Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. As such, they should be read with reference to Griffons Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012, which provides a more complete explanation of Griffons accounting policies, financial position, operating results, business properties and other matters. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of interim results. Griffons HBP operations are seasonal; for this and other reasons, the financial results of the Company for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet information at September 30, 2012 was derived from the audited financial statements included in Griffons Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Griffon and all subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
4
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates may be adjusted due to changes in economic, industry or customer financial conditions, as well as changes in technology or demand. Significant estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and returns, net realizable value of inventories, restructuring reserves, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, percentage of completion method of accounting, pension assumptions, useful lives associated with depreciation and amortization of intangible and fixed assets, warranty reserves, sales incentive accruals, stock based compensation assumptions, income taxes and tax valuation reserves, environmental reserves, legal reserves, insurance reserves and the valuation of discontinued assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures. These estimates are based on managements best knowledge of current events and actions Griffon may undertake in the future. Actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates.
Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
NOTE 2 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The carrying values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts and notes payable and revolving credit debt approximate fair value due to either the short-term nature of such instruments or the fact that the interest rate of the revolving credit debt is based upon current market rates.
The fair values of Griffons 2018 senior notes and 2017 4% convertible notes approximated $594,000 and $106,900, respectively, on June 30, 2013. Fair values were based upon quoted market prices (level 1 inputs).
Insurance contracts and trading securities with values of $3,922 and $2,198 at June 30, 2013, respectively, are measured and recorded at fair value based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (level 1 inputs).
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
At June 30, 2013, Griffon had $1,000 of Australian dollar contracts at a weighted average rate of $1.09. The contracts, which protect Australia operations from currency fluctuations for U.S. dollar based purchases, do not qualify for hedge accounting and a fair value gain of $135 and $122 was recorded in Other assets and to Other income for the outstanding contracts, based on similar contract values (level 2 inputs), for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. All contracts expire in 15 to 60 days.
In the normal course of business, Griffons operations are exposed to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In order to manage these risks, Griffon may enter into various derivative contracts such as foreign currency exchange contracts, including forwards and options. During the second and third quarters of 2013, Clopay Europe and Clopay Plastics entered into forward exchange contracts to receive $3,375 USD and $1,313 USD at the fixed exchange rate of 1.35 USD/EUR and 1.31 USD/EUR on April 3, 2013 and July 2, 2013, respectively. These contracts were created in order to lock into a foreign currency rate for a planned settlement of inter-company liabilities payable in USD. At inception, the hedges were deemed effective as cash flow hedges with gains and losses related to changes in fair value deferred and recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) and Prepaid and other current assets until settlement. Upon settlement, gains and losses are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) as Other income. A gain of $171 was recorded in Other income in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. Amounts recorded as Prepaid and other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet were $13 and nil as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, for the fair value of these contracts, based on similar contract values (level 2 inputs).

NOTE 7 INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rates for the quarter and nine-month period ended June 30, 2013 were 54.0% and 53.6%, respectively, compared to 39.7% and 45.0% in the comparable prior year periods, respectively. The rates include discrete benefits in the current and prior year quarter of $1,495 and $1,626, respectively, and in the current and prior year nine-month periods of $1,859 and $1,626, respectively, primarily resulting from the release of previously established reserves for uncertain tax positions on conclusion of certain tax audits, and benefits arising on the filing of tax returns in various jurisdictions.
Excluding discrete items, the effective tax rates for the quarter and nine-month period ended June 30, 2013 were 73.1% and 79.4%, respectively, compared to 50.5% and 51.6% in the comparable prior year periods, respectively. Rates in all periods reflect the impact of permanent differences not deductible in determining taxable income, mainly limited deductibility of restricted stock, tax reserves and of changes in earnings mix between domestic and non-domestic operations, all of which are material relative to the level of pretax result.

On March 17, 2011, in an unregistered offering through a private placement under Rule 144A, Griffon issued, at par, $550,000 of 7.125% Senior Notes due in 2018 (Senior Notes); interest is payable semi-annually. On August 9, 2011, Griffon exchanged all of the Senior Notes for substantially identical Senior Notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933 via an exchange offer. |
|
|
|
The Senior Notes can be redeemed prior to April 1, 2014 at a price of 100% of principal plus a make-whole premium and accrued interest; on or after April 1, 2014, the Senior Notes can be redeemed at a certain price (declining from 105.344% of principal on or after April 1, 2014 to 100% of principal on or after April 1, 2017), plus accrued interest. Proceeds from the Senior Notes were used to pay down outstanding borrowings under a senior secured term loan facility and two senior secured revolving credit facilities of certain of the Companys subsidiaries. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Griffon guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries, and are subject to certain covenants, limitations and restrictions. |
|
|
|
On March 28, 2013, Griffon amended and increased the amount available under its Revolving Credit Facility (Credit Agreement) from $200,000 to $225,000 and extended its maturity from March 17, 2016 to March 28, 2018. The facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a limit of $60,000, a multi-currency sub-facility of $50,000 and a swingline sub-facility with a limit of $30,000. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be repaid and re-borrowed at any time, subject to final maturity of the facility or the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement. Interest is payable on borrowings at either a LIBOR or base rate benchmark rate, in each case without a floor, plus an applicable margin, which adjusts based on financial performance. The current margins are 1.25% for base rate loans and 2.25% for LIBOR loans. The Credit Agreement has certain financial maintenance tests including a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum senior secured leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The Credit Agreement also includes certain restrictions, such as limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and liens and the making of restricted payments and investments. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Griffons material domestic subsidiaries and are secured, on a first priority basis, by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors. |

|
|
|
At June 30, 2013, there were $25,867 of standby letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement; $199,133 was available, subject to certain covenants, for borrowing at that date. |
|
|
(b) |
On December 21, 2009, Griffon issued $100,000 principal of 4% convertible subordinated notes due 2017 (the 2017 Notes). The current conversion rate of the 2017 Notes is 67.8495 shares of Griffons common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, corresponding to a conversion price of $14.74 per share. When a cash dividend is declared that would result in an adjustment to the conversion ratio of less than 1%, any adjustment to the conversion ratio is deferred until the first to occur of (i) actual conversion, (ii) the 42nd trading day prior to maturity of the notes, and (iii) such time as the cumulative adjustment equals or exceeds 1%. As of June 30, 2013, aggregate dividends since the last conversion price adjustment of $0.05 per share would have resulted in an adjustment to the conversion ratio of approximately 0.44%. At June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, the 2017 Notes had a capital in excess of par component, net of tax, of $15,720. |
|
|
(c) |
On December 20, 2010, Griffon entered into two second lien real estate mortgages to secure new loans totaling $11,834.

