PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our common stock. You should read the entire prospectus, including the more detailed information and the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.
Our Business
We are a leading engineering and manufacturing services provider to the medical device industry. Our customers include many of the largest medical device companies in the world, such as Boston Scientific, Guidant, Johnson & Johnson affiliates and Medtronic, as well as other large and emerging medical device companies. We provide product development and design services, precision metal and plastic part manufacturing, product assembly services and supply chain management. Through these products and services, we offer our customers a single source solution for their device development and manufacturing needs, accelerated product development time, and reduced costs, allowing them to focus on their core competencies such as research and sales and marketing. Our revenues have grown from $89.4 million in fiscal 2000 to $128.5 million in fiscal 2001, or $149.8 million in fiscal 2001 on a pro forma basis.
The global medical device market in 2000 exceeded $170 billion, with the United States portion alone constituting approximately $70 billion, according to Frost & Sullivan. Our initial target markets are the surgical instrumentation, electro-medical implant, interventional and orthopedic markets. We selected these target markets based on their size, growth, margins, customer dynamics and competitive environment. We believe that medical device companies’ cost of goods sold largely represents the market for medical engineering and manufacturing services. Based on Frost & Sullivan data, we believe the cost of goods sold for our four target markets currently represents at least a $10 billion annual worldwide opportunity.
According to Frost & Sullivan, outsourcing of manufacturing by medical device companies in the United States grew at an annual rate in excess of 18% from 1999 to 2000. We believe that manufacturing outsourcing by medical device companies will continue to increase at approximately the same rate through 2005 and expect several trends to drive this growth, including:
r | the need for faster product innovation, which requires accelerating product development cycle times; |
r | cost containment pressures in healthcare, which necessitate a more efficient supply chain; and |
r | increased competition and industry consolidation. |
As a result of these factors, medical device companies are focusing on their core competencies in research and sales and marketing and are outsourcing other functions such as manufacturing and related engineering and product development services. We believe that the medical engineering and manufacturing services industry is highly fragmented with over 3,000 companies, many of which have annual revenues of less than $5 million and limited capabilities that do not satisfy current market requirements. We believe we address this market opportunity by providing our customers:
r | a single source solution; |
r | accelerated time to market; |
r | quality products and practices; |
r | reduced costs; and |
r | a financially stable product and service provider. |
3
The key elements of our strategy are to:
r | focus on manufacturing excellence and leading process technologies; |
r | strengthen our customer relationships by collaborating in the design and engineering of new products; |
r | drive additional component manufacturing business by continuing to expand our device assembly services; |
r | pursue product line transfers and acquisitions of customers’ manufacturing assets; and, |
r | selectively acquire companies to complement our product and service offerings. |
We began operations during March 1999 through the acquisition of seven companies with complementary capabilities, and subsequently broadened our capabilities through five additional acquisitions. Since our launch, we have focused our efforts on integrating and growing our business and have made significant investments in our product design and development capabilities, sales and marketing teams, operations, quality systems and information technology infrastructure to support that growth. We currently have 15 manufacturing facilities with approximately 600,000 total square feet and over 1,350 employees.
Recent Development
On January 4, 2002, we acquired HV Technologies, a market leader in the specialized manufacture of polymide and composite micro-tubing that is used in interventional and minimally invasive catheters, delivery systems and instruments. The acquisition of HV Technologies advances our position in the interventional device market by expanding our offering of proprietary manufacturing capabilities to our customers.
We were formed under the name Veratek International, Inc. in Delaware in April 1998, changed our name to MedSource Technologies, Inc. in January 1999 and began operations in March 1999. Our principal executive offices are located at 110 Cheshire Lane, Suite 100, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55305 and our telephone number is (952) 807-1234. Our internet address is www.medsourcetech.com. Information on our web site is not part of this prospectus.

(a) | Our fiscal years originally ended on the Saturday closest to June 30. Effective July 1, 2001, our fiscal year end was changed to June 30. |
(b) | In connection with our acquisition of HV Technologies in January 2002, we issued $6.0 million of our Series E preferred stock, and we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our common stock. We will record a discount of $2.5 million to the carrying value of the Series E preferred stock equal to the consideration allocated to the warrants. We plan to accrete this discount over the 12 month period ending December 31, 2002 because we plan to redeem our Series E preferred stock by that date. The effect of the accretion is excluded from the pro forma and pro forma as adjusted presentation. |
(c) | The Statement of Operations Data for the three months ended September 30, 2001 does not include a charge for the amortization of goodwill. Effective with our quarter ended September 30, 2001, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 141,Business Combinations, and No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and, accordingly, we reclassified certain identifiable intangibles to goodwill and will no longer amortize goodwill and intangible assets that are deemed to have indefinite lives under SFAS 142. Had we continued to amortize goodwill during the three months ended September 30, 2001, amortization expense in that period would have increased by approximately $1.4 million or $0.27 per common share. |
(d) | In June 2001, we completed a strategic review of our manufacturing operations and support functions. Based on this review and with board approval, we began actions to eliminate redundant facilities. These actions resulted in pre-tax charges of $11.5 million. The charges include employee termination benefits of $3.8 million, other exit costs of $2.2 million, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million and impairment of property, plant, and equipment of $1.9 million. |
(e) | Because of the subjectivity inherent in the assumptions concerning the nature and timing of the uses of cash generated by the pro forma interest and other expenses, cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities are not presented for the pro forma periods. |
(f) | EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income, cash flow from operations or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of our profitability or liquidity. Rather, EBITDA is presented because it is a widely accepted supplemental financial measure, and we believe that it provides relevant and useful information. A calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, since all companies do not calculate this non-GAAP measure in the same manner. Our EBITDA calculation is not intended to represent cash provided by (used in) operating activities since it does not include interest and taxes and changes in operating assets and liabilities, nor is it intended to represent a net increase in cash since it does not include cash provided by (used in) investing and financing activities. |
(g) | Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA to exclude management fees for all periods presented and excludes restructuring charges of $11.5 million for year ended June 30, 2001. |
(h) | In connection with the repayment of our debt, as discussed under the caption “Use of Proceeds,” we will expense $3.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, $2.6 million of unamortized discount and a redemption premium of $1.6 million. |

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, before deciding whether to invest in our common stock. The following risks and uncertainties are not the only ones we face. However, these are the risks our management believes are material. If any of the following risks materializes, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our business depends on industry trends and the business success of our customers
Our business depends on trends in the medical device industry, which is subject to rapid technological changes, short product life-cycles, frequent new product introductions and evolving industry standards, as well as economic cycles. Conditions or technological innovations adversely affecting any of our major customers, the medical device industry in general or the surgical instrumentation, electro-medical implant, interventional and orthopedic markets we target in particular, could adversely affect our operating results. For example, the discovery and market acceptance of non-device treatments for specific medical conditions could make the medical devices used to treat these conditions obsolete. In addition, the products and services that we provide to our customers generally are specific to a particular medical device being developed or marketed by them. If a customer’s medical device does not gain or maintain market acceptance because of competing medical devices or treatments, changing market conditions, unfavorable regulatory actions or other reasons, our revenues from that customer and our results of operations would be adversely affected.
We rely on a few large customers
The medical device industry is concentrated, with relatively few companies accounting for a large percentage of sales in the surgical instrumentation, electro-medical implant, interventional and orthopedic markets that we target. Accordingly, our revenue and profitability are highly dependent on our relationships with a limited number of large medical device companies. In fiscal 2001, our top four customers accounted for approximately 41% of our revenues, with one customer accounting for 18% of our revenues and another accounting for 12% of our revenues. In fiscal 2000, our top four customers accounted for approximately 42% of our revenues, with one customer accounting for 16% of our revenues and another accounting for 14% of our revenues. We provide products and services to several different divisions of our top customers. We are likely to continue to experience a high degree of customer concentration, particularly if there is further consolidation within the medical device industry. We cannot assure you that there will not be a loss or reduction in business from one or more of our major customers. In addition, we cannot assure you that revenues from customers that have accounted for significant revenues in the past, either individually or as a group, will reach or exceed historical levels in any future period. The loss or a significant reduction of business from any of our major customers would adversely affect our results of operations.
Our growth may depend on continued outsourcing
To date, we have benefited from the growing trend of medical device companies to outsource all or a portion of their engineering, product development, manufacturing and assembly requirements. Although we expect medical device companies to increase their outsourcing of these requirements in the future, we cannot be certain that this trend will continue or that, if it continues, we will benefit from it. Even if the outsourcing trend in the industry continues, one or more of our principal customers could decide to decrease its reliance on or use of outsourcing, which would reduce our customer base.
Also, as part of our growth strategy, we are seeking to accept full supply chain management and manufacturing responsibility for selected product lines from our customers and, in some cases, to acquire the related manufacturing assets from these customers. While we believe that product line transfers and asset
9
acquisitions of this kind are becoming increasingly attractive to our customers, we have only consummated one of these transactions to date. We cannot be sure that opportunities of this nature will be available, especially if the trend toward outsourcing does not continue.
We have few contracts that ensure us future business
Generally, we work with our customers on a project-by-project or purchase order-by-purchase order basis, without any long term revenue, volume or other commitments to ensure us future business. Customer orders typically may be cancelled and volume levels may be changed or delayed at any time. We cannot assure you that we can replace delayed, cancelled or reduced projects with new business in a timely manner. Also, we may not fully recover our costs in connection with cancelled, delayed or reduced projects.
Our results of operations fluctuate
Our operating results have fluctuated in the past from quarter to quarter and are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a variety of factors, including:
r | the timing of actual customer orders and the accuracy of our customers’ forecasts of future production requirements; |
r | the introduction and market acceptance of our customers’ new products and changes in demand for our customers’ existing products; |
r | changes in the relative portion of our revenue represented by our various products, services and customers, including the relative mix of our business across our target markets; |
r | changes in competitive or economic conditions generally or in our customers’ markets; |
r | changes in availability or costs of raw materials or supplies; and |
r | demand for our products and services, which, during our limited operating history, has been higher than average during the last quarter of our fiscal year and lower than average during the first quarter of our fiscal year. |
For all these reasons, our quarterly results are difficult to predict and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. Fluctuations in our quarterly results could result in our failing to meet the expectations of the investment community, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock even if those fluctuations are unrelated to our long term operating performance or prospects.
We may not successfully manage our growth and integrate acquired businesses
We were formed in March 1999 through the acquisition of seven separate businesses. In January 2000, we acquired the business of Tenax Corporation; in February 2000, we acquired Apex Engineering; in May 2000, we acquired Thermat Precision Technology, Inc.; in December 2000, we acquired ACT Medical, Inc.; and in January 2002, we acquired HV Technologies. As a result, we are experiencing rapid growth that could strain our managerial and other resources.
The successful integration and operation of an acquired business requires communication and cooperation among key managers, the transition of customer relationships, the management of ongoing projects of acquired companies and the management of new projects across previously independent facilities. Acquisitions also involve a number of other risks, including:

r | the diversion of management attention; |
r | difficulties in integrating the operations and products of an acquired business or in realizing projected operational results, synergies and cost savings; |
r | inaccurate assessments of undisclosed liabilities; and |
r | potential loss of key customers or employees of the acquired businesses. |
Customer satisfaction or performance problems with an acquired company could also harm our reputation as a whole, and any acquired business could significantly underperform relative to our expectations. Because all of our acquisitions were completed in the past 36 months, we are currently facing all of these challenges and our ability to meet them over the long term has not been established. For all these reasons, our pursuit of an overall acquisition strategy or any individual completed, pending or future acquisition may adversely affect the realization of our strategic goals.
In addition, while we anticipate cost savings, operating efficiencies and other synergies as a result of our acquisitions, the consolidation of functions and the integration of departments, systems and procedures present significant management challenges. We cannot assure you that we will:
r | successfully accomplish those actions as rapidly as anticipated; |
r | achieve the cost savings and efficiencies that we expect from our acquisitions; |
r | successfully manage the integration of new locations or acquired operations; |
r | fully use new capacity; or |
r | enhance our business as a result of any past or future acquisition, including those mentioned above. |
The acquisition of new operations can also introduce new types of risks to our business. For example, new acquisitions may require greater levels of financing or greater effort to address United States Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, regulation or similar foreign regulation.
We may face product liability claims
We may be exposed to product liability claims and product recalls, including those which may arise from misuse or malfunction of, or design flaws in, our customers’ products, whether or not such problems directly relate to the products and services we have provided. Generally, we do not at this time have agreements in place with our customers governing liability for product liability and recalls. Even where we have agreements with customers that contain provisions attempting to limit our damages, these provisions may not be enforceable or may otherwise fail to protect us from liability. Product liability claims or product recalls, regardless of their ultimate outcome, could require us to spend significant time and money in litigation or require us to pay significant damages. The occurrence of product liability claims or product recalls could cause our results of operations to be adversely affected.
We carry $20.0 million of product liability insurance coverage which is limited in scope. Our management believes that our insurance coverage is adequate given the risks we face. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain this insurance or to do so at reasonable cost and on reasonable terms. We also cannot assure you that this insurance will be adequate to protect us against a product liability claim that may arise in the future.
11
We may experience decreasing prices for the products and services we offer
We may experience decreasing prices for the products and services we offer due to:
r | pricing pressure experienced by our customers from managed care organizations and other third-party payors; |
r | increased market power of our customers as the medical device industry consolidates; and |
r | increased competition among medical engineering and manufacturing services providers. |
If the prices for our products and services decrease for whatever reason and we are unable to reduce our expenses, our results of operations will be adversely affected.
Quality problems could harm our reputation and erode our competitive position
Quality is extremely important to us and our customers due to the serious and costly consequences of product failure. Our success depends in part on our ability to manufacture to exact design specifications precision engineered plastic and metal components, subassemblies and finished devices from multiple materials. If our products and services fail to meet the highest quality standards or fail to adapt to evolution in those standards, our reputation could be harmed and our competitive position could be damaged. In addition, our quality systems and certifications are critical to the marketing success of our products and services. If we fail to maintain our quality systems or certifications, our reputation could be damaged and our results of operations could be adversely affected.
We face competition from a variety of sources
Our current and prospective customers often evaluate our product and service offerings against the merits of internal design and engineering, manufacturing, assembly and supply chain management. In this sense, we often compete for business with the internal resources of our customers, many of whom are leading medical device companies with long-standing internal design and engineering, manufacturing and supply chain management capabilities. Our success therefore depends heavily upon our ability to demonstrate and deliver cost savings and accelerated time to market for our customers as compared to use of internal resources, without loss of quality, confidentiality or reliability.
In addition, we believe the medical engineering and manufacturing services industry is very competitive and fragmented with over 3,000 companies, many of which are specialized. To the extent that medical device companies seek to outsource more of the design, prototyping and manufacturing of their products, we will face increasing competitive pressures to broaden our capabilities and grow our business in order to maintain our competitive position, and we may encounter competition from other companies with design, technological and manufacturing capabilities similar or superior to ours.
Our indebtedness could have negative consequences for our business
Failure to comply with the covenants under our senior credit facility or with respect to any future indebtedness may result in an event of default. If an event of default occurs and is not cured or waived, substantially all of our indebtedness could become immediately due and payable. We anticipate that upon the closing of this offering our total debt will be approximately $40 million and our annual interest expense will be approximately $ million. The ability to pay interest and principal on our debt obligations will depend on our future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that our operations will generate earnings in any future period sufficient to cover the fixed charges. In addition, we may experience variable financial results as a consequence of floating interest rate debt. As interest rates fluctuate, we may
12
experience increases in interest expense, which may materially affect financial results. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” on page 35.
We may require additional capital
Our growth strategy will require additional capital for, among other purposes, completing acquisitions of companies and customers’ product lines and manufacturing assets, integrating acquired companies and assets, acquiring new equipment and maintaining the condition of existing equipment. In connection with this offering, we intend to repay all of our subordinated indebtedness and replace our existing senior credit facility with a new senior credit facility. If cash generated internally is insufficient to fund capital requirements, or if funds are not available under our new senior credit facility, we will require additional debt or equity financing. Adequate financing may not be available or, if available, may not be available on terms satisfactory to us. If we fail to obtain sufficient additional capital in the future, we could be forced to curtail our growth strategy by reducing or delaying capital expenditures and acquisitions, selling assets or restructuring or refinancing our indebtedness. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” on page 35.
Our growth may depend upon our ability to make acquisitions
Our continued growth may depend on our ability to identify and acquire on acceptable terms companies that complement or enhance our business. We may not be able to identify or complete future acquisitions. Some of the risks that we may encounter include expenses associated with, and difficulties in identifying, potential targets, the costs associated with incomplete acquisitions and higher prices for acquired companies because of competition for attractive acquisition targets. If we fail to acquire additional capabilities, we may be unable to compete with other companies in our industry that are able to provide more complete outsourcing capabilities and services to medical device companies, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Our business depends on identifying quality suppliers and subcontractors
Our current capabilities do not include all elements that are required to satisfy all of our customers’ requirements. As we increasingly position ourselves to provide our customers with a single source solution, we may rely increasingly on third party suppliers, subcontractors and other outside sources for components or services. Manufacturing problems may occur with these third parties. A supplier may fail to develop and supply products and components to us on a timely basis, or may supply us with products and components that do not meet our quality, quantity or cost requirements. If any of these problems occur, we may be unable to obtain substitute sources of these products and components on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us, which could harm our ability to manufacture our own products and components profitably or on time. In addition, if the processes that our suppliers use to manufacture products and components are proprietary, we may be unable to obtain comparable components from alternative suppliers.
We may fail to maintain our manufacturing capabilities
We use highly engineered, proprietary processes and sophisticated machining equipment to meet the specifications of our customers. Without the timely incorporation of new processes and enhancements, particularly relating to quality standards and cost-effective production, our manufacturing capabilities would likely become outdated, which would cause us to lose customers. In addition, new or revised technologies could render our existing process technology less competitive or obsolete or could reduce demand for our products and services. It is also possible that finished medical device products introduced by our customers may require fewer of our components or may require components that we lack the capabilities to manufacture or assemble. In addition, we cannot assure you that any investment that we make in new technologies will result in commercially viable processes for our business.
13
Although we anticipate that our manufacturing and marketing expertise will enable us to successfully develop and market our capabilities, any failure by us to anticipate or respond in a cost-effective and timely manner to technological developments or changes in industry standards or customer requirements, or any significant delays in capability development or introduction could adversely affect our results of operations.
There are risks associated with international operations
We operate a manufacturing facility in Navojoa, Mexico and are in the process of significantly expanding that facility. In addition, we may seek to build or acquire additional manufacturing or other facilities outside the United States in the future. Our international operations may expose us to risks and uncertainties, including political, social and economic instability, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations and controlling manufacturing quality, product or material transportation delays or disruption, trade restrictions, currency fluctuation and changes in tariffs, regulatory restrictions and import and export license requirements. If any of these risks materializes, our business may be harmed.
The availability and price of the raw materials that we use in our products fluctuates
Raw materials needed for our business are susceptible to fluctuations in price and availability due to transportation costs, government regulations, price controls, changes in economic climate or other unforeseen circumstances. In particular, stainless steel, titanium and platinum are used in some of our products and are in limited supply and subject to fluctuations in price. Our cost of products sold may be adversely impacted by decreases in the availability and increases in the market prices of the raw materials used in our manufacturing processes. There can be no assurance that price increases in raw materials can be passed on to our customers through increases in product prices. Even when we are able to pass along all or a portion of our raw material price increases, there is typically a lag time between the actual cost increase of raw materials and the corresponding increase in the price of our products.
We and our customers are subject to governmental regulation
We and our customers are subject to federal, state and local health and safety and consumer product regulation, including regulation by the FDA, and to similar regulatory requirements in other countries. These regulations govern a wide variety of activities from product safety and effectiveness to design and development to labeling, manufacturing, promotion, sales and distribution. We believe that we are in compliance with the requirements of FDA, of state and local authorities and, as applicable, of equivalent foreign authorities. In the event that we build or acquire additional facilities outside the United States, we will be subject to medical device manufacturing regulation in those jurisdictions as well. Also, our customers’ products are subject to regulation, including manufacturing standards, of other countries in which they sell their products. As a result, we also may be obliged to comply with these manufacturing standards.
To maintain manufacturing approvals, we are generally required, among other things, to register certain of our manufacturing facilities with the FDA and with certain state and foreign agencies, maintain extensive records and submit to periodic inspections by the FDA and certain state and foreign agencies. We may be required to incur significant expenses and to spend significant amounts of time to comply with these regulations or to remedy past violations of these regulations. These efforts could be burdensome. In addition, any failure by us to comply with applicable government regulations could result in cessation of portions or all of our operations, imposition of fines and restrictions on our ability to carry on or expand our operations. Compliance by our customers with governmental regulations and their remedying of past violations of these regulations also may be time consuming, burdensome and expensive and could negatively affect our customers’ abilities to sell their products, which in turn could adversely affect our ability to sell our products and services.
The regulations to which we are subject are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. In addition, future laws and regulations may increase governmental involvement in
14
healthcare, lower reimbursement rates or otherwise change the environment in which healthcare industry participants operate.
Our facilities are subject to environmental regulation
Federal, state and local laws impose various environmental controls on the management, handling, generation, manufacturing, transportation, storage, use and disposal of hazardous chemicals and other materials used or generated in our manufacturing activities. If we fail to comply with any present or future environmental laws, we could be subject to future liabilities or the suspension of production. We cannot assure you that our operations will not require expenditures for clean-up in the future. Although we do not anticipate that these remediation efforts will be material, we cannot assure you that the costs associated with these efforts will not have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Changes in environmental laws may impose costly compliance requirements on us or otherwise subject us to future liabilities and additional laws relating to the management, handling, generation, manufacture, transportation, storage, use and disposal of materials used in or generated by the manufacture of our products may be imposed. In addition, we cannot predict the effect that these potential requirements may have on us or our customers.
Accidents at our facilities could delay production and adversely affect operations
Our business involves complex manufacturing processes and hazardous materials that can be dangerous to our employees. Although we employ safety procedures in the design and operation of our facilities and we have not experienced any serious accidents or deaths, there is a risk that an accident or death could occur in one of our facilities. Any accident could result in significant manufacturing delays or claims for damages resulting from injuries, which would harm our operations and financial condition. The potential liability resulting from any such accident or death could cause our business to suffer. Any disruption of operations at any of our facilities could harm our business.
We depend on a few key personnel
Our future success depends in part on our ability to attract and retain key executive, engineering, marketing and sales personnel. Our key personnel include Mr. Effress and our other executive officers and the loss of certain key personnel could have a material adverse effect on us. We face intense competition for these professionals from our competitors, our customers and other companies operating in our industry. To the extent that the services of members of our senior management team and key technical personnel would be unavailable to us for any reason, we would be required to hire other personnel to manage and operate our company and to develop our products and technology. We cannot assure you that we would be able to locate or employ such qualified personnel on acceptable terms.
We need to continue to attract qualified personnel
Our success will depend in large part upon our ability to attract, train, retain and motivate highly skilled employees and management. There is currently aggressive competition for employees who have experience in the engineering and technology used in our products and services. We compete intensely with other companies to recruit and hire from this pool. The industries in which we compete for employees are characterized by high levels of employee attrition. Although we believe we offer competitive salaries and benefits, we may have to increase spending in order to retain personnel.
We and our customers may be subject to infringement claims by third parties, and we may be unable to protect our intellectual property
Litigation to enforce and defend patent and other intellectual property rights is common in the medical device industry. Although we do not believe that any of our products, services or processes infringe the
15
intellectual property rights of third parties, we may be accused of infringing the rights of others. Our customers’ products also may be the subject of third-party infringement claims, which could seek damages from both the customer and from us. With most of our customers, we do not have formal agreements governing allocation of liability for such claims. Even where we do not have liability to third parties, an infringement claim against one of our customers could result in reduced demand for our products and services or increased pricing pressure. Any infringement claim, significant charge or injunction against our products or those of our customers could harm our business.
We rely on a combination of patent, trade secret and trademark laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property, which relates principally to proprietary manufacturing processes. We cannot be sure that the steps we take to protect our proprietary rights will adequately deter unauthorized disclosure or misappropriation of our intellectual property, technical knowledge, practice or procedures. We may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and defend our intellectual property rights, we may be unable to detect or defend against infringement of these rights and we may lose any competitive advantage associated with these rights.
Risks Related to this Offering and Our Stock
Our stock price could be extremely volatile and, as a result, you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the price you paid for them
Before this offering there has not been a public market for our common stock, and an active public market for our common stock may not develop or be sustained after this offering. Further, the market price of our common stock may decline below the price you paid for your shares.
Among the factors that could affect our stock price are:
r | industry trends and the business success of our customers; |
r | loss of a key customer; |
r | fluctuations in our results of operations; |
r | our failure to meet the expectations of the investment community and changes in investment community recommendations or estimates of our future results of operations; |
r | strategic moves by our competitors, such as product announcements or acquisitions; |
r | regulatory developments; |
r | litigation; |
r | general market conditions; and |
r | other domestic and international macroeconomic factors unrelated to our performance. |
The stock market has recently experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. If a securities class action suit is filed against us, we would incur
16
substantial legal fees and our management’s attention and resources would be diverted from operating our business in order to respond to the litigation.
There may be sales of a substantial amount of our common stock 180 days after this offering, or earlier, by our stockholders, and these sales could cause our stock price to fall
MedSource and each of its directors, executive officers and stockholders have entered into a lock-up agreement with Morgan Stanley on behalf of the underwriters for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after this offering, or the perception that such sales will occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for us to raise funds through equity offerings in the future. A substantial number of outstanding shares of common stock and shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants will become available for resale in the public market at prescribed times. Of the shares to be outstanding after the offering, shares offered by this prospectus will be eligible for immediate sale in the public market without restriction by persons other than our affiliates. The remaining %, or shares, of our total outstanding shares will become available for resale in the public market as shown in the chart below.
Number of Shares | Date Available for Resale | |
Immediately | ||
90 days after this offering ( , 2002) | ||
180 days after this offering , 2002) or earlier in the sole discretion of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated | ||
Various dates beginning in , 2002. |
Beginning 180 days after this offering ( , 2002), holders of shares of our common stock may require us to register their shares for resale under the federal securities laws, and holders of an additional shares of our common stock are entitled to have their shares included in the registration statement, all subject to reduction upon the request of the underwriter in the offering, if any. Registration of those shares would allow the holders to immediately resell their shares in the public market. Any such sales or anticipation thereof could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
In addition, after this offering, we intend to register shares of common stock subject to outstanding options or reserved for issuance under our stock purchase plan. For more information, see “Shares Eligible for Future Sale.”
Our principal stockholders and management own a significant percentage of our company and will be able to exercise significant influence over our company
After this offering, our executive officers and directors and principal stockholders and their affiliated entities will together control approximately % of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, these stockholders, if they act together, will be able to control the composition of our board of directors and many other matters requiring stockholder approval and will continue to have significant influence over our affairs. They may exercise this influence in a manner that advances their best interests and not necessarily those of other stockholders. This concentration of ownership also could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control or otherwise discouraging a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of us.
Provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law may deter takeover efforts that you feel would be beneficial to stockholder value
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions which could make it difficult for a third party to acquire us without the consent of our board of directors. These provisions include a
17
classified board of directors and limitations on actions by our stockholders. In addition, our board of directors has the right to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval that could be used to dilute a potential hostile acquiror. Delaware law also imposes restrictions on mergers and other business combinations between us and any holder of 15% or more of our outstanding common stock. While we believe these provisions provide for an opportunity to receive a higher bid by requiring potential acquirors to negotiate with our board of directors, these provisions apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some stockholders, and a takeover bid otherwise favored by a majority of our stockholders might be rejected by our board of directors.
You will suffer immediate and substantial dilution
The initial public offering price of our common stock will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding common stock. If you purchase common stock in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of the common stock from the price you paid. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience substantial additional dilution.
Absence of dividends could reduce our attractiveness to investors
Some investors favor companies that pay dividends, particularly in market downturns. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the continued development and expansion of our business, and therefore, we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the future. In addition, our new senior credit facility will restrict our payment of dividends. Because we likely will not pay dividends, your return on this investment likely depends on your ability to sell our stock for a profit.
18
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
You should not rely on forward-looking statements in this prospectus. This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws that relate to future events or our future financial performance. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “intend,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.
Some of the factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements are set forth under “Risk Factors.”
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus or to conform these statements to actual results.
19
USE OF PROCEEDS
Our net proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of $ per share will be approximately $ million (approximately $ million if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
We intend to use those proceeds as follows:
Approximate dollar amount | |||
(In millions) | |||
Repayment of our senior credit facility(a) | $ | 28.3 | |
Repayment of our 12.5% senior subordinated notes(b) | 21.6 | ||
Redemption of our Series E preferred stock and our Series F preferred stock(c) | 10.4 | ||
Payment of accrued and unpaid dividends on our Series B preferred stock(d) | 4.0 | ||
One-time payments to terminate agreements with Kidd & Company and Whitney Mezzanine Management Company(e) | 2.9 | ||
Working capital and other general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions(f) | |||
Total | $ | ||
(a) | As of the date of this prospectus, we owed $68.3 million under our existing senior credit facility. We expect to repay this facility in full with $28.3 million of the proceeds of this offering and $40.0 million from our new senior credit facility, described below under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — New Senior Credit Facility.” The outstanding loans under our existing senior credit facility mature between March 2005 and March 2007 and presently bear interest at rates ranging from 5.4% to 6.9% per year. |
(b) | The senior subordinated notes mature in 2009, but we will prepay the notes in full, together with a redemption premium of $1.6 million, with the proceeds from this offering, as further discussed below under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — Senior Subordinated Notes.” |
(c) | Our Series E preferred stock and Series F preferred stock were issued in connection with our acquisition of HV Technologies in January 2002. The Series E preferred stock was issued to investors for cash that was paid to shareholders of HV Technologies, and the Series F preferred stock was issued to one of the shareholders of HV Technologies. Our Series E preferred stock and our Series F preferred stock accrue dividends at the rate of 6% per year until December 31, 2002 and January 4, 2003, respectively, and accrue dividends at 16% per year on a retroactive basis thereafter. We expect to use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to redeem our Series E preferred stock before December 31, 2002, and we will use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to redeem our Series F preferred stock within 45 days after we complete this offering. |
(d) | This amount represents payment of accrued and unpaid dividends on our Series B preferred stock, which accrues dividends at the rate of 6% per year. As discussed above under the first paragraph after the table under the caption “Summary — The Offering” on page 5, the Series B preferred stock will convert into common stock upon completion of this offering. |
(e) | This amount represents amounts payable to terminate agreements with Kidd & Company and Whitney Mezzanine Management Company described below under the caption “Certain Transactions — Certain Services.” |
(f) | From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses, products and technologies that are complementary to our business. We currently have no arrangements, agreements or understandings for any such acquisitions or investments. |
20
The amounts and timing of our use of the proceeds of this offering will depend upon numerous factors, including the amount of proceeds actually raised in this offering, the timing of any acquisitions we complete, the availability of debt financing and the amount of cash generated by our operations. Until used as described above, we intend to invest the proceeds of this offering in short-term, investment-grade securities.
The above description represents our present intentions based on our current plans and business conditions. Unforeseen events or changed business conditions, however, could result in the application of the net proceeds from this offering in a manner other than as described in this prospectus. Our management will have broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds from this offering.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We anticipate that we will retain future earnings, if any, to finance the continued development and expansion of our business. In addition, our new senior credit facility will restrict our payment of dividends. Any future determination with respect to the payment of dividends will be dependent upon, among other things, our earnings, capital requirements, the terms of our then existing indebtedness, applicable requirements of Delaware corporate law, general economic conditions and other factors considered relevant by our board of directors.

