5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

    Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period and, if
there are dilutive securities in a period of net income, diluted earnings per
share is computed by including common stock equivalents outstanding for the
period in the denominator. Common stock equivalents include shares issuable upon
the exercise of stock

    During the three and six month periods ended January 1, 2000, there were
1,500 options with an expiration date of March 29, 2000 to purchase shares of
common stock that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per
share because the options' exercise price was greater than the average market
price of the common stock. All warrants to purchase shares of common stock were
included in the computation of diluted EPS. During the three month period ended
December 26, 1998, there were 133,000 options to purchase shares of common
stock, and warrants to purchase 281,983 shares of common stock that were not
included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise
prices of the options and warrants were greater than the average market price of
the common stock. During the six month period ended December 26, 1998, there
were 258,173 options to purchase shares of common stock, and warrants to
purchase 281,983 shares of common stock that were not included in the
calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the
options and warrants were greater than the average market price of the common
stock.

    On January 12, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 3-for-2
stock split, payable in the form of a 50% stock dividend. All shareholders of
record at the close of business on January 28, 2000 will receive one additional
share for every two shares of common stock owned. The additional shares will be
distributed to shareholders on or about February 28, 2000. In accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles a stock split is not reflected until
the ex-dividend date. The ex-dividend date for the Company is February 29, 2000,
therefore, these financial statements do not reflect the stock split. Upon
completion of this stock dividend, Candela will have approximately 11 million
shares of common stock outstanding.

7. INCOME TAXES

   The provision for income taxes results from a combination of activities
including both the domestic and foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The
provision for income taxes for the six months ended January 1, 2000, reflects a
reduction of the valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the
amount of $1,595,000, of which $797,000 was recognized in the current quarter.
The total provision for income taxes includes tax provisions calculated in Japan
and Spain at a rate in excess of the U.S. statutory tax rate. The Company had
deferred tax assets of $4,214,000 at the beginning of the current fiscal year. A
valuation allowance had then been provided against the deferred tax asset in the
amount of $3,114,000 leaving a net deferred tax asset of $1,100,000. The
valuation allowance has been reduced by $1,595,000 in the current year
effectively increasing the net deferred tax asset to $2,695,000. The effective
tax rate for the year is

expected to be approximately 20% due to anticipated reductions in the valuation
allowance. It is expected that the valuation allowance will be fully utilized
during the current fiscal year.

8. SEGMENT INFORMATION

    Product Sales and Service assets increased primarily due to the proceeds

9. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

    On November 23, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved an open
market stock repurchase program that enables the Company to purchase up to
500,000 shares of its common stock. The program is in effect for two years, from
December 13, 1999 to December 12, 2001, and may be suspended or discontinued by
the Board at any time. All such purchases will be transacted on the Nasdaq Stock
Market at prevailing open market prices and will be paid for with general
corporate funds. Any such purchases will be accounted for at cost and held as
treasury stock. The Board has delegated to the discretion of Candela's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer the authority to determine the
timing of the repurchase program's commencement and the timing of any subsequent
purchases. To date, no stock repurchases of the Company's stock have occurred.

10. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board "FASB" issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133") "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
"derivatives"), and for hedging activities. SFAS 133 requires companies to
recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities, with the instruments
measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value, gains or
losses, depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting
designation. Originally, the statement had been effective for all fiscal
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June 1999, the FASB
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 ("SFAS 137"),
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which postponed
the adoption of SFAS 133 until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
Accordingly, the Company plans to implement SFAS 133 for its fiscal year 2001.

    The derivative instruments and hedging activities entered into by Candela
include foreign currency forward contracts to protect against currency
fluctuation for amounts due between itself and its foreign subsidiaries. At
January 1, 2000, the Company held foreign currency forward contracts with
notional value totaling approximately $4,442,000 compared to forward contracts
with a value of $1,463,000 held at December 26, 1998. The present contracts have
maturity dates prior to April 28, 2000. The carrying and net fair value of these
contracts at January 1, 2000, was $0 and $3,551, respectively, compared to $0
and ($70,000) respectively, at December 26, 1998.

