and the employees highest average compensation for five consecutive years during the years of credited service. Contributions are intended to provide for benefits attributable to service to date and service expected to be provided in the future. K2 funds these plans in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
Effective August 31, 2004, the domestic pension plans (the plans) were amended to freeze the accrual of future benefits for almost all of the employees. This resulted in active participants no longer accruing benefits under the plans. Participants will remain eligible to receive benefits they have earned under the plans through August 31, 2004 when they retire. New employees will not be eligible to accrue any benefit under the plans. Only a small group of about 20 employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement will continue to accrue benefits. The impact of this change to the plans on K2s benefit costs was a one-time recognized curtailment loss of $0.4 million in the 2004 third quarter. The impact on future benefit costs is the elimination of the service cost and an $8.0 million reduction of the projected benefit obligation for future pay increases. This change to the plans has further resulted in an estimated reduction in net periodic pension costs for the 2005 year of $2.8 million.

The decline in the net periodic benefit cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 is due to K2 freezing its plans effective August 31, 2004. K2s cash contribution to its plans in 2005 is expected to be $5.7 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, K2 made contributions totaling approximately $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, to the plans.

NOTE 11- Earnings Per Share Data
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is determined by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilutive effects of stock options, restricted stock, common stock held in escrow and warrants, using the treasury stock method, and of the debentures using the if converted method. The table below provides a reconciliation from basic shares to fully diluted shares for the respective periods.
Options to purchase 4,450,291 and 3,588,884 shares of common stock were outstanding at June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At June 30, 2005, there were also 230,000 unvested restricted stock awards outstanding and 612,466 shares held in escrow relating to certain acquisitions. At June 30, 2005 and 2004, $100.0 million of convertible debentures, convertible into 7,803,742 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase 767,589 of shares of common stock were outstanding.
For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, approximately 2,167,000 and 424,000 stock options, respectively, were excluded since their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, 612,466 and 149,541 shares of common stock held in escrow, respectively, were included in the calculation of diluted EPS.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, approximately 1,500,000 and 435,000 stock options, respectively, were excluded since their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, 616,672 and 119,107 shares of common stock held in escrow, respectively, were included in the calculation of diluted EPS.
The EPS calculation for three and six months ended June 30, 2005 also excluded 7,803,742 shares from the issuance of the $100.0 million convertible subordinated debentures since their inclusion would have also been antidilutive.

NOTE 13 Contingencies
Certain of K2s products are used in relatively high risk recreational settings and from time to time K2 is named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting product liability claims relating to its sporting goods products. To date, none of these lawsuits has had a material adverse effect on K2, and K2 does not expect any lawsuit now pending to have such an effect. K2 maintains product liability, general liability and excess liability insurance coverage. No assurances can be given such insurance will continue to be available at an acceptable cost to K2 or such coverage will be sufficient to cover one or more large claims, or that the insurers will not successfully disclaim coverage as to a pending or future claim.
K2 is one of several named potentially responsible parties (PRP) in three Environmental Protection Agency matters involving discharge of hazardous materials at old waste sites in South Carolina and Michigan. Although environmental laws technically impose joint and several liability upon each PRP at each site, the extent of K2s required financial contribution to the clean-up of these sites is expected to be limited based upon the number and financial strength of the other named PRPs and the volume and types of waste involved which might be attributable to K2.
Environmental and related remediation costs are difficult to quantify for a number of reasons, including the number of parties involved, the difficulty in determining the extent of the contamination, the length of time remediation may require, the complexity of environmental regulation and the continuing advancement of remediation technology. K2 accrues for liabilities of this nature when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. At June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, K2 had recorded an estimated liability of approximately $800,000 for environmental liabilities. The estimate is based on K2s share of the costs to remediate as provided by the PRPs consultants and in ongoing discussions with the EPA or other environmental agencies. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, however, and taking into consideration reserves provided, management does not believe these matters will have a material adverse effect on K2s financial statements.
In January 2004, Rawlings was sued by a licensee in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine in connection with a license agreement pursuant to which the licensee was granted an exclusive license to use certain Rawlings trademarks for the manufacture and sale of team and personal sporting-equipment bags. This lawsuit was later transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. In February 2004, Rawlings gave the licensee notice that it was terminating the license agreement and sued the licensee in the Missouri District Court, in which Rawlings alleged, among other things, that the licensee breached the license agreement by failing to use its best efforts. This license agreement was in place prior to the March 26, 2003 acquisition of Rawlings by K2 Inc. Accordingly, during 2004, K2 established liabilities totaling $3.5 million for the estimated probable settlement or verdict on the matter.

NOTE 13 Contingencies (Continued)
On April 29, 2005, a jury awarded the licensee (1) $4.1 million for a claim of lost profits for the next ten years on sales of equipment bags, plus the value of inventory of such bags (the 10-Year Lost Profits Verdict), (2) $2.1 million for lost profits of equipment bags beginning ten years from the date of the breach of the agreement through forever (the Speculative Profits Verdict) and (3) $2.5 million for K2s alleged tortious interference with the licensees business expectations (the Tortious Interference Verdict) between Rawlings and the licensee, and the Missouri District Court ruled that the licensee was not permitted to bring certain claims to the jury. Following trial, the licensee filed a motion to recover approximately $0.6 million in attorneys fees and costs this motion is currently pending. Following the verdict, K2 established an additional $1.2 million in liabilities for a total of approximately $4.7 million in liabilities related to this litigation, including estimated legal fees and costs of licensees attorneys.
