Spacelabs Healthcare, Inc.
Interim Results for the six months ended December 31, 2006
Spacelabs Healthcare, Inc. (LSE:SLAB) (‘Spacelabs’ or the ‘Company’) an international developer, manufacturer and distributor of medical equipment and services, today announces its Interim Results for the six months ended December 31, 2006.
Financial Highlights
• | Revenues of $111.0 million (H1 FY 2006: $112.4 million). |
Excluding revenues attributable to Del Mar Reynolds (“DMR”), acquired in July 2006, revenues decreased 13% from the period ended December 31, 2005.
• | Operating loss of ($5.6) million (H1 FY 2006: operating income of $6.5 million). |
The operating loss for the first half of fiscal 2007 includes a $0.6 million one-time pre-tax charge for in-process research and development relating to the Company’s acquisition of DMR.
• | Net loss of ($4.9) million (H1 FY 2006: net income of $4.1 million). |
• | Cash and cash equivalents of $4.8 million as of December 31, 2006 ($11.7 million at December 31, 2005). |
Corporate Initiatives
• | Restored sales momentum – following the disappointing level of North American patient monitoring orders in the first quarter, reversing a steady pattern of year-on-year order book increases for the past nine quarters, sales momentum has been restored. In the second quarter North American patient monitoring bookings increased 31% compared to Q2 of FY 2006 resulting in a strong order book entering H2 FY 2007. |
• | Restructured the business – to enhance accountability and to facilitate our global product strategy the Company has restructured into three key areas: North America managed by Joe Davin, Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) managed by Gary Grenter and Emerging Markets managed by Nicholas Ong. The Company has appointed Dave Tilley as Chief Operating Officer. The Company, after analyzing its product lines, elected to divest certain loss-generating non-core operations. This divesture was effective January 1, 2007 and these operations accounted for total revenues of approximately $8 million in fiscal year 2006. |
• | Initiated an aggressive cost reduction program – the Company has identified approximately $10 million of annualized savings resulting from the integration of DMR and rationalization of manufacturing facilities and a reduction of approximately 8% of its employees. The Company expects to realize cost savings of $2 - $3 million in H2 FY 2007 with the full benefit evident in fiscal 2008. |
• | Sustained a significant R&D program– the Company continues to invest in improving its product portfolio, especially as it relates to patient monitoring and connectivity. These efforts ensure the competitiveness of the current range of products and include the development of next generation monitoring and connectivity solutions. |
• | Increased focus on emerging markets– the Company looks to expand its presence in the emerging markets through the development of a low cost monitoring family and increased manufacturing presence in these markets in order to lower manufacturing and supply chain costs. |
Deepak Chopra, Chief Executive Officer of Spacelabs Healthcare Inc, said:
“After a slow start to the fiscal year management moved quickly to recapture the momentum we had experienced through the end of fiscal 2006. We have taken proactive steps to improve our operations and profitability. These actions are an initial step of an ongoing process. To that end we have begun to see positive signs of improvement in the second quarter and look forward to improved results for the remainder of the fiscal year with revenues and net income significantly stronger than those of the first half.”

Interim Report for the six months ended December 31, 2006
CEO’S STATEMENT
Introduction
Spacelabs Healthcare, Inc. (www.spacelabshealthcare.com) is an international developer, manufacturer and distributor of medical equipment and services including patient monitoring solutions, anesthesia delivery and ventilation systems, diagnostic cardiology solutions and supplies and accessories selling to hospitals, clinics and physicians offices. Additionally, the Company provides electrocardiogram (“ECG”) laboratory services to pharmaceutical companies undertaking clinical trials, whereby patient ECG data is recorded, analyzed, tabulated and interpreted.
The Company has established brand names in both medical devices and medical services such as “Spacelabs,” “Blease,” and “Del Mar Reynolds”. It employs approximately 1,200 personnel in offices located in the United States, UK, Canada, France, Germany, Finland, India and Singapore.
Operational Highlights
The Company reported revenues of $111.0 million for the first half of fiscal 2007, a decrease of approximately 1% when compared to $112.4 million reported for the first half of fiscal 2006. Excluding revenues contributed by DMR, acquired in July 2006, revenues declined by approximately 13% compared to the prior comparable period. The year on year decrease in revenues is primarily attributable to weak sales in the first quarter in the North American patient monitoring market.
