4. Long-term Obligations and Interest, net
The Company maintains two secured long-term credit facilities: a $100 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility) and a £15.0 million ($27.2 million) revolving facility and related overdraft facility (collectively, the UK Facility).
Net of outstanding letters of credit and limitations on Minimum Availability, the Company had borrowing capacity at March 31, 2004, of $11.6 million under the Revolving Facility and £11.9 million ($21.7 million) under the UK Facility. The Company made no borrowings under the Revolving Facility or the UK Facility at any time during the first quarter of 2004 and as of March 31, 2004, no borrowings were outstanding under either facility. As of March 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of each of these agreements.
In March 1998, the Company sold $200.0 million principal amount of senior unsecured debt in an underwritten offering. The debt comprised $100.0 million of 6.875% seven-year notes and $100.0 million of 7.00% ten-year notes. Interest payments are due semi-annually. Including underwriting fees, discounts and other issuance costs, the effective interest rates on the seven-year and ten-year notes are 7.125% and 7.175%, respectively. As of March 31, 2004 the $100.0 million seven-year notes, maturing in March 2005, are classified as current portion of long-term obligations on the Companys consolidated balance sheet.
The Company additionally has outstanding $8.5 million of 3.21% industrial revenue bonds, maturing in July 2005.

The Company also has letter-of-credit reimbursement agreements primarily related to the Companys performance on contracts with customers totaling $26.4 million at March 31, 2004.

In the fourth quarter of 2002, as a result of the continued economic downturn in the global automotive, aerospace and heavy equipment industries, the Company initiated a plan to consolidate its Cincinnati Machine, Lamb Machining Systems and Lamb Body & Assembly Systems divisions into the new operating entity, Cincinnati Lamb. The plan included the relocation of certain Cincinnati Machine operations, outsourcing of certain manufacturing activities, termination of employees, and the sale of certain plant and equipment. This restructuring, which was substantially completed by December 31, 2003, resulted in fourth quarter 2002 charges for severance of $14.7 million for the planned termination of 683 employees, early retirement of $4.2 million for 42 employees, and plant closure costs of $0.4 million. The related analysis of long-lived assets to be disposed of resulted in a fourth quarter 2002 non-cash impairment charge of $4.2 million to write down property, plant and equipment to the lower of its carrying value or estimated fair value less cost to sell (net realizable value). During the year ended December 31, 2003, in conjunction with the above described restructuring plan, IAS recorded severance charges of $2.1 million for an additional 165 employees and $2.1 million for other plant closure costs. The related analysis of long-lived assets to be disposed of resulted in the non-cash impairment charge of $4.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 to write down property, plant and equipment to the lower of its carrying value or estimated net realizable value. The fair value of long-lived assets to be disposed of was estimated based on the current market value of similar assets.
In the first quarter 2004, IAS recorded additional charges of $0.3 million for additional facility consolidation costs and $0.1 million for impairment of property, plant and equipment in conjunction with this plan. As of March 31, 2004, the IAS segment had terminated 787 employees and paid $16.6 million in severance, cumulatively, in conjunction with this plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, 103 employees were terminated and $3.3 million of severance was paid in conjunction with this plan. The number of employees terminated does not include 228 employees of Lamb Body & Assembly that are no longer IAS employees as a result of the divestiture of this operation in September 2003.
Corporate: During the third quarter 2002, the Company initiated a plan to relocate its corporate office to its existing Intermec Technologies Corporation facility in Everett, Washington. This action, which was substantially complete as of June 30, 2003, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 19 employees totaling $2.0 million and other facility closure costs of $3.2 million in the third quarter 2002. In the fourth quarter 2002, an additional accrual was recorded for facility closure costs of $1.2 million. Additional charges of $1.7 million for facility move and employee relocation expenses were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2003. As of March 31, 2004, 22 employees had been terminated and $0.6 million in severance costs had been paid, cumulatively, of which 2 employee terminations and $0.2 million in severance payments occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2004. During the three months ending March 31, 2004 $1.4 million of the workforce reduction accrual, relating to certain pension obligations for certain individuals affected by the restructuring plan, was reclassified to other long-term liabilities. The corporate restructuring accrual as of March 31, 2004 of $2.1 million represents ongoing leased facility costs.

