================== ==================
NOTE C -- CONTINGENCIES
As previously disclosed, the Company is party to actions filed in a federal
District Court in January 1995 and June 1996 in which a competitor alleges that
the Company's manufacture and sale in the United States of certain products
infringes four of the competitor's patents. In its response to these actions,
the Company has denied the allegations and has separately sought judgment that
the claims under
the patents are invalid or unenforceable and that the Company does not infringe
upon the patents. The January 1995 and June 1996 actions have been consolidated,
and discovery is currently underway. The Court has granted the Company's motions
for summary judgment that the Company does not infringe two of the competitor's
patents. The Company believes that none of its products infringe any of the
patents in question in the event that any one or more of such patents should be
held to be valid, and it intends to vigorously defend this position.
NOTE D MERGER; POOLING OF INTERESTS ACCOUNTING
In February 1998, the Company merged a wholly owned subsidiary with Healthdyne
Technologies, Inc. ("Healthdyne") in a stock for stock merger by issuing
approximately 12,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock in exchange for
the outstanding shares of Healthdyne. The merger was accounted for as a pooling
of interests. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements include, for
all periods presented, the combined financial results and financial position of
the Company and Healthdyne. Healthdyne has since been renamed Respironics
Georgia, Inc.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES REFORM ACT OF 1995
The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, specifically
those contained in Item 2 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition", along with statements in other reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, external documents and oral
presentations which are not historical are "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21B of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These
forward looking statements represent the Company's present expectations of
beliefs concerning future events. The Company cautions that such statements are
qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Results actually
achieved may differ materially from expected results included in these
statements. Those factors include the following: third party reimbursement;
increasing price competition and other competitive factors in the sale of
products; the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"), the
Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA), the Durable Medical Equipment
Regional Carriers ("DMERC's") and other government regulation; intellectual
property and related litigation; foreign currency fluctuations, regulations and
other factors affecting operations and sales outside the United States including
potential future effects of the change in sovereignty of Hong Kong, and customer
consolidation and concentration.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Result of Operations
and Financial Condition
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 were $86,412,000 representing
a 5% decrease from the $90,750,000 recorded for the quarter ended September 30,
1997. Sales for the quarter were adversely impacted by a decrease in sales of
the Company's non-invasive ventilatory support products compared to prior year
levels. This sales decrease was due primarily to uncertainty in the market
concerning insurance coverage guidelines for the home use of these products in
the United States and the corresponding reduction in purchases of these units by
the Company's dealer customers pending resolution of the coverage guidelines.
Government policy makers issued a draft coverage policy in July 1998 that was
more restrictive than had been expected. The Company, along with trade and
medical associations, other device manufacturers, and home care dealers, have
filed formal comments as permitted
with the policy makers indicating disagreement with the draft coverage policy.
The Company estimates that a final coverage policy will be issued in early
calendar year 1999 and believes that until these final guidelines are issued,
sales of its noninvasive ventilatory support units for home use in the United
States will continue to be negatively impacted as compared with periods prior to
the uncertainty regarding insurance coverage guidelines. If the final guidelines
issued are either as restrictive as, or more restrictive than, the draft
guidelines, the Company's sales of its noninvasive ventilatory support units for
home use in the United States will continue to be negatively impacted. Sales in
the current quarter of the Company's other major product line, obstructive sleep
apnea products, increased on a unit and dollar basis as compared to prior year
totals.
The Company's gross profit was 48% of net sales for the quarter ended September
30, 1998 as compared to 50% for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. This
decrease in gross margin percentage was caused by lower total sales levels,
sales mix, and decreases in average selling prices for certain of the Company's
products (which had been expected).
General and administrative expenses were $10,651,000 (12% of net sales) for the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to $9,329,000 (10% of net sales)
for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The increase in the expenses for the
quarter was due primarily to increased information systems costs, legal fees,
allowances for doubtful accounts, and other administrative expenses. These
increased expenses were partially offset by cost reductions that the Company
obtained since the February 1998 merger with Healthdyne.
Sales, marketing and commission expenses were $14,994,000 (17% of net sales)
for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to $15,930,000 (18% of net
sales) for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The decrease in these
expenses was due primarily to the cost reductions that the Company obtained
since the closing of the merger with Healthdyne in February 1998.
Research and development expenses were $4,554,000 (5% of net sales) for the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to $5,416,000 (6% of net sales) for
the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The decrease in these expenses was due
primarily to the elimination of duplicate development efforts since the closing
of the merger with Healthdyne in February 1998. Significant product development
efforts are ongoing, and new product launches in all of the Company's major
product areas are planned for fiscal year 1999.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Company incurred $650,000 in
costs associated with an unsolicited offer to acquire Healthdyne.
The Company's effective income tax rate was 40% for the quarter ended September
30, 1998 and for the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
As a result of the factors described above, the Company's net income was
$6,309,000 (7% of net sales) or $0.19 per diluted share for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998 as compared to $7,853,000 (9% of net sales) or $0.24 per
diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had working capital of $151,294,000 at September 30, 1998 and
$137,550,000 at June 30, 1998. Net cash provided by operating activities was
$2,431,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to $5,393,000
for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The decrease in net cash provided
by operating activities for the current quarter was due primarily to lower
earnings, an increase in accounts receivable greater than the increase in
that account last year and the payment of certain obligations related to the
Healthdyne merger that had been accrued in prior periods.
Net cash used by investing activities was $4,510,000 for quarter ended September
30, 1998 as compared to $6,376,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
The majority of the cash used by investing activities for both periods
represented capital expenditures, including the purchase of production
equipment, computer and telecommunications equipment, and office equipment. The
funding for the investment activities in the current and prior quarter was
provided by positive cash flows from operating activities and accumulated cash
and short term investments.
Net cash provided by financing activities includes borrowings and repayments
under the Company's various long-term obligations. In August 1998, the
Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock buy-back of up to 1,000,000
shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. During the quarter ended
September 30, 1998, the Company repurchased 652,000 shares under the buyback
program, resulting in a use of cash of $8,400,000. In October 1998, the
Company's Board of Directors authorized an additional 1,000,000 shares under the
buyback program. As of November 13, 1998, the Company has repurchased a total
of 1,166,000 shares in open market transactions. Shares that are repurchased
are added to treasury shares pending future use and will reduce the number of
shares outstanding.
The Company believes that positive cash flow from operating activities projected
for the remainder of the fiscal year, the availability of additional funds under
its revolving credit facility and its accumulated cash and short-term
investments will be sufficient to meet its current and presently anticipated
future needs for the remainder of fiscal year 1999 for operating activities,
investing activities, and financing activities.
