HUBBELL INCORPORATED – Form 10-Q – 4
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
NOTE 1 Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hubbell Incorporated (“Hubbell”, the “Company”, “registrant”, “we”, “our” or “us”, which references shall include its divisions and subsidiaries) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Hubbell Incorporated Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amendment to provide a consistent definition of fair value and to ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This amendment changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. This amendment was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2012 and it did not have a material impact to its financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB amended the guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income. The amended guidance requires an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive statements. Although the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income. The Company elected to report other comprehensive income and its components in a separate statement of comprehensive income and adopted the amendment effective January 1, 2012.
In December 2011, the FASB amended the disclosure requirements regarding offsetting assets and liabilities of derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements, reverse sale and repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. The enhanced disclosures will require entities to provide both gross and net information for these assets and liabilities. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company does not anticipate that this amendment will have a material impact on its financial statements.
NOTE 2 Business Acquisitions
During the second quarter of 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of the majority of the net assets of TayMac Corporation (“TayMac”) for $42.1 million, net of cash received. TayMac designs and sells enclosures and boxes. This acquisition has been added to the Electrical segment.
This acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination and has resulted in the recognition of intangible assets of $18.4 million and goodwill of $15.8 million. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:
|
Tangible assets acquired |

|
|
TOTAL CASH CONSIDERATION |
$ |
42.1 |
|
The $18.4 million of intangible assets consists primarily of customer relationships, patents and tradenames that are expected to be amortized over periods ranging between 15 and 20 years. The goodwill relates to a number of factors built into the purchase price, including the future earnings and cash flow potential of the business as well as the complementary strategic fit and resulting synergies it brings to the Company’s existing operations. All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
During the first quarter of 2012 the Company completed the acquisition of Cableform Inc. (“Cableform”) for $10.9 million, net of cash received. Cableform designs and manufactures motor controls principally for the steel and mining industries. The acquisition has been added to the Electrical segment and has resulted in the recognition of intangible assets of $4.5 million and goodwill of $4.5 million. The $4.5 million of intangible assets consists primarily of customer relationships and tradenames that are expected to be amortized over 20 years. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of operations of the acquired businesses from their respective dates of acquisition. Net sales and earnings related to these acquisitions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were not significant to the consolidated results. Pro forma information related to these acquisitions has not been included because the impact to the Company’s consolidated results of operations was not material.

BALANCE JUNE 30, 2012 |
$ |
473.6 |
$ |
273.1 |
|
$ |
746.7 |
|
In 2012, the Company completed the acquisitions of TayMac and Cableform for $42.1 million and $10.9 million, respectively, net of cash received. These acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations and have resulted in the recognition of $20.3 million of goodwill. See also Note 2 – Business Acquisitions.
The Company performs its goodwill impairment testing as of April 1st of each year, unless circumstances dictate the need for more frequent assessments. Goodwill impairment testing involves a two step process. Step 1 compares the fair value of the Company’s reporting units to their carrying values. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, no further analysis is necessary. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, Step 2 must be completed to quantify the amount of impairment. In 2011, the FASB amended its goodwill guidance by providing entities an option to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. The Company elected to bypass the qualitative assessment option for its 2012 goodwill impairment testing and proceeded directly to Step 1 of the two step impairment process; however the Company may elect to use the qualitative assessment option in future years.
Goodwill impairment testing requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units and determining the fair value of each reporting unit. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. The Company uses internal discounted cash flow estimates to determine fair value. These cash flow estimates are derived from historical experience and future long-term business plans and the application of an appropriate discount rate. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit. The Company’s estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units is compared to the Company’s market capitalization on the valuation date to assess its reasonableness.
HUBBELL INCORPORATED – Form 10-Q – 6
As of April 1, 2012, the impairment testing resulted in implied fair values for each reporting unit that exceeded the reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill. The Company did not have any reporting units at risk of failing Step 1 of the impairment test as the excess of the estimated fair value over carrying value (expressed as a percentage of carrying value) ranged from approximately 75% to approximately 320% for the respective reporting units. Additionally, the Company did not have any reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts.

