CONMED CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (in thousands except share amounts) Note 1 - Organization and operations The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of CONMED Corporation and its subsidiaries ("CONMED", the "Company", "we" or "us"). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. CONMED Corporation is a medical technology company specializing in instruments, implants and video equipment for arthroscopic sports medicine, and powered surgical instruments, such as drills and saws, for orthopedic, ENT, neuro-surgery and other surgical specialties. We are a leading developer, manufacturer and supplier of RF electrosurgery systems used routinely to cut and cauterize tissue in nearly all types of surgical procedures worldwide, endoscopy products such as trocars, clip appliers, scissors and surgical staplers and a full line of ECG electrodes for heart monitoring and other patient care products. We also offer integrated operating room systems and intensive care unit service managers. Our products are used in a variety of clinical settings, such as operating rooms, surgery centers, physicians' offices and critical care areas of hospitals. Our business is organized, managed and internally reported as a single segment, since our product offerings have similar economic, operating and other related characteristics. Stock-based Compensation We account for our stock-based compensation plans under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". No compensation expense has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements relative to our stock option plans. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" , as amended, and has been determined as if we had accounted for our employee stock options under the fair value method described in that statement. For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The Company's pro forma information follows: <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, -------- -------- 2002 2003 2002 2003 ---- ---- ---- ---- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Net income - as reported ........ $ 8,950 $ 2,763 $ 18,026 $ 9,431 -------- -------- -------- -------- Pro forma stock-based employee compensation expense, net of related income tax effect .....

Note 2 - Interim financial information The statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2003 are unaudited; in our opinion such unaudited statements include all adjustments (which comprise only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any other quarter nor for the year ending December 31, 2003. The consolidated condensed financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2002 included in our Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K. Note 3 - Other comprehensive income (loss) Comprehensive income (loss) consists of the following: <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, 2002 2003 2002 2003 ---- ---- ---- ---- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Net income ........................ $ 8,950 $ 2,763 $ 18,026 $ 9,431 -------- -------- -------- -------- Other comprehensive income: Foreign currency translation adjustment ........ 1,441 875 1,477 2,188 Cash flow hedging (net of income taxes) .........

Note 5 - Earnings per share Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential shares outstanding (i.e., options and warrants) during the period. The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands): Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, -------- -------- 2002 2003 2002 2003 ---- ---- ---- ---- Shares used in the calculation of Basic EPS(weighted average shares outstanding) ............... 26,584 28,910 25,735 28,892 Effect of dilutive potential securities ........................ 775 302 687 303 ------- ------- ------- ------- Shares used in the calculation of Diluted EPS .................... 27,359 29,212 26,422 29,195 ======= ======= ======= ======= The shares used in the calculation of diluted EPS exclude warrants and options to purchase shares where the exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares for the period. There were no options or warrants whose exercise price exceeded the average market price of common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002. Such shares aggregated approximately $1.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. Note 6 - Business acquisitions As more fully described in our report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, we acquired Bionx Implants, Inc. on March 10, 2003 for $47.0 million in cash (the "Bionx acquisition"). Bionx develops and manufactures self-reinforced resorbable polymer implants for use in a variety of orthopedic applications. In connection with the Bionx acquisition, during the quarter-ended March 31, 2003, we wrote-off $7.9 million in purchased in-process research and development assets. No benefit for income taxes was recorded on the write-off of purchased in-process research and development assets as these costs are not deductible for income tax purposes. Pro forma statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, assuming the Bionx acquisition occurred as of January 1, 2002 are presented below. The proforma net income and earnings per share for each period presented exclude the $7.9 million write-off of purchased in-process research and development assets. Three months ended Six months ended June 30, June 30, -------- -------- 2002 2003 2002 2003 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net sales .................. $ 115,830 $ 124,540 $ 233,801 $ 246,256 Net income ................. $ 8,517 $ 2,763 $ 17,192 $ 16,766 Basic .................... $ .32 $ .10 $ .67 $ .58 Diluted .................. .31 .09 .65 .57 During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we incurred approximately $1.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively, in other acquisition expenses related primarily to the December 31, 2002 acquisition of CORE Dynamics, Inc. (the "CORE acquisition") and the Bionx acquisition of which $1.2 million and $2.6 million have been recorded in other 6
