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 its 2000 Annual 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.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138, ("FAS 133"). FAS 133 was 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 did not have a material effect on the financial statements presented herein. As of June 30, 2001, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income included approximately $300,000 related to the intrinsic value of options.
In June 2001, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("FAS 141"), and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("FAS 142"). FAS 141 changes the accounting for business combinations, requiring that all business combinations be accounted for using the purchase method and that intangible assets be recognized as assets apart from goodwill if they arise from contractual or other legal rights, or if they are separable or capable of being separated from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged. FAS 141 is effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. FAS 142 specifies the financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets. Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives will not be amortized but rather will be tested at least annually for impairment. FAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December&nb sp;15, 2001.
-5-
C. R. BARD, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
FAS 142 requires that the useful lives of intangible assets acquired on or before June 30, 2001 be reassessed and the remaining amortization periods adjusted accordingly. Previously recognized intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives shall be tested for impairment. Goodwill recognized on or before June 30, 2001, shall be assigned to one or more reporting units and shall be tested for impairment as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which FAS 142 is initially applied in its entirety.
The Corporation has not fully assessed the potential impact of the adoption of FAS 142 which is effective for the Corporation as of January 1, 2002. The reassessment of intangible assets must be completed during the first quarter of 2002 and the assignment of goodwill to reporting units, along with completion of the first step of the transitional goodwill impairment tests, must be completed during the first six months of 2002. The Corporation anticipates that the majority of the goodwill recognized prior to July 1, 2001 will no longer be amortized effective January 1, 2002. Total amortization of goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2000, was approximately $13,400,000.
Use of Estimates
The financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and, accordingly, include amounts based on estimates and judgments of management with consideration given to materiality. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Developments
On May 29, 2001, Bard entered into a definitive agreement that provides for the merger of Bard with a subsidiary of Tyco International Ltd. ("Tyco"), as a result of which Bard will become an indirect Tyco subsidiary and holders of Bard common stock will become Tyco shareholders. Upon the closing of the merger, which is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of this year, Bard shareholders will receive 1.1280 Tyco common shares for each Bard common share. On August 7, 2001, Bard shareholders approved the merger. The closing of the merger is subject to customary conditions including regulatory review in the United States and Europe. The merger transaction is expected to be tax-free for holders of Bard common stock.
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 was approximately $142,000,000 at June 30, 2001.

C. R. BARD, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2001 of $295,900,000 increased 8 percent from the second quarter of 2000 net sales of $274,600,000. Net sales in the U.S. for the second quarter of 2001 were $215,200,000, an increase of 10 percent from the second quarter of 2000. International net sales for the second quarter of 2001 were $80,700,000, an increase of 3 percent from the second quarter of 2000. Total net sales for the quarter were negatively affected by 1 percent due to foreign currency translation, with international sales being negatively affected by 5 percent. For the first six months of 2001, U.S net sales totaled $424,100,000, up 9 percent as compared to the same period in 2000, while international net sales increased 1 percent to $156,600,000 as compared to the same period in 2000. Adjusting for currency translation, net sales outside the U.S. would have increased 7 percent for the first six months of 2001, as compared to the prior-year period.
Vascular net sales declined 3 percent for the quarter and increased 1 percent for the six month period ended June 30, 2001, compared to the prior-year periods, due primarily to lower graft sales. Urological net sales increased by 12 percent for the quarter and 8 percent for the six-month period as compared to the same periods in 2000, due primarily to growth in brachytheraphy products. Oncology net sales increased 12 percent for the quarter and 10 percent for the six-month period as compared to the same periods in 2000, due primarily to growth in net sales of specialty access products and interventional products. Surgical net sales increased by 10 percent for the quarter and 13 percent for the six-month period as compared to the same periods in 2000, due primarily to growth in net sales of soft tissue repair products.
The company's gross profit margin for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2001 of 53.3 percent and 53.4 percent, respectively declined from the gross profit margin for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2000 of 54.7 percent and 54.9 percent, respectively. This decline is primarily due to the impact of foreign currency translation, product mix and manufacturing variances.

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 may contain forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historic or current facts. They use words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe" and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance.In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products or product approvals, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. Because actual results are affected by risks and uncertainties, the company cautions investors that actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied. It is not possible to predict or identify all such risks and uncertainties, but 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 technologi cal 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 U.S. or 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 such as claims of alleged personal injuries as a result of exposure to natural rubber latex gloves distributed by the company as well as other product liability matters, and intellectual property matters and di sputes on agreements which arise in the ordinary course of business; 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 consolidation and restructuring initiatives, the integration of acquired businesses or divestitures. The company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements as circumstances change. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our 10-Q, 8-K and 10-K reports.
