ANALOGIC CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's balance sheet reflects a current ratio of 8.0 to 1 at April 30,
1999 compared to 6.5 to 1 at July 31, 1998. Cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities, along with accounts and notes receivable, constitute
approximately 74% of current assets at April 30, 1999. Liquidity is sustained
principally through funds provided from operations, with short-term time
deposits and marketable securities available to provide additional sources of
cash. The Company places its cash investments in high credit quality
financial instruments and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to
any one financial institution. Management does not anticipate any
difficulties in financing operations at anticipated levels. The Company's
debt to equity ratio was 0.17 to 1 at April 30, 1999 and 0.21 to 1 at July 31,
1998.
Capital expenditures totaled approximately $9,914,000 during the nine months
ended April 30, 1999, compared to $9,672,000 during the nine months ended
April 30, 1998.
The Company announced on March 16, 1999 that it will purchase, from time to
time, a number of its common shares in the open market,and as of April 30,
1999 the Company purchased 10,000 shares at an aggregate cost of $345,000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months Fiscal 1999 (04/30/99) vs. Nine Months Fiscal 1998 (04/30/98)
Product, service, engineering and licensing revenues for the nine months ended
April 30, 1999 were $196,913,000 as compared to $199,766,000 for the same
period last year, a decrease of 1%. The decrease of $2,853,000 was due to a
decreased sales in Signal Processing Technology Products of $6,477,000 and a
decrease in Industrial Technology Products of $2,653,000, offset by increased
sales of Medical Technology Products of $6,277,000. Product revenues continued
to be adversely affected by softness in the Asian and South American markets.
Other operating revenue of $8,669,000 and $8,785,000 represents revenue from
the Hotel operation for the nine months ending April 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.
Interest and dividend income increased $732,000, primarily due to interest
earned from the City of Peabody on real estate tax abatement.
The percentage of total cost of sales to total net sales for the nine months
of fiscal 1999 and 1998 were 59% and 60%, respectively. Operating costs
associated with the Hotel during the nine months of fiscal 1999 and 1998 were
$4,431,000 and $4,531,000, respectively.
General and administrative and selling expenses increased by $1,098,000
primarily due to increased staffing, partially offset by a real estate tax
abatement of approximately $170,000. Research and product development
expenses increased $2,916,000 primarily due to the Company's expanding
engineering efforts applicable to developing new and complex imaging systems,
and partially offset by a benefit of real estate tax abatement of
approximately $300,000.
Computer software costs of $1,427,000 and $1,183,000 were capitalized in the
nine months of fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively. Amortization of
capitalized software amounted to $1,478,000 and $1,801,000 in the nine months
of fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months Fiscal 1999 (04/30/99) vs. Nine Months Fiscal 1998 (04/30/98)
(continued)
A loss on foreign exchange of $109,000 was realized during the nine months of
fiscal year 1999 versus a gain of $125,000 for the same period last year.
Most of the foreign exchange gains or losses have been incurred by our Danish
subsidiary, B-K Medical.
Minority interest in the net income of the Company's consolidated subsidiary,
Camtronics, for the nine months ended April 30, 1999 amounted to $479,000
compared to $627,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 1998.
During the nine months of fiscal 1999, the Company's investment in Analogic
Scientific was decreased by $180,000, and by $575,000 in the same period last
year, reflecting the Company's share of Analogic Scientific's equity.
The Company's share of losses of a privately held company amounted to
$3,599,000 and $2,485,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 1999 and
1998.
During the first nine months of fiscal 1999 and 1998, the Company's investment
in another privately held company was increased by $102,000 and $249,000,
respectively, reflecting the Company's share of its equity.
The Company recorded a reserve of $400,000 reflecting a partial impairment of
its 19% investment in another privately held company, during the first nine
months of fiscal 1998. No adjustment was required for the nine months of
fiscal 1999.
During the nine months of fiscal 1998, the Company sold 140,560 common shares
of a publicly traded company, resulting in a gain of $997,000.
Income from operations for the nine months of fiscal 1999 was adversely
affected by the softness in the Asian and South American markets, the
additional expenses associated with new engineering and production start up
programs, and the additional costs the company has sustained during this
period on making its systems Year 2000 compliant.