Gross profit margin was 44% for the first half of fiscal 2007, a decrease of approximately 3% when compared to 47% for the first half of fiscal 2006. The year on year decrease in gross margins is primarily attributable to the aforementioned weak sales in the North American patient monitoring market, which is historically a high margin market for the Company. In the second quarter, North American patient monitoring order intake increased by 31% when compared the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and sequentially 64% when compared to the first quarter of the current fiscal year.
Corporate Initiatives
• | Restored sales momentum – following the disappointing level of North American patient monitoring orders in the first quarter, reversing a steady pattern of year-on-year order book increases for the past nine quarters, sales momentum has been restored. In the second quarter North American patient monitoring bookings increased 31% compared to Q2 of FY 2006 resulting in a strong order book entering H2 FY 2007. |
• | Restructured the business – to enhance accountability and to facilitate our global product strategy the Company has restructured into three key areas: North America managed by Joe Davin, Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) managed by Gary Grenter and Emerging Markets managed by Nicholas Ong. The Company has appointed Dave Tilley as Chief Operating Officer. In addition, the Company, after analyzing its product lines, elected to divest certain loss-generating non-core operations. This divesture was effective January 1, 2007 and these operations accounted for total revenues of approximately $8 million in fiscal year 2006. |
• | Initiated an aggressive cost reduction program – the Company has identified approximately $10 million of annualized savings resulting from the integration of DMR and rationalization of manufacturing facilities and a reduction of approximately 8% of its employees. The Company expects to realize cost savings of $2 - $3 million in H2 FY 2007 with the full benefit evident in fiscal 2008. |
• | Sustained a significant R&D program– the Company continues to invest in improving its product portfolio, especially as it relates to patient monitoring and connectivity. These efforts ensure the competitiveness of the current range of products and include the development of next generation monitoring and connectivity solutions. |
• | Increased focus on emerging markets– the Company looks to expand its presence in the emerging markets through the development of a low cost monitoring family and increased manufacturing presence in these markets in order to lower manufacturing and supply chain costs. |
The Company operates in two businesses: (a) Equipment, Service & Supplies and (b) Clinical Trial Services.
Equipment, Service & Supplies Business
The Equipment, Service & Supplies business develops, manufactures, and distributes medical equipment including patient monitoring and connectivity solutions, anesthesia delivery and ventilation systems, diagnostic cardiology solutions and supplies and accessories. The products are sold to hospitals, clinics and physicians offices. This business includes such brand names as “Spacelabs Medical,” “Blease” and “Del Mar Reynolds”.
For the first half of fiscal 2007, the Equipment, Service & Supplies business recorded revenues of $105.6 million (H1 FY 2006: $110.0 million), representing approximately 95% of the Company’s total reported revenues. Revenues recorded in the first half of fiscal 2007 include approximately $11.2 million of revenue contributed by Del Mar Reynolds, acquired in July 2006. The decrease in revenue in the first half of fiscal 2007 was primarily attributable to the weaker sales in the North American patient monitoring market.
After a slow start to the fiscal year our North American Patient Monitoring order intake increased by 31% in the second quarter when compared the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and sequentially 64% when compared to the first quarter of the fiscal year. The second quarter order intake was the highest recorded clearly demonstrating that the market in North America, despite the weak first quarter, remains strong and has not fallen away. Shipments lagged behind orders and were down versus the prior year in both quarters.
Sales outside of North America increased in the second quarter by 32% when compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and 47% versus the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Excluding Del Mar Reynolds, sales outside of North America increased by 5% and 44%, respectively, over the same periods. This is especially encouraging as we continue to diversify our revenue base and lessen our dependence on the U.S. healthcare market.
The Company remains committed to expanding into emerging markets. To that end, in November 2006, the Company introduced its first product targeted specifically at these markets, the mCare 300. The mCare 300 is a standalone monitor for low acuity patients and represents the Company’s initial entry into the fast growing low cost emerging market segments.
