NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 — Basis of Accounting

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the unaudited records of Hexcel Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Hexcel” or “the Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the balance sheet of the Company as of March 31, 2003 and the results of operations and cash flows for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002.  The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2002 was derived from the audited 2002 consolidated balance sheet.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2).

 

Note 2 – Refinancing of Capital Structure

 

On March 19, 2003, the Company completed the refinancing of its balance sheet with the issuance of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock for $125.0 million in cash, the issuance of $125.0 million principal amount of 9-7/8% senior secured notes due 2008, and the establishment of a new $115.0 million senior secured credit facility due 2008.  The proceeds from the sale of the convertible preferred stock have been used to provide for the redemption of the Company’s 7% convertible subordinated notes due 2003 and to reduce senior debt outstanding under the Company’s then existing senior credit facility.  The remaining advances under the then existing senior credit facility, after the application of the equity proceeds, were repaid with proceeds from the issuance of the 9-7/8% senior secured notes due 2008 and modest drawings under the new senior secured credit facility.  In connection with the refinancing, the Company incurred a $4.0 million loss on early retirement of debt due to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs relating to the former senior credit facility and the 7% convertible subordinated notes due 2003.  Refer to Notes 6 and 7 for further information on the refinancing transactions.

 

Note 3 - Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”).  Accordingly, compensation expense is not recognized when options are granted at the fair market value on the date of grant.  However, the Company does recognize compensation expense for restricted stock and similar stock-based plans over the defined vesting periods.  As of March 31, 2003, the Company had several on-going stock-based compensation plans, including stock options, restricted stock and various forms of restricted stock unit awards.

 

The Company has elected to continue following APB 25 to account for its stock-based compensation plans.  The effects on net loss and net loss per common share as if the Company had applied the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial

Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“FAS 123”) for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:

As reported		$	(0.10	)	$	(0.24	)
Pro forma		$	(0.12	)	$	(0.28	)

 

No tax benefit was recognized on stock-based compensation expense as the Company establishes a non-cash valuation allowance attributable to currently generated U.S. net operating losses (refer to Note 12).  Stock-based compensation expense was not material to European operations.

 

The weighted average fair value of stock options granted during the first quarter of 2003 and 2002 was $1.77 and $1.96, respectively, and estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Note 5 - Business Consolidation and Restructuring Programs

 

Business consolidation and restructuring liabilities as of March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, and activity of the Company’s two remaining programs for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, consisted of the following:

 

(In millions)		Employee Severance			Facility & Equipment			Total

Balance as of March 31, 2003		$	6.4		$	2.0		$	8.4

 

November 2001 Program

 

During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company announced a program to restructure its business operations as a result of its revised business outlook for build rate reductions in commercial aircraft production through 2003 and due to the continued depressed business conditions in the electronics market.  For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company recognized $0.2 million of business consolidation and restructuring expenses related to this program for equipment relocation and re-qualification costs that are expensed as incurred.  In addition, $0.3 million of additional severance expense was recognized in the first quarter of 2003 due to a change in estimate, while accrued liabilities for facility and equipment was reduced by $0.2 million.

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2002, the Company recognized $0.3 million expense for equipment relocation and re-qualification costs that are expensed as incurred.

 

Business consolidation and restructuring activities for this program consisted of the following:

 

(In millions)		Employee Severance			Facility & Equipment			Total
Balance as of December 31, 2002		$	7.8		$	2.5		$	10.3
Current period expenses		—			0.2			0.2

Cash expenditures		(1.9		)	(0.5		)	(2.4		)
Balance as of March 31, 2003		$	6.2		$	2.0		$	8.2

 

September 1999 Program

 

As a result of several substantial business acquisitions, the Company initiated a business consolidation program in September 1999.  The primary purpose of the program was to integrate acquired assets and operations into the Company, and to close or restructure insufficiently profitable facilities and activities.  Due to aerospace industry requirements to “qualify” specific equipment and manufacturing processes for certain products, some business consolidation actions have taken over three years to complete.  These qualification requirements increase the complexity, cost and time of moving equipment and rationalizing manufacturing activities.  For both of the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company recognized $0.4 million of business consolidation expenses related to this program for equipment relocation and re-qualification costs that are expensed as incurred.

