PITTWAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited; Dollars in Thousands)
NOTE 1. STOCK SPLIT
In January 1996 the Board of Directors declared a 3-for-2 stock split in
the form of a 50% stock dividend on the Company's Common and Class A stock,
payable March 1, 1996 to stockholders of record on February 14, 1996. All
share and per share data, as appropriate, reflect this split.
NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Pittway Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries (the "Company" or
"Registrant"). Summarized financial information for the limited real
estate partnership ventures and other affiliates is omitted because, when
considered in the aggregate, they do not constitute a significant
subsidiary. Certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year
classification.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited but
reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
statements contained herein. However, the financial statements and related
notes do not include all disclosures normally provided in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, these financial statements and
related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS
During the first six months of 1996, the Company acquired a foreign
distributor of alarm systems and a manufacturer of glass break detectors
for $3,065 cash and a total of $2,619 payable over three years. The
acquisitions were accounted for as purchase transactions in the
consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of
acquisition. The impact on consolidated results of operations was not
significant.
NOTE 4. MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Information about the Company's available-for-sale securities at June 30,
1996 and December 31, 1995 is as follows:
1996 1995
Current - Adjustable Rate Preferred Stocks -
Aggregate cost $ 26,636 $ 28,952
Net unrealized holding loss (2,523) (3,366)
Aggregate fair value $ 24,113 $ 25,586
7
1996 1995
Non-Current - USSB Common Stock -
Aggregate cost $ 17,401 $ 20,000
Unrealized holding gain 121,685 101,280
Aggregate fair value $139,086 $121,280
In February 1996, the Company reduced its holdings in United States
Satellite Broadcasting Company, Inc. (USSB) by selling 622,500 of its
4,789,875 shares in connection with an initial public offering of USSB's
common stock. The sale of the shares resulted in an after-tax gain of
$8,149, or $.39 per share. At December 31, 1995, prior to the initial
public offering, the Company's investment in USSB was recorded at a cost of
$20 million, or $4.175 per share.
The $121,685 unrealized gain on the 4,167,375 shares of USSB common stock
held at June 30, 1996 is included, net of $46,347 deferred taxes, in the
cumulative marketable security valuation adjustment component of
stockholders' equity.
Realized gains and losses are based upon the specific identification
method. Such gains and losses on the adjustable rate preferred stock, for
the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 were not significant.
NOTE 5. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE
The investment in affiliate consists of the Company's interest in Cylink
Corporation (Cylink), which is carried at equity. The carrying value of
this investment was increased by $23,279 to reflect the increase in the
Company's equity in Cylink's net book value as a result of an initial public
offering in February 1996. The after-tax gain recorded on the increase in
Cylink's equity was $14,413, or $.69 per share. The quoted market value of
the Company's investment in Cylink was approximately $148 million at June
30, 1996.
NOTE 6. INVENTORIES
Inventories at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 consist of the
following:
1996 1995
Raw materials $ 38,142 $ 34,440
Work in process 17,627 18,654
Finished goods -
Manufactured by the Company 66,323 55,523
Manufactured by others 51,983 45,007
Total 174,075 153,624
Less LIFO reserve (1,260) (988)
$172,815 $152,636
8
NOTE 7. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Net income per share of common capital stock is based on the combined
weighted average number of Common and Class A shares outstanding during
each period and does not include Class A shares issuable upon exercise of
stock options because the dilutive effect is not significant.
NOTE 8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In 1989 a judgment was entered against Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc.
("Saddlebrook"), a former subsidiary of the Company, in a lawsuit which
arose out of the development of Saddlebrook's resort and a portion of the
adjoining residential properties developed by the Company. The lawsuit
alleged damage to plaintiffs' adjoining property caused by surface water
effects from improvements to the properties. Damages of approximately $8
million were awarded to the plaintiffs and an injunction was entered
requiring, among other things, that Saddlebrook work with local regulatory
authorities to take corrective actions. In 1990 the trial court entered an
order vacating the judgment and awarding a new trial. In December 1994,
Saddlebrook's motion for summary judgment based on collateral estoppel was
granted on the ground that plaintiffs' claims were fully retried and
rejected in a related administrative proceeding. Plaintiffs' have appealed
the trial court's decision granting summary judgment. The Company believes
that the ultimate outcome of the aforementioned lawsuit will not have a
material adverse effect on its financial statements.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
For both the second quarter and first six months of 1996, sales increased 16%
due to continued expansion within the alarm and other security products
segment. On a year-to-date basis, domestic sales increased 12% while
international sales, representing 14% of total consolidated sales, increased
56% reflecting further market penetration in the Company's European and other
international operations and, to a lesser extent, acquisitions of foreign
businesses. Gross profit grew at about the same rate as sales. Selling,
general and administrative expenses in 1996 increased 13% over both the
second quarter and first six months of 1995 primarily due to increased costs
associated with the expanded sales volume.
