Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Aircast Incorporated
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Aircast Incorporated as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the period from October 22, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2004. 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Aircast Incorporated at December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the period from October 22, 2004 (inception) to December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2005
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aircast Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (consolidated “Aircast” or the “Company”).
Aircast Incorporated, formerly known as AI Finance Holding Company, Inc., was formed under the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware by the filing of a Certificate of Incorporation with the Office of the Secretary of State of Delaware on October 22, 2004 (inception) and name change filed December 7, 2004. The Company had 3,000 shares of authorized Common Stock with a $0.01 par value at inception. On October 26, 2004, one share of Common Stock was sold to Thomas Weisel Capital Partners, LP in consideration of the payment of $83,250. On December 7, 2004, an additional 999 shares were sold in consideration of the payment of $83,250 per share to T. Weisel and affiliates.
On July 21, 2005, the Company entered into a Plan of Recapitalization. An aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share and an aggregate of 12,492,500 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, were authorized. In exchange for each share of Old Common Stock, the stockholders received 8,325 shares of New Common Stock and 7,492.5 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. At the completion of the recapitalization, 8,325,000 shares of Common Stock and 7,492,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding (see Note 14 — Redeemable Preferred Stock for further details on the recapitalization).
Aircast Incorporated is the parent of Aircast Holding Company LLC (“Holdings”).
Holdings is the parent of the following three wholly-owned companies: Aircast LLC, Aircast Scandinavia AB, and Aircast Asia-Pacific Limited. Aircast Scandinavia AB owns 100% of the following legal entities:
Aircast Europe GmbH |
Aircast UK Limited |
Aircast France Sarl |
Aircast Italy S.r.l. |
Aircast Handels GmbH (Austria) |
Aircast Belgium BVBA |
Aircast Productos Medicos, S.L. (Spain) |

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements are expressed in United States dollars.
Aircast is a globally recognized leader in delivering scientifically based, pioneering devices for the functional management (protected early use) of joint injuries, fractures, edema and deep vein thrombosis (“DVT”). The Company operates production, distribution, and office facilities in New Jersey, Germany, and Hong Kong and markets its products worldwide.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when devices are received by customers in the U.S. Revenue is recognized when devices are shipped to customers outside of the U.S.
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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Significant estimates included in the preparation of these financial statements include provisions made for doubtful accounts, useful lives for depreciation and goodwill and other asset impairments.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. This allowance reflects the Company’s estimate of the amount of its receivables that it will be unable to collect. The Company makes this estimate based upon a combination of an analysis of accounts receivable on a specific accounts basis and historical write-off experience.
7
Inventories
Inventory is recorded at the date of acquisition as follows: finished goods at estimated selling prices less a profit allowance for the selling effort and work-in-process and raw materials at estimated current replacement costs. Inventories at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment were recorded at fair values at the date of the acquisition and at cost for subsequent additions. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense while improvements and replacements are capitalized. The cost and accumulated depreciation of property sold or retired are removed from the accounts and gains and losses, if any, are reflected in earnings for the period. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:
Buildings and improvements | | 30 years | |
Furniture, fixtures and office equipment | | 3 to 7 years | |
Machinery and equipment | | 7 years | |
VenaFlow equipment | | 5 years | |
Molds and dies | | 7 years | |
Exhibits | | 7 years | |
Deferred Financing Costs
The Company capitalizes debt issuance costs, with such costs amortized over the lives of the related debt. Included in deferred financing costs, net at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are $1,669,349 and $2,005,617, respectively, of fees associated with the $55 million term loan, which is being amortized over six years, and $1,251,706 and $1,485,022, respectively, of fees associated with the $40 million term loan, which is being amortized over six and one half years. All of these debt issuance costs were capitalized on December 7, 2004, the date that the debt agreements were entered into. For the year ended December 31, 2005 and period ended December 31, 2004, amortization of deferred financing costs totaled $569,584 and $36,687, respectively.
8
Contributions Made
In accordance with SFAS 116, “Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made”, the Company has accrued for unconditional charitable donation commitments made by recording a liability in the amount of $1,024,100 for commitments made as of December 31, 2005 payable through 2010. The Company has recorded an expense related to these commitments of $691,100 for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are recorded at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. As part of an ongoing review of the valuation of long-lived assets, management assesses the carrying value of such assets if facts and circumstances suggest they may be impaired. If this review indicates that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable, as determined by a nondiscounted cash flow analysis over the remaining useful life, the carrying value would be reduced to its estimated fair value.
