SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULE OF NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES:

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002:

There were no non-cash investing and financing activities in the first six months of the year 2002.

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003:

1)The Company issued stock options pursuant to its 2003 executive and employee stock option plan to directors and certain employees to purchase 525,000 shares of the Company's common stock at the bid price when granted. The options give the recipients the right to purchase the shares for 10 years.

2)The Company cancelled 142,575 shares that were held in trust where the trust was no longer valid.

3)The Company evaluated certain intangible assets and found that they no longer had sales potential. The Company has written off these assets which had net book value of $20,750.

4)The Company charged capital in excess for a liability to the former shareholders of Aaron Medical which was a result of a recission offer made to the Aaron shareholders in 1996. This liability was due to certain Aaron shareholders who had received shares of An-Con Genetics (predecessor to Bovie) but had not responded to the recission offer. An investigation showed these shareholders had either 1) sold the shares, 2) increased their holdings or moved the stock to street name. Based on the above the Company believes it no longer has a obligation to these shareholders.

Repair Parts. The Company acquired the inventory of repair parts in conjunction with the purchase of the Bovie line of generators and Bovie trade name, on May 8, 1998. The Company has maintained the inventory to service the previously sold generators. The useful life of repair parts is estimated to be five to seven years and the Company has set up an allowance for excess and obsolete parts.

As of June 30, 2003, the inventory of parts was as follows:

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived and assets consist of property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets.

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are accounted for on the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives. The amortization of leasehold improvements is based on the shorter of the lease term or the life of the improvement. Betterment and large renewals, which extend the life of the asset, are capitalized whereas maintenance and repairs and small renewals are expenses, as incurred. The estimated useful lives are: machinery and equipment, 7-15 years; buildings, 30 years; and leasehold improvements; 10-20 years.

Intangible assets consist of patent rights and goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of assets of the acquired companies over the values assigned to net tangible assets. These intangibles are being amortized by the straight-line method over a 5 to 20 year period.

Long-Lived Assets (Continued)

Long-lived and assets consist of property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets. (Continued)

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recovered. The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets held, and to be used, based on undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment, if any, using discounted cash flows.

Revenue Recognition and Product Warranty

Revenue from sales of products is generally recognized upon shipment to customers. The Company warrants its products for one year. The estimated future costs of warranties have been determined on past experience not to be material.

Income is recognized in the financial statements (and the customer billed) when products are shipped from stock. Net sales are arrived at by deducting discounts from and adding freight charged to customers to gross sales.

Environmental Remediation

The Company accrues environmental remediation costs if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability incurred at the financial statement date and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Environmental compliance costs are expenses, as incurred. Certain environmental costs would be capitalized if incurred based on estimates and depreciated over their useful lives.

Earnings Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

Basic Earnings Per Shares are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted Earnings Per Share shall be computed by including contingently issuable shares with the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. When inclusion of the contingently issuable shares would have an antidilutive effect upon earnings per share no diluted earnings per share shall be presented.

Research and Development Costs

Only the development costs that are purchased from another enterprise and have alternative future use are capitalized and amortized over five years.

Income Taxes

The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Aaron Medical Industries, Inc. file a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Non-monetary Transactions

The accounting for non-monetary assets is based on the fair values of the assets involved. Cost of a non-monetary asset acquired in exchange for another non-monetary asset is recorded at the fair value of the asset surrendered to obtain it. The difference in the costs of the assets exchanged is recognized as a gain or loss. The fair value of the asset received is used to measure the cost, if it is more clearly evident than the fair value of asset surrendered.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 148 and Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 for its accounting for stock based compensation. Under this policy:

1. Compensation costs are recognized as an expense over the period of employment attributable to the employee stock options.

2. Shares issued in accordance with a plan for past or future services of an employee are allocated between the expired costs and future costs. Future costs are charged to the periods in which the services are performed. The pro forma amounts of the difference between compensation cost included in net income, and related cost, measured by the fair value based method including tax effects, are disclosed.

New Accounting Standards

Effective February 3, 2002 the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. SFAS No. 142 requires that ratable amortization of goodwill be replaced by periodic tests for impairment within six months of the date of adoption, and then on a periodic basis thereafter. Based on the impairment testing performed in February 2003, management determined that there was no impairment loss related to the net carrying value of the Company’s recorded goodwill.

