See accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. 4 COLUMBIA SPORTSWEAR COMPANY NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of Columbia Sportswear Company (the "Company") and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2001, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. Certain reclassifications of amounts reported in the prior period financial statements have been made to conform to classifications used in the current period financial statements. NOTE 2. INVENTORIES Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

NOTE 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share," requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. 5 There were no adjustments to net income in computing diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. A reconciliation of the common shares used in the denominator for computing basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows (in thousands):
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, ------------------ ----------------- 2001 2000 2001 2000 ------ ------ ------ ------ Weighted average common shares outstanding, used in computing basic earnings per share 39,029 38,148 38,865 38,142 Effect of dilutive stock options 1,045 1,041 945 830 ------ ------ ------ ------ Weighted-average common shares outstanding, used in computing diluted earnings per share 40,074 39,189 39,810 38,972 ====== ====== ====== ====== Earnings per share of common stock: Basic $ 0.16 $ 0.09 $ 0.39 $ 0.18 Diluted $ 0.16 $ 0.09 $ 0.38 $ 0.18
On May 2, 2001, the Company announced that the Board of Directors approved a three-for-two split of the Company's Common Stock. The additional shares were distributed on June 4, 2001, to all shareholders of record at the close of business on May 17, 2001. The shares presented in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, and the number of shares used in the computation of earnings per share in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, are based on the number of shares outstanding after giving effect to the June 2001 stock split. NOTE 5. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company operates in one industry segment: the design, production, marketing and selling of active outdoor apparel, including outerwear, sportswear, rugged footwear, and accessories. The geographic distribution of the Company's net sales, income before income tax, and identifiable assets are summarized in the following table (in thousands). Inter-geographic net sales, which are recorded at a negotiated mark-up and eliminated in consolidation, are not material.

NOTE 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT As part of the Company's risk management programs, the Company uses a variety of financial instruments, including foreign currency option and forward exchange contracts. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company uses a combination of foreign currency option and forward exchange contracts to hedge against the currency risk associated with Japanese yen, Canadian dollar and European Euro denominated, firmly committed and anticipated transactions for the next twelve months. The Company accounts for these instruments as cash flow hedges. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity", such financial instruments are marked-to-market with the offset to shareholders' equity and then subsequently recognized as a component of gross margin when the underlying transaction is recognized. The Company measures hedge effectiveness of foreign currency option and forward exchange contracts based on the forward price of the underlying commodity. Hedge ineffectiveness was not material during the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. NOTE 7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 141 requires that all business combinations subsequent to June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. SFAS 142 establishes new standards for goodwill acquired in a business combination and eliminates amortization of goodwill and instead sets forth methods to periodically evaluate goodwill for impairment. SFAS 142 will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2002. Management has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 142 and has determined that this statement will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 7 ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS The statements in this report concerning future financing and working capital requirements and the impact of Euro implementation on our business constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such forward looking statements, including risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 under the heading "Factors That May Affect Our Business". Factors that could adversely affect future financing and working capital needs include, but are not limited to, unfavorable economic conditions, increased competitive factors (including increased competition, new product offerings by competitors and price pressures); changes in consumer preferences; unseasonable weather; an inability to increase sales to department stores or to open and operate new concept shops on favorable terms; a failure to manage growth effectively; unavailability of independent manufacturing, labor or supplies at reasonable prices; disruptions in the outerwear, sportswear and rugged footwear industries; delays or disruptions in our capital projects; and our ability to negotiate favorable terms for construction and implementation of our proposed European distribution facility. Factors that could cause the implementation of the Euro to have an adverse affect on our business include operational disruptions that could result from the systems conversion for the Euro introduction. The Company does not undertake any obligations to update this forward-looking information to conform it to changes in circumstances or expectations. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, selected statements of operations data expressed as a percentage of net sales.
