POOL CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Pool Corporation (the
Company
, which may be referred to as
we, us
or
our
) prepared the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements following U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. As permitted under those rules, we have condensed or omitted certain footnotes and other financial information required for complete financial statements. The Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results including the elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions among our wholly owned subsidiaries.
A description of our significant accounting policies is included in our
2012
Annual Report on Form 10-K. You should read the interim Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes in our Annual Report. The results for our
three and nine
month periods ended
September 30, 2013
are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for our fiscal year ending
December 31, 2013
.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2013, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02,
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
(ASU 2013-02). Under the new standard we are required to disclose the effect on income statement line items from the reclassification of a component of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income. If a reclassification does not impact net income, we are required to disclose the resulting financial statement effects and reference the applicable accounting guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations. We included the required disclosures in Note 4.
Reclassifications
For comparative purposes, we reclassified certain amounts in our
2012
financial statements to conform to the
2013
presentation. These changes included the reclassification of both our deferred tax balances and deferred tax valuation allowances between current and non‑current line items to reflect net presentation on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of
September 30, 2012
. We also changed the presentation of deferred service charge income between Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of
September 30, 2012
.
5
We calculate basic earnings per share (EPS) by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We include outstanding unvested restricted stock awards of our common stock in the basic weighted average share calculation. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effects of other share-based awards. Stock options with exercise prices that are higher than the average market prices of our common stock for the periods presented are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.
The table below presents the computation of earnings per share, including the reconciliation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding (in thousands, except EPS):

In May 2013, we acquired certain distribution assets of B. Shapiro Supply, LLC, a swimming pool and hardscape products distributor with one sales center location in Warminster, Pennsylvania. In March 2013, we acquired certain distribution assets of Swimming Pool Supply Center, Inc., a local swimming pool products distributor with one sales center location in Los Angeles, California. This sales center will operate as a satellite location to more efficiently serve our west Los Angeles customers.
We completed our preliminary acquisition accounting for these acquisitions, subject to adjustments in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreements during the respective one year measurement periods. These acquisitions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In February 2012, we acquired the distribution assets of Ideal Distributors Ltd., a regional swimming pool products distributor with four sales center locations in British Columbia, Canada. In March 2012, we acquired the distribution assets of CCR Distribution, a swimming pool products distributor with one sales center in Ontario, Canada. We completed the acquisition accounting for each of our 2012 acquisitions. These acquisitions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the unrealized gains or losses on our interest rate swap contracts. We use significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs as defined in the accounting guidance) that we believe market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk. Our fair value estimates reflect an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate contracts and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves.

We have five interest rate swap contracts in place to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our unsecured syndicated senior credit facility (the Credit Facility). These swaps convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on borrowings under the Credit Facility. Each of these swap contracts terminates on
October 19, 2016
. The following table provides additional details related to each of these swap contracts:

We recognize any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements from our swap counterparties as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the swaps. We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and we record the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. If our interest rate swaps became ineffective, we would immediately recognize the changes in the estimated fair value of our swaps in earnings. Since inception, we have not recognized any gains or losses on these swaps through income and there has been no effect on income from hedge ineffectiveness.
A portion of the change in the estimated fair value of our interest rate swap contracts between periods relates to future interest expense. Recognition of the change in fair value between periods attributable to accrued interest is reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to Interest expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. These amounts were not material in the first nine months of 2013.
The table below presents the estimated fair value of our interest rate swap contracts (in thousands):

|

We include unrealized losses in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and unrealized gains in Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Failure of our swap counterparties would result in the loss of any potential benefit to us under our swap contracts. In this case, we would still be obligated to pay the variable interest payments underlying the Credit Facility. Additionally, failure of our swap counterparties would not eliminate our obligation to continue to make payments under our existing swap contracts if we continue to be in a net pay position.
The carrying values of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments and the carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value. Our determination of the estimated fair value of long-term debt reflects a discounted cash flow model using our estimates, primarily those related to assumptions for borrowing rates (Level 3 inputs as defined in the accounting guidance).