In October 2006, the Company was honored by Frost & Sullivan as its 2006 North American Patient Monitoring Company of the Year. This award acknowledged the Company’s success in 2006, a year in which the Company experienced strong double digit revenue growth in North America.
In October 2006, the Company also announced the introduction of the BleaseSirius advanced anesthesia system and Ultraview Perioperative Monitoring Suite into the North American market. The Company is excited about this opportunity as we leverage our strong number 3 position in patient monitoring, existing sales and support network and strong established brand name.
Core Strategy: Equipment Service and Supplies Business
The Company remains committed to its Core Strategy to be a leading provider of innovative, reliable and cost-optimized patient care solutions. Through focused development of open standards, connectivity and networking to enable ‘on demand’ information, our products help improve the quality of care administered to patients and improve clinician productivity.
The Company believes that the second half of the fiscal year will see improved operating results based on the positive signs of improving order intake in the second quarter after a disappointing start to the fiscal year in the first quarter. Overall the Company continues to focus on the following key initiatives:
• | Solidify and improve sales within the core North American Market: |
• | North America is a high margin business as we sell direct to our customers. |
• | We aim to capture additional opportunities through the newly introduced anesthesia delivery systems, diagnostic cardiology and a low acuity monitor into this market. Additionally, the Company expects to benefit from integration of diagnostic cardiology into the North American sales channel. |
• | Build upon the strong H1 performance outside North America: |
• | This represents a large growth opportunity for the Company. |
• | By increasing our international sales we lessen the Company’s dependence upon the North American market. |
• | Capture additional opportunities from sales of the new low acuity monitor. |
• | Leverage on a strong cardiology presence in the UK and Germany. |
• | Improve cost structure and operating income: |
• | Deliver $10 million in annualized savings. |
• | Shift to low cost manufacturing facilities. |
• | Continued focus on supply chain efficiencies. |
• | Continue steps to improve gross margins up above 50%. |
• | Focus on improving operating income to levels consistently above 10%. |
• | Continue to focus on research and development: |
• | Product innovation is key to our long term growth plans. |
• | Spacelabs has a reputation as market leader in product innovation. |
• | Our R&D efforts are driven by our interaction with our customers and intimate knowledge of their operations. |
• | Strategic acquisitions: |
• | Continue to evaluate strategic acquisitions of complementary products and technologies or sales channels. |
Clinical Trial Services Business
The Clinical Trial Services business collects, interprets and distributes Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Ambulatory Blood Pressure (ABP) cardiac safety data from clinical trials performed by Clinical Research Organizations (CROs) and pharmaceutical companies. The business operates under the trade names “Spacelabs Medical Data” and “Hertford Cardiology”, primarily in the U.S and European markets.
The Company acquired Hertford Cardiology as part of its July 2006 acquisition of Del Mar Reynolds.
In the first half of fiscal 2007, the Clinical Trial Services business recorded revenues of $5.4 million (H1 FY 2006: $2.4 million), representing approximately 5% of the Company’s total revenue. Revenues recorded in the first half of fiscal 2007 include approximately $2.0 million of revenue contributed by Hertford Cardiology, acquired as part of the July 2006 acquisition of DMR. During the first half of fiscal 2007, the contract order book for the business continued to grow aside from the contribution from Hertford Cardiology. This significant increase in the order book was a direct result of the successful completion of a number of audits conducted by key sponsors including both CROs and major pharmaceutical companies.
Core Strategy: Clinical Trial Services Business
The Company intends to take advantage of this high growth and profitable business by leveraging its newly expanded North American and European presence, which should allow us to:
• | Offer global coverage to our large pharmaceutical clients. |
• | Consolidate the infrastructure. |
• | Focus on improving operating income to levels consistently above 20%. |
Partnerships and Collaborations
The Company continues to focus on the development of partnerships and collaborations throughout the healthcare industry. The Company’s software platform for its patient monitoring systems provides an open architecture allowing it to work closely with other software and hardware providers, thereby ensuring that its customers receive the best integrated solutions available.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Profit and Loss Account
The Company reported revenues of $111.0 million for the first half of fiscal 2007, a decrease of approximately 1% when compared to $112.4 million reported for the first half of fiscal 2006. Excluding revenues contributed by DMR, acquired in July 2006, revenues declined by approximately 13% compared to the prior comparable period. The year-on-year decrease in revenues is primarily attributable to weak first quarter sales in the North American patient monitoring market.
