APPLE ORTHODONTIX, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Apple Orthodontix, Inc. ("Apple" or the "Company") provides practice management
services to orthodontic practices in the United States and Canada. As of June
30, 1999, the Company managed 60 affiliated orthodontic practices (the
"Affiliated Practices") in 19 states and 3 Canadian provinces.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company's
subsidiaries acquire operating assets and assume certain liabilities of the
affiliated orthodontic practices and provide management services to the
Affiliated Practices under the Company's long-term management services
agreements. In 1997, the Emerging Issues Task Force released issue No. 97-2
"Applications of FASB Statement No. 94, Consolidation of all Majority-Owned
Subsidiaries, and APB Opinion No. 16, Business Combinations, to Physician
Practice Management Entities and Certain Other Entities With Contractual
Management Arrangements" (Issue No. 97-2). Issue 97-2 allows consolidation by
the physician practice management company (the "PPM") with the affiliated
physician practice when the PPM has controlling financial interest through a
contractual management arrangement. The Company's management services agreements
do not meet the criteria of Issue 97-2 and the Company has not consolidated the
affiliated orthodontic practices.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have
been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Pursuant to such regulations,
certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes the presentation and
disclosures herein are adequate to make the information not misleading. The
financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal adjustments that
are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results for full years. It is suggested that these unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements of Apple and related notes thereto, and management's discussion and
analysis related thereto, all of which are included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998, as amended, as filed
with the SEC (the "1998 Form 10-K"). The financial information as of December
31, 1998, is derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1998.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
GENERAL
There have been no significant additions to, or changes in, accounting policies
of the Company since December 31, 1998. For a description of the Company's
accounting policies, see Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in
the 1998 Form 10-K.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET
Intangible assets consist primarily of service fee intangibles. Prior to April
1, 1998, these intangibles were amortized over the life of the related service
agreement (ranging from 20 to 40 years) with the respective Affiliated Practice.
In response to recent trends in the practice management industry, the Company
changed its estimate of the remaining useful life of its intangible assets to a
maximum of 25 years effective April 1, 1998 on a prospective basis. If it is
determined that the estimated remaining service period requires further
revision, such revisions would similarly be made on a prospective basis.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA")
issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. SOP 98-1 requires that entities
capitalize certain internal-use software costs once certain criteria are met.
The effective date of SOP 98-1 is for
-6-

APPLE ORTHODONTIX, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. During the six months ended June
30, 1999 the Company capitalized $100,000 related to software developed for
internal use. The Company estimates that this software has a useful life of
three years.
In April 1998, the AICPA issued SOP 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities. SOP 98-5 requires entities to charge to expense start-up costs,
including organizational costs, as incurred. The effective date of SOP 98-5 is
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. The Company's adoption of
SOP 98-5 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The Canadian dollar has been determined to be the functional currency for the
Company's operations in Canada. Translation gains and losses from operations in
Canada are reported in equity and as a component of comprehensive income.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions by
management in determining the reported amounts of liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

4. ORTHODONTIST AFFILIATIONS
During the six months ending June 30, 1999 the Company completed no new
orthodontist affiliations, terminated three service agreements and had seven
orthodontists join existing Affiliated Practices. During the six months ending
June 30, 1998, the Company entered into new affiliations with 15 practices,
representing 21 orthodontists. As a result, the Company was affiliated with 60
practices representing 84 orthodontists as of June 30, 1999, and 66 practices
representing 90 orthodontists as of June 30, 1998.

As a result of the special charge recorded in the fourth quarter of 1998, the
Company was no longer in compliance with certain of the covenants of its $25
million unsecured bank credit facility with Chase Bank of Texas, N.A. (the
"Chase Credit Facility"). On April 14, 1999, the Company amended the Chase
Credit Facility with respect to certain of the covenants. The Chase Credit
Facility, as amended, matures in May 2001 and provides the lenders a security
interest in substantially all the Company's assets. Availability under this
facility is limited by the level of the Company's cash flow and liquidity. At
the Company's option, interest is payable at either a prime rate or LIBOR, in
each case plus a margin, which is calculated based upon the Company's ratio of
indebtedness to cash flow. The Chase Credit Facility limits acquisitions,
prohibits the payment of cash dividends and requires the Company to comply with
certain financial covenants regarding net worth, coverage ratios and additional
indebtedness. As of June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance with all
covenants of the Chase Credit Facility, as amended, and had $875,000 available
under this facility.
