Plan Administrator

The Manitowoc Company, Inc.

  401(k) Retirement Plan

Manitowoc, Wisconsin

 

We have audited the financial statements of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan as of December 31, 2004, and for the year then ended and the supplemental schedule as of December 31, 2004, as listed in the accompanying table of contents.  These financial statements and supplement schedule are the responsibility of the Plan’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing 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.  The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan as of December 31, 2004, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Note 1

Plan Description

 

 

 

The following description of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan Agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.

 

 

 

General

 

 

 

The Plan is a defined contribution profit sharing plan covering substantially all salaried and nonunion hourly employees of participating companies of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (the “Company”) who are scheduled to complete 1,000 hours of service within a 12-month period. Participating companies include the Company and all subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company, as defined in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

 

 

 

Merger

 

 

 

Effective January 1, 2003, the Grove U.S. LLC Retirement Savings and Investment Plan was merged into the Plan. In conjunction with the merger, assets of $40,602,996 were transferred into the Plan.

 

 

 

Contributions

 

 

 

Participants may elect to contribute up to 100% of eligible compensation up to a maximum contribution allowable under the Internal Revenue Code. Participant contributions are not required. The Company makes matching contributions equal to 100% of the employee’s contribution (up to 3% of their compensation) plus 50% of the employee’s contributions (up to the next 3% of their compensation). Profit sharing contributions to the Plan are made by the Company based upon a predetermined formula defined in the plan document. The contribution is based upon Company profitability and is allocated to eligible participants based upon a formula that considers fixed and variable contributions. The variable portion is based on the proportion of a participant’s compensation for all participants. Annual contributions to a participant’s account are limited to the lesser of $41,000 or 100% of the participant’s compensation for the year.

 

5



 

 

Participants’ Accounts

 

 

 

All investments in participants’ accounts are participant-directed. The Plan allows participants to select from a variety of mutual funds including a money market fund, equity funds, and fixed income funds. The Plan also allows participants to purchase The Manitowoc Company, Inc. common stock.

 

 

 

Each participant’s account is credited with the participants contributions, Company contributions, and an allocation of plan earnings and is reduced for withdrawals. Plan earnings are determined and credited to each participant’s account on a daily basis in accordance with the proportion of the participant’s account to all accounts. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.

 

 

 

Plan Benefits

 

 

 

Plan benefits are available at normal retirement (age 65), disability retirement, death, and termination of employment with vested interests. Benefits are payable in one lump sum, equal installments over a period of years, or an insurance company single premium nontransferable annuity contract.

 

 

 

Vesting

 

 

 

All employee contributions and employer matching contributions and related earnings are 100% vested immediately. Participants vest in the Company’s profit sharing contributions at the rate of 20% per year, with the participant becoming fully vested after five years of service. Participants who leave the Company because of normal retirement, disability, or death are considered to be 100% vested.

 

6



 

 

Participant Loans

 

 

 

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their account balance, excluding the portion of the account balance relating to the Company’s profit sharing or match contributions. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at prime plus 1%. Loans are repaid through payroll deductions over a period not to exceed five years.

 

 

 

Expenses of the Plan

 

 

 

Administrative expenses of the Plan are paid from the assets of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. Employees’ Profit Sharing Trust (the “Master Trust”).

 

 

 

Forfeitures

 

 

 

Plan forfeitures arise as a result of participants who terminate service with the Company before becoming 100% vested in the Company’s contribution. These forfeitures are used to offset future employer contributions. This is done at the end of the year during which the forfeiture occurred.

 

 

 

Transfers From Other Plans

 

 

 

The Plan and the Company allow participants to transfer account balances between other plans sponsored by the Company when they transfer to a new division or their job status (i.e., union versus nonunion) changes.

 

 

 

Plan Termination

 

 

 

The employer intends to continue the Plan indefinitely; however, the employer reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time. In the event of termination, all amounts credited to participants’ accounts shall become 100% vested and distributed to participants in accordance with the Plan’s provisions.

Note 2

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

 

 

Method of Accounting

 

 

 

The financial statements of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

 

 

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

 

 

 

The preparation of the accompanying financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that directly affect the results of certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

 

 

Investments

 

 

 

The Plans investments are commingled with other plans of The Manitowoc Company, Inc. in the Master Trust. Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct contributions in 1% increments in any of the defined investment options.

 

 

 

Investments are stated at fair value. Money market funds are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. Mutual funds and common stock of the Company are carried at current value which represents the quoted market values of the underlying investments. Common/collective trust funds are valued based on the market value of the underlying investment held by the fund. Participant loans are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

 

 

 

Unrealized appreciation or depreciation is reflected for the year in the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits. Gains or losses on security transactions are recorded as the difference between proceeds received and the carrying value of the investments. Interest income is recognized on the accrual method, and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

8



 

 

The average yield for the Capital Preservation Fund was 4.10% and 4.60% for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The crediting interest rate for this fund was 3.86% and 4.37% at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

 

 

 

Benefit Claims Payable

 

 

 

Benefit claims payable on the statement of net assets available for benefits relates to distributions requested prior to year-end, but completed subsequent to year-end.

 

 

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

 

 

The Master Trust’s investments are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.

Note 3

Investments in the Master Trust

 

 

 

The Plan’s allocated share of the Master Trust’s net assets and investment activities is based upon the total of each participant’s share of the Master Trust. The percentage of the Plan’s assets to the total assets of the Master Trust is 61% and 59% as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Plan’s approximate allocated share of the net assets of each fund in the Master Trust at December 31, 2004 and 2003, was:
