NOTES TO CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
July 31, 2004
(Unaudited)
Joy Global Inc. manufactures and markets products classified into two business segments: underground mining machinery (Joy Mining Machinery or Joy) and surface mining equipment (P&H Mining Equipment or P&H). Joy is a major manufacturer of underground mining equipment for the extraction of coal and other bedded minerals and offers comprehensive service locations near major mining regions worldwide. P&H is a major producer of surface mining equipment for the extraction of ores and minerals and provides extensive operational support for many types of equipment used in surface mining. |
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are unaudited and have been prepared by us in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation on a going concern basis of the results of operations, cash flows and financial position for all periods presented have been made. All adjustments made are of a normal recurring nature. |
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 2003. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. |
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates. |
On January 23, 2004, we entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement (Credit Agreement) which consists of a $200 million revolving credit facilty maturing on October 15, 2008. Substantially all of our assets and our domestic subsidiariesassets, other than real estate, are pledged as collateral under the Credit Agreement. Outstanding borrowings bear interest equal to either LIBOR plus the applicable margin (3.25% to 2.00%) or the Base Rate (defined as the higher of the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%) plus the applicable margin (2.25% to 1.00%) at our option depending on certain of our financial ratios. We pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.50% to 0.75% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. In 2002, we issued $200 million in 8.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 15, 2012. |
Both the Credit Agreement and Senior Subordinated Note Indenture contain restrictions and financial covenants relating to, among other things, minimum financial performance and limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, liens, asset sales, and capital expenditures. The covenants in the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture are generally less restrictive than the covenants in the Credit Agreement. Interest coverage, leverage and fixed charge coverage covenants in the Credit Agreement generally become more restrictive over the term of the agreement. At July 31, 2004, we were in compliance with financial covenants in the Credit Agreement and the Indenture. |
At July 31, 2004, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement, which count toward the $200 million credit limit, totaled $70.4 million. The amount available for borrowings under the Credit Agreement is also limited by a borrowing base calculation. At July 31, 2004, there was $129.6 million available for borrowings under the Credit Agreement. |
We have 150,000,000 shares of authorized common stock, par value $1.00 per share, 50,000,000 of which will ultimately be distributed in connection with our July 12, 2001 (Effective Date) emergence from bankruptcy and are deemed outstanding for accounting purposes at the Effective Date. Under our Plan of Reorganization (POR), the 50,000,000 shares are being distributed to holders of allowed claims in the bankruptcy case. As of July 31, 2004, total distributions under the POR were 48,766,577 shares. The remaining 1,233,423 shares are held in a disputed claims equity reserve and will be distributed in accordance with the POR as the two remaining bankruptcy related claims are finally resolved. |
Our stock incentive plan authorizes the grant of up to 8,056,000 stock options, performance units, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to officers, employees and directors. As of July 31, 2004, stock option grants aggregating approximately 5.1 million shares of common stock had been made to approximately 250 individuals. Options to purchase 15,000 shares have also been granted to each of our six outside directors. On February 25, 2003, and February 24, 2004, restricted stock unit grants of 5,582 and 2,159, respectively, were made to each of our six outside directors. These restricted stock units vest one year after the grant date and provide that a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of vested units will be delivered one year after the directors service on the board terminates. On January 21, 2004, grants of 47,465 restricted stock units were made to certain executive officers and key employees. These restricted stock units vest over a five-year period with one-third vesting on the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the grant date and provide that a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of vested units will be delivered to the individual as the units vest. Individuals are credited with additional units to reflect cash dividends paid on the underlying common stock. In the event of a change in control, the units will be paid out in cash based on the market price of the common stock as of the date of the change in control. |
The 2001, 2003 and 2004 Performance Unit Award Programs under our stock incentive plan provide long-term incentive compensation opportunities to certain senior executives. Up to approximately 818,000 shares of common stock may be earned by the senior executives under the 2001, 2003 and 2004 Performance Unit Award Programs if, at the end of a three and one quarter year award cycle, for the 2001 Performance Unit Awards, or at the end of a three year award cycle, for the 2003 and 2004 Performance Unit Awards, cumulative net cash flow, as defined in the performance award agreements, exceeds certain threshold amounts. Each performance unit represents the right to earn one share of common stock. Awards can range from 0% to 150% of the target award opportunities and may be paid out in stock, cash or a combination of stock and cash. In the event of a change in control, the performance units are paid out in cash based on the greater of actual performance or target award. |
As of July 31, 2004, awards under the stock incentive plan, were accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation. |

