The accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements are an integral part of these statements. F-5 GILLETT HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 1996 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Gillett Holdings, Inc. ("GHI"), is organized as a holding company and operates through various subsidiaries. GHI and its subsidiaries (the "Company") are in a single business, the ownership and operation of ski resorts. Vail Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Vail Associates") operate one of the world's largest skiing facilities on Vail Mountain, Beaver Creek Mountain and Arrowhead Mountain in Colorado and have related real estate operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of the Company, all adjustments necessary to present fairly its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. Results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Cash and Cash Equivalents--The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Inventories--Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, or market. Property, Plant and Equipment--Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives: Buildings and terminals................................................. 40 Land improvements....................................................... 40 Ski lifts............................................................... 15 Ski trails.............................................................. 20 Machinery, equipment, furniture and fixtures............................ 3-12 Automobiles and trucks.................................................. 3-5
The Company has Term Special Use Permits which allow it to operate ski lifts, trails, and related activities on United States Forest Service land. These permits expire in 2031 for Vail Mountain and 2006 for Beaver Creek Mountain. Deferred Financing Costs--Costs incurred with the issuance of debt securities are included in deferred charges and other assets, net of accumulated amortization. Amortization is charged to income over the respective original lives of the applicable long-term debt and is included as an other expense. Intangible Assets--During the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1995 in previously issued financial statements, the Company amortized Reorganization Value in Excess of Amounts Allocable to Indentifiable Assets ("Excess Reorganization Value") on a straight line basis over 40 years. The Company believes that it was justified in using a 40 year amortization period under generally accepted accounting principles. The Securities and Exchange Commission, however, believes that Excess Reorganization Value should be amortized over a period of no more than 20 years. The Company has agreed to restate the previously issued financial statements for these periods to effect a 20 year amortization period for Excess Reorganization Value rather than a 40 year amortization period. The effect of this restatement was to increase amortization of intangible assets in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1995 by $262,000 and $524,000, respectively, and to reduce net income by $262,000 and $524,000, respectively. Net income per common share decreased by $.02 and $.04, respectively as a result of this restatement. The cost of other intangible assets with determinable lives is charged to operations based on their respective economic lives, which range from 7 to 40 years, using the straight line method. F-6 GILLETT HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--(CONTINUED) Revenue Recognition--Revenues are recognized as services are performed with the exception of real estate sales which are accounted for as follows: A. Profit is not recognized until title has been transferred. B. Profit is deferred if the receivable is subject to subordination until such time as all costs have been recovered. C. Until the initial down payment and subsequent collection of principal and interest are by contract substantial, cash received from the buyer is reported as a deposit on the contract. The Company capitalizes as land held for sale the original acquisition cost, direct construction and development costs, property taxes, interest accrued on costs related to land under development, and other related costs (engineering, surveying, marketing, landscaping, etc.) until the property reaches its intended use. The cost of sales for individual parcels of real estate or condominium units within a project is determined using the relative sales value method. Selling expenses are charged against income in the period incurred. Cost of Products Sold--The cost of products sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations includes the cost of real estate sold as well as the cost of products sold related to Vail Associates' food and retail operations. Common Stock--The Company's certificate of incorporation requires that if shares of Class 1 Common Stock are transferred by a holder to a person other than an affiliate of the holder, the shares transferred will be converted to an equal number of shares of Class 2 Common Stock. The certificate of incorporation also allows a holder of Class 1 Common Stock to voluntarily convert his shares of Class 1 Common Stock to an equal number of shares of Class 2 Common Stock. Through March 31, 1996, 989,491 shares of Class 1 Common Stock have been converted to shares of Class 2 Common Stock. Earnings (loss) per common share--Earnings (loss) per common share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period after consideration of the dilutive effect of stock grants, warrants and options (see Note 7). Reclassifications--Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. 3. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt as of March 31 , 1996 and September 30, 1995 is summarized as follows (in thousands):
