BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 filed by TLC Vision Corporation (the "Company" or "TLCVision") with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments and estimates considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year ending December 31, 2004. The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2003 and unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries that are not considered variable interest entities (VIEs) and all VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2003 include certain reclassifications to conform with classifications for the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2004. Earnings per share was computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The diluted weighted average shares outstanding calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 includes 2.7 million shares and 2.6 million shares, respectively, for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method and the average stock price during the respective periods. In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51" (FIN 46). In December 2003, the FASB modified FIN 46 to make certain technical corrections and address certain implementation issues that had arisen. FIN 46 provides a new framework for identifying VIEs and determining when a company should include the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and results of activities of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. In general, a VIE is any legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets that either (1) has an insufficient amount of equity to carry out its principal activities without additional subordinated financial support, (2) has a group of equity owners that are unable to make significant individual decisions about its activities, or (3) has a group of equity owners that do not have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive returns generated by its operations. FIN 46 requires a VIE to be consolidated if a party with an ownership, contractual or other financial interest in the VIE (a variable interest holder) is obligated to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE's activities, is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's residual returns (if no party absorbs a majority of the VIE's losses), or both. A variable interest holder that consolidates the VIE is called the primary beneficiary. Upon consolidation, the primary beneficiary generally must initially record all of the VIE's assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at fair value and subsequently account for the VIE as if it were consolidated based on majority voting interest. FIN 46 was effective immediately for VIEs created after January 31, 2003. The provisions of FIN 46, as revised, were adopted as of January 1, 2004, for the Company's interests in all VIEs. Prior to the adoption of FIN 46, the Company did not consolidate the physician practices that were managed but not owned by the Company. These managed physician practices were determined to be variable interest entities for which the 7 Company is the primary beneficiary. As a result, the physician practices have been consolidated as of January 1, 2004. The adoption of FIN 46 resulted in an increase of total assets of $48,000 as of June 30, 2004, and an increase in revenues and cost of revenues for the managed refractive centers, no material impact on gross margin or operating income, and no impact on net income. Prior periods were not restated. The following pro forma amounts reflect the effect of FIN 46 assuming it is applied retroactively:

As a result of the elimination of the distinction between owned and managed centers upon the adoption of FIN 46, their revenue and costs are no longer identified separately on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. Although the Company's investment in Vascular Sciences is considered to be a variable interest in a VIE, the Company does not consolidate Vascular Sciences as it is not the primary beneficiary. 2. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related interpretations. Accordingly, the Company records expense over the vesting period in an amount equal to the intrinsic value of the award on the grant date. The Company recorded compensation expense of $155,000 and $575,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, including $15,000 and $334,000, respectively, of variable stock option expense for options repriced in 2002. The following table illustrates the pro forma net income and net income per share as if the fair value-based method as set forth under SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," applied to all awards: 8

3. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS On January 1, 2004, the Company settled a lawsuit brought by Thomas S. Tooma, M.D. and TST Acquisitions, LLC ("TST") in October 2002. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company sold approximately 24% of Laser Eye Care of California ("LECC") and 30% of its California access business to TST for $2.3 million. The Company continues to hold a 30% ownership in LECC and a 70% ownership in the California access business. The Company recorded a $1.1 million gain on the sale of these business interests which is included in "other income (expense), net" in the accompanying statements of operations. Effective January 1, 2004, the Company deconsolidated LECC and began reporting its interest in LECC under the equity method of accounting because it no longer owns a controlling interest in the entity. On March 1, 2004, OR Partners, Inc., a subsidiary of TLCVision, entered into a purchase agreement to acquire 70% of an ambulatory surgery center ("ASC") in Texas, which provides access to surgical and diagnostic equipment to perform cataract surgery in hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers. The Company paid $3.8 million in cash, substantially all of which was goodwill. The results of operations have been included in the consolidated statements of operations of the Company since the acquisition date. 4. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has two reportable segments: refractive and cataract. The refractive segment provides the primary source of revenues for the Company and is in the business of providing corrective laser surgery specifically related to refractive disorders, such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism. This segment is comprised of Company-owned laser centers, Company-managed laser centers and the access and mobile refractive business services. The cataract segment provides surgery specifically for the treatment of cataracts. Other segments consist of healthcare businesses that provide network marketing and purchasing management to optometrists, manage cataract and eye care centers and develop and manage professional healthcare facilities. None of these activities meet the quantitative criteria to be disclosed separately as a reportable segment. Doctors compensation as presented in the segment information of the financial statements represents the cost to the Company of engaging ophthalmic professionals to perform laser vision correction services at the Company's laser centers. Where the Company manages laser centers due to certain state law requirements, it is the responsibility of the professional corporations or physicians to whom the Company furnishes management services to provide the required professional services and engage ophthalmic professionals. In 2003, the costs associated with arranging for these professional services were reported as a cost of the professional corporation and not of the Company. In 2004, the costs associated with arranging for these professional services were reported as a cost of the Company due to the adoption of FIN 46. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different management and marketing strategies. The Company's business units were acquired or developed as a unit, and management at the time of acquisition was retained. The following tables set forth information by segments: 9

6. INVESTMENTS AND OTHER ASSETS As of December 31, 2002, the Company maintained a $1.9 million reserve against a $2.3 million long-term receivable from a secondary care service provider of which the Company owns approximately 25% of the outstanding common shares. The Company had determined that the ability of this secondary care service provider to repay this note was in doubt due to the deteriorating financial condition of the investee. During the first six months of 2003, the secondary care provider was profitable, improved its financial strength and consistently made all payments to the Company when due. As a result, the Company reevaluated the collectibility of this note receivable as of June 30, 2003 and recorded an adjustment to the fair value of investments and long-term receivables of $0.7 million to reverse a portion of the reserve. During the last six months of 2003 and the first six months of 2004, this secondary care provider continued to improve its profitability and financial position and made all of its payments to the Company when due. As a result, the Company reevaluated the collectibility of the note again as of June 30, 2004 and recorded an adjustment to the fair value of investments and long-term receivables to reverse the remaining reserve of $1.2 million. 7. RESTRUCTURING, SEVERANCE AND OTHER CHARGES During the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company recorded a $2.5 million charge for severance payments to two officers under the terms of employment contracts and a $0.3 million charge related to ongoing lease payment obligations at previously closed centers. The severance payments will be paid out within the next six to nine months, while the lease costs will be paid out over the remaining term of the lease. 11 ITEM 2.

OVERVIEW TLC Vision Corporation (formerly TLC Laser Eye Centers Inc.) and its subsidiaries ("TLCVision" or the "Company") is a diversified healthcare service company focused on working with eye doctors to help them provide high quality patient care in the eye care segment. The majority of the Company's revenues come from refractive surgery, which involves using an excimer laser to treat common refractive vision disorders such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness) and astigmatism. The Company's business models include arrangements ranging from owning and managing fixed site centers to providing access to lasers through fixed site and mobile service relationships. In addition to refractive surgery, the Company is diversified into other eye care businesses. Through its Midwest Surgical Services, Inc. ("MSS") subsidiary, the Company furnishes hospitals and independent surgeons with mobile or fixed site access to cataract surgery equipment and services. Through its OR Partners, Aspen Healthcare and Michigan subsidiaries, TLCVision develops, manages and has equity participation in single-specialty eye care ambulatory surgery centers and multi-specialty ambulatory surgery centers. The Company also owns a 51% majority interest in Vision Source, which provides franchise opportunities to independent optometrists. In 2002, the Company formed a joint venture with Vascular Sciences Corporation ("VSC") to create OccuLogix, L.P., a partnership focused on the treatment of a specific eye disease known as dry age-related macular degeneration, via rheopheresis, a process for filtering blood. The Company serves surgeons who performed over 137,000 procedures including cataract procedures at the Company's centers or using the Company's laser and cataract access programs during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004. The Company continually assesses patient, optometric and ophthalmic industry trends and developing strategies to improve laser vision correction revenues and procedure volumes. The Company's cost reduction initiatives continue to target the effective use of funds and the Company is also pursuing growth initiatives focusing on future development opportunities for the Company in other healthcare services. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 As a result of adopting FIN 46, the Company began consolidating the physician practices that are managed but not owned by the Company on January 1, 2004. The consolidation resulted in the Company recording an additional $4.5 million in center revenue, $4.4 million in center cost of revenue and $0.1 million in general and administrative expenses during the second quarter of 2004 as the revenue earned and expenses paid (primarily doctors compensation) by the physician practices are now included in the Company's results. The consolidation had no impact on net income for the quarter. Prior to the adoption, doctors compensation and related revenue were not reflected in the Company's statement of operations for the managed centers, but were reflected in the Company's statement of operations for the owned centers. The Company previously presented the revenues and cost of revenues of managed centers and owned centers separately in the 12 statements of operations due to different profit margins. Beginning with the first quarter of 2004, the Company presents all centers, managed and owned, together because both types of centers now include doctors compensation and the related revenue. The increase in center revenue attributed to the adoption of FIN 46 is partially offset by the deconsolidation of LECC in connection with the sale of a portion of the Company's interest in LECC. The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003, included $3.5 million in center revenues related to LECC whereas the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2004 include no center revenue for LECC because LECC is accounted for using the equity method of accounting beginning January 1, 2004. Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $64.7 million, an increase of $17.2 million, or 36% over revenues of $47.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Approximately 73% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were derived from refractive services compared to 75% during the three months ended June 30, 2003, reflecting the Company's success in diversifying into other healthcare businesses. Revenues from the refractive segment for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $46.9 million, an increase of $11.0 million or 31% from $35.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase was primarily due to a 16% increase in procedure volume and higher average pricing associated with the introduction of Custom LASIK in June 2003. Revenues from centers for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $36.4 million, an increase of $10.2 million, or 39% from the revenues of $26.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Higher procedure volumes at centers, higher pricing due to Custom LASIK and additional revenue as a result of adopting FIN 46 were partially offset by lost revenue from several unprofitable centers that were closed subsequent to June 30, 2003. Management believes center revenues will continue to outpace prior year revenue throughout 2004. Revenues from access services for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $10.5 million, an increase of $0.9 million or 9% from revenues of $9.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The growth in the access business resulted from increased procedure volume. Approximately 51,600 refractive procedures were performed in the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared to approximately 44,600 procedures for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This 7,000 or 16% increase in procedures was primarily due to 5,900 or 24% more procedures at centers open during both the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and 1,700 or 9% more procedures for the access business offset by the absence of 600 procedures at centers that were closed within the past year. Procedures for LECC are included in both periods and account for 4,000 procedures for the three months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of 900 procedures over the prior year period. The cost of refractive revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $31.8 million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 17% over the cost of refractive revenues of $27.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to increased procedure volume and higher costs associated with Custom LASIK. Primarily as a result of higher procedure volumes at centers, gross margins for the refractive business as a whole increased to 32% during the three months ended June 30, 2004 from 24% in the prior year period. The cost of revenues from centers for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $24.6 million, an increase of $4.0 million, or 19% from the cost of revenues of $20.6 million from the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase primarily resulted from $2.1 million of higher costs related to increased procedure volume and $4.4 million of costs resulting from the Company's adoption of FIN 46 effective January 1, 2004 (as compared to none in the prior year period). These increases were offset by $2.5 million in cost of revenues for LECC during the three months ended June 30, 2003 (as compared to none during the three months ended June 30, 2004) since LECC is now reported in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations using the equity method. Gross margins from centers increased to 32% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from 21% during the prior year period as increased procedure volumes led to strong incremental variable margin gains at many of the Company's centers. This margin percentage increase was diluted by the consolidation of the physician practices managed by the Company due to the adoption of FIN 46. For comparison purposes, had the Company consolidated the physician practices during 2003, the gross margin percentage would have been 19% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. 13 The cost of revenues from access services for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $7.1 million, an increase of $0.6 million or 10% from the cost of revenues of $6.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase primarily resulted from higher procedure volume. Gross margins decreased to 32% from 33% due to pricing pressure from competitors and higher costs associated with Custom LASIK. Revenues from other healthcare services for the three months ended June 30, 2004, were $17.7 million, an increase of $6.1 million or 52% from revenues of $11.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Approximately 27% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were derived from other healthcare services compared to 25% during the three months ended June 30, 2003. The increase in other healthcare services revenue resulted from internal growth of existing business and contributions from businesses acquired within the past year, and was reflective of the Company's stated diversification strategy to increase non-refractive eye care services. The cost of revenues from other healthcare services for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $10.6 million, an increase of $2.6 million or 33% from cost of revenues of $8.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The increase in cost of revenues primarily related to incremental costs incurred to generate the increased revenue of the other healthcare service business. Gross margins increased to 40% from 32% due to volume growth and a higher percentage of revenue generated from OR Partners and Vision Source, which provide services with higher gross margin percentages than other businesses within the other healthcare services category. General and administrative expenses decreased to $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The $0.9 million or 11% decrease reflected the Company's success in controlling overhead costs despite a 36% increase in revenue. Accordingly, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 11% from 17% compared to the prior year quarter. Marketing expenses of $3.4 million decreased by $0.1 million or 2% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 5% from 7% in the prior year period, reflecting the Company's success in increasing revenue while controlling marketing expenses. Research and development expenses were $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, relating to investments made to fund research and development efforts by VSC to achieve Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approval for medical treatments related to dry age-related macular degeneration. Since the technology is in the development stage and has not received FDA approval, the Company accounted