SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2001, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2000 annual report on Form 10-K. 2. ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT Effective April 13, 2001, the Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock" ("EITF 00-19"), which dictates how freestanding contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company's own stock should be classified and measured by the company. The most recent debt modification agreements reached with the Company's senior and subordinate lenders contain embedded put warrants that the Company may have to directly settle. The effect of this adoption is to classify the outstanding warrant for 975 Common Shares as well as the variable fee payable to the subordinated debt holders as derivative instruments with adjustments flowing through results of operations. The recorded value of these warrants at June 30, 2001, after effecting this accounting change, was $742. In addition, the Company has recorded a cumulative effect of change in accounting of $838 effective June 30, 2001 to reflect the adoption of EITF 00-19 and made a reclassification of $254 for warrants in the December 31, 2000 balance sheet. These warrants and fee option are accounted for under SFAS 133 as derivative instruments. These derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting, in accordance with SFAS 133, because they relate to the Company's stock price and not to the underlying debt with which they were issued. A mark to market loss of $380 on the warrants is recorded as other gains/losses in current earnings for the three-month period ended June 30, 2001. 3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The provisions of Statement No. 141 became effective July 1, 2001. The provisions of Statement No. 142 will become effective on January 1, 2002. Because of the recent issuance dates of these standards, we are still evaluating their impact on our results of operations and financial position. Our previous acquisitions have been accounted for on the purchase method of accounting, which is continued in the new standard. Statement No. 142 requires us to annually assess our acquired goodwill for impairment. We will complete that initial assessment in accordance with the standard. We will stop amortization of goodwill effective January 1, 2002. Through June 30, 2001, amortization of goodwill that will no longer be required to be amortized totaled $5.5 million, pretax or $0.45 cents per diluted share. 6 PSC INC.

INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method. Inventory costs include material, direct labor and overhead and consist of the following: June 30, 2001 December 31, 2000 ------------- ------------------ Raw materials $10,457 $12,078 Work-in-process 4,880 4,699 Finished goods 6,012 5,509 $21,349 $22,286 ============= ============= 5. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt consists of the following: June 30, 2001 December 31, 2000 ----------------- ----------------- Term loan $ 62,333 $ 67,500 Senior revolving credit facility 34,000 34,000 Discount on Senior debt (3,418) - Subordinated term loan 30,000 30,000 Discount on Subordinated term loan (1,021) (861) Subordinated promissory note 938 938 Other - 504 -------------- ------------- 122,832 132,081 Less: current maturities 93,853 7,580 -------------- ------------- $ 28,979 $124,501 ============== ============= On April 13, 2001, the Company obtained an agreement from its senior lenders extending the maturity date of the credit facility to April 1, 2002. The agreement modifies certain provisions of the amended credit facilities including financial covenants and is subject to certain terms and conditions. Among other provisions, the commitment for its working capital facility was reduced from $45.0 million to $42.0 million, and the interest rate for the senior credit facilities was increased to prime + 2.25% from April 1, 2001 to September 30, 2001, prime + 2.50% from October 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001 and prime + 3.50% from January 1, 2002 to April 1, 2002. As of the current date, the Company has $34.0 million outstanding under its working capital facility excluding foreign exchange contracts and is restricted from borrowing additional amounts as working capital advances except that prior to September 30, 2001, the Company will be permitted to borrow an amount not to exceed $2.0 million to bridge the closings on certain non-core asset sales. The Company is required to use at least 50% of the net cash proceeds of the sale of the non-core assets to repay amounts borrowed under its senior credit facilities. The Company will be required to pay from $1.5 million to $4.5 million in bank modification fees subject to certain terms and conditions. The term loan and senior revolving credit facilities are due and payable on April 1, 2002. In connection with the subordinated credit facilities, the agreement obtained on April 13, 2001 modifies certain provisions of the credit facilities including financial covenants as well as providing for repricing of the warrants to purchase 975 Common Shares of the Company held by subordinated lenders to $1.15 per share. The Company has agreed to pay the subordinated lenders on a pro rata basis for fees up to a maximum payment of $1.5 million based upon the average prevailing per share market price of the Company's Common Shares on the 15 trading days immediately prior to April 2, 2002, or if the subordinated lenders elect, April 2, 2003. Such payment will be made in sequential installments of 30, 90 and 150 days after April 1, 2002 or April 1, 2003, as applicable. The Company also agreed to pay all interest being accrued from September 30, 2000 until March 31, 2002 on April 2, 2002. In connection with the debt modification agreement reached with its lenders in April 2001, the Company has accrued $4.1 million for debt modification fees payable and recorded a discount on the debt outstanding of $3.7 million. The debt discount is amortized over the remaining life of the debt and recorded as interest expense. The Company is required to meet certain financial covenants related to its senior and subordinated credit facilities. At June 30, 2001, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. The term loan and senior revolving credit agreements expire on April 1, 2002. Accordingly, the Company has classified the entire term loan and senior revolving credit facility as current. The Company intends to engage in negotiations with existing creditors or refinance the Company with new lenders and/or equity prior to April 1, 2002. While there can be no assurance, management believes that the Company can sucessfully refinance amounts due under these credit agreements. The Company has been advised by its independent public accountants that if the Company is unable to renegotiate the term loan and senior revolving credit facility prior to the completion of their audit of the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001, their auditors report on those financial statements may be modified for that contingency. 7 PSC INC.