The notes payable relate to debts of the Affiliated Practices that were assumed
by the Company.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On February 11, 1999, the Company filed a complaint in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Texas against David V. Young,
D.D.S., M.D.S., and David V. Young, D.D.S., M.D.S., L.C. (collectively, the
"Young Parties") alleging, among other things, breach by the Young Parties of
the Services Agreement dated December 1, 1997 among the Young Parties and the
Company (the "Young Services Agreement"), tortious interference by the Young
Parties of the relationships of the Company with its employees resident in the
State of Utah and fraud by the Young Parties in connection with the repayment by
the Company of certain debts of Dr. Young. In August 1999, the parties entered
into a settlement agreement pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the
complaint was dismissed with prejudice and all claims of the parties were
released, (ii) the Company conveyed to the Young Parties all of the assets it
owned associated with the orthodontic practice supervised by Dr. Young in
exchange for consideration equal to the fair market value of those assets and
(iii) the Young Services Agreement was terminated.
On April 7, 1999, J. Darwin King, D.D.S., M.D.S. ("King") filed a motion for
judgment (the "Motion") in the Circuit Court of the County of Henrico, Virginia
against the Company. On July 26, 1999, the parties settled this case pursuant to
which, among other things, (i) the Motion was dismissed and all claims of the
parties were released, (ii) the Company conveyed to Dr. King all of the assets
it owned associated with the orthodontic practice supervised by him in exchange
for consideration equal to the fair market value of those assets and (iii) the
services agreement to which Dr. King and Apple were parties was terminated.
On May 18, 1999, Stewart L. Jeffries, D.M.D., William A. Spencer, D.M.D., the
respective professional services corporations wholly owned by each of them and a
professional limited liability company jointly owned by them (the "Kentucky
Parties") filed a complaint for damages and declaratory relief (the "Complaint")
in the Circuit Court of the County of Jefferson, Kentucky against the Company
and John G. Vondrak alleging, among other things, breaches of the services
agreements entered into by the Kentucky Parties and the Company. The Complaint
seeks unquantified damages and a declaratory judgment that the services
agreements to which the Kentucky Parties are a party have been terminated. The
Company intends to vigorously defend the claims made by the Kentucky Parties,
which the Company believes are without merit, and to relocate the venue of the
litigation to Texas (as is called for in the services agreements). The lawsuit
is still pending, and the Company cannot predict whether it will succeed, or if
not successful, what effect this may have on the Company.
The Company is not currently a party to any material claims, suits or complaints
relating to services and products provided by the Company or the existing
Affiliated Practices, except for those previously reported, although there can
be no assurance that such claims will not be asserted against the Company in the
future. The Company is subject to certain pending claims as a result of
successor liability in connection with its affiliations with existing Affiliated
Practices; however, the Company believes that the ultimate resolution of those
claims will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or
operating results of the Company.
11. RECENT EVENTS
Since December 31, 1998, eight Affiliated Practices have alleged breaches of
their service agreements by the Company and sought to have the service
agreements terminated (the "Threatened Practices"). As of August 23, 1999 the
Company has terminated four of these service agreements, entered into one
assignment agreement and continues to negotiate with the remaining Threatened
Practices. The Company vigorously denies any breach of the service agreements
with the Threatened Practices and intends to seek enforcement of these
agreements. The management service fee revenues related to the Threatened
Practices were $1.0 million and $1.7 million for the six months ending June 30,
1999 and the twelve months ending December 31, 1998, respectively. The
management service fee revenues related to the practices terminated through
August 23, 1999 were $454,000 and $1.9 million for the six months ending June
30, 1999 and the twelve months ending December 31, 1998, respectively. In
addition, the Company is in the process of negotiating the termination of three
additional service agreements with Affiliated Practices with management service
fee revenues of approximately $638,000 and $670,000 for the six months ending
June 30, 1999 and the twelve months ending December 31, 1998, respectively.

