Item 1. BUSINESS
Background
SafeCard Services, Incorporated ("SafeCard") has been in the business of selling subscriptions by mail and telephone for continuity services that it operates or administers. Continuity services are services provided pursuant to subscriptions which typically continue annually or periodically unless cancelled by the subscriber. SafeCard is a Delaware corporation organized in 1969. During 1992, the Company* relocated its headquarters and operational facility from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Company's executive offices are located at 3001 E. Pershing Blvd., Cheyenne, Wyoming, 82001, and its telephone number is (307) 771-2700. (See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note E of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data).
Subscriptions are primarily sold to credit cardholders through arrangements with credit card issuers, including banks and financial services companies, major oil companies, retail department stores and others. Subscriber acquisition material printed for the Company that describes its services and how to subscribe is inserted in the credit card issuer's monthly billing statements or mailed by the Company directly to credit cardholders. Credit cardholders are also asked to subscribe by means of telephone calls. Subscription fees are generally billed to subscribers' credit card accounts and remitted to the Company by the credit card issuer.
The Company's principal service is credit card loss notification ("Hot- Line"), whereby the Company gives prompt notice to credit card issuers upon being informed that a subscriber's credit cards have been lost or stolen (plus a variety of ancillary service features). Other continuity services offered by the Company include those related to fee-based credit cards, reminder services, a personal credit information service, a discount travel service and a legal plan. Certain of the Company's services include incidental insurance coverage underwritten by its insurance subsidiary. In 1993, the Company also began placing greater emphasis on the development of new products and services. For information regarding the Company's revenue, earnings and financial condition, see Item 6. Selected Financial Data, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
In December 1993, the Board of Directors elected Paul G. Kahn as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Under Mr. Kahn's leadership, the Company's strategy is to broaden its scope so as to become an entrepreneurial, market-driven consumer services company. While expansion of the business and the development of new areas of business may not contribute significantly to revenues in 1994, the Company may incur certain expenses in 1994 in developing these new areas of business. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
References herein to the years 1993, 1992 and 1991 refer to the Company's fiscal years ended October 31.
*Unless otherwise noted or where the context otherwise requires, the term "Company" refers to SafeCard Services, Incorporated, including its 100%-owned subsidiaries, SafeCard Services Insurance Company, SafeCard Travel Services, Inc., SafeCard Marketing, Inc. and one inactive subsidiary.
Services Provided
Hot-Line Credit Card Loss Notification Service
Hot-Line is the Company's original service and has been its major source of revenue and earnings. A subscriber's credit cards may be registered with the Company's operations center where the data is maintained. If a subscriber notifies the Company of the loss or theft of his/her credit cards, the Company retrieves (or, if cards have not previously been registered, obtains) the necessary information, and then promptly notifies the credit card issuers of the loss, simultaneously requesting replacement. A variety of ancillary services are typically also made available to subscribers. In 1993, the Company increased the price of certain annual membership fees from $12 to $15. The Company also sells multi-year subscriptions, generally for three year periods at prices historically ranging from $36-$39, which provide for payment in advance of the full subscription price. The Company increased the price of certain multi-year membership fees from $36 - $39, to $45 in 1993. The Company sometimes offers to subscribers an initial trial period at either no fee or a nominal fee.
In most states Hot-Line includes liability insurance against fraudulent use of credit cards, issuance of fraud-deterrent stickers to be affixed to credit cards, notification to card issuers of a subscriber's address change, and in some instances, issuance of an emergency medical card containing a microfilm history of certain medical data provided by the subscriber. The Company will also typically wire a $100 to $1500 cash advance or send an airplane ticket to subscribers under certain conditions. Such advances and the cost of such tickets are typically repayable in thirty days. Other services available to subscribers include a nationwide toll-free message service (similar to an answering service) and a lost key return service.
During 1993, 1992 and 1991, Hot-Line provided 73%, 73% and 72%, respectively, of the Company's subscription revenue. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Fee-Based Credit Card Services
The Company, through arrangements with credit card issuers, markets fee- based credit cards, generally to the issuer's existing no fee cardholders. For an annual fee of $15 to $25, cardholders who subscribe to the fee-based credit cards typically receive a new credit card, issued by the credit card issuer, and various services such as credit card registration, discounts on travel, insurance and other services provided or obtained by the Company. The card issuer is responsible for the collection of all charges made to the credit card and may also provide other services to the cardholder. During 1993, 1992 and 1991, Fee Card programs provided 13%, 12% and 12%, respectively, of the Company's subscription revenue. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Reminder Services
The date reminder services ("Reminder Services") provide subscribers, by mail, a monthly computer-generated reminder listing personal dates and events registered by the subscriber in addition to standard holidays. Subscribers add dates and events as desired, either by mail or by calling the Company's toll-free, 24 hour-a-day operations center. The Reminder Services include either a large plastic-laminated wall calendar, and/or a personal Desk Appointment Book, and/or a Pocket Appointment Book. During 1993, 1992 and 1991, Reminder Services provided less than 10% of the Company's subscription revenue.
