NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

TECHNE Corporation and Subsidiaries

(unaudited)

A. Basis of Presentation:

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Techne Corporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

A summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Company is detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2013. The Company follows these policies in preparation of the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2013.

B. Acquisition

On July 22, 2013, the Company’s R&D Systems subsidiary acquired for cash all of the outstanding shares of Bionostics Holdings, Ltd. (Bionostics) and its U.S. operating subsidiary, Bionostics, Inc. Bionostics is a global leader in the development, manufacture and distribution of control solutions that verify the proper operation of in-vitro diagnostic devices primarily utilized in point of care blood glucose and blood gas testing. Bionostics is included in the Company’s Clinical Controls segment.

In connection with the Bionostics acquisition, the Company recorded $14.4 million of developed technology intangible assets that have an estimated useful life of 9 years, $2.7 million of trade name intangible assets that have an estimated useful life of 5 years, $2.4 million related to non-compete agreements that have an estimated useful life of 3 years, and $41.0 million related to customer relationships that have an estimated useful life of 14 years. The intangible asset amortization is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The goodwill recorded as a result of the Bionostics acquisition represents the strategic benefits of growing the Company’s product portfolio and the expected revenue growth from increased market penetration from future products and customers. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Transaction costs of $532,000 and $607,000 were included in the Company’s selling, general and administrative costs during the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

The aggregate purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminarily estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The preliminary estimate of the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net tangible assets acquired was allocated to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as a result of the Bionostics acquisition (in thousands):

   $ 103,149   
  

 

 

 

Tangible assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, were stated at fair value at the date of acquisition based on management’s assessment. The purchase price allocated to developed technology, trade names, non-compete agreements and customer relationships was based on management’s forecasted cash inflows and outflows and using a relief-from-royalty and a multi-period excess earnings method to calculate the fair value of assets purchased. The developed technology is being amortized with the expense reflected in cost of goods sold in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. Amortization expense related to trade names, the non-compete agreement and customer relationships is reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. The deferred income tax liability represents the estimated future impact of adjustments for the cost to be recognized upon the sale of acquired inventory that was written up to fair value and intangible asset amortization, both of which are not deductible for income tax purposes.

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, include Bionostics net sales of $8.0 million and $14.2 million, respectively, and net income of $292,000 and $276,000, respectively. Included in Bionostics results for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 were amortization of intangibles of $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively and costs recognized on the sales of acquired inventory of $458,000 and $1.1 million, respectively.

C. Available-For-Sale Investments:

The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale investments at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 were $251 million and $302 million, respectively. The amortized cost basis of the Company’s available-for-sale investments at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 were $243 million and $241 million, respectively.

Included in the Company’s available-for-sale securities is an investment in the common stock and warrants of ChemoCentryx (CCXI). The fair value of the Company’s investment was $36.7 million and $89.6 million at December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated net sales increased 11.9% and 13.0% for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively, compared to the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2012. Consolidated net earnings decreased 1.2% and increased 2.8% for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively, compared to the same prior-year periods. Consolidated net sales for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 were affected by the Bionostics acquisition, which closed in July 2013, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the same prior-year periods. Included in consolidated net sales for the quarter and six months ended December 31 were $8.0 million and $14.2 million of acquisition-related net sales. A weaker U.S. dollar as compared to foreign currencies increased sales by $643,000 and $1.3 million in the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively, from the comparable prior-year periods.

Net Sales

Consolidated organic net sales, excluding the impact of the acquisition and the effect of the change from the prior year in exchange rates used to convert sales in foreign currencies (primarily British pound sterling, euros and Chinese yuan) into U.S. dollars, were as follows (in thousands):

The Clinical Controls segment net sales increased $8.0 million and $15.0 million for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively, compared to the same prior-year periods. The increase in net sales for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 was affected by the acquisition of Bionostics in July 2013. Excluding Bionostic sales, Clinical Controls segment sales growth was $29,000 (0.5%) and $765,000 (7.0%) for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively. This increase was a result of the timing of shipments at the beginning and end of the first fiscal quarter and volume increases.

