NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

MTS Medication Technologies®, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “MTS”), was incorporated in March 1984. MTS is a holding company that operates through direct and indirect subsidiaries, MTS Packaging Systems, Inc.™ (“MTSP”), MTS Medication Technologies, Ltd. (“MTS Limited”) and MTS Medication Technologies GmbH (“MTS GmbH”). MTS GmbH is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MTS Limited.

MTSP primarily manufactures and sells consumable medication punch cards, packaging equipment and ancillary products throughout the United States (the “U.S.”), Canada and Europe. Its customers are predominantly institutional pharmacies that supply nursing homes, assisted living and correctional facilities with prescription medications for their patients. MTSP manufactures its proprietary consumable punch cards and most of its packaging equipment in its own facilities. This manufacturing process uses integrated equipment for manufacturing the consumable medication punch cards. In addition, MTSP utilizes the services of outside contract manufacturers for some of its packaging equipment. The consumable medication punch cards and packaging equipment are designed to provide a cost-effective method for pharmacies to dispense medications. MTSP’s medication dispensing systems and products provide innovative methods for dispensing medications in disposable packages. MTS Limited distributes products for MTSP primarily in the United Kingdom (the “UK”) and manufactures and sells prescription bags and labels in the UK. MTS GmbH distributes products for MTSP in Germany. The Company currently serves more than 4,500 institutional pharmacies in the long-term care and correctional markets, both domestically and internationally.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP 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. Operating results for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future quarters in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

NOTE 4 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company awards share-based compensation as an incentive for employees to contribute to the Company’s long-term success. Historically, the Company has issued options and restricted stock under its Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Plan”). Share-based compensation is recognized based on the fair value of the awards at the date of grant. Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis. As of September 30, 2009, options to purchase 825,996 shares were outstanding in the aggregate under the Stock Plan and the Company’s previous stock incentive plan, and there were 312,754 options available for issuance under the Stock Plan.

Restricted Stock Awards - The Company grants restricted stock to certain executive employees in exchange for services performed, which is based on the terms of their respective employment agreements. The restricted shares issued are valued based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company issued 0 and 5,000 and 0 and 14,000 shares of restricted common stock to its Chief Operating Officer and European Managing Director, respectively, as additional compensation under their employment agreements. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense in the amount of approximately $0 and $67,450 during the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 based on the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, the Company issued 0 and 5,000 shares of restricted stock to its Chief Operating Officer as additional compensation under his employment agreement. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense in the amount of $0 and $57,000 during the three and six months ended September 30, 2008, based on the fair value of the shares at the date of grant.

Stock Options - The Company grants stock options to employees that allow them to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. Options are also granted to outside members of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company determines the fair value of stock options at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Options generally vest over three- to five-year periods. Awards generally expire 10 years after the date of grant. The Company issues new shares upon the exercise of stock options. No options were granted during the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

Table of Contents

The Company has a reducing revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a maximum borrowing limit of up to $11.7 million at September 30, 2009. Availability under the Credit Facility is permanently reduced by $335,000 each January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 through maturity in 2010.

The Credit Facility contains provisions that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios such as, “Debt Service Coverage”, “Funded Debt to EBITDA” and “Total Liabilities to Tangible Net Worth”. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of September 30, 2009.

The Credit Facility is collateralized by a first security interest in all of the assets of the Company and a pledge of 100% of the shares of its domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries, and 65% of its foreign wholly-owned subsidiaries. There was approximately $6.4 million borrowed and an additional $5.3 million available under the Credit Facility at September 30, 2009.

NOTE 7 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued SFAS No. 168, The Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification is the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. The Codification is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued new guidance on business combinations. The new guidance significantly changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas, including the treatment of contingent consideration, preacquisition contingencies, transaction costs, in-process research and development and restructuring costs. In addition, under the new guidance, changes in an acquired entity’s deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions after the measurement period will impact income tax expense. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted the new guidance on April 1, 2009. The adoption of the new guidance had no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2008, the FASB issued new guidance on fair value measurements. The new guidance applies to such items as nonfinancial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in a business combination (but not measured at fair value in subsequent periods) and nonfinancial long-lived asset groups measured at fair value for an impairment assessment. The Company adopted the new guidance on April 1, 2009. The adoption of the new guidance had no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued new guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. The new guidance requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities to enable investors to better understand the effect these instruments and activities have on an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted the new guidance on April 1, 2009 and included the additional disclosures in Note 10, Derivative Instruments, which are provided on a prospective basis.