expense and $.3 million and $.7 million have been recorded to cost of sales. Those expenses recorded to other expense consist of various acquisition integration costs to wind down CORE operations in Jacksonville, Florida and Bionx operations in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania. Those expenses recorded to cost of sales consist of the step-up to fair value related to the sale of inventory acquired as a result of the CORE and Bionx acquisitions as well as certain training and transition-related costs related to the transfer of CORE's manufacturing operations. On June 30, 2003, we acquired an electrosurgery business for $2.9 million in cash. Goodwill recognized in the transaction amounted to $2.4 million and is expected to be fully deductible for income tax purposes. The cost of this acquisition may require adjustment based upon information which is not currently available principally related to the valuation of inventory and other intangible assets. Note 7 - Other expense Other expense (income) consists of the following: Three Months Six Months Ended Ended June 30, 2003 ------------------------ Gain on settlement of a contractual dispute, net of legal costs ............................ $ -- ($9,000) Pension settlement costs ............................ 2,081 2,081 Acquisition-related costs ........................... 1,229 2,571 Loss on early extinguishments of debt ............... 7,912 8,078 ------- ------- Other expense .................................... $11,222 $ 3,730 ======= ======= On March 10, 2003, we entered into an agreement with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS") and Zimmer, Inc., ("Zimmer") to settle a contractual dispute related to the 1997 sale by BMS and its then subsidiary, Zimmer, of Linvatec Corporation to CONMED Corporation. As a result of the agreement, BMS paid us $9.5 million in cash, which was recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2003, as a gain on settlement of a contractual dispute, net of $.5 million in legal costs. During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, we announced a plan to restructure our orthopedic sales force by increasing our domestic sales force from 180 to 230 sales representatives. The increase is part of our integration plan for the Bionx acquisition discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. As part of the orthopedic sales force restructuring, we converted 90 direct employee sales representatives into nine independent sales agent groups. Once the restructuring is complete, we will have 18 exclusive orthopedic sales agent groups managing all 230 orthopedic sales representatives. As a result of the termination of the 90 direct employee sales representatives, we incurred costs of $2.1 million related to settlement losses of pension obligations, pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 88 , "Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits". During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, we incurred approximately $1.5 million and $3.3 million, respectively, in costs related primarily to the CORE acquisition and the Bionx acquisition of which $1.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively, has been recorded in other expense as discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 we purchased $127.4 million and $130.0 million, respectively, of our 9% senior subordinated notes (the "Notes") and recorded expense of $7.9 million and $8.1 million, respectively in premium and 7
unamortized deferred financing costs to other expense related to these purchases as discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. Note 8 - Long-term debt restructuring During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, we amended our existing $200.0 million senior credit agreement, (the "amended senior credit agreement"), expanding the existing term loan facility under the senior credit agreement by $160.0 million (the "expanded term loan facility"). The proceeds of the expanded term loan facility were used to reduce borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility, to fund the purchase of $127.4 million in outstanding Notes and related accrued interest, and fund payment of the 4.5% call premium on the Notes. Proceeds of the expanded term loan facility were also used to fund payment of bank and legal fees associated with amending the senior credit agreement. In connection with the purchase of the Notes, we wrote off $5.7 million in 4.5% call premium and $2.2 million in unamortized deferred financing costs to other expense. The balance outstanding on the expanded term loan facility at June 30, 2003 was $259.5 million. The expanded term loan facility extends for approximately 6 years, with scheduled principal payments of $2.6 million annually through December 2007 increasing to $70.8 million in 2008 and the remaining balance outstanding due in December 2009. We may be required, under certain circumstances, to make additional principal payments based on excess cash flow as defined in the amended senior credit agreement. There was $8.0 million in borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility under the amended senior credit agreement as of June 30, 2003 which are due and payable on August 28, 2007, the revolving credit facility termination date. Interest rates on the new term facility are LIBOR plus 2.75% or 4.91% at June 30, 2003. Interest rates on the revolving credit facility are LIBOR plus 2.50% or 3.84% at June 30, 2003. The amended senior credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all of our personal property and assets, except for our accounts receivable and related rights which have been sold in connection with our accounts receivable sales agreement. The amended senior credit agreement contains covenants and restrictions which, among other things, require maintenance of certain working capital levels and financial ratios, prohibit dividend payments and restrict the incurrence of certain indebtedness and other activities, including acquisitions and dispositions. The amended senior credit agreement contains a material adverse effect clause that could limit our ability to access additional funding under our amended senior credit agreement should a material adverse change in our business occur. We are also required, under certain circumstances, to make mandatory prepayments from net cash proceeds from any issue of equity and asset sales. Note 9 - Goodwill and other intangible assets The changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2003 are as follows: Balance as of January 1, 2003 ..................................... $ 262,394 Goodwill acquired ................................................. 26,936 Foreign currency translation ...................................... 517 --------- Balance as of June 30, 2003 ....................................... $ 289,847 ========= 8