New Accounting Standards (Continued)

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, which provides accounting requirements for retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets. SFAS No. 143 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 has not had a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. This statement addresses accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, other than goodwill, including discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management has determined that the adoption of SFAS No. 144 has had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections”. SFAS No. 145 primarily affects the reporting requirements and classification of gains and losses from the extinguishments of debt, rescinds the transitional accounting requirements for intangible assets of motor carriers, and requires that certain lease modifications with economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions be accounted for in the same manner as sale-leaseback transactions. SFAS No. 145 is effective for financial statements issued after April 2002, with the exception of the provisions affecting the accounting for lease transactions, which should be applied for transactions entered into after May 15, 2002, and the provisions affecting classification of gains and losses from the extinguishments of debt, which should be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. Management has determined that the adoption of SFAS No. 145 will have no immediate impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but will evaluate in future periods the classification of any debt extinguishments costs in accordance with APB Opinion No. 30 “Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions”.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”. SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred, rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Examples of costs covered by the standard include lease termination costs and certain employee severance costs that are associated with a restructuring, discontinued operation, plant closing, or other exit or disposal activity. Previous accounting guidance was provided by Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". SFAS No. 146 replace EITF No. 94-3, and are required to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2002 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”. FIN No. 45 clarifies and expands on existing disclosure requirements for guarantees, and clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of the guarantee, a liability equal to the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of FIN No. 45 are applicable on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN No. 45 are effective for financial statements issued after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted FIN No. 45 during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2002 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial Statements.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of Statement No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS No. 148 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2002. Accordingly, the Company has started making the disclosures required by SFAS No. 148 beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51". FIN No. 46 requires unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse the risks and rewards of ownership among their owners and other parties involved. The provisions of FIN No. 46 are applicable immediately to all variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and variable interest entities in which a company obtains an interest after that date. For variable interest entities created before January 31, 2003, the provisions of this interpretation are effective July 1, 2003. Management is currently evaluating the provisions of this interpretation, and does not believe that it will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations – Six Months Ended June 30, 2003

The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 show increased sales and increased profitability, as compared to the first six months of 2002. As part of 2002‘s operating revenues, a one-time development fee of $177,500 was included which was not considered in determining the gross profit percentage. The Company’s sales revenues increased by 29%, from $6,231,467 to $8,039,902. Gross profit percentage of 44% was up from 41% for the same period in 2002. The reason for the 3% increase in gross profit was that as electrosurgical sales grow indirect manufacturing overhead associated costs remains relatively constant. Overall margins will likely increase as sales increase even though margins on electrosurgical products are less than other product margins. Gross profit increased from $2,543,102 in 2002 to $3,534,533 in 2003. Increased gross profit was mainly attributable to increased sales of electrosurgical devices. For the first six months of 2003 and 2002, cauteries accounted for 29% and 39% of sales, respectively. For the same period, electrosurgical devices accounted for 42% and 28% of sales, respectively.

Operating salaries and related expenses had increased 19% and went from $648,222 to $771,354 in the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. The main reason for the increase was in the area of customer service and employee training.

Research and development costs decreased by $13,614 or 3% from $502,078 to $488,464 from the six months ended 2002 to the six months ending June 30, 2003. The high cost of research and development are mainly attributable to engineering costs on new generator models being developed and the cost of the continued development of the J-Plasma device.

Expenses for professional services increased by $26,878 or14% to $214,931 in the six months ended June 30, 2003, as compared to $188,053 in the same period of the previous year. The main reason for this increase was professional fees associated with legal matters, audit of the year 2002 and consulting services.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased by $224,047 or 17%. These expenses were $1,292,374 in the six month period ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $1,516,421 for the six months ended June, 2003. The increase was mainly attributable to the expense of additional personnel, advertising promotions and the disposition of unmarketable inventory of products.

Interest expense net of interest income, increased from $21,980 in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $22,659 in 2003. The largest part of the interest the Company pays is on its building mortgage and its line of credit.

The operating gain was $543,363 in the first six months of 2003 as compared to an operating loss of $87,625 in the same period in 2002. An increase in operating profit of $630,988 or 720%.

The Company had a net gain of $520,704 for the six months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to net loss of $109,605 in 2002 for the same period. The most significant reason for the increase in income of $630,309 for the six months of 2003 from the first six months of 2002 was an increase in OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) sales of the companies generators.

Results of Operations (continued)

The Company sells its products mostly through distributors OEM agreements and, independent representatives who service the distributors, both in the international market and in the USA. Distributors are contacted through response to company advertising in international medical journals or at domestic or international trade shows. The main focus for export sales has been Western Europe.