CAPITALIZATION
The following table sets forth our capitalization as of September 30, 2001:
r | on an actual basis; |
r | on a “pro forma” basis to reflect our acquisition of HV Technologies in January 2002 and the related issuance of our Series E preferred stock and warrants and Series F preferred stock as if they had all occurred on September 30, 2001; and |
r | on a “pro forma as adjusted” basis to reflect, in addition to the pro forma adjustments discussed above, (1) the sale of shares of common stock by us in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of $ , after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us; (2) the conversion of the preferred stock and the exercise of the warrant as described in the first and second paragraphs after the table under the caption “Summary — The Offering” on page 5; and (3) the application of the net proceeds of this offering, together with proceeds of approximately $40.0 million from the new senior credit facility described in footnote (a) below. |
This table should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Selected Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

(a) | Concurrently with this offering, we intend to replace our existing senior credit facility with a new $85.0 million senior credit facility described under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — New Senior Credit Facility.” |
(b) | In connection with the repayment of our debt, as discussed under the caption “Use of Proceeds,” we will expense $3.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs, $2.6 million of unamortized discount and a redemption premium of $1.6 million. |
(c) | As discussed in the second paragraph under the caption “Description of Capital Stock — General,” our Series C preferred stock converts into a number of shares of our common stock that depends upon the public offering price of our common stock. The pro forma as adjusted accumulated deficit therefore reflects a deemed preferred stock dividend of $ million as the value of the additional shares of our common stock issued to the holders of our Series C preferred stock upon conversion in this offering. We determined the value of the dividend in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, 00-27 by multiplying the number of additional shares of our common stock that are issuable upon conversion of our Series C preferred stock, determined as set forth in the second paragraph under the caption “Description of Capital Stock — General,” by the value that an independent appraisal assigned to our common stock on the date that investors first committed to purchase our Series C preferred stock. |
(d) | In connection with our acquisition of HV Technologies in January 2002, we issued $6.0 million of our Series E preferred stock, and we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our common stock. We will record a discount of $2.5 million to the carrying value of the Series E preferred stock equal to the consideration allocated to the warrants. We plan to accrete this discount over the 12 month period ending December 31, 2002 since we plan to redeem our Series E preferred stock by that date. |
The above table excludes the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants described in the second paragraph after the table under the caption “Summary — The Offering” on page 5.

DILUTION
Our pro forma net tangible book value (deficit) as of September 30, 2001 is $ million, or $ per share of common stock. Pro forma net tangible book value (deficit) per share represents the amount of total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding shares of common stock after giving effect to the conversion of all outstanding convertible preferred stock and the exercise of the warrant described in the first paragraph after the table under “Summary—The Offering” on page 5.
After giving effect to the sale of shares of common stock offered by us in this prospectus at an assumed initial public offering price of $ per share, less the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma net tangible book value at September 30, 2001 would have been $ million, or $ per share. This represents an immediate increase in the pro forma net tangible book value to existing stockholders of $ per share and an immediate dilution to new investors of $ per share. The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis:
Initial public offering price per share | $ | |||||
Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2001 | $ | $ | ||||
Increase per share attributable to new investors | $ | |||||
Pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering | $ | |||||
Dilution per share to new investors | $ | |||||
The following table summarizes, on a pro forma basis as of September 30, 2001, the difference between the number of shares of common stock purchased from us, the total consideration paid to us and the average price per share paid (1) by our existing stockholders and (2) by the new investors purchasing stock in this offering:
Shares Purchased | Total Consideration | Average Price Per Share | |||||||||||
Number | Percent | Amount | Percent | ||||||||||
Exiting stockholders | % | % | $ | ||||||||||
New investors | |||||||||||||
Total | 100.0 | % | 100.0 | % | |||||||||
The above table excludes the outstanding options and warrants described in the third paragraph after the table under “Summary — The Offering” on page 5. The exercise of all options outstanding as of September 30, 2001 having an exercise price less than the assumed initial public offering price would increase the dilutive effect to new investors to $ per share.

(b) | The Statement of Operations Data for the three months ended September 30, 2001 is not comparable to prior periods because we have stopped amortizing goodwill. Effective with our quarter ended September 30, 2001, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141,Business Combinations, and No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and, accordingly, we reclassified certain identifiable intangibles to goodwill and will no longer amortize goodwill and intangible assets that are deemed to have indefinite lives under SFAS 142. Had we continued to amortize goodwill during the three months ended September 30, 2001, amortization expense in that period would have increased by approximately $1.4 million, or $0.27 per common share. |
(c) | In June 2001, we completed a strategic review of our manufacturing operations and support functions. Based on this review and with board approval, we began actions to eliminate redundant facilities. These actions resulted in pre-tax charges of $11.5 million. The charges include employee termination benefits of $3.8 million, other exit costs of $2.2 million, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million and impairment of property, plant, and equipment of $1.9 million. |
(d) | EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income, cash flow from operations or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of our profitability or liquidity. Rather, EBITDA is presented because it is a widely accepted supplemental financial measure, and we believe that it provides relevant and useful information. A calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, since all companies do not calculate this non-GAAP measure in the same manner. Our EBITDA calculation is not intended to represent cash provided by (used in) operating activities since it does not include interest and taxes and changes in operating assets and liabilities, nor is it intended to represent a net increase in cash since it does not include cash provided by (used in) investing and financing activities. |
(e) | Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA to exclude management fees for all periods presented, start-up costs of $5.0 million for the period ended July 3, 1999 and restructuring charges of $11.5 million for year ended June 30, 2001. |

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with “Selected Consolidated Financial Data,” our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements refer to our future plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. These statements may be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans” and similar expressions. Our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, the risks discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus, particularly under the caption “Risk Factors.”
A discussion about the financial results of six of our seven predecessors, Kelco Industries, W.N. Rushwood d/b/a Hayden Precision Industries, National Wire and Stamping, The MicroSpring Company, Portlyn and Texcel, appears under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Predecessor Companies.” No discussion about the financial results of our seventh predecessor, Brimfield Precision, is presented in this prospectus.
Overview
We provide product development and design services, precision metal and plastic part manufacturing, product assembly services and supply chain management. We provide our products and services to each of the following primary target markets:
& | surgical instrumentation devices and components; |
& | electro-medical devices and components; |
& | custom interventional devices and components; and |
& | custom orthopedic devices and instruments. |
Our revenues have grown from $89.4 million in fiscal 2000 to $128.5 million in fiscal 2001, or $149.8 million on a pro forma basis in fiscal 2001.
Company History
During 1998, our co-founders, Richard J. Effress and William J. Kidd, established MedSource to identify business opportunities in the medical engineering and manufacturing services industry. During March 1999, with additional equity capital from Whitney & Co., we acquired seven unaffiliated businesses to begin our operations. The original seven acquisitions were Kelco Industries, W.N. Rushwood d/b/a Hayden Precision Industries, National Wire and Stamping, The MicroSpring Company, Portlyn, Texcel and Brimfield Precision. Our first fiscal period, which ended July 3, 1999, consisted of only three months of consolidated results, which included material one-time expenses for business combination and formation.
Since our initial acquisitions, we have acquired five additional businesses. In fiscal 2000, we acquired the businesses of Apex Engineering, Tenax and Thermat Precision, in fiscal 2001 we acquired the business of ACT Medical and in fiscal 2002, we acquired the business of HV Technologies. All of our acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

Results of Operations
Revenues
In the case of the sale of products, we recognize revenue at the time products are shipped. Product shipments are supported by purchase orders from customers that indicate the price for each product. In the case of services, we recognize revenues primarily on a time and materials basis. Service revenues are supported by customer orders or contracts that indicate the price for the services being rendered. For fiscal 2001, service revenues were less than 10% of total revenues. Revenues for product shipments and services rendered must also have reasonable assurance of collectability from the customer. Reserves for returns and allowances are recorded against revenues based on management’s estimates and historical experience.
Our top four customers accounted for 41% of our revenues for the year ended June 30, 2001, with one customer accounting for 18% of our revenues and another accounting for 12% of our revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2001, our top four customers accounted for 48% of our revenues, with one customer accounting for 21% of our revenues and another accounting for 12% of our revenues. We expect revenues from our largest customers to continue to constitute a significant portion of our total revenues.
We generally do not have long-term volume commitments from our customers, and they may cancel their orders or change or delay volume levels at any time.
Cost and Expenses
Cost of products sold includes expenses for raw materials, purchased components, outside services, supervisory, engineering and direct production manpower, including benefits, production supplies, depreciation and other related expenses to support product manufacturing. We purchase most of the raw materials that are used in our products at prevailing market prices and, as a result, are subject to fluctuations in the market price of those raw materials. In particular, the prices of stainless steel, titanium and platinum have historically fluctuated, and the prices that we pay for these materials, and, in some cases, their availability, are dependent upon general market conditions.
Selling, general and administrative expense includes local support of our facilities for production and shipment to the customer as well as strategic investments in our sales and marketing, operations and quality teams and our corporate support staff.
We have accounted for all of our acquisitions by using the purchase method of accounting. Until our year ended June 30, 2001, we amortized the goodwill and other intangibles attributable to our acquisitions and incurred associated amortization expense of $4.3 million in fiscal 2000 and $5.6 million in fiscal 2001. In connection with our implementation of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles,” we no longer amortize goodwill. Instead, as discussed below, we will periodically test goodwill and intangibles for impairment and record an expense if those assets become impaired, as further discussed under the caption “— Recent Accounting Pronouncements.”
In connection with our acquisition of HV Technologies in January 2002, we issued Series E preferred stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our common stock and we issued Series F preferred stock. We will record a discount of $2.5 million to the carrying value of the Series E preferred stock equal to the consideration allocated to the warrants. We plan to accrete this discount over the twelve month period ending December 31, 2002 because we plan to redeem our Series E preferred stock by that date.
33
As discussed in the second paragraph under the caption “Description of Capital Stock — General,” our Series C preferred stock converts into a number of shares of our common stock that depends upon the initial public offering price of our common stock in this offering. Our net income for the year ending June 30, 2002 will therefore reflect a deemed preferred stock dividend of approximately $ million as the value of the additional shares of our common stock issued to the holders of our Series C preferred stock upon conversion. We determined the value of the dividend in accordance with EITF 00-27 by multiplying the number of additional shares of our common stock that are issuable upon conversion of our Series C preferred stock, determined as set forth in the second paragraph under the caption “Description of Capital Stock — General,” by the value that an independent appraisal assigned to our common stock on the date that investors first committed to purchase our Series C preferred stock.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2000
Revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 were $33.9 million compared to $27.6 million for the same period of the prior year. This represented an increase of 23%, largely due to the impact of the acquisition of ACT Medical in December 2000.
Cost of products sold for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 totaled $26.1 million (resulting in gross margin of 23%), compared to $20.8 million (resulting in gross margin of 25%) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2000. The increase in cost of products sold resulted from the increased revenues over the same prior year period. The 2% decrease in gross margin reflects our acquisition of ACT Medical, which had lower margins than our existing businesses.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $6.4 million, or 19% of revenues, compared to $5.6 million, or 20% of revenues, for the same prior year period. The increase in expense was attributable to our acquisition of ACT Medical. We anticipate selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of revenues to decrease over time as our business grows.
Net interest expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $2.5 million, compared to $3.0 million for the same prior year period. This decrease was due to the lower amounts outstanding under our existing senior credit facility.
Comparison of Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000
Revenues for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 totaled $128.5 million compared to $89.4 million for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000, an increase of 44%. Approximately two-thirds of this increase was due to acquisitions during fiscal year 2001 and 2000, with the other third due to base business growth. The strong performance in our base business was driven by increased demand for both new and existing products from established customers as well as new customers.
Cost of products sold for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 totaled $94.4 million (resulting in gross margin of 27%), compared to $59.8 million (resulting in gross margin of 33%) for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000. The decrease in gross margin during fiscal year 2001 compared to fiscal year 2000 reflected the full year impact of businesses acquired during fiscal 2000 and 2001, all with lower margins than the base businesses, and growth in revenues from lower margin assembly of completed devices.
Selling, general and administrative expense was $26.2 million, or 20% of revenues, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 and $21.2 million, or 24% of revenues, for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000. Of the $5.0 million increase in selling, general and administrative expense, $2.5 million was attributable to the acquisition of ACT Medical in December 2000, while annualized operating expenses for the businesses acquired during fiscal 2000 accounted for $1.1 million of the increase. The balance of the increase occurred largely as a result of our investment in our sales and marketing infrastructure to support future growth.
34
In June 2001, we completed a strategic review of our manufacturing operations and support functions. Based on this review and with board approval, we began actions to eliminate redundant facilities. These actions resulted in a pre-tax charge of $11.5 million. The charge includes employee termination benefits of $3.8 million, other exit costs of $2.2 million, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million and impairment of property, plant, and equipment of $1.9 million. The accrual balance at June 30, 2001 of $6.0 million includes the accrual for employee termination benefits and other exit costs.
Net interest expense was $10.2 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 compared to $10.7 million for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000. This decrease was due to the lower amounts outstanding under our existing senior credit facility.
We incurred charges related to the accrual of dividends and accretion of discount on preferred stock of $9.7 million for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, compared to $8.3 million for our fiscal year ended July 1, 2000. The increase was due to the increase in the amount of preferred stock outstanding during fiscal year 2001. Following completion of this offering, the preferred stock will be redeemed as described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” or will convert into common stock. We will record a discount of $2.5 million to the carrying value of the Series E preferred stock equal to the consideration allocated to the warrants. We plan to accrete this discount over the twelve month period ending December 31, 2002 since we plan to redeem our Series E preferred stock by that date. We also will have accrued approximately $0.4 million relating to dividends on our Series E and Series F preferred stock prior to redemption.
Comparison of Fiscal Year Ended July 1, 2000 and Period from March 31, 1999 (Inception) through July 3, 1999
We began operations on March 30, 1999, and our first fiscal period ended July 3, 1999. This first fiscal period therefore only consisted of three months consolidated results, which included material one-time expenses for our business combination and formation. The following comments present comparisons to annualized results for our period ended July 3, 1999.
Revenues for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000 were $89.4 million, compared to annualized revenues, excluding a one-time payment resulting from the cancellation of a customer contract, of $71.7 million for our period ended July 3, 1999. The increase in revenues was partially due to the acquisitions of Apex Engineering, Tenax and Thermat Precision in fiscal 2000 and partially from increased sales to our top volume customers, especially those purchasing components.
Gross margin as a percentage of revenues for the twelve-month period ended July 1, 2000 was 33% compared to 39% annualized results for our period ended July 3, 1999. The gross margin shortfall compared to our annualized fiscal 1999 results was predominantly the result of four factors. First, significant increased volume of new business led to increased overtime, manufacturing outsourcing, and professional services as well as normal inefficiencies of first run parts. Second, reduced volume in our laser welding business occurred as we refocused the business on medical customers. Third, we provided increased prototyping services, which deliver low or no margins. Fourth, we lost a major contract in 1999. These shortfalls were partially offset by significant improvement in other areas of our business with strong revenue growth driving high contribution margins.
Operating expenses, as a percentage of net sales, for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000 were 22%. There is no relevant comparison to annualized fiscal 1999 results.
Other expenses of $10.7 million for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000 mainly consisted of net interest expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2001, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $14.3 million. Following completion of this offering, our principal sources of liquidity will be cash provided by operations and borrowings under our
35
new senior credit facility. Prior to this offering, our principal uses of cash have been to finance acquisitions, meet debt service requirements and finance capital expenditures. We expect that these uses will continue in the future.
Net cash used in operating activities totaled $3.3 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $2.1 million for the same period of the prior year. The increase in cash used in operating activities over the prior year period is primarily the result of a $5.2 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses, including the payment of the fiscal 2001 management bonus accrued during fiscal year 2000, partly offset by a $1.6 million decrease in our net loss. Cash provided by operating activities was $1.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2001 compared to $6.3 million for year ended July 1, 2000. This decrease occurred because the growth of our base business, acquisitions during fiscal 2001 and a full year of results for acquisitions completed during fiscal year 2000 were more than offset by increased strategic investments in our sales and marketing, operations and quality teams, as well as our corporate support staff.
Management believes that current cash balances and cash generated from operations, combined with the net proceeds of this offering and unused available borrowings totaling approximately $45.0 million under our new senior credit facility, will be adequate to fund requirements for working capital and capital expenditures through fiscal 2003.
Cash used in investing activities was $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures. Cash used in investing activities was $11.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, compared to $22.2 million for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000. The decrease was primarily the result of a $15.1 million decrease in net cash used in acquisitions, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures of $4.7 million. We expect capital expenditures in fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 to be approximately $12.0 million in each year.
Cash used in financing activities was $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $0.9 million provided by financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Cash provided by financing activities was $28.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 compared to $16.4 million for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2000. This increase resulted from net proceeds of $37.9 million from the sale of our Series C preferred stock, partially offset by $9.6 million in debt repayments.
New Senior Credit Facility
Concurrent with this offering, we intend to replace our existing senior credit facility with a new $85.0 million senior credit facility that would provide a $25.0 million revolving credit facility, a $40.0 million term loan and $20.0 million for acquisitions. All loans under the new senior credit facility would mature on the fifth anniversary of the date of this offering. The term loan would provide for annual principal repayments of $4.0 million, $6.0 million, $8.0 million, $10.0 million and $12.0 million, respectively, payable quarterly, beginning at the end of the first full quarter following this offering. We expect that the other terms and provisions of the new senior credit facility would be similar to those of our existing credit facility. Following this offering and the use of the proceeds of this offering, we will have an outstanding balance of approximately $40.0 million under our new senior credit facility.
Existing Senior Credit Facility
Our wholly-owned subsidiary, MedSource Technologies, LLC, has an existing credit facility that provides for an aggregate of $65.0 million under two term loans, an aggregate of $30.0 million for acquisitions and an aggregate of $25.0 million under a revolving credit facility, which includes a sub-limit for letters of credit. At September 30, 2001, MedSource Technologies, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary and the borrower under our existing credit facility, had $18.0 million outstanding under the first term loan, $39.1 million outstanding under the second term loan, $13.4 million outstanding under the acquisition line and nothing outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The first term loan provides for principal payments pursuant to an agreed-upon schedule
36
and with the balance due in March 2005. The second term loan provides for quarterly principal payments of $0.1 million and the balance, of $37.0 million, is due in March 2007. The acquisition line provides for quarterly principal repayment pursuant to an agreed-upon schedule and the balance is due in March 2005.
In July 1999, the borrower under the existing credit facility entered into two interest rate swap transactions, designed to be interest rate hedges, for the majority of the first and second term loans.
As of September 30, 2001, the interest rate on the first term loan was 6.7%, the interest rate on the second term loan was 6.9% and the interest rate on the acquisition line was 5.4%.
The existing credit facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and limitations, including, but not limited to, restrictions on our ability to enter into acquisition and sales transactions, limitations on liens, restrictions on payments and limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness.
The existing senior credit facility contains various events of default, including, without limitation, defaults for non-payment of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit, breaches of warranties or covenants, bankruptcy or insolvency, changes in control, ERISA violations, and cross-defaults to other indebtedness.
Senior Subordinated Notes
In March 1999, our wholly-owned subsidiary, MedSource Technologies, LLC, sold an aggregate of $20.0 million of its 12.5% senior subordinated notes due 2008. The borrower pledged $7.5 million of the proceeds that it received from the issuance of the notes to secure payments that are due thereunder. As of September 30, 2001, there is an unamortized discount of $2.6 million on these notes.
We intend to repay these notes in full out of the proceeds of this offering, as described under the caption “Use of Proceeds.” We are also required to redeem the notes at the redemption price set forth below upon the occurrence of any change in control.
On any redemption of the notes that occurs prior to March 30 of the calendar year set forth below, we are required to pay the redemption prices set forth below (expressed as a percentage of the outstanding principal amount), as amended during December 2001, plus accrued and unpaid interest:
Period | Redemption Price | ||
2002 | 108 | % | |
2003 | 107 | % | |
2004 | 106 | % | |
2005 and thereafter | 105 | % |
Pursuant to the terms of the notes, we are also required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants and limitations, including, but not limited to, our ability to enter into acquisition and sales transactions, limitations on liens, restricted payments and our ability to incur additional indebtedness. The notes also contain various events of default, including, without limitation, defaults for non-payment of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit, breaches of warranties or covenants, bankruptcy or insolvency, changes in control, ERISA violations, and cross-defaults to other indebtedness.
Issuances of Preferred Stock for Cash
In March 1999 and May 1999, we received an aggregate of $24.4 million from the issuance of our Series B preferred stock.
In October 2000 and June 2001, we received an aggregate of $40.3 million from the issuance of our Series C preferred stock. In connection with the issuance of our Series C preferred stock in October 2000, we paid a cash fee of $2.1 million to a placement agent and issued a warrant to purchase an additional 525 shares of our Series C preferred stock to the placement agent.
37
In December 2001, we received an aggregate of $6.0 million from the issuance of our Series E preferred stock. In connection with the issuance, we also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our common stock at $.01 per share. The warrants entitle the holders thereof to purchase an additional 45,000 shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of issuance of the Series E preferred stock that the Series E preferred stock remains outstanding. We intend to use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to redeem the Series E preferred stock by December 31, 2002, which is prior to the first anniversary of the date of its issuance.
Quarterly Results
The following tables set forth selected unaudited quarterly consolidated financial information for the nine quarters ended September 30, 2001. This unaudited quarterly consolidated information, in the opinion of management, includes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These quarterly results are not necessarily indicative of future results, growth rates or quarter-to-quarter comparisons.
We have completed five acquisitions since October 2, 1999, but the quarterly consolidated financial information set forth below is presented on an actual historical basis, not on a pro forma basis for any of those acquisitions. The increase in revenues over the periods presented resulted from both acquisitions and growth in our base business. In addition, during our limited operating history, excluding the impact of acquisitions, we have experienced higher than average revenues during the last quarter of our fiscal year and lower than average revenues during the first quarter of our fiscal year, but we cannot predict whether this will continue.

