Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 2, 1999. THE ASSET SALE: On December 8, 1999, BEI completed the sale of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company to CooperSurgical Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("CSAC"), for approximately $10.5 million in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 1, 1999, between the Company and CSAC, as amended (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") (the "Asset Sale"). The assets sold constitute a business of developing, manufacturing, marketing and servicing a broad array of advanced systems and devices for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the medical fields of gynecology and gastroenterology (the "Base Business"). Following the Asset Sale, the Company is focusing exclusively on developing a new therapeutic system, the Hydro ThermAblator(R) (the "HTA(R)") for treatment of excessive uterine bleeding. The cash consideration received at the closing of the Asset Sale was $10,538,000, subject to certain net post-closing adjustments estimated to be approximately $374,000 payable by the Company to CSAC reflecting lower than estimated amounts of accounts receivable and inventory as of the closing date. The consideration received by the Company also included the assumption of $331,000 of specified liabilities, the assumption of liabilities under certain contracts of the Company, and the forgiveness of royalty payments that may in the future have been owed by the Company to an affiliate of CSAC in an amount of up to $100,000. In addition, as a condition to the consummation of the Asset Sale, the Company entered into a noncompetition agreement with and for the benefit of CSAC for a period of five years. The Company recorded a net gain on the sale of the Base Business of approximately $1,913,000. The key components of the gain are as follows: Dollars in thousands Proceeds $10,164(1) Less: estimated transaction costs (1,293)(2) ----------------- Estimated net proceeds 8,871 Less: net assets sold (6,958) ----------------- Gain on Asset Sale $1,913 ================= (1) Reflects proceeds from the Asset Sale received at closing of $10,538,000, less estimated post-closing adjustments of $374,000. 6 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued BEI Medical Systems Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Unaudited) July 1, 2000 (2) Transaction costs of $1,293,000 include estimated professional fees to be paid by BEI in connection with the Asset Sale ($524,000), employee bonuses related to completion of the Asset Sale ($186,000), estimated severance payments and other costs ($308,000), and the cost of products and services provided to CSAC free of charge ($275,000) pursuant to the Transition Agreement dated December 8, 1999 between the Company and CSAC. The net assets of the Base Business as of the closing on December 8, 1999 and as of October 2, 1999 are reflected in the table below. The net assets of the Base Business as of October 2, 1999, which totaled $7,282,000, are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as net assets held for sale:

Weighted shares excluded unvested restricted stock, which amounted to 64,000 and 151,000 shares at July 1, 2000, and July 3, 1999, respectively. Common stock equivalents are excluded from loss per share for all periods presented because the effect would be anti-dilutive. Note 4 Notes Payable The Company signed an agreement, effective as of May 7, 1999, with Transamerica Business Credit Corporation ("TBCC") to provide senior secured financing. TBCC provided the Company with a revolving credit facility under which the Company could from time to time borrow an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of $1,000,000 or an amount equal to 85% of the amount of the Company's eligible accounts receivable as defined in the agreement (the "Revolving Loan"). In addition to the Revolving Loan, TBCC provided the Company with a term loan (the "Term Loan") in the amount of $1,000,000 on May 7, 1999 bearing interest at a rate of 14.14%. On November 1, 1999, the Company borrowed $500,000 under the Revolving Loan. All borrowings under the TBCC agreement were collateralized by all of the assets of the Company. Concurrent with the above transaction, the Company provided TBCC with a seven-year warrant to purchase 92,308 shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.625 per share, subject to adjustment. The warrant is currently exercisable. As a result of the Asset Sale, both the Term Loan and the Revolving Loan were repaid in full on December 8, 1999 and all of the related agreements were terminated. Cancellation fees aggregating $85,000 were incurred in connection with such termination. Such fees, as well as the unamortized portion of the deferred financing fees for the debt of $45,000, have been reflected as an extraordinary loss in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. 10 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this section, and those discussed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended October 2, 1999. The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations reflect historical results both prior to and subsequent to the Asset Sale. The Asset Sale has had a significant impact upon the financial condition and results of operations of the Company, as both revenues and revenue generating assets have been significantly reduced (see Note 1 to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company's product focus has become narrowed and dependent upon the successful completion of the FDA Phase III clinical trials involving the HTA and commercialization of the HTA technology. The cash proceeds of the Asset Sale have been and will be utilized by BEI: (i) to pay expenses associated with the Asset Sale in the approximate amount of $1,293,000; (ii) to repay the amounts outstanding to TBCC including interest and cancellation fees; (iii) as working capital to finance completion of the FDA Phase III clinical trials and initiate commercialization of the HTA product in the United States; and (iv) to fund BEI's ongoing operating expenses. Three Months Ended July 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999 Revenues for the three months ended July 1, 2000, were $43,000, a decrease of $2,304,000 