6. Loss from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax
During the third quarter 2003, in conjunction with the consolidation plan described in Note 4, the Company sold substantially all the assets and existing backlog of its Lamb Body & Assembly Systems division for approximately the book value of the divested assets. The Company received $12.8 million in 2003 and $2.5 million in April 2004 and retained $9.9 million in accounts payable. The division meets the definition of a component of an entity and has been accounted for as a discontinued operation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, (SFAS No. 144). The Companys consolidated statement of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 has been restated to present this division as discontinued operations for comparative purposes.
Sales and service revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $9.7 million. There was no revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The loss and related tax effect from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were not material. Losses from discontinued operations were $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Losses from discontinued operations did not have a tax effect for the three months ended March 31, 2003, as the Companys domestic income tax benefits for the quarter was offset by a corresponding valuation allowance.
The Companys consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2004 includes $5.2 million in current assets, including $1.8 million of net property, plant and equipment classified as assets held for sale, and $7.5 million in current liabilities pertaining to discontinued operations. The Companys consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 includes $3.7 million in current assets, including $1.8 million of assets held for sale, and $7.0 million in current liabilities pertaining to discontinued operations.
7. Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for three months ended March 31, 2004, is primarily related to federal, state and foreign taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2003, is primarily related to foreign and state taxes, as the domestic tax benefit for the quarter is offset by a corresponding valuation allowance.
8. Earnings (Loss) per Share and Shareholders Investment
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and issuable for the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using basic weighted average shares plus the dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock and outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method.

Because the Company reported a net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003, stock options and unvested restricted shares are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation as their effect would have been antidilutive. Company employees and directors held options to purchase 5,535,025 shares of Company common stock as of March 31, 2003. Also, Company employees held a weighted average of 378,017 unvested restricted shares for the three month period ended March 31, 2003.

The Company has entered into a variety of agreements with third parties that include indemnification clauses, both in the ordinary course of business and in connection with our divestitures of certain product lines. These clauses require us to compensate these third parties for certain liabilities and damages incurred by them. FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others requires that the Company estimate and record the fair value of guarantees as a liability. The Company has not made any significant indemnification payments as a result of these clauses, nor does it believe the fair value of any of these guarantees has a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
The Company is currently, and is from time to time, subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of the Companys General Counsel, the ultimate resolution of currently pending proceedings, with the potential exception of one case discussed below, will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Tower Automotive Products Co. v. Lamb Technicon Body and Assembly is a lawsuit filed on March 11, 2002 in the Kent County Circuit Court in Michigan, generally alleging a breach of contract involving a frame assembly production line. No specific claim for damages has been made by Tower Automotive Products Co. The Company has responded to the Complaint. A trial date has been scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2004. Management believes the lawsuit is without merit and is vigorously contesting the case. Nevertheless, should there be an unfavorable result it is possible that cash flows or results of operations could be materially affected in that period or subsequent periods.

15. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 106-1, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act). FSP 106-1 permits a sponsor of a postretirement health care plan that provides a prescription drug benefit to make a one-time election to defer accounting for the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. Regardless of whether a sponsor elects that deferral, certain disclosures are required pending further consideration of the underlying accounting issues. FSP 106-1 is effective for interim or annual financial statements of fiscal years ending after December 7, 2003. The Company elected to defer accounting for the effects of the Act on the Companys postretirement healthcare plans. Accordingly, any measures of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO) or net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the Companys consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes do not reflect the effects of the Act. Specific authoritative guidance on the accounting for the federal subsidy is pending and that guidance, when issued, could require the Company to change previously reported information.