(a) | The information for the three months ended September 30, 2001 does not include a charge for the amortization of goodwill. Effective with our quarter ended September 30, 2001, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141,Business Combinations, and No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and, accordingly, we reclassified certain identifiable intangibles to goodwill and will no longer amortize goodwill and intangible assets that are deemed to have indefinite lives under SFAS 142. Had we continued to amortize goodwill during the three months ended September 30, 2001, amortization expense in that period would have increased by approximately $1.4 million, or $0.27 per common share. |
(b) | In June 2001, we completed a strategic review of our manufacturing operations and support functions. Based on this review and with board approval, we began actions to eliminate redundant facilities. These actions resulted in pre-tax charges of $11.5 million. The charges include employee termination benefits of $3.8 million, other exit costs of $2.2 million, impairment of goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million and impairment of property, plant, and equipment of $1.9 million. |

(c) | EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income, cash flow from operations or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of our profitability or liquidity. Rather, EBITDA is presented because it is a widely accepted supplemental financial measure, and we believe that it provides relevant and useful information. A calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, since all companies do not calculate this non-GAAP measure in the same manner. Our EBITDA calculation is not intended to represent cash provided by (used in) operating activities since it does not include interest and taxes and changes in operating assets and liabilities, nor is it intended to represent a net increase in cash since it does not include cash provided by (used in) investing and financing activities. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk. Amounts outstanding under our existing senior credit facility bear interest at a floating rate, and we expect that amounts outstanding under our new senior credit facility will also bear interest at a floating rate. To reduce our exposure to interest rate risk, we entered into interest rate swap agreements, and we expect to either continue these swap agreements or enter into similar swap agreements to hedge our exposure to interest rate risk under our new senior credit facility. Under the existing swap agreements, we swap a variable interest rate for fixed interest rates ranging from 6.245% to 6.395%. Changes in the fair value of the swaps are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss in Stockholders’ Equity. The effect of a 10% increase in interest rates would have resulted in an immaterial increase in interest expense during our year ended June 30, 2001.
Foreign Currency Risk. Most of our sales and purchases are denominated in United States dollars and as a result, we have relatively little exposure to foreign currency exchange risk with respect to our sales. Accordingly, we do not use forward exchange contracts to hedge exposures denominated in foreign currencies or any other derivative financial instrument for trading or speculative purposes. The effect of a 10% change in exchange rates as of June 30, 2001 would not have had a material impact on our operating results for the fiscal year then ended.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,Accounting for Business Combinations, and No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption permitted for companies with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized, but will be subject to annual impairment tests. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
We adopted the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Amounts previously recorded as separately identifiable intangibles for acquired work force and customer base have been subsumed into goodwill in accordance with SFAS 141, increasing goodwill by $34.6 million as of the date of adoption. Effective with the July 1, 2001 adoption of SFAS 142, goodwill will no longer be amortized but is instead subject to an annual impairment test. The transitional impairment test that we conducted in connection with the adoption of SFAS 142 resulted in no impairment being required. As a result of our adoption of SFAS 142, our amortization expense will be reduced by approximately $5.8 million or $1.10 per common share for fiscal 2002 and $1.4 million or $0.27 per common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 (based on the common shares outstanding prior to this offering). See note 6 to our audited financial statements.

BUSINESS
Overview
We are a leading engineering and manufacturing services provider to the medical device industry. Our customers include many of the largest medical device companies in the world, such as Boston Scientific, Guidant, Johnson & Johnson affiliates and Medtronic, as well as other large and emerging medical device companies. We provide product development and design services, precision metal and plastic part manufacturing, product assembly services and supply chain management. Through these products and services, we offer our customers a single source solution for their device development and manufacturing needs, accelerated product development time, and reduced costs, allowing them to focus on their core competencies such as research and sales and marketing.
We began operations during March 1999 through the acquisition of seven companies with complementary capabilities and subsequently broadened our capabilities through five additional acquisitions. Since our launch, we have focused our efforts on integrating and growing our business and have made significant investments in our product design and development capabilities, sales and marketing teams, operations, quality systems and information technology infrastructure to support that growth. We currently have 15 manufacturing facilities with approximately 600,000 total square feet and over 1,350 employees.
Market Opportunity
The Market for Medical Devices
According to a report prepared for us by Frost & Sullivan, the global medical device market in 2000 exceeded $170 billion, with the United States portion alone constituting approximately $70 billion. This market has grown consistently over the past ten years due to the continued increase in overall healthcare expenditures resulting from the demographic shift towards an older population and the development of new and innovative products. Spending for medical devices, like the rest of healthcare expenditures, has realized strong growth with little sensitivity to recession.
The medical device market may be separated into many distinct product segments, with the defining characteristic being the medical specialty served. The products in the medical device market can also be broadly categorized as either value-added or commodity products. Value-added products such as electro-medical and orthopedic implantable devices, general surgical instrumentation and minimally invasive surgical instruments typically have lower unit sales and higher profit margins. Commodity products such as needles, syringes, gloves and gowns typically have higher unit sales and lower profit margins. Frost & Sullivan estimates that the global market for value-added products in 2000 exceeded $100 billion.
Initially, we are targeting outsourcing opportunities in select value-added medical device markets: surgical instrumentation, electro-medical implants, interventional and orthopedics. We believe that these markets are currently the most attractive based on their size, growth, profit margins, customer dynamics, competitive environment and need for the engineering and manufacturing services we offer. We selectively serve customers in other value-added portions of the medical device market.
According to Frost & Sullivan, our four target markets accounted for at least $14 billion of medical device sales in the United States during 2000, with each of the target markets individually accounting for more than $3 billion in sales. We believe that the ratio of United States sales to international sales in our four target markets is consistent with Frost & Sullivan’s estimated ratio of United States sales (approximately 40%) to international sales (approximately 60%) for the 2000 global medical device market as a whole. This indicates that the total global market for end-user sales in our four target markets in 2000 exceeded $35 billion.

Imaging Equipment | — MRI — Ultrasound | — X-ray | — General Electric — Philips | — Siemens — Toshiba |
We believe that the market opportunity for medical engineering and manufacturing services is largely represented by the cost of goods sold of medical device companies. Applying Frost & Sullivan’s estimated average gross margin for value-added medical device products of 70%, we believe that on a global basis our four target markets currently represent at least a $10 billion annual cost of goods sold opportunity. In addition, there are market opportunities for us outside of cost of goods sold, consisting largely of a portion of the development and selling, general and administrative expenditures that support the cost of goods sold in these markets.
Medical Device Company Outsourcing Trend
Frost & Sullivan estimates that the growth in manufacturing outsourcing by medical device companies in the United States from 1999 to 2000 was in excess of 18%. Frost & Sullivan further estimates that in the United States in 2000, 25% of the cost of goods sold for value-added products was outsourced and projects that by 2005, 42% of the cost of goods sold for value-added products will be outsourced. Frost & Sullivan also estimates that the United States medical device market will grow at 5% per year over the next five years. Based on these estimated increases in outsourcing and market growth, we expect that outsourcing of value-added products by medical device companies in the United States will grow at 17% per year through 2005. We believe that international markets will experience similar growth rates in manufacturing outsourcing as the United States.
In the past, medical device companies relied very little on manufacturing outsourcing because: (1) the cost benefits of outsourcing were not as important due to the limited cost pressures that existed before managed care; (2) they were unwilling to outsource to a supply base which, due to the small size and limited capabilities of most supplier companies, was not prepared for the heavy ramp-up and delivery requirements of new product introductions; and (3) suppliers were typically diversified across several industries and therefore did not focus on the requirements of the medical device industry, such as FDA compliance and medical quality standards.
The medical device industry has experienced rapid change in the past decade and we expect many of these developments will lead medical device companies to increase their use of manufacturing outsourcing. We believe the key drivers of this increase in outsourcing include:
47
r | the need for innovation and accelerated time-to-market, including design for manufacturability and rapid prototyping to support new product introductions; |
r | cost containment pressures from healthcare providers such as managed care organizations, which necessitate a more efficient supply chain; and |
r | increased competition and industry consolidation. |
As a result of these factors, medical device companies are increasingly focusing on their core competencies in research and sales and marketing, and outsourcing other functions such as manufacturing and related engineering and product development activities. We believe that the medical engineering and manufacturing services industry is highly fragmented with over 3,000 companies, many of which have annual revenues of less than $5 million and limited capabilities that do not satisfy current market requirements. We believe our products and services address this market opportunity.

