NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010
(unaudited)
NOTE A – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2011, the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income for the three months ended August 31, 2011, the consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010 and the consolidated statements of income for the three months ended August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010 have been prepared by us without audit. The consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2011 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normally recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the financial position, changes in stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the period ended August 31, 2011 (and for all periods presented) have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, filed by us on August 12, 2011. The results of operations in the fiscal periods ended August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the respective full fiscal years.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 include the accounts of AngioDynamics, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, RITA Medical Systems, LLC, AngioDynamics UK Limited and AngioDynamics Netherlands B.V. since February 2, 2011 (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Our business is organized into two reportable segments: Vascular and Oncology/Surgery. The Vascular segment, under the direction of a general manager, is responsible for products targeting the venous intervention, dialysis access, thrombus management and peripheral disease markets and has dedicated research and development and sales and marketing personnel assigned to it. The Oncology /Surgery segment is responsible for RF Ablation, embolization, Habib and NanoKnife product lines and has dedicated research and development and sales and marketing personnel assigned to it.
Our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance based on the reportable segments and utilizes net sales, gross profit and operating income as primary profitability measures. The expenses related to certain shared and corporate activities are allocated to these segments on a percentage of total sales basis or operating expenses basis as deemed appropriate.
AngioDynamics v. biolitec
On September 27, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York granted key portions of our motion for summary judgment in our legal case against biolitec.
We initiated legal action against biolitec in January 2008 seeking to enforce the indemnification provisions of our April 1, 2002, Supply and Distribution Agreement with biolitec and to recover costs incurred by us in defending and settling two patent infringement cases. Specifically, we are seeking to recover the costs of our $7 million settlement with Diomed in April 2008, our $6.8 million settlement with VNUS Medical Technologies in June 2008 and the legal fees associated with the two cases.
The Court’s order was filed under seal. As of this date, the order has not yet been entered as a judgment and therefore does not contain specified amounts with respect to damages, and there can be no assurance that we will recover the full amount, or any amount, of the damages we have sought against biolitec and, accordingly, we have not recognized any contingent gains or receivables with respect to this matter.
The Court also dismissed biolitec’s counterclaims against us. The court denied one portion of our summary judgment motion, which sought to recover additional costs from biolitec, leaving this for adjudication at trial.

NOTE A – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (cont’d)
CEO Transition
On June 13, 2011, we entered into a Separation Agreement with Johannes C. Keltjens, our then President and Chief Executive Officer that provided, among other things, for a lump sum payment in the amount of $930,811 (subject to applicable withholdings and deductions) and continuation of health benefits for a period of up to 24 months. Total expenses of $1.0 million associated with this Separation Agreement were included in “Restructuring and other costs, net” in our fiscal 2012 first quarter income statement. Joseph M. Devivo commenced employment on September 7, 2011 as President and Chief Executive Officer. During the transition period, Scott J. Solano, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, assumed the duties of Interim Chief Executive Officer. Subsequent to the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2012, Mr. Solano has resigned from AngioDynamics, effective October, 14, 2011.
Centros
On August 13, 2007, we entered into a Distribution, Manufacturing and Purchase Option Agreement (“the Agreement”) with a company to acquire the exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture and distribute a split tip catheter for the dialysis market we have named Centros™ which included the option to purchase certain intellectual property associated with these products in the future. Under this Agreement, we pay royalties on net sales of the products covered in the Agreement. In accordance with the Agreement, we prepaid $3.0 million of royalties based upon the achievement of certain milestones. At May 31, 2011, based on lower than anticipated sales results, we reduced the prepaid royalties to net realizable value which resulted in an impairment loss of $2.3 million recorded in “Other non-recurring items” in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2011 income statement. The remaining balance of $383,000 was included in the caption “Prepaid Royalties” on the balance sheet as of May 31, 2011, to be credited against future quarterly royalties due. In August 2011, we sold both the tangible and intangible assets associated with the Centros product resulting in a gain of $201 thousand included in “Restructuring and other costs, net” in the fiscal first quarter of 2012 income statement and elimination of any amounts remaining in “Prepaid Royalties” on the balance sheet as of August 31, 2011.
Closure of UK facility
During the first fiscal quarter of 2012, we made the decision to close our facility located in Cambridge, UK and transfer the production of lasers to our Queensbury, NY facility. We anticipate the closure of this facility to be completed in February 2012 at an estimated total cost of $1.6 million. The first quarter 2012 income statement includes a charge of $295 thousand for costs incurred to date associated with this closure. The charge is included in “Restructuring and other costs, net” in the income statement.
