The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the Company, these financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company as of May 31, 1996, the results of operations for the three and
nine months ended May 31, 1996 and the cash flows for the three and nine
months ended May 31, 1996.
The accompanying financial statements and related notes should be read in

Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended August 31, 1995. The results
of operations for the three and nine months ended May 31, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

============ ============
1) AMVISC is a registered trademark of Chiron Vision
(4) Other Long-Term Liabilities
---------------------------
Other long-term liabilities consist of the reserve established for
potential losses on the AMVISC manufacturing contract. The balance in the
reserve was $420,757 at May 31, 1996 and has been reclassed to current
liabilities as an accrued expense since the current AMVISC(R) manufacturing
contract expires on December 31, 1996.
(5) Common Stock
------------
In the first week of March, 1996 the Company completed a financing
involving the private placement to institutional and private accredited
investors of 1,455,000 shares of newly issued Common Stock. Total gross
proceeds were approximately $4 million and net proceeds to the Company
after fees and expenses were approximately $3.6 million. In addition, the
Company granted certain registration rights and filed a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering these
securities. A portion of the proceeds from the private placement were used
to repay the $1,000,000 debt due to MedChem (See Note 3).
The Company issued 57,000 warrants for Common Stock exercisable at $3.00
per share and 147,000 warrants for Common Stock exercisable at $4.00 per
share to the placement agent in connection with the private placement of
newly issued common stock.
PART I: FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations
---------------------
Net sales of hyaluronic acid products for the third quarter ended May 31,
1996 totalled $1,461,000, an increase of $531,000 over the $930,000
recorded in net sales for the third quarter of the prior year. For the
nine months ended May 31, 1996, net sales of hyaluronic acid products
totalled $3,343,000, an increase of $807,000 over the $2,536,000
recorded in net sales for the prior year. The increase in sales for the
nine months ended May 31,1996 are primarily attributable to an increase in
AMVISC(R) sales.
Anika's gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 11.5% for the third
quarter of 1996, an increase of 4.5% from the 7% gross profit recorded
over the same quarter in 1995. The increase for the quarter is
attributable to higher manufacturing volume. For the nine months ended May
31, 1996, Anika's gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 1.1%, a
decrease of 18.8% over the 19.9% gross profit recorded for the first nine
months of fiscal 1995. The decrease in the gross profit for the nine
months ended May 31, 1996 is primarily attributable to an unfavorable mix
of product sales in 1996 versus 1995 and higher manufacturing cost for 1996
versus 1995.
Research and development expenses for the third quarter ended May 31, 1996
increased by $154,000 to $465,000 from $311,000 for the same period last
fiscal year. For the nine months ended May 31, 1996, research and
development expenses increased by $212,000 to $1,157,000 from $945,000 in
the prior year. The increase in spending for the three and nine months
ended May 31, 1996 is attributable to an increase in spending on the
ORTHOVISC(R) clinical trial.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter ended
May 31, 1996 increased by $102,000 to $307,000 from $205,000 for the same
period last fiscal year. For the nine months ended May 31, 1996, selling,
general and administrative expenses increased by $219,000 to $878,000 from
$659,000 in the prior year. The increase for the three and nine months
ended May 31, 1996 is attributable to selling and marketing costs
associated with the registration and international marketing of ORTHOVISC,
and additional administrative staff.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
In the first week of March, 1996 the Company completed a financing
involving the private placement to institutional and private accredited
investors of 1,455,000 shares of newly issued Common Stock. Total gross
proceeds were approximately $4 million and net proceeds to the Company
after fees and expenses were approximately $3.6 million. In connection
with the private placement, the Company issued to the placement agent
57,000 warrants for Common Stock exercisable at $3.00 per share and 147,000
warrants for Common Stock exercisable at $4.00 per share. In addition, the
Company granted certain registration rights and filed a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering these
securities which were declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission in May 1996. A portion of the proceeds from the private
placement were used to repay the $1,000,000 debt due to MedChem (See Note
3) and the remaining proceeds are being used for general working capital
purposes.
On May 18, 1995, the Company raised through a private placement $2,235,643,
net of offering costs, from the issuance of 120,970 shares of Series A
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A stock") at a selling
price of $20.00 per share. Each share of the Series A stock is entitled to
receive an annual dividend on May 1 of each year, at a rate of $1.80 per
share, payable in additional shares of Series A stock, with the number of
dividend shares determined by the price of Anika's underlying common stock.
The Company may elect to pay the dividend in cash if certain financial
covenants are met. During each consecutive ninety day period in which the
average quarterly price of Anika's common stock remains above $6.00 per
share, no dividend will accrue.
Anika believes that its cash on hand of $4,030,000 at May 31, 1996 will
fund operating expenses through calendar 1997 and the cost of the
ORTHOVISC(R) clinical trial. However, there can be no assurance that the
cash on hand will be sufficient for this period of time if actual costs and
expenses are higher than anticipated. Commencing January 1, 1997, the
Company will be supplying AMVISC(R) to Chiron Vision under a new five year
supply contract that has selling prices that are substantially higher than
the current contract. Revenues from the AMVISC(R) supply contract should
provide the Company with improved gross margins.