Our ability to provide product design and development services enables us to secure long term manufacturing relationships for finished devices, sub-assemblies and components. |
r | Drive additional component manufacturing business by continuing to expand our device assembly services. As we increase our assembly business, we have the opportunity to also increase our manufacturing of components because the assembler, or sub-assembler, of a device typically controls the source of the components used in that device. Our manufacturing capabilities position us well to produce many of the components for the products we assemble. |
r | Pursue product line transfers and acquisitions of customers’ manufacturing assets. We believe that the transfer of the manufacturing responsibility for product lines and our acquisition of customer manufacturing facilities will provide a vehicle for substantial growth, as well as a mechanism to develop closer relationships with leading medical device companies. These transactions allow our customers to reduce capital employed and focus resources on their core competencies, including research and sales and marketing. During October 2001, we acquired a manufacturing assembly facility for a product line from one of our major customers, a leading medical device company. As part of this transaction, we signed a multi-year supply agreement with this customer. We believe that product line transfers and asset acquisitions of this kind are becoming increasingly attractive to our customers. |
r | Selectively acquire new companies. We plan to make select acquisitions of complementary medical engineering and manufacturing services providers that bring desired capabilities, customers or geographic coverage and either strengthen our position in our target markets or provide us with a significant presence in a new market. We have an experienced business development team focusing on acquisitions and integrating these acquisitions into our operations. Since our formation through the acquisition of seven companies in March 1999, we have completed five additional acquisitions. We believe that our ability to identify, close and integrate acquisitions is a competitive advantage. |

We intend to continue to build our brand name and deploy our sales and marketing team, as well as to use our information technology infrastructure, to further implement our strategy. In addition, we believe that our scale and resources provide our customers with security and reliability.
Sales and Marketing
Our sales organization uses a team approach that integrates approximately 50 account managers, application engineering managers, customer support managers and project managers. This team approach is designed to allow us to serve our customers while providing a single point of contact through each phase of a project. We believe this customer team approach distinguishes us by enabling us to handle complex projects involving outsourcing of completed medical devices from design to delivery.
We have a group of applications engineering managers who are trained in our various manufacturing technologies and processes. These managers assist our customers’ engineering groups and our sales professionals by specifying the best manufacturing technology for a particular device or component. These managers are supported by our process experts in each of the facilities who provide functional expertise in each of the various manufacturing processes.
Our market development team provides strategic marketing support to our sales and operations organizations. Market development helps to optimize the allocation of our sales and application engineering resources across our four key target markets and aligns their efforts with our manufacturing capabilities and capacity. In addition, this team plays an important role in tailoring our broad product and service offerings, including key account and market strategies, pricing strategies, capability bundling strategies, marketing campaigns and establishing strategic alliances with business partners in each of our target markets.
We invest significant resources to develop the MedSource brand name by participating in a number of medical related tradeshows, including medical design and manufacturing shows in the United States and Europe and by advertising our capabilities in a number of medical device and equipment industry magazines and trade publications.
Customers
We serve leading medical device companies as well as many other private and public emerging medical device companies. During fiscal 2001, we had sales to over 200 medical device companies, and our customers include eight of the largest ten medical device companies (by revenues), including Boston Scientific, Guidant, Johnson & Johnson affiliates and Medtronic. Johnson & Johnson affiliates and Medtronic each accounted for more than 10% of our revenues during our year ended June 30, 2001 and during our three months ended September 30, 2001.
We work with our customers on a product by product basis and often work with many different divisions of our largest customers. To date, most of our new sales have been made to existing customers that, we believe, have typically ordered new products from us based upon their previous satisfactory experiences. The products that we manufacture are made to order based on the customer’s specifications and may be designed using our design and engineering services. Our customers retain ownership of and the rights to their product’s design while we generally retain the rights to any of our proprietary manufacturing processes.
Information Technology
We believe that our use of information technology will be a competitive advantage. We are installing the Oracle 11i enterprise resource planning, or ERP, system in all of our facilities. We successfully completed the implementation at our initial site and are in the process of installing the Oracle 11i software and business processes at additional sites. We also installed the Oracle integrated financial reporting system at all locations and generally convert newly acquired facilities to this system within six months to one year. In addition, we have standardized our computer aided design, or CAD, and computer aided manufacturing, or CAM, software at our facilities.
51
We expect these systems to provide several key benefits to us, our customers and our suppliers. The systems enable the sharing of customer, supplier and engineering data across our company. We believe that this will enable us to better understand and predict customer demand, take advantage of economies of scale, provide greater flexibility to move product design between sites and improve the accuracy of capturing and estimating our manufacturing and engineering costs. In addition, the systems provide greater visibility into the operations of the enterprise through integrated financial and management reporting capabilities. This system also benefits our suppliers by giving them more accurate and timely information about our requirements. Overall, these systems will provide the infrastructure that will enable us to provide additional value to our customers through improved supply chain management capability, reduced costs and accelerated product development.
Manufacturing
To achieve excellence in manufacturing, we combine advanced manufacturing technology, such as CAD/CAM, with manufacturing techniques such as just-in-time manufacturing and total quality management, or TQM. Just-in-time manufacturing is a production technique that minimizes work-in-process inventory and manufacturing cycle time while enabling delivery of products to customers in the quantities and time frame required. TQM is a management philosophy that seeks to impart high levels of quality in every operation. TQM is accomplished by setting quality objectives for every operation, tracking performance against those objectives, identifying work flow and policy changes required to achieve higher quality levels, and committing executive management to support changes required to deliver higher quality.
To serve our market as a comprehensive manufacturing solution for medical device companies, we address customers’ requirements from a “quote-to-order,” “order-to-fill” and a post-order perspective. We have identified the key processes within this structure and are currently implementing standard operating procedures to create a seamless process within our organization structure and with our customers. This approach to customer service is vital in maintaining and developing customer relationships and differentiating us from our competitors.
We intend to continue to offer our customers advanced manufacturing process technologies, which currently include computer integrated manufacturing, CNC machines, laser cutting, injection molding, stamping, dip coating, extruding and our patented precision metal injection manufacturing. Our flexible manufacturing capability allows us to efficiently produce both high-volume products and low-volume products. Our investment in new equipment will position us to continue to provide efficient and flexible medical engineering and manufacturing services to medical device companies.
We operate a multi-facility manufacturing network strategically located throughout the United States and in Mexico. In addition to providing redundancy in the event of an unexpected disaster, this manufacturing network helps us to better meet our customers’ needs.
Quality
We believe that product quality is a critical success factor in the medical engineering and manufacturing services market. We strive for continuous improvements of our processes and have adopted a number of quality improvement and measurement techniques to monitor our performance.
We operate our facilities under a single integrated quality system and they comply with the ISO 9001 quality management standard and the ISO 13485 medical device-specific quality management standard. The ISO 9001 standard specifies quality system requirements for product design and production. ISO 13485 establishes additional, more specific requirements for medical devices in particular. Newly acquired facilities are promptly brought into conformity with our integrated quality system, generally within six months to one year. We believe our quality system also complies with FDA quality system regulations with respect to all of our products, services and internal processes. With our integrated company-wide quality system in place, customers are able to audit select MedSource facilities knowing that every facility that has been integrated into the system is subject to the same quality system and process controls, as applicable to the facility’s particular operations. This system can provide significant time and cost savings for customers, as well as reduced risk of non-conforming products resulting in customer dissatisfaction, product recall or patient adverse events.
52
Supply Arrangements
We have established relationships with many of our materials providers. However, most of the raw materials that are used in our products are subject to fluctuations in market price. In particular, the prices of stainless steel, titanium and platinum have historically fluctuated, and the prices that we pay for these materials, and, in some cases, their availability, are dependent upon general market conditions. In the short term, we generally cannot pass these cost increases on to our customers.
Our current capabilities do not include all elements that are required to satisfy all of our customers’ requirements. As we increasingly position ourselves to provide our customers with a fully integrated supply chain solution, we may rely increasingly on third party suppliers, subcontractors and other outside sources for components or services.
To date we have not experienced any difficulty obtaining necessary raw materials or subcontractor services.
Intellectual Property
The products that we manufacture are made to order based on the customer’s specifications and may be designed using our design and engineering services. Our customers retain ownership of and the rights to their product’s design while we generally retain the rights to any of our proprietary manufacturing processes.
We rely on a combination of patents, licenses, trade secrets and know-how to establish and protect the proprietary rights to our technologies and products. We have been issued patents in the United States and select foreign countries in connection with our guidewire technology, plastic tubing manufacturing processes and precision metal injection manufacturing processes.
In addition, we are a party to several license agreements with third parties pursuant to which we have obtained, on varying terms, non-exclusive rights to patents held by third parties in connection with precision metal injection manufacturing technology.
It is our policy to require all employees, consultants and other parties to execute confidentiality agreements. These agreements prohibit disclosure of confidential information to third parties except in specified circumstances. In the case of employees and consultants, the agreements generally provide that all confidential information relating to our business is the exclusive property of MedSource.
We have an agreement with one of our employees that provides him with an exclusive license to our precision metal injection technology for use only outside the medical industry in the event that his employment terminates. In the event that the employee is terminated by us without cause, the license will be royalty-free. Otherwise, we will receive royalties from any sublicense of these intellectual property rights by the employee. In addition, we must obtain the employee’s consent if we desire to sublicense or exploit this technology for non-medical applications.
Competition
We compete with different companies depending on the type of product or service offered or the geographic area served. Our management believes that the primary basis of competition in our targeted markets is existing customer relationships, as well as reputation, quality, delivery, responsiveness, breadth of capabilities and price. We are not aware of a single competitor that operates in all of our target markets or offers the same range of products and services that we offer. To remain competitive, we must continue to provide a single source solution, accelerate product development time, provide quality products and practices, reduce costs for our customers and offer financial stability.
53
Our existing or potential competitors include the internal operations of medical device companies themselves and other medical engineering and manufacturing services providers. Other medical engineering and manufacturing services providers currently compete in some but not all of the same target markets that we do. We believe that the medical engineering and manufacturing services industry is highly fragmented with over 3,000 companies that have limited manufacturing capabilities and limited sales and marketing expertise. Many of these 3,000 companies have less than $5 million in annual revenues from to medical device companies.
Government Regulation
We are a medical engineering and manufacturing services provider. Some of the products and components of products that we manufacture may be considered finished medical devices, and the manufacturing processes used in the production of finished medical devices are subject to FDA inspection and assessment, and must comply with FDA quality system regulation. Our products must also comply with state and foreign requirements. Also, in order to comply with regulatory requirements, our customers may wish to audit our operations to evaluate our quality systems. Accordingly, we routinely permit audits by our customers.
In addition, the FDA and state and foreign governmental agencies regulate many of our customers’ products as medical devices. FDA approval is required for those products prior to commercialization in the United States, and approval of regulatory authorities in other countries may also be required prior to commercialization in those jurisdictions. Moreover, in the event that we build or acquire additional facilities outside the United States, we will be subject to the medical device manufacturing regulations of those countries. Some other countries may rely upon compliance with United States regulations or upon ISO certification as sufficient to satisfy certain of their own regulatory requirements for a product or the manufacturing process for a product.
Other than as described in the prior two paragraphs, our business is not subject to direct governmental regulation other than the laws and regulations generally applicable to businesses in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including those federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations governing the emission, discharge, use, storage and disposal of hazardous materials and the remediation of contamination associated with the release of these materials at our facilities and at off-site disposal locations. Our manufacturing activities involve the controlled use of, and some of our products contain, small amounts of hazardous materials. Liabilities associated with hazardous material releases arise principally under the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and analogous state laws which impose strict, joint and several liability on owners and operators of contaminated facilities and parties that arrange for the off-site disposal of hazardous materials. We are not aware of any material noncompliance with the environmental laws currently applicable to our business and we are not subject to any material claim for liability with respect to contamination at any company facility or any off-site location. We cannot assure you, however, that we will not be subject to such environmental liabilities in the future as a result of historic or current operations.

Option Grants in Fiscal 2001
The following table shows grants of stock options to our Chief Executive Officer and to the other executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table above during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2001.
59
All options were granted under our 1999 stock plan. These options were granted at exercise prices at least equal to the fair market value of our common stock as determined by our board of directors on the dates of grant. The percentage of options granted is based on options to purchase an aggregate of 1,555,660 shares of our common stock granted by us during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 to our employees, including the named executive officers.
The potential realizable value amounts in the last two columns of the following chart are based on the assumption that our common stock appreciates at the annual rate shown, compounded annually, from the date of grant until the expiration of the 10-year term. Potential realizable value has been calculated using the initial public offering price of $ per share, although we estimate that, in each case, the fair market value of our stock at the time the option was granted was less than that amount. These number are calculated based on the requirements of the SEC and do not reflect our estimate of future stock price growth.

1999 Stock Plan
In March 1999, we adopted our 1999 Stock Plan, which, as amended to date, authorizes the issuance of up to 4,430,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of any stock dividend or other distribution, consolidation, combination, exchange of shares or other specified corporate transaction or event.
In accordance with our stock plan, our board of directors or a board committee composed of non-employee directors may grant non-qualified stock options or shares of common stock subject to restrictions or contingencies to employees (including directors and officers who are employees) and to consultants and directors who are not employees of MedSource or any of its subsidiaries. The term of any particular grant, including any performance-based requirements, exercise price, vesting terms and other restrictions are determined by the board or by the committee of the board that makes the grant.
60
The exercise price of non-qualified options may be above, at or below fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The exercise period may be set by the board or the committee that makes the grant but may not exceed ten years. Stock options will be exercisable at such times and upon such conditions as the board or the committee that makes the grant may determine, as reflected in the applicable grant.
A restricted stock award is an award of common stock that is subject to any vesting, performance criteria, restrictions on transferability and other restrictions, if any, that the board or the committee making the grant may impose at the date of grant. These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such circumstances, in such installments or otherwise, as the board or the committee making the grant may determine. Except to the extent restricted under the grant relating to the restricted stock, a participant granted restricted stock will have all of the rights of a stockholder, including, without limitation, the right to vote and the right to receive dividends. The board or the committee making the grant has the authority to cancel all or any portion of any outstanding restrictions.
Except as otherwise determined by the committee making the grant, options and restricted shares granted under the plan may not be transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
Our 1999 Stock Plan terminates in 2009. As of January 15, 2002, we had outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 2,749,434 shares of common stock under the plan at exercise prices ranging from $12.00 per share to $20.00 per share. Our standard form of stock option contract provides for vesting of options at a rate of 25% after the first year of employment and 25% each year thereafter until all options have vested and become exercisable. The vesting of some or all of the options granted to some of our executives and directors accelerates upon the occurrence of specified change in control transactions.
ACT Medical, Inc. 1998 Omnibus Stock Plan
In connection with our acquisition of ACT Medical in December 2000, we assumed the ACT Medical 1998 Omnibus Stock Plan. The ACT Medical stock plan terminates in December 2008. As of January 15, 2002, we had outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 242,250 shares of our common stock under the ACT Medical stock plan at exercise prices ranging from $3.39 per share to $20.00 per share. The standard form of stock option contract for options granted under the ACT Medical stock plan provides for vesting of options at a rate of 25% after the first year of employment and 25% each year thereafter until all options have vested and become exercisable. The vesting of some or all of the options granted to some of our executives and directors accelerates upon the occurrence of specified change in control transactions. We do not expect to grant any additional options under the ACT Medical stock plan.
2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Our 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was adopted by our board of directors in December 2001 and by our stockholders in , 2002. This plan provides our employees with an opportunity to purchase our common stock through accumulated payroll deductions. We initially reserved 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance under this purchase plan. As of the date of this prospectus, we had not issued any shares under this plan, but we will be begin issuing shares upon completion of this offering. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the purchase plan will be subject to an annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year equal to the lowest of: 750,000 shares; 2.5% of our outstanding stock on that date; or such lesser amount as may be determined by our board of directors.
Our purchase plan will be administered by our board of directors or by a committee appointed by our board of directors. The purchase plan permits an eligible employee to purchase our common stock through payroll deductions of up to 10% of his or her compensation or such other amount as the persons administering the plan may determine. Employees are eligible to participate in this purchase plan if they are customarily employed by us
61
at least 20 hours per week and more than five months in any calendar year and only to the extent that they do not own more than 5% of our outstanding shares.
Unless our board of directors or the committee administering the plan determines otherwise, this purchase plan will be implemented in a series of consecutive offering periods, each approximately six months in duration. Offering periods will begin on the first trading day on or after May 1 and November 1 of every year and terminate on the last trading day in the period six months later, provided that the first offering period will commence on the effective date of this offering and will end on April 30, 2002, or the last trading day prior thereto.
If we are acquired and the successor corporation does not assume all outstanding options under this purchase plan, then the offering and purchase periods then in progress may be shortened so that all options will be automatically exercised immediately prior to the date of acquisition.
The price at which common stock will be purchased under this purchase plan is equal to at least 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day of the applicable offering period or on the last day of the applicable purchase period, whichever is lower. Employees may end their participation in the offering period at any time, and participation automatically ends on termination of employment.
Our board of directors may not, without the adversely affected optionee’s prior written consent, amend, modify or terminate this purchase plan at any time if the amendment, modification or termination would impair the rights of plan participants. This purchase plan will terminate in November 30, 2011, unless terminated earlier in accordance with its provisions.
Employment Arrangements
Upon a change of control, the options held by our executive officers will become immediately exercisable as to 50% of the total shares subject to the options, including any portion already then exercisable. In addition, some or all of the options held by each of Messrs. Effress, Caffarelli, Croteau, Ellerkamp, McWhorter, Polumbo and Snider will become immediately exercisable in full in the event of a change of control at a specified minimum price per share of our common stock. Further, some or all of the options held by each of these executive officers will become immediately exercisable in full in the event that their employment is terminated without cause following any change of control.
We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Effress. The agreement provides for a base salary of $275,000, with a bonus opportunity of at least 50% of his base salary at target performance. Mr. Effress is subject to a noncompetition covenant during his employment with us and for one year after termination of his employment. Although Mr. Effress is an “at will” employee, we have agreed to pay him up to one year of his base salary if we terminate him without cause.
We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Caffarelli. The agreement provides for a base salary of $225,000, with a bonus opportunity of at least 50% of his base salary at target performance. Mr. Caffarelli is subject to a noncompetition covenant during his employment with us and for one year after termination of his employment. Although Mr. Caffarelli is an “at will” employee, we have agreed to pay him up to one year of his base salary if we terminate him without cause.
We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Drill. The agreement, which expires in April 2002, provides for a base salary of $225,000, with an annual bonus determined by our board of directors. Mr. Drill is subject to a noncompetition covenant during his employment with us and for a period of time, not to exceed one year, during which we pay him severance equal to his base salary, less any amount he receives from a new employer.
62
We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Ellerkamp. The agreement provides for a base salary of $178,750, with a bonus opportunity of at least 50% of his base salary at target performance. Mr. Ellerkamp is subject to a noncompetition covenant during his employment with us and for one year after termination of his employment.

