NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General - OSI Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company")
is a vertically integrated worldwide provider of devices, subsystems and end-
products based on optoelectronic technology. The Company designs and
manufactures optoelectronic devices and value-added subsystems for original
equipment manufacturers in a broad range of applications, including security,
medical diagnostics, telecommunications, gaming, office automation, aerospace,
computer peripherals and industrial automation. In addition, the Company
utilizes its optoelectronic technology and design capabilities to manufacture
security and inspection products that it markets worldwide to end users under
the "Rapiscan" and "Secure" brand names. These products are used to inspect
people, baggage, cargo and other objects for weapons, explosives, drugs and
other contraband.
Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
OSI Systems, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1998, the consolidated
statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
three-month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 have been prepared by the
Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management
all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations
for the periods presented have been included. These consolidated financial
statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the
audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1998 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K as
filed with the Commission on September 28, 1998. The results of operations for
the three months ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999.
Recent Developments - On September 2, 1998, the Company acquired all the
outstanding capital stock of Osteometer MediTech A/S ("Osteometer"), a Danish
manufacturer of densitometers used for scanning osteoporosis, for $7.75 million
in cash. During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company also made
investments in the aggregate amount of approximately $800,000 in two other
businesses.
-6-
<PAGE>
Subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company purchased a
security products business unit from Metorex International Oy of Espoo, Finland
for approximately $6.0 million, $4.5 million of which was paid at the closing
and up to $1.5 million of which may be paid at a later date, based on future
sales.
Intangible And Other Assets, Net - The Company paid $7.75 million for the
acquisition of Osteometer, a Danish company, in September 1998. Costs in excess
of net tangible assets acquired of $5.4 million have been included in Intangible
and Other Assets on the accompanying balance sheet pending completion of a
valuation study. The Company believes that a significant portion of this amount
relates to in-process research and development, which will be charged to expense
after the valuation has been completed, currently expected to be in the second
quarter.
Foreign Exchange Instruments - The Company's use of derivatives is limited to
the purchase of foreign exchange contracts in order to minimize foreign exchange
transaction gains and losses. The Company purchases forward contracts to hedge
commitments to acquire inventory for sale and does not use the contracts for
trading purposes. Realized gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in
the same period as the hedged transactions. The forward exchange contracts
related to inventory purchases are recognized as adjustments to the bases of the
underlying assets. As of September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998 there was
approximately $988,000 and $973,000, respectively, in outstanding foreign
exchange contracts. At September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998, there were no
carrying amounts related to foreign currency contracts on the consolidated
balance sheets. The fair values of foreign exchange contracts are estimated by
obtaining quotes from brokers. At September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998, the
carrying amount and fair value of these contracts were not material to the
consolidated financial statements.
Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is
determined on the first-in, first-out method.
Inventory at September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998 consisted of the following (in
thousands):

Comprehensive Income - In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 130 "Reporting for
Comprehensive Income" (SFAS No. 130), which the Company adopted in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and
displaying comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general
purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income is computed as follows (in

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
STATEMENTS IN THIS REPORT THAT ARE FORWARD-LOOKING ARE BASED ON CURRENT
EXPECTATIONS, AND ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY. FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS INVOLVE NUMEROUS RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL
RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE POSSIBILITIES
THAT THE DEMAND FOR THE COMPANY'S PRODUCTS MAY DECLINE AS A RESULT OF POSSIBLE
CHANGES IN GENERAL AND INDUSTRY SPECIFIC ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND THE EFFECTS OF
COMPETITIVE PRICING AND SUCH OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES AS ARE DESCRIBED IN
THIS REPORT ON FORM 10-Q AND OTHER DOCUMENTS PREVIOUSLY FILED OR HEREAFTER FILED
BY THE COMPANY FROM TIME TO TIME WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues. Revenues consist of sales of optoelectronic devices and subsystems and
security and inspection products. Revenues are recorded net of all inter-company
eliminations. Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1998 decreased
by $1.6 million, or 6.8%, to $21.4 million from $23.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1997. Revenues for the three months ended September
30, 1998 from security and inspection products were $7.8 million or
approximately 36.4% of the Company revenues, and revenues from sales of
optoelectronic devices and subsystems were $13.6 million or approximately 63.6%
of the Company's revenues. Revenues from sales of optoelectronic devices and
subsystems increased, both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total
company revenues, as a result of an increase in sales to the medical diagnostic
industry. Revenues from sales of security and inspection products decreased
largely because of delayed shipments of certain large cargo scanning machines
under one contract.