for this investment as a research and development arrangement whereby investments were expensed as amounts are expended by VSC. Amortization expenses decreased to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This decrease was largely due to the reduction in intangible assets (Practice Management Agreements) resulting from the deconsolidation of LECC. As of June 30, 2004, the Company fully reversed a reserve by $1.2 million related to a long-term note receivable due to a consistent payment history and continually improving financial strength of the debtor. The Company had initially reduced the reserve in the prior year period by $0.7 million due to a similar valuation analysis. The Company recorded a $2.5 million charge for severance payments to two officers under the terms of employment contracts and a $0.3 million charge for ongoing lease payment obligations at previously closed centers during the three months ended June 30, 2004. The Company recorded a $1.7 million charge during the three months ended June 30, 2003 primarily relating to the closing of four unprofitable centers. Interest expense, net of $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 reflected interest expense from debt and lease obligations, partially offset by interest income from the Company's cash position. In the prior year period, average debt levels were higher resulting in net interest expense of $0.4 million. Minority interest expense was $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $1.5 million from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase results from higher profits at certain of the Company's subsidiaries in which partners hold minority interests. Earnings from equity investments of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 resulted primarily from $0.2 14 million of earnings related to the Company's minority ownership investment in LECC and $0.3 million of earnings related to the Company's minority ownership investment in a secondary care service provider. Income tax expense was $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. The $0.1 million tax expense primarily consisted of federal and state taxes for certain of the Company's subsidiaries where a consolidated federal and state tax return cannot be filed. The current year federal income tax expense attributable to the Company and subsidiaries included in the consolidated federal return was offset by the reversal of valuation allowances as the Company anticipates utilizing net operating loss carryforwards. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $6.2 million or $0.09 per share compared to loss of $3.5 million or $0.05 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 As a result of adopting FIN 46, the Company began consolidating the physician practices that are managed but not owned by the Company on January 1, 2004. The consolidation resulted in the Company recording an additional $9.0 million in center revenue, $8.9 million in center cost of revenue and $0.1 million in general and administrative expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2004, as the revenue earned and expenses paid (primarily doctors compensation) by the physician practices are now included in the Company's results. The consolidation had no impact on net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Prior to the adoption, doctors compensation and related revenue were not reflected in the Company's statement of operations for the managed centers, but were reflected in the Company's statement of operations for the owned centers. The Company previously presented the revenues and cost of revenues of managed centers and owned centers separately in the statements of operation due to different profit margins. Beginning with the first quarter of 2004, the Company presents all centers, managed and owned, together because both types of centers now include doctors compensation and the related revenue. The increase in revenue attributed to the adoption of FIN 46 is partially offset by the deconsolidation of LECC in connection with the sale of a portion of the Company's interest in LECC. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003, included $7.0 million in center revenues related to LECC whereas the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 include no center revenue for LECC because LECC is accounted for using the equity method of accounting beginning January 1, 2004. Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $129.8 million, an increase of $28.7 million, or 28% over revenues of $101.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Approximately 75% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were derived from refractive services compared to 77% during the six months ended June 30, 2003, reflecting the Company's success in diversifying into other healthcare businesses. Revenues from the refractive segment for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $97.8 million, an increase of $20.1 million or 26% from $77.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase was primarily due to a 11% increase in procedure volume and higher average pricing associated with the introduction of Custom LASIK in June 2003. Revenues from centers for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $75.2 million, an increase of $18.0 million, or 32% from the revenues of $57.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Higher procedure volumes at centers, higher pricing due to Custom LASIK and additional revenue as a result of adopting FIN 46 were partially offset by lost revenue from several unprofitable centers that were closed subsequent to December 31, 2002. Management believes center revenues will continue to outpace prior year revenue throughout 2004. Revenues from access services for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $22.6 million, an increase of $2.0 million or 10% from revenues of $20.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The growth in the access business resulted from increased procedure volume. Approximately 108,500 refractive procedures were performed in the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to approximately 98,000 procedures for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This 10,500 or 11% increase in procedures was 15 primarily due to 10,300 or 20% more procedures at centers open during both the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and 2,700 or 6% more procedures for the access business offset by the absence of 2,500 procedures at centers that were closed within the past year. Procedures for LECC are included in both periods and account for 8,000 procedures for the six months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of 1,600 procedures over the prior year period. The cost of refractive revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $66.1 million, an increase of $9.3 million, or 16% over the cost of refractive revenues of $56.