Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of

Bio-logic Systems Corp.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bio-logic Systems Corp. and subsidiaries as of February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended February 28, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Bio-logic Systems Corp. and subsidiaries as of February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended February 28, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Bio-logic Systems Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003

1. Business

Bio-logic Systems Corp. (the “Company”) develops and markets computer-assisted medical diagnostic equipment. The Company sells primarily to the health care industry in North America, Europe and the Far East.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly owned domestic subsidiary, Bio-logic Holding Inc., and its wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Bio-logic Systems Corp., Ltd. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less.

Concentration of Credit Risk—The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions located in the United States, Israel and Poland. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. Cash in foreign bank accounts is not insured. Uninsured balances aggregate approximately $15,174,000 and $12,895,000 at February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable—The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from companies in the medical and health care industries. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition. New non-institutional customers are generally subject to a deposit. Accounts receivable are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, and are generally due within 30 days for domestic customers and 60 days for international customers. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due and the Company’s previous loss history. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectable, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Charges for doubtful accounts are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Inventories—Inventories, consisting principally of components, parts and supplies, are stated at the lower of cost, determined by the first-in first-out method, or market.

Property, Plant and Equipment—Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred, and significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three years to forty years.

Intangible Assets—Intangible assets consist primarily of capitalized software costs for research and development, as well as certain patent, trademark and license costs. Capitalized software development costs are recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards(“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed,” with costs being amortized using the straight-line method over a five-year period. Patent, trademark and license costs are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five years. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the valuation of intangible assets to determine if there has been impairment by comparing the related assets’ carrying value to the undiscounted estimated future cash flows and/or operating income from related operations.

For the Years Ended February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003

 

Long-Lived Assets—The Company regularly reviews long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” No impairment was realized for the fiscal years 2005, 2004 and 2003.

Other Assets—Other assets consist mainly of long-term trade receivables. Any required reserves for long-term trade receivables are recorded as part of the allowance for doubtful accounts. There are currently no reserve requirements for long-term receivables.

Other Receivables— Other receivables at February 28, 2005 consist primarily of an amount related to the partial reimbursement of expenses associated with certain corporate development activities that was subsequently received in fiscal 2006. Other receivables at February 29, 2004 consist of a medical claim that was settled with the Company’s stop-loss insurance carrier during fiscal 2005.

Revenue Recognition—The Company derives revenue from the sales of electrodiagnostic systems, disposable supplies, extended warranty contracts, non-warranty repair, and governmental research and development contracts. With the exception of domestic customers associated with certain group purchasing contracts, the terms of sale for systems and related supplies are generally FOB shipping point.

Domestically, the Company sells its neurology and sleep systems through a direct sales force, and uses a dealer network to sell its hearing screening and diagnostic systems. Internationally, the entire line of electrodiagnostic systems and supplies is sold through distributors located in various countries. There is no general right for a customer, dealer or distributor to return product. All sales are final, regardless of the distribution channel; returns are rare and are usually allowed due to order error or quality concerns.

The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned, in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition; specifically, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Set-up and training revenue related to system sales is not recognized until the service is completed. Revenue from the performance of non-warranty repair activities is recognized in the period in which the work is performed. Revenue from extended warranty contracts is recognized over the life of the warranty.

Revenue from research and development contracts relate to governmental grants awarded by the National Institute of Health. The grant covers reimbursement of specific expenses related to the feasibility and development of projects for which the grants were given, and the Company recognizes revenue in the same period the qualifying costs are incurred. The Company’s obligation is to perform these feasibility and development activities in accordance with the terms of the grant, with no obligation for the work to result in a successful outcome such as a new product or successful discovery.

The Company carries a sales reserve that reduces revenue for potential future product returns as well as unperformed set-up and training, and reviews its adequacy quarterly. To date, this reserve has been insignificant.

