LANDAUER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

December  31, 20132014

(Dollars in thousands)

 

(1)Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

As used herein, the “Company” or “Landauer” refers to Landauer, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

 

TheseThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities in which the Company has a  controlling financial interest.  All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.  Entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but is considered to have significant influence, are accounted for on the equity method.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 20132014 and other financial information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.  There have been no changes to the accounting policies for the three month period ended December 31, 2013.

The results of operations for the three month period ended December  31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.  The September 30, 20132014 balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.America (“U.S. GAAP”).

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.  There have been no changes to the accounting policies for the three month period ended December  31, 2014.

The results of operations for the three month period ended December  31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements

 

In connection with the opinionpreparation of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of such financial statements.  Certain reclassifications have been madethe fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, the Company identified errors in theits previously issued financial statements for comparative purposes.  These reclassifications have no effectthe interim period ended December 31, 2013.  In accordance with accounting guidance presented in ASC 250-10 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality, management assessed the materiality of these errors and concluded that they were material to the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The Company is restating its financial statements for the interim period ended December 31, 2013 to correct for these errors.  Following is a description of the corrections:

Income taxes – The Company did not properly allocate income between taxing jurisdictions for certain items.  This resulted in the misstatement of income tax expense (benefit), prepaid taxes, current and deferred tax assets and liabilities, other accrued expenses and accumulated other comprehensive income.

Revenue and accounts receivable – The Company identified the following errors related to revenue recognition and its accounting for receivables:

·

The Company did not properly defer revenue for the portion of the badge wear period remaining at the end of each month.  This resulted in the misstatement of revenue and the deferred revenue liability.

·

The Company did not recognize revenue for certain customers in accordance with contractually established terms and conditions.  This resulted in the misstatement of revenue, cost of sales, inventory and the deferred revenue liability.

Table of Contents

·

Revenue was recognized for certain product sales prior to the transfer of the risk of loss to customers.  This resulted in the misstatement of revenue, cost of sales, inventory and the deferred revenue liability.

·

Credit memos were recorded to customers’ accounts prior to recognition of the related revenue.  This resulted in the misstatement of revenue and receivables, net of allowances.

·

The Company did not properly record an allowance for credit memos to be issued to customers in the same periods as the related revenue.  This resulted in the misstatement of revenue and receivables, net of allowances.

·

The Company utilized a methodology at one of its foreign subsidiaries to record an allowance for doubtful accounts that did not properly estimate future bad debts based on the subsidiary’s historical experience.  As a result, the Company did not record an allowance for certain significantly aged receivables and bad debt expense was not recorded in the proper periods.  This resulted in the misstatement of selling, general and administrative expenses and receivables, net of allowances.

Dosimetry devices – The Company did not properly account for certain dosimetry devices, based on the results of operations or financial positionexpected useful life of the Company.devices as determined by the wear period of the related badges.  This resulted in a misstatement of cost of sales and dosimetry devices, net of accumulated depreciation.

 

Long-term investments - The Company recorded fixed income mutual fund investments held by one of its foreign subsidiaries as cash, instead of properly classifying them as available-for-sale securities.  As a result, both realized and unrealized gains were incorrectly recorded as interest income.  This resulted in the misstatement of interest expense, net, other income (expense), net, net income attributed to noncontrolling interest, comprehensive income, cash, other assets, accumulated other comprehensive income, and noncontrolling interest.

Sales taxes – The Company did not collect and remit sales taxes to the proper taxing jurisdictions.  This resulted in the misstatement of selling, general and administrative expenses and other accrued expenses.

Intangible assets – The Company’s intangible assets include purchased customer lists, licenses, patents, trademarks and tradenames. These assets are recorded at fair value and assigned estimated useful lives at the time of acquisition. The Company did not properly amortize certain customer lists and trademarks based on their assigned useful lives and, therefore, did not record amortization expense in the proper periods.  This resulted in a misstatement of selling, general and administrative expenses and intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization.

Equity in joint ventures – The Company identified the following errors related to accounting for its joint ventures:

·

During fiscal 2012 and 2013, the Company did not properly record its share of equity income from certain joint ventures in the proper periods.