Other intangible assets consist of the following: <TABLE> <CAPTION> December 31, 2002 June 30, 2003 ----------------- ------------- Gross Gross Carrying Accumulated Carrying Accumulated Amount Amortization Amount Amortization ------ ------------ ------ ------------ <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Amortized intangible assets: Customer relationships ................. $ 96,712 $(12,725) $105,712 $(14,057) Patents and other intangible assets .... 23,674 (13,534) 29,480 (14,806) Unamortized intangible assets: Trademarks and tradenames .............. 86,144 -- 86,944 -- -------- -------- -------- -------- $206,530 $(26,259) $222,136 $(28,863) ======== ======== ======== ======== </TABLE> Other intangible assets primarily represent allocations of purchase price to identifiable intangible assets of acquired businesses. The weighted average amortization period for intangible assets which are amortized is 22 years. Customer relationships are being amortized over 38 years. Patents and other intangible assets are being amortized over a weighted average life of 9 years. The trademarks and tradenames intangible asset has been determined to have an indefinite life and therefore is not amortized. Amortization expense related to intangible assets which are subject to amortization totaled $1,542 and $2,894 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively, and $1,409 and $2,817 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, and is included in selling and administrative expense on the consolidated condensed statement of income. The estimated amortization expense for the year ending December 31, 2003 and for each of the five succeeding years is as follows: 2003 $5,978 2004 5,677 2005 4,773 2006 4,206 2007 4,194 2008 3,831 Note 10 -- Guarantees We provide service and warranty policies on certain of our products at the time of sale. Liability under service and warranty policies is based upon a review of historical warranty and service claim experience. Adjustments are made to accruals as claim data and historical experience warrant. The changes in the carrying amount of service and product warranties for the six months ended June 30, 2003 are as follows: Balance as of January 1, 2003 .......... $ 3,213 Provision for warranties ............... 2,299 Claims made ............................ (2,077) ------- Balance as of June 30, 2003 ............ $ 3,435 ======= Note 11 - New Accounting Pronouncements In January 2003, FIN No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" was issued. The interpretation provides guidance on consolidating variable interest entities and 9
applies immediately to variable interests created after January 31, 2003. The guidelines of the interpretation will become applicable for us in our third quarter 2003 financial statements for variable interest entities created before February 1, 2003. The interpretation requires variable interest entities to be consolidated if the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit an entity to finance its activities without support from other parties or the equity investors lack certain specified characteristics. We do not currently anticipate any material accounting or disclosure requirement under the provisions of the interpretation. In April 2003, SFAS No. 149 "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 149 will be applicable for us in our third quarter 2003. We do not currently anticipate any material accounting or disclosure requirement under the provisions of the statement. In May 2003, SFAS No. 150 "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity" was issued. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability, many of which were previously classified as equity. SFAS No. 150 will be applicable for us in our third quarter 2003. We do not currently anticipate any material accounting or disclosure requirement under the provisions of the statement. In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections," which updates, clarifies, and simplifies certain existing accounting pronouncements beginning at various dates in 2002 and 2003. This Statement rescinds SFAS 4 and SFAS 64, which required net gains or losses from the extinguishment of debt to be classified as an extraordinary item in the income statement. These gains and losses will now be classified as extraordinary only if they meet the criteria for such classification as outlined in Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion 30, which allows for extraordinary treatment if the item is material and both unusual and infrequent in nature. We adopted this pronouncement during 2003. As a result we will reclassify the extraordinary loss recognized in the third quarter of 2002 related to the refinancing of debt to ordinary income in the 2003 annual and interim financial statements. In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities," which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities. This Statement supersedes Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit and Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. This pronouncement has not had an impact on our financial condition or results of operations during 2003. In November 2002, FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" was issued. The interpretation provides guidance on the guarantor's accounting and disclosure requirements for guarantees, including indirect guarantees of indebtedness of others. We have adopted the disclosure requirements of the interpretation as of December 31, 2002. The accounting guidelines are applicable to guarantees issued after December 31, 2002 and require that we record a liability for the fair value of such guarantees in the balance sheet. FIN 45 has not had a material accounting impact on our financial condition or results of operations. 10