The effective tax rate for the nine months of fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998 was
26% versus 34%, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the tax
benefit applicable to equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiaries and the
reversal of an overaccrual of prior years tax provision.
Net income for the nine months ended April 30, 1999 was $15,652,000, or $1.23
per diluted share, as compared to net income of $16,678,000, or $1.31 per
diluted share, for the nine months period ended April 30, 1998.
<PAGE>10
ANALOGIC CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Year 2000
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four digits to define the application year. Computer
programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as
the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. If the Company's internal systems do
not correctly recognize date information when the year changes to 2000, there
could be an adverse impact on the Company's operation.
The Company has undertaken considerable effort to assess the actions and
resources that will be required to make its systems Year 2000 compliant. The
Company, utilizing both internal and external resources to upgrade its
computer hardware and software systems, commenced implementation and now is
configuring and testing the Year 2000 software to meets its business needs.
The Company has also identified and is in the process of implementing changes
to other equipment in order to make them Year 2000 compliant.
The Company is also assessing the possible effects of the Year 2000 issues on
its significant vendors and customers, which could in turn affect the
Company's operations. The Company has not yet been able to determine,
however, whether any of its suppliers or service providers will need to make
any such software modifications or replacements or whether the failure to make
such software corrections will have an adverse effect on the Company's
operations or financial condition.
The Company currently estimates that Year 2000 costs for this current fiscal
year and next will range from $5.0 million to $7.0 million. The estimated
costs are based on management's best projections, yet there can be no
guarantee that those forecasts will be achieved and actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated. The cost of the project will be
funded through operating cash flows.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Third Quarter Fiscal 1999 (04/30/99) vs. Third Quarter Fiscal 1998 (04/30/98)
Product, service, engineering and licensing revenues for the three months
ended April 30, 1998 were $66,706,000 as compared to $73,357,000 for the same
period last year, a decrease of 9%. The decrease of $6,651,000 was due to a
decrease in sales of $2,217,000 of Medical Technology Products, a decrease in
Signal Processing Technology Products of $766,000 and a decrease in Industrial
Technology Products of $3,668,000. Product revenues continued to be adversely
affected by the softness in the Asian and South American markets. Other
operating revenue of $2,637,000 and $2,575,000 represents revenue from the
Hotel operation for the three months ending April 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.
The percentage of total cost of sales to total net sales for the third quarter
of fiscal 1999 and 1998 were 58% and 60%, respectively. The total cost of
sales percentage decreased due to higher engineering and licensing revenues.
Operating costs associated with the Hotel during the third quarter of fiscal
1999 and 1998 were $1,458,000 and $1,396,000, respectively.
General and administrative and selling expenses increased $361,000 primarily
due to increased staffing. Research and product development expenses increased
$960,000 primarily due to the Company's expanding engineering efforts
applicable to developing new and complex imaging systems.

quarter of fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively. Amortization of capitalized
software amounted to $474,000 and $605,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1999
and 1998, respectively.
A gain on foreign exchange of $40,000 was realized during the third quarter of
fiscal 1999 versus a gain of $4,000 for the same period last year. Most of
the foreign exchange gains have been incurred by our Danish subsidiary, B-K
Medical.
Minority interest in the net income of the Company's consolidated subsidiary,
Camtronics, for the third quarter ended April 30, 1999 amounted to $133,000
compared to $268,000 for the third quarter ended April 30, 1998.
The Company's share of losses of a privately held company amounted to
$1,451,000 and $972,000 during the third quarter of fiscal 1999 and 1998.
During the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company's investment in another
privately held company was decreased by $10,000, reflecting the Company's
share of its loss, compared to a decrease of $178,000 for the third quarter of
fiscal 1998.
Income from operations for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 was adversely
affected by the continued softness in the Asian and South American markets,
the additional expenses associated with new engineering and production start
up programs, the additional costs the company has sustained during this period
on making its systems Year 2000 compliant, and favorably impacted by higher
licensing revenue associated with the development of a low cost CT-Scanner.
The effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998
was 26% vs. 33%, for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily
due to the reversal of an overaccrual of prior years tax provision, and to the
tax benefit applicable to equity in losses of unconsolidated subsidiaries.
Net income for the quarter ended April 30, 1999 was $5,330,000, or $0.42 per
diluted share, as compared to net income of $6,362,000, or $0.50 per share for
the same period last year.