11. RECENT EVENTS, CONTINUED
The assignment agreement discussed above provides for the Company to issue
181,818 shares of Common Stock to one of the Threatened Practices in return for
an assignable right of ownership in the practice. The Company intends to
identify a new orthodontist to whom it will sell this ownership interest. The
management service fee revenues associated with this practice were $1.2 million
and $2.4 million for the six months ending June 30, 1999 and the twelve months
ending December 31, 1998, respectively.
On April 27,1999, the Company signed a non-binding letter of intent with an
investor group (the "Investor Group") in connection with the consideration of a
potential investment (the "Proposed Transaction") in the Company. The period of
exclusivity related to this letter of intent has expired, however, the Company
continues to negotiate the Proposed Transaction with the Investor Group. The
investment is expected to be in the form of a private placement of $20 million
of convertible preferred shares, convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares
of the Company's Class A Common Stock. The Company anticipates the net proceeds
would be used to repay a substantial portion of the Chase Credit Facility. The
Proposed Transaction remains subject to further negotiation of applicable terms
and conditions including price, the negotiation of definitive documents, the
satisfactory completion of due diligence, the receipt of any necessary
regulatory approvals and third-party consents, and other customary closing
conditions.

OVERVIEW
Apple provides practice management services (which exclude the management and
delivery of orthodontic services) to orthodontic practices in the United States
and Canada. As of June 30, 1999, the Company had service agreements with 60
practices representing 84 orthodontists in 114 offices as compared to 66
practices representing 90 orthodontists in 121 offices as of June 30, 1998.
Since the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company has attempted to raise additional
capital to fund its expansion strategy. This effort has been unsuccessful to
date. Consequently, the Company has suspended its strategy of expansion through
acquisitions in order to devote its limited resources to the integration of
existing Affiliated Practices. Another element of the Company's expansion
strategy has been the development of new offices within selected markets served
by the existing Affiliated Practices. The Company believes that the new offices
will increase the geographic area served by the existing Affiliated Practices,
thereby increasing the potential market and leveraging the advertising budget.
The Company is currently limited in the development of new offices due to
funding constraints. The Company plans to reinitiate all elements of its
expansion strategy dependent upon the recovery of the market value of the
Company's Common Stock and the Company's ability to obtain outside financing (as
discussed in FINANCING ACTIVITIES below.) The Company is continuing its strategy
to implement a comprehensive practice operating approach designed to drive
internal growth of the Affiliated Practices.
Through its service agreements, the Company provides a full complement of
practice management services to Affiliated Practices in return for management
service fees. The management service fees earned by the Company are in
accordance with three general types of Service agreements -- the standard form
of service agreement (the "Standard Contract"), the alternative form of service
agreement (the "Alternative Contract") and a service agreement based upon a flat
fee (the "Flat Fee Contract"). The Standard Contract calls for a calculation of
the monthly service fee based on the total patient revenues earned by the
Affiliated Practices, which is defined by the agreement to represent 24% of the
total contract value in the initial month of a patient's treatment with the
remainder of the contract balance earned evenly over the balance of the contract
term. From total patient revenues, the practices retain a percentage of the
Affiliated Practices' cash collections.
The Alternative Contract is used in certain jurisdictions where use of the
Standard Contract is not permitted. It is a cost-plus fee arrangement, whereby
the service fee includes the reimbursement of defined expenses incurred by Apple
in the course of providing services to the Affiliated Practice plus a percentage
of revenues.
The Flat Fee Contract is based on a flat fee subject to adjustment on an annual
basis. It is used when local jurisdictions do not allow use of the Standard
Contract or Alternative Contract.
The Company believes the fees generated by each of these formulas reflect the
fair market value of the services provided and are comparable to the fees earned
by other practice management service companies in the respective jurisdictions
where these arrangements exist.
