BOVIE MEDICAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S.) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations, financial position, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of Bovie Medical Corporation and its subsidiaries for the periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. Certain prior year amounts may have been reclassified to conform with the presentation used in 2006.


NOTE 2. INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally on the average cost method. Inventories at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were as follows:

NOTE 4. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

FASB Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An Interpretation of ARB51 The FASB finalized FIN 46R in December 2003. FIN 46R expands the scope of ARB51 and various EITFs and can require consolidation of legal structures, called Variable Interest Entities (VIEs). Companies with investments in Special Purpose Entities (SPEs) were required to implement FIN 46R in 2003; however, companies with VIEs were permitted to implement in the first quarter of 2004. While we do not have SPEs, we do have a VIE that we have determined will qualify for consolidation. Our joint venture with Jump Agentur Fur Electrotechnik GMBH (“the Joint Venture”, “JAG”) qualifies as a VIE. We have consolidated this VIE for the period ended June 30, 2006 and for the year ended December 31, 2005. The most significant impact to our financial statements is to include the net intangible assets of JAG, totaling $260,000 for the period ended June 30, 2006, and minority interest of $130,000 as of June 30, 2006 to our balance sheets. The impacts on our consolidated statements of net income or cash flows are not material.

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4,” which adopts wording from the International Accounting Standards Board’s (IASB) IAS 2 “Inventories” in an effort to improve the comparability of cross-border financial reporting. The FASB and IASB both believe the standards have the same intent; however, an amendment to the wording was adopted to avoid inconsistent application. The new standard indicates that abnormal freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) are required to be treated as current period charges rather than as a portion of inventory cost. Additionally, the standard clarifies that fixed production overhead should be allocated based on the normal capacity of a production facility. The Statement is effective beginning in fiscal year 2007. Adoption is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated earnings, financial position or cash flows.

NOTE 4. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

In December 2004, the FASB issued FSP FAS 109-1, “Application of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.” The FSP clarifies that the manufacturer’s deduction provided for under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Act) should be accounted for as a special deduction in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” and not as a tax rate reduction. The Qualified Production Activities Deduction will not impact our consolidated earnings, financial position or cash flows for fiscal year 2006 because the deduction is not available to us. We are currently evaluating the effect that this deduction will have in subsequent years.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), which replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employee. “SFAS 123R requires that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values, beginning with the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123, no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. We are required to adopt SFAS 123R in the fiscal year 2006. Under SFAS 123R, we must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used in valuing share-based payments the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at the date of adoption. Upon adoption, we may choose from two transition methods: the modified-prospective transition approach or the modified-retroactive transition approach. Under the modified-prospective transition approach we would be required to recognize compensation cost for awards that were granted prior to, but not vested as of the date of adoption. Prior periods remain unchanged and pro forma disclosures previously required by SFAS No. 123 continue to be required. Under the modified-retrospective transition method we would be required to restate prior periods by recognizing compensation cost in the amounts previously reported in the pro forma disclosure under SFAS No. 123. Under this method, we would be permitted to apply this presentation to all periods presented or to the start of the fiscal year in which SFAS No. 123R is adopted. We would also be required to follow the same guidelines as in the modified-prospective transition method for awards granted subsequent to adoption and those that were granted and not yet vested. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123R and its impact on our consolidated results of operations and earnings per share. We have not yet determined the method of adoption or the effect of adopting SFAS 123R, and it has not been determined whether the adoption will result in amounts similar to the current pro forma disclosures under SFAS 123.



NOTE 5. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

During the six-month period ending June 30, 2006, we issued 301,640 common shares in exchange for employee exercised options. The issuance of the common stock resulted in an increase in capital of $259,302.

NOTE 6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

We compute basic earnings per share (“basic EPS”) by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share (“diluted EPS”) gives effect to all dilutive potential shares outstanding resulting from employee stock options during the period. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
Six months ended June 30

All above figures are in thousands except basic and diluted earnings per share which are not. The shares used in the calculation of diluted EPS exclude options to purchase shares where the exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares for the period. Such excluded shares aggregated approximately zero and .5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

In January, 2006, pursuant to agreement to acquire technology from Henvil Corp. LTD and Steve Livneh, its principal, we acquired patent pending technology for new endoscopic disposable and reusable modular instruments (“the Product”) from Henvil Corp. LTD. (‘Henvil”). The innovative modular forceps are ergonomically designed to provide surgeons’ added comfort and improved safety while reducing per-procedure costs. The modular forceps offer an innovative and simpler assembly process for laparoscopic procedures and is a modular design for the arthroscopy market. Commercial prototypes have been developed and based on current projections we expect to commence marketing during fiscal 2006. The estimated annual worldwide market size for instruments of these categories is estimated to exceed $200 million.

