company that started in a small Indiana town decades ago. Our values are the 
bedrock of our company. 

Even as we have expanded into a diverse global company, our relationships 
with our customers, our employees, our investors and our communities are based 
on the values we formed long ago – work hard, treat people like you want to be 
treated, be honest, give to those who need your help, and provide products and 
services that enhance people’s lives.

We may have changed, evolved, adapted and expanded, but we have remained true to our values. These same enduring 
values hold the promise to lead us into many more years of building success.

Safety, environmental protection, community service, high ethical behavior and trust 
are staples among Kimball company values. Our values-focused culture, ethics and integrity 
are recognized by employees and business partners alike. This year Kimball was named to the 
Forbes list of “America’s Most Trustworthy Companies”, based on assessments of financial 
transparency, conservative accounting practices, sound management and corporate governance.

TO Our SHArE OWNErS:

Change is inevitable. Strategies may change over time, to address 
market conditions, evolving customer needs, product innovations, 
or technological advances. Markets expand as others contract, 
offering new opportunities to those with the insights to see them. 
Your Company embraces change and successfully navigated 
through the challenges of a volatile business climate during fiscal 
year 2013 while remaining true to its enduring values. 

Net Income  
was up 

71% 

for fiscal 2013.

Open Orders for the  
Furniture segment at  
year end increased

 33%

6  Kimball 2013  www.kimball.com   

Consolidated financial results for fiscal year 2013 improved significantly compared to the prior year. Our improved operational performance, combined with careful management of working capital, produced strong cash flow from operations. Areas remain within your Company which have room for improvement. However, we are largely past the volatile economic downturn which we weathered over the last several years; our restructuring plans have drawn to a close and we are now much stronger and more focused than ever. Consolidated Net Sales for fiscal year 2013 were $1,203,134,000, a 5% increase compared to last fiscal year sales. The consolidated increase was a result of a 14% net sales increase in the Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) segment, which more than offset a 5% net sales decline in the Furniture segment. Despite lower fiscal year 2013 sales, the Furniture segment’s open orders at June 30, 2013 increased 33% compared to June 30, 2012, as open orders for both office furniture and hospitality furniture improved. Open orders in the EMS segment at the end of fiscal year 2013 were up 2% over 2012.Consolidated Net Income for fiscal year 2013 was $19.9 million, or $0.52 per Class B diluted share, compared to the prior year net income of $11.6 million, or $0.31 per Class B diluted share. Increased net income in the EMS segment related to sales growth and margin improvement was partially offset by a decline in net income in the Furniture segment on lower volumes. The 71% increase in consolidated net income confirmed that our strategies are working and our process discipline is paying rewards.Cash management continues to be a key priority. Cash and cash equivalents improved to $103.6 million as of the June 30 fiscal year end, compared to $75.2 million as of the prior year end. Your Company’s balance sheet remains strong, with minimal long-term debt. We have prudently controlled working capital levels during this period of growth which enables us to stay focused on long-term strategies, make wise capital investments, and continue our trend of dividend distributions.One of the top priorities for our EMS segment coming into fiscal year 2013 was growth and diversification of our customer base. The team’s intense focus throughout the year resulted in extraordinary execution around this strategy, as evidenced by a 14% sales increase compared to last year. The growth has come from both existing customers and new customers, and within all four of the vertical markets in which we compete. We are pleased with the accomplishments our EMS team achieved over the past year and look forward to continued success in fiscal year 2014.The Furniture segment experienced mixed results from the various markets in which it operates, ending fiscal year 2013 with a 5% decline in net sales and approximately break-even net income. In particular, sales to the federal government declined substantially compared to last year and the hospitality sector did not recover as rapidly as the industry forecasted. Net income was lower than the prior year due to the lower sales volumes, an unfavorable sales mix, higher incentive compensation, and prior year favorable impacts including LIFO inventory reserve adjustments and import duty refunds.Douglas A.

Projections by the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer Association (BIFMA) estimated an approximate 4% year-over-year increase in office furniture consumption for calendar year 2013, driven by stronger growth forecasted in the latter half of calendar year 2013.  Improved year-over-year growth of 8% is projected for calendar year 2014. Our Kimball Office and National brands are strengthening their positions as market leaders. The comparable indicator for the hospitality market, RevPAR, or Revenue Per Available Room, is projected to increase 6% for calendar year 2013 and is forecast to increase another 6% to 8% for calendar year 2014. As the effects of the recession begin to recede in the hospitality market, our Kimball Hospitality brand will take advantage of the opportunities for refurbishment projects and new hotel construction.We remain committed to the strategies we have set and confident in the markets that we have chosen to pursue. We take great pride in the global team of employees who embrace and strengthen the Kimball values that form the solid bedrock of your Company’s success. We will continue to evolve, expand and endure.We are particularly proud to announce that your Company was honored to be named to the Forbes 2013 list of “America’s 100 Most Trustworthy Companies”, a nod to our record of financial transparency, conservative accounting practices, sound management, and corporate governance. We would be remiss not to mention the passing of our friend and colleague, Harry “Hank” Bowman, who served as a member of the Board of Directors for the past thirteen years. His leadership and guidance have been invaluable throughout the time of his service, and his wit, humor and common sense will be sorely missed. We are grateful for his time and service, and extend our deepest condolences to his family.To appreciate how Kimball International is remaining true to our values as we pursue expanding markets and grow  our business, we invite you to spend time visiting our website at www.kimball.com.For more detailed insights into the past year, we encourage you to read the following Form 10-K.James C.

Segments

 Electronic Manufacturing Services

 Overview

Kimball began producing electronic assemblies, circuit boards, and wiring harnesses for electronic organs and keyboards in 
1961 and has since grown and evolved with the EMS industry.  Our current focus is on electronic assemblies that have high 
durability, quality, reliability, and regulatory compliance requirements primarily in automotive, medical, industrial, and public 
safety applications.  Our business development managers work to build long-term relationships that create value for customers, 
suppliers, employees and Share Owners, and this quest is supported globally from locations in five countries through prototype, 
new product development and introduction, supply chain management, test development, complete system assembly, and repair 
services. 

Electronics and electro-mechanical products (electronic assemblies) are sold globally on a contract basis and produced to 
customers' specifications.  Kimball's engineering and manufacturing services primarily entail:

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

design support;
new product launch;
production and testing of printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs);
industrialization and automation of the manufacturing processes;
product and process validation and qualification;
testing of products under a series of extreme environmental conditions;
assembly and packaging of electronic and other related products; and
complete product life cycle management.

3

Integrated throughout this segment is customer program management through the life cycle of the products along with supply 
chain management, which affords customers the opportunity to focus their attention and resources on sales, marketing, and 
product development as they sell their unique branded end products into various markets and industries.

Sales revenue of our EMS segment is generally not affected by seasonality.   

 Recent Business Changes

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company approved a plan to exit a 35,000 square foot leased assembly 
operation located in Fremont, California.  Operations at this facility ceased during fiscal year 2012, and a majority of the 
business was transferred to our existing Jasper, Indiana EMS facility.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company acquired privately-held Genesis Electronics Manufacturing of Tampa, 
Florida.  The acquisition supported our growth and diversification strategy, bringing new customers in our key medical and 
industrial markets.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company approved a plan to expand our European automotive electronics 
capabilities and to establish a European Medical Center of Expertise near Poznan, Poland.  As part of the plan, we consolidated 
our EMS facilities located in Wales, United Kingdom, and Poznan, Poland, into a new larger facility near Poznan.  The plan 
was executed in stages and was completed during fiscal year 2012.  

Additional information regarding our restructuring activities is located in Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

 Locations

As of June 30, 2013, our EMS segment consisted of six manufacturing facilities with one located in each of Indiana, Florida, 
Poland, China, Mexico, and Thailand.  We continually assess our capacity needs and evaluate our operations to optimize our 
service levels by geographic region.  Operations located outside of the United States continue to be an integral part of our EMS 
segment.  See Item 1A - Risk Factors for information regarding financial and operational risks related to our international 
operations.

 Marketing Channels

Manufacturing and engineering services are marketed by the Company's business development team.  Contract electronic 
assemblies are manufactured based on specific orders, generally resulting in a small amount of finished goods consisting 
primarily of goods awaiting shipment to specific customers.

 Major Competitive Factors

Key competitive factors in the EMS market include competitive pricing, quality and reliability, engineering design services, 
production flexibility, on-time delivery, customer lead time, test capability, and global presence.  Growth in the EMS industry is 
created through the proliferation of electronic components in today's advanced products and the continuing trend of original 
equipment manufacturers in the electronics industry subcontracting the assembly process to companies with a core competence 
in this area.  The nature of the EMS industry is such that the start-up of new customers and new programs to replace expiring 
programs occurs frequently.  New customer and program start-ups generally cause losses early in the life of a program, which 
are generally recovered as the program becomes established and matures.  The segment continues to experience margin 
pressures related to an overall excess capacity position in the electronics subcontracting services market.  The continuing 
success of this segment is dependent upon its ability to replace expiring customers/programs with new customers/programs.

The Company does not believe that it or the industry in general, has any special practices or special conditions affecting 
working capital items that are significant for understanding our EMS segment other than fluctuating inventory levels which 
may increase in conjunction with transfers of production among facilities and start-up of new programs.  

 Competitors

The EMS industry is very competitive as numerous manufacturers compete for business from existing and potential customers.  
Our competition includes EMS companies such as Benchmark Electronics, Inc., Jabil Circuit, Inc., and Plexus Corp.  The 
Company does not have a significant share of the EMS market and was ranked the 18th largest global EMS provider for 
calendar year 2012 by Manufacturing Market Insider in the March 2013 edition.

 Raw Material Availability

Raw materials utilized in the manufacture of contract electronic products are generally readily available from both domestic 
and foreign sources, although from time to time the industry experiences shortages of certain components due to supply and 
demand forces, combined with rapid product life cycles of certain components.  In addition, unforeseen events such as natural 
disasters can and have disrupted portions of the supply chain.  The Company has minimized disruption in the supply chain by 
maintaining close communication with suppliers. 

Raw materials are normally acquired for specific customer orders and may or may not be interchangeable among products.  
Inherent risks associated with rapid technological changes within this contract industry are mitigated by procuring raw 
materials, for the most part, based on firm orders.  The Company may also purchase additional inventory to support new 
product introductions and transfers of production between manufacturing facilities.

 Customer Concentration

While the total electronic assemblies market has broad applications, the Company's customers are concentrated in the 
automotive, medical, industrial, and public safety industries.  Included in this segment were a significant amount of sales to 
Johnson Controls, Inc. and, prior to fiscal year 2012, Bayer AG affiliates which accounted for the following portions of 
consolidated net sales and EMS segment net sales:

As shown in the table above, the Company's sales to Bayer AG declined due to the expiration of our primary manufacturing 
contract with this customer in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011.  This contract accounted for a majority of the sales to 
Bayer AG during fiscal year 2011.  Margins on the Bayer AG product were generally lower than our other EMS products.  The 
nature of the contract business is such that start-up of new customers to replace expiring customers occurs frequently.  We 
continue to focus on diversification of the EMS segment customer base.

 Furniture

 Overview

Kimball has been in the furniture business since 1950.  This segment's core markets include furniture sold under the Kimball 
Office, National, and Kimball Hospitality brand names.  Throughout all of the brands, the Company offers unlimited 
possibilities for creating functional environments that convey just the right image for each unique setting.  Kimball Office and 
National provide furniture solutions for private offices, open floor plan areas, conference rooms, training rooms, lobby/
reception areas, and dining/lounge areas with a vast mix of wood, metal, laminate, paint, and fabric options.  Products include 
desks, credenzas, seating, tables, collaborative workstations, contemporary cubicle systems, filing and storage units, and 
accessories such as audio visual boards and task lighting.  Kimball Office products tend to focus on the more complex customer 
solutions, and National products are geared more to the mid-market/less complex/lower cost aspect of the office furniture 
market.  Kimball Hospitality provides in room and public space furniture solutions for hotel properties, condominiums, and 
mixed use developments.  Products include headboards, desks, tables, dressers, entertainment centers, chests, wall panels, 
upholstered seating, task seating, cabinets, and vanities with a broad mix of wood, metal, stone, laminate, finish, and fabric 
options.  Also included in this segment are the Company's trucking fleet and customer fulfillment centers, which handle 
primarily product of this segment; but certain logistics services, such as backhauls, are sold on a contract basis.  

Sales revenue of our Furniture segment is generally not affected by seasonality with the exception of certain product lines 
which are impacted by the buying patterns of customers such as the U.S. federal government whose purchases of our product 
are generally higher in the first half of the Company's fiscal year.

 Recent Business Changes

Production within one of our Indiana facilities was expanded during fiscal year 2013 to manufacture select hospitality furniture 
products domestically which improves our flexibility in instances such as customer requests for shorter lead times. 

5

 
 
A production facility in Virginia was opened during fiscal year 2011 to manufacture upholstered seating, headboards, and other 
products for the Company's custom, program, and catalog offerings for hospitality guest rooms and public spaces.

 Locations

The Company's furniture products as of June 30, 2013 were primarily produced at eleven plants: seven located in Indiana, two 
in Kentucky, and one each in Idaho and Virginia.  In addition, select finished goods are purchased from external sources.  The 
Company continually assesses manufacturing capacity and adjusts such capacity as necessary.

In addition, a facility in Indiana houses an education center for dealer and employee training, a research and development 
center, and a product showroom.  Furniture showrooms are maintained in nine additional cities in the United States.  Office 
space is leased in Dongguan, Guangdong, China, to facilitate sourcing of select finished goods and components from the Asia 
Pacific Region.  

 Marketing Channels

Our furniture is marketed by sales representatives to end users, office furniture dealers, wholesalers, rental companies, and 
catalog houses throughout North America and on an international basis. 

 Major Competitive Factors

Our furniture is sold in the office furniture and hospitality furniture industries.  These industries have similar major competitive 
factors which include price in relation to quality and appearance, the utility of the product, supplier lead time, reliability of on-
time delivery, sustainability, and the ability to respond to requests for special and non-standard products.  We offer payment 
terms similar to industry standards and in unique circumstances may grant alternate payment terms.  

Certain industries are more price sensitive than others, but all expect on-time, damage-free delivery.  The Company maintains 
sufficient finished goods inventories to be able to offer prompt shipment of certain lines of office furniture as well as most of 
our own lines of hospitality furniture.  In addition to the many options available on our standard furniture products, custom 
furniture is produced to customer specifications and shipping timelines on a project basis.  Many of our office furniture 
products are shipped through our delivery system, which we believe offers the ability to reduce damage to product, enhance 
scheduling flexibility, and improve the capability for on-time deliveries.  

The Company does not believe that it or the industry in general, has any special practices or special conditions affecting 
working capital items that are significant for understanding our furniture business.  The Company does receive advance 
payments from customers on select furniture projects primarily in the hospitality industry.  

 Competitors

There are numerous furniture manufacturers competing within the marketplace, with a significant number of competitors 
offering similar products.  The Company believes, however, that there are a limited number of relatively large manufacturers of 
wood office and hospitality furniture. 

Our competition includes furniture manufacturers such as Steelcase Inc., Herman Miller, Inc., Knoll, Inc., Haworth, Inc., HNI 
Corporation, and several other privately-owned furniture manufacturers.  

 Raw Material Availability

Certain components used in the production of furniture are manufactured internally within the segment and are generally 
readily available, as are other raw materials used in the production of wood and nonwood furniture.  Certain fabricated seating 
components and wood frame assemblies as well as finished furniture products, which are generally readily available, are 
sourced on a global scale in an effort to provide quality products at the lowest total cost.

The Company also owns other patents and trademarks and has certain other trademark and patent applications pending, which 
in the Company's opinion are not significant to its business.  Patents owned by the Company expire at various times depending 
on the patent's date of issuance.  

