NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except per share data)

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements of Hologic, Inc. (the Company) presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended September 25, 2004, included in the Company’s Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 8, 2004.

 

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 25, 2004, the consolidated statements of income and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended December 25, 2004 and December 27, 2003, are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim periods.

 

The results of operations for the three months ended December 25, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 24, 2005. Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current-period presentation.

 

(2) Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of the following:

 

     December 25,
2004


   September 25,
2004


Raw materials and work-in-process

   $ 29,886    $ 31,252

Finished goods

     4,920      8,922
    

  

     $ 34,806    $ 40,174
    

  

 

Work-in-process and finished goods inventories consist of material, labor and manufacturing overhead.

 

(3) Net Income Per Share

 

A reconciliation of basic and diluted share amounts are as follows:

 

     Three Months Ended

    

December 25,

2004


   December 27,
2003


Basic weighted average common shares outstanding

   20,647    19,979

Weighted average common equivalent shares

   1,114    918
    
  

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding

   21,761    20,897
    
  

 

Diluted weighted average shares outstanding do not include options outstanding to purchase 659 and 323 common-equivalent shares as of December 25, 2004 and December 27, 2003, respectively, as their effect would have been antidilutive.

(4) Stock Based Compensation

 

At December 25, 2004, the Company has several stock-based employee compensation plans. The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under the intrinsic method of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretation. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income for the quarters ended December 25, 2004 or December 27, 2003 as all options granted under the plans for those years had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Additionally, the Company has not issued any stock awards to non-employees.

 

The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No.148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation–Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123; therefore, no compensation expense was recognized for the Company’s stock option plans. Had compensation expense for the Company’s stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans, consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 148, the Company’s net income and net income per share would have approximated the pro forma amounts indicated below:

   $ 4,574     $ 1,040

Pro forma net income

   $ 1,906     $ 278  
    


 


Net income per share:

   $ 0.22     $ 0.05

Diluted – as reported

   $ 0.21     $ 0.05  
    


 


Diluted – pro forma

   $ 0.09     $ 0.01  
    


 


 

Hologic has computed the pro forma disclosures required under SFAS No. 148 for stock options granted to employees and shares purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan using the Black Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted-average fair value of each stock option included in the preceding pro forma amounts is amortized over the vesting period of the underlying options. The assumptions used to calculate the SFAS No. 148 pro forma disclosure for stock options granted to employees are as follows:

(6) Business Segments and Geographic Information

 

The Company reports its business in four segments: mammography; osteoporosis assessment; digital detectors and other. As a result of the Company’s implementation of a company wide integrated software application in fiscal 2003, identifiable assets for the four principal operations segments consist of inventories, intangible assets, and property and equipment. The Company has presented all other assets as corporate assets. Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant. Segment information for the three months ended December 25, 2004 and December 27, 2003 is as follows:

(7) Litigation

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to various types of litigation. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to all claims, and, in its opinion, all litigation currently pending or threatened will not reasonably be likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

(8) Product Warranties

 

The Company typically offers a one-year warranty for all of its products. The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty reserves include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty repairs and the cost per repair. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of the warranty reserve and adjusts the amount as necessary.

(9) Related Party Transactions

 

In fiscal 2000 and 2001, the Company loaned an officer an aggregate of $500 which is required to be repaid quarterly through April 2006. In the event of a change in control, as defined, the amounts outstanding will be forgiven. The note is unsecured and bears interest at 7% per annum.

 

In December 2002, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a special bonus program to provide the officer with the funds necessary to pay the quarterly installments due under the loan. Under the special bonus program, for so long as the officer remains an officer of the Company and there are amounts remaining to be repaid under the loan, the Company will pay the officer a special quarterly bonus equal to the amount due under the loan, including interest due, plus an additional payment equal to the taxes due as a result of the special bonus and such additional payment, such that the net-after-tax special quarterly bonus to be received by the officer will equal the principal and interest then due under the loan. During the three months ended December 25, 2004 and December 27, 2003 the Company recognized $80 and $79, respectively, in bonus expense in connection with this program.

