SCHOLASTIC CORPORATION |
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED |
(Dollar amounts in millions, except per share data) |
1. Basis of Presentation
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Scholastic Corporation (the “Corporation”) and all wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Scholastic” or the “Company”). All significant intercompanyIntercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements have not been audited but reflect those adjustments consisting of normal recurring items that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010 (the “Annual Report”).
The Company’s fiscal year is not a calendar year. Accordingly, references in this document to fiscal 2010 relate to the twelve month period ended May 31, 2010.
Discontinued Operations
As more fully described in Note 2, “Discontinued Operations,” theThe Company closed or sold several operations during fiscal 2008, 2009 and 2009,2010 and presently holds for sale one operation. All of these businesses are classified as discontinued operations in the Company’s financial statements.
The remaining assets and liabilities associated with the foregoing discontinued businesses or operations are presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as “Current assets of discontinued operations” and “Current liabilities of discontinued operations” as of August 31, 2010,February 28, 2011, May 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009. In fiscal 2010, the Company sold a previously discontinued non-core book distribution business.February 28, 2010. The aggregate results of operations of these businesses for the three and nine months ended August 31,February 28, 2011 and 2010 and 2009 are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as “(Loss) earnings“Earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax.” The aggregate cash flows of these businesses are also presented separately in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows for the threenine months ended August 31, 2010February 28, 2011 and 2009.2010. All corresponding prior year periods presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to reflect the discontinued operations presentation.
During the three months ended August 31, 2010,first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company determined that its distribution facility in Danbury, Connecticut (the “Danbury Facility”) was no longer “held for sale”.sale.” Accordingly, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Danbury Facility are included in Continuing Operationscontinuing operations for all periods presented.
Reclassification
The current presentation includes a net reclassification of certain costs to “Cost of goods sold” from “Selling, general and administrative expenses” totaling $2.2 for the three months ended August 31, 2009.
Seasonality
The Company’s school-based book clubs, school-based book fairs and most of its magazines operate on a school-year basis. Therefore, the Company’s business is highly seasonal. As a result, the Company’s revenues in the first and third quarters of the fiscal year generally are lower than its revenues in the other two fiscal quarters. Typically, school-based book club and book fair revenues are greatest in the second and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, while revenues from the sale of instructional materials and educational technology products are highest in the first and fourth quarters. The Company typically experiences losses from operations in the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. Due to the seasonal fluctuations that occur, the August 31, 2009February 28, 2010 condensed consolidated balance sheet is included for comparative purposes.
Use of estimates
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. The preparation of these financial statements involves the use of estimates and assumptions by management, which affects the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current business factors, and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, all of which are necessary in order to form a basis for determining the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates the adequacy of its reserves and the estimates used in calculations, including, but not limited to: collectability of accounts receivable; sales returns; gross margin rates used to determine inventory

