HUDSTON RESPIRATORY CARE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2000
1. Financial Statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements
--------------------
included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, and include
all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position at June 30, 2000, and the results of
operations and cash flows for the three and six month periods ended June 25,
1999 and June 30, 2000 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. Although the Company believes that the disclosures in
such financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading, the accompanying unaudited condensed, consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1999 audited
financial statements and the notes thereto included in its Form 10-K filed with
the SEC. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for a
full year.
2. Acquisitions. During 1999, the Company completed certain business
------------
acquisitions, the most significant of which was the acquisition of Louis Gibeck
AB ("LGAB"). The Company is evaluating certain estimates made in connection
with the purchase price allocations, which may change in the near term.
Had the acquisition of LGAB occurred at the beginning of the prior fiscal
year, the unaudited pro forma net sales and net income would be as follows

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of Hudson Respiratory Care Inc.'s (the "Company"
or "Hudson RCI") consolidated historical results of operations and financial
condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements of the Company and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form
10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contains certain "forward-looking statements" as defined
in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements
relating to future events and financial performance are forward-looking
statements involving risks and uncertainties that are detailed from time to time
in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
General
The Company has increased its net sales and improved its position within
the disposable health care products market in recent years by increasing its
respiratory care product offering, introducing disposable products for the
anesthesia health care market, expanding its presence in international markets
and establishing a position in the growing alternate site market.
The Company's results of operations may fluctuate significantly from
quarter to quarter as a result of a number of factors, including, among others,
the buying patterns of the Company's distributors, group purchasing
organizations ("GPOs") and other purchasers of the Company's products, forecasts
regarding the severity of the annual cold and flu season, announcements of new
product introductions by the Company or its competitors, changes in the
Company's pricing of its products and the prices offered by the Company's
competitors, rate of overhead absorption due to variability in production levels
and variability in the number of shipping days in a given quarter.
Recent Developments
On November 8, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets of Tyco Healthcare
Group LP ("Tyco"), including Tyco's incentive breathing exerciser and pulmonary
function monitor product lines, for a cash purchase price of approximately $23.8
million. The Tyco acquisition was funded principally with proceeds from the
Company's $60.0 million revolving line of credit.
On October 8, 1999, the Company acquired certain assets of Medimex, a
German distribution company that had previously distributed products for both
the Company and Louis Gibeck AB ("LGAB"), for a cash purchase price of $2.2
million. The assets were acquired through the Company's wholly-owned, non-
guarantor subsidiary, HRCDAC Inc., and was funded with cash on hand.
On July 22, 1999, the Company, through its indirect, wholly-owned
subsidiary Steamer Holding AB, a company organized under the laws of Sweden
("Steamer"), acquired a majority of the outstanding capital stock of LGAB, a
company organized under the laws of Sweden. Pursuant to a series of private
purchases and a tender offer consummated pursuant to Swedish law, Steamer
acquired 604,000 shares of Class A stock and 2,452,838 shares of Class B stock
representing approximately 82.0% of the capital and 62.8% of the voting power of
LGAB at a price of 115 Swedish krona (approximately $13.60 at the July 22
exchange rate) per share of Class A stock and Class B stock for an aggregate
cash purchase price of approximately $45.5 million. In addition, on August 4,
1999, Steamer acquired an additional 483,750 shares of Class A stock of LGAB
from River Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation and the parent of Steamer and
the Company ("Holding"), which shares Holding acquired in a private transaction
in exchange for 525,042 shares of common stock of Holding ("Holding Common
Stock"). The exchange ratio for the Class A stock was the same as the effective
price per share of the shares acquired in the tender offer. After giving effect
to this exchange and the conversion of the Series A stock acquired by Steamer in
the tender offer into Series B stock, Steamer holds approximately 99.0% of the
capital and 100.0% of the voting power of LGAB. The Company intends that
Steamer, through continuing purchases and a statutory freezeout and appraisal
procedure under Swedish law, will acquire the remaining outstanding shares of
LGAB as soon as practicable.

The cash for the purchase price and certain related transaction costs was
funded with (i) $22.0 million in gross proceeds from the sale of Holding Common
Stock to the majority stockholder of Holding, (ii) a $22.0 million loan from the
majority stockholder of Holding to Steamer's parent, HRC Holding Inc., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and (iii) the
funding of 50 million Swedish krona (approximately $5.9 million) pursuant to the
terms of a loan facility agreement between Steamer and Svenska Handelsbanken AB.