 Environment and Energy Matters

The Company's operations are subject to various foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations with respect to 
environmental matters.  The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with present laws and regulations and that 
there are no material liabilities related to such items.

The Company is dedicated to excellence, leadership, and stewardship in matters of protecting the environment and 
communities in which the Company has operations.  Reinforcing the Company's commitment to the environment, six of the 
Company's showrooms and two non-manufacturing locations have been designed under the guidelines of the U.S. Green 
Building Council's LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) for Commercial Interiors program.  The Company 
believes that continued compliance with foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations which have been enacted relating 
to the protection of the environment will not have a material effect on its capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive 
position.  Management believes capital expenditures for environmental control equipment during the two fiscal years ending 
June 30, 2015, will not represent a material portion of total capital expenditures during those years.  

The Company's manufacturing operations require significant amounts of energy, including natural gas and oil.  Federal and 
state statutes and regulations control the allocation of fuels available to the Company, but to date the Company has experienced 
no interruption of production due to such regulations.  In its wood processing plants, a portion of energy requirements are 
satisfied internally by the use of the Company's own wood waste products.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document may contain certain forward-looking statements.  These are statements made by management, using their best 
business judgment based upon facts known at the time of the statements or reasonable estimates, about future results, plans, or 
future performance and business of the Company.  Such statements involve risk and uncertainty, and their ultimate validity is 
affected by a number of factors, both specific and general.  They should not be construed as a guarantee that such results or 
events will, in fact, occur or be realized.  The statements may be identified by the use of words such as "believes," 
"anticipates," "expects," "intends," "projects," "estimates," "forecasts," and similar expressions.  It is not possible to foresee or 
identify all factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected or historical results.  Additional information regarding 
risk factors is available in Item 1A - Risk Factors of this report.  The Company makes no commitment to update these factors or 
to revise any forward-looking statements for events or circumstances occurring after the statement is issued, except as required 
in current and quarterly periodic reports filed with the SEC or otherwise by law.  

At any time when the Company makes forward-looking statements, it desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" which is 
afforded such statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 where factors could cause actual results to 
differ materially from forward-looking statements.  

Item 1A - Risk Factors

The following important risk factors, among others, could affect future results and events, causing results and events to differ 
materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements made in this report and presented elsewhere by 
management from time to time.  Such factors, among others, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, 
financial condition, and results of operations and should be carefully considered.  Additional risks and uncertainties that we do 
not currently know about, we currently believe are immaterial or we have not predicted may also affect our actual results.  
Because of these and other factors, past performance should not be considered an indication of future performance.

Uncertain macroeconomic and industry conditions could adversely impact demand for the Company's products and 
adversely affect operating results.  Market demand for our products, which impacts revenues and gross profit, is influenced 
by a variety of economic and industry factors such as:

general corporate profitability of the Company's end markets;
credit availability to the Company's end markets;

• 
• 
•  white-collar unemployment rates;
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

commercial property vacancy rates;
new office construction and refurbishment rates;
deficit status of many governmental entities which may result in declining purchases of office furniture;
new hotel and casino construction and refurbishment rates;
automotive industry fluctuations;

8

 
• 
• 
• 
• 

changes in the medical device industry;
demand for end-user products which include electronic assembly components produced by the Company;
excess capacity in the industries in which the Company competes; and
changes in customer order patterns, including changes in product quantities, delays in orders, or cancellation of orders.

We must make decisions based on order volumes in order to achieve efficiency in manufacturing capacities.  These decisions 
include determining what level of additional business to accept, production schedules, component procurement commitments, 
and personnel requirements, among various other considerations.  We must constantly monitor the changing economic 
landscape and may modify our strategic direction based upon the changing business environment.  If we do not react quickly 
enough to the changes in market or economic conditions, it could result in lost customers, decreased market share, and 
increased operating costs.

The Company is exposed to the credit risk of its customers.  The instability of market conditions drives an elevated risk of 
potential bankruptcy of customers resulting in a greater risk of uncollectible outstanding accounts receivable.  Accordingly, we 
intensely monitor our receivables and related credit risks.  The realization of these risks could have a negative impact on our 
profitability.

Reduction of purchases by or the loss of one or more key customers could reduce revenues and profitability.  Losses of 
key contract customers within specific industries or significant volume reductions from key contract customers are both risks.  
If a current customer of the Company merges with or is acquired by a party that currently is aligned with a competitor, we 
could lose future revenues.  Our continuing success is dependent upon replacing expiring contract customers/programs with 
new customers/programs.  In particular, sales to Johnson Controls, Inc. accounted for 10%, 9%, and 7% of consolidated net 
sales in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.  Significant declines in the level of purchases by this customer or other 
key customers in either of the Company's segments, or the loss of a significant number of customers, could have a material 
adverse effect on business.  In addition, the nature of the contract electronics manufacturing industry is such that the start-up of 
new customers and new programs to replace expiring programs occurs frequently, and new customer and program start-ups 
generally cause losses early in the life of a program.  In our Furniture segment, a reduction of government spending could also 
have an adverse impact on our sales levels.  We can provide no assurance that we will be able to fully replace any lost sales, 
which could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. 

The Company operates in a highly competitive environment and may not be able to compete successfully.  Numerous 
manufacturers within the EMS industry compete globally for business from existing and potential customers.  The office and 
hospitality furniture industries are also competitive due to numerous global manufacturers competing in the marketplace.  In 
times of reduced demand for office furniture, large competitors may apply more pressure to their aligned distribution to sell 
their products exclusively which could lead to reduced opportunities for our products.  While the Company works toward 
reducing costs to respond to pricing pressures, if we cannot achieve the proportionate reductions in costs, profit margins may 
suffer.  The high level of competition in these industries impacts our ability to implement price increases or, in some cases, 
even maintain prices, which also could lower profit margins.  In addition, as end markets dictate, we are continually assessing 
excess capacity and developing plans to better utilize manufacturing operations, including consolidating and shifting 
manufacturing capacity to lower cost venues as necessary.

The Company's future operating results depend on the ability to purchase a sufficient amount of materials, parts, and 
components at competitive prices.  The Company depends on suppliers globally to provide timely delivery of materials, parts, 
and components for use in our products.  The financial stability of suppliers is monitored by the Company when feasible as the 
loss of a significant supplier could have an adverse impact on the Company's operations.  Suppliers adjust their capacity as 
demand fluctuates, and component shortages and/or component allocations could occur.  Certain finished products and 
components purchased by the Company are primarily manufactured in select regions of the world and issues in those regions 
could cause manufacturing delays.  Maintaining strong relationships with key suppliers of components critical to the 
manufacturing process is essential.  Price increases of commodity components could have an adverse impact on our 
profitability if we cannot offset such increases with other cost reductions or by price increases to customers.  Materials utilized 
by the Company are generally available, but future availability is unknown and could impact our ability to meet customer order 
requirements.  If suppliers fail to meet commitments to the Company in terms of price, delivery, or quality, it could interrupt 
our operations and negatively impact our ability to meet commitments to customers.

The Company's operating results are impacted by the cost of fuel and other energy sources.  The cost of energy is a 
critical component of freight expense and the cost of operating manufacturing facilities.  Increases in the cost of energy could 
reduce our profitability.

The Company could be impacted by manufacturing inefficiencies at certain locations.  At times we may experience labor 
or other manufacturing inefficiencies due to factors such as new product introductions, transfers of production among our 

9

manufacturing facilities, a sudden decline in sales, a new operating system, or turnover in personnel.  Manufacturing 
inefficiencies could have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

A change in the Company's sales mix among various products could have a negative impact on the gross profit margin.  
Changes in product sales mix could negatively impact our gross margin as margins of different products vary.  We strive to 
improve the margins of all products, but certain products have lower margins in order to price the product competitively or in 
connection with the start-up of a new program.  In addition, our EMS segment has historically operated at a lower gross profit 
percentage than our Furniture segment, and if the sales mix continues to trend toward the EMS segment, our consolidated gross 
profit margin will be negatively impacted.  An increase in the proportion of sales of products with lower margins could have an 
adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Future restructuring efforts by the Company may not be successful.  We continually evaluate our manufacturing 
capabilities and capacities in relation to current and anticipated market conditions.  If we implement further restructuring plans 
in the future, the successful execution of those restructuring initiatives will be dependent on various factors and may not be 
accomplished as quickly or effectively as anticipated.

Acquisitions by their nature may present risks to the Company.  The Company's sales growth plans may occur through 
both organic growth and acquisitions.  Acquisitions involve many risks, including:

• 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

• 
• 
• 
• 

difficulties in identifying suitable acquisition candidates and in negotiating and consummating acquisitions on terms 
attractive to us;
difficulties in the assimilation of the operations of the acquired company;
the diversion of resources, including diverting management's attention from our current operations;
risks of entering new geographic or product markets in which we have limited or no direct prior experience;
the potential loss of key customers of the acquired company;
the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;
the potential incurrence of indebtedness to fund the acquisition;
the potential issuance of common stock for some or all of the purchase price, which could dilute ownership interests of 
our current shareholders;
the acquired business not achieving anticipated revenues, earnings, cash flow, or market share;
excess capacity;
the assumption of undisclosed liabilities; and
dilution of earnings.

Start-up operations could present risks to the Company's current operations.  We are committed to growing our business, 
and therefore from time to time, we may determine that it would be in our best interests to start up a new operation.  Start-up 
operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties, such as funding the capital expenditures related to the start-up 
operation, developing a management team for the new operation, diversion of management focus away from current operations, 
and creation of excess capacity.  Any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of 
operations, or cash flows. 

The Company's international operations involve financial and operational risks.  We have operations outside the United 
States, primarily in China, Thailand, Poland, and Mexico.  Our international operations are subject to a number of risks, which 
may include the following:

• 
• 

• 
• 
• 

• 

economic and political instability;
compliance with laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, applicable to U.S. companies doing business outside 
the United States;
changes in foreign regulatory requirements and laws;
tariffs and other trade barriers;
potentially adverse tax consequences including the manner in which multinational companies are taxed in the U.S.; 
and
foreign labor practices.

These risks could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.  In addition, fluctuations 
in exchange rates could impact our operating results.  The Company's risk management strategy includes the use of derivative 
financial instruments to hedge certain foreign currency exposures.  Any hedging techniques we implement contain risks and 
may not be entirely effective.  Exchange rate fluctuations could also make our products more expensive than competitor's 
products not subject to these fluctuations, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability in international markets.

If the Company's efforts to introduce new products are not successful, this could limit sales growth or cause sales to 
decline.  The Furniture segment regularly introduces new products to keep pace with workplace trends and evolving regulatory 
and industry requirements, including environmental, health, and safety standards such as sustainability and ergonomic 
considerations, and similar standards for the workplace and for product performance.  Shifts in workforce demographics, 
working styles, and technology may impact the types of office furniture products purchased by our customers as smaller and 
more collaborative workstations gain popularity.  The introduction of new products requires the coordination of the design, 
manufacturing, and marketing of such products.  The design and engineering of certain new products can take nine to eighteen 
months or more, and further time may be required to achieve customer acceptance.  Accordingly, the launch of any particular 
product may be delayed or may be less successful than we originally anticipated.  Difficulties or delays in introducing new 
products or lack of customer acceptance of new products could limit sales growth or cause sales to decline.  The EMS segment 
depends on industries that utilize technologically advanced electronic components which often have short life cycles.  We must 
continue to invest in advanced equipment and product development to remain competitive in this area.

If customers do not perceive the Company's products to be innovative and of high quality, the Company's brand and 
name recognition could suffer.  We believe that establishing and maintaining brand and name recognition is critical to our 
business.  Promotion and enhancement of our brands will depend on the effectiveness of marketing and advertising efforts and 
on successfully providing innovative and high quality products and superior services.  If customers do not perceive our 
products and services to be innovative and of high quality, the Company's brand and name recognition could suffer, which 
could have a material adverse effect on our business.

A loss of independent manufacturing representatives, dealers, or other sales channels could lead to a decline in sales of 
the Company's Furniture segment products.  Our office furniture is marketed primarily through Company salespersons to 
end users, office furniture dealers, wholesalers, rental companies, and catalog houses.  Our hospitality furniture is marketed to 
end users using independent manufacturing representatives.  A significant loss within any of these sales channels could result in 
a sales decline and thus have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company must effectively manage working capital.  We closely monitor inventory and receivable efficiencies and 
continuously strive to improve these measures of working capital, but customer financial difficulties, cancellation or delay of 
customer orders, shifts in customer payment practices, transfers of production among our manufacturing facilities, or 
manufacturing delays could cause deteriorating working capital trends.

The Company's assets could become impaired.  As business conditions change, we must continually evaluate and work 
toward the optimum asset base.  It is possible that certain assets such as, but not limited to, facilities, equipment, intangible 
assets, or goodwill could be impaired at some point in the future depending on changing business conditions.  If assets of the 
Company become impaired, the result could be an adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations.

There are inherent uncertainties involved in estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in the preparation of financial 
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP).  Any changes 
in estimates, judgments, and assumptions could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, 
results of operations, or cash flows.  Our financial statements filed with the SEC are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, 
and the preparation of such financial statements includes making estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect reported 
amounts of assets, liabilities, and related reserves, revenues, expenses, and income.  Estimates are inherently subject to change 
in the future, and such changes could result in corresponding changes to the amounts of assets, liabilities, income, or expenses 
and likewise could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Changes in financial accounting standards may affect the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash 
flows.  The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is considering various proposed rule changes.  The SEC is 
considering options for incorporating International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) into the U.S. financial reporting 
system.  The implementation of new accounting standards or changes to U.S. GAAP could adversely impact our financial 
position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Fluctuations in the Company's effective tax rate could have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, 
results of operations, or cash flows.  The mix of pre-tax income or loss among the tax jurisdictions in which we operate that 
have varying tax rates could impact our effective tax rate.  The Company is subject to income taxes as well as non-income 
based taxes, in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions.  Judgment is required in determining the worldwide 
provision for income taxes, other tax liabilities, interest, and penalties.  Future events could change management's assessment.  
The Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions.  These audits can 
involve complex issues, which may require an extended period of time to resolve.  We have also made assumptions about the 
realization of deferred tax assets.  Changes in these assumptions could result in a valuation allowance for these assets.  Final 
determination of tax audits or tax disputes may be different from what is currently reflected by our income tax provisions and 
accruals.  

11

A failure to comply with the financial covenants under the Company's $75 million credit facility could adversely impact 
the Company.  Our credit facility requires the Company to comply with certain financial covenants.  We believe the most 
significant covenants under this credit facility are the ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (debt to 
EBITDA) and minimum net worth (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income).  More detail on these financial 
covenants is discussed in Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.  
As of June 30, 2013, we had no short-term borrowings under this credit facility and had total cash and cash equivalents of 
$103.6 million.  In the future, a default on the financial covenants under our credit facility could cause an increase in the 
borrowing rates or could make it more difficult for us to secure future financing which could adversely affect the financial 
condition of the Company.     

A failure to successfully implement information technology solutions or a lack of reasonable safeguards to maintain data 
security could adversely affect the Company.  Our business depends on effective information technology systems which also 
are intended to minimize the risk of a security breach.  Information systems require an ongoing commitment of significant 
resources to maintain and enhance existing systems and develop new systems in order to keep pace with changes in information 
processing technology and evolving industry standards.  Implementation delays, poor execution, or a breach of information 
technology systems could disrupt our operations, damage our reputation, or increase costs related to the mitigation of, response 
to, or litigation arising from any such issue.  

