AMERICAN WOODMARK CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three-month period ended July 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2013.  The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012 filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC).

NOTE B--NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present comprehensive income and its components as part of the statement of shareholders’ equity. The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income.  The Company adopted this guidance effective May 1, 2012 and included a Statement of Comprehensive Income in the interim financial statements.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


NOTE C--EARNINGS (NET LOSS) PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share:

Potentially dilutive securities of 1.7 million and 2.0 million shares for the three-month periods ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of net earnings (loss) per share, as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE D--STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has various stock compensation plans.  During the quarter ended July 31, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved grants of non-statutory stock options and service-based and performance-based restricted stock units to key employees.  The Company granted non-statutory stock options to key employees for 125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $17.62 per share. The options vest evenly over a three-year period and have a ten-year contractual term. The Company granted 129,075 employee performance-based restricted stock units and 43,025 employee service-based restricted stock units.  The performance-based restricted stock units entitle the recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per unit granted if applicable performance conditions are met and the recipient remains continuously employed with the Company until the units vest.  The service-based units entitle the recipients to receive one share of the Company’s common stock per unit granted if they remain continuously employed with the Company until the units vest.  The Company’s restricted stock units granted to employees cliff-vest three years from the grant date.

For the three-month periods ended July 31, 2012 and 2011, stock-based compensation expense was allocated as follows:

Total LIFO inventories
  $ 24,478     $ 22,340  

Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs.  Since these items are estimated, interim results are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

NOTE G--PRODUCT WARRANTY

The Company estimates outstanding warranty costs based on the historical relationship between warranty claims and revenues.  The warranty accrual is reviewed monthly to verify that it properly reflects the remaining obligation based on the anticipated expenditures over the balance of the obligation period.  Adjustments are made when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates.  Warranty claims are generally made within three months of the original shipment date.

The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s warranty liability:

Based on the laws and assumptions as of April 30, 2012, the Company expects to contribute $7.3 million to its pension plans in fiscal 2013, which represents required funding.  As of July 31, 2012, $1.5 million of contributions have been made.  The Company made contributions of $2.9 million to its pension plans in fiscal 2012.

New legislation was passed in July 2012 that may have the effect of spreading the expected funding requirements for the Company’s pension plans over a longer period of time.  The Company has not yet estimated the effect of the new law on its projected contributions to the pension plans as the rules to apply the new law are not yet available.

NOTE J—RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

In the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the continuing impact of the housing economy’s lengthy downturn caused the Company to announce a restructuring plan (“2012 Restructuring Plan”) that committed to the closing of two of the Company’s manufacturing plants located in Hardy County, West Virginia and Hazard, Kentucky, offering its previously idled plant in Tahlequah, Oklahoma for sale, and realigning its retirement program, including freezing the Company’s defined benefit pension plans.  Operations ceased at the Hazard plant in April 2012 and at the Hardy County plant in May 2012.   The 2012 Restructuring Plan was adopted to reduce costs, increase the Company’s capacity utilization rates and decrease overhead costs.

During fiscal 2012, the Company recognized pre-tax restructuring charges of $15.9 million related to the 2012 Restructuring Plan.  During the quarter ended July 31, 2012, the Company recognized pre-tax restructuring charges of $0.8 million related to the 2012 Restructuring Plan.  In addition, the Company recognized recurring operating costs for the closed facilities of $0.4 million for the three months ended July 31, 2012 that are expected to continue until the plants are sold.
 
 
10

 

A reserve for restructuring charges in the amount of $0.7 million is included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2012 which primarily relates to severance costs accrued but not yet paid.  Below is the summary of the restructuring reserve balance as of July 31, 2012:

    (2,380 )
Reserve balance as of July 31, 2012
  $ 686  

The Company has a total of three manufacturing plants classified as held for sale; one plant that was idled in 2009, plus the two manufacturing plants closed in the 2012 Restructuring Plan.  The Company believes that the $7.3 million net book value of the properties classified as held for sale is fully recoverable.  These assets are included in Other Assets on the Company’s balance sheet at July 31, 2012.

NOTE K—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company utilizes the hierarchy of fair value measurements to classify certain of its assets and liabilities based upon the following definitions:
 
Level 1- Investments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s cash equivalents are invested in money market funds, mutual funds and United States Treasury instruments. The Company’s mutual fund investment assets represent contributions made and invested on behalf of the Company’s named executive officers in a supplementary employee retirement plan.
 
