ITEM 1.D. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. The Company and Basis of Presentation
ORGANIZATION - Bright Horizons Family Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") was
incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on April 27, 1998 and
commenced substantive operations upon the completion of the merger by and
between Bright Horizons, Inc. ("BRHZ") and CorporateFamily Solutions, Inc.
("CFAM") on July 24, 1998 (the "Merger".) The Company provides workplace
services for employers and families including childcare, early education and
strategic work/life consulting throughout the United States and the United
Kingdom, and in Canada, Guam and Ireland.
The Company operates its child care and early education centers under various
types of arrangements, which generally can be classified in two forms: (i) the
sponsor model, where the Company operates a center on the premises of a sponsor
and gives priority enrollment to the sponsor's employees or affiliates, and
(ii) the management model, where the Company manages a work-site center under a
cost-plus arrangement, typically for a single employer.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared by the Company in accordance with the accounting policies described in
the Company's audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, and should be read in
conjunction with the notes thereto.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary
to present fairly its financial position as of September 30, 2002, and the
results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2002 and 2001, and its cash flows for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, and are of a normal and recurring nature. The
results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results to be expected for the full year.
SEGMENT INFORMATION - As of September 30, 2002, the Company operates solely in
one segment, providing workplace services to employers and families including
childcare, early education and work/life consulting and generates in excess of
90% of revenue and operating profit in the United States.
6
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME - Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity
of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and
circumstances from non-owner sources. The only components of comprehensive
income reported by the Company are net income and foreign currency translation
adjustments.
For the Nine Months Ended September 30,

========= =========
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 145, "Rescission of
FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and
Technical Corrections." This statement eliminates the requirement that gains
and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material,
classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect.
However, an entity would not be prohibited from classifying such gains and
losses as extraordinary items so long as they are both unusual in nature and
infrequent in occurrence. This provision of SFAS No.145 will be effective for
the Company as of the beginning of fiscal year 2003. This statement also amends
SFAS No.13, "Accounting for Leases" and certain other authoritative
pronouncements to make technical corrections or clarifications. SFAS No.145
will be effective related to the amendment of SFAS No.13 for all transactions
occurring after May 15, 2002. All other provisions of SFAS No.145 will be
effective for financial statements issued after May 15, 2002. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of implementing SFAS No.145.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities", which nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination
Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred
in a Restructuring)." SFAS No.146 requires a liability for a cost associated
with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at its
fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred. If fair value
cannot be reasonably estimated, the liability shall be recognized initially in
the period in which fair value can be reasonably estimated. The provisions of
SFAS No.146 will be effective for the Company prospectively for exit or
disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company is in the
process of assessing the impact of SFAS No.146 on its consolidated financial
statements.
2. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets", and prospectively discontinued the amortization of
goodwill. At
7
the date of adoption, the total carrying value of goodwill was approximately
$23.5 million. The Company tested the goodwill for impairment by comparing the
fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The fair value of a
reporting unit was determined by estimating the present value of expected
future cash flows, and the Company determined that no impairments existed upon
the adoption of SFAS No. 142. On an ongoing basis, impairment tests will be
performed at least annually.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company completed acquisitions
which have resulted in a preliminary allocation of approximately $15.5 million
to goodwill. The Company will complete the allocation of the purchase price to
goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
No. 141 by December 31, 2002, which the Company expects will not result in a
material change in the allocation of the purchase price. The Company does not
have any indefinitely-lived intangible assets.
At September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 the Company had approximately $2.0
million of finite-lived intangible assets subject to further amortization,
which had associated accumulated amortization of approximately $1.5 million and
$1.1 million, respectively. Intangible assets are amortized over their
estimated useful lives that range from 3 to 4 years.
If FAS No. 142 had been adopted in the prior period, the Company's pro forma
net income and net income per common share for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 would have been as follows:

3. Line of Credit
In June 2002, the Company renewed and amended its unsecured line of credit
agreement originally entered into on March 30, 2000. The credit facility
consists of a $25 million revolving line of credit, expiring on June 30, 2005;
any outstanding indebtedness at that date will be converted into a three-year
term loan. At the Company's option, the line of credit will bear interest at
either i) Prime or ii) LIBOR plus a spread based on debt levels and coverage
ratios. The Company reduced the line of credit from $40 million to $25 million
on renewal in conjunction with estimated borrowing needs over the life of the
agreement. The agreement requires the Company to comply with certain covenants,
which include, among other things, the maintenance of specified financial
ratios, and prohibits the payment of dividends without bank approval.
4. Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share has been calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128
"Earnings per Share", which established standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share. The computation of net earnings per share is based on the
weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares
outstanding during the period.
The following tables present information necessary to calculate earnings per
share:

The weighted average number of shares excluded from the above calculations for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 were approximately 294,000
and 102,000, respectively, and approximately 24,000 and 15,000 for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2001, respectively, as their effect would
be anti-dilutive. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002
and 2001, the Company had no warrants or preferred stock outstanding.
5. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company self-insures a portion of its workers compensation and medical
insurance plans. While management believes that the amounts accrued for these
obligations is sufficient, any significant increase in the number of claims and
costs associated with claims made under these plans could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
10
The Company is a defendant in certain legal matters in the ordinary course of
business. Management believes the resolution of such legal matters will not
have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements regarding, among
other things, the anticipated financial and operating results of the Company.
Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no
obligation to publicly release any modifications or revisions to these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after
the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. In
connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company cautions investors that future
financial and operating results may differ materially from those projected in
forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. Such
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and
other factors that may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements
of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance,
or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. See
"Risk Factors" included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2001 and incorporated herein by reference for a
description of a number of risks and uncertainties, which could affect actual
results.
General
The Company provides workplace services for employers and families, including
child care, early education and strategic work/life consulting, operating 462
child care and early education centers at September 30, 2002. During the
three-month period ending September 30, 2002, the Company added 11 new centers,
and closed 5 centers. In the third quarter of 2002, the Company added a net of
approximately 1,000 spaces to its total capacity. The Company now has the
capacity to serve approximately 53,500 children in 37 states, the District of
Columbia, Canada, Guam, Ireland and the United Kingdom and has partnerships with
many of the nation's leading employers, including 84 Fortune 500 companies.
Working Mother's 2002 list of the "100 Best Companies for Working Mothers"
includes 54 clients of the Company. Historical revenue growth has primarily
resulted from the addition of child care and early education centers as well as
increased enrollment at existing centers. The Company reports its operating
results on a calendar year basis.
The Company's business is subject to seasonal and quarterly fluctuations. Demand
for child care and early education services have historically decreased during
the summer months. During this season, families are often on vacation or have
alternative child care arrangements. Demand for the Company's services generally
increases in September and October upon the commencement of the new school year
and remains relatively stable throughout the remainder of the traditional school
year. Results of operations may also fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a
result of, among other things, the performance of existing centers including
enrollment levels and the composition of staffing, the number and timing of new
center openings, transitions of management of existing centers, acquisitions or
center closings, the length of time required for new centers to achieve
profitability, center refurbishment or relocation, the model mix (sponsor vs.
management) of new and existing centers, competitive factors and general
economic conditions.

===== ===== ===== =====
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 Compared to the Three and Nine
Months Ended September 30, 2001
Revenue. Revenue increased $18.2 million, or 20.9%, to $105.4 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 from $87.2 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2001. Revenue increased $45.1 million, or 17.7%, to $299.8
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 from $254.7 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The growth in revenues is primarily
attributable to a 13% increase in service capacity arising from the net
addition of 78 childcare centers since September 30, 2001, including a total of
52 centers in the United Kingdom acquired during the second quarter of 2002.
These acquired centers added approximately $4.5 million to revenue in the third
quarter of 2002 compared to 2001. In addition, revenue increased as a result of
modest growth in the existing base of family centers, and tuition increases of
approximately 3% to 5%. The Company expects full year 2002 revenue growth to
approximate 18%.
Gross Profit. Cost of services consists of center operating expenses, including
payroll and benefits for center personnel, facilities costs, which include
depreciation, supplies and other expenses incurred at the center level. Gross
profit increased $2.5 million, or 20.1%, to $14.9 million for the three month
period ended September 30, 2002 from $12.4 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit decreased to 14.2%
for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 14.3% for the three
months ended September 30, 2001. Gross profit increased $6.7 million, or 17.7%,
to $44.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 from $37.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net
revenues, gross profit remained constant at 14.7% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002, compared to 14.7% for the same period in 2001.
