See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. -5- 6 OAKLEY, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Oakley, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year ending December 31, 1999. NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES Inventories consist of the following:

NOTE 3 - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS Line of credit - The Company has a $50.0 million unsecured line of credit with a bank syndicate which bears interest at either the bank's prime lending rate (7.75% at March 31, 1999) or LIBOR plus 0.75% (5.69% at March 31, 1999), as defined in the credit agreement, and matures August 2001. At March 31, 1999, the Company had $11.5 million outstanding under the credit agreement. The credit agreement contains various restrictive covenants including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. At March 31, 1999, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants and financial ratios. Long-term debt - The Company has a real estate term loan which is due September 2007. The term loan, which is collateralized by the Company's corporate headquarters, requires quarterly principal payments of approximately $380,000 ($1,519,000 annually), plus interest based upon LIBOR plus 1.00% (6.02% at March 31, 1999) for ten years. In January 1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement that results in fixing the interest rate over the term of the note at 6.31%. At March 31, 1999, the outstanding balance under the term loan was $20.5 million. NOTE 4 - LITIGATION During December 1996, three putative class action lawsuits (the "California Securities Actions") were filed in the California Superior Court for the County of Orange (the "Superior Court") against the Company and three of its officers and directors alleging material misstatements and omissions in certain of the Company's public statements, SEC filings and reports of third-party analysts. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief. In addition, one of the lawsuits also asserted claims against firms who served as underwriters of the June 6, 1996 offering of the Company's common stock by certain of its shareholders of (the "Secondary Offering"). Pursuant to certain provisions of the underwriting agreement between the Company and the firms, the Company agreed to indemnify the firms against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Pursuant to a court order sustaining demurrers to certain claims and to plaintiffs' dismissal without prejudice of certain other claims, the only claim remaining in the Superior Court in the California Securities Actions is a claim for -6- 7 purported violations of the antifraud provision of the California Corporation Code with respect to two of the Company's officers and directors. On April 1, 1998, the Superior Court entered a judgment (the "Judgment") in the California Securities Actions in favor of the Company, one of the Company's officers and directors and the firms who served as underwriters of the Secondary Offering. On April 15, 1998, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the Judgment in the Superior Court, which concerns plaintiffs' cause of action for purported violations of the antifraud provisions of the California Corporations Code. On March 31, 1999, the parties to the appeal filed a stipulation and request for dismissal of appeal in the California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District (the "Court of Appeal"). On April 1, 1999, the Court of Appeal entered an order dismissing the appeal from the Judgement. In March 1997, the Company was named as a nominal defendant in a putative derivative action (the "California Derivative Action") filed in the Superior Court against two of the Company's officers and directors based on substantially the same allegations as those in the California Securities Actions. The derivative plaintiff seeks to recover damages and other relief on behalf of the Company. On February 4, 1998, the court entered a final order of dismissal of the putative derivative action. On April 8, 1998, the derivative plaintiff filed a notice of appeal in the Superior Court. In March 1999, the parties to the California Derivative Action entered into a stipulation of settlement regarding the derivative claims that is subject to approval by the Court of Appeal. The settlement, if approved, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. During October, November and December 1997, five putative class action lawsuits (the "Federal Securities Actions") were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Southern Division (the "District Court") against the Company, three of its officers and directors and firms that served as underwriters of the Secondary Offering, alleging material misstatements and omissions in certain of the Company's public statements, the reports of third-party analysts and/or certain of the Company's SEC filings. The plaintiffs in the Federal Securities Actions seek unspecified damages and other relief. On July 10, 1998, the Company and the other defendants filed motions to dismiss the Federal Securities Actions. On January 14, 1999, the District Court denied the motions to dismiss. On March 3, 1999, the defendants filed answers in the Federal Securities Actions. Although it is too soon to predict the outcome of the California Securities Actions, the California Derivative Action or the Federal Securities Actions with any certainty, based on its current understanding of the facts, the Company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the actions (including the California Derivative Action should the settlement not be approved). In addition, the Company is currently involved in litigation incidental to the Company's business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of such litigation, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. NOTE 5 - CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, on January 1, 1999. The adoption of SFAS 133 resulted in a