ASSET SALES As part of the Company's overall restructuring plans, the Company sold its verification and imager product lines on February 16, 2001 for $3.8 million. The gain realized on the sale was approximately $3.2 million. On May 14, 2001, the Company completed the sale of its Webster, New York facility for $5.0 million. The gain realized from the sale was $0.1 million. In November 2000, the Company announced the consolidation of its Webster, New York headquarters with its operations in Eugene, Oregon. As a result, the Company recorded an $8.6 million write-down in connection with the anticipated sale of the Webster, New York facility in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS No. 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of". SFAS No. 121 requires an impairment loss to be recognized if the carrying amount of an asset held for disposal exceeds the fair value of the asset less the cost to sell the asset. The loss recognized in 2000 was $7.9 million on the facility and related leasehold improvements and $0.7 million on other assets and is included in the consolidated statements of operations. On July 13, 2001, the Company announced the completion of the sale of its LazerData business as part of its plan to divest non-core assets, and recorded an estimated loss on disposition of that business of $2.9 million into the second quarter of 2001. Net assets to be disposed of in connection with the sale totaled $6.4 million. The Company is required to use 50% of the net cash proceeds from each of these sales to repay amounts borrowed under its senior credit facilities. 7. SEVERANCE AND OTHER COSTS During the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded a pretax charge of $0.7 million for employee severance and benefit costs associated with the elimination of positions resulting primarily from continued consolidation of the Webster, New York operations with its Eugene, Oregon operations. As of December 31, 2000, the amount of the severance accruals was approximately $2.7 million. Approximately $2.1 million has been paid out in severance accruals in the six-month period ended June 30, 2001. It is anticipated that all current severance accruals should terminate by December 31, 2001. As of June 30, 2001, the amount of the severance accruals was approximately $1.3 million, which relates to current contractual obligations. 8 PSC INC.

NET INCOME/(LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE Basic EPS was computed by dividing reported earnings/losses available to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS was the same as basic EPS for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2001. The following options, warrants and preferred shares were not included in the computation of diluted EPS since the effect of these securities would have been antidilutive. Options to purchase 3,175 and 3,960 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $2.86 and $7.17 per share were outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, respectively. Options to purchase 3,175 and 2,914 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $2.85 and $7.81 per share were outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000, respectively.

DERIVATIVES The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133") as amended as of January 1, 2001 and the effect was not material. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk: The Company's exposure to foreign currency relates primarily to its international subsidiaries. Sales to certain countries are denominated in their local currency. The Company enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to minimize the effect of foreign currency fluctuations relating to these transactions and commitments denominated in foreign currencies. The foreign exchange contracts generally have maturities of up to 60 days and require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. dollars at maturity, at rates agreed to at the inception of the contracts. The foreign exchange contracts have not been designated as hedging instruments and the gains and losses on forward contracts are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Warrants: Effective April 13, 2001, the Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock" ("EITF 00-19"), which requires how freestanding contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company's own stock should be classified and measured by the company. The warrant is for 975 Common Shares and is held by the Company's subordinated creditors. In March 2000, the strike price of this warrant was lowered from $8.00 to $5.25 and subsequently lowered to $1.15 on April 13, 2001 as part of the modification agreements reached on that date. The adoption of EITF 00-19 resulted in a classification out of additional paid-in capital to warrants, a temporary equity item, of $254 at December 31, 2000. Immediately prior to April 13, 2001, the warrants were repriced to fair value resulting in an increase in the book value of the warrants of $108 and a corresponding decrease to cumulative effect of accounting change. Simultaneously, EITF 00-19 required an adjustment of the original value of the warrants of $600 as well as the increase in their fair market value determined at the time of their first repricing of $600 less the amount previously reclassified of $254 for a total adjustment of $946 recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital and an increase to cumulative effect of accounting change. The warrant is now marked to market at its fair value and adjusted through gains/losses in the period in which it is revalued. In connection with the debt modification the Company has agreed to pay the subordinated lenders on a pro rata basis for fees up to a maximum payment of $1.5 million based upon the average prevailing per share market price of the Company's Common Shares on the 15 trading days immediately prior to April 2, 2002, or, if the subordinated lenders elect, April 2, 2003. These warrants and fee option are accounted for under SFAS 133 as derivative instruments. These derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting, in accordance with SFAS 133, because they relate to the Company's stock price and not to the underlying debt with which they were issued. A mark to market loss of $380 on the warrants is recorded as other gains/losses in current earnings for the three-month period ended June 30, 2001. 