On May 19, 2005, K2 and Rawlings, (the Litigants), filed a motion for new trial with respect to the 10-Year Lost Profits Verdict and a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict with respect to the Speculative Profits Verdict and the Tortious Interference Verdict. On July 27, 2005, the Missouri District (1) denied the Litigants motion for a new trial in respect of the $4.1 million 10-Year Lost Profits Verdict, (2) granted the Litigants motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict with respect to the $2.1 million Speculative Profits Verdict and (3) denied the Litigants motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict for the $2.5 million Tortious Interference Verdict. The only matter that remains open for the Missouri District Court is the licensees motion for approximately $0.6 million in attorneys fees and costs. Accordingly, there is currently a judgment against the Litigants for approximately $6.8 million.
The Litigants intend to vigorously prosecute an appeal. K2 believes, in part based on advice and estimates from outside counsel as follows: that certain portions of the Missouri District Courts decision are not supported by facts or law; that there are meritorious arguments to be raised during the appeals process because, among other things, a lack of evidence to support certain aspects of the verdict; and that the Litigants aggregate exposure, including attorneys fees and costs of license, to be approximately $4.7 million. In connection with the appeal, the Litigants will be required by Missouri law to post bond in the amount of approximately $6.8 million. In the event that the Litigants are unsuccessful in their appeal and the amount of the judgment, including the fees and costs of attorneys for licensee, is greater than $4.7 million, or the outcome of an amount greater than $4.7 million becomes probable and estimable, K2 will be required to record an expense in the period in which the matter is finalized. However, this expense could be higher if the appeals court ruled in favor of the licensee for certain claims on which it is expected that licensee will appeal. The appeal process is expected to take one to two years.

NOTE 13 Contingencies (Continued)
K2 is involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including those identified above, consisting of product liability, patent, commercial, employment and environmental matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business. In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, K2 makes a provision for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. K2 believes that it has adequate provisions for such matters. K2 reviews these provisions at least quarterly and adjusts these provisions to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular legal matter. Litigation is inherently unpredictable. However, K2 believes that it has valid defenses with respect to legal matters pending against it. Nevertheless, it is possible that cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies.

ITEM 2 | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Certain statements in Managements Discussion and Analysis are forward-looking as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on current expectations that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from expectations as of the date of this filing because of the factors discussed below under the Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Disclosure section and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
K2 Inc. is a premier, branded consumer products company with a portfolio of leading brands including Shakespeare, Pflueger and Stearns in the Marine and Outdoor segment; Rawlings, Worth and K2 Licensed Products in the Team Sports segment; K2, Völkl, Marker, Ride and Brass Eagle in the Action Sports segment; and Adio, Marmot and Ex Officio in the Apparel and Footwear segment. K2s diversified mix of products is used primarily in team and individual sports activities such as fishing, watersports activities, baseball, softball, alpine skiing, snowboarding, in-line skating and mountain biking.
Matters Affecting Comparability
Operating Segments. As a result of a number of acquisitions in 2003 and 2004, K2 reclassified its business into the following four segments based on similar product types, distribution channels and managements perspective in evaluating K2s various lines of business: Marine and Outdoor, Team Sports, Action Sports and Apparel and Footwear. The Marine and Outdoor segment includes Shakespeare fishing tackle and monofilament products as well as Stearns outdoor products. The Team Sports segment includes baseball and softball products and K2 Licensed Products. The Action Sports segment includes skis, bindings, snowboards, snowshoes, in-line skates and paintball products. The Apparel and Footwear segment includes skateboard shoes and apparel, technical apparel and equipment and outdoor and adventure travel apparel. All periods presented have been recasted to reflect these changes in the segments.
The Marine and Outdoor segment represented $242.8 million, or 39.2%, of K2s 2005 first six months consolidated net sales; the Team Sports segment had net sales of $160.9 million, or 26.0% of 2005 first six months consolidated net sales; the Action Sports segment represented $145.5 million, or 23.4% of 2005 first six months consolidated net sales; and the Apparel and Footwear segment had net sales of $70.5 million, or 11.4% of 2005 first six months consolidated net sales.
Acquisitions. The consolidated condensed statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 includes the operating results of each of the businesses acquired in 2004, however the consolidated condensed statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 do not include the results of Marmot, Völkl and Marker or K2s other acquisitions completed after the 2004 second quarter since these companies were acquired by K2 on or subsequent to June 30, 2004. The second quarter of 2004 results include less than a full three months of results of Worr Game Products and IPI both of which were acquired by K2 on April 19, 2004, and Ex Officio, which was acquired by K2 on May 12, 2004. In addition, the 2004 six month results include less than a full six
30
months of results of K2 Licensed Products which was acquired by K2 on January 23, 2004, Worr Game Products and IPI both of which were acquired by K2 on April 19, 2004, and Ex Officio, which was acquired by K2 on May 12, 2004. Net sales from acquisitions completed by K2 on or subsequent to June 30, 2004 accounted for $32.6 million and $85.7 million of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. For further discussion of K2s acquisition activities see Note 5 to Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Acquisitions
During the second quarter of 2005, K2 completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Hodgman, Inc., a business engaged in the design, selling and distribution of hunting and fishing waders, and JRC Products Limited, a business engaged in the design, selling and distribution of fishing tackle products. The purchase price for these assets was paid in cash. The results of the operations of these two companies were included in the consolidated financial statements of K2 beginning with the date of the acquisition.
During 2004, K2 completed nine acquisitions, including the acquisitions of Fotoball USA, Inc. (later renamed K2 Licensed Products, Inc.) on January 23, 2004, Ex Officio on May 12, 2004, Marmot on June 30, 2004 and Völkl and Marker on July 7, 2004 as well as five smaller acquisitions.
31
Downsizing and Restructuring Activities
Pursuant to acquisitions made by K2 during 2005, 2004 and 2003, K2 approved restructuring and exit plans related to the closure of certain facilities of the acquired companies. In accordance with EITF 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination, K2 established reserves for employee severance, employee relocation costs and lease termination costs totaling approximately $0.6 million, $11.0 million and $5.1 million during 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These reserves were recognized as assumed liabilities of the acquired companies. The reserves established were not individually significant to any of K2s acquisitions during 2005, 2004 or 2003.
