AMPHENOL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

 

Note 1-Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 include the accounts of Amphenol Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”).  All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been included.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  These financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Note 2-Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-16, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets (“ASU 2009-16”).  ASU 2009-16 limits the circumstances in which transferred financial assets can be derecognized and requires enhanced disclosures regarding transfers of financial assets and a transferor’s continuing involvement with transferred financial assets.  The Company adopted ASU 2009-16 on January 1, 2010.  As a result, the Company no longer accounts for the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors under the Company’s  Receivables Securitization Facility as a sale.  In addition, transfers of receivables occurring on or after January 1, 2010 are reflected as debt issued in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow (resulting in a reduction of cash flow provided by operating activities, and increase in cash provided by financing activities, of $82,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010) and recognized as long-term debt in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Refer to the discussion of the Company’s Receivables Securitization Facility in Note 14.

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued new guidance to enhance disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements by requiring certain new disclosures and clarifying certain existing disclosures. This new guidance requires disclosure of the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 recurring fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers. In addition, the new guidance requires additional information related to activities in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements. The new guidance also expands the disclosures related to the disaggregation of assets and liabilities and information about inputs and valuation techniques. The new guidance related to Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 and the new guidance related to Level 3 fair value measurements is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and interim periods during those fiscal years. Effective January 1, 2010, the Company adopted the new guidance related to Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The Company’s adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.  Refer to the Fair Value Measurements disclosure in Note 15.

 

Note 3-Reclassifications

 

The Company has reclassified certain items in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for 2009 to be comparable with the classification for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

Note 5-Reportable Business Segments

 

The Company has two reportable business segments: (i) Interconnect Products and Assemblies and (ii) Cable Products. The Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment produces connectors and connector assemblies primarily for the communications, aerospace, industrial and automotive markets. The Cable Products segment produces coaxial and flat ribbon cable and related products primarily for the communications markets, including cable television. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those for the Company as a whole. The Company evaluates the performance of its business segments on, among other things, profit or loss from operations before interest, headquarters expense allocations, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes, amortization related to certain intangible assets and nonrecurring gains and losses.

Note 8-Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to Amphenol Corporation shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Amphenol Corporation shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common shares outstanding. A reconciliation of the basic weighted average common shares outstanding to diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 is as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Note 9-Commitments and Contingencies

 

In the course of pursuing its normal business activities, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims. Management does not expect that amounts, if any, which the Company may be required to pay by reason of such proceedings or claims will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

 

Certain operations of the Company are subject to environmental laws and regulations which govern the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, as well as the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. The Company believes that its operations are currently in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and that the costs of continuing compliance will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

Subsequent to the acquisition of Amphenol Corporation from Allied Signal Corporation (“Allied Signal”) in 1987 (Allied Signal merged with and into Honeywell International, Inc. (“Honeywell”) in December 1999), the Company and

Honeywell were named jointly and severally liable as potentially responsible parties in connection with several environmental cleanup sites.  The Company and Honeywell jointly consented to perform certain investigations and remediation and monitoring activities at two sites, and they have been jointly ordered to perform work at another site.  The costs incurred relating to these three sites are reimbursed by Honeywell based on an agreement (the “Honeywell Agreement”) entered into in connection with the acquisition in 1987.  For sites covered by the Honeywell Agreement, to the extent that conditions or circumstances occurred or existed at the time of or prior to the acquisition in 1987, Honeywell is obligated to reimburse the Company 100% of such costs.  Honeywell representatives continue to work closely with the Company in addressing the most significant environmental liabilities covered by the Honeywell Agreement.  Management does not believe that the costs associated with resolution of these or any other environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.  The environmental investigation, remediation and monitoring activities identified by the Company, including those referred to above, are covered under the Honeywell Agreement.

