AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JULY 31, 2000 (Unaudited) Item 1. 1. The information contained in the interim consolidated financial statements and footnotes is condensed from that which would appear in the annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the interim consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto contained in the April 30, 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Laser Vision Centers, Inc. ("LaserVision") with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of July 31, 2000 and July 31, 1999, and for the three months then ended, include all normal recurring adjustments which management considers necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. 2. The net income per share was computed as described below using the "Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic" during each period. "Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - diluted" for the three months ended July 31, 2000 includes the dilutive effects of warrants and options using the treasury stock method. "Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - diluted" for the three months ended July 31, 1999 includes the dilutive effects of warrants and options using the treasury stock method and the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. For the three months ended July 31, 2000 and 1999, dilutive warrants and options were calculated using an average market price of $5.50 and $29.74 per common share. As of July 31, 2000, 6.5 million warrants and options were outstanding with an average exercise price of about $9.00 each including 4 million warrants and options with an average exercise price of about $4.50. Diluted per share calculations follow: Three months ended July 31, 2000 1999 ---- ---- Net income $ 1,155,000 $ 4,133,000 Deemed preferred dividends (54,000) (50,000) ------------ ------------ Net income applicable to common stockholders $ 1,101,000 $ 4,083,000 Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic 23,918,000 24,177,000 9 10 Dilutive securities - Warrants and options 603,000 3,513,000 Preferred stock 888,000 Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - diluted 24,521,000 28,578,000 Net Income per share - Diluted $0.04 $0.14 3. Effective June 2000 LaserVision acquired Southeast Medical, Inc. (Southeast Medical) of Mandeville, Louisiana for $1.5 million of cash and future contingent consideration which is dependent upon achieving certain levels of revenue. This transaction has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and was financed with existing cash. Southeast Medical is a provider of mobile cataract services in Louisiana and Mississippi and the results of their operations for the two months ended July 31, 2000 are included in the consolidated financial statements of LaserVision. For segment reporting purposes, their result of operations are included in the cataract segment. 4. Short-term investments have an original maturity of more than three months and a remaining maturity of less than one year. These investments are stated at cost as it is the intent of LaserVision to hold these securities until maturity. The fair market value of short-term investments approximates book value at July 31, 2000. 5. The table below presents information about net income and segment assets used by the chief operating decision maker of LaserVision as of and for the quarters ended July 31, 2000 and 1999: Quarter ended July 31, 2000 North American Other Refractive Refractive Cataract Reconciling Total Revenue $18,138,000 $881,000 $3,218,000 - $22,237,000 Interest and other income $769,000 769,000 Interest and other expense (275,000) (275,000) Income tax expense (708,000) (708,000) Net income $1,481,000 $109,000 $363,000 $(798,000) $1,155,000 Quarter ended July 31, 1999 North American Other Refractive Refractive Cataract Reconciling Total Revenue $17,546,000 $583,000 $2,870,000 - $20,999,000 Interest and other income $697,000 697,000 Interest and other expense (299,000) (299,000) Income tax benefit 747,000 747,000 Net income $3,703,000 $(29,000) $376,000 $83,000 $4,133,000 10 11 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Except for historical information, statements relating to LaserVision's plan, objectives and future performance are forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based on management's current expectations. Because of various risks and uncertainties, actual strategies and results in future periods may differ materially from those currently expected. The discussion set forth below analyzes certain factors and trends related to the financial results for each of the quarters ended July 31, 2000 and 1999. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements. ITEM 2. (A) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the quarter ended July 31, 2000, cash and cash equivalents decreased 10% or $1.8 million to $15.9 million from $17.7 million at April 30, 2000. Short-term investments maturing in less than one year decreased to $24.3 million at July 31, 2000 from $31.4 million at April 30, 2000. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities at July 31, 2000 was 3.09 to one, compared to 2.83 to one at April 30, 2000. Cash Flows from Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $3.1 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $6.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. The cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended July 31, 2000 primarily represent the net income in this period plus depreciation and amortization and the decrease in accounts receivable, less the net decrease in current liabilities. The cash flows provided by operating activities during the three months ended July 31, 1999 primarily represent the net income in this period plus depreciation and amortization and the net increase in current liabilities, less the increase in accounts receivable. The significant increase in current liabilities in 1999 was due to the timing of the payment of accrued tax withholdings. The significant decrease in current liabilities in 2000 was due to paying the contingent consideration to the former owners of Midwest Surgical Services, Inc. Cash Flows from Investing Activities Net cash used for investing activities decreased to $1.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $38.7 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. Cash used for investing during the three months ended July 31, 2000 was used to acquire Southeast Medical and enter into partnership agreements and to acquire equipment partially offset by the net proceeds from the sale of short-term and common equity investments. Cash used for investing during the three months ended July 31, 1999 was used to acquire short-term investments and acquire equipment 11 12 partially offset by the sale of minority interest. Cash Flows from Financing Activities During the three months ended July 31, 2000, $3.6 million cash was used in financing activities. During the three months ended July 31, 1999, $48.9 million cash was provided by financing activities. Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended July 31, 2000 was primarily used to purchase treasury stock, make principal payments under capitalized lease obligations and notes payable and to pay proceeds to minority shareholders. Cash provided by financing during the three months ended July 31, 1999 was primarily provided by the underwritten public stock offering and the exercise of stock options and warrants partially offset by principal payments under capitalized lease obligations and notes payable. Income Taxes During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999 LaserVision began recognizing deferred tax assets related to net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards. Based on expected future operating plans, at July 31, 2000, management has determined that the net deferred tax assets generated by operations will more likely than not be utilized to offset future taxes. For tax purposes, the tax benefit related to certain equity transactions that did not impact operating results, such as those arising from the exercise of non-qualified stock options and warrants, will be credited to shareholders' equity and serve to reduce the future taxes paid by LaserVision. In the future, LaserVision anticipates income tax expense to be approximately 38% of income before taxes. With the impact of the equity related tax loss carryforwards, LaserVision expects its cash income tax expense to be about 6%. Overview LaserVision expects to continue to fund future operations from revenues received from providing laser access and market services, existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, the exercise of stock options and warrants and future financing as required. LaserVision is in the process of establishing a $20 million line of credit with a bank for acquisitions and general corporate purposes and an $8 million leasing line with a bank for laser equipment purchases. There can be no assurance that these credit and leasing lines will be finalized or that capital will be available when needed or, if available, that the terms for obtaining such funds will be favorable to LaserVision. (B) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table breaks out revenue by source. This table also includes "net revenue contribution." Net revenue contribution is revenue less license fees paid to laser manufacturers and amounts paid to eye surgeons for professional medical services rendered at our fixed laser sites. Management believes that net revenue contribution provides relevant and useful information to investors because it reflects the dollars available to cover LaserVision's fixed and variable costs after excluding variable costs which LaserVision pays to third parties. Net 12 13 revenue contribution should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit, operating income and net income as a measure of profitability. Finally, the table includes certain profitability amounts as a percentage of total revenue and net revenue contribution. THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2000 1999 Revenue North American refractive $18,138,000 $17,546,000 Other refractive 881,000 583,000 Cataract 3,218,000 2,870,000 ----------- ----------- Total revenue 22,237,000 20,999,000 Royalty fees and professional medical services 5,538,000 6,883,000 Revenue less royalty fees and professional medical services, "net revenue contribution" 16,699,000 14,116,000 Gross profit 7,038,000 7,203,000 % of total revenue 32% 34% % of net revenue contribution 42% 51% Income from operations 1,166,000 3,076,000 % of total revenue 5% 15% % of net revenue contribution 7% 22% Net income before taxes 1,863,000 3,386,000 % of total revenue 8% 16% % of net revenue contribution 11% 24% QUARTER ENDED JULY 31, 2000 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JULY 31, 1999 LaserVision has continued to provide excimer laser access to additional sites throughout the U.S. We are focused on establishing long-term relationships with our customers and providing value-added services through our partnership and market development models. Revenue Total revenue increased by 6% or $1.2 million to $22.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $21.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. Total laser procedures increased by 38% to 32,267 for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from 23,300 for the three months ended July 31, 1999. The increase in revenue is not as great as the increase in procedures primarily due to the 60% decrease in the royalty fees which has decreased the fee we charge to our surgeon customers. Decreasing prices for our services, particularly for higher volume accounts, also contributed to the decrease. The increase in revenue is attributable to an $0.6 million increase in North American refractive revenue, a $0.3 million increase in other refractive revenue and a $0.3 million increase in 13 14 cataract revenue. The increase in North American revenue was attributable to an increase both in the number of U.S. lasers in operation and the number of procedures performed by our eye surgeon customers in the U.S. partially offset by the decline in price due to the 60% decrease in the royalty fee paid to laser manufacturers and lower prices for high volume accounts. Cost of Revenues/Gross Profit Cost of revenues increased by 10% or $1.4 million to $15.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $13.8 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. This was primarily due to an increase of $1.2 million in depreciation, an increase of $0.7 million in mobile laser engineer salaries and travel costs, an increase of $0.7 million in professional medical services and a $0.5 million increase in gases, medical supplies and maintenance, and a $0.3 million increase in costs related to the cataract business partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in royalty fees. The increases in salaries and travel, professional medical services, and gases, medical supplies and maintenance are primarily due to increased refractive procedure volume. Total gross profit decreased by 2% or $0.2 million to $7.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $7.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. The variable gross profit, excluding depreciation, increased by 12% or $1.1 million to $10.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $9.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. This was primarily due to higher volumes of procedures performed with our equipment at an increased number of sites. As a percentage of total revenue, total gross profit decreased to 32% from 34% for the three months ended July 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This decline is primarily due to a decline in the average sales price per procedure greater than the decline in our average cost per procedure. Operating Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 42% or $1.8 million to $5.9 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $4.1 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999. This was attributed to increases in selling and marketing expenses of $1.1 million, increases in salaries and related expenses of $0.2 million, increases in general and administrative expenses of $0.3 million and increases in depreciation and amortization of $0.1 million. The $1.1 million increase in selling and marketing expenses is a result of our change in focus to partnerships and market development sites where we provide substantially all marketing services in exchange for a larger percentage of the global patient fee. Income from Operations The income from operations decreased by $1.9 million to $1.2 million for the three months ended July 31, 2000 from $3.1 million for the three months ended July 31, 1999 based on the factors described above. 14 15 Other Income (Expenses) A one-time gain of $595,000 relative to the sale of an investment in common equity securities increased other income during the quarter ended July 31, 2000. Excluding this one-time event, higher minority interests in net income of subsidiaries partially offset by higher interest income and lower interest expense caused a $208,000 decrease in other income (expense) to a net $102,000 of income during the three months ended July 31, 2000 from a net $310,000 of income during the three months ended July 31, 1999. Taxes Income tax (expense) benefit changed from a tax benefit of $747,000 for the three months ended July 31, 1999 to tax expense of $708,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2000. Given the utilization of NOL carryforwards generated by operations available to offset future taxes for financial reporting purposes, LaserVision anticipates income tax expense to be approximately 38% of income before taxes. 15 16 PART II-OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
