Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, unless otherwise indicated)
1. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Owens & Minor, Inc. and the subsidiaries it controls (we, us, or our) and contain all adjustments (which are comprised only of normal recurring accruals and use of estimates) necessary to conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). For the consolidated subsidiary in which our ownership is less than 100%, the outside stockholder’s interest is presented as a noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
2. Fair Value
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, financing receivables, accounts payable and financing payables reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market (Level 1) or, if quoted market prices or dealer quotes are not available, on the borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms, credit ratings and average remaining maturities (Level 2). See Note 8 for the fair value of long-term debt.
3. Acquisition
On August 31, 2012, we acquired from Celesio AG (Celesio) all of the voting interests of certain subsidiaries comprising the majority of Celesio’s healthcare third-party logistics business known as the Movianto Group (the acquired portion is referred to herein as Movianto) for consideration of approximately $157 million (€125 million), net of cash acquired and including debt assumed of $2.1 million (primarily capitalized lease obligations). As a result of the acquisition of Movianto, we have entered into third-party logistics for the pharmaceutical and medical device industries in the European market with an existing platform that also expands our ability to serve our U.S.-based manufacturer customers globally.
The purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon our preliminary estimate of their fair values at the date of acquisition, with certain exceptions permitted under GAAP. The purchase price exceeded the preliminary estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets by approximately $25 million, which was allocated to goodwill. The following table presents the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized as of the acquisition date, pending completion of our valuation.

Assets acquired:
Property and equipment
Goodwill
Intangible assets
Other noncurrent assets
Liabilities assumed:
Noncurrent liabilities
Fair value of net assets acquired, net of cash
As previously reported in our 2012 Form 10-K
Measurement period adjustments primarily relate to additional market information obtained regarding acquired assets.
We are amortizing the fair value of acquired intangible assets, primarily customer relationships, over their remaining weighted average useful lives of 9 years.
Goodwill of $24,514 thousand arising from the acquisition consists largely of expected opportunities to provide additional services to existing manufacturer customers and to expand our third-party logistics services globally. All of the goodwill was assigned to our International segment. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities acquired includes financing receivables with a fair value of $106.8 million and financing payables with a fair value of $130.4 million.
Acquisition-related costs consist primarily of transaction costs incurred to perform due diligence and to analyze, negotiate and consummate an acquisition, costs to perform post-closing activities to establish a tax-efficient organizational structure, and costs to transition the acquired company’s information technology and other operations and administrative functions from the former owner. We incurred $0.9 million in pre-tax acquisition-related costs in the first six months of 2013.
4. Financing receivables
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had financing receivables of $150.8 million and $124.5 million and related payables of $107.1 million and $130.1 million outstanding under our order-to-cash program and product financing arrangements, which were included in other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets.

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill through June 30, 2013:
Carrying amount of goodwill, December 31, 2012
Currency translation adjustments
Fair value adjustments (See Note 3)
Carrying amount of goodwill, June 30, 2013
Intangible assets at June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, were as follows:
At June 30, 2013
Gross intangible assets
Accumulated amortization
Net intangible assets, June 30, 2013
At December 31, 2012
Net intangible assets, December 31, 2012
Amortization expense for intangible assets was $1.0 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and $1.9 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Based on the current carrying value of intangible assets subject to amortization, estimated amortization expense is $1.4 million for the remainder of 2013, $4.4 million for 2014, $5.0 million for 2015, $5.1 million for 2016, $4.9 million for 2017 and $4.1 million for 2018.
6. Exit and Realignment Costs
We periodically incur exit and realignment and other charges associated with optimizing our operations, which includes the consolidation of distribution centers and closure of offsite warehouses. During the first six months of 2013, we recognized total charges of $1.3 million in the Domestic segment and $0.5 million in the International segment associated with these activities. These charges include $0.5 million in loss accruals for operating leases and the remainder was due to losses on property and equipment and other expenses. We expect additional exit and realignment charges of approximately $2.7 million over the remainder of 2013 for activities initiated in the Domestic segment through June 30, 2013.

The following table summarizes the activity related to exit and realignment cost accruals through June 30, 2013:
Accrued exit and realignment costs, December 31, 2012
Provision for exit and realignment activities
Cash payments, net of sublease income
Accrued exit and realignment costs, June 30, 2013
7. Retirement Plan
We have a noncontributory, unfunded retirement plan for certain officers and other key employees in the United States (Domestic Retirement Plan). In February 2012, our Board of Directors amended the Domestic Retirement Plan to freeze benefit levels and modify vesting provisions under the plan effective as of March 31, 2012.
