Item 1.BUSINESS
GENERAL
HPSC, Inc. ("HPSC" or the "Company") is a specialty finance company engaged primarily in financing licensed healthcare providers throughout the United States. HPSC was incorporated in Delaware 1975 under the name Healthco Professional Services Corporation. On April 25, 1983, the Company changed its name to HPSC, Inc. A majority of the Company's revenues comes from its financing of equipment and other healthcare practice related expenses. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, American Commercial Finance Corporation ("ACFC"), the Company also provides asset-based lending to commercial and industrial businesses, principally in the eastern United States. New originations at ACFC were discontinued in 2002 and the Company is currently winding down the portfolio. The Company periodically sells leases and notes in its securitization facilities and to various banks.
HPSC provides financing, in the form of leases and notes due in installments, to the dental, ophthalmic, chiropractic, optometry, veterinary, podiatry and other medical and healthcare professions. At December 31, 2002, approximately 97% of the Company's consolidated net investment in leases and notes consisted of financing contracts with licensed healthcare professionals. Approximately 70% of these leases and notes are for equipment financing while approximately 30% relate to practice financing, leasehold improvements, office furniture, working capital and supplies. HPSC competes in the portion of the healthcare finance market where the size of the transaction is $250,000 or less, sometimes referred to as the "small-ticket" market. The average size of an obligor's original obligation to the Company under a contract originated by the Company in 2002 was approximately $40,000. The Company's finance and lease agreements are non-cancelable and provide for a full payout at a fixed interest rate over a term of 12 to 84 months. The Company markets its financing services to healthcare providers in a number of ways, including direct marketing through trade shows, conventions, advertising, cooperative arrangements with equipment vendors, and through its sales staff located in 22 offices throughout the United States.
At December 31, 2002, the net investment of owned and managed financing contracts in the licensed professional financing segment was $743 million, consisting of more than 24,600 active contracts with approximately 16,100 customers. Licensed professional financing contract originations were $308 million, $250 million, and $242 million, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The remaining 3% of the Company's portfolio consists of notes receivable due to ACFC and progress payment notes receivable due to HPSC. The notes to ACFC ($12,826,000 at December 31, 2002) consist of secured, asset-based, revolving lines of credit of $4 million or less to small and medium-sized manufacturers and distributors, at variable interest rates. Advances on a revolving loan generally do not exceed 80% of a borrower's eligible accounts receivable or 50% of the value of active inventory. ACFC loans, which typically have terms of two to three years, are "fully followed", which means ACFC receives daily settlement statements of its borrower's accounts receivable and receives daily collections into ACFC controlled collection accounts. On December 31, 2002, ACFC sold five revolving loans to a third party. At the time of the sale, the loans had a net book value of $7,426,000. The progress payment notes receivable due to HPSC ($6,525,000 at December 31, 2002) relate to progress payments made for construction or leasehold improvements in advance of the borrower's executing a lease or finance agreement with the Company. These demand notes are secured by a blanket lien on all the assets of the licensed healthcare professional's practice.

BUSINESS STRATEGY
The Company's strategy is to expand its business and enhance its profitability by (i) maintaining its strong position in the small-ticket dental equipment market while increasing its share of other medical related small-ticket equipment financing markets; (ii) diversifying the Company's revenue stream by increasing its financing of acquisitions of healthcare practices; (iii) emphasizing superior service to vendors and customers; (iv) increasing its direct sales and other marketing efforts; (v) maintaining and increasing its access to low-cost capital while managing interest rate risks; (vi) continuing to manage effectively its credit risks; and (vii) capitalizing on information technology to increase productivity and enable the Company to manage a higher volume of financing transactions.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
The equipment financing industry in the United States includes a wide variety of sources for financing the purchase or lease of equipment, ranging from specialty financing companies, which concentrate on a particular industry or financing technique, to large banking institutions, which offer a full array of financial services.
