REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Board of Directors
E-Z-EM, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of E-Z-EM,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 1, 1996 and June 3, 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the fifty-two weeks ended June 1, 1996, the fifty-three
weeks ended June 3, 1995 and the fifty-two weeks ended May 28, 1994.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of a certain subsidiary, which statements reflect
total assets constituting approximately 16% in 1996 and 20% in 1995 and
net sales constituting approximately 12% in 1996, 13% in 1995 and 15%
in 1994 of the related consolidated totals. We also did not audit the
financial statements of a certain subsidiary for the fifty-two weeks
ended May 28, 1994, for which the results of operations have been
classified as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
Those statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports thereon
have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to
the amounts included for these subsidiaries, is based solely upon the
reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other
auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of E-Z-EM,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 1, 1996 and June 3, 1995, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash
flows for the fifty-two weeks ended June 1, 1996, the fifty-three weeks
ended June 3, 1995 and the fifty-two weeks ended May 28, 1994, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have also audited the financial statement schedule listed in the
Index at Item 14(a)(2). In our opinion, this schedule presents fairly,
in all material respects, the information required to be set forth
therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 1, 1996, June 3, 1995 and May 28, 1994
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist
the reader in understanding and evaluating the consolidated
financial statements. These policies are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and have been applied
consistently in all material respects.
Basis Of Consolidation
----------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of E-Z-EM,
Inc. and all 100%-owned subsidiaries, as well as the accounts of
Surgical Dynamics Inc. ("SDI"), a 51%-owned subsidiary prior to its
sale in November 1995 (the "Company"). SDI has been reported as a
discontinued operation and, accordingly, the gain from the sale of
SDI and the Company's proportionate share of losses from operations
of SDI have been classified as a discontinued operation for all
periods presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of
earnings. The discontinued operation has not been segregated in
the accompanying statements of consolidated cash flows and,
therefore, amounts for certain captions will not agree with the
respective consolidated statements of earnings. The Company is
primarily engaged in developing, manufacturing and marketing
diagnostic products used by radiologists and other physicians
during image-assisted procedures to detect physical abnormalities
and diseases.
Operations outside the U.S. are included in the consolidated
financial statements and consist of: a subsidiary operating a
mining and chemical processing operation in Nova Scotia, Canada and
a manufacturing and marketing facility in Montreal, Canada; a
subsidiary manufacturing products located in Puerto Rico; a
subsidiary manufacturing and marketing products located in Japan; a
subsidiary promoting and distributing products located in Holland;
and a subsidiary promoting and distributing products located in the
United Kingdom.
Fiscal Year
-----------
The Company reports on a fiscal year which concludes on the Saturday
nearest to May 31. Fiscal year 1996 ended on June 1, 1996 for a
reporting period of fifty-two weeks, fiscal year 1995 ended on June
3, 1995 for a reporting period of fifty-three weeks and fiscal
year 1994 ended on May 28, 1994 for a reporting period of fifty-two
weeks.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
The Company considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments
purchased with a maturity of less than three months to be cash
equivalents. Included in cash equivalents are certificates of