The agreement requires us to purchase certain equipment and machinery ($400,000.00 value) and to hire Henvil to develop the technology and complete the design of the arthroscopic and laparoscopic instruments. In addition we must also purchase tools and molds expected to cost approximately $120,000. Henvil and Steve Livneh have also been hired as consultants for the development of the technology. The consultants are to be paid $30,000 per month from the day of execution of the agreement for a period of twelve months. In addition, commencing with the year following the first sale or commercial delivery of the Product, Bovie shall pay to Henvil’s principal, Steve Livneh, an initial minimum royalty of the greater of $35,000 per year or 3% of adjusted gross revenues received from the sale and marketing of the instruments for years two through five. Thereafter, a royalty equal to 2.5% of adjusted gross sales for the life of the patents issuable for the technology.

Mr. Livneh also shall receive 50,000 5-year restricted stock options to purchase Bovie common stock for each category of instrumentation (a total of 100,000 stock options) exercisable at the closing price of Bovie common stock on the American Stock Exchange on the date of the contract. The options shall vest immediately subject to Bovie’s prior application seeking FDA clearance for marketing of each respective product.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Level Overview

We are a medical device company engaged in the manufacturing and marketing of electrosurgical devices. Our medical products include a wide range of devices including electrosurgical generators and accessories, cauteries, medical lighting, nerve locators and other products.

We divide our operations into three reportable business segments: Electrosurgical products, battery operated cauteries and other products. The electrosurgical segment manufactures and markets electrosurgical generators, electrodes, electrosurgical pencils and various ancillary disposable products. These products are used in surgery for the cutting and coagulation of tissue. Battery operated cauteries are used for precise hemostasis (to stop bleeding) in ophthalmology and in other fields. Our other revenues are derived from nerve locators, disposable and reusable penlights, medical lighting, license fees, development fees and other miscellaneous income. Domestic sales accounted for 87% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to 84% in the first six months of 2005. Most of the Company’s products are marketed through medical distributors which distribute to a market of more than 6,000 hospitals and to doctors and other health-care facilities.

International sales were slightly higher in the first half of 2006 and accounted for 13% of total revenues for that period, as compared to 16% for June 30, 2005. The Company’s products are sold in more than 150 countries through local dealers. Local dealer support is coordinated by sales and marketing personnel at the St. Petersburg, Florida facility. We have no branch offices other than the Florida facility. We sell our products to distributors that distribute them in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, China, the CIS (former Soviet Union), Cyprus, Indonesia, Ireland, Korea, Latin America, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Turkey, and Vietnam. Our business is generally not seasonal in nature.

Outlook for 2006

The Company’s outlook for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006 continues positive, as we expect revenues to be at a record level which should translate into improved net earnings when compared to fiscal year 2005. Our optimism is based on our sales during the first seven months of fiscal year 2006 and on current budget estimates. The outlook excludes any sales which may be generated by Bovie’s new products, some of which we expect to begin marketing during the current calendar year. As part of our growth, we are experiencing higher costs in selling, payroll, professional fees, administrative costs and added expenses for research and development of new products. Growth, to a significant degree, is being fueled by anticipated higher OEM sales and generally increased sales in most product areas. Foreign sales are also forecast to be higher. The markets for our products are highly competitive; however, we believe that our competitive advantage is rooted in our ability to offer high quality products that meet changing demand. In addition, we offer the flexibility, quality of products and responsiveness that a smaller company can offer.

Fiscal year 2006 should feature new product introductions either by Bovie alone, and/or in collaborations with other larger medical companies. Although there is no assurance that agreements will result, we view possible agreements (not strictly OEM) to be beneficial in certain niche market segments. The shifting away from being highly dependent on OEM contracts and toward designing, developing and marketing our own brand of products, is accelerating and we anticipate that this will result in improved margins in the future. We have received FDA 510k clearance to market the suture removal device and have filed an FDA 510k application for our GI ICON.