On
September 20, 2013
, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and First Amendment to Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement (the Amendment) among us, as US Borrower, SCP Distributors Canada Inc., as Canadian Borrower, SCP Pool B.V., as Dutch Borrower, our subsidiary guarantors, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders. The Amendment amends certain terms of our existing unsecured syndicated senior credit facility (the Credit Facility) including extending the maturity date to
September 20, 2018
, increasing the borrowing capacity to
$465.0 million
from
$430.0 million
, and providing additional capacity under certain negative covenants, including indebtedness, liens, investments, sale of assets and dividends.
The amendment replaces JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as syndication agent with each of Bank of America N.A. and Union Bank, N.A.. It also replaces JPMorgan Securities LLC as a joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner with each of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Union Bank, N.A. Regions Bank and Capital One, N.A., each remain as a documentation agent.
Our obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by substantially all of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The Credit Facility contains terms and provisions (including representations, covenants and conditions) and events of default customary for transactions of this type. If we default under the Credit Facility, the lenders may terminate their obligations under the Credit Facility and may require us to repay all amounts.
Revolving borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at our option, at either of the following and in each case plus an applicable margin:
|
a.
|
a base rate, which is the highest of (i) the Wells Fargo Bank, National Association prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.500% and (iii) the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) Market Index Rate plus 1.000%; or
|
|
b.
|
the LIBOR.
|
Borrowings by the Canadian Borrower bear interest, at the Canadian Borrower’s option, at either of the following and in each case plus an applicable margin:
|
a.
|
a base rate, which is the greatest of (i) the Canadian Reference Bank prime rate and (ii) the annual rate of interest equal to the sum of the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate (CDOR) plus 1.000%; or
|
|
b.
|
the CDOR.
|
Borrowings by the Dutch Borrower bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin.
The interest rate margins on the borrowings and letters of credit are based on our leverage ratio and will range from 1.150% to 1.625% on CDOR, LIBOR and swingline loans, and from 0.150% to 0.625% on Base Rate and Canadian Base Rate loans. Borrowings under the swingline loans are based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus any applicable margin. We are also required to pay an annual facility fee ranging from
0.10%
to
0.25%
, depending on our leverage ratio.
This amendment did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or compliance with debt covenants as of and for the period ended
September 30, 2013
.
On
October 11, 2013
, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a
two
year accounts receivable securitization facility with a peak seasonal funding capacity of up to
$120.0 million
between March 1 and August 31 and up to
$80.0 million
between September 1 and February 28. Additional seasonal funding capacity of up to
$40.0 million
may be available, subject to agreement by the Purchasers, between April 1 and June 30.
SCP Distributors LLC, Horizon Distributors, Inc., Superior Pool Products LLC and Poolfx Supply LLC (collectively, the Originators) entered into a Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement dated as of
October 11, 2013
with Superior Commerce LLC (the Securitization Subsidiary) under which the Originators agreed to sell and, as applicable, contribute, all of their right, title and interest in and to their trade receivables and certain related rights to the Securitization Subsidiary without representation, warranty or recourse as to the collectability of the receivables or the creditworthiness of the obligors. The Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement contains terms and conditions (including representations, covenants and conditions precedent) customary for transactions of this type.
8
The Securitization Subsidiary, as Seller, also entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of
October 11, 2013
with SCP Distributors LLC, as the Servicer, the purchasers from time to time (the Purchasers), The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., New York Branch, as the Victory Group Co-Agent and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the Wells Group Co-Agent and as Administrative Agent, under which the Securitization Subsidiary may sell or otherwise transfer to the Purchasers variable undivided percentage interests in the receivables and related rights acquired from the Originators. The Receivables Purchase Agreement contains terms and conditions (including representations, covenants and conditions precedent) customary for transactions of this type. Additionally, an amortization event will occur if we fail to maintain a maximum average total leverage ratio (average total funded debt/EBITDA) of 3.25 to 1 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (EBITDAR/cash interest expense plus rental expense) of 2.25 to 1.
We guarantee all of the obligations of the Originators and the Servicer under both the Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement and the Receivables Purchase Agreement in accordance with a Performance Undertaking. The Performance Undertaking does not, however, guarantee collectability of the receivables or any obligations of the Securitization Subsidiary to the Purchasers.
This agreement did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2013. We are currently assessing the impact of this agreement on our financial statement disclosures, but do not expect it to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
For a discussion of our base business calculations, see the RESULTS OF OPERATIONS section below.
In our discussion of results of operations below, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS for all periods exclude the Goodwill impairment line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income. We have provided these adjusted amounts because we believe they help investors assess our year-over-year operating performance.