MARCH 31, SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 1995 --------- ------------- Senior Subordinated Notes, due June 30, 2002(a)..... $ 62,647 $117,147 Industrial Development Bonds(b)................. 37,903 37,903 Vail credit facility(c)... 4,000 36,000 Other..................... 232 263 -------- -------- 104,782 191,313 Less--current maturities............. 63 63 -------- -------- $104,719 $191,250 ======== ========
F-7 GILLETT HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) 3. LONG-TERM DEBT--(CONTINUED) - -------- (a) The Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured, bear interest at 12 1/4% and mature on June 30, 2002. The Company, pursuant to the covenants in the Senior Subordinated Indenture (the "Indenture"), may not incur additional indebtedness unless expressly permitted in the Indenture; make certain Restricted Payments (as defined in the Indenture); sell assets of the Company or its subsidiaries unless within the guidelines set forth in the Indenture; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; or make certain acquisitions in excess of specific limitations. (b) The Industrial Development Bonds mature in August 2009 with interest payable semiannually at 8%. (c) The Company refinanced its previous credit facility on March 31, 1995. The new credit facility (the "Credit Facility") provides for total availability of $135,000,000, which is comprised of a $105,000,000 Revolver ("Facility A") and a $30,000,000 Revolver ("Facility B"). Facility A requires that no more than $75,000,000 be outstanding for a 30 day period each year. Due to the long term nature of Facility A, all amounts outstanding are considered to be noncurrent liabilities. The maximum borrowings available under Facility A will be reduced by $25,000,000 on March 31, 1999 with all outstanding principal due on March 31, 2000. No borrowings under Facility B are permitted unless the maximum borrowings under Facility A are outstanding. The maximum borrowings available under Facility B will be reduced by $10,000,000 on March 31, 1997 and further reduced by an additional $10,000,000 on March 31, 1998 with all outstanding principal due on March 31, 1999. Interest on outstanding advances under the Credit Facility is payable monthly or quarterly at rates based upon either LIBOR plus a margin (ranging from .75% to 1.75%) or prime plus a margin (up to .25%). These rates fluctuate depending on the ratio of funded debt to resort cash flow as defined in the Credit Facility. The Company is also required to pay an unused commitment fee ranging from .25% to .375%. The Credit Facility is available for the seasonal working capital needs of the Company and for capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, including the issuance of up to $50,000,000 of letters of credit ("LOC"). Of the $50,000,000 of LOC availability, approximately $42,000,000 will ultimately be used to credit enhance the Smith Creek Metropolitan District revenue bonds (see Note 6). The Company currently has $27,581,000 of LOC's outstanding related to this credit enhancement and is using approximately $6,097,000 of LOC's for other Vail Associates corporate purposes. Fees for LOC's outstanding are payable when LOC's are issued at rates ranging from .875% to 1.875%. Vail Associates is permitted under the Credit Facility to make 1) quarterly dividend payments to the Company in the amount of net cash proceeds from real estate sales, 2) annual dividend payments (payable in March and April each year) based upon annual excess cash flow excluding cash proceeds from real estate sales, and 3) management fee payments not to exceed $3,000,000 per year. The Credit Facility and the Industrial Development Bonds (see (b) above) are secured by the stock of the subsidiaries of Vail Associates, Inc. and the Term Special Use Permits granted by the United States Forest Service (see Note 2). 4. INCOME TAXES The Company utilizes the liability method to account for income taxes as required by Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return along with its wholly owned subsidiaries. At October 8, 1992 (the "Effective Date"), the Company had net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $575 million ("Effective Date NOLs"). Due to discharge of indebtedness income relating to the restructuring, these NOLs were reduced by $214 million. Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), due to the change in control of the Company as described in Note 1, the Company will be limited in its use of these NOLs which existed on the Effective Date. The Company will be able to use Effective Date NOLs to the extent of approximately $8 million per year in each of the 15 years subsequent to the Effective Date. In F-8 GILLETT HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED) 4. INCOME TAXES--(CONTINUED) addition, the Company will be able to use Effective Date NOLs to the extent that built-in gains (excess of fair market value over tax basis at October 8, 1992) are recognized on asset sales which occur through October 8, 1997. Accordingly, at October 8, 1992 the financial statements reflected the benefit of the expected use of $120 million of Effective Date NOLs. As the likelihood is low that the Company will be able to recognize a significant portion of the remaining Effective Date NOLs, the accompanying financial statements do not recognize any benefits related to the remaining Effective Date NOLs, except to the extent realized. To the extent