Six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to six months ended June 30, 2005

The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2006 show increased sales and increased profitability, as compared to the first six months of 2005. Sales were $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to $9.8 million for the same period of 2005, an increase of 30% or $3.0 million. Sales of electrosurgical products increased by 53% or $1.6 million compared to the same period of 2005 while sales of cauteries increased by 20% from $1.3 million to $1.5 million. Other sales decreased by 20% from $.8 million to $.64 million. Over the last six months we have instituted price increases on cauteries and other products of 3%. There were no price increases on electrosurgical generators. No sales of one particular electrosurgical product dominated the number of units sold.   

Arthrex sales of generators and accessories increased $1.4 million or 109% from $1.3 million in the first six months of 2005 to $2.7 million in the first six months of 2006.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Domestic sales were $11.1 million for first six months of 2006, representing an increase of 36% from the same period last year. International sales were $1.6 million for the first six months of 2006, representing an increase of 2% over the same period 2005.

Cost of sales represented 59% of sales in the first six months of 2006 as compared to 66% of sales in the first six months of 2005, a total of $7.6 million and $6.5 million, respectively, an increase of $1.1 million. The reason for the decrease in cost of sales percentage was due to a decrease of 5.3% in indirect costs as a percentage of sales and a decrease in labor cost as a percentage of sales of 1.9%. As our sales have increased our indirect costs and labor costs as a dollar amount have not increased in the same manner and have remained relatively constant. Material cost as a percentage of sales has remained constant at 32% of sales.
 
Research, development and engineering expenses were 3.0% and 3.0% of sales for the first six months of 2006 and 2005, respectively. These expenses, as a dollar amount, increased 36% in 2006 to $378,055 an increase over the corresponding period of 2005 of $100,577. New products under development are the modular forceps instruments, suture removal device, plasma technology, GI device and various improvements to our line of electrosurgical generators.

Professional fees increased from $237,521 in the first six months of 2005 to $250,838 in the first six months of 2006, an increase of $13,317 or 6%. The company had increased legal costs in patent research and filings for some of the new products under development for first six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the previous year’s first six months.

Salaries and related costs increased in the first six months of 2006 by 20% to $1.3 million as compared to the first six months of 2005 at $1.1 million. The increase was mainly attributable to additional employees needed to foster the growth of the company in various areas.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 4% for the first six months of 2006 as compared to the first six months of 2005, to a total of $1.8 million.

Total other costs went from $3,388,204 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $3,802,272 for the same period in 2006, an increase of $414,068 or 12%.

Net interest earned increased by $10,584 during the first six months of 2006 when compared to the first six months of 2005 as a result of our higher cash balances being invested and yielding higher interest rates.

The effective income tax rate was 36% in the first six months of 2006 and the first six months of 2005. There was also a tax loss carryover benefit of 35.6 % for the first six months of 2006 and 36% for first six months of 2005. The difference between the income tax and the tax loss carryover benefit for the first six months of 2006 is $25,000, an estimated amount for the AMT (alternative minimum tax).

Diluted net earnings increased $.08 to $.08 per share or $1,402,940 in the first six months of 2006 as compared to a net loss of $29,314 or $.00 per share in the first six months of 2005. The increase in earnings of the first six months of 2006 over the first six months of 2005 was mostly attributable to an increase in electrosurgical sales while labor costs and indirect costs of sales as a dollar amount remained constant.



Results of Operations- Three months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005

Sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 were $6.7 million as compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2005, an increase of $1.7 million or 33%. The increase was mainly attributed to increased sales of electrosurgical products.

Cost of goods sold increased from $3.4 million to $3.8 million an increase of $.4 million or 13% for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)


Gross profit increased from $1.6 million to $2.9 million an increase of $1.3 million or 76%. Gross profit percentage increased from 33% in 2005 to 43% in 2006. The reason for the increase was mainly attributed to increased sales coupled with our factory overhead costs and labor costs, as a dollar amount, remained the same.

Research and development increased by $130,837 or 96% from $136,238 to $267,075 for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2006, respectively. The increase is due to costs for new products under development as they approach completion (i.e. modular forceps instruments, suture removal device, and GI device).

Professional fees increased by $31,412 or 35% from $89,499 to $120,911 for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 to June 30, 2006, respectively. This increase is mainly attributed to increased legal costs in patent research and filings for some of the new products under development.

Salaries and related costs increased from $555,364 to $758,116 for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 to June 30, 2006, respectively, an increase of $202,752 or 37%. This increase was mainly attributable to adding employees needed to foster the growth of the company.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $35,364 or 4% from $955,008 to $990,372 for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 to June 30, 2006, respectively. The largest areas of increased costs were for commissions and liability insurance.

