NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Management Opinion
In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal,
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of results for such
periods. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been omitted. These consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1993.
2. Other (Income)/Expense, Net
Included in other (income)/expense, net for the six months ended June 30
are: currency transactions, $.5 million income in 1994 and $2.3 million income
in 1993, pre-receivable sale, $.3 million income in 1994 and $1.0 million
expense in 1993, amortization of debt issuance costs and loan origination fees,
$.4 million in 1994 and $.5 million in 1993 and other miscellaneous
(income)/expenses, none of which are significant, in 1994 and 1993.
Included in other (income)/expense, net for the three months ended June 30
are: currency transactions, $1.0 million income in 1994 and $1.5 million income
in 1993, pre-receivable sale $.5 million income in 1994 and $.6 million expense
in 1993, amortization of debt issuance costs and loan origination fees, $.2
million in 1994 and 1993, and other miscellaneous (income)/expenses, none of
which are significant, in 1994 and 1993.
3. Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share on common stock are computed using the weighted average
number of shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock outstanding during each
year. Options granted under the Company's stock option plans were not dilutive
at June 30, 1994 and 1993. The convertible subordinated debentures are not
common stock equivalents and will not affect primary earnings per share.
Further, the convertible subordinated debentures were not dilutive at June 30,
1994 and 1993.
4. Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1994 was
43.0% as compared to 39.4% for the same period last year and approximates the
anticipated effective tax rate for the full year 1994. The increase is due
principally to the accrual of net charges associated with prior years resulting
from both U.S. and non-U.S. examinations.
4
5. Debt
The Company has an agreement under which it may sell to a financial
institution up to $40 million of the Company's right to receive certain payments
for goods ordered from the Company. At June 30, there were no amounts sold
under this agreement as compared to $12.0 million at December 31, 1993. At
December 31, 1993, this transaction had the effect of reducing long-term debt
$12.0 million, reducing accounts receivable $5.4 million and increasing accrued
liabilities $6.6 million.
6. Supplementary Cash Flow Information
Interest paid for the six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 was $7.8
million and $7.9 million, respectively.
Taxes paid for the six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 were $12.7
million and $.6 million, respectively.
7. Acquisition
In February 1994, the Company exchanged its 40% equity interests in Brazil
and Argentina for the remaining 60% interest in Mexico. The transaction was
accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the Company has included the
results of operations in its financial statements as of January 1, 1994.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1994 decreased $10.0 million or
6.7% compared to the same period in 1993. The stronger U.S. dollar during the
quarter as compared to 1993 decreased net sales by $3.1 million. The
divestiture of the Company's equipment division (AES) in mid-1993 further
reduced sales by $11.2 million. Excluding these factors, net sales were 2.9%
above second quarter 1993.
The sales growth rate for paper machine clothing in the United States declined
in the second quarter. Canadian sales declined in U. S. dollar equivalent terms
due to approximately flat sales in Canadian dollars and a weaker Canadian dollar
than in the second quarter of last year. In North America, sales growth rates
were also slowed by selective price concessions, mainly for customers entering
into continuous supply agreements for the Company's products. Management
believes that continuous supply agreements are part of a continuing effort by
paper companies to reduce the number of suppliers of paper machine clothing and
that this will be beneficial to Albany International shareholders. The sales
growth rate remained strong in Scandinavia. In Continental Europe, orders imply
that the recession is past and that gradual economic improvement can be
expected over the remainder of the year which should have a positive effect on
the Company's fourth quarter earnings.
Net sales decreased $15.7 million or 5.5% to $271 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 compared with the same period in 1993. Net sales were
reduced by $6.3 million from the effect of a stronger U.S dollar as compared to
the first six months of 1993 and by $20. 6 million resulting from the
divestiture of AES. Excluding these factors, 1994 net sales were 3.9% above
1993 net sales.
The Company continues to gain market share in Forming Fabrics and retain its
Press Fabric market share. While there have not been any significant price
increases in 1994, except for new products and upgrades, some of the Company's
customers have increased prices, particularly in the kraft and pulp grades, and
this could result in better pricing for paper machine clothing in 1995.
Gross profit continued to improve and was 39.1% of net sales for the three
months ended June 30, 1994 as compared to 36.6% for the same period in 1993
bringing the six month result to 38.7% for 1994 as compared to 35.7% for 1993.
Year to date variable costs as a percent of net sales decreased to 32.2% in 1994
from 34.9% in 1993. The improvement is due mainly to plant closings and
workforce reductions, principally in Europe, and the divestiture of AES in June
1993. In addition, the Company's Total Quality Assurance program has resulted
in improved product quality and efficiencies, both of which have contributed to
lower costs.
Selling, technical and general expenses decreased 4.9% for the six months ended
June 30, 1994 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1993. Translation of
non-U.S. currencies into U.S. dollars decreased reported amounts by $1.6 million
due to the stronger U.S. dollar while the divestiture of AES reduced these costs
by $ 6.6 million. Excluding these factors, expenses increased 5.5%. The
Company has not reduced its sales and service efforts as there is increasing
customer demand for service. Management anticipates that this demand will
continue to increase as customers reduce the number of suppliers.
6
Operating income as a percent of net sales increased to 9.3% for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 from 6.3% for the comparable period in 1993 and increased to
10.1% for the three months ended June 30, 1994 as compared to 7.9% for the same
period last year due principally to factors described above. Management is
continuing to review capacity requirements with the intention of further
reducing costs and streamlining operations and anticipates that operating income
as a percent of net sales should continue to improve during the rest of 1994.
However, the magnitude of any improvements will depend on the rate of recovery
of the European economies.
Interest expense decreased as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1993 as
total debt is lower at June 30, 1994 as compared to the same period in 1993.
This reduction is due principally to a 4.1 million share public offering of the
Company's Class A Common Stock during the fourth quarter of 1993 which proceeds
were used to repay floating rate bank debt.
The decrease in other (income)/expense, net was due to currency transactions
which resulted in income of $.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1994
as compared to income of $2.3 million for the same period in 1993 and to no pre-
receivable sales in 1994 which resulted in $1.3 million less expense in 1994 as
compared to 1993.
The tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1994 is 43.0% as compared to
39.4% for the comparable period in 1993 and approximates the anticipated
effective rate for the full year 1994. The rate increase is due principally to
the accrual of net charges associated with prior years resulting from both U. S.
and non- U. S. examinations.
During February 1994 the Company exchanged its 40% equity interests in Brazil
and Argentina for the remaining 60% interest in Mexico. The transaction was
accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the Company has included the
results of operations in its financial statements as of January 1, 1994.
Reported results of Mexico were not significant. The Company's only remaining
equity interest is a 50% partnership in South Africa.
Reasons for changes in the results of operations for the three month period
ended June 30, 1994 as compared to the corresponding period in 1993 are similar
to those which affected the six month comparisons, except where specifically
noted.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
The weakening U. S. dollar during the first six months of 1994 and the purchase
of the remaining Mexican equity interest (discussed above) increased accounts
receivable by $ 11.9 million and increased inventories by $ 5.8 million. In
addition, no accounts receivable were sold at June 30, 1994 as compared to $ 5.4
million sold at December 31, 1993. During the first six months of 1994, the
Company implemented Continuous Supply programs with a number of paper
manufacturers. These relationships require the Company to carry inventory
rather than the customer and provide just in time sourcing to the customers
mill. This has resulted in increased inventories and may result in additional
increases in the near term but should result in more predictable requirements
and lower inventory levels and increased sales in the long term. Management
does not expect to see any significant reductions in inventory until the first
quarter of 1995.
7
The Company has an agreement under which it may sell to a financial institution
up to $40 million of the Company's right to receive certain payments for goods
ordered from the Company. At June 30, 1994, there were no amounts sold under
this agreement as compared to $12.0 million at December 31,1993. At December
31, 1993 this transaction reduced long-term debt by $12.0 million, reduced
accounts receivable by $ 5.4 million and increased accrued liabilities by
$ 6.6 million.
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 1994 were $17.3 million
as compared to $11.7 million for the same period last year. The Company
anticipates that capital expenditures for the full year will approximate $39
million. The Company will finance these expenditures with cash from operations
and existing credit facilities.
Cash dividends of $.0875 per share, were paid in the first two quarters of 1994
and were related to the fourth quarter of 1993 and the first quarter of 1994.
The Company also declared a cash dividend of $.0875 per share for the second
quarter of 1994 which will be paid in the third quarter of this year.