any additional tax benefits from these Effective Date NOLs are recognized, there will be a reduction to the reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets recorded at October 8, 1992. During the years ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, the Company recognized the benefit of Effective Date tax attributes which were recorded as reductions to the reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets of $278,000 and $2,764,000, respectively. At September 30, 1995, the Company has total federal NOL carryforwards of approximately $380 million for income tax purposes that expire in years 2002 through 2008, $65 million of which are not subject to any Section 382 limitation. The Company has provided for income taxes in the accompanying statements of operations at the estimated effective income tax rates for fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. 5. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Under the Company's debt instruments, the Company is permitted to pay up to $500,000 per year for management services and related expenses to an affiliate of the majority holder of the Company's common stock. This arrangement was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in 1993. The Company recognized $125,000 and $250,000 of corporate expenses related to this arrangement during each of the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Vail Associates has effective control of the Beaver Creek Resort Company (Resort Company), a non-profit entity formed for the benefit of property owners in Beaver Creek. Vail Associates has agreed to relinquish its right to appoint certain directors effective December 31, 1995, and subsequent to that date may no longer have effective control of the Resort Company. Vail Associates has a management agreement with the Resort Company, renewable for one-year periods, to provide management services on a fixed fee basis without any profit. In accordance with a cash flow agreement, Vail Associates will fund the operating losses of the Resort Company, including debt service, until such time as the Resort Company's assessments enable it to fully meet its operating requirements. During fiscal years 1991 through 1995, the Resort Company was able to meet its operating requirements through its own operations. In March 1995, the Smith Creek Metropolitan District ("SCMD") and the Bachelor Gulch Metropolitan District ("BGMD") were organized as quasi- municipal corporations and political subdivisions of the State of Colorado. It is contemplated that the two districts will cooperate in the financing, construction and operation of basic public infrastructure serving the BGMD. SCMD was organized primarily to own, operate and maintain water, street, traffic and safety, transportation, fire protection, emergency medical, parks and recreation, television relay and translation, sanitation and certain other facilities and equipment of the BGMD. SCMD is comprised of approximately 150 acres of open space land owned by the Company and members of the Board of Directors of the SCMD. The BGMD is located adjacent to the SCMD and covers an area of approximately 1,250 acres of land in an unincorporated portion of Eagle County, Colorado between the Beaver Creek and Arrowhead ski mountains. All of the land in the BGMD has received final approval by Eagle County for development as two F-9 GILLETT HOLDINGS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONCLUDED) 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES--(CONTINUED) planned unit developments including various single family, two-family, cluster home and townhouse units and related uses. All of the land in the BGMD is currently owned by the Company. The Company is currently preparing to offer the land for sale to persons, including builders, who may construct up to 600 units of various dwelling types over the next several years. Of the $50 million of letter of credit availability under the Company's Credit Facility, (see Note 3), approximately $42 million will ultimately be used to credit enhance the SCMD revenue bonds in order to secure the timely payment of principal and interest on the bonds. Currently, SCMD has issued $26,000,000 of revenue bonds which have been credit enhanced with a $27,581,000 letter of credit issued under the Credit Agreement. The SCMD bonds are variable rate bonds which mature on October 1, 2035. In June, 1995, Vail Associates entered into an agreement with Cordillera Valley Club Investors Limited Partnership and Stag Gulch Partners to purchase 100 Cordillera Club memberships for resale to purchasers of residential lots. The obligation to purchase memberships is secured by a $4,400,000 Letter of Credit. As of March 31, 1996, Vail Associates has paid $850,000 in connection with this agreement and has resold memberships costing $807,500 to purchasers of residential lots. 7. STOCK GRANTS, OPTIONS AND WARRANTS Pursuant to an employment agreement, George N. Gillett, Jr. (GNG), the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, earned, as additional performance-based compensation over the three year period ending on October 8, 1995, 357,488 shares of Class 2 Common Stock, warrants (with an exercise price of $13.70 per share) for an additional 204,082 shares of Class 2 Common Stock and long-term stock options (with an exercise price of $23.67 per share, increasing 20% per year) for 582,404 shares of Class 2 Common Stock. These warrants, long-term stock options and shares of Class 2 Common Stock have all been issued to GNG. The Company has adopted a stock option plan pursuant to which options covering an aggregate of 1,022,755 shares of Common