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to increased procedure volume and higher costs associated with Custom LASIK. Primarily as a result of higher procedure volumes at centers, gross margins for the refractive business as a whole increased to 32% during the six months ended June 30, 2004 from 27% in the prior year period. The cost of revenues from centers for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $50.8 million, an increase of $7.6 million, or 18% from the cost of revenues of $43.2 million from the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase primarily resulted from $3.6 million of higher costs related to increased procedure volume and $8.9 million of costs resulting from the Company's adoption of FIN 46 effective January 1, 2004 (as compared to none in the prior year period). These increases are offset by $4.9 million in cost of revenues for LECC during the six months ended June 30, 2003 (as compared to none during the six months ended June 30, 2004) since LECC is now reported in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations using the equity method. Gross margins from centers increased to 32% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from 24% during the prior year period as increased procedure volumes led to strong incremental variable margin gains at many of the Company's centers. This margin percentage increase was diluted by the consolidation of the physician practices managed by the Company due to the adoption of FIN 46. For comparison purposes, had the Company consolidated the physician practices during 2003, the gross margin percentage would have been 21% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The cost of revenues from access services for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $15.3 million, an increase of $1.7 million or 12% from the cost of revenues of $13.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase primarily resulted from higher procedure volume. Gross margins decreased to 32% from 34% due to pricing pressure from competitors and higher costs associated with Custom LASIK. Revenues from other healthcare services for the six months ended June 30, 2004, were $32.0 million, an increase of $8.6 million or 37% from revenues of $23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Approximately 25% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were derived from other healthcare services compared to 23% during the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase in other healthcare services revenue resulted from internal growth of existing business and contributions from businesses acquired within the past year, and was reflective of the Company's stated diversification strategy to increase non-refractive eye care services. The cost of revenues from other healthcare services for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $19.7 million, an increase of $4.3 million or 28% from cost of revenues of $15.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The increase in cost of revenues primarily related to incremental costs incurred to generate the increased revenue of the other healthcare service business. Gross margins increased to 38% from 34% due to volume growth and a higher percentage of revenue generated from OR Partners and Vision Source, which provide services with higher gross margin percentages than other businesses within the other healthcare services category. General and administrative expenses decreased to $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $16.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The $1.0 million or 6% decrease reflected the Company's success in controlling overhead costs despite a 28% increase in revenue. Accordingly, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 12% from 16% compared to the prior year period. Marketing expenses of $6.3 million decreased by $0.9 million or 12% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 5% from 7% in the prior year period, reflecting the Company's success in increasing revenue while controlling marketing expenses. Research and development expenses were $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, relating to investments made to fund research and development efforts by VSC to achieve FDA approval for medical treatments related to dry age-related macular degeneration. Since the technology is in the development stage and has not received FDA approval, the 16 Company accounted for this investment as a research and development arrangement whereby investments were expensed as amounts are expended by VSC. Amortization expenses decreased to $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This decrease was largely due to the reduction in intangible assets (Practice Management Agreements) resulting from the deconsolidation of LECC. As of June 30, 2004, the Company fully reversed a reserve by $1.2 million related to a long-term receivable due to a consistent payment history and continually improving financial strength of the debtor. In the prior year period, the Company had initially reduced the reserve by $0.7 million due to a similar valuation analysis and wrote down the value of an unrelated investment by $0.2 million due to an other than temporary decline in its value. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company recorded a $2.5 million charge for severance payments to two officers under the terms of employment contracts and a $0.3 million charge for ongoing lease payment obligations at previously closed centers. The Company had recorded $1.7 million of restructuring charges during the six months ended June 30, 2003 primarily relating to the closing of four unprofitable centers. Other income and expense of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily resulted from a $1.1 million gain on the sale of a controlling interest in LECC offset by a $0.8 million loss related to the disposal of fixed assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded $0.6 million in other revenue. Interest expense, net of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 reflected interest expense from debt and lease obligations, partially offset by interest income from the Company's cash position. In the prior year period, average debt levels were higher resulting in net interest expense of $0.8 million. Minority interest expense was $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, an increase of $1.8 million from $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase results from higher profits at certain of the Company's subsidiaries in which partners hold minority interests. Earnings from equity investments of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 resulted primarily from $0.6 million of earnings related to the Company's minority ownership investment in LECC and $0.3 million of earnings related to the Company's minority ownership investment in a secondary care service provider. Income tax expense was $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. The $0.3 million tax expense primarily consisted of federal and state taxes for certain of the Company's subsidiaries where a consolidated federal and state tax return cannot be filed. The current year federal income tax expense attributable to the Company and subsidiaries included in the consolidated federal return was offset by the reversal of valuation allowances as the Company anticipates utilizing net operating loss carryforwards. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $14.3 million or $0.20 per share compared to loss of $2.4 million or $0.04 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2003. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company continued to focus its activities primarily on increasing procedure volumes at its centers, reducing operating costs, and expanding its other healthcare businesses through internal growth and acquisitions. Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash were $49.6 million at June 30, 2004 compared to $31.7 million at December 31, 2003. Working capital at June 30, 2004 was $35.3 million, an increase of $24.4 million from $10.9 million at December 31, 2003. The Company's principal cash requirements have included normal operating expenses, debt repayment, distributions to minority partners, capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments. Normal operating expenses include doctor compensation, procedure royalty fees, procedure and medical supply expenses, travel and entertainment, professional fees, insurance, rent, equipment maintenance, wages, utilities and marketing. 17 During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company invested $3.8 million in fixed assets and received vendor lease financing for $1.0 million of fixed assets. The Company does not expect to purchase additional excimer lasers during the next 12 to 18 months, however, existing lasers and flap-making technology may need to be upgraded. The Company has access to vendor financing at fixed interest rates or on a per-procedure fee basis and expects to continue to have access to these financing options for at least the next 12 months. The Company estimates that existing cash balances and short-term investments, together with funds expected to be generated from operations and credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund the Company's anticipated level of operations and expansion plans for at least the next 12 to 18 months. At December 31, 2003, the Company had $2.1 million of exit liabilities primarily related to the restructuring of operations in connection with the LaserVision merger, including several centers that have been closed. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company reserved an additional liability of $0.3 million related to ongoing lease payment obligations at previously closed centers and made cash payments of $1.0 million toward previous liability obligations. As previously announced, the Company believes that a separation and possible initial public offering ("IPO") of VSC's patented Rheopheresis blood filtration process business ("RHEO") would maximize its potential and result in the highest value for the Company and its shareholders. As a result, the Company and the other major shareholders of VSC have in principle agreed to a plan to proceed with a re-organization that would combine VSC and OccuLogix LP (a limited partnership 50% owned by TLCVision), into a new stand-alone company focused on development of the RHEO procedure and the sales and distribution of RHEO filters and OctoNova pumps. The Company will continue to explore a potential IPO during the remainder of 2004. CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES Net cash provided by operating activities was $19.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The cash flows provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2004 were primarily due to net income of $14.3 million plus non-cash items including depreciation and amortization of $9.0 million, minority interest expense of $4.3 million and a loss on the disposal of fixed assets of $0.7 million, offset by an increase in net operating assets of $6.9 million, a gain on the sale of a subsidiary of $1.1 million, and a reversal of a long-term receivable reserve of $1.2 million. The increase in net operating assets consisted of a $3.8 million increase in accounts receivable due primarily to higher revenues, a $1.5 million increase in prepaid expenses, and a $1.7 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Settlement of litigation or payment of accrued liabilities in future periods could reduce cash without affecting working capital. CASH USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES Net cash used in investing activities was $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Cash used in investing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2004 included $4.6 million for business acquisitions, $3.8 million for the capital expenditures, $0.7 million for investments in research and development with Vascular Sciences, and $0.3 million in net cash associated with the sale of a portion of the Company's interest in LECC. These cash outflows are offset by a $0.9 million decrease in other assets, $0.7 million in cash distributions received from equity investees, and $0.5 million of proceeds from the sale of fixed assets. The $0.3 million decrease in cash related to the sale of the Company's controlling interest in the LECC consists of $2.3 million in proceeds from the sale offset by a net of $2.6 million in cash that is no longer included in the consolidated balance sheet because the LECC business is now accounted for using the equity method of accounting since the Company no longer holds a controlling interest in the entity. CASH PROVIDED BY FINANCING ACTIVITIES Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2004 was primarily related to proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $18.3 million offset by the repayment of certain notes payable and capitalized lease obligations of $8.3 million and distribution to minority interests of $3.7 million. 18 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to interest rate risks and foreign currency risks, which the Company does not currently consider to be material. These exposures primarily relate to having short-term investments earning short-term interest rates and to having fixed rate debt. The Company views its investment in foreign subsidiaries as a long-term commitment, and does not hedge any translation exposure. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by the report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective, in all material respects, to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files and submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