Table of Contents

In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance on subsequent events. The standard establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date–that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. This disclosure should alert all users of financial statements that an entity has not evaluated subsequent events after that date in the set of financial statements being presented. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company evaluated all subsequent events through November 14, 2009.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for transfers of financial assets. The guidance requires additional disclosures for transfers of financial assets and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of variable interest entities. The guidance affects the overall consolidation analysis and requires enhanced disclosures on involvement with variable-interest entities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the guidance on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In October 2009, the FASB issued amendments to the accounting and disclosure for revenue recognition. These amendments, effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (early adoption is permitted), modify the criteria for recognizing revenue in multiple-element arrangements and the scope of what constitutes a non-software deliverable. The Company is currently assessing the impact of these amendments on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 8 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company evaluates its business under three segments: (a) Consumables; (b) Packaging Automation; and (c) Medication Administration Systems. The Consumables Segment primarily consists of the manufacturing of punch cards and blisters and other consumable medication packaging. The Packaging Automation segment consists of products that provide customers with the ability to package medication into the Company’s consumable products in an efficient manner. This type of automation allows the packaging of medication in either a pre-pack or an on-demand manner. The Medication Administration Systems segment consists of automation products designed to provide customers with a system to administer medication to residents at long-term care facilities. These segments represent the manner in which the Company’s operations are managed.

Below are sales and operating income (loss) by segment for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and a reconciliation of segment operating income (loss) to earnings (loss) before income taxes. Operating income (loss) is net sales less cost of sales and other operating expenses, excluding equity-based compensation expense and other corporate expenses. Cost of sales and other operating expenses are directly identifiable to the respective segment or allocated on the basis of sales or manpower.

NOTE 9 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The FASB’s accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The FASB’s guidance classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1:    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2:    Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
Level 3:    Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Interest Rate Swaps

   $ (190   —      $ (190   —  

Interest rate swaps are included in other liabilities. The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to hedge fluctuations in variable interest rates associated with its long-term debt. These derivatives are not exchange-traded and are over-the-counter customized derivative transactions with highly rated bank counterparties. The Company estimates the fair value of its derivatives using quotes determined by the swap counterparties.

Non-financial Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Non-financial assets, such as goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and recorded at fair value only when impairment is recognized. The Company performed impairment analyses in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009. Based on the results of impairments tests, the Company determined no impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, or property, plant and equipment existed.

NOTE 10 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company uses derivative instruments in the form of interest rate swaps to manage risks related to interest rates. The interest rate swaps qualify for hedge accounting treatment according to the FASB guidance for accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities.

The Company has two interest rate swap agreements for notional amounts of $2 million and $5 million, respectively. These swap agreements were entered into in order to fix variable interest rates on the revolving long-term debt at an average rate of 4.7% and mature in March 2010 and March 2011, respectively. The swap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges upon meeting the criteria for effectiveness and are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, and the Company calculates the effectiveness of the hedge on a quarterly basis. There was no ineffectiveness during the three and six months ending September 30, 2009. The related gains or losses are recorded in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

NOTE 11 – AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

On August 7, 2009, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with MedPak Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and MedPak Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Parent is an affiliate of Excellere Partners, LLC, a Denver, Colorado based private equity firm (“Excellere Partners”).

 

14


Table of Contents

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each share of common stock of the Company, other than those shares held by the Company, any subsidiary of the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, and other than those shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised, will be converted into the right to receive $5.75 per share in cash (the “Merger Consideration”). Prior to the effective time of the Merger, a portion of the shares owned by certain of the Company’s executive officers (the “Rollover Investors”), including Todd E. Siegel, the Company’s President and CEO, will be contributed to Parent in exchange for a combination of preferred stock and voting common stock of Parent. In addition, all outstanding options to acquire shares of Company common stock will vest at the effective time of the Merger and holders of such options will receive an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share subject to the option for each share subject to the option.

Completion of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions including (i) approval by the Company’s stockholders and (ii) no material adverse effect on the Company’s business or results of operations. The parties currently expect that the Merger will be completed in December 2009.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both Parent and the Company. If the Company terminates the Merger Agreement prior to obtaining stockholder approval as a result of the Special Committee or the Board of Directors concluding in good faith that in light of a superior proposal, it would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary obligations to the Company’s stockholders under applicable law to not withdraw or change its recommendation that the Company’s stockholders approve the Merger Agreement and concurrently with such termination the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to such superior proposal, the Company is required to pay to Parent a termination fee of $1,174,200 (the “Termination Fee”) and reimburse Parent for its fees and expenses incurred with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, up to a maximum of $750,000 (the “Expense Payment”).