Stock may be issued to key employees, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company or its subsidiaries. Options covering 896,650 shares of common stock have been issued to various key executives of Vail Associates. All of the options vest in equal installments over five years, with exercise prices ranging from $13.70 per share to $21.50 per share. As of March 31, 1996, 394,604 of these options were exercisable. F-10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the September 30, 1995 Form 10-K and the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 1996 and September 30, 1995 and for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, which provide additional information regarding financial condition and operating results. SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 VERSUS SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 Net revenues increased $34,780,000 (30%) for the six months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 1995 due to increases in both resort revenues and revenues from real estate transactions. Resort revenues increased $9,395,000 (9%) due to both increased skier days and increased revenue per skier. Real estate revenues increased $25,475,000 (337%) due primarily to residential lot sales in the Strawberry Park development at the Beaver Creek Resort and commercial sales in Beaver Creek Village. Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $23,264,000 (39%) for the six months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 1995 due to increases in operating expenses related to both resort operations and real estate transactions. The increase in resort operations operating expenses of $6,137,000 (11%) corresponds to the increase in resort operations revenues. The increase in operating expenses related to real estate transactions of $18,924,000 (220%) results from the higher residential lot and commercial sales at the Beaver Creek Resort. Corporate expenses decreased $1,797,000 (55%) for the six months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 1995 due primarily to the Company no longer incurring compensation expense related to stock grants subsequent to September 30, 1995 (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements), as well as other cost cutting measures. The increase in income from operations from $40,972,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1995 to $52,189,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1996 was attributable primarily to an increase in both resort operations revenues and residential lot and commercial sales at the Beaver Creek Resort, offset by related operating expenses. During the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company recorded interest expense of $10,424,000 and $10,930,000, respectively, which relates primarily to the interest on the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes and the Industrial Development Bonds and Credit Facility of Vail Associates. The decrease in interest expense from 1995 to 1996 is attributable to the redemptions of $30,000,000 principal amount of Senior Subordinated Notes on December 11, 1995 and $24,500,000 on February 2, 1996, offset by call premiums paid in connection with those redemptions (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources"). THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 VERSUS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 Net revenues increased $10,612,000 (13%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995 due to increases in both resort revenues and revenues from real estate transactions. Resort revenues increased $6,675,000 (8%) due to both increased skier days and increased revenue per skier. Real estate revenues increased $3,937,000 (310%) due to residential lot sales in the Strawberry Park development at the Beaver Creek Resort and commercial sales in Beaver Creek Village. Operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $6,773,000 (19%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995 due primarily to increases in operating expenses related to both resort operations and real estate transactions. The increase in resort operations operating expenses of $6,720,000 (21%) corresponds to the increase in resort operations revenues. The increase in operating expenses related to real estate transactions of $1,889,000 (93%) results from the higher residential lot and commercial sales at the Beaver Creek Resort. Corporate expenses decreased 2 $1,229,000 (68%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995 due primarily to the Company no longer incurring compensation expense related to stock grants subsequent to September 30, 1995 (see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements), as well as other cost cutting measures. The increase in income from operations from $40,200,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 to $44,070,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was attributable primarily to an increase in both resort operations revenues and residential lot and commercial sales at the Beaver Creek Resort, offset by related operating expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company recorded interest expense of $4,158,000 and $4,859,000, respectively, which relates primarily to the interest on the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes and the Industrial Development Bonds and Credit Facility of Vail Associates. The decrease in interest expense from 1995 to 1996 is primarily attributable to the redemptions of $30,000,000 principal amount of Senior Subordinated Notes on December 11, 1995 and $24,500,000 on February 2, 1996, offset by the call