We and our subsidiaries are involved in various unresolved legal matters that arise in the normal course of operations, the most prevalent of which relate to product liability (including asbestos-related liability), employment and commercial matters. Also, as a normal part of their operations, our subsidiaries undertake contractual obligations, warranties and guarantees in connection with the sale of products or services. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and favorable or unfavorable resolutions may affect the results of operations on a quarter-to-quarter basis, we believe that the outcome of such legal and other matters will not have a materially adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. |
John G. Kling, purportedly on his own behalf and in a representative capacity for the Harnischfeger Industries Employees Savings Plan, filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts on November 9, 2001, against the Company and certain of our present and former employees, officers and directors. This action seeks damages in an unspecified amount based on, among other things, allegations that the members of our Pension Investment Committee, the Pension Committee of the Board of Directors, and Fidelity Management Trust Company failed to properly discharge their fiduciary obligations under ERISA with respect to the Harnischfeger Common Stock Fund in the Harnischfeger Industries Employees Savings Plan. On May 24, 2004, the court granted our motion to dismiss the Company plan and Board committee and denied our motion to dismiss the Company and our former directors from this action. |
The General Organization for Industrial and Mining Projects (IMC), an agency of the government of Egypt commenced legal proceedings in Egypt in late 2002 against Joy Mining Machinery Limited (Joy MM), one of our subsidiaries located in the United Kingdom, to resolve certain disputes arising under an agreement entered into in 1998 between Joy MM and IMC relating to underground mining equipment for the Abu Tartur project in Egypt. IMC may seek wrongfully to draw on approximately $15 million in bank guarantees established for the benefit of IMC in connection with the agreement. On August 6, 2004, The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes declined to accept jurisdiction of arbitration proceedings initiated by Joy MM against IMC. The Company is considering its options in this matter. |
By notice dated May 16, 2003, Sokolovskaya Investment Company (SIC), a mining company in Russia, filed a request for arbitration with the ICC International Court of Arbitration against Joy MM to recover damages alleged to have arisen out of contracts entered into by Joy MM and SIC in 1995 and 1996 for the supply of underground mining equipment and related services. SIC seeks damages for loss of profit, delay, repairs, loss of use and other consequential damages of between $74 million and $83 million. An arbitration panel has been selected and proceedings before it have commenced. |
At July 31, 2004, we were contingently liable to banks, financial institutions and others for approximately $92.8 million for outstanding letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds securing performance of sales contracts and other guarantees in the ordinary course of business. Of the $92.8 million, approximately $6.2 million was issued at our request on behalf of Beloit Corporation. At July 31, 2004, there were $2.6 million of outstanding letters of credit or other guarantees issued by non-U.S. banks for non-U.S. subsidiaries. |
From time to time we and our subsidiaries become involved in proceedings relating to environmental matters. We believe that the resolution of such environmental matters will not have a materially adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. |
We have entered into various forward foreign exchange contracts with major international financial institutions for the purpose of hedging our risk of loss associated with changes in foreign exchange rates. These contracts involve off-balance-sheet market and credit risk. As of July 31, 2004, the nominal or face value of forward foreign exchange contracts to which we are a party, in absolute U.S. dollar equivalent terms, was $137.8 million. |
Forward exchange contracts are entered into to protect the value of committed future foreign currency receipts and disbursements and net investment hedges and consequently any market related loss on the forward contract would be offset by changes in the value of the hedged item. As a result, we are not exposed to net market risk associated with these instruments. |
We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to our forward exchange contracts, but we do not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. A contract is generally subject to credit risk only when it has a positive fair value and the maximum exposure is the amount of the positive fair value. |

We provide a warranty reserve for the estimated costs that may be incurred under product warranties to remedy deficiencies of quality or performance in our products. These product warranties extend over either a specified period of time, units of production or machine hours depending upon the product subject to the warranty. We accrue a provision for estimated future warranty costs based upon the historical relationship of warranty costs to sales. The warranty reserve is included in other accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. We periodically review the adequacy of the accrual for product warranties and adjust the warranty percentage and accrued warranty reserve for actual experience as appropriate.