 

On December 15, 2004, the Company’s Audit Committee authorized certain payments pursuant to the Company’s relocation program to assist an executive officer in his relocation. In connection with the Company’s program, the Company paid a relocation company approximately $82,000, as an advance against the company’s management fee and direct expenses associated with the sale of the officer’s former residence. This amount may be adjusted based upon the timing and sale price of the former residence at the closing. The Company has also agreed to pay the taxes, maintenance, utilities, insurance and all other operating costs and payments relating to the former residence following the date on which the officer vacates the residence through the date on which the sale is completed. In the event that the relocation company sells the former residence for a price less than the purchase price paid to the officer, the Company has agreed to pay the deficiency of such amount to the relocation company. In the event that the relocation company sells the former residence for a price greater than the purchase price paid to the officer, the relocation company will pay the surplus of such amount to the Company.

 

(10) Recent Accounting Pronouncement

 

On December 16, 2004 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Statement 123R supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach on Statement 123R is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.

Statement 123R must be adopted for interim periods starting after June 15, 2005. The Company expects to adopt Statement 123R starting in its fiscal fourth quarter of 2005 which begins on June 26, 2005 and ends on September 24, 2005.

 

As permitted by Statement 123R the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using Opinion 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognizes no compensation cost for employee stock options. Accordingly, the adoption of Statement 123R’s fair value method will have a significant impact on our result of operations, although it will have no impact on our overall financial position. The impact of adoption of Statement 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in the future and the option pricing model that the Company adopts.

obligations, restructuring and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

 

The critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements that we believe affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements presented in this report are described in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2004. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies.

 

Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Any differences may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. For a discussion of how these and other factors may affect our business, see the “Cautionary Statement” above and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2004.

 

OVERVIEW

 

We are engaged in the development, manufacture and distribution of proprietary X-ray, digital X-ray and other medical imaging systems. Our businesses are reported as four segments: mammography; osteoporosis assessment; digital detectors; and other.

 

Our mammography products include a broad product line of breast imaging products, including film-based and digital mammography systems and breast biopsy systems. Our osteoporosis assessment products primarily consist of dual-energy X-ray bone densitometry systems and, to a lesser extent, an ultrasound-based osteoporosis assessment product. Bone densitometry is the precise measurement of bone density to assist in the diagnosis and monitoring of osteoporosis and other metabolic bone diseases that can lead to debilitating bone fractures. Our digital detector products are a digital component for original equipment manufacturers to incorporate into their own equipment. Our other business segment includes our mini C-arm, conventional general radiography service and digital general radiography systems businesses. Our mini C-arm products are low intensity fluoroscopic systems used primarily for image guidance of minimally invasive surgical procedures on a patient’s extremities. In January 2002, we closed the manufacturing facility for the conventional general radiography products; however, we continue to service and support most of these product lines. We have decided to phase out our digital general radiography systems and to focus on supplying our digital detectors to other original equipment manufacturers.

Table of Contents

In the current three month period, our product sales increased 36% compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in revenues from our mammography products, and to a lesser extent an increase in digital detector sales. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in our other segment product sales, primarily attributable to our continued phasing out of our general radiography systems business and to a lesser extent a decrease in our mini C-arm sales.

 

Mammography product sales increased 69% in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to a $6.1 million increase in digital mammography system sales in the United States, a $4.5 million increase in worldwide analog mammography system sales and a $1.5 million increase in worldwide Multicare stereotactic table sales. The increase in our digital mammography product sales was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of Selenia systems sold, offset in part, by a slight decrease in the average selling price for those systems. In the current quarter we sold 50 digital mammography systems compared to 27 systems in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. We attribute the increase in digital mammography system sales primarily to the growing acceptance of our Selenia mammography system and of digital mammography in general. The increase in sales of our analog mammography systems and Multicare stereotactic tables, worldwide, was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of systems sold in the current quarter as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2004.

 

Osteoporosis assessment product sales increased 3% in the current quarter compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2004, primarily attributable to a $1.3 million increase in product sales in Europe that was partially offset by a $638,000 decrease in product sales in the United States. The total number of our dual-energy x-ray bone densitometry systems sold in Europe and in the United States increased in the current quarter as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2004. The increase in European sales was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of our lower priced Explorer bone densitometry systems sold. The decrease in sales in the United States was primarily attributable to a shift to our lower priced bone densitometry systems sold into the primary care market through the Company’s distribution partner.