OVERVIEW
Financial Results
As the 2013 season came to a close, we realized solid sales and gross profit growth, leading to record third quarter results. We noted strong demand for discretionary products in both our seasonal and year-round markets, as weather returned to more normal conditions in the third quarter. Although we saw some improving margin trends in the quarter compared to earlier quarters, customer, product and geographic mix changes continued to adversely impact gross margins.
9
Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased
10%
compared to the third quarter of 2012, with base business sales up
9%
for the period. As weather normalized in the third quarter, sales growth of 7% in our seasonal markets more closely aligned with sales growth of 11% in our largest, year-round markets. Irrigation product sales were up 12%, reflecting benefits from the recovery in the housing market. Net sales for the third quarter of 2013 also benefited from one additional selling day versus the third quarter of last year.
Gross profit for the
third
quarter of
2013
increased 7% versus the same period in 2012. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales (gross margin) declined
60
basis points to
28.1%
in the
third
quarter of
2013
. The lower gross margin in the quarter continues to reflect a shift in consumer spending to lower margin, discretionary products such as pumps, heaters, lighting products, irrigation systems and landscape equipment, all of which experienced double-digit sales growth rates. This growth outpaced our sales of higher margin, non-discretionary product lines generally associated with basic pool maintenance and minor repair activity. In addition, the higher sales growth rates in our lower margin year-round markets continued to negatively impact gross margins.
Selling and administrative expenses (operating expenses) increased
5%
in the
third
quarter of
2013
compared to the same period in
2012
, with base business operating expenses also up
5%
for the period. The net sales growth in the third quarter of 2013, as well as the additional selling day, are the main contributors to the increase.
In the third quarter of 2012, we performed an interim goodwill impairment analysis for our United Kingdom reporting unit and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge equal to the total goodwill carrying amount of $6.9 million, which had a $0.14 negative impact on diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS for all periods exclude goodwill impairment and are provided in this filing because we believe these amounts are useful to investors in assessing year-over-year operating performance.
Operating income for the quarter increased
30%
compared to the same period in
2012
, and 11% compared to adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2012. Operating income as a percentage of net sales (operating margin) was
9.2%
for the
third
quarter of
2013
compared to
7.8%
for the same period in
2012
. Adjusted operating margin for the same period in 2012 was 9.1%.
Net income increased
51%
to
$32.3 million
in the
third
quarter of
2013
compared to the same period last year. Compared to adjusted net income of $28.3 million for the same period in 2012, net income for the quarter increased 14%. Earnings per share was up
$0.23
to
$0.68
per diluted share for the
three months
ended
September 30, 2013
. Compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.59 for the same period in 2012, diluted earnings per share was up $0.09.
Financial Position and Liquidity
Total net receivables at
September 30, 2013
increased
4%
versus
September 30, 2012
. Our allowance for doubtful accounts balance was
$4.5 million
at
September 30, 2013
, a decrease of
$1.0 million
and
$0.3 million
compared to December 31, 2012 and
September 30, 2012
, respectively. This decrease primarily reflects write-offs of certain fully reserved balances as well as sustained improvements in our aging categories. Days sales outstanding (DSO) improved between periods to 28.3 days at
September 30, 2013
compared to 29.0 days at
September 30, 2012
.
Net inventory levels were up
5%
from
September 30, 2012
to
$365.6 million
at
September 30, 2013
. The inventory reserve was
$8.7 million
at
September 30, 2013
compared to
$9.6 million
at
September 30, 2012
. Our inventory turns, as calculated on a trailing twelve month basis, increased to 3.4 times at
September 30, 2013
compared to 3.3 times at
September 30, 2012
.
Total debt outstanding was
$260.4 million
at
September 30, 2013
, up $46.1 million or 22% compared to
September 30, 2012
.
Current Trends and Outlook
For a detailed discussion of trends, see the Current Trends and Outlook section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in Item 7 of our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Based on our results through the third quarter as well as our fourth quarter expectations, we tightened our 2013 earnings guidance to a range of $2.03 to $2.08 per diluted share from our most recent guidance of $2.03 to $2.13 per diluted share.
We expect sales growth to be in the mid to upper single digits during the fourth quarter. We believe our fourth quarter gross margin will continue to track lower than 2012 due to adverse customer, product and geographic mix. Sales growth attributable to lower margin, discretionary products and in our year-round markets should continue to increase at greater rates than sales growth for higher margin, non-discretionary products and in our seasonal markets. For the full year, we anticipate sales growth of 5% to 6% and gross profit growth of 3% to 4%.
10
Our year to date base business expense growth was under 2%. We expect similar expense growth rates for both the fourth quarter and the full year.
For 2013, we project our effective income tax rate will be approximately 38.5%. Our effective tax rate is dependent upon the results of operations and may change if actual results are different from our current expectations, specifically any significant changes in our geographic mix.
We expect cash provided by operations will be in line with net income for fiscal 2013 and we anticipate that share repurchase activity will continue during the fourth quarter.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As of
September 30, 2013
, we conducted operations through
323
sales centers in North America, South America and Europe.