Note 6 – Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On March 19, 2003, Hexcel received $119.8 million, after expenses of $5.2 million, from the issuance of 125,000 shares of a series A convertible preferred stock and 125,000 shares of a series B convertible preferred stock.  Hexcel issued 77,875 shares of each series to affiliates of Berkshire Partners LLC and Greenbriar Equity Group LLC.  Separately, Hexcel issued 47,125 shares of each series to investment funds controlled by affiliates of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., a related party.  Upon issuance, the total number of Hexcel’s outstanding common shares, including potential shares issuable upon conversion of both of the new series of convertible preferred stocks, increased from approximately 38.6 million shares to approximately 88.4 million shares.  In addition, an increase in the common shares authorized for issuance from 100.0 million shares to 200.0 million shares was approved by the shareholders on March 18, 2003.

 

The series A and the series B convertible preferred stocks are mandatorily redeemable on January 22, 2010 for cash or for common stock at the Company’s discretion.  Each share of series A and series B preferred stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, into that number of shares of common stock equal to the stated value of the share of preferred stock divided by the conversion price.  The stated value of each share of series A preferred stock is $1,000, the stated value of each share of series B preferred stock is $195.618, and the conversion price for each share of preferred stock is $3.00.  Both the series A preferred stock and series B preferred stock will automatically be converted into common stock if the closing trading price of the common stock for any period of 60 consecutive trading days ending after March 19, 2006 exceeds $9.00 per share.  The preferred stockholders are entitled to vote on an as converted basis with Hexcel’s common stockholders.

 

Commencing on the third anniversary of the original issuance, holders of the series A convertible preferred stock will be entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 6% of the “accrued value.”  Accrued value is calculated as an amount equal to the sum of $1,195.618 per share and the aggregate of all accrued but unpaid dividends.  Dividends are payable quarterly and may be paid in cash or added to the accrued value of the preferred stock, at the Company’s option.  The series B preferred stock does not accrue dividends.

 

The issuance of the series A and series B convertible preferred stock will result in certain deductions being recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations until such time as the preferred stock is converted to Hexcel common stock or redeemed.  These deductions are reported under a caption “Deemed preferred dividends and accretion” and represent a reduction of net income (loss) in arriving at net income (loss) available to common shareholders.  For the first quarter of 2003, the Company recognized deemed preferred dividends and accretion of $0.5 million.

 

“Deemed preferred dividends and accretion” is composed of four components:  accrued dividends, discount, beneficial conversion feature, and deferred issuance costs.  The accretion of these components is a non-cash expense at the time of recognition.  However, cash may be utilized to pay future dividends and/or for the redemption of the preferred stock.  In addition, in each instance, the components are accrued over the life of the convertible preferred stock using the effective interest method.

 

9

 

The beneficial conversion feature to be accreted over the term of the convertible preferred stock has been estimated as $23.4 million.  The beneficial conversion feature is the difference between the proceeds received from the issuance of the series A and series B convertible preferred stock, net of commitment fees, and the deemed fair market value at the closing of the Company’s common stock into which the series A and series B convertible preferred stock is convertible.  The deemed fair market value of the Company’s common stock was calculated based upon the average price of the Company’s common stock on March 19, 2003 of $2.93 per share.

Senior Secured Credit Facility, due 2008

 

On March 19, 2003, Hexcel entered into a $115.0 million asset-backed senior secured credit facility (“Senior Secured Credit Facility”) with a new syndicate of lenders led by Fleet Capital Corporation as agent.  The credit facility matures on March 31, 2008.  In addition to Hexcel Corporation, the borrowers under the credit facility are Hexcel’s operating subsidiaries in the U.K., Austria and Germany.  The credit facility provides for borrowings of U.S. dollars, Pound Sterling and Euro currencies, including the issuance of letters of credit, with the amount available to each borrower dependent on the borrowing base of that borrower and its subsidiaries.  For Hexcel Corporation and the U.K. borrower, the borrowing base is determined by an agreed percentage of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory, subject to certain reserves.  The borrowing base of each of the Austrian and German borrowers is based on an agreed percentage of eligible accounts receivable, subject to certain reserves.  Borrowings under the new facility bear interest at a floating rate based on either the agent’s defined “prime rate” plus a margin that can vary from 0.75% to 3.25% or LIBOR plus a margin that can vary from 2.25% to 3.25%.  The margin in effect for a borrowing at any given time depends on the Company’s fixed charge ratio and the currency denomination of such borrowing.  The credit facility also requires the payment of customary fees and expenses.

 

All obligations under the credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in accounts receivable, inventory and cash and cash equivalents of Hexcel Corporation and its material domestic subsidiaries.  In addition, all obligations under the credit facility are secured by a pledge of 65% of the stock of Hexcel’s French and U.K. first-tier holding companies and certain foreign intercompany notes.  This pledge of foreign stock and these foreign intercompany notes is on an equal basis with a substantially identical pledge of such stock and foreign intercompany notes given to secure the

 

10

 

obligations under the senior secured notes.  The obligations of the U.K. borrower are secured by the accounts receivable, inventory, and cash and cash equivalents of the U.K. borrower.  The obligations of the Austrian and German borrowers are secured by the accounts receivable of the Austrian and German borrowers, respectively.