11 PSC INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 AND JUNE 30, 2000 (All amounts in thousands, except per share data) (Unaudited) 11. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. 12 Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of Operations - ------------- General - ------- The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company's December 31, 2000 annual report on Form 10-K. Overview - -------- As part of a previously announced restructuring plan to reduce debt and achieve greater profitability, certain non-core assets were identified for disposition. On February 16, 2001, the Company sold its verification and imager product lines for $3.8 million. On May 14, 2001, the Company sold its Webster, New York headquarters for $5.0 million. On July 13, 2001, the Company sold its LazerData business for $3.5 million and accrued a loss of $2.9 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2001. Results of Operations: Three Months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Sales. Net sales during the three months ended June 30, 2001 decreased - ---------- $16.9 million or 25.2% compared with the same period in 2000. The decrease in net sales is attributed primarily to the loss of the sales of the U-Scan(R) Express Self-Checkout System of $13.7 million, decreased sales of handheld scanners of $2.1 million and decreased sales of verifiers and other products of $3.5 million, offset by increased sales of Mobile & Wireless products of $2.4 million. Gross Profit. Gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2001 - ------------- decreased $5.9 million or 23.2% compared with the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2001 to 39.2% from 38.2% for the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit dollars is primarily due to the loss of sales of the U-Scan(R) Express Self-Checkout System while the increase in gross profit percent is due to the increased sales of the higher margin Mobile and Wireless products. Engineering, Research and Development. Engineering, Research and Development - -------------------------------------- (ER&D) expenses decreased $1.1 million or 20.2%, compared to the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, ER&D was 8.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 versus 8.0% of net sales for the same period in 2000. The decrease in ER&D is primarily attributable to cost savings efforts brought about by business restructuring. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended - -------------------- June 30, 2001 decreased $0.5 million compared to the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, Sales and Marketing was 15.3% in 2001 versus 12.2% in 2000. The dollar decrease is primarily attributable to cost savings brought about by business restructuring. The percentage increase is due to costs being spread over a lower sales base. General and Administrative. General and Administrative (G&A) expenses decreased - --------------------------- $0.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2000. As a percentage of sales, G&A was 8.3% in 2001 versus 7.2% in 2000. The dollar decrease is primarily attributable to a $0.7 million reduction in litigation expense in 2001 compared to 2000. The percentage increase is due to costs being spread over a lower sales base. Severance and Other Costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2001, the - ------------------------- Company recorded a pretax charge of $0.2 million for employee severance and benefit costs resulting primarily from its plans to consolidate the Webster, New York operations with its Eugene, Oregon operations. During the same period in 2000, the Company reversed a previous charge of $0.3 million associated with the acquisition of Percon and reorganization actions in connection with the Company's sales force. 13 Merger Related Costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company - -------------------- recorded a pretax charge of $1.0 million for failed merger activity. There was no comparable charge for the same period in 2001. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.3 million versus the comparable - ---------------- period in 2000. The increase is primarily due to additional fees assessed as part of the debt modification agreement reached in April 2001. Loss on asset sale. As part of the Company's overall restructuring plans, the - ------------------ Company sold its LazerData business for $3.5 million on July 13, 2001 and recorded $2.9 million for the estimated loss on assets held for sale into the three-month period ended June 30, 2001. There was no comparable transaction in the same period last year. Income Tax Provision/(Benefit). The Company's effective tax rate was (4.7%) for - ------------------------------- the three months ended June 30, 2001 and was 99.8% for the same period in 2000. The Company has not reflected the tax benefits associated with operating losses by placing a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets recorded. The tax provision is for foreign taxes. Results of Operations: Six Months ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Net Sales. Net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased $27.9 - ---------- million or 21.7% compared with the same period in 2000. The decrease in net sales is attributed primarily to the loss of the sales of the U-Scan(R) Express Self-Checkout System of $24.5 million, decreased sales of handheld scanners of $3.3 million and decreased sales of verifiers and other products of $3.8 million, offset by increased sales of Mobile & Wireless products of $3.7 million. Gross Profit. Gross profit during the six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased - ------------- $10.1 million or 20.5% compared with the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased for the six-month period ended June 30, 2001 to 38.9% from 38.3% for the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit dollars is primarily due to the loss of sales of the U-Scan(R) Express Self- Checkout System while the increase in gross profit percent is due to the increased sales of the higher margin Mobile and Wireless products and the impact of cost reduction activities. Engineering, Research and Development. Engineering, Research and Development - -------------------------------------- (ER&D) expenses decreased $2.0 million or 18.0%, compared to the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, ER&D was 9.