Alarm product sales, accounting for 82% of consolidated revenues in 1996 (78%
in 1995), increased 23% both for the quarter and year-to-date to $224.1
million and $436.0 million, respectively. These results reflect continuing
gains in market share in key product areas and ongoing expansion in the
worldwide alarm systems market. The Company's distribution business made
significant gains by expanding its outlet network, internally and through an
acquisition in November 1995, and by capitalizing on the 1995 bankruptcy of a
major competitor. Increases at the Company's manufacturing units reflect
continued acceptance of numerous new product offerings.
9
Operating income for the segment increased 29% to $17.1 million for the
quarter and 24% to $32.8 million year-to-date primarily because of the
expanded sales volume partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense
from recent capital expenditures.
Publishing sales for the second quarter and year-to-date declined due to the
inclusion in the prior year results of a conference and seminar business,
which was sold in June 1995. Excluding this business from the 1995 results,
sales increased 3% to $48.2 million for the quarter and 4% to $93.3 million
year-to-date, while operating income increased 36% to $6.0 million for the
quarter and 37% to $9.3 million year-to-date. The improved results reflect
continuing efforts to build alternative revenue streams to supplement the
primary source of revenues, display advertising, while improving magazine
profit margins and streamlining operations. Magazine profits increased on
slightly higher advertising pages and firmer prices despite the lingering
effect of last year's paper price increases.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased in 1996 as a result of
capital additions, principally in the alarm systems segment.
Other income (expense) for the first six months of 1996 included a pre-tax
gain of $13,162 on the sale of 622,500 shares of USSB stock in connection
with its initial public offering and a pretax gain of $23,279 on the increase
in the Company's Cylink investment (after $153 of additional expenses charged
in the second quarter) resulting from Cylink's initial public offering.
Excluding these gains, other income was less favorable in 1996 principally
due to higher interest expense and reduced foreign currency transaction
gains. Earnings from affiliates and other long-term investments were higher
in the 1995 second quarter due to higher income recorded on cash
distributions from real estate ventures.
The effective tax rates in 1996 versus 1995 rose slightly to 37.6% from 37.2%
for the second quarter and to 37.4% from 37.1% for the first six months.
ACCOUNTING CHANGE
In October 1995 SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation", was
issued. The statement became effective for the 1996 fiscal year and
establishes a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock based
compensation plans and encourages adoption of that method. However,
companies may elect to continue to apply the method prescribed under
previously existing accounting rules, provided certain pro forma disclosures
are made. The Company has made such election and will provide the necessary
disclosures in the December 31, 1996 year-end consolidated financial
statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's financial condition remained strong in the first six months of
1996. Management anticipates that operations, borrowings and marketable
securities will continue to be the primary source of funds needed to meet
10
ongoing programs for capital expenditures, to finance acquisitions and
investments and to pay dividends.
In the first six months of 1996, operating profits, before the gains on the
sale of USSB stock and the increase in Cylink carrying value and depreciation
and amortization, provided $37.1 million of net cash which was
used primarily to finance the net increase in working capital items. The
remaining $5.0 million of cash generated from operations, along with $12.5
million of net proceeds from the sale of USSB stock and other marketable
securities, were used to fund $19.0 million in capital expenditures, the
acquisition of two new businesses for $3.0 million, $3.4 million of dividends
paid to stockholders, $1.6 million of net payments on borrowings and a $2.1
million net increase in notes receivable. This net use of cash resulted in a
decrease in cash and cash equivalents to $19.8 million at June 30, 1996 from
$31.4 million at December 31, 1995.
Following a $.5 million investment in the first six months of 1996, the
Company's remaining commitment in certain affordable housing ventures through
1997 is $1.5 million at June 30, 1996. However, the Company continues to
actively investigate additional investment opportunities for growth in
related areas.