Costs associated with restructuring activities other than those activities covered by SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, or that involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination, are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. Costs associated with such activities are recorded as restructuring costs in the consolidated statements of income when the liability is incurred. |
During 2003, we began implementing a manufacturing capacity rationalization at our P&H Mining Equipment Milwaukee location that reduced factory space by 350,000 square feet and resulted in a facility that is more efficient. The rationalization should be completed in 2004 and is expected to result in savings greater than the cash costs to implement. The total expected costs for this rationalization are estimated at $2.8 million. |
During 2003, Joy Mining Machinery began implementing a manufacturing capacity rationalization plan for North America. Total costs for the Joy North American manufacturing capacity rationalization are estimated at $3.9 million. Included in this amount is $2.3 million for one-time termination benefits for an estimated 132 employees, $0.7 million for abandoned assets, and $0.9 million for other associated costs. Also during 2003, Joy Mining Machinery began implementing a manufacturing capacity rationalization plan for the United Kingdom and Australia. The total costs for the United Kingdom manufacturing capacity rationalization are estimated at $1.6 million, almost entirely for one-time termination benefits for 26 employees. The total costs for the Australian manufacturing capacity rationalization are estimated at $0.2 million, almost entirely for one-time termination benefits for 27 employees. |
Below is a summary of the activity related to restructuring costs recorded pursuant to SFAS No. 144 and SFAS No.146. |

Reorganization items include income, expense and loss that were realized or incurred as a result of our reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

On July 14, 2004, we voluntarily contributed $88.0 million to our U.S. qualified pension plan. |
At July 31, 2004, we had two reportable segments: Underground Mining Machinery and Surface Mining Equipment. Operating income (loss) of the segments does not include interest income (expense) or provision (benefit) for income taxes. There are no significant intersegment sales. Segment total assets are those used in our operations in each segment. Corporate assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, deferred financing costs and deferred income taxes. |

In December 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act) introduced a prescription drug benefit under Medicare, as well as a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans. In May 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 106-2, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. We are a sponsor of postretirement health care plans that provide prescription drug benefits. In accordance with this FSP, any measures of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation or net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the financial statements or accompanying notes do not reflect the effects of the Act on the plans. FSP-106-2 became effective during the third quarter of 2004. We are currently evaluating the impact of this FSP on our consolidated financial statements. |
The following tables present condensed consolidated financial information for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2004 and August 2, 2003 for: (a) the Company; (b) on a combined basis, the guarantors of the Credit Agreement and Senior Subordinated Note Indentures, which include substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries (Subsidiary Guarantors); and (c) on a combined basis, the non-guarantors, which include all of our foreign subsidiaries (Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries). Separate financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented because the guarantors are unconditionally, jointly, and severally liable under the guarantees, and we believe such separate statements or disclosures would not be useful to investors |

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including those risks, uncertainties and assumptions described in Item 5 Other Information Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Factors in Part II of this report.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 Financial Statements in Part I of this report.
Joy Global Inc. is a worldwide leader in high-productivity mining solutions. Joy Global manufactures, markets and distributes original equipment and aftermarket parts and services both the underground and surface mining industries through two business segments, Joy Mining Machinery and P&H Mining Equipment.
Strong commodity markets that benefited the first half of the year continued during the third quarter. Demand for coal, copper and iron ore continued to be strong, coal stockpiles remained low, and coal prices increased.
Customer orders for underground mining machinery were especially strong in the third quarter, with substantial increases over the levels of the third quarter of 2003. Original equipment orders from coal customers in the United States, Australia and China were particularly strong. In addition, both segments continued to experience increases in aftermarket orders.
Revenues for the quarter were up in all aspects of our businesses but were particularly strong in original equipment for underground mining. Gross margins improved slightly during the quarter and were helped by higher operating levels and the benefits of cost savings initiatives and hurt by a higher percentage of original equipment sales in the product mix and higher raw material and employee fringe benefit costs. Earnings again benefited from foreign currency translation effects.
The Company also continued to generate cash and elected during the quarter to pre-fund domestic pension plans by $88 million. This favorable cash generation allows the Company several opportunities including, but not limited to, appropriate acquisitions, dividend distributions to shareholders, and potential repurchases of our publicly traded common stock and bonds.