(1) During the year ended May 31, 2002, the Company reviewed its Practice Management Agreements ("PMA's") for impairment based on budgets prepared for future periods. The refractive industry had experienced reduced procedure volumes over the prior two years as a result of increased competition, customer confusion and a weakening North American economy. This reduction in procedures had occurred at practices the Company had purchased, and as a result revenues were lower than anticipated when initial purchase prices and resulting intangible values were determined. For U.S. GAAP purposes, the Company accounts for its intangible assets subject to amortization in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142 requires the impairment analysis first consider undiscounted cash flows in determining if an impairment exists. If an impairment is evident, a second calculation using a discounted cash flow method is utilized to determine the actual amount of the impairment. For U.S. GAAP purposes, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $31.0 million for the year ended May 31, 2002 related to its PMA's. For Canadian GAAP purposes, the Company measured the initial impairment charge in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountant's ("CICA") Handbook Section 3060, "Capital Assets", the Canadian GAAP rules in existence during the year ended May 31, 2002 ("CICA 3060"). CICA 3060 required an impairment charge to be recognized when the expected future undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying value of such assets. 29 As at May 31, 2002, this resulted in a $6.3 million difference in the write-down of the PMA's between U.S. and Canadian GAAP ($24.7 million). This difference in the initial measurement of the impairment further resulted in a difference to the amortization expense in subsequent periods, resulting in an additional $3.2 million of amortization expense for Canadian GAAP compared to U.S. GAAP. During 2003, the CICA issued CICA 3061, Property, Plant and Equipment which is consistent with U.S. GAAP, however retroactive adoption of this change was not required. (2) During the year ended May 31, 2002, the Company completed a sale-leaseback transaction. Total consideration received for the sale of the building and related land was $6.4 million, which was comprised of $5.4 million in cash and a $1.0 million 8.0% note receivable ("Note"). The Note has a seven-year term with the first of four annual payments of $63,000 starting on the third anniversary of the sale and a final payment of $0.7 million due on the seventh anniversary of the sale. For U.S. GAAP purposes, this transaction was accounted for in accordance with SFAS 98, "Accounting for Leases" ("SFAS 98"). SFAS 98 prohibits sale recognition on a sale-leaseback transaction when the sublease is considered to be minor and the only recourse to any future amounts owing from the other party is the leased asset. A sublease is considered to be minor when the present value of the sublease rent is less than 10% of the total fair market value. The Company accounted for the transaction as a financing transaction which requires sale proceeds to be recorded as a liability and for the Note to not be recognized. In addition, since the sale recognition is not accounted for, the carrying value of the asset is not adjusted for and the asset continues to be depreciated over the original depreciation period of 40 years. Lease payments, exclusive of an interest portion, decrease the liability while payments received on the Note increase the liability. For Canadian GAAP purposes, the sale-leaseback transaction was accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Committee No. 25, "Accounting for Sales with Leasebacks", which resulted in the Company recognizing a loss on the sale with a corresponding lease asset and lease obligation. The terms of the lease are considered capital in nature and accordingly the land and building are reflected as assets under capital lease with the discounted value of the lease payments recorded as an obligation under capital lease. The fair value of the assets under capital lease was less than its previous carrying value and accordingly a write down of approximately $0.8 million was reflected in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended May 31, 2002. For U.S. GAAP purposes, depreciation expense reflects the higher net book value of the building depreciated over a 40-year expected life. For Canadian GAAP purposes, the building is depreciated over the 15-year life of the lease and the $1.0 million Note is included in investments and other assets. As of June 30, 2004, as a result of the difference in the initial accounting treatment of the sale-leaseback transaction and subsequent differences in depreciation expense recorded, the net book value of the building is $1.7 million higher for U.S. GAAP. Investments and other assets is $1.0 million higher and notes payable is $1.0 million higher (of which $0.9 million is classified as long-term) for Canadian GAAP. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, depreciation expense is higher for U.S. GAAP by $70,000 and $140,000, respectively. (3) For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company reported $20,000 and $19,000 of interest income respectively related to the Note on the sale-leaseback of the building as described above. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company reported $39,000 of interest income, respectively, related to the Note on the sale-leaseback of the building. The cumulative interest earned as at June 30, 2004 of $205,000 was classified as prepaids and other current assets for Canadian GAAP purposes. (4) For U.S. GAAP purposes, the Company has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123") and as permitted under SFAS 123, applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25") and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plans. SFAS 123 requires disclosure of pro forma amounts to reflect the impact if the Company had elected to adopt the optional recognition provisions of SFAS 123 for its stock option plans and employee stock purchase plans. 