The components of net periodic benefit cost, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, were as follows:
Service cost
Interest cost
Recognized net actuarial loss
Curtailment loss
Net periodic benefit cost
Certain of our foreign subsidiaries have defined benefit and health and welfare plans covering substantially all of their respective employees. Our expense for these plans totaled $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
8. Debt
We have $200 million of senior notes outstanding, which mature on April 15, 2016 and bear interest at 6.35% payable semi-annually (Senior Notes). We may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price of the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes or the present value of remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 0.25%. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the estimated fair value of the Senior Notes was $216.8 million and $219.5 million, and the related carrying amount was $204.9 million and $205.8 million. The estimated fair value interest rate used to compute the fair value of the Senior Notes at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was 3.180% and 3.194%.
We have a five-year $350 million Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of financial institutions (the Credit Agreement) expiring June 5, 2017. Under this credit facility, we have the ability to request two one-year extensions and to request an increase in aggregate commitments by up to $150 million. The interest rate on the credit facility, which is subject to adjustment quarterly, is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an adjustment based on the better of our debt ratings or leverage ratio (Credit Spread) as defined by the Credit Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of between 17.5 and 42.5 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The terms of the Credit Agreement limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios for leverage and interest coverage, including on a pro forma basis in the event of an acquisition. At June 30, 2013, we had no borrowings and letters of credit of approximately $5.0 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility, leaving $345.0 million available for borrowing. We also have a $1.4 million letter of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2013, which supports our facilities leased in Europe.
11
9. Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $17.9 million and $36.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $19.6 million and $38.7 million for the same periods in 2012. The effective tax rate was 38.3% and 39.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to 39.4% for the same periods in 2012. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2013 is primarily the result of benefits recognized upon the conclusion of examinations of our 2009 and 2010 federal income tax returns and certain state income tax returns. These benefits were partially offset by the impact of foreign taxes. As a result of the conclusion of the examinations, we reduced the liability for unrecognized tax benefits to $4.7 million at June 30, 2013, from $12.3 million at December 31, 2012. Included in the liability at June 30, 2013 were $3.3 million of tax positions for which ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 over the same period in 2012 was largely due to the impact of foreign taxes.
10. Net Income per Common Share
The following summarizes the calculation of net income per common share attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

11. Shareholders’ Equity
In February 2011, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50 million of our outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three-year period, expiring in February 2014. The program is intended to offset shares issued in conjunction with our stock incentive plans and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired approximately 257 thousand shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $8.3 million, or an average price per share of $32.22. As of June 30, 2013, we have approximately $10.6 million remaining under the repurchase program. We have elected to allocate any excess of share repurchase price over par value to retained earnings.

12. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
The following table shows the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), December 31, 2012
Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), December 31, 2011
We include amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income related to defined benefit pension plans as a component of net periodic pension cost recorded in selling, general & administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 we reclassified $0.2 million of prior service costs. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we reclassified $0.3 million and $0.2 million of actuarial net losses. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we reclassified $0.7 million and $0.5 million of actuarial net losses.
13. Commitments and Contingencies
We have contractual obligations that are required to be paid to customers in the event that certain contractual performance targets are not achieved as of specified dates, generally within 36 months from inception of the contract. These contingent obligations totaled $1.9 million as of June 30, 2013. If none of the performance targets are met as of the specified dates, and customers have met their contractual commitments, payments will be due as follows: Remainder of 2013 – $0.5 million; 2014 – $0.6 million; 2015 – $0.7 million; and 2016 – $0.1 million. None of these contingent obligations were accrued at June 30, 2013, as we do not consider any of them probable. We deferred the recognition of fees that are contingent upon the company’s future performance under the terms of these contracts. As of June 30, 2013, $1.2 million of deferred revenue related to outstanding contractual performance targets was included in other accrued liabilities.
14
During the second quarter of 2013, we reached a settlement in the administrative proceedings pending before the California Board of Equalization related to certain municipal sales tax incentives. Under the terms of the settlement, we expect to receive approximately $4.3 million for the period January 1, 2009 through June 30, 2013, of which $0.8 million was recognized prior to 2013. In subsequent quarters, the company will receive an ongoing tax incentive that will vary with eligible revenues generated by sales to California-based customers.
