None of these arrangements contain pre-payment penalties. The total outstanding on these credit facilities was $0 at both March 31, 2001 and December 30, 2000. Certain of these debt instruments are subject to covenants including consolidated net working capital not less than $2,000,000 and a current ratio not less than 1.2:1.0 at all times during the term of the loan. 5. SEGMENT REPORTING The Company has adopted Statement of Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"). This approach designates the internal organization that is used by management for making operational decisions and addressing performance as the source of determining the Company's reportable segments. Management bases its financial decisions by the geographical location of its operations. The individual subsidiaries comprising the Company operate predominantly in a single industry as manufacturers and distributors of hydraulic components. The subsidiaries are multinational with operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Korea. In computing operating profit for the foreign subsidiaries, no allocations of general corporate expenses have been made. 8 Identifiable assets of the foreign subsidiaries are those assets related to the operation of those companies. United States assets consist of all other operating assets of the Company. Segment information is as follows:
United United States Korea Germany Kingdom Elimination Consolidated THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 Sales to unaffiliated customers $12,644 $1,128 $1,911 $3,296 -- $18,979 Intercompany sales 3,625 -- -- 433 (4,058) -- Operating profit 1,380 3 24 488 (36) 1,859 Depreciation and amortization 1,077 56 77 199 -- 1,409 Capital expenditures 340 26 518 129 -- 1,013 THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 1, 2000 Sales to unaffiliated $13,723 $1,447 $1,533 $3,366 -- $20,069 Intercompany sales 2,825 -- 8 528 (3,361) -- Operating profit 940 140 55 406 (102) 1,439 Depreciation and amortization 1,049 33 63 233 -- 1,378 Capital expenditures 1,113 169 84 62 -- 1,428
Operating profit is total sales and other operating income less operating expenses. In computing segment operating profit, interest expense and net miscellaneous income (expense) have not been deducted (added). Included in U.S. sales to unaffiliated customers were export sales, principally to Canada and Asia, of $1,547 and $1,502 during the three months ended March 31, 2001, and April 1, 2000, respectively. 9 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW Sun Hydraulics Corporation is a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance screw-in hydraulic cartridge valves and manifolds, which control force, speed and motion as integral components in fluid power systems. The Company sells its products globally, primarily though independent distributors. Approximately 66% of product sales are used by the mobile market, characterized by applications where the equipment is not fixed in place, the operating environment is often unpredictable, and duty cycles are generally moderate to low. The remaining 34% of sales are used by industrial markets, which are characterized by equipment that is fixed in place, typically in a controlled environment, with higher pressures and duty cycles. The Company sells to both markets with a single product line. In 2000 the Company generated approximately 40% of its net sales outside of the United States. Orders for the three months ended March 31, 2001, were $19.8 million. This was a $1.9 million, or 8.8%, decrease from the three months ended April 1, 2000, and a $2.9 million, or 17.2%, increase compared to the previous quarter ended December 30, 2000. The 17.2% increase from the previous quarter included an 11.6% increase in domestic orders and a 24.6% increase in international orders. The Company's order rates continued to outperform the hydraulics industry as the United States National Fluid Power Association's preliminary report indicates total orders for hydraulics products for the first quarter of 2001 increased 2.4% from the previous quarter. The Company's net sales increased $1.5 million, or 8.2%, to $19.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, compared to net sales of $17.5 for the quarter ended December 30, 2000. The 8.2% increase included a 4.0% increase in domestic sales and a 14.2% increase in international sales. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $1.0 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 20.7%, compared to the same period last year despite a net sales decrease of 6.2%. Compared to the quarter ended December 30, 2000, net income increased 57.0%, or $0.4 million. Outlook Orders for the first quarter of 2001 were up 17.0% over the last quarter of 2000; however, the order rates for the months of March and April indicate that the net sales for the second quarter ending June 30, 2001, are likely to decrease 10 to 15%. Management believes the decrease in orders is the result of a broad based decline in business throughout the United States manufacturing sector. The Company plans to break ground in the third quarter of this year to build an addition to its plant in the United Kingdom that will double the manufacturing space. The project is expected to cost 10 $2.2 million. This investment is key to the growth of the Company in Europe and will improve productivity in the United Kingdom operation. COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND APRIL 1, 2000 Net sales decreased $1.3 million, or 6.2%, to $19.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to the quarter ended April 1, 2000. This decrease was due to a general slowdown in the United States manufacturing sector. Gross profit increased $0.2 million, or 4.6%, to $5.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to the quarter ended April 1, 2000. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 28.0% compared to 25.1% for the first quarter of 2000. The 2.9% increase in gross profit as a percent of net sales was primarily due to a decrease in prime manufacturing costs, particularly the cost of purchased parts. Selling, engineering and administrative expenses decreased 5.1%, or $0.2 million, to $3.5 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to $3.6 million in the quarter ended April 1, 2000. This decrease is due to lower spending in many expense categories in the United States operation offset by moderate increases in the foreign operations. The provision for income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, was 34.8% of pretax income, compared to 28.7% of pretax income for the quarter ended April 1, 2000. This increase is due to Korean tax provision requirements that were not previously believed to be applicable. In both years, tax savings were realized in the United States from the Sun Hydraulics Foreign Sales Corporation. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, the Company's primary source of capital has been cash generated from operations, although fluctuations in working capital requirements have been met through borrowings under revolving lines of credit. The Company's principal uses of cash have been to pay operating expenses, make capital expenditures, pay dividends to shareholders and service debt. Cash from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001, was $1.6 million. This compares with $1.2 million for the three months ended April 1, 2000. The $0.4 million increase was due to a $0.2 million increase in net income and $0.2 million increase in working capital. Days sales outstanding was 36 and 33 at March 31, 2001, and April 1, 2000, respectively. Inventory turns were 6.1 and 7.4 at March 31, 2001, and April 1, 2000, respectively. Capital expenditures, consisting primarily of purchases of machinery and equipment, were $1.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, compared to $1.4 million for the quarter ended April 1, 2000. The Company plans to break ground in the third quarter of this year to build an addition to its plant in the United Kingdom that will double the manufacturing space. The project is expected to cost $2.2 million. 11 The Company believes that cash generated from operations and its borrowing availability under its revolving lines of credit will be sufficient to satisfy its operating expenses and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.04 per share to shareholders of record on March 31, 2001, which was paid on April 15, 2001. SEASONALITY AND INFLATION The Company generally has experienced reduced activity during the fourth quarter of the year, largely as a result of fewer working days due to holiday shutdowns. The Company does not believe that inflation had a material effect on its operations for the periods ended March 31, 2001, and April 1, 2000. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's business will not be affected by inflation in the future. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on borrowed funds, which could affect its results of operations and financial condition. At March 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $5.0 million in variable-rate debt outstanding and, as such, the market risk is immaterial based upon a 10% increase or decrease in interest rates. The Company manages this risk by selecting debt financing that is based on the prime rate or Treasury securities rate in the U.S., or the equivalent rate in the U.K., Germany, and Korea, respectively. 12 FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION Certain oral statements made by management from time to time and certain statements contained herein that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, because such statements involve risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, including those in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations, estimates or projections of the Company, its Directors or its Officers about the Company and the industry in which it operates, and assumptions made by management, and include among other items, (i) the Company's strategies regarding growth, including its intention to develop new products; (ii) the Company's financing plans; (iii) trends affecting the Company's financial condition or results of operations; (iv) the Company's ability to continue to control costs and to meet its liquidity and other financing needs; (v) the declaration and payment of dividends; and (vi) the Company's ability to respond to changes in customer demand domestically and internationally, including as a result of standardization. Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that the anticipated results will occur. Important factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, among other items, (i) the economic cyclicality of the capital goods industry in general and the hydraulic valve and manifold industry in particular, which directly affect customer orders, lead times and sales volume; (ii) conditions in the capital markets, including the interest rate environment and the availability of capital; (iii) changes in the competitive marketplace that could affect the Company's revenue and/or cost bases, such as increased competition, lack of qualified engineering, marketing, management or other personnel, and increased labor and raw materials costs; (iv) changes in technology or customer requirements, such as standardization of the cavity into which screw-in cartridge valves must fit, which could render the Company's products or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete; (v) new product introductions, product sales mix and the geographic mix of sales nationally and internationally; and (vi) changes relating to the Company's international sales, including changes in regulatory requirements or tariffs, trade or currency restrictions, fluctuations in exchange rates, and tax and collection issues. Further information relating to factors that could cause actual results to differ from those anticipated is included but not limited to information under the headings "Business" (including under the subheading "Business Risk Factors") in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2000, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations" in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