Advertising—Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Research and Development Costs—Research and development (R&D) costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized research and development costs reflect internally generated software development costs associated with bringing new products to market, or significantly adding new features and functions to existing products. Accounting for the capitalization of software development costs is in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, Or Otherwise Marketed; specifically, (a) R&D costs incurred in determining technological feasibility are expensed; (b) all material costs from the point where

technological feasibility is determined up to the point when the product is available for general release to customers are capitalized; and (c) capitalization ceases when the developed product is available for general release to customers.

Income Taxes—Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the years in which the differences are expected to become recoverable. A valuation allowance is established where necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Deferred Federal income taxes are not provided for the undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiary. Undistributed foreign earnings were $2,913,835 and $2,876,107 as of February 28, 2005 and February 29, 2004, respectively.

Use of Estimates—In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The Company’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying value of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Shipping and Handling Costs—In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 00-10, “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs,” the Company has reflected billings to customers for freight and handling as net sales and associated freight-out as cost of sales.

Stock-Based Compensation—The Company maintains a stock incentive plan. See Note 10 for additional information regarding this plan. The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. No compensation costs are recognized for stock option grants. All options granted under the Company’s plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based compensation. The following table also provides the amount of stock-based compensation cost included in net income as reported.

Executive Compensation

The Company has entered into an employment agreement with its CEO that will provide salary and other benefits upon his termination, currently amounting to $1,102,000 after the initial term of the agreement, subject to his performing certain non-compete and non-solicitation activities. The initial term of this agreement ends February 29, 2008.

Earnings per Share (EPS)—Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is based on the combination of weighted average number of shares outstanding and dilutive potential shares.

Comprehensive Income—SFAS No. 130 requires disclosure of the components of and total comprehensive income in the period in which they are recognized in the financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise arising from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in stockholders’ equity during the reporting period, except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company does not have changes in stockholders’ equity other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. The functional currency for the Company’s international operations is the U.S. dollar.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (revised December 2003) (FIN 46R), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” It is an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” which replaces FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” and revises the requirements for consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities with specific characteristics. Our adoption of this revised interpretation did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”). SFAS 123R supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the approach in SFAS 123R is similar to that described in SFAS 123. SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure will no longer be allowed. Public companies, other than those filing as small business issuers, will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first annual reporting period of the registrant’s fiscal year beginning on or after June 15, 2005. We expect to adopt SFAS 123R in fiscal 2007.

SFAS 123R permits public companies to adopt its requirement using one of two methods: (1) A “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date; or (2) A “modified retrospective” method which includes the requirements of the modified prospective method described above, but also permits entities to restate based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either (a) all prior periods presented or (b) prior interim periods of the year of adoption.

For the Years Ended February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003

 

As permitted by SFAS 123, we currently account for share-based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method under APB Opinion No. 25, and as such, we generally recognize no compensation cost for employee stock options. We intend to continue applying APB Opinion No. 25 to equity-based compensation awards until the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Upon our adoption of SFAS 123R, we expect to use the modified prospective application transition method without restatement of prior interim or annual periods. This will result in the recognition of compensation cost based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all equity-based compensation awards issued after March 1, 2006. For all equity-based compensation awards that are unvested as of March 1, 2006, compensation cost will be recognized for the unamortized portion of compensation cost not previously included in the SFAS 123 pro forma footnote disclosure. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of SFAS 123R may have on our results of operations and financial position. We expect that although the adoption could have a material effect on our results of operations, depending on the level and form of future equity-based compensation awards issued, it should not have a material effect on our financial position.

Stock Split—On January 7, 2005, our Board of Directors declared a 3-for-2 stock split on our Common Stock, to be effected as a 50% stock dividend. The new shares and cash payments in lieu of fractional shares were distributed on February 11, 2005 to stockholders of record on January 26, 2005. The total number of authorized Common Stock shares and associated par value were unchanged by this action. As a result of the split, stockholders received one additional share of our Common Stock for every two shares owned on January 26, 2005. Cash payments in lieu of fractional shares were based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the record date. All per-share amounts in the financial statements reflect the impact of the stock split for all periods presented.