Prior to exiting the direct-to-consumer business in January 2009, we received reimbursements from Medicare, Medicaid, and private healthcare insurers for certain customer billings. We are subject to audits of these reimbursements for up to seven years from the date of the service.
In connection with the Movianto acquisition, we entered into transition services agreements with the former owner under which it provides certain information technology and support services. The contract terms range from six to 24 months and are cancellable without penalty with thirty days notice. Since the acquisition we have terminated certain of these agreements and the maximum aggregate fees payable in 2013 under these agreements is approximately $4.0 million.

16. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There has been no change in our significant accounting policies from those contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, except as discussed below.
We adopted an Accounting Standard Update (ASU) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) for clarifying disclosures of offsetting assets and liabilities. This clarifies the scope and treatment of derivatives that are offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangements. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
We adopted an ASU for reporting amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This update requires entities to disclose the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
We adopted an ASU for reporting cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of foreign subsidiaries, assets or investments. This update requires the release of related cumulative translation adjustment when the parent ceases to have a controlling financial interest. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

The following discussion and analysis describes results of operations and material changes in the financial condition of Owens & Minor, Inc. and its subsidiaries since December 31, 2012. Trends of a material nature are discussed to the extent known and considered relevant. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, related notes thereto, and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Second quarter and first six months of 2013 compared with 2012
Overview
Owens & Minor, Inc., along with its subsidiaries, (we, us, or our) is a leading national distributor of name-brand medical and surgical supplies and a healthcare logistics company. We report our business under two segments: Domestic and International. The Domestic segment includes all services in the United States relating to our role as a medical supply logistics company serving healthcare providers and manufacturers. The International segment provides third-party logistics for the pharmaceutical and medical device industries in the European market. Segment financial information is provided in Note 14 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report.
Financial highlights. The following table provides a reconciliation of reported operating earnings, net income and net income per diluted common share to non-GAAP measures used by management:
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
Operating earnings, as reported (GAAP)
Operating earnings, adjusted (non-GAAP) (Adjusted Operated Earnings)
Adjusted Operating Earnings as a percent of revenue (non-GAAP)
Net income, as reported (GAAP)
Acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges, net of tax
Net income, adjusted (non-GAAP) (Adjusted Net Income)
Net income per diluted common share, as reported (GAAP)
Acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges, per diluted common share
Net income per diluted common share, adjusted (non-GAAP) (Adjusted EPS)
Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) declined to $0.46 in the second quarter of 2013 compared with $0.48 in the second quarter of 2012 due to a decrease in Adjusted Operating Earnings (non-GAAP) of $3.1 million. Adjusted EPS (non-GAAP) declined to $0.90 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared with $0.94 in the same period of 2012 due to a decrease in Adjusted Operating Earnings (non-GAAP) of $5.1 million. Domestic segment operating earnings decreased $2.5 million to $51.2 million for the second quarter of 2013 and decreased $1.5 million to $104.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. International segment operating losses were $0.6 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
This management’s discussion and analysis contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In general, the measures exclude items and charges that (i) management does not believe reflect our core business and relate more to strategic, multi-year corporate activities; or (ii) relate to activities or actions that may have occurred over multiple or in prior periods without predictable trends. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate our performance, evaluate the balance sheet, engage in financial and operational planning and determine incentive compensation.
Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures to investors as supplemental metrics to assist readers in assessing the effects of items and events on our financial and operating results and in comparing our performance to that of our competitors. However, the non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by us should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements set forth above should be carefully evaluated.
24
Acquisition-related charges in the first six months of 2013 consist primarily of costs to transition Movianto’s information technology and other operations and administrative functions from the former owner. Exit and realignment charges are associated with optimizing our operations and include the consolidation of distribution centers and closure of offsite warehouses in the United States and Europe. Unless otherwise stated, our analysis hereinafter excludes acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges. More information about these charges is provided in Notes 3 and 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report.
Results of Operations
The following table presents highlights from our consolidated statements of income on a percentage of revenue basis:
Selling, general, and administrative expenses
Adjusted Operating Earnings (non-GAAP)
Net revenue. Net revenue was $2.27 billion and $4.54 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, representing an increase of 3.7% and 3.2% from $2.19 billion and $4.40 billion for the same periods in 2012. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, Domestic segment net revenue was $2.14 billion and $4.30 billion. International segment net revenue was $123.0 million and $244.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, of which approximately 50% was fee-for-service revenues. The increases in consolidated net revenue were primarily due to net revenues contributed by Movianto, which was acquired in the third quarter of 2012.