The medical equipment finance industry includes two distinct markets, generally differentiated based on equipment price and type of healthcare provider. The first market, in which the Company currently does not compete, is financing of equipment generally priced over $250,000, which is typically sold to hospitals and other institutional purchasers. Because of the size of the purchase, long sales cycle, and number of financing alternatives available to these types of customers, their choice among financing alternatives tends to be based primarily on cost of financing. The second market, in which the Company does compete, is the financing of lower-priced or "small-ticket" equipment, where the price of the financed equipment is generally $250,000 or less. Much of this equipment is sold to individual healthcare practitioners or small group practices, including dentists, ophthalmologists, physicians, chiropractors, veterinarians and other healthcare providers. The Company focuses on the small-ticket market because it is able to respond in a prompt and flexible manner to the needs of individual customers. Management believes that purchasers in the small-ticket healthcare equipment market often seek the value-added sales support and ease of conducting business that the Company offers.
Although the Company primarily focuses its business on equipment financing to licensed professionals, it continues to expand its financing of healthcare practice acquisitions. Practice finance is a specialized segment of the finance industry, in which the Company's primary competitors are banks. Practice finance is a relatively new business opportunity for financing companies such as HPSC. It has developed as the sale of healthcare professional practices has increased. HPSC typically finances between 70% and 100% of the cost of the practice being purchased.
HEALTHCARE PROVIDER FINANCING
Terms and Conditions
The Company's business consists primarily of the origination of equipment financing contracts through which the Company finances healthcare providers' acquisition of equipment as well as leasehold improvements, working capital and supplies. The contracts are either finance agreements (notes) or leases, and are non-cancelable. The contracts are full payout contracts and provide for scheduled payments sufficient, in the aggregate, to cover the Company's costs, and to provide the Company with an appropriate return on its investment. During 2002, approximately 80% of the contracts originated by the Company were finance agreements (77% for 2001) while the remaining 20% were leases (23% for 2001). The Company provides its leasing customers with an option to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease, generally for 10% of its original cost. In the past, the majority of lessees have exercised this option. The terms of the Company's leases and notes range from 12 to 84 months, with a weighted-average original term of 66 months for originations for the year ended December 31, 2002.
5
All of the Company's equipment financing contracts require the customer to: (i) maintain, service and operate the equipment in accordance with the manufacturer's and government-mandated procedures, and (ii) make all scheduled contract payments regardless of the performance of the equipment, without setoff. Substantially all of the Company's financing contracts provide for payments due monthly for the term of the contract. In the event of default by a customer, the financing contract provides the Company with the rights afforded to creditors under law, including the right to repossess the underlying equipment and in the case of a legal proceeding arising from a default, to recover damages and attorneys' fees. The Company's equipment financing contracts provide for late fees and service charges to be applied on overdue payments.
Although the customer has the full benefit of the equipment manufacturers' warranties with respect to the equipment it finances, the Company makes no warranties to its customers regarding the equipment. In addition, the financing contract obligates the customer to continue to make contract payments regardless of any defects in the equipment. Under a financing agreement (note), the customer holds title to the equipment and the Company has a lien on the equipment to secure the loan; under a lease, the Company retains title to the equipment. The Company has the right to pledge or sell any financing contract without the consent of the customer.
Since 1994, the Company has originated a total of approximately 1,410 practice finance loans aggregating approximately $241 million in financings. The term of a practice finance loan generally ranges from 72 to 84 months, with an average original balance of approximately $235,000 for 2002. During 2002, approximately 19% of HPSC's total healthcare originations consisted of practice finance loans. Management believes that its practice finance business contributes to the diversification of the Company's revenue sources and earns HPSC substantial goodwill among healthcare providers. All practice finance inquiries received by the Company are referred to the Boston office for processing.
The Company solicits business for its practice finance services primarily by advertising in trade magazines, attending healthcare conventions, working with practice brokers, and by directly approaching potential purchasers of healthcare practices. The majority of the healthcare practices financed by the Company to date have been dental practices. The Company has also financed the purchase of professional practices of chiropractors, ophthalmologists, general medical practitioners, optometrists, opticians, podiatrists, and veterinarians.
Customers
The primary customers for the Company's financing contracts are healthcare providers, including dentists, ophthalmologists, other physicians, chiropractors and veterinarians. As of December 31, 2002, no single customer (or group of affiliated customers) accounted for more than 1% of the Company's healthcare finance portfolio. The Company's customers are located throughout the United States, with a higher concentration in heavily populated states such as California, Florida, Texas, Illinois and New York.