Reclassifications—Certain reclassifications were made to the Consolidated Statement of Earnings for fiscal 2004 and 2003 to conform to the statement’s presentation for fiscal 2005.

Net inventory

   $ 2,251    $ 1,908
             

Inventories for which obsolescence reserves are established are raw materials and assembled components, as well as valuation adjustments for the Company’s demonstration equipment. The proprietary nature of many of the raw materials and components does not lend themselves for sale to outside parties, especially once newer technologies have been developed. It is rare that the Company would sell obsolete inventory; such sales when they do occur have a negligible impact on margins. Demonstration inventory is sold at a discount, thus generating no material impact on margins.

10. Stock Options

The Company’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) provides the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors broad discretion to issue awards in a variety of forms, including nonqualified and qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, other stock-based awards and performance awards. The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock. As of May 25, 2005, 241,000 shares of Common Stock underlying options granted by the Company under the Plan were outstanding. The exercise price per share of Common Stock purchasable under a stock option issued under the Plan shall not be less than the fair market value per share on the date of grant, or in the case of an incentive stock option granted to an individual who is a ten percent holder, not less than 110% of such fair market value per share. The Compensation Committee fixes the term of each stock option, but no incentive stock option shall be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of grant. Currently, outstanding options become exercisable one to five years from the grant date and expire five to ten years after the grant date.

During fiscal 2005 we accelerated the vesting period for our two retiring Board members. Any options that were unvested at the dates of their retirement became immediately vested. The expiration date on these remaining option grants was also accelerated to February 28, 2005.

As of May 25, 2005, 1,103,313 shares of Common Stock granted by the Company under its 1994 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the “1994 Plan”), remain outstanding. However, the Company does not intend to make any other grants under the 1994 Plan.

The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions only of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” It applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations in accounting for its plans and does not recognize compensation expense for its stock-based compensation plans when options are granted at fair value at the date of grant. If the Company had elected to recognize compensation expense based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans consistent with the methodology prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income and earnings per share would be reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

12. 401(k) Plan

The Company has a retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which allows employees to defer a portion of their income on a pretax basis through contributions to the plan. The Company matches employee contributions at varying rates, and may also make discretionary contributions to the plan. Total expense (in thousands) for fiscal 2004, 2003 and 2002 was $124, $112 and $98, respectively.

13. Contingencies

From time to time third parties have made claims that Company products infringe their third-party proprietary rights. In the event of a successful claim of infringement against the Company, it may be required to pay substantial damages, stop using certain technologies and methods, develop non-infringing products or methods and/or obtain one or more licenses from third parties. As of February 28, 2005, February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003, there were no specific unaccrued loss contingencies that the Company believes could have a material negative impact on its financial statements.

On April 22, 2004, two plaintiffs filed a product liability claim against us and certain other defendants seeking specific damages of $12,300,000, as well as unspecified damages for future loss of income earning

capacity. We intend to vigorously defend against the claims brought before us in this suit. Although the outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain, we believe that our product liability insurance coverage is adequate to cover liabilities resulting from this litigation, and therefore the results of this litigation should not have a material adverse effect on our business, assets, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. There are no other material liabilities or gain or loss contingencies that are required to be accrued or disclosed by FASB Statement No. 5.

15. Subsequent Event

On April 15, 2005 we entered into an agreement to sell approximately fourteen acres of vacant, unimproved land adjoining our corporate headquarters in Mundelein, Illinois to a residential developer. The purchase price for the property is approximately $2,828,500. This purchase price is based on the developer’s receiving approval to build a minimum of 90 attached single-family residences on the property. The purchase price will increase if the developer receives permission to build more than 90 residences.