Declines in Domestic segment net revenues of $41.8 million in the second quarter and $104.9 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to the same periods of 2012, are primarily due to ongoing market trends, including lower rates of healthcare utilization and reduced government purchases, as well as our continued rationalization of smaller, less profitable healthcare provider customers and suppliers. Domestic segment revenue declined 1.9% quarter-over-quarter.
Gross margin. Gross margin dollars increased 29.3% to $273.4 million for the second quarter of 2013 from $211.4 million for the second quarter of 2012. Gross margin dollars increased 29.8% to $552.5 million for the first six months of 2013 from $425.8 million for the same period of 2012. Domestic segment gross margin as a percentage of segment net revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 versus 2012 benefitted from supplier price changes and our sourcing efforts, partially offsetting a decline in gross margin as a percentage of revenue from customers. We are expecting a portion of the benefit from supplier price changes to be offset in future quarters of 2013 as other contract terms are affected by the supplier price changes. International segment gross margin as a percentage of segment net revenue was approximately 50% for the second quarter and year-to-date period of 2013. We expect this metric to vary in future quarters based on seasonality and mix of buy-sell versus fee-for-service business.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. SG&A expenses include labor, warehousing, handling and delivery costs associated with our distribution and third-party logistics services, as well as labor costs for our supply-chain consulting services. The costs to convert new customers to our information systems are generally incurred prior to the recognition of revenues from the new customers.
SG&A expenses increased $62.3 million and $124.4 million to $212.5 million and $430.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $150.3 million and $305.9 million for the same periods in 2012, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Movianto in the third quarter of 2012. International segment SG&A expenses also include ongoing costs for information technology and other transition services. During the second quarter of 2013, we reached a settlement in the administrative proceedings pending before the California Board of Equalization related to certain municipal sales tax incentives. As a result, SG&A expenses were reduced by a net amount of $3.5 million. The majority of the benefit to SG&A expenses was offset by certain expenses, including greater healthcare costs, litigation expenses, adjustments to benefit accruals, and expenses associated with the transition to a new fleet contract. In subsequent quarters, the company will receive an ongoing tax incentive that will vary with eligible revenues generated by sales to California-based customers. More information about this incentive is provided in Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report.

Depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.8 million to $12.3 million for the second quarter of 2013 and increased $7.8 million to $24.9 million for the first six months of 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012, primarily related to warehouse equipment and information technology hardware and software acquired with Movianto. In addition, depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.9 million in the Domestic segment primarily due to software enhancements for operational efficiency improvements.
Other operating income, net. Net other operating income was $2.1 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2012, including finance charge income of $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Net other operating income includes $0.6 million of income associated with product financing arrangements with customers in Europe.
Net other operating income was $3.3 million for the first six months of 2013 compared to $2.9 million for the comparable period of 2012, including finance charge income of $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net of interest earned on cash balances, was $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2013, as compared with $3.5 million for the second quarter of 2012, and $6.4 million for the first six months of 2013 as compared with $6.9 million for the first six months of 2012. The following table presents the components of our effective interest rate and average total debt for the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Income taxes. The provision for income taxes, including income taxes on acquisition-related and exit and realignment charges, was $17.9 million and $36.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2013, compared to $19.6 million and $38.7 million for the comparable periods in 2012. The effective tax rate was 38.3% for the second quarter and 39.9% for the first six months of 2013, compared to 39.4% for the comparable periods of 2012. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2013 is primarily the result of benefits recognized upon the conclusion of examinations of our 2009 and 2010 federal income tax returns and certain state income tax returns. These benefits were partially offset by the impact of foreign taxes. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 over the same period in 2012 was largely due to the impact of foreign taxes.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial condition. Cash and cash equivalents increased to $207.8 million at June 30, 2013 from $97.9 million at December 31, 2012. Nearly all of our cash and cash equivalents are held in cash depository accounts with major banks in the United States and Europe or invested in high-quality, short-term liquid investments.