·

The Company did not properly eliminate intra-entity profit on sales to one of its joint ventures accounted for on the equity method.  This resulted in the misstatement of equity in income of joint ventures and equity in joint ventures (investment account).

·

Revenue was recorded at one of the Company’s joint ventures on equipment sales prior to transfer of the risk of loss to the customer.  As a result, the Company did not record its share of equity income from the joint venture in the proper periods.

As reported in the Company's 2014 third fiscal quarter Form 10-Q (filed on August 11, 2014), certain errors were identified in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows that impacted prior periods.  The errors related to the following:   treatment of accrued additions for property, plant and equipment, classification of debt financing fees and classification of unrealized gains or losses on investments in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.   The prior period consolidated statements of cash flows were revised in the 2014 third fiscal quarter Form 10-Q to correct for these errors and the impacts of the corrections are reflected within the 'Previously Reported' columns above.

(2)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. This guidance requires reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to be presented either in the financial statements or in the notes to the financial statements. The standard would not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, the guidance would require an entity to provide enhanced disclosures to present separately by component reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.  The adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.  

In March 2013, the FASB issued an accounting update that clarifies the applicable guidance for the release of the cumulative translation adjustment when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or a group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity.  The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice.  This guidance was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.  The adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance to reduce the diversity in presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward exists. This requires an unrecognized tax benefit to be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, with certain exceptions listed in the guidance.  This guidance was  adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.  The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued new guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.2018.  Early adoption is not permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for share-based payments requiring a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards when that performance target may be achieved after the requisite service period for the award.  This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period for which the requisite service has already been rendered.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.  Early adoption is permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued new guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.  An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, with early adoption permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2014, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for pushdown accounting in the event of a business combination.  This update provides an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity.  This guidance was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for unusual and infrequently occurring items, which eliminates the concept of extraordinary items.  An unusual and infrequently occurring item will no longer be classified as an extraordinary item and segregated from ordinary operations in the income statement, but will be shown as a component of income from continuing operations or separately disclosed in notes to the financial statements.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, with early adoption permitted.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued amended guidance on the model used to evaluate whether certain legal entities should be consolidated.  This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.  Early adoption is permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in a principal or most advantageous market.  Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on inputs, which refer broadly to assumptions that market participants use in pricing assets or liabilities.  A fair value hierarchy with three tiers has been established to prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  Level 1 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.  Level 2 inputs consist of observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.  Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include management’s own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.

 

As of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, the Company’s financialFinancial assets measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

The Company’s long term debt is classified as Level 2.  The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt which is categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, approximated fair value as the stated interest rates were variable in relation to prevailing market rates.

The Company recorded a liability for contingent consideration during the second quarter of fiscal 2014 related to the acquisition of ilumark GmbH and the launch of its new medical products.  The liability was recorded at fair value, which was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on assumptions and projections relevant to revenues.  A discount rate of 11% was used and payments are projected to occur in fiscal 2016 and 2017.  The fair value of the contingent consideration was $699 as of December 31, 2014, and is reported in other non-current liabilities.  The contingent consideration liability is classified as Level 3.

There were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels during the period.

 

(4)Income per Common Share

 

Basic net income per share was computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share was computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding assuming dilution from stock-based compensation awards during the period.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of net income per share:

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

 

The following discussion and analysis of ourthe Company’s unaudited consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with ourthe annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto. The following discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. For additional information regarding forward-looking statements and risk factors, see “Forward-Looking Statements” herein and Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in ourthe Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.2014.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires that management make assumptions and estimates that affect the results of operations and the amounts of assets and liabilities reported in the financial statements as well as related disclosures.  Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations, and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  We base ourThe Company bases its estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and other relevant factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In any given reporting period, ourthe Company’s actual results may differ from the estimates, judgments and assumptions used in preparing ourthe consolidated financial statements. 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

There was no provision for impairment charges during the first three months of fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2013, respectively. The Company will continue to evaluate goodwill and other identified intangible assets for impairment. Goodwill and other identified intangible assets are material components of the Company’s financial statements and impairment charges to the Company’s goodwill or other identified intangible assets in future periods could be material to the Company’s results of operations. 