Level 2- Investments with observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 2 assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3- Investments with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 3 assets or liabilities.
 
The following table summarizes the fair values of assets that are recorded in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of July 31, 2012 and April 30, 2012 at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The Company is involved in suits and claims in the normal course of business, including without limitation product liability and general liability claims and claims pending before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.  On at least a quarterly basis, the Company consults with its legal counsel to ascertain the reasonable likelihood that such claims may result in a loss.  As required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450, “Contingencies,” (ASC 450), the Company categorizes the various suits and claims into three categories according to their likelihood for resulting in potential loss: those that are probable, those that are reasonably possible, and those that are deemed to be remote.  The Company accounts for these loss contingencies in accordance with ASC 450.  Where losses are deemed to be probable and estimable, accruals are made. Where losses are deemed to be reasonably possible or remote, a range of loss estimates is determined and considered for disclosure.  Where no loss estimate range can be made, the Company and its counsel perform a worst-case estimate. In determining these loss range estimates, the Company considers known values of similar claims and consults with independent counsel.

The Company believes that the aggregate range of loss stemming from the various suits and asserted and unasserted claims which were deemed to be either probable or reasonably possible was not material as of July 31, 2012.


Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes, both of which are included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.  The Company’s critical accounting policies are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains statements concerning the Company’s expectations, plans, objectives, future financial performance, and other statements that are not historical facts.  These statements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  In most cases, the reader can identify these forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “expect,” “believe,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “plan,” “may” or other similar words.  Forward-looking statements contained in this report, including in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, are based on current expectations and our actual results may differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.  In addition, the Company participates in an industry that is subject to rapidly changing conditions and there are numerous factors that could cause the Company to experience a decline in sales and/or earnings or deterioration in financial condition.  These include but are not limited to:

·  
general economic or business conditions and instability in the financial and credit markets, including their potential impact on our (i) sales and operating costs and access to financing, and (ii) customers and suppliers and their ability to obtain financing or generate the cash necessary to conduct their respective businesses;
·  
the cyclical nature of the Company’s industry, which is particularly sensitive to changes in consumer confidence, the amount of consumers’ income available for discretionary purchases, and the availability and terms of consumer credit;
·  
economic weakness in a specific channel of distribution;
·  
the loss of sales from specific customers due to their loss of market share, bankruptcy or switching to a competitor;
·  
risks associated with domestic manufacturing operations, including fluctuations in capacity utilization and the prices and availability of key raw materials as well as fuel, transportation, warehousing and labor costs and environmental compliance and remediation costs;
·  
the need to respond to price or product initiatives launched by a competitor;
 
 
12

 
 
 
·  
the Company’s ability to successfully implement initiatives related to increasing market share, new products, maintaining and increasing its sales force and new product displays; and
·  
sales growth at a rate that outpaces the Company’s ability to install new capacity or a sales decline that requires reduction or realignment of the Company’s manufacturing capacity.

Additional information concerning the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements is contained in this report, including elsewhere in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and also in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012, filed with the SEC, including under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” Item 1A, "Risk Factors," and Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk."  While the Company believes that these risks are manageable and will not adversely impact the long-term performance of the Company, these risks could, under certain circumstances, have a material adverse impact on its operating results and financial condition.

Any forward-looking statement that the Company makes, speaks only as of the date of this report.  The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or cautionary factors, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Overview

American Woodmark Corporation manufactures and distributes kitchen cabinets and vanities for the remodeling and new home construction markets.  Its products are sold on a national basis directly to home centers, major builders and home manufacturers, and through a network of independent dealers and distributors.  At July 31, 2012, the Company operated 9 manufacturing facilities and 9 service centers across the country.

The three-month period ended July 31, 2012 was the Company’s first quarter of its fiscal year that ends on April 30, 2013 (fiscal 2013).  During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, housing market conditions remained far below levels experienced when the housing market peaked in 2006. Key measures such as single-family housing starts and the level of Gross Private Residential Fixed Investment reported by the U.S. Department of Commerce were less than half of their previous levels. However, several key indicators have begun or continued to trend positively during calendar 2012.  Each of the trends listed below favorably impacted the housing market during the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal 2013:

·  
Private sector employment increased during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as it has in every month since March 2010, according to data provided by the U.S. Department of Labor;
·  
Consumer confidence  improved by 15% compared with one year ago, as reported by the University of Michigan;
·  
Existing home sales levels and the median price per existing home sold improved from one year ago by 8% and by 6%, respectively, according to data provided by the National Association of Realtors; and
·  
Single-family housing starts improved by 20% compared with one year ago, according to data provided by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

