AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (in thousands, except share data) (unaudited) Note 1. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Henry Schein, Inc. and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"). In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. These consolidated financial statements are condensed and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 1995. The Company follows the same accounting policies in preparation of interim reports. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 28, 1996. Note 2. Business Acquisitions During 1995, the Company acquired fourteen healthcare distribution businesses including, on July 7, 1995, the distribution business of The Veratex Corporation ("Veratex"), a national direct marketer of medical, dental and veterinary products. Veratex had net sales of approximately $19,853 for the six months ended July 1, 1995. The 1995 acquisitions, except as set forth below, were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. One acquisition was from an affiliate and has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, with carry-over of predecessor basis with respect to the affiliate's proportionate share of net assets. Operations of these businesses have been included in the consolidated financial statements from their respective acquisition dates. The Company has completed ten acquisitions during the nine months ended September 28, 1996. These acquisitions included three medical supply distributors, five domestic dental supply distributors and two international dental supply distributors. These acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and had net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 of approximately $67,000. The total amount of cash paid and the value of the shares of common stock issued in connection with the 1996 acquisitions was approximately $30,635 and $1,363, respectively. No single acquisition was material. The excess of the acquisition costs over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a period not to exceed 30 years. 6 HENRY SCHEIN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (in thousands, except share data) (unaudited) Note 2. Business Acquisitions (cont'd) The summarized unaudited pro forma results of operations set forth below for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 and September 30, 1995 assume the acquisitions occurred as of the beginning of each of these periods. Nine Months Ended ----------------------------- September 28, September 30, 1996 1995 ------------- ------------- Net sales ........................................ $640,573 $ 532,230 Net income (loss) ................................ 12,327 (9,122) Pro forma net income, reflecting adjustment for special management compensation ................ -- 6,375 Pro forma net income per common share ............ 0.61 0.52 Pro forma net income per common share, including acquisitions, may not be indicative of actual results, primarily because the pro forma earnings include historical results of operations of acquired entities and do not reflect any cost savings that may result from the Company's integration efforts. Note 3. Public Offering On June 21, 1996, the Company sold 3,734,375 shares and certain of its stockholders sold 2,812,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company in a public offering (the "Offering") at a price to the public of $35.00 per share, netting proceeds to the Company, after underwriting discounts and expenses, of approximately $124,070. Proceeds from the Offering were used to (i) repay $34,600 outstanding under the Company's revolving credit agreement, (ii) finance 1996 acquisitions totaling $30,635 and (iii) repay a $2.4 million note payable incurred in connection with a 1995 acquisition; the remaining proceeds have been and will continue to be used for working capital needs and for general corporate purposes, including financing possible additional acquisitions. Note 4. Supplemental Net Income per Share Supplemental net income per share for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 was $0.60. For this calculation, the weighted average number of common shares includes the shares assumed to provide the proceeds, at the Offering price (see Note 3), needed to retire average revolving credit borrowing and other debt for the period from the beginning of the year (or the date the debt was incurred) to the respective retirement date. The supplemental net income excludes financing and interest expenses of the debt. 7 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended September 28, 1996 compared to Three Months Ended September 30 ,1995 Net sales increased $55.8 million, or 35.6%, to $212.5 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $156.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. The Company estimates that approximately 19.1% of the net sales growth was due to internal growth, while the remaining 16.5% was due to acquisitions. Of the $55.8 million increase, approximately $25.5 million represented a 30.0% increase in the Company's dental business, $20.9 million represented a 63.0% increase in its medical business, $8.7 million represented a 33.9% increase in its international business, and $1.4 million represented a 17.7% increase in the Company's veterinary business. Technology net sales decreased $0.7 million, or 14.3%. The increase in dental net sales was primarily the result of the effectiveness of the Company's integrated sales and marketing approach (which coordinates the efforts of its field sales consultants with its direct marketing and telesales personnel), acquisitions, continued success in the Company's target marketing programs and increased sales in the large dental equipment market, which was favorably effected by the Company's introduction of its new Empire line of Schein Brand equipment. The increase in medical net sales was primarily due to acquisitions, increased net sales to renal dialysis centers and net sales to customers enrolled in the AMA Purchase Link program. In the international market, 22.6% of the increase in net sales was due to acquisitions, with the balance attributable to increased unit volume growth. In the veterinary market, the increase in net sales was primarily due to increased account penetration. In the technology market, the enhancement to the Company's Easy Dental(R) for Windows product, which was scheduled to be released in September, is expected to be released in the fourth quarter of this year. Had the enhancement been released in September, the Company believes the technology sales would have been comparable with 1995 net sales for the same period. The Company believes that for the balance of 1996, technology net sales will be below the 1995 net sales level. Gross profit increased by $13.8 million, or 28.7%, to $61.9 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $48.