The increase in net sales for underground mining machinery in the third quarter was the result of increased original equipment sales outside the United States and foreign currency translation benefits from sales outside the United States. Original equipment sales included shipments of armored face conveyors and longwall shearers into China as that market continues to increase the use of western technology and shipments of a substantial portion of a roof support system into the United Kingdom. Aftermarket sales increased in the United States and remained substantially flat outside of the United States after eliminating the currency translation benefits. Aftermarket sales during the quarter benefited from increased coal activity in the United States as compared to the depressed levels during the third quarter last year.
Increased original equipment sales of surface mining equipment related primarily to sales into copper markets, although sales to iron ore and coal markets also contributed to the increase. An increase in percentage-of-completion sales of a dragline and in original equipment sales in Australia and used equipment sales in both Russia and Zambia contributed to the overall increase. The demand for copper, iron ore and oil sands favorably impacted aftermarket parts and service sales. Our United States, South America, Australia and South Africa regions all experienced increases in aftermarket product and service sales, principally due to the increase in demand for copper. Our Canada region experienced an increase in aftermarket product sales. Service revenues in Canada for the quarter were lower because the third quarter last year included multiple rebuilds that were not repeated this year.

The improvement in operating income for underground mining machinery resulted from higher sales volumes, improved manufacturing absorption, and the completion in the second quarter of amortization charges associated with business information systems. These items were partially offset by increases in steel costs and variable selling expenses and higher performance based compensation accruals as compared to the third quarter of 2003.
The improvement in operating income for surface mining equipment was due to higher sales volumes, improved manufacturing absorption, continued cost controls, a decrease in our fresh-start amortization, and a more favorable sales mix of proprietary parts versus non-proprietary parts. These improvements were offset slightly by an increases in steel costs and performance based compensation accruals.
The increase in corporate charges relates primarily to an increase in accruals for performance based compensation.
Product Development, Selling and Administrative Expense
Product development, selling and administrative expense totaled $70.6 million, or 18.5% of sales, in the quarter as compared to $60.0 million, or 19.9% of sales, in the third quarter of 2003. The increase was attributable to higher variable selling expenses related to increased business activity during the quarter, higher research and development, pension and performance based compensation costs quarteroverquarter, severance payments, and the foreign exchange impact on expenses. Offsetting these increases was lower amortization expense associated with adjustments to deferred tax assets that reduced intangible assets at the end of 2003 and the benefits in 2004 from prior year restructuring activities.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2004 increased to $9.4 million as compared to $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2003. On a consolidated basis, these income tax provisions represented effective income tax rates for the 2004 and 2003 third quarters of 37% and 33%, respectively. On a recurring basis, the principal factors affecting the income tax provisions were changes in the year-over-year global mix of earnings which were partially offset by the ability in 2004 to recognize certain Australian tax losses due to the restructuring of our Australian subsidiaries that occurred in the latter part of 2003.
Cash taxes paid in the third quarter of 2004 were $2.1 million compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2003. This increase is attributable to changes in the year-over-year global mix of earnings and the timing of the payment during the quarter of estimated taxes by the Companys non-domestic affiliates, offset in part by savings from the restructuring of our Australian subsidiaries completed in the latter part of 2003.

The increase in net sales for underground mining machinery in the first nine months was the result of increased shipments of both original equipment and aftermarket products and foreign currency translation benefits. Markets for both original equipment and aftermarket products continued to reflect the increased demand that began in the first quarter of 2004. Increases in sales of continuous miners in South Africa and armored face conveyors into China during the first nine months of 2004 and increases in continuous miner and shuttle car shipments in the United States reflected increased activities as a result of strengthening coal prices. In Australia, increased shipments of roof supports, armored face conveyors and longwall shearers more than offset the reduction in the shipments of continuous miners. Increased coal activity in the United States resulted in strong aftermarket sales while aftermarket shipments were substantially flat outside the United States after eliminating currency translation benefits.
The increase in our original equipment sales for surface mining equipment was primarily due to increases in percentage-of-completion sales of a dragline and in original equipment sales in Australia and used equipment sales in both Russia and Zambia. These increases were partially offset by decreases in original equipment sales in both North and South America primarily due to the timing of revenue recognition. The demand for copper and coal favorably impacted aftermarket parts and service sales. Our United States, South America and South Africa regions had significant increases in aftermarket product and service sales. Aftermarket service sales increased in Australia due to the erection of a dragline.