We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. McWhorter. The agreement provides for a base salary of $225,000, with a bonus opportunity of at least 50% of his base salary at target performance. Mr. McWhorter is subject to a noncompetition covenant during his employment with us and for one year after termination of his employment.

We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Polumbo. The agreement, which expires in April 2002, provides for a base salary of $190,000, with an annual bonus determined by our board of directors. Mr. Polumbo is subject to a noncompetition covenant during his employment with us and for a period of time, not to exceed one year, during which we pay him severance equal to his base salary, less any amount he receives from a new employer.
Business Conduct Policy
All of our employees, including the aforementioned executives, are required as a condition of employment to read and sign our business conduct policy which includes acceptable behaviors regarding conflict of interest, lawsuits and government investigations, anti-trust, equal employment opportunity, electronic mail, and safety and health.
Employees are required to read and sign a confidentiality agreement, which includes non-disclosure and non-solicitation requirements as a condition of employment.
Cash Incentive Plans
Our management bonus plan provides for annual bonus awards to eligible employees if company-wide target performance is achieved. Awards are based on achievement of pre-determined financial and operational objectives. The plan may be changed or discontinued at the sole discretion of the board.
We are also implementing a variable compensation plan to cover all employees at all locations.
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification Matters
Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our stockholders, directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that a director of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:
r | for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders; |
r | for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; |
r | under Delaware law regarding unlawful dividends and stock purchases; or |
r | for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. |
63
As permitted by Delaware law, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that we must indemnify our stockholders, directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. We have obtained directors’ and officers’ insurance to cover our directors, officers and some of our employees for certain liabilities. We believe that these indemnification provisions and agreements and this insurance are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers. The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
Formation Transactions
In connection with our formation in March 1999:
r | we issued 292,941.18 shares of our Series B preferred stock to J.H. Whitney III, L.P., an affiliate of Whitney & Co., a 5% stockholder, for aggregate consideration of $21.5 million; |
r | we issued 7,058.82 shares of our Series B preferred stock to Whitney Strategic Partners III, L.P., an affiliate of Whitney & Co., for aggregate consideration of $0.5 million; |
r | we issued a note and 48,750 shares of our Series Z preferred stock to J.H. Whitney Mezzanine Fund, L.P., an affiliate of Whitney & Co., for aggregate consideration of $15.0 million; |
r | we issued an aggregate of 452,650 shares of our common stock to Richard Effress, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, for aggregate consideration of $0.2 million; and |
r | we issued an aggregate of 2,374,280 shares of our common stock to William J. Kidd, a director and 5% stockholder, his wife and various trusts for the benefit of his immediate family members for aggregate consideration of $1.2 million. |
At the same time that we issued the Series B preferred stock described above to the affiliates of Whitney & Co., Richard Effress and William J. Kidd, among others, entered into a share transfer agreement with those affiliates of Whitney & Co. The share transfer agreement provides that we:
r | sell all or substantially all of our assets; |
r | liquidate; |
r | undergo a change in control; or |
r | complete an initial public offering of common stock that provides us with net proceeds of at least $40.0 million; |
then, in each instance, Mr. Effress, Mr. Kidd and others may be required by the affiliates of Whitney & Co. to transfer to them a number of shares of common stock that, when added to the number of shares of Series B preferred stock owned by them (on an as-converted basis) would give the affiliates of Whitney & Co., a specified internal rate of return. In no event will Mr. Effress, Mr. Kidd and others transfer more than 1,500,000 shares of common stock to the affiliates of Whitney & Co. pursuant to the prior sentence. Based on an assumed initial public offering price of $ per share, no transfer of shares will be required. The share transfer agreement will terminate following completion of this offering.
Series C Preferred Stock
In October 2000, we issued an aggregate of:
r | 35,000 shares of our Series C preferred stock to The 1818 Fund III, L.P., a 5% stockholder, for aggregate consideration of $35.0 million; |

At the same time we issued our Series E preferred stock, we obtained the consent of certain affiliates of Whitney & Co. to complete our acquisition of HV Technologies and changed some of the covenants to which we were subject under an agreement we had with those affiliates. In connection with that consent, we paid Whitney Mezzanine Fund a fee of $37,500, and we increased by $0.8 million the amount payable by us to Whitney Mezzanine Fund upon redemption of our 12.5% senior subordinated notes.
Certain Services
Kidd & Company has agreed to perform management and acquisition-related services for us until March 2006. In exchange for these services, we paid Kidd & Company a $2.0 million fee at inception and have agreed to pay an annual fee equal to $1.0 million plus a percentage of the aggregate consideration paid by us in future acquisitions. We have also agreed to reimburse Kidd & Company for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses that it incurs, and will indemnify Kidd & Company and its agents for damages that they suffer, in connection with providing these services. We paid Kidd & Company fees of $1.1 million under these agreements during our year ended June 30, 2001.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
Immediately following the closing of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of 70,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of which 6,000 shares are designated Series E preferred stock and 4,000 shares are designated Series F preferred stock. As of January 15, 2002, there were outstanding 6,080,380 shares of common stock held of record by stockholders, options and warrants to purchase an aggregate of shares of common stock, 6,000 shares of Series E preferred stock held of record by 28 stockholders and 4,000 shares of Series F preferred stock held of record by one stockholder. We expect to use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to redeem our Series E preferred stock before December 31, 2002 and our Series F preferred stock within 45 days after we complete this offering.
Our Series C preferred stock converts into a number of shares of common stock that depends upon the initial public offering price of our common stock in this offering. We issued 40,000 shares of our Series C preferred stock during October 2000 and an additional 300 shares of our Series C preferred stock during April 2000. Dividends on our Series C preferred stock accrued at an annual rate of 6% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, compounded quarterly, from the date of issuance until October 25, 2001 and accrue at an annual rate of 8% of the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, compounded quarterly, from and after October 25, 2001. Each share of Series C preferred stock converts into a number of shares of our common stock equal to the liquidation preference per share of $1,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends divided by a conversion price of $15.00. If the value of the number of shares of our common stock into which each share of our Series C preferred stock converts upon completion of this offering (valued at the initial public offering price of our common stock in this offering) is less than $1,300, then the holder of each share of our Series C preferred stock will upon conversion thereof receive a number of additional shares of our common stock so that the aggregate value of the number of shares of our common stock received upon conversion of each share of our Series C preferred stock is $1,300. However, in no event will we adjust the conversion price to an amount less than 75% of $15.00 or issue more than 88.89 shares of our common stock upon conversion of a share of our Series C preferred stock.
Common Stock
Subject to preferences that may apply to shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available therefor at such times and in such amounts as our board of directors may from time to time determine. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Cumulative voting for the election of directors is not provided for in our certificate of incorporation, which means that the holders of a majority of the shares voted can elect all of the directors then standing for election. Our board of directors is divided into three classes, with each director serving a three-year term and one class being elected at each year’s annual meeting of stockholders. The common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption. Each outstanding share of common stock is, and all shares of common stock to be outstanding upon completion of this offering will be, fully paid and nonassessable.
Preferred Stock
Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, our board of directors has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the designations, powers, preferences, privileges, and relative participating, optional or special rights as well as the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of the common stock. Our board of directors, without stockholder approval, can issue preferred stock with voting, conversion or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock. Preferred stock could thus be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of
70
decreasing the market price of the common stock, and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. At present, we have no plans to issue any additional preferred stock following this offering.
The holders of our Series E preferred stock are entitled to cumulative dividends at the annual rate of $60 per share during the first year from issuance, payable at the discretion of our board of directors, and will be entitled to $160 per share on a retroactive basis after the first anniversary of issuance. Upon our liquidation, before any payment on any class or series of our capital stock that ranks junior as to liquidation to the Series E preferred stock, the holders of shares of Series E preferred stock are entitled to receive for each share of Series E preferred stock, cash in an amount equal to the original issuance price of the Series E preferred stock plus all accumulated but unpaid dividends thereon. Our Series E preferred stock has the same preference as our Series F preferred stock with respect to liquidation. The holder of each share of the Series E preferred stock has a limited right to convert only during the 20 day period following our change of control into the number of shares of our common stock that have an aggregate market value at the time of conversion equal to $1,000 per share of Series E preferred stock plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. Holders of shares of our Series E preferred stock are entitled to vote on any matter on which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote, except for the election of directors. On any matter on which the holders of our Series E preferred stock are entitled to vote, they are entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants that were issued to them when they acquired the Series E preferred stock. We may, at our option, at any time, redeem our Series E preferred stock for an amount equal to the original issuance price of the Series E preferred stock plus all accumulated but unpaid dividends thereon.
The holders of our Series F preferred stock are entitled to cumulative dividends at the annual rate of $60 per share during the first year from issuance, payable at the discretion of our board of directors, and will be entitled to $160 per share on a retroactive basis after the first anniversary of issuance. Upon our liquidation, before any payment on any class or series of our capital stock that ranks junior as to liquidation to the Series F preferred stock, the holders of shares of Series F preferred stock are entitled to receive for each share of Series F preferred stock, cash in an amount equal to the original issuance price of the Series F preferred stock plus all accumulated but unpaid dividends thereon. Our Series F preferred stock has the same preference as our Series E preferred stock with respect to liquidation. The holder of each share of the Series F preferred stock has a limited right to convert only during the 20 day period following our change of control into the number of shares of our common stock that have an aggregate market value at the time of conversion equal to $1,000 per share of Series E preferred stock plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. Holders of shares of our Series F preferred stock are not entitled to vote on any matter, except as required by law. We may, at our option, at any time, redeem our Series F preferred stock for an amount equal to the original issuance price of the Series F preferred stock plus all accumulated but unpaid dividends thereon.
Warrants
The holders of our Series E preferred stock have been granted warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our common stock at $.01 per share. The warrants entitle the holders thereof to purchase an additional 45,000 shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of issuance of the Series E preferred stock that the Series E preferred stock remains outstanding. We intend use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to redeem the Series E preferred stock by December 31, 2002, which is prior to the first anniversary of the date of its issuance.
Registration Rights
The holders of shares of our common stock, subject to adjustment depending upon the number of shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of our Series C preferred stock, have the right to require us to register those shares under the Securities Act 180 days following this offering if:
r | the holders of at least 50% of the shares from either of two groups that are party to a registration rights agreement that we entered into in March 1999 make the request to register at least 25% of those shares; or |
71
r | the holders of at least 25% of the shares that were party to a registration rights agreement that we entered into in October 2000 make the request. |
If on the first anniversary of the date on which the holders who are party to the March 1999 registration rights agreement could require us to register shares under the Securities Act, those holders have not required us to effect a registration in which Indosuez MST Partners could participate, then Indosuez MST Partners has the right to require us to register 327,280 shares under the Securities Act.
If we register any of our common stock for our own account or for the account of any of our security holders, the holders described in the two paragraphs above and the holders of an additional 9,815,783 shares of common stock are entitled to include their shares of common stock in the registration, subject to the ability of the underwriters to limit the number of shares included in the offering under certain circumstances. Furthermore, the holders of all of the foregoing shares may require us to register their shares on a Form S-3 registration statement when we are eligible to use Form S-3. We will bear all fees, costs and expenses of any such registration, other than underwriting discounts and commissions.
Delaware Anti-Takeover Law and Charter Provisions
Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of us. Such provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. These provisions allow us to issue preferred stock without any vote or further action by the stockholders, require advance notification of stockholder meetings and nominations of candidates for election as directors, provide for a classified board of directors, limit our board to ten directors unless increased by a two-thirds vote of the board, prohibit stockholders from calling a special meeting and require a two-thirds vote of our stockholders to amend any of the foregoing provisions. These provisions may make it more difficult for stockholders to take corporate actions and could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.
In addition, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. This law prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder, unless any of the following conditions are met. First, this law does not apply if prior to the date of the transaction, the board of directors of the corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. Second, the law does not apply if upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and those shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer. Third, the law does not apply if, at or after the date of the transaction, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Immediately prior to this offering, there was no public market for our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Upon completion of this offering, we will have outstanding an aggregate of shares of common stock, assuming no exercise of options after , 2002. Of these shares, the shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares purchased by “affiliates” of MedSource as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Shares purchased by affiliates may generally only be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in compliance with limitations of Rule 144 as described below.
The remaining shares of common stock held by existing stockholders were issued and sold by us in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. of these shares will be subject to “lock-up” agreements providing that the stockholders will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of common stock owned by them for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus. Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, however, may in its sole discretion, at any time without notice, release all or any portion of the shares subject to lock-up agreements. The shares will become eligible for sale as follows:
Date Available for Resale | Shares Eligible For Sale | Comment | ||
Immediately | Shares not subject to lock-up agreements | |||

Various dates beginning in , 2002 | Shares saleable under Rule 144 (subject, in some instances, to volume limitations) |
Immediately after the completion of this offering, we intend to file a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register all of the shares of common stock issued or reserved for future issuance under our stock plans and our stock purchase plan. Based upon the number of shares subject to outstanding options as of January 15, 2002 and currently reserved for issuance under our stock plans and stock purchase plan, this registration statement would cover approximately 5.2 million shares. Shares registered under the registration statement will generally be available for sale in the open market immediately after the 180 day lock-up agreements expire ( , 2002) or earlier in the sole discretion of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated.
Also beginning six months after the date of this offering, holders of shares of our common stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock, will be entitled to rights with respect to registration of these shares for sale in the public market. Registration of these shares under the Securities Act would result in these shares becoming freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act immediately upon effectiveness of the registration.
73
Rule 144

