INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Trustees of Sunrise Medical Inc. Profit Sharing/Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Sunrise Medical Inc. Profit Sharing/Savings Plan (the Plan) as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended June 30, 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for year ended June 30, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

SUNRISE MEDICAL INC.
PROFIT SHARING/SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 1999 and 1998

(1) Description of Plan

The following description of the Sunrise Medical Inc. Profit Sharing/Savings Plan (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. The Plan is sponsored by Sunrise Medical Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (the company), and the Plan's trustee and recordkeeper is American Express Trust Company (American Express). Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

General

The Plan is a defined contribution plan, which went into effect July 1, 1984 and is generally available to all U.S. employees who have completed 60 days of service with the company. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

Contributions

The following types of contributions are allowable under the Plan:

  • Salary Deferral Contributions - Participants may contribute up to 14% of their pre-tax earnings, as defined in the Plan document, subject to limitations. A participant's total tax-deferred contribution cannot exceed $10,000 in calendar year 1999.

  • Matching Employer Contributions - The company contributes matching amounts each Plan year. Salary deferral contributions were matched 100% up to a maximum of $400 per participant for the Plan year ended June 30, 1999.

  • Discretionary Employer Contributions - The company may make an additional profit sharing contribution to those eligible participants who have completed one year of service and are actively employed as of the last day of the Plan year. This contribution is limited to a maximum of 6% of the participant's eligible earnings and is allocated in proportion to each participant's earnings. For the year ended June 30, 1999, the company made an additional profit sharing contribution equal to 4% of each participants eligible earnings, with the exception of one division which made an additional profit sharing contribution of 6%, for all participants employed on the last day of the Plan's year end.

  • Post-tax Participant Contributions - Post-tax contributions of up to 10% of a participant's earnings may be contributed to the Plan.

  • Rollover Contributions - Amounts distributed to participants from other qualified employee benefit plans may be rolled into the Plan.
  • All contributions are allocated to the Plan's investment funds at the direction of the participants.

    The total annual addition to a participant's account may not exceed the lesser of $30,000 or 25% of the participant's net earnings.

    Participant Accounts

    Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and an allocation of (a) the company's contribution (matching employer and discretionary employer) and (b) fund earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan document. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account.

    Vesting

    Participants are immediately vested in their contributions, matching employer contributions, rollover contributions and related earnings thereon.

    Full vesting in the discretionary employer contributions occurs at the earliest of the following dates:

  • Completion of five vesting years of service;

  • Participant's death;

  • Participant becomes disabled as defined under the Plan;

  • Participant's normal retirement date; or

  • Upon termination or partial termination of the Plan.
  • Participants become partially vested in the discretionary employer contributions at 25% increments per plan year after completing one year plus 1,000 hours of service. Discretionary employer contributions to participants who are union employees are vested after five years of service.

    Investment Options

    Participants may allocate their contributions to any combination of the following investment choices managed by American Express:

    Loans to Participants

    Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $500 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance during the previous twelve months or 50% of their vested account balance. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the investment fund from (to) the Loans to Participants fund. Loan terms range from 1 month to 5 years or up to 20 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear interest at a rate equal to prime interest rate plus two percentage points. Interest rates range from approximately 7.8% to 11% at June 30, 1999. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions.

    Payment of Benefits

    Benefits to participants or beneficiaries generally are payable as a lump sum equal to the value of their vested account upon retirement, disability, death or termination of the participant or termination of the Plan. Additionally, participants may withdraw their salary deferral contributions during financial hardships, as defined in the Plan document.

    Investment in Life Insurance

    Participants, after five years of service, may elect to have all or a portion of their account held and invested in one or more life insurance policies, subject to the rules of the Plan.

    Forfeited Accounts

    Forfeitures totaled $50,339 for the year ended June 30, 1999. Forfeited nonvested accounts were $0 at June 30, 1999 and $23,515 at June 30, 1998. Employer contributions were reduced by $33,128 in 1999 from forfeited nonvested accounts. In 1999, $40,526 of administrative expenses were paid from forfeitures.

    Administrative Expenses

    Plan administrative expenses are funded first by participant fees and then by forfeitures. Plan administrative expenses were $120,034 in 1999.

    (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    Basis of Accounting

    The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.

    Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

    The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Fair value is based on quoted market prices for the underlying assets within each fund and based on contract value for benefit responsive guaranteed investment contracts from insurance companies. Company stock is valued using quoted market prices. Loans to participants are valued at their outstanding balance, which approximates fair value. Life insurance contracts are allocated contracts, the premiums for which are treated as distributions, with the cash value excluded from Plan assets. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.

    Use of Estimates

    The plan sponsor and administrator have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    Accounting Standard Adopted

    In September 1999, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 99-3, "Accounting for and Reporting of Certain Defined Contribution Plan Investments and Other Disclosure Matters" (SOP 99-3). SOP 99-3 simplifies the disclosure for certain investments and is effective for plan years ending after December 15, 1999 with earlier application encouraged. The Plan adopted SOP 99-3 during the Plan year ended June 30, 1999. Accordingly, information previously required to be disclosed about participant-directed fund investment programs is not presented in the Plan's 1999 financial statements. The Plan's 1998 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.

    (3) Investments

    The Plan's investments consist primarily of collective investment funds, mutual funds and company common stock. The Plan's investments in collective investment funds are the American Express Trust Income Fund II and the American Express Trust Equity Index Fund II. The plan's investments in mutual funds are the AXP Mutual Fund, AXP New Dimensions Fund, AXP Stock Fund, AXP Selective Fund and the Franklin Templeton Mutual Shares Fund. All of the above listed funds are managed by American Express except the Franklin Templeton Mutual Shares Fund, which is managed by the Franklin Templeton Group. Investments in the Sunrise Medical Inc. Pooled Common Stock Fund primarily consist of the common stock of Sunrise Medical Inc. and cash in the American Express Trust Money Market Fund I. The Plan's investments consist of the following at June 30:

    Collective Investment Funds                $  874,195

    ----------- $1,588,205 ===========

    (4) Plan Termination

    Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan, subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination or partial termination, affected participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

    (5) Income Taxes

    The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the company by a letter dated November 19, 1999, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator believes that the Plan is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
