NOTES TO INTERIM
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Basis of Presentation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of UFP Technologies, Inc. (the Company) presented herein, have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2009, included in the Companys 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2010, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
The results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.
(2) New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to change financial reporting of enterprises with variable interest entities (VIEs) to require an enterprise to qualitatively assess the determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE based on whether the enterprise (1) has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance and (2) has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Also, the guidance requires an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary and amends the events that trigger a reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE. Enhanced disclosures are also required to provide information about an enterprises involvement in a VIE. This guidance was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2010, and did not have a significant impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB amended previously released guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. The amendment requires disclosure of transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and also requires more detailed disclosure about the activity within Level 3 fair value measurements. The required disclosures regarding transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements were effective for the Company as of January 1, 2010, and did not have a significant impact on the Companys disclosures. The amendments
requirements related to Level 3 disclosures are effective for the Company as of January 1, 2011. This guidance affects new disclosures only and will have no impact on the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements.
(3) Supplemental Cash Flow Information
Cash paid for interest and income taxes is as follows:
30-Jun -2009
Interest
92,440
147,214
Income taxes, net of refunds
2,769,000
226,500
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, the Company permitted the exercise of stock options with exercise proceeds paid with the Companys stock (cashless exercises) totaling $343,750.
(4) Investment in Affiliated Partnership
The Company has a 26.32% ownership interest in a realty limited partnership, United Development Company Limited (UDT), which owns and leases the Kissimmee, Florida, and Decatur, Alabama, manufacturing facilities to the Company. Because UDT derives all of its revenue from the Company in the form of rental payments, the Company has determined that UDT is a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Company has consolidated the financial statements of UDT. The creditors of UDT have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. Included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are the following UDT amounts:
30-Jun -2010
31-Dec-2009

(5) Fair Value Accounting
Financial instruments recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, or disclosed at fair value in the footnotes, are categorized below based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities are as follows:
Level 1 Valued based on unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2 Valued based on either directly or indirectly observable prices for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instruments anticipated life.
7
Level 3 Valued based on managements best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
The Companys assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit, both considered cash equivalents, which are categorized by the levels discussed above and in the table below:
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Total
Money market funds
50,000
Certificates of deposit
3,000,000
3,050,000
100,000
3,100,000
As of June 30, 2010, the Company does not have any significant non-recurring measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. The Company may have additional disclosure requirements in the event an impairment of the Companys nonfinancial assets occurs in a future period.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments
The Company has other financial instruments, such as accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued taxes and other expenses, which are stated at carrying amounts that approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount of the Companys long-term debt approximates fair value as the interest rate on the debt approximates the Companys current incremental borrowing rate.
(6) Share-Based Compensation
Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employees requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).
The Company issues share-based payments through several plans, which are described in detail in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. The compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans is as follows:
Selling, general & administrative expense
375,786
287,826
Total share-based compensation expense
8
The total income tax benefit recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income for share-based compensation arrangements was approximately $136,000 and $104,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively, and approximately $206,000 and $196,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively.
The following is a summary of stock option activity under all plans for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010:

During the six months ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, the total intrinsic value of all options exercised (i.e., the difference between the market price on the exercise date and the price paid by the employees to exercise the options) was $1,747,962 and $2,725, respectively, and the total amount of consideration received from the exercised options was $655,627 and $8,875, respectively.
At its discretion, the Company allows option holders to surrender previously owned common stock in lieu of paying the exercise price and withholding taxes. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, 62,202 shares were surrendered at a market price of $10.42. No shares were surrendered during the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.
During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, the Company recognized compensation expenses related to stock options granted to directors and employees of $163,244 and $114,989, respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, the Company recognized compensation expense of $170,753 and $134,964, respectively.
On February 19, 2010, the Companys Compensation Committee approved the issuance of 25,000 shares of common stock to the Companys Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President under the 2003 Incentive Plan. The shares will be issued on or before December 31, 2010. The Company has recorded compensation expense of $48,125 and $96,250 during the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively, based on the grant date price of $7.70 at February 19, 2010.

During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, the Company recorded compensation expense related to RSUs of $303,621 and $357,539, respectively.
It has been the Companys practice to allow executive officers to take a portion of their earned bonuses in the form of the Companys common stock. The value of the stock received by executive officers, measured at the closing price on the date of grant, was $79,248 and $183,500 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, respectively.

