Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein are unaudited and have been prepared from the books and records of KEMET Corporation and its subsidiaries (“KEMET” or the “Company”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, Form 10-K (the “Company’s 2011 Annual Report”).

Net sales and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. In consolidation, all significant intercompany amounts and transactions have been eliminated.  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in the Company’s 2011 Annual Report.  The Company has evaluated events and material transactions for potential recognition or disclosure occurring between the end of the Company’s most recent quarterly period and through the time that this Form 10-Q was filed with the SEC.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

New accounting standards adopted

There were no accounting standards adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2012.

New accounting standards issued but not yet adopted

There are currently no new accounting standards that have been issued that will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

Restricted Cash

A guarantee was issued by a European bank on behalf of the Company in August 2006 in conjunction with the establishment of a Valued-Added Tax (“VAT”) registration in The Netherlands.  The bank guarantee is in the amount of EUR 1.5 million ($2.2 million). An interest-bearing deposit was placed with a European bank for EUR 1.7 million ($2.5 million). The deposit is in KEMET’s name, and KEMET receives all interest earned by this deposit. However, the deposit is pledged to the European bank, and the bank can use the money if a valid claim is made. The bank guarantee will remain valid until it is discharged by the beneficiary.

Restricted cash of $2.4 million and $2.3 million is included in the line item “Prepaid expenses and other” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, respectively.

Warrant Liability

Concurrent with the consummation of the tender offer as discussed in Note 2, “Debt”, the Company issued K Financing, LLC (“K Financing”) a warrant (the “Platinum Warrant”) to purchase up to 26.8 million shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain adjustments, representing, at the time of issuance, approximately 49.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a post-Platinum Warrant basis. The Platinum Warrant was subsequently transferred to K Equity, LLC (“K Equity”). The Platinum Warrant was exercisable at a purchase price of $1.05 per share.

On December 20, 2010, in connection with a secondary offering in which K Equity was the selling security holder, K Equity exercised a portion of the Platinum Warrant representing the right to purchase 10.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock to the underwriters of the secondary offering, who exercised their full portion of the warrant at a price of $12.80 per share in a cashless exercise and received a net settlement of 10.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock.  These shares were sold as part of the secondary offering and KEMET did not receive any of the proceeds from the transaction.  K Equity retained the remaining portion of the warrant, representing the right to purchase 15.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock.

Table of Contents

On May 31, 2011, K Equity sold a portion of the Platinum Warrant to Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., in connection with the offering of 7.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, at a public offering price of $14.60 per share.  This transaction resulted in a 7.5 million share reduction to the outstanding warrants due to K Equity’s cashless exercise.  K Equity retained the remaining portion of the warrant, representing the right to purchase 8.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company utilizes three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of (a) nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the Company’s consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) and (b) all financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The first two inputs are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable. The levels of inputs are as follows:

·                  Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

·                  Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

·                  Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011 are as follows (amounts in thousands):

(1)          Included in the line item “Cash and cash equivalents” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(2)          The valuation approach used to calculate fair value was a discounted cash flow for each respective debt facility.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue only when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

A portion of sales is related to products designed to meet customer specific requirements. These products typically have stricter tolerances making them useful to the specific customer requesting the product and to customers with similar or less stringent requirements. Products with customer specific requirements are tested and approved by the customer before the Company mass produces and ships the product. The Company recognizes revenue when title to the products transfers to the respective customer.

A portion of sales is made to distributors under agreements allowing certain rights of return and price protection on unsold merchandise held by distributors. The Company’s distributor policy includes inventory price protection and “ship-from-stock and debit” (“SFSD”) programs common in the industry.

The SFSD program provides a mechanism for the distributor to meet a competitive price after obtaining authorization from the Company’s local sales office. This program allows the distributor to ship its higher-priced inventory and debit the Company for the difference between KEMET’s list price and the lower authorized price for that specific transaction. Management analyzes historical SFSD activity to determine the SFSD exposure on the global distributor inventory at the balance sheet date.  The establishment of these reserves is recognized as a component of the line item “Net sales” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, while the associated reserves are included in the line item “Accounts receivable, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Table of Contents

The Company provides a limited warranty to customers that the Company’s products meet certain specifications. The warranty period is generally limited to one year, and the Company’s liability under the warranty is generally limited to a replacement of the product or refund of the purchase price of the product. Warranty costs as a percentage of net sales were approximately 1% for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The Company recognizes warranty costs when they are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Estimates and assumptions are based on historical data and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable.  These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, they affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The Company’s judgments are based on management’s assessment as to the effect certain estimates, assumptions, or future trends or events may have on the financial condition and results of operations reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. It is important that readers of these unaudited financial statements understand that actual results could differ from these estimates, assumptions, and judgments.