Founded in 1954, LGAB develops, manufactures and markets medical device
products which humidify, heat and filter a patient's breathing gases during
anesthesia and intensive care. LGAB is a market leader in the area of "heat
moisture exchange" ("HME") products, with approximately 25% share of the world
market. Following completion of the acquisition, the Company intends to
continue LGAB's operations in substantially the same manner as conducted prior
to the acquisition.
In September 1998, the Company acquired certain assets of Gibeck, Inc., a
subsidiary of LGAB, for approximately $3.35 million. Prior to the transaction,
Gibeck, Inc. was engaged primarily in the business of manufacturing, marketing
and selling disposable anesthesia supplies. In conjunction with that
transaction, the Company became the exclusive North American distributor of
LGAB's HME product line. In fiscal year 1997, Gibeck, Inc. reported net sales
of approximately $12.3 million.
The Company established a sales office located in Germany in the second
quarter of 1999. It is anticipated that this operation will better equip the
Company to more aggressively pursue sales in the German market. The German
operation had a negative impact on the Company's results of approximately $0.8
million in the first six months of 2000. It is anticipated that the Company's
earnings will be positively impacted by the German operation for the remainder
of fiscal 2000 and beyond.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended June 25, 1999
Net sales, reported net of accrued rebates, were $31.8 million in the second
quarter of 2000 as compared to $27.2 million in the second quarter of 1999, an
increase of $4.5 million or 16.6%. Sales by the acquired Louis Gibeck AB
(renamed Hudson RCI AB) were approximately $2.8 million, $2.4 million related to
the acquired Tyco product line and $0.4 million related to the acquired Medimex
product line. For the base Hudson product line, domestic hospital sales
decreased by $0.6 million, alternate site sales increased by $0.3 million,
Canadian sales declined by $0.2 million, international sales increased by $0.4
million and OEM sales increased by $0.1 million. Although demand was strong in
all sectors of the business, sales were negatively impacted due to shipping
difficulties associated with the implementation of a new computer system. As a
result, backlog was $4.0 million at June 30, 2000 as compared to $1.1 million at
June 30, 1999.
The Company's gross profit for the second quarter of 2000 was $17.0 million,
an increase of $5.8 million or 51.8% over the second quarter of 1999. As a
percentage of sales, the gross profit was 53.4% and 41.0% for the second quarter
of 2000 and 1999, respectively. The higher margin was primarily due to higher-
margin sales of the Hudson RCI AB product as well as the Tyco products. In
addition, higher production levels have resulted in lower per unit costs.
However, due to the shipping difficulties associated with the computer system
implementation, production levels significantly exceeded sales levels and
inventory levels have increased.
Selling expenses were $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2000, a $1.2
million increase over the second quarter of 1999. This increase was due
primarily to $0.6 million of costs related to the acquired Hudson RCI AB and
$0.3 million of costs associated with the start-up of the German sales office.
Additionally, sales representatives were added in the alternate site market to
service the growing demand.
Distribution expenses were $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2000, a
$1.3 million increase over the second quarter of 1999. This increase was
primarily driven by the establishment of an Atlanta distribution facility in the
third quarter of 1999, the addition of a second shift and overtime at all
warehouses required to meet customer demand.
General and administrative expenses were $4.9 million in the second quarter
of 2000, an increase of $2.0 million or 66.8% over the second quarter of 1999.
This increase was primarily the result of additional expenses associated with
the acquired Hudson RCI AB business, the German start-up operation, training
costs associated with the computer system implementation and increased staffing
levels.
Amortization of goodwill was $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2000, as
compared to $0.1 million in the second quarter of 1999. This increase was
primarily due to the Tyco and Hudson RCI AB acquisitions in the second half of
1999.
Research & development costs were $0.6 million in the second quarter of
2000, as compared to $0.4 million in the second quarter of 1999. This increase
was primarily due to expenses of the acquired Hudson RCI AB.
13
<PAGE>
Interest expense and other was $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2000,
as compared to $4.0 million in the second quarter of 1999. This increase
reflects increased borrowings as a result of the Hudson RCI and Tyco
acquisitions as well as increased borrowings in the working capital revolving
facility and higher interest rates.