NOTE 8 Earnings Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and participating securities. Restricted stock granted by the Company is considered a participating security since it contains a non-forfeitable right to dividends.
The following table sets forth the computation of earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (in millions, except per share amounts):

Employer Contributions
The Company anticipates making required contributions of approximately $2.6 million to its foreign pension plans during 2012, of which $1.3 million has been contributed through June 30, 2012. In addition, the Company may make a voluntary contribution to its foreign pension plans in 2012. Although not required under the Pension Protection Act of 2006, the Company made a $5.0 million voluntary contribution to its qualified domestic benefit pension plans during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and intends to make additional contributions during the remainder of the year.
NOTE 10 Guarantees
The Company accrues for costs associated with guarantees when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The most likely costs to be incurred are accrued based on an evaluation of currently available facts and, where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, the minimum is accrued.
The Company records a liability equal to the fair value of guarantees in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in accordance with the guarantees accounting guidance. As of June 30, 2012, the fair value and maximum potential payment related to the Company’s guarantees were not material.
The Company offers product warranties which cover potential defects on most of its products. These warranties primarily apply to products that are properly installed, maintained and used for their intended purpose. The Company accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. Estimated warranty expenses, recorded in cost of goods sold, are based upon historical information such as past experience, product failure rates, or the number of units to be repaired or replaced. Adjustments are made to the product warranty accrual as claims are incurred, additional information becomes known or as historical experience indicates.
Changes in the accrual for product warranties during the six months ended June 30, 2012 are set forth below (in millions):

NOTE 11 Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The FASB fair value measurement guidance established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three broad levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring a company to develop its own assumptions
The following table shows, by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (in millions):

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the Level 2 fair values were as follows:
Forward exchange contracts – The fair value of forward exchange contracts were based on quoted forward foreign exchange prices at the reporting date.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 there were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities in or out of Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and as of December 31, 2011, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities that fell within the Level 3 hierarchy.
Investments
At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had $48.2 million and $50.8 million, respectively, of municipal bonds classified as available-for-sale securities. The Company also had $5.5 million and $4.0 million of trading securities at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. These investments are carried on the balance sheet at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses associated with available-for-sale securities are reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, while unrealized gains and losses associated with trading securities are reflected in the results of operations.
Deferred compensation plans
The Company offers certain employees the opportunity to participate in non-qualified deferred compensation plans. A participant’s deferrals are invested in a variety of participant-directed debt and equity mutual funds that are classified as trading securities. During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company purchased $1.3 and $1.4 million, respectively, of trading securities related to these deferred compensation plans. The unrealized gains and losses associated with these trading securities are directly offset by the changes in the fair value of the underlying deferred compensation plan obligation.
HUBBELL INCORPORATED – Form 10-Q – 10
Derivatives
In order to limit financial risk in the management of its assets, liabilities and debt, the Company may use derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency hedges, commodity hedges, interest rate hedges and interest rate swaps. All derivative financial instruments are matched with an existing Company asset, liability or proposed transaction. Market value gains or losses on the derivative financial instrument are recognized in income when the effects of the related price changes of the underlying asset or liability are recognized in income.