Establishment of AngioDynamics Netherlands BV
|
In February 2011, we entered into an agreement with our distributor in the Netherlands to terminate our international distribution agreement, to purchase relevant business assets and to secure their assistance in transferring customer relationships to AngioDynamics. As a result, we have established a direct sales operation and a business office in the Netherlands in accordance with our international growth strategy. The income statement for the first fiscal quarter of 2012 includes income of $200 thousand, shown in “Restructuring and other costs, net”, related to a fair market value adjustment of a contingent liability related to this acquisition. |
Expiration of our Distribution Agreement Amendment for LC Bead
We sell the embolization product, LC Bead, pursuant to a Supply and Distribution Agreement with Biocompatibles UK Limited, now BTG PLC, which grants us exclusive distribution rights to the product in the United States. The agreement was entered into in 2006 and will expire on December 31, 2011. LC Bead sales were $8.0 million and $6.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively.

FlowMedica, Inc.
On January 12, 2009 we completed the acquisition of certain assets of FlowMedica, Inc. for approximately $1.75 million in cash and a contingent payment based on fiscal 2011 sales of FlowMedica products. The contingent payment of $768,000 was included in accrued liabilities and intangible assets on the balance sheet at May 31, 2011 and was paid in July 2011. Intangible assets acquired totaled approximately $2.1 million and inventory acquired totaled approximately $400,000. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

NOTE D – GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range between three and nineteen years, on either a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit or as revenues are earned from the sales of the related products. We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our intangible assets and review such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Our determination of impairment is based on estimates of future cash flows. If an intangible asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment will equal the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset.
Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but rather, are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. None of our intangible assets have an indefinite life. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in each business combination. Goodwill and intangible assets have been recorded at either incurred or allocated cost. Allocated costs were based on respective fair market values at the date of acquisition.
For goodwill, the impairment test requires a comparison of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the sum of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of that unit. If the sum of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is reduced to its implied fair value through an adjustment to the goodwill balance, resulting in an impairment charge. Our determination of impairment is based on estimates of future cash flows. We test goodwill for impairment during the third quarter of every fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Events that could, in the future, result in impairment include, but are not limited to, sharply declining sales for a significant product or in a significant geographic region.
To determine fair value, we considered two market-based approaches and an income approach. Under the market-based approaches, we utilized information regarding our own as well as publicly available industry information to determine earnings multiples and sales multiples. Under the income approach, we determined fair value based on estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, which reflects the overall level of inherent risk of a

reporting unit and the rate of return an outside investor would expect to earn. We determined the discounted cash flow as the best indicator to determine fair value.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, operating margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others. Solely for purposes of establishing inputs for the fair value calculations, we assumed that the current economic conditions would continue through fiscal year 2012, followed by a recovery thereafter. In addition, we applied gross margin assumptions consistent with our historical trends at various revenue levels and used an EBITDA exit multiple of 6.0 and 7.0 to calculate the terminal value of the Vascular and Oncology/Surgery reporting units, respectively, which was also consistent with the prior year. In addition, we used a discount rate of 18% and 20% to calculate the fair value of our Vascular and Oncology/Surgery reporting units, respectively. Discount rates of 21%, 15% and 18%, were used in the prior year for the Peripheral Vascular, Access and Oncology/Surgery, respectively.
Since November 2008, our stock market capitalization has at times been lower than our shareholders’ equity or book value. However, our reporting units have continued to generate significant cash flow from their operations, and we expect that they will continue to do so in fiscal 2012 and beyond. Furthermore, given the relatively small difference between our stock price and our book value per share, we believe that a reasonable potential buyer would offer a control premium for our business that would adequately cover the difference between our trading prices and our book value.
We completed our annual goodwill impairment test by reporting unit as of December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, our reporting units were the same as our reportable segments. We determined our reporting units in accordance with FASB accounting guidance. Our assessment of goodwill impairment indicated that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded its carrying value and therefore goodwill in each of the reporting units was not impaired. The fair value of Vascular and Oncology/Surgery exceeded its carrying value by 4% and 13%, respectively. The sum of the fair values of the reporting units was reconciled to our current market capitalization (based upon our stock price) plus an estimated control premium of approximately 9% as of December 31, 2010.
In addition, as a result of the expiration of the LC Bead distribution agreement on December 31, 2011 and our revised expectations of the segment, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test of the Oncology/Surgery segment as of April 30, 2011. Significant assumptions included an EBITDA exit multiple of 7.0 to calculate the terminal value of the Oncology/Surgery reporting unit, which was consistent with previous valuations. In addition, we used a discount rate 22.5% to calculate the fair value compared to 20% in the December valuation. Our assessment of goodwill impairment indicated that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 14% and therefore goodwill was not impaired.