Comparative Second Quarter Results of Operations
Net sales of K2 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 increased to $301.4 million as compared with $251.0 million in the corresponding period in 2004. Net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $1.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, as compared with $6.2 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2004.
Net Sales. In the Marine and Outdoor segment, net sales increased to $130.4 million in the second quarter of 2005 as compared with $107.8 million in the prior years second quarter. The overall improvement in net sales during 2005 resulted from increased sales of Shakespeare fishing tackle products of $12.0 million, higher sales of Stearns products of $12.2 million, including new sales of Sospenders flotation devices, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2004 and new sales of Hodgman wader products, which was acquired in the second quarter of 2005, partially offset by lower sales of Shakespeare monofilament products of $1.6 million. The increase in sales of Shakespeare fishing tackle products reflected growth in the sales of Pflueger reels, kits and combos, fish line, military antennas and new sales of All-Star rods, which was acquired in the second quarter of 2004. Increased sales of Stearns outdoor products reflected higher demand for rainwear, inflatables and water-ski vests.
Net sales of the Team Sports segment improved to $68.3 million for the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $61.8 million in the prior years second quarter. The improvement was due to higher sales of team apparel of $1.8 million, gloves of $1.5 million, baseballs of $0.8 million, metal softball bats of $0.8 million and new sales of Miken softball bats of $3.3 million, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2004, partially offset by lower sales of K2 Licensed Products of $2.1 million.
In the Action Sports segment, net sales were $65.1 million in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $69.2 million in the prior years second quarter. The overall sales decline was due to lower sales of paintball products of $8.3 million, snowboards of $3.5 million and bikes of $2.2 million, partially offset by net sales from the acquisition of Völkl and Marker in the third quarter of 2004 of $10.7 million. The decline in sales of paintball products reflects soft consumer demand in the industry. In the event that consumer demand continues to remain soft for paintball products, this could have a significant negative impact on net sales, gross profits and operating income in future periods for the Action Sports segment.
32
Net sales of the Apparel and Footwear segment increased to $37.6 million in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $12.2 million in the prior years second quarter. The increase in net sales as compared to 2004 is the result of the acquisitions of Ex Officio on May 12, 2004 and Marmot on June 30, 2004, which had combined net sales of $22.3 million for K2 in the second quarter of 2005, as well as higher sales of skateboard shoes and apparel of $6.1 million. The increase in sales of skateboard shoes and apparel reflects the strong sell through of the Adio shoe brand.
K2s international operations (operating locations outside of the United States) represented $54.3 million, or 18.0% of K2s consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $38.7 million, or 15.4% of K2s consolidated net sales for the prior years second quarter. The increase in net sales from international operations was due to the acquisitions of Marmot and Völkl and Marker in mid-2004, which had 2005 second quarter net sales from international operations of $3.8 million and $9.7 million, respectively, and higher direct shipments out of the K2 China manufacturing facilities of $5.1 million. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of snowboards of $0.8 million and footwear of $1.4 million.
Gross profit. Gross profits for the second quarter of 2005 increased 28.9% to $99.8 million, or 33.1% of net sales, as compared with $77.4 million, or 30.8% of net sales, in the year ago quarter. The improvement in gross profit dollars for the quarter was primarily attributable to the increase in second quarter sales volume and the improvement in gross profit as a percentage of net sales. The improvement in the gross profit percentage was due to higher gross margins in the Team Sports segment as compared to 2004, and higher gross margins in the Apparel and Footwear segment resulting from K2s acquisitions of Ex Officio on May 12, 2004 and Marmot on June 30, 2004.
Costs and Expenses. Selling expenses for the second quarter of 2005 were $54.5 million, or 18.1% of net sales, as compared with $41.6 million, or 16.6% of net sales, in the prior years second quarter. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2005 were $36.9 million, or 12.2% of net sales, as compared with $23.4 million, or 9.3% of net sales, in the prior years second quarter. The increase in selling expenses in dollars was attributable to the increase in sales volume for the second quarter as compared to the prior year and acquisitions completed at the end of or after the second quarter of 2004 by K2 which resulted in additional selling expenses of $11.1 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses in dollars for the second quarter of 2005 was primarily attributable to higher sales volume during the second quarter and acquisitions completed at the end of or after the second quarter of 2004 by K2 which resulted in additional general and administrative expenses of $7.5 million. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased due primarily to the seasonality associated with the acquisitions of Marmot, Völkl and Marker in mid-2004. These acquired companies have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first and second quarters of the year due to having lower sales volume as compared to the third and fourth quarters.
Operating Income. Operating income for the second quarter of 2005 was $8.3 million, or 2.8% of net sales, as compared to operating income of $12.4 million, or 4.9% of net sales, a year ago. The decrease in operating income was due to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as discussed above, partially offset by higher sales volume and gross profit in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to the prior year.
33
K2s international operations (operating locations outside of the United States) had an operating loss of $4.2 million for the second quarter of 2005 as compared with $0.3 million of operating income in the year ago quarter. The operating loss from international operations was attributable to the acquisitions of Marmot, Völkl and Marker in mid-2004. These acquired companies have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first and second quarters of the year due to lower sales volume as compared to the third and fourth quarters.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $7.3 million in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $3.2 million in the year-earlier period. The increase in interest expense for 2005 was primarily attributable to higher average borrowing levels during the second quarter of 2005 as compared to 2004. Borrowings on average were higher in the second quarter of 2005 due to borrowings made to fund acquisitions and the seasonal working capital requirements of businesses acquired at the end of or after the second quarter of 2004.