The Company has real estate investments in various limited partnerships with
interests in commercial rental properties which may be sold or turned over to
lenders due to the present weak commercial real estate market. Such events
have no effect on net income although they do have a negative impact on the
Company's cash position because significant tax payments become due when the
properties are sold or returned to the lenders. The Company has
approximately $4.8 million accrued at June 30, 1996 to fully cover the
remaining tax payments that would be due if all the properties are sold or
returned to the lenders.
In February 1996, the Company sold 622,500 shares of its investment in United
States Satellite Broadcasting ("USSB") in connection with its initial public
offering and realized net cash proceeds of $15.8 million or $10.7 million
after taxes. The Company's remaining 4,167,375 USSB shares are recorded as a
non-current investment in marketable securities. The Company intends to hold
its existing investments in preferred stocks, USSB and Cylink although
occasional sales of preferred and USSB stocks may be made selectively as
conditions warrant.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On May 10, 1989, the Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial Circuit in and for
Pasco County, Florida, entered a judgment against Saddlebrook Resorts, Inc.
("Saddlebrook"), a former subsidiary of the Company, in a lawsuit which
arose out of the development of Saddlebrook's resort and a portion of the
adjoining residential properties developed by the Company. The lawsuit
(James H. Porter and Martha Porter, Trustees, et al. vs. Saddlebrook
Resorts, Inc. and The County of Pasco, Florida; Case No. CA83-1860),
alleges damage to plaintiffs' adjoining property caused by surface water
effects from improvements to the properties. Damages of approximately $8
million were awarded to the plaintiffs and an injunction was entered
requiring, among other things, that Saddlebrook work with local regulatory
authorities to take corrective actions. Saddlebrook made two motions for a
new trial, based on separate grounds. One such motion was granted on
December 18, 1990. Such grant was appealed by the plaintiffs. The other
such motion was denied on February 28, 1991. Saddlebrook appealed such
denial. The appeals were consolidated, fully briefed and heard in February
1992. Saddlebrook received a favorable ruling on March 18, 1992,
dismissing the judgment and remanding the case to the Circuit Court for a
new trial. An agreed order has been entered by the Court preserving the
substance of the injunction pending final disposition of this matter. As
part of its plan to comply with the agreed order, Saddlebrook filed
applications with the regulatory agency to undertake various remediation
efforts. Plaintiffs, however, filed petitions for administrative review of
the applications, which administrative hearing was concluded in February
1992. On March 31, 1992, the hearing officer issued a recommended order
accepting Saddlebrook's expert's testimony. The agency's governing board
was scheduled to consider this recommended order on April 28, 1992,
however, shortly before the hearing, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed
their petitions and withdrew their challenges to the staff's proposal to
issue a permit.
At the April 28, 1992 hearing the governing board closed its file on the
matter and issued the permits. Saddlebrook appealed the board's refusal to
issue a final order. On July 9, 1993 a decision was rendered for
Saddlebrook remanding jurisdiction to the governing board for further
proceedings, including entry of a final order which was issued on October
25, 1993. The plaintiffs appealed the Appellate Court decision to the
Florida Supreme Court and appealed the issuance of the final order to the
Second District Court of Appeals. The Florida Supreme Court heard the
appeal on May 3, 1994 and denied plaintiffs' appeal. The other appeal was
voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiffs on June 17, 1994. On remand to the
trial court, Saddlebrook's motion for summary judgment, based on collateral
estoppel on the ground that plaintiffs' claims were fully retried and
rejected in a related administrative proceeding was granted on December 7,
1994. Plaintiffs filed for a rehearing which was denied. Plaintiffs have
appealed the trial court's decision granting summary judgment.
12
Until October 14, 1989, Saddlebrook disputed responsibility for ultimate
liability and costs (including costs of corrective action). On that date,
the Company and Saddlebrook entered into an agreement with regard to such
matters. The agreement, as amended and restated on July 16, 1993, provides
for the Company and Saddlebrook to split equally the costs of the defense
of the litigation and the costs of certain related litigation and
proceedings, the costs of the ultimate judgment, if any, and the costs of
any mandated remedial work. Subject to certain conditions, the agreement
permits Saddlebrook to obtain subordinated loans from the Company to enable
Saddlebrook to pay its one-half of the costs of the latter two items. No
loans have been made to date.
The Company believes that the ultimate outcome of the aforementioned
lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on its financial
statements.