While historical performance and current expectations have resulted in fair values of goodwill and other identified intangible assets in excess of carrying values, if our assumptions are not realized, it is possible that in the future an additional impairment charge may need to be recorded. However, it is not possible at this time to determine if an impairment charge would result or if such a charge would be material. The Company will continue to monitor the recoverability of its remaining goodwill. 

For a detailed discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies, see Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013.

Corporate Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses reflect costs associated with supporting the entire Company, including executive management and administrative functions such as accounting, treasury, legal, human resources, and information technology management, as well as other costs required to support the Company.  Corporate expenses for the first fiscal quarter of 20142015 were $3.6$4.2 million, a decreasean increase of $0.6$0.7 million, asor 20%, compared to $4.2$3.5 million infor the first fiscal quarter of 2013.2014.  The decreaseincrease was due primarily to $0.5 millionhigher legal, audit and other professional fees of reduced stock compensation expense from revised estimates consistent with the company’s fiscal 2014 guidance.

Fiscal 2014 Outlook

Landauer’s business plan for fiscal 2014 currently anticipates aggregate revenues for the year to be in the range of $140.0 to $160.0 million, and reflects the uncertainty of government funding during fiscal 2014 related to the military equipment sales opportunities the Company has developed.  The Company also anticipates that the effective tax rate for the full fiscal year will be within a range of 28% to 32%.

Based upon the above assumptions, the Company anticipates reported net income for fiscal 2014 in the range of $16.0 to $18.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2014 in the range of $46.0 to $49.0$0.7 million.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s principal source of liquidity is operating cash flows supplemented by borrowings for major acquisitions and other significant transactions.  The Company’s cash-generating capability is one of its fundamental strengths and provides it with substantial financial flexibility in meeting operating and investing needs.

Cash used by investing activities for the first three months of fiscal quarter2015 was $1.7 million, a decrease of 2014$1.2 million over the same fiscal period of 2014.  The difference was $3.6 million comparedprimarily due to the prior year’s first fiscal quarter amount of $2.4 million. The primary difference was due to a small acquisition of a small German distributor on behalf of the Medical Products segment for $1.8 million.  

Financing activities for the first fiscal quarter of 2014 were comprised primarily of long-term borrowings on the credit agreement of $14.0 million compared to the previous year’s first fiscal quarter borrowings of $4.3 million, offset by $13.0 million of repayments in the first fiscal quarter of 2014.

Cash used by financing activities for the first three months of fiscal 2015 was $5.7 million, an increase of $1.4 million over the same fiscal period of 2014.  The increase was primarily due to a reduction in net long-term borrowings.  As of December 31, 2014, and no repayments in the previous year’s first fiscal quarter.  The Company had $31.0$41.4 million of unused availability under its current $175.0 million credit facility, which provides adequate liquidity to meet its current and anticipated obligations.  During the first three months of both fiscal quarter of2015 and 2014, and 2013, the Company fundedpaid cash dividends of $5.3 million and $5.2 million, respectively, or $0.55 per share, for cash dividends declared in each fourth fiscal quarter of 2013 and 2012.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The tables below include financial measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share. These are non-GAAP measures. Management believes that such measures supplement evaluations using operating income, net income, and diluted earnings per share and other GAAP measures, and are a useful indicator for investors. These indicators can help readers gain a meaningful understanding of the Company’s core operating results and future prospects without the effect of non-recurring and non-cash items and the Company’s ability to generate cash flows from operations that are available for taxes, capital expenditures, and debt repayment. Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flows or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP.million.

 

The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for internal budgetingexpects to meet short-term liquidity requirements (including capital expenditures) through net cash from operating activities and other managerial purposes, such as when publicly providingcash on hand. As of December 31, 2014, long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of obligations under the Company’s business outlook and as a measurement for potential acquisitions. A limitation associated with Adjusted EBITDA is that itlong-term debt obligations.  The Company does not reflecthave any required debt repayments until August 2, 2018, when the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the Company’s business. Management evaluates the costs of such tangible and intangible assets through other financial measures such as capital expenditures. Management compensates for these limitations by also relying on the comparable GAAP financial measure of operating income, which includes depreciation and amortization.

These non-GAAP measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but they should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.debt facility expires.  The Company intends to continue to provide these non-GAAP financial measureswas in compliance with all covenants as part of its future earnings discussions and, therefore, the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide consistency in the Company’s financial reporting.December 31, 2014.