The expenses incurred by the Company in fulfilling its obligations under the
service agreements are generally of the same nature as the operating costs and
expenses that would have otherwise been incurred by the Affiliated Practices,
including salaries, wages and benefits of practice personnel (excluding
orthodontists and, in some cases, orthodontic assistants and other professional
personnel), orthodontic supplies and office supplies used in administering their
clinic practices, the office (general and administrative) expenses of the
practices and depreciation and amortization of assets acquired from the founding
Affiliated Practices. In addition to the operating costs and expenses discussed
above, the Company incurs personnel and administrative expenses in connection
with establishing and maintaining a corporate office, which provides management,
administrative, marketing and business development services.
The Company conducted no significant operations before its Initial Public
Offering (the "IPO") in May 1997 when the Company acquired the tangible and
intangible assets and liabilities of, and entered into service agreements with,
31 Founding
-11-
<PAGE>
Affiliated Practices. The acquisition of the assets and assumption
of certain liabilities for all of the Founding Affiliated Practices was
accounted for by the Company at the transferors' historical cost basis, with the
shares of Common Stock issued in those affiliations being valued at the
historical cost of the nonmonetary assets acquired net of liabilities assumed in
accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 48. SAB 48 is not
applicable to affiliations affected by the Company after the IPO. The subsequent
affiliations resulted in substantial intangible assets being recorded.
Amortization of these intangible assets was being recognized over a period of 20
to 40 years to match the term of the related Service Agreement. Effective April
1, 1998, the Company changed its estimate of the remaining useful life of its
intangible assets to a maximum of 25 years in light of trends in the practice
management industry.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE INTERIM PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND
1998(UNAUDITED)
MANAGEMENT SERVICE FEE REVENUES
The Company generated management service fee revenues of $12.6 million and $24.8
million for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999, as compared
with $11.8 million and $23 million for the three and six-month periods ended
June 30, 1998. The increases of approximately $800,000 and $1.8 million were due
to higher cash collections and a greater number of orthodontists at the
Affiliated Practices.
COSTS AND EXPENSES
The Company incurred costs and expenses of $11.9 million and $23.0 million
(94.8% and 93.1%, respectively, of management service fee revenues) for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999, as compared with $13.9
million and $23.1 million (117.8% and 100.4%, respectively, of management
service fee revenues) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30,
1998. Costs and expenses for the 1998 periods also included a $3.7 million
special charge which reflected severance costs associated with a series of
management changes, costs of terminated transaction negotiations and certain
other items. Exclusive of the $3.7 million charge, costs and expenses were $10.2
million and $19.4 million (86.1% and 84.1% of management service fee revenues)
for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively.
The increase in costs and expenses, excluding the $3.7 million charge, for the
six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to the six month period ended June
30, 1998 was primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits, general and
administrative, depreciation and amortization, and rent. The $1.8 million
increase in salaries and benefits expense was related primarily to: (i)
suspension of the business development program, and (ii) a higher number of
employees related to fifteen new orthodontist affiliations. In prior periods,
business development costs directly related to an affiliation were recorded on
the balance sheet and amortized as acquisition costs. The $900,000 increase in
general and administrative expense was the result of (i) an increase in
professional fees related to regulatory issues in Canada (as discussed in Note
12 of the 1998 Form 10-K) and the costs of additional audit, legal and
consulting fees related to the Company's pursuit of certain strategic
alternatives, and (ii) an increase in training expense, administrative services
and office supplies related to a greater number of Affiliated Practices. The
$419,000 increase in depreciation and amortization expense was the result of (i)
the change of the Company's estimate of the remaining useful life of its
intangible assets from 40 years to 25 years, and (ii) the additional
orthodontist affiliations in the second quarter of 1998. The $536,000 increase
in rent expense was primarily the result of a greater number of Affiliated
Practices.
OPERATING INCOME (LOSS)
The Company generated operating income of $658,000 and $1.7 million (5.2% and
6.9% of management service fee revenues) for the three and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1999, as compared with operating losses of $2.1 million and
$83,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998. Exclusive of
the $3.7 million special charge discussed in COSTS AND EXPENSES above, the
Company generated operating income of $1.6 million and $3.7 million (13.8% and
15.9% of management service fee revenues) for the three and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1998.
