C. R. BARD, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements contained in this filing have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and have not been audited. However, C. R. Bard, Inc. ("Bard" or the "company") believes that it has included all adjustments to the interim financial statements, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary to present fairly Bard's financial condition and results of operations at the dates and for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as filed by the company in the 1999Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Earnings Per Share
"Basic earnings per share" represents net income divided by the weighted average shares outstanding. "Diluted earnings per share" represents net income divided by weighted average shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental dilution of outstanding employee stock options and awards. Unless indicated otherwise per share amounts are calculated on a diluted basis.
Derivative Instruments
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("FAS 133"), which is effective for Bard as of January 1, 2001. FAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. FAS 133 requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized in either income or other comprehensive income, depending on the designated purpose of the derivative. The application of FAS 133 would not have had a material effect on the company's March 31, 2000 financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and, accordingly, include amounts based on estimates and judgments of management. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Long-Term Debt
In December 1996, the company issued $150,000,000 of 6.70% notes due 2026. These notes may be redeemed at the option of the note holders on December 1, 2006, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount. The market value of these notes approximates $138,600,000 at March 31, 2000.

Acquisitions
In August 1999, the company entered into an exclusive agreement with Endologix, Inc., a California-based company that has developed an endoluminal graft (ELG) used for the minimally invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms. The agreement gives Bard exclusive distribution rights to Endologix ELG in Europe and Australia and an exclusive and irrevocable option to acquire, for approximately $45 million, all of the company's remaining capital stock before the end of the year 2000. During 1999 Bard paid approximately $34 million primarily for the distribution rights and the option.
During the first quarter of 2000, the company invested in several new products and technologies in the area of hernia repair, specialty access and peripheral technology. In addition, during the first quarter of 2000, the company settled all remaining open issues related to the 1998 dispositions of its cardiology businesses and recorded a gain of $15,400,000 ($.19 diluted per share after-tax).
Segment Information
The company's management considers its business to be a single segment entity - the manufacture and sale of medical devices. The company's products generally share similar distribution channels and customers. The company designs, manufactures, packages, distributes and sells medical, surgical, diagnostic and patient care devices which, for the most part, are purchased by hospitals, physicians and nursing homes, used once and discarded. Management evaluates its various global product portfolios on a revenue basis, which is presented below. Management generally evaluates profitability and associated investment on an enterprise-wide basis due to shared infrastructures.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2000 of $268,500,000 increased 8 percent from the first quarter of 1999 net sales of $248,500,000. Net sales in the U.S. for the first quarter of 2000 were $191,900,000, an increase of 8 percent from the first quarter of 1999. Net sales in the U.S. for the first quarter of 2000 included sales of Cath Lab components to Medtronic on an OEM basis under a long-term supply agreement entered into during the quarter. International net sales for the first quarter of 2000 were $76,600,000, up 9 percent as compared to net sales for the first quarter of 1999. Total net sales for the quarter was negatively affected by 2 percent due to foreign currency translation, with international net sales being negatively affected by 6 percent.
Vascular sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 increased 11 percent as compared to the same period in 1999, mainly due to electrophysiology and peripheral technology product growth. Urological sales for the quarter increased by 5 percent as compared to the same period in 1999, mainly due to growth in infection control catheters. Oncology sales for the quarter increased 7 percent as compared to the same period in 1999 mainly due to specialty access products. Surgical sales for the quarter increased by 10 percent as compared to the same period in 1999, mainly due to soft tissue repair products.
The company's gross profit margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 of 55.2 percent declined from the gross profit margin for the quarter March 31, 1999 of 56.0 percent primarily due to the company's OEM agreement with Medtronic.
In the first quarter of 2000, the company settled all remaining open issues related to the 1998 dispositions of its cardiology businesses and recorded a gain of $15,400,000 ($.19 diluted per share after-tax).
Other income and expense for the first quarter of 2000 includes charges of $9,300,000 related to product line acquisitions and $5,400,000 related to legal settlements and research grants, amounting to a total charge of $.18 diluted per share after tax.
During the first quarter of 2000, the company acquired 420,300 of its common shares. During the first quarter of 1999, the company acquired 940,600 of its common shares.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Restructuring Charges
The company maintains a reserve account in connection with its previously announced restructuring plans. At March 31, 2000 the reserve balance amounted to $8,400,000. This amount relates primarily to severance costs associated with a facility that has not been closed. There has been substantially no activity during the first quarter of 2000.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements contained herein or in other company documents and certain statements that may be made by management of the company orally, statements regarding cost savings from restructuring and statements regarding the company's future performance, may contain forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Because actual results are affected by risks and uncertainties, the company cautions investors that actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied. Factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results include, but are not limited to: health care industry consolidation resulting in customer demands for price concessions and contracts that are more complex and have longer terms; competitive factors, including competitors' attempts to gain market share through aggressive marketing programs, the development of new products or technologies by competitors and technological obsolescence; reduction in medical procedures performed in a cost-conscious environment; the lengthy approval time by the FDA or other government authorities to clear medical devices for commercial release; unanticipated product failures; legislative or administrative reforms to the U.S. Medicare and Medicaid systems or other non-U.S. reimbursement systems in a manner that would significantly reduce reimbursements for procedures using the company's medical devices; the acquisition of key patents by competitors that would have the effect of excluding the company from new market segments; the uncertainty of whether increased research and development expenditures will result in increased sales; unpredictability of existing and future litigation including litigation regarding product liability and intellectual property; government actions or investigations affecting the industry in general or the company in particular; future difficulties obtaining product liability insurance on reasonable terms; efficacy or safety concerns with respect to marketed products, whether scientifically justified or not, that may lead to product recalls, withdrawals or declining sales; uncertainty related to tax appeals and litigation; future difficulties obtaining necessary components used in the company's products and/or price increases from the company's suppliers of critical components; economic factors that

the company has no control over, including changes in inflation, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates; other factors that the company has no control over, including earthquakes, floods, fires and explosions; risks associated with maintaining and expanding international operations; and the risk that the company may not achieve manufacturing or administrative efficiencies as a result of the company's restructuring, the integration of acquired businesses or divestitures .