In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits. The revised statement retains the disclosure requirements contained in SFAS No. 132, which it replaces, and requires additional disclosures about the assets, obligations, cash flows and net periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans. Except as noted below, the provisions of this statement are effective for the Companys financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003. The interim period disclosure requirements of the statement became effective for the Companys interim financial statements for the quarter ending March 31, 2004, and are included in Note 14. The statements disclosure requirements relating to estimated future benefit payments and relating to foreign plans are effective for the Companys financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Sales and Service Revenues
Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2004, were $297.7 million, an increase of $33.7 million, or 12.8%, compared with the corresponding prior year period. The Company received compensation related to a settlement regarding certain of its intellectual property (IP settlements) which resulted in a significant, positive impact on the Companys revenues and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, products and service revenue increased approximately $14.0 million, or 5.3%, compared with the corresponding prior year period. The related products and service operating profit increased $5.4 million from the prior year comparable period.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of sales and service increased $7.9 million, or 4.2%, to $195.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $187.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Cost of sales and service as a percentage of sales decreased to 65.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2004, compared with 70.9% for the comparable period in 2003. The improvement in gross margin was primarily due to the impact of the IP settlement in the first quarter of 2004, a 3.2 percentage point improvement in ADS gross margins and the change in revenue mix toward a higher proportion of ADS products and services compared with the same
13
quarter of 2003. ADS product and service revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 represents 62.3% of total UNOVA product and service revenue compared with 61.7% in the corresponding prior year period.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $78.6 million and $76.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase of $2.3 million from the prior year period is primarily due to a $4.3 million increase in ADS research and development expense and a $2.9 million increase in SG&A expense due to the growth in ADS products and service revenues. Other ADS SG&A expense as a percentage of sales during the first quarter of 2004, which includes a reduction of approximately $1.3 million in certain liability accounts established in prior periods, was consistent with the comparable prior year quarter. The increase in SG&A expense within ADS was partially offset by the efficiencies resulting from the IAS restructuring and a $3.5 million reduction in corporate and other unallocated expenses resulting from the absence of loan termination expense, a favorable litigation outcome and the cost benefits received from transitioning the corporate headquarters to Everett. As a result of these factors and the IP settlement in the first quarter of 2004, SG&A as a percentage of total sales and service revenues decreased to 26.4% for the first quarter of 2004 compared to 28.9% for the corresponding prior year period.
Depreciation and Amortization
The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $2.0 million to $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $6.8 million from the corresponding prior year period is primarily due to lower property, plant and equipment balances resulting from sales of IAS property, plant and equipment and the classification of certain assets as held for sale. In addition, during the third quarter 2003 in conjunction with the IAS restructuring, property, plant and equipment with a net book value of $30.0 million was reclassified to assets held for sale and depreciation on the assets was terminated.
Special Charges
The following table and discussion describe the restructuring activities the Company initiated in 2002, which resulted in charges for severance, facility consolidation, impairment of long-lived assets including goodwill and loss on sale of business, classified as special charges on the consolidated statements of operations (millions of dollars):

IAS Segment: In the fourth quarter of 2002, as a result of the continued economic downturn in the global automotive, aerospace and heavy equipment industries, the Company initiated a plan to consolidate its Cincinnati Machine, Lamb Machining Systems and Lamb Body & Assembly Systems divisions into the new operating entity, Cincinnati Lamb. The plan included the relocation of certain Cincinnati Machine operations, outsourcing of certain manufacturing activities, termination of employees, and the sale of certain plant and equipment. This restructuring, which was substantially completed by December 31, 2003, resulted in fourth quarter 2002 charges for severance of $14.7 million for the planned termination of 683 employees, early retirement of $4.2 million for 42 employees, and plant closure costs of $0.4 million. The related analysis of long-lived assets to be disposed of resulted in a fourth quarter 2002 non-cash impairment charge of $4.2 million to write down property, plant and equipment to the lower of its carrying value or estimated fair value less cost to sell (net realizable value). During the year ended December 31, 2003, in conjunction with the above described restructuring plan, IAS recorded severance charges of $2.1 million for an additional 165 employees and $2.1 million for other plant closure costs. The related analysis of long-lived assets to be disposed of resulted in the non-cash impairment charge of $4.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 to write down property, plant and equipment to the lower of its carrying value or estimated net realizable
14
value. The fair value of long-lived assets to be disposed of was estimated based on the current market value of similar assets.
In the first quarter 2004, IAS recorded additional charges of $0.3 million for additional facility consolidation costs and $0.1 million for impairment of property plant and equipment in conjunction with this plan. As of March 31, 2004, the IAS segment had terminated 787 employees and paid $16.6 million in severance, cumulatively, in conjunction with this plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, 103 employees were terminated and $3.3 million severance was paid in conjunction with this plan. The number of employees terminated does not include 228 employees of Lamb Body & Assembly that are no longer IAS employees as a result of the divestiture of this operation in September 2003.