returns; gross margin rates used to determine inventory values; gross profits for book fair operations during interim periods; amortization periods; stock-based compensation expense; pension and other post-retirement obligations; tax rates;taxes; recoverability of inventories, deferred promotions costs, deferred income taxes and tax reserves, prepublication costs and royalty advances; and the fair value of goodwill reporting units and other intangibles.
Restricted Cash
The condensed consolidated balance sheets include restricted cash of $1.1, $0.0 and $0.0 as of February 28, 2011, May 31, 2010 and February 28, 2010, respectively, which is reported in “Other current assets.” This restricted cash was acquired with the assets of Math Solutions. See Note 2, “Acquisition and Land Purchase,” for a further description of the acquisition.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued an update to authoritative guidance on the revenue recognition related to multiple deliverable revenue arrangements. The guidance addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. Vendors often provide multiple products or services to their customers. Those deliverables often are provided at different points in time or over different time periods. The current authoritative guidance establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for arrangements under which the vendor will perform multiple revenue-generating activities. Specifically, this guidance addresses how to separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate arrangement consideration to one or more units of accounting. This guidance will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not chosen early adoption and is evaluating the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In October 2009, the FASB issued an update to authoritative guidance related to certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. The accounting guidance update addresses the accounting revenue arrangements that contain tangible products and software and it affects vendors that sell or lease tangible products in an arrangement that contains software that is more than incidental to the tangible product as a whole. The update clarifies what guidance should be used in allocating and measuring revenue. Tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality are no longer within the scope of the software recognition guidance “Software – Revenue Recognition.” The amendment requires that hardware components of a tangible product containing software components always be excluded from the software revenue guidance. This guidance will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not chosen early adoption and is evaluating the update. The Company does not expect a significant impact on the Company’sits consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In AprilDecember 2010, the FASB issued an update to the authoritative guidance on the milestone methodtwo-step testing required for impairment of revenue recognition. The objectivegoodwill and other intangible assets. When a goodwill impairment test is performed (either on an annual or interim basis), an entity must assess whether the carrying amount of this update isa reporting unit exceeds its fair value. If it does, an entity must perform an additional test to provide guidance on defining a milestonedetermine whether goodwill has been impaired and determining when it may be appropriate to applycalculate the milestone methodamount of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. Research or development arrangements frequently include payment provisions whereby a portion or all of the consideration is contingent upon milestone events such as a specific result from the research or development efforts. An entity often recognizes these milestone payments as revenue in their entirety upon achieving the related milestone, commonly referred to as the milestone method.that impairment.

7. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic (loss)A portion of the Company’s restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted to employees participate in earnings through cumulative non-forfeitable dividends payable to the employees upon vesting of the RSUs. For periods in which the Company has net income, basic earnings per Common and Class A shares outstanding (the “Issued Shares”) is calculated as the lesser of:
• | Net earnings divided by the weighted average shares outstanding of the Issued Shares during the period (the “Treasury Stock Method”); or | |
• | The sum of earnings distributed in the period to the Issued Shares and undistributed earnings available to the Issued Shares (excluding earnings attributable to the participating RSUs) divided by the weighted average shares outstanding of the Issued Shares during the period (the “Two Class Method”). | |
Diluted earnings per share for periods in which the Company has net income is calculated as the lesser of: | ||
• | The Treasury Stock Method incorporating the effect of dilutive shares; or | |
• | The Two Class Method incorporating the effect of dilutive shares. |
In periods of net loss, dilutive earnings per share is computed by dividing net (loss) earnings byare not reported as the weighted average Shareseffect of Class A Stock and Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) earnings per share is calculated to give effect to potentially dilutive options to purchase Class A and Common Stock and restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Company’s stock-based compensation plans that were outstanding during the period. shares becomes anti-dilutive.
In a period in which the Company reports a discontinued operation, Earnings (loss) earnings from continuing operations is used as the “control number” in determining whether potentially dilutive common shares are dilutive or anti-dilutive. The Company calculates per share figures prior to rounding in millions. The following table summarizes the reconciliation of the numerators and denominators for the basic and diluted (loss) earnings per share computation for the periods indicated:

Potentially dilutive shares do not impact (loss) earnings per share, as they are anti-dilutive due to losses in the three months ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The number of potentially dilutive options with market prices exceeding exercise prices to purchase Class A Stock and Common Stock and restricted stock units which would have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, because they were anti-dilutive, was approximately 0.4 million and 0.1 million for the three months ended August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Options outstanding pursuant to compensation plans were 6.4 million and 6.4 million as of August 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
During the three months ended August 31, 2010, the Company repurchased 388,426 common shares for approximately $9.7 pursuant to a share buy-back program authorized by the Board of Directors. As of August 31, 2010, $0.5 remains available for future purchases.