Net sales for the
third
quarter of 2013 increased
10%
from the third quarter of 2012, with a 9% increase in base business net sales. The base business sales increase reflects a 9% increase from swimming pool product sales and a 12% increase from irrigation product sales. In local currencies, net sales in Europe increased approximately 10% in the third quarter of
2013
, including a 9% increase in France.
The overall base business sales increase reflects the impact of the following (listed in order of estimated magnitude):
|
•
|
continued improvement in consumer discretionary expenditures, including some market recovery in remodeling and replacement activity, as evidenced by sales growth rates for product offerings such as building materials (see discussion below), heaters, pumps, and lighting;
|
|
•
|
market share gains attributed to continued improvements in customer service levels and increased construction and renovation activity consistent with the improvements in the housing market, as evidenced by sales growth rates for irrigation systems and landscape equipment product offerings;
|
|
•
|
better weather comparisons in the third quarter relative to the first half of 2013, resulting in an uptick in sales in our seasonal markets, supported by continued growth in our largest, year-round markets (net sales growth of 7% in our seasonal markets more closely aligned with sales growth of 11% in our largest, year-round markets);
|
|
•
|
one additional selling day (approximately 1% to 2%); and
|
|
•
|
inflationary product cost increases (estimated at approximately 1% to 2%).
|
Sales of building materials and tile grew by 27% compared to the third quarter of 2012, although collectively these products only accounted for approximately 10% of our total sales. Chemical sales increased by close to 2% while chemical pricing remained relatively flat.

Gross margin for the
third
quarter of
2013
declined approximately 60 basis points compared to the
third
quarter of
2012
primarily due to unfavorable product mix, customer mix and geographic mix.
The following items collectively impacted gross margin in the third quarter of 2013:
|
•
|
changes in our product mix, as double-digit sales growth for higher value, lower margin products such as heaters, variable speed pumps, LED lighting, irrigation systems and landscape equipment positively contributed to sales and gross profit dollars but negatively impacted our margins;
|
|
•
|
growth in sales to larger, lower margin customers, primarily those focused on remodeling and construction activities;
|
|
•
|
higher sales growth rates in our lower margin, year-round markets compared to our seasonal markets; and
|
|
•
|
increased presence of Internet retailers who set low industry reference prices for certain products.

Operating expenses, as well as base business operating expenses, increased 5% compared to the third quarter of 2012. This increase primarily represents higher variable expenses required to support sales growth and the impact of one additional selling day.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net declined compared to the third quarter of 2012 due to a decline in interest rates on borrowings and benefits related to
our accounting for uncertain tax positions. The weighted average effective interest rate decreased to 2.4% for the third quarter of 2013 from 2.6% for the third quarter of 2012 on average outstanding debt of $262.3 million and $256.1 million for the respective periods. In addition, we reverse any accrued interest related to the release of our federal income tax reserves when we file our federal income tax return and the statutes of limitations expire for another period, which occurred in the third quarter.
Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate was
37.6%
for the three months ended
September 30, 2013
compared to
45.7%
for the three months ended
September 30, 2012
. Excluding the impact of last year's $6.9 million goodwill impairment charge, which resulted in a significant increase in our foreign net operating loss valuation allowance, our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was 38.8%. The remaining decline versus the third quarter of last year reflects the impact of our accounting for uncertain tax positions as discussed above.
Net Income and Earnings Per Share
Net income for the third quarter of 2013 increased
51%
to
$32.3 million
compared to the
third
quarter of
2012
. Compared to adjusted net income for the third quarter of last year of $28.3 million, net income for the quarter increased 14%.
Earnings per diluted share increased $0.23 to
$0.68
per diluted share for the third quarter of 2013. Compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.59 for the same period in 2012, diluted earnings per share was up $0.09.