 

Note 10-Stock-Based Compensation

 

In May 2009, the Company adopted the 2009 Stock Purchase and Option Plan (the “2009 Option Plan”) for Key Employees of Amphenol Corporation and Subsidiaries, and the Company also maintains the 2000 Stock Purchase and Option Plan (the “2000 Option Plan”).  The 2009 Option Plan authorizes the granting of additional stock options by a committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.  As of June 30, 2010, there were no shares of common stock available for the granting of additional stock options under the 2000 Option Plan, and there were 9,945,200 shares of common stock available for the granting of additional stock options under the 2009 Option Plan. Options granted under the 2000 Option Plan and the 2009 Option Plan vest ratably over a period of five years and are exercisable over a period of ten years from the date of grant.

 

In 2004, the Company adopted the 2004 Stock Option Plan for Directors of Amphenol Corporation (the “Directors Option Plan”). The Directors Option Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors.  As of June 30, 2010, the maximum number of shares of common stock available for the granting of additional stock options under the Directors Option Plan was 140,000.  Options granted under the Directors Option Plan vest ratably over a period of three years and are exercisable over a period of ten years from the date of grant.

 

The grant-date fair value of each stock option grant under the 2000 Option Plan, the 2009 Option Plan and the Directors Option Plan is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. Expected share price volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of the stock of Amphenol Corporation and implied volatility derived from related exchange traded options. The average expected life was based on the contractual term of the option and expected employee exercise and historical post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The expected annual dividend per share was based on Amphenol Corporation’s dividend rate.

 

Stock-based compensation expense includes the estimated effects of forfeitures, which are adjusted over the requisite service period to the extent actual forfeitures differ or are expected to differ from such estimates.  Changes in estimated forfeitures are recognized in the period of change and impact the amount of expense to be recognized in future periods. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income were reduced for stock-based compensation expense by $6,172 and $4,857, respectively, and these reductions were $11,615 and $8,897, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  For the three months ended June 30, 2009, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income were reduced for stock-based compensation expense by $5,245 and $3,803, respectively, and these reductions were $10,028 and $7,442, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The expense incurred for stock-based compensation is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Note 12-Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits

 

The Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries have a defined benefit pension plan (the “U.S. Plan”) covering certain of its U.S. employees. Benefits under the U.S. Plan are generally based on years of service and compensation and are generally noncontributory. Certain foreign subsidiaries have defined benefit plans covering their employees. Certain U.S. employees not covered by the U.S. Plan are covered by defined contribution plans. The following is a summary, based on the most recent actuarial valuations of the Company’s net cost for pension benefits and other postretirement benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

The Company makes cash contributions to the U.S. Plan in accordance with minimum funding requirements and may also make voluntary cash contributions.   The Company estimates, based on current actuarial calculations, that it may make a voluntary cash contribution to the U.S. Plan in 2010 of approximately $15,000. Voluntary cash contributions to the U.S. Plan in future years will depend on a number of factors, including the investment performance of the U.S. Plan assets.

 

The Company offers various defined contribution plans for its U.S. and foreign employees. Participation in these plans is based on certain eligibility requirements.  The Company matches the majority of employee contributions to the U.S. defined contribution plans with cash contributions up to a maximum of 5% of eligible compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the total matching contributions to these U.S. defined contribution plans were approximately $1,046 and $915, respectively.

 

Note 13-Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

As of June 30, 2010, the Company has goodwill totaling $1,382,363 of which $1,308,814 is related to the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment with the remainder related to the Cable Products segment.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, goodwill increased by $13,691, primarily as a result of an acquisition made in the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment during the period offset by currency translation.

Customer relationships, proprietary technology, license agreements and trade names and other amortizable intangible assets have weighted average useful lives of approximately 9 years, 14 years, 8 years and 15 years, respectively, for an aggregate weighted average useful life of approximately 11 years.

 

Intangible assets are included in other long-term assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  The aggregate amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $3,200 and $3,400, respectively.  The aggregate amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $6,300 for both periods.  As of June 30, 2010, amortization expense estimated for each of the next five fiscal years is approximately $10,400 in 2011, $13,900 in 2012, $10,500 in 2013, and $8,500 in each of 2014 and 2015.