The gross margin for the first half of fiscal 2007 was 44% compared to 47% reported in the first half of fiscal 2006. The decrease in gross margin was largely attributable to the aforementioned weak sales in the North American patient monitoring market, which is historically a high margin market for the Company.
Selling and General Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $42.1 million for the first half of fiscal 2007, an increase of $5.3 million from $36.8 million for the first half of fiscal 2006. The increase in SG&A expenses was attributable to the acquisition of DMR in July 2006.
Research and development expenses were $11.7 million for the first half of fiscal 2007, an increase of $2.3 million from $9.4 million reported in the first half of fiscal 2006. The increase in research and development expenses was attributable to DMR and increased spending on enhancements to our current product portfolio and the development of new product lines. Research and development expenses for the first half of fiscal 2007 include $0.6 million in write-offs of acquired in-process research and development costs associated with the DMR acquisition.
Stock-based compensation expenses for the first half of fiscal 2007 was $0.8 million compared to $0.5 million in the first half of fiscal 2006. Including stock-based compensation, the Company reported an operating loss of ($5.6) million for the first half of fiscal 2007 compared to operating income of $6.5 million reported for the first half of fiscal 2006.
Interest expense in the first half of fiscal 2007 was $2.2 million, compared to $0.4 million in the first half of fiscal 2006. The increase in interest payable was associated with the increased borrowings used to fund the Company’s acquisition of DMR.
The tax rate for the first half of fiscal 2007 was 35.5% compared to 36.1% for the first half of fiscal 2006.
The net loss for the first half of fiscal 2007 was ($4.9) million compared to net income of $4.1 million reported for the first half of fiscal 2006.
Balance Sheet
At December 31, 2006, the Company reported total assets of $176.2 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $4.8 million, and equity of $45.8 million. The Company has outstanding long-term debt of $57.6 million.
The increase in total assets and liabilities from June 30, 2006 is attributable primarily to acquisition of DMR.
Cash Flow Statement
For the period, the Company used $4.0 million in cash. Net cash used in operating activities was ($6.4) million. The Company used approximately $22.0 million for the acquisition of DMR, funded through a long term bank loan.
OUTLOOK
After a slow start to the fiscal year in the first quarter, we saw significant improvement in the Patient Monitoring order book in North America in the second quarter and as such we are optimistic for a stronger performance in the second half of the fiscal year. We have also moved proactively to take the necessary steps to improve our operations and profitability. These actions are an initial step of an ongoing process. To that end, we have begun to see positive signs of improvement in the second quarter and look forward to improved results for the remainder of the fiscal year with revenues and net income significantly stronger than those in the first half.

These condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended June 30, 2006, included in our Annual Report. The results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Derivative Instruments
The Company may, from time to time, purchase foreign exchange contracts in order to attempt to reduce foreign exchange transaction gains and losses, or enter into interest rate swaps. In June 2006, the Company entered into a $25.4 million forward contract to buy British pounds in anticipation of the acquisition of Del Mar Reynolds (see Note 2). At June 30, 2006, the Company recorded a $0.5 million unrealized gain related to this contract. In July 2006, the Company completed the Del Mar Reynolds acquisition and settled the foreign currency forward contract resulting in a fiscal year 2007 loss of $24,000 related to this contract.
Per Share Computations
The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company computes diluted earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method. The Company excludes from the calculation of diluted earnings per share stock options with exercise prices greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock because their effect would be anti-dilutive. The Company excludes all stock options from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per shares for the six months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands of dollars, except per share amounts):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” This interpretation clarifies how companies should account for uncertainty in income taxes that they recognize in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has not yet determined the impact that this interpretation will have on its financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the impact that this statement will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R).” This statement requires that an employer recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability, as applicable, in its statement of financial position and that it recognize, in comprehensive income of a business entity, any changes in such status in the year in which the changes occur. This statement also requires that an employer measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. This statement is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The Company has not yet determined the impact that this statement will have on its consolidated financial statements.
