AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER MATTERS ------------------------------------------------------------ (A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION --------------------- The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003. (B) CHANGE IN STATE OF INCORPORATION -------------------------------- At the Company's June 27, 2002 annual meeting, the stockholders approved the changing of the State of Incorporation of the Company from New York to Delaware. The new Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.02 per share, and the issuance of 250,000 shares of blank check preferred stock. No shares of preferred stock are issued or outstanding. (C) INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE ----------------------- Basic income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents (options, warrants and convertible subordinated notes) outstanding during the period, except where the effect would be antidilutive, computed in accordance with the treasury stock method. (D) PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES -------------------------- For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, there were no current provisions for income taxes on domestic operations. The provision for income taxes on foreign operations was $2,850 and $26,650 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. The provision for income taxes on foreign operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 was estimated at $7,000 and $20,500, respectively. Prior to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, the Company would not have needed a valuation allowance for the portion of the net operating losses equal to the amount of tax-deductible goodwill and trade names amortization expected to occur during the carryforward period of the net operating losses based on the timing of the reversal of these taxable temporary differences. As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the reversal will not occur during the carryforward period of the net operating losses. Therefore, the Company recorded a deferred income tax expense of approximately $35,250 and $100,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, respectively, which would not have been required prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142. 7 (E) RECLASSIFICATIONS ----------------- Certain amounts have been reclassified in the prior period consolidated financial statements to present them on a basis consistent with the current year. (F) SEASONALITY ----------- A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is derived from the sale of custom orthotics. North American custom orthotic revenue has historically been significantly higher in the warmer months of the year, while custom orthotic revenue of the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary has historically not evidenced any seasonality. (G) STOCK OPTIONS ------------- At September 30, 2003, the Company has two stock-based employee compensation plans. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income (loss), as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and income (loss) per share if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation. Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, --------------------------------- --------------------------------- 2003 2002 2003 2002 -------------- -------------- --------------- -------------- Net income (loss) - as reported $ 49,469 $ (101,435) $ (182,311) $ (723,912) Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value basis method for all rewards, net of tax (31,478) (31,478) (112,838) (47,217) -------------- -------------- --------------- -------------- Pro forma net income (loss) $ 17,991 $ (132,913) $ (295,149) $ (771,129) ============== ============== =============== ============== Net income (loss) per share: Basic- as reported $ .01 $ (.02) $ (.04) $ (.17) ============== ============== =============== ============== Basic- pro forma $ .00 $ (.03) $ (.07) $ (.18) ============== ============== =============== ============== Diluted- as reported $ .01 $ (.02) $ (.04) $ (.17) ============== ============== =============== ============== Diluted- pro forma $ .00 $ (.03) $ (.07) $ (.18) ============== ============== =============== ============== 8 (H) RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS ----------------------------------------- In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), which requires variable interest entities (commonly referred to as SPEs) to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if certain criteria are met. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. The Interpretation applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company does not have any variable interest entities. Therefore, the adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 is generally effective for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in certain contracts, entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how to classify and measure certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In 2002, the Company adopted the provision of Emerging Issues Task Force ("ETIF") Consensus No. 00-10 "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs," which addresses the income statement classification for shipping and handling fees. In accordance with EITF 00-10, net sales and cost of sales have been increased by $252,710 and $610,033 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, respectively. Net sales and cost of sales have been restated from previously issued reports. The change in classification had no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position. NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS ------------ A) BI-OP, INC. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Bi-Op Laboratories, Inc. ("Bi-Op") pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of January 13, 2003 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"). In connection with the acquisition, the Company paid consideration in Canadian dollars, determined through arms-length negotiation of the parties. When converted to U.S. dollars the total purchase price approximated $1.6 million of which $1.2 million was paid in cash and $.4 million was paid by issuing 107,611 shares of the Company's common stock. $250,000 CDN of the cash portion of the consideration was deposited in escrow until final determination of the closing date balance sheet of Bi-Op as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The purchase price will be reduced dollar for dollar to the extent that the net assets of Bi-Op as of December 31, 2002 were less than $1,000,000 CDN. Conversely, the purchase price will be increased dollar for dollar to the extent that the net assets of Bi-Op as of the closing date exceeded $1,000,000 CDN. We funded the entire cash portion of the purchase price through working capital. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Raynald Henry, Bi-Op's principal owner, having a term of three years and providing for an annual base salary of $75,000 CDN and benefits, including certain severance payments. 