Gross Profit. Cost of goods sold consists of material, labor and manufacturing
overhead. Gross profit increased by $104,000, or 1.6%, to $6.4 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1998 from $6.3 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit increased to
30.0% for three months ended September 30, 1998 from 27.5% for the three months
ended September 30, 1997. The increase in gross margin was mainly due to
increased manufacturing efficiencies and product mix.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative
expenses consisted primarily of compensation paid to sales, marketing, and
administrative personnel, professional service fees, and marketing expenses. For
the three months ended September 30, 1998, such expenses increased by $290,000
or 9.4%, to $3.4 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended September
30, 1997. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased to 15.8% for the three
-9-
<PAGE>
months ended September 30, 1998 from 13.5% for the three months ended September
30, 1997. The increase in expenses was due primarily to the inclusion of
Osteometer's selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's
consolidated financial statements commencing September 1998, and an increase in
marketing expenses to penetrate new markets.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses include research
related to new product development and product enhancement expenditures. For the
three months ended September 30, 1998, such expenses increased by $197,000 or
23.8% compared to $1.0 million from $827,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997. As a percentage of revenues, research and development
expenses increased to 4.8% from 3.6%. The increase was due primarily to
acceleration of certain research and development projects and increased efforts
to develop products for cargo scanning and an operator training system known as
Screener Proficiency Evaluation And Reporting System.
Income from Operations. Income from operations for the three months ended
September 30, 1998, decreased by $383,000 or 16.1% to $2.0 million from $2.4
million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of
revenues, income from operations decreased to 9.4% from 10.4% for the reasons
discussed under Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Research and
Development.
Interest Expense. For the three months ended September 30, 1998, the Company
earned net interest income of $167,000 compared to net interest expense of
$411,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The net interest income
was due to short term investments of the remaining proceeds from the initial
public offering of the Company's common stock in October 1997.
Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes decreased to $510,000
for the three months ended September 30, 1998 from $534,000 for the comparable
prior year quarter. As a percentage of income before provision for income taxes,
provision for income taxes decreased in the quarter to 23.5% this year from
27.0% last year. The decrease was a result of increased utilization of research
and development credits and a lower tax rate on certain products shipped by the
Company's wholly owned subsidiary Opto Sensors (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd.
Net Income. For the reasons outlined above, net income for the three months
ended September 30, 1998 increased by 15.2% to $1.7 million compared to $1.4
million for the comparable prior year period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's operations provided net cash of $1.1 million during the three
months ended September 30, 1998. The amount of net cash provided by operations
reflects reductions in accounts receivable and increases in income taxes payable
and other accrued expenses and current liabilities. Net cash provided by
operations was offset in
-10-
<PAGE>
part by increases in inventory, other receivables, prepaid expenses and
reduction in accrued payroll and related expenses, advances from customers and
accrued warranty.
The reduction in accounts receivable is mainly due to the collection of amounts
due under certain large contracts. Net cash used in investing activities was
$12.2 million and $549,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively. In the period ended September 30, 1998, the net cash used in
investing activities reflects primarily cash used in business acquisitions,
purchases of property and equipment, and purchase of marketable securities
available for sale. In the period ended September 30, 1997, the net cash used in
investing activities reflects primarily the purchase of property and equipment.