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward-Looking Statements Made in this Form 10-Q In this Form 10-Q, we make forward-looking statements about our financial condition, results of operations and business. Forward-looking statements are statements made by us concerning events that may or may not occur in the future. These statements may be made directly in this document or may be "incorporated by reference" from other documents. You can find many of these statements by looking for words like "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates" or similar expressions. Forward-Looking Statements are not Guarantees of Future Performance Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include those identified under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2002 and the following, among others: o general economic and business conditions; o cyclical customer purchasing patterns due to budgetary and other constraints; o changes in customer preferences; o competition; o changes in technology; o our ability to manufacture product consistently and in a timely manner, especially those products involving delicate or complex manufacturing processes; o the introduction and acceptance of new products, including our PowerPro(R)battery-powered instrument product line; o the success of our distribution arrangement with DePuy Orthopaedics; o the integration of any acquisition, including the Bionx acquisition; o changes in business strategy; o the possibility that United States or foreign regulatory and/or administrative agencies might initiate enforcement actions against us or our distributors; o our indebtedness; o quality of our management and business abilities and the judgment of our personnel; o the risk of litigation, especially patent litigation as well as the cost associated with patent and other litigation; o changes in regulatory requirements; and o the availability, terms and deployment of capital. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" below and "Business" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2002 for a further discussion of these factors. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. 11
Critical Accounting Estimates Preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10K for the year-ended December 31, 2002 describes the significant accounting policies used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The most significant areas involving management judgments and estimates are described below and are considered by management to be critical to understanding the financial condition and results of operations of CONMED Corporation. Revenue Recognition We recognize revenue upon shipment of product and passage of title to our customers. Factors considered in our revenue recognition policy are as follows: o Sales to customers are evidenced by firm purchase orders. Title and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customer when product is shipped. o Payment by the customer is due under fixed payment terms. Even when the sale is to a distributor, payment to us is not contractually or implicitly delayed until the product is resold by the distributor. o We place certain of our capital equipment with customers in return for commitments to purchase disposable products over time periods generally ranging from one to three years. In these circumstances, no revenue is recognized upon capital shipment and we recognize revenue upon the disposable product shipment. o Product returns are only accepted at the discretion of the Company and in keeping with our "Returned Goods Policy". Product returns have not been significant historically. We accrue for sales returns, rebates and allowances based upon analysis of historical data. o The terms of the Company's sales to customers do not involve any obligations for the Company to perform future services. Limited warranties are generally provided for capital equipment sales and provisions for warranty are provided at the time of product shipment. o Amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling are included in net sales. Shipping and handling costs are included in selling and administrative expense. o We sell to a diversified base of customers around the world and, therefore, believe there is no material concentration of credit risk. o We assess the risk of loss on accounts receivable and adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts based on this risk assessment. Historically, losses on accounts receivable have not been material. Management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts of $.9 million at June 30, 2003 is adequate to provide for any probable losses from accounts receivable. Business Acquisitions We completed acquisitions in 2003 with purchase prices totaling approximately $50.0 million and have a history of growth through acquisitions. The assets and liabilities 12