There was no change in goodwill by segment, shown below, between May 31, 2011 and August 31, 2011.
| | | | |
Vascular | | $ | 107,966 | |
Oncology/Surgery | | | 53,985 | |
| | | | |
| | $ | 161,951 | |
| | | | |
Even though we determined that there was no goodwill impairment of the Vascular segment as of December 31, 2010, and the Oncology/Surgery segment as of December 31, 2010 and April 30, 2011, the future occurrence of a potential indicator of impairment, such as a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climate, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, a material negative change in relationships with significant customers, strategic decisions made in response to economic or competitive conditions, loss of key personnel or a more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or disposed of, would require an interim assessment for one or both of the reporting units prior to the next required annual assessment as of December 31, 2011. It is not possible at this time to determine if any such future impairment charge would result or, if it does, whether such charge would be material.

NOTE F – INCOME TAXES
Our effective income tax rate for the three month periods ending August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010 was 35% and 36%, respectively. The current quarter reflects a benefit from the R&D tax credit which expired December 31, 2009 and was not renewed until our fiscal third quarter of 2011 when it was retroactively extended from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2011.
NOTE G – EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without consideration of potential common stock. Diluted earnings per share further includes the dilutive effect of potential common stock consisting of stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units, provided that the inclusion of such securities is not antidilutive.
The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the weighted-average number of common shares:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended | |
| | Aug 31, 2011 | | | Aug 31, 2010 | |
Basic | | | 25,024,117 | | | | 24,754,808 | |
Effect of dilutive securities | | | 173,029 | | | | 277,646 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Diluted | | | 25,197,146 | | | | 25,032,454 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share are options and restricted stock awards issued to employees and non-employees to purchase 1,946,509 shares of common stock for the three months ended August 31, 2011 and options and restricted stock awards issued to employees and non-employees to purchase 2,118,217 shares of common stock for the three months ended August 31, 2010, as their inclusion would be antidilutive. The exercise prices of these options and restricted stock awards were between $0 and $53.92 at August 31, 2011.
NOTE H – SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Our business is organized into two reportable segments: Vascular and Oncology/Surgery. The Vascular segment, under the direction of a general manager, is responsible for products targeting the venous intervention, dialysis access, thrombus management and peripheral disease markets and has dedicated research and development and sales and marketing personnel assigned to it. The Oncology /Surgery segment is responsible for RF Ablation, embolization, Habib and NanoKnife product lines and has dedicated research and development and sales and marketing personnel assigned to it.

NOTE I – FAIR VALUE
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, accounts payable, short-term and long-term debt and two interest rate swap agreements. The carrying amount of these instruments approximates fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturities or, with respect to our debt and related interest rate swaps, variable interest rates associated with these instruments. The interest rate swap agreements have been recorded at their fair value based on a valuation received from an independent third party. Marketable securities are carried at their fair value as determined by quoted market prices.
Effective June 1, 2008, we adopted an accounting policy regarding fair value. Under this policy, fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This policy establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The policy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value which are provided in the table below. The adoption of this policy had no impact on our financial statements other than the disclosures presented herein.
| | |
Level 1 | | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets include bank time deposits, money market funds, mutual funds and U.S. Treasury securities that are traded in an active exchange market. |
| |
Level 2 | �� | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets Include US government securities and corporate bonds. When quoted market prices are unobservable, we obtain pricing information from an independent pricing vendor. The pricing vendor uses various pricing models for each asset class that are consistent with what other market participants would use. The inputs and assumptions to the model of the pricing vendor are derived from market observable sources including: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and other market-related data. Since many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the methodology of the pricing vendor uses available information as applicable such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing. The pricing vendor considers all available market observable inputs in determining the evaluation for a security. Thus, certain securities may not be priced using quoted prices, but rather determined from market observable information. These investments are included in Level 2 and primarily comprise our portfolio of corporate and government fixed income securities. Additionally included in Level 2 are interest rate swap agreements which are valued using a mid-market valuation model. |
| |
Level 3 | | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category currently only includes auction rate securities where independent pricing information was not able to be obtained. Our investments in auction-rate securities were classified as Level 3 as quoted prices were unavailable since these auction rate securities issued by New York state and local government authorities failed auction. Due to limited market information, we utilized a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model to derive an estimate of fair value for all periods presented. The assumptions used in preparing the DCF model included estimates with respect to the amount and timing of future interest and principal payments, forward projections of the interest rate benchmarks, the probability of full repayment of the principal considering the credit quality and guarantees in place, and the rate of return required by investors to own such securities given the current liquidity risk associated with auction-rate securities. |

We are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates. To reduce this risk, we periodically enter into certain derivative financial instruments to hedge the underlying economic exposure. We use derivative instruments as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. The derivative instruments used are floating-to-fixed rate interest rate swaps, which are subject to cash flow hedge accounting treatment. We recognized interest expense of $123,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2011 and interest expense of $191,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2010 on the cash flow hedge.