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
deposit and Eurodollar investments of $1,796,000 and $1,133,000 at
June 1, 1996 and June 3, 1995, respectively. The carrying amount
of these financial instruments reasonably approximates fair value
because of their short maturity. Foreign-denominated cash and cash
equivalents aggregated $1,101,000 and $1,695,000 at June 1, 1996
and June 3, 1995, respectively.
Debt and Equity Securities
--------------------------
Effective in fiscal 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115"). In accordance with
the provisions of SFAS 115, this Statement was not applied
retroactively to financial statements prior to fiscal 1995.
Pursuant to SFAS 115, debt and equity securities are to be classified
in three categories and accounted for as follows: debt securities
that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to
maturity are classified as "held-to-maturity securities" and
reported at amortized cost; debt and equity securities that are
bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the
near term are classified as "trading securities" and reported at
fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in
operations; and debt and equity securities not classified as either
held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as
"available-for-sale securities" and reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses excluded from operations and reported
as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of the related
tax effects. Cost is determined using the specific identification
method.
Inventories
-----------
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on the first-in, first-
out method) or market. Appropriate consideration is given to
deterioration, obsolescence and other factors in evaluating net
realizable value.
Property, Plant and Equipment
-----------------------------
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is computed principally using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the related
leases or the useful life of the improvements, whichever is
shorter. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to
expense as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Depreciation expense from continuing operations was $2,308,000,
$2,273,000 and $2,230,000 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Cost in Excess of Fair Value of Net Assets Acquired
---------------------------------------------------
The excess cost is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5
and 40 year periods. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the
valuation and amortization of this asset to determine possible
impairment by comparing the carrying value to the undiscounted
future cash flows of the related asset. Amortization from
continuing operations was $73,000, $70,000 and $65,000 in 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively.
Intangible Assets
-----------------
Intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over
the estimated useful lives of the respective assets ranging from
five to fifteen and one-half years. Amortization from continuing
operations was $47,000, $44,000 and $41,000 in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121")
that established accounting standards for the impairment of long-
lived assets, certain intangibles and goodwill related to those
assets to be held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. SFAS 121 is required
to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.
In accordance with SFAS 121, it is the Company's policy to
periodically review and evaluate whether there has been a permanent
impairment in the value of intangibles and adjust the carrying
value accordingly. Factors considered in the valuation include
current operating results, trends and anticipated undiscounted
future cash flows. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS 121 is not
expected to have a significant effect on the consolidated financial
statements of the Company.
Income Taxes
------------
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), deferred income
taxes are recognized for temporary differences between financial
statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and loss
carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards for which income tax
benefits are expected to be realized in future years. A valuation
allowance has been established to reduce deferred tax assets as it
is more likely than not that all, or some portion, of such deferred
tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a
change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Foreign Currency Translation
----------------------------
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
52, "Foreign Currency Translation," the Company has determined that
the functional currency for each of its foreign subsidiaries is the
local currency. This assessment considers that the day-to-day
operations are not dependent upon the economic environment of the
parent's functional currency, financing is effected through their
own operations, and the foreign operations primarily generate and
expend foreign currency. Foreign currency translation adjustments
are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders' equity.
Earnings Per Common Share
-------------------------
Primary and fully diluted earnings per common share are computed on
the basis of the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding plus the common stock equivalents which would arise
from the exercise of stock options, if the latter causes dilution
in earnings per common share in excess of 3%. Common stock
equivalents are included in both the primary and fully diluted
calculations for 1996, 1995 and 1994.
The weighted average number of common shares used was:
1996 1995 1994
---- ---- ----
Primary 9,723,626 9,087,678 9,081,038
Fully diluted 9,832,676 9,092,403 9,081,084
The weighted average number of common shares and the per share
amounts for all periods presented have been retroactively restated
to reflect the total shares issued after the 3% stock dividends
described in Note K.
Stock-Based Compensation
------------------------
Adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123") is required
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995 and allows for a
choice of the method of accounting used for stock-based
compensation. Entities may elect the "intrinsic value" method
based on APB No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" or
the new "fair value" method contained in SFAS 123. The Company
intends to implement SFAS 123 in fiscal 1997 by continuing to
account for stock-based compensation under the guidelines of APB
No. 25. As required by SFAS 123, the pro forma effects on net
earnings and earnings per common share will be determined as if the
fair value based method had been applied and disclosed in the notes
to the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates
----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at year-end and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Reclassifications
-----------------
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to
conform to the 1996 presentation.
NOTE B - DISCONTINUED OPERATION
On November 22, 1995 (the "Closing Date"), E-Z-EM, Inc. completed the
sale of all of the capital stock of SDI held by E-Z-EM, Inc.
through its subsidiary, E-Z-SUB, Inc., (collectively, the
"Company") to United States Surgical Corporation ("USSC") pursuant
to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger Agreement dated
November 7, 1995 (the "Merger Agreement") by and among USSC, USSC
Acquisition Corporation, SDI, CalMed Laboratories, Inc. ("CalMed")
and the Company. As of the Closing Date, the Company owned 51%
(approximately 47% on a fully diluted basis after taking into
account outstanding options) of the outstanding capital stock of
SDI and CalMed, a company not affiliated with E-Z-EM, Inc., owned
49% (approximately 45% on a fully diluted basis after taking into
account outstanding options) of the outstanding capital stock of
SDI. The aggregate consideration paid for SDI was $59,900,000 in
cash, which amount included repayment by USSC of $200,000 of loans
owed by SDI to its shareholders. After closing costs and payments
made to option holders, the Company received, at closing, cash
proceeds of $27,073,000 for the sale of its interest in SDI. In
addition, $510,000 of the consideration payable to the Company is
being held back by USSC as a nonexclusive source of indemnification
for breaches of representations and warranties, and to the extent
not drawn upon, will be repaid to the Company two years after the
Closing Date. As a result of this sale, the Company recognized a
gain, pretax, of approximately $25,539,000, after-tax of
approximately $19,520,000, or $2.01 per common share on a primary
basis. The effective tax rate of 24% on the gain on the sale of
SDI differs from the Federal statutory tax rate of 35% due
primarily to the utilization of previously unrecorded tax loss and
tax credit carryforwards.