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995, while gross profit margin decreased to 29.1% from 30.7%. The $13.8 million increase in gross profit was primarily due to increased sales volume and acquisitions. The decrease in gross profit margin was primary due to lower technology sales as a percentage of total net sales and other sales mix changes. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $11.4 million, or 26.6%, to $54.3 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $42.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. Selling and shipping expenses increased by $10.1 million, or 35.9%, to $38.2 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $28.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. As a percentage of net sales, selling and shipping expenses increased 0.1% to 18.0% for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from 17.9% for the three months ended September 30, 1995. General and administrative expenses increased $1.3 million, or 8.8%, to $16.1 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $14.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995, primarily as a result of acquisitions. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased 1.8% to 7.6% for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from 9.4% for the three months ended September 30, 1995 due primarily to the relatively fixed nature of general and administrative expenses when compared to the 35.6% increase in net sales volume for the same period and the Company's ability to leverage its core infrastructure. 8 Other income (expense) decreased by $1.7 million, or 94.4%, to $0.1 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in average borrowings, which were partially paid off with proceeds from the Company's initial public offering in November 1995 and its follow-on offering in June 1996, as well as an increase in interest income on short-term investments. Equity in earnings of affiliates increased by $0.3 million, or 100.0%, to $0.6 million for the three months ended September 28, 1996 from $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. This increase was primarily due to two acquisitions which occurred during the fourth quarter of 1995. For the three months ended September 28, 1996, the Company's provision for taxes was $2.9 million, while pre-tax income was $7.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 38.2%. The difference between the effective tax rate and the Federal statutory rate is primarily the result of state income taxes. For the three months ended September 30, 1995, the Company's provision for taxes was $1.4 million, while pre-tax income was $3.4 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 41.2%. The difference between the 1995 effective tax rate and the Federal statutory rate relates primarily to state income taxes and non-deductible net losses of certain foreign subsidiaries which, at that time, were not included in the Company's consolidated tax return. Nine Months Ended September 28, 1996 compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995 Net sales increased $160.1 million, or 37.0%, to $592.6 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $432.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The Company estimates that approximately 20.2% of the net sales growth represented internal growth, while the remaining 16.8% was due to acquisitions. Of the $160.1 million increase, approximately $80.6 million represented a 35.0% increase in the Company's dental business, $47.3 million represented 53.6% increase in its medical business, $27.7 million represented a 36.3% increase in its international business and $4.9 million represented a 22.4% increase in the Company's veterinary business. Technology net sales decreased $0.4 million, or 2.5%. The increase in the dental net sales was primarily the result of the effectiveness of the Company's integrated sales and marketing approach (which coordinates the efforts of its field sales consultants with its direct marketing and telesales personnel), acquisitions and increased sales in the large dental equipment market. The increase in the medical net sales was primarily due to the effects of acquisitions, increased net sales to renal dialysis centers and increased net sales to customer enrolled in the AMA Purchase Link program. In the international market, 23.4% of the increase in net sales was due to acquisitions and the balance was due to increased unit volume growth. In the veterinary market, the increase in net sales was primarily due to increased account penetration. In the technology market, the Company has experienced a lengthening of the sales cycle for migrating "DOS" customers to a Windows product, and a delay in the release of the enhancement to the Company's Easy Dental(R) for Windows product causing net sales to decrease slightly from last year's level. The Company expects to release the enhancement to the Company's Easy Dental (R) for Windows product in the fourth quarter of this year. The Company believes that for the balance of 1996, technology net sales will be below the 1995 net sales levels. 9 Gross profit increased by $44.3 million, or 33.9% to $174.8 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $130.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, while gross profit margin decreased to 29.5% from 30.2%. The $44.3 million increase in gross profit was primarily due to increased sales volume and acquisitions. The decrease in gross profit margin was primary due to lower technology sales as a percentage of total net sales and other sales mix changes. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $38.4 million, or 32.7%, to $156.0 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $117.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. Selling and shipping expenses increased by $31.1 million, or 41.0%, to $107.0 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $75.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. As a percentage of net sales, selling and shipping expenses increased 0.6% to 18.1% for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from 17.