 

Digital detector product sales increased 192% in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in the number of digital detectors sold worldwide. Sales of our digital detectors in the current quarter increased by $1.9 million in the United States, $528,000 in Europe and $445,000 in Asia compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2004. The increase in the United States and Asia primarily reflects the increase in the number of digital detectors sold for general radiography systems, while the increase for Europe primarily reflects the higher number of digital detectors sold for the mammography systems of our OEM partner. We believe that our increase in digital detector sales reflects the growing acceptance of digital radiography and our technology, as well as our decision to phase out our digital general radiography systems and to focus on supplying our digital detectors to other original equipment manufacturers.

 

Other product sales decreased 30% in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.3 million decrease in worldwide digital general radiography product sales and a $574,000 decrease in our mini C-arm product sales, primarily in the United States. The decrease in general radiography product sales reflects our decision to phase out our digital general radiography systems. As a result of this decision, we expect our product sales for our digital general radiography systems to be negligible going forward. In the current three month period, sales of digital general radiography systems accounted for $1.9 million of other product revenues. The decrease in sales of our mini C-arm products was primarily due to a reduction in the number of systems sold as a result of increased competition and competitive pricing pressure.

 

In the first three months of fiscal 2005, approximately 66% of product sales were generated in the United States, 20% in Europe, 10% in Asia, 3% in Latin America and 1% in other international markets. In the first three months of fiscal 2004, approximately 63% of product sales were generated in the United States, 19% in Europe, 10% in Asia, 7% in Latin America and 1% in other international markets. We believe the shift in sales to the United States market is primarily due to an increase in demand for our Selenia digital mammography system. The decrease in sales in Latin America during the current three month period was primarily attributable to the fulfillment of a large order for our Selenia digital mammography systems in Mexico in the first three months of fiscal 2004.

Service and other revenue is primarily comprised of revenue generated from our field service organization to provide ongoing service, installation and repair of our products. Service and other revenue increased 22% in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase in service and other revenue in the current quarter was primarily due to increases in spare parts sales of $1.3 million and service contract revenues of $677,000 in our mammography, digital detector and osteoporosis assessment segments. We believe that these increases reflect the continued growth in our installed base of systems and detectors.

The cost of product sales increased 38% in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in the number of mammography systems, digital detectors, and bone densitometry systems sold. These increases were partially offset by decreases in the number of mini C-arm and digital general radiography systems sold.

 

The cost of product sales was relatively constant as a percentage of product sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to fiscal 2004. During the quarter, we experienced increases in cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales due to a reduction in the average selling prices for digital mammography systems in the United States and Latin America, a significant increase in the number of lower gross margin analog mammography systems sold, especially internationally, and a shift in sales to lower margin bone densitometry systems, sold both internationally and into the primary care market in the United States. These decreases in gross margins were partially offset by improved margins associated with the significant increase in revenues for digital detectors resulting in an improved absorption of fixed manufacturing costs. In addition, gross margins improved from the shift in mammography product sales to Selenia, our full field digital mammography systems. These systems have significantly higher selling prices, more than offsetting the higher costs of the product, when compared to analog mammography.

Cost of service and other revenue increased both in percentage of service revenue and absolute dollars, primarily related to increased warranty costs in our digital detector business and, to a lesser extent, in our digital mammography business, and due to additional personnel and other costs to expand our service capabilities, especially in the United States to support our growing installed base of products. We expect our costs of service and other revenue to remain relatively high as a percentage of service and other revenue, reflecting our need to employ the required personnel for warranty, non-warranty and installation activities to service our growing installed base of products. We also expect an increase in customers entering into service agreements in connection with our transition to digital mammography and direct service coverage.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased 8% in the current quarter as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in mammography related expenses including our tomosynthesis development project. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in research and development spending and personnel costs primarily related to our phase-out of the digital general radiography systems product line. We expect total research and development expenses to continue to increase as we accelerate our development efforts of tomosynthesis technology for mammography in fiscal 2005.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased by 2% in the current quarter as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase of approximately $510,000 of salaries, benefits and travel expenses from an increase in our direct sales force, $108,000 of increased freight costs and $100,000 of increased commissions to our direct sales force due to the increased product sales in direct territories.. Our current quarter selling and marketing expenses included approximately $1.7 million for our annual RSNA trade show expenses, compared to approximately $1.6 million of such expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. These increases were partially offset by a reduction of approximately $583,000 of international distributor commissions primarily related to the sale of Selenias in Mexico in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. Sales and marketing expenses have also shifted between the operating segments for the current quarter by increasing in mammography, reflecting our increased revenues from that segment, and decreasing for each of our other business segments.

