Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note A - Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements include the accounts of Harte-Hanks Communications, Inc.
and subsidiaries (the "Company").
The 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 adjustments) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six
months ended June 30 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1993.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative
purposes.
Note B - Income Taxes
The Company's quarterly income tax calculation is based on an
effective income tax rate that is derived by estimating pretax income
and income tax expense for the entire year ended December 31.
Applying the estimated annual effective income tax rate to the pretax
income for the six months ended June 30, 1994 results in an income tax
expense of $8.7 million. The effective income tax rate calculated is
higher than the federal statutory rate of 35% due to the addition of
state taxes and to certain expenses recorded for financial reporting
purposes, primarily goodwill amortization, which are not deductible
for federal income tax purposes.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Operating results, excluding the effect of the second quarter 1993 goodwill
write-down (discussed under "Goodwill Write-Down," page 12), were as
follows:
<TABLE>
Three months ended Six months ended
In thousands June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Revenues $126,866 $116,011 9.4% $241,981 $216,629 11.7%
Operating expenses 109,106 101,370 7.6% 215,782 196,020 10.1%
Operating income $ 17,760 $ 14,641 21.3% $ 26,199 $ 20,609 27.1%
Net income $ 6,939 $ 2,296 202.2% $ 9,206 $ 1,174 684.2%
</TABLE>
Revenues grew 9.4% to $126.9 million in the second quarter of 1994 as
compared to the second quarter of 1993. The most dramatic growth occurred
in the direct marketing business where revenues increased 29.4%. The
Company's growth resulted from the development of new products and services,
shopper circulation expansion and improving general economic conditions.
The same growth factors also caused operating expenses to rise.
Direct Marketing
Direct marketing operating results were as follows:
<TABLE>
Three months ended Six months ended
In thousands June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Revenues $39,377 $30,428 29.4% $74,028 $54,694 35.3%
Operating expenses 34,927 27,210 28.4% 67,296 49,954 34.7%
Operating income $ 4,450 $ 3,218 38.3% $ 6,732 $ 4,740 42.0%
</TABLE>
Direct marketing revenues increased $8.9 million in the second quarter of
1994 when compared to the second quarter of 1993. Revenue growth occurred
in all service categories (database, integrated direct marketing,
transportation, marketing services and data processing/addressing). The
most significant revenue increases occurred in database, marketing services
and integrated direct marketing. These service offerings enable customers
to specifically select and interact with their marketing targets.
Transportation revenues were also up sharply as a result of increased
volumes. Overall, revenue growth resulted from increased business from both
new and existing customers, particularly in services provided to the retail,
banking, mutual funds and other financial industries.
Payroll costs increased $3.1 million for the second quarter of 1994 as
compared to 1993, primarily due to increased hiring to support direct
marketing's revenue growth. Production costs also rose, mainly due to
growth-related expenses in the transportation service offering.
Direct marketing revenues increased $19.3 million in the first half of 1994
as compared to the first half of 1993. Increased revenues reflected
significant growth in all service categories, particularly in database,
integrated direct marketing, transportation and marketing services.
Revenues for the first six months of 1994 were also affected by the April
1993 acquisition of Direct Market Concepts, Inc.
First half 1994 operating expenses rose $17.3 million when compared to 1993,
reflecting increased activity as well as investments to support future
growth. First half 1994 operating expenses were also affected by the April
1993 acquisition.
Shoppers
Shopper operating results, excluding the second quarter 1993 goodwill write-
down, were as follows:
<TABLE>
Three months ended Six months ended
In thousands June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Revenues $45,350 $44,928 0.9% $87,442 $85,460 2.3%
Operating expenses 39,634 40,027 -1.0% 79,465 78,836 0.8%
Operating income $ 5,716 $ 4,901 16.6% $ 7,977 $ 6,624 20.4%
</TABLE>
Excluding revenues from the Company's smallest shopper, sold in February
1994, shopper revenues grew $2.0 million in the second quarter of 1994 as
compared to 1993. Despite the continued weak California economy, revenues
grew as a result of circulation expansion and slight improvement in existing
circulation. During the 12 months ended June 30, 1994, circulation for the
Company's four remaining shoppers grew from 6.4 million to 6.9 million
households with the largest increases occurring in Southern California and,
to a lesser extent, Miami. Circulation increased 225,000 net households in
the first six months of 1994.
Excluding operating expenses from the divested shopper, second quarter
operating expenses increased $1.4 million. Postage costs increased $0.5
million primarily due to higher circulation and, to a lesser extent,
overweight postage. Newsprint costs were flat, with increased costs
resulting from higher volumes relating to the circulation growth offset by
average price declines. Payroll costs rose $0.8 million, and general and
administrative expenses remained flat.
Excluding revenues from the divested shopper, year-to-date revenues
increased $4.1 million as compared to 1993. Revenue growth for the first
half of 1994 was primarily attributable to circulation expansion and, to a
lesser extent, increased advertising in existing circulation zones.
Excluding operating expenses from the divested shopper, year-to-date
operating costs increased $3.1 million. Payroll, postage and newsprint
costs increased $1.3 million, $1.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively,
due to increased circulation. General and administrative expenses remained
flat.
<PAGE>
Newspapers
Newspaper operating results, excluding the second quarter 1993 goodwill
write-down, were as follows:
<TABLE>
Three months ended Six months ended
In thousands June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Revenues $34,791 $32,935 5.6% $67,012 $62,953 6.4%

Operating income $ 6,997 $ 5,247 33.4% $11,659 $ 8,352 39.6%
</TABLE>
Newspaper revenues increased $1.9 million in the second quarter of 1994 when
compared to the second quarter of 1993. Advertising revenues were up 6.0%.