Income Taxes. During the second quarter of 2005, the effective income tax rate was 33.3% as compared to 34.0% during the second quarter of 2004. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to a greater percentage of income being taxed in relatively lower tax jurisdictions as a result of K2s acquisitions completed at the end of or after the second quarter of 2004.
Comparative Six-Month Results of Operations
Net sales of K2 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased to $619.7 million as compared with $528.4 million in the year-earlier period. Net income for the first six months of 2005 was $3.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared with $16.9 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2004.
Net Sales. In the Marine and Outdoor segment, net sales increased to $242.8 million in the first six months of 2005 as compared with $206.6 million in the prior years first six months. The overall improvement in net sales during 2005 resulted from increased sales of Shakespeare fishing tackle products of $21.4 million, higher sales of Stearns products of $17.9 million, including new sales of Sospenders flotation devices, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2004 and new sales of Hodgman wader products, which was acquired in the second quarter of 2005, partially offset by lower sales of Shakespeare monofilament products of $3.1 million. The increase in sales of Shakespeare fishing tackle products reflected growth in the sales of Pflueger reels, kits and combos, fish line, military antennas and new sales of All-Star rods, which was acquired in the second quarter of 2004. Increased sales of Stearns outdoor products reflected higher demand for childrens flotation products, water-ski vests, inflatables, rainwear and ATV accessories.
Net sales of the Team Sports segment improved to $160.9 million for the first six months of 2005 as compared to $155.9 million in the prior years first six months. The improvement was due to higher sales of team apparel of $1.7 million, baseballs of $1.0 million, gloves of $1.0 million, and new sales of Miken softball bats of $7.5 million, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2004, partially offset by lower sales of metal softball bats of $2.9 million, basketballs of $0.8 million and K2 Licensed Products of $1.6 million.
34
In the Action Sports segment, net sales increased to $145.5 million in the first six months of 2005 as compared to $144.2 million in the prior years first six months. The increase is primarily the result of $34.4 million in 2005 first six months net sales resulting from the acquisitions of Völkl and Marker in July 2004, partially offset by lower sales of paintball products of $13.9 million, in-line skates of $9.2 million, snowboards of $5.6 million, bikes of $1.6 million and snowshoes of $1.2 million. The decline in sales of paintball products and in-line skates reflects soft consumer demand in the industry. In the event that consumer demand continues to remain soft for paintball products of 2005, this trend could have a significant negative impact on net sales, gross profits and operating income in future periods for the Action Sports segment.
Net sales of the Apparel and Footwear segment improved to $70.5 million in the first six months of 2005 as compared to $21.7 million in the prior years first six months. The increase in net sales from 2004 is the result of the acquisitions of Ex Officio in May 2004 and Marmot on June 30, 2004 which had combined net sales of $41.6 million for K2 in the first six months of 2005, as well as higher sales of skateboard shoes and apparel of $10.1 million. The increase in sales of skateboard shoes and apparel reflects the strong sell through of the Adio shoe brand.
K2s international operations (operating locations outside of the United States) represented $129.8 million, or 20.9% of K2s consolidated net sales for the first six months of 2005 as compared to $99.9 million, or 18.9% of K2s consolidated net sales for the first six months of 2004. The increase in net sales from international operations was due to the acquisitions of Marmot and Völkl and Marker in mid-2004 which had 2005 first six months net sales from international operations of $7.8 million and $28.4 million, respectively, and higher direct shipments out of the K2 China manufacturing facilities of $6.5 million. These increases were partially offset by lower sales of in-line skates of $7.3 million, snowboards of $2.6 million and footwear of $2.1 million.
Gross profit. Gross profits for the first six months of 2005 increased 23.5% to $202.6 million, or 32.7% of net sales, as compared with $164.0 million, or 31.0% of net sales, in the year ago period. The improvement in gross profit dollars for the 2005 period was attributable to the increase in sales volume for the first six months of 2005 as compared to 2004, and an increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales. The improvement in the gross profit percentage was primarily due to higher gross margins in the Team Sports segment as compared to 2004 and higher gross margin product sales resulting from K2s acquisitions completed during or after the 2004 second quarter, particularly the acquisitions of Marmot and Ex Officio in the Apparel and Footwear segment.
Costs and Expenses. Selling expenses for the first six months of 2005 were $113.2 million, or 18.3% of net sales, as compared with $83.6 million, or 15.8% of net sales, in the prior years first six months. General and administrative expenses for the first six months of 2005 were $71.0 million, or 11.5% of net sales, as compared with $48.4 million, or 9.2% of net sales, in the prior years first six months. The increase in selling expenses in dollars was attributable to the increase in sales volume for the first six months of 2005 as compared to the prior year and acquisitions completed at the end of or after the second quarter of 2004 by K2 which resulted in additional selling expenses of $25.7 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses in dollars for the first six months of 2005 was primarily attributable to higher sales volume during the first six months of 2005 and acquisitions
35
completed at the end of or after the second quarter of 2004 by K2 which resulted in additional general and administrative expenses of $14.5 million. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased due to the seasonality associated with the acquisitions of Marmot, Völkl and Marker in mid-2004. These acquired companies have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first and second quarters of the year due to having lower sales volume as compared to the third and fourth quarters.
Operating Income. Operating income for the first six months of 2005 was $18.4 million, or 3.0% of net sales, as compared to operating income of $32.0 million, or 6.1% of net sales, a year ago. The decrease in operating income was due to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as discussed above, partially offset by higher sales volume and gross profit in the first six months of 2005 as compared to the prior year.