The improvement in operating income for underground mining machinery resulted from higher sales volumes, improved manufacturing absorption, and the elimination during the second quarter of amortization charges associated with business information systems. These items were partially offset by increases in steel costs and variable selling expenses and higher performance based compensation accruals as compared to the nine-month period in 2003.
The improvement in operating income for surface mining equipment was due to higher sales volumes in the United States, South America, Australia, South Africa and the United Kingdom, favorable manufacturing absorption, continued cost controls, and a decrease in restructuring charges. These favorable items were slightly offset by unfavorable purchase price variances associated with high steel costs and surcharges and an increase in accruals for performance based compensation.
The increase in corporate charges relate primarily to an increase in the accruals for performance based compensation.
Product Development, Selling and Administrative Expense
Product development, selling and administrative expense totaled $202.8 million, or 20.2% of sales, for the first nine months of 2004, as compared to $175.5 million, or 20.9% of sales, for the first nine months last year. The increase in product development, selling and administrative expense was attributable to higher sales expenses related to increased business activity during 2004, higher research and development and performance based compensation costs yearoveryear, severance payments, and the foreign exchange impact on expenses. Offsetting these increases were lower amortization expenses associated with adjustments to deferred tax assets that reduced intangible assets at the end of 2003 and benefits in 2004 from prio year restructuring activities.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the ninemonth period increased to $11.4 million as compared to $2.5 million for the first nine months of 2003. On a consolidated basis, these income tax provisions represented effective income tax rates for the 2004 and 2003 periods of 24% and 43%, respectively. On a recurring basis, the principal factors affecting the income tax provisions were changes in the year-over-year global mix of earnings and the ability in 2004 to recognize certain Australian tax losses due to the restructuring of our Australian subsidiaries that occurred in the latter part of 2003. Additionally, income tax expense for the nine months of 2004 was also impacted by the reversal of approximately $6.3 million of deferred income tax liabilities previously recorded on certain unappropriated earnings of a foreign subsidiary. Upon the completion of a corporate restructuring, the deferred income tax liability was deemed no longer required and was reversed, with the resulting income tax benefit recognized as a discreet item. Excluding the impact of this deferred tax reversal, the consolidated effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2004 would have been approximately 37%.
Cash taxes paid in the first nine months of 2004 were $10.7 million compared to $14.2 million paid for the first nine months of 2003. This decrease in cash taxes paid was primarily due to the restructuring of our Australian subsidiaries in the latter part of 2003 and reduced payments required by foreign affiliates related to prior year estimated taxes.
Bookings and Backlog
Bookings continued their trend upward in both original equipment and aftermarket products and services. During the 2004 third quarter and yeartodate periods, new orders were $531.0 million and $1,409.2 million, respectively, as compared to $272.9 million and $861.1 million for the 2003 third quarter and yeartodate periods, respectively. Both underground and surface mining businesses had increases in new orders compared to a year ago. In addition, both original equipment and aftermarket products of both businesses had more new order bookings during the 2004 third quarter and yeartodate periods than they did a year ago. Both bookings and backlog benefited slightly from sales translated from foreign currencies. Especially encouraging was the level of new orders received for electric mining shovels, continuous miners, roof supports and shuttle cars.
As a result of the strong level of new orders, backlog increased from $252.3 million at the beginning of 2004 to $658.3 million at the end of the third quarter.
Discussion of Cash Flows
At the end of the third quarter, we had $169.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $456.1 million as compared to $148.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $450.9 million at the beginning of the year. Our net debt or total debt net of $169.9 million of cash, at the end of the third quarter was $37.0 million compared to net debt of $59.2 million at the beginning of the year.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operations during the first nine months of 2004 was $1.2 million compared to cash provided by operations of $48.6 million in the first nine months of 2003. The decrease in operating cash flow in 2004 resulted primarily from a $88 million voluntary contribution to our U.S. qualified pension plan and increases in inventory and accounts receivable associated with higher levels of business activity. These items were offset by improved profitability and increases in accounts payables and advance payments during the first nine months of 2004.
Investing Activities
Investing activities during the first nine months of 2004 used $4.2 million compared to a use of cash of $25.0 million during the first nine months of 2003. The decrease in cash used by investing activities resulted primarily from the purchase of equity interest in our Australian subsidiary for $12.3 million in 2003 and a $6.4 million decrease in capital expenditures in 2004 as compared to 2003. We expect to fund capital expenditures in 2004 with operating cash flows and available cash.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities during the first nine months of 2004 was $21.2 million as compared to cash used by financing activities of $12.0 million during the first nine months of 2003. The increase in 2004 resulted from $33.4 million received from the exercise of employee stock options and the $11.9 million reduction of repayments of long-term obligations, offset by $10.1 million of dividends paid and the payment of fees for the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement.
Credit Agreement
During the first quarter of 2004, we announced the amendment and restatement of our revolving credit facility. The amendment extends the term of the facility by three years to October 15, 2008, provides flexibility in the financial covenants, improves the pricing grid, reduces the size of the facility from $250 million to $200 million, and lessens restrictions on cash dividends and restricted payments. The Credit Agreement was further amended during the second quarter to facilitate corporate restructurings.
As of the end of the third quarter, we had $169.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and $129.6 million available for borrowings under the Credit Agreement. During the third quarter of 2004 we made cash contributions to our U.S. pension plans in the amount of $88.0 million. Based upon our current level of operations, we believe that cash on hand, cash flow from operations and available borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be adequate to meet our anticipated future cash requirements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We lease various assets under operating leases. The aggregate payments under operating leases as of the end of the third quarter are disclosed below in the table of Disclosures about Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments. No significant changes to lease commitments have occurred since the end of the third quarter. We have no other off-balance sheet arrangements.