Net sales for the first nine months of 2013 increased
6%
compared to the same period of last year. Throughout the first half of 2013, sales growth suffered from comparatively difficult weather versus the first half of 2012. Sales through May of 2012 benefited from unusually favorable weather, especially across the Eastern half of North America. Record warm temperatures in the Northeast and Midwest spurred an earlier than normal start to remodeling projects and new pool construction in the 2012 season. In 2013, later than normal pool openings in our seasonal markets further added to these challenging comparisons. Weather normalized in the third quarter resulting in net sales growth in our seasonal markets that was more in line with net sales growth in our year-round markets.
Base business sales growth of
5%
for the first nine months of 2013 is comprised of a 5% sales increase in swimming pool products and a 12% sales increase in irrigation products. The overall base business sales increase also reflects the impact of the following (listed in order of estimated magnitude):
|
•
|
market share gains attributed to continued improvements in customer service levels, sales growth rates for certain product offerings such as building materials (see discussion below), heaters, pumps and lighting and higher base business sales growth for irrigation systems and landscape equipment due in part to the gradual recovery of the housing market in some of our key states;
|
|
•
|
continued improvement in consumer discretionary expenditures, including some market recovery in remodeling activity; and
|
|
•
|
inflationary product cost increases (estimated at approximately 1% to 2%).
|
Sales of building materials and tile grew by 19% compared to the first nine months of 2012, although collectively these products only accounted for approximately 10% of our total sales. Chemical sales declined by 2%, reflecting lower volume due to delayed pool openings compared to 2012, while chemical pricing remained relatively flat.

Gross margin declined approximately
50
basis points in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the same period last year. This decrease is primarily due to unfavorable product, customer and geographic mix as well as competitive pricing pressures. Double‑digit sales growth of higher value, lower margin discretionary products such as variable speed pumps, heaters, LED lighting, irrigation systems and landscape equipment positively contributed to sales and gross profit dollars but negatively impacted our margins. This growth outpaced our sales of higher margin, non-discretionary product lines generally associated with basic pool maintenance and minor repair activity. Additionally, as a result of the slower start to the 2013 season, geographic regions with generally higher margins contributed a proportionally smaller share of our total sales growth.

Operating expenses, as well as base business operating expenses, for the first nine months of 2013 increased slightly compared to the first nine months of 2012. Increases in overall compensation-related costs, driven by inflationary salary increases and headcount increases to support new sales centers, were partially offset by a reduction in employee incentive costs.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net for the first nine months of 2013 was consistent with the first
nine months
of 2012. Average outstanding debt was $263.8 million for the first nine months of 2013 versus $270.9 million in the same period of 2012. The weighted average effective interest rate was 2.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012.
Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate was
38.8%
for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2013
compared to
40.1%
for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2012
. Excluding the impact of last year's $6.9 million goodwill impairment charge, our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended
September 30, 2012
was 38.3%. Our provision for income taxes for the first three months of 2013 included a benefit of $0.2 million related to the temporary lapse in 2012 of the controlled foreign corporation income exclusion. Comparatively, our provision for income taxes for the first three months of 2012 included a benefit of approximately $0.7 million related to the expiration of statutes of limitations for income tax returns filed in the first quarter of 2009.
Net Income and Earnings Per Share
Net income for the nine months ended
September 30, 2013
increased
14%
to
$102.3 million
compared to the
nine months
ended
September 30, 2012
, while earnings per diluted share increased
$0.27
from the same period of last year to
$2.14
per diluted share. This represents a 6% increase over adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.01 on adjusted net income of $96.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2012
.
17
Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations
Our business is highly seasonal. In general, sales and operating income are highest during the second and third quarters, which represent the peak months of both swimming pool use and installation and landscape maintenance and installation. Sales are substantially lower during the first and fourth quarters, when we may incur net losses. In 2012, we generated approximately 66% of our net sales and over 100% of our operating income in the second and third quarters of the year.
We typically experience a build-up of product inventories and accounts payable during the winter months in anticipation of the peak selling season. Excluding borrowings to finance acquisitions and share repurchases, our peak borrowing usually occurs during the second quarter, primarily because extended payment terms offered by our suppliers typically are payable in April, May and June, while our peak accounts receivable collections typically occur in June, July and August.
The following table presents certain unaudited quarterly data for the first, second and third quarters of 2013, the four quarters of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2011. We have included income statement and balance sheet data for the most recent eight quarters to allow for a meaningful comparison of the seasonal fluctuations in these amounts. In our opinion, this information reflects all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of this data. Due to the seasonal nature of our industry, the results of any one or more quarters are not necessarily a good indication of results for an entire fiscal year or of continuing trends.