Total other costs went from $1,766,688 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $2,180,757 for the same period in 2005, an increase of $414,069 or 23%.

Net interest income increased from $4,515 to $11,306 in income for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 as compared to quarter ended June 30, 2005. The increase is a direct result from the investment of our higher cash balances yielding higher interest rates.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $712,810 or $.04 diluted earnings per share as compared to net loss of $118,337 for the same quarter in 2005, an increase of $831,147 or 702%. The main reason for the increase in net income of the three months ended June 30, 2006 over the same period for 2005 was mostly attributable to an increase in electrosurgical sales coupled with labor and indirect costs, as a dollar amount of cost of goods sold, remained relatively unchanged.


We sell our products through distributors both overseas and in U.S. markets. New distributors are contacted through responses to our advertising in domestic and international medical journals and domestic or international trade shows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

We have agreements with various sales representatives to develop markets for our new products and to maintain customer relations. Our current representatives receive an average commission of approximately 4% of sales in their market areas. In the first six months of 2006 and 2005, commissions paid were $288,627 and $208,522 respectively, an increase of 38%.

An adequate supply of raw materials is available from both domestic and international suppliers. The relationship between us and our suppliers is generally limited to individual purchase order agreements, supplemented by contractual arrangements with key vendors to ensure availability of certain products. We have developed multiple sources of supply where possible.

In order to provide additional working capital, we have secured a $1.5 million credit facility with a local commercial bank. This facility is payable on demand. For the period ended June 30, 2006, we had zero funds drawn down on this credit facility.

Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 71% of net revenues for the first six months of 2006 as compared to 60% in the same period of 2005. For both periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, our ten largest trade receivables accounted for approximately 67% and 62% of outstanding receivables, respectively. In the first six months of 2006 and 2005 one customer accounted for 21% and 13% of total sales, respectively.

Product Development

Most of the Company’s products and product improvements have been developed internally. Funds for this development have come from internal cash flow and the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of stock options. The Company maintains close working relationships with physicians and medical personnel in hospitals and universities who assist in product research and development. New and improved products play a critical role in the Company’s sales growth. The Company continues to place emphasis on the development of proprietary products and product improvements to complement and expand its existing product lines. The Company has a centralized research and development focus, with its one manufacturing location responsible for new product development and product improvements. Our research, development and engineering units at the manufacturing location maintain relationships with distribution locations and customers in order to provide an understanding of changes in the market and product needs. During 2005 and into 2006 we invested in the J Plasma Technology, the Suture Removal Technology, the Gastrointestinal “GI” device and undertook development of Cardio and Urological Electrosurgical devices for a contractual partner. The suture removal device and the GI device are projected to be marketed during the second half of 2006. The ongoing cost for this development will be paid from operating cash flows.

In the next year we do not contemplate any material purchase or acquisition of assets which our ordinary cash flow and or credit line would not be able to sustain.

We believe that Bovie has the financial resources needed to meet business requirements in the foreseeable future, including capital expenditures needed for the expansion of our manufacturing site, working capital requirements, and product development programs, subject to Bovie maintaining compliance with our credit facility.

Reliance on Collaborative, Manufacturing and Selling Arrangements

We are dependent on certain contractual OEM customers for product development wherein we are to provide the manufacturing of the product developed. However, the customers have no legal obligation to purchase the developed products. Should the collaborative customer fail to give us purchase orders for the product after development, our future business and value of related assets could be negatively affected. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that a collaborative customer may give sufficient high priority to our products. In addition, disagreements or disputes may arise between Bovie and its contractual customers which could adversely affect production of our products. We also have similar informal collaborative arrangements with two foreign suppliers except that we request the development of certain items and components and we purchase them from the foreign supplier pursuant to purchase orders. Our purchase orders are never for more than one year and are supported by customer purchase orders from our customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our working capital at June 30, 2006 increased $1.2 million to $6.7 million from $5.5 million at December 31, 2005. The increase in working capital was primarily a result of cash provided from operating activities. Accounts payable and other accrued liabilities together increased $.2 million in the first six months of 2006 as a result of the growth in the business. Accounts receivable day sales outstanding were 43.2 days and 48.9 days at June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005 respectively.

We generated cash from operations of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared with applying cash to operations of $.57 million in the same period of 2005. The increase in cash from operations for the period end June 30, 2006 in comparison to the prior year is primarily due to the increase in sales volume along with an increase of $.2 million in accrued expenses.