ITEM 2-- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

    We research, develop, manufacture, market and service lasers used to perform
aesthetic and cosmetic procedures. We sell our lasers principally to medical
practitioners. We market our products directly and through a network of
distributors to end users. Our traditional customer base includes plastic and
cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists. More recently we have expanded our sales
to a broader group of practitioners consisting of general practitioners and
certain specialists including obstetricians, gynecologists and general and
vascular surgeons. We have also begun to target electrologists in the
hair-removal market. We derive our revenue from: the sales of lasers and other
products; the provision of product-related services; and the operations of our
remaining skin care center. Greater than 50% of our revenue in recent periods
has come from international sales.

    The increase in foreign revenue for the three and six month periods is
attributable to increased sales by our Japanese subsidiary, including sales by
our Osaka, Japan sales office, which was not operational in our second quarter
of fiscal 1999. US sales were impacted by increased sales to our US distributors
supporting the obstetrician, gynecologist and general and vascular surgeon
market.

    The increase in laser product revenue for both the three and six month
periods resulted from a substantial increase in sales of our
GentleLASE-Registered Trademark- product line, as well as increased shipments of
the ScleroPlus-TM- and AlexLAZR-TM- systems. The impact of increased shipments
of the GentleLASE-Registered Trademark- in the 2(nd) quarter of the prior year
is also reflected in the reduced change in the increase from the first to the
second quarter of the current fiscal year from a 63% increase in the first
quarter to a 36% increase in the second quarter. We also began shipping the
GentlePEEL-TM- system, which was not available in the same periods a year
earlier. Skin care center revenue increased as a result of increased marketing
and promotion.

    GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit increased to $10,107,000, or 57% of revenues for
the three month period ended January 1, 2000, compared to gross profit of
$6,800,000, or 51% for the same period one year earlier. For the six month
period ended January 1, 2000, gross profit increased to $19,248,000, or 57% of
revenues, compared to $11,865,000 and 49% of revenues for the same period a year
earlier. The increase in gross profit, over the same period a year earlier, is
principally the result of increased sales of higher margin laser systems and
higher absorption of fixed portions of manufacturing overhead due to our higher
sales volume.

    SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased from $4,213,000 in the three month period
ended December 26, 1998, to $5,128,000 for the three month period ending
January 1, 2000. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased to 29% of revenues in comparison to 31% of revenues in the
year prior. Selling, general, and administrative costs were impacted by
increased legal costs associated with litigation surrounding the Dynamic Cooling
Device, as well as spending for larger sales and marketing staffs over the same
period a year earlier. For the six month period ended January 1, 2000, selling,
general and administrative expenses amounted to $10,129,000, an increase over
expenses of $7,546,000 incurred a year earlier. This increase is primarily a
result of the increased marketing and sales staff, including costs for our
Osaka, Japan sales

office which was not operational in the same period a year earlier. Selling,
general and administrative expenses were 30% and 31% of revenues for the six
month periods ended January 1, 2000 and December 26, 1998, respectively.

    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE.  Research and development spending
increased to $1,202,000 for the three months ended January 1, 2000, compared to
$760,000 for the same period one year earlier. For the six month period ending
January 1, 2000, research and development spending increased $735,000, to
$2,183,000, from $1,448,000 in the same period a year earlier. Research and
development spending increased due to the cost of developing our new pulsed dye
laser system, the Vbeam-TM-, as well as an overall increase in our research and
development staff.

    RESTRUCTURING CHARGE.  During the quarter ended December 27, 1997, a
restructuring charge was recorded and a reserve established in the amount of
$2,609,000 resulting from management's decision to close the skin care center
located in Scottsdale, Arizona. For the six month period ended January 1, 2000,
a total of $236,000 was charged against this reserve, representing costs
associated with the Scottsdale facility. $111,000 of these costs were charged
against the reserve in the current quarter. We continue to pursue a sublease of
the Scottsdale facility, but if this effort is not successful, we could incur
additional costs in excess of our existing reserve. Management believes that the
current reserve will be adequate so that no additional material charges will
need to be recognized for at least the next 18 months, unless we are
unsuccessful in subleasing or terminating our Scottsdale lease.

    OPERATING INCOME.  Operating income for the quarter ended January 1, 2000,
increased 107% to $3,777,000, or 21% of revenues, compared to $1,827,000 and 14%
of revenues for the same quarter one year earlier. For the six month period
ended January 1, 2000, operating income increased 142% to $6,936,000, or 21% of
revenue, compared to $2,871,0000 and 12% of revenues for the same period a year
ago.