 

Hexcel is required to maintain various financial covenant ratios throughout the term of the credit facility.  These financial covenants set maximum values for the Company’s leverage ratios for any fiscal quarter-end and capital expenditures, and set minimum values for the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio for any fiscal quarter-end.  These financial maintenance covenants can be found in the credit agreement, which was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1).

 

The credit facility also contains limitations on, among other things, incurring debt, granting liens, making investments, making restricted payments, entering into transactions with affiliates and prepaying subordinated debt.  The credit facility contains other customary terms relating to, among other things, representations and warranties, additional covenants and events of default.

 

At March 31, 2003, the Company had borrowings of $12.0 million under this facility.  After taking into account a borrowing base of $77.8 million, less advances, letters of credit outstanding and other adjustments, the Company had undrawn revolver and overdraft availability under the facility of $40.0 million as of March 31, 2003.

 

Hexcel is able to issue letters of credit up to $50.0 million under this facility.  At March 31, 2003, Hexcel had issued letters of credit totaling $25.8 million, of which $11.1 million supported a loan to the Company’s BHA Aero Composite Parts Co., Ltd. joint venture in China.  In addition, the Company had a standby letter of credit of $1.3 million outstanding at March 31, 2003, that was separate from this facility.

 

Senior Secured Notes, due 2008

 

Also on March 19, 2003, the Company issued, through a private placement under Rule 144A, $125.0 million of 9-7/8% senior secured notes at a price of 98.952% of face value.  Interest on the notes is payable on April 1^st and October 1^st of each year.  The first payment will be made on October 1, 2003.  The senior secured notes, due October 1, 2008, are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of Hexcel’s and its domestic subsidiaries’ property, plant and equipment, intangibles, intercompany notes and other obligations receivable, and 100% of the outstanding voting stock of certain of Hexcel’s domestic subsidiaries.  In addition, the senior secured notes are secured by a pledge of 65% of the stock of Hexcel’s French and U.K. first-tier holding companies.  This pledge of foreign stock and the pledge of certain foreign intercompany notes is on an equal basis with a substantially identical pledge of such foreign stock and foreign intercompany notes given to secure the obligations under the Company’s new senior secured credit facility, described above.  The senior secured notes are also guaranteed by Hexcel’s material domestic subsidiaries.  Hexcel has the ability to incur additional debt that would be secured on an equal basis by the collateral securing the senior secured notes.  The amount of additional secured debt that may be incurred is currently limited to $10.0 million, but may increase over time based on a formula relating to the total net book value or the appraised value of Hexcel’s domestic property, plant and equipment pledged to the noteholders.

 

The indenture governing the senior secured notes contains many other terms and conditions, including limitations with respect to asset sales, incurrence of debt, granting of liens, the making of restricted payments and entering into transactions with affiliates.

 

Hexcel has agreed, under a registration rights agreement, to offer to all noteholders the opportunity to exchange their notes for new notes that are substantially identical to the existing notes except that the new

 

11

 

notes will be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and will not have any restrictions on transfer.  In the event that Hexcel cannot effect such an exchange, Hexcel will be required to file a shelf registration statement with the SEC to permit the noteholders to resell their notes generally without restriction.

As of December 31, 2002, the Company had a scheduled debt obligation due August 1, 2003, which, if made, would have caused the Company to violate one or more financial covenants in the Company’s then existing debt agreements.  The Company also required an amendment of its then existing senior credit facility before the end of the first quarter of 2003 to maintain compliance with the financial covenants under that facility.  As the anticipated refinancing of the Company’s capital structure was not completed as of February 28, 2003 (the 2002 financial statement issuance date) and the Company had not obtained an amendment of the aforementioned financial covenants, all debt and capital lease obligations were classified as current at December 31, 2002.

 

As a result of the March 19, 2003 refinancing transactions, the uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to meet its scheduled 2003 debt maturities and comply with its debt covenants have been resolved.  Management believes the Company will comply with the new debt covenants and has adequate liquidity available to finance operations beyond December 31, 2003.  With these uncertainties resolved, substantially all of the Company’s debt was reclassified to long-term at March 31, 2003 reflecting the new scheduled debt maturities.

the March 31, 2003 computation of diluted net loss per common share, as it was also anti-dilutive.  In the first quarter of 2003, proceeds from the sale of the mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock were used to provide for the redemption of the remaining $46.9 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes, due 2003.