Realization of Residual Values on Equipment Leases
Since 1997, the Company has realized in excess of 97% of the residual value of equipment covered by leases that run to maturity. The continued growth in the Company's equipment lease portfolio has resulted in increases in the aggregate amount of recorded residual values on the Company's balance sheet. As of December 31, 2002, substantially all of the Company's leasing portfolio and associated residual values are scheduled to expire by the year 2009. Realization of such residual values depends on factors not within the Company's control, such as the condition of the equipment, the cost of comparable new equipment and the technological or economic obsolescence of the equipment. Although the Company has historically received a majority of its recorded residual values, there can be no assurance that this realization rate will continue.
6
Government Regulation and Healthcare Trends
The majority of the Company's present customers are healthcare providers. The healthcare industry is subject to substantial federal, state and local regulation. In particular, federal and state governments have enacted laws and regulations designed to control healthcare costs, including mandated reductions in fees for the use of certain medical equipment and fixed-price reimbursement systems, where the rates of payment to healthcare providers for particular types of care are fixed in advance of actual treatment.
Major changes have occurred in the United States healthcare delivery system, including the formation of integrated patient care networks (often involving joint ventures between hospitals and physician groups), as well as the grouping of healthcare consumers into managed-care organizations sponsored by insurance companies and other third parties. Moreover, state healthcare initiatives have significantly affected the financing and structure of the healthcare delivery system. These changes have not had a material adverse effect on the Company's business, but the effect of any changes on the Company's future business cannot be predicted.
ASSET-BASED LENDING
ACFC makes asset-based loans, generally $4 million or less, to commercial and industrial companies, primarily secured by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. ACFC typically makes accounts receivable loans to borrowers that can obtain traditional bank financing. ACFC takes a security interest in all of the borrower's assets and monitors collection of its receivables. Advances on a revolving loan generally do not exceed 80% of the borrower's eligible accounts receivable. ACFC also makes inventory loans, generally not exceeding 50% of the value of the customer's active inventory, valued at the lower of cost or market value.
During 2002, ACFC ceased originating new loans. On December 31, 2002, ACFC sold five revolving loans to a third party. At the time of the sale, the loans had a net book value of $7,426,000. The Company received proceeds of $6,683,000, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date thereon, and incurred a pre-tax loss of $743,000.
CREDIT AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
The Company processes all credit applications, and monitors all existing contracts at its corporate headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts. HPSC "hand" underwrites all transactions (i.e. no credit scoring programs) and designates review and credit authority levels to individual underwriters, based upon their level of experience and history with the Company. The Company's credit procedures require the review, verification and approval of a potential customer's credit file, accurate and complete documentation, delivery of equipment and verification of installation by the customer, and correct invoicing by the vendor. When a sales representative receives a credit application from a potential obligor, he or she enters the data into the Company's computer system. The Company's credit requirements include an acceptable personal payment history and minimum credit rating scores based on several credit reporting agency models. The credit of the potential obligor is checked with one or more commercial credit reporting agencies, including Experian Inc., Equifax Inc., and Trans Union Corporation. Appropriate professional organizations may be consulted regarding the obligor's professional status. In addition to an obligor's credit profile, information such as the equipment type and vendor may be considered. The type and level of information and time required for a credit decision varies according to the nature, size and complexity of each transaction. In smaller, less complicated transactions, a decision can often be reached within one hour; more complicated transactions may require up to three or four days. Once the equipment is shipped and installed, the vendor invoices the Company. The Company verifies that the customer has received and accepted the equipment and obtains the customer's authorization to pay the vendor. Following this telephone
7
verification, the file is forwarded to the Company's accounting department for audit, booking and funding and to commence automated billing and transaction accounting procedures.
The underwriting of commercial loan contracts for the financing of leasehold improvements, working capital or the acquisition or operation of professional practices requires more extensive information than equipment financing, such as: the tax returns of both the buyer and the seller of a practice, a five page application, an application fee and a complete inventory of all office and practice equipment. A financial analysis of the seller's practice is done to determine the adjusted cash flow available to support existing debt of the buyers as well as new practice acquisition debt. Cash flow is generally discounted to account for reduced practice efficiency of the new buyer and potential patient loss that often occurs following a sale. The Company customizes its advance rates and other terms based upon a variety of factors including type of practice, buyer specialty, geographic location, etc.