 

Note 14—Debt

 

Senior Notes

 

In November 2009, the Company issued $600,000 of unsecured 4.75% Senior Notes due in November, 2014 at a discount to the public of 99.813%.  Net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes were used to repay borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.  In addition, the Company incurred fees and expenses related to the Senior Notes of $4,650, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the Senior Notes as interest expense. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year.  The Company will make each interest payment to the holders of record on the immediately preceding May 1 and November 1. The Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time by paying a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.  The Senior Notes are unsecured and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. The carrying value of the Senior Notes approximated their fair value at June 30, 2010 based on recent bid prices.

 

Revolving Credit Facility

 

In conjunction with the note issuance, the Company’s existing five-year senior unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, which matures in August 2011, was amended to reduce the commitment from $1,000,000 to $752,000.  At June 30, 2010, borrowings and availability under the facility were $150,000 and $602,000, respectively.  The Company’s interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is LIBOR plus 40 basis points.  The Company also pays certain annual agency and facility fees. The Revolving Credit Facility requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants.  At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility, and the Company’s credit rating from Standard & Poor’s was BBB- and from Moody’s was Baa3.

 

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had interest rate swap agreements of $150,000 that fix the Company’s LIBOR interest rate at 4.73%, expiring in July 2010. The fair value of such agreements represents the amounts that the Company would receive or pay if the agreements were terminated.  The fair value of swaps indicated that termination of the agreements at June 30, 2010 would have resulted in a pre-tax loss of $375; such loss, net of tax of $140, was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Receivables Securitization Facility

 

A subsidiary of the Company has an agreement with a financial institution whereby the subsidiary can sell an undivided interest of up to $100,000 in a designated pool of qualified accounts receivable (the “Receivables Securitization Facility”). The Company services, administers and collects the receivables on behalf of the purchaser. The Receivables Securitization Facility includes certain covenants and provides for various events of termination and originally expired in May 2010 but has been amended and extended to May 2013.  In accordance with previous accounting guidance, the receivables sold under the Receivables Securitization Facility were accounted for off-balance sheet as a sale of receivables.  As discussed in Note 2, the Company adopted ASU 2009-16 on January 1, 2010. As a result, the Company no longer accounts for the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors under the Receivables Securitization Facility as a sale. In addition, transfers of receivables occurring on or after January 1, 2010 are reflected as debt issued in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow, and the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors at June 30, 2010 is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as long-term debt. At June 30, 2010, borrowings under the Receivables Securitization Facility were $28,000.   At December 31, 2009, $82,000 of receivables were sold and in 2009 were therefore not reflected in accounts receivable and long-term debt in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, in accordance with ASU 2009-16, fees incurred in connection with the Receivables Securitization Facility are now included in interest expense, which are included in other expense for prior periods. Such fees were $400 and $813 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and were $557 and $895 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility and Receivables Securitization Facility approximated their fair value at June 30, 2010.

The Company follows the framework within the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), which requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. These standards establish market or observable inputs as the preferred source of values. Assumptions based on hypothetical transactions are used in the absence of market inputs. The Company does not have any non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

The valuation techniques required are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

 

Level 1

 

Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

 

 

 

Level 2

 

Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

 

 

 

Level 3

 

Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

 

The Company believes that the assets or liabilities subject to such standards with fair value disclosure requirements are short-term investments that are independently valued using market observable Level 1 inputs and derivative instruments, which represent interest rate swaps that are independently valued using market observable Level 2 inputs including interest rate yield curves.  The Company’s Level 1 short-term investments consist primarily of certificates of deposit with original maturities of twelve months or less. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair values of short-term investments were $82,579 and $37,770, respectively, and were included in other current assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair values of derivative instruments were $375 and $3,664, respectively, which were included in other accrued expenses (Note 16) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact of the credit risk related to these financial assets

is immaterial.

 

The Company does not have any other significant financial or non-financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

 

Note 16- Derivative Instruments

 

The Company accounts for its derivative instruments in accordance with the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the ASC, which requires disclosure of: (1) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (2) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for in accordance with the Derivatives and Hedging topic; and (3) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.

 

The Company is exposed to certain risks related to its ongoing business operations.  The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is interest rate risk. Forward interest rate swap agreements are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s variable-rate borrowings.

 

Derivative instruments are required to be recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  In accordance with the Derivatives and Hedging topic, the Company designates forward interest rate swap agreements on variable-rate borrowings as cash flow hedges.

