NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollar and share amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
Southwall Technologies Inc., including its wholly owned subsidiaries, Southwall Europe GmbH, Southwall IG Holdings, Inc., Southwall Insulating Glass, LLC (“SIG”) and Crown Operations International, LLC, are hereafter referred to as the “Company,” “Southwall,” “Registrant,” “We,” “Our” or “Us.”
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Southwall are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Southwall for all periods presented. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The Company suggests that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2011. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any future periods.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, based on all known facts and circumstances that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time of the estimates. The estimates included in preparing our financial statements include: the accrual for product returns and warranties, allowance for doubtful accounts, quarterly income taxes, inventory valuations (including reserves for excess and obsolete and impaired inventories), reserves for decommissioning costs associated with leasehold asset retirement obligations and the valuation of stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reverse Stock Split
On March 9, 2011, the Company completed a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of its common stock, pursuant to previously obtained stockholder approval on May 12, 2010. The reverse stock split reduced the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding from approximately 28.8 million to approximately 5.8 million. In connection with the reverse stock split, the Company also reduced the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 50 million to 10 million to reflect the reverse stock split ratio. All share and per share amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2010 herein are presented on a post-reverse stock split basis.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's condensed consolidated balance sheet and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows to conform to the current year presentation.
Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
Since December 31, 2010, there are no recently issued accounting standards that are expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements
The Company has estimated the fair value amounts of its financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities using available market information and valuation methodologies considered to be appropriate and has determined that the book value of those instruments at March 31, 2011 approximates fair value.
Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for debt and capital lease obligations with similar terms, the carrying value of our term debt and capital lease obligations approximates fair value.
Southwall invests its cash primarily in money market funds. The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value of its financial assets.

Note 5 – Net Income Per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) for the period. Diluted net income per common share gives effect to all dilutive common shares potentially outstanding during the period, including stock options and convertible preferred stock. The Company excludes options from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding if the exercise price of the options is greater than the average market price of the shares because the inclusion of these options would be anti-dilutive to net income per share. The Company also excludes preferred shares convertible into common stock from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding when the effect would be anti-dilutive.
At March 31, 2011 and 2010, 661 and 75 outstanding options, respectively, were excluded from the dilutive net income per common share calculation, as they were anti-dilutive because the option prices were higher than the average market price during each of the three-month periods.
The Company has accrued a deemed dividend on preferred stock of $122 for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. The dilutive effect of convertible securities shall be reflected in diluted net income per share by application of the if-converted method. Under this method, if an entity has convertible preferred stock outstanding, the preferred dividends applicable to convertible preferred stock shall be added back to the numerator unless their effect is anti-dilutive.
The table summarizing net income attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted net income per common share, and weighted shares outstanding is shown below:

Note 6 – Segment Reporting
The Company is a developer and manufacturer of high performance films and glass products that improve energy efficiency in architectural and automotive glass applications. Prior to the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company operated only one segment. With the acquisition of the controlling interest in SIG, the Company operates in two segments: film, which is a manufacturer of thin film coatings on flexible substrates, and glass, which is a manufacturer of insulated glass units. Since the Company did not acquire a controlling interest in SIG until May 2010, there is no information for the three months ended March 31, 2010 for comparison purposes.
The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM allocates resources to and assesses the performance of each operating segment using information about its revenue and operating income (loss).
The Company does not allocate gains and losses from interest and other income, or taxes to operating segments. Although the CODM uses operating income (loss) to evaluate the segments, operating costs included in one segment may benefit the other segment.
Segment information is summarized as follows:

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies
The Company leases certain property and equipment as well as its facilities under noncancellable operating leases. These leases expire at various dates through 2013.
In January 2006, the Company renewed a lease agreement for its research and development facility in Palo Alto, California. The lease was renewed in January 2011 for an additional twelve months. Under this lease agreement, the Company had accrued $480 for leasehold retirement obligations, which is included in other accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The method and timing of payments are not yet finalized, and therefore, this estimate of the Company’s liability could differ from the actual future settlement amount.
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations to procure manufacturing raw material of $1,794 and equipment of $3,824.
Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank
In June 2010, the Company renewed its Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank (the “Bank”). The Credit Agreement provides for a $3,000 revolving line of credit. Advances under the line exceeding $1,500 will be limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. The Company will not be eligible for additional borrowings if the Company’s consolidated cash balance falls below $3,500. Amounts borrowed under the line of credit bear interest at either prime plus 0.75% or LIBOR plus 3.5%, determined at the discretion of the Company, and is annualized on the average daily financed amount outstanding. All borrowings under the line of credit facility are collateralized by the Company’s assets in the United States and are subject to certain covenants including minimum quarterly net income and minimum liquid asset requirements.
In August 2010, the Company’s Credit Agreement with the Bank was amended to provide for a $1,250 term loan, which was funded on September 2, 2010. Amounts borrowed under the term loan are payable over 36 months in equal installments and bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.05%. The Credit Agreement was further amended to provide covenants for tangible net worth and fixed charge coverage ratio.
The Company has classified $480 and $817 outstanding under the Bank term loan and capital lease as a short-term liability and long-term liability, respectively, at March 31, 2011. The Company is obligated to pay an aggregate of $417 in principal under its Wells Fargo term loan in 2011.
On December 27, 2010, the Company entered into a lease agreement with the Bank to finance research and development equipment. The lease term is 48 months and requires monthly payments. As of March 31, 2011, the principal balance of this lease was $255.
As of March 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants under the Credit Agreement and capital lease.