Bio-logic Systems Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Bio-logic Systems Corp. (the “Company”) were prepared under the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the Company omitted some information and footnote disclosures normally accompanying the annual financial statements. You should read these interim financial statements and notes in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and their notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 27, 2005 (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. The results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. The following information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Bio-logic Systems Corp.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2005.

Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly owned domestic subsidiary, Bio-logic Holding Inc., and its wholly owned foreign subsidiary, Bio-logic Systems Corp., Ltd. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less.

Concentration of Credit Risk—The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions located predominantly in the United States, as well as in Israel and Poland. The majority of the Company’s investments is in money market accounts in the United States, and is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. Cash in foreign bank accounts is not insured. Uninsured balances in the aggregate were approximately $15,628,000 and $15,174,000 at November 30, 2005 and February 28, 2005, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and management believes it is not exposed to any significant risk of loss of cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable—The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from companies in the medical and health care industries. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition. New customers not affiliated with governments, hospitals or universities are generally subject to a deposit. Accounts receivable are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, and are generally due within 30 days for domestic customers and 60 days for international customers. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due and the Company’s previous loss history. The Company writes off accounts receivable when the Company determines that they are not collectable, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Charges for doubtful accounts are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Inventories—Inventories consist principally of components, parts and supplies, and are stated at the lower of cost, determined by the first in, first out method, or market. Inventories (in thousands) consist of the following:

 

     November 30,
2005
   February 28,
2005

Raw Materials

   $ 1,728    $ 1,587

     863      724
             

Net Inventory

   $ 2,717    $ 2,251

Property, Plant and Equipment—Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred, and significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three years to forty years.

Intangible Assets—Intangible assets consist primarily of capitalized software costs for research and development, as well as certain patent, trademark and license costs. Capitalized software development costs are recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed,” with costs being amortized using the straight-line method over a five-year period. Patent, trademark and license costs are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five years. On a periodic basis, management reviews the valuation of intangible assets to determine if there has been impairment by comparing the related assets’ carrying value to the undiscounted estimated future cash flows and/or operating income from related operations.

The following table (in thousands) summarizes the components of gross and net intangible asset balances:

Long-Lived Assets—The Company regularly reviews long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” No impairment was realized for the nine-month periods ended November 30, 2005 and 2004.

Other Assets—Other assets consist mainly of long-term trade receivables. Any required reserves for long-term trade receivables are recorded as part of the allowance for doubtful accounts. There are currently no reserve requirements for long-term receivables.

Revenue Recognition—The Company derives revenue from the sales of electrodiagnostic systems, disposable supplies, extended warranty contracts, non-warranty repair, and governmental research and development contracts. With the exception of domestic customers associated with certain group purchasing contracts, the terms of sale for systems and related supplies are generally FOB shipping point.

Domestically, the Company sells its neurology and sleep systems through a direct sales force, and uses a dealer network to sell its hearing screening and diagnostic systems. Internationally, the entire line of electrodiagnostic systems and supplies is sold through distributors located in various countries. There is no general right for a customer, dealer or distributor to return product. All sales are final, regardless of the distribution channel; returns are rare and are usually allowed only due to order error or quality concerns.

The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned, in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition; specifically, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Set-up and training revenue related to system sales is not recognized until the service is completed. Revenue from the performance of non-warranty repair activities is recognized in the period in which the work is performed. Revenue from extended warranty contracts is recognized over the life of the warranty. The Company carries a sales reserve that reduces revenue for potential future product returns, as well as unperformed set-up and training, and reviews its adequacy quarterly. To date, this reserve has been insignificant.

Revenue from research and development contracts relate to governmental grants awarded by the National Institute of Health. The grants cover reimbursement of specific expenses related to the feasibility and development

of projects for which the grants were given, and the Company recognizes revenue in the same period the qualifying costs are incurred. The Company’s obligation is to perform these feasibility and development activities in accordance with the terms of the grants, with no obligation for the work to result in a successful outcome such as a new product or successful discovery.