Forward exchange contracts
In 2012 and 2011, the Company entered into a series of forward exchange contracts to purchase U.S. dollars in order to hedge its exposure to fluctuating rates of exchange on anticipated inventory purchases by one of its Canadian subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had 18 individual forward exchange contracts for $1.0 million each, which have various expiration dates through June 2013. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with the accounting guidance for derivatives.
Interest rate locks
Prior to the issuance of long-term notes in 2010 and 2008, the Company entered into forward interest rate locks to hedge its exposure to fluctuations in treasury rates. The 2010 interest rate lock resulted in a $1.6 million loss while the 2008 interest rate lock resulted in a $1.2 million gain. These amounts were recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and are being amortized over the life of the respective notes. The amortization associated with these interest rate locks is reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Interest expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. The amortization reclassification for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was not material. As of both June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 there was $0.4 million of net unamortized losses reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

ITEM 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Executive Overview of the Business
The Company is primarily engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of quality electrical and electronic products for a broad range of non-residential and residential construction, industrial and utility applications. Products are either sourced complete, manufactured or assembled by subsidiaries in the United States, Canada, Switzerland, Puerto Rico, China, Mexico, Italy, the United Kingdom, Brazil and Australia. The Company also participates in joint ventures in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and maintains offices in India, Singapore, China, Mexico, South Korea and countries in the Middle East. The Company employs approximately 14,000 individuals worldwide.
The Company’s reporting segments consist of the Electrical segment (comprised of electrical systems products and lighting products) and the Power segment. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are included under “Segment Results” within this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
The Company is focused on growing profits and delivering attractive returns to our shareholders by executing a business plan focused on the following key initiatives: revenue growth, price realization and productivity improvements.
As part of our revenue growth initiative, we remain focused on expanding market share through new product introductions and more effective utilization of sales and marketing efforts across the organization. In addition, we continue to assess opportunities to expand sales through acquisitions of businesses that fill product line gaps or allow for expansion into new markets.
Price realization is a key area of focus for our company. Material costs are approximately two-thirds of our cost of goods sold therefore volatility in this area can impact profitability significantly. As a result, our goal is to achieve parity between pricing and commodity cost increases.
Productivity improvements are also an important initiative for the Company. These programs impact virtually all functional areas within the company by reducing or eliminating waste and improving processes. We continue to expand our efforts surrounding global product and component sourcing and supplier cost reduction programs. Value engineering efforts, product transfers and the use of lean process improvement techniques are expected to increase manufacturing efficiency. In addition, we continue to build upon the benefits of our enterprise resource planning system across all functions and have also implemented a sustainability program across the organization. Our goal is to have enough productivity programs to pay for investments in key growth areas as well as offset other inflationary cost increases.

Net Sales
Net sales of $778.4 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased 10% compared to the second quarter of 2011 due to higher organic volume, acquisitions and price realization partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation. Compared to the second quarter of 2011, organic volume increased net sales by approximately eight percentage points due to improved market conditions and new product growth. Additionally, acquisitions and price realization added two and one percentage points, respectively, to net sales. Foreign currency translation reduced net sales by one percentage point.
Cost of goods sold
As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased to 66.6% in the second quarter of 2012 compared to 67.6% in the second quarter of 2011 due to the impact of price realization and lower commodity costs.
Gross Profit
The consolidated gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2012 was 33.4% compared to 32.4% in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in gross profit margin was due to price realization, slightly lower commodity costs and leveraging the higher sales volume. In addition, productivity essentially offset inflationary cost increases.

Selling & Administrative Expenses (“S&A”)
S&A expenses in the second quarter of 2012 were $135.3 million compared to $124.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. As a percentage of net sales, S&A expenses declined to 17.4% in the second quarter of 2012 compared to 17.6% in the second quarter of 2011 due to leveraging the higher sales volume partially offset by higher wage and benefit costs.
Total Other Expense
Total other expense was $8.4 million in the second quarter of 2012 compared to $9.2 million in the second quarter of 2011. This $0.8 million decrease is primarily due to both net foreign currency transaction losses and net interest expense being lower in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2012 increased to 32.8% from 31.5% in the second quarter of 2011. This increase is primarily due to the federal research and development tax credit not being extended for 2012 and a higher percentage of domestic income in the current year.
Net income attributable to Hubbell and Earnings Per Diluted Share
Net income attributable to Hubbell and earnings per diluted share increased 19% and 21% respectively in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011. These increases are due to higher operating income partially offset by a higher effective tax rate. In addition, earnings per diluted share reflect a decrease in the average number of shares outstanding in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011.