UNDERWRITING
Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in an underwriting agreement dated the date of this prospectus, the underwriters named below, for whom Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., First Union Securities, Inc. and Thomas Weisel Partners LLC are acting as representatives, have severally agreed to purchase, and MedSource has agreed to sell to them, severally, the number of shares indicated below:
Underwriter | Number of Shares | |
Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated | ||
Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. | ||
First Union Securities, Inc. | ||
Thomas Weisel Partners LLC. | ||
Total |
The underwriters are offering the shares of common stock subject to their acceptance of the shares from MedSource and subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to certain other conditions. The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus if any such shares are taken. However, the underwriters are not required to take or pay for the shares covered by the underwriters over-allotment option described below.
The underwriters initially propose to offer part of the shares of common stock directly to the public at the public offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus and part to certain dealers at a price that represents a concession not in excess of $ a share under the public offering price. Any underwriter may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of $ a share to other underwriters or to certain dealers. After the initial offering of the shares of common stock, the offering price and other selling terms may from time to time be varied by the representatives.
MedSource and two selling stockholders have granted to the underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to 243,750 and 81,250 additional shares, respectively, of common stock at the public offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters may exercise this option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the offering of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. To the extent the option is exercised, each underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase about the same percentage of the additional shares of common stock as the number listed next to the underwriter’s name in the preceding table bears to the total number of shares of common stock listed next to the names of all underwriters in the preceding table. If the underwriters’ option is exercised in full, the total price to the public would be $ , the total underwriters’ discounts and commissions would be $ , the total proceeds to MedSource would be $ and the total proceeds to the selling stockholders would be $ .
The underwriters have informed MedSource that they do not intend sales to discretionary accounts to exceed five percent of the total number of shares of common stock offered by them.
We have applied for quotation of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “MEDT.”
MedSource, each of its directors, executive officers and certain stockholders have agreed that, without the prior written consent of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated on behalf of the underwriters, they will not, during the period ending 180 days after the date of this prospectus:
r | offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock; or |
75
r | enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the common stock; |
whether any transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.
The restrictions described in this paragraph do not apply to:
r | the sale of shares to the underwriters; |
r | the issuance by MedSource of shares of common stock upon the exercise of an option or a warrant or the conversion of a security outstanding on the date of this prospectus of which the underwriters have been advised in writing; or |
r | transactions by any person other than MedSource relating to shares of common stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the offering of the shares. |
In order to facilitate the offering of the common stock, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the common stock. Specifically, the underwriters may over-allot in connection with the offering, creating a short position in the common stock for their own account. In addition, to cover over-allotments or to stabilize the price of the common stock, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of common stock in the open market. Finally, the underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing the common stock in the offering, if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed common stock in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the common stock above independent market levels. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time.
First Union Securities, Inc., one of the underwriters, is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wachovia Corporation. Wachovia Corporation conducts its investment banking, institutional and capital markets businesses through its various bank, broker-dealer and nonbank subsidiaries (including First Union Securities, Inc.) under the trade name of Wachovia Securities. Any references to Wachovia Securities in this prospectus, however, do not include Wachovia Securities, Inc., member NASD/SIPC and a separate broker-dealer subsidiary of Wachovia Corporation and an affiliate of First Union Securities, Inc., which may or may not be participating as a selling dealer in the distribution of the securities offered by this prospectus.
Thomas Weisel Partners LLC served as placement agent with respect to our offering of our Series C preferred stock in October 2000 and received a customary placement fee consisting of $2.1 million in cash and a warrant to purchase 525 shares of our Series C preferred stock. Thomas Weisel Partners LLC does not have any material relationship with us or any of our officers, directors or other controlling persons, except with respect to its ownership of this warrant and its contractual relationship with us pursuant to the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with this offering.
MedSource and the selling stockholders, on the one hand, and the underwriters, on the other hand, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
Directed Share Program
At the request of the Company, the underwriters have reserved for sale, at the initial offering price, up to shares offered in this prospectus for directors, officers, employees, business associates, and related
76
persons of the Company. The number of shares of common stock available for sale to the general public will be reduced to the extent such persons purchase such reserved shares. Any reserved shares which are not so purchased will be offered by the underwriters to the general public on the same basis as the other shares offered in this prospectus.
Pricing of the Offering
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the common stock. The initial public offering price will be determined by negotiations between MedSource and the representatives. Among the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price will be the future prospects of MedSource and its industry in general, sales, earnings and certain other financial operating information of MedSource in recent periods, and the price-earnings ratios, price-cash flows, price-sales ratios, market prices of securities and certain financial and operating information of companies engaged in activities similar to those of MedSource.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors
MedSource Technologies, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MedSource Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in mandatory redeemable convertible stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the period from March 30, 1999 (inception) through July 3, 1999 and for the years ended July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of MedSource Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries at July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from March 30, 1999 (inception) through July 3, 1999 and for the years ended July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Description of Business
MedSource Technologies, Inc. (the Company) was formed as a Delaware corporation on April 14, 1998. For the period from April 14, 1998 through March 30, 1999 (inception of operations), the Company had no employees or other operations. On March 30, 1999, the Company acquired seven businesses (see Note 3—Acquisitions).
The Company and its subsidiaries operate in one business segment and provide product development and design services, precision metal and plastic part manufacturing, product assembly services and supply chain management primarily for the medical device industry. The Company’s operations and customer base are located primarily in North America.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Unaudited Quarterly Information
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-months ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2002.
Stock Split
In January 2000, the Company’s common stock was split 10-for-1 and all share references to common stock have been adjusted to give effect to the split and the balance sheet and statement of changes in mandatory redeemable preferred stock and stockholders’ equity include adjustments to amounts for the prior period to give effect to the split.
Fiscal Year End
The Company’s fiscal year historically ended on the Saturday closest to June 30. Effective July 1, 2001, the Company’s fiscal year end was changed to June 30.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include money market mutual funds and other highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less. The cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates market.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, or market.

MEDSOURCE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of capital leases and leasehold improvements is provided on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related assets or the life of the lease, whichever is shorter, and is included with depreciation expense.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the cost in excess of the fair value of the tangible and identified intangible assets of the businesses acquired and, prior to July 1, 2001, was being amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years based on the operating histories and market niches of these businesses. The identified intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisition of businesses prior to July 1, 2001, consist mainly of customer bases, amortized over 20 years; the value of the acquired work forces, amortized over five years; patents, amortized over the life of the patents; and covenants not to compete, amortized over the life of the agreements. Included in amortization for the period ended July 3, 1999 is a $3.1 million charge representing the intangible value, recorded at acquisition, of a customer contract terminated in the period subsequent to the acquisition (see Significant Customers).
See Note 6—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets for effects of adoption of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards 141 and 142 in fiscal year 2002.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from the use of an asset are less than the carrying amount, a write-down would be recorded to reduce the related asset to the amount of discounted estimated future cash flows, for assets in use, or to estimated fair value for assets held for sale.
In conjunction with the restructuring charges recorded in fiscal 2001 (see Note 13—Restructuring Charges), the Company recognized impairment to goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million and impairment to property, plant, and equipment of $1.9 million.
Deferred Financing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with arranging the Company’s long-term debt agreements are capitalized and amortized over the life of the related debt issue using the effective interest method. Accumulated amortization was $1.1 million at July 1, 2000, $1.9 million at June 30, 2001, and $2.1 million at September 30, 2001 (unaudited).
Organization and Start-Up Costs
Organization and start-up costs are expensed as incurred.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method, which gives consideration to the future tax consequences associated with differences between the financial accounting and tax basis of assets and liabilities. This method also gives immediate effect to changes in income tax laws.

Mandatory Redeemable Securities
Mandatory redeemable preferred stock is recorded at fair value at date of issuance, net of related costs. Fair value of the Series B preferred stock at date of issuance is based on the net proceeds received reduced by the intrinsic value of the contingent additional consideration which may be received pursuant to the Share Transfer Agreement described in Note 10—Mandatory Redeemable Convertible Stock and Stockholders’ Equity. The mandatory redeemable preferred stock is redeemable on the redemption date at its face amount plus accrued dividends as described in Note 10.
The discount to the face amount of the mandatory redeemable preferred stock representing the intrinsic value of the contingent additional consideration related to Series B preferred stock was amortized as an additional preferred return over 21 months, which was management’s estimate of the period before the contingency would be resolved. The additional reduction from the face amount of the mandatory redeemable preferred stock representing issuance costs is being amortized as an additional preferred return over the period from date of issuance until the mandatory redemption date.
Preferred Stock Dividends
The Company accrues dividends on mandatory redeemable preferred stock. Dividends on other series of preferred stock do not accrue until declared by the Board of Directors.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue at the time products are shipped or services are rendered. Product shipments are supported by purchase orders from customers that indicate the price for each product. In the case of services, we recognize revenues primarily on a time and materials basis. Service revenues are supported by customer orders or contracts that indicate the price for the services being rendered. For fiscal 2001, service revenues were less than 10% of total revenues. Revenues for product shipments and services rendered must also have reasonable assurance of collectibility from the customer. Reserves for returns and allowances are recorded against revenues based on management’s estimates and historical experience.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company includes shipping and handling costs in the cost of products sold.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, in the primary financial statements and to provide the supplemental disclosures required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) (see Note 10—Mandatory Redeemable Convertible Stock and Stockholders’ Equity).
Concentration of Credit Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, does not generally require collateral or other security, and maintains an allowance for potential credit losses.

Significant Customers
Customers that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated revenues are as follows:
Period From March 30, 1999 (Inception) Through July 3, 1999 | Year Ended | |||||||||||
July 1, 2000 | June 30, 2001 | Three Months Ended September 30, 2001 | ||||||||||
(unaudited) | ||||||||||||
Customer A | — | 14 | % | 18 | % | 21 | % | |||||
Customer B | 28 | % | 16 | 12 | 12 |
At July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001, receivables from these customers represented 13% and 11%, respectively, of total accounts receivable.
For the period ended July 3, 1999, $3.1 million of revenues from Customer B represent the settlement received from the termination of a contract.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt instruments. The carrying amounts of financial instruments other than the debt instruments are representative of their fair values due to their short maturities. The Company’s principal long-term debt agreements bear interest at market rates; thus, management believes their carrying amounts approximate fair value. Management believes the carrying amount of the remaining loans is not materially different from estimated fair value.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Net loss per common share attributed to common stockholders is based on the net loss for the period adjusted for dividend requirements on all preferred stocks and accretion during the period of discounts on mandatory redeemable preferred stock. The resulting net loss attributed to common stockholders is divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period to arrive at the basic net loss per share attributed to common stockholders. For all periods presented, the impact of the inclusion of potentially dilutive securities related to the assumed exercise or conversion of options and convertible securities was anti-dilutive.
Hedging Activities
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133), in its fiscal year beginning July 2, 2000. The statement requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. (See Note 7—Long-Term Debt.)

Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

6. Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141,Business Combinations, and No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 with early adoption permitted for companies with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
The Company adopted the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. Amounts previously recorded as separately identifiable intangibles for acquired work force and customer base have been subsumed to goodwill in accordance with FAS 141, increasing goodwill by $34.6 million as of the date of adoption. Effective with the July 1, 2002 adoption of FAS 142, goodwill is no longer amortized but is instead subject to an annual impairment test. The transitional impairment test conducted in connection with the adoption of FAS 142 resulted in no impairment being required.

Credit Agreement
The Company entered into a Credit Agreement (Agreement) dated March 30, 1999 with various banks. The Company received $25 million pursuant to an A Term Loan, $40 million pursuant to a B Term Loan, and commitments for $30 million of Acquisition Loans and $25 million of Revolving Loans.
The A Term Loan, Acquisition Loans, and Revolving Loans bear interest at either (1) a base rate (defined as the higher of 1/2 of 1% in excess of the Federal Funds Note Rate and 1% in excess of the Adjusted Certificate of Deposit Rate) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% depending on the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio, as defined, or (2) LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.25% to 3.50% depending on the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio, as defined. The B Term Loan bears interest at either (1) the base rate (defined above) plus 2.75% or (2) LIBOR plus 3.75%. The choice of the interest rate is at the Company’s election. At June 30, 2001, the interest rates on the A Term and B Term Loans were based on LIBOR and were 7.4375% and 7.6875%, respectively. Interest is payable quarterly.
The A Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1.0 million from September 15, 2001 to March 15, 2002; $1.25 million from June 15, 2002 to March 15, 2004; and $1.5 million from June 15, 2004 to March 15, 2005. The B Term Loan requires quarterly principal repayments of $0.1 million from September 15, 2001 to December 15, 2006 with a final payment of $37.0 million on March 15, 2007. The Acquisition and Revolving Loans have maturity dates of March 15, 2005; however, Acquisition Loans have repayment requirements on a quarterly basis based on a percentage (ranging from 2.50% to 8.00%) of the total outstanding balance that began on June 15, 2000. In addition to these payment requirements, the Company is also required to apply some or all of the cash proceeds from specified types of future transactions to repay borrowings under the Agreement.
The Agreement also requires the Company to pay fees equal to 0.375% to 0.750% (depending on the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio) on the aggregate unutilized commitments.

MEDSOURCE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
The assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are pledged as collateral under the Agreement. In addition, the Agreement prohibits the payment of cash dividends and limits the amount of capital expenditures. The Agreement also requires the Company to be in compliance with various financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with the covenants at June 30, 2001 and believes it will be in compliance with the covenants in the future.
Effective as of July 6, 1999, the Company entered into two interest rate swap transactions with a bank, designed to be interest rate hedges for the A and B Term Loans. The A and B Term Loan hedges are for original notional amounts of $24.5 million and $40 million, respectively, and reflect reductions to mirror the required principal payments on the related loans through March 15, 2001 and then reductions exceeding the required principal payments through their expiration dates of December 15, 2003 and June 15, 2005, respectively. Pursuant to the A and B Term Loan hedges, the Company pays to the bank on a quarterly basis an amount equal to a fixed rate (6.245% for the Term A Loan hedge and 6.395% for the B Term Loan hedge) on the notional amount and receives from the bank an amount equal to the three-month USD-LIBOR-BBA rate on the notional amounts on the same dates. These derivative instruments are considered cash flow hedges and are valued and accounted for pursuant to SFAS No. 133. (See Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies.)
In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS No. 133, the Company recognized the fair value of the interest rate swaps and recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $1.1 million to other comprehensive income. During the year, the Company recognized the change in the fair value of the interest rate swaps by recording another comprehensive loss of $2.7 million. An additional other comprehensive loss of $1.2 million (unaudited) was recorded at September 30, 2001 to recognize the change in fair value.
Senior Subordinated Notes
On March 30, 1999, the Company received $20 million in exchange for $20 million face amount of Senior Subordinated Promissory Notes (the Notes) and 65,000 shares of Series Z preferred stock (see Note 10—Mandatory Redeemable Convertible Stock and Stockholders’ Equity). The deemed value of the Series Z preferred stock of $3.6 million was recorded as a discount on the Notes and is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the Notes. The Notes bear interest on the face amount at 12.5% and are due March 29, 2008. Interest is payable quarterly beginning June 30, 1999, and $7.5 million of the proceeds from the Notes was placed in an escrow fund from which scheduled interest payments through March 31, 2002 will be made.
The Notes have mandatory prepayment and early redemption provisions. Subject to the subordination provisions of the Notes, upon the consummation of an initial public offering, unless the holders of the Notes have waived their rights, the Company is required to use 30% of the net cash proceeds to ratably prepay the Notes at the early redemption price. The Notes must also be prepaid upon a change in control, as defined. The early redemption price is 104% in 2001 and decreases 1% per year until 2005 when it becomes 100%. The Company may prepay the Notes at any time at the applicable early redemption price.

8. Related-Party Transactions
Closing Fees and Management Fees
In the period ended July 3, 1999, the Company paid fees and expenses of approximately $4.7 million to entities associated with certain of the Company’s directors and stockholders. These payments were for services rendered and reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with assisting the Company in its organization, establishing its strategy, identifying sources of financing (debt and equity), identifying target acquisitions, and closing the financings and acquisitions.
The Company also has entered into management services agreements (MSAs) with these entities whereby the Company pays fees plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses for management services rendered. Fees incurred for the period ended July 3, 1999 and for the years ended July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001 totaled $0.4 million, $1.5 million, and $1.7 million, respectively. In addition, pursuant to the MSAs, the Company will pay fees based on a percentage of the aggregate consideration of each future business acquisition, plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. Such fees and expenses totaled $0.5 million and $0.6 million relating to the acquisitions made in the years ended July 31, 2000 and June 30, 2001, respectively. The MSAs have a seven-year term with annual one-year renewals unless terminated by either party. Under certain conditions, including successful completion of an initial public offering, the Company has a right to eliminate the MSAs.
Real Estate Leases
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries lease their facilities from related parties. Total rent expense under these leases for the period ended July 3, 1999 and for the years ended July 1, 2000 and June 30, 2001 was approximately $0.3 million, $1.1 million, and $0.7 million, respectively. Future minimum lease commitments at June 30, 2001 in connection with these related-party leases are approximately $0.8 million per year with a total future commitment of $6.7 million.