The Company sells its products to two separate sales channels within the housing market; remodeling and new construction. The Company believes there is no single indicator that directly correlates with cabinet remodeling market activity. For this reason, the Company considers several of the above indicators as well as several others, including mortgage interest rates and sales reported by the Kitchen Cabinet Manufacturers Association (KCMA), a trade organization which reports the aggregate sales that have been reported by its members, which include the largest cabinet manufacturers in the United States. Regarding new construction market activity for cabinets, the Company believes that fluctuations in single-family housing starts are the best indicator. During the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal 2013, single-family construction starts rose by 20% above prior year levels. During this same period, cabinet sales reported by KCMA’s members increased at a mid single-digit rate. Since the sales reported by KCMA’s members include both remodel and new construction sales, and because the increase in new construction starts likely drove a double-digit increase in new construction market cabinet sales, the Company believes that remodeling market cabinet sales declined at a single-digit rate during this period.

 
13

 
 
 
Faced with a declining remodeling market, the Company’s largest remodeling customers and competitors continued to utilize an elevated level of sales promotions in the Company’s product category to boost sales.  These promotions consisted of free products and cash discounts to consumers based upon the amount and/or type of cabinets they purchased.  Although some of the Company’s competitors have participated vigorously in these promotional activities, the Company has begun to ease the amount of its promotional offerings while continuing to remain competitive with its competitors.  The Company’s remodeling sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were roughly flat with prior year, in a market that appears to have declined by single-digits.

The Company continued to realize strong market share gains in its new construction channel, where sales increased by more than 40% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 when compared to the same period of fiscal 2012, significantly outpacing the 20% improvement in single-family housing starts.

The Company’s total net sales rose by 13% during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, indicative of market share gains in both its remodeling and new construction sales channels. The Company’s sales increase helped its gross margin rate improve to 14.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared with 14.0% in the prior year’s first quarter.  The improvement in the Company’s gross margin during the three-month period was driven by reductions in fixed overhead costs associated with the plant closures and by the beneficial impact of increased sales volume.  These beneficial factors were partially offset by operational inefficiencies connected with the transition of production related to the plant closures and by the unfavorable impact of higher material costs.

During the third quarter of its prior fiscal year, the Company announced several initiatives designed to reduce its manufacturing capacity and its cost base, including the permanent closure of two manufacturing plants, the decision to place a previously closed manufacturing facility for sale, and the realignment of its retirement program, including the freezing of its pension plans. The Company recorded restructuring charges of $15.9 million (pre-tax) and $10.0 million (after-tax) during fiscal 2012 and $0.8 million (pre-tax) and $0.5 million (after-tax) during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 in connection with these initiatives.  Because the bulk of these restructuring efforts were completed at July 31, 2012, the Company expects that its future out-of-pocket costs will be reduced as the fiscal year progresses. The Company has listed each of the three manufacturing facilities that ceased production for sale.  The three plants were classified as assets held for sale and included in “Other Assets” with an aggregate $7.3 million net book value in the Company’s July 31, 2012 balance sheet.

The Company regularly assesses its long-lived assets to determine if any impairment has occurred and regularly evaluates its deferred tax assets to determine whether a valuation allowance is necessary.  The Company has concluded that none of the long-lived assets pertaining to its 9 manufacturing plants or any of its other long-lived assets were impaired and that no valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets was necessary as of July 31, 2012.

Exclusive of restructuring charges, the Company earned a net income of $1.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared with a net loss of $2.7 million in the first quarter of its prior fiscal year.

Net Sales.  Net sales were $148.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, an increase of 13% compared with the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  Overall unit volume for the three-month period ended July 31, 2012 improved by 9%, while average revenue per unit increased 4%, driven by modest improvements in the Company’s sales mix and pricing.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 14.9%, compared with 14.0% for the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  The improvement in gross profit margin was due primarily to the beneficial impact of higher sales volume and the reduction in fixed overhead costs associated with the Company’s two plant closures in April and May of 2012.  This favorability was partially offset by an increase in material and freight costs.   Specific changes and additional information included:

·  
Overhead and labor costs improved by a combined 3.3% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared with the comparable prior year period, as increased sales volume caused increased absorption of fixed overhead costs.  The recent plant closures caused overhead costs to be reduced; however this favorable impact was  partially offset by labor inefficiencies that were driven by the transition of production related to the recent plant closures during a period of rising sales volume;
·  
Materials and freight costs increased as a percentage of net sales by 2.4% during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared with the comparable prior year period, driven primarily by inflationary pressures in finishing materials, lumber, cartons, imported components, and diesel fuel, as well as production inefficiencies resulting from the recent plant closures.

Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses were 9.8% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared with 12.2% of sales for the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  Sales and marketing costs decreased by 9% in relation to the 13% increase in net sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, due to cost reductions related to the Company’s retirement plan changes, as well as reduced spending on product displays and dealer sales promotions.

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses were 3.8% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, compared with 4.8% of sales for the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. General and administrative costs were reduced by 11% during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared with the prior year, driven by the aforementioned retirement plan changes, as well as reduced incentive-based compensation expenses.  As of July 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $0.1 million of accounts with aggregate receivables from customers with a higher perceived level of risk.

Effective Income Tax Rates. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 44.7%, compared with 30.5% in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  The higher effective tax rate in fiscal 2013 was the result of relatively consistent amounts of permanent tax differences  in relation to the net income generated in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 as compared with the net loss generated in the prior year’s first quarter.

Outlook.  The Company expects that housing prices will finally bottom during its fiscal year 2013 and begin to improve over prior year levels for the first time in several years. The Company expects that cabinet sales in the remodeling market will correlate with house pricing activity and be relatively flat during fiscal 2013. The Company expects that its remodeling sales will grow at a rate that slightly exceeds that of the remodeling market.

The Company expects that single-family housing starts and new construction cabinet market sales will grow in the low teens during its fiscal year 2013, and that the Company’s new construction sales growth will slightly exceed this level for the remainder of its fiscal year.

Because both the Company’s first quarter sales increase and its market outlook have exceeded its expectations, the Company now expects that it has the opportunity to operate profitably for the remainder of fiscal 2013, even though the entirety of the benefits derived from its restructuring initiatives may be delayed by several months.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $67.9 million at July 31, 2012, representing a $5.8 million decrease from its April 30, 2012 balance, and a $2.6 million decrease from July 31, 2011.  At July 31, 2012, total long-term debt (including current maturities) was $24.6 million, down $0.1 million from its balance at April 30, 2012 and down $0.8 million from July 31, 2011.  The Company’s ratio of long-term debt to total capital was 15.3% at July 31, 2012 compared with 15.5% at April 30, 2012.
 
 
15

 
 
 
The Company’s main source of liquidity is its existing cash and cash equivalents on hand and cash generated from its operating activities. The Company maintains a $35 million secured revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (Wells Fargo). Pursuant to the terms of the Wells Fargo credit facility, $7.1 million of the Company’s cash served as security for borrowings under this facility and was classified as restricted cash at both July 31, 2012 and April 30, 2012.

Cash used by operating activities in the first three months of fiscal 2013 was $3.8 million, compared with cash provided by operating activities of $4.2 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2012.  The decrease in cash generated by operating activities was driven primarily by plant closure and severance payments related to the recently completed restructuring activities, by resumption in funding the Company’s pension plans, and by incentive compensation payments pertaining to the prior year.  The aggregate incremental impact of these items exceeded $6 million.

The Company’s investing activities primarily consist of capital expenditures and investments in promotional displays.  Net cash used for capital expenditures and promotional displays was $1.9 million in the first three months of fiscal 2013, compared with $2.1 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2012. The decrease of $0.2 million was driven by the receipt of $1.8 million in proceeds received from the sale of equipment from the closed plants, partly offset by increases of $0.9 million in outflows for capital expenditures and $0.6 million for promotional displays. The Company expects its gross investments in capital expenditures and promotional displays for fiscal 2013 will increase to approximately $14 million for fiscal 2013, up from $9.9 million in fiscal 2012, driven by machinery and equipment enhancements to enable production volume to increase, and by increasing the number of sales display units deployed.

The Company generated negative free cash flow (defined as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used for investing activities) of $5.6 million in the first three months of fiscal 2013, compared with positive free cash flow of $2.1 million in the first three months of fiscal 2012.  The Company’s free cash flow declined by $7.7 million during the first three months of fiscal 2013, driven by the reduction in cash flow from operating activities.