In accordance with authoritative guidance on Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities, as amended, our 2002 interest rate swap agreement qualifies for hedge accounting under GAAP and the 2006 interest rate swap agreement does not. Both are presented in the consolidated financial statements at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are either recognized periodically in income or in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) depending on whether the derivative financial instrument qualifies for hedge accounting and, if so, whether it qualifies as a fair value or cash flow hedge. Generally, the changes in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as fair value hedges are recorded in income along with the portions of the changes in the fair value of hedged items that relate to the hedged risks. Changes in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges, to the extent they are effective as hedges, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

NOTE J – MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Marketable securities, which are principally government agency bonds, auction rate investments and corporate commercial paper, are classified as “available-for-sale securities” in accordance with authoritative guidance issued by FASB and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from operations and reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of the related tax effects, in stockholders’ equity. Cost is determined using the specific identification method. We hold investments in auction rate securities in order to generate higher than typical money market rate investment returns. Auction rate securities typically are high credit quality, generally achieved with municipal bond insurance. Credit risks are eased by the historical track record of bond insurers, which back a majority of this market. Sell orders for any security traded through an auction process could exceed bids and, in such cases, the auction fails and we may be unable to liquidate our position in the securities in the near term. As of August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010, we had $1.85 million in investments in two auction rate securities issued by New York state and local government authorities that failed auctions. The authorities are current in their interest payments on the securities.
Marketable securities as of August 31, 2011 consisted of the following:

NOTE K – LITIGATION
AngioDynamics v. biolitec
On September 27, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York granted key portions of our motion for summary judgment in our legal case against biolitec.
We initiated legal action against biolitec in January 2008 seeking to enforce the indemnification provisions of our April 1, 2002, Supply and Distribution Agreement with biolitec and to recover costs incurred by us in defending and settling two patent infringement cases. Specifically, we are seeking to recover the costs of our $7 million settlement with Diomed in April 2008, our $6.8 million settlement with VNUS Medical Technologies in June 2008 and the legal fees associated with the two cases.
The Court’s order was filed under seal. As of this date, the order has not yet been entered as a judgment and therefore does not contain specified amounts with respect to damages, and there can be no assurance that we will recover the full amount, or any amount, of the damages we have sought against biolitec and, accordingly, we have not recognized any contingent gains or related receivables with respect to this matter.
The Court also dismissed biolitec’s counterclaims against us. The court denied one portion of our summary judgment motion, which sought to recover additional costs from biolitec, leaving this for adjudication at trial.
We are party to other legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. We believe that any liability resulting from any currently pending litigation will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

NOTE L – RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In October 2009, the FASB updated the revenue recognition accounting guidance relating to the accounting treatment for revenue arrangements that involve more than one deliverable or unit of accounting. The updated guidance allows companies to allocate arrangement considerations in multiple deliverable arrangements in a manner that better reflects the economics of the transaction by revising certain thresholds for separation, and providing criteria for allocation of revenue among deliverables. The updated guidance is effective for arrangements entered into in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (our 2012 fiscal year), but may be adopted early. We chose early adoption effective with the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The adoption had no material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB updated the accounting guidance relating to certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. The updated guidance clarifies the accounting for products that include both tangible product and software elements. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010 (our 2012 fiscal year), but companies are required to adopt these amendments in the same period as the amendments relating to revenue arrangements that involve more than one deliverable or unit of accounting. Therefore, we adopted the amendment effective with the third quarter of fiscal 2010. The adoption had no material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2010, the FASB updated the accounting guidance relating to the annual goodwill impairment test. The updated guidance requires companies to perform the second step of the impairment test to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any, when it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit is zero or negative. In considering whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity shall evaluate whether there are adverse qualitative factors. The updated guidance is effective beginning in our fiscal 2012 year. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2010, the FASB updated the accounting guidance relating to the disclosure of supplementary pro forma information for business combinations. The updated guidance requires companies to provide additional comparative pro forma financial information along with the nature and amount of any material nonrecurring pro forma adjustments related to the business combination. The updated guidance is effective for business combinations which have an acquisition date in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010 (our 2012 fiscal year). The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB updated the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The updated guidance requires companies to disclose separately the investments that transfer in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and the reasons for those transfers. Additionally, in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), companies should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. The updated guidance was effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 (our 2011 fiscal first quarter), except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the Level 3 reconciliation, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 (our 2012 fiscal year). We have provided the additional disclosures herein.
