WATSCO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2013
(In thousands, except share and per share data)
1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Basis of Consolidation
Watsco, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, Watsco, which may be referred to as we, us or our) was incorporated in 1956 in Florida and is the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies (HVAC/R) in the HVAC/R distribution industry. The accompanying Watsco September 30, 2013 interim condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements herein. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this report include the accounts of Watsco and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries and include the accounts of three joint ventures with Carrier Corporation (Carrier), in each of which Watsco maintains a controlling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. Sales of residential central air conditioners, heating equipment and parts and supplies are seasonal. Furthermore, results of operations can be impacted favorably or unfavorably based on weather patterns during the summer and winter selling seasons. Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is typically highest in the second and third quarters, and demand for heating equipment is usually highest in the fourth quarter. Demand related to the new construction sectors throughout most of the markets is fairly consistent during the year, except for dependence on housing completions and related weather and economic conditions.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the 2013 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or earnings per share as previously reported.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Significant estimates include valuation reserves for accounts receivable, inventories and income taxes, reserves related to self-insurance programs and the valuation of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. While we believe that these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from such estimates.
New Accounting Standards
Reporting Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended guidance that requires disclosure for amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) by component. The amendments require the presentation of amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the reporting period. For amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, a cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts is required. This guidance is effective prospectively for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.
Presentation of Unrecognized Tax Benefits
In July 2013, the FASB issued guidance that requires the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward rather than as a liability when the uncertain tax position would reduce the net operating loss under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction and the entity intends to use the deferred tax asset for that purpose. This guidance is effective prospectively for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.

Diluted earnings per share for our Common stock assumes the conversion of all of our Class B common stock into Common stock as of the beginning of the fiscal year and adjusts for the dilutive effects of outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method; therefore, no allocation of earnings to Class B common stock is required. As of September 30, 2013 and 2012, our outstanding Class B common stock was convertible into 2,706,860 and 2,854,055 shares of our Common stock, respectively.

4. | DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
We routinely use certain derivative instruments to hedge foreign currency exposure. Although these derivatives were not designated as hedges and/or did not qualify for hedge accounting, they were effective economic hedges for the periods presented. The changes in fair value of economic hedges are recognized in earnings. During 2012, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts to offset the earnings impact that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations would otherwise have had on certain monetary liabilities that are denominated in nonfunctional currencies. The changes in fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts were a (loss) gain of $(1,534), $14, $(6) and $(233) for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income. The total notional value of our foreign currency exchange contracts as of September 30, 2013 was $40,500, and such contracts have varying terms expiring through January 2014. See Note 5.

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for these assets and liabilities, as well as the level of input used to measure fair value:
Available-for-sale securities the investments are exchange-traded equity securities. Fair values for these investments are based on closing stock prices from active markets and are therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of available-for-sale securities is included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative financial instruments the derivatives are foreign currency forward contracts. Fair value is based on observable market inputs, such as forward rates in active markets; therefore, we classify the derivatives within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The fair value of derivative financial instruments is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
There were no transfers in or out of Level 1 and Level 2 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
6. | ACQUISITIONS |
Carrier Enterprise I
Carrier Enterprise, LLC (Carrier Enterprise I) is a joint venture formed on July 1, 2009 with Carrier that operates a network of locations primarily throughout the U.S. Sun Belt. From its inception until July 2, 2012, we owned 60% of the joint venture and Carrier owned 40%. We had an option to purchase an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which became exercisable on July 1, 2012. On July 2, 2012, we exercised this option and acquired an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I for cash consideration of $51,881. We have a second option to purchase an additional 10% interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which becomes exercisable beginning on July 1, 2014.
Carrier Enterprise II
In 2011, we formed a second joint venture with Carrier and completed two additional transactions. In April 2011, Carrier contributed 28 of its company-owned locations in eight Northeast U.S. states, and we contributed 14 locations in the Northeast U.S. In July 2011, we purchased Carriers distribution operations in Mexico, which included seven locations. Collectively, the Northeast locations and the Mexico operations are referred to as Carrier Enterprise II. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise II, and Carrier has a 40% noncontrolling interest. Neither we nor Carrier has any options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise II.
Carrier Enterprise III
On April 27, 2012, we completed the formation of a joint venture with UTC Canada Corporation (UTC Canada), an affiliate of Carrier, to distribute Carrier-manufactured HVAC products in Canada. The newly formed joint venture, Carrier Enterprise Canada, L.P. (Carrier Enterprise III), operates 35 locations throughout Canada. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III and Carrier has a 40% noncontrolling interest. Total consideration paid by us for our 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III comprised cash consideration of $80,489 and the issuance to UTC Canada of 1,250,000 shares of Common stock, having a fair value of $93,250. Neither we nor UTC Canada has any options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise III.
The purchase price for Carrier Enterprise III resulted in the recognition of $216,463 in goodwill and intangibles. The fair value of the identified intangible assets was $151,172 and consisted of $95,515 in trade names and distribution rights and $55,657 in customer relationships to be amortized over a 15 year period. For Canadian income tax purposes, seventy-five percent of the tax basis of the acquired goodwill is amortized at a rate of 7% annually on a declining balance basis.
10 of 21
The purchase price allocation is based upon a purchase price of $173,739, which represents the fair value of our 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III. The table below presents the allocation of the total consideration to tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the noncontrolling interest from the acquisition of our 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III based on the respective fair values as of April 27, 2012:

7. | DEBT |
On July 1, 2013, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to our unsecured $500,000 syndicated revolving credit agreement, which extended the maturity date from April 27, 2017 to July 1, 2018, reduced pricing, improved covenant flexibility to reflect the seasonal nature of our working capital requirements and modified certain definitions. Borrowings under the amended credit facility bear interest at either LIBOR-based rates plus a spread, which ranges from 87.5 to 250 basis-points, depending upon our ratio of total debt to EBITDA, or on rates based on the higher of the Prime rate or the Federal Funds Rate, in each case plus a spread which ranges from 0 to 150 basis-points, depending upon our ratio of total debt to EBITDA. We pay a variable commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitment under the amended credit facility, ranging from 12.5 to 35 basis-points. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $284,800 and $316,182 were outstanding under the revolving credit agreement, respectively. The revolving credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including financial covenants with respect to consolidated leverage and interest coverage ratios and other customary restrictions. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2013.
8. | SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY |
Common Stock Dividends

9. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Litigation, Claims and Assessments
We are involved in litigation incidental to the operation of our business. We vigorously defend all matters in which we or our subsidiaries are named defendants and, for insurable losses, maintain significant levels of insurance to protect against adverse judgments, claims or assessments that may affect us. Although the adequacy of existing insurance coverage and the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based on the current information available, we do not believe the ultimate liability associated with any known claims or litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Self-Insurance
Self-insurance reserves are maintained relative to company-wide casualty insurance and health benefit programs. The level of exposure from catastrophic events is limited by the purchase of stop-loss and aggregate liability reinsurance coverage. When estimating the self-insurance liabilities and related reserves, management considers a number of factors, which include historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and valuations provided by independent third-party actuaries. Management reviews its assumptions with its independent third-party actuaries to evaluate whether the self-insurance reserves are adequate. If actual claims or adverse development of loss reserves occur and exceed these estimates, additional reserves may be required. The estimation process contains uncertainty since management must use judgment to estimate the ultimate cost that will be incurred to settle reported claims and unreported claims for incidents incurred but not reported as of the balance sheet date. Reserves in the amounts of $5,478 and $4,844 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, were established related to such insurance programs and are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

10. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
Purchases from Carrier and its affiliates comprised 62%, 57%, 58% and 57% of all purchases made during the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximately $96,000 and $62,000, respectively, was payable to Carrier and its affiliates, net of receivables. Our joint ventures with Carrier also sell HVAC products to Carrier and its affiliates. Revenues in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 include $7,834, $10,466, $21,822 and $27,314, respectively, of sales to Carrier and its affiliates. We believe these transactions are conducted at arms-length in the ordinary course of business.
Carrier Enterprise II entered into Transactional Services Agreements (TSAs) with Carrier, pursuant to which Carrier performed certain business processes on its behalf, including processes involving the use of certain information technologies. The services provided by Carrier pursuant to the TSAs terminated on April 30, 2012. The fees related to these TSAs were $807 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income. At December 31, 2012, $25 related to these TSAs was payable to Carrier and was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Amounts outstanding were repaid in 2013 and no further services are required under the TSAs for Carrier Enterprise II.
Carrier Enterprise III entered into TSAs with UTC Canada, pursuant to which UTC Canada performs certain business processes on behalf of Carrier Enterprise III, including processes involving the use of certain information technologies, and UTC Canada entered into TSAs with Carrier Enterprise III, pursuant to which Carrier Enterprise III performs certain business processes on behalf of UTC Canada. The services provided pursuant to the TSAs terminate on various dates but may be extended as agreed upon by the parties. The fees payable by Carrier Enterprise III to UTC Canada under one TSA were substantially offset by the fees payable to Carrier Enterprise III by UTC Canada under the other TSA.
At December 31, 2012, $29,637 was payable to Carrier and UTC Canada for unpaid distributions declared to the noncontrolling interest. This amount was paid to Carrier and UTC Canada in February 2013.

Company Overview
Watsco, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, Watsco, or we, us or our) was incorporated in Florida in 1956 and is the largest distributor of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies (HVAC/R) in the HVAC/R distribution industry. At September 30, 2013, we operated from 571 locations in 38 U.S. states, Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico with additional market coverage on an export basis to Latin America and the Caribbean.
Revenues primarily consist of sales of air conditioning, heating and refrigeration equipment and related parts and supplies. Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of selling expenses, the largest components of which are salaries, commissions and marketing expenses that are variable and correlate to changes in sales. Other significant selling, general and administrative expenses relate to the operation of warehouse facilities, including a fleet of trucks and forklifts and facility rent, which are payable mostly under non-cancelable operating leases.
Sales of residential central air conditioners, heating equipment and parts and supplies are seasonal. Furthermore, results of operations can be impacted favorably or unfavorably based on weather patterns during summer and winter selling seasons. Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is typically highest in the second and third quarters, and demand for heating equipment usually highest in the fourth quarter. Demand related to the new construction sectors throughout most of the markets is fairly consistent during the year, except for dependence on housing completions and related weather and economic conditions.
Joint Ventures with Carrier Corporation
In 2009, we formed a joint venture with Carrier Corporation (Carrier), which we refer to as Carrier Enterprise I, in which Carrier contributed 95 of its company-owned locations in 13 U.S. Sun Belt states and Puerto Rico and its export division in Miami, Florida, and we contributed 15 locations that distributed Carrier products. On July 2, 2012, we exercised our option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which increased our ownership interest to 70%. We have an option to purchase from Carrier an additional 10% interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which becomes exercisable in July 2014.
In 2011, we formed a second joint venture with Carrier and completed two additional transactions. In April 2011, Carrier contributed 28 of its company-owned locations in eight Northeast U.S. states, and we contributed 14 locations in the Northeast U.S. In July 2011, we purchased Carriers distribution operations in Mexico, which included seven locations. Collectively, the Northeast locations and the Mexico operations are referred to as Carrier Enterprise II. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise II, and Carrier has a 40% noncontrolling interest. Neither we nor Carrier has any options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise II.
In April 2012, we formed a third joint venture, which we refer to as Carrier Enterprise III, with UTC Canada Corporation, referred to as UTC Canada, an affiliate of Carrier. Carrier contributed 35 of its company-owned locations in Canada to Carrier Enterprise III. We have a 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III, and UTC Canada has a 40% noncontrolling interest. Neither we nor UTC Canada has any options to purchase additional ownership interests in Carrier Enterprise III.
Critical Accounting Policies
Managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, management reevaluates its judgments and estimates, which are based on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
14 of 21
Our critical accounting policies are included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed on February 28, 2013. We believe that there have been no significant changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The following narratives include the results of operations for businesses acquired during 2012. The results of operations for these acquisitions have been included in our condensed consolidated unaudited statements of income beginning on the respective dates of acquisition. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the pro forma financial information combining our results of operations with the operations of Carrier Enterprise III. The following narratives also reflect our acquisition of an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I, which became effective on July 2, 2012. We did not acquire any businesses during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
In the following narratives, computations and disclosure information referring to same-store basis exclude the effects of locations acquired or locations opened or closed during the immediately preceding 12 months unless they are within close geographical proximity to existing locations. At September 30, 2013 and 2012, 20 and 62 locations, respectively, were excluded from same-store basis information.