Accounts receivable, net of allowances, decreased $2.9 million, or 0.5%, to $550.6 million at June 30, 2013, from $553.5 million at December 31, 2012. Consolidated accounts receivable days outstanding (DSO) were 21.4 days and 21.2 days at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Domestic segment DSO was 19.3 days at June 30, 2013, and 19.1 days at December 31, 2012, based on three months’ sales, and has ranged from 19.1 to 19.7 days over the prior four quarters.
Merchandise inventories increased 4.0% to $794.0 million at June 30, 2013, from $763.8 million at December 31, 2012. Consolidated average inventory turnover was 10.4 for the second quarter of 2013. Domestic segment average inventory turnover was 10.3 in the second quarter of 2013, based on three months’ sales, and has ranged from 10.2 to 10.8 over the prior four quarters.
The International segment’s net working capital of approximately $53.3 million at June 30, 2013, excluding cash and cash equivalents, is comprised of accounts receivable of $78.7 million, financing receivables and other current assets of $163.8 million, inventories of $21.9 million, accounts payable of $73.6 million and financing payables and other current liabilities of approximately $137.5 million. See Note 4 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding financing receivables.

Liquidity and capital expenditures. The following table summarizes our consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:
Net cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities
Investing activities
Financing activities
Effect of exchange rate changes
Increase in cash and cash equivalents
Cash provided by operating activities was $179.2 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $142.8 million in the same period of 2012. The increase in cash from operating activities for the first six months of 2013 compared to same period in 2012 was primarily the result of an increase in accounts payable primarily due to an increase in inventories and timing of payments. Cash from operating activities in the first six months of 2012 was a result of operating earnings, a decrease in inventories and a decrease in DSO of 1.2 days (favorable impact on cash of approximately $29 million), partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable.
Capital expenditures were $31.0 million in the first six months of 2013, compared to $18.2 million in the same period of 2012. Capital expenditures in 2013 and 2012 primarily relate to our strategic and operational efficiency initiatives, particularly initiatives relating to information technology enhancements and optimizing our distribution network.
Cash used for financing activities in the first six months of 2013 was $39.1 million, compared to $35.7 million used in the first six months of 2012. During the first six months of 2013, we paid dividends of $30.4 million, repurchased common stock under a share repurchase program for $8.3 million of cash, and received proceeds of $4.2 million from the exercise of stock options. During the first six months of 2012, we paid dividends of $27.9 million, repurchased common stock under a share repurchase program for $7.5 million, paid financing costs of $1.3 million related to a new credit facility, and received proceeds of $3.8 million from the exercise of stock options.
Capital resources. Our sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents and a revolving credit facility. We have a five-year $350 million Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and a syndicate of financial institutions (the Credit Agreement). Under this credit facility, we have the ability to request two one-year extensions and to request an increase in aggregate commitments by up to $150 million. The interest rate on the new credit facility, which is subject to adjustment quarterly, is based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate, plus an adjustment based on the better of our debt ratings or leverage ratio (Credit Spread) as defined by the Credit Agreement. We are charged a commitment fee of between 17.5 and 42.5 basis points on the unused portion of the facility. The terms of the credit agreement limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur and require us to maintain ratios for leverage and interest coverage, including on a pro forma basis in the event of an acquisition. At June 30, 2013, we had no borrowings and letters of credit of approximately $5.0 million outstanding on the revolving credit facility, leaving $345.0 million available for borrowing. We also have a $1.4 million letter of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2013, which supports facilities leased in Europe.
We may utilize the revolving credit facility for long-term strategic growth, capital expenditures, working capital and general corporate purposes. If we were unable to access the revolving credit facility, it could impact our ability to fund these needs. During the first six months of 2013, we had no borrowings or repayments under the credit facilities. Based on our leverage ratio at June 30, 2013, the interest rate under the credit facility is LIBOR plus 1.375%. We have $200 million of senior notes outstanding, which mature in 2016 and bear interest at 6.35%, payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15. The revolving credit facility and senior notes contain cross-default provisions which could result in the acceleration of payments due in the event of default of either agreement. We believe we were in compliance with the debt covenants at June 30, 2013.
In the second quarter of 2013, we paid cash dividends on our outstanding common stock at the rate of $0.24 per share, which represents a 9% increase over the rate of $0.22 per share paid in the second quarter of 2012. We anticipate continuing to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future. However, the payment of future dividends remains within the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors.