In May 2011, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to fair value measurements. The updated guidance results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 (the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2012). We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB updated the disclosure requirements for comprehensive income. The updated guidance requires companies to disclose the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance also requires reclassification adjustments between net income and other comprehensive income to be shown on the face of the statements. The updated guidance does not affect how earnings per share is calculated or presented. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 (the fourth quarter of our fiscal 2012). We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010
(unaudited)
NOTE L – RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (cont’d)
In September 2011, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to testing goodwill for impairment. This update permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value before applying the two-step goodwill impairment model that is currently in place. If it is determined through the qualitative assessment that a reporting unit's fair value is more likely than not greater than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. This update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 (our fiscal year 2013) however, early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following information should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and other information included elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q, including the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements regarding AngioDynamics’ expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, capital expenditures, products, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management for future operations, as well as statements that include the words such as “expects,” “reaffirms” “intends,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” or variations of such words and similar expressions, are forward-looking statements. These forward looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Investors are cautioned that actual events or results may differ from our expectations. Factors that may affect our actual results achieved include, without limitation, our ability to develop existing and new products, future actions by the FDA or other regulatory agencies, results of pending or future clinical trials, the results of ongoing litigation, overall economic conditions, general market conditions, market acceptance, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, the effects on pricing from group purchasing organizations and competition, as well as our ability to integrate purchased businesses. Other risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the factors described from time to time in our reports filed with the SEC, including our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011.
Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved. Any forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made. AngioDynamics disclaims any obligation to update the forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date stated, or if no date is stated, as of the date of this document.
Overview
We are a provider of innovative medical devices used in minimally invasive, image-guided procedures to treat peripheral vascular disease, or PVD, and local oncology therapy options for treating cancer, including radiofrequency ablation, or RFA, systems, embolization products for treating benign and malignant tumors and surgical resection systems, including NanoKnife Ablation Systems. We design, develop, manufacture and market a broad line of therapeutic and diagnostic devices that enable interventional physicians (interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, surgical oncologists and others) to treat PVD, tumors, and other non-coronary diseases. Unlike several of our competitors that focus on the treatment of coronary diseases, we believe that we are the only company whose primary focus is to offer a comprehensive product line for the interventional treatment of PVD, tumors and other non-coronary diseases.
Our business is organized into two reportable segments: Vascular and Oncology/Surgery. The Vascular segment, under the direction of a general manager, is responsible for products targeting the venous intervention, dialysis access, thrombus management and peripheral disease markets and has dedicated research and development and sales and marketing personnel assigned to it. The Oncology /Surgery segment is responsible for RF Ablation, embolization, Habib and NanoKnife product lines and has dedicated research and development and sales and marketing personnel assigned to it.
We sell our broad line of quality devices in the United States through a direct sales force and outside the U.S. through a combination of direct sales and distributor relationships. For the three months ended August 31, 2011 approximately 13% of our net sales were from markets outside the United States compared with 12% in the three months ended August 31, 2010.
Our growth depends in large part on the continuous introduction of new and innovative products, together with ongoing enhancements to our existing products, through internal product development, technology licensing and strategic alliances. We recognize the importance of, and intend to continue to make investments in, research and development. For the three months ended August 31, 2011, our research and development (“R&D”) expenditures were $5.6 million, which represented 10.3% of net sales. This is compared to $5.2 million in the prior year period which constituted 10.2% of net sales. We expect that our R&D expenditures will
21
be between 10% and 11% of net sales in fiscal 2012 primarily due to increased process engineering costs for our vascular products and investment in our NanoKnife technology. However, downturns in our business could cause us to reduce our R&D spending.
Except to the extent we can further use our cash and short term investments or our equity securities as acquisition capital, we will require additional equity or debt financing to fund any future significant acquisitions.
In recent years, we expanded our manufacturing and warehousing facilities in Queensbury, New York, to provide us with significantly greater manufacturing and warehousing capacity and to accommodate additional research, development and administrative requirements. We are not currently operating our manufacturing facilities at full capacity. In July 2009, we entered into an agreement to lease, for a ten year period plus 2 five year renewal options, a 52,500 square foot office building in Latham, New York. We commenced occupancy of the facility in Latham in March 2010.
Our ability to further increase our profitability will depend in part on improving gross profit margins. Factors such as changes in our product mix, new technologies and unforeseen price pressures may cause our margins to grow at a slower rate than we have anticipated, or to decline.
Recent Developments
Amendment of AngioDynamics’ 2004 Stock and Incentive Award Plan
On October 5, 2011, we amended the 2004 Stock and Incentive Award Plan to increase the maximum number of shares of our common stock with respect to which stock options can be granted during any calendar year to any employee from 200,000 shares to 500,000 shares.
AngioDynamics v. biolitec
On September 27, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York granted key portions of our motion for summary judgment in our legal case against biolitec.
We initiated legal action against biolitec in January 2008 seeking to enforce the indemnification provisions of our April 1, 2002, Supply and Distribution Agreement with biolitec and to recover costs incurred by us in defending and settling two patent infringement cases. Specifically, we are seeking to recover the costs of our $7 million settlement with Diomed in April 2008, our $6.8 million settlement with VNUS Medical Technologies in June 2008 and the legal fees associated with the two cases.
The Court’s order was filed under seal. As of this date, the order has not yet been entered as a judgment and therefore does not contain specified amounts with respect to damages, and there can be no assurance that we will recover the full amount, or any amount, of the damages we have sought against biolitec and, accordingly, we have not recognized any contingent gains or related receivables with respect to this matter.