CreditLine Services
CreditLine is a personal credit information service. Subscribers receive a comprehensive personal credit report biography either annually or upon request and other services such as a date reminder service and a social security update service. The subscriber's credit information is obtained from national credit bureaus and reorganized into a user-friendly format. The annual fees are typically $29. The Company also sometimes markets CreditLine in conjunction with other services at higher prices. The credit reporting business is subject to existing regulation, as well as future regulation, if any. During 1993, 1992 and 1991, CreditLine Services provided less than 10% of the Company's subscription revenue.
The Company began marketing CreditLine in 1989. The Company markets CreditLine pursuant to an agreement ("the CreditLine Agreement") with CreditLine Corporation, a corporation owned by Peter and Steven J. Halmos, the Company's co-founders and their families. Billings, costs and any resulting profits or losses, are shared 50% by the Company and 50% by CreditLine Corporation. In June 1993, the Company was notified by CreditLine Corporation that the license agreement under which the Company markets certain credit information products and services known as CreditLine would not be renewed effective November 1, 1993. However, the Company believes it has certain continuing marketing rights under the license agreement. In addition, the CreditLine Agreement is the subject of litigation between Peter Halmos and related entities and the Company. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
New Services Under Development
In 1993, the Company began placing greater emphasis on the development of new products and services and is currently test marketing three new services with various credit card issuer clients. Results to date are too preliminary to determine the viability of these services. New products and services which are test marketed are frequently not successful.
Other Services
The Company offers a discount travel service, either separately or in conjunction with other programs. Although the Company is no longer actively marketing its prepaid legal and home protection services, it does provide these services to existing subscribers who renew their subscriptions. In past years, the Company marketed certain reference services ("Reference Services") which included either the Guiness Book of World Records, The World Almanac and Book of Facts or The J.K. Lasser Tax Guide. While the Company is not marketing these programs at the present time, the Company continues to provide services to existing subscribers who renew their subscriptions. During 1993, 1992 and 1991, these other services collectively provided less than 10% of the Company's subscription revenue.
Subscriber Acquisition
The Company sells subscriptions for its services primarily through arrangements with credit card issuers, to consumers who use credit cards. The Company's subscriber acquisition strategy includes direct mail (generally "Solo Mailings" and "Billing Inserts") and telephone sales. The Company's subscriber acquisition campaigns are typically based on internally-developed strategies, research, formats, copy and graphics and often include multiple solicitations within an overall strategy.
The Company's Solo Mailings are generally those created and mailed directly by the Company to holders of credit cards from listings supplied to the Company by the issuers of such credit cards. The printing is typically done by others under contract with SafeCard. While Solo Mailings vary in type and content, they generally include a descriptive brochure, a letter and other subscriber acquisition materials, as well as a postage-paid return subscription form. Each Solo Mailing typically must be approved by the credit card issuer and generally contains materials (i.e., letter, envelope, etc.) bearing the credit card issuer's name and logo.
Billing Inserts are generally created by the Company and printed by others under contract and are inserted in the monthly billing statements of credit card issuers. Billing Inserts have the advantage of low cost (because postage is generally paid by credit card issuers). Each Billing Insert mailing typically must be approved by the credit card issuer. Due to the comparatively low cost of Billing Inserts and the limitation on the number of inserts which may be placed in any single billing statement, there is intense competition for insert space.
The current average cost of Solo Mailings is approximately $230 per thousand pieces of mail, as compared with about $30 per thousand pieces for Billing Inserts. While Solo Mailings are more costly, primarily due to the fact that the Company pays the postage, Solo Mailings typically generate a higher response rate. In addition, Solo Mailings may be sent to all cardholders of a card issuer, whereas Billing Inserts are mailed only to cardholders who are receiving a statement in the month of insertion. A U.S. postal rate increase is anticipated in 1995. Since postage represents the largest component of direct mail cost, this will have a direct impact on the Company.