Third Quarter 2013 Compared to Third Quarter 2012
Revenues
Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased $61.0 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2012, including $1.0 million from locations opened during the preceding 12 months, partially offset by $3.2 million from closed locations. On a same-store basis, revenues increased $63.2 million, or 6%, as compared to the same period in 2012, reflecting an 8% increase in sales of HVAC equipment (9% increase in residential HVAC equipment and a 3% increase in commercial HVAC equipment), a 3% increase in sales of other HVAC products and a 1% increase in sales of commercial refrigeration products. The increase in same-store revenues is primarily due to strong demand for residential HVAC equipment.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased $16.1 million, or 7%, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of increased revenues. Gross profit margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 improved 10 basis-points to 23.9% versus 23.8% for the same period in 2012, primarily due to higher realized gross margins for non-equipment products.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased $6.3 million, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of increased revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 decreased to 15.1% from 15.4% for the same period in 2012. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to leveraging of fixed operating costs as compared to 2012. For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, selling, general and administrative expenses included $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased $0.6 million, or 50%, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of an increase in average outstanding borrowings, partially offset by a lower effective interest rate in 2013 as compared to 2012.
Income Taxes
Income taxes increased to $27.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $25.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 and are a composite of the income taxes attributable to our wholly owned operations and investments, and income taxes attributable to the Carrier joint ventures, which are taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rate attributable to us was 37.0% for both the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
Net Income Attributable to Watsco, Inc.
Net income attributable to Watsco for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 increased $4.7 million, or 11%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues, expanded profit margins and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues, as discussed above.

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $249.8 million, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2012, including $87.4 million attributable to the 35 new Carrier Enterprise III locations acquired in 2012, and $1.9 million from other locations opened during the preceding 12 months, partially offset by $6.1 million from closed locations. On a same-store basis, revenues increased $166.6 million, or 6%, as compared to the same period in 2012. Revenues reflect an 8% increase in sales of HVAC equipment (11% increase in residential HVAC equipment offset by a 2% decrease in commercial HVAC equipment), a 3% increase in sales of other HVAC products and a 4% increase in sales of commercial refrigeration products. The increase in same-store revenues is primarily due to strong demand for residential HVAC equipment.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $69.1 million, or 11%, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of increased revenues. Gross profit margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 improved 30 basis-points to 24.0% versus 23.7% for the same period in 2012, primarily due to higher realized gross margins for residential HVAC equipment and non-equipment products, and higher gross margins achieved by Carrier Enterprise III.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $29.5 million, or 7%, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of increased revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 decreased to 16.1% from 16.5% for the same period in 2012. The decrease in
16 of 21
selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was primarily due to leveraging of fixed operating costs as compared to 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, selling, general and administrative expenses included $1.1 million of acquisition-related costs. On a same-store basis, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 2% as compared to 2012.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $1.2 million, or 36%, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily as a result of an increase in average outstanding borrowings, partially offset by a lower effective interest rate in 2013 as compared to 2012.
Income Taxes
Income taxes increased to $66.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $54.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and are a composite of the income taxes attributable to our wholly owned operations and investments, and income taxes attributable to the Carrier joint ventures, which are taxed as partnerships for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rate attributable to us was 37.0% for both the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.
Net Income Attributable to Watsco, Inc.
Net income attributable to Watsco for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $21.8 million, or 25%, compared to the same period in 2012. The increase was primarily driven by higher revenues, expanded profit margins and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues as discussed above, and by a reduction in the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest related to Carrier Enterprise I following our purchase of an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I in July 2012.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to execute our business strategy and fund operating and investing activities, taking into consideration the seasonal demand of HVAC/R products, which peaks in the months of May through August. Significant factors that could affect our liquidity include the following:
| cash necessary to fund our business (primarily working capital requirements); |
| the adequacy of our available bank line of credit; |
| the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms; |
| acquisitions; |
| dividend payments; |
| capital expenditures; and |
| the timing and extent of common stock repurchases. |
Sources and Uses of Cash
We rely on cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity (subject to certain restrictions) under our revolving credit agreement to fund seasonal working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes, including anticipated dividend payments, capital expenditures, business acquisitions and development of our long-term operating strategies.
As of September 30, 2013, we had $29.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, of which, $19.1 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. We believe that our operating cash flows, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under our line of credit will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that our current sources of available funds will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements.
Our access to funds under the line of credit is dependent on the ability of the syndicate banks to meet their respective funding commitments. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets could adversely affect our ability to draw on our line of credit and may also affect the determination of interest rates for borrowers, particularly rates based on LIBOR, which is one of the base rates under our line of credit. Any disruptions in these markets could result in increased borrowing costs and/or reduced borrowing capacity under our line of credit.
Working Capital
Working capital increased to $850.0 million at September 30, 2013 from $733.1 million at December 31, 2012, reflecting higher levels of accounts receivable and inventories, primarily due to the seasonality of our business.

Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:
2013 | 2012 | Change | ||||||||||
Cash flows provided by operating activities |
$ | 51.2 | $ | 64.4 | $ | (13.2 | ) | |||||
Cash flows used in investing activities |

Cash flows (used in) provided by financing activities |
$ | (84.7 | ) | $ | 54.8 | $ | (139.5 | ) |
The individual items contributing to cash flow changes for the periods presented are detailed in the condensed consolidated unaudited statements of cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Operating Activities
The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was principally attributable to changes in operating assets and liabilities, which were primarily composed of lower levels of accounts payable and other liabilities due to approximately $18.0 million in incremental vendor payments from a one-time change in payment terms related to Carrier Enterprise II and higher accounts receivable driven by increased sales volume in 2013.
Investing Activities
The decrease in net cash used in investing activities is due to the purchase of our 60% controlling interest in Carrier Enterprise III for cash consideration of $80.5 million in 2012 partially offset by higher capital expenditures in 2013.
Financing Activities
The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to lower net borrowings under our revolving credit agreement and an increase in distributions to the noncontrolling interest in 2013, partially offset by the exercise of our option to acquire an additional 10% ownership interest in Carrier Enterprise I for $51.9 million in 2012 and a decrease in dividends paid in 2013.
Revolving Credit Agreement
We maintain an unsecured, syndicated revolving credit agreement that provides for borrowings of up to $500.0 million. Borrowings are used to fund seasonal working capital needs and for other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, dividends, stock repurchases and issuances of letters of credit. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $284.8 million and $316.2 million were outstanding under the revolving credit agreement, respectively. The revolving credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants with respect to consolidated leverage and interest coverage ratios, and other customary restrictions. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2013.
On July 1, 2013, we entered into an amendment to the revolving credit agreement, which extended the maturity date from April 27, 2017 to July 1, 2018, reduced pricing, improved covenant flexibility to reflect the seasonal nature of our working capital requirements and modified certain definitions. Borrowings under the amended credit facility bear interest at either LIBOR-based rates plus a spread, which ranges from 87.5 to 250 basis-points, depending upon our ratio of total debt to EBITDA, or on rates based on the higher of the Prime rate or the Federal Funds Rate, in each case plus a spread which ranges from 0 to 150 basis-points, depending upon our ratio of total debt to EBITDA. We pay a variable commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitment under the amended credit facility, ranging from 12.5 to 35 basis-points.
Acquisitions
We continually evaluate potential acquisitions and/or joint ventures and routinely hold discussions with a number of acquisition candidates. Should suitable acquisition opportunities arise that would require additional financing, we believe our financial position and earnings history provide a sufficient basis for us to either obtain additional debt financing at competitive rates and on reasonable terms or raise capital through the issuance of equity securities.
Common Stock Dividends
We paid cash dividends of $0.75 per share and $1.86 per share of Common stock and Class B common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. On October 2, 2013, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.40 per share of Common stock and Class B common stock that was paid on October 31, 2013 to shareholders of record as of October 15, 2013. Future dividends and/or dividend rate increases will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon such factors as cash flow generated by operations, profitability, financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
In the normal course of business we are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage certain of these exposures, we use derivative financial instruments, including forward contracts and swaps. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Information with respect to this item may be found in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated by reference in this Item 3 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no material changes in market risk from the information provided in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) that are, among other things, designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Senior Vice President (SVP) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure and appropriate SEC filings.
Our management, with the participation of our CEO, SVP and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, and, based on that evaluation, our CEO, SVP and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at a reasonable assurance level, at and as of such date.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We are continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations and of our internal controls. This results in refinements to processes throughout the Company. However, there have been no changes in internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. In accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, we have not yet assessed the internal control over financial reporting of the 35 locations added by Carrier Enterprise III on April 27, 2012, which represents approximately 17% of our consolidated assets at September 30, 2013 and approximately 8% of our consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. From the acquisition date to September 30, 2013, the processes and systems of Carrier Enterprise III did not impact the internal controls over financial reporting for our other consolidated subsidiaries.
PART II. | OTHER INFORMATION |
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
Information with respect to this item may be found in Note 9 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the caption Litigation, Claims and Assessments, which information is incorporated by reference in this Item 1 of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
Information about risk factors for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 does not differ materially from that set forth in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