INTEREST EXPENSE, NET
Interest expense is summarized as follows (in thousands):

===== ===== ===== =====
Gross interest increased $372,000 and $700,000 for the three and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the three and six-month period ended
June 30, 1998. The increase in gross interest was due to higher average debt
levels.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income was $114,000 and $256,000 for the three and six-month period
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to $99,000 and $187,000 for the three and
six-month period ended June 30, 1998, an increase of 15.2% and 36.9%,
respectively, for such periods. These increases reflect additions to notes
receivable from certain of the Affiliated Practices to fund new office
construction and working capital needs.
INCOME TAX PROVISION (BENEFIT)
The Company's year to date operations in 1999 resulted in an income tax
provision (benefit) of $95,000 and $398,000 for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1999, as compared to ($788,000) and $12,000 for the three
months and six months periods ended June 30, 1998. The Company's effective tax
rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 was 38.5% compared to 37.9%
for the corresponding period in fiscal 1998.
NET INCOME (LOSS)
As a result of the foregoing factors, net income increased $1.4 million and
$618,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999, as compared to
the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998. Net income as a percentage
of management service fee revenues was 1.1% and 2.6% for the three and six-month
period ended June 30, 1999. Exclusive of the $3.7 million special charge
discussed in COSTS AND EXPENSES above, the Company generated net income of $1.0
million and $2.3 million (8.8% and 10% of management service fee revenues) for
the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998.
YEAR 2000 IMPACT ON INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE
The Company is in the process of upgrading the practice management systems at
its Affiliated Practices (the "Affiliated Practice Systems"). The purpose of
this upgrade includes enhancement of the diagnostic, imaging, scheduling and
financial features of the Affiliated Practice Systems. The Company has also
conducted an evaluation of its information technology infrastructure, including
information technology systems in the Company's corporate office (the "Corporate
Systems") and the Affiliated Practice Systems, to analyze the impact of the
technical problems anticipated for the year 2000 (the "Year 2000 Issue").
Following its evaluation, the Company determined that substantially all its
Corporate Systems would be unaffected by such problems. Certain of the
Affiliated Practice Systems, however, would be affected by the Year 2000 Issue.
The Company believes that its upgrade of the Affiliated Practice Systems will
adequately address the Year 2000 Issue and that this upgrade process will be
completed (with respect to the Year 2000 Issue) during the fourth quarter of
1999. During the execution of this process, the Company will continue to incur
internal staff costs as well as consulting and other expenses related to the
upgrade. The expenses of this upgrade are not expected to have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
The Company has funded its operations to date primarily through cash flow from
operations, the Chase Credit Facility and proceeds from the sale of its common
stock. As a result of the special charge recorded in the fourth quarter of 1998,
the
-13-
<PAGE>
Company was no longer in compliance with certain of the covenants of the $25
million Chase Credit Facility. On April 14, 1999, the Company amended the Chase
Credit Facility with respect to certain of the covenants. The Chase Credit
Facility, as amended, matures in May 2001 and provides the lenders a security
interest in substantially all the Company's assets. Availability under this
facility is limited by the level of the Company's cash flow and liquidity. At
the Company's option, interest is payable at either a prime rate or LIBOR in
each case plus a margin which is calculated based upon the Company's ratio of
indebtedness to cash flow. The Company is required to maintain certain financial
covenants regarding net worth, coverage ratios and additional indebtedness. As
of June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the Chase
Credit Facility, as amended, and had $24 million outstanding and $875,000
available under this facility.
On April 27,1999, the Company signed a non-binding letter of intent with the
Investor Group in connection with the consideration of a potential investment in
the Company. The period of exclusivity related to this letter of intent has
expired, however, the Company continues to negotiate the Proposed Transaction
with the Investor Group. The Company anticipates that the net proceeds of the
potential investment would be used to repay a substantial portion of the Chase
Credit Facility. The Proposed Transaction remains subject to further negotiation
of applicable terms and conditions including price, the negotiation of
definitive documents, the satisfactory completion of due diligence, the receipt
of any necessary regulatory approvals and third-party consents, and other
customary closing conditions.
