Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On January 24, 2000, HealthTronics, Inc. (the "Company"), pursuant to
an Asset Purchase Agreement dated December 10, 1999, completed the acquisition
of the assets of Health Horizons (E.S.W.L.) L.P. for $850,000 in cash and the
assumption of certain liabilities, including a lease, trade and accounts payable
and obligations under regulatory permits. The assets purchased included a
lithotripter and related medical equipment, other furniture, equipment, patient
records and other related assets used in New Jersey Kidney Stone Treatment
Center. The purchase price was determined and negotiated by the parties based on
the expected annual cash flow to be generated by the assets purchased. The
Company has pre-negotiated (subject to negotiation of final agreement terms) to
sell the assets purchased to a partnership which will be managed by the Company
and of which the Company will own less than 20%. The remaining partners will be
independent of the Company. The Company financed the acquisition with working
capital generated by its business. Although financial information is included in
this report on a pro forma basis as though the entity purchased had been owned
by the Company for the year ended December 31, 1999 and for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 this information is not indicative of financial
results that should be expected in the future. The Company never intended to
retain these assets.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors,
Health Horizons (E.S.W.L.) L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Health Horizons (E.S.W.L.)
L.P., as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of income,
changes in partners' capital and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Health Horizons (E.S.W.L.) L.P.
as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules of cost of revenues and
general and administrative expenses are presented for purposes of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such
information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

         Significant accounting policies followed by the Partnership in the
         preparation of the accompanying financial statements are summarized
         below:

         NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

         Health Horizons (E.S.W.L.) L.P. is organized under the Uniformed
         Limited Partnership Act of the State of New Jersey. It was formed on or
         about July 23, 1986. The Partnership was formed to provide a regional
         health care facility for kidney stone treatment using Extracorporeal
         Shock Wave Lithotripsey, (E.S.W.L.). The Partnership is located in New
         Brunswick, New Jersey.

         CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

         Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and in the bank, as well
         as all short-term securities held for the primary purpose of general
         liquidity. Such securities normally mature within three months from the
         date of acquisition.

         INVENTORY

         Inventory consists of electrodes and medical supplies and is carried at
         the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined on the
         first-in, first-out basis.

         PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

         Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation and
         amortization is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated
         useful lives of the respective assets, generally thirty-one and a half
         years for leasehold improvements and seven years for equipment.

         Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; major
         renewals and betterments are capitalized. When items of property or
         equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated
         depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or
         loss is included in income.

         INCOME TAXES

         The income of the Partnership is included in the current taxable income
         of the partners. Consequently, Partnership net income is presented
         without a provision for income taxes.

         NET PATIENT SERVICE REVENUE

         The partnership has agreements with third-party payors that provide for
         payments to the Organization at amounts different from its established
         rates. Payment arrangements include prospectively determined rates per
         discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges, and per diem payments.
         Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable
         amounts from patients, third-party payors, and others for services
         rendered, including estimated retroactive adjustments under
         reimbursement agreements with third-party payors. Retroactive
         adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related
         services are rendered and adjusted in future periods as final
         settlements are determined.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

         USE OF ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
         and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
         liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
         date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
         and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
         from those estimates.

         RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts reported in the 1998 financial statements have been
         reclassified to conform to the 1999 presentations.

NOTE 2 - PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT:

         From the inception of the Partnership, any income or loss generated was
         to be allocated 95 percent to the limited partners and 5 percent to the
         general partner until the limited partners' accumulated distributions
         were equal to their capital contributions. Thereafter, any income or
         loss generated will be allocated 75 percent to the limited partners and
         25 percent to the general partner. As of 1990, the limited partners'
         cumulative distributions were in excess of their capital contributions.
         Therefore, income generated in 1999 and 1998 was allocated 25% to the
         general partner and 75% to the limited partners.

NOTE 3 - INVENTORY:

         At December 31, inventory consisted of the following:



                                  1999         1998

NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS:

         The principal types of property leased by the Partnership are office
         and operating space. The most significant obligations under this lease
         are insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance. The lease expired in
         December of 1999, and will be paid on a month to month basis.

         Total rent expense for the Partnership was $107,105 in 1999 and $92,328
         in 1998.

NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

         The Partnership has entered into a management agreement with its
         general partner, Central Jersey Health Care Corporation (CJHCC). The
         general partner has agreed to provide an established level of staffing,
         certain designated medical equipment and certain office furnishings.
         The compensation relating to this agreement amounted to $862,353 and
         $863,566 for 1999 and 1998, respectively.

         At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership had net advances due to
         the general partner (CJHCC) in the amount of $86,068 and $12,840,
         respectively. The net advances are unsecured and non-interest bearing.

         At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Partnership is liable to Robert Wood
         Johnson University Hospital (RWJUH), a member of the general partner,
         which is a non-profit organization and whose parent company is a
         limited partner, in the amount of $30,772 and $30,483, respectively,
         for purchase of supplies and services. The total amount of purchases
         and services included as a charge to operations amounted to
         approximately $330,000 and $347,000 for the years ended December 31,

NOTE 7 - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:

         The Kidney Stone Treatment center is located in New Brunswick, New
         Jersey. The Center grants credit in the form of accounts receivable to
         users of its center without collateral, most of whom are local
         residents and are insured under third party payor agreements.

         The Organization maintains cash balances at one financial institution
         in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
         Corporation. Management monitors the soundness of this institution and
         considers the Organization's risk negligible.

NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT (UNAUDITED):

         On January 24, 2000, the Partnership consummated an agreement to sell
         substantially all of the assets of the Partnership, excluding cash and
         receivables for $850,000 to Healthtronics, Inc. As of January 25, 2000,
         the Partnership no longer has any operations. The Partnership will
         terminate after all liabilities have been satisfied and the remaining
         assets are distributed.