(8) Preferred Stock
On March 18, 2009, the Company declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a Right) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, on March 20, 2009, to the stockholders of record on that date. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of the Companys share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Preferred Share), at a price of $25 per one one-thousandth of a Preferred Share subject to adjustment and the terms of the Rights Agreement. The Rights expire on March 19, 2019.
(9) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share computations are based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted average of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during each period.
10
The weighted average number of shares used to compute diluted net income per share consisted of the following:
Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic
Weighted average common equivalent shares due to stock options and RSUs
587,149
403,700
622,928
424,943
Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted
The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock awards, including stock options when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the related options during the period. These outstanding stock awards are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been antidilutive. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, the number of stock awards excluded from the computation was 107,118 for both periods. For the three- and six-months periods ended June 30, 2009, the number of stock awards excluded from the computation was 154,139 for both periods.
(10) Segment Reporting
The Company is organized based on the nature of the products and services that it offers. Under this structure, the Company produces products within two distinct segments: Engineered Packaging and Component Products. Within the Engineered Packaging segment, the Company primarily uses polyethylene and polyurethane foams, sheet plastics, and pulp fiber to provide customers with cushion packaging for their products. Within the Component Products segment, the Company primarily uses cross-linked polyethylene foam to provide customers in the automotive, athletic, leisure, and health and beauty industries with custom-designed products for numerous purposes.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on net income.
Inter-segment transactions are uncommon and not material. Therefore, they have not been reflected separately in the financial table below. Revenues from customers outside of the United States are not material. No customer comprised over 10% of the Companys consolidated revenues during the six-month period ended June 30, 2010. All of the Companys assets are located in the United States.

Overview
UFP Technologies is an innovative designer and custom converter of foams, plastics, and fiber products. The Company serves a myriad of markets, but specifically targets opportunities in the medical, aerospace and defense, automotive, computers and electronics, industrial, and consumer markets.
On March 9, 2009, the Company acquired selected assets of the Hillsdale, Michigan, operations of Foamade Industries, Inc. (Foamade), a business specializing in the fabrication of technical urethane foams for a myriad of industries. The Company transitioned the acquired assets to its Grand Rapids, Michigan, plant.
On July 7, 2009, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of E.N. Murray Co. (ENM), a Denver, Colorado-based foam fabricator. ENM specializes in the fabrication of technical urethane foams, primarily for the medical industry. Like the 2008 acquisition of Stephenson & Lawyer, Inc., this acquisition brings to the Company further access and expertise in fabricating technical urethane foams and a seasoned management team.
On August 24, 2009, the Company acquired selected assets of Advanced Materials, Inc. (AMI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Advanced Materials Group, Inc. Located in Rancho Dominguez, California, AMI specialized in the fabrication of technical urethane foams, primarily for the medical industry.
On October 29, 2009, the Companys largest customer, Recticel Interiors North America, filed for bankruptcy protection pursuant to Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code. On October 29, 2009, the Company was owed $897,445 from Recticel, all of which was within contractual payment terms. The Company had not recorded a specific reserve against this receivable in its December 31, 2009, financial statements, as the Company believed that full collection was probable. The entire $897,445 was paid on March 8, 2010. Recticel has since emerged from bankruptcy and the Company has experienced no interruption in orders.
In the first half of 2010, the Company experienced revenue growth from its newly acquired businesses (which are primarily focused on the medical market) and increased demand for automobile interior trim parts, overlaid on a streamlined organization. As a result, the Company significantly increased its net income in the first two quarters of 2010. Sales and net income for the first half of 2010 are up $16.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively, over the comparable 2009 period.
The Companys current strategy includes organic growth and growth through strategic acquisitions.
Sales
Sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, increased 43% to $30.0 million from sales of $21.0 million for the same period in 2009. Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, were $58.7 million or 38% higher than sales of $42.6 million for the same period in 2009. The increases in sales for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, were primarily due to sales from businesses acquired during 2009 of approximately $4.7 million and $10.5 million, respectively (Component Products segment) and increased sales of interior trim parts to the automotive industry of approximately $1.9 million and $4.1 million, respectively (Component Products segment).