    OTHER INCOME/EXPENSE.  Net other income and expense was $280,000 in income
for the three months ended January 1, 2000, in comparison to expenses of $64,000
for the same period a year earlier. For the six month period ended January 1,
2000, net other income and expense amounted to $512,000 in income in comparison
to $98,000 in expenses for the same period a year earlier. These increases in
other income resulted primarily from increased interest income resulting from a
higher level of invested cash during the period.

    INCOME TAXES.  The provision for income taxes results from a combination of
activities including both the domestic and foreign subsidiaries of the Company.
The provision for income taxes for the six months ended January 1, 2000,
reflects a reduction of the valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset
in the amount of $1,595,000, of which $797,000 was recognized in the current
quarter. The total provision for income taxes includes tax provisions calculated
in Japan and Spain at a rate in excess of the U.S. statutory tax rate. We had
deferred tax assets of $4,214,000 at the beginning of the current fiscal year. A
valuation allowance had then been provided against the deferred tax asset in the
amount of $3,114,000, leaving a net deferred tax asset of $1,100,000. The
valuation allowance has been reduced by $1,595,000 in the current year
effectively increasing the net deferred tax asset to $2,695,000. The effective
tax rate for the year is expected to be approximately 20% due to anticipated
reductions in the valuation allowance. It is expected that the valuation
allowance will be fully utilized during the current fiscal year.

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Cash provided by operating activities amounted to $2,486,000 for the six
months ended January 1, 2000, in comparison to $2,850,000 for the same period a
year earlier. The decrease reflects improved profitability in the period offset
by a reduction in accounts payable as well as increased payments for income
taxes and accrued payroll. Cash used for investing activities totaled $356,000
for the six months ended January 1, 2000, compared to $121,000 for the same
period in the prior year. Cash provided by financing activities amounted to
$19,658,000 in comparison to $299,000 for the same period a year earlier. This
reflects the receipts of the proceeds from the issuance of common stock
amounting to $20,292,000 primarily resulting from our July, 1999 stock offering.

    Cash and cash equivalents at January 1, 2000, increased by $21,239,000 to
$31,294,000 from $10,055,000 at July 3, 1999, due principally to cash received
in our stock offering completed in July, 1999.

    We completed a public offering in July, 1999 of 2,430,000 shares of common
stock, of which 1,499,854 shares were sold by us and 930,146 shares were sold by
certain selling shareholders. $19,805,573 of proceeds was received by the
Company from the sale of its shares in cash after underwriting discounts upon
completion of the offering. We incurred approximately $585,000 of issuance costs
in conjunction with the offering, of which $411,796 were paid in the current
fiscal year.

    In relation to our eight-year, 9.75% subordinated notes, a total of $113,000
has been accreted to the notes through January 1, 2000, resulting in a long term
liability balance of $2,977,000 at quarter end. A total of $48,000 of interest
expense has been recorded in the current fiscal year, of which $24,000 was
recorded in the three month period ended January 1, 2000.

    On November 23, 1999, the Board of Directors approved an open market stock
repurchase program that enables us to purchase up to 500,000 shares of its
common stock. The program is in effect for two years, from December 13, 1999 to
December 12, 2001, and may be suspended or discontinued by the Board at any
time. All such purchases will be transacted on the Nasdaq Stock Market at
prevailing open market prices and will be paid for with general corporate funds.
Any such purchases will be accounted for at cost and held as treasury stock. The
Board has delegated to the discretion of Candela's Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer the authority to determine the timing of the repurchase
program's commencement and the timing of any subsequent purchases. To date, no
stock repurchases of the Company's stock have occurred.

    On December 1, 1999, the Company's revolving bank line of credit expired. No
borrowings were outstanding at the time of expiration.

