NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
September 30, 1995
NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of
the results for the interim periods presented have been included. Operating
results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1995. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form
l0-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.
NOTE B--INCOME PER SHARE
Primary income per share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during each year and common stock equivalents.
NOTE C--RESTATEMENT FOR POOLING OF INTERESTS
The financial statements for all prior periods have been restated to include the
accounts of American Telcom Corp. of Georgia, Inc. ("American Telcom") and
Access West, Inc., ("Access West") which were acquired by the Company in
separate pooling of interests transactions in May 1995, in which 279,081 total
shares of Inter-Tel Common Stock were issued. Neither American Telcom nor Access
West constituted a significant subsidiary as defined under the regulations. In
the statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 1994 net sales
increased by $8,724,000 and net income decreased by $102,000 as a result of the
restatement. The restatement reduced earnings per share by $.02 per share for
the nine months ended September 30, 1994. In the statements of income for the
three months ended March 31, 1995 net sales and net income increased by
$3,905,000 and $26,000, respectively, as a result of the restatement. The
restatement did not affect earnings per share for the period.
NOTE D - SPECIAL CHARGE
Year-to-date net income includes a special charge reflecting the costs
associated with integrating the operations of American Telcom and Access West.
The special charge, taken during the second quarter of 1995, principally
includes costs associated with redundancy in inventories, equipment abandonment,
the combination and relocation of business operations, employee reductions, and
the write-off of intangible assets.
PART I.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results Of Operations
Net sales for the third quarter of 1995 increased by $7.5 million or
24.9% over the same quarter of 1994. The increase was primarily attributable to
increased shipments through the Company's direct dealer network and long
distance operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, net sales
increased by $20.0 million or 22.5% over net sales for the nine months ended
September 30, 1994. For these periods, the increases were primarily attributable
to increased shipments of AXXESS systems and software products through the
Company's dealer network and direct sales offices, and an increase in sales of
long distance services.
Percentages to net sales for other operating accounts were as follows:

----- ----- ----- -----
Net income 6.6 4.4 5.2 4.5
----- ----- ----- -----
Gross profit for the third quarter of 1995 increased 33.2% to $15.7
million from $11.8 million of the third quarter of 1994. Gross profit increased
to $44.7 million, or 41.2% of net sales, in the first nine months of 1995 from
$34.7 million, or 39.1% of net sales, in the first nine months of 1994. Gross
margin increased during both periods primarily as a result of a higher
percentage of sales derived from AXXESS systems and software, which was offset
in part by a higher percentage of sales through dealers and increased sales of
the company's long distance services.
Research and development expenses for the third quarter of 1995
increased to $1.5 million from $1.1 million for the third quarter of 1994.
Research and development expenses increased to $4.4 million, or 4.0% of net
sales, in the first nine months of 1995 from $3.3 million, or 3.7% of net sales,
in the first nine months of 1994. This increase in both comparable periods was
primarily attributable to expenses relating to the introduction of new products,
including the AXXESS version 3.0, the Inter-Tel Axxent and AxxessoryTalk version
3.0. The Company expects that research and development expenses will continue to
increase in absolute dollars as the Company continues to develop new and enhance
existing technologies and products. These expenses may vary, however, as a
percentage of net sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of
1995 increased 22.3% to $10.7 million from $8.7 million for the third quarter of
1994. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $31.0 million,
or 28.5% of net sales, in the first nine months of 1995 from $25.5 million, or
28.7% of net sales, in the first nine months of 1994. This increase in absolute
dollars in both periods was primarily attributable to the costs associated with
hiring and training sales personnel throughout Inter-Tel's direct sales
offices. Higher sales commissions were also paid based upon increased levels of
net sales. The Company expects that selling, general and administrative expenses
will increase in absolute dollars, but may vary as a percentage of net sales.
Interest and other income in both periods consisted primarily of
interest income.
Interest expense during 1995 has been virtually eliminated and other
income increased principally as a result of the temporary investment of the net
proceeds from public offerings of common stock in late 1993 and during August,
1995.