K2s international operations (operating locations outside of the United States) had an operating loss of $4.0 million for the first six months of 2005 as compared with operating income of $4.7 million for the first six months of 2004. The operating loss for the 2005 six months as compared to operating income in the 2004 period was attributable to the acquisitions of Marmot, Völkl and Marker in mid-2004. These acquired companies have higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first and second quarters of the year due to lower sales volume as compared to the third and fourth quarters. In addition, operating income from international operations declined due to lower sales of in-line skates and snowboards.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $14.5 million in the first six months of 2005 as compared to $6.5 million in the year-earlier period. The increase in interest expense for 2005 was primarily attributable to higher average borrowing levels during the first six months of 2005 as compared to 2004. Borrowings on average were higher in the first six months of 2005 due to borrowings made to fund acquisitions and the seasonal working capital requirements of businesses acquired during 2004.
Income Taxes. During the first six months of 2005, the effective income tax rate was 33.2% as compared to 34.0% during the first six months of 2004. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to a greater percentage of income being taxed in relatively lower tax jurisdictions as a result of K2s acquisitions completed during 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flow Activity
K2s operating activities provided $42.3 million of cash in the first six months of 2005 as compared to $57.0 million in the first six months of 2004. The decrease in cash from operations during 2005 was primarily attributable to the decline in net income of $13.1 million and a smaller decrease in deferred taxes of $5.3 million during the first six months of 2005 as compared to 2004, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expenses of $4.5 million. The decline in net income during the first six months of 2005 was attributable to lower operating income and higher interest expense as compared to the first six months of 2004 as discussed above.
36
Net cash used for investing activities was $29.9 million in the first six months of 2005, as compared to $47.8 million of cash used for investing activities in the prior year. The decrease in cash used in investing activities during 2005 was due to $13.6 million less cash used in the purchase of businesses in the first six months of 2005 as compared to 2004, partially offset by higher capital expenditures of $3.0 million in the first six months of 2005. There were no material commitments for capital expenditures at June 30, 2005.
Net cash used in financing activities was $16.6 million in the first six months of 2005 as compared with $12.2 million of cash used in the corresponding year-ago period. The increase in cash used in financing activities during the 2005 period was due to lower proceeds received from stock option exercises of $3.7 million.
Capital Structure and Resources
K2s principal long-term borrowing facility is a $250.0 million revolving credit facility, secured by all of K2s assets in the United States, Canada and England. Total availability under the credit facility is determined by a borrowing formula based on eligible trade receivables and inventory and defined advance rates. The credit facility is expandable to $350.0 million and has a $100.0 million limit for the issuance of letters of credit. The credit facility expires on July 1, 2009. At June 30, 2005, there were $73.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the credit facility, $20.5 million of outstanding letter of credit issuances (consisting of $13.7 million of standby letters of credit and $6.8 million of trade letters of credit which expire over the next 12 months) and $135.1 million of available borrowing capacity. At June 30, 2005, K2 also had outstanding $25.0 million of 7.25% convertible subordinated debentures due March 2010, $75.0 million of 5.00% convertible senior debentures due June 2010 and $200.0 million of senior notes due July 2014. At June 30, 2005, K2 had $27.1 million outstanding under various foreign lending arrangements.
On March 18, 2005, K2 obtained an amendment to its credit facility allowing K2 to make up to $50.0 million in repurchases of K2 common stock provided that unused borrowing availability under the facility is at least $50.0 million after such repurchases.
On July 25, 2005, K2 also obtained an amendment to its credit facility allowing K2 to issue up to $100.0 million in unsecured notes, subject to the approval of the administrative agent, provided the issuance is completed within 365 days and the net proceeds are used to repay borrowings outstanding under the credit facility.
K2 believes that the credit available under the credit facility, together with cash flow from operations will be sufficient for K2s business needs through June 30, 2006. K2s ability to arrange debt financing from other sources, should such additional financing become necessary, could be limited by the fact that substantially all of K2s assets in the United States, Canada and England are subject to security interests pursuant to the credit facility. In addition, K2s $200.0 million of senior notes due July 2014 and 5.00% convertible senior debentures due June 2010 place limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness by K2.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
K2 did not enter into any off-balance sheet arrangements during 2005 or 2004, nor did K2 have any off-balance sheet arrangements outstanding at June 30, 2005 or December 31, 2004.
Critical Accounting Policies
K2s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon K2s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements
38
requires K2 to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.
Discussed below are several significant accounting policies, which require the use of judgments and estimates that may materially affect the consolidated financial statements.
The estimates described below are reviewed from time to time and are subject to change if the circumstances so indicate. The effect of any such change is reflected in results of operations for the period in which the change is made. Establishment of the reserves affecting inventories and the allowance for doubtful accounts are among the most important.
Revenue Recognition
K2 recognizes revenue from product sales when title passes and the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. Title passes generally upon shipment or upon receipt by the customer depending on the country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. In some instances, products are shipped directly from K2 suppliers to K2 customers and revenue is recognized when the product is delivered to and accepted by the customer or a representative of the customer. K2 revenues may fluctuate in cases when our customers delay accepting shipment of product for periods up to several weeks. Reserves for estimated returns are established based upon historical return rates and recorded as reductions of sales.
Warranty
K2 records the estimated cost of product warranties at the time sales are recognized. K2 estimates warranty obligation by reference to historical product warranty return rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting the product. Should actual product warranty return rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the historical rates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.
Accounts Receivable and Allowances
Accounts receivable are the result of K2s worldwide sales activities. Although K2s credit risk is spread across a large number of customers within a wide geographic area, periodic concentrations within a specific industry occur due to the seasonality of its businesses and with certain customers as the result of K2s acquisition activities. K2 generally does not require collateral but performs periodic credit evaluations to manage its credit risk.