The Company also sells subscriptions (primarily Hot-Line) by telephone. Although the cost of telephone sales is typically higher, as compared to Solo Mailing and Billing Inserts, the response rates are generally higher and the initial subscription period for telephone sales is often for more than one year, with payment to the Company in advance. Mailings result in both single year and multi year subscribers, with a larger percentage being single year.
During 1993, 1992 and 1991, approximately 54%, 58% and 50%, respectively of all subscriptions for Hot-Line were acquired through telephone sales. See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Subscriber acquisition costs are the Company's largest expense category. Subscriber fees are the primary source of revenue. The relationship of these costs to subscription revenues is dependent on a variety of factors including prices, net response rates (gross enrollments less cancellations), marketing costs and renewal rates. These factors are affected by economic conditions, interest rates, other factors affecting the number of credit cards in use, demographic trends, consumers' propensity to buy, the degree of market penetration and the effectiveness of subscriber acquisition concepts, copy and marketing strategies, and other factors. In addition, cardholders of certain credit card issuer clients respond more favorably than others to similar promotions. In 1993, subscriber acquisition and service costs, as a percentage of subscription revenue, increased by approximately 2% over the prior year (primarily due to a decline in certain net response rates, primarily in telemarketing). See Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Relationships with Credit Card Issuers
The Company acquires its subscribers primarily through contractual arrangements with credit card issuers (including banks and financial services companies, major oil companies, retail department stores and others) for the mail and telephone sales of its services to the issuers' credit card customers. The Company also provides, to a limited extent, on a wholesale basis, its services to large membership groups which are affiliated with credit card issuers, such as oil company travel clubs. New marketing with particular credit card issuers varies from year to year based on both the Company's and the credit card issuer's strategies as well as contractual requirements.
The Company has written agreements with a few large credit card issuers which account for a large percentage of its subscription revenue. Termination of any of these contracts would adversely affect the Company.
Contracts with Citicorp (South Dakota), N.A. and related entities contributed 34%, 37% and 41% of the Company's consolidated subscription revenue in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. The Company has had contracts with Citicorp since 1981. The principal Citicorp contract, which had an initial term through June 1993, was amended on March 31, 1992 to extend the contract to December 31, 1997 and again on September 1, 1993 to extend the contract to December 31, 1999. Citicorp has a right to terminate the contract in the event of the sale of a majority of the shares of the Company to specified credit card issuers, to banks and their corporate affiliates, and to entities that do not have equity of at least $25 million.
Contracts with Sears, Roebuck and Co. contributed approximately 10% of the Company's subscription revenue during 1993 (and less than 10% in 1992 and 1991). The agreement, which contains a provision for cancellation without cause upon 90 days notice, is subject to renewal annually.
Contracts with Shell Oil Company accounted for approximately 10% of the Company's consolidated subscription revenue in 1991 (and less than 10% in 1993 and 1992). The Shell Oil Company contracts have varying initial terms but automatically renew on an annual basis unless terminated by either party.
Credit card issuers from time to time may adopt a change in business strategy which may affect the Company. For example, in October 1993, Shell Oil Company and a major bank announced the joint marketing of a co-branded card. In addition, certain consolidations of credit card issuers and market share shifts have occured and may continue to occur. To date, the Company has not noted any material impact as a result of these changes in business strategy.
The Company's many contracts with credit card issuers generally (though not always) have a one-year or two-year initial term, provide for automatic annual renewal thereafter unless cancelled by either party, and are subject to the fulfillment of certain contractual obligations. These contracts generally provide for the mail and/or telephone sales of subscriptions to the issuer's credit card customers, for the billing (to the subscriber's credit card account) and collection of subscription fees by the card issuers and for payment to the card issuers of commissions or fees. In certain cases, the Company enters into profit-sharing arrangements with credit card issuers, in which the Company pays compensation to credit card issuers based on profitability (as defined in the agreement with the credit card issuer).
Authorization for each mailing and/or telephone sales campaign typically must be obtained by the Company from the card issuer, although some contracts contain minimum marketing volume requirements. The Company's ability to obtain such authorization is critical and is dependent on many factors, including the business strategies of the credit card issuer clients; the volume, profitability and efficiency of subscriber acquisitions; quality and efficiency of the Company's subscriber servicing; and competition for the limited subscriber acquisition volume which may be allowed by any one issuer. Additional important factors in the maintenance of these contracts are the Company's knowledge of the differing operational requirements of each credit card issuer, including compatible data processing software, innovative subscriber acquisition strategies, operational efficiency and financial stability.