of acquired businesses are recorded under the purchase method at their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition. Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying net assets of acquired businesses. Other intangible assets primarily represent allocations of purchase price to identifiable intangible assets of acquired businesses. We have accumulated goodwill of $289.8 million and other intangible assets of $193.3 million at June 30, 2003. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," ("SFAS 142"), goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment testing. The identification and measurement of goodwill impairment involves the estimation of the fair value of our business. The estimates of fair value are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment, which primarily incorporate management assumptions about expected future cash flows and contemplate other valuation techniques. Future cash flows can be affected by changes in industry or market conditions or the rate and extent to which anticipated synergies or cost savings are realized with newly acquired entities. Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset. Intangible assets which continue to be subject to amortization are also evaluated on an annual basis to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. An intangible asset is determined to be impaired when estimated future cash flows indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Although no goodwill or other intangible asset impairment has been recorded to date, there can be no assurances that future impairment will not occur. In connection with the Bionx acquisition, significant estimates were made in the valuation of the purchased in-process research and development assets. The purchased in-process research and development value relates to next generation sports medicine and orthopedic products, which are expected to be released between the second quarter of 2003 and fourth quarter of 2004. The acquired projects include enhancements and upgrades to existing device technology, introduction of new device functionality and the development of new materials technology for sports medicine and orthopedic applications. The value of the in-process research and development was calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis of the anticipated net cash flow stream associated with the in-process technology of the related product sales. The estimated net cash flows were discounted using a discount rate of 22%, which was based on the weighted-average cost of capital for publicly-traded companies within the medical device industry and adjusted for the stage of completion of each of the in-process research and development projects. The risk and return considerations surrounding the stage of completion were based on costs, man-hours and complexity of the work completed versus to be completed and other risks associated with achieving technological feasibility. In total, these projects were approximately 40% complete as of the acquisition date. The total budgeted costs for the projects were approximately $5.5 million and the remaining costs to complete these projects were approximately $3.3 million as of the acquisition date. The major risks and uncertainties associated with the timely and successful completion of these projects consist of the ability to confirm the safety and efficacy of the technologies and products based on the data from clinical trials and obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals. In addition, no assurance can be given that the underlying assumptions used to forecast the cash flows or the timely and successful completion of such projects will materialize, as estimated. For these reasons, among others, actual results may vary significantly from the estimated results. Pension Plans We sponsor defined benefit pension plans for the Company and its subsidiaries. Major assumptions used in the accounting for these plans include the discount rate, expected return on plan assets and rate of increase in employee compensation levels. Assumptions are determined based on Company data and appropriate market indicators, and are evaluated each year as of the plans' measurement date. A change in any of these 13
assumptions would have an effect on net periodic pension costs reported in the consolidated financial statements. Lower market interest rates and plan asset returns have resulted in declines in pension plan asset performance and funded status and higher pension expense. The discount rate used in determining pension expense in 2003 is 6.75%. Income Taxes The recorded future tax benefit arising from net deductible temporary differences and tax carryforwards is approximately $11.0 million at June 30, 2003. Management believes that our earnings during the periods when the temporary differences become deductible will be sufficient to realize the related future income tax benefits. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we estimate future taxable income, considering the feasibility of ongoing tax planning strategies and the realizability of tax loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets can be impacted by changes to tax laws, changes to statutory tax rates and future taxable income levels. In the event we were to determine that we would not be able to realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets in the future, we would reduce such amounts through a charge to income in the period that such determination was made. Results of Operations Three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to three months ended June 30, 2002 The following table presents, as a percentage of net sales, certain categories included in our unaudited consolidated statements of income for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended June 30, 2002 2003 ---- ---- (unaudited) Net sales ........................................... 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales ....................................... 46.5 47.7 ------- ------- Gross profit ................................... 53.5 52.3 Selling and administrative .......................... 31.6 31.6 Research and development ............................ 3.7 3.5 Other expense ....................................... -- 9.0 ------- ------- Income from operations ......................... 18.2 8.2 Interest expense .................................... 5.7 4.7 ------- ------- Income before income taxes ..................... 12.5 3.5 Provision for income taxes .......................... 4.5 1.3 ------- ------- Net income ..................................... 8.0% 2.2% ======= ======= Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were $124.5 million, an increase of 11.9% compared to sales of $111.3 million in the same quarter a year ago. Favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates accounted for 2.5% of our sales growth. o Sales in our orthopedic businesses increased 8.7% to $74.1 million from $68.2 million in the same quarter last year. o Arthroscopy sales, which represented 59.9% of total second quarter 2003 orthopedic revenues, grew 7.8% to $44.4 million from $41.2 million in the same quarter last year, including $4.1 million as a result of the Bionx acquisition (Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements). 14