9 The following table sets forth the components of the estimated purchase price: Cash consideration $ 1,201,574 Common stock issued 369,106 Transaction costs 513,149 --------------- Total purchase price $ 2,083,829 =============== The following table provides the preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price: Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 194,531 Accounts receivables 292,372 Inventories 111,153 Prepaid expenses and other 143,919 Property and equipment 437,478 Goodwill 606,832 Identified intangible assets 900,000 Other assets 41,803 --------------- 2,728,088 --------------- Liabilities: Accounts payable 68,801 Accrued liabilities 118,633 Deferred income tax 270,000 Long term debt and other liabilities 186,825 --------------- 644,259 --------------- Total purchase price $ 2,083,829 =============== B) BENEFOOT, INC. AND BENEFOOT PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS, INC. ------------------------------------------------------- On May 6, 2002, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of each of Benefoot, Inc. and Benefoot Professional Products, Inc. (jointly, "Benefoot"), pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"). The assets acquired include machinery and equipment, other fixed assets, inventory, receivables, contract rights, and intangible assets. In connection with the acquisition, the Company paid consideration of $6.1 million, of which $3.8 million was paid in cash, $1.8 million was paid through the issuance of promissory notes (the "Promissory Notes") and $500,000 was paid by issuing 61,805 shares of common stock (the "Shares"), together with certain registration rights. $1,000,000 of the Promissory Notes were paid on May 6, 2003 and the balances are due on May 6, 2004. The Promissory Notes bear interest at 4%. The Company also assumed certain liabilities of Benefoot, including approximately $300,000 of long-term indebtedness. The Company also agreed to pay Benefoot up to an additional $1,000,000 upon satisfaction of certain performance targets on or prior to May 6, 2004. As of September 30, 2003, the Company has paid $301,201 based upon the satisfaction of performance targets for 2002. The Company funded the entire cash portion of the purchase price through working capital generated principally through the prior sale of the Company's 4% convertible subordinated notes due August 31, 2006. In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an employment agreement with each of two former shareholders of Benefoot, each having a term of two years and providing for an annual base salary of $150,000 and benefits, including certain severance arrangements. One of these shareholders subsequently terminated his employment agreement with the Company. As a result, the Company accrued $94,000 for termination costs. The Company also entered into an agreement with Sheldon Langer as a medical consultant providing for an annual fee of $45,000 and a one-time grant of 3,090 shares of common stock, together with certain registration rights. The allocation of the purchase price among the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is based on the Company's valuation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of Benefoot. 10 The following table sets forth the components of the estimated purchase price: Cash consideration $ 3,800,351 Benefoot long term debt paid at closing 307,211 -------------- Total cash paid at closing $ 4,107,562 Promissory notes issued 1,800,000 Common stock issued 529,512 Transaction costs 680,228 Contingent consideration 301,201 -------------- Total purchase price $ 7,418,503 ============== The following table provides the allocation of the purchase price: Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 225,953 Accounts receivables 806,370 Inventories 660,559 Prepaid expenses and other 76,973 Property and equipment 155,110 Goodwill 3,414,106 Identified intangible assets 3,430,000 Other assets 6,162 -------------- 8,775,233 -------------- Liabilities: Accounts payable 647,873 Accrued liabilities 389,400 Unearned revenue 210,355 Long term debt & other liabilities 109,102 -------------- 1,356,730 -------------- Total purchase price $ 7,418,503 ============== In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, the Company will not amortize goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives (trade names with an estimated fair value of $1,600,000). The Company did not recognize any impairment losses on goodwill during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. Identifiable intangible assets at September 30, 2003 consist of: Accumulated Assets Amortization Period Gross Carrying Value Amortization Net Carrying Value - ----------------------------------- ------------------- -------------------- ------------ ------------------ Trade names indefinite $ 1,600,000 $ - $ 1,600,000 Non-competition agreements 7-8 years 630,000 83,625 546,375 License agreements and 11 years 1,600,000 204,193 1,395,807 related technology Repeat customer base 20 years 500,000 18,750 481,250 -------------------- ------------ ------------------ $ 4,330,000 $ 306,568 $ 4,023,432 ==================== ============ ================== 11 Aggregate amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $63,327 and $189,981, respectively and was $48,034 and $72,010 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, respectively. At September 30, 2003, estimated future amortization expense is approximately $63,000 for the remaining three months of 2003 and approximately $253,000 per annum for 2004 to 2008. Unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, as if the Company acquired Bi-Op and Benefoot at the beginning of that year, include estimates and assumptions which management believes are reasonable. However, pro forma results do not include the realization of cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies or other effects resulting from the acquisition, and are not necessarily indicative of the actual consolidated results of operations had the acquisition occurred on the date assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations. Unaudited pro forma results were: Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, 2002 September 30, 2002 ------------------ ------------------ Net sales $ 5,927,596 $ 17,147,879 Net loss $ (48,240) $ (553,253) Basic and diluted loss per share $ (.01) $ (.13) NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES, NET ---------------- Inventories consist of: September 30, 2003 December 31, 2002 ------------------- ------------------ (Unaudited) Raw materials $ 1,592,513 $ 1,224,136 Work-in-process 180,030 180,135 Finished goods 1,050,668 1,169,287 ------------------- ------------------ 2,823,211 2,573,558 Less: allowance for excess and obsolescence 301,909 220,405 ------------------- ------------------ $ 2,521,302 $ 2,353,153 =================== ================== 12 NOTE 4 - LONG TERM DEBT -------------- On October 31, 2001, the Company completed the sale of $14,589,000 principal amount of its 4% convertible subordinated notes due August 31, 2006 (the "Notes"), in a private placement. The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $6.00 per share (equal to the market value of the Company's stock on October 31, 2001), subject to anti-dilution protections, and are subordinated to existing or future senior indebtedness of the Company. Among other provisions, the Company may, at its option, call, prepay, redeem, repurchase, convert or otherwise acquire (collectively, "Call") the Notes, in whole or in part, (1) after August 31, 2003 or (2) at any time if the closing price of the Company's common stock equals or exceeds $9.00 per share for at least ten consecutive trading days.