39
K2 evaluates the collectibility of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In circumstances where there is knowledge of a specific customers inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific reserve is recorded against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount that is reasonably believed to be collected. For all other customers, reserves are established based on historical bad debts, customer payment patterns and current economic conditions. The establishment of these reserves requires the use of judgment and assumptions regarding the potential for losses on receivable balances. If the financial condition of K2s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments to K2, additional allowances may be required.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is substantially determined by the first-in, first-out method, including material, labor and factory overhead. K2 records adjustments to its inventory for estimated obsolescence or diminution in market value equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value, based on market conditions from time to time. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from actual experience if future economic conditions, levels of consumer demand, customer inventory levels or competitive conditions differ from expectations.
Long-Lived and Finite Lived Intangible Assets
Purchased intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, ranging from one to eleven years.
Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment and purchased intangible assets with finite lives, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. K2 assesses the fair value of the assets based on the future cash flow the assets are expected to generate and recognizes an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flow expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. When an impairment is identified, K2 reduces the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate, comparable market values. K2 determined there were no indicators of material impairment of long-lived assets as of June 30, 2005.
K2 has evaluated the remaining useful lives of its finite-lived purchased intangible assets to determine if any adjustments to the useful lives were necessary or if any of these assets had indefinite lives and were therefore not subject to amortization. K2 determined that no adjustments to the useful lives of its finite-lived purchased intangible assets were necessary. The finite-lived purchased intangible assets consist of patents, customer contracts and customer lists, licensing agreements, tradenames/trademarks and non-compete arrangements which at June 30, 2005 have weighted average useful lives of approximately 8 years, 8 years, 5 years, 7 years and 4 years, respectively.
40
Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but instead are measured for impairment at least annually, or when events indicate that a likely impairment exists. The impairment tests for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. Specifically, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a K2 reporting unit with the net book value (or carrying amount), including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting units goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, accordingly the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit. The impairment test for other intangible assets consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit under the first step of the goodwill impairment test and determining the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reporting unit under the second step of the goodwill impairment test is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether or not an impairment charge is recognized and also the extent of such charge. K2s estimates of fair value utilized in goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible asset tests may be based upon a number of factors, including assumptions about the projected future cash flows, discount rate, growth rate, determination of market comparables, technological change, economic conditions, or changes to K2s business operations. Such changes may result in impairment charges recorded in future periods.
K2 determined in accordance with SFAS No. 142 that K2s segments meet the criteria for aggregation and therefore performed its analysis at the reporting segment level. The fair value of K2s reporting units was determined using a combination of the income approach and the market approach. Under the income approach, the fair value of a reporting unit is calculated based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. The present value of estimated future cash flows uses K2s estimates of revenue for the reporting units, driven by assumed market growth rates and assumed market segment share, and estimated costs as well as appropriate discount rates. These estimates are consistent with the plans and estimates that K2 uses to manage the underlying businesses. Under the market approach, fair value is estimated based on market multiples of revenue or earnings for comparable companies.
41
In performing the fiscal 2004 annual test for the Marine and Outdoor segment, K2 assumed a sales growth rate of 5%; gross profit margins of 37%; an income tax rate of 35%; and a discount rate of 12%. For the Team Sports segment, K2 assumed a sales growth rate of 3%; gross profit margins ranging from 34% to 36%; an income tax rate of 35%; and a discount rate of 12%. For the Action Sports segment, K2 assumed a sales growth rate of 5%; gross profit margins of 34%; an income tax rate of 35%; and a discount rate of 12%. For the Apparel and Footwear segment, K2 assumed a sales growth rate of 5%; gross profit margins of 40%; an income tax rate of 35%; and a discount rate of 12%. Based on the results of the annual impairment tests, K2 determined that no impairment of goodwill existed as of December 31, 2004. However, future goodwill impairment tests could result in a charge to earnings. K2 will continue to evaluate goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles on an annual basis and whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that there may be a potential impairment.
K2 considered the recent softness in consumer demand for paintball products within its Action Sports segment and has determined that no indicators of impairment existed at June 30, 2005 with respect to certain indefinite and finite-lived intangibles. In the event consumer demand continues to remain soft for paintball products, K2 may be required to record an impairment charge in future periods related to indefinite and finite-lived intangibles within the Action Sports segment.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are recorded using the liability method. K2 estimates actual current tax exposure together with temporary differences that result from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. K2 then assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and to the extent that recovery is unlikely, a valuation allowance must be established. A significant portion of K2s deferred tax assets relate to net operating loss carryovers for both domestic and foreign purposes. The realization of these assets is based upon estimates of future taxable income. In those jurisdictions where the realization of these carryovers is not likely, a valuation allowance has been established.
Pensions
K2 sponsors several trusteed non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering about 850 of its domestic employees. Benefits are generally based on years of service and the employees highest average compensation for five consecutive years during the years of credited service. Contributions are intended to provide for benefits attributable to service to date and service expected to be provided in the future. K2 funds these plans in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
Effective August 31, 2004, the domestic pension plans (the plans) were amended to freeze the accrual of future benefits for almost all of the employees. This resulted in active participants no longer accruing benefits under the plans. Participants will remain eligible to receive benefits they have earned under the plans through August 31, 2004 when they retire. New employees will not be eligible to accrue any benefit under the plans. Only a small group of about 20 employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement will continue to accrue benefits. The impact of this change to the plans on K2s benefit costs was a one-time recognized curtailment loss of $353,000 in the 2004 third quarter. The impact on future benefit costs is the elimination of the service cost and an $8.0 million
42
reduction of the projected benefit obligation for future pay increases. This change to the plans has further resulted in an estimated reduction in net periodic pension costs for the 2005 year of $2.8 million.