o Powered surgical instrument sales, which represented 40.1% of orthopedic revenues, increased 10.0% to $29.7 million from $27.0 million in the same quarter last year on higher sales of our newly-introduced PowerPro(R) battery powered instrument product line. o Patient care sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $17.7 million, an increase of 3.5% when compared to $17.1 million in the same quarter last year on higher sales of our ECG products. o Electrosurgery sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 were $18.9 million, an increase of 11.2% when compared to $17.0 million in the same quarter last year, as we gained sales as a result of our newly-introduced System 5000(R) electrosurgical generator. o Sales of endoscopy products increased 32.2% to $11.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 from $9.0 million in the same quarter last year, including $1.8 million as a result of the CORE acquisition (See Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements). o Sales of integrated operating room systems were $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2003. This business is the result of our fourth quarter 2002 acquisitions of ValMed Corporation and Nortrex Medical Corporation. Cost of sales increased to $59.4 million in the second quarter 2003 as compared to $51.7 million in the same quarter last year, primarily as a result of the increased sales volumes described above while gross margin percentage was 52.3% in the second quarter of 2003, as compared to 53.5% in the second quarter of 2002. Included in cost of sales during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $.3 million in acquisition-related costs. Selling and administrative expense increased to $39.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $35.1 million in the second quarter of 2002. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expense totaled 31.6% in the second quarter of 2003, the same as in the second quarter of 2002. Research and development expense increased to $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2002. As a percentage of sales, research and development expense decreased to 3.5% in the current quarter compared to 3.7% in the same quarter a year ago but remains within the range of our historical percentages. As discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements, other expense is comprised of pension settlement costs of $2.1 million, acquisition-related costs of $1.2 million and the loss of $7.9 million on the early extinguishment of debt. There was no comparable expense in the second quarter in 2002. Interest expense in the second quarter of 2003 was $5.9 million compared to $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2002. The decrease in interest expense is primarily a result of lower weighted average interest rates on our borrowings, which have declined to 4.39% at June 30, 2003 as compared to 7.03% at June 30, 2002, offsetting an increase in borrowings at June 30, 2003 compared to June 30, 2002 of approximately $31.8 million. Provision for income taxes has been recorded at an effective rate of 36% for the second quarter 2003 and 2002. A reconciliation of the United States statutory income tax rate to our effective tax rate is included in Note 7 to the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 included in our Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K. 15
Results of Operations Six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to six months ended June 30, 2002 The following table presents, as a percentage of net sales, certain categories included in our unaudited consolidated statements of income for the periods indicated: Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 2003 ---- ---- (unaudited) Net sales ............................................ 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales ........................................ 47.1 47.7 ------- ------- Gross profit .................................... 52.9 52.3 Selling and administrative ........................... 31.1 31.5 Research and development ............................. 3.5 3.4 In-process R & D write-off ........................... -- 3.3 Other expense ........................................ -- 1.5 ------- ------- Income from operations .......................... 18.3 12.6 Interest expense ..................................... 5.8 4.7 ------- ------- Income before income taxes ...................... 12.5 7.9 Provision for income taxes ........................... 4.5 4.1 ------- ------- Net income ...................................... 8.0% 3.8% ======= ======= Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $242.6 million, an increase of 8.1% compared to sales of $224.5 million in the same period a year ago. Favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates accounted for 2.4% of our sales growth. o Sales in our orthopedic businesses increased 6.5% to $146.8 million from $137.9 million in the same period last year. o Arthroscopy sales, which represented 58.7% of total first half 2003 orthopedic revenues, grew 4.4% to $86.1 million from $82.5 million in the same period last year, including $4.9 million as a result of the Bionx acquisition (Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements). o Powered surgical instrument sales, which represented 41.3% of orthopedic revenues, increased 9.6% to $60.7 million from $55.4 million in the same period last year on higher sales of our newly-introduced PowerPro(R) battery powered instrument product line. o Patient care sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $35.0 million, compared to $34.4 million in the same period last year as increases in sales of our ECG and automatic defibrillator pad products offset decreases in the suction instrument product line. o Electrosurgery sales for the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $35.7 million, compared to $33.8 million in the same period last year as we gained sales as a result of our newly-introduced System 5000(R) electrosurgical generator compared with the same period last year. o Sales of endoscopy products increased 22.8% to $22.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $18.4 million in the same period last year, including $3.5 million as a result of the CORE acquisition (Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements). 16