Advertising—Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Research and Development Costs—Research and development (R&D) costs are expensed as incurred. Capitalized research and development costs reflect internally generated software development costs associated with bringing new products to market, or significantly adding new features and functions to existing products. Accounting for software development costs is in accordance with SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, Or Otherwise Marketed.” Specifically, (a) R&D costs incurred in determining technological feasibility are expensed; (b) all material costs from the point where technological feasibility is determined up to the point when the product is available for general release to customers are capitalized; and (c) capitalization ceases when the developed product is available for general release to customers.

Income Taxes—Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the years in which the differences are expected to become recoverable. A valuation allowance is established where necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Deferred Federal income taxes are not provided for the undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiary. Undistributed foreign earnings were $2,430,000 and $2,913,835 as of November 30, 2005 and February 28, 2005, respectively.

Use of Estimates—In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The Company’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying value of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Shipping and Handling Costs—In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 00-10, “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs,” the Company has reflected billings to customers for freight and handling as net sales and for associated freight-out as cost of sales.

Stock-Based Compensation—The Company maintains a stock incentive plan under which it makes stock and option grants to employees and non-employee directors. The Company accounts for the option grants under this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. All options granted under the Company’s plan have an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. No compensation costs are recognized for these stock option grants.

In July 2005 the Company granted restricted stock to the members of its Board of Directors. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” the fair value on the date of the grant was used to determine the amount of associated compensation expense to be initially recorded by the Company as deferred compensation expense in the equity section of the balance sheet. This amount will be charged to operating expense over the vesting period associated with each individual grant. Recognized compensation expense associated with the vesting of restricted shares was approximately $26,000 for the quarter ended November 30, 2005.

See “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” below for a discussion of SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” which is a revision of SFAS No. 123.

Earnings per Share (EPS)—Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS is based on the combination of weighted average number of shares outstanding and dilutive potential shares.

Comprehensive Income—SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” requires disclosure of the components of and total comprehensive income in the period in which they are recognized in the financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise arising from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in stockholders’ equity during the reporting period, except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company does not have changes in stockholders’ equity other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to owners. The functional currency for the Company’s international operations is the U.S. dollar.

Contingencies

On April 22, 2004, two plaintiffs filed a product liability claim against us and certain other defendants seeking specific damages of $12,300,000, as well as unspecified damages for future loss of income earning capacity. A brief description of this lawsuit may be found in Part II, Item 1 to this Form 10-Q. On July 11, 2005, the attorneys for the plaintiff signed a stipulated limited judgment of dismissal, dismissing the Company from the lawsuit.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”). SFAS 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the approach in SFAS 123R is similar to that described in SFAS 123. SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure will no longer be allowed. Public companies, other than those filing as small business issuers, will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first reporting period of the registrant’s first fiscal year beginning on or after June 15, 2005. The Company expects to adopt SFAS 123R in fiscal 2007.

SFAS 123R permits public companies to adopt its requirement using one of two methods: (1) a “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date; or (2) a “modified retrospective” method which includes the requirements of the modified prospective method described above, but also permits entities to restate based on the amounts previously recognized under SFAS 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either (a) all prior periods presented or (b) prior interim periods of the year of adoption.

As permitted by SFAS 123, the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method under APB Opinion No. 25, and as such, the Company generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. The Company intends to continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25 to equity-based compensation awards until the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Upon the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company expects to use the modified prospective application transition method without restatement of prior interim or annual periods. This will result in the recognition of compensation cost based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all equity-based compensation awards issued after March 1, 2006. For all equity-based compensation awards that are unvested as of March 1, 2006, compensation cost will be recognized for the unamortized portion of compensation cost not previously included in the SFAS 123 pro forma footnote disclosure. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of SFAS 123R may have on the Company’s results of operations and financial position. The Company expects that the adoption could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, depending on the level and form of future equity-based compensation awards issued, but it should not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position.