Corporate: During the third quarter of 2002, the Company initiated a plan to relocate its corporate office to its existing Intermec Technologies Corporation facility in Everett, Washington. This action, which was substantially complete by June 30, 2003, resulted in the accrual of severance costs for 19 employees totaling $2.0 million and other facility closure costs of $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2002. In the fourth quarter of 2002, an additional accrual was recorded for facility closure costs of $1.2 million. Additional charges of $1.7 million for facility move and employee relocation expense were recorded in the year ended December 31, 2003. As of March 31, 2004, 22 employees had been terminated and $0.6 million in severance costs had been paid, cumulatively, of which 2 employee terminations and $0.2 million in severance payments occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2004.
Interest, Net
Net interest expense decreased $0.8 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the corresponding prior year period as a result of lower average debt balances and higher cash balances during the first quarter of 2004 compared with comparable prior year quarter. In January 2003, the Company fully paid down and terminated the remaining $16.2 million balance of a term loan.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2004, is primarily related to federal and foreign taxes. The effective income tax rate of 34% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was lower than the normal effective tax rate of 38% to 40% due to the recognition of certain previously unrecognized state income tax loss carryforwards. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2003, is primarily related to foreign and state taxes, as the domestic tax benefit for the quarter is offset by a corresponding valuation allowance.
Loss from Discontinued Operations
During the third quarter 2003, in conjunction with the IAS consolidation plan, the Company sold substantially all the assets and existing backlog of its Lamb Body and Assembly Systems division for a price approximately equal to the book value of the divested assets. The transaction is accounted for and reported under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The results of operations for this division are classified as a discontinued operation.
Sales and service revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $9.7 million. There was no revenue from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The losses from discontinued operations and tax effect of losses from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 were not material. Losses from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were $2.2 million and did not have a tax effect for the three months ended March 31, 2003, as the Companys domestic income tax benefit for the quarter was offset by a corresponding valuation allowance.

ADS segment revenues increased $30.1 million, or 18%, to $193.0 for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, compared to $162.9 million for the corresponding prior year period. The three months ended March 31, 2004 include significant revenue and operating profit related to an IP settlement. The specific terms of the settlement are confidential. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the IP settlement, net of legal fees, resulted in a favorable impact on segment operating profit of $15.8 million, compared to $0.8 million of IP related legal expense in the comparable prior year period.
ADS product and service revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2004 increased $10.5 million, or 6.4% compared to corresponding prior year period. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, systems and solutions revenues increased by 6.7%, printer/media increased by 7.9% and service increased by 5.3% over the corresponding prior year period. Geographically, product and service revenue for EMEA increased 22.0%, North America increased 2.8%, and the rest of the world decreased 11.1% compared to the corresponding prior year period. Favorable foreign exchange rates contributed approximately $8.8 million of the revenue increase from the prior year quarter. The quarter ended March 31, 2003 included a significant direct store delivery rollout in Latin America.
Operating profit from ADS product and service revenue increased $2.5 million, or 25%, to $12.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $9.8 for the corresponding prior year period. The improvement in operating profit is primarily due to the $10.5 million increase in revenues and the 3.2 percentage point increase in the product and service gross margin partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared to the corresponding prior year period.
An additional patent infringement lawsuit regarding the Companys battery power-management patents is pending and may result in future revenue. Settlements have been reached to date with companies that in the aggregate represent approximately ninety percent of U.S. laptop sales. Management cannot predict the outcome, timing or amount of future settlements or judgments.

Industrial Automation Systems
IAS segment revenues increased $3.5 million, or 3.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2004, compared with the corresponding prior year period. The increase in revenue reflects a slight improvement in the continuing global weakness in capital spending, primarily in the North American automotive and worldwide aerospace industries. IAS operating losses were $5.3 million and $8.2 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The $2.9 million reduction in the IAS operating loss is primarily due to the effect of the IAS restructuring programs which were largely complete as of December 31, 2003.
