Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
1. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X.
Consequently, they do not include all the disclosures required under
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
However, in the opinion of the management of CLARK Material Handling
Company (the "Company"), the consolidated financial statements presented
herein contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
For further information regarding the Company's accounting policies and the
basis of presentation of the financial statements, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
2. Inventories consist of the following:
June 30, December 31,
1997 1996
-------- ------------
Finished equipment $ 10,477 $ 12,797
Replacement parts 21,837 24,107
Work-in-progress 5,669 1,402
Raw materials and supplies 24,016 22,135
---------- ------------
Net inventories $ 61,999 $ 60,441
========== ============
3. There have been no material changes in the status of the Company's legal
proceedings or its other contingent obligations since December 31, 1996.
4. On February 28, 1997, the Company purchased substantially all the assets of
HLT (Hydroelectric Lift Trucks) a supplier of upright material handling
equipment, for $5 million. Assets acquired included $3.9 million of
inventory and $1.1 million of equipment and tooling. The purchase was
financed through a short-term note which was paid in the second quarter of
1997. The Company is leasing the former company's facility and is
continuing production of the equipment, primarily for its own use. The
acquisition was not significant and pro forma data is not presented because
it is not material.
5. The Company's operating results are subject to fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates as well as the currency translation of its foreign
operations into U.S. dollars. The Company manufactures products in the U.S.
and Germany and exports products to more than 50 countries worldwide. The
Company's foreign sales, the majority of which occur in Germany, are
subject to exchange rate volatility. The Company has not historically
hedged its foreign currency risk.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company's Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.
General
The Company is a leading international designer, manufacturer and marketer of a
complete line of forklift trucks, which it markets through a global network of
285 dealers. The Company's large installed base, which management estimates to
be approximately 350,000 units in operation worldwide, provides for substantial
ongoing replacement part sales, which typically generate significantly higher
gross margins than new product sales.
Results of Operations
Three months ended June 30, 1997, compared to the three months ended June 30,
1996:
Net Sales
- ---------
Net sales were $119.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an
increase of $3.6 million or 3.1% from $115.4 million for the same period in
1996. Machines sales increased 3.4% while parts sales increased 1.9%. Machine
unit sales in North America increased 5.3% due to the continuing strong North
American market while European machine unit sales also increased by 6.9% due to
a strengthening European market.
Gross Profit
- ------------
Gross profit increased $0.6 million (4.6%) to $13.6 million in the second
quarter of 1997 compared to $13.0 million in the second quarter of 1996. Cost
reduction programs, mainly in material costs, and favorable efficiencies due to
higher sales and production levels resulted in this increase in gross profit.
Engineering, Selling and Administrative Expense
- -----------------------------------------------
Engineering, selling and administrative expense increased $0.3 million to $8.7
million for the second quarter of 1997 from $8.4 million (including parent
company management fees) during the same period of 1996. Increases in
engineering, information systems, and selling expense to support the Company's
growth objectives were offset by decreases in administrative expenses.
Administrative expenses decreased by approximately $1.2 million due to net
savings resulting from the purchase of the Company from it's previous owner.
Income from Operations
- ----------------------
Income from operations increased $0.3 million to $4.9 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $4.6 million for the same period in 1996
due to the reasons discussed above.
Interest and Other Costs
- ------------------------
Net interest and other expense of the Company was $3.6 million during the three
months ended June 30, 1997, while the predecessor to the Company (the
"Predecessor") incurred net interest and other expense of
7
<PAGE>
$4.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 1996. The Predecessor's
parent charged the Predecessor more interest costs than the Company presently
incurs as an independent entity.
Net Income (Loss)
- -----------------
The Company reported net income of $1.1 million during the three months ended
June 30, 1997 while the Predecessor recorded a net income of $0.5 million for
the same period in 1996. Higher operating profit and reduced interest and other
costs resulted in higher net income during the second quarter of 1997.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996:
Net Sales
- ---------
Net sales were $229.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an
increase of $5.5 million or 2.5% from $224.2 million for the same period in
1996. Machines sales increased 3.5% while parts sales declined 1.4%. Machine
unit sales in North America increased 8.6% due to the stronger North American
market while European machine unit sales decreased by 2.3%.
North American parts sales were greater than those of the prior year by 1.7%
while parts sales declined in Europe due to a combination of lower activity
levels and increased competition.
Gross Profit
- ------------
Gross profit increased $1.8 million (7.4%) to $26.2 million in the first six
months of 1997 compared to $24.4 in the first quarter of 1996. Cost reduction
programs, mainly in material costs, and favorable efficiencies due to higher
sales and production levels resulted in this increase in gross profit.
Engineering, Selling and Administrative Expense
- -----------------------------------------------
Engineering, selling and administrative expense remained about the same at $17.5
million for the first half of 1997 compared to the same period of 1996.
Increases in engineering and selling expense to support the Company's growth
objectives were offset by decreases in administrative expenses. In the first
half of 1997, administrative expenses were approximately $2.3 million lower than
in the first half of 1996 due to net savings resulting from the purchase of the
Company from it's previous owner.
Income from Operations
- ----------------------
Income from operations increased $1.6 million (or 22.5%) to $8.7 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $7.1 million for the same period in
1996 due to the reasons discussed above.
Interest and Other Costs
- ------------------------
Net interest and other expense of the Company was $7.2 million during the six
months ended June 30, 1997, while the Predecessor incurred net interest and
other expense of $9.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 1996. The
Predecessor's parent charged the Predecessor more interest costs than the
Company presently incurs as an independent entity.
8
<PAGE>
Net Income (Loss)
- -----------------
The Company reported net income of $1.3 million during the six months ended June
30, 1997 while the Predecessor recorded a loss of $2.0 million for the same
period in 1996. Higher operating profit and reduced interest and other costs
resulted in net income during the first half of 1997 as compared to the same
period in 1996.
Backlog
The Company's backlog of orders at June 30, 1997 was $97.4 million, up 25.5%
from June 30, 1996, when the backlog of orders was $77.6 million, due to
stronger market conditions. Substantially all of the Company's backlog of orders
are expected to be filled within one year, although there can be no assurance
that all such orders will be filled within that time period. The cancellation or
delay of certain orders could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition
The Company's financial condition and working capital did not change
significantly at June 30, 1997 from December 31, 1996. Declines in the value of
the German Deutsche-mark reduced the working capital of the Company's German
operations; these declines were offset by increases in domestic working capital.
The fluctuation in the German currency resulted in a substantial increase in the
currency translation amount included within stockholder's equity. Cash provided
by operating activities was $8.0 million, and the Company's cash levels remained
consistent with December 31, 1996 levels. Capital expenditures totaled $2.7
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997. In addition, the Company
purchased substantially all the assets of Hydroelectric Lift Trucks ("HLT") on
February 28, 1997 in exchange for a $5.0 million short-term note which matured
and was paid in the second quarter of 1997. The Company was not required to
borrow any funds under its $30 million line of credit during the quarter, and
the full amount of credit under the line remained available at June 30, 1997.
The Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness is somewhat restricted by
the covenants set forth in the Company's borrowing arrangements.
In addition to paying the note issued to acquire HLT, the Company made its first
interest payment of $6.5 million on its 10 3/4% Senior Notes on May 15, 1997.
Management believes that existing cash levels and the $30 million line of credit
will be sufficient to meet the Company's needs for the next twelve months.
