Page 4 5 HYCOR BIOMEDICAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2000 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the results of operations and the cash flows for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. These statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and may be subject to year-end adjustments. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's 1999 annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain items in the 1999 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, while diluted EPS additionally includes the dilutive effect of the Company's outstanding options and warrants computed using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS in loss periods as the impact is anti-dilutive. 2. INVENTORIES Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Cost includes material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. Inventories at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 consist of: 6/30/00 12/31/99 ---------- ---------- Raw materials $ 932,814 $ 868,876 Work in process 1,576,023 1,392,527 Finished goods 1,840,688 2,007,898 ---------- --------- $4,349,525 $4,269,301 ========== ========== 3. LONG TERM DEBT The Company has a line of credit that provides for borrowings up to $2,000,000 and expires on July 31, 2001. The loan is collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable, inventories, and property, plant, and equipment. At June 30, 2000, $1,000,000 was outstanding. Advances under the line bear interest at the prime rate or at LIBOR plus 2% (8.4% at June 30, 2000). Page 5 6 The line of credit contains restrictive covenants, the most significant of which relate to the maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, debt-to-tangible net worth requirements, and liquid assets plus accounts receivable-to-current liabilities requirements. At June 30, 2000, the Company was in compliance with such covenants. At June 30, 2000 the Company had outstanding notes in the amount of $525,000. These notes were issued to the seller group in executing the acquisition of Cogent Diagnostics LTD in July 1997. Interest on the notes accrued at a rate of 6.85% and was payable quarterly. The principal balance on these notes was paid in July 2000. In addition, the Company and one of its foreign subsidiaries has long-term debt, payable to financial institutions, aggregating approximately $111,000 at June 30, 2000 with weighted average interest rate of approximately 9%. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL This Section and this entire report contain forward-looking statements and include assumptions concerning the Company's operations, future results and prospects. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors. In connection with the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company provides the following cautionary statements identifying important factors which, among other things, could cause the actual results and events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions contained in this Section and in this entire Report. Such factors include, but are not limited to, product demand and market acceptance risks; the effect of economic conditions; the impact of competitive products and pricing; product development; commercialization and technological difficulties; capacity and supply constraints or difficulties; availability of capital resources; general business and economic conditions, including currency risks based on the relative strength or weakness of the U.S. dollar, euro conversions, and changes in government laws and regulations, including taxes. While the Company has returned to profitability it still needs additional sales and marketing resources. To help in managing the opportunities ahead of us, the Company engaged the services of investment banking firm Prudential Vector Healthcare Group to act as an intermediary in negotiations involving the Company and potential strategic partnerships or M&A opportunities. Prudential Vector Healthcare Group, a unit of Prudential Securities Incorporated, is one of the largest investment banking groups focused exclusively on the healthcare industry. LIQUIDITY The Company has adequate working capital and sources of capital to carry on its current business and to meet its existing and expected future capital requirements. As of June 30, 2000 the Company increased its working capital approximately $656,000 when compared to December 31, 1999, as a result of normal operations. Page 6 7 The Company's principal capital commitments are for lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases and note payments related to the acquisition of Cogent. Additionally, the HY-TEC(TM) business requires the purchase of instruments that in many cases are placed in use in laboratories of the Company's direct customers and paid for over an agreed contract period by the purchase of test reagents. This "reagent rental" sales program, common to the diagnostic market, creates negative cash flows in the initial years. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, sales decreased approximately $338,000 or 7.3% and $471,000 or 5.0%, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. In periods when the U.S. dollar is strengthening, the translation impact on the financial statements of the consolidated foreign affiliates is that of lower sales, costs, and net income. The stronger U.S. dollar in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 resulted in lower reported sales of approximately $108,000 or 2.5% and $200,000 or 2.2%, respectively, when compared to the corresponding 1999 periods. In addition, a new reimbursement system in Germany has affected our customers there and resulted in what we expect to be a temporary decrease in sales. Also, continued cost control pressures in the health care industry affect the Company's revenue. The Company anticipates that these pricing pressures will continue in the future. Gross profit as a percentage of product sales increased for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 from approximately 51.8% to 58.0% and 50.9% to 55.8%, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. This increase was due primarily to changes in the product mix and improved manufacturing efficiencies. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 approximately $71,000 or 3.7% and $222,000 or 5.9%, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. The reductions are due primarily as a result of restructuring the European sales and marketing organization. Additional decreases are the result of non-recurring expenses during 1999. Research and development costs decreased for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 approximately $134,000 or 23.1% and $234,000 or 21.0%, respectively, when compared to the same periods last year. This decrease is primarily due to the completion of several projects related to the HY-TEC 288 instrument system and related diagnostic tests. Effective with the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company adopted a position wherein a 100% valuation allowance was taken against all deferred tax assets. The tax provision for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 reflects the provision for estimated federal and state tax liabilities that are not offset by operating losses.