In order to increase its liquidity, the Company has developed the following
strategies: (i) suspension of its new practice affiliation program, (ii)
substantial curtailment of its new office development program, (iii)
implementation of tighter credit policies with its Affiliated Practices, (iv)
consideration of terminating the service agreements of selected under-performing
Affiliated Practices, (v) reducing costs in the Company's corporate office, (vi)
raising additional capital and (vii) the consideration of strategic alternatives
which could include, but are not limited to, a sale of the Company or a business
combination with another physician practice management company or financial
sponsor.
There can be no assurance that the Company's strategies will be achieved. In
addition, the Company's capital expenditure and other liquidity needs are
dependent upon access to additional capital. Any limitation on the Company's
ability to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. As a
result of the above factors, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do
not reflect any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of
recorded assets or other adjustments which might be required should the Company
be unable to continue as a going concern.
Total long-term debt increased from $23.7 million at December 31, 1998, to $24.3
million at June 30, 1999. The increase is attributable to borrowings for the
purchase of property and equipment and general working capital needs. The
Company's weighted average cost of indebtedness was 7.41% for the six-months
ended June 30, 1999.
WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company's strategy in managing working capital is to maintain sufficient
availability under the Chase Facility to finance short-term capital needs in
excess of internally generated funds and minimize excess cash on its balance
sheet.
The restricted cash balance of $2.1 million at December 31, 1998, consisted
primarily of borrowings under the Chase Facility which were placed into escrow
pending the resolution of certain post-closing contingencies related to a new
affiliate orthodontist transaction closed during the third quarter of 1997. In
January 1999 these post-closing contingencies resulted in payment of the $2.1
million to the sellers.
The Company's total receivable from orthodontic practices (current and
non-current) increased $2.1 million from December 31, 1998 to June 30, 1999.
This increase resulted from a number of factors, including (i) service fee
receivables related to unbilled patient receivables, (ii) the portion of service
fee receivables from the Company's Affiliated Practices in Canada which are
payable in future periods, (iii) notes receivable related to the Affiliated
Practices' share of the cost of new office development projects, (iv) notes
receivable from the Affiliated Practices for general working capital purposes,
and (v) uncollected service fees. Based on the nature of the various types of
receivables, the various types of collateral held by the Company and the
Company's strategic operating programs to grow the patient revenue of the
Affiliated Practices, the Company believes that its net receivables from
orthodontic practices are collectible.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
The Company made capital expenditures for the Affiliated Practices during the
six months ended June 30, 1999, of approximately $2.0 million to fund, among
other things, the development of satellite offices. The Service Agreements
provide for advances by the Company to the Affiliated Practices for working
capital requirements (including any deficits in
-14-
<PAGE>
cash flows of Affiliated Practices resulting from, among other things,
development of satellite offices) and other purposes. Such loans bear interest
at prime plus one percent and are repayable over varying periods of time not to
exceed five years. Total notes receivable from Affiliated Practices were $3.5
million at June 30, 1999.
The Company's expansion strategy requires substantial capital resources. Capital
is needed for future affiliations and the effective integration, operation and
expansion of the existing and future Affiliated Practices. In addition, the
Affiliated Practices may, from time to time, require capital for renovation and
expansion and for the addition of equipment and technology. The extent to which
the Company is able or willing to use shares of Common Stock to enter into
future affiliations, or provide future financing, will depend on the market
value of the Common Stock and, in the case of affiliations, the willingness of
owners of potential Affiliated Practices to accept Common Stock as full or
partial payment of consideration for affiliations. If the Company's strategies
to increase liquidity (see FINANCING ACTIVITIES above) are not successful,
outside capital would be required to fund all or a portion of these activities.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional
funds when needed on satisfactory terms or at all. The availability of capital
from outside financing sources will depend upon prevailing market conditions,
interest rates and the then existing financial condition of the Company. Any
limitation on the Company's ability to obtain additional financing could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
AFFORDABLE PAYMENT PLANS
A part of the Company's business strategy is to encourage Affiliated Practices
to offer more affordable payment plans to patients. The Company does not expect
the affordable payment plans, or any potential increase in bad debt expense
resulting from these plans, to have any significant negative impact on the
working capital or liquidity of the Affiliated Practices. Existing Affiliated
Practices using such payment plans have experienced an initial decrease in
working capital; however, the Company believes that the decrease in working
capital generally will be offset by an increase in the number of patients
receiving orthodontic treatment because of the combined effect of advertising,
offering more affordable payment plans and the use of the Company's
practice-building program. The Company believes the Affiliated Practices have
the financial wherewithal to sustain any negative impact that may result from
these payment plans. Therefore, Apple does not anticipate that the offering of
affordable payment plans by the Affiliated Practices will impair the Company's
ability to collect management service revenues from the Affiliated Practices.