 

The assumed conversion of the Company’s convertible subordinated notes, due 2003, exchangeable for 3.0 million common shares, convertible subordinated debentures, due 2011, exchangeable for 0.8 million common shares, and 8.9 million shares underlying outstanding stock options and restricted stock units were excluded from the computations of diluted net loss per common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, as they were anti-dilutive.

 

Note 9 - Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive income (loss) represents net income (loss) and other gains and losses affecting shareholders’ equity (deficit) that are not reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.  The components of comprehensive loss for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 were as follows:

 

		Quarter Ended March 31,
(In millions)		2003			2002
Net loss available to common shareholders		$	(3.7	)	$	(9.2	)
Currency translation adjustment		3.3			(5.0		)
Net unrealized gains or losses on financial instruments		1.5			(0.3		)
Comprehensive income (loss)		$	1.1		$	(14.5	)

 

Note 10 - Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Foreign Currency Forward Exchange Contracts

 

A number of the Company’s European subsidiaries are exposed to the impact of exchange rate volatility between the U.S. dollar and the subsidiaries’ functional currencies, being either the Euro or the British pound sterling.  To minimize this exposure, Hexcel has entered into a number of foreign currency forward exchange contracts to exchange U.S. dollars for Euros at fixed rates on specified dates through March 2005.  The aggregate notional amount of these contracts was $45.9 million at March 31, 2003 and $58.0 million at December 31, 2002.  The purpose of these contracts is to hedge a portion of the forecasted transactions of European subsidiaries under long-term sales contracts with certain customers.  These contracts are expected to provide the Company with a more balanced matching of future cash receipts and expenditures by currency, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  For the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, hedge ineffectiveness was immaterial and the fair value of the foreign currency cash flow hedges recognized as a component of “accumulated other comprehensive loss” was a net gain of $4.9 million and a net loss of $6.2 million, respectively.  Over the next twelve months, approximately $2.8 million of unrealized gains recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss are expected to be reclassified into earnings as the hedged sales are recorded.

 

Note 11 - Segment Information

 

The financial results for Hexcel’s business segments are prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which Hexcel management internally segregates financial information for the purposes of assisting in making internal operating decisions.  Hexcel evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on operating income, and generally accounts

 

13

 

for intersegment sales based on arm’s length prices.  Corporate and certain other expenses are not allocated to the operating segments, except to the extent that the expense can be directly attributable to the business segment.

 

Financial information for the Company’s segments for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, is as follows:

 

(In millions)		Reinforcements			Composites			Structures			Corporate & Other			Total

Note 12 – Taxes

 

The Company’s tax provision of $2.3 million and $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2003 and 2002, respectively, was primarily for taxes on European income, and reflects the impact of a non-cash valuation allowance attributable to currently generated U.S. net operating losses.  The Company will continue to increase its tax provision rate through the establishment of a non-cash valuation allowance attributable to currently generated U.S. net operating losses until such time as the U.S. operations generate income in future years to utilize the net operating losses in full.

 

The U.S. and European components of income (loss) before income taxes and the provision for income taxes for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:

 

		Quarter Ended March 31, 2003
		U.S.			Europe			Total
Income (loss) before income taxes		$	(7.2	)	$	6.7		$	(0.5	)
Provision for income taxes		0.1			2.2			2.3
Income (loss) before equity in losses of affiliated companies		$	(7.3	)	$	4.5		$	(2.8	)

Provision for income taxes		0.1			2.4			2.5
Income (loss) before equity in losses of affiliated companies		$	(11.3	)	$	4.5		$	(6.8	)

 

Net Operating Loss Carryforwards

 

As of March 31, 2003, Hexcel had net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal and Belgium income tax purposes of approximately $92.3 million and $7.2 million, respectively.  As a result of the Company’s issuance of mandatorily redeemable convertible preferred stock (described in Note 6), the Company has experienced an “ownership change” pursuant to IRC Section 382, which will limit the Company’s ability to utilize net operating losses created prior to March 19, 2003 against future U.S. taxable income to $5.3 million annually.

 

Note 13 – Investments in Affiliated Companies

 

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”).  FIN 46 explains how to identify variable interest entities and how an enterprise assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide whether to consolidate that entity.  Accordingly, FIN 46 requires existing unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their “primary beneficiaries” if the entities do not effectively disperse “equity investment risks” among the parties involved.  Variable interest entities that effectively disperse risks are not to be consolidated.  However, the following additional disclosures are required for an enterprise that holds a significant interest in a “variable interest entity” but is not the primary beneficiary:  (i) the nature of its involvement and when the involvement began, (ii) the nature, purpose, size and activities of the entity, and (iii) the enterprise’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement.