We expect that our quarterly results of operations will continue to fluctuate depending on the timing and amount of revenue contributed by new and acquired sales centers. Based on our peak summer selling season, we generally open new sales centers and close or consolidate sales centers, when warranted, either in the first quarter before the peak selling season begins or in the fourth quarter after the peak selling season ends.

More normalized weather in the first quarter of 2013 sharply contrasted with the mild winter experienced in the same period last year. In the first quarter of 2012, above average temperatures surfaced throughout the Eastern half of North America, with record warm temperatures in the Northeast and the Midwest. More normal temperatures in 2013 resulted in delayed pool openings in comparison to last year, which directly affected first quarter sales in most seasonal markets as evidenced by the sales growth variations between our year-round and seasonal markets. Our largest year-round swimming pool markets delivered growth of approximately 10% in the first quarter of 2013, whereas our more seasonal markets experienced close to 10% declines compared to the first quarter of 2012.
In the first quarter 2012, temperatures were also much higher than normal across the Southeast and Southwest, resulting in incremental sales of certain maintenance products as many swimming pool owners opened their pools earlier than normal and swimming pool use increased in year-round markets. Weather did not have a significant impact on our first quarter 2013 sales along the West Coast, where temperatures were close to historical averages and similar to the same period last year.
Weather turned unfavorable in the second quarter of 2013 with unusually cool and wet conditions in our seasonal markets. We observed above normal precipitation across nearly the entire United States with the exception of California, Texas, the Southwest and the Rockies. Below normal temperatures in the Central and Southeast United States and in Europe differed significantly from the above normal temperatures experienced in the second quarter of 2012. These conditions resulted in even further delayed pool openings in comparison to last year, which directly affected our second quarter sales in most seasonal markets.
Weather trends in our seasonal markets largely normalized in the third quarter of 2013, although weather conditions were still mixed throughout North America. The Northeast and Western portions of the United States experienced above average temperatures during the quarter, while temperatures in the Southeast were much cooler than usual. Florida and the West Coast also experienced considerable rainfall. As weather conditions normalized in the third quarter, sales growth of 7% in our seasonal markets more closely aligned with sales growth of 11% in our largest, year-round markets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity is defined as the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet short-term and long-term cash needs. We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating activities, taking into consideration the seasonal nature of our business. Significant factors which could affect our liquidity include the following:

•
|
cash flows generated from operating activities;
|
|
•
|
the adequacy of available bank lines of credit;
|
|
•
|
acquisitions;
|
|
•
|
scheduled debt payments;
|
|
•
|
dividend payments;
|
|
•
|
capital expenditures;
|
|
•
|
the timing and extent of share repurchases; and
|
|
•
|
the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms.
|
Our primary capital needs are seasonal working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, dividend payments and share repurchases. Our primary sources of working capital are cash from operations supplemented by borrowings, which have historically been sufficient to support our growth and finance acquisitions. The same principle applies to funds used for capital expenditures and share repurchases.
We prioritize our use of cash based on investing in our business, maintaining a prudent debt structure and returning money to our shareholders. Our specific priorities for the use of cash are as follows:
|
•
|
maintenance and new sales center capital expenditures;
|
|
•
|
strategic acquisitions executed opportunistically;
|
|
•
|
payment of cash dividends as and when declared by our Board of Directors (Board);
|
|
•
|
repurchase of common stock at Board-defined parameters; and
|
|
•
|
repayment of debt.
|
Capital expenditures, which historically have averaged 0.5% to 1.0% of net sales, were below and at the bottom of this range between 2008 and 2010 due to lower capacity expansion. In 2011, capital expenditures increased to 1.1% of net sales because we began purchasing rather than leasing new vehicles and forklifts. In
2012
, capital expenditures were 0.8% of net sales. In 2013 and going forward, we project annual capital expenditures will be relatively consistent with our historical average.
Sources and Uses of Cash