from the comparable three month period of fiscal 1999. The lower revenue reflects the impact of the Asset Sale on December 8, 1999. Approximately 95.1% of the Company's revenues for the quarter ended July 3, 1999, were derived from products that were included in the Base Business sold to CSAC. International revenues from shipments to distributors of the Company's HTA system for endometrial ablation declined to $43,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 from $115,000 in the comparable quarter of fiscal 1999. The higher revenue in fiscal 1999 reflects shipments to international distributors of instrumentation primarily for use in clinical demonstrations and symposia and represents limited commercial shipments to private health care services and end-users that were not repeated in fiscal 2000, while shipments in fiscal 2000 were primarily disposable kits which are used each time the procedure is performed. Gross profit was negative $183,000 for the three months ended July 1, 2000, reflecting the absorption of fixed manufacturing overhead expenditures combined with the lower revenue. The decline in gross profit compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1999 reflects the impact of the Asset Sale. Selling, general and administrative expenses declined $918,000 to $951,000 for the three months ended July 1, 2000 compared to $1,869,000 for the comparable period in fiscal 1999. The decline in expenses reflects lower sales and marketing costs of $643,000, representing a 66% decline, due to reductions in personnel and related employee benefit costs, lower sales commissions and reduced marketing expenditures following the Asset Sale; lower administrative expenses of $189,000, representing a 25% decline, due primarily to reduced spending on legal fees and other outside services and lower charges for the amortization of intangible assets of $69,000, representing a 60% decline, following the transfer of intangible assets to CSAC as part of the Asset Sale. Research, development and related expenses were $553,000, a decline of $349,000 from the comparable period of fiscal 1999. The reduced spending resulted from the completion 11 of the patient treatment portion of the HTA Phase III clinical trials in the United States in early August 1999, so the rate of spending required to support the clinical trials in fiscal 2000 has declined from the levels that were required during the patient treatment phase in fiscal 1999. Interest income increased to $87,000 in the three month period ended July 1, 2000 compared to $25,000 in the three month period ended July 3, 1999, as a result of higher average cash balances on hand during the quarter which reflected the investment of cash received from the Asset Sale. The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $299,000 for the three month period ended July 1, 2000 compared to $107,000 recognized in the comparable quarter of fiscal 1999. The income tax benefit in fiscal 2000 resulted from the favorable settlement of a disputed tax item related to the spin-off of BEI Technologies, Inc. in September of 1997. The income tax benefit in fiscal 1999 reflected the Company's ability to carryback losses and collect a refund against prior years' taxes paid on the earnings of previously discontinued operations. The amount of carryback available to the Company was limited to the taxes paid on earnings of the previous two fiscal years. There is no remaining carryback available to the Company after fiscal year 1999. The Company projects losses to continue in fiscal year 2000. These losses remain available to the Company on a carryforward basis to offset any future earnings, but they have been fully offset by a valuation allowance in the financial statements, as their future realization is uncertain. Nine Months Ended July 1, 2000 and July 3, 1999 Revenues for the nine month period ended July 1, 2000, were $1,313,000, a decrease of $5,199,000 from the comparable nine month period of fiscal 1999. The lower revenue reflects the impact of the Asset Sale on December 8, 1999. Approximately 96.0% of the Company's revenues for the period ended July 3, 1999 were derived from products that were included in the Base Business sold to CSAC. The nine month period of fiscal year 2000 included revenues from the Base Business for approximately nine weeks compared to thirty-nine weeks in the comparable period of fiscal year 1999. International revenues from shipments to distributors of the Company's HTA products for endometrial ablation declined to $129,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 from $260,000 in the comparable period of fiscal 1999. The higher revenue in fiscal 1999 reflects shipments to international distributors of instrumentation primarily for use in clinical demonstrations and symposia and represents limited commercial shipments to private health care services and end-users that were not repeated in fiscal 2000, while shipments in fiscal 2000 were primarily disposable kits which are used each time the procedure is preformed. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues declined to 3.0% in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared to 40.5% for the comparable period in fiscal 1999. The decline reflects the impact of the Asset Sale and the resulting absorption of fixed manufacturing overhead expenditures over a lower revenue base. Selling, general and administrative expenses declined $2,176,000 to $3,238,000 for the nine month period ended July 1, 2000 compared to $5,414,000 for the comparable period in fiscal 1999. The decline in expenses reflects lower sales and marketing costs of $1,758,000, representing a 61% decline, resulting from the Asset Sale and the resulting reduction in revenue related expenditures for personnel, employee benefits, commissions and other marketing costs; lower administrative expenses of $260,000, representing a 12% decline, and lower amortization of intangible assets of $253,000, representing a 69% decline. These decreases were partially offset by the write down 12 of the carrying value certain fixed assets and accounts receivable to their estimated net realizable value following the Asset Sale of $139,000. The increase in the selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the first nine months of fiscal