2. ACQUISITION OF DEL MAR REYNOLDS
On July 31, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of the Del Mar Reynolds Cardiac division of Ferraris Group PLC. Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreement, the Company made an initial cash payment of $25.9 million, subject to a working capital adjustment and to an adjustment of plus or minus $1.9 million based upon revenue and earnings results for Del Mar Reynolds for the 13-month period ending September 30, 2006. In September 2006, Ferraris Group PLC paid the Company $1.7 million in connection with the working capital adjustment and in November 2006 it paid the Company an additional $1.9 million as a result of the failure of Del Mar Reynolds to meet certain revenue and earnings results for the 13-month period ending September 30, 2006.
Contingent consideration of up to £5 million ($9.4 million at December 31, 2006) will be payable if Del Mar Reynolds achieves certain revenue targets during fiscal year 2007. The additional earn-out, if any, may be satisfied, at Company’s discretion, either in cash or by the issuance of the Company’s common stock. This acquisition expands the portfolio of products that the Company offers to the hospital market with the addition of cardiac monitoring systems. Del Mar Reynolds also offers a core laboratory business that provides clinical trial services to pharmaceutical companies and to clinical research organizations.
The results of operations for Del Mar Reynolds have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. The total cost of the acquisition, excluding the potential earn-out, was as follows (in thousands of dollars):
Cash paid for common stock | $ | 25,879 | ||
Less refund pursuant to working capital adjustment | (1,694 | ) | ||
Less refund pursuant to 13-month revenue and earnings adjustment | (1,872 | ) | ||
Direct costs | 814 | |||
Total purchase price | $ | 23,127 | ||
The Company has based the preliminary allocation of the purchase price on an estimate of fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The final determination of the allocation of the purchase price is pending the final assessment of a third party’s valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The finalization of the purchase price allocation may result in asset fair values and liabilities assumed that differ from the preliminary estimates of these amounts. As of December 31, 2006, the preliminary purchase price allocation was as follows (in thousands of dollars):
Net tangible assets acquired | $ | 2,150 | |
In-process research and development costs acquired | 561 | ||
Identifiable intangible assets acquired | 7,567 | ||
Goodwill | 12,849 | ||
$ | 23,127 | ||
A history of operating margins and profitability, a strong scientific employee base and operations in an attractive market niche were among the factors that contributed to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of goodwill. In-process research and development costs acquired were expensed during the six months ended December 31, 2006, and are included in operating expenses. Projects that qualify as in-process research and development represent those that had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no alternative future use.
As part of the integration of the Del Mar Reynolds business operations into the Company, the Company established the following reserve for the termination and relocation of certain employees to other sites, and legal and accounting fees (in thousands of dollars):
Employee severance | $ | 692 | |
Relocation costs | 212 | ||
Legal and accounting fees | 63 | ||
Rent and lease obligations | 571 | ||
$ | 1,538 | ||
During six months ended December 31, 2006, the Company paid $0.2 million in connection with severance charges, relocation costs and rent obligations. At December 31, 2006, the reserve amounted to $1.3 million and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Depreciation expense was $2.5 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
5. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”), requires that goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives be tested for impairment on an annual basis and on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstance change that may reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. We performed our annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2006, and concluded that no impairment of goodwill was indicated.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months period ended December 31, 2006 are as follows (in thousands of dollars):
Balance as of July 1, 2006 | $ | 5,990 | |
Goodwill acquired during the period | 13,070 | ||
Foreign currency translation adjustment | 250 | ||
Balance as of December 31, 2006 | $ | 19,310 | |
Amortization expense for the six months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $1.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
6. INCOME TAXES
The Company is included in the consolidated US federal and California state income tax filings of OSI. The Company files separate state income tax returns for other states and files separate foreign tax returns for its subsidiaries outside the United States. The Company’s tax expense (benefit) and deferred taxes have been computed as if the Company were filing separate, stand-alone, federal and state income tax returns. Accordingly, any settlement of U.S. federal or California state income taxes payable will be to OSI rather than to the Internal Revenue Service.