The loans bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 3% with the option to swap to a fixed rate. |

|
|
(d) |

NOTE 9 SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
On November 17, 2011, the Company began declaring quarterly cash dividends. During 2012, the Company declared and paid quarterly dividends of $0.02 per share, totaling $0.08 per share for the year. During the first, second and third quarters of 2013, the Board of Directors approved quarterly cash dividends of $0.025 per common share, which were paid on December 26, 2012, March 27, 2013, June 26, 2013, to holders of common stock as of close of business on November 29, 2012, February 27, 2013 and May 28, 2013, respectively. Dividends paid on allocated shares in the ESOP were used to pay down the ESOP loan and recorded as a reduction in expense. A dividend payable was established for the holders of restricted shares; such payable will be released upon vesting of the underlying restricted shares.
On August 6, 2013, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.025 per share, payable on September 25, 2013 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 27, 2013.
Compensation expense for restricted stock is recognized ratably over the required service period based on the fair value of the grant calculated as the number of shares granted multiplied by the stock price on the date of grant, and for performance shares, the likelihood of achieving the performance criteria. Compensation cost related to stock-based awards with graded vesting is amortized using the straight-line attribution method.
In February 2011, shareholders approved the Griffon Corporation 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the Incentive Plan) under which awards of performance shares, performance units, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, deferred shares and other stock-based awards may be granted. Options granted under the Incentive Plan may be either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options, generally expire ten years after the date of grant and are granted at an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value at the date of grant. The maximum number of shares of common stock available for award under the Incentive Plan is 3,000,000 (600,000 of which may be issued as incentive stock options) plus any shares underlying awards outstanding on the effective date of the Incentive Plan under the 2006 Incentive Plan that are subsequently cancelled or forfeited. As of June 30, 2013, 689,668 shares were available for grant.
All grants outstanding under the Griffon Corporation 2001 Stock Option Plan, 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and Outside Director Stock Award Plan will continue under their terms; no additional awards will be granted under such plans.
During the first quarter of 2013, Griffon granted 883,500 restricted stock awards with vesting periods up to four years, 829,100 of which are also subject to certain performance conditions, with a total fair value of $9,433, or a weighted average fair value of $10.68 per share.
11
During the second quarter of 2013, Griffon granted 278,330 restricted stock awards with vesting periods up to four years, 241,667 of which are also subject to certain performance conditions, with a total fair value of $3,333, or a weighted average fair value of $11.97 per share.
During the third quarter of 2013, Griffon granted 43,500 restricted stock awards with vesting periods up to four years, which are also subject to certain performance conditions, with a total fair value of $506 or a weighted average fair value of $11.63 per share.
For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, stock based compensation expense totaled $3,029 and $9,327, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, stock based compensation expense totaled $2,691 and $7,599, respectively.
In August 2011, Griffons Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50,000 of Griffons outstanding common stock. Under this repurchase program, the Company may purchase shares of its common stock, depending upon market conditions, in open market or privately negotiated transactions, including pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan. In the first quarter of 2013, Griffon purchased 723,630 shares of common stock, for a total of $7,331, or $10.13 per share, pursuant to the repurchase program. In the second quarter of 2013, Griffon purchased 881,998 shares of common stock, for a total of $10,265, or $11.64 per share pursuant to the repurchase program. In the third quarter of 2013, Griffon purchased 272,698 shares of common stock, for a total of $3,014, or $11.05 per share pursuant to the repurchase program. As of June 30, 2013, Griffon has purchased 3,230,771 shares of common stock, for a total of $32,299, or $10.00 per share; $17,701 remains under the $50,000 authorization.
In addition to the repurchases under the $50,000 program, during the third quarter, 53,459 shares, with a market value of $566, or $10.58 per share, were withheld to settle employee taxes due upon the vesting of restricted stock. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, 432,116 shares, with a market value of $5,079, or $11.75 per share, were withheld to settle employee taxes due upon the vesting of restricted stock.
NOTE 10 EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
Basic EPS was calculated by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS was calculated by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus additional common shares that could be issued in connection with stock based compensation. The 2023 Notes and the 2017 Notes were anti-dilutive due to the conversion price being greater than the weighted-average stock price during the periods presented.

Griffon evaluates performance and allocates resources based on each segments operating results before interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, unallocated amounts (mainly corporate overhead), restructuring charges, acquisition-related expenses, and gains (losses) from pension settlement and debt extinguishment, as applicable (Segment adjusted EBITDA). Griffon believes this information is useful to investors for the same reason.