An inability to protect the Company's intellectual property could have a significant impact on business.  We attempt to 
protect our intellectual property rights, both in the United States and in foreign countries, through a combination of patent, 
trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws, as well as licensing agreements and third-party non-disclosure and assignment 
agreements.  Because of the differences in foreign laws concerning proprietary rights, our intellectual property rights do not 
generally receive the same degree of protection in foreign countries as they do in the United States, and therefore in some parts 
of the world, we have limited protections, if any, for our intellectual property.  Competing effectively depends, to a significant 
extent, on maintaining the proprietary nature of our intellectual property.  The degree of protection offered by the claims of the 
various patents and trademarks may not be broad enough to provide significant proprietary protection or competitive 
advantages to the Company, and patents or trademarks may not be issued on pending or contemplated applications.  In addition, 
not all of our products are covered by patents.  It is also possible that our patents and trademarks may be challenged, 
invalidated, canceled, narrowed, or circumvented.

A third party could claim that the Company has infringed on their intellectual property rights.  We could be notified of a 
claim regarding intellectual property rights which could lead to the Company spending time and money to defend or address 
the claim.  Even if the claim is without merit, it could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.

The Company's insurance may not adequately protect the Company from liabilities related to product defects.  We 
maintain product liability and other insurance coverage that we believe to be generally in accordance with industry practices.  
However, our insurance coverage may not be adequate to protect us fully against substantial claims and costs that may arise 
from liabilities related to product defects, particularly if we have a large number of defective products or if the root cause is 
disputed.

The Company's failure to maintain Food and Drug Administration (FDA) registration of one or more of its registered 
manufacturing facilities could negatively impact the Company's ability to produce products for its customers in the 
medical industry.  To maintain FDA registration, the Company is subject to FDA audits of the manufacturing process.  FDA 
audit failure could result in a partial or total suspension of production, fines, or criminal prosecution.  Failure or noncompliance 
could have an adverse effect on our reputation in addition to an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, 
or cash flows.

The Company is subject to extensive environmental regulation and significant potential environmental liabilities.  The 
past and present operation and ownership by the Company of manufacturing plants and real property are subject to extensive 
and changing federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to discharges in air, 
water, and land, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, the use of certain hazardous materials in the 
production of select EMS products, and the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances.  In 
addition, the increased prevalence of global climate issues may result in new regulations that may negatively impact us.  We 
cannot predict what environmental legislation or regulations will be enacted in the future, how existing or future laws or 
regulations will be administered or interpreted or what environmental conditions may be found to exist.  Compliance with more 
stringent laws or regulations, or stricter interpretation of existing laws, may require additional expenditures by the Company, 
some of which could be material.  In addition, any investigations or remedial efforts relating to environmental matters could 
involve material costs or otherwise result in material liabilities.

The Company's failure to retain the existing management team; maintain its engineering, technical, and manufacturing 
process expertise; and continue to attract qualified personnel could adversely affect the Company's business.  Our 

12

success is dependent on keeping pace with technological advancements and adapting services to provide manufacturing 
capabilities which meet customers' changing needs.  In addition, we must retain our qualified engineering and technical 
personnel and successfully anticipate and respond to technological changes in a cost effective and timely manner.  Our culture 
and guiding principles focus on continuous training, motivating, and development of employees, and we strive to attract, 
motivate, and retain qualified personnel.  Failure to retain and attract qualified personnel could adversely affect our business.

Turnover in personnel could cause manufacturing inefficiencies.  The demand for manufacturing labor in certain 
geographic areas makes retaining experienced production employees difficult.  Turnover could result in additional training and 
inefficiencies that could impact our operating results.

Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may impact the Company's production schedules and, in turn, negatively 
impact profitability.  Natural disasters or other catastrophic events, including severe weather, terrorist attacks, power 
interruptions, and fires, could disrupt operations and likewise the ability to produce or deliver the Company's products.  Our 
manufacturing operations require significant amounts of energy, including natural gas and oil, and governmental regulations 
may control the allocation of such fuels to the Company.  Employees are an integral part of our business and events such as a 
pandemic could reduce the availability of employees reporting for work.  In the event we experience a temporary or permanent 
interruption in our ability to produce or deliver product, revenues could be reduced, and business could be materially adversely 
affected.  In addition, catastrophic events, or the threat thereof, can adversely affect U.S. and world economies, and could result 
in delayed or lost sales of the Company's products.  In addition, any continuing disruption in our computer system could 
adversely affect the ability to receive and process customer orders, manufacture products, and ship products on a timely basis, 
and could adversely affect relations with customers, potentially resulting in reduction in orders from customers or loss of 
customers.  We maintain insurance to help protect us from costs relating to some of these matters, but such may not be 
sufficient or paid in a timely manner to us in the event of such an interruption.  

The requirements of being a public company may strain the Company's resources and distract management.  The 
Company is subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  Among 
other requirements, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal 
control over financial reporting.  The Company has expended and expects to continue to expend management time and 
resources maintaining documentation and testing internal control over financial reporting.  While management's evaluation as 
of June 30, 2013 resulted in the conclusion that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of that 
date, we cannot predict the outcome of testing in future periods.  If we conclude in future periods that our internal control over 
financial reporting is not effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is not able to render the required 
attestations, it could result in lost investor confidence in the accuracy, reliability, and completeness of the Company's financial 
reports.

Imposition of government regulations may significantly increase the Company's operating costs in the United States.  
Legislative and regulatory reforms by the U.S. federal government could significantly impact the profitability of the Company 
by burdening us with forced cost choices that cannot be recovered by increased pricing. 

•  The United States healthcare reform legislation passed in 2010 and upheld by the Supreme Court in 2012 is likely to 
increase our total healthcare and related administrative expenses as the provisions of the law become effective.  
Governmental changes or delays to the provisions may likewise drive changes in our implementation plan causing 
inefficiencies and increasing our implementation costs even further.  The changes resulting from this healthcare reform 
legislation could have a significant impact on our employment practices in the U.S., our financial position, results of 
operations, or cash flows. 

• 

International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) must be followed when producing defense related products for the 
U.S. government.  A breach of these regulations could have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of 
operations, or cash flows.

•  The Company imports a portion of its wood furniture products and is thus subject to an antidumping tariff on wooden 

bedroom furniture supplied from China.  The tariffs are subject to review and could result in retroactive and 
prospective tariff rate increases which could have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, 
or cash flows.

Provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act relating to “Conflict Minerals” may increase the Company's costs and reduce the 
Company's sales levels.  The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act contains provisions to improve 
transparency and accountability concerning the supply of certain minerals originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo 
(DRC) and adjoining countries that are believed to benefit armed groups.  As a result, the SEC has adopted new due diligence, 
disclosure, and reporting requirements for companies which manufacture products that include components containing such 
minerals, regardless of whether the minerals are actually mined in the DRC or adjoining countries.  Such regulations could 

13

decrease the availability and increase the prices of components used in our products, particularly if we choose (or are required 
by our customers) to source such components from different suppliers than we use now.  In addition, as our supply chain is 
complex and the process to comply with the new SEC rules will be cumbersome, we expect that the compliance process will be 
both time-consuming and costly.  We may face reduced sales if we are unable to timely verify the origins of minerals contained 
in the components included in our  products, or supply disruptions if our due diligence process reveals that materials we source 
originate in the DRC or adjoining countries. 

The value of the Company's common stock may experience substantial fluctuations for reasons over which the 
Company may have little control.  The value of common stock could fluctuate substantially based on a variety of factors, 
including, among others:

• 
• 
• 
• 

• 

actual or anticipated fluctuations in operating results;
announcements concerning the Company, competitors, or industry;
overall volatility of the stock market;
changes in the financial estimates of securities analysts or investors regarding the Company, the industry, or 
competitors; and
general market or economic conditions.

Furthermore, stock prices for many companies fluctuate widely for reasons that may be unrelated to their operating results.  
These fluctuations, coupled with changes in results of operations and general economic, political, and market conditions, may 
adversely affect the value of the Company's common stock.

Included in Unallocated Corporate are executive, national sales and administrative offices, and a recycling facility. 

Generally, properties are utilized at normal capacity levels on a multiple shift basis.  At times, certain facilities utilize a reduced 
second or third shift.  Due to sales fluctuations, not all facilities were utilized at normal capacity during fiscal year 2013.

Significant loss of income resulting from a facility catastrophe would be partially offset by business interruption insurance 
coverage.

Operating leases for all facilities and related land, including twelve leased office furniture showroom facilities which are not 
included in the tables above, total 218,000 square feet and expire from fiscal year 2014 to 2056 with many of the leases subject 
to renewal options.  The leased showroom facilities are in six states and the District of Columbia.  See Note 4 - Commitments 
and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning leases.

We own approximately 500 acres of land which includes land where various Company facilities reside, including 
approximately 180 acres of land in the Kimball Industrial Park, Jasper, Indiana (a site for certain production and other facilities, 
and for possible future expansions).

Item 3 - Legal Proceedings

The Registrant and its subsidiaries are not parties to any pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation

incorporated by reference to Item 12 - Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Share 
Owner Matters of Part III.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

A share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors was announced on October 16, 2007.  The program allows 
for the repurchase of up to two million shares of any combination of Class A and Class B shares and will remain in effect until 

16

all shares authorized have been repurchased.  The Company did not repurchase any shares under the repurchase program during 
the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013.  At June 30, 2013, two million shares remained available under the repurchase program.

Performance Graph

The following performance graph is not deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the SEC or subject to 
Regulation 14A or 14C under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 and will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates it by reference into such a filing.

The graph below compares the cumulative total return to Share Owners of the Company's Class B Common Stock from June 
30, 2008 through June 30, 2013, the last business day in the respective fiscal years, to the cumulative total return of the 
NASDAQ Stock Market (U.S. and Foreign) and a peer group index for the same period of time.  Due to the diversity of its 
operations, the Company is not aware of any public companies that are directly comparable to it.  Therefore, the peer group 
index is comprised of publicly traded companies in both of the Company's segments, as follows:

EMS segment:  Benchmark Electronics, Inc., Jabil Circuit, Inc., Plexus Corp.

Furniture segment:  HNI Corporation, Knoll, Inc., Steelcase Inc., Herman Miller, Inc.

In order to reflect the segment allocation of Kimball International, Inc., a market capitalization-weighted index was first 
computed for each segment group, then a composite peer group index was calculated based on each segment's proportion of net 
sales to total consolidated sales for each fiscal year.  The public companies included in the peer group have a larger revenue 
base than each of our business segments.

The graph assumes $100 is invested in the Company's stock and each of the two indexes at the closing market quotations on 
June 30, 2008 and that dividends are reinvested.  The performances shown on the graph are not necessarily indicative of future 
price performance.

Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business Overview

Kimball International, Inc. ("the Company," "Kimball," "we," us," or "our") provides a variety of products from our two 
business segments: the Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) segment and the Furniture segment.  The EMS segment 
provides engineering and manufacturing services which utilize common production and support capabilities globally to the 
automotive, medical, industrial, and public safety industries.  The Furniture segment provides furniture for the office and 
hospitality industries, sold under Kimball's family of brand names.

The pace of the economic recovery has been slow, and key economic indicators are showing mixed trends.  The uncertainty has 
the tendency to cause disruption in business strategy, execution, and timing in many of the markets in which we compete.

EMS industry projections (by IDC and IHS in the February 2013 MMI publication) are forecasting growth for calendar year 
2013 over 2012 in the 5% to 6% range.  Growth projections for calendar year 2014 are in the 4% to 8% range.  Additionally, in 
June 2013 the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) endorsed a forecast for year-over-year semiconductor sales growth of 
2% for calendar year 2013 and 5% for calendar year 2014, and although the Company does not directly serve this market, it 
may be indicative of the end market demand for products utilizing electronic components.  Kimball's focus is on the four key 

18

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
vertical markets of automotive, medical, industrial, and public safety within our EMS segment.  Our overall expectation for the 
EMS market is that of moderate growth, but with mixed demand.  The automotive end market is benefiting from relative 
strength in the U.S. market and an uptick in the Chinese automotive market, while demand in other geographies such as Europe 
continues to be less certain due to the lingering impact of the European debt crisis.  The industrial market demand is improving 
but continues to reflect a lower demand for heating, cooling, and ventilation (HVAC) products than historical levels.  Demand 
in the medical and public safety markets remains stable. 

The Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer Association (BIFMA) forecast (by IHS as of May 2013) projects a year-
over-year increase in the office furniture industry for calendar year 2013 of 4% driven by stronger growth in the latter half of 
calendar year 2013.  Improved year-over-year growth of 8% is projected for calendar year 2014.  The hospitality furniture 
market forecast (June 2013 PwC and PKF Hospitality Research reports) projects an increase in occupancy rates of 1% and an 
increase in RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room) of 6% for calendar year 2013 over calendar year 2012.  For calendar year 
2014, occupancy is forecast to increase 1% to 2%, and RevPAR is forecast to increase in the range of 6% to 8%.

The Company's focus on cost control continues.  At the same time, we plan to continue to invest in capital expenditures 
prudently for projects in support of both organic growth and potential acquisitions that would enhance our capabilities and 
diversification while providing an opportunity for growth and improved profitability.  We also continue to closely monitor 
market changes and our liquidity in order to proactively adjust our operating costs, discretionary capital spending, and dividend 
levels as needed.  Managing working capital in conjunction with fluctuating demand levels is likewise key.  In addition, a long-
standing component of Kimball's profit sharing incentive bonus plan is that it is linked to our worldwide, group, or business 
unit performance which is designed to adjust compensation expense as profits change. 

We continue to maintain a strong balance sheet, which included minimal long-term debt of $0.3 million and Share Owners' 
equity of $404.5 million as of June 30, 2013.  Our short-term liquidity available, represented as cash and cash equivalents plus 
the unused amount of our credit facilities, was $185.2 million at June 30, 2013.

In addition to the above discussion related to the current market conditions, management currently considers the following 
events, trends, and uncertainties to be most important to understanding Kimball's financial condition and operating 
performance:

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

Inflation has moderated and does not appear to be a significant risk in the near-term, but we continue to focus on 
mitigating the impact of raw material commodity pricing pressures.

Due to the contract and project nature of the EMS and Furniture industries, fluctuation in the demand for the Company's 
products and variation in the gross margin on those projects is inherent to our business.  Effective management of the 
manufacturing capacity is and will continue to be critical to our success. 

The healthcare reform legislation that was signed into law in March 2010 and upheld by the Supreme Court in June 2012 
is expected to increase our healthcare and related administrative expenses as the provisions of the law become effective 
over the next couple of years.

Globalization continues to reshape not only the industries in which we operate but also our key customers and 
competitors.

Kimball's employees throughout the business operations are an integral part of our ability to compete successfully, and the 
stability of the management team is critical to long-term Share Owner value.  Our career development and succession 
planning processes help to maintain stability in management.

Certain preceding statements could be considered forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform 
Act of 1995 and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, a significant change in economic 
conditions, loss of key customers or suppliers, or similar unforeseen events.  

Fiscal Year 2013 Results of Operations

Financial Overview - Consolidated

Fiscal year 2013 consolidated net sales were $1.20 billion compared to fiscal year 2012 net sales of $1.14 billion, a 5% 
increase, resulting from a 14% net sales increase in the EMS segment which more than offset a 5% net sales decrease in the 
Furniture segment.  Fiscal year 2013 net income was $19.9 million, or $0.52 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of $0.3 
million, or $0.01 per Class B diluted share, of after-tax restructuring costs.  The Company recorded net income for fiscal year 
2012 of $11.6 million, or $0.31 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of $2.1 million, or $0.06 per Class B diluted share, of after-
tax restructuring costs primarily related to the European consolidation plan.  

19

Consolidated gross profit as a percent of net sales improved to 18.6% for fiscal year 2013 from 18.4% in fiscal year 2012 due 
to margin improvement in the EMS segment, which was partially offset by a decline in Furniture segment margin coupled with 
a shift in sales mix (as depicted in the table below) toward the EMS segment which operates at a lower gross profit percentage 
than the Furniture segment.  Gross profit is discussed in more detail in the segment discussions below.

