MEDSTONE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
A. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY
Medstone International, Inc. ("Medstone") (formerly Cytocare, Inc.
prior to renaming on September 21, 1995) was incorporated in Delaware in
October 1984. The Company designs, manufactures and markets the Medstone
STS(TM) Shockwave Therapy System (the "System") for the noninvasive
disintegration of kidney stones in human patients. In addition to sales of the
System, Medstone generates recurring revenue from procedure fees and fee for
service arrangements for use of the System and from repairs and maintenance of
the Systems. The Company, as a manufacturer of capital medical devices, has
been vertically integrating by offering its medical devices directly to
providers on a fee-per-procedure basis. Medstone currently offers mobile
lithotripsy services using seven mobile systems in the Western United States on
a fee-per-procedure basis. Medstone intends to expand efforts to grow this
medical service side of its business.
On February 9, 1996, the Company distributed, as a dividend to its
shareholders of record on December 29, 1995, a stock dividend for each
outstanding share of the Company of one share of both Endocare, Inc. and UroGen
Corp., the Company's device and drug subsidiaries.
B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (which
consist only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation
of its consolidated financial position at March 31, 1996 and consolidated
results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain prior
period balances have been reclassified to conform with current period
presentation. Although the Company believes that the disclosures in these
financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted and should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited financial statements included in the Company's 1995 Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March
28, 1996. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
C. PER SHARE INFORMATION
Per share information is presented in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations based upon the weighted average number of common and
common equivalent shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares result from the
assumed exercise of
- 7 -
<PAGE> 8
outstanding dilutive securities when applying the treasury stock method. Fully
diluted per share information is not presented for periods in which the effect
is antidilutive.
D. INVENTORIES
At March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, inventories consisted of the
following:

========== ==========
</TABLE>
E. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
115 as of January 1, 1994. The effect of the adoption is that the Company
classifies its entire investment portfolio as available-for-sale. Accordingly,
unrealized holding gains and losses on short-term investments are carried as a
separate component of stockholder's equity.
F. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is a defendant in two related class action lawsuits filed
by two shareholders of the Company alleging that adverse material information
was not disclosed at the time of the initial public offering and in subsequent
periods. On May 4, 1992, the district court granted summary judgment in one of
the actions in favor of the Company on all claims. On July 9, 1992, the
district court granted the Company's motion to dismiss the second action. In
October 1994, the Company received the opinion of the Ninth Circuit of Appeals
affirming in part and reversing in part the United States District Court's
decision granting summary judgment in favor of the Company and several
officers. The complaints allege principally that adverse material information
was not disclosed at the time of the initial public offering in June 1988. In
October 1995, the Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal of the case and
returned the case to district court for scheduling, which was set for May 21,
1996 and has been moved to October 1, 1996. The Company intends to proceed to
trial on any remaining matters. The ultimate outcome of the litigation cannot
presently be determined. Accordingly, no provision for any liability that may
result has been made in the financial statements.
G. DISTRIBUTION TO SHAREHOLDERS
On December 19, 1995, the Company declared two stock dividends, payable
to stockholders of record on the close of trading on December 29, 1995. The two
dividends represent distribution of all the assets and operations of the
Endocare and Urogen divisions of the Company which were transferred to two
wholly-owned corporations, Endocare, Inc. and UroGen Corp. Effective with the
start of business on January 1, 1996 these two companies are no longer part of
the Medstone International operations, as Medstone distributed to its
shareholders almost all outstanding common stock of each company,
- 8 -
<PAGE> 9
retaining only 100,000 shares of each company. On February 9, 1996, the
Company distributed 5,516,528 shares of each company and these two companies
became separate publicly-held companies.
Endocare develops, manufacturers and markets devices to treat
urological diseases. Endocare began as a department and was later formed as a
division of Medstone International, Inc. to continue the research and
development efforts of Medstone in the treatment of urological disorders and to
focus on new product development. In addition to enhancing Medstone's existing
lithotripsy products, the research and development conducted by Endocare has
produced several products outside of Medstone's core business of lithotripsy.
Products include its Prolase(R) side firing laser catheter and electrosurgical
devices designed to treat urological tissue and its CryoCare(TM) System, which
is currently in clinical trials.
Urogen was formed from the medical biology and small molecule
pharmaceuticals division of Medstone to continue the effort, started in 1991,
to develop pharmaceuticals to treat diseases in urology, with a particular
interest in prostate cancer.