o Sales of integrated operating room systems were $2.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. This business is the result of our fourth quarter 2002 acquisitions of ValMed Corporation and Nortrex Medical Corporation. Cost of sales increased to $115.8 million in the first half of 2003 as compared to $105.8 million in the same period a year ago, primarily as a result of the increased sales volumes described above while gross margin percentage was 52.3% in the first half of 2003, compared with the 52.9% experienced in the first half of 2002. Included in cost of sales during the six months ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $.7 million in acquisition-related costs. Selling and administrative expense increased to $76.5 million in the first half of 2003 as compared to $69.6 million in the first half of 2002. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expense totaled 31.5% in the first half of 2003 compared to 31.1% in the first half of 2002. The increase in selling and administrative expense as a percentage of sales is due principally to increased marketing costs associated with recently launched product lines including the integrated operating room systems product lines, PowerPro(R), and new electrosurgical generators. Research and development expense amounted to $8.1 million in the first half of 2003 as compared to $7.9 million in the first half of 2002. As a percentage of sales, research and development expense was 3.4% in the first half of 2003, consistent with 3.5% in the same period a year ago. As discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements, we wrote off purchased in-process research and development assets in connection with the Bionx acquisition of $7.9 million in the first quarter of 2003. As discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated condensed financial statements, other expense is comprised of a net gain on settlement of a contractual dispute of $9.0 million, pension settlement costs of $2.1 million, acquisition related costs of $2.6 million and the loss of $8.1 million on the early extinguishment of debt. There was no comparable expense in the first half of 2002. Interest expense in the first half of 2003 was $11.4 million compared to $13.0 million in the first half of 2002. The decrease in interest expense is primarily a result of lower weighted average interest rates on our borrowings, which have declined to 4.39% at June 30, 2003 as compared to 7.03% at June 30, 2002, offsetting an increase in borrowings at June 30, 2003 compared to June 30, 2002 of approximately $31.8 million, related to the Bionx acquisition. Provision for income taxes has been recorded at an effective rate of 51% for the first half of 2003 and 36% for the first half of 2002. The effective rate of 51% for the first half of 2003 is substantially higher than the 36% which we have experienced historically as a result of the non-deductibility for income tax purposes of the $7.9 million in-process research and development write-off recorded in the first quarter 2003 in conjunction with the Bionx acquisition. A reconciliation of the United States statutory income tax rate of 35% to our historical effective tax rate of 36% (excluding the effect of the in-process research and development write-off) is included in Note 7 to the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 included in our Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash generated from our operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility provide the working capital for our operations, debt service under our credit facility and the funding of our capital expenditures. In addition, we have used term borrowings, including: 17
o borrowings under our senior credit agreement; o Senior Subordinated Notes issued to refinance borrowings under our senior credit agreement, in the case of the acquisition of Linvatec Corporation in 1997; o borrowings under separate loan facilities, in the case of real property acquisitions, to finance our acquisitions. During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, we amended our existing $200.0 million senior credit agreement, (the "amended senior credit agreement"), expanding the existing term loan facility under the senior credit agreement by $160.0 million (the "expanded term loan facility"). The proceeds of the expanded term loan facility were used to reduce borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility, to fund the purchase of $127.4 million in outstanding 9% senior subordinated notes (the "Notes") and related accrued interest, and fund payment of the 4.5% call premium on the Notes. Proceeds of the expanded term loan facility were also used to fund payment of bank and legal fees associated with amending the senior credit agreement. In connection with the purchase of the Notes, we wrote off $5.7 million in 4.5% call premium and $2.2 million in unamortized deferred financing costs to other expense. The balance outstanding on the expanded term loan facility at June 30, 2003 was $259.5 million. The expanded term loan facility extends for approximately 6 years, with scheduled principal payments of $2.6 million annually through December 2007 increasing to $70.8 million in 2008 and the remaining balance outstanding due in December 2009. We may be required, under certain circumstances, to make additional principal payments based on excess cash flow as defined