12
As noted above, the Company experiences seasonal fluctuations in the third
calendar quarter when summer vacations result in temporary decreases in
enrollment and when older preschool-age children leave the Company's programs
to begin elementary school. Center margins routinely decline in the third
quarter compared to the first half of the year and then rebound in the fourth
quarter as enrollment rebuilds in the preschool classrooms. The modest decrease
in gross profit margin for the three month period ended September 30, 2002
compared to the same period in 2001 was primarily attributable to increased
insurance costs. The Company expects gross margins for the full year in 2002 to
approximate 14.7%, consistent with the results in 2001.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses ("SGA") consist of regional and district management
personnel, corporate management and administrative functions, and business
development expenses. SGA increased $1.4 million, or 20.7%, to $8.5 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2002 from $7.1 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2001. As a percentage of revenue, SGA remained
constant at 8.1% for the third quarter of 2002 compared to the same period in
2001. SGA increased $3.3 million, or 15.9%, to $24.3 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002 from $21.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. As a percentage of net revenues, SGA decreased to 8.1% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2002 from 8.2% for the same 2001 period.
The dollar increase in SGA is primarily attributable to investments in regional
and divisional management, as well as general corporate and administrative
personnel necessary to support long-term growth and the incremental overhead
associated with acquired businesses in the United Kingdom. As a percentage of
revenue, SGA decreased in 2002 compared to the prior year as a result of a
larger revenue base and increased leveraging of overhead costs. The Company's
operations in the United Kingdom and Ireland also have a proportionately higher
level of overhead in relation to their current revenue base. The Company
expects that incremental administrative costs from entities acquired and modest
investments in integration costs in the United Kingdom will bring the overall
SGA expense level to approximately 8.2% of revenue for the full 2002 year.
Amortization. Amortization expense totaled $102,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2002, as compared to $542,000 in the same period for 2001. For
the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, amortization expense totaled
$285,000 compared to $1.7 million in the period ended September 30, 2001. The
decrease in both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002
compared to September 30, 2001 was the result of a change in accounting for
goodwill and other intangible assets under the provisions of SFAS No.142, which
discontinued the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with
indefinite lives. No impairments existed upon the adoption of SFAS No. 142 in
2002. The Company expects amortization from intangible assets with estimated
useful lives, to approximate $350,000 to $400,000 in 2002.
Income from Operations. Income from operations totaled $6.3 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $1.5 million, or 30.6%,
from $4.8
13
million in the same period for 2001. For the nine months ended September 30,
2002, income from operations increased $4.5 million, or 31.5%, to $19.5 million
from $15.0 million in the same period for 2001. These increases are the result
of the growth in revenue and gross margin indicated above.
Net Interest Income (Expense). Net interest income was approximately $1,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2002 as compared with net interest expense
of $7,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2002 the Company had net interest income of $36,000 as
compared to net interest expense of $72,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2001. The net interest income in 2002 arises from higher average levels of
invested cash, offset by lower average investment yields in 2002 compared to
2001, and lower intermittent borrowings under the Company's line of credit in
2002 as compared to 2001.
Income Tax Provision. The Company's effective income tax rate was approximately
40.5% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002 and 42.1% for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2001. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2002, the tax rate was approximately 41.4% as compared to 41.9%
in the same period in 2001. The decrease in the effective tax rate is a result
of discontinuing the amortization of goodwill not deductible for tax purposes
under the provisions of SFAS No. 142. In addition, foreign operations, which
are taxed at lower average rates, were more profitable in the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the same periods in 2001.
The Company expects that the tax rate for 2002 will approximate 41.5%.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary cash requirements are the ongoing operations of its
existing centers and the addition of new centers through development or
acquisition. The Company's primary sources of liquidity have been existing cash
balances and cash flow from operations, supplemented by borrowing capacity
under the Company's revolving line of credit. The Company had a working capital
deficit of $12.1 million and $3.5 million as of September 30, 2002 and December
31, 2001, respectively.