The line item “Interest expense” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, is as follows (amounts in thousands):

10.5% Senior Notes

On May 5, 2010, the Company completed a private placement of $230.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 10.5% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “10.5% Senior Notes”).  The private placement of the 10.5% Senior Notes resulted in proceeds to the Company of $222.2 million. The Company used a portion of the proceeds of the private placement to repay all of the outstanding indebtedness under the credit facility with K Financing, the EUR 60 million credit facility and EUR 35 million credit facility with UniCredit and the term loan with a subsidiary of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. The Company used a portion of the remaining proceeds to fund a previously announced tender offer to purchase $40.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) and to pay costs incurred in connection with the private placement, the tender offer and the foregoing repayments. Debt issuance costs related to the 10.5% Senior Notes, net of amortization, were $5.9 million as of June 30, 2011; these costs will be amortized over the term of the 10.5% Senior Notes.

On October 26, 2010, the Company filed a Form S-4 to offer, in exchange for the outstanding 10.5% Senior Notes due 2018 (“Old Notes”), up to $230.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 10.5% Senior Notes due 2018 and the guarantees thereof which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Form S-4 was declared effective on December 14, 2010 and on January 13, 2011 the Company completed the exchange for all of the Old Notes.

The Company had interest payable related to the 10.5% Senior Notes included in the line item “Accrued expenses” on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of $4.0 million and $10.1 million at June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, respectively.

Revolving Line of Credit

On September 30, 2010, KEMET Electronics Corporation (“KEC”) and KEMET Electronics Marketing (S) Pte Ltd. (“KEMET Singapore”) (each a “Borrower” and, collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), with Bank of America, N.A, as the administrative agent and the initial lender. The Loan and Security Agreement provides a $50 million revolving line of credit, which is bifurcated into a U.S. facility (for which KEC is the Borrower) and a Singapore facility (for which KEMET Singapore is the Borrower).  The size of the U.S. facility and Singapore facility can fluctuate as long as the Singapore facility does not exceed $30 million and the total facility does not exceed $50 million.  A portion of the U.S. facility and of the Singapore facility can be used to issue letters of credit.  The facilities expire on September 30, 2014.

Debt issuance costs related to the Loan and Security Agreement, net of amortization, were $1.2 million and $1.3 million as of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, respectively.  These costs will be amortized over the term of the Loan and Security Agreement.  There were no borrowings against the Loan and Security Agreement as of June 30, 2011 or March 31, 2011.

Convertible Notes

In November 2006, the Company sold and issued its 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”) which are unsecured obligations and rank equally with the Company’s existing and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations and are junior to any of the Company’s future secured obligations to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such obligations. In connection with the issuance and sale of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into an indenture (the “Convertible Notes Indenture”) dated as of November 1, 2006, with Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee.

The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.25% per annum, payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on each May 15 and November 15. The Convertible Notes are convertible into (i) cash in an amount equal to the lesser of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes and the conversion value of the Convertible Notes on the conversion date and (ii) cash or shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) or a combination of cash and shares of the Common Stock, at the Company’s option, to the extent

Table of Contents

the conversion value at that time exceeds the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date of the Convertible Notes, unless the Company has redeemed or purchased the Convertible Notes, subject to certain conditions. The conversion rate was 34.364 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $29.1 per share, subject to adjustments. The Convertible Notes are currently not convertible.

The terms of the Convertible Notes are governed by the Convertible Notes Indenture. The Convertible Notes mature on November 15, 2026 unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted. The Company may redeem the Convertible Notes for cash, either in whole or in part, anytime after November 20, 2011 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, including additional interest, if any, up to but not including the date of redemption. In addition, holders of the Convertible Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Convertible Notes on November 15, 2011, 2016 and 2021, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in each case, up to but not including, the date of repurchase. Currently there is $37.6 million of Convertible Notes outstanding.