Effective January 1, 2012, the Clopay Pension Plan merged with the Ames True Temper, Inc. Pension Plan. The merged Pension Plan was renamed the Clopay Ames True Temper Pension Plan.
In the first quarter of 2013, Selling, general and administrative expenses included a $2,142, non-cash, pension settlement loss resulting from the lump-sum buyout of certain participants balances in the Companys defined benefit plan. The buyouts, funded by the pension plan, reduced the Companys net pension liability by $3,472 and increased Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) by $3,649.
NOTE 13 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance requiring the presentation of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. The new accounting rules eliminate the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders equity. The new accounting rules were effective for the Company beginning in 2013 and did not have a material effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations and the Company presented comparable financial results.
In September 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite life intangibles. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in 2013 and did not have an impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance requiring enhanced disclosures for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance does not amend any existing requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in the financial statements. This guidance is effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. As this new guidance is related to presentation only, the implementation of this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014 will not have a material effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 15 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER RELATED CHARGES
In January 2013, ATT announced its intention to close certain of its manufacturing facilities and consolidate affected operations primarily into its Camp Hill and Carlisle, PA locations. The intended actions, to be completed by the end of fiscal 2014, will improve manufacturing and distribution efficiencies, allow for in-sourcing of certain production currently performed by third party suppliers, and improve material flow and absorption of fixed costs.
ATT anticipates incurring pre-tax restructuring and related exit costs approximating $8,000, comprised of cash charges of $4,000 and non-cash, asset-related charges of $4,000; the cash charges will include $3,000 for one-time termination benefits and other personnel-related costs and $1,000 for facility exit costs. ATT expects $20,000 in capital expenditures in connection with this initiative and, to date, has incurred $5,388 and $8,385 in restructuring costs and capital expenditures, respectively.
During the second quarter of 2013, BPC completed the consolidation of its Auburn, Washington facility into its Russia, Ohio facility.
HBP recognized $854 and $6,525, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, and nil and $273, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, in restructuring and other related exit costs. In 2013, restructuring and other related charges primarily related to one-time termination benefits, facility costs, other personnel costs and asset impairment charges related to the ATT and BPC plant consolidation initiatives. In 2012, restructuring and other related charges primarily related to one-time termination benefits and other personnel costs at ATT.
During the second quarter of 2013, PPC Europe announced plans to exit low margin products and eliminate approximately 80 positions, resulting in a restructuring cash charge of $4,773.
During the third quarter of 2013, Telephonics recognized $750 in restructuring costs in connection with the termination of a facility lease. The facility was vacated as a result of the headcount reductions and changes in organizational structure Telephonics undertook in the past two years. In the first quarter of 2012, Telephonics recognized $1,522 of restructuring and other related charges, primarily for one-time termination benefits and other personnel costs in conjunction with changes to its organizational structure.

NOTE 17 WARRANTY LIABILITY
Telephonics offers warranties against product defects for periods generally ranging from one to two years, depending on the specific product and terms of the customer purchase agreement. Typical warranties require Telephonics to repair or replace the defective products during the warranty period at no cost to the customer. At the time revenue is recognized, Griffon records a liability for warranty costs, estimated based on historical experience and periodically assesses its warranty obligations and adjusts the liability as necessary. ATT offers an express limited warranty for a period of ninety days on all products unless otherwise stated on the product or packaging from the date of original purchase.

NOTE 18 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal and environmental
Department of Environmental Conservation of New York State (DEC), with ISC Properties, Inc. Lightron Corporation (Lightron), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Griffon, once conducted operations at a location in Peekskill in the Town of Cortlandt, New York (the Peekskill Site) owned by ISC Properties, Inc. (ISC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Griffon. ISC sold the Peekskill Site in November 1982.
Subsequently, Griffon was advised by the DEC that random sampling at the Peekskill Site and in a creek near the Peekskill Site indicated concentrations of solvents and other chemicals common to Lightrons prior plating operations. ISC then entered into a consent order with the DEC in 1996 (the Consent Order) to perform a remedial investigation and prepare a feasibility study. After completing the initial remedial investigation pursuant to the Consent Order, ISC was required by the DEC, and did conduct accordingly over the next several years, supplemental remedial investigations, including soil vapor investigations, under the Consent Order.
In April 2009, the DEC advised ISCs representatives that both the DEC and the New York State Department of Health had reviewed and accepted an August 2007 Remedial Investigation Report and an Additional Data Collection Summary Report dated January 30, 2009. With the acceptance of these reports, ISC completed the remedial investigation required under the Consent Order and was authorized, accordingly, by the DEC to conduct the Feasibility Study required by the Consent Order. Pursuant to the requirements of the Consent Order and its obligations thereunder, ISC, without acknowledging any responsibility to perform any remediation at the Site, submitted to the DEC in August 2009, a draft feasibility study which recommended for the soil, groundwater and sediment medias, remediation alternatives having a current net capital cost value, in the aggregate, of approximately $5,000. In February 2011, DEC advised ISC it has accepted and approved the feasibility study. Accordingly, ISC has no further obligations under the consent order.
Upon acceptance of the feasibility study, DEC issued a Proposed Remedial Action Plan (PRAP) that sets forth the proposed remedy for the site. The PRAP accepted the recommendation contained in the feasibility study for remediation of the soil and groundwater medias, but selected a different remediation alternative for the sediment medium. The approximate cost and the current net capital cost value of the remedy proposed by DEC in the PRAP is approximately $10,000. After receiving public comments on the PRAP, the DEC issued a Record of Decision (ROD) that set forth the specific remedies selected and responded to public comments. The remedies selected by the DEC in the ROD are the same remedies as those set forth in the PRAP.
It is now expected that DEC will enter into negotiations with potentially responsible parties to request they undertake performance of the remedies selected in the ROD, and if such parties do not agree to implement such remedies, then the State may use State Superfund money to remediate the Peekskill site and seek recovery of costs from such parties. Griffon does not acknowledge any responsibility to perform any remediation at the Peekskill Site.