 

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased 14% in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in the current quarter of approximately $450,000 in bonus and profit sharing expense in accordance with the applicable plans as a result of continued improved financial results.

In the current quarter, interest expense and other income (expense) primarily consisted of $119,000 of foreign currency transaction gain that was offset by $100,000 of interest costs on the Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. note payable. In the first quarter of fiscal 2004, we had interest expense of $81,000 and a transaction loss of $10,000. To the extent that foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate in the future, we may be exposed to continued financial risk. Although we have established a borrowing line of credit denominated in the foreign currency, the euro, in which our subsidiaries currently conduct business to minimize this risk, we cannot assure that we will be successful or can fully hedge our outstanding exposure.

would increase income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made. We have provided for nominal federal, state and foreign taxes for fiscal 2005 and 2004 and certain minimum taxes where net operating losses cannot be used.

 

Segment Results of Operations

 

Our businesses are reported as four segments: mammography; osteoporosis assessment; digital detectors and other. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the footnotes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in our 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We measure segment performance based on total revenues and operating income or loss. Revenues from product sales of each of these segments are described in further detail above. The discussion that follows is a summary analysis of total revenues and the primary changes in operating income or loss by segment.

Mammography revenues increased primarily due to the $12.5 million increase in product sales discussed above and a $1.8 million increase in service revenues. The increase in service revenues of 43% in the current quarter is primarily related to the increased number of systems in our installed base. Operating income for this business segment increased primarily due to the increased revenues. Our gross margin in this business segment was 39% in the current quarter compared to 42% in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The decrease in the current quarter’s gross margin percentage was primarily due to a reduction in the average selling prices for digital mammography systems, a significant increase in sales of analog mammography systems sold internationally at lower selling prices than in the United States and at lower gross margins than the digital mammography product line, and an increase in service related costs. In general, we expect improved gross margins in fiscal 2005 from the shift in product revenues to our more profitable Selenia full field digital mammography systems from our analog mammography systems.

Osteoporosis assessment revenues increased in the current quarter compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to the $349,000 increase in product sales discussed above and a $259,000 increase in service revenues related to the increased number of systems in our installed base. Operating income for osteoporosis assessment increased primarily due to a reduction in operating expenses. Our gross margin in this business segment was 41% in the current quarter compared to 45% in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The decrease in osteoporosis assessment gross margins was primarily attributable to a shift to international sales where we generally sell at lower prices through distributors, an increase in sales of our lower priced Explorer bone densitometer system in international markets, and a shift to lower priced systems sold into the United States primary care market.

Digital detector revenues increased primarily due to the increased number of digital detectors sold as discussed above and a $721,000 increase in service and other revenues. The service revenues increase is due to the increase in the number of detectors in the installed base. The decrease in the digital detector business operating loss is primarily due to the increased product revenues and the improved gross profit from that increase, which was partially offset by an increase in our warranty expense and, to a lesser extent, an increase in operating expenses. Our gross margin in this business segment was 14% in the current three month period, compared to (8%) in the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily attributable to an increase in research and development spending related to our tomosynthesis development project.

Revenues for this business segment, which includes the mini C-arm business, the digital general radiography business and the conventional general radiography service business, decreased primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in digital general radiography systems sold worldwide, as a result of our phase-out of that business, and a $574,000 decrease in product sales of our mini C-arm products primarily in the United States. The improvements in operating income were primarily due to lower operating expenses as a result of our decision to de-emphasize the digital general radiography systems business, which has been substantially phased out, and to reallocate resources and costs in order to focus on the more profitable and faster growing digital mammography systems.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At December 25, 2004 we had approximately $126.3 million of working capital. At that date our cash and cash equivalents totaled $72.7 million. Our cash and cash equivalents balance increased approximately $4.4 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 primarily due to cash provided by operating and financing activities partially offset by the use of cash for purchases of property and equipment.

 

Our cash provided by operating activities was $5.3 million, which included net income of $4.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 increased by non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of an aggregate of $1.9 million. Cash used by operations due to changes in our current assets and liabilities included an increase in accounts receivable of $3.4 million, a decrease in accrued expenses of $2.1 million and a decrease in accounts payable of $901,000. These uses of cash were partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $5.6 million. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to increased revenues in the current quarter. The decreases in accrued expenses and accounts payable were primarily due to the timing of payments. The decrease in inventory was primarily the result of improved supply chain management.