The Company believes, however, that none of these actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its business, its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 8 – Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has a stock-based compensation program that provides its Board of Directors broad discretion in creating employee equity incentives. The Company has granted stock options under various option plans and agreements in the past and currently grants stock options under the 2007 Long Term Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”), which authorizes the granting of up to 10,000 shares of common stock. Under the terms of the 2007 Plan, the Company can grant both Incentive Stock Options and Nonstatutory Stock Options. Grants issued under the 2007 Plan vest and become exercisable at a rate of 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant and become fully vested on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant provided that the participant remains an employee or service provider of the Company or a related company. Each option granted under the 2007 Plan is non-transferable and expires over terms not exceeding ten years from the date of grant or 30 days after an option holder’s voluntary termination from the Company. If an option holder’s employment is terminated involuntarily for misconduct, the option will terminate immediately and may no longer be exercised. Involuntary termination not for misconduct allows for the option holder to exercise options within a period of three months after such termination of service occurs. The 2007 Plan provides for longer expiration periods for employees who terminate, but who were employed with the Company in excess of five years. Pursuant to the provisions set forth in the 2007 Plan, the option expiration will be extended anywhere from three months to one year, dependent upon the employee’s years of service. These provisions apply to options that expire as the result of involuntary termination not for misconduct. As of March 31, 2011, there were 1,065 shares of common stock available for grant under the 2007 Plan.
The following table sets forth the total stock-based compensation expense resulting from stock options included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations:

The Company’s computation of expected volatility was based on historical volatility. The Company’s computation of expected life was based on historical exercise patterns. The interest rate for periods within the expected life of the award is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant.
The Company has not in the past and does not plan to issue dividends in the future.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between Southwall’s closing stock price on the last trading day of its first quarter of fiscal 2011 and the exercise price, times the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2011. This amount changes based on the fair market value of Southwall’s stock. Total intrinsic value of options exercised was $86 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
As of March 31, 2011, $2,394 of total unrecognized compensation cost, net of forfeitures, related to stock options was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.33 years.

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $950 and $9 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate was 40.3% and 0.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The primary reason for the change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, is due to the impact of the valuation allowance during 2010. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate due to various factors, such as tax legislation, the mix of domestic and international pre-tax income, research and development credits, foreign tax credits, share-based compensations and change in valuation allowance.
The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. As of March 31, 2011, the Company identified and recorded unrecognized tax benefits in the amount of approximately $394, but no interest and penalties have been recorded due to the immaterial impact to the financial statements. The Company does not expect material changes in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits will occur within the next twelve months.
Note 12 – Acquisitions
Controlling Interest in Joint Venture
In 2008, Southwall IG Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Southwall Technologies Inc., entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Sound Solutions Window & Doors, LLC (“Sound Solutions”), creating SIG, which manufactures insulated glass units for the domestic market, to further expand the market for the Company’s Heat Mirror product. As of December 31, 2009, Southwall IG Holdings, Inc. had a 50% investment in SIG. In 2009, Southwall IG Holdings, Inc. advanced a total of $300 in the form of a promissory note to Sound Solutions. Pursuant to the terms of the promissory note dated May 11, 2009, the principal and accrued interest was due and payable to Southwall IG Holdings, Inc. by January 1, 2010. Under terms of the note, in the event of default, the outstanding principal was to be paid in the form of a credit to the Southwall IG Holdings, Inc. capital account.
Effective January 1, 2010, Sound Solutions had not paid the principal balance of $300 and was in default of the promissory note. The $300, for which Sound Solutions had received equity consideration in SIG, was credited to Southwall IG Holdings, Inc.’s capital account in SIG, thereby increasing the Company’s equity ownership to 66.3%. This change in equity did not result in Southwall IG Holdings, Inc. acquiring a controlling interest in SIG, as governance did not change as a result of the equity event. For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, SIG was accounted for under the equity method of accounting and the Company’s share of SIG’s net losses of approximately $225 was included in “other income (expense), net” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
On May 20, 2010, the Joint Venture Agreement was amended allowing Southwall IG Holding, Inc. to make additional cash contributions to the joint venture. In order to acquire an additional 8.7% to obtain 75% equity ownership, the Company relinquished $256 of value allowing Sound Solutions to maintain a 25% equity interest in SIG. This transaction triggered a business combination event, which resulted in the consolidation of total assets and liabilities of SIG. Subsequently in 2010, the Company increased its equity ownership in SIG to 80%. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company increased its equity ownership in SIG to 90%.
The unaudited pro forma net revenues and net income attributable to Southwall for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $11,094 and $1,235, respectively.
Crown Operations International
On August 30, 2010, Crown International Acquisition Company, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Southwall Technologies Inc., acquired the operating assets of Crown Operations International, Ltd. (“Crown Operations”), for $3,302 in cash. Subsequent to the acquisition of Crown Operations, Crown International Acquisition Company, LLC changed its name to Crown Operations International, LLC (“COI”). Crown Operations is an interlayer converting and laminating facility. The unaudited pro forma net revenues and net income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $10,679 and $1,597, respectively.
Note 13 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
The Company’s carrying value of goodwill at March 31, 2011 was $1,854, which consisted of $1,488 related to the acquisition of SIG and $366 as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Crown International Operations.