The Company provides for state and federal income taxes as a C corporation,
although actual tax payments are expected to be substantially less than provided
amounts due to the increase in tax basis of assets provided by the Section
338(h)(10) election made in conjunction with the April 1998 recapitalization.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Six Months Ended June 25, 1999
Net sales, reported net of accrued rebates, were $72.6 million in the first
half of 2000 as compared to $54.4 million in the first half of 1999, an increase
of $18.2 million or 33.4%. Sales by the acquired Louis Gibeck AB (renamed
Hudson RCI AB) were approximately $7.8 million, $6.2 million related to the
acquired Tyco product line and $0.9 million related to the acquired Medimex
product line. For the base Hudson product line, domestic hospital sales
increased by $1.4 million, alternate site sales increased by $1.3 million,
Canadian sales declined by $0.3 million and international sales increased by
$0.9 million. Although demand was strong in all sectors of the business, sales
were negatively impacted by shipping difficulties associated with the
implementation of a new computer system. As a result, backlog was $4.0 million
at June 30, 2000 as compared to $1.1 million at June 30, 1999.
The Company's gross profit for the first half of 2000 was $35.2 million, an
increase of $12.7 million or 56.3% over the first half of 1999. As a percentage
of sales, the gross profit was 48.6% and 41.9% for the first half of 2000 and
1999, respectively. The improved margin was primarily due to higher-margin
sales of the Hudson RCI AB product as well as the acquired Tyco products. In
addition, higher production levels have resulted in lower per unit costs.
However, due to the shipping difficulties associated with the computer system
implementation, production levels significantly exceeded sales levels, and
inventory levels have increased.
Selling expenses were $7.7 million for the first half of 2000, a $2.6
million increase over the first half of 1999. This increase was due primarily to
$1.3 million of costs related to the acquired Hudson RCI AB and $0.8 million of
costs associated to the start-up German operation. Additionally, sales
representatives were added in the Alternate Site market to service the growing
demand.
Distribution expenses were $3.5 million for the first half of 2000, a $1.5
million increase over the first half of 1999. This increase was primarily
driven by the establishment of an Atlanta distribution facility in the third
quarter of 1999, the addition of a second shift and overtime at all warehouses
required to meet customer demand.
General and administrative expenses were $8.3 million in the first half of
2000, an increase of $2.3 million or 37.7% over the first half of 1999. This
increase was primarily the result of additional expenses associated with the
acquired Hudson RCI AB business, the German start-up operation, training costs
associated with the computer system implementation and increased staffing
levels.
Amortization of goodwill was $1.6 million for the first half of 2000, as
compared to $0.1 million in the first half of 1999. This increase was primarily
due to the Tyco and Hudson RCI AB acquisitions in the second half of 1999.
Research & development costs were $1.2 million in the first half of 2000, as
compared to $0.6 million in the first half of 1999. This increase was primarily
due to expenses of the acquired Hudson RCI AB.
Interest expenses and other was $10.5 million in the first half of 2000, as
compared to $7.8 million in the first half of 1999. This increase reflects
increased borrowings as a result of the Hudson RCI and Tyco acquisitions as well
as increased borrowings in the working capital revolving facility and higher
interest rates.
The Company provides for state and federal income taxes as a C corporation,
although actual tax payments are expected to be substantially less than provided
amounts due to the increase in tax basis of assets provided by the Section
338(h)(10) election made in conjunction with the April 1998 recapitalization.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations and
borrowings under its working capital bank facility. Cash provided by operations
totaled $4.6 million and $1.1 million in the first six months of 1999 and 2000,
respectively. The decrease from the first six months of 1999 to the first six
months of 2000 is primarily attributable to higher working capital levels. The
Company had operating working capital, excluding cash and short-term debt, of
$38.4 million and $44.0 million as of December 31, 1999 and June 30, 2000,
respectively. Inventories were $24.0 million and $30.9 million as of December
31, 1999 and June 30, 2000, respectively. In order to meet the needs of its
customers, the Company must maintain inventories sufficient to permit same-day
or next-day filling of most orders. Such inventories are higher than those that
would be required for delayed filling of orders, thus adversely impacting
liquidity. Over time, the Company expects its level of inventories to increase
as the Company's sales in the international market increase. Accounts
receivable, net of allowances, were $30.4 million and $35.9 million at December
31, 1999 and June 30, 2000, respectively. The Company offers 30 day credit terms
to its U.S. hospital distributors. Alternate site and international customers
typically receive 60 to 90 day terms and, as a result, as the Company's
alternate site and international sales have increased, the amount and aging of
its accounts receivable have increased. The Company anticipates that the amount
and aging of its accounts receivable will continue to increase. The Company
established a sales office in Germany in the second quarter of 1999. While this
will have the effect of increasing the Company's investment in inventories,
management believes that it will also result in improved service to
international customers as well as in lower international accounts receivable
than would otherwise be the case because customers will receive products, and
consequently pay for them, more quickly.