With respect to lease transactions, the Company will generally require guarantees from the owners of corporate lessees. With respect to loan transactions, the Company will generally require personal guarantees from owners of the obligor.
Timely and accurate vendor payments are essential to the Company's business. In order to maintain its relationships with existing vendors and attract new vendors, the Company generally makes payments to vendors for financing transactions within one day of authorization to pay from the customer.
Although ACFC ceased originating new loans in 2002, ACFC's underwriting procedures for existing loans include an evaluation of the collectibility of the borrower's receivables pledged to ACFC, including an evaluation of the validity of such receivables and the creditworthiness of the payors of such receivables. In some instances, ACFC also requires its customers to pay for credit insurance with respect to its loans. The loan administration officer of ACFC is responsible for maintaining lending standards and for monitoring loans and underlying collateral. Before approving a loan, ACFC examines the prospective customer's books and records and during the term of the loans, ACFC monitors its customer's operations as deemed necessary. Loan officers are required to rate the risk of each loan made by ACFC and to update the rating upon receipt of financial statements from the customer or when 90 days have elapsed since the date of the last rating.
SERVICING
The Company fully services its equipment lease and loan portfolio. It provides both the personnel and system resources for set-up, billing, collections, cash posting, customer service, accounting, tax compliance and all asset management and reporting functions. The Company also handles lien searches, Uniform Commercial Code filings and preparation of sales, use and property tax returns.
As of December 31, 2002, the Company employed eight people dedicated to servicing and collections, seven people dedicated to documentation, six customer service representatives and four people in quality assurance.
COLLECTION POLICIES
The company has a centralized servicing operation at its Boston, Massachusetts headquarters office. Lockboxes are located at Fleet National Bank and are administered pursuant to a multiparty escrow agreement. Customers are generally billed by invoice on the 17th day of the month prior to the next payment due date (all due dates are on the first day of each month).
A collection management report is generated each month that alphabetically sorts all 30, 60, and 90 day delinquencies. The Company begins collection on the 15th day after the due date for all large balance delinquencies. Large balance delinquencies are handled by senior collectors. Ordinary accounts that are delinquent by 30 days are assigned to junior collection representatives. Accounts that are delinquent by 60 days are assigned to senior collection representatives. If the account is 30 days past
8
due, a telephone call is made to the customer on the 31st day. If an account is 60 days past due, a default notice is sent to the customer. If the customer fails to respond to the default notice, a repossession notice is sent. This notice advises the customer that unless payment arrangements are made, the equipment will be repossessed and sold at a private sale. A senior collector handles all accounts that are ninety day delinquent in a final attempt to make payment arrangements. All unresolved delinquencies are referred to the Company's collection agency or attorneys. These delinquent accounts are monitored by the Company's assistant manager and legal cases are handled by the assistant manager and the collection manager. The Company will attempt to remove the asset from the obligor's premises voluntarily or through replevin prior to litigation. The Company generally is able to obtain voluntary surrender of equipment.
The Company utilizes Western Union Phone Pay to enhance it collection activities. This product allows the Company to generate a check from an obligor at the Company's premises after receiving the obligor's bank account number and ABA routing number. These custom encoded checks are applied to an obligor's account the day they are generated, eliminating both the time and expense associated with a personal check.
In addition, collectors utilize online contract information furnished by LeadTrac (the Company's proprietary origination tracking system) and real-time payment status furnished by the LeasePlus Collection System. The LeasePlus System incorporates electronic comment and follow-up screens and reporting.
The Company has also begun a campaign promoting direct debit of customer accounts. Such direct debits accelerate the collection process and have a presentation priority over paper items (checks) when processed by the obligor's bank.
The Company accepts major credit cards for obligor payments.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES AND CHARGE-OFFS
The Company maintains an allowance for losses in connection with its financing contracts, which it deems sufficient to cover estimated uncollectible receivables held in the Company's portfolio. Each quarter, the Company performs a detailed analysis of delinquent accounts to evaluate specific factors affecting the obligor's ability to pay. As part of the analysis, the Company looks at the delinquency status of the customer, the fair value of the collateral, the current credit rating of the obligor, and the financial strength of guarantors, among other factors. In addition, the Company takes into consideration the Company's historical loss experience and general economic conditions. There can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate. Failure of the Company's customers to make scheduled payments under their financing contracts could require the Company to (i) make payments in connection with any recourse portion of its borrowings relating to such contract, (ii) lose its residual interest in any underlying equipment or (iii) forfeit cash collateral pledged as security for the Company's asset securitizations. In addition, any significant increase in losses or in the rate of payment defaults under the Company's financing contracts could adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain additional funding, including its ability to complete additional asset securitizations.