On May 17, 2010, $40.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes was extinguished.  The extinguishment resulted in $1.6 million loss on early extinguishment of debt. The calculation of the loss is as follows (amounts in thousands):

Platinum Credit Facility

On May 5, 2009, the Company executed a credit facility with K Financing, an affiliate of Platinum Equity Capital Partners II, L.P. (the “Platinum Credit Facility”). The Platinum Credit Facility consisted of a term loan of $37.8 million (“Platinum Term Loan”), a line of credit loan (“Platinum Line of Credit Loan”) that could be borrowed from time to time (but not reborrowed after being repaid) of up to $12.5 million and a working capital loan (“Platinum Working Capital Loan”) of up to $12.5 million. On May 5, 2010, the Platinum Term Loan, the Platinum Line of Credit Loan, and the Platinum Working Capital Loan were extinguished.  The extinguishment of the Platinum Credit Facility resulted in a $33.3 million loss on early extinguishment of debt due to the significant debt discount allocated to the Platinum Credit Facility upon issuance. The calculation of the loss is as follows (amounts in thousands):

UniCredit Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had two Senior Facility Agreements outstanding with UniCredit.  As of March 31, 2010, Facility A had EUR 53.2 million ($71.7 million) outstanding and Facility B had EUR 33.0 million ($44.5 million) outstanding.

On June 13, 2011, the Company completed its acquisition of Cornell Dubilier Foil, LLC (whose name was subsequently changed to KEMET Foil Manufacturing, LLC), a Tennessee based manufacturer of etched foils utilized as a core component in the manufacture of electrolytic capacitors.  The purchase price was $15 million plus or minus an adjustment amount, of which $11.6 million (net of cash received) was paid at closing and $1 million is to be paid on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date.  As a result of the acquisition, the Company has preliminarily recorded goodwill of $1.1 million and amortizable intangibles of $1.7 million.  The allocation of the purchase price to specific assets and liabilities was based on the relative fair value of all assets and liabilities.  Factors contributing to the purchase price which resulted in the goodwill (which is tax deductible) include the trained workforce. Pro forma results are not presented because the acquisition was not material.

The following table highlights the Company’s intangible assets (amounts in thousands):

Note 12. Concentrations of Risks

Sales and Credit Risk

The Company sells to customers globally.  Credit evaluations of the Company’s customers’ financial condition are performed periodically, and the Company generally does not require collateral from its customers.  One customer, TTI, Inc. accounted for over 10% of the Company’s net sales in the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.  There were no customers’ accounts receivable balances exceeding 10% of gross accounts receivable at June 30, 2011 or March 31, 2011.

Electronics distributors are an important distribution channel in the electronics industry and accounted for 45% and 49% of the Company’s net sales in the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  As a result of the Company’s concentration of sales to electronics distributors, the Company may experience fluctuations in the Company’s operating results as electronics distributors experience fluctuations in end-market demand or adjust their inventory stocking levels.

Employee Risks

As of June 30, 2011, KEMET had 11,100 employees, of which 600 are located in the United States, 5,600 in Mexico, 2,600 in Asia and 2,300 in Europe.  The number of employees represented by labor organizations at KEMET locations in each of the following countries is:  4,600 hourly employees in Mexico (as required by Mexican law), 710 employees in Italy, 690 employees in Indonesia, 360 employees in Portugal, 250 employees in China, 280 employees in Bulgaria, 240 employees in Finland and 90 employees in Sweden.  For fiscal year 2011 and the current fiscal year to date, the Company has not experienced any major work stoppages. Our labor costs in Mexico, Asia and various locations in Europe are denominated in local currencies, and a significant depreciation or appreciation of the United States dollar against the local currencies would increase or decrease our labor costs.

Note 13. Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements

The 10.5% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior basis by certain of the Company’s 100% owned domestic subsidiaries (“Guarantor Subsidiaries”) and secured by a first priority lien on 51% of the capital stock of certain of our foreign restricted subsidiaries (“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”).  The Company’s Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are not consistent with the Company’s business groups or geographic operations; accordingly this basis of presentation is not intended to present the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows for any purpose other than to comply with the specific requirements for subsidiary guarantor reporting. We are required to present condensed consolidating financial information in order for the subsidiary guarantors of the Company’s public debt to be exempt from reporting under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Condensed consolidating financial statements for the Company’s Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are presented in the following tables (amounts in thousands):