In the first six months ended June 30, 2006 we used $.5 million for the purchase of fixed assets. Total borrowing decreased by $96,822, which was the net amount of paying off our first mortgage coupled with proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and the incurred debt from short term financing of insurance premiums.

We had $1.9 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2006. We also had outstanding borrowings totaling $.2 million at that date which all consisted of current note payable debt at June 30, 2006. We believe our cash on hand, as well as anticipated cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to fund future operating capital requirements, future manufacturing facility construction and other capital expenditures and future acquisitions to supplement our current product offerings. Should additional funds be required, we have $1.5 million of additional borrowing capacity available under our existing credit facility. Recently, the Company changed its commercial bank. Terms and credit lines remained similar.

Our future results of operations and the other forward-looking statements contained herein, particularly the statements regarding growth in the medical products industry, capital spending, research and development, and marketing and general and administrative expenses, involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In addition to the factors discussed above, there are other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, such as business conditions and the general economies; competitive factors including rival manufacturers’ availability of components at reasonable prices; risk of nonpayment of accounts receivable; risks associated with foreign operations; and litigation involving intellectual property and consumer issues.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)


We believe that we have the product mix, facilities, personnel, competitive edge, operating cash flows and financial resources for business success in the immediate (1 year) future and distant future (after 1 year), but future revenues, costs, margins, product mix and profits are all subject to the influence of a number of factors, as discussed above.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We have adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (GAAP) in the United States of America (U.S.).

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with U.S. GAAP, requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, minority investment, legal proceedings, research and development, warranty obligations, product liability, sales returns and discounts, and income taxes are updated as appropriate, which in most cases is at least quarterly. We base our estimates on historical experience, actuarial valuations, or various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and the results form the basis for making judgments about the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates.

Estimates are considered to be critical if they meet both of the following criteria: (1) the estimate requires assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made, and (2) other materially different estimates could have been reasonably made or material changes in the estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Our critical accounting estimates include the following:

Allowance for doubtful accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses in the collection of accounts receivable. We make estimates regarding the future ability of our customers to make required payments based on historical credit experience and expected future trends. If actual customer financial conditions are less favorable than projected by management, additional accounts receivable write-offs may be necessary, which could unfavorably affect future operating results.

Inventory Reserves

We maintain reserves for excess and obsolete inventory resulting from the potential inability to sell our products at prices in excess of current carrying costs. The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, with new products and surgical procedures introduced on an ongoing basis. Such marketplace changes may cause our products to become obsolete. We make estimates regarding the future recoverability of the costs of these products and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based on historical experience, and expected future trends. If actual product life cycles, product demand or acceptance of new product introductions are less favorable than projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required, which could unfavorably affect future operating results.

Income Taxes

We operate in multiple tax jurisdictions both inside and outside the United States. Accordingly, management must determine the appropriate allocation of income to each of these jurisdictions. Tax audits associated with the allocation of this income and other complex issues may require an extended period of time to resolve and may result in income tax adjustments if changes to the income allocation are required between jurisdictions with different tax rates. Because tax adjustments in certain jurisdictions can be significant, we record accruals representing our best estimate of the probable resolution of these matters. To the extent additional information becomes available, such accruals are adjusted to reflect the revised estimated probable outcome.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Other Matters

We distribute our products throughout the world. As a result, our financial results could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Our operating results are primarily exposed to changes in exchange rates among the United States dollar and European currencies, in particular the Euro and the British pound. When the United States dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the dollar value of sales denominated in foreign currencies increases. When the United States dollar strengthens, the opposite situation occurs. We manufacture our products in the United States, China and Bulgaria and incur the costs to manufacture in US dollars. This worldwide deployment of factories serves to partially mitigate the impact of the high costs of manufacturing in the US.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a revision to Statement No. 123, Share-Based Payment. This revision supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. This revision requires companies to recognize the cost of stock options based on the grant-date fair value pursuant to their employee stock option plans over the period during which the recipient is required to provide services in exchange for the options, typically the vesting period. Pursuant to the requirements of the Statement, and amendments we plan to adopt the provisions of the standard during the fiscal year 2006.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures [as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)] as of June 30, 2006 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (“the Certifying Officers”). Based on that evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
 
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow an assessment of the need to disclose and for timely decisions and timely reporting regarding required disclosure.
 
(b) Changes in internal controls

There was no change to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