On October 24, 2005, the Company entered into a tax sharing agreement with OSI. The agreement becomes effective once OSI’s ownership interest in the Company falls below 80% whereby the Company will no longer be able to be included in OSI’s consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. The terms of this agreement assign responsibility to the Company for all taxes arising in the pre-separation period attributable to the Company. OSI will retain, and indemnify the Company for, among other things, the tax liabilities incurred as a result of transferring assets to the Company. Any other separation-related tax liabilities generally will be paid by the party legally responsible and OSI and the Company agreed to cooperate in the resolution of such taxes. The tax sharing agreement also deals with the allocation of obligations and responsibilities in connection with certain administrative matters relating to taxes.
7. LONG TERM DEBT
On July 18, 2006, the Company entered into a syndicated revolving credit and term loan agreement with Bank of the West as lead bank and syndication agent. The agreement provides for a $10 million senior revolving line-of-credit, including a letter-of-credit and foreign exchange facility, and a term loan of up to $27.4 million to fund the purchase of Del Mar Reynolds. The agreement is secured by all the U.S. assets of the Company and by shares of its subsidiaries. Interest on the loans is based, at the Company’s option, on either the bank’s prime rate, plus up to 0.5%, or on the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rate for deposits in U.S. dollars plus up to 2.5%, with the margin varying based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio (as defined in the agreement). At December 31, 2006, the weighted average effective interest rate was 7.8% on the revolving loan and 7.4% on the term loan. The agreement contains various representations, warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and conditions of default customary for financing of this type. As of December 31, 2006, the Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants; however, the bank waived these covenant violations. The revolving line of credit expires in July 2009 at which time all outstanding amounts are due and payable. As of December 31, 2006, $7.8 million was outstanding under the revolving line-of-credit. The term loan is repayable in 20 quarterly installments of $0.9 million, with a balloon payment of the remaining balance due on July 18, 2011. At December 31, 2006, $23.6 million was outstanding under the term loan.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Product warranties
The Company offers its customers warranties on many of the products that it sells. These warranties typically provide for repairs of the products if problems arise during a specified time period after original shipment. Concurrent with the sale of products, the Company records a provision for estimated warranty expenses with a corresponding increase in cost of goods sold. The Company periodically adjusts this provision based on historical and anticipated experience. The Company charges actual expenses of repairs under warranty, including parts and labor, to this provision when incurred.
The change in accrued warranties is as follows (in thousands of dollars):
Six months ended December 31, | ||||||||
2006 | 2005 | |||||||
Balance at the beginning of the period | $ | 3,835 | $ | 3,706 | ||||
Additions | 1,263 | 1,546 | ||||||
Reductions for warranty repair costs | (1,690 | ) | (1,557 | ) | ||||
Balance at the end of the period | $ | 3,408 | $ | 3,695 | ||||
Litigation
In March 2004, certain individuals named Spacelabs Medical, OSI Systems Inc. and a hospital in a petition claiming that the individuals suffered injuries in March 2003 caused, in part, by a defective monitoring system manufactured by Spacelabs Medical. OSI has been dismissed from the action. The amount of the claim has not yet been specified.
In April 2004, certain individuals named Spacelabs Medical, as well as several other defendants, in a petition that alleges, among other things, that a product possibly manufactured by Spacelabs Medical failed to properly monitor a hospital patient thereby contributing to the patient’s death in November 2001. The amount of the claim has not yet been specified.
In accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” the Company has not accrued for loss contingencies relating to the above matters because it believes that, although unfavorable outcomes in the proceedings or unasserted claims may be possible, they are not considered by management to be probable or reasonably estimable. If one or more of these matters are resolved in a manner adverse to the Company, the impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position and/or liquidity could be material.
In February 2005, a Greek distribution company filed an action in the courts of Greece claiming that Spacelabs orally agreed to appoint them as Spacelabs’ exclusive Greek distributor in 1999, but failed to do so. The distribution company claims that it incurred significant expenses as a result of Spacelabs’ actions, and demands €0.9 million (approximately $1.1 million as of June 30, 2006) in compensation. The Company has accrued a $0.3 million loss contingency for this claim which represents the Company’s best estimate of the probable loss that may be incurred. This amount is included in other accruals in the consolidated balance sheets.
Various lawsuits and claims are pending against the Company, including product liability claims which are generally covered by insurance policies. Although the outcome of such lawsuits and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the expected disposition thereof will not, in the opinion of management both individually and in the aggregate, result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.