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 versus 8.7% of net sales for the same period in 2000. The decrease in ER&D is primarily attributable to cost savings efforts brought about by business restructuring. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June - -------------------- 30, 2001 decreased $1.5 million compared to the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, Sales and Marketing was 15.4% in 2001 versus 13.2% in 2000. The dollar decrease is primarily attributable to cost savings brought about by business restructuring. The percentage increase is due to costs being spread over a lower sales base. General and Administrative. General and Administrative (G&A) expenses remained - --------------------------- unchanged from the same period in 2000. Areas of G&A that decreased in the six- month period ended June 30, 2001 verses the same period in 2000: Cost savings resulting from restructuring efficiencies of $0.9 million and decreased charges for litigation of $1.4 million. In connection with obtaining recent debt agreements, the Company has expensed $2.3 million in professional and consulting fees for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 with no comparable expense for the same period in 2000. As a percentage of sales, G&A was 10.4% in 2001 versus 8.2% in 2000. The percentage increase is due to costs being spread over a lower sales base. Severance and Other Costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the - ------------------------- Company recorded a pretax charge of $0.7 million for employee severance and benefit costs resulting primarily from its plans to consolidate the 14 Webster, New York operations with its Eugene, Oregon operations. During the same period in 2000, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge of $1.7 million associated with the acquisition of Percon and reorganization actions in connection with the Company's sales force. Merger Related Costs. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company - -------------------- recorded a pretax charge of $1.0 million for failed merger activity. There was no comparable charge for the same period in 2001. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $2.3 million versus the comparable - ---------------- period in 2000. The increase is primarily due to a 2% default penalty assessed as part of the waiver amendments reached with senior debt holders and additional fees assessed as part of the debt modification agreement reached in April 2001. Gain on asset sale. As part of the Company's overall restructuring plans, the - ------------------ Company sold its verification and imager product lines on February 16, 2001 for $3.8 million. The gain realized on the sale was approximately $3.2 million. On May 14, 2001, the Company sold its Webster, New York headquarters for $5.0 million and recorded a gain of $0.1 million. On July 13, 2001, the Company sold its LazerData business for $3.5 million and an estimated loss on assets held for sale of $2.9 million in the period ended June 30, 2001. The disposition of these product lines did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001, nor will the disposition of these product lines materially impact the full year 2001. There were no comparable transactions in the six months ended June 30, 2000. Income Tax Provision/(Benefit). The Company's effective tax rate was (7.7%) for - ------------------------------- the six months ended June 30, 2001 and was 18.0% for the same period in 2000. The Company has not reflected the tax benefits associated with operating losses by placing a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets recorded. The tax provision is for foreign taxes. Liquidity and Capital Resources: - -------------------------------- Current assets decreased $4.4 million from December 31, 2000 primarily due to decreases in cash and prepaid expenses. Current liabilities increased $88.8 million from December 31, 2000 primarily due to the classification of the senior term loan and senior revolver loan to current portion of long-term debt. Accrued expenses increased $5.5 million due to the inclusion of debt fees associated with the last debt modification agreement. As a result, net working capital decreased $93.2 million from December 31, 2000. Property, plant and equipment expenditures totaled $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared with $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The 2001 expenditures are related to new product tooling, manufacturing equipment, and computer software and hardware. On March 31, 2001, the Company obtained a waiver from its senior debt holders that extended the expiration date of the credit facilities until April 13, 2001 and on the same date, the Company received a waiver from the subordinated lenders that deferred interest payments until April 13, 2001. On April 13, 2001, the Company obtained an agreement from its senior lenders extending the maturity date of the credit facility to April 1, 2002. The agreement modifies certain provisions of the amended credit facilities including financial covenants and is subject to certain terms and conditions. Among other provisions, the commitment for its working capital facility was reduced from $45.0 million to $42.0 million, and the interest rate for the senior credit facilities was increased to prime + 2.25% from April 1, 2001 to September 30, 2001, prime + 2.50% from October 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001 and prime + 