In February 2011, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50 million of our outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three-year period, expiring in February 2014. During the second quarter of 2013, we repurchased approximately 183,400 shares for $6.0 million under this program. The remaining amount authorized for repurchases under this program is $10.6 million at June 30, 2013.
We earn a portion of our operating earnings in foreign jurisdictions outside the U.S., which we consider to be indefinitely reinvested. Accordingly, no U.S. federal and state income taxes and withholding taxes have been provided on these earnings. Our cash, cash-equivalents, short-term investments, and marketable securities held by our foreign subsidiaries totaled $35.0 million as of June 30, 2013. We do not intend, nor do we foresee a need, to repatriate these funds or other assets held outside the U.S. In the future,
27
should we require more capital to fund discretionary activities in the U.S. than is generated by our domestic operations and is available through our borrowings, we could elect to repatriate cash or other assets from foreign jurisdictions that have previously been considered to be indefinitely reinvested. Upon distribution of these assets, we could be subject to additional U.S. federal and state income taxes and withholding taxes payable to foreign jurisdictions, where applicable.
We believe available financing sources, including cash generated by operating activities and borrowings under the revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to fund our working capital needs, capital expenditures, long-term strategic growth, payments under long-term debt and lease arrangements, payments of quarterly cash dividends, share repurchases and other cash requirements. While we believe that we will have the ability to meet our financing needs in the foreseeable future, changes in economic conditions may impact (i) the ability of financial institutions to meet their contractual commitments to us, (ii) the ability of our customers and suppliers to meet their obligations to us and/or (iii) our cost of borrowing.

We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law.
We provide credit in the normal course of business to our customers and are exposed to losses resulting from nonpayment or delinquent payment by customers. We perform initial and ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain reserves for estimated credit losses. We measure our performance in collecting customer accounts receivable in terms of days sales outstanding (DSO). Accounts receivable at June 30, 2013, were approximately $550.6 million, and consolidated DSO at June 30, 2013, was 21.4 days, based on three months’ sales. A hypothetical increase (decrease) in DSO of one day would result in a decrease (increase) in our cash balances, an increase (decrease) in borrowings against our revolving credit facility, or a combination thereof, of approximately $25 million.
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates related to our revolving credit facility. We had no outstanding borrowings and approximately $5 million in letters of credit under the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2013. A hypothetical increase in interest rates of 100 basis points would result in a potential reduction in future pre-tax earnings of approximately $0.1 million per year for every $10 million of outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
Due to the nature and pricing of our Domestic segment distribution services, we are exposed to potential volatility in fuel prices. Our strategies for helping to mitigate our exposure to changing domestic fuel prices has included entering into leases for trucks with improved fuel efficiency and entering into fixed–price agreements for diesel fuel. We benchmark our domestic diesel fuel purchase prices against the U.S. Weekly Retail On-Highway Diesel Prices (benchmark) as quoted by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. The benchmark averaged $3.87 per gallon in the first six months of 2013, decreased 2% from $3.96 per gallon in the first six months of 2012. Based on our fuel consumption in the first six months of 2013, we estimate that every 10 cents per gallon increase in the benchmark would reduce our Domestic segment operating earnings by approximately $400,000 on an annualized basis. In January 2013, we entered into a fixed-price purchase agreement with one of our diesel fuel suppliers for approximately one-third of our anticipated Domestic segment fuel usage for 2013 at an equivalent benchmark price of $3.91 per gallon.
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to foreign currency translation and transaction risks. Our business transactions outside of the United States are primarily denominated in the Euro and British Pound. We may use foreign currency forwards, swaps and options, where possible, to manage our risk related to certain foreign currency fluctuations. However, we believe that our foreign currency transaction risks are low since our revenues and expenses are typically denominated in the same currency.
We carried out an evaluation, with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Certain legal proceedings pending against us are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. Through June 30, 2013, there have been no material developments in any legal proceedings reported in such Annual Report.
Certain risk factors that we believe could affect our business and prospects are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. Through June 30, 2013, there have been no material changes in the risk factors described in such Annual Report.
In February 2011, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $50 million of our outstanding common stock to be executed at the discretion of management over a three-year period, expiring in February 2014. The program is intended to offset shares issued in conjunction with our stock incentive plan and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. During the second quarter of 2013, we repurchased in open-market transactions and retired 183,368 shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $6.0 million, or an average price per share of $32.80. The following table summarizes share repurchase activity by month during the second quarter of 2013.