If Parent terminates the Merger Agreement because: (i) the Company’s Board of Directors has withdrawn or modified, or publicly proposed to withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to Parent its recommendation with respect to the Merger Agreement; (ii) the Company’s Board of Directors or any committee thereof (a) does not reject any takeover proposal within seven days of the making thereof or (b) does not publicly reconfirm its recommendation that the Company stockholders approve the Merger within three days after receipt of a written request from Parent that it do so; (iii) the Company fails to include the Board of Directors recommendation to approve the Merger in its proxy statement; (iv) the Board of Directors of the Company approves, endorses, or allows the Company to enter into, or recommends to the Company stockholders a merger agreement, letter of intent, acquisition agreement, or other similar agreement with respect to a takeover proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement), (v) if the Company willfully breaches or fails to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the Merger Agreement (or if any such representations or warranties fails to be true), which breach or failure (a) would give rise to the failure of a condition to the Merger and (b) is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, after written notice (a “Breach”), or (vi) the Company or the Company’s Board of Directors or any committee thereof shall have announced its intention to do any of the items listed in clauses (i) through (iv) above, then the Company must pay the Termination Fee and the Expense Payment to Parent.

If (i) the Merger Agreement is terminated (a) by Parent or the Company because the effective time of the Merger has not occurred by December 31, 2009 or within the financing cure period, if applicable, or (b) because stockholder approval was not obtained at the special meeting following a takeover proposal that was made known to the Company prior to the date the Merger Agreement was terminated, including a takeover proposal that was made directly to the Company’s stockholders generally or a takeover proposal that was publicly announced (a “Known Takeover Proposal”); and (ii) (a) the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to, or consummates, a transaction contemplated by any takeover proposal within six months after the date the Merger Agreement is terminated, or (b) with respect to any Known Takeover Proposal, the Company enters into a definitive agreement within 12 months after the date the Merger Agreement is terminated, then the Company must pay the Termination Fee and the Expense Payment to Parent.

 

15


Table of Contents

In addition, if Parent terminates the Merger Agreement because: (i) (a) the Merger has not occurred by December 31, 2009 or within the financing cure period, if applicable, or (b) the Company fails to obtain stockholder approval, in either case unless Parent is required to pay the Company a termination fee or unless a Payment Exception (as defined below) has occurred; (ii) the Company commits a Breach that is not willful; (iii) any events or changes occurred that, individually or in the aggregate, have had or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company; or (iv) the voting agreement entered into among Parent and certain of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Merger is not valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms against the parties thereto, then the Company will pay the Expense Payment, but not the Termination Fee, to Parent.

If the Company terminates the Merger Agreement because Parent has: (i) failed to consummate the Merger on or before the later of (a) December 31, 2009 or (b) if Parent is entitled to attempt to amend, modify or replace its financing commitments, then after the 60 day financing cure period; or (ii) committed a Breach, then Parent must pay the Termination Fee to the Company. However, Parent shall have no obligation to pay the Termination Fee if Parent fails to consummate the Merger or otherwise breaches or fails to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the Merger Agreement as a result of failing to obtain financing primarily because of any material instituted, commenced, pending or threatened action, investigation, litigation or proceeding, provided that Parent has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain financing (a “Payment Exception”).

Parent has obtained commitments for the financing for the Merger, which are subject to customary conditions.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Todd E. Siegel and other members of the Company’s senior management team, who currently own approximately 30% percent of the Company’s outstanding shares, have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Merger.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the Merger is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement which was attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Form 8-K/A filed by the Company with the SEC on August 11, 2009.