Cash provided from operations increased to $19.4 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2002, from $17.3 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. The increase is primarily the result of increases in net
income, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, which can be
attributed to the timing of cash payments for medical and insurance claims.
Cash used in investing activities increased to $28.0 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002 from $15.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2001. This increase was the result of $16.1 million in
acquisitions in 2002, compared to $1.0 million in 2001. Fixed asset additions
totaled $11.9 million and $14.5 million, respectively, in the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001. Of the $11.9 million in additions
during 2002, approximately $7.5 million relates to new family centers, with the
remaining balance primarily utilized for the refurbishment of existing centers.
Management expects the current level of center related fixed
14
asset spending to remain the same or increase slightly over the remainder of
2002 and in 2003.
Cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2002 as compared to $1.4 million in cash used by financing
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The Company received
$2.2 million for stock option exercises in the nine months ended September 30,
2002, as compared to $1.6 million in the same period in 2001. In the nine
months ended September 30, 2002, the Company had net borrowings on its line of
credit totaling $400,000 and payments of long-term debt totaling $307,000.
During the same period in 2001, the Company repaid $1.7 million on its line of
credit and made payments of $1.3 million of short and long-term debt. The
Company also purchased approximately 22,000 shares of its common stock for
$479,000 in 2002, pursuant to its share repurchase program.
Management believes that funds provided by operations and the Company's
existing cash and cash equivalent balances and borrowings available under its
line of credit will be adequate to meet planned operating and capital
expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. However, if the Company were
to make any significant acquisition(s) or investments in the purchase of
facilities for new or existing child care and early education centers, it may
be necessary for the Company to obtain additional debt or equity financing.
There can be no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain such
financing on reasonable terms, if at all.
OTHER REPORTING MATTERS
The Company considered the disclosure requirements of FR-60 regarding critical
accounting policies and FR-61 regarding liquidity and capital resources,
certain trading activities, and related party/certain other disclosures, and
concluded that nothing materially changed during the quarter that would warrant
further disclosure under these releases.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -
In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 145, "Rescission of
FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and
Technical Corrections." This statement eliminates the requirement that gains
and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material,
classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect.
However, an entity would not be prohibited from classifying such gains and
losses as extraordinary items so long as they are both unusual in nature and
infrequent in occurrence. This provision of SFAS No.145 will be effective for
the Company as of the beginning of fiscal year 2003. This statement also amends
SFAS No.13, "Accounting for Leases" and certain other authoritative
pronouncements to make technical corrections or clarifications. SFAS No.145
will be effective related to the amendment of SFAS No.13 for all transactions
occurring after May 15, 2002. All other provisions of SFAS No.145 will be
effective for financial statements issued after May 15, 2002. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of implementing SFAS No.145.
15
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities", which nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination
Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred
in a Restructuring)." SFAS No.146 requires a liability for a cost associated
with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at its
fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred. If fair value
cannot be reasonably estimated, the liability shall be recognized initially in
the period in which fair value can be reasonably estimated. The provisions of
SFAS No.146 will be effective for the Company prospectively for exit or
disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company is in the
process of assessing the impact of SFAS No.146 on its consolidated financial
statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
There have been no material changes in the Company's investment strategies,
types of financial instruments held or the risks associated with such
instruments which would materially alter the market risk disclosures made in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
The Company's exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is
primarily the result of foreign subsidiaries domiciled in the United Kingdom
and Ireland. The Company does not currently use financial derivative
instruments to hedge foreign currency exchange rate risks associated with its
foreign subsidiaries.
The assets and liabilities of the Company's Canada, Ireland, and United Kingdom
subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at
the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average
exchange rates prevailing during the period. The cumulative translation effects
for the subsidiaries are included in cumulative translation adjustment in
stockholders' equity.
The Company believes that the United Kingdom acquisitions in 2002 do not
materially alter the disclosures on foreign currency exchange risk made in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Within 90 days prior to the date of this quarterly report (the "Evaluation
Date"), the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's "disclosure
controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Rules 13a-14(c) and 15(d)-14(c)). Based on that evaluation, these officers have
concluded that as of the Evaluation Date the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective.
16
Changes in Internal Controls.
There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures subsequent to the Evaluation Date.