In the period ended September 30, 1998, $8.7 million was used for the
acquisition of Osteometer and an investment in two businesses as well as
professional fees associated with the acquisition and investments. Of the total
property and equipment purchases, approximately $700,000 was for the purchase of
equipment to manufacture products used in the oil exploration field.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $6.1 million and $3.5 million for
the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, in each case
primarily in the form of net borrowing from bank lines of credit.
The Company anticipates that current cash balances, anticipated cash flows from
operations and current borrowing arrangements will be sufficient to meet its
working capital and capital expenditure needs for the foreseeable future.
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounts of the Company's operations in
Singapore, Malaysia, England, Denmark and Norway are maintained in Singapore
dollars, Malaysian ringgits, U.K. pounds sterling, Danish kroner and Norwegian
kroner, respectively. Foreign currency financial statements are translated into
U.S. dollars at current rates, with the exception of revenues, costs and
expenses, which are translated at average rates during the reporting period.
Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in
income, while those resulting from translation of financial statements are
excluded from income and accumulated as a component of shareholder's equity. Net
transaction gains of approximately $47,000 and $74,000 were included in income
for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Inflation. The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material impact
on its September 30, 1998 results of operations.
Year 2000 Compliance. The Company has a comprehensive Year 2000 project designed
to identify and assess the risks associated with its information systems,
products, operations and infrastructure, suppliers, and customers that are not
Year 2000 compliant, and to develop, implement, and test remediation and
contingency plans to mitigate these risks. The project, comprises four phases:
(1) identification of risks, (2) assessment of risks, (3) development of
remediation and contingency plans, and (4) implementation and testing.
-11-
<PAGE>
The Company's Year 2000 project is currently in the assessment phase and, with
respect to certain information systems and products, is in the remediation
phase. The Company's Year 2000 project is being spearheaded by a special task
force comprised of a senior management team as well as other key personnel. The
task force meets on a regular basis to determine and implement the steps
necessary to insure that the Company becomes fully Year 2000 compliant.
The Company has upgraded its critical database and believes that it is Year 2000
compliant. The financial records of the Company's principal U.S. subsidiaries,
Rapiscan Security Products, (U.S.A.) Inc. and UDT Sensors, Inc. have also been
upgraded and are Year 2000 compliant. The financial records model will be made
uniform throughout the Company on a worldwide basis; the estimated completion
date for this upgrade is on or before June 30, 1999. The Company has completed
an upgrade of the telephone systems, including voice-mail software, for Rapiscan
U.S.A. and UDT Sensors. The cost of these upgrades to date has not been
material. The Enterprise Resource Planning software used by several of the
Company's operating subsidiaries has been certified as Year 2000 compliant.
The Company is in the assessment and remediation phase of determining Year 2000
compliance of its own products, which are dependent on third party suppliers
and vendors for critical parts. The Company expects to complete this assessment
by March 31, 1999 and expects to be able to complete remediation as required by
June 30, 1999. Based on what the Company knows at this time, DOS and Windows 95
are not Year 2000 compliant; therefore, the Company's products which rely on
these products are themselves not Year 2000 compliant. The Company intends to
upgrade this software to Year 2000 compliant versions. The Company's products
which are not presently Year 2000 compliant are not affected in terms of
performance in any material respect; however, archiving of information may be
affected by Year 2000 noncompliance. The Company's exposure is with respect to
its products under warranty which were manufactured prior to the software
upgrade. In such cases, the Company would offer its customers a software upgrade
to a Year 2000 compliant version. Until the assessment phase is completed, the
Company is not in a position to know if the costs of upgrading the software used
in the manufacture of its products or offering its customers such upgrading will
be material.
The Company expects to have completed by March 31, 1999 a full assessment of all
hardware, operating systems and software applications in use on a worldwide
basis. Some upgrading is expected to be required, including upgrading to a
uniform operating system on a Company-wide basis. The costs of such assessment
and upgrading are not expected to be material. Required upgrading is expected to
be completed on or before June 30, 1999. In addition, the Company is in the
process of obtaining Year 2000 compliance statements from the manufacturers of
the Company's hardware and software products.