Medstone, as part of the distribution of Endocare, forgave
intercompany debt of $2,831,364 and contributed $500,000 in cash and net other
assets of $803,133 to Endocare. As part of the distribution of Urogen,
Medstone forgave intercompany debt of $3,888,875 and contributed $500,000 in
cash and net other assets of $163,082 to UroGen.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the Company's audited financial statements and Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 28, 1996.
RESULTS OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS
- ----------------------------------
GENERAL
Medstone manufactures, markets and maintains lithotripters, and is
expanding its Fee-for-Service Program to supply lithotripsy equipment to
providers on a per procedure basis. To date, the Company's consolidated
revenues have come primarily from Medstone's lithotripsy business. On February
9, 1996, the Company distributed two stock dividends of 5,516,528 shares of
Endocare, Inc. and UroGen Corp. to its stockholders of record on December 29,
1995. The two dividends represent distribution of all the assets and
operations of the Endocare and Urogen divisions of the Company which were
transferred to the two corporations. Effective with the start of business on
January 1, 1996 these two companies are no longer a part of the Medstone
International operations, but are separate, publicly-held companies. Medstone
retained only 100,000 shares of each company.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1995
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company recognized revenue of $4.1 million for the first quarter of
1996, or a 15% decrease, compared to $4.8 million during the first quarter of
1995. Equipment revenues decreased by 40% due to shipment of two systems in
the first quarter of 1996 compared to three systems shipped in the first
quarter of 1995. The recurring revenue stream from laser catheters decreased
by $316,000 as the Company spun off the Endocare, Inc. subsidiary effective
January 1, 1996 and no longer records any revenues from the laser catheter
business line. Partially offsetting these declines are a 16% increase in the
revenues from the Company's maintenance, procedure and fee-for-service
activities as the number of patients treated on the Medstone lithotripters in
the United States increased by 14% in the current period from the comparable
period in the prior year.
Interest income decreased by 3% in the three months ended March 31,
1996 compared to the same period in 1995 due to a slight decrease in market
rates with comparable invested balances.
- 10 -
<PAGE> 11
Cost of sales on equipment sales and equipment upgrades increased to
53% of sales in the first quarter of 1996 compared to 42% of sales in the
comparable quarter in 1995 due to the mix of lithotripter units and average
unit selling prices. The cost of sales related to recurring revenue increased
to 46% of revenues in the first quarter of 1996 from 42% of revenues in the
first quarter of 1995 due to increased expenses to support the expansion of
mobile lithotripsy routes outside of the west coast. As a percentage of sales
revenue (excluding interest), the cost of equipment, procedures and maintenance
increased to 47% for the first quarter of 1996 compared to 42% for the first
quarter of 1995.
Research and development expenses decreased by 43% during the three
months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the corresponding period of 1995,
primarily due to a reduction in headcount due to the spin out of Endocare, Inc.
engineering group.
Selling expenses decreased by 4% in the first quarter of 1996 when
compared to 1995 primarily due to lower commission expenses only partially
offset by higher payroll and travel expenses due to an expanded mobile sales
force.
As a result of the Company's spin outs, general and administrative
expenses decreased by 31% in the first quarter of 1996 compared to the same
quarter in the prior year due to lower headcount and lower legal costs.
Legal expense increased during the first quarter of 1996 due to the
increase in legal costs incurred in preparation for trial of the class action
lawsuit filed against the Company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash and short-term investments of
approximately $16.3 million. These funds were generated from operating
activities and from the Company's initial public offering in June 1988, in
which 1,150,000 shares of common stock were issued for net proceeds of
approximately $12.9 million. Cash generated from the offering and from
operations financed substantial increases in levels of inventory and capital
assets and was used to retire debt.
The Company's long-term capital expenditure requirements will depend
upon numerous factors, including the progress of the Company's research and
development programs, the time required to obtain regulatory approvals, the
resources that the Company devotes to the development of self-funded products,
proprietary manufacturing methods and advanced technologies, the length and
outcome of its existing securities litigation, the ability of the Company to
obtain additional licensing arrangements and to manufacture products under
those arrangements, the demand for its products if and when approved and
possible acquisitions of products, technologies and companies.
- 11 -
<PAGE> 12
The Company believes that its existing working capital and funds
anticipated to be generated from operations will be sufficient to meet the cash
needs for continuation of its present operations during 1996.