Improper Advertisement Claim involving Union Tools Products. Since December 2004, a customer of ATT has been named in various litigation matters relating to certain Union Tools products. The plaintiffs in those litigation matters have asserted causes of action against the customer of ATT for improper advertisement to end consumers. The allegations suggest that advertisements led the consumers to believe that Union Tools hand tools were wholly manufactured within boundaries of the United States. The complaints assert various causes of action against the customer of ATT under federal and state law, including common law fraud. At some point, likely once the litigation against the customer of ATT ends, the customer may seek indemnity (including recovery of its legal fees and costs) against ATT for an unspecified amount. Presently, ATT cannot estimate the amount of loss, if any, if the customer were to seek legal recourse against ATT.
Department of Environmental Conservation of New York State, regarding Frankfort, NY site. During fiscal 2009, an underground fuel tank with surrounding soil contamination was discovered at the Frankfort, N.Y. site, which is the result of historical facility operations prior to ATTs ownership. While ATT was actively working with the DEC and the New York State Department of Health to define remediation requirements relative to the underground fuel tank, the DEC took the position that ATT was responsible to remediate other types of contamination on the site. After negotiations with the DEC, on August 15, 2011, ATT executed an Order on Consent with the DEC. The Order is without admission or finding of liability or acknowledgement that there has been a release of hazardous substances at the site. Importantly, the Order does not waive any rights that ATT has under a 1991 Consent Judgment entered into between the DEC and a predecessor of ATT relating to the site. The Order requires that ATT identify Areas of Concern at the site, and formulate a strategy to investigate and remedy both on and off site conditions in compliance with applicable environmental law. At the conclusion of the remedy phase of the remediation to the satisfaction of the DEC, the DEC will issue a Certificate of Completion. On August 1, 2012, a fire occurred during the course of demolition of certain structures at the Frankfort, NY site, requiring cleanup and additional remediation under the oversight of the DEC. Demolition of the structures on the property has been substantially completed. The DEC has inspected the progress of the work and is satisfied with the results thus far. On February 12, 2013, the DEC issued comments to the Remedial Investigation Work Plan previously submitted by ATT in October 2011, and in response, ATT issued a Revised Remedial Investigation Work Plan. Completion of the remedial investigation is dependent on timing of the DEC approval; no additional comments have been provided by the DEC to date.
U.S. Government investigations and claims
Defense contracts and subcontracts, including Griffons contracts and subcontracts, are subject to audit and review by various agencies and instrumentalities of the United States government, including among others, the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), the Defense Criminal Investigative Service (DCIS), and the Department of Justice which has responsibility for asserting claims on behalf of the U.S. government. In addition to ongoing audits, pursuant to an administrative subpoena Griffon is currently providing information to the U.S. Department of Defense Office of the Inspector General. No claim has been asserted against Griffon, and Griffon is unaware of any material financial exposure in connection with the Inspector Generals inquiry.
In general, departments and agencies of the U.S. Government have the authority to investigate various transactions and operations of Griffon, and the results of such investigations may lead to administrative, civil or criminal proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which could be fines, penalties, repayments or compensatory or treble damages. U.S. Government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts or the loss of export privileges for a company or an operating division or subdivision. Suspension or debarment could have material adverse effect on Telephonics because of its reliance on government contracts.
General legal
Griffon is subject to various laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and is a party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on facts presently known to it, that the resolution of the matters above and such other matters will not have a material adverse effect on Griffons consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 2 - Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Griffon Corporation (the Company or Griffon) is a diversified management and holding company that conducts business through wholly-owned subsidiaries. Griffon oversees the operations of its subsidiaries, allocates resources among them and manages their capital structures. Griffon provides direction and assistance to its subsidiaries in connection with acquisition and growth opportunities as well as in connection with divestitures. Griffon, to further diversify, also seeks out, evaluates and, when appropriate, will acquire additional businesses that offer potentially attractive returns on capital.
Griffon currently conducts its operations through three businesses: Home & Building Products (HBP), Telephonics Corporation (Telephonics) and Clopay Plastic Products Company (Plastics).
|
|
|
|
HBP consists of two companies, Ames True Temper, Inc. (ATT) and Clopay Building Products Company, Inc. (CBP): |
|
|
|
|
|
- |
ATT is a global provider of non-powered landscaping products that make work easier for homeowners and professionals. |
|
|
|
|
- |
CBP is a leading manufacturer and marketer of residential, commercial and industrial garage doors to professional installing dealers and major home center retail chains. |
|
|
|
|
Telephonics designs, develops and manufactures high-technology integrated information, communication and sensor system solutions for military and commercial markets worldwide. |
|
|
|
|
|
Plastics is an international leader in the development and production of embossed, laminated and printed specialty plastic films used in a variety of hygienic, health-care and industrial applications. |
In January 2013, ATT announced its intention to close certain of its manufacturing facilities and consolidate affected operations primarily into its Camp Hill and Carlisle, PA locations. The intended actions, to be completed by the end of fiscal 2014, will improve manufacturing and distribution efficiencies, allow for in-sourcing of certain production currently performed by third party suppliers, and improve material flow and absorption of fixed costs. Management estimates that, upon completion, these actions will result in annual cash savings exceeding $10,000, based on current operating levels.
ATT anticipates incurring pre-tax restructuring and related exit costs approximating $8,000, comprised of cash charges of $4,000 and non-cash, asset-related charges of $4,000; the cash charges will include $3,000 for one-time termination benefits and other personnel-related costs and $1,000 for facility exit costs. ATT expects $20,000 in capital expenditures in connection with this initiative and, to date, has incurred $5,388 and $8,385 in restructuring costs and capital expenditures, respectively.
In the first quarter of 2013, Selling, general and administrative expenses included a $2,142, non-cash, pension settlement loss resulting from the lump-sum buyout of certain participants balances in the Companys defined benefit plan. The buyouts, funded by the pension plan, reduced the Companys net pension liability by $3,472.
On October 17, 2011, Griffon acquired the pots and planters business of Southern Sales & Marketing Group, Inc. for $22,432. The acquired business, which markets its products under the Southern PatioTM brand (Southern Patio), is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of landscape accessories. Southern Patios results of operations are not included in the Griffon consolidated statement of operations or cash flows, or footnotes relating thereto prior to October 17, 2011.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, revenue increased $3,396 or 1%, compared to the prior year quarter. ATT revenue decreased 2% in comparison to the prior year quarter primarily due to lower demand, driven by cold and wet weather conditions in North America. For the quarter, CBP revenue increased 5%, primarily due to higher volume and favorable mix.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, Segment operating profit was $11,549 compared to $17,482 in the prior year quarter. The decline resulted primarily from the lower ATT revenue, which also affected absorption of manufacturing expenses, partially offset by the benefit of higher volume and favorable mix at CBP. ATT also had manufacturing inefficiencies in connection with its plant consolidation initiative. These inefficiencies are expected to continue until the initiative is completed in 2014. Segment depreciation and amortization increased $726 from the prior year period and the current year quarter included $854 of restructuring charges primarily related to the previously announced manufacturing and operations consolidation initiative at ATT.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, revenue decreased $15,670, or 2%, compared to the prior year period. ATT revenue decreased 6%, mainly driven by cold and wet spring weather conditions in North America and reduced snow tool sales. For ATT, both 2012 and 2013 year to date sales were impacted by lack of snow and resultant reduced sales of snow tools; retailers held high levels of snow tool inventory carried over from the prior year, further affecting 2013 snow tool sales. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, CBP revenue increased 2% from the prior year period, primarily due to somewhat higher volume and favorable mix.
29
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, Segment operating profit was $22,655 compared to $35,412 in the prior year period. The current year period included $6,525 of restructuring charges primarily related to the previously announced manufacturing and operations consolidation initiative at ATT. Excluding restructuring charges, current year Segment operating profit was $29,180. The decrease from the prior year resulted from the impact of lower ATT revenue, which also affected absorption of manufacturing expenses and manufacturing inefficiencies arising in connection with the plant consolidation initiative, partially offset by reduced ATT warehouse and distribution costs, other cost control initiatives and $873 in Byrd Amendment receipts (anti-dumping compensation from the U.S. government). CBP higher volume, favorable mix and improved distribution and manufacturing efficiencies contributed to the reported profit. Segment depreciation and amortization increased $3,521 from the prior year period.
