See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 5 BIOSPECIFICS TECHNOLOGIES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JULY 31, 1997 (UNAUDITED) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION - BioSpecifics Technologies Corp. (the "Company") serves as a holding company for Advance Biofactures Corporation (ABC-New York), Advance Biofactures of Curacao, N.V. and subsidiaries (ABC-Curacao), and Biospecifics Pharma GmbH (Bio Pharma), Germany, which was established in November 1995. The Company, through its subsidiaries, engages in the business of producing and licensing for sale by others a U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") approved enzyme named Collagenase ABC, which is used principally as a topical debridement treatment for dermal ulcers; and researching, developing and clinically testing additional products derived from Collagenase ABC for potential use as pharmaceuticals. The Company currently derives most of its revenues through a license agreement with a major US pharmaceutical company, Knoll Pharmaceutical Company ("KPC"). Since February 1, 1996, sales of Collagenase ABC have been principally to KPC, which markets it as an ointment in the United States under its trademarked name "Collagenase Santyl(R)". The license agreement with KPC expires in 2003. In the event that KPC were to cancel the license agreement for cause, which the Company believes is unlikely, the financial condition of the Company would be materially adversely impacted unless the Company were to find another licensee in the United States. The Company has undertaken efforts to secure licensees outside the United States. The Company has licensing agreements with foreign companies to market collagenase, either as a topical product or an injectable, when permitted by local governmental authorities. The Company sells Collagenase ABC to pharmaceutical companies in Latin America and India, in relatively small amounts. 2. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company's balance sheet as of July 31, 1997, the statements of income for the three and six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996, and statements of cash flows for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for an entire fiscal year, and the results for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in other interim periods. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. 6 3. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE - Net income per common share is based on net income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalent shares outstanding, if dilutive, during the period of presentation. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS No. 128") which is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 128 requires the disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per share. For the periods ended July 31, 1997 and 1996, the amount reported as net income per common and common equivalent share is not materially different than that which would have been reported for basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128. Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information provided by the Company or statements contained in this report or made by its employees, if not historical, is forward looking information which involve uncertainties and risk. The Company cautions readers that important factors may affect the Company's actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Such factors include, but are not limited to, changing market conditions, the impact of competitive products and pricing, the timely development and approval by the FDA and foreign health authorities of potential products, market acceptance of the Company's potential products, and other risks detailed herein and in other filings the Company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, any forward looking statement or statements speak only as of the date on which such statements were made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement or statements were made. The Company incorporates by reference the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in its Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. Three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 ----------------------------------------- NET SALES - Net sales for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $706,616 and $1,150,458 respectively, representing a $442,842 or 39% decrease. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of the Company's Collagenase ABC enzyme product to KPC. Although there can be no assurance, the Company expects higher sales of the product to KPC in the next fiscal quarter. 7 ROYALTIES - Royalties for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $543,775 and $726,844 respectively, representing a $183,069 or 25% decrease. During the three months ended July 31, 1997, KPC announced a price increase for Collagenase Santyl(R), effective the end of July 1996. KPC's customers responded by buying record amounts during June and July 1996, in advance of the price increase. In the subsequent 1996 quarter, sales declined. There was no price increase announced in 1997, and sales of Collagenase Santyl(R) are more consistent quarter to quarter, as reported to the Company by KPC. LICENSE FEES - The Company earned a license fee during the quarter ended July 31, 1996 due to a product distribution agreement with a German pharmaceutical company. There were no license fees earned during the quarter ended July 31, 1997 period. COST OF SALES - Cost of sales for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $249,612 and $454,371 respectively, representing an decrease of $204,759 or 45%, due to lower net sales. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE - Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $390,485 and $356,103 respectively, representing an $34,382 or 10% increase. The increase was primarily due to higher professional fees. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - Research and development ("R&D") expenses for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $491,552 and $404,111 respectively, representing an increase of $87,441 or 22%. The increase was due to the costs associated with advancing clinical trials in the U.S., particularly for Dupuytren's disease and Peyronie's disease. In Europe, clinical trials are underway to support applications for marketing approval for various countries in the European Union. The Company expects R&D expenses to equal or possibly exceed the level incurred in the current quarter. OTHER INCOME - NET - Other income - net for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 was $100,427 and $40,153 respectively. The increase of $60,274 was due primarily to increasing value of fixed income securities held as trading security investments by the Company, resulting from lower interest rates. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES - The provision for income taxes for the three months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 was $24,960 and $272,560 respectively, a decrease of $247,600. The decrease was due to lower profitability of the Company's United States subsidiary, primarily as a result of lower net sales and royalty revenues. The principal reason for the difference between the United States Federal statutory tax rate of 34% and the Company's effective tax rate is due to a 2% income tax rate applicable to earnings of the Company's primary production facility in Curacao. 8 Six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 --------------------------------------- NET SALES - Net sales for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $1,565,426 and $2,000,661 respectively, representing a $435,235 or 22% decrease. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower sales of the Company's Collagenase ABC enzyme product to KPC. Although there can be no assurance, the Company expects higher sales of the product to KPC in the next fiscal quarter. ROYALTIES - Royalties for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $1,138,119 and $1,197,141 respectively, representing a $59,022 or 5% decrease, due to lower sales of Collagenase Santyl(R) in the United States, as reported to the Company by KPC, for reasons explained above. LICENSE FEES - The Company earned a license fee during the six months ended July 31, 1996 due to a product distribution agreement with a German pharmaceutical company. There were no license fees earned in the six month period ended July 31, 1997. COST OF SALES - Cost of sales for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $650,037 and $851,670 respectively, representing a decrease of $201,633 or 24% due to lower net sales as described above. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE - SG&A expenses for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $775,287 and $723,549 respectively, representing a $51,738 or 7% increase. The increase was due primarily to higher professional fees incurred in the more recent six months. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - R&D expenses for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 were $915,509 and $762,587 respectively, representing an increase of $152,922 or 20%. The increase was due to the costs associated with advancing clinical trials in the U.S., particularly for Dupuytren's disease and Peyronie's disease. The Company expects R&D expenses to equal or possibly exceed the level incurred in the current six month period. OTHER INCOME - NET - Other income - net for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 was $162,427 and $68,218 respectively. The increase of $94,209 was due primarily to the increasing value of fixed income securities held as trading security investments by the Company, resulting from lower interest rates. 9 PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES - The provision for income taxes for the six months ended July 31, 1997 and 1996 was $139,220 and $356,210 respectively, a decrease of $216,990. The decrease was due to lower profitability of the Company's United States subsidiary, primarily as a result of lower net sales and royalty revenues, explained previously. The principal reason for the difference between the United States Federal statutory tax rate of 34% and the Company's effective tax rate is due to a 2% income tax rate applicable to earnings of the Company's primary production facility in Curacao. LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION - --------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's primary source of working capital is from operating activities, including sales, royalties, and new license fees. As of July 31, 1997, the Company had working capital of approximately $7,617,000 which included cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of approximately $5,000,000. The principal use of cash during the six months ended July 31, 1996 was approximately $707,000 for operating activities, expenditures for plant, property and equipment of approximately $192,300 and repurchases of Company stock of approximately $233,000. At July 31, 1997 the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures. Although there can be no assurance, management believes that in view of the Company's working capital position and anticipated positive cash flow from operating activities, the Company has sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet its immediate operating needs. The Company believes that cash on hand and cash from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs on an ongoing basis for the foreseeable future. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders - ------------------------------------------------------------ (a.) The annual meeting of stockholders was held July 16, 1997. The purpose of the meeting was to elect two directors of the Company and approve the Company's 1997 Stock Option Plan. (b.) The directors elected at the stockholders' meeting were Thomas L.