XIR®, XUV®, Triangle Design®, Superglass®, Heat Mirror®, California Series®, Solis®, ETCH-A-FLEX®, and Southwall® are registered trademarks of Southwall. V-KOOL® is a registered trademark of Solutia, Inc. All other trade names and trademarks referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are the property of their respective owners.
Southwall is a developer and manufacturer of high performance films and, beginning in 2008, glass products that improve energy efficiency in architectural and automotive glass applications. Founded in response to the oil embargo of 1973, Southwall has approximately 35 years of experience and commercial adoption of its products worldwide. Our products are designed to assist our green building construction and transportation customers in their efforts to decrease carbon emissions which may reduce the use of oil and electricity in the heating and cooling of buildings and vehicles.
Our customers were not immune to the global economic downturn of 2009. We believe both the architectural and automotive industries experienced material sales declines, which negatively impacted our financial results in the early part of 2010.
In 2010, we acquired a controlling interest in Southwall Insulating Glass, LLC (“Southwall Insulating Glass” or “SIG”), a joint venture between our wholly-owned subsidiary Southwall IG Holdings Inc. and Sound Solutions Windows & Doors, LLC (“Sound Solutions").
As a result of our acquisition of a controlling interest in SIG, we operate in two segments: film, which includes our development and manufacture of thin film coatings on flexible substrates, and glass, which includes the production and sale of glass units through Southwall Insulating Glass.
In August 2010, we purchased substantially all of the assets of Crown Operations International, LTD (“Crown Operations”). Crown Operations is a Wisconsin-based processor of high performance, heat reflective interlayers that improve the energy efficiency of laminated glass in buildings, homes and cars. We expect the acquisition of these assets to provide additional integration and improvement of our production processes enabling us to bring new, energy-saving interlayer products to the market. We also believe that the Crown Operations’ laminating and converting capabilities simplify material logistics and facilitate the adoption of high performance interlayers for volume production. We believe we are now positioned to provide a complete interlayer solution from encapsulation through converting in furtherance of our goal of making it easier for manufacturers to integrate the performance of Southwall's XIR heat-reflective film into their architectural and automotive laminated glass products.
Recent Events
On March 9, 2011, we completed a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of our common stock, pursuant to previously obtained stockholder approval on May 12, 2010. The reverse stock split reduced the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding from approximately 28.8 million to approximately 5.8 million. In connection with the reverse stock split, we also reduced the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 50 million to 10 million to reflect the reverse stock split ratio. All share and per share amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2010 herein are presented on a post-reverse stock split basis.
In 2010, we were awarded a three-year grant of $1,445 from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop advanced technologies aimed at making homes and buildings more energy efficient. We have used and will continue to use the funding to accelerate development of higher performance and lower cost Heat Mirror low-emissivity and solar-reflective films and multi-cavity, suspended-film insulating glass technology to enable the broad commercialization of "super-insulating" R-10 windows.
Demand for our customers' products. We derive significant benefits from our relationships with a few large customers and suppliers. Our revenues and gross profit can increase or decrease rapidly, reflecting underlying demand for the products of one or a small number of our customers. We may also be unable to replace a customer when a relationship ends or demand for our product declines as a result of evolution of our customers' products.
Our three largest customers in the automotive glass and window film market, and architectural glass markets include: Saint Gobain Sekurit, Pilkington PLC and Solutia Inc., formerly GlobaMatrix Holdings Pte. Ltd., which collectively accounted for approximately 72% and 72% of our total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Under our agreement with Solutia Inc., as amended, Solutia Inc. agreed to a 2004 minimum purchase commitment of $9,000 of product. For each year after 2004 through the term of the contract, Solutia Inc. contracted to purchase an amount of product equal to 110% of the amount of product it was required to purchase in the prior year. The term of this agreement ends on December 31, 2011. Failure to renew this contract on favorable terms, if at all, could significantly impact future results.
Sales returns and allowances. Our gross margins and profitability have been adversely affected from time to time by product quality claims. As of March 31, 2011, our sales returns provision was approximately 2.5% of our gross revenues over a rolling twelve-month period.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The accompanying discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. However, future events cannot be forecasted with certainty, and the best estimates and judgments routinely require adjustment. We are required to make estimates and judgments in many areas, including those related to: revenue recognition, accrual for product returns and warranties, allowance for doubtful accounts, quarterly income taxes, inventory valuations (including reserves for excess and obsolete and impaired inventories), impairment of intangibles and goodwill, reserves for decommissioning costs associated with leasehold asset retirement obligations and valuation of stock-based compensation. We believe these policies are the most critical to our financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on management’s judgment. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
We believe there have been no significant changes during the first quarter of fiscal 2011 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in our 2010 Form 10-K.