To manage credit risk, the Company has adopted underwriting and collection policies that are closely monitored by management. Additionally, the Company may be subject to limited recourse from leases and notes receivable sold under certain securitization agreements. Such risk of loss is generally limited to the extent of the Company's retained interest in the leases and notes sold and residual values related to equipment financed under equipment leases sold. Accounts are normally charged-off when future payments are deemed unlikely.

A summary of activity in the Company's consolidated allowance for losses for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2002 is as follows:

The total gross contractual balances of delinquent leases and notes, both owned and managed by the Company, which were over 90 days past due was $27,973,000 at December 31, 2002 compared to $24,945,000 at December 31, 2001. An account is considered delinquent when not paid within 30 days of the billing due date.
FUNDING SOURCES
General
The Company's principal sources of funding for its financing transactions at December 31, 2002 were: (i) a revolving loan agreement with Foothill Capital Corporation as Agent, providing borrowing availability of up to $60 million to HPSC (the "HPSC Foothill Revolver") and $20 million to ACFC (the "ACFC Foothill Revolver"); (ii) a securitized limited recourse revolving sale and loan credit facility with a wholly-owned, special-purpose subsidiary of the Company, HPSC Bravo Funding LLC ("Bravo"), with an aggregate availability of $450 million (the "MBIA portion of the Bravo Facility"); (iii) a $20 million facility with ING Capital LLC, to provide additional liquidity of up to 3.75% of financing contracts held in the MBIA portion of the Bravo Facility; (iv) a $527 million sale and loan term securitization with a remaining outstanding principal balance of $230 million ("Equipment Receivables 2000-1"). Financing for the term securitization is provided through two wholly-owned, special-purpose subsidiaries of the Company, HPSC Equipment Receivables 2000-1 LLC I ("ER 2000-1 LLC I") and HPSC Equipment Receivables 2000-1 LLC II ("ER 2000-1 LLC II"); (v) full recourse, fixed-term loans and sales of financing contracts with savings banks and other purchasers; (vi) the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes issued in 1997; and (vii) the Company's internally generated revenues.
$50 Million in availability under the HPSC Foothill Revolver expires in August 2005, with the remaining $10 million expiring in April 2003. The ACFC Foothill Revolver expired in February 2003, was repaid and terminated. In November 2002, the HPSC Foothill Revolver was temporarily increased to $60,000,000 through January 24, 2003. On January 31, 2003, the HPSC Foothill Revolver was further amended to temporarily increase availability from $50,000,000 to $60,000,000 through April 24,2003. The January 31, 2003 amendment also permits the Company to borrow up to $750,000 in the HPSC Foothill Revolver to finance the operations of its ACFC subsidiary. On February 5, 2003, the Company borrowed $276,000 under the HPSC Foothill Revolver for the purpose of paying off the remaining outstanding balance of the ACFC Foothill Revolver. The Company intends to seek permanent availability above $50,000,000 under the Foothill Revolver, but there can be no assurance it will be able to do so. If the Company can not obtain commitments above $50,000,000, the Company's ability to continue its historical growth rates may be constrained.
On January 29, 2003, the MBIA portion of the Bravo Facility was amended to temporarily increase availability to the Company from $450,000,000 to $525,000,000. The increased liquidity expires upon the earlier to occur of either the completion by the Company of a new term securitization transaction or April 30, 2003. In addition, continued availability to the Company under the Bravo Facility is contingent upon the Company's obtaining an additional securitization conduit facility with a third party
10
(similar in nature to the Bravo Facility). The amendment requires that the new conduit facility must be arranged by June 23, 2003 and must provide the Company with a line of availability of at least $150,000,000.
