Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
December 31, 1998
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements for the interim periods are unaudited and
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and operating results for the interim periods. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto, together with the management's discussion and analysis,
contained on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1998. The results of
operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending June 30,
1999.
NOTE 2: Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of
Sonics & Materials, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary, Tooltex, Inc. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
NOTE 4: Comprehensive Income
As of July 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130
establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components in the financial statements. The adoption of SFAS No. 130 had no
impact on the Company's net income or stockholders' equity. For the six and
three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, there were no items of
comprehensive income to report.

<PAGE>
Any statements in this filing that are not statements of historical fact are
forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of important risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.
Specifically, any forward looking statements in this filing related to the
Company's objective for future growth, profitability and financial returns are
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to,
risks related to a growing market demand for Sonics' existing and new products,
continued growth in sales and market share of Sonics and its USS products,
pricing, market acceptance of existing and new products, a fluctuation in the
sales product mix, general economic conditions, competitive products, and
product technology development. There can be no assurance that such objectives
will be achieved. The Company's objectives of future growth, profitability and
financial returns are also subject to the uncertainty of Vibra~Surge Corporation
being able to successfully market its ultrasonics surgical device. It is also
uncertain whether a patent will be granted for the Company's ultrasonic surgical
device, or whether any related patent litigation may hinder the Company's
ability to market the device. In addition, the Company's objectives of future
growth, profitability and financial returns are also subject to the uncertainty
of the growth and profitability of its wholly owned subsidiary, Tooltex. It is
also uncertain whether the Company's recent cost cutting measures will result in
increased profitability.
Item 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
financial statements included herein, see Item 1, and the financial information
contained in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended June 30, 1998.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended December 31, 1998 compared to the three months ended December
31, 1997.
Net sales. Net sales for the quarter ended December 31, 1998 increased
$88,000 or 3.1% over the quarter ended December 31, 1997. This increase is
primarily the result of increased sales generated by the Company's Tooltex
subsidiary ("Tooltex").
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased from 54.3% of net sales for the
three months ended December 31, 1997 to 56.5% of sales for the three months
ended December 31, 1998. This increase is primarily the result of increased
sales generated by Tooltex. Tooltex primarily manufactures custom machinery with
a lower profit margin than the machinery manufactured by Sonics.
Selling Expenses. Selling expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 1999
decreased $194,000 or 21.9% over the same period in fiscal 1998. As a percentage
of net sales, selling expenses decreased from 31.4% to 23.7% over the same
periods. This is in large part the result of the cost cutting lay-offs
implemented by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
for the second quarter of fiscal 1999 increased $30,000 or 9.4% over the second
quarter of fiscal 1998. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses increased
slightly, from 11.3% to 12.0% over the same periods. This increase in primarily
the result of increased professional fees and legal costs.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses
decreased $71,000 or 47.9% over the same period in fiscal 1998. The decrease was
primarily due to a reduction in labor costs and outside consulting .
Interest Income. Interest income for the second quarter of fiscal 1999
decreased by $47,000 over the same period in fiscal 1998. In December of 1997,
the Company received the proceeds from the Industrial Revenue Bond issue and
invested those proceeds in short-term investments. The proceeds were eventually
used in the purchase and renovation of the Company's current facilities. (See
Liquidity and Capital Resources.)
7
<PAGE>
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased by $28,000 or 35.8%.
This is due to increased debt carried by the Company in connection with the
purchase of real property in Newtown, Connecticut. The Company also had higher
average borrowings on its line of credit than in the second quarter of fiscal
1998.
Other Income. Other income for the three months ended December 31, 1998
decreased $66,000 or 100.2% compared to the three months ended December 31,
1997. In the second quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company recognized approximately
$62,000 resulting from the forgiveness by Tooltex vendors of debts owed. No such
forgiveness was granted in the current quarter.
Income Taxes. Total income tax expense for the three months ended December
31, 1998 increased $12,000 or 100.0% compared to the three months ended December
31, 1997. The absence of a provision in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 is the
result of a net operating loss carryforward from fiscal 1998.
Six months ended December 31, 1998 compared to the six months ended December 31,
1997.
Net sales. Net sales for the six months ended December 31, 1998 increased
$430,000 or 7.2% over the same period in fiscal 1998. This increase is primarily
the result of increased sales generated by Tooltex.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased from 56.6% of net sales for the six
months ended December 31, 1997 to 58.9% of sales for the six months ended
December 31, 1998. This increase is primarily the result of increased sales
generated by Tooltex.
Selling Expenses. Selling expenses for the first half of fiscal 1999
decreased $99,000 or 6.1% over the same period in fiscal 1998. As a percentage
of net sales, selling expenses decreased from 27.2% to 23.8% over the same
periods. This is in large part the result of the cost cutting lay-offs
implemented by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
for the first half of fiscal 1999 decreased $35,000 or 5.5% over the first half
of fiscal 1998. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses decreasing from
10.6% to 9.3% over the same periods. This decrease is partially the result of
salary reductions offset by increased professional fees and legal costs.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses
decreased $110,000 or 36.6% over the same period in fiscal 1998. The decrease
was primarily due to a reduction in labor costs and outside consulting.
Interest Income. Interest income for the first half of fiscal 1999
decreased by $22,000 over the same period in fiscal 1998. In December of 1997,
the Company received the proceeds from the Industrial Revenue Bond issue and
invested those proceeds in short-term investments. The proceeds were eventually
used in the purchase and renovation of the Company's current facilities. (See
Liquidity and Capital Resources.)
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased by $103,000 or 88.3%.
This is due to increased debt carried by the Company in connection with the
purchase of real property in Newtown, Connecticut. The Company also had higher
average borrowings on its line of credit than in the first half of fiscal 1998.
Other Income. Other income for the six months ended December 31, 1998
decreased $82,000 or 108.4% compared to the three months ended December 31,
1997. In the second quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company recognized approximately
$62,000 resulting from the forgiveness by Tooltex vendors of debts owed. No such
forgiveness was granted in the current fiscal year.