year 2000 compared to the first nine months of fiscal year 1999 reflects the impact of the Asset Sale and the lower revenue on the fixed portion of selling, general and administrative expenditures. Research, development and related expenses were $1,280,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2000 compared to $2,485,000 for the same period of fiscal 1999. The reduced spending resulted from the completion of the patient treatment portion of the HTA Phase III clinical trials in the United States in early August 1999, so the rate of spending required to support the clinical trials in fiscal 2000 has declined from the levels that were required during the patient treatment phase in fiscal 1999. The gain on asset sale reflects the closing of the Asset Sale on December 8, 1999. The Company is now focusing exclusively on developing its new therapeutic system, the HTA, for treatment of excessive uterine bleeding. The cash consideration received at the closing of the Asset Sale was approximately $10,538,000, subject to certain net post-closing adjustments estimated to be approximately $374,000 payable by the Company to CSAC reflecting lower than estimated amounts of accounts receivable and inventory as of the closing date. The consideration received by the Company also included the assumption of $331,000 of specified liabilities, the assumption of liabilities under certain contracts of the Company, and the forgiveness of royalty payments that may in the future have been owed by the Company to an affiliate of CSAC in an amount of up to $100,000. In addition, as a condition to the consummation of the Asset Sale, the Company entered into a noncompetition agreement with CSAC for a period of five years. See Note 1 to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the Asset Sale. Interest income increased to $227,000 in the nine month period ended July 1, 2000 compared to $88,000 in the nine month period ended July 3, 1999, as a result of higher average cash balances on hand during the period which reflected the investment of cash received from the Asset Sale. Interest expense increased to $50,000 in fiscal 2000 compared to $29,000 for the comparable period of fiscal 1999 as a result of the borrowings under the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan and related credit facility with TBCC, which the Company repaid in full on December 8, 1999, utilizing a portion of the proceeds of the Asset Sale. The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $299,000 for the nine month period ended July 1, 2000 compared to $315,000 recognized in the comparable period of fiscal 1999. The income tax benefit in fiscal 2000 resulted from the favorable settlement of a disputed tax item related to the spin-off of BEI Technologies, Inc. in September of 1997. The income tax benefit in fiscal 1999 reflected the Company's ability to carryback losses and collect a refund against prior years' taxes paid on the earnings of previously discontinued operations. The amount of carryback available to the Company was limited to the taxes paid on earnings of the previous two fiscal years. There is no remaining carryback available to the Company after fiscal year 1999. The net operating losses from fiscal year 1999 and the first nine months of fiscal 2000 that cannot be carried back against prior years' earnings are approximately $9.1 million. The Company projects losses to continue in fiscal year 2000. These losses would remain available to the Company on a carryforward basis to offset any future earnings, but they have been fully offset by a valuation allowance in the financial statements, as their future realization is uncertain. 13 The extraordinary loss on extinguishment of debt reflects that as a result of the Asset Sale, both the Term Loan and the Revolving Loan were repaid in full on December 8, 1999 (see Note 3 to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Cancellation fees aggregating $85,000 were incurred in connection with such termination. Such fees, as well as the unamortized portion of the deferred financing fees for the debt of $45,000, have been reflected as an extraordinary loss in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's capital requirements to complete the development and commercialization of the HTA depend on numerous factors including the timing of the expected receipt of regulatory clearances and approvals, the resources required to initiate commercialization of the HTA in the United States and the extent the HTA gains market acceptance and sales. The timing and amount of such capital requirements cannot be predicted accurately. The Company believes that the net proceeds from the Asset Sale plus existing cash balances will provide adequate funding to meet the Company's capital requirements for the next twelve months. The Company is considering options to secure additional financing at this time. There can be no assurance that the Company will not require additional financing sooner than twelve months from now or that additional financing will be available on terms attractive to the Company, or at all. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants. During the first nine months of fiscal year 2000, cash used by operations was $3,549,000 due to the net loss for the period of $2,220,000 plus the gain on the Asset Sale of $1,913,000 partially offset by noncash charges of $420,000 and decreases in working capital of $164,000. Cash provided by investing activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2000 was $8,855,000, reflecting $8,871,000 of proceeds from the Asset Sale partially offset by purchases of plant and equipment of $16,000. Cash provided by financing activities during the first nine months of fiscal year 2000 consisted of $500,000 from the Revolving Loan on November 1, 1999. Cash used in financing activities for this period consisted of $1,500,000 to repay both the Revolving Loan and Term Loan. For further information, see Note 4 to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company had no material capital or other commitments as of July 1, 2000. Effects of Inflation Management believes that, for the periods presented, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company's operations. 14 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 5.
