- Summary: The facts, not speculation about Commodore's finances.
- Keywords: commodore finances
-
-
- This file is from the GEnie Starship. It represents a LOT of hard work.
- It's the facts, not speculation
-
- =========================================================================
-
-
-
- Here's some information about Commodore from public records and SEC
- filings, corporate databases and such. You will note that some of
- the information was updated only after the posting of the final reports
- of the last fiscal year [ending June] and some of it has been updated to
- include the quarterly report released at the end of March.
-
-
- NONE of this is speculation.
-
- Commodore International Limited is the parent company of Commodore
- Business Machines Inc, the people who operate the West Chester facility.
-
- You will see the SEC records which list all owners of Commodore stock
- in excess of 5%. There is only one, Irving Gould. He owns 19-20%.
- Other insiders have very little stock, all things considered, but the
- insider reports are here, too. Medhi Ali earns a higher yearly salary, but
- his 300,000 shares of stock do not even leave him owning 1 percent.
-
- You will see records of the debts, loans and other long term reports and
- history included here. There are analysis statements of record from
- professionals and SEC filings. There's probably more here than you ever
- knew existed, let alone care about. :)
-
- The Prudential loan is already overdue, and even after this length of
- time, Commodore has been unable to raise the cash to pay it off. What
- will be happening over the next week and month will determine the course
- and future of the company and the technology which we love so dearly.
-
- Many experts and industry watchers think only liquidation faces the
- company now. Some hold out some hope that portions of the technology
- could be acquired. If the lenders and creditor force the issue
- before then, there may not even be negotiating room for that much.
-
- I have cited sources of all this information enclosed in headers
- which seperate it marked with: /*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/
-
- Those of you who are number crunchers may enjoy this information.

- AUDITOR: COOPERS & LYBRAND (SOURCE: 10-K)
-
- AUDITOR'S REPORT:
- UNQUALIFIED;EXPLANATION, GOING CONCERN
-
- We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Commodore
- International Limited (a Bahamian corporation) and subsidiaries (the Company)
- as of 30 June 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
- shareholders' deficit and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial
- statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
- responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
- our audit. The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years
- ended 30 June 1992 and 1991 were audited by other auditors. The Company has not
- obtained an updated auditors' report on the consolidated financial statements
- for the years ended 30 June 1992 and 1991.
-
- We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
- standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
- reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
- material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
- supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
- also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
- estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
- statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
- for our report.
-
- The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the
- basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. As discussed in
- notes 1, 4, and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
- experienced a significant decline in sales and incurred a loss of $356 million
- for the year ended 30 June 1993, and had deficit equity of $53 million and
- deficit working capital of $107 million as of 30 June 1993. In addition, the
- Company was in default on various credit agreements and a mortgage loan. While
- the Company is attempting to negotiate appropriate credit terms with suppliers
- and restructure its credit arrangements with institutional lenders to allow the
- Company to continue normal operations, in many of the countries in which the
- Company operates, unlike the United States, the Company may not have the
- ability to seek judicial protection to prevent liquidation while it reorganizes
- its operations. All of these factors raise substantial doubt about the
- Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard
- to these matters are also described in the notes to the consolidated financial
- statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
- result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
-
- Because of the possible material effects of the uncertainty about whether
- the Company will continue as a going concern discussed in the preceding
- paragraph, we are unable to express, and we do not express, an opinion on the
- consolidated financial statements as of 30 June 1993 or for the year then
- ended.

-
- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
- Operations
-
- This review should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
- statements and related notes beginning on page 6 of this annual report.
-
- Basis of Presentation As a result of the significant loss of $356 million
- for fiscal 1993 the Company had deficit equity of $53 million and deficit
- working capital of $107 million as of 30 June 1993. The Company's financial
- position and operating results raise substantial doubts about the Company's
- ability to continue as a going concern. As of 30 June 1993 the Company was in
- default on various credit agreements. See Footnote 1 for further information.