The Company has distributors in all major markets in Europe and is expanding into the Far East. The Company intends to continue marketing its products internationally by concentrating on major markets for increased market exposure and the introduction of new products.

During the first six months of 2003, international sales increased by $36,875. These sales were $1,259,523, which represented 15% of total sales, while in 2002 total international sales were $1,222,648 and 20% of total sales. The Company is ISO 9001 certified.

Results of Operations - Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2003

Sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2003 were 4,369,848 as compared to $3,202,868 for the same period in 2002, an increase of $1,166,980 or 36%. The increase was mainly attributed to increased sales of electro surgical products.

Cost of goods sold increased from $1,983,853 to $2,398,378 an increase of $414,525 or 21% for the three month period ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the period in 2002.

Outlook

The statements contained in this Outlook are based on current expectations. These statements are forward looking, and actual results may differ materially.

The Company has continued to expand its line of electrosurgery products which include the standard stainless steel electrodes, the Bovie/Aaron 800, Bovie/Aaron 900, Bovie/Aaron 950, Bovie/Aaron 1250, and the Aaron 2250 high frequency generators. Pursuant to perceived market demands, the Company has developed and is currently marketing the Bovie IDS 300-Watt and Bovie IDS 200-Watt digital generators under the newly formed Bovie sales division.

From the first six months of 2002 to the first six months of 2003, the Company’s electrosurgical sales increased by $2,165,901 or 99% from $2,184,757 to $4,350,658. This increase was mainly attributable to contract purchasers. With the introduction of new electrosurgical products, the Company expects electrosurgical sales to increase significantly in 2003. The Company, through its private label capability, anticipates new opportunities in the domestic market. The electrosurgical product market is larger than the Company’s traditional market and is dominated by two main competitors, ValleyLab and Conmed. The Company believes combined markets for these products exceeds $500 million worldwide, annually.

The Company believes that the world market for disposable medical products, including the Company’s battery-operated cauteries continued to have growth potential domestically and abroad. Accordingly, the Company has designed certain disposable products to be reusable. The Company presently has a significant portion of the U.S. cautery market and expects moderate growth in sales of cautery-related products to continue.

Non-Medical Products

Sales of the Company flexible lighting products had been on the decline for several years. In 2002, the Company sales of these products, used primarily in the automotive and locksmith industries, totaled $736,758. One customer accounted for $561,276 (77%) of such sales.

Sales for the first six months of 2003 and 2002 of industrial lighting products was $282,012 and $380,701, respectively. In May of 2003 the Company executed an exclusive license agreement with its largest customer of industrial lighting products to transfer its technology and manufacturing capability to that customer for a royalty fee of $8,250 per month for five years. The Company will no longer sell industrial lighting products.

Scientific Advisory Board

On July 8, 2003, The Company announced the formation of a scientific advisory board to assist in the advancement of new products and technologies. The advisory board includes: Yuval Carmel, Ph. D., Peter M. Pardoll, MD and Mr. Gregory Konesky.

Reliance on Collaborative, Manufacturing and Selling Arrangements

The Company is dependent on certain contractual partners for manufacturing and product development. Should a collaborative partner fail to develop and manufacture products., the Company’s future business and value of related assets could be negatively affected. No assurance can be given that a collaborative partner may give sufficient high priority to the Company’s products. In addition, disagreements or disputes may arise between the Company and its contractual partners which could adversely affect production of its products.

Liquidity and Future Plans

The Company’s focus is to acquire, develop, and manufacture new product technologies and to expand its manufacturing capabilities.

In order to increase international sales growth and maintain its ability to sell in Europe, the Company has been certified as ISO9001/EN46001 quality system compliant and has been granted its CE mark (International Quality Control.)

In December 2001, the Company satisfied its first mortgage on the building it owns in St. Petersburg, Florida and replaced it with a new first mortgage from its prime lender in the amount of $475,000.

BOVIE MEDICAL CORPORATION

The Company’s future results of operations and the other forward-looking statements contained herein particularly the statements regarding growth in the medical products industry, capital spending, research and development, and marketing and general and administrative expenses, involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In addition to the factors discussed above, other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, are the following: business conditions and the general economy; competitive factors such as rival manufacturers’ availability of products at reasonable prices; risk of nonpayment of accounts receivable; risks associated with foreign operations; and litigation involving intellectual property and consumer issues.

The management of Bovie Medical Corporation believes that it has the product mix, facilities, personnel, and competitive and financial resources for business success, but future revenues, costs, margins, product mix and profits are all subject to the influence of a number of factors, as discussed above.