Pension costs and liabilities are actuarially calculated. These calculations are based on assumptions related to the discount rate, projected compensation increases and expected return on assets. The discount rate assumption is based on current market interest rates of long-term bonds as of December 31, 2004. There is no salary growth assumption for the future due to the freezing of the plans on August 31, 2004, whereby no additional benefits will accrue. Long-term return on plan assets is determined based on historical portfolio results and managements future expectations for returns for each asset class, as well as the target asset allocation of the pension portfolio. K2 evaluates the assumptions used on a periodic basis and makes adjustments as necessary. As of December 31, 2003, K2s assumption related to the discount rate, projected compensation increases and expected return on assets was 6.25%, 4.00% and 8.25%, respectively. Due to the declining interest rate environment for long-term bonds in 2004, K2 lowered its discount rate assumption to 5.75% at December 31, 2004. A continued change in the discount rate and actual vs. expected return on plan assets could have a significant impact on the pension costs recorded.
Due to the lower discount rate and declines in the stock market during 2002, actual asset returns on K2s pension assets did not meet K2s original assumption of 2003 expected returns. This resulted in 2003 pension expense being higher than 2002 pension expense by approximately $2.1 million. Pension expense for the 2004 year was approximately $0.1 million lower than the 2003 year. The 2004 decrease in pension expense was attributable to: the plan freeze on August 31, 2004 resulting in a reduction in expense of approximately $0.6 million; better than expected 2003 asset returns resulting in a reduction to expense of approximately $0.3 million; all of which were offset by an increase in pension expense of approximately $0.8 million due to changes in assumptions regarding the discount rate, expected return on assets, mortality rates, administrative expenses and changes in participant demographics. For 2005, pension expense is estimated to be approximately $0.6 million, a reduction of $2.7 million from the 2004 year. This decrease in overall expense is expected to result from the following: a $0.2 million decrease in expense due to better than expected asset returns during 2004; a $2.8 million decrease in expense due to the freezing of the plan during 2004; all of which are expected to be offset by a $0.3 million increase in pension expense due to the decrease in the discount rate from 6.25% to 5.75% at December 31, 2004.
K2s expected cash contribution to its plans in 2005 is $5.7 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, K2 made contributions totaling approximately $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, to the plans.
Based on the decrease in the discount rate and lower expected asset returns, the accumulated benefit obligation of the plans exceeded the fair value of the assets of the plans by $22.5 million and $15.6 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These asset shortfalls resulted in K2 recording a non-cash charge to Other Comprehensive Income, a component of K2s shareholders equity, of $14.5 million ($9.4 million, net of taxes) at December 31, 2004. Based on this amount recorded, K2 had $22.5 million and $15.2 million, of net pension liabilities as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, consisting of $22.5 and $15.6 million, respectively, in asset shortfalls and an intangible asset for the unrecognized prior service cost of $0.4 million at December 31, 2003. As of June 30, 2005
43
and December 31, 2004, K2 classified $4.2 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of the pension liability as current and $16.8 million as long-term.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency for most foreign operations is the local currency. The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries have been translated into U.S. dollars. Asset and liability accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expense accounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the period. The gains and losses associated with the translation of the financial statements resulting from the changes in exchange rates from period to period have been reported in the other comprehensive income or loss account in shareholders equity. To the extent assets and liabilities of the foreign operations are realized or the foreign operations pay back intercompany debt, amounts previously reported in other comprehensive income or loss account would be included in net income or loss in the period in which the transaction occurs. Transaction gains or losses, other than those related to intercompany accounts and investments deemed to be of a long-term nature, are included in net income or loss in the period in which they occur.
Other Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, K2 is involved in legal proceedings regarding contractual and employment relationships, product liability claims, environmental matters, intellectual property rights, and a variety of other matters. K2 records contingent liabilities resulting from claims when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple factors, in some cases including judgments about the potential actions of third party claimants and courts. Therefore, actual losses in any future period are inherently uncertain. Currently, K2 does not believe that any of its pending legal proceedings or claims will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. However, if actual or estimated probable future losses exceed K2s recorded liability for such claims, additional charges would be recorded as an expense during the period in which the actual loss or change in estimate occurred.
In January 2004, Rawlings was sued by a licensee in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine in connection with a license agreement pursuant to which the licensee was granted an exclusive license to use certain Rawlings trademarks for the manufacture and sale of team and personal sporting-equipment bags. This lawsuit was later transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. In February 2004, Rawlings gave the licensee notice that it was terminating the license agreement and sued the licensee in the Missouri District Court, in which Rawlings alleged, among other things, that the licensee breached the license agreement by failing to use its best efforts. This license agreement was in place prior to the March 26, 2003 acquisition of Rawlings by K2 Inc. Accordingly, during 2004, K2 established liabilities totaling $3.5 million for the estimated probable settlement or verdict on the matter.
On April 29, 2005, a jury awarded the licensee (1) $4.1 million for a claim of lost profits for the next ten years on sales of equipment bags, plus the value of inventory of such bags (the 10-Year Lost Profits Verdict), (2) $2.1 million for lost profits of equipment bags beginning ten years from the date of the breach of the agreement through forever (the Speculative Profits Verdict) and (3)
44
$2.5 million for K2s alleged tortious interference with the licensees business expectations (the Tortious Interference Verdict) between Rawlings and the licensee, and the Missouri District Court ruled that the licensee was not permitted to bring certain claims to the jury. Following trial, the licensee filed a motion to recover approximately $0.6 million in attorneys fees and costs this motion is currently pending. Following the verdict, K2 established an additional $1.2 million in liabilities for a total of approximately $4.7 million in liabilities related to this litigation, including estimated legal fees and costs of licensees attorneys.
On May 19, 2005, K2 and Rawlings (the Litigants) have filed a motion for new trial with respect to the 10-Year Lost Profits Verdict and a motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict with respect to the Speculative Profits Verdict and the Tortious Interference Verdict. On July 27, 2005, the Missouri District (1) denied the Litigants motion for a new trial in respect of the $4.1 million 10-Year Lost Profits Verdict, (2) granted the Litigants motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict with respect to the $2.1 million Speculative Profits Verdict and (3) denied the Litigants motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict for the $2.5 million Tortious Interference Verdict. The only matter that remains open for the Missouri District Court is the licensees motion for approximately $0.6 million in attorneys fees and costs. Accordingly, there is currently a judgment against the Litigants for approximately $6.8 million.