The
$70.7 million
decline in cash from operating activities for the first
nine months
of
2013
is mostly attributable to timing differences in our estimated federal income tax payments and in purchases of and payments for product inventories. In 2012, we were allowed to defer payment of our third quarter estimated tax payment to the fourth quarter due to Hurricane Isaac, whereas we made our 2013 payment in the third quarter. We expect these timing differences to largely correct in the fourth quarter, with cash flows from operations approximating net income for the full year.
Cash used in investing activities declined between periods due to lower acquisition payments. Cash used in financing activities was lower during the first
nine months
of
2013
due primarily to changes in our net borrowings. We had
$29.5 million
of net proceeds from our debt arrangements for the first
nine months
of
2013
, compared to net payments of
$33.0 million
for the first
nine months
of
2012
. In addition, common stock issuance proceeds and excess tax benefits from stock option exercises added $7.7 million to cash from financing activities compared to the prior year.

Future Sources and Uses of Cash
On September 20, 2013, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and First Amendment to Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement (the Amendment) among us, as US Borrower, SCP Distributors Canada Inc., as Canadian Borrower, SCP Pool B.V., as Dutch Borrower, our subsidiary guarantors, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders. The Amendment amends certain terms of our existing unsecured syndicated senior credit facility (the Credit Facility) including extending the maturity date to September 20, 2018, increasing the borrowing capacity to $465.0 million from $430.0 million and providing additional capacity under certain negative covenants, including indebtedness, liens, investments, sale of assets and dividends. The Amendment replaces JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as syndication agent with each of Bank of America N.A. and Union Bank, N.A. It also replaces JPMorgan Securities LLC as a joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner with each of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Union Bank, N.A. Regions Bank and Capital One, N.A., each remain as a documentation agent. The Credit Facility includes sublimits for the issuance of swingline loans and standby letters of credit. Pursuant to an accordion feature, the aggregate maximum principal amount of the commitments under the Credit Facility may be increased at our request and with agreement by the lenders by up to $75.0 million, to a total of $540.0 million.
At
September 30, 2013
, there was
$260.4 million
outstanding and
$201.3 million
available for borrowing under the Credit Facility. We currently have five interest rate swap contracts in place that reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on the Credit Facility. These swap contracts convert the Credit Facility’s variable interest rate to fixed rates of 1.185% on notional amounts totaling $50.0 million, 1.100% on a notional amount of $50.0 million, 1.050% on a notional amount of $25.0 million and 0.990% on a notional amount of $25.0 million. Interest expense related to the notional amounts under these swaps is based on the fixed rates plus the applicable margin on the Credit Facility. All five swap contracts will terminate on October 19, 2016. The weighted average effective interest rate for the Credit Facility as of
September 30, 2013
was approximately 1.9%, excluding commitment fees.
Financial covenants on the Credit Facility include maintenance of a maximum average total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which are our most restrictive financial covenants. As of
September 30, 2013
, the calculations of these two covenants are detailed below:
|
•
|
Maximum Average Total Leverage Ratio
. On the last day of each fiscal quarter, our average total leverage ratio must be less than 3.25 to 1.00. Average Total Leverage Ratio is the ratio of the trailing twelve months (TTM) Average Total Funded Indebtedness plus the TTM Average Accounts Securitization Proceeds divided by the TTM EBITDA (as those terms are defined in the Credit Facility). As of
September 30, 2013
, our average total leverage ratio equaled
1.39
(compared to
1.41
as of June 30, 2013) and the TTM average total debt amount used in this calculation was
$255.8 million
.
|
|
•
|
Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
. On the last day of each fiscal quarter, our fixed charge ratio must be greater than or equal to 2.25 to 1.00. Fixed Charge Ratio is the ratio of the TTM EBITDAR divided by TTM Interest Expense paid or payable in cash plus TTM Rental Expense (as those terms are defined in the Credit Facility). As of
September 30, 2013
, our fixed charge ratio equaled
4.21
(compared to
4.06
as of June 30, 2013) and TTM Rental Expense was
$49.2 million
.
|
The Credit Facility also limits the declaration and payment of dividends on our common stock to no more than 50% of the preceding year’s Net Income (as defined in the Credit Facility), provided no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from the payment of dividends. Additionally, we may declare and pay quarterly dividends notwithstanding that the aggregate amount of dividends paid would be in excess of the 50% limit described above so long as (i) the amount per share of such dividends does not exceed the amount per share paid during the most recent fiscal year in which we were in compliance with the 50% limit and (ii) our Average Total Leverage Ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00 both immediately before and after giving pro forma effect to such dividends. Further, dividends must be declared and paid in a manner consistent with our past practice.