Three Months Ended Six Months Ended ------------------ ---------------- June 30, June 30, -------- -------- 2001 2000 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 56.2 55.0 56.7 56.1 ----- ----- ----- ----- Gross profit 43.8 45.0 43.3 43.9 Selling, general and administrative 34.6 38.0 33.5 37.6 ----- ----- ----- ----- Income from operations 9.2 7.0 9.8 6.3 Interest expense, net 0.5 0.8 0.2 0.7 ----- ----- ----- ----- Income before income tax 8.7 6.2 9.6 5.6 Income tax expense 3.4 2.5 3.8 2.2 ----- ----- ----- ----- Net income 5.3% 3.7% 5.8% 3.4% ===== ===== ===== =====
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 NET SALES: Net sales increased 25.0% to $121.5 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2001 from $97.2 million for the comparable period in 2000. Domestic sales increased 22.6% to $88.0 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2001 from $71.8 million for the comparable period in 2000. Net international sales, excluding Canada, increased 38.4% to $25.6 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2001 from $18.5 million for the comparable period in 2000. Canadian sales increased 14.5% to $7.9 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2001 from $6.9 million for the same period in 2000. These increases were primarily attributable to increased sales of sportswear, outerwear and footwear units primarily in the United States and Europe. GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 43.8 % for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to 45.0% for the comparable period in 2000. The decline in gross margin was due to the decreased gross margins on increased sales of spring close-out products and the weakness of the Euro currency for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 when compared to the same period in 2000. 8 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE: Selling, general, and administrative expense (SG&A) increased 13.8% to $42.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $36.9 million for the comparable period in 2000, primarily as a result of an increase in variable selling and operating expenses to support the higher level of sales. As a percentage of sales, SG&A decreased to 34.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from 38.0% for the comparable period in 2000, as we continue to utilize the existing investments in global infrastructure to support the higher level of sales. INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense decreased by 23.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was attributable to our increased cash position for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 when compared to the same period in 2000. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 NET SALES: Net sales increased 26.3% to $259.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 from $205.6 million for the comparable period in 2000. Domestic sales increased 24.0% to $174.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 from $140.7 million for the comparable period in 2000. Net international sales, excluding Canada, increased 34.3% to $63.8 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 from $47.5 million for the comparable period in 2000. Canadian net sales increased 23.0% to $21.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 from $17.4 million for the comparable period in 2000. These increases were primarily attributable to increased sales of sportswear and outerwear units across all regions and footwear units in the United States and Europe. GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 43.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to 43.9% for the comparable period in 2000. The decline in gross margin was due to the decreased gross margins on increased sales of spring close-out products and the weakness of the Euro currency for the six months ended June 30, 2001 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE: SG&A increased 12.4% to $86.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $77.3 million for the comparable period in 2000, primarily as a result of an increase in variable selling and operating expenses to support the higher level of sales. As a percentage of sales, SG&A decreased to 33.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from 37.6% for the comparable period in 2000 as we were able to leverage our sales growth over our fixed operating expenses. INTEREST EXPENSE: Interest expense decreased by 54.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was attributable to our increased cash position for the six months ended June 30, 2001 when compared to the same period in 2000. SEASONALITY OF BUSINESS Our business is affected by the general seasonal trends common to the outdoor apparel industry, with sales and profits highest in the third calendar quarter. Our products are marketed on a seasonal basis, with a product mix weighted substantially toward the fall season. Results of operations in any period should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future period. The sale of our products is subject to substantial cyclical fluctuation or impact from unseasonal weather conditions. Sales tend to decline in periods of recession or uncertainty regarding future economic prospects that affect consumer spending, particularly on discretionary items. This cyclicality and any related fluctuation in consumer demand could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows and financial position. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our primary ongoing funding requirements are to finance working capital and the continued growth of the business. At June 30, 2001, we had total cash equivalents of $20.9 million compared to $12.9 million at June 30, 2000. Cash used in operating activities was $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $1.1 million for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in inventory required to support higher sales levels partially offset by an increase in earnings and a decrease in accounts receivable. Our primary capital requirements are for working capital, investing activities associated with the expansion of our domestic and international operations and general corporate needs. Net cash used in investing activities 9 was $19.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and $2.9 million for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to expenditures related to the expansion of our domestic distribution center. Cash provided by financing activities was $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to cash used in financing activities of $0.7 million for the comparable period in 2000. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to proceeds from issuance of common stock. To fund our working capital requirements, we have available unsecured revolving lines of credit with aggregate seasonal limits ranging from approximately $35 to $75 million, of which $10 million to $50 million is committed. As of June 30, 2001, $24.4 million was outstanding under these lines of credit. Additionally, we maintain credit agreements in order to provide us with unsecured import lines of credit with a combined limit of approximately $215 million available for issuing documentary letters of credit. Internationally, our subsidiaries have local currency operating lines in place guaranteed by our domestic operations. We have recently announced capital expenditures to support our continued growth, including the expansion of our United States distribution center, remodeling of our recently purchased corporate headquarters and construction of a European distribution facility. We anticipate the capital expenditures associated with these projects, as well as our maintenance capital, will be approximately $40 million in 2001 and will be funded by existing cash and cash provided by operations. However, if the need for additional financing arises, our ability to obtain additional credit facilities will depend on prevailing market conditions, our financial condition, and our ability to negotiate favorable terms and conditions. EURO CURRENCY CONVERSION On January 1, 1999, the Euro was adopted as the national currency of the participating countries - Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Greece adopted the Euro on January 1, 2001. Initially, the Euro will be used for non-cash transactions. Legacy currencies of the participating member states will remain legal tender until January 1, 2002. On this date, Euro-denominated bills and coins will be issued for use in cash transactions. The introduction of the Euro is a significant event with potential implications for our existing operations within the participating countries. As such, we have committed resources to conduct risk assessments and to take corrective actions, where required, to ensure that we are prepared for the introduction of the Euro. Progress regarding Euro implementation is reported regularly to management. We have not experienced any significant operational disruptions to date and at this time do not expect the continued implementation of the Euro to cause any significant operational disruptions. In addition, we have not incurred and do not expect to incur any significant costs from the continued implementation of the Euro, including any additional currency risk, which could materially affect our liquidity or capital resources. ITEM 3 -- QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosure contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. 10 PART II.