In January 2013, ATT announced its intention to close certain of its manufacturing facilities and consolidate affected operations primarily into its Camp Hill and Carlisle, PA locations. The intended actions, to be completed by the end of fiscal 2014, will improve manufacturing and distribution efficiencies, allow for in-sourcing of certain production currently performed by third party suppliers, and improve material flow and absorption of fixed costs.
ATT anticipates incurring pre-tax restructuring and related exit costs approximating $8,000, comprised of cash charges of $4,000 and non-cash, asset-related charges of $4,000; the cash charges will include $3,000 for one-time termination benefits and other personnel-related costs and $1,000 for facility exit costs. ATT expects $20,000 in capital expenditures in connection with this initiative and, to date, has incurred $5,388 and $8,385 in restructuring costs and capital expenditures, respectively.
During the second quarter of 2013, BPC completed the consolidation of its Auburn, Washington facility into its Russia, Ohio facility.
HBP recognized $854 and $6,525, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, and nil and $273, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, in restructuring and other related exit costs. In 2013, restructuring and other related charges primarily related to one-time termination benefits, facility and other personnel costs, and asset impairment charges related to the ATT and BPC plant consolidation initiatives. In 2012, restructuring and other related charges primarily related to one-time termination benefits and other personnel costs at ATT.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, revenue increased $28,881 or 29% compared to the prior year quarter. The current and prior year quarters included $20,033 and $2,733 respectively, of revenue related to electronic warfare programs where Telephonics serves as a contract manufacturer; excluding revenue from these programs, current quarter revenue increased 12% from the prior year quarter, primarily due to the timing of work performed on Multi-mode Surveillance Radar (MMSR) contracts.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, Segment operating profit decreased $3,521, or 25%, and operating profit margin decreased 590 basis points compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in Segment operating profit was primarily due to lower gross profit associated with product mix and a restructuring charge, which were partially offset by lower than anticipated expenditures associated with the timing of research and development (R&D) initiatives and proposal efforts. The prior year quarter benefitted from higher gross profit and favorable manufacturing efficiencies, both of which were primarily due to an increased level of Light Airborne Multi-purpose Systems Multi Mode Radar (“LAMPS MMR”) deliveries.
30
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, revenue increased $28,057 or 9% compared to the prior year period. The current and prior year periods included $33,257 and $22,255, respectively, of revenue related to electronic warfare programs where Telephonics serves as a contract manufacturer; excluding revenue from these programs, current period revenue increased 6% from the prior year period, primarily due to the timing of work performed on MMSR contracts.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, Segment operating profit decreased $1,181, or 3%. Excluding the current and prior year restructuring charges, segment operating profit decreased 5% and operating margin decreased 160 basis points compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower gross profit associated with product mix, which was partially offset by lower than anticipated expenditures associated with the timing of R&D initiatives and proposal efforts. The prior year period also benefitted from the LAMPS MMR profitability discussed above.
During the third quarter of 2013, Telephonics recognized $750 in restructuring costs in connection with the termination of a facility lease. The facility was vacated as a result of the headcount reductions and changes in organizational structure Telephonics undertook in the past two years. In 2012 and 2011, Telephonics recognized $3,815 and $3,046 of restructuring charges in connection with two discrete voluntary early retirement plans and other costs related to changes in organizational structure and facilities; such charges were primarily personnel-related, reducing headcount by 185 employees over the two-year period. In the nine months ended June 30, 2012, Telephonics recognized $1,522 of restructuring and other related charges primarily for one-time termination benefits and other personnel costs, in conjunction with changes to its organizational structure.
During the current quarter, Telephonics was awarded several new contracts and incremental funding on existing contracts approximating $93,400. Contract backlog was $440,000 at June 30, 2013 with 67% expected to be realized in the next 12 months. Backlog was $451,000 at September 30, 2012 and $422,000 at June 30, 2012. Backlog is defined as unfilled firm orders for products and services for which funding has been both authorized and appropriated by the customer or Congress, in the case of the U.S. government agencies.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, revenue decreased $2,697, or 2%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease reflected lower volume (5%), a portion of which was attributable to Plastics exiting certain low margin products, partially offset by favorable mix (2%) and the pass through of higher resin costs in customer selling prices (1%). Plastics adjusts selling prices based on underlying resin costs on a delayed basis.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, Segment operating profit increased $1,895 compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was mainly due to product mix, continued efficiency improvements and a $500 favorable resin benefit.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, revenue decreased $3,778, or 1%, compared to the prior year period. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange translation, revenue increased 1% mainly due to favorable mix (1%) and the pass through of higher resin costs in customer selling prices (1%), partially offset by lower volume (1%), a portion of which was attributable to Plastics exiting certain low margin products.
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, Segment operating profit increased $1,080 compared to the prior year period. Excluding the restructuring charges, current year Segment operating profit increased $5,853 due to product mix and continued efficiency improvements, partially offset by approximately $4,700 unfavorable impact of higher resin costs, which had not yet been reflected in increased selling prices.
31
In February 2013, Plastics announced a restructuring project, primarily in Europe, to exit low margin products and eliminate approximately 80 positions, resulting in the incurrence of restructuring charges of $4,773, primarily related to one-time termination benefits and other personnel costs. This project is substantially complete.
Unallocated
For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, unallocated amounts totaled $6,573 compared to $7,253 in the prior year; for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, unallocated amounts totaled $22,140 compared to $20,041 in the prior year period. The fluctuations in the current quarter and nine month period compared to the respective prior year periods is primarily related to incentive and stock based compensation costs.
Segment Depreciation and Amortization
Segment depreciation and amortization increased $906 and $4,094, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 in comparison to the comparable prior year periods primarily due to capital spending.
Other income (expense)
For the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, Other income (expense) included $168 and ($707) respectively, of currency exchange gains (losses) in connection with the translation of receivables and payables denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of Griffon and its subsidiaries as well as $12 and ($39), respectively, of investment income (loss).
For the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, Other income (expense) included ($299) and ($1,375) respectively, of currency exchange gains (losses) in connection with the translation of receivables and payables denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of Griffon and its subsidiaries as well as $365 and $133, respectively, of investment income (loss).
Provision for income taxes
The effective tax rates for the quarter and nine-month period ended June 30, 2013 were 54.0% and 53.6%, respectively, compared to 39.7% and 45.0% in the comparable prior year periods, respectively. The rates include discrete benefits in the current and prior year quarter of $1,495 and $1,626, respectively, and in the current and prior year nine-month periods of $1,859 and $1,626, respectively, primarily resulting from the release of previously established reserves for uncertain tax positions on conclusion of certain tax audits, and benefits arising on the filing of tax returns in various jurisdictions.
Excluding discrete items, the effective tax rates for the quarter and nine-month period ended June 30, 2013 were 73.1% and 79.4%, respectively, compared to 50.5% and 51.6% in the comparable prior year periods, respectively. Rates in all periods reflect the impact of permanent differences not deductible in determining taxable income, mainly limited deductibility of restricted stock, tax reserves and of changes in earnings mix between domestic and non-domestic operations, all of which are material relative to the level of pretax result.
Stock based compensation
For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, stock based compensation expense totaled $3,029 and $9,327, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, stock based compensation expense totaled $2,691 and $7,599, respectively.
Discontinued operations Installation Services
There was no revenue or income from discontinued operations of the Installation Services business for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Management assesses Griffons liquidity in terms of its ability to generate cash to fund its operating, investing and financing activities. Significant factors affecting liquidity include: cash flows from operating activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions, dispositions, bank lines of credit and the ability to attract long-term capital under satisfactory terms. Griffon remains in a strong financial position with sufficient liquidity available for reinvestment in existing businesses and strategic acquisitions while managing its capital structure on both a short-term and long-term basis.

