AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) ---------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Summary Financial Information and Results of Operations: In the opinion of Surgical Laser Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company"), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of April 2, 1995 and the results of operations and cash flows for the quarters ended April 2, 1995 and April 3, 1994. Interim Financial Information: While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to prevent misleading information, it is suggested that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's Form 10-K report for the fiscal year ended January 1, 1995, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Interim results for the quarter ended April 2, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 2. Supplemental Cash Flow Information: There were no income taxes paid for the quarters ended April 2, 1995 or April 3, 1994. Interest paid for the quarters ended April 2, 1995 and April 3, 1994 was $156,000 and $167,000, respectively. The following noncash investing and financing activities took place: During the first quarter of 1995, the Company issued additional notes of $299,000 in conjunction with the financing of certain patent litigation. The notes bear interest at annual interest rates ranging from 9.5% to 10%, are payable in monthly installments and are scheduled to be completely repaid between December 1996 and March 1997. For the quarters ended April 2, 1995 and April 3, 1994, $42,000 and $118,000, respectively, of the 8% convertible subordinated notes were converted at the request of the note holders into common stock at a conversion price of $4.50 per share. For the quarter ended April 3, 1994, the Company issued additional common stock of $114,000 in the form of restricted stock awards, for bonuses previously accrued. 3. Net Loss Per Share: Net loss per share has been computed using the weighted average number of 6 common shares outstanding during each period. Common share equivalents have not been considered as they are anti-dilutive. 4. Bank Borrowings: The Company has a $2.75 million line of credit agreement with a bank. The line of credit provides for a $750,000 sub-line for letters of credit. Under its sub-line, SLT issued a letter of credit in the amount of $629,000 in favor of the Montgomery County Industrial Development Corporation (MCIDC) under the terms of the Mortgage and Security Agreement. There were no other borrowings under the line at April 2, 1995. Borrowings on the line are secured by the Company's accounts receivable and inventories and bear interest at the bank's prime rate plus 1/2%. The line expires on June 30, 1996. The Company's line of credit agreement prohibits the declaration or payment of dividends or distributions on any of its capital stock at any time there are outstanding obligations to the bank without prior written consent of the bank. In addition, the agreement requires the Company to maintain a leverage covenant, as defined. 5. Income Taxes: No income tax provision was made for the quarters ended April 2, 1995 or for the comparable quarter in 1994 due to the losses incurred. 6. Segment and Geographic Data: The Company is engaged in one business segment: the design, development, manufacture and marketing of laser products for medical applications. The Company's customers are primarily hospitals and medical centers. Foreign sales, excluding sales to C.R. Bard, represented 23% of net sales in the first quarter of 1995 as compared to 16% in the same period in 1994. Sales to the Company's joint venture (see note 7) were 13% of net sales in the first quarter of 1995. Sales to one customer (C.R. Bard) in the first quarter of 1994 represented 14% of net sales. 7. Investment in MEDIQ PRN/SLT: The Company is a 50% owner of MEDIQ PRN/SLT, a joint venture formed in the third quarter of 1993 to provide rentals of lasers and related equipment to hospitals and other health care providers. The investment in MEDIQ PRN/SLT is accounted for using the equity method and is included in other assets. Sales to MEDIQ PRN/SLT are recorded at an arms-length price. Under the equity method, 50% of the gross profit from the sales to the joint venture is deferred and amortized to income as the related asset is used by the joint venture. The Company's sales to the joint venture were $548,000 and $17,000 for the quarters ended April 2, 1995 and April 3, 1994 respectively. Accounts receivable from sales to MEDIQ PRN/SLT at April 2, 1995 are $1,116,000. 7 ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial - - - - - - - ---------------------------------------------------------- Condition and Results of Operations - - - - - - - ----------------------------------- Results of Operations Net sales for the quarter ended April 2, 1995 of $4,167,000 decreased $498,000 or 10% from the comparable period in 1994. Included in the first quarter of 1994 sales were $666,000 of sales to C.R. Bard Inc. for which there were no corresponding sales in 1995. Net sales of delivery systems increased by 5.2% over the comparable period in 1994, while net sales of Contact Laser Systems, excluding sales to C.R. Bard, were flat compared to the same period last year. Sales in the international marketplace for the quarter ended April 2, 1995 increased 28% over the comparable period last year, while net sales in the domestic markets remained relatively flat. One factor affecting U.S. capital sales in the first quarter of 1995 was market confusion resulting from the introduction by certain companies of a new electrosurgical roller-ball product for use in urology in performing TURPs and prostatectomies. Though these products have not had widespread clinical use and long-term clinical outcomes are not yet available, they have delayed the capital purchasing decisions of some hospitals from which the Company had anticipated sales in the first quarter of 1995. Gross profits for the quarter ended April 2, 1995 of $2,503,000 decreased $330,000, or 12%, from the first quarter of 1994. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 60% compared to 61% in the comparable period of 1994. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was due primarily to the lower volume of sales. Partially offsetting this decrease was the favorable impact of a shift in the mix of laser units sold in favor of self-manufactured units. Operating expenses of $3,648,000, which include $200,000 for expenses incurred in connection with a proposed business combination transaction that was not consummated, increased by $697,000 over the comparable period last year. Product development expenses of $683,000 increased by $221,000, or 48%, over the same period in 1994. The increase is due to the one year renewal, in the third quarter of 1994, of a consulting agreement with the principals of ALST. Additionally the Company incurred higher project related expenses, including personnel related charges in the first quarter of 1995. Selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding the charge of $200,000 incurred for a proposed business combination transaction, increased by $276,000 or 19%, over the comparable period in 1994. Of this increase, general and administrative costs increased by $82,000 over the comparable period in 1994 due to higher legal fees incurred in connection with non-patent related litigation. Additionally, marketing expenses mainly due to international expansion increased by $153,000. Net interest expense for the first quarter of 1995 of $123,000 decreased $25,000 from the comparable period in 1994. The reduction is due primarily to 8 higher interest income earned in the 1995 period and slightly lower interest expense. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3,427,000 at April 2, 1995, of which $100,000 was restricted. In addition, the Company currently has a $2.75 million credit facility with its bank. The facility includes a sub-line for letters of credit of $750,000. Other than for the letter of credit issued in the amount of $629,000, there were no other borrowings outstanding under the line of credit. Borrowings under the line are secured by the Company's accounts receivable and inventories. The credit facility expires on June 30, 1996. Net cash used in operating activities was $506,000 for the first quarter of 1995 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $104,000 for the comparable period in 1994. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities is the result of the increase in the net loss incurred and the higher investment in inventories, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Net cash used in investing activities was $150,000 and $165,000 for the first quarter of 1995 and 1994, respectively. Net cash used in financing activities was $60,000 in the first quarter of 1995 compared to $172,000 in the comparable period in 1994. The reduction was due primarily to lower principal payments on the Company's outstanding debt. Management anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $300,000 in 1995 of which $143,000 was spent in the first quarter. The capital expenditures are mainly for manufacturing and research and development needs and sales demonstration lasers. The Company is not contractually committed to spend the balance of its estimated capital expenditures. Investment in patents (primarily litigation costs) is anticipated to be approximately $400,000 in 1995, of which $7,000 was incurred in the first quarter. Management believes that cash provided by operations and other financing alternatives will be sufficient for these expenditures. Management believes inflation has not had a material effect on operations. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings - - - - - - - -------------------------- For information regarding certain pending lawsuits, reference is made to the Company's Form 10-K, Item 3, for the fiscal year ended January 1, 1995, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is incorporated herein by reference. With regard to the action in the Eastern District against Heraeus LaserSonics, Inc. ("Heraeus") for breach of its Supply Agreement with the Company and other claims, the court granted the Company's motion opposing 9 Heraeus' standing to maintain its counterclaim for declaratory judgment that two of the Company's patents are invalid. Heraeus has filed a motion for reconsideration. The court has pended consideration of this and several other pre-trial motions while the Company and Heraeus attempt in good faith to reach an out-of-court settlement. Discovery is proceeding with regard to the action in the Eastern District against C. R. Bard, Inc. and the Bard Urological Division (collectively, "Bard") for specific performance and/or breach of contract, anticipatory repudiation of a contract, negligent misrepresentation and unfair competition. The Company has filed a motion to join Trimedyne, Inc. ("Trimedyne") and Mr. Marvin Loeb, Trimedyne's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, as defendants in this action for contractual interference and civil conspiracy, which Bard has opposed. The court has taken the motion under advisement. Various preliminary motions have been filed, and discovery is proceeding, with regard to the action for patent infringement filed against the Company by Trimedyne and Royice Everett in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The Company has filed a motion to bifurcate the liability portion of the case from the damages portion, which Trimedyne has opposed. The Company believes that is has meritorius defenses and will assert such defenses vigorously. With regard to the suit against the Company brought by Norio Daikuzono, the inventor of three of the Company's Contact Laser , patents for breach of contract, and related claims, filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, the Company has filed a motion to dismiss that action for failure to state claims upon which relief may be granted. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, however, are liberal in allowing complaints to be amended so that claims for relief may be properly stated by the plaintiff and put in a form to which an answer may be given. No date for a ruling on the Company's motion to dismiss has been set. The Compnay believes that Mr. Daikuzono's suit is without merit. The Company will assert its defenses in this suit in a vigorous manner, as well. ITEM 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K - - - - - - - ------------------------------------------ a.