The Court also dismissed biolitec’s counterclaims against us. The court denied one portion of our summary judgment motion, which sought to recover additional costs from biolitec, leaving this for adjudication at trial.
CEO Transition
On June 13, 2011, we entered into a Separation Agreement with Johannes C. Keltjens, our then President and Chief Executive Officer that provided, among other things, for a lump sum payment in the amount of $930,811 (subject to applicable withholdings and deductions) and continuation of health benefits for a period of up to 24 months. Total expenses of $1.0 million associated with this Separation Agreement were included in “Restructuring and other costs, net” in our fiscal 2012 first quarter income statement. Joseph M. Devivo commenced employment on September 7, 2011 as President and Chief Executive Officer. During the transition period, Scott J. Solano, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, assumed the duties of Interim Chief Executive Officer. Subsequent to the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2012, Mr. Solano has resigned from AngioDynamics, effective October, 14, 2011.
Centros
On August 13, 2007, we entered into a Distribution, Manufacturing and Purchase Option Agreement (“the Agreement”) with a company to acquire the exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture and distribute a split tip catheter for the dialysis market we have named Centros™ which included the option to purchase certain intellectual property associated with these products in the future. Under this Agreement, we pay royalties on net sales of the products covered in the Agreement. In accordance with the Agreement, we prepaid $3.0 million of royalties based upon the achievement of certain milestones. At May 31, 2011, based on lower than anticipated sales results, we reduced the prepaid royalties to net realizable value which resulted in an impairment loss of $2.3 million recorded in “Other non-recurring items” in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2011 income statement. The remaining balance of $383,000 was included in the caption “Prepaid Royalties” on the balance sheet as of May 31, 2011, to be credited against future quarterly royalties due. In August 2011, we sold both the tangible and intangible assets associated with the Centros product resulting in a gain of $201 thousand included in “Restructuring and other costs, net” in the fiscal first quarter of 2012 income statement and elimination of any amounts remaining in “Prepaid Royalties” on the balance sheet as of August 31, 2011.
22
Closure of UK facility
During the first fiscal quarter of 2012, we made the decision to close our facility located in Cambridge, UK and transfer the production of lasers to our Queensbury, NY facility. We anticipate the closure of this facility to be completed in February 2012 at an estimated total cost of $1.6 million. The first quarter 2012 income statement includes a charge of $295 thousand for costs incurred to date associated with this closure. The charge is included in “Restructuring and other costs, net” in the income statement.
Establishment of AngioDynamics Netherlands BV
|
In February 2011, we entered into an agreement with our distributor in the Netherlands to terminate our international distribution agreement, to purchase relevant business assets and to secure their assistance in transferring customer relationships to AngioDynamics. As a result, we have established a direct sales operation and a business office in the Netherlands in accordance with our international growth strategy. The income statement for the first fiscal quarter of 2012 includes income of $200 thousand, shown in “Restructuring and other costs, net”, related to a fair market value adjustment of a contingent liability related to this acquisition. |
Expiration of our Distribution Agreement Amendment for LC Bead
We sell the embolization product, LC Bead, pursuant to a Supply and Distribution Agreement with Biocompatibles UK Limited, now BTG PLC, which grants us exclusive distribution rights to the product in the United States. The agreement was entered into in 2006 and will expire on December 31, 2011. LC Bead sales were $8.0 million and $6.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Results of Operations
Three Months ended August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010
For the first quarter of fiscal 2012, we reported net income of $1.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted common share, on net sales of $54.4 million, compared with net income of $1.9 million, or $0.08 per diluted common share, on net sales of $51.5 million in the first quarter of the prior year.
The following table sets forth certain operating data as a percentage of net sales:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended | |
| | Aug 31, 2011 | | | Aug 31, 2010 | |
Net sales | | | 100.0 | % | | | 100.0 | % |
Gross profit | | | 59.1 | % | | | 58.3 | % |
Research and development | | | 10.3 | % | | | 10.2 | % |
Sales and marketing | | | 30.0 | % | | | 28.0 | % |
General and administrative | | | 7.9 | % | | | 8.9 | % |
Amortization of intangibles | | | 4.2 | % | | | 4.4 | % |
Restructuring and other costs | | | 1.7 | % | | | 0.0 | % |

Other income (expenses) | | | (1.1 | %) | | | (1.0 | %) |
Income taxes | | | 1.3 | % | | | 2.1 | % |
Net income | | | 2.5 | % | | | 3.7 | % |
Net sales. Net sales are derived from the sale of our products and related freight charges, less discounts and returns. Net sales of $54.4 million increased $2.9 million from the $51.5 million reported in the first quarter of 2011. This change in net sales was primarily attributable to increased unit sales of LC Beads, Venacure/EVLT procedure kits, vascular access ports and Nanoknife products, partially offset by a 2% decrease in average selling prices and decreased unit sales of Sotradecol.