Stock Split—On January 7, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 3-for-2 stock split on the Company’s Common Stock, that was effected as a 50% stock dividend. The new shares and cash payments in lieu of fractional shares were distributed on February 11, 2005 to stockholders of record on January 26, 2005. The total number of authorized Common Stock shares and associated par value were unchanged by this action. As a result of the split, the Company’s stockholders received one additional share of the Company’s Common Stock for every two shares owned on January 26, 2005. Cash payments in lieu of fractional shares were based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the record date. All share and per-share amounts in the financial statements reflect the impact of the stock split for all periods presented.

ReclassificationCertain reclassifications were made to the fiscal 2005 balance sheet amounts to conform to current year financial presentation.

Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2005 are based on the historical financial statements of Natus Medical Incorporated (“Natus”, the “Company”), and Bio-logic Systems Corp. (“Bio-logic”) after giving effect to the acquisition of Bio-logic by Natus using the purchase method of accounting and applying the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

Natus and Bio-logic have different fiscal year ends. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of Natus as of December 31, 2005 with the historical condensed consolidated balance sheet of Bio-logic as of December 31, 2005, giving effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on December 31, 2005. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income combines the historical consolidated statement of income of Natus for the year ended December 31, 2005, with the historical monthly, consolidated statements of income of Bio-logic for the twelve calendar months ended December 31, 2005, giving effect to the acquisition as though it had occurred on January 1, 2005.

The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, Business Combinations. Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price, calculated as described in Note 1 to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of Bio-logic acquired in connection with the acquisition, based on their estimated fair values. Management has made a preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on various preliminary estimates. The allocation of the estimated purchase price is preliminary pending finalization of various estimates and analyses.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared by management for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had Natus and Bio-logic been a combined company during the specified periods. The pro forma adjustments are based on the preliminary information available at the time of the preparation of this document. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, including the notes thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of Natus included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. In addition, the unaudited proforma condensed combined financial statements, including the notes thereto, are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of Bio-logic for the year ended February 28, 2005 and for the nine months ended November 30, 2005, which are included in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this Form

CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 - Basis of Presentation

On January 5, 2006, Natus completed its acquisition of Bio-logic whereby Bio-logic became a wholly owned subsidiary of Natus in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, each outstanding share of Bio-logic common stock was converted into the right to receive $8.77 in cash. Additionally, each outstanding option to acquire Bio-logic common stock was cancelled, with the holder of the option receiving, for each share covered by the option, an amount equal to the excess (if any) of $8.77 over the exercise price per share of the option.

The preliminary estimated total purchase price of the acquisition is as follows (in thousands):

 

Cash paid for outstanding stock and options

   $ 68,805

Direct transaction costs

     625
      

Total preliminary estimated purchase cost

   $ 69,430
      

Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price as shown in the table above is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of Bio-logic based on their estimated fair values as of January 5, 2006. Management has allocated the preliminary estimated purchase price based on preliminary estimates based on various factors as described in the introduction to these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary, pending the completion of various analyses and the finalization of estimates. The allocation of the preliminary purchase price, and estimated useful lives and first year amortization on an annualized basis associated with the amortizable identifiable intangible assets, is as follows (in thousands):

Net tangible assets. A preliminary estimate of $22.1 million has been allocated to net tangible assets, including $15.4 million of cash acquired and approximately $5.5 million of real estate for which approximately $2.8 million is currently subject to a contingent sales contract. The Company has not completed its analysis of the fair market value of other tangible assets acquired and any adjustment to the fair market value will be offset by a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

Identifiable intangible assets. Acquired identifiable intangible assets include core technology, developed technology, and tradenames. Core technology represents a combination of Bio-logic processes, patents, and trade secrets developed through years of experience in design and development of their products, which will be amortized on a graded basis over periods from 5 to 20 years. Developed technology relates to Bio-logic’s products across all of their product lines that have reached technological feasibility, which will be amortized on a graded basis over 10 years. Tradenames relates to the Bio-logic tradename and the tradenames of specific product lines; they have an indefinite life and will not be amortized.