Net sales in the Power segment increased 14% in the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of 2011. Organic volume increased net sales by approximately thirteen percentage points due to higher net sales of transmission and distribution products. Price realization added two percentage points to net sales. Foreign currency translation reduced net sales by one percentage point.
Operating income increased 31% to $81.2 million and operating margin increased 230 basis points to 17.6% in the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of 2011. The increase in operating income and margin was due to higher volume, productivity and price realization partially offset by cost increases including commodities, wages and benefits.
Outlook
For 2012, we expect our overall net sales to increase by six to eight percent compared to 2011. We expect six to eight percent growth in our Electrical segment and seven to nine percent growth in our Power segment. The non-residential market is expected to grow slightly as strong demand from retrofit and relighting projects is expected to be partially offset by weakness in the new construction market. The utility market is expected to continue to grow with increases anticipated for both our transmission and distribution products. The industrial market is also expected to continue to expand but at a slower rate than in recent quarters. For the residential market, we anticipate continued improvement in 2012 driven by multi-family and renovation markets. Acquisitions are expected to contribute two percentage points of the overall net sales increase. We expect foreign currency translation to have an unfavorable impact on net sales of approximately one percentage point.
We plan to continue to work on productivity initiatives, including improved sourcing, product redesign and lean projects focused on factory efficiency. We anticipate cost increases from pension, healthcare and other inflationary costs. We plan to continue to invest in people and resources to support our growth initiatives. Overall we expect to expand our annual operating margin by at least 50 basis points in 2012 compared to 2011. Additionally, we expect our 2012 tax rate to increase to approximately 32.5% compared to 30.7% for 2011 primarily due to the expiration of the federal research and development tax credit and a higher mix of domestic income. We expect to increase our earnings in 2012 through higher sales, careful management of pricing relative to commodity costs and by continuing our productivity programs.
In 2012, we anticipate generating free cash flow approximately equal to net income. Finally, with our strong financial position, we expect to continue to evaluate and pursue additional acquisitions to add to our portfolio.

$ |
(25.0 |

$ |
(10.3 |
) |
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased from the comparable period in 2011 primarily due to a greater use of cash for working capital, higher tax payments and higher levels of pension funding, partially offset by higher net income. Cash used for working capital was $76.1 million and $50.4 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This increase is primarily due to increased levels of inventory and higher disbursements of accounts payable partially offset by higher collections of accounts receivable. The higher tax payments are primarily due to reduced bonus depreciation in 2012, while the higher level of pension funding is due to a $5 million voluntary contribution to the Company’s qualified domestic benefit plans.
Investing activities used cash of $65.6 million in the first six months of 2012 compared to cash used of $28.0 million during the comparable period in 2011. This increase is due to higher acquisition investment partially offset by lower capital expenditures. Financing activities used cash of $63.1 million in the first six months of 2012 compared to $106.5 million of cash used during the comparable period of 2011 primarily as a result of lower spending on the repurchase of common shares.
Investments in the Business
Investments in our business include both expenditures required to maintain the operation of our equipment and facilities as well as cash outlays in support of our strategic initiatives. During the first six months of 2012, we used cash of $21 million for capital expenditures, a decrease of $10.1 million from the comparable period of 2011. During the first six months of 2011, the Company purchased a facility in Switzerland for approximately $13 million that had previously been leased.
During the first six months of 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of Taymac for $42.1 million and Cableform for $10.9 million. The Company continues to assess opportunities to expand sales through acquisitions of businesses that fill product gaps or allow for expansion into new markets. See also Note 2-Business Acquisitions in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2011, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program and authorized the repurchase of up to $200 million of Class A and Class B Common Stock. During 2012, the Company has spent $42.1 million on the repurchase of common shares. As of June 30, 2012, $157.9 million remains authorized for future repurchases under this program. Depending upon numerous factors, including market conditions and alternative uses of cash, we may conduct discretionary repurchases through open market and privately negotiated transactions during our normal trading windows.
Debt to Capital
At June 30, 2012, the Company had $596.5 million of senior long-term notes, net of unamortized discount. These long-term fixed-rate notes, with amounts of $300 million due in both 2018 and 2022, respectively, are callable with a make whole provision and are only subject to accelerated payment prior to maturity if we fail to meet certain non-financial covenants, all of which were met at June 30, 2012.
The Company has a credit agreement for a 6.0 million Brazilian Real line of credit to fund its Brazilian operations. At June 30, 2012, 0.4 million Brazilian Reais were drawn (equivalent to $0.2 million) and reflected as short-term debt. This line of credit expires in October 2012 and is not subject to annual commitment fees.
Net debt, defined as total debt less cash and investments, is a non-GAAP measure that may not be comparable to definitions used by other companies. We consider net debt to be a useful measure of our financial leverage for evaluating the Company’s ability to meet its funding needs.