Gross Margins

Fluctuations in gross margins, as a percentage of net sales, are typically the result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in product mix and seasonality. Such fluctuations are normal and expected to continue in future periods.

Consolidated gross margins for the quarters and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were negatively impacted as a result of purchase accounting related to inventory and intangible assets acquired in the current and prior fiscal years. Under purchase accounting, inventory is valued at fair value less expected selling and marketing costs, resulting in reduced margins in future periods as the inventory is sold.

A reconciliation of the reported consolidated gross margin percentages, adjusted for acquired inventory sold and intangible amortization included in cost of sales, is as follows:

 

     Quarter Ended     Six Months Ended  
     December 31,     December 31,  
     2013     2012     2013     2012

     2013     2012     2013     2012

     34.6     49.4     37.1     49.0

Consolidated

     69.7     73.6     70.5     73.8

The Biotechnology segment gross margin percentages for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 increased from the same prior-year periods primarily due to a decline in the costs recognized upon the sale of inventory acquired in fiscal 2011 which was written-up to fair value. The Clinical Controls segment gross margin percentages for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 decreased from the comparable prior-year period mainly as a result of intangible amortization and cost recognized upon the sale of inventory acquired in July 2013.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.0 million (36.2%) and $7.7 million (36.0%) for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively, from the same prior-year periods. The increase for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 was mainly a result of the Bionostics acquisition, including $1.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of selling, general and administrative expense by Bionostics, and increases of $1.1 million and $1.5 million of intangible amortization for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses also included a $541,000 and $807,000 increase in stock compensation expense for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively. The six months ended December 31, 2013 also included $532,000 of acquisition related professional fees. The remainder of the increase in selling, general and administrative expense was due primarily to increased executive compensation and additional sales staff added since the first half of fiscal 2013.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 increased $520,000 (7.0%) and $770,000 (5.2%) from the same prior-year periods. Included in research and development expenses for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 were $192,000 and $386,000, respectively, of expenses by Bionostics. The remainder of the increase in research and development expense for the quarter and six months was due to personnel and supply costs associated with the continuous development and release of new high-quality biotechnology products. The Company expects research and development expenses to continue to increase in future periods as a result of its ongoing product development program.

Income Taxes

Income taxes for both the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 were provided at rates of 30.8% of consolidated earnings before income taxes compared to 32.3% for both the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily the result of decreased tax rates in the U.K. and the increased percentage of pretax income from foreign operations, which are subject to lower income tax rates than U.S. operations. The Company expects the income tax rate for the remainder of fiscal 2014 to range from 30% to 32%.

Forward-looking statements include those regarding the Company’s expectations as to the effect of changes to accounting policies, the amount of capital expenditures for the remainder of the fiscal year, the source of funding for capital expenditure requirements, the sufficiency of currently available funds for meeting the Company’s needs, the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and expectations regarding gross margin fluctuations, increasing research and development expenses, increasing selling, general and administrative expenses and income tax rates. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that may affect the actual results of operations. The following important factors, among others, have affected and, in the future, could affect the Company’s actual results: the introduction and acceptance of new products, general national and international economic conditions, increased competition, the reliance on internal manufacturing and related operations, the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations, economic instability in Eurozone countries, the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel, the impact of governmental regulation, maintenance of intellectual property rights, credit risk and fluctuation in the market value of the Company’s investment portfolio, unseen delays and expenses related to facility improvements, and the success of financing efforts by companies in which the Company has invested. For additional information concerning such factors, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

At December 31, 2013, the Company had a portfolio of fixed income debt securities, excluding those classified as cash and cash equivalents, of $197 million. These securities, like all fixed income instruments, are subject to interest rate risk and will decline in value if market interest rates increase. As the Company’s fixed income securities are classified as available-for-sale, no gains or losses are recognized by the Company in its consolidated statements of earnings due to changes in interest rates unless such securities are sold prior to maturity. The Company generally holds its fixed income securities until maturity and, historically, has not recorded any material gains or losses on any sale prior to maturity.