premium paid in connection with the $24,500,000 redemption (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources"). LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has historically provided funds for debt service, capital expenditures and acquisitions through a combination of cash flow from operations, short-term and long-term borrowings and sales of real estate. At September 30, 1995, the Company had outstanding $117,147,000 of Senior Subordinated Notes maturing on June 30, 2002. On December 11, 1995 and February 2, 1996, the Company redeemed principal amounts of $30,000,000 and $24,500,000, respectively, of Senior Subordinated Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture. Under these provisions, the Company was required to pay a call premium in the amount of 5% of the principal redeemed for each of these redemptions. At March 31, 1996, the principal amount of Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding is $62,647,000. Cash to make debt service payments on the Senior Subordinated Notes will be provided to the Company through dividends or other payments from Vail Associates. Under the covenants in the Indenture the Company may not, among other things, incur additional indebtedness unless expressly permitted in the Indenture; make certain Restricted Payments (as defined in the Indenture); sell assets of the Company or its subsidiaries unless within the guidelines set forth in the Indenture; engage in certain transactions with Affiliates (as defined in the Indenture); or make certain acquisitions in excess of specific limitations. However, the Senior Subordinated Indenture does not restrict the Company and its subsidiaries from incurring additional indebtedness if the Company and its subsidiaries maintain a specified minimum ratio between earnings and debt service obligations. The Indenture also permits the Company and its subsidiaries to refinance outstanding indebtedness and to incur intercompany indebtedness, among other permitted indebtedness. Vail Associates has $41,200,000 of outstanding Industrial Development Bonds issued by Eagle County, Colorado which accrue interest at an 8% tax-exempt, fixed rate and mature on August 1, 2009. Interest is payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1. Vail Associates also has a credit facility (the "Credit Facility") that provides for total availability of $135,000,000, which is comprised of a $105,000,000 Facility A Revolver and a $30,000,000 Facility B Revolver. The maximum borrowings available under Facility A will be reduced by $25,000,000 on March 31, 1999 with all outstanding principal due on March 31, 2000. No borrowings under Facility B are permitted unless the maximum borrowings under Facility A are outstanding. The maximum borrowings available under Facility B will be reduced by $10,000,000 on March 31, 1997 and further reduced by an additional $10,000,000 on March 31, 1998 with all outstanding principal due on March 31, 1999. Interest on outstanding advances under the Credit Facility is payable monthly or quarterly at rates based upon either LIBOR plus a margin (ranging from .75% to 3 1.75%) or prime plus a margin (up to .25%). These rates fluctuate depending on the ratio of funded debt to resort cash flow as defined in the Credit Facility. The Company is also required to pay an unused commitment fee ranging from .25% to .375%. The Credit Facility is available for the seasonal working capital needs of the Company and for capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, including the issuance of up to $50,000,000 of letters of credit. Outstanding letters of credit at March 31, 1996 total $33,678,000. Vail Associates is permitted under the Credit Facility to make, to the Company, quarterly dividend payments in the amount of net cash proceeds from real estate sales, annual dividend payments, payable in March and April of each year, based upon annual Excess Cash Flow as defined in the Credit Facility, and management fee payments to a subsidiary of the Company not to exceed $3,000,000 per year. At September 30, 1995, borrowings outstanding under Facility A totalled $36,000,000. During the six months ended March 31, 1996, Vail Associates borrowed $40,000,000 under Facility A and repaid $72,000,000 resulting in an outstanding balance of $4,000,000 at March 31, 1996. Based on current levels of operations and anticipated growth and cash availability from Vail Associates, the Company does not anticipate that it will default on its obligations under any of its debt prior to maturity. Capital expenditures of the Company for the six months ended March 31, 1996 were $15,791,000, all of which relate to the resort and real estate activities of Vail Associates. These expenditures included infrastructure and other development costs for Bachelor Gulch and Arrowhead Villages and mountain improvements for Bachelor Gulch. The Company plans to make additional capital expenditures of approximately $54,000,000 in the second half of the fiscal year ending September 30, 1996, consisting primarily of real estate development costs and mountain improvements for Bachelor Gulch and Arrowhead, a redeveloped base area, two replacement ski lifts, and various other equipment. The Company plans to fund fiscal 1996 capital expenditures, as well as debt service and operating expenses, through a combination of existing cash balances, cash flow from operations and availability under the Credit Facility as discussed above. The Company believes that inflation during the past three years has had little effect on its performance and that any impact on costs has been largely offset by increased pricing. 4 PART II ITEM 1.