Gross Profit
Gross profit as a percentage of sales (gross margin) increased to 30.2% and 28.1% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, from 25.6% and 24.2% for the same periods in 2009. The increase in gross margin is primarily due to the fixed components of cost of sales (overhead) measured against higher sales.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased 22% to $5.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, from $4.4 million for the same period in 2009. SG&A increased 18% to $10.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, from $8.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The increase in SG&A for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to SG&A from newly acquired companies of approximately $790,000 and $1.6 million, respectively (Component Products segment).
As a percentage of sales, SG&A decreased to 18.0% and 17.7% for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, from 21.1% and 20.7%, respectively, for the same three- and six-month periods of 2009. The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of sales in both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to the Companys ability to leverage relatively fixed SG&A costs against higher sales.
Other Expenses
Net interest expense declined for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, to approximately $34,000 and $69,000, respectively, from $54,000 and $136,000, respectively, for the same 2009 periods. This decline is primarily due to lower average borrowings and interest earned on an increased cash position.
The Company recorded a tax expense of approximately 37% of income before income tax expense for both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, compared to an income tax expense of approximately 35% in both the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009. The current period effective tax rate is higher than the 2009 effective tax rate primarily due to the permanent difference in the nature of the gain recorded on the acquisitions during 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company funds its operating expenses, capital requirements, and growth plan through internally generated cash and bank credit facilities.
At June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, the Companys working capital was approximately $33.0 million and $27.7 million, respectively. The increase in working capital for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, is primarily due to increased cash of approximately $4.2 million and a decrease in accrued expenses of approximately $1.1 million caused by income tax and year-end bonus payments partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of approximately $800,000.
Net cash provided by operations for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, was approximately $5.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively. The slight decline in cash generated from operations is primarily due to an increase in net income of approximately $2.9 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and inventories of approximately $467,000 in the six-month
14
period ended June 30, 2010, compared to a decrease in accounts receivable and inventories of approximately $4.4 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. The large reduction in accounts receivable and inventories in the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, was primarily due to soft sales in the first half of 2009.
Cash used in investing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, was approximately $875,000, and was entirely the result of normal additions of manufacturing machinery and equipment.
On January 29, 2009, the Company amended and extended its credit facility with Bank of America, NA. The facility comprises: (i) a revolving credit facility of $17 million; (ii) a term loan of $2.1 million with a seven-year straight-line amortization; (iii) a term loan of $1.8 million with a 20-year straight-line amortization; and (iv) a term loan of $4.0 million with a 20-year straight-line amortization. Extensions of credit under the revolving credit facility are based in part upon accounts receivable and inventory levels. Therefore, the entire $17 million may not be available to the Company. At June 30, 2010, the Company had availability of approximately $15.8 million, based upon collateral levels as of that date. The credit facility calls for interest of LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.0% to 1.5% or, at the option of the Company, the banks prime rate less a margin that ranges from 0.25% to zero. In both cases the applicable margin is dependent upon Company performance. The loans are collateralized by a first priority lien on all of the Companys assets, including its real estate located in Georgetown, Massachusetts, and in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Under the credit facility, the Company is subject to a minimum fixed-charge coverage financial covenant with which it was in compliance at June 30, 2010. The Companys $17 million revolving credit facility matures November 30, 2013; the term loans are all due on January 29, 2016. The interest rate on these facilities was approximately 1.25% at June 30, 2010.
UDT has a mortgage note dated May 22, 2007, collateralized by the Florida facility, which is included within long-term debt in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The note had an original principal balance of $786,000 and calls for 180 monthly payments of $7,147. The interest rate is fixed at approximately 7.2%.
The Company has no significant capital commitments in 2010, but plans on adding capacity to enhance operating efficiencies in its manufacturing plants. The Company may consider additional acquisitions of companies, technologies, or products in 2010 that are complementary to its business. The Company believes that its existing resources, including its revolving credit facility, together with cash generated from operations and funds expected to be available to it through any necessary equipment financing and additional bank borrowings, will be sufficient to fund its cash flow requirements, including capital asset acquisitions, through at least the end of 2010. However, there can be no assurances that such financing will be available at favorable terms, if at all.
Commitments, Contractual Obligations, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The following table summarizes the Companys commitments, contractual obligations, and off-balance sheet arrangements at June 30, 2010, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on its liquidity and cash flow in future periods:

The Company requires cash to pay its operating expenses, purchase capital equipment, and to service the obligations listed above. The Companys principal sources of funds are its operations and its revolving credit facility. Although the Company generated cash from operations during the six-month period ended June 30, 2010, it cannot guarantee that its operations will generate cash in future periods.
ITEM 3:
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The following discussion of the Companys market risk includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Market risk represents the risk of changes in value of a financial instrument caused by fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and equity prices. At June 30, 2010, the Companys cash and cash equivalents consisted of bank accounts in U.S. dollars, and their valuation would not be affected by market risk. The Company has several debt instruments where interest is based upon either the prime rate or LIBOR and, therefore, future operations could be affected by interest rate changes. However, the Company believes that the market risk of the debt is minimal.
ITEM 4:
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, they concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There has been no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