During the six months ended June 25, 1999, net cash used in investing
activities was $3.6 million, reflecting purchases of computer software and
manufacturing equipment. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, net cash
used in investing activities was $5.8 million, primarily reflecting purchases of
manufacturing equipment and implementation of a new enterprise resource planning
software program. The Company currently estimates that capital expenditures
will be approximately $8.0 million in each of 2000 and 2001, consisting
primarily of additional and replacement manufacturing equipment and new heater
placements.
During the six months ended June 25, 1999 and June 30, 2000, net cash (used
in) provided by financing activities was $(0.1) million and $2.3 million,
respectively, reflecting principally repayment and borrowings of the Company's
credit facility.
The Company has outstanding $214.0 million of indebtedness, consisting of
$115.0 million of 9-1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "Subordinated
Notes") issued in April 1998, borrowings of $75.5 million under the credit
facility (the "Credit Facility") entered into in April 1998 and $7.5 million in
notes payable to affiliates. In addition, LGAB has $16 million in outstanding
borrowings under its bank facility. The Credit Facility consists of a $40.0
million term loan facility (the "Term Loan Facility") (all of which was funded
in connection with the Company's April 1998 Recapitalization) and a $60.0
million revolving loan facility (the "Revolving Loan Facility"). The
Subordinated Notes bear interest at the rate of 9-1/8%, payable semiannually,
and will require no principal repayments until maturity. The Term Loan Facility
matures on April 7, 2004 and requires principal repayments of between $3.0
million and $11.5 million each year until maturity, commencing on June 30, 1999.
The Revolving Loan Facility matures on April 7, 2004 and bears interest based on
a spread over either a Eurodollar or base rate.
In connection with the LGAB acquisition, the Company borrowed $22.0 million
pursuant to an unsecured promissory note payable to Freeman Spogli. The note
bears interest at 12.0% per annum, matures in August 2006, and requires
semiannual interest payments. As of June 30, 2000, $7.5 million remained
outstanding on the note.
In connection with the LGAB acquisition, the Company assumed debt owed by
LGAB under its bank facility (the "LGAB Facility"), which was refinanced during
1999 and totaled $16 million as of June 30, 2000. The LGAB Facility, which is
denominated in Swedish krona, bears interest at three-month STIBOR (the interest
rate at or about 11:00 a.m. Stockholm time, two banking days before a draw-down
date or the relevant interest period, quoted for deposits in krona) plus 0.75%
to 1.75% (4.365% to 5.365% at June 30, 2000), matures in December 2003, and is
secured by the common stock of LGAB.
In connection with the Company's April 1998 recapitalization, the Company
issued to Holding 300,000 shares of its 11-1/2% Senior PIK Preferred Stock due
2010 with an aggregate liquidation preference of $30.0 million.
15
<PAGE>
Dividends are payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 each
year. Dividends are payable in cash, except on dividend payment dates occurring
on or prior to April 15, 2003, for which the Company has the option to issue
additional shares of preferred stock (including fractional shares) having an
aggregate liquidation preference equal to the amount of such dividends. The
preferred stock ranks junior in right of payment to all obligations of the
Company and its subsidiaries. At the election of the Company, dividends may be
paid in kind until April 15, 2003 and thereafter must be paid in cash.
The Company believes that after giving effect to the 1999 acquisitions and
the incurrence of indebtedness related thereto, based on current levels of
operations and anticipated growth, its cash from operations, together with other
available sources of liquidity, including borrowings available under the
Revolving Loan Facility, will be sufficient over the next twelve months to fund
anticipated capital expenditures and acquisitions and to make required payments
of principal and interest on its debt, including payments due on the
Subordinated Notes and obligations under the Credit Facility. The Company
intends to selectively pursue strategic acquisitions, both domestically and
internationally, to expand its product line, improve its market share positions
and increase cash flows. Financing for such acquisitions is available, subject
to limitations, under the Credit Facility. Any significant acquisition activity
by the Company in excess of such amounts would require additional capital, which
could be provided through capital contributions or debt financing. The Company
has no commitments for such acquisition financing and to the extent financing is
unavailable, acquisitions may be delayed or not completed.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by
SFAS No. 137, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments. The statement requires that every derivative instrument be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its
fair value, and that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized
currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.
Management has not yet determined the impact that adoption of this standard will
have on the Company.