Goodwill. Approximately $18.4 million has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and intangible assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill will not be amortized but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually (more frequently if certain indicators are present). In the event that management of the Company determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, the Company will incur an accounting charge for the amount of impairment during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made.

Net Deferred Tax Liability. A preliminary estimate of $761,000 has been allocated to a long-term deferred tax liability, which primarily results from the tradenames that have indefinite lives as well as adjustments to other items associated with net deferred tax liabilities. This amount is offset by an increase in goodwill.

In addition, the preliminary valuation of amortizable identified intangible assets will result in an approximate $8.7 million long-term deferred tax liability that will be offset by the reversal of the historical valuation allowance associated with deferred tax assets of Natus.

In-process research and development. A preliminary estimate of $5.9 million has been allocated to in-process research and development and will be charged to expense in the quarter ending March 31, 2006. Due to its non-recurring nature, the in-process research and development expense has been excluded from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income.

Bio-logic is currently developing new products in several product areas that qualify as in-process research and development. Projects that qualify as in-process research and development represent those that have not yet reached technological feasibility. Technological feasibility is defined as being equivalent to completion of a beta-phase working prototype in which there is no remaining risk relating to the development. The Company believes there is a risk that these development efforts and enhancements will not achieve technological feasibility, or if they do, may not be competitive with other products using alternative technologies that offer comparable functionality.

The value assigned to in-process research and development was determined by considering the importance of each project to the overall development plan, estimating costs to develop the purchased in-process research and development into commercially viable products, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the projects when completed, and discounting the net cash flows to their present value. The revenue estimates used to value the purchased in-process research and development were based on estimates of relevant market sizes and growth factors, expected trends in technology, and the nature and expected timing of new product introductions by Bio-logic and its competitors.

The estimates used in valuing in-process research and development were based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. Accordingly, actual results may vary from these estimates.

2 - Pro Forma Adjustments

Pro forma adjustments are described on the face of the respective financial statements.

Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated purchase price, the estimated value of acquired identified intangible assets, goodwill, the amortization expense related to the estimated amortizable intangible assets and deferred stock-based compensation, and the income tax effect related to the pro forma adjustments based on statutory rates in effect in the United States.

There were no intercompany balances or transactions between Natus and Bio-logic as of the dates and for the periods of these pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The pro forma combined provision for income taxes does not necessarily reflect the amounts that would have resulted had Natus and Bio-logic filed consolidated income tax returns during the periods presented.

3 – Integration Plan

As more fully described in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Natus on January 12, 2006, Natus initiated an Integration Plan (the “Plan”) subsequent to the acquisition, pursuant to which the Company announced it would be reducing the size of its combined workforce by approximately 23 employees, representing approximately 10% of the combined workforce of Natus and Bio-logic. The Company expects that total employee severance costs related to the staff reductions will be approximately $3.0 million, including costs related to change of control provisions in the employment contracts of the chief executive officer, chief operating officer, and two vice-presidents of Bio-logic totaling approximately $2.7 million. Such amount has been recorded as a liability on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2005.

Other than costs associated with the Plan mentioned above, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not include any adjustments for liabilities that may result from further integration activities, as management is in the process of making these assessments and estimates of these costs are not currently known. However, liabilities may ultimately be recorded related to integration activities, including additional costs related to the Plan. Any such adjustments to liabilities will be recorded as an adjustment to the purchase price and a corresponding offsetting adjustment to goodwill.

Although not reflected in the pro forma adjustments, the Company believes that on an annual basis the Plan will result in a reduction of personnel-related costs of approximately $3.2 million. The Company also believes that it will benefit from other synergies of the acquisition that should result in an additional annual reduction of non-personnel-related operating expenses of approximately $1.0 million.

4 - Pro Forma Net Income Per Share

The Company computes net income per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2005. Diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the same period. Common stock equivalents are shares underlying options under the Company’s stock option plans and are calculated using the treasury stock method.