However, the Company's ability to encourage the Affiliated Practices to adopt,
or maintain, an affordable payment plan may be limited due to funding
constraints. To date, the Company has funded its operations primarily through
cash flow from operations, the Chase Credit Facility and proceeds from the sale
of its common stock. If the Company's strategies to increase liquidity (see
FINANCING ACTIVITIES above) are not successful, outside capital would be
required to fund all or a portion of the Company's activities. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds when needed
on satisfactory terms or at all.
PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On February 11, 1999, the Company filed a complaint in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Texas against David V. Young,
D.D.S., M.D.S., and David V. Young, D.D.S., M.D.S., L.C. (collectively, the
"Young Parties") alleging, among other things, breach by the Young Parties of
the Services Agreement dated December 1, 1997 among the Young Parties and the
Company (the "Young Services Agreement"), tortious interference by the Young
Parties of the relationships of the Company with its employees resident in the
State of Utah and fraud by the Young Parties in connection with the repayment by
the Company of certain debts of Dr. Young. In August 1999, the parties entered
into a settlement agreement pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the
complaint was dismissed with prejudice and all claims of the parties were
released, (ii) the Company conveyed to the Young Parties all of the assets it
owned associated with the orthodontic
-15-
<PAGE>
practice supervised by Dr. Young in exchange for consideration equal to the fair
market value of those assets and (iii) the Young Services Agreement was
terminated.
On April 7, 1999, J. Darwin King, D.D.S., M.D.S. ("King") filed a motion for
judgment (the "Motion") in the Circuit Court of the County of Henrico, Virginia
against the Company. On July 26, 1999, the parties settled this case pursuant to
which, among other things, (i) the Motion was dismissed and all claims of the
parties were released, (ii) the Company conveyed to Dr. King all of the assets
it owned associated with the orthodontic practice supervised by him in exchange
for consideration equal to the fair market value of those assets and (iii) the
services agreement to which Dr. King and Apple were parties was terminated.
On May 18, 1999, Stewart L. Jeffries, D.M.D., William A. Spencer, D.M.D., the
respective professional services corporations wholly owned by each of them and a
professional limited liability company jointly owned by them (the "Kentucky
Parties") filed a complaint for damages and declaratory relief (the "Complaint")
in the Circuit Court of the County of Jefferson, Kentucky against the Company
and John G. Vondrak alleging, among other things, breaches of the services
agreements entered into by the Kentucky Parties and the Company. The Complaint
seeks unquantified damages and a declaratory judgment that the services
agreements to which the Kentucky Parties are a party have been terminated. The
Company intends to vigorously defend the claims made by the Kentucky Parties,
which the Company believes are without merit, and to relocate the venue of the
litigation to Texas (as is called for in the services agreements). The lawsuit
is still pending, and the Company cannot predict whether it will succeed, or if
not successful, what effect this may have on the Company.
The Company is not currently a party to any material claims, suits or complaints
relating to services and products provided by the Company or the existing
Affiliated Practices, except for those previously reported, although there can
be no assurance that such claims will not be asserted against the Company in the
future. The Company is subject to certain pending claims as a result of
successor liability in connection with its affiliations with existing Affiliated
Practices; however, the Company believes that the ultimate resolution of those
claims will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or
operating results of the Company.

None, except for such mentioned above in Note 6 of the financial statements.