SDI is a manufacturer of minimally invasive surgical devices for the
spine, including the NucleotomeTM for use in percutaneous
diskectomy and the Ray Threaded Fusion CageTM spine implants for
use in interbody fusions.
SDI has been reported as a discontinued operation and, accordingly,
the gain from the sale of SDI and the Company's proportionate share
of losses from operations of SDI have been classified as a
discontinued operation for all periods presented in the
accompanying consolidated statements of earnings. Revenues
attributable to the SDI operations were approximately $3,475,000
for the period June 4, 1995 through November 22, 1995 and
$9,071,000 and $8,478,000 for the fiscal years ended June 3, 1995

In 1994, the Company sold to its Canadian subsidiary warrants to
purchase 396,396 shares of stock in ISG Technologies, Inc. This
transaction generated a capital gain for tax purposes of
approximately $3,344,000, utilizing a portion of the Company's
capital loss carryforward and giving rise to a temporary difference
pertaining to the difference between the financial statement and
tax basis in this asset.
During 1996, the Company utilized tax operating and capital losses,
tax credit and AMT credit carryforwards of approximately
$8,279,000, $596,000 and $121,000, respectively, in connection with
the sale of SDI described in Note B.
If not utilized, the tax operating loss carryforwards will expire in
various amounts over the years 1997 through 2010. The tax credit
carryforwards will expire in various amounts over the years 1997
through 2003.
Deferred income taxes are provided for the expected Tollgate tax on

At June 1, 1996, undistributed earnings of certain foreign
subsidiaries aggregated $13,339,000 which will not be subject to
U.S. tax until distributed as dividends. Any taxes paid to foreign
governments on these earnings may be used, in whole or in part, as
credits against the U.S. tax on any dividends distributed from such
earnings. It is not practical to estimate the amount of U.S. tax,
if any, that might be payable on the eventual remittance of such
earnings. On remittance, certain foreign countries impose
withholding taxes that are then available for use as credits
against a U.S. tax liability, if any, subject to certain
limitations. The amount of withholding tax that would be payable
on remittance of the entire amount of undistributed earnings would
approximate $667,000. Under the provisions of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993, undistributed earnings of foreign
subsidiaries may be taxable in certain situations for fiscal years
beginning after September 30, 1993.