Cash provided by continuing operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,554 compared to $30,347 in the prior year. Current assets net of current liabilities, excluding short-term debt and cash, increased to $427,269 at June 30, 2013 compared to $360,881 at September 30, 2012, primarily due to increases in accounts receivable and contract costs and recognized income not yet billed, and a decrease in accrued liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in inventory.
During the nine months ended June 30, 2013, Griffon used cash for investing activities of $44,560 compared to $79,846 in the prior year; the October 2011 acquisition of Southern Patio for $22,432 was included in the prior year. Current year capital expenditures decreased $11,809 from the comparable prior year period. Griffon expects capital spending to be in the range of $65,000 to $70,000 for 2013.
During the nine months ended June 30, 2013, cash used in financing activities totaled $40,552 compared to $20,255 in the prior year. During the first, second and third quarters of 2013, the Board of Directors approved quarterly cash dividends of $0.025 per common share, which were paid on December 26, 2012, March 27, 2013 and May 28, 2013, to holders of common stock as of close of business on November 29, 2012, February 27, 2013 and June 26, 2013, respectively. Griffon repurchased common stock of $25,689 and $5,670 in the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At June 30, 2013, $17,701 remains under Griffons Board authorized repurchase program.
On August 6, 2013, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.025 per share, payable on September 25, 2013 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 27, 2013.
Payments related to Telephonics revenue are received in accordance with the terms of development and production subcontracts; certain of such receipts are progress or performance based payments. Plastics customers are generally substantial industrial companies whose payments have been steady, reliable and made in accordance with the terms governing such sales. Plastics sales satisfy orders that are received in advance of production, and where payment terms are established in advance. With respect to HBP, there have been no material adverse impacts on payment for sales.
A small number of customers account for, and are expected to continue to account for, a substantial portion of Griffons consolidated revenue. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013:
|
|
|
|
|
The United States Government and its agencies, through either prime or subcontractor relationships, represented 19% of Griffons consolidated revenue and 78% of Telephonics revenue. |
|
|
Procter & Gamble Co. represented 14% of Griffons consolidated revenue and 46% of Plastics revenue. |
|
|
The Home Depot represented 12% of Griffons consolidated revenue and 25% of HBPs revenue. |
33
No other customer exceeded 9% of consolidated revenue. Future operating results will continue to substantially depend on the success of Griffons largest customers and our ongoing relationships with them. Orders from these customers are subject to fluctuation and may be reduced materially. The loss of all or a portion of volume from any one of these customers could have a material adverse impact on Griffons liquidity and operations.