Contingent Acquisition Obligations
In February 2005, the Company acquired Blease Medical Holdings Limited and certain affiliated companies for approximately $9.3 million in cash (net of cash acquired), including acquisition costs. For the three years following the close, contingent consideration is payable based on Blease’s net revenues, provided certain requirements are met. The contingent consideration is capped at £6.25 million (approximately $12.1 million as of December 31, 2006). As of December 31, 2006, no contingent consideration has been earned.
9. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for stock options in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which requires that it measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values.
The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated statements of operations as follows (in thousands):
Six months ended December 31, | ||||||
2006 | 2005 | |||||
Cost of goods sold | $ | 108 | $ | 48 | ||
Selling, general and administrative | 660 | 441 | ||||
Research and development | 62 | 24 | ||||
$ | 830 | $ | 513 | |||
The income tax benefit related to such compensation for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2006, total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements amounted to $1.5 million. The Company expects to recognize this cost over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.
10. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Allocations
All operating expenses associated with the Company are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, including expenses incurred by OSI on behalf of the Company. Certain corporate expenses incurred by OSI that are not practicable to be specifically identified as costs of the Company, which include human resources, treasury, accounting, information technology and executive officer costs, have been allocated by OSI. Management has allocated these costs based on percentage estimates of time or departmental effort devoted to working on Company related matters in relation to overall OSI matters. Allocated costs of $0.7 million and $0.8 million for the six month ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Management believes these methods of allocation are reasonable, and approximate what these expenses would have been on a stand-alone basis.
Loans from OSI
OSI has historically provided loans to the Company for working capital needs and to fund acquisitions. Through October 24, 2005, the loans were non-interest bearing and had unspecified repayment terms. On October 24, 2005, the Company entered into a formal loan agreement with OSI that specifies that interest is accrued on the loans at LIBOR rate plus 1.65% and that allows OSI to call for full or partial repayment of the loans with a notice period of 367 days. As notice from OSI has not been provided as of December 31, 2006, the loans are recorded as long term on the accompanying balance sheets. During the six months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company recorded interest expense related to these loans of $1.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
Supply arrangements
The Company purchases printed circuit board assemblies, certain sub-assemblies and various finished goods from subsidiaries of OSI. For the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, inventory purchases from OSI affiliates were $9.2 million and $5.1 million, respectively. Management of the Company believes the costs of these purchases are equivalent to what the Company could purchase from third party suppliers.
Manufacturing and office facilities
Certain of the Company’s businesses share manufacturing and office space with OSI and its subsidiaries. The cost of these facilities is charged to the Company based on square-footage of the shared facility. The amounts charged to the Company for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
Insurance
The Company is covered under OSI’s various liability and property insurance coverages. The actual costs of these coverages are charged to the Company on a specific identification basis. The amounts charged to the Company for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
Other
OSI and certain of its subsidiaries perform other activities on behalf of the Company including accounting, legal, information technology, and engineering. For the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, OSI charged the Company $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, related to these services based on the actual costs of the services provided. In addition, Spacelabs Medical also performs certain activities on behalf of OSI and certain of its subsidiaries. Spacelabs Medical charged OSI $0.1 million for these services during each of the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
11. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates in two reportable segments as defined by SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (“FAS 131”). The Equipment, Services & Supplies segment includes two operating segments Patient Monitoring/Anesthesia/Cardiology and Dolphin Medical. The Clinical Trial Services segment includes the Company’s medical data services business and the core laboratory business acquired as part of the Del Mar Reynolds acquisition (see Note 2). The Patient Monitoring/Anesthesia/Cardiology and Dolphin Medical operating segments have been aggregated pursuant to the rules of FAS 131. There were no inter-segment revenues during the six-month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
The following table presents the operations and identifiable assets by segment as of and for the six month periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In January 2007, the Company sold its Osteometer subsidiary and a portion of the Dolphin Medical business to a subsidiary of OSI for approximately $1.0 million, which equaled the net book value of the assets sold. Management estimates that the fair values of the sold businesses approximated their net book values. The Company does not expect to generate a gain or loss on this transaction.