transition adjustment recorded by the Company as a cumulative-effect type adjustment of a $103,000 charge to accumulated other comprehensive income to recognize the fair value of all derivatives that are designated as cash-flow hedges. The Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to transactions of its international subsidiaries as well as fluctuations in its variable rate debt. As part of its overall strategy to manage the level of exposure to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company uses foreign exchange contracts in the form of forward contracts and option contracts. In addition, as part of its overall strategy to manage the level of exposure to the risk of fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement. At March 31, 1999, all of the Company's derivatives are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. For all qualifying and highly effective cash flow hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income. The Company is currently hedging forecasted transactions that -7- 8 are expected to result in reclassifications of $1.2 million of gains to earnings over the next nine months. The Company hedges forecasted transactions that are determined probable to occur within 12 months or less. On the date the Company enters into a derivative contract, management designates the derivative as a hedge of the identified exposure. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments that do not qualify as cash flow hedges. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. In this documentation, the Company specifically identifies the asset, liability, firm commitment, or forecasted transaction that has been designated as a hedged item and states how the hedging instrument is expected to hedge the risks related to the hedged item. The Company formally measures effectiveness of its hedging relationships both at the hedge inception and on an ongoing basis in accordance with its risk management policy. The Company would discontinue hedge accounting prospectively if it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item; when the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised; when the derivative is designated as a hedge instrument, because it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur; because a hedged firm commitment no longer meets the definition of a firm commitment; or if management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate. During the three-months ended March 31, 1999, the Company reclassified into earnings a net gain of $212,000, resulting from the expiration, sale, termination or exercise of foreign exchange contracts. NOTE 6 - EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Earnings per share assuming dilution is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding did not include any dilutive options while at March 31, 1998, the diluted weighted average common shares included 106,000 dilutive stock options. -8- 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion includes the operations of Oakley, Inc. and subsidiaries for each of the periods discussed. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 Net sales Net sales increased to $48.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $41.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $7.7 million, or 18.8%. This increase was primarily the result of strong sunglass sales, including sales of a Wires, Minutes and Tens introduced during the second and third quarters of 1998, increased sales from sport shield sunglasses and Fives and initial sales from the newest addition to the Company's X Metal line, Juliet, introduced in February 1999. Sales of the Company's new polarized versions of selected sunglass lines also contributed to increased revenue. The Company's domestic sales increased 18.3% to $28.5 million from $24.1 million in the comparable 1998 period, principally as a result of a 29.2% increase in net sales to the Company's largest customer, Sunglass Hut. The Company's international sales increased 19.6% to $20.2 million in 1999 from $16.9 million in 1998, principally as a result of increased sales in all direct operations, particularly Europe, Canada, United Kingdom and Japan. Southeast Asia and Latin America sales represented 1.7% and 2.6%, respectively, of total net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Footwear net sales were $0.3 million, or 0.7% of net sales, for the first quarter of 1999. Sales of other product categories as a group increased 22.1% during the quarter ended March 31, 1999 over the quarter ended March 31, 1998 primarily due to increased sales in the Company's expanded apparel line. Gross profit Gross profit increased to $28.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $24.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $3.9 million, or 15.7%. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 58.8% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from 60.5% for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The decline in gross profit as a percentage of net sales is primarily attributable to the Company's continued investment in its start-up footwear operations. Excluding the impact of footwear, gross profit in the first quarter of 1999 would have been 60.6% compared with 60.8% in the first quarter of 1998. Operating expenses Operating expenses increased to $25.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $3.6 million, or 16.1%. Increased variable expenses, higher footwear operating expenses and incremental expenses due to the shift to direct operations in Canada contributed to the increase in operating expenses. Research and development expenses were $1.5 million, or 3.1% of net sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $1.2 million, or 2.9% of net sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $0.3 million. Selling expenses increased $2.2 million to $15.7 million, or 32.2% of net sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $13.5 million, or 32.9% of net sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1998 as a result of increases in variable expenses such as commissions. As a percentage of net sales, shipping and warehousing expenses decreased to 2.6% of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from 3.4% of net sales for the comparable 1998 period due to positive results from various initiatives to reduce shipping costs. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $7.5 million, or 15.4% of net sales, compared to $6.2 million, -9- 10 or 15.1% of net sales, in the same period in 1998. This increase in general and administrative expenses was a result of increased personnel related costs and professional fees. Operating income The Company's operating income increased to $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $0.3 million, or 12.0%, over the same period in the previous year. As a percentage of net sales, operating income decreased to 5.7% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from 6.1% for the three months ended March 31, 1998. This decrease in operating income as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to greater operating expenses associated with the Company's footwear line. Excluding these costs, the Company's operating income would have been 9.0% as a percentage of net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 compared to 6.6% for the comparable 1998 period. Interest expense, net The Company had net interest expense of $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared with net interest expense of $0.4 million in the comparable 1998 period. The Company incurred additional interest expense primarily from its increased line of credit borrowing which was attributable to the working capital and capital expenditures required for the Company's new product categories. Net income The Company's net income increased to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an increase of $0.1 million, or 7.5%, over the comparable 1998 quarter. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company historically has financed its operations almost entirely with cash flow generated from operations and borrowings from its credit facilities. Cash provided by operating activities totaled $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and $10.8 million for the comparable period of 1998. At March 31, 1999, working capital was $47.0 million. Working capital may vary from time to time as a result of seasonality, new product introductions and changes in inventory levels. Accounts receivable days at March 31, 1999 were 43 compared to 40 for the comparable 1998 period. Inventories decreased to $31.6 million at March 31, 1999 from $35.5 million at December 31, 1998. Additionally, the Company has an unsecured line of credit of $50.0 million which matures August 2001. At March 31, 1999, the Company had an outstanding balance of $11.5 million under such facility. The Company has a real estate term loan which matures September 2007. The term loan is collateralized by the Company's corporate headquarters and requires quarterly principal payments of approximately $380,000 plus interest base on LIBOR plus 1.00% (6.02% at March 31, 1999) for ten years. In January 1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement that results in fixing the interest rate over the term of the note at 6.31%. At March 31, 1999, the outstanding balance on the term loan was $20.5 million. Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 1999 totaled $3.4 million. These expenditures were primarily attributable to the expansion of the Company's information technology capabilities, building improvements, new product production tooling and footwear production equipment. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had commitments of approximately $2.2 million for future capital purchases. The Company believes that existing capital, anticipated cash flow from operations and current and anticipated credit facilities will be sufficient to meet operating needs and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. -10- 11 SEASONALITY Historically, the Company's sales, in the aggregate, have been the highest in the period from March to September, the period during which sunglass use is typically highest. As a result, operating margins are typically lower in the first and fourth quarters, as fixed operating costs are spread over lower sales volume. In anticipation of seasonal increases in demand, the Company typically builds inventories in the fourth quarter and first quarter when net sales have historically been lower. In addition, the Company's shipments of goggles, which generate gross margins at significantly lower levels than sunglasses, are lowest in the second quarter. This seasonal trend contributes to the Company's gross margin in the second quarter, which historically has been the highest of the year. Although the Company's business generally follows this seasonal trend, new product introductions and the Company's international expansion have partially mitigated the impact of seasonality. BACKLOG Historically, the Company has generally shipped domestic orders (other than preseason orders for ski goggles and apparel and orders from certain sunglass specialty chains) within one day of receipt and international orders within two weeks of receipt. At March 31, 1999, the Company had a backlog of $6.0 million, including backorders (merchandise remaining unshipped beyond its scheduled shipping date) of $2.9 million as of such date. INFLATION The Company does not believe inflation has had a material impact on the Company in the past, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case in the future. YEAR 2000 The Company has established a Year 2000 Project Team that has completed the review of the readiness of its computer systems and business practices for handling Year 2000 issues. These issues involve systems that are date sensitive and may not be able to properly process the transition from year 1999 to year 2000 and beyond, resulting in