From a reportable segment perspective, Vascular sales increased 2% from the prior year period to $36.6 million. This increase was driven primarily by increased unit sales of Venacure/EVLT procedure kits, vascular access ports and micro access kits, partially
23
offset by 5% lower average selling prices and decreased unit sales Sotradecol. Oncology/Surgery sales were $17.9 million, an increase of 15% on prior year sales of $15.6 million. The increase was primarily due to increased unit sales of LC Beads and Nanoknife products and a 4% increase in average selling prices. Nanoknife sales totaled $2.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and $1.1 million in the prior year quarter.
From a geographic perspective, U.S. sales increased $1.8 million or 4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 to $47.3 million from $45.5 million a year ago. This increase is primarily attributable to increased unit sales of LC Beads, Venacure/EVLT procedure kits, vascular access ports and Nanoknife products, partially offset by decreased unit sales of Sotradecol and RF ablation products. International sales were $7.1 million in the fiscal first quarter of 2012, an increase of 18% from $6.0 million in the comparable prior year period. Increased unit sales of Nanoknife products and a 6% increase in average selling prices in International markets were the source of this increase.
Gross profit. Gross profit consists of net sales less the cost of goods sold, which includes the costs of materials, products purchased from third parties and sold by us, manufacturing personnel, royalties, freight, business insurance, depreciation of property and equipment and other manufacturing overhead. Our gross profit as a percentage of sales improved to 59.1% in the first quarter of 2012 from 58.3% in the same quarter a year ago. The improvement in gross profit margin was primarily attributable to material cost reduction programs, improved factory utilization and the 4% average selling price increase on Oncology/Surgery products, partially offset by the 5% average selling price decrease on Vascular products.
Research and development expenses. Research and development (“R&D”) expenses include costs to develop new products, enhance existing products, validate new and enhanced products, manage clinical, regulatory and medical affairs and our intellectual property. R&D expenses increased by $349 thousand, or 7%, to $5.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same prior year period. The increase is primarily due to increased clinical and regulatory expenses for our Oncology/Surgery products and increased process engineering costs for our Vascular products. As a percentage of net sales, R&D expenses were 10.3% for the fiscal first quarter of 2012, compared with 10.2% for the same period a year ago.
Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing (“S&M”) expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, travel and related business expenses, attendance at medical society meetings, product promotions and samples. S&M expenses increased $1.9 million or 13% to $16.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same prior year period. This increase is primarily due to increased sales commissions in the U.S. and increased International sales expenses as we expand our International sales activities, including our recent establishment of a direct sales office in the Netherlands, partially offset by lower U.S. marketing costs. As a percentage of net sales, S&M expenses were 30.0% for the fiscal first quarter of 2012, compared with 28.0% for the prior year period.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses include executive management, finance, accounting, legal, human resources and information technology and the administrative and professional costs associated with those activities. G&A expenses decreased $274 thousand, or 6%, to $4.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to prior year period, primarily due to lower salary and stock based compensation expense. G&A expenses decreased to 7.9% of net sales compared with 8.9% in the prior year period.
Amortization of intangibles. Amortization of intangibles was $2.3 million in both the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and 2011.
Restructuring and other costs, net. The first quarter of fiscal 2012 included restructuring and other costs of $0.9 million which primarily consisted of $1.0 million of expenses associated with the separation agreement with our former chief executive officer, $295 thousand associated with activities related to the closure of our facility in the UK, partially offset by a gain of $201 thousand on the sale of assets related to the Centros product line and income of $200 thousand related to a fair market value adjustment of a contingent liability related to the acquisition of the assets and business of our former distributor in the Netherlands. These restructuring and other costs, net comprised 1.7% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. There were no restructuring and other costs in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
Operating income. Operating income was $2.7 million and $3.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively. As a percentage of sales, operating income decreased to 5.0% for the first quarter of 2012 from 6.8% in the same prior year period.
Other income (expenses). Other income and expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $614 thousand of net expense compared with $528 thousand of net expense in the same period a year ago, representing (1.1)% and (1.0)% of net sales in their respective periods.
24
Income taxes. Our effective tax rate was 35% for the fiscal first quarter of 2012 compared with 36% for the prior year period. The current quarter reflects a benefit from the R&D tax credit which expired December 31, 2009 and was not renewed until our fiscal third quarter of 2011 when it was retroactively extended from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2011.
Net income. For the first quarter of 2012, we reported net income of $1.4 million, a decrease of $515 thousand from net income of $1.9 million for the prior year quarter.
Investment in Nanoknife Technology. The financial results of our Nanoknife program are recorded in our Oncology/Surgery division. Taking into account the sales and the related cost of sales and operating expenses, the net impact of our investment in Nanoknife technology in the first fiscal quarter of 2012 was $1.8 million on pretax income and $1.2 million or ($0.05) per share after tax compared with $1.6 million on pretax income and $1.0 million or ($0.04) per share after tax in the first fiscal quarter of 2011.