The Company generally does not have proprietary or other rights to the issuers' credit card customer lists should a credit card issuer terminate its contract with the Company. In that event, with the majority of issuers, the Company would continue to provide services to, and receive its revenue from, existing subscribers after termination. The Company's right to continue to bill existing subscribers after termination of client contract generally continues as long as there is an active credit card or until such subscribers cancel their subscriptions or for certain contractually specified periods of time.
Competition
Competition in securing contracts with credit card issuers for sales of subscriptions to the issuers' cardholders -- i.e., the third party endorsed segment of the credit card industry -- is intense. Among the factors affecting the outcome of such competition are the quality and reliability of the services to be offered, subscriber acquisition strategy and expertise (which is highly dependent upon creative talents), operational capability, reputation, financial stability of the company supplying the services, the confidence of credit card issuers in management of the company and the compensation or fee paid to the credit card issuer. Additionally, the Company must maintain security over credit card and credit data of which it has custody.
The Company believes it has greater than 50% of the market share (within the United States) for credit card registration. Competitors in the credit card registration business include Credit Card Sentinel, CUC International, American Express and others. Fee-based credit cards are sometimes directly marketed and/or serviced by certain credit card issuers. Certain national credit bureaus, as well as CUC International, offer or have offered personal credit information services in competition with CreditLine. CreditLine is dependant upon the purchase of consumer credit data from such credit bureaus and there is no other comparable source for such data. In addition, some of the new products and services which the Company may be exploring, developing or testing, are currently marketed by competitors. The Company's competition is not limited to companies offering similar products and services. Since the Company competes for "advertising space" of various credit card issuers, it competes with companies who market other products and services through credit card issuers. Certain of the Company's competitors may have greater resources and/or other competitive advantages.
The Company's competition is not confined to any particular region of the country.
The Company has a non-compete with Steven J. Halmos, the Company's co- founder, which expires in the year 2000. See Note I of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Employees
As of December 31, 1993, the Company employed 435 persons, including 12 part-time employees, as compared to 372 employees (including 27 part-time employees) as of December 31, 1992.
Other Information
Printing of subscriber acquisition materials is generally contracted to commercial printers. The Company copyrights most of this material and registers its trademarks. Telephone sales are made using the services of independent contractors with the Company developing and dictating sales strategies, methods and controls. These strategies, methods and controls are subject to approval by the credit card issuers. Currently the Company has contracted with several independent telemarketing contractors, with one such contractor accounting for what may be considered a material portion of the volume, to execute its telephone sales using scripts and procedures provided by the Company. There are other independent telephone sales contractors who could provide similar services for the Company.
Certain copyrights and trademarks of the Company, such as the name "Hot- Line", may be material to its business. The earliest expiration date of any such copyright is 2002. Various trademarks of the Company are registered under applicable federal law. These trademarks, which expire periodically, are subject to renewal, and the Company presently intends to renew all such trademarks. The agreement pursuant to which the Company markets CreditLine provides that logos, trademarks, tradenames, service marks and copyrights do not belong to the Company. This agreement is subject to litigation. In June 1993, the Company was notified by CreditLine Corporation, that the license agreement under which the Company markets certain credit information products and services would not be renewed on November 1, 1993. See Note K of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data and Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
Due to the nature of the Company's business, the Company views security as a significant function, a breach of which could have a material adverse impact on the Company. As such, the Company places a great deal of emphasis on security of its assets and information. No security systems/procedures are foolproof. In fact, many aspects of the Company's activities involve some degree of security risk.
The Company's business is not generally seasonal in nature, except that the Company avoids subscriber acquisition campaigns prior to and during certain holiday periods, i.e., Thanksgiving, Christmas and Independence Day. The Company's cash receipts and disbursements are also related to the timing of advertising campaigns.
All raw materials, primarily paper, plastic and printer's ink, are readily available.
Subscribers to the Company's services are entitled to receive the benefits of their subscriptions immediately; consequently, the Company has no backlog.
Management believes there are no material adverse effects upon the Company from current federal, state and local laws and regulations with respect to the discharge of materials into the environment.
The Company's operations for mail and telephone sales are conducted on a nationwide basis and the Company does not derive its revenue from any particular geographic area of the United States. During the period 1991 through 1993, the Company did not conduct any significant operations, nor derive any material portion of its sales or revenue, from subscribers in foreign countries.