-
- Sales Commodore's net sales decreased 35% in fiscal 1993 to $591 million
- compared with $911 million in fiscal 1992 and $1,047 in fiscal 1991. The
- decline in fiscal 1993 and the later half of fiscal 1992 was due to economic
- softness throughout all major markets, especially Europe, and intense
- competitive pricing pressure.
-
- The Amiga product line accounted for almost three fourths of the total
- sales decline for the year. Approximately half of the Amiga sales decline was
- attributable to unit volume and the other half was attributable to pricing
- declines. Unit sales of Amiga computers were slightly over 800,000 units in
- fiscal 1993 compared with 1 million units in fiscal 1992. Unit sales of Amiga
- computers declined 20% in fiscal 1993 compared with increases of 17% in fiscal
- 1992 and 38% in fiscal 1991. Revenues of the Amiga product line decreased by
- 40% in fiscal 1993 compared with a decline of 1% in fiscal 1992 and an increase
- of 23% in fiscal 1991. The decrease in fiscal 1992 was due to a significant
- decrease in sales of peripherals, such as monitors , and pricing reductions.
- The Amiga product line accounted for 59% of net sales in fiscal 1993 compared
- with 63% in fiscal 1992 and 56% in fiscal 1991.
-
- MS-DOS PC compatible products accounted for 37% of net sales in fiscal 1993
- compared with 24% in fiscal 1992 and 28% in fiscal 1991. Unit sales increased
- 17% in fiscal 1993, but revenues increased only nominally due to competitive
- pricing pressure. In fiscal 1992 unit sales and revenues declined 23% due to a
- discontinuation of low-end PCs. In fiscal 1991 unit sales declined 3% but
- revenues increased 14% due to a shift to high-end products. Due to low
- profitability the Company decided to discontinue the sale of MS-DOS PCs and
- licensed the brand name for PC sales in Europe to another supplier.
-
- C64 products accounted for only 4% of net sales in fiscal 1993 compared
- with 13% in fiscal 1992 and 16% in fiscal 1991. In fiscal 1993 C64 unit sales
- declined to less than 200,000 units compared with 650,000 units in fiscal 1992
- and over 800,000 units in fiscal 1991. Revenues from C64 products decreased
- over 80% in fiscal 1993 and 34% in fiscal 1992 and increased 4% in fiscal 1991.
-
- Geographically, European markets accounted for 84% of net sales in fiscal
- 1993 compared with 88% in 1992 and 84% in 1991. North American sales accounted
- for 10% of sales in fiscal 1993 compared with 8% in 1992 and 11% in 1991.
- Australia/Asia sales accounted for 6% of sales in fiscal 1993 compared with 4%
- in 1992 and 5% in 1991.
-
- The US dollar fluctuated in relation to European currencies during fiscal
- 1993 with a mixed impact on reported sales. The effect of currency movements
- increased reported sales during the first quarter of fiscal 1993 but decreased
- reported sales during the last three quarters. The dollar value of sales for
- fiscal 1993 would have been approximately $14 million higher if prior year
- exchange rates had been in effect. In fiscal 1992 the effect of currency
- movements decreased reported sales during the first two quarters and increased
- reported sales during the fourth quarter, with only a nominal impact on sales
- for the third quarter. The dollar value of sales for fiscal 1992 would have
- been approximately $25 million higher if prior year exchange rates had been in
- effect. In fiscal 1991, the effect of currency movements increased reported
- sales during the first three quarters but decreased reported sales during the
- fourth quarter. The dollar value of sales for fiscal 1991 would have been
- approximately $94 million lower if prior year exchange rates had been in
- effect.
-
- Since a substantial portion of the Company's sales are denominated in
- European currencies, reported U.S. dollar sales will continue to be affected by
- the strengthening or weakening of U.S. dollar versus European currencies. The
- sales in the second quarter of each year reflect the seasonal impact of
- Christmas.