Under the Credit Facility, we may repurchase shares of our common stock provided no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from the repurchase of shares, and our maximum average total leverage ratio (determined on a pro forma basis) is less than 2.50 to 1.00. Other covenants include restrictions on our ability to grant liens, incur indebtedness, make investments, merge or consolidate, and sell or transfer assets. Failure to comply with any of our financial covenants or any other terms of the Credit Facility could result in penalty payments, higher interest rates on our borrowings or the acceleration of the maturities of our outstanding debt.
21
As of
September 30, 2013
, we were in compliance with all covenants and financial ratio requirements. We believe we will remain in compliance with all covenants and financial ratio requirements throughout the rest of the year. For additional information regarding our debt arrangements, see Note 5 of “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Item 8 of our
2012
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
On October 11, 2013, we and certain of our subsidiaries closed a new, two-year accounts receivable securitization facility with a peak seasonal funding capacity of up to $120.0 million between March 1 and August 31 and up to $80.0 million between September 1 and February 28. An additional seasonal facility limit of up to $40.0 million may be available between April 1 and June 30.
We believe we have adequate availability of capital to fund present operations and the current capacity to finance any working capital needs that may arise. We continually evaluate potential acquisitions and hold discussions with acquisition candidates. If suitable acquisition opportunities arise that would require financing, we believe that we have the ability to finance any such transactions.
As of
October 25, 2013
,
$31.5 million
of the current Board authorized amount under our share repurchase program remained available. We expect to repurchase additional shares on the open market from time to time depending on market conditions. We plan to fund these repurchases with cash provided by operations and borrowings under the Credit Facility.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
We prepare our Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Management identifies critical accounting estimates as:
|
•
|
those that require the use of assumptions about matters that are inherently and highly uncertain at the time the estimates are made; and
|
|
•
|
those for which changes in the estimate or assumptions, or the use of different estimates and assumptions, could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
|
Management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of our critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. For a description of our critical accounting estimates that require us to make the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, please see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2012
. We have not changed these policies from those previously disclosed.
Interest Rate Risk
There have been no material changes from what we reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2012
that affect fiscal
2013
.
Currency Risk
There have been no material changes from what we reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2012
that affect fiscal 2013.
The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act). The rules refer to the controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of
September 30, 2013
, management, including the CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that as of
September 30, 2013
, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Based on the most recent evaluation, we have concluded that no change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
22
As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, a number of purported anti-trust class action suits have been filed against us in various United States District Courts. The cases were transferred and consolidated before the Judicial Panel for Multidistrict Litigation, MDL Docket No. 2328, and are presently pending in the Eastern District of Louisiana. The plaintiffs include indirect purchaser plaintiffs, purporting to represent indirect purchasers of swimming pool products in Arizona, California, Florida and Missouri, and direct purchaser plaintiffs, who are current or former customers. On April 11, 2013, the Court granted in part and denied in part the defendants' motions to dismiss the direct purchasers' antitrust claim.
On May 24, 2013, the Court granted in part and denied in part the defendants' motions to dismiss the indirect purchasers' antitrust claims.
Both direct and indirect purchaser plaintiffs have amended their complaints and defendants’ motions to dismiss certain of the direct purchasers’ claims are presently pending before the Court.
We a
re subject to regulation under federal, state and local environmental, transportation, and health and safety requirements, which govern such things as packaging, labeling, handling, transportation, storage and sale of chemicals. As previously disclosed in our Form 10-Q filed on July 27, 2012,
the Office of the District Attorney for the County of Riverside, California, made a monetary demand upon us for civil penalties, alleging noncompliance in the past with local and state hazardous waste handling, storage and transportation laws, fire and building code regulations and California Business & Professions Code Section 17200, primarily relating to liquid chlorine and muriatic acid. On August 30, 2013, the Office of the District Attorney for the County of Riverside, California, filed a complaint against us for civil penalties, alleging the same matters.
Although we are unable to predict the outcome of this matter, based on information currently available to us, we do not expect this matter to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2012
.