Classified advertising revenues grew 14.8% with strong automotive volumes.
Retail and national revenues were relatively flat, while insert revenues
rose 2.7%. In addition, niche and specialty product revenues were up as a
result of investments made to broaden the newspaper revenue base.
Circulation revenues increased 6.6%, reflecting home-delivery price
increases in the fall of 1993.
Payroll costs were $0.6 million higher in the second quarter of 1994 as
compared to the second quarter of 1993 due to increased sales commissions on
higher advertising volumes, normal payroll increases as well as investments
made to develop niche and specialty products. In addition, general and
administrative costs rose $0.3 million. Newsprint costs decreased $0.4
million as a result of lower average newsprint prices that offset slightly
higher volumes. Goodwill amortization decreased $0.4 million due to the
second quarter 1993 goodwill write-down of $52.7 million that related to the
Company's suburban newspapers in Boston and Dallas.
Year-to-date 1994 newspaper revenues grew $4.1 million when compared to
1993. Advertising revenues increased 7.0%, driven largely by volume
increases in classified advertising and niche and specialty products.
Circulation revenues increased 6.7%.
Payroll costs for the first six months of 1994 rose $1.3 million due to
increased advertising volumes in the Company's primary products, normal
payroll increases and investments made to support niche and specialty
product revenue growth. In addition, general and administrative costs
increased $0.5 million. Newsprint costs declined $0.3 million due to lower
average newsprint prices that offset higher volumes. Goodwill amortization
decreased $0.8 million due to the second quarter 1993 goodwill write-down.
Television
Television operating results were as follows:
<TABLE>
Three months ended Six months ended
In thousands June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change June 30, 1994 June 30, 1993 Change
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Revenues $7,348 $7,720 -4.8% $13,499 $13,522 -0.2%
Operating expenses 4,775 5,080 -6.0% 9,486 9,777 -3.0%
Operating income $2,573 $2,640 -2.5% $ 4,013 $ 3,745 7.2%
</TABLE>
<PAGE>
Television advertising revenues declined $0.4 million in the second quarter
of 1994 when compared to the same period in 1993. However, the second
quarter of 1993 was affected by a number of favorable events: the favorable
impact from the closure of one of San Antonio's daily newspapers, a special
senatorial election runoff and the San Antonio Olympic Festival. Print
graphics revenues declined in the second quarter of 1994 as compared to 1993
due to the repositioning of products and services offered. This decline was
offset by revenue growth from the direct mail product introduced in 1993 and
new revenue from the radio station purchased by KENS-TV in October 1993.
Operating income decreased 2.5% to $2.6 million as a result of continued
investment in several revenue initiatives.
For the first half of 1994, television revenues remained relatively flat
when compared to 1993.
Television expenses decreased $0.3 million in both the second quarter and
first half of 1994 when compared to the same periods in 1993. In both the
second quarter and first half of 1994, film programming costs decreased due
to the expiration of certain film contracts. To a lesser degree, graphic
production costs also declined in both periods. Payroll costs remained
relatively flat in the second quarter of 1994, while they increased in the
first half due to normal payroll increases.
Other Items Affecting Operating Results
Shoppers and direct marketing have experienced stable postal rates in recent
years. While postal rates generally go up every three years, the 10.3%
increase proposed for 1995 would be the first postal rate increase in four
years.
Newsprint expense represents approximately 7% of the Company's total
operating expenses. Both newspapers and shoppers have benefited from
favorable newsprint prices in the recent past. Newsprint prices increased
about 12% in June 1994 and will impact the Company's fourth quarter and, to
a lesser extent, third quarter expenses. An additional price increase of
approximately 9% has been announced for August 15, 1994.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $4.5 million in the second quarter of 1994 and
$9.0 million in the first half of 1994 when compared to the same periods in
1993 as a result of reduced debt levels and the use of less expensive debt.
The Company redeemed $100 million of the 11 7/8% Subordinated Debentures in
August 1993 with borrowings under its credit facility. The remaining $100
million of Debentures was redeemed in December 1993, funded primarily with
proceeds from the Company's initial public offering.
Although short term interest rates have risen in recent months, the impact
on the Company has been mitigated somewhat by more favorable pricing under
terms of the Company's credit facility as a result of increased operating
cash flow, as defined in the Company's credit facility agreement, and
reduced debt levels.
Income Taxes
The Company's income tax expense increased $3.3 million in the second
quarter of 1994 and $6.9 million in the first half of 1994 when compared to
the same periods in 1993. The expense increase was directly related to the
increased income levels.
Goodwill Write-Down
During the second quarter of 1993, the Company incurred a goodwill write-
down charge of $55.5 million. This write-down was related to the Company's
daily, semi-weekly and weekly newspapers in suburban Boston and Dallas and,
to a lesser extent, its shopper publication in Tucson. The Company sold the
Tucson shopper in February 1994.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided from operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
1994 was $17.8 million, as compared to $12.8 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1993. Net cash outflows for investing activities were
$8.7 million for the first half of 1994, as compared to $21.4 million in
1993. Investing activities for the first quarter of 1994 included
$7.8 million in capital expenditures for equipment purchases. In 1993, the
net cash outflows for investing activities of $21.4 million consisted
primarily of capital expenditures of $10.2 million and cash expenditures on
acquisitions of $9.8 million.
Capital resources are also available from and provided through the Company's
unsecured credit facility. All borrowings under the revolving credit
facility are to be repaid by December 31, 1999. Management believes that
its credit facility, together with cash provided from operating activities,
will be sufficient to fund operations, anticipated capital and film
expenditures and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future. As
of June 30, 1994, the Company had $85.8 million of unused borrowing capacity
under its credit facility, of which $54.8 million was reserved to serve as
backup for the Company's outstanding commercial paper.