The Company believes that its greatest potential risks are associated with (i)
its information systems and systems embedded in its operations and
infrastructure; and (ii) its reliance on Year 2000 compliance by the Company's
vendors and suppliers. The Company is at the beginning stage of assessments for
its operations and infrastructure, and cannot predict
-12-
<PAGE>
whether significant problems will be identified. The Company is asking its
critical vendors and suppliers to complete a Year 2000 survey to assess the
status of their compliance in order to assess the effect it could have on the
Company. The Company expects that all such surveys will be distributed to
vendors by December 31, 1998. The Company has not yet determined the full extent
of contingency planning that may be required. Based on the status of the
assessments made and remediation plans developed to date, the Company is not in
a position to state the total cost of remediation of all Year 2000 issues. Costs
identified to date have not been material. The Company does not currently expect
the total costs to be material, and it expects to be able to fund the total
costs through operating cash flows. However, the Company has not yet completed
its assessments, developed remediation for all problems, developed any
contingency plans, or completely implemented or tested any of its remediation
plans.
Based on the Company's current analysis and assessment of the state of its Year
2000 compliance, the Company's most reasonably likely worst case scenario
involves delays in shipping of parts, including critical parts, by certain of
the Company's vendors and suppliers. Such delays could cause the Company to
experience delays in shipping its products. Specific contingency plans will be
formulated after the Company has received compliance surveys back from its
vendors and suppliers but could include, among other things, increasing
inventory of critical parts in late 1999 to insure an adequate supply is on hand
to minimize shipping delays by the Company of its products.
As the Year 2000 project continues, the Company may discover additional Year
2000 problems, may not be able to develop, implement, or test remediation or
contingency plans, or may find that the costs of these activities exceed current
expectations and become material. In many cases, the Company is relying on
assurances from suppliers that new and upgraded information systems and other
products will be Year 2000 compliant. The Company plans to test such third-party
products, but cannot be sure that its tests will be adequate or that, if
problems are identified, they will be addressed in a timely and satisfactory
way. Because the Company uses a variety of information systems and has
additional systems embedded in its operations and infrastructure, the Company
cannot be sure that all of its systems will work together in a Year 2000
compliant fashion. Furthermore, the Company cannot be sure that it will not
suffer business interruptions, either because of its own Year 2000 problems or
those of its customers or suppliers whose Year 2000 problems may make it
difficult or impossible for them to fulfill their commitments to the Company. If
the Company fails to satisfactorily resolve Year 2000 issues related to its
products in a timely manner, it could be exposed to liability to third parties.
The Company is continuing to evaluate Year 2000-related risks and will take such
further corrective actions as may be required.

EXHIBIT 10.22
COOPERATIVE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
97-CRDA-0106
RAPISCAN SECURITY PRODUCTS, INC.
AND
THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION
WILLIAM J. HUGHES TECHNICAL CENTER
This Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRDA), dated
______________________ is entered into by and between Rapiscan Security
Products, Inc. [RAPISCAN], and the United States of America, as represented by
the Federal Aviation Administration William J. Hughes Technical Center [FAA
Technical Center], located at the Atlantic City International Airport, New
Jersey.
A. BACKGROUND
-------------
The development of effective enhanced automated baggage screening systems is a
continuing effort at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center.
The Aviation Security Research & Development Division has been examining the
potential of several technologies and is particularly interested in further
development of the X-ray measurement and analysis techniques currently under
development by Rapiscan. The Rapiscan technology is unique and proprietary in
its particular scanning approach as well as in its image processing ability to
sort out the signatures of numerous objects within a typical piece of luggage
and then to identify to an operator whether a particular object constitutes a
threat (explosive). The technology has been developed to the point where it is
approaching the capability to meet the detection and throughput requirements for
enhanced automated inspection of luggage at an airport.
B. OBJECTIVE AND PLAN
---------------------
The intent of this CRDA is to assist Rapiscan to optimize its prototype enhanced
automated X-ray baggage screening system for use at airports.