Federal and State Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to amounts considered by management to be more likely than not realized in future periods.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Shipping Expenses and Handling Income
Expenses incurred in shipping devices to customers are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative in the amount of $2,442,399 and $173,122 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and period ended December 31, 2004, respectively.
9
Income generated in shipping devices to customers are recorded as part of net sales in the amount of $294,618 and $17,490 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and period ended December 31, 2004, respectively.
Advertising Expense
The Company advertises primarily in journals and through the mail to customers. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $970,876 and $50,208 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and period ended December 31, 2004, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translations
Assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the close of the period. The Company considers all local currency to be the functional currency. Revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted average of exchange rates in effect during the period. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on translating foreign currency assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars are included as part of the foreign currency translation adjustment component of member’s equity.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across different industries and geographic areas in the United States and Europe. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. One customer accounted for 11 percent of the Company’s accounts receivable at December 31, 2005. No customer accounted for over 10 percent of the Company’s accounts receivable at December 31, 2004 or the Company’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 or period ended December 31, 2004.
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash investments, trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable. The Company considers the book values of these instruments to be indicative of their respective fair values. The Company has cash in excess of the FDIC insurance amount of $100,000 as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 in the amounts of $7,281,747 and $8,344,402, respectively. The Company has mitigated the risk by placing its temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions to limit its credit exposure.
10
Goodwill and Other Intangibles
Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. Other intangibles consist of customer relationships, Group Purchasing Organizations contracts, covenants not-to-compete, trademarks, patents, and in-process research and development. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to an annual impairment test on a reporting unit level. Other intangible assets that have finite lives are being amortized over their estimated useful lives.
Other intangible assets which are amortized consist of the following:
| | Years Amortized | |
| | U.S. | | Europe | |
| | | | | |
Patents | | 8 | | — | |
Trademarks | | 20 | | 15 | |
Group Purchasing Organizations contracts | | 15 | | — | |
Customer relationships | | 10 | | 7 | |
Non-compete agreements | | 3 | | 1 | |
In-process research and development | | 15 | | — | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, an Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material. SFAS No. 151 requires that these items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the “so abnormal” criteria outlined in ARB No. 43. In addition, this statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. This statement is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.
11
Derivative Financial Instruments
Under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, all derivatives are required to be recorded as assets or liabilities and measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings or deferred, depending on the use of the derivative and whether or not it qualifies as a hedge. Derivative financial instruments are periodically used by the Company in the management of its interest rate and foreign currency exposures. Derivative financial instruments are not used for trading purposes. The fair value of the derivatives is based upon discounted expected future cash flows based on current economic indicators as calculated by the bank.
2. Acquisition
Effective December 8, 2004, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Aircast, Inc. and Aircast International Sales and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company paid approximately $159,000,000 in cash and approximately $15,750,000 in subordinated seller notes. After giving effect to the amounts paid above and acquisition fees aggregating approximately $12,748,000, the total purchase price for the acquisition of certain assets and liabilities effective December 8, 2004 was approximately $187,498,000. A substantial portion of the goodwill associated with the acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The condensed balance sheet of the acquired assets and liabilities at acquisition date were as follows:
Cash | | $ | 1,575 | |
Accounts receivable | | 12,073,149 | |
Inventory | | 9,523,931 | |
Prepaid and other assets | | 1,435,615 | |
Property and equipment | | 18,782,328 | |
Other intangible assets | | 108,370,000 | |
Excess of purchase price over fair value | | 47,123,592 | |
Accounts payable | | 2,149,593 | |
Accrued expense – stockholders | | 5,081,620 | |
Accrued expenses | | 2,580,977 | |
12
The purchase price of the acquisition has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the excess of purchase price over fair value has been recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2004 to goodwill and other intangibles (see Note 3 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets for additional discussion of intangible assets). The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired company are included in the consolidated statement of operations starting on December 8, 2004.
In the asset purchase agreement, the transaction includes an earnout schedule which entitles the sellers to specific earnout payments over the course of the next 3 years of $5,000,000 per year if the Company attains revenues in the target years. These potential earnout payments are not accrued in the accompanying financial statements as they have not been earned at December 31, 2005 or 2004.
3. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets are being accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets issued by the FASB on January 1, 2002. Under this standard, goodwill is no longer amortized.