Backlog for the IAS segment was $247.7 million at March 31, 2004, compared with $266.1 million at December 31, 2003, adjusted to exclude discontinued operations. Bookings continue to be negatively impacted by delayed or canceled capital equipment investment by the U.S. automotive and worldwide aerospace industries and by weakness in the domestic machine tool market. The Company believes that increased capital equipment investment by its automotive customers will be necessary to facilitate introduction of new vehicles and engines. However, the timing of renewed capital equipment investments is unclear. The Company does not expect significant improvement in the near term.
The three month periods ending March 31, 2004 and 2003 include special charges resulting from the IAS segments cost reduction actions including consolidation of plant facilities, sale or closure of certain underperforming operations and the consolidation of the Cincinnati Machine and the Lamb Machining Systems operations. See the discussion above under the heading Special Charges.
Corporate and Other
Operating expenses from Corporate and Other were $3.5 million and $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease in expense of $3.5 million was primarily due to cost reductions from the relocation of corporate headquarters to Everett, Washington in 2003, a favorable ruling in an IP legal dispute during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and from a reduction in currency losses for the three months ended March 31, 2004, compared to the comparable prior year period.
Expectations
During its quarterly conference call on April 30, 2004, the Company provided projections of segment revenues and operating profit for the second quarter of 2004, as discussed below.
ADS products and service revenues for the second quarter of 2004 are expected to be in the range of $184 to $189 million, reflecting a projected increase in the range of 7% to 10% over the corresponding prior year quarter. The related operating profit is expected to be in the range of $11.6 to $13.6 million.
The IAS segment is expected to return to operating profitability for the second quarter and full year 2004, with a projected operating profit of approximately $1 million in the second quarter.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $227.5 million at March 31, 2004, from $238.4 million at December 31, 2003. Long-term obligations decreased from $208.5 million at December 31, 2003 to $108.5 million at March 31, 2004 due to the reclassification of $100 million to current portion of long-term obligations which mature in March 2005. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, net cash, defined as cash and cash equivalents less total debt, decreased $10.9 million to $19.0 million, compared with $29.9 million at December 31, 2003. The decrease in net cash primarily reflects a decrease in cash and cash equivalents due to cash used in normal operations, net of proceeds from an IP settlement.
Cash used in operating activities of $9.5 million was due primarily to $7 million in bond interest paid and $2.5 million used by operations. Cash provided by the ADS segment was more than offset by working capital usage in the IAS segment supporting the early build cycle in certain long-term contracts. Investing activities used $3.1 million primarily due to capital expenditures. Financing activities provided $1.7 million from stock option exercises.
The Company maintains two secured long-term credit facilities: a $100 million asset-based revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility) and a £15.0 million ($27.2 million) revolving facility and related overdraft facility (collectively, the UK Facility).
The Company had borrowing capacity at March 31, 2004, of $11.6 million under the Revolving Facility and £11.9 million ($21.7 million) under the UK Facility, net of outstanding letters of credit and limitations on Minimum Availability. The Company had no borrowings under the Revolving Facility or the UK Facility at any time during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and as of March 31, 2004, no borrowings were outstanding under either facility. As of March 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of each of these agreements. As of March 31, 2004 the Revolving Facility was amended to provide greater flexibility for the Company to, among other things, change the organizational structure of Intermec Technologies Corporation, acquire or create additional subsidiaries in connection with stock or asset purchases, recapitalize certain subsidiaries, prepay or repurchase certain debt and increase certain letters of credit in foreign exchange facilities.
17
In March 1998, the Company sold $200.0 million principal amount of senior unsecured debt in an underwritten offering. The debt comprised $100.0 million of 6.875% seven-year notes and $100.0 million of 7.00% ten-year notes. Interest payments are due semi-annually. Including underwriting fees, discounts and other issuance costs, the effective interest rates on the seven-year and ten-year notes are 7.125% and 7.175%, respectively.
The Company additionally has outstanding $8.5 million of 3.21% industrial revenue bonds, maturing in July 2005.
Management believes that cash and cash equivalents on hand combined with projected cash flow from operations will provide adequate funding to meet its expected working capital, capital expenditure, and restructuring cost requirements for the next twelve months. Projected cash flows from operations are largely based on the Companys revenue estimates, cost estimates, and the related timing of cash receipts and cash disbursements. If actual performance differs from estimated performance, cash flow from operations could be positively or negatively impacted. Additional sources of liquidity for the Company include the Revolving Facility and the UK Facility.