 

As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had the following derivative activity related to cash flow hedges:

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, a gain of $1,061 and $2,073, respectively, was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with interest rate contracts.  Approximately $3,400 was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net income during the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The Company expects to reclassify approximately $375 from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net income in the next twelve months.

 

As of June 30, 2010, the derivatives of the Company were considered effective hedges as defined in the Derivatives and Hedging topic.

 

Note 17- Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was at an effective rate of 21.3% and 23.4%, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 was at an effective rate of 27.5% and 25.8%, respectively.  The rate decrease for the second quarter of 2010 is due primarily to a $10,300 net benefit relating to a reduction in international tax expense. This reduction relates primarily to reserve adjustments from the favorable settlement of certain international tax positions and the completion of prior year audits.

 

The Company is present in over fifty taxable jurisdictions, and at any point in time has numerous audits underway at various stages of completion. With few exceptions, the Company is subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years 2006 and after.  The Company is generally not able to precisely estimate the ultimate settlement amounts or timing until the close of an audit.  The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite the Company’s belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable.  As of June 30, 2010, the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which if recognized would impact the effective tax rate, was approximately $29,447, the majority of which is included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits and closing of statute of limitations. Based on information currently available, management anticipates that over the next twelve month period, audit activity could be completed and statutes of limitations may close relating to existing unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $7,000.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

 

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

 

(dollars in millions, unless otherwise noted, except per share data)

 

 

Results of Operations

 

Quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009

 

Net sales were $884.8 and $1,655.8 in the second quarter and first six months of 2010 compared to $685.2 and $1,345.2 for the same periods in 2009, an increase of 29% and 23% in U.S. dollars and 30% and 22% in local currencies, respectively. Sales of interconnect products and assemblies (approximately 92% of sales) increased 31% in U.S. dollars and 32% in local currencies in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 ($817.1 in 2010 versus $621.4 in 2009) and 24% both in U.S. dollars and local currencies in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 ($1,520.7 in 2010 versus $1,223.4 in 2009). Sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased significantly in the telecommunications and data communications, industrial, automotive and wireless communications markets, and increased moderately in the aerospace market, as a result of a broad strengthening from a product, customer and geographic perspective.  In the first six months of 2009, sales levels were negatively impacted by weak end market demand, which resulted from the global economic crisis. Sales increases during 2010 occurred in all major geographic regions. Sales of cable products (approximately 8% of sales) increased 6% in U.S dollars and 3% in local currencies in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 ($67.7 in 2010 versus $63.7 in 2009) and 11% in U.S. dollars and 7% in local currencies in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 ($135.0 in 2010 versus $121.8 in 2009). This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in spending in international broadband markets compared to 2009, which had experienced a slowdown in spending in cable markets resulting from weak economic conditions.

 

Geographically, sales in the United States in the second quarter and six months of 2010 increased approximately 23% and 21%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009 ($308.8 and $581.7 in 2010 versus $251.6 and $481.8 in 2009).  International sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 increased approximately 33% and 24% in U.S. dollars, respectively, and 34% and 23% in local currencies, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009 ($576.0 and $1,074.1in 2010 versus $433.5 and $863.4 in 2009). The comparatively stronger U.S. dollar for the second quarter had the effect of decreasing sales by approximately $3.4 compared to foreign currency translation rates for the same period in 2009, and the comparatively weaker U.S. dollar for the first six months of 2010 had the effect of increasing  net sales by approximately $12.0 compared to foreign currency translation rates for the same period in 2009.

 

The gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales was approximately 32.7% for the second quarter and 32.5% for the first six months of 2010 compared to 31.3% for both respective periods in 2009.  The operating margins in the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment increased approximately 3.0% and 2.4% in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009, primarily as a result of higher volume levels and continued aggressive management of all elements of costs. The operating margins in the Cable Products segment decreased by approximately 2.3% and 0.5% in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009, primarily as a result of higher relative material costs and the impact of price reductions.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $113.7 and $217.8, or 12.8% and 13.2% of net sales for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to $98.7 and $194.4 for the same periods in 2009, which represented 14.4% of net sales for both periods. The increase in expense in the second quarter and first six months of 2010 is primarily attributable to increases in selling expense resulting from higher sales volume and increased research and development spending relating to new product development. Selling, general and administrative expenses includes stock-based compensation expense of $6.2 and $11.6 for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to $5.2 and $10.0 for the same periods in 2009.