Market conditions in most of the commodity markets served by our customers remain robust. Coal markets in the United States continue to strengthen in both pricing and demand. Higher spot coal prices are expected over time to be reflected in higher prices in supply contracts. Demand for coal is being positively affected by continued high natural gas prices, reduced imports of coal into the United States from South America, and increases in exports of metallurgical coal from the United States Coal producers in the United States are increasing their production levels and capital spending plans. The increase in production levels is primarily occurring in existing mine operations, which we believe is leading to the increasing demand for replacement equipment as operators drive for more production from the same reserves.
The international coal markets continue to be strong with rising prices for both thermal and metallurgical coal. Capacity levels in port facilities have resulted in shipping constraints in both South Africa and Australia. China continues to take steps in the long-term to convert their underground coal industry to high productivity mining methods. Efforts by the Chinese banking regulators to reduce investment in areas such as steel and real estate while encouraging investments in power plants, railroads, and coal should reduce the risk of capital availability and be a positive contributor to this conversion. Joy is engaged in a number of discussions with existing and new mining companies in China and anticipates receiving orders from certain of the new mining companies prior to the end of 2004. We continue to believe we will experience solid, long-term, double-digit growth in China, both for our underground mining machinery and our aftermarket parts and service activities.
Markets served by P&H in surface mining are strong across the board. Copper, the largest of these markets, continues to enjoy strong pricing. Copper producers are increasing production at a number of mines and developing plans and ordering equipment for new mines. Although new original equipment orders were limited in the third quarter, interest remains high, particularly in copper and the oil sands. We expect to receive a number of additional shovel orders before the end of 2004. As with Joy on the underground side of our business, order books are filling well into 2005.
Several factors temper our outlook. We believe that the current increases in purchases for mining equipment and services will be affected by our customers efforts to constrain their production and capital spending. As we increase our production to meet the increased demand for mining equipment, our challenge is to manage our working capital and the other aspects of our business so that we meet the needs of our customers while maximizing returns to shareholders. We will need to continue to control pension and health care costs. Our ability to grow revenues is constrained by the capacity of our plants, our ability to supplement that capacity with outside sources, and our success in securing critical supplies such as steel and copper. The positive effects we are seeing on our business as a result of higher customer production and capital spending levels could be offset by customer restraints on production and capital spending, capacity limitations at our facilities, and continuing tight steel supplies.
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate, on an ongoing basis, our estimates and judgments, including those related to bad debts, excess inventory, warranty, intangible assets, income taxes, and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
We believe our accounting policies for revenue recognition, inventories, intangible assets, accrued warranties, pension and postretirement benefits and costs, and income taxes are the ones that most frequently require us to make estimates and judgments, and therefore are critical to the understanding of our results of operations. See Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 2003 for a discussion of these policies. There were no material changes to these policies during the nine months of 2004.
As more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 2003, we are exposed to various types of market risks, primarily foreign currency risks. We monitor our risks in this area on a continuous basis and generally enter into forward foreign currency contracts to minimize these exposures for periods of less than one year. We do not engage in speculation in our derivative strategies. Gains and losses from foreign currency contract activities are offset by changes in the underlying costs of the transactions being hedged.
We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors.
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("the Act")) were effective as the end of the second quarter, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) of the Act.
There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation.
See Item 3 Legal Proceedings of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 1, 2003 and Item 1 Legal Proceedings of Part II of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 1, 2004. |
On May 24, 2004, the court in the Kling matter granted our motion to dismiss the Company plan and Board committee and denied our motion to dismiss the Company and our former directors from this action. |
On August 6, 2004, The International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes declined to accept jurisdiction of the arbitration proceedings initiated by Joy Mining Machinery Limited (Joy MM) against The General Organization for Industrial and Mining Projects (IMC) to resolve certain disputes arising under an agreement entered into in 1998 between Joy MM and IMC relating to underground mining equipment for the Abu Tartur project in Egypt. Legal proceedings commenced in Egypt in late 2002 by IMC against Joy MM are still pending. The Company is considering its options in this matter. |