Fiscal year 2013 consolidated selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales increased 0.2 of a percentage point 
compared to fiscal year 2012, and increased 6.5% in absolute dollars primarily due to increased incentive compensation costs.  
In addition, we recorded $2.0 million more expense within selling and administrative expenses in fiscal year 2013 than fiscal 
year 2012 related to the normal revaluation to fair value of the Company's Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (SERP) 
liability.  The revaluation of the SERP liability recorded in selling and administrative expenses is exactly offset by the 
revaluation of the SERP investment recorded in Other Income (Expense), and thus there was no effect on net income.  
Employee contributions comprise approximately 90% of the SERP investment. 

Fiscal year 2013 other expense, net totaled $0.3 million compared to $0.7 million for fiscal year 2012. Other income (expense) 
consisted of the following:

The impairment loss on privately-held investment and the loss on stock warrants listed in the table above both relate to the 
Company's investment in one privately-held company.  See the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more detailed 
information.

The fiscal year 2013 effective tax rate of 12.3% was favorably impacted by a high mix of earnings in foreign jurisdictions 
which have lower statutory tax rates than the U.S.  The fiscal year 2012 effective tax rate was 34.3%.  See Note 8 - Income 
Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Comparing the balance sheet as of June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2012, the increase in accounts receivable was primarily a result of 
higher EMS segment sales volumes and a shift in the mix of EMS segment sales at the end of fiscal year 2013 toward 
customers with longer payment terms.  Kimball's accounts payable balance increased primarily due to higher costs resulting 
from increased EMS segment production volumes.

Fiscal year 2013 EMS segment net sales to customers in the automotive, medical, industrial, and public safety industries all 
increased compared to fiscal year 2012.  Open orders as of June 30, 2013 were up 2% compared to June 30, 2012.  Open orders 
at a point in time may not be indicative of future sales trends due to the contract nature of the Company's business.

Fiscal year 2013 EMS segment gross profit as a percent of net sales improved 2.0 percentage points when compared to fiscal 
year 2012.  The improvement in gross profit as a percent of net sales was primarily the result of leverage gained on higher 
revenue as well as benefits gained from global purchasing efforts and operating efficiencies related to continuous improvement 
initiatives.  The EMS segment fiscal year 2013 gross profit was also favorably impacted by the benefits realized from 
restructuring activities in which two facilities were closed during the second quarter of fiscal year 2012.  EMS segment fiscal 
year 2013 gross profit was unfavorably impacted by a $1.4 million inventory reserve recorded relating to a customer that 
notified us they are going out of business.  

EMS segment selling and administrative expenses in absolute dollars increased 15% in fiscal year 2013 as compared to fiscal 
year 2012, and were flat as a percent of net sales due to the higher sales volumes.  The selling and administrative expenses 
increased primarily due to higher incentive compensation costs related to the significant improvement in the EMS segment 
earnings.   

The previously announced exit of the Company's small assembly facility located in Fremont, California was completed during 
fiscal year 2012 along with the associated move of a majority of that business to the Jasper, Indiana facility.  In addition, the 
previously announced consolidation of the Company's European EMS facilities was likewise completed during fiscal year 
2012.  See Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on 
restructuring charges. 

EMS segment Other Income (Expense) for fiscal year 2013 totaled expense of $0.9 million, compared to expense of $0.3 
million in fiscal year 2012.  The variance in Other Income (Expense) was primarily related to net foreign currency exchange 
movement.

Included in this segment were a significant amount of sales to Johnson Controls, Inc. which accounted for the following 
portions of consolidated net sales and EMS segment net sales:

The nature of the electronic manufacturing services industry is such that the start-up of new customers and new programs to 
replace expiring programs occurs frequently.  New customers and program start-ups generally cause losses early in the life of a 
program, which are generally recovered as the program becomes established and matures.  

Risk factors within the EMS segment include, but are not limited to, general economic and market conditions, customer order 
delays, increased globalization, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, rapid technological changes, component 
availability, supplier and customer financial stability, the contract nature of this industry, the concentration of sales to large 
customers, and the potential for customers to choose a dual sourcing strategy or to in-source a greater portion of their 

21

 
 
 
 
  
 
electronics manufacturing.  The continuing success of this segment is dependent upon our ability to replace expiring customers/
programs with new customers/programs.  Additional risk factors that could have an effect on our performance are located 
within Item 1A - Risk Factors.

The fiscal year 2013 net sales decrease in the Furniture segment compared to fiscal year 2012 resulted primarily from 
decreased net sales of hospitality furniture and to a lesser extent from decreased net sales of office furniture.  The lower 
hospitality furniture net sales were due to two unusually large custom projects that were completed during fiscal year 2012.  
The decrease in office furniture net sales was due to decreased sales volumes which more than offset the positive impact of 
price increases net of incremental discounting.  The largest driver of the decreased office furniture sales volumes was lower 
sales to the federal government.

Fiscal year 2013 sales of newly introduced office furniture products which have been sold for less than twelve months 
approximated $8.9 million.  Open orders of furniture products at June 30, 2013 increased 33% from the orders open as of 
June 30, 2012 on higher orders of both office furniture and hospitality furniture.  Open orders at a point in time may not be 
indicative of future sales trends.

Fiscal year 2013 Furniture segment gross profit as a percent of net sales declined 0.4 of a percentage point when compared to 
fiscal year 2012.  Items unfavorably impacting the year-over-year gross margin comparison were the loss of leverage due to 
lower current year sales volumes, an unfavorable sales mix, a prior year favorable impact resulting from a decrease in the LIFO 
inventory reserve, and a prior year recovery of previously paid import duties related to a retroactive change in a tariff rate.  
Fiscal year 2013 gross profit as a percent of net sales was favorably impacted by sales price increases net of incremental 
discounting and by lower commodity costs. 

Compared to fiscal year 2012, fiscal year 2013 selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales increased 1.9 
percentage points largely due to the lower sales volumes and also due to a 2.1% absolute dollar increase in selling and 
administrative expenses driven by higher incentive compensation costs which were partially offset by decreased sales and 
marketing costs and decreased commission expense.

Risk factors within this segment include, but are not limited to, general economic and market conditions, increased global 
competition, financial stability of customers and suppliers, supply chain cost pressures, and relationships with strategic 
customers and product distributors.  Additional risk factors that could have an effect on our performance are located within 
Item 1A - Risk Factors.

Fiscal Year 2012 Results of Operations

Financial Overview - Consolidated

Fiscal year 2012 consolidated net sales were $1.14 billion compared to fiscal year 2011 net sales of $1.20 billion, a 5% 
decrease, resulting from a 15% net sales decrease in the EMS segment which more than offset a 9% net sales increase in the 
Furniture segment.  Fiscal year 2012 net income was $11.6 million, or $0.31 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of $2.1 
million, or $0.06 per Class B diluted share, of after-tax restructuring costs primarily related to the European consolidation plan.  
The Company recorded net income for fiscal year 2011 of $4.9 million, or $0.14 per Class B diluted share, inclusive of $0.6 
million, or $0.01 per Class B diluted share, of after-tax restructuring costs primarily related to the European consolidation plan.  

22

 
 
 
 
Consolidated gross profit as a percent of net sales improved to 18.4% for fiscal year 2012 from 16.2% in fiscal year 2011 due to 
margin improvement in both the EMS and Furniture segments coupled with a shift in sales mix (as depicted in the table below) 
toward the Furniture segment which operates at a higher gross profit percentage than the EMS segment.  Gross profit is 
discussed in more detail in the segment discussions below.

Fiscal year 2012 consolidated selling and administrative expenses decreased 1.6% in absolute dollars, but increased as a 
percent of net sales, compared to fiscal year 2011, on decreased operating leverage due to lower revenue.  We recorded $3.1 
million less expense within selling and administrative expenses in fiscal year 2012 than fiscal year 2011 related to the normal 
revaluation to fair value of the Company's SERP liability.  The revaluation of the SERP liability recorded in selling and 
administrative expenses is exactly offset by the revaluation of the SERP investment  recorded in Other Income (Expense); 
therefore, there was no effect on net earnings.  Partially offsetting the lower SERP expense was an increase in incentive 
compensation expenses in fiscal year 2012 as compared to fiscal year 2011. 

Fiscal year 2012 other expense, net totaled $0.7 million compared to other income, net of $2.0 million for fiscal year 2011.

The impairment loss on privately-held investment, the impairment loss on convertible debt securities, and the gain (loss) on 
stock warrants listed in the table above all relate to Kimball's investment in one privately-held company.  See the Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements for more detailed information.

The fiscal year 2012 effective tax rate was 34.3%.  The fiscal year 2011 effective tax rate was (10.9)% as relatively low pre-tax 
income coupled with the favorable impact of the Company's earnings mix and the research and development credit resulted in a 
tax benefit despite our pre-tax income.  The mix of earnings between U.S. and foreign jurisdictions largely contributed to the 
overall tax benefit due to losses in the U.S. which have a higher statutory tax rate than our foreign operations which were 
profitable in fiscal year 2011.  See Note 8 - Income Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Fiscal year 2012 EMS segment net sales to customers in the medical, industrial, and public safety industries decreased 
compared to fiscal year 2011 which more than offset an increase in net sales to customers in the automotive industry.  The 
decline in net sales to the medical industry was attributable to the expiration of a contract with one medical customer (Bayer 
AG) late in fiscal year 2011 which accounted for a $130.7 million decline in net sales in fiscal year 2012.  Excluding this 
customer, net sales to the medical industry, as well as the overall EMS segment net sales, increased in fiscal year 2012 
compared to fiscal year 2011.  Open orders as of June 30, 2012 were up 3% compared to June 30, 2011.  

Fiscal year 2012 EMS segment gross profit as a percent of net sales improved 1.4 percentage points when compared to fiscal 
year 2011.  The improvement was primarily driven by the benefit from a sales mix shift toward higher margin product and 
benefits realized related to restructuring activities in which two facilities were closed during the second quarter of fiscal year 
2012.

EMS segment selling and administrative expenses in absolute dollars decreased 11% in fiscal year 2012 as compared to fiscal 
year 2011, but increased as a percent of net sales on the lower sales volumes.  The selling and administrative expenses declined 
primarily due to benefits realized from restructuring activities within this segment.  

EMS segment Other Income (Expense) for fiscal year 2012 totaled expense of $0.3 million, compared to expense of $1.9 
million in fiscal year 2011.  The variance in Other Income (Expense) was primarily related to net foreign currency exchange 
movement.

Included in this segment were a significant amount of sales to Bayer AG affiliates in fiscal year 2011 which accounted for the 
following portions of consolidated net sales and EMS segment net sales:

Kimball's sales to Bayer AG declined due to the expiration of our primary manufacturing contract with this customer.  This 
contract accounted for a majority of the sales to Bayer AG during fiscal year 2011.  Margins on the Bayer AG product were 
generally lower than the Company's other EMS products.

The fiscal year 2012 net sales increase in the Furniture segment compared to fiscal year 2011 resulted primarily from increased 
net sales of hospitality furniture and to a lesser extent from increased net sales of office furniture.  The increase in net sales of 
hospitality furniture was driven by large custom projects during fiscal year 2012.  The increase in office furniture net sales was 
due to the positive impact of price increases net of incremental discounting which more than offset a decrease in sales volume. 
Fiscal year 2012 sales of newly introduced office furniture products which have been sold for less than twelve months 
approximated $13.5 million.  Open orders of furniture products at June 30, 2012 decreased 20% from the orders open as of 
June 30, 2011 primarily due to lower office furniture orders from the U.S. federal government and a large hospitality custom 
project received near the end of fiscal year 2011 which was included in the June 30, 2011 open orders.  

Fiscal year 2012 Furniture segment gross profit as a percent of net sales improved 0.7 percentage points when compared to 
fiscal year 2011.  Fiscal year 2012 gross profit as a percent of net sales was favorably impacted by sales price increases net of 
incremental discounting, by a recovery of previously paid import duties related to a retroactive change in a tariff rate, and by 
the favorable impact resulting from a decrease in the LIFO inventory reserve. The improvement in fiscal year 2012 gross profit 
as a percent of net sales was partially offset by commodity cost increases, higher freight and fuel costs, and the impact of 
excess operating capacity at select locations.  

Fiscal year 2012 selling and administrative expenses increased in absolute dollars by 3.9%, but decreased as a percent of net 
sales on the higher sales volumes, when compared to fiscal year 2011.  The selling and administrative expenses were impacted 
by higher salary expenses, higher incentive compensation costs, and increased travel expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital at June 30, 2013 was $214.4 million compared to working capital of $191.0 million at June 30, 2012.  The 
current ratio was 2.0 at both June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Our measure of accounts receivable performance, also referred to as Days Sales Outstanding (DSO), for fiscal year 2013 of 
44.0 days improved compared to the 45.7 days for fiscal year 2012.  We define DSO as the average of monthly accounts and 
notes receivable divided by an average day's net sales.  Our Production Days Supply on Hand (PDSOH) of inventory measure 
for fiscal year 2013 declined to 55.6 days from 58.9 days for fiscal year 2012.  The improved PDSOH compared to the prior 
fiscal year resulted from ongoing successful initiatives to reduce or maintain EMS segment inventory levels as the business 
grows.  We define PDSOH as the average of the monthly gross inventory divided by an average day's cost of sales.

Kimball's short-term liquidity available, represented as cash and cash equivalents plus the unused amounts of our credit 
facilities, totaled $185.2 million at June 30, 2013 compared to $181.2 million at June 30, 2012. 

Our cash and cash equivalents position improved to $103.6 million at June 30, 2013 from $75.2 million at June 30, 2012.  We 
had no short-term borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2013 or June 30, 2012.  Operating activities generated $63.9 million 
of cash flow in fiscal year 2013 compared to the $59.0 million of cash generated by operating activities in fiscal year 2012.  
During fiscal year 2013, we reinvested $28.8 million into capital investments for the future with the largest investments being 
made for manufacturing equipment and facility improvements within both segments.  Kimball also paid $7.4 million of 
dividends in fiscal year 2013.  Consistent with our historical dividend policy, the Company's Board of Directors will evaluate 
the appropriate dividend payment on a quarterly basis.  During fiscal year 2014, we expect to continue to invest in capital 
expenditures prudently, particularly for projects including potential acquisitions that would enhance our capabilities and 
diversification while providing an opportunity for growth and improved profitability.

25

 
 
 
 
During fiscal year 2013, Kimball entered into a credit agreement which amended, restated, and extended the Company's 
previously existing primary five-year credit facility.  Kimball elected to decrease the borrowing limit on our primary credit 
facility to $75 million from the $100 million under the previous agreement.  We believe our principal sources of liquidity from 
available funds on hand, cash generated from operations, and the availability of borrowing under our credit facilities will be 
sufficient for the foreseeable future. 

At both June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, we had no short-term borrowings outstanding under either the $75 million credit 
facility or the former $100 million credit facility.  At June 30, 2013, the Company had $3.9 million in letters of credit against 
the $75 million credit facility.  

The $75 million credit facility has a maturity date of December 2017, and allows for both issuances of letters of credit and cash 
borrowings.  The $75 million credit facility provides an option to increase the amount available for borrowing to $115 million 
at our request, subject to the consent of the participating banks.  The $75 million credit facility requires us to comply with 
certain debt covenants, the most significant of which are the ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (debt 
to EBITDA) and minimum net worth (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income).  We were in compliance with the 
respective debt covenants of both the $75 million credit facility and the previous $100 million credit facility during the fiscal 
year ended June 30, 2013. 

The table below compares the actual net worth and debt to EBITDA ratio with the limits specified in the credit agreement.

The debt to EBITDA Ratio is calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis as defined in the credit agreement.