As of the end of the period covered by this report,December 31, 2014, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’sour management, including theour Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure“disclosure controls and proceduresprocedures” as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e)Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Based upon that evaluation, the Company’sour CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of December  31, 2013 were effective.the material weaknesses that existed in our internal control over financial reporting described below. 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

We previously identified and reported the following material weaknesses in internal controls in financial reporting:

Control Environment - We did not maintain an effective control environment as we did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge of accounting, experience and training commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. Additionally, we did not consistently establish appropriate authorities and responsibilities in pursuit of our financial reporting objectives.  These material weaknesses contributed to the following control deficiencies, each of which is considered to be a material weakness:

·

Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows:  We did not design effective controls over the preparation and review of our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.  Specifically, controls were not designed to evaluate whether transactions were properly classified within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, including nonrecurring transactions and adjustments pertaining to purchases of property, plant and equipment.  This material weakness resulted in errors in our historical financial statements.  The Company recorded adjustments to correct these errors as follows:

o

Revising its fiscal 2013 Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows reflecting adjustments in cash flows from investing and operating activities

·

IT general controls and segregation of duties: We did not design and maintain processes and procedures that restrict access to key financial systems and records to appropriate users and evaluate whether appropriate segregation of duties is maintained. Specifically, certain personnel had access to financial application, programs and data beyond that needed to perform their individual job responsibilities without independent monitoring. This material weakness did not result in a material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements. 

Risk Assessment - We did not design and implement effective risk assessment with regard to our processes and procedures commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. Specifically, we did not design and implement controls in response to risks of misstatement of the financial statements.  This material weakness contributed to the following control deficiencies, each of which is considered to be a material weakness:

·

Revenue: We did not maintain processes and procedures that were adequately designed, documented and executed to support the accurate and timely reporting of revenue and the related receivables.      Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls to evaluate whether revenue was recognized in accordance with agreed-upon terms and conditions, including customer order entry, pricing, customer acceptance provisions, and recorded in the proper period. This material weakness resulted in errors in our historical financial statements.  The Company recorded adjustments to correct these errors as follows:

o

Restating its fiscal 2013 financial statements reflecting adjustments in net sales, accounts receivable, deferred revenue, cost of sales and inventory.

o

Revising its fiscal 2012 financial statements reflecting adjustments in net sales, accounts receivable, deferred revenue, cost of sales and inventory.

·

Foreign affiliate cash and investments: We did not design effective controls to evaluate whether cash and investments held by foreign affiliates were appropriately accounted for and classified.  This material weakness resulted in errors in our historical financial statements.  The Company recorded adjustments to correct these errors as follows:

o

Restating its fiscal 2013 financial statements reflecting adjustments in cash, investments, accumulated other comprehensive income, interest expense and other income (expense).

o

Revising its fiscal 2012 financial statements reflecting adjustments in cash, investments, accumulated other comprehensive income, interest expense and other income (expense).

Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly state in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Remediation Plan and Activities

In response to the identified material weaknesses, our management, with oversight from our audit committee, has dedicated significant resources and efforts to improve our control environment and risk assessment and to remedy the identified material weaknesses. We are currently evaluating the impact of the material weaknesses and are in the process of taking the following actions:

25


Table of Contents

·

Commencing a comprehensive risk assessment process to assess risks and identify, design, implement, and re-evaluate our control activities to address the risks identified, including implementation of monitoring controls related to the design and operating effectiveness of control activities

·

Establishing appropriate roles and responsibilities within our world-wide finance and accounting departments to support the improvement of knowledge and experience over financial reporting;

·

Evaluating our training programs and developing additional training programs for our world-wide finance and accounting personnel; and

·

Strengthening our policies and procedures and determining guidelines for documentation of controls throughout our domestic and international locations for consistency of design and operation.

We believe that the foregoing actions will support the improvement of our internal control over financial reporting, and through our efforts to identify, design and implement the necessary control activities. We will continue to devote significant time and attention to these remediation efforts. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to address the material weaknesses or determine to modify the remediation plan described above. Until the remediation steps set forth above, including the efforts to implement and test the necessary control activities we identify, are fully completed, the material weaknesses described above will continue to exist.