    On January 12, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 3-for-2
stock split, payable in the form of a 50% stock dividend. All shareholders of
record at the close of business on January 28, 2000 will receive one additional
share for every two shares of common stock owned. The additional shares will be
distributed to shareholders on or about February 28, 2000. Upon completion of
this stock dividend, Candela will have approximately 11 million shares of common
stock outstanding.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board "FASB" issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133") "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including

                                       14

                              CANDELA CORPORATION

ITEM 2-- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively
referred to as "derivatives"), and for hedging activities. SFAS 133 requires
companies to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities, with the
instruments measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value,
gains or losses, depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting
designation. Originally, the statement had been effective for all fiscal
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June 1999, the FASB
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 ("SFAS 137"),
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which postponed
the adoption of SFAS 133 until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. As
such, the Company plans to implement SFAS 133 for our fiscal year 2001.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

    To date, the Company has not experienced any disruptions related to the
Year 2000 issue, either in-house or with suppliers, distributors, or customers.
In addition, we have questioned representatives of Litton Airtron Synoptics, our
sole supplier for Alexandrite rods, and PSS, a major distributor, and have
reviewed publicly available disclosures relating to PSS. Based on this review,
we are not aware of any information to indicate that Litton or PSS have
experienced or will experience any substantial Year 2000 problems. In addition,
we have conducted an informal survey of our other suppliers, significant
customers, and business partners. This survey indicates that many of our
suppliers and customers are Year 2000 compliant, and we have not experienced any
disruptions to date. We are not, however, in a position to verify the accuracy
or completeness of the information we receive from third parties.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

    This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements
including, without limitation, statements concerning the future of the industry,
product development, business strategy (including the possibility of future
acquisitions), anticipated operational and capital expenditure levels, continued
acceptance and growth of our products, and dependence on significant customers
and suppliers. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking
statements that we have made based on our current expectations, estimates and
projections about our industry, operations, and prospects, not historical facts.
We have made these forward-looking statements pursuant to the provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be
identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will,"
"believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend", "continue" or other
similar expressions. These statements discuss future expectations, and may
contain projections of results of operations or of financial condition or state
other forward-looking information. These forward-looking statements are subject
to business and economic risks and uncertainties, and our actual results of
operations may differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include,
but are not limited to, those discussed in "Cautionary Statements" in our annual
report filed on Form 10-K dated October 1, 1999, as well as other risks and
uncertainties referenced in this Quarterly Report. These risks include, but are
not limited to, the following:

    - Our dependence on GentleLASE increases our susceptibility to competitive
      changes in the marketplace.

    - Our exclusive rights to the DCD technology could become non-exclusive
      because our amended license agreement requires us to make commercially
      reasonable efforts to conclude the sublicense

ITEM 2-- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

     agreements with third parties, or we could lose rights to the DCD
        technology altogether if a court challenge to the underlying patent is
        successful.

    - Because we derive more than half of our revenue from international sales,
      we are susceptible to currency fluctuations, negative economic changes
      taking place in foreign marketplaces, and other risks associated with
      conducting business overseas.

    - The failure to obtain alexandrite rods for the GentleLASE and ALEXlazr
      from our sole supplier would impair our ability to manufacture and sell
      these laser systems, which accounted for more than half or our revenue in
      recent periods.

    - The cost of closing our skin care centers may be higher than management
      has estimated to date, and higher actual costs would negatively impact our
      operating results.

    - Claims by others that our products infringe their patents or other
      intellectual property rights could prevent us from manufacturing and
      selling some of our products or require us to incur substantial costs from
      litigation or development of non-infringing technology.

ITEM 3--QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    At January 1, 2000, the Company held foreign currency forward contracts with
notional value totaling approximately $4,442,000 compared to forward contracts
with a value of $1,463,000 held at December 26, 1998. The present contracts have
maturity dates prior to April 28, 2000. The carrying and net fair value of these
contracts at January 1, 2000, was $0 and $3,551, respectively, compared to $0
and ($70,000) respectively, at December 26, 1998.