During the first three months of fiscal 2013, net cash used for financing activities was $0.2 million, compared with $1.4 million of net cash used in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  The Company discontinued its dividend after making its payment in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year, which reduced the Company’s outflow during the current fiscal year.  The Company made no repurchases of its common stock during either period and had $93.3 million of remaining stock repurchases authorized by its Board of Directors as of July 31, 2012.

The Company can borrow up to $35 million under the Wells Fargo credit facility; however, the Company must maintain cash and specified investments held in accounts pledged to Wells Fargo having a collateral value of at least 50% of the Company’s aggregate indebtedness and other obligations to Wells Fargo.  At July 31, 2012, $10 million of loans and $3.7 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the Wells Fargo facility and $7.1 million of the Company’s cash was held as security.

On May 29, 2012, the Company and Wells Fargo amended the credit facility and its related security arrangements. These modifications reduced the amount of the Company’s cash and securities that is required to be held as security from 100% to 50% of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness and other obligations to Wells Fargo. As a result, the Company’s restricted cash was reduced to its present level of $7.1 million, and the Company agreed to pledge substantially all of its assets as security for the Company’s indebtedness and other obligations to Wells Fargo. Other amendments to the credit facility (a) reduced the allowable ratio of the Company’s total liabilities to its tangible net worth to a maximum of 1.4 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter (on a rolling four quarter basis), (b) added a requirement for the Company to maintain a cash flow to fixed charges ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 at the end of each fiscal quarter, and (c) added a requirement that the Company maintain an asset coverage ratio of not less than 1.47 to 1.0 at the end of each calendar month.

The Company was in compliance with all covenants specified in the amended credit facility as of July 31, 2012, as follows: (a) the Company’s ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth at July 31, 2012 was 1.0 to 1.0; (b) cash flow to fixed charges was 1.64 to 1.0; and (c) its asset coverage ratio as of July 31, 2012 was 5.06 to 1.0.
 
 
16

 
 
 
The credit facility does not limit the Company’s ability to use unrestricted cash to pay dividends or repurchase its common stock.

Cash flow from operations combined with accumulated cash and cash equivalents on hand are expected to be more than sufficient to support forecasted working capital requirements, service existing debt obligations and fund capital expenditures and promotional displays for fiscal 2013.

The timing of the Company’s contractual obligations as of April 30, 2012 is summarized in the table below.

(a)  
Interest commitments under interest bearing debt consist of interest under the Company’s primary loan agreement, term loans and capitalized lease agreements. Amounts outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility, $10 million at April 30, 2012, bear a variable interest rate determined by the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.25%. Interest under the Company’s term loans and capitalized lease agreements is fixed at rates between 2% and 6.5%.  Interest commitments under interest bearing debt for the Company’s revolving credit facility are at LIBOR plus the spread in effect as of April 30, 2012, throughout the remaining term of the facility.

(b)  
The estimated cost of the Company’s two defined benefit pension plans is determined annually based upon the discount rate and other assumptions at fiscal year end.  Future pension funding contributions beyond 2017 have not been determined at this time.  New legislation was passed in July 2012 that may have the effect of spreading the expected funding requirements for the Company’s pension plans over a longer period of time.  The Company has not yet estimated the effect of the new law on its projected contributions to the pension plans as the rules to apply the new law are not yet available.

Seasonal and Inflationary Factors

The Company’s business has historically been subject to seasonal influences, with higher sales typically realized in the second and fourth fiscal quarters.

The costs of the Company’s products are subject to inflationary pressures and commodity price fluctuations.  The Company has generally been able over time to recover the effects of inflation and commodity price fluctuations through sales price increases.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  There have been no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Since the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012, the Company had no material exposure to changes in interest rates for its debt agreements.

The Company does not currently use commodity or interest rate derivatives or similar financial instruments to manage its commodity price or interest rate risks.  See “Seasonal and Inflationary Factors” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations above for additional information regarding the effects inflation and commodity price fluctuations have on the costs of the Company’s products.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of July 31, 2012.  Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.  In addition, there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended July 31, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various suits and claims in the normal course of business all of which constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to the Company’s business.  The Company does not have any litigation that does not constitute ordinary, routine litigation incidental to its business.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risk factors that may affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition are described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012.  Additional risks are discussed elsewhere in this report, including in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the headings “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Outlook.”

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On August 24, 2007, the Company announced that the Company’s Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $100 million of the Company’s common stock.  This authorization has no expiration date.  In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company did not repurchase any shares under this authorization.  At July 31, 2012, $93.3 million remained authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock.