 

In the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we used approximately $3.1 million of cash in investing activities. This use of cash was primarily attributable to purchases of property and equipment, which consisted primarily of manufacturing equipment, demonstration equipment, computer hardware, and a new roof at our Newark, Delaware facility.

 

In the first quarter of fiscal 2005, financing activities provided us with $1.7 million of cash. These cash flows included approximately $1.9 million from the exercise of stock options partially offset by repayments, totaling $120,000, of our term loan with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc.

 

As of December 25, 2004 we had short term borrowings, including the current portion of our long-term obligations of $473,000 and long term notes payable totaling $354,000. These amounts represent our obligations of our term loan under our credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc.

 

In September 2001 we obtained a secured loan from Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. This loan agreement provides for a term loan of approximately $2.4 million, which we borrowed at signing, and a revolving line of credit facility. The maximum amount we can borrow under the loan agreement and amendments is $20.0 million. The loan agreement and amendments contain financial and other covenants and the actual amount which we can borrow under the line of credit at any time is based upon a formula tied to the amount of our qualifying accounts receivable. At December 25, 2004, the total amount of availability under this formula was $20.0 million. In July 2003 we amended this loan agreement primarily to simplify financial covenants and to reduce the fees related to this facility. The term loan accrues interest at prime plus 1.0% for five years. The line of credit advances accrue interest at a prime plus 0.25%. The line of credit expires in September 2005. We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 25, 2004, except for the capital expenditures covenant. We obtained a waiver to this covenant from Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. At December 25, 2004, there were no outstanding borrowings under our line of credit.

 

We maintain an unsecured line of credit with a European bank for the equivalent of $3.0 million, which bears interest at the Europe Interbank Offered Rate (2.12% at September 25, 2004) plus 1.5%. The borrowings under this line are primarily used by our European subsidiaries to settle intercompany sales and are denominated in the respective local currencies of its European subsidiaries. The line of credit may be canceled by the bank with 30 days notice. At December 25, 2004 and September 25, 2004, there were no outstanding borrowings under this line.

 

In September 2002, we completed a sale/leaseback transaction for our headquarters and manufacturing facility located in Bedford, Massachusetts and our Lorad manufacturing facility in Danbury, Connecticut. The

transaction resulted in net proceeds to us of $31.4 million. The lease for these facilities, including the associated land, has a term of 20 years, with four five-year renewal terms, which we may exercise at our option. The basic rent for the facilities is $3.2 million per year, which is subject to adjustment for increases in the consumer price index. The aggregate total minimum lease payments during the initial 20-year term are $62.9 million. In addition, we are required to maintain the facilities during the term of the lease and to pay all taxes, insurance, utilities and other costs associated with those facilities. Under the lease, we make customary representations and warranties and agree to certain financial covenants and indemnities. In the event we default on the lease, the landlord may terminate the lease, accelerate payments and collect liquidated damages. We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 25, 2004.

Except as set forth above, we do not have any other significant capital commitments. We are working on several projects, with an emphasis on digital mammography. Subject to the risk factors set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and the general disclaimers set forth in our Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements at the outset of this Report, we believe that we have sufficient funds in order to fund our expected operations over the next twelve months.

 

The expected timing of payment and amounts of the obligations discussed above are estimated based on current information.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

 

Financial Instruments, Other Financial Instruments, and Derivative Commodity Instruments. SFAS No. 107, Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments. Financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, short and long-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt obligations. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying amount.

 

Primary Market Risk Exposures. Our primary market risk exposures are in the areas of interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. We incur interest expense on loans made under a loan and security agreement with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. (the Foothill Agreement) and a European line of credit. The Foothill Agreement term loan accrues interest at the prime rate plus 1.0% and the European Line of Credit accrues interest at the Europe Interbank Offered Rate plus 1.50%. At December 25, 2004, we had $826,000 outstanding under the Foothill Agreement and there were no amounts outstanding under the line of credit.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk. Internationally, we currently operate in Belgium and France. Our international business is subject to risks, including, but not limited to: unique economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors.

 

Substantially all of our sales outside the United States are conducted in U.S. dollar denominated transactions. We operate two European subsidiaries which incur expenses denominated in local currencies. However, we believe that these operating expenses will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

As of December 25, 2004, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in enabling us to record, process, summarize and report information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings within the required time period.

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