At December 31, 2013, the Company held an investment in the common stock of CCXI. The investment was included in short-term available-for-sale investments at its fair value of $36.7 million. At December 31, 2013, the potential loss in fair value due to a 10% decrease in the market value of CCXI was $3.7 million.

The Company operates internationally, and thus is subject to potentially adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. For the six months ended December 31, 2013, approximately 31% of consolidated net sales were made in foreign currencies, including 14% in euros, 6% in British pound sterling, 5% in Chinese yuan and the remaining 6% in other European currencies. As a result, the Company is exposed to market risk mainly from foreign exchange rate fluctuations of the euro, British pound sterling and the Chinese yuan as compared to the U.S. dollar as the financial position and operating results of the Company’s foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation.

Month-end average exchange rates between the British pound sterling, euro and Chinese yuan and the U.S. dollar, which have not been weighted for actual sales volume in the applicable months in the periods, were as follows:

 

     Quarter Ended
December 31,
     Six Months Ended

     2013      2012      2013      2012

The Company’s exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations also arises from trade receivables and intercompany payables denominated in one currency in the financial statements, but receivable or payable in another currency. At December 31, 2013, the Company had the following trade receivable and intercompany payables denominated in one currency but receivable or payable in another currency (in thousands):

 

     Denominated
Currency
     U.S. Dollar
Equivalent
 

Accounts receivable in:

     

Euros

   £ 1,035       $ 1,676   

Other European currencies

   £ 842       $ 1,362   

Intercompany payable in:

     

Euros

   £ 117       $ 189   

U.S. dollars

   £ 2,299       $ 3,721   

U.S. dollars

   yuan  10,429       $ 1,711   

All of the above balances are revolving in nature and are not deemed to be long-term balances. The Company does not enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce its exposure to foreign currency rate changes on forecasted intercompany foreign currency denominated balance sheet positions. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in “Other non-operating expense” in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. The effect of translating net assets of foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as part of “Accumulated other comprehensive income.”

The effects of a hypothetical simultaneous 10% appreciation in the U.S. dollar from December 31, 2013 levels against the euro, British pound sterling and Chinese yuan are as follows (in thousands):

 

Decrease in translation of 2014 earnings into U.S. dollars (annualized)

   $ 2,615   

Decrease in translation of net assets of foreign subsidiaries

     16,021   

Additional transaction losses

     543   

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the Exchange Act)).

Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the previously identified material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, the nature of which is summarized below.

Previously Reported Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The Company has identified a material weakness in the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of general IT controls (GITCs) intended to ensure that access to financial applications and data was adequately restricted to appropriate personnel, and that program changes to particular financial applications are documented, tested, and moved into the production environment only by individuals separate from the development function. As a result, certain classes of transactions subject to controls that rely upon information generated by the Company’s IT systems that are subject to the operation of the GITCs, including the completeness, existence, and accuracy of revenue and accounts receivable, allow for a reasonable possibility that a misstatement is not adequately prevented or detected through the operation of management’s system of internal control over financial reporting.

Remediation Efforts in Fiscal 2014

Promptly following the identification of the material weakness as described above, management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, began taking steps to remediate the material weakness.

During the six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company enhanced its internal testing approach, including performing additional procedures and expanding the documentation for select controls, to ensure the completeness, existence and accuracy of system generated information used to support the operation of the controls. The Company anticipates that the enhanced testing and documentation, in addition to possible expansion of human resources to improve segregation of duties, will be adequate to remediate the material weakness in future quarters, and that testing to confirm elimination of the material weakness will be complete by the end of the 2014 fiscal year.

In light of the material weakness identified above, the Company performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and accurately reflect its financial position and results of operation as of and for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013. As a result, notwithstanding the material weakness as described above, management concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except for the remediation steps to address the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above.