-
- Profitability Gross margin was a loss of $132 million in fiscal 1993
- compared with a profit of $246 million, or 27% of net sales on fiscal 1992 and
- $333 million, or 32% of net sales in fiscal 1991. The loss in fiscal 1993 was
- attributable to the sales decline and to writedowns of inventory, fixed assets
- and other assets, and significant pricing and promotional allowances resulting
- >from severe competitive pricing pressure. The decrease in gross margin in
- fiscal 1992 was due primarily to lower prices for MS-DOS PC compatibles and
- unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In fiscal
- 1991 the gross margin was impacted by favorable effects of foreign currency
- exchange rate fluctuations.
-
- In fiscal 1993 operating expenses included $50 million of restructuring and
- other unusual charges, including severance and costs for early cancellation of
- leases. Excluding these charges operating expenses in fiscal 1993 were $152
- million or 26% of net sales compared with $215 million or 24% of net sales in
- fiscal 1992 and $259 million or 25% of net sales in fiscal 1991. In fiscal
- 1992, operating expenses were tightly controlled and declined 17% compared with
- a sales decline of 13%. In fiscal 1991, operating expenses were also tightly
- controlled and increased only 3% compared with a sales increase of 18%. Selling
- and marketing expenses decreased 39% to $84 million in fiscal 1993 due to a
- reduction in advertising and other selling expenses, compared with $137 million
- in 1992 and $174 million in 1991. General and administrative expenses decreased
- 7% to $49 million in fiscal 1993, compared with $52 million in 1992 and $54
- million in 1991. Research and development expenses decreased 24% to $19 million
- in fiscal 1993 compared with $26 million in 1992 and $31 million in 1991.
-
- Net interest expense was $18 million in fiscal 1993 compared with $15
- million in 1992 and 1991. Other expense was $4 million in fiscal 1993 and $6
- million in 1991. In fiscal 1992 other income was $9 million and included $14
- million in net gains from the sale of certain properties and investments
- reduced by other expenses of $5 million.
-
- In fiscal 1993 the net loss for the year of $356 million, or $10.78 per
- share, included $237 million for asset writedowns, restructuring costs and
- special pricing and promotional allowances. In fiscal 1992 net income of $28
- million, $0.82 per share, included an income tax benefit of $2 million. In
- fiscal 1991 pre-tax income was $52 million and the income tax benefit was $5
- million due to the reduction of certain income tax accruals no longer needed to
- meet certain tax contingencies. In fiscal 1991 income before extraordinary item
- was $57 million or $1.73 per share and there was an extraordinary charge of $9
- million, or $0.28 per share, for the court settlement of litigation. Net income
- for fiscal 1991 was $48 million or $1.45 per share.
-
- Liquidity and Capital Resources In fiscal 1993 the Company's cash and cash
- equivalents decreased by $56 million to $10 million as of 30 June 1993 compared
- with an increase of $1 million in fiscal 1992. The major activities were as
- follows (in millions): (Table Follows)
-
- Despite the net loss of $356 million in fiscal 1993, the cash used for
- operations was only $16 million due primarily to decreases of over $120 million
- each for accounts receivable and inventories and non-cash charges of over $50
- million for depreciation and amortization and writedown of long-term assets. In
- fiscal 1992 net income of $28 million accounted for the major portion of the
- cash provided from operations of $32 million.
-
- In fiscal 1993 capital expenditures accounted for $20 million of the total
- $26 million cash used for investing activities. The major additions included a
- new building in Germany which was under construction in 1992, additional
- manufacturing equipment and tooling for new products. In fiscal 1992 capital
- expenditures were $25 million but there was significant cash received from
- property dispositions resulting in cash used for investing activities of $12
- million.
-
- In fiscal 1993 long-term debt payments were $32 million, including $25
- million to two institutional lenders. In fiscal 1992 long-term debt payments
- were $93 million, including $66 million of seven-year Deutsche Mark debentures
- which had matured and $25 million to two institutional lenders. In fiscal 1993
- net new borrowings were $20 million (including $17 million from a company
- controlled by the chairman of Commodore) resulting in net cash used for
- financing activities of $12 million. In fiscal 1992 new borrowings, primarily
- short-term bank borrowings, offset a significant amount of the repayments
- resulting in net cash used for financing activities of $19 million.