Two lawsuits were filed in connection with the Merger. The first case was filed against MTS, each of MTS’s directors, Parent and Merger Sub as a purported class action on behalf of the public stockholders of MTS in the Circuit Court of Pinellas County, Florida on August 13, 2009 and was subsequently amended on September 21, 2009. The second case was filed against MTS, each of MTS’s directors, Parent, Merger Sub, and Excellere Partners as a purported class action on behalf of the public stockholders of MTS in the Circuit Court of Pinellas County, Florida on September 23, 2009. On October 15, 2009, the complaints were consolidated into a single action. The operative complaint alleges, among other things, that the directors of MTS breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty, good faith and independence and breached their duties of truthfulness, candor and trust in connection with the proposed transaction by failing to disclose all material information, engaging in a defective sales process, failing to maximize stockholder value, approving a transaction that purportedly benefits the defendants at the expense of MTS’s public stockholders, and allegedly violating duties of disclosure in connection with its preliminary proxy statement, which was originally filed with the SEC on September 9, 2009 and amended on October 7, 2009 and October 29, 2009. Among other things, the complaint seeks to enjoin MTS, its directors, Parent and Merger Sub from proceeding with or consummating the Merger. Parent, Merger Sub and MTS are alleged to have aided and abetted the individual defendants in breaching their fiduciary duties. No preliminary injunction hearing date has been set. Based on the facts known to date, and the allegations in the operative complaint, we believe that the claims asserted in the consolidated action are without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend against them. There can be no assurance that additional lawsuits pertaining to the Merger will not be filed or that defendants will successfully oppose the entry of an injunction.

NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES

The Company recently concluded an examination of its fiscal year 2008 federal income tax return by the Internal Revenue Service. The examination resulted in an adjustment of approximately $600,000 in taxable income and approximately $200,000 of additional taxes due. The adjustment related to certain product costs that the Company was required to capitalize as part of its inventory valuation. As a result, the adjustment represents a timing difference between net income for financial reporting purposes and taxable income, and therefore, will be recorded as a deferred tax asset.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company incurred approximately $914,000 and $1.3 million, respectively, in costs associated with the Merger Agreement. These costs are not tax deductible and as a result, the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was (129.7%) compared to 36.1% for the same period of the prior fiscal year. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2009 was (944.2%) compared to 36.2% for the same period of the prior fiscal year.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

The Company experienced a decline in net sales during the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared with the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decline results primarily from the fact that in the six months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized revenue for sixteen OnDemand machines that were sold to our largest customer. The Company sold one OnDemand machine to this customer during the six months ended September 30, 2009.

Net sales in our Consumables segment grew approximately 7.9% in the U.S. long-term care market during the six months ended September 30, 2009. Net sales of consumables in Europe grew approximately 2.5% during the six months ended September 30, 2009 due to increased sales to existing and new customers.

The operating loss for our Packaging Automation segment increased during the six months ended September 30, 2009 over the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to the fact that in the prior fiscal year we had higher revenue and gross profit in this segment related to a contract for OnDemand machines with our largest customer. In addition, during the six months ended September 30, 2009, we incurred higher research and development costs related to enhancements to products sold within this segment.

Revenue in our Medication Administration Systems segment is comprised solely of sales of MedLocker® and service and support of existing MedLocker installations. The operations of this segment have resulted in an operating loss of approximately $801,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2009.

The Company had a net operating loss during the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared to a net operating profit during the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to the following factors:

 

  1. Increased costs associated with that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated August 7, 2009 (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company, MedPak Holdings, Inc. (“Parent”) and MedPak Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which and the Company will become a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Excellere Partners, LLC, a Denver, Colorado based private equity firm (“Excellere Partners”).

 

  2. Increased research and development costs associated with improvements to OnDemand technologies.

 

  3. Increased overhead costs associated with the Consumables and Packaging Automation segments.

We use many metrics to evaluate and monitor our business, including the following:

 

  1. revenue growth, gross profit margins, operating income and net income by segment and by geographic area;

 

  2. inventory turnover;

 

  3. account receivable collection days;

 

  4. consolidated net income and operating cash flow; and

 

  5. investing activities.

Each of these key metrics is more fully discussed in this “Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” below.

On August 7, 2009, we entered into the Merger Agreement, which contemplates that all outstanding shares of our common stock, other than those held by us, Parent, Merger Sub, those stockholders who properly exercise appraisal rights, and certain of our directors and officers, who will contribute a portion of their shares of our common stock to Parent for a combination of preferred stock and voting common stock of Parent, will be purchased for $5.75 per share. The Merger Agreement is subject to stockholder approval at a special meeting that will be convened for that purpose and certain other conditions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 11.3% to $18.4 million compared with $20.7 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in sales of OnDemand machines in the current year. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company sold three OnDemand machines at prices totaling $1.3 million, compared to nine machines at prices totaling $5.1 million during the same period in the prior fiscal year. This decrease in sales was partially offset by an 10.4% increase in consumables sales.