On January 4, 2002, the Company acquired HV Technologies, Inc. (HV Technologies), a company that manufactures polymide and composite micro-tubing used in interventional and minimally invasive catheters, delivery systems and instruments. The Company paid cash and issued 4,000 shares of its 6% Series F preferred stock, par value $.01 per share (Series F preferred stock), and issued shares of its Common Stock to the holders of securities of HV Technologies and a third party.
To finance the acquisition, the Company issued 6,000 shares of its 6% Series E preferred stock (the Series E preferred stock) and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of its Common Stock (the total number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants will increase on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock by an aggregate of 45,000 shares per year for each year that the Series E preferrred stock remains outstanding and, as a result, if the Series E Preferred Stock remains outstanding for five or more years, the warrants will be exercisable for an aggregate of up to 425,000 shares).
The Series E preferred stock and the Series F preferred stock accrue dividends at $60 per year during the first year from issuance, payable at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and at the rate of $160 per year on a retroactive basis after the first anniversary of issuance. The Company may, at any time, redeem the Series E preferred stock and the Series F preferred stock at a price equal to $1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends.
At the same time that the Company issued the Series E preferred stock, the Company obtained the consent of the holders of its $20.0 million of Senior Subordinated Promissory Notes (Notes) to complete the acquisition of HV Technologies and changed some of the covenants to which the Company is subject under an agreement between the Company and those holders, affiliates. At the same time, the Company agreed to increase by $1.0 million the amount payable by the Company upon redemption of the Notes.
Upon consummation of the Company’s initial public offering (IPO), (i) all shares of the Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D and Series Z preferred stock will convert into the Company’s common stock; (ii) the Company intends to enter into a new $85.0 million senior credit facility and repay all of its obligations under the existing Credit Agreement and under the Notes; and (iii) the MSAs will be terminated. The Company expects to make a one-time payment of an aggregate of $2.8 million to terminate the MSAs. The Company intends to redeem the Series E preferred stock prior to December 31, 2002 and will redeem the Series F preferred stock within 45 days after consummation of the IPO.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 29, 2000
Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
ACT Medical, Inc. (the Company) is a Massachusetts corporation engaged in contract design and manufacturing of medical devices. The Company conducts business with customers throughout the United States. For the period January 1, 2000 to December 29, 2000, approximately 58% and 42% of the Company’s net sales were generated from manufacturing and engineering activities, respectively.
At the close of business on December 29, 2000, the Company merged with MedSource Technologies, Newton, Inc. (MedSource), in which MedSource acquired all of the outstanding common shares of the Company. These financial statements include all activity through the close of business on December 29, 2000 prior to the consummation of this transaction.
A summary of significant accounting policies consistently applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements follows:
Financial Statement Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
In 1999, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Danforth Biomedical, Inc. (“Danforth”), located in Santa Clara, California. In March 2000 this subsidiary was officially merged into the Company. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at the time of shipment. Engineering contracts are based on time and materials and, as such, revenue is recognized as costs are incurred. Deferred income represents customer prepayments on engineering contracts.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
A summary of the activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the period January 1, 2000 to December 29, 2000 is as follows:
Balance at beginning of year | $ | 229,252 | ||
Provision | 300,000 | |||
Charge-offs | (234,478 | ) | ||
Balance at end of year | $ | 294,774 | ||
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable, which is somewhat mitigated due to the Company’s diversity of customers. However, approximately 38% of the Company’s sales in 2000 were made to one major customer. Accounts receivable from this customer amounted to approximately $1,058,000 as of December 29, 2000. The Company
F-34
ACT MEDICAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Included in cash and cash equivalents are money market accounts totaling approximately $1,263,000 at December 29, 2000.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and renewals are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation expense is computed under straight line and accelerated methods to allocate the cost over its estimated useful life. The estimated useful lives of fixed assets are three to seven years.
Goodwill
The Company has classified as goodwill the cost in excess of fair value of the net assets of a company acquired in 1999 in a purchase transaction. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over fifteen years. Amortization charged to operations amounted to $115,640 in 2000. On an annual basis, the Company reviews the recoverability of goodwill by evaluating certain factors such as the occurrence of a significant adverse event or change in the environment in which the business operates or the expected future cash flows.
Investment
The Company has recorded an investment in Seedling Enterprises, LLC (Seedling) on a cost basis. A shareholder of Seedling is also an officer of the Company. In exchange for the investment the Company is providing certain office space of its facilities along with additional office related services. The investment and liability to provide services were recorded at the present value of the fair value of lease space and services to be provided. The liability is relieved as the above described services are utilized.
Gain on Sale of Development Stage Product
In April 2000, the Company sold their development stage product, Flex Needle, to one of their customers for cash in the amount of $500,000.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred taxes results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB 25, compensation expense only occurs if options are granted to employees at prices lower than the fair market value of the company’s stock. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (Statement No. 123).

ACT MEDICAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As of December 29, 2000, the carrying amounts for accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. As of December 29, 2000, the carrying amount of redeemable common stock approximates its fair value as it equals the maximum redemption price as stated in the Stock Restriction and Put Agreement. (see Note I).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

ACT MEDICAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Contingencies
In February, 2001 the Company was notified by its major customer of a recall relating to a product manufactured by the Company. The Company recorded the known effects of the recall as of December 29, 2000. A pre-tax summary of the impact of this event is as follows:
Net reduction in sales | $ | 500,000 | |
Inventory write-off | 225,000 | ||
Reduction in income (loss) from operations | $ | 725,000 | |
As a result of the above, the Company recognized deferred income in the amount of $500,000 for funds received in excess of the settlement amounts.
The Company believes there is a reasonable possibility that other claims could be made in connection with this matter. As a result of the uncertainty related to these other potential claims, an estimate cannot be made as to the amount of possible loss.
Note H—Retirement Plan
The Company maintains a qualified profit sharing and 401(k) plan (the Plan) which covers substantially all full-time employees of the Company. Employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Plan upon attaining age 21. The Plan allows participants to contribute between 2% and 15% of their compensation. Participant contributions vest immediately. The Company contributes an amount equal to 25% of the participants’ contribution up to a maximum of 1.5% of their compensation. The Company’s 2000 contributions to the Plan were approximately $105,000.
Company contributions to the profit sharing portion of the Plan are discretionary and are determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. In no event will the Company’s contribution exceed Internal Revenue Code limitations. The Company’s 2000 contributions to the plan were approximately $231,000.
Note I—Redeemable Common Stock
In connection with the 1999 acquisition of Danforth, the Company issued 400,000 shares of its common stock to shareholders of Danforth and entered into a Stock Restriction and Put Agreement (the “Agreement’’). Of the shares issued, a maximum of 300,000 shares may be redeemed by the holders at certain dates and prices. Pursuant to this agreement, 300,000 shares may be redeemed by the holders of the stock upon a change in control of the Company. As a result, these shares may be redeemed on the date of the merger of the Company with Medsource as described in Note L.
The Company has recorded the value of these shares as redeemable common stock. The value of these shares at December 31, 1999 was $1,067,600. During 2000, the Company recorded accretion of $1,092,400, which is included in interest expense, to adjust the value to be equal to the change in control redemption value as stipulated in the agreement.
Note J—Equity Transactions
At the June, 2000 shareholder’s meeting, it was voted that the Company would split its shares 2.5:1. This vote increased the authorized shares from 2,000,000 to 5,000,000 and the outstanding shares from 1,347,500 to
F-38
ACT MEDICAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
3,368,750 as of June 22, 2000. The stated par value of each share was adjusted proportionally to reflect this stock split. All share and per share amounts in these financial statements, including options, have been given retroactive effect to reflect the stock split as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period.
At the same June, 2000 shareholder’s meeting, it was voted that the Company would increase the number of authorized shares from 5,000,000 to 6,000,000.
All shares of common stock of the Company held by employees and consultants have certain restrictions. The Company has the right to repurchase the shares from the employee or consultant in the event employment or the consulting arrangement is terminated.
Note K—Stock Option Plan
The Company has two incentive stock option plans which permit the issuance of options to selected employees at a price determined by the Board of Directors to be not less than fair market value at the date of grant. The Company has authorized a total of 1,125,000 options to be granted under the plans. The options become exercisable, subject to continued employment, over a four year period and have a term of ten years.
The Company applies APB 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option plan. Had compensation costs for the Company’s stock option plan been determined based on the fair value of such awards at the grant date, consistent with the methods of Statement No. 123, the Company’s total net loss would have been as follows:
2000 | ||||
Net loss: | ||||
As reported | $ | (1,009,863 | ) | |
Pro forma | (1,101,131 | ) | ||
Weighted-average fair value of options granted during the year | $ | 1.52 |
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model assuming a risk-free interest rate of 5.85%–6.39%, an expected life of ten years and a volatility and dividend rate of 0%. For purposes of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of the options are amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period.
The following summarizes the transactions of the Company’s stock option plan:
Shares Under Option | Exercise Price | |||||
Outstanding at December 31, 1999 | 637,000 | $ | $1.60-$20 | |||
Granted in 2000 | 335,625 | $ | 2.40-3.20 | |||
Forfeited in 2000 | (46,875 | ) | $ | 1.60-2.40 | ||

Note L—Subsequent Event
After the close of business on December 29, 2000, pursuant to a merger agreement, all of the company’s outstanding shares of common stock and redeemable common stock were acquired by MedSource in exchange for 33,423 shares of MedSource Series D 6% Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share (preferred stock) and cash payments of approximately $1.0 million to shareholders electing to receive cash instead of stock. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, an escrow account containing 12,675 of the shares indicated above was created for the purpose of applying, if necessary, amounts relating to indemnified claims, as defined. The escrow account will exist for two years. Dividend payments are made upon action of the Board. Upon the occurrence of a qualified initial public offering, each outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted into a number of shares of common stock as determined by the Merger Agreement.
In addition, at the date of merger certain outstanding options to purchase the Company’s common stock, whether vested or unvested, were deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Company’s 1998 Omnibus Stock Plan, shares of MedSource preferred stock. Certain other options that had an exercise price above the per share deal price were forfeited and replaced with options for MedSource common stock.

KELCO INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 30, 1999
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
Kelco Industries, Inc. (the Company) is a manufacturer of precision metal parts sold to customers primarily in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The Company also has sales throughout the United States and Europe. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers.
On March 30, 1999, selected assets of the Company were sold to MedSource Technologies, Inc. (MedSource). MedSource acquired the trade receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, other current assets and the property and equipment and assumed all current liabilities of the Company as well as the Company name. These financial statements have not been adjusted to reflect changes resulting from the sale of the above assets and liabilities. Subsequent to the sale, the Company changed its name to Oclek, Inc. and was liquidated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, they affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Cash Concentration
The Company maintains cash balances at two financial institutions located in Minneapolis. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. At March 30, 1999, the Company’s uninsured cash balance (before outstanding items) was $4,016,511.
Marketable Securities
The Company considers its investments in marketable securities to be “trading securities”. Therefore, marketable securities are recorded at fair market value, and unrealized gains and losses are currently recognized.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Work-in-process inventory includes production costs. As discussed in Note 8, finished goods inventory is valued at an agreed upon cost between the seller and buyer of Kelco Industries, Inc.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on the straight-line and declining-balance methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

KELCO INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
Income Taxes
The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be an S Corporation. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders of an S corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the company’s taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes has been included in these financial statements. The Company has deposited a required payment with the Internal Revenue Service to maintain their fiscal year of April 30th.
Advertising
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Total advertising expense was $52,863 for the period from May 1, 1998 through March 30, 1999.
2. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is comprised of the following as of March 30, 1999:

$13,006,783 | $7,880,288 | $5,126,495 | ||||
3. Available Credit Facility
The Company has available credit with Norwest Bank, National Association, on a $1,000,000 line of credit (secured by accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment and general intangibles and is personally guaranteed by the majority stockholder) with interest payable monthly at the bank’s base rate of interest minus .25%. The base rate of interest at March 30, 1999 was 7.5%. As part of the credit facility, the Company is required to maintain a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of less than 1.0 to 1.0 as well as achieve a positive net income each fiscal year. The Company is in compliance with these covenants at March 30, 1999. There were no borrowings on the credit facility at March 30, 1999. The credit facility was terminated at March 30, 1999.
4. Profit Sharing Plan
The Company maintains a non-contributory profit sharing plan for all employees who are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement and who provided a year of service (1,000 hours). The plan allows the Company to contribute up to fifteen percent of the participants annual compensation, which includes bonuses, overtime and commissions, if any, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. Contributions are determined annually by the board of directors, and are currently funded. The contributions to the plan for the period from May 1, 1998 to March 30, 1999 was $1,140,267.

5. Related-Party Transactions and Building Lease Agreements
The Company leased its office and production space on an informal month-to-month basis at $30,089 per month plus real estate taxes, from Paul Kelly, the 88.3% stockholder of Kelco Industries, Inc. Rent expense for the period from May 1, 1998 to March 30, 1999 was $429,109.
The Company leased additional office space on an informal month-to-month basis at $1,763 per month plus real estate taxes from a partnership owned by the stockholders of Kelco Industries, Inc. Rent expense for the period from May 1, 1998 to March 30, 1999 was $32,842.
Commencing with the sale of selected assets to MedSource on March 30, 1999, a formal lease for all office and production space was negotiated. The leases will terminate on February 28, 2009 with three options to extend the leases for five year intervals. The leases call for, among other items, combined monthly base rent payments as follows:
Years 1–3 | $32,589 | |
Years 4–6 | $36,200 | |
Years 7–10 | $40,244 |
6. Major Customers
The Company had one major customer providing approximately 47% of the Company’s revenue for the period from May 1, 1998 to March 30, 1999.
At March 30, 1999, that customer comprised $568,965 of the accounts receivable balance.

2001 | 47,799 | |
2002 | 12,229 | |
$129,406 | ||
8. Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle
To more appropriately match costs and expenses, the Company changed its method of accounting for inventory overruns and supplies used in the machining process. Previously, inventory overruns were not valued and were expensed when purchased. Under the new method, supplies will be recorded as inventory and charged to operations when used. The inventory overruns have been valued at an agreed-upon purchase price between the buyer and seller of Kelco Industries, Inc. The cumulative effect of this accounting change at March 30, 1999 was to increase net income by $431,078.

Finished goods is computed by discounting the sales value of jobs in progress. At December 31, 1998 and March 30, 1999, the finished goods inventory was valued at 36.45% of the sales value.
Property, Equipment, and Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Taxes on Income

3. Sale to MedSource Technologies, Inc.
At the close of business on March 30, 1999, the stockholders of the Company sold all of their shares to MedSource Technologies, Inc.

The net balance due from the one stockholder who had acquired the land and building and automobile was collected in conjunction with payments from MedSource Technologies, Inc. to acquire the Company’s stock.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Nature of Business
The MicroSpring Company, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on December 10, 1984. The Company develops, manufactures and distributes medical components and devices which service the cardiology market in the United States and Europe. The Company’s products are sold to major medical device manufacturers directly or through distributors.
The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in the industry, including rapid technological change, uncertainty of market acceptance of products, uncertainty of regulatory approval, competition from substitute products and larger companies, compliance with government regulations, protection of proprietary technology, dependence on third-party manufacturers, distributors and key suppliers, product liability and dependence on key individuals.
The Company attempts to limit its concentration of credit risk by securing financially secure customers. Management believes a loss of certain significant clients would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. During 1998, two customers accounted for approximately $6,619,000 or 65% of total sales. One customer accounted for $4,583,000 or 45% and the other for $2,036,000 or 20% of sales, respectively. During the three-month period ended March 30, 1999, two customers accounted for approximately $824,000 or 46% of total sales. One customer accounted for $573,000 or 32% and the other for $251,000 or 14% of sales, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 30, 1999
1. Nature of Business
The Company provides laser-based manufacturing services from its facility in East Longmeadow, Massachusetts. These services include globe-box hermetic sealing (primarily in the biomedical market) as well as laser marking and fiber-based low power laser welding. The Company’s services are sold on a made-to-order job basis. In March 1997, the Company achieved and has continued to maintain ISO9002 certification.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined by specific identification of raw material job costs and standard costing of labor and overhead for work in process.
Revenue Recognition
Sales and related cost of sales are recognized upon shipment of products.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Company policy provides for capitalization of all major expenditures for improvements and for current charges to income for repair and maintenance.
Depreciation
Depreciation, including amortization of assets recorded under capital leases, is computed by using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes and accelerated cost recovery method for federal and state income tax purposes over the estimated economic lives of related assets which are as follows:
Machinery and equipment | 4 to 7 years | |
Tools and fixtures | 5 to 7 years | |
Furniture and equipment | 5 to 7 years | |
Automotive equipment | 5 years | |
Leasehold improvements | Remaining life of lease |
Income Taxes
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company qualified as an S corporation. In anticipation of this acceptance, all remaining deferred tax assets were written off and included in the current tax expense for the year ended December 31, 1997. For the year ended December 31, 1998 and the three-month period ended March 30, 1999, the tax expense represents state taxes only.
Management’s Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Item 17. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as requested by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
II-5
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) | For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. |
(2) | For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