On March 17, 2011, in an unregistered offering through a private placement under Rule 144A, Griffon issued, at par, $550,000 of 7.125% Senior Notes due in 2018 (Senior Notes); interest is payable semi-annually. On August 9, 2011, Griffon exchanged all of the Senior Notes for substantially identical Senior Notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933 via an exchange offer.
Proceeds from the Senior Notes were used to pay down outstanding borrowings under a senior secured term loan facility and two senior secured revolving credit facilities of certain of the Companys subsidiaries. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Griffon guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries, and are subject to certain covenants, limitations and restrictions. The fair value of the Senior Notes approximated $594,000 on June 30, 2013 based upon quoted market prices (level 1 inputs).
On March 28, 2013, Griffon amended and increased the amount available under its Revolving Credit Facility (Credit Agreement) from $200,000 to $225,000 and extended its maturity from March 17, 2016 to March 28, 2018. The facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a limit of $60,000, a multi-currency sub-facility of $50,000 and a swingline sub-facility with a limit of $30,000. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be repaid and re-borrowed at any time, subject to final maturity of the facility or the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement. Interest is payable on borrowings at either a LIBOR or base rate benchmark rate, in each case without a floor, plus an applicable margin, which adjusts based on financial performance. The current margins are 1.25% for base rate loans and 2.25% for LIBOR loans. The Credit Agreement has certain financial maintenance tests including a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum senior secured leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The Credit Agreement also includes certain restrictions, such as limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and liens and the making of restricted payments and investments. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Griffons material domestic subsidiaries and are secured, on a first priority basis, by substantially all assets of the Company and the guarantors.
At June 30, 2013, there were $25,867 of standby letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement; $199,133 was available, subject to certain covenants, for borrowing at that date.
34
On December 21, 2009, Griffon issued $100,000 principal of 4% convertible subordinated notes due 2017 (the 2017 Notes). The current conversion rate of the 2017 Notes is 67.8495 shares of Griffons common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, corresponding to a conversion price of $14.74 per share. When a cash dividend is declared that would result in an adjustment to the conversion ratio of less than 1%, any adjustment to the conversion ratio is deferred until the first to occur of (i) actual conversion, (ii) the 42nd trading day prior to maturity of the notes, and (iii) such time as the cumulative adjustment equals or exceeds 1%. As of June 30, 2013, aggregate dividends since the last conversion price adjustment of $0.05 per share would have resulted in an adjustment to the conversion ratio of approximately 0.44%. At June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, the 2017 Notes had a capital in excess of par component, net of tax, of $15,720. The fair value of the 2017 Notes approximated $106,900 on June 30, 2013 based upon quoted market prices (level 1 inputs).
On December 20, 2010, Griffon entered into two second lien real estate mortgages to secure new loans totaling $11,834. The loans mature in February 2016, are collateralized by the related properties and are guaranteed by Griffon. The loans bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 3% with the option to swap to a fixed rate.
Griffon has other real estate mortgages, collateralized by real property, which bear interest at 6.3% and mature in 2016.
Griffons Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) entered into a loan agreement in August 2010 to borrow $20,000 over a one-year period. The proceeds were used to purchase 1,874,737 shares of Griffon common stock in the open market for $19,973. The loan bears interest at a) LIBOR plus 2.5% or b) the lenders prime rate, at Griffons option. In November 2011, Griffon exercised an option to convert the outstanding loan to a five-year term loan; principal is payable in quarterly installments of $250, beginning December 2011, with a balloon payment of $15,223 due at maturity (November 2016). The loan is secured by shares purchased with the proceeds of the loan, and repayment is guaranteed by Griffon. At June 30, 2013, $18,223 was outstanding.
In addition, the ESOP is party to a loan agreement which requires quarterly principal payments of $156 and interest through the extended expiration date of December 2013 at which time the $3,125 balance of the loan, and any outstanding interest, will be payable. Griffon has the intent and ability to refinance the December 2013 balance, and has classified the balance in Long-Term Debt. The primary purpose of this loan was to purchase 547,605 shares of Griffons common stock in October 2008. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the proceeds of the loan, and repayment is guaranteed by Griffon. The loan bears interest at rates based upon the prime rate or LIBOR. At June 30, 2013, $3,281 was outstanding.
In October 2006, CBP entered into a capital lease totaling $14,290 for real estate in Troy, Ohio. The lease matures in 2021, bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.3%, is secured by a mortgage on the real estate and is guaranteed by Griffon.
In November 2010, Clopay Europe GMBH (Clopay Europe) entered into a 10,000 revolving credit facility and a 20,000 term loan. The facility accrues interest at EURIBOR plus 2.45% per annum and the term loan accrues interest at EURIBOR plus 2.20% per annum. The revolving facility matures in November 2013, but is renewable upon mutual agreement with the bank. In July 2011, the full 20,000 was drawn on the Term Loan, with a portion of the proceeds used to repay borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The term loan is payable in ten equal quarterly installments which began in September 2011, with maturity in December 2013. Under the term loan, Clopay Europe is required to maintain a certain minimum equity to assets ratio and keep leverage below a certain level, defined as the ratio of total debt to EBITDA.
In February 2012, Clopay do Brazil, a subsidiary of Plastics, borrowed $4,000 at a rate of 104.5% of Brazilian CDI (7.7% at June 30, 2013). The loan was used to refinance existing loans, is collateralized by accounts receivable and a 50% guaranty by Plastics and is to be repaid in four equal, semi-annual installments of principal plus accrued interest beginning in August 2012. Clopay do Brazil also maintains lines of credit of approximately $5,000. Interest on borrowings accrue at a rate of Brazilian CDI plus 6.0% (13.7% at June 30, 2013). At June 30, 2013 there was approximately $4,100 borrowed under the lines.
In November 2012, Garant G.P. (Garant) entered into a CAD $15,000 revolving credit facility. The facility accrues interest at LIBOR or the Bankers Acceptance Rate plus 1.3% per annum (1.49% and 2.45% as of June 30, 2013). The revolving facility matures in November 2015. Garant is required to maintain a certain minimum equity. At June 30, 2013, there were no borrowings under the revolving credit facility with CAD $15,000 available for borrowing.
At September 30, 2012, Griffon had $532 of 4% convertible subordinated notes due 2023 (2023 Notes) outstanding. On April 15, 2013, the 2023 Notes were redeemed at par plus accrued interest.
At June 30, 2013, Griffon and its subsidiaries were in compliance with the terms and covenants of its credit and loan agreements.
35
During the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, Griffon used cash for discontinued operations of $486 and $1,690, respectively, related to settling remaining Installation Services liabilities.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of Griffons consolidated financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (GAAP) requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and
subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates can also affect supplemental
information contained in public disclosures of Griffon, including information
regarding contingencies, risk and its financial condition. These estimates,
assumptions and judgments are evaluated on an ongoing basis and based on
historical experience, current conditions and various other assumptions, and
form the basis for estimating the carrying values of assets and liabilities, as
well as identifying and assessing the accounting treatment for commitments and
contingencies. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates. There
have been no changes in Griffons critical accounting policies from September
30, 2012.
Griffons significant accounting policies and procedures are
explained in the Management Discussion and Analysis section in the Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012. In the selection of
the critical accounting policies, the objective is to properly reflect the
financial position and results of operations for each reporting period in a
consistent manner that can be understood by the reader of the financial
statements. Griffon considers an estimate to be critical if it is subjective
and if changes in the estimate using different assumptions would result in a
material impact on the financial position or results of operations of Griffon.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issues, from time to time, new financial accounting standards, staff positions and emerging issues task force consensus. See the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these matters.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, especially Managements Discussion and Analysis, contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements relate to, among other things, income, earnings, cash flows, revenue, changes in operations, operating improvements, industries in which Griffon Corporation (the Company or Griffon) operates and the United States and global economies.