Forward-looking statements are predictions and generally can be identified by use of statements that include phrases such as believe, expect,anticipate, intend, plan, foresee, or other words or phrases of similar import. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated. In addition to any factors that may accompany forward-looking statements, factors that could materially affect actual results include the following. |
Our principal businesses involve designing, manufacturing, marketing and servicing large, complex machines. Significant periods of time are necessary to design and build these machines. Large amounts of capital must be devoted by our customers to purchase these machines and to finance the mines that use them. Our success in obtaining and managing a relatively small number of sales opportunities, including our success in securing payment for such sales and meeting the requirements of warranties and guarantees associated with such sales, can affect our financial performance. In addition, many mines are located in undeveloped or developing economies where business conditions are less predictable. In recent years, up to 52% of our total sales occurred outside the United States. |
Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated include: |
| Factors affecting customers purchases of new equipment, rebuilds, parts and services such as: production capacity, stockpiles, and production and consumption rates of coal, copper, iron, gold, oil and other ores and minerals; the cash flows of customers; the cost and availability of financing to customers and the ability of customers to obtain regulatory approval for investments in mining projects; consolidations among customers; the effects of rising energy costs on customer operations; work stoppages at customers or providers of transportation; and the timing, severity and duration of customer buying cycles. |
| Factors affecting our ability to capture available sales opportunities, including: customers perceptions of the quality and value of our products and services as compared to competitors products and services; customers perceptions of our financial health and stability as compared to our competitors; our ability to obtain adequate supplies of raw materials such as heavy plate and specialty steels; and the availability of manufacturing capacity at our factories. |
| Factors affecting our ability to successfully manage the sales we obtain, such as: the accuracy of our cost and time estimates; the adequacy of our cost and control systems; and our success in delivering products and completing service projects on time and within budget; our success in recruiting and retaining managers and key employees; wage stability and cooperative labor relations; plant capacity and utilization; increases in the costs and constraints on the supply of major purchased items such as steel can adversely affect profits and revenues; and whether acquisitions are assimilated and divestitures completed without notable surprises or unexpected difficulties. |
| Factors affecting general business levels, such as: political and economic turmoil in major markets such as the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and the Pacific Rim, South Africa, Australia and Chile; environmental and trade regulations; and the stability and ease of exchange of currencies. |