The MBIA and ING portion of Bravo Facility expires in June 2003. The Company intends to continue to utilize the Bravo Facility for a portion of its permanent financing requirements. The Company expects that it will be able to renew the Bravo Facility. It is possible, however, that the Bravo Facility or the banks providing liquidity under the facility will not extend their commitment. In addition, although the Company believes that it can arrange a new facility with a third party by June 2003, there can be no assurance it will be able to do so. If the Bravo Facility is not renewed, the Facility may then be limited to the then existing outstandings and may not be available to the Company to provide future liquidity. If the liquidity banks terminate or reduce their commitment, the Company will seek to replace the terminated or reduced amount, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so. If the Bravo Facility is unavailable, the Company may be unable to conduct its business or may be unable to conduct its business at current levels.
Further information regarding the Company's funding sources, including the effects of the restatement on such funding sources, is incorporated by reference from Notes C, D, and O of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" at page 11 through 15 and 27, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition" at Pages 32 through 41 of the 2002 Annual Report, as restated.
In order to finance future operations, the Company will seek to renew and/or obtain new liquidity facilities and may seek to raise additional equity or subordinated debt, but there can be no assurance it will be able to do so.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
The Company uses automated information systems and telecommunications capabilities to support its business functions, including accounting, taxes, credit, collections, operations, sales, and marketing. The Company has developed and owns proprietary software designed to support several of these business functions. The Company has invested a significant amount of time and capital in computer hardware and proprietary software. The Company's computerized systems provide management with accurate and up-to-date customer data which strengthens the Company's internal controls and assists in its forecasting. These systems are used to generate monthly billing, portfolio earnings recognition, collection histories, vendor analysis, customer reports and credit histories and other data useful in servicing customers and equipment suppliers. They are also used to provide financial and tax reporting, internal controls and personnel training and management. The Company recently introduced an interactive website offering its customers advanced functionality and services, and industry-specific information. The Company believes that its computer systems give it a competitive advantage by providing rapid contract processing and control over credit risk. These systems permit the Company to offer a high level of customer service.
The Company contracts with an outside consulting firm to provide information technology services. The Company's Boston office is linked electronically with all of the Company's other offices. Each salesperson's laptop computer may also be linked to the computer systems in the Boston office, permitting a salesperson to respond to a customer's financing request or a vendor's information request on a timely basis. Management believes that its investment in technology has positioned the Company to manage increased equipment financing volume.
COMPETITION
Healthcare provider financing is a highly competitive business. The Company competes for customers with a number of national, regional and local finance companies, including those, like the
11
Company, which specialize in financing for healthcare providers. In addition, the Company's competitors include equipment manufacturers which finance the sale or lease of their own products, other leasing companies and other types of financial services companies such as commercial banks and savings and loan associations. Although the Company believes that it currently has a competitive advantage based on its excellent customer service, many of the Company's competitors and potential competitors possess substantially greater financial, marketing and operational resources than HPSC. Moreover, the Company's future profitability may be directly related to the Company's ability to obtain capital funding at rates that are comparable to or better than the capital costs of its competitors. The Company's competitors and potential competitors include many larger companies that have a lower cost of funds and access to capital markets and to other funding sources which may not be available to the Company. The Company's ability to compete effectively for profitable equipment financing business will continue to depend upon its ability to procure funding on attractive terms, to develop and maintain good relations with new and existing equipment suppliers, and to attract new customers.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 2002, the Company had 132 full-time employees, 9 of whom work for ACFC. None of the Company's employees is represented by a labor union. Management believes that the Company's employee relations are good.

Such statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results in the future could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements as a result of the risk considerations set forth below under the heading "Certain Considerations" and the matters set forth in this annual report generally. HPSC cautions the reader, however, that such list of considerations may not be exhaustive. HPSC undertakes no obligation to release publicly the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances.