In addition to the $75 million credit facility, the Company can opt to utilize foreign credit facilities which are available to 
satisfy short-term cash needs at a specific foreign location rather than funding from intercompany sources.  We maintain a $2.7 
million foreign credit facility for our EMS segment operation in Thailand which is backed by the $75 million revolving credit 
facility via a letter of credit.  We have a credit facility for our EMS segment operation in Poland, which allows for multi-
currency borrowings up to 6.0 million Euro equivalent (approximately $7.8 million U.S. dollars at June 30, 2013 exchange 
rates).  These foreign credit facilities can be canceled at any time by either the bank or by us.  We had no borrowings 
outstanding under these foreign credit facilities as of June 30, 2013 or June 30, 2012.

Total availability to borrow in USD equivalent under all of our credit facilities totaled $81.6 million at June 30, 2013.

Another source of funds in addition to our credit facilities has been our ability to generate cash from operations to meet our 
liquidity obligations which could be adversely affected in the future by factors such as general economic and market 
conditions, lack of availability of raw material components in the supply chain, a decline in demand for our products, loss of 
key contract customers, the ability of Kimball to generate profits, and other unforeseen circumstances.  In particular, should 
demand for our products decrease significantly over the next 12 months, the available cash provided by operations could be 
adversely impacted.  

The preceding statements include forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  
Certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements.

Fair Value

During fiscal year 2013, no level 1 or level 2 financial instruments were affected by a lack of market liquidity.  For level 1 
financial assets, readily available market pricing was used to value the financial instruments.  The Company's foreign currency 
derivatives, which were classified as level 2 assets/liabilities, were independently valued using observable market inputs such 
as forward interest rate yield curves, current spot rates, and time value calculations. To verify the reasonableness of the 
independently determined fair values, these derivative fair values were compared to fair values calculated by the counterparty 
banks.  The Company's own credit risk and counterparty credit risk had an immaterial impact on the valuation of the foreign 
currency derivatives.

During fiscal year 2010, we purchased the convertible debt securities of a privately-held company with the principal and 
interest due in June 2011.  We also received stock warrants to purchase the common and preferred stock of the privately-held 
company at a specified exercise price.  During fiscal year 2011, the convertible debt securities experienced an other-than-
temporary decline in fair value resulting in a $1.2 million impairment loss and, upon a qualified financing, were subsequently 

26

converted to non-marketable equity securities.  Also during fiscal year 2011, the revaluation of stock warrants resulted in a $1.0 
million derivative gain as a result of the qualified financing.  During fiscal year 2012, the privately-held company experienced 
delays in their start-up, and therefore initiated another round of financing that we chose not to participate in, which resulted in 
the automatic conversion of preferred shares and warrants to common shares and warrants.  Upon the conversion, the equity 
securities and warrants were revalued, resulting in an impairment loss of $0.7 million on the equity securities and a $0.5 million 
derivative loss on the stock warrants during fiscal year 2012.  During fiscal year 2013, due to certain events and changes in 
circumstances that had an adverse effect on the fair value of the investment in the privately-held company, we revalued the 
investment which resulted in a $1.0 million impairment loss on the equity securities and a $0.9 million derivative loss on the 
stock warrants.

The investment in non-marketable equity securities is accounted for as a cost-method investment which carries the securities at 
cost. In the event of impairment, the valuation uses a probability-weighted Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The stock 
warrants are classified as derivative instruments and are valued on a recurring basis using a market-based approach which 
utilizes a probability-weighted Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The fair value measurements for stock warrants and the 
impairment of non-marketable equity securities were calculated using unobservable inputs and were classified as level 3 
financial assets.

See Note 10 - Fair Value of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

(b)  Refer to Note 5 - Long-Term Debt and Credit Facilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more 

information regarding Long-Term Debt Obligations.  Accrued interest is also included on the Long-Term Debt 
Obligations line.  The fiscal year 2014 amount includes less than $0.1 million of long-term debt obligations due in fiscal 
year 2014 which were recorded as a current liability.  The estimated interest not yet accrued related to debt is included in 
the Other line item within the Unrecorded Contractual Obligations.

•  The timing of SERP payments is estimated based on an assumed retirement age of 62 with payout based on the 

prior distribution elections of participants.  The fiscal year 2014 amount includes $7.0 million for SERP payments 
recorded as current liabilities.

•  The timing of severance plan payments is estimated based on the average remaining service life of employees.  
The fiscal year 2014 amount includes $1.0 million for severance payments recorded as a current liability.

•  The timing of warranty payments is estimated based on historical data.  The fiscal year 2014 amount includes 

$0.5 million for short-term warranty payments recorded as a current liability.

for which the Company cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the period of future payments.

Refer to Note 4 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more 
information regarding Operating Leases and certain Other Long-Term Liabilities.

Purchase Obligations are defined as agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding 
and that specify all significant terms.  The amounts listed above for purchase obligations include contractual 
commitments for items such as raw materials, supplies, capital expenditures, services, and software acquisitions/license 
commitments.  Cancellable purchase obligations that the Company intends to fulfill are also included in the purchase 
obligations amount listed above through fiscal year 2018.  In certain instances, such as when lead times dictate, the 
Company enters into contractual agreements for material in excess of the levels required to fulfill customer orders.  In 
turn, agreements with the customers cover a portion of that exposure for the material which was purchased prior to 
having a firm order.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements other than standby letters of credit and operating leases entered into in the normal 
course of business.  These arrangements do not have a material current effect and are not reasonably likely to have a material 
future effect on Kimball's financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.  See 
Note 4 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on 
standby letters of credit.  The Company does not have material exposures to trading activities of non-exchange traded contracts.

The preceding statements are forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Certain 
factors could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Kimball's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in 
the United States of America.  These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and 
disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and related notes.  Actual results could differ from these estimates and 
assumptions.  Management uses its best judgment in the assumptions used to value these estimates, which are based on current 
facts and circumstances, prior experience, and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable.  Management overlays a 
fundamental philosophy of valuing its assets and liabilities in an appropriately conservative manner.  Management believes the 
following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our 
consolidated financial statements and are the policies that are most critical in the portrayal of Kimball's financial position and 
results of operations.  Management has discussed these critical accounting policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of 
the Company's Board of Directors and with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

Revenue recognition - Kimball recognizes revenue when title and risk transfer to the customer, which under the terms and 
conditions of the sale may occur either at the time of shipment or when the product is delivered to the customer.  Service 
revenue is recognized as services are rendered.  Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as sales while the 
related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.  We recognize sales net of applicable sales tax.

• 

Sales returns and allowances - At the time revenue is recognized certain provisions may also be recorded, including a 
provision for returns and allowances, which involve estimates based on current discussions with applicable customers, 
historical experience with a particular customer and/or product, and other relevant factors.  As such, these factors may 
change over time causing the provisions to be adjusted accordingly.  At June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, the reserve 
for returns and allowances was $1.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively.  The returns and allowances reserve 
approximated 1% to 2% of gross trade receivables during fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

•  Allowance for doubtful accounts - Allowance for doubtful accounts is generally based on a percentage of aged 

accounts receivable, where the percentage increases as the accounts receivable become older.  However, management 
judgment is utilized in the final determination of the allowance based on several factors including specific analysis of 
a customer's credit worthiness, changes in a customer's payment history, historical bad debt experience, and general 
economic and market trends.  The allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012 was $1.8 
million and $0.8 million, respectively, with a large portion of the increase attributable to one Furniture segment 
customer.  This reserve approximated 1% of gross trade accounts receivable during fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

28

Excess and obsolete inventory - Inventories were valued using the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market value for 
approximately 16% and 10% of consolidated inventories at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, including 
approximately 87% and 78% of the Furniture segment inventories at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively.  The 
remaining inventories were valued at lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market value.  Inventories recorded on our 
balance sheet are adjusted for excess and obsolete inventory.  In general, we purchase materials and finished goods for contract-
based business from customer orders and projections, primarily in the case of long lead time items, and we have a general 
philosophy to only purchase materials to the extent covered by a written commitment from our customers.  However, there are 
times when inventory is purchased beyond customer commitments due to minimum lot sizes and inventory lead time 
requirements, or where component allocation or other procurement issues may exist.  We may also purchase additional 
inventory to support transfers of production between manufacturing facilities.  Evaluation of excess inventory includes such 
factors as anticipated usage, inventory turnover, inventory levels, and product demand levels.  Factors considered when 
evaluating inventory obsolescence include the age of on-hand inventory and reduction in value due to damage, use as 
showroom samples, design changes, or cessation of product lines.

Self-insurance reserves - Kimball is self-insured up to certain limits for auto and general liability, workers' compensation, and 
certain employee health benefits such as medical, short-term disability, and dental with the related liabilities included in the 
accompanying financial statements.  Our policy is to estimate reserves based upon a number of factors including known claims, 
estimated incurred but not reported claims, and other analyses, which are based on historical information along with certain 
assumptions about future events.  Changes in assumptions for such matters as increased medical costs and changes in actual 
experience could cause these estimates to change and reserve levels to be adjusted accordingly.  At June 30, 2013 and June 30, 
2012, our accrued liabilities for self-insurance exposure were $3.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

Taxes - Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to 
temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax 
bases.  These assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in 
which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.  We evaluate the recoverability of our deferred tax assets each quarter 
by assessing the likelihood of future profitability and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize our 
deferred tax assets.  If recovery is not likely, we provide a valuation allowance based on our best estimate of future taxable 
income in the various taxing jurisdictions and the amount of deferred taxes ultimately realizable.  Future events could change 
management's assessment.

We operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions.  These audits can involve 
complex issues, which may require an extended period of time to resolve.  However, we believe we have made adequate 
provision for income and other taxes for all years that are subject to audit.  As tax periods are effectively settled, the provision 
will be adjusted accordingly.  The liability for uncertain income tax and other tax positions, including accrued interest and 
penalties on those positions, was $3.9 million at June 30, 2013 and $3.8 million at June 30, 2012.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information 
regarding New Accounting Standards.  

Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk: Kimball operates internationally and thus is subject to potentially adverse movements in foreign 
currency rate changes.  Our risk management strategy includes the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge certain 
foreign currency exposures.  Derivatives are used only to manage underlying exposures and are not used in a speculative 
manner.  Further information on derivative financial instruments is provided in Note 11 - Derivative Instruments of Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements.  We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates 
from levels at June 30, 2013 and 2012 relative to non-functional currency balances of monetary instruments, to the extent not 
hedged by derivative instruments, would not have a material impact on profitability in an annual period. 

Equity Risk:  Kimball holds an investment in the non-marketable equity securities and stock warrants of a privately-held 
company.  If the private company experiences certain events or circumstances, such as the loss of customers, the inability to 
achieve growth initiatives, or if there are factors beyond its control in the markets which it serves, the private company's 
performance could be affected materially resulting in a loss of some or all of its value, which could result in an other-than-
temporary impairment of the investment.  If an other-than-temporary impairment of fair value would occur, the investment 
would be adjusted down to its fair value and an impairment charge would be recognized in earnings.

29

During fiscal year 2013, due to certain events and changes in circumstances that had an adverse effect on the fair value of the 
investment in the privately-held company, we revalued the investment which resulted in a $1.0 million impairment loss on the 
equity securities and a $0.9 million derivative loss on the stock warrants.  During fiscal year 2012, the privately-held company 
experienced delays in their start-up, and therefore initiated another round of financing that the Company chose not to 
participate in, which resulted in the automatic conversion of preferred shares and warrants to common shares and warrants.  
Upon the conversion, the equity securities and warrants were revalued, resulting in an impairment loss of $0.7 million on the 
equity securities and a $0.5 million derivative loss on stock warrants.  The non-marketable equity investment had a carrying 
amount of $0.1 million and $1.1 million as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and the stock warrants had a carrying 
amount of $0.0 million and $0.9 million as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Kimball International, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over 
financial reporting and for the preparation and integrity of the accompanying financial statements and other related information 
in this report.  The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the footnotes, were 
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include judgments 
and estimates, which in the opinion of management are applied on an appropriately conservative basis.  We maintain a system 
of internal and disclosure controls intended to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded from loss or material 
misuse, transactions are authorized and recorded properly, and that the accounting records may be relied upon for the 
preparation of the financial statements.  This system is tested and evaluated regularly for adherence and effectiveness by 
employees who work within the internal control processes, by our staff of internal auditors, as well as by the independent 
registered public accounting firm in connection with their annual audit.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which is comprised of directors who are not employees of the Company, meets 
regularly with management, our internal auditors, and the independent registered public accounting firm to review our financial 
policies and procedures, our internal control structure, the objectivity of our financial reporting, and the independence of the 
independent registered public accounting firm.  The internal auditors and the independent registered public accounting firm 
have free and direct access to the Audit Committee, and they meet periodically, without management present, to discuss 
appropriate matters.

Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements 
and even when determined to be effective, can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement 
preparation and presentation.

These consolidated financial statements are subject to an evaluation of internal control over financial reporting conducted under 
the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  
Based on that evaluation, conducted under the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued 
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, management concluded that our internal control 
over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2013.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an audit report on our internal control 
over financial reporting which is included herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Share Owners of Kimball International, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kimball International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the 
"Company") as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, share 
owners' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013.  Our audits also included the 
financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15.  We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial 
reporting as of June 30, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the 
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  The Company's management is responsible for these 
financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for 
its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's 
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 
and financial statement schedule and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial 
statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in 
all material respects.  Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the 
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  Our audit of internal control over financial reporting 
included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness 
exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audits 
also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's 
principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's 
board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial 
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles.  A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the 
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of 
the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial 
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are 
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable 
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that 
could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or 
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a 
timely basis.  Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future 
periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of 
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial 
position of Kimball International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and 
their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles 
generally accepted in the United States of America.  Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered 
in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the 
information set forth therein.  Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control 
over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework 
(1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

KIMBALL INTERNATIONAL, INC.
 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all domestic and foreign 
subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the 
United States of America (US GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 
amounts included in the consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures.  While efforts are made to assure 
estimates used are reasonably accurate based on management's knowledge of current events, actual results could differ from 
those estimates.

 Revenue Recognition: Revenue from product sales is recognized when title and risk transfer to the customer, which under the 
terms and conditions of the sale, may occur either at the time of shipment or when the product is delivered to the customer. 
Service revenue is recognized as services are rendered.  Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recorded as sales 
while the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.  We recognize sales net of applicable sales tax.  
Based on estimated product returns and price concessions, a reserve for returns and allowances is recorded at the time of the 
sale, resulting in a reduction of revenue.  

 Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three 
months or less at the time of acquisition.  Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank accounts and money market funds.  Bank 
accounts are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and money market funds are stated at fair value.  

  Notes Receivable and Trade Accounts Receivable: Kimball's notes receivable and trade accounts receivable are recorded per 
the terms of the agreement or sale, and accrued interest is recognized when earned. We determine on a case-by-case basis the 
cessation of accruing interest, the resumption of accruing interest, the method of recording payments received on nonaccrual 
receivables, and the delinquency status for our limited number of notes receivable. 

Our policy for estimating the allowance for credit losses on trade accounts receivable and notes receivable includes analysis of 
such items as agement, credit worthiness, payment history, and historical bad debt experience.  Management uses these specific 
analyses in conjunction with an evaluation of the general economic and market conditions to determine the final allowance for 
credit losses on the trade accounts receivable and notes receivable.  Trade accounts receivable and notes receivable are written 
off after exhaustive collection efforts occur and the receivable is deemed uncollectible.  Our limited number of notes receivable 
allows management to monitor the risks, credit quality indicators, collectability, and probability of impairment on an individual 
basis.  Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are recorded in selling and administrative expenses.  