in the amended senior credit agreement. There was $8.0 million in borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility under the amended senior credit agreement as of June 30, 2003 which are due and payable on August 28, 2007, the revolving credit facility termination date. Interest rates on the new term facility are LIBOR plus 2.75% or 4.91% at June 30, 2003. Interest rates on the revolving credit facility are LIBOR plus 2.50% or 3.84% at June 30, 2003. The amended senior credit agreement is collateralized by substantially all of our personal property and assets, except for our accounts receivable and related rights which have been sold in connection with our accounts receivable sales agreement. The amended senior credit agreement contains covenants and restrictions which, among other things, require maintenance of certain working capital levels and financial ratios, prohibit dividend payments and restrict the incurrence of certain indebtedness and other activities, including acquisitions and dispositions. The amended senior credit agreement contains a material adverse effect clause that could limit our ability to access additional funding under our senior credit agreement should a material adverse change in our business occur. We are also required, under certain circumstances, to make mandatory prepayments from net cash proceeds from any issue of equity and asset sales. We used term loans to purchase the property in Largo, Florida utilized by our Linvatec subsidiary. The term loans consist of a Class A note bearing interest at 7.50%, a Class C note bearing interest at 8.25% and a seller-financed note bearing interest at 6.50%. The principal balances outstanding on the Class A note, Class C note and seller-financed note aggregate $10.2 million, $7.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively, at June 30, 2003. These loans are secured by our Largo, Florida property. We have a five-year accounts receivable sales agreement pursuant to which we and certain of our subsidiaries sell on an ongoing basis certain accounts receivable to CONMED Receivables Corporation, a wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary of CONMED Corporation. CRC may in turn sell up to an aggregate $50.0 million undivided percentage ownership interest in such receivables to a commercial paper conduit (the "conduit purchaser"). As of December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2003, the undivided percentage ownership interest in receivables sold by CRC to the conduit purchaser aggregated $37.0 million and $36.0 million, respectively, which has been accounted for as a sale and reflected in the balance sheet as a reduction in accounts receivable. 18
Our net working capital position was $148.7 million at June 30, 2003. Net cash provided by operations increased to $18.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to $17.9 million for the same period a year ago. Net cash provided by operations in the first half of 2003 was positively impacted by depreciation, amortization, deferred income taxes, the non-cash pension settlement charge, the non-cash write-off of the remaining unamortized deferred financing fees related to the extinguishment of our 9% senior subordinated notes and the non-cash write-off of purchased in-process research and development assets. Net cash provided by operations in the first half of 2003 was negatively impacted by the increase in working capital as a result of the Bionx acquisition (discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements) and the overall growth in our business. Capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2003 were $4.0 million compared to $8.4 million in the same period a year ago. These capital expenditures represent the ongoing capital investment requirements of our business and are expected to continue at the rate of approximately $12.0 to $14.0 million annually. Net cash used by investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2003 also included $51.5 million in payments related to business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, of which $46.5 million related to the Bionx acquisition and the remainder related to the CORE acquisition and the acquisition of an electrosurgery business as discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated condensed financial statements. Financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2003 consist primarily of $160.0 million in borrowings under the expanded term loan facility of the amended senior credit agreement and the retirement of $130.0 million in 9.0% senior subordinated notes. The remaining borrowings under the expanded term loan facility were used to reduce borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility as a result of the Bionx acquisition and to fund payment of bank and legal fees associated with amending the senior credit agreement. Based on the interest rates in effect at June 30, 2003, annual savings in interest costs as a result of this debt restructuring are estimated at approximately $6.0 million. Management believes that cash generated from operations, our current cash resources and funds available under our amended senior credit agreement will provide sufficient liquidity to ensure continued working capital for operations, debt service and funding of capital expenditures in the foreseeable future. Contractual Obligations There were no capital lease obligations or unconditional purchase obligations as of June 30, 2003. The following table summarizes our contractual obligations related to operating leases and long-term debt as of June 30, 2003: <TABLE> <CAPTION> (Amounts in thousands) 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 Thereafter ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Long-term debt ....... $ 2,016 $ 4,149 $ 4,336 $ 4,538 $ 12,759 $261,714 Operating lease obligations ........ 891 1,589 1,310 1,238 1,259 3,173 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Total contractual cash obligations ... $ 2,907 $ 5,738 $ 5,646 $ 5,776 $ 14,018 $264,887 ======== ======== ======== ======== ======== ======== </TABLE> Item 3.