Total net revenues increased 39% to $14,531 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $10,481 for same period in 2010. The increase for automotive film net revenues was due to increased demand from our OEM customers and the higher window film net revenues was primarily due to greater demand resulting from higher sales of automobiles in the first quarter of 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The net revenues growth in architectural film was primarily due to increased material required for a major project in China.

Cost of revenues increased $2,636, or 46%, to $8,404 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $5,768 for the same period in 2010, primarily as a result of higher sales volume in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.

Our gross profit percentage decreased by approximately three percentage points to 42 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 45 percent for the same period in 2010. The decrease was primarily due to costs associated with the addition of SIG that we began consolidating into our results in the second quarter of 2010 and increased costs for precious metals that are used in some of our products.

Research and development. The increase in research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was primarily due to higher headcount related expenses and increased spending for travel and outside services.
Selling, general and administrative. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, was primarily due to higher headcount related expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, increased spending for consulting and outside services and the consolidation of SIG and Crown Operations.
Income from operations
Income from operations increased $233 to an operating income of $2,154 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to operating income of $1,921 for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily due to higher sales and production volumes.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased to $67 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $94 for the same period in 2010. The decrease in interest expense, net was primarily due to lower average outstanding debt balances for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010.
Other income (expense), net
Other income (expense), net, was a net other income of $273 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to a net other expense of $481 for the same period in 2010. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recognized foreign currency gains of $260 related to transactions with foreign customers that were denominated in foreign currencies, principally the Euro. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recognized foreign exchange losses of $283 and our 66.3% share of net losses incurred by SIG of $225.
Income before provision for income taxes
Income before provision for income taxes was $2,360 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to $1,346 for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily due to higher sales and production volumes.
Provision for income taxes
We recorded an income tax provision of $950 and $9 in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate was 40.3% and 0.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The primary reason for the change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 is due to the impact of the valuation allowance during 2010. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate due to various factors, such as tax legislation, the mix of domestic and international pre-tax income, research and development credits, foreign tax credits, share-based compensations and change in valuation allowance.
The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. As of March 31, 2011, we identified and recorded unrecognized tax benefits in the amount of approximately $394, that if reversed, would impact the tax expense, but no interest and penalties have been recorded due to the immaterial impact to the financial statements. We do not expect material changes in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits will occur within the next twelve months.
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest of $160 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 is related to the consolidation of SIG upon acquisition of a controlling interest during the second quarter of 2010.
Deemed dividend on preferred stock
We accrued $122 of deemed dividend on preferred stock in each of the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The holders of our secured convertible promissory notes converted those notes to shares of Series A preferred stock in December 2004. The Series A preferred stock accrues cumulative dividends at the rate of 10% per annum.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal liquidity requirements are for working capital, consisting primarily of accounts receivable and inventories, for debt repayments and capital expenditures. We believe that because of the production cycle of certain of our products, our inventories will continue to represent a significant portion of our working capital.
Our cash and cash equivalents decreased $1,795 from $13,776 at December 31, 2010 to $11,981 at March 31, 2011. The decrease in cash is primarily due to an increase in current assets and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, partially offset by net income and non-cash expenses.
Specifically, cash used in operating activities of $1,173 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was primarily the result of net income of $1,410, non-cash depreciation and amortization of $845, non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $201, offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $2,120, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,253 and an increase in inventories, net of $458.
Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was for capital expenditures of $455.
Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $100 was the result of scheduled payments of other term debt and capital lease obligations of $171, offset by proceeds from stock option exercises of $71.
Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank
In June 2010, we renewed our Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank (the “Bank”). The Credit Agreement provides for a $3,000 revolving line of credit. Advances under the line exceeding $1,500 will be limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. We will not be eligible for additional borrowings if our consolidated cash balance falls below $3,500. Amounts borrowed under the facility bear interest at either prime plus 0.75% or LIBOR plus 3.5%, determined at our discretion, and is annualized on the average daily financed amount outstanding. All borrowings under the facilities are collateralized by our assets in the United States and are subject to certain covenants including minimum quarterly net income and minimum liquid asset requirements.
Generally, if any event of default occurs, the Bank may declare all outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement to be due and payable. The maturity date of the facility is June 2011. Although we expect to renew the credit line, we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining a new or replacement credit facility due to restrictive credit markets. As of March 31, 2011, we had no balance outstanding on our line of credit, and we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement. The foregoing does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereby or a complete explanation of material terms thereof.
In August 2010, our Credit Agreement with the Bank was amended to provide for a $1,250 term loan, which was funded on September 2, 2010. Amounts borrowed under the term loan are payable over 36 months in equal installments and bear interest at a fixed rate 4.05%. The Credit Agreement was further amended to provide covenants for tangible net worth and fixed charge coverage ratio.
We have classified $480 and $817 outstanding under the Bank term loan and capital lease as a short-term liability and long-term liability, respectively, at March 31, 2011. We are obligated to pay an aggregate of $417 in principal under our Wells Fargo term loan in 2011.
On December 27, 2010, we entered into a lease agreement with the Bank to finance research and development equipment. The lease term is 48 months and requires monthly payments. As of March 31, 2011, the principal balance of this lease was $255.
As of March 31, 2011, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement and capital lease.
Borrowing Arrangements with German Banks
Our borrowing arrangements with various German banks as of March 31, 2011 are described in Note 7 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Item 1. “Financial Statements”) set forth herein. We are in compliance with all of the covenants of the German bank loans and capital leases, and we have classified $448 and $2,642 outstanding under the German bank loans and capital leases as a short-term liability and long-term liability, respectively, at March 31, 2011.
As of March 31, 2011, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under all financial instruments.
We expect to spend approximately $7,600 in 2011 primarily related to machinery and equipment for production automation and additional equipment investment in our Germany facility.
Future payment obligations
Our future payment obligations on our borrowings pursuant to our term debt, non-cancelable operating and capital leases and other non-cancelable contractual commitments were as follows at March 31, 2011:

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes, foreign currency fluctuations, and changes in the market values of our investments.
Financing risk. The interest rate on one of our German loans was reset to the prevailing market rate of 5.73% in September 2009. Fluctuations or changes in interest rates may adversely affect our expected interest expense. The effect of a 10% fluctuation in the interest rate on our line of credit and term debt would not have a material effect on our interest expense for the first quarter of 2011.
Investment risk. We invest our excess cash in money market accounts and, by practice, make every effort to limit the amount of exposure by investing with strong, well-known institutions. Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. The effect of a 10% fluctuation in the interest rate on our excess cash investments would not have had a material effect on our interest income in the first quarter of 2011.
Foreign currency risk. International net revenues (defined as sales to customers located outside of the United States) accounted for approximately 86% of our total net revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2011. Approximately 41% of our international net revenues were denominated in Euros in the first quarter of 2011. The remaining 45% of our international net revenues were denominated in U.S. dollars. In addition, certain transactions with foreign suppliers are denominated in foreign currencies. The effect of a 10% fluctuation in the Euro exchange rate would have had an effect of approximately $609 on net revenues and $564 on expenses and the effect on expenses of a 10% reduction in the Yen exchange rate would have an effect of approximately $106 for the first quarter of 2011.
Item 4 – Controls and Procedures
| |
(a)
|
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, such that the information relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
|
| |
(b)
|
Changes in Internal Controls. There were no changes during the three month period ended March 31, 2011 in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting.
|
Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Consequently, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1– Legal Proceedings
We may be a party to various pending judicial and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of the pending proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based on our review, we believe that any unrecorded liability that may result is not likely to have a material effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.
The following information updates should be read in conjunction with the information disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2011.