Dependence on Funding Sources; Restrictive Covenants. The Company's financing activities are capital intensive. The Company's revenues and profitability are related directly to the volume of financing contracts it originates. To generate new financing contracts, the Company relies on access to the capital markets. At December 31, 2002, the Company's two principal sources of funding for its financing transactions were (i) a $60 million revolving credit facility with Foothill Capital Corporation, as Agent, 10 million of which expires in April 2003 and $50 million of which expires in August 2005 (the "Foothill Revolver"); (ii) a $450 million securitization conduit facility through HPSC Bravo Funding, LLC and insured by MBIA (the "Bravo Facility"), which was renewed and further amended in June 2003 with $600,000,000 in availability. Other sources of funding include: a $20 million credit facility with ING Capital LLC; a term asset securitization of $527 million completed in December 2000; fixed-rate, full recourse term loans from several savings banks; specific recourse sales of financing contracts to savings banks and other purchasers; the issuance of Senior Subordinated Notes in 1997; the Company's internally generated revenues; and a $20 million revolving credit facility with Foothill Capital Corporation, as Agent, to ACFC (the "ACFC Foothill Revolver"). The ACFC Foothill Revolver expired on February 5, 2003, was repaid and terminated. The HPSC Foothill Revolver expires in August 2005. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to renew or extend the HPSC Foothill Revolver or to complete additional asset securitizations or to obtain other additional financing when needed and on acceptable terms. The Company would be adversely affected if it were unable to continue to secure sufficient and timely funding on acceptable terms. The agreement governing the HPSC Foothill Revolver ("the Revolver Agreement") contains numerous financial and operating covenants. The Company has received waivers relating to defaults under certain of these covenants through June 30, 2003. The Company anticipates that it may need waivers or amendments of the financial covenants in future periods. Failure to meet such covenants or the failure of the lending banks to agree to amend or waive compliance with covenants that the Company does not meet would result in a default under the Revolver Agreement. Moreover, the Company's financing arrangements with Bravo and the savings banks described above incorporate the covenants and default provisions of the Revolver Agreement. The term asset securitization facility also contains covenants and default provisions as does the Indenture governing the Company's Senior Subordinated Notes. Thus, any
14
material default that is not amended or waived under any of these agreements may result in a default under most or all of the Company's financing arrangements. In addition, the Indenture for the Senior Subordinated Notes contains certain limits on the Company's ability to incur certain types and amounts of senior debt.
Restatement Uncertainty. Management can not predict the impact of the restatement on its ability to continue to access capital at rates and in amounts as favorable as it has historically been able to obtain.
Securitization Recourse. Payment Restriction and Default Risk. As part of its overall funding strategy, the Company utilizes asset securitization transactions provided through wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries to obtain fixed-rate, matched-term financing. The Company transfers financing contracts to these subsidiaries which, in turn, either pledge or sell the contracts to third parties. The third parties' recourse with regard to the pledge or sale is limited to the contracts sold to the subsidiary. If the contract portfolio of these subsidiaries does not perform within certain guidelines, the subsidiaries must retain or "trap" any monthly cash distribution to which the Company might otherwise be entitled. This restriction on cash distributions could continue until the portfolio performance returns to acceptable levels (as defined in the relevant agreements), which restriction could have a negative impact on the cash flow available to the Company. In the event of a "payment trap", there can be no assurance that the portfolio performance would return to acceptable levels or that the payment restrictions would be removed. Recourse under securitization agreements is limited to the financing contracts contributed to the securitization and for any breach of the Company's representations and warranties regarding the validity and enforceability (but not the collectibility) of such contracts.
Customer Credit Risks. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts in connection with payments due under financing contracts originated by the Company (whether or not such contracts have been securitized, held as collateral for loans to the Company or sold) at a level which the Company deems sufficient to meet future estimated uncollectible receivables, based on an analysis of delinquencies and overall risks and probable losses associated with such contracts, and a review of the Company's historical credit loss experience. There can be no assurance that this allowance will prove to be adequate. Failure of the Company's customers to make scheduled payments under their financing contracts could require the Company to (i) make payments in connection with its recourse savings bank loan and asset sale transactions, and/or (ii) lose its retained interest and residual interest in equipment pledged as security for the Company's limited recourse asset securitizations. In addition, any increase in losses or in the rate of payment defaults under the financing contracts originated by the Company could adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain additional financing, including restricting its ability to borrow under its Foothill Revolver and its ability to complete additional asset securitizations and secured asset sales or loans. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain or reduce its current level of credit losses.
Competition. The Company operates in highly competitive markets. The Company competes for customers with a number of national, regional and local finance companies, including those, like the Company, which specialize in financing for healthcare providers. In addition, the Company's competitors include those equipment manufacturers which finance the sale or lease of their products themselves, other leasing companies and other types of financial services companies such as commercial banks and savings and loan associations. Many of the Company's competitors and potential competitors possess substantially greater financial, marketing and operational resources than the Company. Moreover, the Company's future profitability will be directly related to its ability to obtain capital funding at funding rates that are comparable to or better than the capital costs of its competitors. The Company's competitors and potential competitors include many larger companies that have a lower cost of funds than the Company and access to capital markets and to other funding sources that may be
15
unavailable to the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to compete successfully in its targeted markets.