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $12.0 million compared with $14.0 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased to 65.4% from 67.8% during the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily because the proportion of revenue associated with OnDemand machines, which have a higher cost of sales percentage than consumables, was lower during the current fiscal year.

Selling, general and administration expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 increased 16.4% to $5.7 million from $4.9 million during the prior fiscal year primarily due to approximately $900,000 in costs associated with the Merger.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 increased 4.0% to $824,000 from $792,000 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase resulted primarily from increased depreciation expense related to recent capital expenditures, as well as amortization expense associated with capitalized product development costs.

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 36.2% to $88,000 from $138,000 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease results primarily from a decrease in long-term debt and lower interest rates.

Income tax expense decreased 8.0% to $288,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared with $313,000 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease results from the fact that we incurred a net loss in this fiscal year although certain costs related to the Merger Agreement are not deductible for tax purposes.

Segments

We evaluate our business under three segments: (a) Consumables; (b) Packaging Automation; and (c) Medication Administration Systems. The Consumables segment primarily consists of the manufacturing of punch cards and blisters and other consumable medication packaging. The Packaging Automation segment consists of products that provide our customers with the ability to package medication into our consumable products in an efficient manner. This type of automation allows the packaging of medication in either a pre-pack or an on-demand manner, which means that our pharmacy customers can elect to package medications for inventory awaiting an order from their long-term care customers or wait until the long-term care customers require the medication and package it at that time. The Medication Administration Systems segment consists of automation products designed to provide our customers with a system to administer medication to residents at long-term care facilities. We currently sell one product, MedLocker. These segments represent the manner in which we manage our operations.

Net sales in the second quarter increased approximately $1.4 million, or 10.4%, primarily due to growth in sales to the U.S. long-term care market of approximately 11.9% and growth in the European domiciliary and retail markets of approximately 4.9%. The growth in the U.S. is primarily attributable to the increase in medications dispensed in long-term care facilities. The European growth is primarily the result of increased penetration of our products into that market.

Operating margins increased in the second quarter primarily due to (a) decreases in raw material costs primarily related to a change in materials utilized to manufacture blisters; (b) lower freight costs; and (c) decreased labor costs resulting from manufacturing efficiencies.

Table of Contents

Net sales increased during the three months ended September 30, 2009 due to increased sales of MedLocker systems.

Our operating loss during the second quarter was higher than the prior fiscal year because we have added personnel to carry out a pilot trial of our MedTimes product and increased research and development expenditures.

Consolidated operating income represents operating income (loss) for the Consumables, Packaging Automation and Medication Administration segments less share-based compensation expense and other corporate expenses.

Six Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

Net sales for the six months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 10.9% to $35.7 million compared with $40.1 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in net sales for OnDemand machines.

Cost of sales for the six months ended September 30, 2009 was $23.2 million compared with $27.4 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased to 65.1% from 68.3% during the same period of the prior fiscal year. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased primarily because the proportion of revenue associated with OnDemand machines, which have a higher cost of sales percentage than consumables, was lower during the current fiscal year.

Selling, general and administration expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2009 increased 14.4% to $10.7 million from $9.4 million for the prior fiscal year primarily due to approximately $1.3 million in costs associated with the Merger.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2009 and for the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 33.0% to $177,000 from $264,000 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease results primarily from a decrease in long-term debt and lower interest rates.

Income tax expense decreased 6.7% to $491,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared with $526,000 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. We incurred a loss this fiscal year although certain costs related to the Merger are not tax deductible for tax purposes.

Net sales during the six months ended September 30, 2009 increased approximately $1.8 million, or 6.5%, primarily due to growth in sales to the U.S. long-term care market of approximately 7.9%. The growth in the U.S. is primarily attributable to the increase in medications dispensed in long-term care facilities.

Operating margins increased during the six months ended September 30, 2009 primarily due to (a) lower freight costs that resulted from lower fuel surcharges; (b) decreases in raw material costs primarily related to materials utilized to manufacture blisters; and (c) decreased labor costs resulting from manufacturing efficiencies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the six months ended September 30, 2009, we had a net loss of $543,000 compared with net income of $929,000 during the same period of the prior fiscal year. Cash provided by operations increased to $2.8 million from $2.0 million during the six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, primarily due to decreases in inventory and decreases in accounts receivable collection days. We had working capital of $11.4 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $12.7 million at March 31, 2009 and $13.7 million at September 30, 2008. Our working capital has continued to decrease as our inventory for OnDemand machines has declined. As accounts receivable related to OnDemand sales have been collected, we have used the cash proceeds to pay down our long-term debt.