In the ordinary course of business, customers periodically negotiate extended payment terms on trade accounts receivable.  We 
may utilize accounts receivable factoring arrangements with third-party financial institutions in order to extend terms for the 
customer without negatively impacting our cash flow.  These arrangements in all cases do not contain recourse provisions 
which would obligate us in the event of our customers' failure to pay.  Receivables are considered sold when they are 
transferred beyond the reach of Kimball and its creditors, the purchaser has the right to pledge or exchange the receivables, and 
we have surrendered control over the transferred receivables.  During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we sold, 
without recourse, $207.0 million and $58.6 million of accounts receivable, respectively.  Factoring fees were not material.

 Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost includes material, labor, and applicable 
manufacturing overhead.  Costs associated with underutilization of capacity are expensed as incurred.  The last-in, first-out 
(LIFO) method was used for approximately 16% and 10% of consolidated inventories at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, 
respectively, and remaining inventories were valued using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.  Inventories are adjusted for 
excess and obsolete inventory.  Evaluation of excess inventory includes such factors as anticipated usage, inventory turnover, 
inventory levels, and product demand levels.  Factors considered when evaluating obsolescence include the age of on-hand 
inventory and reduction in value due to damage, use as showroom samples, design changes, or cessation of product lines.

 Property, Equipment, and Depreciation: Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  
Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of the assets using the straight-line method for financial reporting 
purposes.  Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement 
or the term of the lease.  Major maintenance activities and improvements are capitalized; other maintenance, repairs, and minor 
renewals and betterments are expensed.

 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: We perform reviews for impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.  An impairment loss is recognized when 
estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying 

39

amount.  When an impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value.  Assets to be 
disposed of are recorded at the lower of net book value or fair market value less cost to sell at the date management commits to 
a plan of disposal.

 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the related 
underlying tangible and intangible net asset fair values resulting from business acquisitions.  Annually, or if conditions indicate 
an earlier review is necessary, we may assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value is 
less than its carrying amount and if it is necessary to perform the quantitative two-step goodwill impairment test.  We also have 
the option to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to performing the first step of the quantitative goodwill 
impairment test.  If the first step is determined to be necessary, we compare the carrying value of the reporting unit to an 
estimate of the reporting unit's fair value to identify potential impairment.  If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less 
than the carrying value, a second step is performed to determine the amount of potential goodwill impairment.  If impaired, 
goodwill is written down to its estimated implied fair value.  Goodwill is assigned to and the fair value is tested at the reporting 
unit level.  The fair value is established primarily using a discounted cash flow analysis and secondarily a market approach 
utilizing current industry information.  The calculation of the fair value of the reporting units considers current market 
conditions existing at the assessment date.  During fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, no goodwill impairment loss was 
recognized.

In addition to performing the required annual testing, we will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods to 
determine whether additional goodwill impairment testing is warranted on an interim basis.  We can provide no assurance that 
an impairment charge for the remaining goodwill balance, which approximates only 0.4% of the Company's total assets, will 
not occur in future periods as a result of these analyses.

Other Intangible Assets reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of capitalized software, product rights, and 
customer relationships.  Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying 
value may not be recoverable over the remaining lives of the assets.

During fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, amortization expense of other intangible assets was, in thousands, $2,132, $2,669, 
and $2,367, respectively.  Amortization expense in future periods is expected to be, in thousands, $1,749, $1,133, $636, $521, 
and $386 in the five years ending June 30, 2018, and $851 thereafter.  The amortization period for product rights is 7 years.  
The amortization period for the customer relationship intangible asset ranges from 10 to 16 years.  The estimated useful life of 
internal-use software ranges from 3 to 10 years.  During fiscal year 2012, the Furniture segment recognized impairment of 
$256, in thousands, related to intangible product rights for a product line with volumes much lower than originally forecasted.  
The impairment loss was included in the Selling and Administrative Expenses line of the Consolidated Statements of Income.  

Internal-use software is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and is amortized using the straight-line method.  During 
the software application development stage, capitalized costs include external consulting costs, cost of software licenses, and 
internal payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with a software project.  Upgrades and 
enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enable the software to perform tasks it was previously 
incapable of performing.  Software maintenance, training, data conversion, and business process reengineering costs are 
expensed in the period in which they are incurred. 

Product rights to produce and sell certain products are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, and 
capitalized customer relationships are amortized on estimated attrition rate of customers.  We have no intangible assets with 
indefinite useful lives which are not subject to amortization. 

 Research and Development: The costs of research and development are expensed as incurred.  Research and development 
costs were approximately, in millions, $14, $13, and $13 in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

 Advertising: Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.  Advertising costs, included in selling and administrative expenses 
were, in millions, $3.2, $4.7, and $4.3, in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. 

 Insurance and Self-insurance: We are self-insured up to certain limits for auto and general liability, workers' compensation, 
and certain employee health benefits including medical, short-term disability, and dental, with the related liabilities included in 
the accompanying financial statements.  Our policy is to estimate reserves based upon a number of factors including known 
claims, estimated incurred but not reported claims, and other analyses, which are based on historical information along with 
certain assumptions about future events.  Approximately 60% of the workforce is covered under self-insured medical and short-
term disability plans.

We carry external medical and disability insurance coverage for the remainder of our eligible workforce not covered by self-
insured plans.  Insurance benefits are not provided to retired employees.

 Income Taxes: Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable 
to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective 
tax bases.  These assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in 
which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.  We evaluate the recoverability of deferred tax assets each quarter by 
assessing the likelihood of future profitability and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize our 

41

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
deferred tax assets.  If recovery is not likely, we provide a valuation allowance based on our best estimate of future taxable 
income in the various taxing jurisdictions and the amount of deferred taxes ultimately realizable.  Future events could change 
management's assessment.

We operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to tax audits in these jurisdictions.  These audits can involve 
complex uncertain tax positions, which may require an extended period of time to resolve.  A tax benefit from an uncertain tax 
position may be recognized only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing 
authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.  We maintain a liability for uncertain income tax and other tax 
positions, including accrued interest and penalties on those positions.  As tax periods are effectively settled, the liability is 
adjusted accordingly.  We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the Provision (Benefit) for 
Income Taxes line of the Consolidated Statements of Income.  

 Concentrations of Credit Risk: We have business and credit risks concentrated in the automotive, medical, industrial, public 
safety, and furniture industries.  Additionally, we currently have notes receivable with an electronics engineering services firm, 
a note receivable related to the sale of an Indiana facility, and other miscellaneous notes receivable.  At June 30, 2013 and 2012, 
$2.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively, were outstanding under the notes receivables.  The credit risk associated with 
receivables is disclosed in Note 19 - Credit Quality and Allowance for Credit Losses of Notes Receivable of Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

 Off-Balance Sheet Risk: Kimball's off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to operating leases entered into in the normal 
course of business as described in Note 4 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities of Notes to Consolidated Financial 
Statements.

Non-operating Income and Expense: Non-operating income and expense include the impact of such items as foreign currency 
rate movements and related derivative gain or loss, fair value adjustments on privately-held investments and Supplemental 
Employee Retirement Plan (SERP) investments, non-production rent income, bank charges, and other miscellaneous non-
operating income and expense items that are not directly related to operations.  The gain or loss on SERP investments is exactly 
offset by a change in the SERP liability that is recognized in selling and administrative expenses.

 Foreign Currency Translation: Kimball uses the U.S. dollar and Euro predominately as its functional currencies.  Foreign 
currency assets and liabilities are remeasured into functional currencies at end-of-period exchange rates, except for 
nonmonetary assets and equity, which are remeasured at historical exchange rates.  Revenue and expenses are remeasured at the 
weighted average exchange rate during the fiscal year, except for expenses related to nonmonetary assets, which are 
remeasured at historical exchange rates.  Gains and losses from foreign currency remeasurement are reported in the Non-
operating income or expense line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

For businesses whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, the translation of functional currency statements to U.S. 
dollar statements uses end-of-period exchange rates for assets and liabilities, weighted average exchange rates for revenue and 
expenses, and historical rates for equity.  The resulting currency translation adjustment is recorded in Accumulated Other 
Comprehensive Income (Loss), as a component of Share Owners' Equity.

 Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities: Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet as assets 
and liabilities and are measured at fair value.  Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in earnings or 
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), depending on whether a derivative is designated and effective as part of a 
hedge transaction, and if it is, the type of hedge transaction.  Hedge accounting is utilized when a derivative is expected to be 
highly effective upon execution and continues to be highly effective over the duration of the hedge transaction.  Hedge 
accounting permits gains and losses on derivative instruments to be deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income 
(Loss) and subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item, or when the 
derivative is determined to be ineffective.  We use derivatives primarily for forward purchases of foreign currency to manage 
exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to the foreign exchange rate risks inherent in forecasted transactions 
denominated in foreign currency.  Additionally, we have an investment in stock warrants which is accounted for as a derivative 
instrument.  See Note 11 - Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on 
derivative instruments and hedging activities.

 Stock-Based Compensation: As described in Note 7 - Stock Compensation Plans of Notes to Consolidated Financial 
Statements, Kimball maintains a stock-based compensation plan which allows for the issuance of restricted stock, restricted 
share units, unrestricted share grants, incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, performance shares, performance 
units, and stock appreciation rights for grant to officers and other key employees and to members of the Board of Directors who 
are not employees.  We recognize the cost resulting from share-based payment transactions using a fair-value-based method.  
The estimated fair value of outstanding performance shares is based on the stock price at the date of the grant.  For performance 
shares, the price is reduced by the present value of dividends normally paid over the vesting period which are not payable on 

42

outstanding performance share awards.  Stock-based compensation expense is recognized for the portion of the award that is 
ultimately expected to vest.  Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if 
actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

 New Accounting Standards:  In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to eliminate the 
diversity in practice related to the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss 
carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date.  The guidance is effective prospectively 
for our first quarter fiscal year 2015 financial statements.  We are currently evaluating this guidance, but we do not expect it to 
have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued additional guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. This guidance requires 
an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. 
In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, 
significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but 
only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting 
period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is 
required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. 
The amendments will be effective prospectively for our first quarter fiscal year 2014 financial statements. As this guidance only 
impacts how comprehensive income is disclosed, the adoption will not impact our consolidated financial position, results of 
operations, or cash flows.

In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income.  This guidance eliminated the option to 
present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the Statement of Share Owners' Equity.  Instead, we must 
report comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, 
net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements.  While the new guidance changed 
the presentation of comprehensive income, there were no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other 
comprehensive income under current accounting guidance.  The guidance became effective for our first quarter fiscal year 2013 
financial statements on a retrospective basis.  As this guidance only amended the presentation of the components of 
comprehensive income, the adoption did not impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Note 2    Inventories

Inventories are valued using the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost or market value for approximately 16% and 10% of 
consolidated inventories at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, including approximately 87% and 78% of the 
Furniture segment inventories at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively.  The EMS segment inventories and the 
remaining inventories in the Furniture segment are valued using the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market value.

Had the FIFO method been used for all inventories, income would have been $0.2 million higher in fiscal year 2013, $0.4 
million lower in fiscal year 2012, and $0.2 million higher in fiscal year 2011.  Certain inventory quantity reductions caused 
liquidations of LIFO inventory values, which increased income by $1.8 million in fiscal year 2012 and $0.9 million in fiscal 
year 2011.  There were no LIFO inventory liquidations in fiscal year 2013.

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, including asset write-downs associated with restructuring plans, 
totaled, in millions, $28.8 for fiscal year 2013, $28.9 for fiscal year 2012, and $29.0 for fiscal year 2011.

During fiscal year 2012, the Furniture segment recognized impairment of $78, in thousands, related to equipment for a product 
line with volumes much lower than originally forecasted, which was included in the Cost of Sales line of the Consolidated 
Statements of Income.

At June 30, 2013, in thousands, assets totaling $1,521 were classified as held for sale, and consisted of $400 for a facility and 
land related to the Gaylord, Michigan exited operation within the EMS segment and $1,121 for an idle Furniture segment 
manufacturing facility and land located in Jasper, Indiana. The Gaylord, Michigan facility and land were reported as 
unallocated corporate assets for segment reporting purposes. The idle Jasper, Indiana manufacturing facility and land were 
reported as Furniture segment assets for segment reporting purposes.  Related to the Gaylord, Michigan facility, we recognized 
in Unallocated Corporate pre-tax impairment losses, in thousands, of $188 and $572 during fiscal years 2013 and 2012, 
respectively, which were included in the Restructuring Expense line of the Consolidated Statements of Income.  

At June 30, 2012, Kimball had, in thousands, assets totaling $1,709 classified as held for sale.  During fiscal year 2012, we sold 
a tract of land in Poland which was previously classified as held for sale. The sale had an immaterial effect on the consolidated 
financial statements. 

Note 4    Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Leases:

Operating leases for certain office, showroom, manufacturing facilities, land, and equipment, which expire from fiscal year 
2014 to 2056, contain provisions under which minimum annual lease payments are, in millions, $3.2, $2.4, $1.6, $1.1, and $0.7 
for the five years ending June 30, 2018, respectively, and aggregate $3.3 million from fiscal year 2019 to the expiration of the 
leases in fiscal year 2056.  We are obligated under certain real estate leases to maintain the properties and pay real estate taxes.  
Certain leases include renewal options and escalation clauses.  Total rental expenses amounted to, in millions, $4.7, $4.8, and 
$6.2 in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, including certain leases requiring contingent lease payments based on 
warehouse space utilized, which amounted to expense of, in millions, $0.9, $0.4, and $0.5 in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, 
respectively.

As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, capital leases were not material.

Guarantees:

As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had no guarantees issued which were contingent on the future performance of another entity.  
Standby letters of credit are issued to third-party suppliers, lessors, and insurance and financial institutions and can only be 
drawn upon in the event of Kimball's failure to pay its obligations to the beneficiary.  We had a maximum financial exposure 

44

 
from unused standby letters of credit totaling $1.2 million as of June 30, 2013 and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2012.  We are not 
aware of circumstances that would require us to perform under any of these arrangements and believe that the resolution of any 
claims that might arise in the future, either individually or in the aggregate, would not materially affect our consolidated 
financial statements.  Accordingly, no liability has been recorded as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 with respect to the standby 
letters of credit.  Kimball also enters into commercial letters of credit to facilitate payments to vendors and from customers.

Product Warranties:

We estimate product warranty liability at the time of sale based on historical repair or replacement cost trends in conjunction 
with the length of the warranty offered.  Management refines the warranty liability in cases where specific warranty issues 
become known.

Changes in the product warranty accrual during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 were as follows:

Note 5    Long-Term Debt and Credit Facilities

Long-term debt, less current maturities as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, was, in thousands, $294 and $273, respectively, and 
current maturities of long-term debt were, in thousands, $23 and $14, respectively.  Long-term debt consists of a long-term note 
payable and capitalized leases. Interest rates range from 2.50% to 9.25% and maturities occur in fiscal years 2018 and 2025.  
Aggregate maturities of long-term debt for the next five years are, in thousands, $23, $26, $27, $30, and $27, respectively, and 
aggregate $184 thereafter.

(1)   Kimball's primary revolving credit facility, which expires in December 2017, provides for up to $75 million in borrowings, 
with an option to increase the amount available for borrowing to $115 million upon request, subject to participating banks' 
consent.  We use this facility for acquisitions and general corporate purposes.  A commitment fee is payable on the unused 
portion of the credit facility which was immaterial to our operating results for fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011.  The 
commitment fee on the unused portion of principal amount of the credit facility is payable at a rate that ranges from 20.0 to 
25.0 basis points per annum as determined by our leverage ratio.  Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at a 
floating rate based, at Kimball's option, upon a London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable percentage or 
the greater of the federal funds rate plus an applicable percentage and the prime rate.  The credit facility requires that we 
comply with certain debt covenants including consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (debt to EBITDA) and 
minimum net worth (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income).  We were in compliance with these covenants 
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.  Kimball had $3.9 million in letters of credit contingently committed against 
the credit facility at June 30, 2013 including the $2.7 million letter of credit supporting the Thailand revolving credit 
facility.  