                           PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    On March 5, 1999, New Star Lasers, Inc. and its subsidiary Laser
Aesthetics, Inc. filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern
District of California against The Regents of the University of California (the
"Regents"), the Beckman Laser Institute and Medical Clinic ("Beckman") and
Candela. In the complaint, New Star Lasers sought a declaration that its
technology does not infringe the Regents' patent pertaining to dynamic cooling
technology to which we are a licensee, or in the alternative that the patent is
invalid and not infringed by the plaintiff's technology. The complaint also
included various tort claims against us and contract-related claims against the
Regents and Beckman. The complaint asserted that we interfered with the
licensing of the dynamic cooling technology to the plaintiffs. The complaint
sought unspecified general, special, punitive and exemplary damages plus costs
and attorneys' fees against Candela as well as the "disgorgement" of any benefit
received by Candela as a result of the alleged receipt of any of New Star
Lasers' trade secrets from Beckman and the Regents. We intend to defend this
matter vigorously. Both Candela and the Regents moved to dismiss the complaint.
On August 27, 1999, the court granted in part both Candela's and the Regents'
motion, but gave New Star Lasers permission to file an amended complaint. On
October 25, 1999, New Star Lasers filed a second amended complaint, to which we
filed an answer denying New Star's material allegations and raising several
affirmative defenses. We believe that an adverse outcome of New Star Lasers'
tort claims against Candela will not have a material adverse effect on our
operations and financial condition. However, if New Star Lasers were to obtain a
declaration that the Regents' patent under which the DCD was developed is
invalid or unenforceable, Candela's rights to the DCD technology pursuant to the
license agreement could no longer be exclusive, which could aversely impact our
operations and financial condition. The Regents have requested that we indemnify
them in connection with this litigation pursuant to the license agreement
between the Regents and Candela. We have rejected this request. On or about
February 2, 2000 the Company reached an agreement in principle conditionally to
settle New Star's claims against the Company. In connection with this agreement,
on February 2, 2000 Candela granted New Star a sublicense to the use of DCD
technology for certain laser systems that New Star manufactures. Pursuant to the
parties' settlement in principle, the terms of which are currently being
finalized, New Star will dismiss the claims it has asserted against the Company.
Both the sublicense and settlement of the litigation are contingent on a
favorable outcome to Candela's arbitration against the Regents, which is
described below.

    By letter dated September 17, 1999, The Regents purported to give Candela
notice of alleged default under the parties' exclusive license agreement, as
amended ("the Agreement") on the grounds (1) that Candela has failed to make
necessary royalty payments to The Regents pursuant to the Agreement; and
(2) that Candela has not complied with its sublicensing obligations under the
Agreement. The Regents informed Candela that it has sixty days in which to cure
the alleged defaults. Candela maintains and has informed The Regents that it is
in full compliance with each of the terms of the Agreement, including with
respect to its royalty payments to The Regents and its sublicensing efforts. On
September 28, 1999, we commenced an arbitration before the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA") against the Regents in which we seek a declaration that we
are not in default of any of our obligations under the Agreement. On
October 27, 1999, the Regents issued another notice by which it purported to
terminate our right to sublicense the DCD technology. This notice is also the
subject of the AAA arbitration. On November 9, 1999, the arbitrator issued an
interim order of protection prohibiting the Regents from issuing a notice of
termination or licensing the DCD technology to any third party until ten days
after the award of judgment in the arbitration. The arbitration hearing is
currently scheduled for May 1, 2000. We believe that an adverse outcome of the
arbitration with The Regents could have a material adverse effect on our
operations and financial condition, including losing our rights to the DCD
technology and/or being required to pay substantially higher future and
historical royalty payments to the Regents for the use of

                                       17

                              CANDELA CORPORATION

ITEM 1--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (CONTINUED)

DCD technology. Also on October 27, 1999, The Regents sent us another notice of
default arising out of its claim that we have refused to indemnify The Regents
in connection with the New Star litigation. The notice gives us sixty days to
cure the alleged default. We intend to contest this notice of default. Should we
not cure the alleged default or not be successful in challenging the alleged
default, there could be a material adverse effect on our operations and
financial condition, including losing our rights to the DCD technology. In
response to the second October 27, 1999 notice of default, Candela commenced a
declaratory judgment action against The Regents in a Massachusetts Superior
Court. The Regents removed the case to the United States District Court for the
District of Massachusetts. On or about December 23, 1999, the parties filed a
stipulation and joint motion requesting that the action be stayed pending the
arbitration and that The Regents be precluded form terminating the Agreement on
account of any alleged failure to indemnify the Regents until conclusion of the
arbitration. The Court granted the parties' motion on December 29, 1999. The
parties have also agreed to attempt to mediate all of their outstanding
disputes. A mediation is scheduled for February 18, 2000.

    From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings
incidental to its business. The Company believes that none of such other
presently pending legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon its
financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

ITEM 4--SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

    On January 20, 2000, the Company held its Annual Shareholder meeting. At the