Investing activities used $1.0 million during the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared with $2.1 million during the same period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in expenditures for manufacturing equipment used principally in our Consumables segment.

Financing activities used $1.8 million during the six months ended September 30, 2009 compared with $424,000 in the same period of the prior fiscal year. The change results primarily from the fact that our increased operating cash flow was used to reduce our revolving line of credit.

Our short-term and long-term liquidity is primarily dependent on our ability to generate cash flow from operations. Increases in net sales may result in corresponding increases in accounts receivable. Cash flow from operations and borrowing availability under the Credit Facility is anticipated to support an increase in accounts receivable and inventory.

We have new research and development projects underway, in our Packaging Automation and Medication Administration segments, which are expected to be funded by cash flow from operations. These projects are monitored on a regular basis to attempt to ensure that the anticipated costs associated with them do not exceed our ability to fund them from cash flow from operations and other sources of capital.

There was $6.4 million borrowed and an additional $5.3 million available under our Credit Facility at September 30, 2009.

The Credit Facility contains financial covenants that, among other things, require us to maintain certain financial ratios. We were in compliance with all provisions of the loan agreements at September 30, 2009.

We believe that the cash generated from operations during this fiscal year, and amounts available under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our capital expenditures, product development, working capital needs and the principal payments required by our term loan agreements for at least the next 12 months.

ESTIMATES AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses for the respective period ended for such statements. The determination of estimates requires the use of judgment since future events and their effect on our operations cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Actual results typically differ from these estimates in some fashion, and at times, these variances may be material to our financial statements. Our management continually evaluates its estimates and assumptions, which are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and our actual results are subject to the risk factors listed under Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended September 30, 2009 and those listed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. Nevertheless, our management believes the following items involve a higher degree of complexity and judgment.

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue on the sale of machines, other than OnDemand machines, and all consumables when title and risk of loss to the products shipped has transferred to the customer. We recognize revenue related to the sale of our OnDemand machines according to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) guidance for Software Revenue Recognition because the software component of the OnDemand machines is significant and not incidental to the value and functionality of the machine. In addition, the sale of an OnDemand machine represents an arrangement that encompasses multiple deliverables and therefore each deliverable represents a separate unit of accounting. The separate deliverables are comprised of: (a) the OnDemand machine installed at a customer’s location; (b) the user training; (c) certain component parts that are sold separately, principally cassettes that hold medications; and (d) maintenance. These separate deliverables are incidental to the functionality of the machine. The vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of the deliverables outlined in (b) through (d) above has been determined based upon the value of these deliverables if they were sold separately. The fair value of the deliverable outlined in (a) above has been determined using the residual method, which equals the total selling price of the OnDemand machine, including installation, training and cassettes, less the aggregate fair value of (b) through (d) above. The terms of the sale arrangement for an OnDemand machine are typically FOB shipping point, at which time title and risk of loss transfer to the customer; however, because the installation of the machine is essential to the functionality of the machine, the recognition of any of the revenue associated with the machine is deferred until the machine is installed. For those cassettes that are provided to the customer after the OnDemand machine is installed, the revenue associated with those cassettes is recognized upon their delivery. When the training is performed, we recognize the revenue associated with the training. Revenue associated with annual maintenance contracts is recognized in equal amounts over a 12-month period.

Revenue includes certain amounts invoiced to customers for freight and handling charges. We include the actual cost of freight and handling incurred in the cost of sales.

Revenue is reported net of rebates and discounts provided to customers. Rebates are generally determined based upon pricing agreements that offer certain customers incentives to purchase products from us. Discounts are provided from time to time primarily to compensate customers for inconveniences caused by late shipments, defective product or pricing errors.