Contractual Obligations
The Companys contractual commitments as of March 31, 2004, have not changed materially from those disclosed in Item 7 of the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Critical Accounting Policies
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Companys consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Managements beliefs regarding significant accounting policies have not changed significantly from those disclosed in Item 7 of the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 106-1, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act). FSP 106-1 permits a sponsor of a postretirement health care plan that provides a prescription drug benefit to make a one-time election to defer accounting for the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. Regardless of whether a sponsor elects that deferral, certain disclosures are required pending further consideration of the underlying accounting issues. FSP 106-1 is effective for interim or annual financial statements of fiscal years ending after December 7, 2003. The Company elected to defer accounting for the effects of the Act on the Companys postretirement healthcare plans. Accordingly, any measures of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (APBO) or net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the Companys consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes do not reflect the effects of the Act. Specific authoritative guidance on the accounting for the federal subsidy is pending and that guidance, when issued, could require the Company to change previously reported information
In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits. The revised statement retains the disclosure requirements contained in SFAS No. 132, which it replaces, and requires additional disclosures about the assets, obligations, cash flows and net periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans. Except as noted below, the provisions of this statement are effective for the Companys financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003. The interim period disclosure requirements of the statement became effective for the Companys interim financial statements for the
18
quarter ending March 31, 2004, and are included in Note 14 to the Companys consolidated financial statements. The statements disclosure requirements relating to estimated future benefit payments and relating to foreign plans are effective for the Companys financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004.
All statements in this report that are not historical facts or that include such words as expect, project, estimate, believe, could, may or plan or other similar words are forward-looking statements that the Company deems to be covered by and to qualify for the safe harbor protection of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (alternatively: Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the following:
The anticipated demand for the Companys products and services;
Anticipated improvements of existing products and development of new products in the Companys ADS segment;
The Companys view of the short- and long-term outlook for and trends in the markets for the Companys products and services;
The Companys ability to
meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements;
achieve its goals with respect to revenues and cost savings in each of its segments;
successfully manage and complete large-scale industrial systems contracts for customers;
successfully obtain critical components for its products;
complete large-scale mobile computing installations;
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Several factors govern whether the Company will or can achieve any forward-looking statement made in this report. Any one of these factors could cause the Companys actual results to differ materially from those discussed in a forward-looking statement. The Company outlines these risk factors in reports that it files with the SEC, in press releases and on its website, www.unova.com. Such risk factors include, but are not limited to:
Continued weakness in the automotive and aerospace markets could lead to reduced demand for the Companys products.
Technological changes and consequent market shifts could adversely impact demand for the Companys products and systems.
Some of the Companys competitors have greater financial and other resources than the Company and, as a result, may be able to adapt more quickly to market trends or price declines.
If the Company is unable to obtain key components of its products from its current suppliers, the cost of manufacturing the Companys products could increase, the Company might have to re-engineer some products, and delivery times of some of the Companys products could be delayed.
The Companys inability to successfully manage the reorganization of its IAS segment and reduce its operating costs could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition.
19
Political instability outside of the U.S. and hostility against U.S. companies in foreign jurisdictions could adversely affect the Companys international operations.
Changes in U.S. and foreign government regulations regarding radio emissions could adversely affect the Companys ability to sell its ADS products or complete development of anticipated new products.
Readers should consider the foregoing risk factors in evaluating the Companys ability to achieve expected results or objectives set forth in any forward-looking statement. In addition, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements in making investment decisions regarding the Company. The Company disclaims any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily from its short-term and long-term borrowings and to foreign exchange rate risk with respect to its foreign operations and from foreign currency transactions.
Due to its global operations, the Companys cash flows and earnings are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. When appropriate, the Company may attempt to limit its exposure to changing foreign exchange rates by entering into short-term foreign currency exchange contracts. As of March 31, 2004, the Company held short-term contracts for the purpose of hedging foreign currency cash flows with an aggregate notional amount of $116.4 million.
Except as noted in the preceding paragraphs, as of March 31, 2004, there have been no material changes in information provided in Item 7A of the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, which contains a complete discussion of the Companys material exposures to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, supervised and participated in an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed in the Companys Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
