NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements of Research Medical, Inc. and its
subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996, and for the three month period then
ended, were prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all
necessary adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) have been
made to the financial statements to present fairly its financial position,
results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the
respective complete years. The Company has an audited annual report for
the three years ended June 30, 1996. It is suggested that the attached
financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual report and the
financial statements and notes contained therein.

$10,327,327 $10,747,006
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share of Common Stock are computed on the basis of the
weighted average shares outstanding plus any common stock equivalents which
would arise from the exercise of stock options when material.
STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS
Interest paid was approximately $30,000 in fiscal 1997 and $35,000 in
fiscal 1996. Income taxes paid were $3,149,000 and $969,000 for the first
six months of fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively.
CONTINGENCIES
The Company acquired the distribution rights to market and sell certain
vascular blood flow monitors and sensors, and inventory necessary for
initial distribution of the product. When it was determined by the Company
that the acquired product did not meet the represented specifications and
the manufacturer would not acknowledge or make the required modifications,
the Company initiated litigation that alleges among other things breach of
contract for which the Company is seeking damages. The defendant has filed
a counterclaim also seeking damages. Management and the Company's legal
counsel intend to vigorously prosecute its claims and defend against the
defendants counterclaims. However, as the litigation is in an early stage,
no estimate can be made at this time of the potential outcome or potential
loss if any.
The Company is a party to certain legal actions which have arisen in the
ordinary course of business. After consultation with legal counsel,
management is of the opinion that there are no pending or threatened legal
matters which will have a material effect on the consolidated financial
position of the Company.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
PENDING ACQUISITION BY BAXTER
Research Medical, Inc. has entered into a definitive agreement to be
acquired by Baxter International, Inc. for $23.50 per common share payable
in Baxter common stock. The merger is subject to the approval of Research
Medical's stockholders, as well as the successful completion of all
pertinent regulatory matters. A special shareholders meeting will likely
be held in early March. Once the merger is consummated, Research Medical
will continue to operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of Baxter.
CONSOLIDATED OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS
Research Medical, Inc.'s earnings were $2,140,537 for the second quarter
of fiscal 1997, compared to net income of $2,137,973 recorded in the same
quarter of the prior year. Fully-diluted earnings per share were $.21 and
$.22 for these two periods, respectively. Total revenues decreased 7% from
$9,756,402 in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 to $9,068,338 in the same
quarter of fiscal 1997. This decrease is comprised of an 11% increase in
health care revenues and a 86% decrease in real estate revenues over the
comparable period in 1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the second
quarter of fiscal 1997 were 22% of health care revenues compared to 24% in
1996. SG&A has been compared only against health care revenues since there
are substantially no such costs charged against real estate operations and
the nature of real estate sales can result in unusual fluctuations in
ratios that are difficult to understand if SG&A is compared against total
revenue The growth in SG&A of 1% is lower than health care revenue growth
for the period providing positive leverage for the year. This modest
increase in SG&A expenses is reflective of the Company's desire to maintain
its current organizational structure to focus more of its resources into
several significant research and development projects.
Interest income and other has increased for the second three months of
1997 compared with 1996, reflecting more investable assets.
The combined effective federal and state income tax rate was
approximately 34% for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to 35% in
1996. The lower rate is due to a higher proportion of tax preferenced
investment holdings in the current year.
HEALTH CARE OPERATIONS
Net health care sales were $8,822,616 in the second quarter of 1997
compared to $7,939,228 in the same quarter of 1996, which represents a 11%
increase, paced by strong growth in Bypass Circuitry and Cardiac-Assist
catheters, Blood Management products, and Sterile Solution products.
Vascular products continued to post healthy increases in the shunt lines,
but these increases were mitigated by the effect of IschemiaAlerta product
returns.
The Company has new products in various stages of development and
approval which it believes will contribute to sales growth in the future.
Management also believes that it will continue to experience growth in the
sales of its existing cardiovascular surgical products.
Although the Company does not have foreign operations, it does sell
worldwide to specialized cardiovascular distributors and other customers in
foreign markets. Foreign sales increased by 35% in the second quarter over
the same quarter of the prior year. These sales represented 27% of sales
in the second quarter of 1997 compared to 22% in 1996. Domestically, sales
of cardiovascular products directly to U.S. hospitals increased 17%, while
sales by the Company to inventory stocking independent dealers declined 25%
reflecting reductions in their inventory investments in the quarter period
that the Baxter acquisition agreement was announced.