 

Interest expense for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was $10.0 and $20.0, respectively, compared to $9.1 and $18.1 for the same periods in 2009. The increase in the second quarter and first six months of 2010 is primarily attributable to higher average interest rates in 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 and the inclusion of

fees of $0.4 and $0.8 in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, on the Company’s Receivables Securitization Facility in interest expense (included in other expense in 2009) in accordance with the adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-16, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets (“ASU 2009-16”), which was effective January 1, 2010.

 

The provision for income taxes for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 was at an effective rate of 21.3% and 23.4%, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the second quarter and first six months of 2009 was at an effective rate of 27.5% and 25.8%, respectively.  The rate decrease for the second quarter of 2010 is due primarily to a $10.3, or $.06 per share, net benefit relating to a reduction in international tax expense.  This reduction relates primarily to reserve adjustments from the favorable settlement of certain international tax positions and the completion of prior year audits.

 

The Company is present in over fifty taxable jurisdictions, and at any point in time has numerous audits underway at various stages of completion. With few exceptions, the Company is subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years 2006 and after.  The Company is generally not able to precisely estimate the ultimate settlement amounts or timing until the close of an audit.  The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite the Company’s belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. As of June 30, 2010, the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which if recognized would impact the effective tax rate, was approximately $29.5, the majority of which is included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits and closing of statute of limitations. Based on information currently available, management anticipates that over the next twelve month period, audit activity could be completed and statutes of limitations may close relating to existing unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $7.0.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $135.9 in the first six months of 2010.  In the 2010 period, cash flow provided by operating activities was reduced by $82.0 related to the effect of adoption of ASU 2009-16.  Cash flow provided by operating activities excluding the effect of adoption was $217.9 compared to $284.6 in the same 2009 period.  Excluding the effect of adoption, the decrease in cash flow provided by operating activities is related to an increase in components of working capital offset by an increase in net income and an increase in non-cash expenses including depreciation and stock-based compensation. The components of working capital as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow increased $78.6 in the first six months of 2010 due primarily to an increase of $122.0 in accounts receivable and increases of $45.4 and $8.0 in inventory and other current assets, respectively, which were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $89.8 and $8.5, respectively.  The components of working capital decreased $76.1 in the first six months of 2009 due primarily to decreases of $95.8 and $83.0 in accounts receivable and inventory, respectively, which were partially offset by decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $72.3 and $31.2, respectively.

 

The following describes the significant changes in the amounts as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2010. Accounts receivable increased $196.0 to $645.6, resulting from the inclusion of $82.0 of receivables previously sold under the Company’s Receivables Securitization Facility in accordance with the adoption of ASU 2009-16 and also reflecting higher sales levels, partially offset by translation resulting from the comparatively stronger U.S. dollar at June 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009 (“Translation”).  Days sales outstanding was approximately 66 days at June 30, 2010 compared to 64 days at December 31, 2009.  Inventories increased $36.8 to $498.6, primarily due to the impact of higher sales activity, partially offset by Translation.  Inventory days decreased from 80 at December 31, 2009 to 75 at June 30, 2010. Other current assets increased $52.4 to $176.9, primarily due to higher short-term investment purchases during the period.   Land and depreciable assets, net, decreased $7.7 to $325.2 primarily due to the impact of Translation as well as reflecting capital expenditures of $43.9 offset by depreciation of $42.4.  Goodwill increased $13.7 to $1,382.4, primarily as a result of an acquisition in the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment made during the period, partially offset by the impact of Translation. Accounts payable increased $85.5 to $377.6, primarily as a result of an increase in purchasing activity during the period related to second quarter sales levels. Total accrued expenses increased $8.3 to $218.9, primarily due to an increase for additional cash purchase consideration associated with an acquisition completed in 2010.