The Company is presently a defendant in a product liability action.
This suit claims damages based upon alleged injuries resulting from
the use of one of the Company's products. The action is in its
early stages and while the Company is actively defending against
the claim, it is unable to predict its outcome. It should be noted
that in this action the Company is one among several defendants
and, as such, the Company's liability, if any, is not quantifiable
at this time. The Company does not believe that the ultimate
outcome in this action will have a material adverse effect on the
consolidated financial statements.
The Company was the defendant in a product liability action with
respect to an alleged injury resulting from the use of one of its
products. The Company was dismissed without prejudice from such
action in February 1996.
Pursuant to a contractual agreement with Picker International, Inc.
("Picker"), the Company assumed the defense of a lawsuit in which
Picker, along with multiple other named defendants, had been sued
for injuries alleged to have resulted from the use of protective
aprons. The plaintiff has recently abandoned this action.
The Company has been sued by Olympia Holding Corporation p/k/a P-I-E
Nationwide, Inc. for $443,830. The suit, filed on October 5, 1992,
is presently pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle
District of Florida. The Company is being represented in this
action by a law firm which is also representing numerous other
defendants being sued by the same plaintiff on the same grounds -
recovery for alleged undercharges for freight carriage. It is not
possible, at this stage, to determine what, if any, liability
exists with respect to the Company in this matter. The Company
will vigorously defend against this action; it has been informed by
legal counsel that there exist numerous valid defenses to this
case.
During 1993, SDI's lease agreement on the Alameda, California, office
and production facilities was prematurely terminated by SDI, a
former 51%-owned subsidiary of the Company. In 1993, SDI accrued
$600,000 for the estimated settlement of the lease commitment.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement described in Note B,
the $600,000 liability was assumed by USSC (the purchaser of SDI),
and the Company and the previous minority shareholder of SDI
assumed any liability in excess of $600,000 in connection with the
lease termination. The dispute was settled in July 1996 for
$1,600,000, of which the Company was liable for $510,000, or 51% of
the $1,000,000 excess. Such amount is included in accrued
liabilities at June 1, 1996.

During March 1994, the Company began recalling its effervescent
granules and colon cleansing products due to packaging and
formulation problems, which might have resulted in inconsistent
product performance over time. The recalls were initiated by the
Company's desire to ensure complete product efficacy, as patient
safety issues were not involved. The Company recorded a pretax
provision in the aggregate amount of $1,546,000 during 1994, with
respect to such recalls. During 1995, such recall was completed
and the Company reduced this provision by $156,000 based upon the
actual results of the recall. Such amounts are reflected in cost
of goods sold in the consolidated statements of earnings. These
products currently account for less than five percent of the
Company's sales volume.
The Company leases several facilities from related parties. During
1996, 1995 and 1994, aggregate rental costs under all operating
leases from continuing operations, which primarily consist of
facility rentals, were approximately $1,131,000, $1,041,000 and
$1,288,000, respectively, of which approximately $202,000, $205,000
and $198,000 were paid to related parties. Future annual

NOTE K - COMMON STOCK
In August 1983, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan (the "1983

NOTE M - INDUSTRY SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA OPERATIONS
The Company is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of a wide
variety of products which are classified into two industry
segments: Diagnostic products and AngioDynamics products.
Diagnostic products encompass both contrast systems, consisting of
barium sulfate formulations and related medical devices used in X-
ray, CT-scanning and other imaging examinations, and non-contrast
systems, including diagnostic radiology devices, custom contract
pharmaceuticals, gastrointestinal cleansing laxatives, X-ray
protection equipment, and immunoassay tests. AngioDynamics
products include stent products, angiographic and fluid management
products, and thrombolytic products used in the interventional
medicine marketplace. The Company's primary business activity is
conducted with radiologists and hospitals, located throughout the
U.S. and abroad, through numerous distributors. The Company's
exposure to credit risk is dependent, to a certain extent, on the
healthcare industry. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers and does not generally require
collateral; however, in certain circumstances, the Company may
require letters of credit from its customers.
In the tables below, operating profit (loss) from continuing
operations includes total net sales less operating expenses.
Identifiable assets are those associated with industry segment or
geographic area operations, excluding loans to or investments in
another industry segment or geographic area operation.
Intersegment sales and intergeographic sales are not material.
In 1996, 1995 and 1994, there was one customer to whom sales of
Diagnostic products represented 16%, 15% and 16% of total sales,
respectively. Approximately 21% and 17% of accounts receivable
pertained to this customer at June 1, 1996 and June 3, 1995,
respectively.
