NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 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 have been included.
Operating results for the thirteen week period ended March 31, 1996, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ended December 29, 1996. The Balance Sheet at December 31, 1995, has been
derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. For additional information, refer
to financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.
NOTE 2--INCOME TAXES
Prior to its initial public offering completed on October 16, 1995, the Company
had elected to be treated for Federal and certain state income tax purposes as
an S corporation. As a result, earnings of the Company have been taxed directly
to the shareholders of the Company, rather than to the Company. The pro forma
income data in the Statements of Income provides information as if the Company
had been treated as a C corporation for income tax purposes for the quarter
ended April 2, 1995.
NOTE 3--RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In February, 1996, Theodore G. Schwartz, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, and two Schwartz Family Trusts sold 2,875,000 shares of the
Company's Common Shares reducing the family's ownership to 65%. Costs
associated with the Schwartz family's secondary offering of Common Shares
amounting to approximately $350,000 have been incurred and expensed by the
Company and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.
NOTE 4--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 9, 1996, the Company announced a two-for-one stock split in the form of
a dividend payable on May 15, 1996, to holders of Common Shares of record on
April 26, 1996. Shareholders' equity and per share data have been retroactively
adjusted to reflect the stock split.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
APAC provides telephone-based sales, marketing and customer management services.
The Company has two primary service offerings. Sales Solutions provides
outbound sales support to consumers and businesses, database analysis and
management, market research, targeted marketing plan development and
customer lead generation, acquisition and retention. Service Solutions
provides inbound customer service, direct mail response, "help" line support
and catalog order processing.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net revenue in the first quarter of 1996 increased $30.3 million or 169.5% over
the first quarter of 1995. Approximately fifty percent of the revenue growth
occurred within the Service Solutions group relating to the commencement of a
four year contract to operate and manage four United Parcel Services' (UPS)
customer service facilities. The remaining increase was due to higher Sales
Solutions call volume from existing clients and the addition of new clients
from within the telecommunications industry.
Cost of services as a percentage of net revenue increased to 71.4% in the first
quarter of 1996 compared to 64.3% a year earlier. The increase in cost of
service reflects the shift in service mix to UPS, which has a lower gross margin
compared to the Company's other service offerings. Another factor contributing
to higher cost of services was recruiting, training and facility costs incurred
in advance of full-scale operations on the start up of eleven new Sales
Solutions calling centers during the first quarter of 1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 1996
increased $2.6 million or 71.2% over the first quarter of 1995. Approximately
sixty-five percent of the growth was due to investments in systems and
management to support the Company's increased revenue base, with the balance
due primarily to expenses associated with the new UPS business and the
secondary offering of the Company's stock. As a percentage of revenue,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 12.9% in the first
quarter of 1996 compared to 20.2% a year earlier as revenue grew at a faster
rate than increases in selling general and administrative expenses.
The $470,000 change from interest expense in the first quarter of 1995 to
interest income in the first quarter of 1996 reflects income earned on
short-term investments in 1996 and expense eliminated as a result of debt
retired in 1995 with cash raised in the initial public offering of the
Company's stock in October, 1995.
The $3.1 million increase in the provision for income taxes resulted from a
change in the Company's tax status from an S corporation to a C corporation in
connection with the initial public offering of the Company's stock. Prior to
the initial public offering, the Company included its income and expenses with
those of its shareholders for Federal and certain state income tax purposes (an
S corporation election). The Company's effective tax rate of 39.5% for the
first quarter of 1996 and pro forma tax rate of 39.2% for the first quarter of
1995 reflect Federal taxes at the statutory rate of 35% plus state taxes net of
Federal benefit and state job creation credits.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had $16.7 million in cash and short-term investments at March 31,
1996. The Company also has a $10.0 million revolving credit agreement and a
$21.2 million line of credit that can be used to finance capital expenditures.
There was no borrowing under either of these credit lines in the first quarter
of 1996.
During the first quarter of 1996 operations used $1.9 million in cash compared
to $4.8 million in cash provided by operations in the first quarter of 1995.
Despite a $2.2 million or 87% increase in quarterly net income for 1996 as
compared to a year earlier, cash provided by operations decreased by $6.7
million due to higher accounts receivable balances generated through larger
sales volumes and extended billing cycles with several new clients. Capital
expenditures for 1996 amounted to $11.3 million. Funds for operating needs and
capital to add approximately 1,250 workstations in eleven new calling centers
opened in the first quarter were provided by use of cash and cash equivalent
balances of $4.2 million and proceeds from the sale of $9.3 million in short-
term investments. The Company expects that cash generated by future operations
and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet normal operating
needs as well as fund business growth for the balance of 1996.