30 For Canadian GAAP purposes, the Company accounts for its stock options in accordance with the provisions of CICA Section 3870, Stock-Based Compensation and Other Stock-Based Payments, ("CICA 3870"). CICA 3870, issued in December 2001, established standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation, and other stock-based payments. Under the provisions of CICA 3870, prior to January 1, 2004, companies could either measure the compensation cost of equity instruments issued under employee compensation plans using a fair value-based method or could recognize compensation cost using another method, such as the intrinsic value-based method. However, if another method was applied, pro forma disclosure of net income or loss and earnings or loss per share was required in the financial statements as if the fair value-based method had been applied. Effective January 1, 2004, CICA 3870 requires that all stock-based compensation be measured and expensed using a fair value-based methodology. Prior to January 1, 2004, the Company recognized employee stock-based compensation under the intrinsic value-based method and provided pro forma disclosure of net income or loss and earnings or loss per share as if the fair value-based method had been applied. Effective January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the fair value-based method for recognizing employee stock-based compensation on a retroactive basis to January 1, 1996, without restatement of prior periods. At January 1, 2004, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting policy on prior periods resulted in a charge to accumulated deficit of $13.6 million which represents the sum of the previously disclosed pro forma fair value adjustments with a corresponding increase to contributed surplus. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $278,000, and $554,000, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses. No compensation expense for stock options granted to employees at fair market value was included in the determination of net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, the following table presents the Company's pro forma net income and earnings per share as if the fair value-based method of CICA 3870 had been applied for all stock options granted:

During the year ended May 31, 2002, the Company allowed the holders of outstanding TLC Vision Corporation stock options with an exercise price greater than $8.688 (C$13.69) to elect to reduce the exercise price of their options to $8.688 (C$13.69), in some cases by surrendering existing options for a greater number of shares than the number of shares issuable on exercise of each repriced option. For U.S. GAAP purposes, such modification which results in a change in the exercise price of the underlying stock options is subject to APB 25's variable method of accounting for stock options. Variable accounting requires that differences between the price of the Company's common shares at the end of each reporting period and the modified exercise price be charged to income as compensation expense over the remaining vesting period of the outstanding options. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, the Company recognized additional stock compensation expense of $15,000 and $334,000, respectively, related to the modified stock options. CICA 3870 does not require the application of variable method of accounting for stock options. 31 The fair value of the options granted was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
JUNE 30, JUNE 30, 2004 2003 ---- ---- Risk free interest rate 2.35% 2.35% Volatility 0.75 0.75 Weighted average expected life 2.5 2.5
The dividend rate for options issued in 2004 and 2003 was nil. The Company issued 12,000 and 30,500 stock options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, for Canadian GAAP purposes the Company recognized $278,000 and $554,000, respectively, in stock option compensation expense related to the amortization of the fair value of issued stock options. b) Management's Discussion and Analysis - Canadian Supplement Management's Discussion and Analysis - Canadian Supplement ("Canadian Supplement") in this document is based on consolidated financial statements of TLC Vision Corporation prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Canadian Supplement has been prepared by management to provide an analysis of the impact of material differences that differ from U.S. GAAP on net income and trending analysis of the consolidated statements of operations. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004, COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $5.5 million or $0.08 per share compared to a net loss of $3.9 million or $0.06 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Amortization expenses decreased to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease was largely due to the reduction in Practice Management Agreements resulting from the deconsolidation of Laser Eye Care of California. Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2004 were primarily due to net income of $5.5 million plus non-cash items including depreciation and amortization of $4.9 million, minority interest expense of $2.5 million, offset by an increase in net operating assets of $3.5 million, an adjustment to the fair value of investments and long-term receivables of $1.2 million, and earnings from equity investments of $0.6 million . The increase in net operating assets primarily consisted of a $2.8 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilties and a $0.9 million increase in prepaid expenses offset by a $0.2 million decrease in accounts receivable. Settlement of litigation or payment of accrued liabilities in future periods could reduce cash without affecting working capital. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004, COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $13.2 million or $0.19 per share compared to a net loss of $3.2 million or $0.05 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Amortization expenses decreased to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease was largely due to the reduction in Practice Management Agreements resulting from the deconsolidation of Laser Eye Care of California. 32 Net cash provided by operating activities was $19.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The cash flows provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2004 were primarily due to net income of $13.2 million and research and development expenditures of $0.7 million, plus non-cash items including depreciation and amortization of $9.9 million, minority interest expense of $4.3 million, non-cash compensation expense of $0.8 million, and a loss on the disposal of fixed assets of $0.7 million. These increases were offset by an increase in net operating assets of $7.0 million, an adjustment to the fair value of investments and long-term receivables of $1.2 million, a gain on the divestiture of LECC of $1.1 million, and earnings from equity investments of $1.0 million . The increase in net operating assets primarily consisted of a $3.8 million increase in accounts receivable, a $1.7 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and a $1.5 million increase in prepaid expenses. Settlement of litigation or payment of accrued liabilities in future periods could reduce cash without affecting working capital. c) For comparative purposes, the following tables illustrate previously filed financial statements in accordance with both Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP during the respective time periods in 2003. Differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP are described above. 33 TLC VISION CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED) (In thousands of U.S. dollars except per share amounts)