<PAGE>
Income Taxes. Total income tax expense for the six months ended December
31, 1998 increased $4,000 or 100.0% compared to the six months ended December
31, 1997. The absence of a provision in the first half of fiscal 1999 is the
result of a net operating loss carryforward from fiscal 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operations of the Company used approximately $380,000 during the six months
ended December 31, 1998 as a result of increased inventory accompanied by a
reduction of accounts receivable and accounts payable. During the first half of
fiscal 1999, the Company invested approximately $61,000 in new capital
equipment. The Company was able to raise the funds necessary for these
expenditures through the sale of certain short-term investments and the
financing activities described below.
On September 19, 1997, the Company entered into a new credit arrangement with a
bank and repaid loans outstanding with its previous lender. The agreement, as
amended on October 13, 1998, provides for four credit facilities, including (i)
a Bridge Loan in the original principal amount of $1,600,000, (ii) a Line of
Credit of up to $1,500,000, (iii) a term loan of $427,000, and (iv) a tax-exempt
industrial development loan in the aggregate amount of $3,810,000. The loans are
secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, including a first
mortgage lien on the Company's manufacturing facility in Newtown, CT.
The Bridge Loan, which carried interest at the Bank's base lending rate plus
one-half percent, was repaid in full in December 1997.
The Company's principal outside source of working capital is a $1,500,000 bank
credit facility. The Line of Credit bears interest, as amended, at the Bank's
base lending rate (7.75% at December 31, 1998). Advances under the Line of
Credit are at the Bank's sole discretion. The entire principal balance of the
Line of Credit, which at December 31, 1998 was $1,465,101, will mature and be
due and payable upon the demand of the Bank. The borrowings under the Line of
Credit may be prepaid in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any
time.
The proceeds of the Term Loan refinanced a term loan with another bank with
interest and principal totaling $427,000. The outstanding principal amount of
the Term Loan at December 31, 1998 is $288,853, which bears interest, as
amended, at the Bank's base lending rate (7.75% at December 31, 1998). The
remaining balance is to be paid in monthly installments of $6,279 and the entire
remaining principal balance will mature and be due and payable on October 1,
2002. The terms and conditions under which Sonics may prepay all or any portion
of the Term Loan are the same as for the Line of Credit discussed above.
In December 1997, the Company issued Industrial Revenue Bonds through the
Connecticut Development Authority in the amount of $3,810,000. The bonds were
purchased by the Company's current lender pursuant to the credit agreement. The
proceeds were used in part to (i) pay in full the outstanding interest and
principal due on the Bridge Loan discussed above (ii) purchase and preparation
of the Company's new facilities, and (iii) to purchase new machinery and
equipment. The Company has used a total of $2,157,000 of the proceeds for these
purposes through December 31, 1998. Unapplied funds have been invested in
short-term securities and are to be used to repay interest and principal due
under the Industrial Revenue Bond. The Bonds, held by the Bank, mature in
November 2017, and bear interest at 75% of the Bank's base lending rate (5 4/5%
at December 31, 1998). The Company is to begin to redeem the principal in 228
equal monthly installments of $16,700 beginning January 1999. The bondholder,
however, may make written demand for redemption of all or a part of outstanding
principal and accrued interest commencing in December 2000. In connection with
the IRB loan, the Company maintains a compensating balance of $400,000 with the
Bank. These funds are invested in U. S. Treasury Bonds.
Tooltex's principal credit facility is a term note in the original principal
amount of $461,000, and is guaranteed by the Company. The loan is payable in
forty-eight monthly installments of $9,604 plus interest at the prime rate plus
1 1/2%. The loan is secured by a first lien on the assets of Tooltex and is
subject to various covenants.

<PAGE>
The Company instituted cost cutting measures in the form of lay-offs effective
September 25, 1998. In total, the Company reduced staffing by 11 people, or 9%,
through these lay-offs and attrition, primarily in the manufacturing and sales
departments. Through these staffing cuts and other cost saving measures
implemented by Tooltex in the second quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company expects
to save approximately $643,000 annually. In connection with the cost cutting
measures, the Company incurred a one-time charge of approximately $48,000.
Management has initiated a company-wide program to prepare the Company's
computer systems and applications for the year 2000, as well as identify
critical third parties, which the Company relies upon to operate its business to
assess their readiness for the year 2000. Management has determined that the
main computer systems that the Company relies upon to manage its operations are
year 2000 compliant. In addition, since the Company's products do not have an
internal date/clock, the year 2000 bug does not affect them. The Company has not
had the need to incur any material costs in preparation for the year 2000.
Management cannot presently estimate any future costs of this program; however
such costs are not currently expected to be material to the Company's operations
or financial condition. The Company is currently contacting its major vendors to
assess their readiness for the year 2000. Presently, the Company is not aware of
any key vendors or customers, whose potential inability to achieve year 2000
compliance in time would have a material adverse effect to the operations of the
Company. There can be no assurance, however, that the systems of other companies
which the Company's systems rely upon will be timely converted, or that such
failure to convert by another company would not have a material adverse effect
on the Company's systems and results of operations.