 

The Company has considered its equity investments and believes that certain of these investments would be considered “variable interest entities.”  However, management believes that the Company is not the primary beneficiary of such entities, and therefore, would not be required to consolidate these entities in its accounts.  The Company has made, below, the necessary additional disclosures.

In 1999, Hexcel, Boeing International Holdings, Ltd. and China Aviation Industry Corporation I formed a joint venture, BHA Aero Composite Parts Co., Ltd. (“BHA Aero”), to manufacture composite parts for secondary structures and interior applications for commercial aircraft.  Hexcel has a 33.3% equity ownership interest in this joint venture, which is located in Tianjin, China.  BHA Aero began deliveries in the first half of 2002 with no significant revenues to date.  Also in 1999, Hexcel formed another joint venture, Asian Composites Manufacturing Sdn. Bhd. (“Asian Composites”), with Boeing Worldwide Operations Limited, Sime Link Sdn. Bhd., and Malaysia Helicopter Services Bhd. (now known as Naluri Berhad), to manufacture composite parts for secondary structures for commercial aircraft.  Hexcel has a 25% equity ownership interest in this joint venture, which is located in Alor Setar, Malaysia.  Asian Composites began shipping composite structures to customers during the second half of 2001, and currently has less than $2.5 million in quarterly revenues.  At March 31, 2003, Hexcel had an equity investment balance of $3.7 million and an aggregate receivable balance of $2.8 million related to these joint ventures.  In addition, the Company has an outstanding letter of credit of $11.1 million supporting a loan to BHA Aero.  Hexcel has no other significant exposures to loss with BHA Aero and Asian Composites.

 

As part of an acquisition in 1998, the Company obtained equity ownership interests in three joint ventures which manufacture reinforcement products: a 43.6% share in Interglas Technologies AG (“Interglas”), headquartered in Germany; a 43.3% share in Asahi-Schwebel Co., Ltd. (“Asahi-Schwebel”), headquartered in Japan; and a 50% share in Clark-Schwebel Tech-Fab Company, headquartered in the United States.  Clark-Schwebel Tech-Fab Company was converted into a limited liability company on March 27, 2003 and changed its legal name to TechFab LLC (“TechFab”).  Interglas and Asahi-Schwebel are fiberglass fabric producers serving the European and Asian manufacturers of printed circuit board laminates and other reinforcement product applications.  In 2001, Hexcel recognized an impairment charge for its entire equity investment in Interglas, as the entity’s net losses were deemed to be other than temporary.  In 2002, Hexcel agreed with its Asian Electronics venture partner to restructure its minority interest in Asahi-Schwebel.  Under the terms of the agreement, the Company reduced its ownership interest in the joint venture from 43.3% to 33.3% and received cash proceeds of $10.0 million.  The agreement also included, among other matters, a put option in favor of the Company to sell and a call option in favor of the Company’s joint venture partner to purchase the Company’s remaining ownership interest in the joint venture for $23.0 million.  The options are simultaneously effective for a six-month period beginning July 1, 2003.  Reflecting these terms, the Company wrote-down the carrying value of its remaining equity investment in this joint venture to its estimated fair market value of $23.0 million.  TechFab manufactures non-woven reinforcement materials for roofing, construction, sail cloth and other specialty applications.  TechFab has approximately $25 million in annual revenues, generating approximately $3 million in net income.  At March 31, 2003, Hexcel had an equity investment balance in TechFab of $6.7 million.  Hexcel has no other significant exposures to loss with these joint ventures.

 

Lastly, Hexcel owns a 45.3% equity interest in DIC-Hexcel Limited (“DHL”), a joint venture formed in 1990 with Dainippon Ink and Chemicals, Inc. (“DIC”).  This joint venture is located in Japan, and produces and sells prepregs, honeycomb and decorative laminates using technology licensed from Hexcel and DIC.  DHL has annual revenues of approximately $10 million without any notable net income.  Due to DHL’s recognition of net losses in prior years, no equity investment balance remains for DHL at March 31, 2003.  However, Hexcel is contingently liable to pay DIC up to $1.5 million with respect to DHL’s debt under certain defined circumstances through January 31, 2004, unless renewed.  This contingent liability will cease upon DHL’s repayment of the underlying loan.

Note 14 – Product Warranty

 

The Company provides for an estimated amount of product warranty at the time revenue is recognized.  This estimated amount is provided by product and based on historical warranty experience.  Warranty expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, and accrued warranty cost, included in “other accrued liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 was as follows:
