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. 5 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. 8 Part II - Other Information ITEM 4.
