SYNCOR INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
1. GENERAL. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. The results of the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. Certain line items in
the prior year's consolidated condensed financial statements have
been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.
2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. On March 31, 2000, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 44,
Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation -
an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 (FIN44). This
interpretation provides guidance for issues that have arisen in
applying APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. FIN 44 applies prospectively to new awards, exchanges
of awards in a business combination, modifications to outstanding
awards, and changes in grantee status that occur on or after July
1, 2000, except for the provisions related to repricings and the
definition of an employee which apply to awards issued after
December 15, 1998. The provisions related to modifications to fixed
stock option awards to add a reload feature are effective for
awards modified after January 12, 2000. The new interpretation is
not expected to have a material impact upon the financial
statements.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101, Revenue Recognition
in Financial Statements. SAB 101 provides guidance on the
recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial
statements of all public registrants. Any change in the Company's
revenue recognition policy resulting from the implementation of SAB
101 would be reported as a change in accounting principle. In June
2000, the SEC issued SAB 101B which delays the implementation date
of SAB 101 until the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1999.
3. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME. Other comprehensive income includes
foreign currency translation adjustments and net unrealized gains
and losses on investments in equity securities. Such amounts are

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION. Syncor has identified three primary
operating segments: U.S. Pharmacy Services, U.S. Medical Imaging
and International Operations. Segment selection was based upon
internal organizational structures, how these operations are
managed and evaluated, the availability of separate financial
results, and materiality considerations. Segment detail is
summarized as follows:

5. NET INCOME PER SHARE. Basic earnings per share (EPS) amounts are
computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stockholders by the
average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS amounts assume the
issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive equivalents
outstanding. Anti-dilutive outstanding stock options of 772 at September
30, 2000 and 127 at September 30, 1999 have been excluded from the
diluted calculation.
The reconciliation of the numerator and denominators of the basic and
diluted earnings per share computations are as follows for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999:

6. NOTES RECEIVABLE - RELATED PARTIES. The Company initiated a
Senior Management Stock Purchase Plan effective June 16, 1998,
pursuant to which, officers and key employees of the Company
purchased shares of Syncor stock. The shares were paid with a
five-year interest-bearing promissory note payable to the
Company. Interest on each note is payable on each anniversary
date, with the entire outstanding principal and unpaid interest
due on the fifth anniversary date.
7. ACQUISITIONS OF BUSINESSES. During the second quarter of
2000, the Company acquired the remaining interest in nine
managed sites for a total acquisition price of $8.7 million
plus the assumption of $2.4 million in debt.
During the third quarter of 2000, the Company acquired 13 medical
imaging centers located in California and Florida. The
acquisition price was approximately $31.0 million plus the
assumption of $1.3 million in debt.
The Company accounted for these transactions as purchases and the
purchase prices were allocated primarily to fixed assets,
accounts receivable and goodwill.
<PAGE>
SYNCOR INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
For the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999
NET SALES
_________
Consolidated net sales for the three months ended September 30,
2000 increased 18.2% or $24.0 million to $155.5 million versus
$131.5 million for the third quarter of 1999. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 net sales increased 19.0% or $73.1 million
to $458.8 million compared to $385.7 million for the same period in
1999.
U.S. PHARMACY SERVICES
The Pharmacy Services revenue grew 9.8% for the quarter and 11.1%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The Company's sales
growth for the third quarter was impacted by one less sales day as
compared to 1999. The sales increase for the quarter would have
been 11.5% on a comparable basis to the same period of the prior
year. The primary source of growth continues to be from cardiology.
Within the cardiology sector, the Company's sales increased at
13.7% for the quarter, as compared to the third quarter of last
year and 15.3% for the nine months compared to the nine months in
1999. Unit dose sales of Cardiolite(R), proprietary heart imaging
agent to which the Company has preferential distribution rights,
increased approximately 18.0% in the third quarter as compared to
the third quarter of 1999, and 19.8% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000. The Company's most recent price increase, which
took effect in January 2000, contributed approximately 3.5% of this
increase. Despite competition from a competing cardiac agent, it
is the Company's belief that Cardiolite(R) continues to gain market
share among the cardiac imaging agents.
The Company continues to see growth in servicing the cardiology
requirements of a large portion of its managed care business
despite losing the contract awards to these managed groups. The
Company continues to see growth in gross profit margins associated
with these groups primarily due to the absence of administrative
fees and higher product pricing for these group purchases.
U.S. MEDICAL IMAGING
The Company continues to see excellent growth in the Medical
Imaging Business as a result of both strategic acquisitions in
targeted geographic regions and growth from existing sites. Sales
from the Medical Imaging Business grew at 79.7% for the quarter and
74.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Same store
sales growth was approximately 15.7% for the quarter and 14.7% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000. To accomplish its
strategic goals, the Company has devoted additional funding for
critical management positions and intends to consolidate the
billing and collection functions on a single software platform.
INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
The Company's International Operations continue to grow as sales
for the quarter increased 21.8% from the prior year quarter.
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased
45.5% from the prior year. This sales growth comes from two
areas. Same store sales grew 11.4% in the quarter and 31.1%
year-to-date. In addition, the Company opened or acquired seven
new sites since the third quarter of 1999.
GROSS PROFIT
____________
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2000
increased $12.7 million to $55.4 million, and as a percentage of
net sales reached 35.6% for this quarter as compared to 32.5% of
net sales for the third quarter of 1999. The gross profit for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased by $37.3 million to
$161.9 million or 30.0% and as a percentage of net sales to 35.3%
compared to 32.3% for the comparable period in 1999.
<PAGE>
U.S. PHARMACY SERVICES
The gross profit margin for this segment increased in the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 from 26.0% in 1999 to 27.7% in 2000. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the gross margin
increased from 26.7% to 28.1%. Material costs have decreased
slightly as a percentage of sales in spite of vendor price
increases due to better contracted rates, product mix changes
resulting in higher sales of higher margin products (primarily
Cardiolite(R)) and the price increase that was instituted in
January, 2000. Direct labor costs have declined as a percentage of
sales due to more efficient staffing levels and additional leverage
generated from these increased sales volumes.
U.S. MEDICAL IMAGING
The gross profit margin for this segment decreased in the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 from 73.8% in 1999 to 69.6% in 2000. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the gross margin
decreased from 74.9% to 70.5%. These declines are primarily the
result of two factors. The first is the conversion of sites from
managed sites to owned sites, which results in the loss of
"management fee income" without a corresponding impact on the
"cost of goods sold." The second is an increase in the reading
fees paid to contracted radiologists. Volume continues to
increase as a result of increased site growth and site
acquisitions. This segment has contributed $18.6 million of the
$37.3 million increase in gross profit for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.
INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
The gross profit margin for this segment decreased in the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 from 41.1% in 1999 to 38.5% in 2000. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the gross profit margin
increased from 39.1% in 1999 to 41.3% in 2000. The third quarter
margin was impacted by start-up costs associated with the
brachytherapy and PET isotope production businesses. Excluding
these expenses, this margin would have improved to 42.6%.
International Operations is expected to continue to improve
margins as volume increases, which allows for better utilization
of site resources. The addition of owned and managed imaging
centers, which have a lower cost of materials when compared to
pharmacy operations, is also expected to contribute to these
margin increases.
OPERATING, SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
______________________________________________
Operating, Selling and Administrative costs for the quarter ended
September 30, 2000 increased by $6.5 million or 22.1% to $36.2
million as compared to $29.6 million for the comparable quarter in
1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 these expenses
increased by $19.2 million or 23.5% to $101.1 million as compared
to $81.9 million for the same period in 1999. The ratio of these
expenses to sales increased from 22.5% in 1999 to 23.3% in 2000 for
the comparable quarters and from 21.2% to 22.0% for the comparable
nine-month periods. The Medical Imaging business, which
traditionally has higher operating cost to sales ratio, contributed
the majority of the nine months change. This business showed an
increase in costs of $4.3 million for the quarter and $10.1 million
for the nine-month period due primarily to acquisitions and the
accompanying need for increased infrastructure. The Pharmacy
Services business expenses in this area increased due to higher
labor costs and certain sales incentive programs.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
_____________________________
Depreciation expense increased by $2.2 million to $7.0 million or
45.4% in the three months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to
the same period in 1999. For the nine months ended September 30,
2000 depreciation expense increased by $5.5 million to $18.7
million or 41.1%. The medical imaging business contributed $1.8
million of the increase in the quarter and $4.2 million of the
increase for the nine-month period. This increase is the result of
goodwill, depreciation, and non-compete costs associated with the
Medical Imaging business expansion. The Company expects these
trends to continue as this segment is very capital intensive and
further acquisitions are planned.
OTHER EXPENSE, NET
__________________
The change in Other Expense, Net for the quarter is the result of
increased borrowings and the resultant interest expense from the
Medical Imaging business acquisitions which were completed in 1999
and 2000. The third quarter of 1999 includes an operating
investment write-down charge of $1.1 million, net of tax. The
increase in interest expense year-to-date was partially offset by
miscellaneous income from legal settlements, which have been
classified as a non-recurring item. The settlements total $0.25
million after tax or approximately $.01 on a fully diluted basis.

The Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $30.9
million at September 30, 2000 compared with $23.1 million at
December 31, 1999. The Company's total debt position of $138.2
million at September 30, 2000 reflects an increase of $52.6
million when compared to the balance of $85.6 million at December
31, 1999. The increase in debt for the nine months ended September
30, 2000, results primarily from the financing of the continued
expansion of the Medical Imaging business. Working capital
increased by $22.2 million to $78.5 million at September 30, 2000,
compared to $56.3 million at December 31, 1999.
At quarter-end, the Company made a purchase of approximately two
months' worth of Cardiolite(r) inventory at favorable terms.
This inventory will be completely utilized by mid-December 2000.
The Company believes sufficient internal and external sources exist
to fund operations and future expansion plans. At September 30,
2000, $26.7 million was available on the $125 million credit line,
which was subsequently replaced on October 17, 2000 by a new credit
facility of $150 million, with the ability to expand the facility
to $200 million.

During the second quarter of 2000, the Company acquired the
remaining interest in nine managed sites for a total acquisition
price of $8.7 million plus the assumption of $2.4 million in debt.
During the third quarter of 2000, the Company acquired 13 medical
imaging centers located in California and Florida. The acquisition