The Company received net proceeds of $13,668,067 from the offering of the Notes. The cost of raising these proceeds was $920,933, which is being amortized over the life of the Notes. The amortization of these costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $48,443 and $145,329, respectively and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 was $48,443 and $144,662, respectively. The Company issued $1,800,000 in Promissory Notes in connection with the acquisition of Benefoot. $1,000,000 of the notes were paid on May 6, 2003 and the balances are due on May 6, 2004.

These shares are excluded due to their antidilutive effect as a result of the Company's loss during the period. In addition, the Company's Debentures were not included in the computation of diluted income (loss) per share for the nine and three months ended months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 because the effect of including them would be antidilutive. NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS -------------------------- Langer has engaged a company which is owned by the brother-in-law of a senior executive of Langer, to provide certain technology related products and services. Costs incurred for products and services provided by this company were approximately $27,000 and $110,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, respectively, and approximately $10,500 and $41,500, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, respectively. 16 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- OF OPERATIONS ------------- CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES - ------------------------------------------ The Company disclosed its critical accounting policies and estimates in the December 31, 2002 Form 10-K. There have been no changes to those critical accounting policies and estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $18,282,606 or 37.3% above net sales of $13,314,076 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $6,332,684 or 15.5% above net sales of $5,483,148 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. Net sales of custom orthotics were $14,075,019 and $4,924,434 while net sales of distributed products were $4,207,587 and $1,408,250 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. Net sales for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2003 attributable to acquisitions were $3,356,624 and $427,770, respectively. Net sales of custom orthotics for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $14,075,019 as compared to $10,647,101 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $3,427,918 or 32.2%. Net sales of custom orthotics for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $4,924,434 as compared to $4,174,875 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $749,559 or 18.0%. Net sales of custom orthotics related to acquisitions were $2,196,478 and $425,202 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. Net sales of custom orthotics, exclusive of net sales related to acquisitions, increased $1,231,440 or approximately 11.6% and $324,357 or approximately 7.8% for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2003, respectively, as a result of increases in the Company's Canadian and United Kingdom business and increases in the Company's Langer Ankle Stabilizing Technology (LAST) business. Net sales of distributed products for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $4,207,587 as compared to $2,666,975 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $1,540,612 or 57.8%. Net sales of distributed products for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $1,408,250 as compared to $1,308,273 for the three months ended September 30, 2002, an increase of $99,977 or 7.6%. Net sales of distributed products attributable to acquisitions were $1,160,146 and $2,568 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2003, respectively. Net sales of distributed products exclusive of net sales related to acquisitions increased $380,466 or approximately 14.3% and $97,409 or approximately 7.4% for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2003 respectively, as a result of increases in unit sales of most of the distributed product line. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was 34.5%, as compared to 36.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was 35.0% as compared to 35.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2002. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales declined as a result of higher material costs, offset in part as a percentage of sales by lower labor costs and lower manufacturing overhead. 17 Selling expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $2,333,850 or 12.8% of net sales as compared to $2,190,400 or 16.5% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Selling expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $783,423 or 12.4% of net sales as compared to $870,760 or 15.9% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2002. Selling expenses as a percentage of sales for the quarter improved primarily as a result of the increased revenues from acquisitions which spread the fixed selling costs incurred over a larger sales base. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $3,564,550 or 19.5% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to $2,891,307 or 21.7% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $1,206,363 or 19.0% as compared to $1,035,923 or 18.9% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2002. General and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales improved primarily as a result of the increased revenues from acquisitions, which spread the fixed costs over a larger sales base. General and administrative costs increased in dollars as a result of increased costs incurred as we continue to strengthen our infrastructure. Other income (expense), net, was $(458,687) for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, as compared to $(411,896) for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Other income (expense), net, was $(141,809) for the three months ended September 30, 2003, as compared to $(153,481) for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in other income (expense) is primarily attributable to reduced interest income as cash on hand was expended to complete acquisitions. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Working capital as of September 30, 2003 was $7,675,511, as compared to $10,568,549 as of December 31, 2002. Cash balances at September 30, 2003 were $5,669,923, a decrease of $3,741,787 from the $9,411,710 at December 31, 2002. The reduction in cash is primarily attributable to the cash used to complete the acquisition of Bi-Op, the repayment of $1,000,000 of Promissory Notes in connection with the Benefoot acquisition, the payment of contingent consideration in connection with the Benefoot acquisition as well as cash used to pay year end bonuses, annual insurance premiums and the purchase and implementation of an enterprise wide computer software system. In connection with the acquisition of Benefoot, the Company issued $1,800,000 of 4% Promissory Notes. $1,000,000 of the Promissory Notes were paid on May 6, 2003 and the balances are due on May 6, 2004. Interest expense on these notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $8,000 and $37,932, respectively. The Company's United Kingdom subsidiary maintains a line of credit with a local bank in the amount of 50,000 British pounds, which is guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a standby Letter of Credit. If this credit facility, which has been renewed through February 2004, would not be available, the Company believes it can readily find a suitable replacement, or the Company could supply the necessary capital. Repurchases of the Company's common stock may be made from time to time in the open market at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to available resources. The Company may also finance acquisitions of other companies or product lines in the future from existing cash balances, from borrowings from institutional lenders, and/or the public or private offerings of debt or equity securities. Management believes that its existing cash balances will be adequate to meet the Company's cash needs for the next twelve months. 18 RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - ----------------------------------------- In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), which requires variable interest entities (commonly referred to as SPEs) to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if certain criteria are met. FIN 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. The Interpretation applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The Company does not have any variable interest entities. Therefore, the adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 is generally effective for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in certain contracts, entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how to classify and measure certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In 2002, the Company adopted the provision of Emerging Issues Task Force ("ETIF") Consensus No. 00-10 "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs," which addresses the income statement classification for shipping and handling fees. In accordance with EITF 00-10, net sales and cost of sales have been increased by $252,710 and $610,033 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, respectively. Net sales and cost of sales have been restated from previously issued reports. The change in classification had no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position. CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS - ---------------------------------------------- Information contained or incorporated by reference in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q, in other SEC filings by the Company, in press releases, and in presentations by the Company or its management, contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "expects," "plans," "intends," "estimates," "projects," "could," "may," "will," "should," or "anticipates" or the negative thereof, other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. No assurance can be given that future results covered by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those relating to the Company's financial and operating prospects, future opportunities, the Company's acquisition strategy and ability to integrate acquired companies and assets, outlook of customers, and reception of new products, technologies, and pricing. In addition, such forward looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors including those described from time to time in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3, most recent Form 10-K and 10-Q's and other Company filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Also, the Company's business could be materially adversely affected and the trading price of the Company's common stock could decline if any such risks and uncertainties develop into actual events. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. 19 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK ---------------------------------------------------------- In general, business enterprises can be exposed to market risks, including fluctuation in commodity and raw materials prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates that can adversely affect the cost and results of operating, investing, and financing. In seeking to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with such activities, the Company manages exposure to changes in commodities and raw material prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates through its regular operating and financing activities. The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does the Company utilize leveraged financial instruments or other derivatives. The following discussion about our market rate risk involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company's short-term monetary investments. There is a market rate risk for changes in interest rates earned on short-term money market instruments. There is inherent rollover risk in the short-term money market instruments as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements. However, there is no risk of loss of principal in the short-term money market instruments, only a risk related to a potential reduction in future interest income. Derivative instruments are not presently used to adjust the Company's interest rate risk profile. The majority of the Company's business is denominated in United States dollars. There are costs associated with the Company's operations in foreign countries, primarily the United Kingdom and Canada, that require payments in the local currency and payments received from customers for goods sold in these countries are typically in the local currency. The Company partially manages its foreign currency risk related to those payments by maintaining operating accounts in these foreign countries and by having customers pay the Company in those same currencies. 20 ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES ----------------------- (a) Based on their evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this report, the Company's principal executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that such controls and procedures are effective. (b) There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. 21 PART II.