The Litigants intend to vigorously prosecute an appeal. K2 believes, in part based on advice and estimates from outside counsel as follows: that certain portions of the Missouri District Courts decision are not supported by facts or law; that there are meritorious arguments to be raised during the appeals process because, among other things, a lack of evidence to support certain aspects of the verdict; and that the Litigants aggregate exposure, including attorneys fees and costs of license, to be approximately $4.7 million. In connection with the appeal, the Litigants will be required by Missouri law to post bond in the amount of approximately $6.8 million. In the event that the Litigants are unsuccessful in their appeal and the amount of the judgment, including the fees and costs of attorneys for licensee, is greater than $4.7 million, or the outcome of an amount greater than $4.7 million becomes probable and estimable, K2 will be required to record an expense in the period in which the matter is finalized. However, this expense could be higher if the appeals court ruled in favor of the licensee for certain claims on which it is expected that licensee will appeal. The appeal process is expected to take one to two years.
Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Disclosure
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause the results of K2 and its consolidated subsidiaries to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements, including any projections of net sales, gross margin, expenses, earnings or losses from operations, synergies or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning developments, performance or industry rankings relating to products; any statements regarding future economic conditions or
45
performance; any statements of expectation or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. The risks, uncertainties and assumptions referred to above include to successfully execute its acquisition plans and growth strategy, integration of acquired businesses, weather conditions, consumer spending, continued success of manufacturing in the Peoples Republic of China, global economic conditions, including U.S.-Sino relations, product demand, including demand for paintball products for which there has been softness for the six months ended June 30,2005, financial market performance, foreign currency fluctuations and other risks that are described herein, including but not limited to the items described from time to time in K2s Securities Exchange Act reports including K2s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2004. K2 cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive, any forward-looking statements included in this report are made as of the date of filing of this report with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and K2 assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.
ITEM 3 | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
K2 is exposed to a variety of risks. Two of these risks are foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates that affect interest expense.
Foreign Currency and Derivatives
K2 is exposed to gains and losses resulting from the effect that fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can have on the reported results in the consolidated financial statements due to the translation of the operating results and financial position of K2s international subsidiaries. K2 manages its exposures to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on certain firm purchase commitments and anticipated, but not yet committed purchases, by entering into some foreign currency forward contracts. K2s risk management objective is to reduce its exposure to the effects of changes in exchange rates on the cost of products sold over annual time horizons. Foreign currency exchange rate movements also affect K2s competitive position, as exchange rate changes may affect business practices and/or pricing strategies of non-U.S. based competitors and may affect the profitability and pricing strategies of K2 as well. K2s foreign currency risk policies entail entering into foreign currency derivative instruments only to manage risk of currency fluctuations over a given period of time, not for speculative investments. At June 30, 2005, K2 had foreign exchange contracts with maturities of within one year to exchange various foreign currencies to dollars in the aggregate amount of $33.4 million.
A majority of K2s products are either manufactured in K2s China manufacturing facility or sourced from Chinese suppliers which requires the use of Chinese Yuan Renminbi (Yuan) as the form of payment for labor, raw materials, supplies, overhead, transportation and facilities costs. In July 2005, the Chinese government announced that it would let the Yuans value float relative to other currencies within a narrow band and increased the Yuans value versus the U.S. Dollar by two percent. Should the Yuan continue to strengthen against the U.S. dollar, this could have a negative impact on K2s future results of operations in the event K2 is unable to pass on the impact of the rising costs to its customers.
46
Considering both the anticipated cash flows from firm purchase commitments and anticipated purchases for the next quarter and the foreign currency derivative instruments in place at year end, a hypothetical 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies would not materially adversely affect expected third quarter 2005 earnings or cash flows. This analysis is dependent on actual purchases during the next quarter occurring within 90% of budgeted forecasts. The effect of the hypothetical change in exchange rates ignores the effect this movement may have on other variables including competitive risk. If it were possible to quantify this competitive impact, the results could well be different than the sensitivity effects shown above. In addition, it is unlikely currencies would uniformly strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar. In reality, some currencies may weaken while others may strengthen. Moreover, any negative effect of a weakening U.S. dollar in terms of increase materials costs would likely be partially offset by a positive impact on revenues due to K2s sales internationally and the conversion of those international sales to U.S. dollars.
Interest Rates
K2 is also exposed to interest rate risk in connection with its borrowings under the revolving bank credit facility and term loan which bear interest at floating rates based on London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the prime rate plus an applicable borrowing margin. For the $100.0 million of convertible subordinated debentures, interest rate changes affect the fair market value but do not impact earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant.
As of June 30, 2005, K2 had $300.0 million in principal amount of fixed rate debt represented by the convertible subordinated debentures and senior notes and $100.1 million of variable rate debt represented by borrowings under the revolving credit facilities and foreign credit lines. Based on the balance outstanding under the variable rate facilities as of June 30, 2005, an immediate change of one percentage point in the applicable interest rate would have caused an increase or decrease in interest expense of approximately $1.0 million on an annual basis. At June 30, 2005, up to $135.1 million of variable rate borrowings were available under K2s $250.0 million revolving bank credit facility. K2 may use derivative financial instruments, where appropriate, to manage its interest rate risks. However, as a matter of policy, K2 does not enter into derivative or other financial investments for trading or speculative purposes. At June 30, 2005, K2 had no such derivative financial instruments outstanding.
ITEM 4 | Controls and Procedures |
K2 maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in K2s reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to K2s management, including K2s Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
47