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The increase in selling and shipping expenses as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to an increase in the number of field sales consultants and equipment sales and service centers. General and administrative expenses increased $7.3 million, or 17.5%, to $49.0 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $41.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 primarily as a result of acquisitions. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased 1.3% to 8.3% for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from 9.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 due primarily to the relatively fixed nature of general and administrative expenses when compared to the 37.0% increase in net sales volume for the same period. Other income (expense) decreased by $3.0 million, or 71.4%, to $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in average borrowings which were partially paid off with proceeds from the Company's initial public offering in November 1995 and its follow-on offering in June 1996, as well as an increase in interest income on short-term investments and the recognition of imputed interest resulting from certain customers' extended payment terms. Equity in earnings of affiliates increased by $0.5 million to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 from $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. This increase was primarily due to two acquisitions which occurred during the fourth quarter of 1995. For the nine months ended September 28, 1996, the Company's provision for taxes was $6.7 million, while pre-tax income was $17.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 38.1%. The difference between the effective tax rate and the Federal statutory rate is primarily a result of state income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Company's provision for taxes was $3.7 million, while the pre-tax loss was $6.8 million. The difference between the tax provision and the amount that would have been recoverable by applying the statutory rate to the pre-tax loss was attributable substantially to the non-deductibility for income tax purposes of the $15.5 million appreciation in the value of the stock issued to senior management. On a pro-forma basis, pre-tax income was $8.7 million, resulting in a pro-forma effective tax rate of 42.5%. The difference between the pro-forma effective tax rate and the Federal statutory rate relates primarily to state income taxes and non-deductible net losses of certain foreign subsidiaries which were not included in the Company's consolidated tax return. 10 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's principal capital requirements have been to fund (a) working capital needs resulting from increased sales, extended payment terms on various products and special inventory buying opportunities, (b) capital expenditures, and (c) acquisitions. Since sales have traditionally been strongest during the fourth quarter and special inventory buying opportunities have traditionally been most prevalent just before the end of the year, the Company's working capital requirements are generally higher from the end of the third quarter to the end of the first quarter of the following year. The Company has financed its business primarily through revolving credit facilities and stock issuances. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 of $33.2 million resulted primarily from a net increase in working capital of $50.2 million offset in part by net income, adjusted for non-cash charges relating primarily to depreciation and amortization, of $17.0 million. The increase in working capital was primarily due to (i) a $36.3 million increase in accounts receivable resulting from increased sales and extended payment terms, (ii) a $4.6 million increase in inventory, (iii) a $5.2 million increase in other current assets, and (iv) a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued expenses of $4.2 million. The Company anticipates future increases in working capital as a result of its continued sales growth. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 of $42.2 million resulted primarily from cash used to make acquisitions of $30.6 million and capital expenditures of $8.6 million. The increased amount of capital expenditures over the comparable prior year period was due to the development of new order entry and accounts receivable systems, as well as expenditures for additional operating facilities. The Company expects that it will continue to incur capital expenditures for the development of its new order entry and accounts receivable systems. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 28, 1996 of $116.7 million resulted primarily from the net cash proceeds of a public offering of its common stock (completed on June 21, 1996) of $124.1 million, partially offset by net debt repayments of approximately $6.9 million. A balloon payment of approximately $3.7 million is due on October 31, 1997 under a term loan associated with a foreign acquisition. In addition, with respect to certain acquisitions and joint ventures, holders of minority interest in the acquired entities or ventures have the right at certain times to require the Company to acquire their interest at either fair market value or a formula price based on earnings of the entity. The Company's cash and cash equivalents as of September 28, 1996 of $48.9 million are invested primarily in short-term tax exempt securities rated AAA by Moodys (or an equivalent rating). These investments have staggered maturity dates and have a high degree of liquidity since the securities are actively traded in public markets. The Company entered into a $65.0 million, four-year revolving credit facility on July 5, 1995. Borrowings under the facility were $14.5 million at September 28, 1996. At September 28, 1996, this facility was unsecured. In addition, the Company's subsidiaries have revolving credit facilities that total approximately $11.1 million. 11 The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents of $48.9 million as of September 28, 1996, its anticipated cash flow from operations, its ability to access public debt and equity markets, and the availability of funds under its existing credit agreements will provide it with liquidity sufficient to meet its capital needs for at least the forthcoming year.