For the first six months of 2010, cash flow provided by operating activities of $135.9, net borrowings of $28.8 and proceeds from the exercise of stock options including tax benefits from stock-based payment arrangements of $8.7 were used to purchase short-term investments of $44.6, to fund capital expenditures and acquisition-related payments of $43.1 and $13.6, respectively, and to fund dividend payments and payments to shareholders of noncontrolling interests of $5.2 and $2.4, respectively, which resulted in an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $52.1. For the first six months of 2009, cash provided by operating activities of $284.6, net borrowings from the Revolving Credit Facility of $35.3 and proceeds from the exercise of stock options including tax benefits from stock-based payment arrangements of $3.7 were used to fund acquisition-related payments of $271.6, capital expenditures of $30.8, dividend payments of $7.7, purchases of short-term investments of $0.6, which resulted in an increase in cash on hand of $5.8.

 

In November 2009, the Company issued $600.0 of unsecured 4.75% Senior Notes due in November, 2014 at a discount to the public of 99.813%.  Net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes were used to repay borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility.  In addition, the Company incurred fees and expenses related to the Senior Notes of $4.7, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the Senior Notes as interest expense. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year.  The Company will make each interest payment to the holders of record on the immediately preceding May 1 and November 1. The Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at any time by paying a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.  The Senior Notes are unsecured and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. The carrying value of the Senior Notes approximated their fair value at June 30, 2010 based on recent bid prices.

 

In conjunction with the note issuance, the Company’s existing five-year senior unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, which matures in August 2011, was amended to reduce the commitment from $1,000.0 to $752.0.  At June 30, 2010, borrowings and availability under the facility were $150.0 and $602.0, respectively.  The Company’s interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is LIBOR plus 40 basis points.  The Company also pays certain annual agency and facility fees. The Revolving Credit Facility requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants.  At June 30, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility, and the Company’s credit rating from Standard & Poor’s was BBB- and from Moody’s was Baa3.

 

As of June 30, 2010, the Company had interest rate swap agreements of $150.0 that fix the Company’s LIBOR interest rate at 4.73%, expiring in July 2010.  The fair value of swaps indicated that  termination of the agreements as of June 30, 2010 would have resulted in a pre-tax loss of $0.4; such loss, net of tax of $0.1 is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

A subsidiary of the Company has an agreement with a financial institution whereby the subsidiary can sell an undivided interest of up to $100.0 in a designated pool of qualified accounts receivable (the “Receivables Securitization Facility”). The Company services, administers and collects the receivables on behalf of the purchaser. The Receivables Securitization Facility includes certain covenants and provides for various events of termination and originally expired in May 2010 but has been amended and extended to May 2013.   In accordance with previous accounting guidance, the receivables sold under the Receivables Securitization Facility were accounted for off-balance sheet as a sale of receivables.  As discussed in Note 2, the Company adopted ASU 2009-16 on January 1, 2010. As a result, the Company no longer accounts for the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors under the Receivables Securitization Facility as a sale. In addition, transfers of receivables occurring on or after January 1, 2010 are reflected as debt issued in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, and the value of the outstanding undivided interest held by investors at June 30, 2010 is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as long-term debt.  At June 30, 2010, borrowings under the Receivables Securitization Facility were $28.0.  At December 31, 2009, $82.0 of receivables were sold and in 2009 were therefore not reflected in accounts receivable and long-term debt in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, in accordance with ASU 2009-16, fees incurred in connection with the Receivables Securitization Facility are now included in interest expense, which are included in other expense for prior periods. Such fees were $0.4 and $0.8 for the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to $0.6 and $0.9 for the respective periods in 2009.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility and Receivables Securitization Facility approximated their fair value at June 30, 2010.

The Company’s primary ongoing cash requirements will be for operating and capital expenditures, product development activities, funding of pension obligations, dividends and debt service.  The Company may also use cash to fund all or part of the cost of acquisitions.  The Company pays a quarterly dividend on its common stock of $.015 per share. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company paid dividends in the amount of $2.6 and $5.2, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company declared dividends in the amount of $2.6 and $5.2, respectively.  The Company’s debt service requirements consist primarily of principal and interest on Senior Notes, the Revolving Credit Facility and its Receivables Securitization Facility.