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded based upon the invoiced amount, are generally not interest bearing and are considered past due when full payment is not received by the specified credit terms. We do not typically require collateral when granting credit; however, customer credit worthiness is reviewed prior to granting credit. We normally estimate the uncollectibility of our accounts receivable when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for uncollectible accounts. We consider many factors when making our estimates, including analyzing accounts receivable and historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms. We review the status of our accounts monthly, including assessing the customers’ ability to pay. When a specific account is deemed uncollectible, the account is written off against the reserve for uncollectible accounts. An additional reserve of one percent of accounts receivable would require an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts and would result in additional expense of approximately $84,000.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. The elements of costs included in the valuation of inventory are the direct costs associated with materials purchased, direct labor expended to manufacture the inventory and an allocation of general overhead expenses incurred to operate the manufacturing facilities. The allowance for inventory obsolescence and slow-moving inventory is reviewed on a regular basis. We review various information related to the age and turnover of specific inventory items to assist with this assessment. An additional reserve of one percent of inventory would require an increase in the inventory reserve accounts and would result in additional expense of approximately $85,000.

Self-Insurance Plan Reserve

We have a medical health benefit self-insurance plan, which covers substantially all of our employees. During the six months ended September 30, 2009, we were reinsured for claims that exceed $100,000 per participant and an annual maximum aggregate limit of approximately $1.6 million. Future claims may affect the reinsurance limits that may be available to us.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for according to the FASB guidance on Accounting for Income Taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management considers anticipated future taxable income, the reversal of taxable temporary differences, and tax planning strategies in making the determination. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. We also report interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions as income taxes.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

We follow the FASB guidance for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and accordingly do not amortize goodwill, but we annually review it for impairment. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events occur or circumstances change that indicate there may be impairment. These events or circumstances could include a significant adverse change in the business climate, poor indicators of operating performance or a sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit. Testing goodwill for impairment requires us to determine the amount of goodwill associated with reporting units, estimate fair values of those reporting units and determine their carrying values. These processes are subjective and require significant estimates. These estimates include judgments about future cash flows that are dependent on internal forecasts, long-term growth rates, allocations of commonly shared assets and estimates of the weighted-average cost of capital used to discount future cash flows. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the results of our reviews for impairment of goodwill. Based on these tests, goodwill was not impaired in 2009 or 2008.

Other intangible assets acquired in acquisitions are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period ranging from seven to fifteen years, representing the estimated useful lives of the assets. Other intangible assets are tested for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act 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 (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a Disclosure Committee, consisting of certain members of management, to assist in this evaluation. The Disclosure Committee meets on a regular quarterly basis, and as needed.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act), at September 30, 2009. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, at September 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that material information relating to the Company required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act 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 management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Notwithstanding the material weakness described below, based on a number of factors including the performance of additional procedures by management designed to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting, our management has concluded that the Consolidated Financial Statements fairly state, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Based on the definition of “material weakness” in the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s Auditing Standard No. 5, “An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Performed in Conjunction With an Audit of Financial Statements”, we determined that because effective controls regarding recording inventory transactions were not in place, the carrying value of our inventory could be misstated, and the related cost of goods sold could also be misstated, and therefore, a material weakness existed in our internal control over financial reporting. We have disclosed this information to our audit committee and to our independent registered public accountants.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weakness

We have realigned the responsibilities for overseeing the personnel who record inventory transactions. These individuals are being supervised by personnel in the accounting department. In addition, new policies and procedures have been instituted and cycle counts of individual inventory items will be made on a regular basis.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has not been any significant change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 other than those described above, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Two lawsuits were filed in connection with the Merger. The first case, captioned Orlando Klass, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, Plaintiff against Todd Siegel, John Stanton, David Kazarian, Allen Braswell, Irv Cohen, Chet Borgida, Edgardo Mercadante, MTS Medication Technologies, Inc., MedPak Holdings, Inc. and MedPak Merger Sub, Inc. (Case No. 09014364CI-013), was filed against MTS, each of MTS’s directors, Parent and Merger Sub as a purported class action on behalf of the public stockholders of MTS in the Circuit Court of Pinellas County, Florida on August 13, 2009 and was subsequently amended on September 21, 2009. The second case, captioned Lue Maggin, on behalf of herself and all others similarly situated, Plaintiff vs. Todd E. Siegel, Allen S. Braswell, Irv I. Cohen, David W. Kazarian, Chet Borgida, John Stanton and Edgardo A. Mercadante, Excellere Partners, LLC, MedPak Holdings, Inc., and MedPak Merger Sub, Inc. and MTS Medication Technologies, Inc. (Case No. 09016859CI013), was filed against MTS, each of MTS’s directors, Parent, Merger Sub, and Excellere Partners as a purported class action on behalf of the public stockholders of MTS in the Circuit Court of Pinellas County, Florida on September 23, 2009. On October 15, 2009, the complaints were consolidated into a single action styled In Re: MTS Medication Technologies, Inc. Shareholder Litigation, Consolidated Case No. 09014364CI-013 (the “consolidated action”). The operative complaint alleges, among other things, that the directors of MTS breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty, good faith and independence and breached their duties of truthfulness, candor and trust in connection with the proposed transaction by failing to disclose all material information, engaging in a defective sales process, failing to maximize stockholder value, approving a transaction that purportedly benefits the defendants at the expense of MTS’s public stockholders, and allegedly violating duties of disclosure in connection with its preliminary proxy statement, which was originally filed with the SEC on September 9, 2009 and amended on October 7, 2009 and October 29, 2009. Among other things, the complaint seeks to enjoin MTS, its directors, Parent and Merger Sub from proceeding with or consummating the Merger. Parent, Merger Sub and MTS are alleged to have aided and abetted the individual defendants in breaching their fiduciary duties. No preliminary injunction hearing date has been set. Based on the facts known to date, and the allegations in the operative complaint, we believe that the claims asserted in the consolidated action are without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend against them. There can be no assurance that additional lawsuits pertaining to the Merger will not be filed or that defendants will successfully oppose the entry of an injunction.