-
- As of 30 June 1993 short-term debt included $50 million from various banks
- in 18 countries and $7.5 million from a company controlled by the chairman of
- Commodore. The bank loans are not collateralized and as of 30 June 1993 there
- were no unused short-term lines of credit available.
-
- As of 30 June 1993 the Company was in default under the provisions of
- certain long-term collateralized and other obligations totaling $51.7 million.
- For financial statement purposes these amounts have been classified as current
- debt.
-
- As of 30 June 1993 the Company had total current assets of $194 million
- with total current debt of $114 million, and accounts payable and accrued
- liabilities of $187 million, resulting in a deficit working capital of $107
- million. As a result of the deficit the Company has found it necessary to delay
- payments to creditors. A successful debt restructuring is critical to the
- Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is attempting to
- negotiate appropriate credit terms with suppliers who have restricted the
- Company's credit and intends to work out a restructuring plan with its
- creditors, including those which have instituted legal action against the
- Company, to allow the Company to continue normal operations. However, there can
- be no assurance that a successful debt restructuring will be achieved.

-
- 30 June 1993
-
- 1. Basis of Presentation-For the fiscal year ended 30 June 1993 the Company
- experienced a 35% sales decline and a net loss of $356.5 million. The loss
- included $237 million for asset writedowns, restructuring costs and special
- pricing and promotional allowances, of which $50 million is included in
- operating expenses and the remaining balance is included in cost of sales. The
- loss has resulted in deficit equity of $53 million and deficit working capital
- of $107 million as of 30 June 1993.
-
- The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the
- basis of accounting principles applicable to a "going concern", which
- contemplates continuity of the Company's operations and the realization of its
- assets and the payment of its liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
- However, the Company's financial position and operating results raise
- substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
- The financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be required
- should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
-
- The Company has addressed its current financial difficulties by
- restructuring the business in a number of ways including eliminating
- unprofitable product lines to focus exclusively on Amiga products. A new Amiga
- CD(32) was launched in September 1993 and the plan is dependent upon
- significant future sales of this product. With the restructuring actions taken
- in fiscal 1993 it is expected that the total expenses for fiscal 1994 will be
- significantly below fiscal 1993.
-
- The Company is attempting to negotiate appropriate credit terms with
- suppliers who have restricted the Company's credit and intends to work out a
- restructuring plan with its creditors, including those which have instituted
- legal action against the Company, to allow the Company to continue normal
- operations. However, there can be no assurance that a successful debt
- restructuring will be achieved.
-
- The Company's long-term liquidity needs cannot reasonably be determined at
- this time principally because these needs are dependent, in large part, upon
- the outcome of the Company's debt restructuring.
-
- 2. Summary of Accounting Policies-Commodore International Limited is
- incorporated in the Bahamas. The Consolidated financial statements of Commodore
- International Limited and Subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in
- accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
- Within those principles, the Company's more important accounting policies are
- set forth below.
-
- Principles of Consolidation-The consolidated financial statements include
- the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
- transactions have been eliminated.
-
- Translation of Non-U.S. Currencies-Assets and liabilities recorded in
- functional currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated at current
- exchange rates. The resulting adjustments are charged or credited directly to
- cumulative translation adjustment in the shareholders' equity section of the
- consolidated balance sheets. Sales and expenses are translated at the weighted
- average exchange rates for the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and
- losses are included in income in the period in which they occur. Foreign
- currency transaction gains (losses) were $(28.1) million, $16.5 million and
- $(10.2) million for fiscal 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
-
- Cash and Cash Equivalents-The Company has included cash, overnight deposits
- and time deposits with maturities less than 91 days as cash and cash
- equivalents.
-
- Accounts Receivable-At 30 June 1993 and 1992 a majority of the trade
- accounts receivable were due from distributors and dealers within the personal
- computer industry.