(2)  Kimball also maintains a $2.7 million foreign credit facility for its EMS segment operation in Thailand which is backed by 

the $75 million revolving credit facility via a letter of credit.  This foreign credit facility is reviewed for renewal annually 
and can be canceled at any time by either the bank or Kimball.  Interest on borrowing in US dollars under the facility is 
charged at 0.75% per annum over the Singapore Interbank Money Market Offered Rate (SIBOR).  The interest rate on 
borrowings in Thai Baht under the facility is charged at the prevailing market rate.

45

(3)   The credit facility for the EMS segment operation in Poland allows for multi-currency borrowings up to a 6 million Euro 
equivalent (approximately $7.8 million U.S. dollars at June 30, 2013 exchange rates) and is available to cover bank 
overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts may be deemed necessary to satisfy short-term cash needs at our Poland location rather than 
funding from intercompany sources.  This credit facility is reviewed for renewal annually and can be canceled at any time 
by either the bank or Kimball.  Interest on the overdraft is charged at 1.75% over the Euro Overnight Index Average 
(EONIA).

Cash payments for interest on borrowings were, in thousands, $36, $37, and $121, in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, 
respectively.  Capitalized interest expense was immaterial during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011.

Note 6    Employee Benefit Plans

Retirement Plans:

Kimball has a trusteed defined contribution retirement plan in effect for substantially all domestic employees meeting the 
eligibility requirements.  Company contributions to the trusteed plan have a five-year vesting schedule and are held for the sole 
benefit of participants.  Kimball also maintains a supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) for executive employees 
which enable them to defer cash compensation on a pre-tax basis in excess of IRS limitations.  The SERP is structured as a 
rabbi trust, and therefore assets in the SERP portfolio are subject to creditor claims in the event of bankruptcy.

The discretionary Company contribution for domestic employees is determined annually by the Compensation and Governance 
Committee of the Board of Directors.  Total expense related to employer contributions to the domestic retirement plans was, in 
millions, $5.1, $5.3, and $5.0 for fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

Employees of certain foreign subsidiaries are covered by local pension or retirement plans.  Total expense related to employer 
contributions to these foreign plans for fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 was, in millions, $0.2, $0.3, and $0.5, respectively.

Severance Plans:

Kimball maintains severance plans for all domestic employees which provide severance benefits to eligible employees meeting 
the plans' qualifications, primarily involuntary termination without cause.  There are no statutory requirements for Kimball to 
contribute to the plans, nor do employees contribute to the plans.  The plans hold no assets.  Benefits are paid using available 
cash on hand when eligible employees meet plan qualifications for payment.  Benefits are based upon an employee's years of 
service and accumulate up to certain limits specified in the plans and include both salary and an allowance for medical benefits.  
The components and changes in the Benefit Obligation, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), and Net Periodic 
Benefit Cost are as follows:

The benefit cost in the above table includes only normal recurring levels of severance activity, as estimated using an actuarial 
method.  Unusual or non-recurring severance actions, such as those disclosed in Note 17 - Restructuring Expense of Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements, are not estimable using actuarial methods and are expensed in accordance with the 
applicable U.S. GAAP.

We amortize prior service costs on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of employees that were active 
at the time of the plan initiation and amortize actuarial (gain) loss on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service 
period of employees expected to receive benefits under the plan.

The estimated prior service cost and actuarial net (gain) loss for the severance plans that will be amortized from accumulated 
other comprehensive income (loss) into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are, pre-tax in thousands, $286 and 
$522, respectively.

Note 7    Stock Compensation Plans

On August 19, 2003, the Board of Directors adopted the 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "2003 Plan"), which was 
approved by Kimball's Share Owners on October 21, 2008.  Under the 2003 Plan, 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock were 
reserved for restricted stock, restricted share units, unrestricted share grants, incentive stock options, nonqualified stock 
options, performance shares, performance units, and stock appreciation rights for grant to officers and other key employees and 
to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees.  The 2003 Plan is a ten-year plan.  Kimball also had stock 
options outstanding under a former stock incentive plan, which is described below.  The pre-tax compensation cost that was 

47

 
 
 
charged against income for all of the plans was $5.0 million, $1.4 million, and $1.3 million in fiscal year 2013, 2012, and 2011, 
respectively.  The total income tax benefit for stock compensation arrangements was $2.0 million, $0.6 million, and $0.5 
million in fiscal year 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.  We generally use treasury shares for fulfillment of option exercises 
and issuance of performance shares.

Performance Shares:

Kimball awards performance shares to officers and other key employees under the 2003 Plan.  Under these awards, a number of 
shares will be issued to each participant based upon the attainment of the applicable bonus percentage calculated under 
Kimball's profit sharing incentive bonus plan as applied to a total potential share award made and approved by the 
Compensation and Governance Committee.  Performance shares are vested when issued shortly after the end of the fiscal year 
in which the performance measurement period is complete and are issued as Class A common shares.  Certain outstanding 
performance shares are applicable to performance measurement periods in future fiscal years and will be measured at fair value 
when the performance targets are established in future fiscal years.  The contractual life of performance shares ranges from one 
year to five years.  If a participant is not employed by Kimball on the date shares are issued, the performance share award is 
forfeited, except in the case of death, retirement at age 62 or older, total permanent disability, or certain other circumstances 
described in Kimball's employment policy.  To the extent performance conditions are not fully attained, performance shares are 
forfeited.

A summary of performance share activity under the 2003 Plan during fiscal year 2013 is presented below:

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $9.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to performance shares, 
based on the latest estimated attainment of performance goals.  That cost is expected to be recognized over annual performance 
periods ending August 2013 through August 2017, with a weighted average vesting period of one year, five months.  The fair 
value of performance shares is based on the stock price at the date of grant, reduced by the present value of dividends normally 
paid over the vesting period which are not payable on outstanding performance share awards.  The weighted average grant date 
fair value was $10.91; $5.46; and $5.10 for performance share awards granted in fiscal year 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.  
During fiscal year 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, 254,393; 187,915; and 141,049 performance shares vested at a fair value 
of $1.4 million, $1.0 million, and $0.9 million.  These shares are the total number of shares vested, prior to the reduction of 
shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations.  The number of shares presented in the above table, the amounts of 
unrecognized compensation, and the weighted average period include performance shares awarded that are applicable to future 
performance measurement periods and will be measured at fair value when the performance targets are established in future 
fiscal years.

Unrestricted Share Grants:

Under the 2003 Plan, unrestricted shares may be granted to employees and members of the Board of Directors as consideration 
for service to Kimball.  Unrestricted share grants do not have vesting periods, holding periods, restrictions on sale, or other 
restrictions.  The fair value of unrestricted shares is based on the stock price at the date of the award.  During fiscal year 2013, 
2012, and 2011, respectively, Kimball granted a total of 2,843; 22,187; and 46,977 unrestricted shares of Class B common 
stock at an average grant date fair value of $11.78, $5.95, and $6.71, for a total fair value, in thousands, of $33, $132 and $315.  
These shares are the total number of shares granted, prior to the reduction of shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding 
obligations.  Unrestricted shares were awarded to officers and other key employees, and to non-employee members of the 
Board of Directors as compensation for director's fees, as a result of directors' elections to receive unrestricted shares in lieu of 
cash payment.  Director's fees are expensed over the period that directors earn the compensation.

48

 
Stock Options:

During fiscal year 2013, all outstanding stock options which had been granted under a former stock incentive plan expired.  The 
1996 Stock Incentive Program, which was approved by Kimball's Share Owners on October 22, 1996, allowed the issuance of 
incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, and performance share awards to officers and 
other key employees and to members of the Board of Directors who were not employees.  No shares remain available for new 
grants under the 1996 Stock Incentive Program. There were no stock option grants awarded during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 
2011.  

For the previously outstanding awards, the fair value at the date of the grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option 
pricing model.  Options outstanding were exercisable five years after the date of grant and expired ten years after the date of 
grant.  Stock options were forfeited when employment terminated, except in the case of retirement at age 62 or older, death, 
permanent disability, or certain other circumstances described in Kimball's employment policy.

Note 8    Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities 
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.  Income tax benefits associated with net 
operating losses of, in thousands, $4,114 expire from fiscal year 2013 to 2033.  Income tax benefits associated with tax credit 
carryforwards of, in thousands, $1,768, expire from fiscal year 2013 to 2026.  A valuation allowance was provided as of 
June 30, 2013 for deferred tax assets relating to certain foreign and state net operating losses of, in thousands, $2,160, and, in 
thousands, $155 related to other deferred tax assets that we currently believe are more likely than not to remain unrealized in 
the future.

Foreign unremitted earnings of entities not included in the United States tax return have been included in the consolidated 
financial statements without giving effect to the United States taxes that may be payable on distribution to the United States 
because it is not anticipated such earnings will be remitted to the United States.  The aggregate unremitted earnings of 
Kimball's foreign subsidiaries for which a deferred income tax liability has not been recorded was approximately $103.7 
million as of June 30, 2013.  Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability on unremitted earnings is not

Kimball, or one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, files U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various state, 
local, and foreign jurisdictions.  We are no longer subject to any significant U.S. federal tax examinations by tax authorities for 
years before fiscal year 2008.  We are subject to various state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years 
after June 30, 2006 and various foreign jurisdictions for years after June 30, 2004.  We do not expect the change in the amount 
of unrecognized tax benefits in the next 12 months to have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial 
position.

Note 9    Common Stock

On a fiscal year basis, shares of Class B Common Stock are entitled to an additional $0.02 per share dividend more than the 
dividends paid on Class A Common Stock, provided that dividends are paid on Kimball's Class A Common Stock.  The owners 
of both Class A and Class B Common Stock are entitled to share pro-rata, irrespective of class, in the distribution of Kimball's 
available assets upon dissolution.

Owners of Class B Common Stock are entitled to elect, as a class, one member of Kimball's Board of Directors.  In addition, 
owners of Class B Common Stock are entitled to full voting powers, as a class, with respect to any consolidation, merger, sale, 
lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's fixed assets, or dissolution of 
the Company.  Otherwise, except as provided by statute with respect to certain amendments to the Articles of Incorporation, the 
owners of Class B Common Stock have no voting rights, and the entire voting power is vested in the Class A Common Stock, 
which has one vote per share. The owner of a share of Class A Common Stock may, at their option, convert such share into one 
share of Class B Common Stock at any time.

If dividends are not paid on shares of Kimball's Class B Common Stock for a period of thirty-six consecutive months, or if at 
any time the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding is less than 15% of the total number of issued 
and outstanding shares of both Class A and Class B Common Stock, then all shares of Class B Common Stock shall 
automatically have the same rights and privileges as the Class A Common Stock, with full and equal voting rights and with 
equal rights to receive dividends as and if declared by the Board of Directors.

Note 10    Fair Value

Kimball categorizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to 
price the assets or liabilities.  Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas level 3 generally requires 
significant management judgment.  The three levels are defined as follows:

•  Level 1:  Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•  Level 2:  Observable inputs other than those included in level 1.  For example, quoted prices for similar assets or 

liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

•  Level 3:  Unobservable inputs reflecting management's own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or 

liability. 

Our policy is to recognize transfers between these levels as of the end of each quarterly reporting period.  There were no 
transfers between these levels during fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

Market - Based on observable market inputs using standard
calculations, such as time value, forward interest rate yield curves,
and current spot rates, considering counterparty credit risk

Market - Based on a probability-weighted Black-Scholes option 
pricing model with the following inputs (level 3 input values 
indicated in parenthesis): risk-free interest rate (0.09%), historical 
stock price volatility (93.2%) and weighted average expected term 
(6 months).  Enterprise value was estimated using a discounted cash 
flow calculation.

Stock warrants are revalued and analyzed for reasonableness on a 
quarterly basis.  The level 3 inputs used are the standard inputs used 
in the Black-Scholes model.  Input values are based on publicly 
available information (Federal Reserve interest rates) and 
internally-developed information (historical stock price volatility of 
comparable investments) and remaining expected term of warrants.

Significant increases (decreases) in the historical stock price 
volatility, expected life, and enterprise value in isolation would 
result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. The 
inputs do not have any interrelationships.

During fiscal year 2010, we purchased the convertible debt securities of a privately-held company with the principal and 
interest due in June 2011.  We also received stock warrants to purchase the common and preferred stock of the privately-held 
company at a specified exercise price.  During fiscal year 2011, the convertible debt securities experienced an other-than-
temporary decline in fair value resulting in a $1.2 million impairment loss and, upon a qualified financing, were subsequently 
converted to non-marketable equity securities.  Also during fiscal year 2011, the revaluation of stock warrants resulted in a $1.0 
million derivative gain as a result of the qualified financing.  The investment in non-marketable equity securities is accounted 
for as a cost-method investment and is included in the Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value section that follows.  
During fiscal year 2012, the privately-held company experienced delays in their start-up, and therefore initiated another round 
of financing that we chose not to participate in, which resulted in the automatic conversion of preferred shares and warrants to 
common shares and warrants.  Upon the conversion, the equity securities and warrants were revalued, resulting in an 
impairment loss of $0.7 million on the equity securities and a $0.5 million derivative loss on the stock warrants during fiscal 
year 2012.  During fiscal year 2013, due to certain events and changes in circumstances that had an adverse effect on the fair 
value of the investment in the privately-held company, we revalued the investment which resulted in a $1.0 million impairment 
loss on the equity securities and a $0.9 million derivative loss on the stock warrants.

See Note 11 - Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the stock 
warrants.   See Note 12 - Investments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the 
convertible debt securities and non-marketable equity securities.  

No purchases or sales of Level 3 assets occurred during the period. 

The nonqualified supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) assets consist primarily of equity funds, balanced funds, a 
bond fund, and a money market fund.  The SERP investment assets are exactly offset by a SERP liability which represents 
Kimball's obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants.  See Note 12 - Investments of Notes to Consolidated Financial 
Statements for further information regarding the SERP.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements:

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing 
basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments when events or circumstances indicate a significant adverse effect on the fair 
value of the asset.  Assets that are written down to fair value when impaired are not subsequently adjusted to fair value unless 
further impairment occurs.

Valuation Technique/Inputs Used
Market - Estimated potential net selling price.

Impairment of long-lived assets (intangible

Market - Probability-weighted discounted cash flow calculation
using estimated future cash flows.

Due to declines in the market value of the held for sale EMS facility, we recognized pre-tax impairment losses of, in millions, 
$0.2 and $0.6 during fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Also during fiscal year 2012, we recognized impairment of, in 
millions, $0.3 and $0.1 related to intangible product rights and equipment, respectively, for a product line which was near the 
end of its production period.

Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value:

Financial instruments that are not reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value that have carrying amounts which 
approximate fair value include the following:

Financial Instrument
Notes receivable

Non-marketable equity securities (cost-
method investments, which carry shares at
cost except in the event of impairment)

Level
2

3

Valuation Technique/Inputs Used
Market - Price approximated based on the assumed collection of
receivables in the normal course of business, taking into account the
customer's non-performance risk

Cost Method, with Impairment Recognized Using a Market-Based 
Valuation Technique - See the explanation below the table 
regarding the method used to periodically estimate the fair value of 
cost-method investments.

For the impairment recognized during fiscal year 2013, the 
valuation was based on a probability-weighted Black-Scholes 
option pricing model with the following inputs (level 3 input values 
indicated in parenthesis): risk-free interest rate (0.09%), historical 
stock price volatility (93.2%) and weighted average expected term 
(6 months).  Enterprise value was estimated using a discounted cash 
flow calculation.