The absence of an injunction prohibiting the consummation of the Merger is a condition to the closing of the Merger.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 22, 2009 in evaluating us and our business. The specific risk factors set forth below have been updated to provide information as of September 30, 2009. There have been no other material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Form 10-K in response to Item 1A. to Part I of Form 10-K. If any of the risks identified herein or in our Form 10-K, or any other risks and uncertainties that we have not yet identified or that we currently believe are not material, actually occur and are material, it could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The changing United States healthcare environment may negatively impact our revenue and income.

Our products and services are intended to function within the structure of the healthcare financing and reimbursement system currently existing in the United States. In recent years, the healthcare industry has undergone significant changes in an effort to reduce costs and government spending. These changes include an increased reliance on managed care; cuts in Medicare funding affecting our healthcare provider customer base; consolidation of competitors, suppliers and customers; and the development of large, sophisticated purchasing groups. We expect the healthcare industry to continue to change significantly in the future, for example, on November 7, 2009 the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Affordable Health Care for America Act. We cannot predict how the Affordable Health Care for America Act, or other healthcare reform legislation, would impact us. Certain potential changes, such as a reduction in governmental support of healthcare services or adverse changes in legislation or regulations governing prescription drug pricing, healthcare services or mandated benefits, may cause healthcare industry participants to reduce the amount of our products and services they purchase or the price they are willing to pay for our products and services. Changes in pharmaceutical manufacturers’ pricing or distribution policies could also significantly reduce our income.

We face a number of risks associated with the Merger.

On August 7, 2009, we entered into the Merger Agreement with Parent and Merger Sub. We are subject to certain risks as a result of the Merger, including the following:

 

   

there can be no assurance that our stockholders will approve the Merger Agreement or that all of the other closing conditions will be satisfied;

 

   

if the Merger is not completed, the share price of our common stock may decline, to the extent that the current market price of our common stock reflects an assumption that the Merger will be completed;

 

   

we must pay certain costs related to the Merger, including certain fees and/or expenses of our legal, accounting and financial advisors, even if the Merger is not completed;

 

   

we may be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $1,174,200 and reimburse out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, up to a maximum of $750,000, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances set forth in the Merger Agreement;

 

   

our management and employees’ attention may be diverted from day-to-day operations which may disrupt our business;

 

   

our stockholders will receive $5.75 in cash per share of our common stock, despite any possible favorable changes in the market value of our common stock;

 

   

Excellere Partners may be unable to obtain the necessary debt financing arrangements to consummate the Merger; and

 

   

if we are unable to complete the Merger, it could negatively impact the investment community’s perception of us and our business.

We are involved in stockholder litigation regarding the Merger.

Two purported class action lawsuits were filed against us in connection with the Merger, and were subsequently consolidated into a single action on October 15, 2009. Among other things, the complaints seeks to enjoin MTS, its directors, Parent and Merger Sub from proceeding with or consummating the Merger. We believe that the claims asserted in the consolidated action are without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend against them. There can be no assurance that additional lawsuits pertaining to the Merger will not be filed or that defendants will successfully oppose the entry of an injunction.