 

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are internally generated cash flow, the Revolving Credit Facility and its Receivables Securitization Facility. In addition, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $519.3 as of June 30, 2010, the majority of which is held in non-U.S. financial institutions. The Company expects that ongoing requirements for operating and capital expenditures, product development activities, repurchases of its common stock, dividends and debt service requirements will be funded from these sources; however, the Company’s sources of liquidity could be adversely affected by, among other things, a decrease in demand for the Company’s products, a deterioration in certain of the Company’s financial ratios or a deterioration in the quality of the Company’s accounts receivable. However, management believes that the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment position, ability to generate strong cash flow from operations, availability under its Revolving Credit Facility and Receivables Securitization Facility and access to credit markets will allow it to meet its obligations for the next twelve months.

 

The Company had an open-market stock repurchase program (the “Program”) to repurchase up to 20 million shares of its common stock, which expired on January 31, 2010.  In 2010 and 2009, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock under the Program prior to its expiration.

 

The Company makes cash contributions to the U.S. Pension Plan (the “U.S. Plan”) in accordance with minimum funding requirements and may also make voluntary cash contributions. The Company estimates, based on current actuarial calculations, that it may make a voluntary cash contribution to the U.S. Plan in 2010 of approximately $15.0. Voluntary cash contributions to the U.S. Plan in future years will depend on a number of factors, including the investment performance of the U.S. Plan assets.

 

Environmental Matters

 

Subsequent to the acquisition of Amphenol Corporation from Allied Signal Corporation (“Allied Signal”) in 1987 (Allied Signal merged with and into Honeywell International, Inc. (“Honeywell”) in December 1999), the Company and Honeywell were named jointly and severally liable as potentially responsible parties in connection with several environmental cleanup sites.  The Company and Honeywell jointly consented to perform certain investigations and remediation and monitoring activities at two sites, and they have been jointly ordered to perform work at another site.  The costs incurred relating to these three sites are reimbursed by Honeywell based on an agreement (the “Honeywell Agreement”) entered into in connection with the acquisition in 1987.  For sites covered by the Honeywell Agreement, to the extent that conditions or circumstances occurred or existed at the time of or prior to the acquisition in 1987, Honeywell is obligated to reimburse the Company 100% of such costs.  Honeywell representatives continue to work closely with the Company in addressing the most significant environmental liabilities covered by the Honeywell Agreement.  Management does not believe that the costs associated with resolution of these or any other environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.  The environmental investigation, remediation and monitoring activities identified by the Company, including those referred to above, are covered under the Honeywell Agreement.

 

Safe Harbor Statement

 

Statements in this report that are not historical are “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other related federal securities laws, and should be considered subject to the many uncertainties and risks that exist in the Company’s operations and business environment. These uncertainties and risks, which include, among other things, economic and currency conditions, market demand and pricing and competitive and cost factors, are set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s

2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated. The Company does not undertake to update such forward-looking statements.

 

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

The Company, in the normal course of doing business, is exposed to the risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.  There has been no material change in the Company’s assessment of its sensitivity to foreign currency exchange rate risk since its presentation set forth, in Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in its 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company had interest rate swap agreements of $150.0 that fix the Company’s LIBOR interest rate at 4.73%, expiring in July 2010.  As of June 30, 2010, the Company’s average LIBOR rate was 4.73%.  A 10% change in the LIBOR interest rate at June 30, 2010 would have no material effect on interest expense. The Company does not expect changes in interest rates to have a material effect on income or cash flows in 2010, although there can be no assurances that interest rates will not significantly change.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the period covered by this report. Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during its most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.            Legal Proceedings

 

The Company and its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in several legal actions in which various amounts are claimed arising from normal business activities. Although the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to such matters cannot be precisely determined, in the opinion of management, such matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

Item 1A.         Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors as disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Item 2.            Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

Repurchase of Equity Securities

 

The Company had an open-market stock repurchase program (the “Program”) to repurchase up to 20 million shares of its common stock, which expired on January 31, 2010.  In 2010 and 2009, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock under the Program prior to its expiration.