3.50% from January 1, 2002 to April 1, 2002. As of the current date, the Company has $34.0 million outstanding under its working capital facility excluding foreign exchange contracts and is restricted from borrowing additional amounts as working capital advances except that prior to September 30, 2001, the Company will be permitted to borrow an amount not to exceed $2.0 15 million to bridge the closings on certain non-core asset sales. The Company is required to use at least 50% of the net cash proceeds of the sale of the non-core assets to repay amounts borrowed under its senior credit facilities. The Company will be required to pay from $1.5 million to $4.5 million in bank modification fees subject to certain terms and conditions. The term loan and senior revolving credit facilities are due and payable on April 1, 2002. In connection with the subordinated credit facilities, the agreement obtained on April 13, 2001 modifies certain provisions of the credit facilities including financial covenants as well as providing for repricing of the warrants to purchase 975 Common Shares of the Company held by subordinated lenders to $1.15 per share. The Company has agreed to pay the subordinated lenders on a pro rata basis for fees up to a maximum payment of $1.5 million based upon the average prevailing per share market price of the Company's Common Shares on the 15 trading days immediately prior to April 2, 2002, or if the subordinated lenders elect, April 2, 2003. Such payment will be made in sequential installments of 30, 90 and 150 days after April 1, 2002 or April 1, 2003, as applicable. The Company also agreed to pay all interest being accrued from September 30, 2000 until March 31, 2002 on April 2, 2002. The Company's liquidity is dependent upon its ability to successfully generate positive cash flow from operations and complete non-core asset sales. Provided that the Company continues to meet the performance targets from its restructured operating plan, management believes the Company will generate sufficient cash flows in 2001 to meet its obligations. The Company will be required to pay up to $6.0 million in bank fees as indicated above. The Company is required to meet certain financial covenants related to its senior and subordinated credit facilities. At June 30, 2001, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. The term loan and senior revolving credit agreements expire on April 1, 2002. Accordingly, the Company has classified the entire term loan and senior revolving credit facility as current. The Company intends to engage in negotiations with existing creditors or refinance the Company with new lenders and/or equity prior to April 1, 2002. While there can be no assurance, management believes that the Company can sucessfully refinance amounts due under these credit agreements. The Company has been advised by its independent public accountants that if the Company is unable to renegotiate the term loan and senior revolving credit facility prior to the completion of their audit of the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001, their auditors report on those financial statements may be modified for that contingency. In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the operations of the Company. 16 Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk - -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company uses foreign currency hedging instruments to reduce the variation in cash flows from its foreign subsidiaries. These contracts are generally for a period of sixty days, and are marked to market monthly with the change in fair value flowing through foreign currency gains/losses. Because of the short duration of these investments, the Company has not experienced significant valuation changes. The Company does not enter into foreign currency contracts for speculative purposes. The Company is exposed to interest rate risks. A hypothetical 1% increase in the prime-lending rate, which the interest on all senior debt is indexed to, would result in an additional $0.7 million in interest expense from July 1, 2001 until the debt is due April 1, 2002. The adoption of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock" ("EITF 00-19") has resulted in the warrant for 975 Common Shares now being marked to market. The effect of this is to have the change in the warrant's fair value flow through other gains/losses when its value is adjusted. A key variable for determining the fair value of the warrant is the Company's common stock price. In addition, the fee option on the Company's subordinated debt is also based on the fair value of the Company's common stock price. The mark to market adjustment on the option's fair value also flows through other gains/losses when its value is adjusted. A hypothetical 10% increase in the Company's common stock price from the closing price would not have a material effect on the fair value of these instruments for the period. Cautionary Statement Pursuant to Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 - ---------------------------------------- Certain statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis may be forward-looking in nature, or "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Management cautions that these statements are estimates of future performance and are highly dependent upon a variety of important factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from the estimate. These factors include the market acceptance of products, competitive product offerings, the disposition of legal issues and the successful completion of non-core asset sales. Profits and available cash flows also will be affected by the Company's ability to control manufacturing and operating costs. Reference should be made to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for further discussion of factors that could affect the Company's future results. 17 PART II: OTHER INFORMATION Item 1: Legal Proceedings: ----------------- The description of the Company's legal proceedings set forth in Item 3 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2000 is incorporated herein by reference.