The level 3 inputs used are the standard inputs used in the Black-
Scholes model.  Input values are based on publicly available 
information (Federal Reserve interest rates) and internally-
developed information (historical stock price volatility of 
comparable investments) and remaining expected holding period of 
securities.

Significant increases (decreases) in the historical stock price 
volatility, expected life, and enterprise value in isolation would 
result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. The 
inputs do not have any interrelationships.

Income - Price estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis 
based on quoted long-term debt market rates, taking into account 
Kimball's non-performance risk

Long-term debt (carried at amortized cost)

Investments in non-marketable equity securities are accounted for using the cost method if Kimball does not have the ability to 
exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee.  On a periodic basis, but no less 
frequently than quarterly, these investments are assessed for impairment when there are events or changes in circumstances that 
may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment.  If a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the 
investment has occurred and is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the fair value of the investment is estimated, and the 
amount by which the carrying value of the cost-method investment exceeds its fair value is recorded as an impairment loss.

The carrying value of our short-term financial instruments, including cash deposit accounts, trade accounts receivable, prepaid 
and deposit accounts, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and dividends payable, approximate fair value due to the 
relatively short maturity and immaterial non-performance risk of such instruments.  These financial instruments are categorized 
as Level 2 financial instruments.

Note 11    Derivative Instruments

Foreign Exchange Contracts:

We operate internationally and are therefore exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of our 
business.  Our primary means of managing this exposure is to utilize natural hedges, such as aligning currencies used in the 
supply chain with the sale currency.  To the extent natural hedging techniques do not fully offset currency risk, we use 
derivative instruments with the objective of reducing the residual exposure to certain foreign currency rate movements.  Factors 
considered in the decision to hedge an underlying market exposure include the materiality of the risk, the volatility of the 
market, the duration of the hedge, the degree to which the underlying exposure is committed to, and the availability, 
effectiveness, and cost of derivative instruments.  Derivative instruments are only utilized for risk management purposes and 
are not used for speculative or trading purposes.

We use forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in 
forecasted transactions denominated in a foreign currency.  Foreign exchange contracts are also used to hedge against foreign 

55

  
currency exchange rate risks related to intercompany balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies.  
As of June 30, 2013, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts to hedge currencies against the U.S. dollar in the aggregate 
notional amount of $26.2 million and to hedge currencies against the Euro in the aggregate notional amount of 43.1 million 
EUR.  The notional amounts are indicators of the volume of derivative activities but are not indicators of the potential gain or 
loss on the derivatives.

In limited cases due to unexpected changes in forecasted transactions, cash flow hedges may cease to meet the criteria to be 
designated as cash flow hedges.  Depending on the type of exposure hedged, we may either purchase a derivative contract in 
the opposite position of the undesignated hedge or may retain the hedge until it matures if the hedge continues to provide an 
adequate offset in earnings against the currency revaluation impact of foreign currency denominated liabilities.

The fair value of outstanding derivative instruments is recognized on the balance sheet as a derivative asset or liability.  When 
derivatives are settled with the counterparty, the derivative asset or liability is relieved and cash flow is impacted for the net 
settlement.  For derivative instruments that meet the criteria of hedging instruments under FASB guidance, the effective 
portions of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument are initially recorded net of related tax effect in Accumulated Other 
Comprehensive Income (Loss), a component of Share Owners' Equity, and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the 
period or periods during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings.  The ineffective portion of the derivative gain 
or loss is reported in the Non-operating income or expense line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income immediately.  
The gain or loss associated with derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments or that cease to meet the 
criteria for hedging under FASB guidance is also reported in the Non-operating income or expense line item on the 
Consolidated Statements of Income immediately.

Based on fair values as of June 30, 2013, we estimate that approximately $1.1 million of pre-tax derivative losses deferred in 
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) will be reclassified into earnings, along with the earnings effects of related 
forecasted transactions, within the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014.  Losses on foreign exchange contracts are generally offset 
by gains in operating costs in the income statement when the underlying hedged transaction is recognized in earnings.  Because 
gains or losses on foreign exchange contracts fluctuate partially based on currency spot rates, the future effect on earnings of 
the cash flow hedges alone is not determinable, but in conjunction with the underlying hedged transactions, the result is 
expected to be a decline in currency risk.  The maximum length of time we had hedged our exposure to the variability in future 
cash flows was 12 months as of both June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012.

Stock Warrants:

In conjunction with our investments in convertible debt securities of a privately-held company during fiscal year 2010, we 
received common and preferred stock warrants which provide the right to purchase the privately-held company's equity 
securities at a specified exercise price.  

As part of a June 2011 qualified financing related to the convertible debt securities, stock warrants were revalued which 
resulted in a $1.0 million derivative gain during fiscal year 2011, which was recognized in the Non-operating income line item 
on the Consolidated Statements of Income.  The warrants were revalued due to changes in the exercise price and number of 
warrants and a valuation of the underlying business.  During fiscal year 2012, the privately-held company experienced delays 
in their start-up, and therefore initiated another round of financing that we chose not to participate in, which resulted in the 
automatic conversion of the preferred warrants to common warrants.  Upon the conversion, the stock warrants were revalued 
resulting in a $0.5 million derivative loss on stock warrants during fiscal year 2012.  During fiscal year 2013, due to certain 
events and changes in circumstances that had an adverse effect on the fair value of the investment in the privately-held 
company, we revalued the investment which resulted in a $0.9 million derivative loss on the stock warrants.
The value of the stock warrants fluctuates primarily in relation to the value of the privately-held company's underlying 
securities, either providing an appreciation in value or potentially expiring with no value.  The stock warrants expire in June 
2017.

See Note 10 - Fair Value of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the fair value of 
derivative assets and liabilities and Note 16 - Comprehensive Income of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the 
amount and changes in derivative gains and losses deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Note 12    Investments

Convertible Debt and Non-marketable Equity Securities:

During fiscal year 2010, we purchased the convertible debt securities of a privately-held company with the principal and 
interest due in June 2011.  We also received stock warrants to purchase the common and preferred stock of the privately-held 
company at a specified exercise price, which are discussed in Note 11 - Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated 
Financial Statements.

57

 
 
 
During fiscal year 2011, the convertible debt securities experienced an other-than-temporary decline in fair market value 
resulting in a $1.2 million impairment loss and, upon a qualified financing, were subsequently converted to preferred shares.  
The conversion of the convertible notes to preferred shares had no earnings impact.  During fiscal year 2012, the privately-held 
company experienced delays in their start-up, and therefore initiated another round of financing that we chose not to participate 
in, which resulted in the automatic conversion of preferred shares to common shares.  Upon the conversion, the equity 
securities were revalued which resulted in an impairment loss of $0.7 million during fiscal year 2012.  During fiscal year 2013, 
due to certain events and changes in circumstances that had an adverse effect on the fair value of the investment in the 
privately-held company, we revalued the investment which resulted in a $1.0 million impairment loss on the equity securities.  
The common shares had a carrying value of $0.1 million and $1.1 million at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The equity securities are non-marketable and are accounted for as a cost-method investment, which carries the shares at cost 
except in the event of impairment.  The privately-held investment is included in the Other Assets line of the Consolidated 
Balance Sheets.  See Note 10 - Fair Value of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the valuation 
of these securities.  The investment does not rise to the level of a material variable interest or a controlling interest in the 
privately-held company which would require consolidation.

Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan Investments:

Kimball maintains a self-directed supplemental employee retirement plan (SERP) for executive employees.  The SERP utilizes 
a rabbi trust, and therefore assets in the SERP portfolio are subject to creditor claims in the event of bankruptcy.  Kimball 
recognizes SERP investment assets on the balance sheet at current fair value.  A SERP liability of the same amount is recorded 
on the balance sheet representing an obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants.  The SERP investment assets are 
classified as trading, and accordingly, realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in income in the Other Income 
(Expense) category.  Adjustments made to revalue the SERP liability are also recognized in income as selling and 
administrative expenses and exactly offset valuation adjustments on SERP investment assets.  The change in net unrealized 
holding gains (losses) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013, 2012, and 2011 was, in thousands, $1,243, $(483), and $2,611, 
respectively. SERP asset and liability balances were as follows:

Note 14    Segment and Geographic Area Information

Management organizes Kimball into segments based upon differences in products and services offered in each segment.  The 
segments and their principal products and services are as follows.  The EMS segment provides engineering and manufacturing 
services which utilize common production and support capabilities to a variety of industries globally.  The EMS segment 
focuses on electronic assemblies that have high durability requirements and are sold on a contract basis and produced to 

58

 
 
customers' specifications.  The EMS segment currently sells primarily to customers in the automotive, medical, industrial, and 
public safety industries.  The Furniture segment provides furniture for the office and hospitality industries, sold under the 
Company's family of brand names.  Each segment's product line offerings consist of similar products and services sold within 
various industries.

The EMS segment sold to major customers that represented more than 10% of consolidated net sales.  Sales to Johnson 
Controls, Inc. totaled, in millions, $122.1, $104.6, and $84.5 in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, representing 
10%, 9%, and 7% of consolidated net sales, respectively, for such periods.  Sales to Bayer AG affiliates totaled, in millions, 
$4.1, $5.0, and $135.7 in fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, representing 0%, 0%, and 11% of consolidated net 
sales, respectively, for such periods.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting 
Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements with additional explanation of segment allocations as follows.  
Corporate assets and operating costs are allocated to the segments based on the extent to which each segment uses a centralized 
function, where practicable.  However, certain common costs have been allocated among segments less precisely than would be 
required for standalone financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the 
United States of America.  Unallocated corporate assets include cash and cash equivalents, investments, and other assets not 
allocated to segments.  Unallocated corporate income consists of income not allocated to segments for purposes of evaluating 
segment performance and includes income from corporate investments and other non-operational items.  Sales between the 
Furniture segment and EMS segment are not material.

We evaluate segment performance based upon several financial measures, including economic profit, which incorporates a 
segment's cost of capital when evaluating financial performance, operating income, and net income.  Operating income and net 
income are reported for each segment as they are the measures most consistent with the measurement principles used in our 
consolidated financial statements.

We aggregate multiple operating segments into each reportable segment.  The aggregated operating segments have similar 
economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria required by U.S. GAAP.

The decrease in net sales having a destination of Poland in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011 was attributable 
to the expiration of a contract with one medical customer (Bayer AG).

Note 15    Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are computed using the two-class common stock method due to the dividend preference of Class B Common Stock.   
Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per 
share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the assumed issuance of common shares and related 
payment of assumed dividends for all potentially dilutive securities.  Earnings per share of Class A and Class B Common Stock are as 
follows:

Note 16    Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by, and 
distributions to, Share Owners.  Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), which 
includes foreign currency translation adjustments, the net change in derivative gains and losses, postemployment severance 
prior service cost, and the net actuarial change in postemployment severance.

The changes in the balances of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, were as follows:

Note 17    Restructuring Expense

We recognized consolidated pre-tax restructuring expense of $0.4 million, $3.4 million, and $1.0 million in fiscal years 2013, 
2012, and 2011, respectively.  All restructuring plans were completed prior to fiscal year 2013 but continued to incur 
miscellaneous exit costs related to the facility clean up or market value adjustments.  Completed restructuring plans include the 
European Consolidation, Fremont, and Gaylord plans which were all related to the EMS segment.  We do not expect these 
plans to have a significant amount of restructuring charges in the future. 

The Gaylord restructuring plan, initiated in fiscal year 2007, is included in the summary tables on the following page under the 
Other Restructuring Plan caption.  Due to declines in the market value of the Gaylord facility, we recognized pre-tax 
impairment losses, in thousands, of $188 and $572 during fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively. 

We utilize available market prices and management estimates to determine the fair value of impaired fixed assets.  
Restructuring charges are included in the Restructuring Expense line item on the Company's Consolidated Statements of 
Income.

Fremont Restructuring Plan:

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we completed a plan to exit a small leased EMS assembly facility located in 
Fremont, California.  This plan was approved in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011.  We are contractually obligated on the 
lease of this facility until August 2013.  We expect total pre-tax restructuring charges to be approximately $1.3 million, 
including $0.2 million related to severance and other employee transition costs, and $1.1 million related to lease and other exit 
costs.

European Consolidation Plan:

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, we completed a plan to expand our European automotive electronics capabilities 
and to establish a European Medical Center of Expertise near Poznan, Poland.  This plan was approved in the fourth quarter of 
fiscal year 2008.  The plan was executed in stages as follows:

•  We successfully completed the move of production from Longford, Ireland, into a former Poznan, Poland facility 

during the fiscal year 2009 second quarter.

•  Construction of a new, larger facility in Poland was completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009. 
•  We sold the former Poland facility and land during fiscal year 2010 and recorded a $6.7 million pre-tax gain which 

was included in the Other General Income line of our Consolidated Statements of Income. 

•  The former Poland facility was leased back until the transfer of the remaining production to the new facility was 

completed in fiscal year 2011.

•  We completed the consolidation of the EMS facility located in Wales, United Kingdom into the new facility.  

Production in Wales ceased and was transferred to the Poland facility in the second quarter of fiscal year 2012.  The 
lease for the Wales facility terminated in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. 

Total pre-tax restructuring charges, excluding the gain on the sale of the former facility and construction of the new facility, 
related to the consolidation activities were approximately, in millions, $23.0 consisting of $20.8 of severance and other 
employee costs, $0.4 of property and equipment asset impairment, $0.4 of lease exit costs, and $1.4 of other exit costs.

(1)  The Other Restructuring Plan with charges during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 is the Unallocated Corporate Gaylord 

restructuring plan initiated in fiscal year 2007.

(2)  Accrued restructuring was recorded in current liabilities.

(3)  The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates within the EMS segment due to revaluation of the restructuring 

liability is included in this amount.

Note 18    Variable Interest Entities

Kimball's involvement with variable interest entities (VIEs) is limited to situations in which we are not the primary beneficiary 
as we lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance.  Thus, 
consolidation is not required.

We are involved with VIEs consisting of an investment in common stock and stock warrants of a privately-held company, a 
note receivable related to the sale of an Indiana facility, and notes receivable resulting from loans provided to an electronics 
engineering services firm.  Kimball also has a business development cooperation agreement with the electronic engineering 
services firm.  For information related to our investment in the privately-held company, see Note 12 - Investments and Note 11 
- Derivative Instruments of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  As of June 30, 2013, the combined carrying value of 
the notes receivable, net of a $0.4 million allowance, was $1.5 million, and was included on the Receivables line of our 
Consolidated Balance Sheet as the entire balance is classified as short-term.  As of June 30, 2012, the combined carrying value 
of the notes receivable was $2.6 million, with no reserve, with the short-term portion recorded on the Receivables line and the 
long-term portion recorded on the Other Assets line of our Consolidated Balance Sheet.  

We have no obligation to provide additional funding to the VIEs, and thus our exposure and risk of loss related to the VIEs is 
limited to the carrying value of the investments and notes receivable.  Kimball did not provide additional financial support to 
the VIEs during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.  

Note 19    Credit Quality and Allowance for Credit Losses of Notes Receivable

Kimball monitors credit quality and associated risks of notes receivable on an individual basis based on criteria such as 
financial stability of the party and collection experience in conjunction with general economic and market conditions.  As of 
June 30, 2013 an allowance was recorded on the notes receivable from an electronics engineering services firm as we 
determined based on our credit quality analysis that the collectability of the amount in full was not probable.  We hold collateral 
for the note receivable from the sale of an Indiana facility thereby mitigating the risk of loss.  As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, 
Kimball had no material past due outstanding notes receivable.

Note 20    Subsequent Events

Kimball was a party to two class action lawsuits from which we received pre-tax distributions of $5.0 million subsequent to 
June 30, 2013.  The lawsuits alleged that certain suppliers of the EMS segment conspired over a number of years to raise and 
fix the prices of electronic components, resulting in overcharges to purchasers of those components.