Gross margins were 62% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to
61% for the same quarter in the prior year. Gross margins improved
primarily as a result of the Company's efforts to automate portions of the
manufacturing process as well as from an improved sales mix of higher
margin products.
SG&A costs are discussed in the consolidated operating highlights since
direct SG&A costs related to real estate are insignificant which makes the
allocation of corporate SG&A costs between health care and real estate
arbitrary, impractical and difficult for investors to understand.
Management believes the comparison of total SG&A costs provides the
investor with a better understanding of its efforts to control costs.
The Company continues to invest resources in research and product
development to introduce new products. Royalty costs, which in many
respects represent the cost of acquired research and development
technologies, are recorded as a component of cost of sales. All R&D
expenses relate to the health care segment. These expenditures increased
28% from $477,172 in the second quarter of 1996 to $610,506 in the second
quarter of fiscal 1997. This increase reflects the Company's preparation
for new products, including a broad range of minimally invasive heart
surgery products, the embolectomy catheter with viewing capability, several
new vascular catheters, the Autologous Fibrinogen Delivery Kit, and the
Heparin Removal Device.
REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS
The Company continues to divest real estate assets as reasonable offers
are received.
Real estate sales in the second quarter and the first six months of 1997
include interest on real estate contracts and revenue from the sale of the
Company's interests in other real estate projects.
Gross margins for real estate were 80% for the second quarter of 1997
compared to 40% for the same period in 1996 and 34% for the first six
months of fiscal 1997 compared to 39% for the same period in fiscal 1996.
The gross margins are reflective of the Company's cost basis in the
specific properties sold and the related selling prices. The gross
margins, therefore, may vary significantly between specific pieces of
property sold.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's balance sheet continued to improve during the second quarter
of fiscal 1996. The following key measurements are indicative of the
excellent liquidity and strong financial position of the Company:
DEC. 31, June 30,
(In thousands except 1996 1996
ratios)
Cash and investments $11,460 $13,261
Working capital 32,976 29,805
Shareholders' equity 60,678 56,323
Current ratio 18:1 15:1
Cash and investments decreased from June 30, 1996 as a result of the
Company's operations. Funds used in investing activities were generated
from operations and the sale of common stock through the exercise of stock
options.
Accounts receivable increased by approximately $862,000 or 10% from June
30, 1996. This increase is consistent with sales growth during the first
six months of fiscal 1997.
Inventories decreased by approximately $420,000 or 4% from June 30,
1996. This decrease is comprised of lower raw materials and work in
process inventory levels partially offset by higher inventory levels in the
finished goods area. In the prior year, as the Company began producing
previously purchased raw material catheters, it continued purchasing a
sufficient quantity of catheters from its supplier assuring a flow of
finished goods products through the transition to in-house produced raw
material catheters resulting in a larger than normal supply of raw
materials in the prior year. As the transition is now complete,
significantly lower levels of purchased raw material catheters are held in
inventory. The increase in finished goods is due primarily to increased
health care sales.
Land held for resale increased $2,657,317 or 293% from June 30, 1996 as
the Company purchased several parcels of land, most of which are subject to
resale under existing purchase commitments.
There have been no other significant changes in capitalization or
financial status during the quarter that are not reflected in the financial
statements.
REGULATORY AND COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT
Products manufactured or sold by the Company in the United States are
subject to regulation by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), as well
as by other federal and state agencies. The FDA's approval process for new
drugs and devices is complex and often requires long-term and sustained
investment with no reliable basis for predicting the FDA's eventual
decision regarding market approval, nor how long the approval process may
continue. The FDA has the power to seize drugs or devices which it
considers to be adulterated or misbranded or to require the manufacturer to
remove them from the market and the power to publicize relevant facts.
Recent political and regulatory changes and uncertainties relating to
the health care industry may affect both the underlying demand for health
care products and the pricing of such products.
Historically, competition in the health care industry has been
characterized by the search for technological and therapeutic innovations
in the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of disease. The Company believes
that it has benefited from the technological advantages of certain of its
products. While competitors will continue to introduce new products in
competition with those sold by the Company, the Company believes that its
research and development efforts will permit it to remain competitive in
the product areas where it now competes; however, all medical technologies
are subject to the unanticipated risk of technological or scientific
progress which may subject the Company's products, both those already
manufactured and those in development, to the risk of technological
obsolescence.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Any statements made by the Company in this document that are forward
looking are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers of document are
cautioned that forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties
which may affect the Company's business prospects and performance. This
includes economic, competitive, governmental, technological, and other
factors discussed in this document and previous filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
