AMERICAN SHARED HOSPITAL SERVICES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly American Shared Hospital
Services' (the "Company") consolidated financial position as of March 31, 1999
and the results of its operations for the three month periods ended March 31,
1999 and 1998, which results are not necessarily indicative of results on an
annualized basis. Consolidated balance sheet amounts as of December 31, 1998
have been derived from audited financial statements. These financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly- owned subsidiaries:
CuraCare, Inc.; MMRI, Inc.; European Shared Medical Services Limited; American
Shared Radiosurgery Services; African American Church Health and Economic
Services, Inc.; ACHES Insurance Services, Inc.; and the Company's majority-owned
subsidiary, GK Financing, LLC.
American Shared Hospital Services ("the Company") through its majority-owned
subsidiary, GK Financing, LLC, provides Gamma Knife units to five medical
centers in California, Texas, and Connecticut. The Company provided shared
diagnostic imaging services to health care providers located in various
geographic regions of the United States through November of 1998. The five
diagnostic imaging services provided by the Company were Magnetic Resonance
Imaging (MRI), Computed Axial Topography Scanning (CT), Ultrasound, Nuclear
Medicine, and Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory services. On November 13, 1998,
the stock of Curacare, Inc. and the assets of the diagnostic imaging services
product line were sold to a third party ("Sale").
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Note 2. Per Share Amounts
Per share information has been computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Medical services revenues decreased $7,756,000 for the three month period ended
March 31, 1999 from $9,322,000 for the three month period ended March 31,1998.
Revenues from Gamma Knife services increased $930,000 for the three month period
ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase
reflects increased utilization at centers in operation for longer than one year
(58%) and the addition of two new Gamma Knife units. Diagnostic imaging services
(MRI, CT, Ultrasound and Nuclear Medicine) and contract service (Cardiac
Catheterization Laboratory and Respiratory Therapy) revenues decreased
$8,686,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same
period in the prior year, due to the Sale.
-5-
<PAGE> 6
Total costs of operations decreased $6,448,000 for the three month period ended
March 31, 1999 compared to the same period in the prior year. Medical services
payroll decreased $1,947,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1999
compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease is attributable to
the Sale and the fact that the Company does not currently provide labor as a
component of its Gamma Knife services. Maintenance and supplies decreased
$1,397,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same
period in the prior year due to the Sale. Maintenance and supplies for Gamma
Knife services increased $9,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1999
compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the expiration of
the warranty period of a unit. Depreciation and amortization decreased
$1,073,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same
period in the prior year due to the Sale. Depreciation and amortization for
Gamma Knife services increased $219,000 primarily due to two additional units in
1999. Equipment rental decreased $938,000 for the three month period ended March
31, 1999 compared to the same period in the prior year due to the Sale. Gamma
Knife services had zero equipment rental expenses. Other operating costs
decreased $1,093,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 compared to
the same period in the prior year due to the Sale. Other operating costs for
Gamma Knife services increased approximately $10,000 primarily due to an
increase in insurance and tax expenses.
Selling and administrative costs decreased $931,000 for the three month period
ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due
to personnel reductions in the areas of sales and marketing, accounting and
finance and administration and the other expenses related to those functions.
The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue results from programs written using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. As a result, those computer
programs have time-sensitive software that recognize a date using "00" as the
year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could cause a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruption of operations, including among other things,
a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in
similar normal business activities.
Due to the Sale, the Company is in the process of downsizing its computer
operations. The Company is in the process of replacing and upgrading much of its
computer hardware and programs with equipment and programs that are Y2K
compatible. This replacement and upgrade process is expected to be completed in
the second quarter of 1999 and the cost is not expected to exceed $70,000.
The Company's current revenue source, the Gamma Knife, is Y2K compliant. The
Company's five current operational customers, which are large urban medical
centers, all have disbursement systems that are or will be Y2K compliant during
1999.
Should the disbursement systems of the Company's operating customers not be Y2K
compliant, the Company would be materially impacted. The Company would exercise
its contractual rights due to nonpayment, if necessary.
The Company believes that the Y2K issue, except for any customer disbursement
systems which are not Y2K compliant on January 1, 2000, and for which the
customer cannot produce manual
-6-
<PAGE> 7
checks, will not materially affect the Company's business, results of
operations, or financial condition.
Interest expense decreased $581,000 for the three month period ending March 31,
1999 compared to the same period in the prior year due to the Sale. Interest
expense for Gamma Knife services increased $148,000 primarily due to the
addition of two additional units.
Interest and other income increased $28,000 for the three month period ending
March 31, 1999 compared to the same period in the prior year. Interest income in
first quarter 1999 was approximately $119,000 and was offset by a charge for
minority interest of approximately $90,000.
The Company realized a net income tax benefit of $45,000 for the three month
period ending March 31, 1999 compared to the same period in the prior year. The
federal income tax benefit of $80,000 was offest by state income taxes of
$35,000.
The Company had net income of $488,000 ($0.11 per basic share) for the three
month period ended March 31, 1999 compared to net income of $205,000 ($.04 per
basic share) in the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily
due to increased operating margins. The Company's operating margin (Medical
services revenues less Costs of operations) as a percentage of Medical services
revenues increased from 26% in first quarter 1998 to 70% in first quarter 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $8,772,000 at March 31, 1999
compared to $11,114,000 at December 31, 1998. The Company's cash position
decreased $2,342,000 due primarily to the payment of federal and state income
taxes ($1,192,000) primarily related to the Sale, Company's repurchase of common
stock ($792,000) and the payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities. An
additional $1,000,000 is classified under Restricted cash until April 15, 1999
under the terms of the Sale. The $1,000,000 was released from restriction on
April 16, 1999.
Restricted cash of $2,299,000 at March 31, 1999 and $2,226,000 at December 31,
1998 reflects cash that may only be used for the operations of GK Financing, LLC
(GKF) and the $1,000,000 previously described as restricted under terms of the
Sale. The increase in Restricted cash of $73,000 is primarily due to cash flow
from Gamma Knife operations. The increase in Restricted cash was lessened by
GKF's cash distributions of $810,000 to the Company and $190,000 to the other
member of GKF in the first quarter of 1999.
The Company as of March 31, 1999 had shareholders' equity of approximately
$10,800,000, working capital of approximately $8,600,000 and total assets of
approximately $25,300,000.
The Company is investing its cash in overnight repurchase agreements and
commercial paper pending use in the Company's operations. The Company believes
its cash position combined with its working capital is adequate to service the
Company's cash requirements in 1999.
