MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CERTAIN STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 10-Q INCLUDE "FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS" WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995. ALL FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS IN THIS REPORT ARE BASED ON INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO THE COMPANY AS OF THE DATE HEREOF AND THE COMPANY ASSUMES NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE ANY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT. SUCH STATEMENTS INVOLVE KNOWN AND UNKNOWN RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND OTHER FACTORS WHICH MAY CAUSE THE ACTUAL RESULT TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM ANY FUTURE RESULTS, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. OVERVIEW Applied Biometrics, Inc. ("Applied Biometrics" or the "Company") is a development stage medical device company in advanced cardio-vascular and hemodynamic diagnostic and monitoring systems. In July 2000, the Company announced due to significant technical issues facing the Company's Basis (TM) Cardiac Output Monitoring System (the "Basis System" or the "System") that commercialization of the System was unlikely in the near term. The Company determined that upon analysis of a number of recent procedures with its Basis System, two significant technical issues were identified. The first issue is the System's ability to work successfully in the event of considerable variability or turbulence in a patient's blood flow. As the System's central purpose is to sense and interpret blood flow, the Company has been working steadily throughout the development process to resolve a number of issues relating to blood flow dynamics. Previously, the Company believed that it had made sufficient progress with the System's signal processing to satisfy its quality and performance objectives. The second issue involves errors arising from the positioning of the RealFlow(TM) probe during and after the surgical procedure. Degradation of the probe's attachment or position on the patient's aorta will introduce data errors into the System and result in inaccurate cardiac output. The Company has determined that further investigation is warranted to resolve this issue and may require design changes to the probe. Both of these problems impact the System's performance, reliability and ultimately, market potential. The Company's initial investigation has concluded that both of these issues require significantly more research and design time. The Company believes that the ultimate commercialization of the Basis System is beyond the Company's current financial resources. Accordingly, the Company has taken steps to reduce its operating costs and focus the majority of its resources and efforts on pursuing strategic and financing alternatives. As of the date of this report, this process is still underway. 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $100,000 in the second quarter, from $313,000 during the 1999 period, to $213,000 during the 2000 period. The difference between periods is primarily due to expenses in the 1999 period relating to employee severance cost, hiring costs, increased legal activity and corporate logo and image costs. Research and development expenses increased $337,000, from $349,000 in 1999, to $685,000 in 2000. $210,000 of the increase is due to the write-off of monitor and probe component inventory, consistent with the determination that near-term commercialization of the Company's Basis System is unlikely. The Company also incurred $50,000 of consulting costs in the current quarter related to the analysis of its probe design related to a mechanical weakness. The balance of the quarter-to-quarter increase is due to increased costs for engineering, operations and quality assurance personnel over the prior year three-month period. As discussed above, the Company is taking steps to reduce its operating costs as it pursues strategic and financing alternatives. In the short-term, costs will increase as the Company incurs expenses related to the termination of its workforce and settles other operating contracts, commitments and obligations. This forward-looking statement will be influenced primarily by the Company's estimate of the costs to settle its outstanding operating commitments and obligations. Other income, primarily interest income, increased $7,000 from $22,000 in the 1999 quarter to $29,000 in the 2000 quarter. The increase is due to higher average investment balances in the 2000 quarter than in the 1999 quarter. The 2000 first quarter net loss was $869,000, or $0.15 per share, compared to a net loss of $640,000, or $0.14 per share in 1999. COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $180,000 in the first six-months, from $491,000 during the 1999 period, to $671,000 during the 2000 period. The Company incurred a non-cash compensation charge of $153,000 during the current period related to stock granted to the Company's three non-employee directors for prior and current board service. Non-employee directors of the Company serve without cash compensation. Research and development expenses increased $652,000, from $555,000 in 1999, to $1,207,000 in 2000, due to increased spending on engineering, operations and quality assurance personnel, animal testing, manufacturing pilot costs and product evaluations. The Company hired a significant number of additional personnel during the second half of 1999 in order to complete development, begin manufacturing and conduct market product evaluations on the Basis System. As discussed above, the Company wrote-off $210,000 of its monitor and probe component inventory in the current period. Other income, primarily interest income, increased $4,000 from $46,000 in the 1999 six-month period to $50,000 in the 2000 period. The 2000 six-month net loss was $1,828,000, or $0.34 per share, compared to a net loss of $1,000,000, or $0.23 per share in 1999. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash and cash equivalents were $2,022,000 at June 30, 2000 as compared to $1,910,000 of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1999, an increase of $112,000. Operating activities during the period used cash of 8 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $1,416,000, consisting primarily of the net loss for the six-month period offset by approximately $304,000 of non-cash expenses and a decrease in inventory and accounts payable. Investing activities used $60,000 for the purchase of equipment and legal costs related to the preparation of patent applications. Financing activities provided $1,588,000 of cash primarily from two private equity financings in April, 2000. The Company has determined that the current technical issues facing its sole product, the Basis System, are beyond its current financial resources. The Company is taking steps to reduce its operating costs and focus its remaining resources on investigating strategic and financing alternatives, including locating another party with greater resources to further development of its core technology and maximize its commercial potential.

OTHER INFORMATION - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS None. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS During April 2000, the Company issued an aggregate of 525,000 units in two private placement financings, with each unit consisting of one share of the Company's common stock, $.01 par value, and one five-year warrant to purchase a share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.625. The units were sold at a price of $3.25 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds of $1,706,250 and net proceeds of approximately $1,500,000 after deducting agent's commissions of $170,625 and other estimated expenses. Miller Johnson & Kuehn, Inc. of Minneapolis, Minnesota acted as the Company's agent in the private placement. The units were offered and sold solely to "accredited investors" as defined in Rule 501(a) and were issued without registration in reliance on Regulation D and Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In relying upon these exemptions the Company made certain inquiries and received certain assurances to establish that the exemptions were available for the issuance. In particular, the Company confirmed that: (i) the offers of sales and sales were made without general solicitation; (ii) each investor made representations that he or she was "accredited," was sophisticated in relation to the investment, and had reviewed certain information made available by the Company; (iii) each purchaser gave assurance of investment intent and the certificates for the shares and the warrants bear an appropriate legend restricting transfer; and (iv) offers and sales were made to a limited number of persons. In consideration of its services in connection with the April 2000 private placements, the Company also issued the agent five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 52,500 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $3.25 per share. In consideration of a $425,000 capital lease commitment by Dexxon Capital Corporation in April 2000, the Company issued a five-year warrant to Dexxon to purchase up to 13,500 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, with the exact number of shares issuable under the warrant determined by the Company's aggregate borrowings under the capital lease. All of the foregoing warrants were also issued without registration in reliance on Regulation D and Section 4(2), based, among other things, upon the fact that: (i) the warrants were issued without general solicitation; (ii) each recipient was determined to be sophisticated in relation to the investment; (iii) each recipient gave assurance of investment intent and the warrants bear an appropriate legend restricting transfer; and (iv) offers and sales were made to a limited number of persons.