Changes in Healthcare Payment Policies. The vast majority of the Company's customers are healthcare providers. The increasing cost of medical care has brought about federal and state regulatory changes designed to limit governmental reimbursement of certain healthcare providers. These changes include the enactment of fixed-price reimbursement systems in which the rates of payment to hospitals, outpatient clinics and private individual and group practices for specific categories of care are determined in advance of treatment. Rising healthcare costs may also cause non-governmental medical insurers, such as Blue Cross and Blue Shield associations and the growing number of self-insured employers, to revise their reimbursement systems and policies governing the purchasing and leasing of medical and dental equipment. Alternative healthcare delivery systems, such as health maintenance organizations, preferred provider organizations and managed care programs, have adopted similar cost containment measures. Other proposals to reform the United States healthcare system are considered from time to time. These proposals could lead to increased government involvement in healthcare and otherwise change the operating environment for the Company's customers. Healthcare providers may react to these proposals and the uncertainty surrounding such proposals by curtailing or deferring investment in medical and dental equipment. Future changes in the healthcare industry, including governmental regulation thereof, and the effect of such changes on the Company's business cannot be predicted. Changes in payment or reimbursement programs could adversely affect the ability of the Company's customers to satisfy their payment obligations to the Company and, accordingly, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
Interest Rate Risk. The Company's financing contracts generally require the Company's customers to make payments at fixed rates for a specified term. Approximately $60 million of the Company's borrowings are at variable interest rates and are not hedged. Thus, any increase in interest rates would reduce the Company's financing margins and could adversely affect the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. The Company's ability to secure additional long-term financing at favorable rates is limited by many factors, including competition, market and general economic conditions and the Company's financial condition.
Residual Value Risk. At the inception of its equipment leasing transactions, the Company estimates what it believes will be the fair market value of the financed equipment at the end of the lease term and records that value (typically 10% of the initial purchase price) on its balance sheet. The Company's results of operations depend, to some degree, upon its ability to realize these residual values (as of December 31, 2002, the estimated residual value of equipment at the end of the lease term was approximately $26 million, representing approximately 4% of the Company's total assets). The Company's ability to realize these residual values depends on many factors, several of which are not within the Company's control, including, but not limited to, general economic conditions at the time of the lease expiration; any unusual wear and tear on the equipment; the cost of comparable new equipment; the extent, if any, to which the equipment has become obsolete during the lease contract term; and the effects of any new government regulations. Although the Company has in the past generally realized in excess of 97% of the residual value of its leased equipment, there can be no assurance that it will continue to do so. If, upon the expiration of a lease, the Company sells or refinances the leased equipment and the amount realized is less than the original recorded residual value for such equipment, a loss reflecting the difference will be recorded on the Company's books. Failure to realize aggregate recorded residual values could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
Dependence on Sales Representatives. The Company is, and its growth and future revenues are, dependent in a large part upon (i) the ability of the Company's sales representatives to establish new
16
relationships, and maintain existing relationships, with equipment vendors, distributors and manufacturers and with healthcare providers and other customers and (ii) the extent to which such relationships lead equipment vendors, distributors and manufacturers to promote the Company's financing services to potential purchasers of their equipment. Although the Company is not materially dependent upon any one sales representative, the loss of a group of sales representatives could, until appropriate replacements were obtained, have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
Dependence on Current Management. The operations and future success of the Company are dependent upon the continued efforts of the Company's executive officers, two of whom are also directors of the Company. The loss of the services of any of these key executives could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results. The Company has historically experienced fluctuating quarterly revenues and earnings due to varying portfolio performance and operating and interest costs. Given the possibility of such fluctuations, the Company believes that quarterly comparisons of the results of its operations during any fiscal year are not necessarily meaningful and that results for any one fiscal quarter should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. The Company's quarterly operating results before and after the Company's restatement of its financial statements may be materially different.
General Market Risk. The demand for the Company's financing products is subject to overall market risks, such as inflation, recession and changes in technology needs of medical professionals.