HUBBELL INCORPORATED – Form 10-Q – 16
Liquidity
We measure liquidity on the basis of our ability to meet short-term and long-term operational funding needs, fund additional investments, including acquisitions, and make dividend payments to shareholders. Significant factors affecting the management of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities, capital expenditures, cash dividend payments, stock repurchases, access to bank lines of credit and our ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s $500 million revolving credit facility had not been drawn against. The credit facility, which serves as a backup to our commercial paper program, is scheduled to expire in October 2016. The interest rate applicable to borrowing under the credit agreement is generally either the prime rate or a surcharge over LIBOR. The single financial covenant in the $500 million credit facility, which the Company is in compliance with, requires that total debt not exceed 55% of total capitalization. Annual commitment fees to support availability under the credit facility are not material.
Although not the principal source of liquidity, we believe our credit facility is capable of providing significant financing flexibility at reasonable rates of interest. However, in the event of a significant deterioration in the results of our operations or cash flows, leading to deterioration in financial condition, our borrowing costs could increase and/or our ability to borrow could be restricted. We have not entered into any guarantees that could give rise to material unexpected cash requirements.
We have contractual obligations for long-term debt, operating leases, purchase obligations, and certain other long-term liabilities that were summarized in a table of Contractual Obligations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Since December 31, 2011, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations.
Internal cash generation together with currently available cash and investments, available borrowing facilities and credit lines, if needed, are expected to be sufficient to fund operations, the current rate of cash dividends, capital expenditures, and an increase in working capital that would be required to accommodate a higher level of business activity. We actively seek to expand by acquisition as well as through the growth of our current businesses. While a significant acquisition may require additional debt and/or equity financing, we believe that we would be able to obtain additional financing based on our favorable historical earnings performance and strong financial position.
The Company maintains a conservative financial structure to provide the strength and flexibility necessary to achieve its strategic objectives. The 2008 disruption in the credit markets had a significant adverse impact on a number of financial institutions. While the Company’s liquidity was not negatively impacted by this disruption, management will continue to closely monitor the Company’s liquidity and credit markets. Management cannot predict with any certainty the impact to the Company should any future disruptions occur in the credit environment.
Critical Accounting Estimates
A summary of our critical accounting estimates is included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. We are required to make estimates and judgments in the preparation of our financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. We continually review these estimates and their underlying assumptions to ensure they are appropriate for the circumstances. Changes in the estimates and assumptions we use could have a significant impact on our financial results. During the first six months of 2012, there were no significant changes in our estimates and critical accounting policies.

ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the operation of its business, the Company has exposures to fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates, availability of purchased finished goods and raw materials, changes in material prices, foreign sourcing issues, and changes in interest rates. There have been no significant changes in our exposure to these market risks during the first six months of 2012. For a complete discussion of the Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk”, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, each of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recently completed quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