miscalculations and software failures. The Company's Year 2000 compliance strategy involves several phases: Inventory, Assessment, Remediation, and Testing. STATE OF READINESS The Company has completed its internal inventory and assessment and is currently in the remediation and testing phase. Critical information technology ("IT") systems, which include the Company's enterprisewide information system, time clocks, e-mail and phone systems, are stated Year 2000 compliant with initial testing of systems currently underway. The Company is currently performing diagnostics and implementing Year 2000 compliant solutions on its non-IT systems, such as manufacturing equipment and those systems involved with facility management (security systems, air/heating systems, fire suppression systems). All phases for IT and non-IT systems are targeted to be completed by August 1999. The Company's Year 2000 Project Team is coordinating the global effort and monitoring progress of the Year 2000 readiness with respect to its subsidiaries. Assessment of each subsidiary's internal systems is in progress with key personnel at each subsidiary being identified to locally manage the compliance project and collect local business partner compliance statements. The Company has initiated communications with all of its key business partners to determine their extent and plans for Year 2000 compliance. As part of this process, the Company has requested written assurances from its key external business partners as to their Year 2000 readiness status and their plans to become Year 2000 compliant when necessary. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had received responses from substantially all of its key business partners acknowledging their compliance or intent to comply with Year 2000 issues. This process is ongoing and is expected to continue throughout 1999. -11- 12 COSTS TO ADDRESS YEAR 2000 ISSUES Based on analysis completed to date, management believes its current staff will be sufficient to address the Year 2000 issues and that the staff time required to address these issues should not have a material adverse effect on other projects. The costs associated with the Year 2000 project have not been budgeted and tracked as separate projects, but have been occurring in conjunction with normal operating activities. These costs are being funded through operating cash flows and are not expected to materially impact the Company's operating results. Risks and Contingency Plans of Year 2000 Issues The timing of a Year 2000 related disruption, if it were to occur, would coincide with a seasonal low in the Company's business cycle, therefore having less impact on the business. The most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenario and the associated contingency plan would be: 1. A portion of non-core IT systems experience disruption. Such disruption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's ability to function. A contingency plan would be developed if the perceived risk increases, which management is reviewing on a monthly basis. 2. A portion of manufacturing operations experience temporary disruption. Such disruption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's ability to function, as normal stock levels would cover anticipated shortages. The Company will determine the appropriate level based on business conditions and perceived risk, which management is reviewing on a monthly basis. 3. A portion of the supplier base experiences disruption. The Company has access to alternate suppliers in the event of disruption of the supply of material or resource. It is expected that the Company would source from alternates until the normal supplier comes back on line. 4. A minor portion of the customer base experiences disruption. Such disruption could result in a temporary reduction in sales. However, this reduction is not readily quantifiable. A contingency plan would be developed if the perceived risk increases, which management is reviewing on a monthly basis. There can be no assurance that there will not be a delay in, or increased costs associated with, the implementation of the necessary systems and changes to address the Year 2000 issues, and the Company's inability to implement such systems and changes in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on future results of operations. In addition, the failure of certain of the Company's significant customers or vendors to appropriately address the Year 2000 issue in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS When used in this document, the words "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "estimates," "intends," "may," "plans," "predicts," "will" or the negative thereof and similar expressions are intended to identify in certain circumstances forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, including risks related to the dependence on sales to Sunglass Hut; the acceptance in the marketplace of new products; the ability to source raw materials at prices favorable to the Company; the ability to develop and introduce innovative products; currency fluctuations; and other risks outlined in the Company's previously filed public documents, copies of which may be obtained without cost from the Company. -12- 13 Given these uncertainties, prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. The Company also undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements. ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks The Company is exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates affecting the cost of its debt. Foreign Currency - The Company has direct operations in Europe, Japan, Canada, Mexico and South Africa which collect at future dates in the customers' local currencies and purchase finished goods in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, the Company is exposed to transaction gains and losses that could result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As more fully described in Note 5 to the Company's consolidated financial statements, the Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to foreign currency transactions. As part of its overall strategy to manage the level of exposure to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company uses foreign exchange contracts in the form of forward contracts and option contracts. All of the Company's derivatives are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges at March 31, 1999. One the date the Company enters into a derivative contract, management designates the derivative as a hedge of the identified exposure. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments that do not qualify in hedging relationships. For all instruments qualifying and highly effective cash flow hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income ("OCI"). The following is a summary of the outstanding foreign currency contracts outstanding at March 31, 1999:
March 31, 1999 ------------------------------------------------ U.S. Dollar Fair Equivalent Maturity Value ----------- --------- ----------- Forward Contracts: British pounds $ 956,625 May 1999 $ 990,000 British pounds 773,354 Aug. 1999 800,000 British pounds 459,289 Nov. 1999 475,000 Canadian dollars 1,191,028 Jun. 1999 1,161,740 Canadian dollars 1,985,046 Sep. 1999 1,936,983 Canadian dollars 1,588,037 Dec. 1999 1,550,287 Japanese yen 363,483 Jun. 1999 374,728 Japanese yen 642,434 Sep. 1999 662,309 Japanese yen 1,825,866 Dec. 1999 1,882,353 French francs 3,295,653 Jun. 1999 3,553,029 French francs 4,482,088 Sep. 1999 4,832,119 French francs 3,954,784 Dec. 1999 4,268,564 Option Contracts: British pounds 2,459,908 Jun. 1999 2,500,000 British pounds 2,459,908 Sep. 1999 2,500,000 Japanese yen 1,690,617 Jun. 1999 1,353,272 Japanese yen 1,724,429 Sep. 1999 1,420,217 Japanese yen 1,783,601 Dec. 1999 1,468,950 French francs 413,275 Jun. 1999 440,000 French francs 563,557 Sep. 1999 600,000 French francs 493,112 Dec. 1999 525,000 ----------- ----------- $33,106,094 $33,294,551 =========== ===========
-13- 14 The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to its forward exchange contracts but has no off-balance sheet credit risk of accounting loss. The Company anticipates, however, that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. The Company does not obtain collateral or other security to support the forward exchange contracts subject to credit risk but monitors the credit standing of the counterparties. The Company sells direct and through its subsidiaries to various customers in the European Union which have adopted the Euro as a legal currency effective January 1, 1999. The Euro is expected to begin circulation after a three-year transition period on January 1, 2002. The Company has analyzed whether the conversion to the Euro will materially affect its business operations. The Company's information systems are capable of processing transactions in Euros. Additionally, the Company is planning to upgrade certain of its information systems through December 31, 2001 to enhance its capability to process transactions and keep records in Euros. While the Company is uncertain as to the ultimate impact of the conversion, the Company does not expect costs in connection with the Euro conversion to be material. Interest Rates - The Company's line of credit and long-term debt, with a total balance of $30.4 million outstanding at March 31, 1999, bear interest based on the bank's lending rate or LIBOR. In January 1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement, effective March 1, 1999, that eliminates the Company's risk of fluctuations in the variable rate of the long-term debt. Based on the weighted average interest rate on the line of credit at March 31, 1999 of 5.96%, if interest rates on the line of credit were to increase by 10%, the estimated impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements would be to reduce net income by approximately $45,000 after taxes. -14- 15 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings THE CALIFORNIA SECURITIES ACTIONS The Company and certain of its officers and directors have been named as defendants in three putative class action lawsuits (the "California Securities Actions") filed in December 1996 in the California Superior Court for the County of Orange (the "Superior Court"). The cases are captioned: Yosef S. Rosenshein v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb and Jim Jannard, Case No. 773051 (filed December 17, 1996); Herschel Harman v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb and Jim Jannard, Case No. 773053 (filed December 17, 1996); and Eric Sher, Harold Baron and David O. Eckert v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb, Jim Jannard, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Alex. Brown & Sons, Inc., Case No. 773366 (filed December 24, 1996). By order dated January 30, 1997, the Superior Court ordered that the California Securities Actions be assigned to the Superior Court's Complex Litigation Panel, where they have since been consolidated. On April 18, 1997, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint in the California Securities Actions. The plaintiffs seek to represent a class of persons who purchased the Company's common stock between March 22, 1996 and December 5, 1996. The complaint in the California Securities Actions alleges claims for violations of the antifraud provisions of the California Corporations Code, unfair business practices and false advertising in violation of certain provisions of the California Business and Professions Code, fraud and negligent misrepresentation. The plaintiffs' claims are based on alleged material misstatements and omissions in certain of the Company's public statements, Securities and Exchange Commission filings and in the reports of third-party analysts regarding the Company's retail distribution practices, market conditions, new product developments and extensions of existing product lines, business with Sunglass Hut and earnings prospects. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief against the Company and the other defendants. The plaintiffs in the California Securities Actions have also asserted claims against Merrill Lynch & Co. ("Merrill Lynch") and Alex. Brown and Sons, Inc. ("Alex. Brown"), which served as the U.S. Representatives of the U.S. Underwriters of the June 6, 1996 offering of five million shares of common stock of the Company by certain of its shareholders (the "Secondary Offering"). By letter dated February 7, 1997, counsel for Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown gave the Company notice pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the U.S. Purchase Agreement dated June 6, 1996, for the Secondary Offering that they were asserting a claim for indemnification under such provisions and requested that the Company reimburse Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown on a current basis for their attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in defending the California Securities Actions. Counsel for Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown subsequently indicated that this claim for indemnification also applies to attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in defending the Federal Securities Actions (described below). The Company and the other defendants filed demurrers to the California Securities Actions. On November 14, 1997, the Superior Court (1) sustained the demurrers without leave to amend with respect to the Company and defendants Link Newcomb, Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown on plaintiffs' cause of action for purported violations of the antifraud provisions of the California Corporations Code; -15- 16 (2) overruled the demurrer with respect to the Company and defendants Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb and Jim Jannard, but sustained the demurrer with leave to amend with respect to defendants Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown, on plaintiffs' cause of action for fraud and negligent misrepresentation; and (3) sustained the demurrers with leave to amend with respect to the Company and each of the other defendants on plaintiffs' cause of action for unfair business practices and false advertising in violation of certain provisions of the California Business and Professions Code. Subsequently, plaintiffs dismissed without prejudice their causes of action for fraud and negligent misrepresentation and unfair business practices and false advertising. The only claim remaining in the Superior Court is plaintiffs' cause of action for purported violations of the antifraud provisions of the California Corporations Code with respect to defendants Mike Parnell and Jim Jannard. On April 1, 1998, the Superior Court entered a judgment (the "Judgment") in favor of the Company and defendants Link Newcomb, Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown. On April 15, 1998, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the Judgment in the Superior Court, which concerns plaintiffs' cause of action for purported violations of the antifraud provisions of the California Corporations Code with respect to the Company and defendants Link Newcomb, Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown. On December 28, 1998, plaintiffs filed the opening brief on their appeal from the Judgment in the California Court of Appeal, Fourth Appellate District (the "Court of Appeal"). On March 31, 1999, plaintiffs, the Company and defendants Link Newcomb, Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown filed a stipulation and request for dismissal of appeal in the Court of Appeal. On April 1, 1999, the Court of Appeal entered an order dismissing the appeal from the Judgement. On September 24, 1998, plaintiffs in the California Securities Actions filed a motion for class certification in the Superior Court, and plaintiffs amended their motion for class certification on January 28, 1999. Discovery is ongoing in the California Securities Actions. THE FEDERAL SECURITIES ACTIONS The Company and certain of its officers and directors have been named as defendants in five putative class action lawsuits (the "Federal Securities Actions") filed in October, November and December 1997 in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Southern Division (the "District Court"). The cases are captioned: Kensington Capital Management v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb, Jim Jannard, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Alex. Brown & Sons Incorporated, No. SACV 97-808 GLT (EEx) (filed October 10, 1997) (the "Kensington Capital Management Action"); Frank Lister, James J. Scotella, Raymond E. Neveau, James S. Lewinski, Jack Rosenson and Lee Sperling v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb, Jim Jannard, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Alex. Brown & Sons Incorporated, No. SACV 97-809 GLT (EEx) (filed October 10, 1997) (the "Lister Action"); Stuart Chait and Marilyn Schwartz v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb, Jim Jannard, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Alex. Brown & Sons, Incorporated, No. SACV 97-829 GLT (EEx) (filed October 20, 1997) (the "Chait Action"); Val Fichera v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb, Jim Jannard, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Alex. Brown and Sons Incorporated, No. SACV 97-928 GLT (EEx) (filed November 17, 1997 (the "Fichera Action"); and Yosef J. Rosenshein and Hershel Harman v. Oakley, Inc., Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb, Jim Jannard, Merrill Lynch & Co. and Alex. Brown & Sons Incorporated, No. SACV 97-993 GLT (EEx) (filed December 5, 1997 (the "Rosenshein Federal Action"). -16- 17 The plaintiffs in the Kensington Capital Management and the Fichera Actions seek to represent a class of persons who purchased the Company's common stock in the Secondary Offering and allege claims for violations of sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The plaintiffs' claims are based on alleged material misstatements and omissions in the prospectus issued and registration statement filed in connection with the Secondary Offering regarding the Company's retail distribution practices, market conditions, new product developments and extensions of existing product lines, business with Sunglass Hut and quality control standards. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief against the Company and the other defendants. Plaintiffs in the Kensington Capital Management Action filed a motion to consolidate that action with the Fichera Action, and plaintiffs in the Kensington Capital Management and the Fichera Actions filed competing motions to be appointed lead plaintiffs for the purported plaintiff class and for the selection of lead counsel to the purported plaintiff class. Plaintiff's motion in the Fichera Action was later withdrawn. The plaintiffs in the Lister and Chait Actions and the Rosenshein Federal Action seek to represent a class of persons who purchased the Company's common stock between March 22, 1996 and December 5, 1996, including in the Secondary Offering, and allege claims for violations of sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The plaintiffs' claims are based on alleged material misstatements and omissions in certain of the Company's public statements, Securities and Exchange Commission filings and in the reports of third-party analysts regarding the Company's retail distribution practices, market conditions, new product developments and extensions of existing product lines, business with Sunglass Hut, earnings prospects and quality control standards. The plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief against the Company and the other defendants. Plaintiffs in the Lister and Chait Actions filed a motion to consolidate the Lister and Chait Actions and the Rosenshein Federal Action, to appoint certain persons as lead plaintiffs for the purported plaintiff class and for the selection of lead counsel to the purported plaintiff class. On January 26, 1998, the District Court granted the plaintiffs' motions for appointment of lead plaintiffs and for the selection of lead counsel to the purported plaintiff classes. The District Court further ordered that all of the Federal Securities Actions be consolidated for pretrial purposes. On April 3, 1998, plaintiffs filed consolidated amended complaints in the Federal Securities Actions. On July 10, 1998, the Company and defendants Mike Parnell, Link Newcomb and Jim Jannard filed motions to dismiss the Federal Securities Actions. Merrill Lynch and Alex. Brown also filed motions to dismiss the Federal Securities Actions. On January 14, 1999, the District Court denied the motions to dismiss filed by the Company and the other defendants. On March 3, 1999, the defendants filed answers to the consolidated amended complaints in the Federal Securities Actions. On April 2, 1999, plaintiffs filed motions for class certification in the Federal Securities Actions. The hearing on the motions for class certification currently is scheduled for June 28, 1999. Discovery in the Federal Securities Actions has commenced. THE CALIFORNIA DERIVATIVE ACTION The Company has been named as a nominal defendant in a putative derivative lawsuit against certain of its directors and officers filed in March 1997 in the Superior Court. The case is captioned Blackman v. James Jannard, Mike Parnell and Does 1 through 100, Case No. 777098 (filed March 27, 1997) (the "California Derivative Action"). In the California Derivative Action, the plaintiff, purporting to sue on behalf of the Company, alleges claims for breach of fiduciary duty, constructive fraud, unjust enrichment and violations of the insider trading provisions of the California Corporations Code. Like the California Securities Actions, the plaintiff's claims in the California Derivative Action are, among other things, based upon alleged material misstatements and omissions in certain of the Company's public statements and Securities and Exchange Commission filings regarding the Company, its operation and future prospects. The plaintiff -17- 18 seeks to recover damages and other relief on behalf of the Company. The defendants filed a demurrer to the original complaint in the California Derivative Action, and the plaintiff subsequently filed an amended complaint. The defendants filed a demurrer to the amended complaint in the California Derivative Action, and the Superior Court sustained the demurrer with leave to amend in September 1997. The plaintiff subsequently filed a second amended complaint in the California Derivative Action. The defendants then filed a demurrer to the second amended complaint in the California Derivative Action and the Superior Court sustained the demurrer without leave to amend on December 19, 1997. On February 4, 1998, the Superior Court entered a final order of dismissal of the California Derivative Action. On April 8, 1998, the plaintiff in the California Derivative Action filed a notice of appeal in the Superior Court. In March 1999, the parties to the California Derivative Action entered into a stipulation of settlement regarding derivative claims that is subject to approval by the Court of Appeal. The settlement, if approved by the Court of Appeal, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Although it is too soon to predict the outcome of any of the litigations described above with any certainty, based on its current knowledge of the facts, the Company believes that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to defend the actions (including the California Derivative Action should the settlement not be approved) vigorously. In addition, the Company is a party to various claims, complaints and other legal actions that have arisen in the normal course of business from time to time. The Company believes the outcome of these pending legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the operations or financial position of the Company. ITEM 2.