-
- Inventories-Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in,
- first-out) or market, and included material, labor and overhead. Intercompany
- profits are eliminated from inventory valuations. Inventories, net of reserves
- of $58 million at 30 June 1993 and $14 million at 30 June 1992, consisted of
- the following (000s omitted):
-
- 30 June 30 June
- 1993 1992
- Raw materials and work-in process $20,700 $76,300
- Finished goods 59,000 128,100
- $79,700 $204,400
-
- Property and Equipment-Major classes of property and equipment were as follows
- (000s omitted):
-
- 30 June 30 June Estimated
- Description 1993 1992 Useful Lives
- Land $ 1,900 $ 1,600
- Buildings and improvements 48,000 42,700 10-40 years
- Machinery and equipment 67,800 102,000 3-10 years
- Furniture and fixtures 8,700 13,900 3-10 years
- Tooling 2,200 8,100 2-3 years
- Leasehold improvements 14,300 15,300 Lease Term
- $142,900 $183,600
-
- Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets
- using primarily the straight-line method. Expenditures for additions, renewals,
- and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as
- occurred. Upon sale or other disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost
- and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount,
- less proceeds from disposal, is charged or credited to income.
-
- Income Taxes-The Company and its subsidiaries provide taxes on income in
- accordance with the enacted tax rules and regulations of the many taxing
- jurisdictions where income is earned. The income tax rates imposed by these
- jurisdictions vary substantially. Taxable income may differ from pretax income
- for financial accounting purposes. Deferred taxes are based on the estimated
- future tax effects of differences between the financial statements and tax
- bases of assets and liabilities. The Company does not provide income taxes on
- undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries which are permanently
- reinvested.
-
- Investment credits and other allowances provided by income tax laws of
- respective countries are credited to current income tax expense under the
- flow-through method of accounting.
-
- In fiscal 1992, the Company implemented the provisions of Statement of
- Financial Accounting Standards (Statement) No. 109, "Accounting for Income
- Taxes." Statement No. 109 utilize the liability method of accounting for income
- taxes. The effect of adopting Statement No. 109 was not significant.
-
- Revenue Recognition-Sales are recognized when products are shipped or title
- is transferred to the customer, net of allowances for estimated returns and
- discounts. Anticipated warranty costs are provided in the same period in which
- the corresponding revenues are generated.
-
- Research and Development Costs-The Company expenses research and
- development costs as incurred.
-
- Foreign Exchange Contracts-The Company periodically enters into foreign
- exchange contracts to hedge financial statement amounts denominated in foreign
- currencies. Gains and losses related to contracts which hedge future revenues
- are included in net sales. Gains and losses on contracts which hedge against
- certain payables denominated in foreign currencies offset the foreign currency
- transaction gains or losses on those payables. Gains and losses arising from
- foreign exchange contracts which are designated as, and are effective as,
- economic hedges of the Company's net foreign investments are reported as
- translation adjustments. In the first quarter of 1993, $7.5 million of losses
- were recorded as translation adjustments. In the fourth quarter of 1992, $5.7
- million of such losses were recorded as translation adjustments.
-
- Per Share Data-Per share data are calculated using the weighted average
- number of shares of capital stock and dilutive capital stock equivalents (stock
- options and warrants) outstanding during each year. The weighted average number
- of shares used to compute earnings per share was 33,073,000, 33,593,000 and
- 33,163,000 in 1993,1992 and 1991, respectively. Net income per share is
- equivalent to fully diluted earnings per share.
-
- 3. Income Taxes-The income tax provision (benefit) consisted of the
- following (000s omitted):
-

- million and $70 million in fiscal 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.

- The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in business in countries with
- statutory rates ranging from zero to approximately 60%. As a result, the
- Company's effective tax rate may vary year to year depending upon the operating
- results of individual subsidiaries. In fiscal 1993, 1992 and 1991, exclusive of
- the adjustments described below, the Company's effective tax rate was zero,
- zero and 6%, respectively, due to operating losses in certain countries with
- high tax rates (without currently recoverable tax benefits) and income in
- countries with low or zero statutory rates.