Potentially dilutive options outstanding pursuant to compensation plans that were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive were 5.4 million and 5.6 million for the three-month periods ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 4.4 million and 5.3 million for the nine-month periods ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Had the Company reported net income for the three-month period ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, the dilutive effect for the periods ended February 28, 2011 and 2010 would have been 0.7 million and 0.5 million, respectively.
During the nine months ended February 28, 2011, the Company repurchased 388,426 common shares on the open market for approximately $9.7 pursuant to a share buy-back program authorized by the Board of Directors.

On September 9, 2010, the Company purchased the assets of Math Solutions, an education resources and professional development company focusing on K-12 math instruction, for $8.0, net of cash acquired. The Company has integrated this business with its existing educational technology businesses. The Company utilized Level 3 fair value measurement inputs, using its own assumptions including internally developed discounted cash flow forecasts, to determine the fair value of the assets acquired and the amount of goodwill to be allocated to the Math Solutions business. As a result, the Company recognized $1.5 of goodwill and $5.6 of amortizable intangible assets. In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company also recognized $0.2 of goodwill associated with a previously acquired international entity.
As of May 31, 2010, the Company determined that the carrying value of its direct-to-home catalog business specializing in toys exceeded the fair value of this reporting unit. The Company employed internally developed discounted cash flow forecasts and market comparisons to determine the fair value of the reporting unit and the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $0.4 at May 31, 2010.
As of February 28, 2011, goodwill of $76.8 resides in reporting units within theEducational Publishing segment, with fair values that modestly exceed the reporting units’ carrying values. A decline in the business environment could result in a goodwill impairment.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company and its joint venture partner terminated a book distribution joint venture in the United Kingdom. As a result of this transaction, the Company received a portion of the business and a related customer list previously held by the joint venture in exchange for the partial forgiveness of amounts owed to the Company by the joint venture and related entities. The Company recognized this customer list in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 with a carrying value of $5.1, which the Company intended to operate apart from its existing customer list. In the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company determined that, to maximize profitability, the acquired customer list should ultimately be combined with its existing customer list. As a result, the Company assessed this customer list for impairment and determined that the customer list was impaired based upon the highest and best use for this asset. This assessment incorporated internally developed cash flow projections to measure fair value, as market data for this asset is not readily available. Accordingly, the Company recognized an impairment charge in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 related to this asset of $3.8.

Amortization expenseIn the current fiscal year, the Company recognized $5.6 of amortizable intangible assets as a result of the Math Solutions acquisition. The Company utilized Level 3 fair value measurement inputs, using its own assumptions including internally developed discounted cash flow forecasts and market comparisons, to determine the fair value of the intangible assets acquired.
In the current fiscal year, the Company determined that certain intangible assets associated with publishing and trademark rights, which were previously accounted for as indefinite-lived assets, were no longer indefinite-lived. Accordingly, the Company assessed these assets for impairment as of September 1, 2010, and subsequently commenced amortization of the assets. The Company determined that the fair value of the assets exceeded their carrying value as of September 1, 2010, and therefore no impairment was recognized. The Company employed Level 3 fair value measurement techniques to determine the fair value of these assets as of September 1, 2010, including the relief from royalty method.

These initiatives included the elimination of the front list for certain library-specific titles. The Company will continue to serve the library market through other channels, notably the trade channel within theChildren’s Book Publishing and Distribution segment.segment and various on-line and digital initiatives. As a result of these initiatives, and in tandem with reduced expectations in certainEducational Publishing print businesses, the Company determined that intangible assets of $28.7 and prepublication costs of $7.6 associated with such businesses, totaling $36.3, were impaired. The Company employed qualitative and internally developed quantitative methods, including discounted cash flow models, to determine the fair value of the asset to a market participant. Significant inputs, includedincluding a best use analysis of the existing market for the asset, includingand an analysis of the uses for the asset other than its current usage resultingresulted in a determination that the market for the asset had declined significantly.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company determined that the fair value of the trademark associated with the Company’s direct-to-home catalog business specializing in toys was less than the carrying value of the trademark. The Company used historical and projected results while applying a residual income fair value method to make this determination and recognized an impairment of this trademark of $2.6.