Net income for the third quarter of 1995 was $2.5 million ($.20 per
share) compared to net income of $1.3 million ($.12 per share) for the third
quarter of 1994, an increase of 87.5%. Net income increased 40.6% to $5.6
million, or $.48 per share, in the first nine months of 1995 from $4.0 million,
or $.37 per share, in the first nine months of 1994. Year-to-date net income
includes a special charge of approximately $815,000, or $.07 per share,
reflecting the costs associated with integrating the operations of the two
acquired companies. The special charge, taken during the second quarter of 1995,
principally includes costs associated with redundancy in inventories, equipment
abandonment, the combination and relocation of business operations, employee
reductions, and the write-off of intangible assets. Without this special charge,
the Company would have reported net income of $6.4 million, or $.55 per share,
in the nine months ended September 30, 1995, an increase of 60% over net income
of $4.0 million in the first nine months of 1994.
Inflation/Currency Fluctuation
Inflation and currency fluctuations have not previously had a material
impact on Inter-Tel's operations. International sales and procurement agreements
have traditionally been denominated in U.S. currency. Moreover, a significant
amount of contract manufacturing has been or is expected to be moved to domestic
sources. The expansion of international operations in the United Kingdom and
Europe and anticipated sales in Japan and Asia and elsewhere could result in
higher international sales as a percentage of total revenues, but international
revenues are currently not significant.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company continues to expand its dealer network, which has required
and is expected to continue to require working capital for increased accounts
receivables and inventories. During the first nine months of 1995, accounts
receivable and inventories increased approximately $11.8 million. This increase
was principally funded by operating cash flow and existing cash balances. The
Company also expended approximately $5.9 million during the first nine months of
1995 for property and equipment. The Company intends to continue to make
significant capital expenditures through the end of 1995, principally relating
to the implementation of the Company's new MIS systems. At September 30, 1995,
the Company had $38.5 million in cash and equivalents, which represents an
increase of approximately $22.9 million from December 31, 1994.
The Company has a loan agreement with Bank One, Arizona, N.A. This
agreement provides for a $5.0 million, unsecured, revolving line of credit,
which is being used primarily to support international letters of credit to
suppliers. Outstanding balances bear interest at the bank's prime rate. In the
fourth quarter of 1993, the Company repaid all long and short term debt from a
portion of the net proceeds received from its 1993 public offering. The
remaining proceeds were added to working capital. During the third quarter of
1995, the Company completed another secondary stock offering. A portion of the
net proceeds may be used to finance strategic acquisitions or corporate
alliances. The Company intends to use the balance of the net proceeds primarily
for working capital, capital expenditures relating to the upgrade of
infrastructure and other general corporate purposes.
The Company offers to its customers lease financing and other services,
including its Totalease program, through its Inter-Tel Leasing subsidiary. The
Company funds its Totalease program in part through the sale to financial
institutions of rental income streams under the leases. Resold Totalease rentals
totaling $30.8 million and $19.9 million remain unbilled at September 30, 1995
and December 31, 1994, respectively. The Company is obligated to repurchase such
income streams in the event of defaults by lease customers and, accordingly,
maintains reserves based upon loss experience and past due accounts. Although
the Company to date has been able to resell the rental streams from leases under
the Totalease program profitably and on a substantially current basis, the
timing and profitability of lease resales could impact the Company's business
and operating results, particularly in an environment of fluctuating interest
rates. If the Company is required to repurchase rental streams and realize
losses thereon in amounts exceeding its reserves, its operating results will be
adversely affected.
The Company believes that its working capital and credit facilities,
together with the net proceeds from its recently announced pending public
offering and cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund
purchases of capital equipment, finance any cash acquisitions which the Company
may consider and provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future.
However, to the extent that additional funds are required in the future to
address working capital needs and to provide funding for capital expenditures,
expansion of the business or additional acquisitions, the Company will seek
additional financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing will
be available when required or on acceptable terms.