-
- Certain of the Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries are undergoing audits by
- their respective tax authorities for various fiscal years. In fiscal 1992, the
- Company resolved tax disputes in the U.S. for the fiscal years 1981 through
- 1986 and in Italy for the fiscal years 1982 through 1984. In October 1993 the
- Company received a favorable ruling in the Japanese tax case. The total refund
- is $20 million plus interest.
-
- In the fourth quarters of fiscal 1992 and 1991, after consultation with tax
- counsel concerning the likely outcome of certain tax audits and litigation, the
- Company reduced by $3 million and $8 million, respectively, income tax accruals
- no longer considered necessary to meet the probable liabilities in those
- proceedings.
-
- As of 30 June 1993, the Company's U.S. subsidiaries have net operating loss
- carryforwards of approximately $140 million. Certain of the Company's non-U.S.
- subsidiaries have net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $100
- million, which expire at various dates through 2002.
-
- As of 30 June 1993, the Company's deferred tax assets consisted primarily
- of its net operating loss carryforwards, accrued restructuring costs, inventory
- reserves and allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. Management has
- assigned a valuation allowance to offset fully the future tax benefits of these
- deferred tax assets.
-
- 4. Short-term Debt-As of 30 June 1993, short-term debt included $50.1
- million from various banks in 18 countries and $7.5 million from a company
- controlled by the chairman of Commodore. Several of the banks have demanded
- repayment and in most cases the Company has reached temporary resolutions to
- any legal action in order to allow time to develop a restructuring plan. The
- bank loans are no collateralized. As of 30 June 1993, there were no unused
- short-term lines of credit available.
-
- For short-term bank borrowings of $50.1 million at 30 June 1993, the
- average interest rate was 6.6% (1992-8.6%
- 1991 - 11.2%). The maximum month-end short-term borrowings during fiscal 1993
- were $67.2 million (1992 - $67.8 million
- 1991 - $26.6 million). The average month-end short-term borrowings outstanding
- during fiscal 1993 were $60.3 million (1992 - $28.5 million
- 1991 - $17.4 million) at a weighted average interest rate of 7.7% (1992 - 9.8%
- 1991 - 12.7%).
-
- In order to obtain needed working capital, Transpacific Company Limited
- (TPC), a company controlled by the chairman of Commodore, loaned the Company
- $17.0 million in February and April 1993. An agreement was made to sell $9.5
- million of inventory in satisfaction of a portion of the debt. The proceeds of
- these sales were temporarily retained by the Company but subsequently repaid to
- TPC. As of 30 June 1993, the $9.5 million obligation to TPC has been recorded
- as an accrued for financial accounting purposes. The remaining amount of $7.5
- million is presented by a collateralized demand loan and the has been
- classified as short-term debt as of 30 June 1993.

- 9. Commitments and Contingencies
-
- In fiscal 1993 the Company completed an investigation and feasibility study
- regarding ground water contamination at its semiconductor manufacturing
- facility in Pennsylvania. As a result of the study the Company and a previous
- owner were ordered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
- to remedy the contamination. The previous owner of the facility has agreed to
- undertake the cleanup of the site. Settlement discussions have taken place with
- the previous owner and an insurer to relieve Commodore from future costs
- related to the cleanup. Management anticipates that the settlement discussions
- will be concluded favorably.
-
- The Company is a party to various claims and litigation matters incidental
- to the normal course of business, including certain collections actions by
- creditors. Although it is impossible to predict the results of specific
- matters, management believes that the aggregate liability, if any, for all
- lawsuits to which the Company is a party, in excess of insurance coverage and
- financial statement provisions, will not have a material adverse effect on the
- Company's operations or financial position.
-
- 10. Legal Settlement-During the third quarter of fiscal 1991, the Company
- under a court order, settled a lawsuit brought by its former president. The
- suit arose from facts surrounding the former president's employment. As a
- result of the unfavorable outcome the Company paid $9.2 million which has been
- classified as an extraordinary charge in the accompanying consolidated
- statement of operations.