C. AGREEMENT
------------
The Federal Technology Transfer Act of 1986, as amended, 15 U.S.C. 371Oa, et
--
seq. permits the Director of the FAA Technical Center to enter into Cooperative
- ----
Research and Development Agreements consistent with that Act, associated
Executive Orders, and agency policies.

APPENDIX A
COOPERATIVE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
FAA TECHNICAL CENTER/RAPISCAN
OBLIGATION OF THE PARTIES
1.0 STATEMENT OF WORK
-----------------
BACKGROUND
The development of effective enhanced automated baggage screening systems is a
continuing effort at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Technical Center.
The Aviation Security Research & Development Division has been examining the
potential of several technologies and is particularly interested in further
development of the X-ray measurement and analysis techniques currently under
development by Rapiscan. The Rapiscan technology is unique and proprietary in
its particular scanning approach as well as in its image processing ability to
sort out the signatures of numerous objects within a typical piece of luggage
and then to identify to an operator whether a particular object constitutes a
threat (explosive). The technology has been developed to the point where it is
approaching the capability to meet the detection and throughput requirements for
enhanced automated inspection of luggage at an airport.
OBJECTIVE AND PLAN
The intent of this CRDA is to assist Rapiscan to optimize its prototype enhanced
automated X-ray baggage screening system for use at airports.
EXPECTED RESULTS
As a result of this agreement, we anticipate that there will be progress toward
developing enhanced automated baggage screening systems that can more
effectively screen carry-on and checked passenger luggage at airports.
CONSTRAINTS
All information concerning system performance generated under this agreement
will be covered by the Classification Guide for FAA Explosives Detection Systems
Information and Data. No classified information shall be generated or received
by Rapiscan unless site and personnel clearances are granted by the Defense
Investigative Service. Participation in testing shall be restricted to those
personnel having the need to know and possessing the appropriate security
clearance. However, participation of Rapiscan personnel is considered
essential. FAA will attempt to conduct the tests in a fashion that will allow
the widest possible participation by Rapiscan personnel and consultants without
comprising classified
16
<PAGE>
information. Rapiscan will supply cleared personnel to participate in the
testing whenever possible.
All explosive materials used during testing shall be handled by trained
personnel. FAA will have the responsibility for providing the explosives test
articles. Storage, handling, and transportation shall be in compliance with
established safety procedures and shall be in compliance with local, state, FAA,
and Federal regulations.
All reports generated resulting from work covered by this CRDA shall be
consistent with both security procedures and non-disclosure agreements and are
releasable only with the approval of FAA and the Rapiscan technical contact.
2.0 OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
--------------------------
2.1 Obligations of the FAA Technical Center
FAA shall provide assistance in several areas of development. These include:
collaboration with FAA scientists, engineers, consultants, and testing
personnel; use of laboratory facilities, including assistance in obtaining test
samples of explosives, detonators, and luggage; and coordination with airports
and Government agencies to facilitate obtaining performance data. FAA will
provide test samples that include typical explosives in quantities used by
terrorists against civil aviation. FAA will supply both clean actual passenger
bags and bags with explosives concealed in a manner consistent with known
terrorist threats. FAA will test for Probability of Detection and False Alarm
rate as a function of weight and type of explosive. The threat objects may be
either bulk or sheet explosives. Additional threat objects may be added to
characterize system performance. FAA will provide to Rapiscan information
consistent with security regulations so that system performance can be
optimized.
2.2 Obligations of Rapiscan:
Under this agreement, Rapiscan shall furnish to the FAA one or more of its
prototype X-ray machines for testing and data collection at the Technical Center
or at appropriate sites, for times and duration that are mutually acceptable.
Rapiscan will provide to FAA information regarding system operation, system
design, and algorithm development. Any information that is company proprietary
shall be so labeled and will be treated accordingly. If testing of the Rapiscan
X-ray system is to be done either at the FAA Technical Center or at Los Angeles
Airport, Rapiscan will make the arrangements and pay for the shipping. At sites
other than the above, the arrangements and cost of shipping will be negotiated
between Rapiscan and FAA.