25
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $136.7 million at August 31, 2011, compared with $131.5 million at May 31, 2011. Marketable securities consists of U.S. government issued or guaranteed securities, corporate bonds and auction rate securities. At August 31, 2011, total debt was $6.5 million comprised of short and long-term bank debt that financed our facility expansions in Queensbury, New York. This compared with $6.6 million at May 31, 2011.
Summary of cash flows (in thousands):

Cash provided by (used in): | | | | | | | | |
Operating activities | | $ | 3,044 | | | $ | 1,738 | |

| | | | | | | | |
Net change in cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 4,509 | | | $ | 8,439 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended August 31, 2011 was $3.0 million compared with $1.7 million in the prior year period. Cash generated from operating activities during the first three months of fiscal year 2012 was primarily the result of net income and the effect on net income of non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and deferred income taxes and changes in working capital balances. The prior year period consisted of similar components.
Net cash used in investing activities was $284 thousand for the three months ended August 31, 2011 compared with net cash provided by investing activities of $5.9 million for the same prior year period. The net cash used in investing activities in the first three months of 2012 consisted primarily of net purchases of marketable securities and available-for-sale short term investments while the same net components provided cash in the prior year period.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.7 million for the three months ended August 31, 2011 compared to $785 thousand for the comparable prior year period. Cash provided by financing activities for the both periods primarily consisted of proceeds from purchases under the employee stock purchase plan and proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Our contractual obligations and their effect on liquidity and cash flows have not changed substantially from that disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended May 31, 2011.
We believe that our current cash and investment balances, together with cash generated from operations, will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our anticipated needs for capital for at least the next 12 months. If we seek to make significant additional acquisitions of other businesses or technologies for cash, we may require external financing. We cannot assure you that such financing will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
We are exposed to market risk due to changes in interest rates. To reduce that risk, we periodically enter into certain derivative financial instruments to hedge our underlying economic exposure. We use derivative instruments as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. The derivative instruments used are floating-to-fixed rate interest rate swaps, which are subject to cash flow hedge accounting treatment.
At August 31, 2011, we maintained variable interest rate financing of $6.5 million in connection with our facility expansions. We have limited our exposure to interest rate risk by entering into interest rate swap agreements with a bank under which we agreed to pay the bank fixed annual interest rates of 4.45% and 5.06% and the bank assumed our variable interest payment obligations under the financing.
26
Nearly all of our sales have historically been denominated in United States dollars. In fiscal 2007 we began to make sales in other currencies, particularly the Euro, GB pound and Canadian dollar. Approximately 5% of our sales in the first fiscal quarter of 2012 were denominated in currencies other than the US dollar, primarily the Euro and GB pound. We currently have no significant direct foreign currency exchange risk.
Our excess cash is invested in highly liquid, short-term, investment grade securities with maturities primarily of less than two years. These investments are not held for speculative or trading purposes. Changes in interest rates may affect the investment income we earn on cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and therefore affect our cash flows and results of operations. We hold investments in auction rate securities (“ARS”) in order to generate higher than typical money market investment returns. ARS typically are high credit quality instruments, generally achieved with municipal bond insurance. Credit risks are eased by the historical track record of bond insurers, which back a majority of this market. Sell orders for any security traded through an auction process could exceed bids. Such instances are usually the result of a drastic deterioration of issuer credit quality. Should there be a failed auction, we may be unable to liquidate our position in the securities in the near term. We have $1.85 million in investments in two auction rate securities issued by New York state and local government authorities that have failed auctions. The authorities are current in their interest payments on the securities.
We are party to legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business as described in Note K.

Item | 4. Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting in the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
AngioDynamics, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Part II: Other Information
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. |
AngioDynamics v. biolitec
On September 27, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York granted key portions of our motion for summary judgment in our legal case against biolitec.
We initiated legal action against biolitec in January 2008 seeking to enforce the indemnification provisions of our April 1, 2002, Supply and Distribution Agreement with biolitec and to recover costs incurred by us in defending and settling two patent infringement cases. Specifically, we are seeking to recover the costs of our $7 million settlement with Diomed in April 2008, our $6.8 million settlement with VNUS Medical Technologies in June 2008 and the legal fees associated with the two cases.
The Court’s order was filed under seal. As of this date, the order has not yet been entered as a judgment and therefore does not contain specified amounts with respect to damages, and there can be no assurance that we will recover the full amount, or any amount, of the damages we have sought against biolitec and, accordingly, we have not recognized any contingent gains or related receivables with respect to this matter.
The Court also dismissed biolitec’s counterclaims against us. The court denied one portion of our summary judgment motion, which sought to recover additional costs from biolitec, leaving this for adjudication at trial.