These risks and uncertainties include, among others: current economic conditions and uncertainties in the housing, credit and capital markets; Griffons ability to achieve expected savings from cost control, integration and disposal initiatives; the ability to identify and successfully consummate and integrate value-adding acquisition opportunities; increasing competition and pricing pressures in the markets served by Griffons operating companies; the ability of Griffons operating companies to expand into new geographic and product markets and to anticipate and meet customer demands for new products and product enhancements and innovations; reduced military spending by the government on projects for which Telephonics Corporation supplies products, including as a result of sequestration which took effect in March 2013; increases in the cost of raw materials such as resin and steel; changes in customer demand or loss of a material customer at one of Griffons operating companies; the potential impact of seasonal variations and uncertain weather patterns on certain of Griffons businesses; political events that could impact the worldwide economy; a downgrade in Griffons credit ratings; changes in international economic conditions including interest rate and currency exchange fluctuations; the reliance by certain of Griffons businesses on particular third party suppliers and manufacturers to meet customer demands; the relative mix of products and services offered by Griffons businesses, which impacts margins and operating efficiencies; short-term capacity constraints or prolonged excess capacity; unforeseen developments in contingencies, such as litigation; unfavorable results of government agency contract audits of Telephonics Corporation; Griffons ability to adequately protect and maintain the validity of patent and other intellectual property rights; the cyclical nature of the businesses of certain of Griffons operating companies; and possible terrorist threats and actions and their impact on the global economy. Additional important factors that could cause the statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the actual results of operations or financial condition of Griffon to differ are discussed under the caption Item 1A. Risk Factors and Special Notes Regarding Forward-Looking Statements in Griffons Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Griffons business activities necessitates the management of various financial and market risks, including those related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency rates and commodity prices.
Interest Rates
Griffons exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to variable interest rate debt and investments in cash and equivalents.
The revolving credit facility and certain other of Griffons credit facilities have a LIBOR-based variable interest rate. Due to the current and expected level of borrowings under these facilities, a 100 basis point change in LIBOR would not have a material impact on Griffons results of operations or liquidity.
Foreign Exchange
Griffon conducts business in various non-U.S. countries, primarily in Canada, Germany, Brazil, United Kingdom, Turkey, China, Sweden, Australia and Mexico; therefore, changes in the value of the currencies of these countries affect the financial position and cash flows when translated into U.S. Dollars. Griffon has generally accepted the exposure to exchange rate movements relative to its non-U.S. operations. Griffon may, from time to time, hedge its currency risk exposures. A change of 10% or less in the value of all applicable foreign currencies would not have a material effect on Griffons financial position and cash flows.
Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of Griffons Chief
Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Griffons
disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e), were evaluated as of the end of the period covered by this
report. Based on that evaluation, Griffons CEO and CFO concluded that
Griffons disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable
assurance level.
During the period covered by this report, there were no
changes in Griffons internal control over financial reporting which materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Griffons internal
control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Griffon believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all controls issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Griffons disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

The risks described in Griffons Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing Griffon. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to Griffon or that Griffon currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect Griffons business, financial condition and/or operating results. |
