NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
The accompanying interim financial statements and related notes should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report and Form 10-K.
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements included herein have
been prepared by the Company, 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 condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These Condensed Consolidated
Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements included herein reflect,
in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily only of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the results for the
interim period. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire
year ending December 31, 1996.
2. PILLAR POINT PARTNERS ROYALTIES:
The Company received its first report of royalty distribution from Pillar Point
Partners in the first quarter of 1996. The Company records a royalty payable to
Pillar Point Partners when VISX systems and VisionKey cards are sold in the
United States. The Company records royalty revenue as service and other revenues
when Pillar Point Partners reports the amount of royalty distribution, net of
expenses, due the Company.
3. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE:
Earnings per share was computed based on the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding during 1996. Common share equivalents
were calculated using the treasury stock method, and represent dilutive shares
issuable upon the exercise of stock options.
Net loss per share was computed based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during 1995. Common equivalent shares were excluded from the
computation since their effect would be to reduce the net loss per share amount.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. The Company's actual results of operations could differ
materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result
of certain factors, including those factors set forth below and described in
greater detail in the Company's 1995 Annual Report and Form 10-K. The
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations should be read in conjunction with the Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report and Form 10-K.
OVERVIEW
Since its inception, VISX has been engaged in the design and development of
proprietary technologies and systems for laser vision correction ("LVC") and has
been manufacturing such systems since 1987. In March 1995, the Company
introduced a new, streamlined model of the VISX System. The FDA approved
applications for use of the VISX System for PTK on September 29, 1995 and for
PRK treatment of low to moderate myopia on March 26, 1996.
Notwithstanding approval by the FDA and increases in sales, the Company's future
growth and profitability cannot be predicted with certainty and will be
influenced by a variety of factors. These include the extent to which LVC is
broadly accepted in the United States and key international markets targeted by
the Company, the degree to which Pillar Point Partners is successful in
generating royalty income from patent rights and defending against legal
challenges relating to its structure and operation, developments in patent
litigation both in support of the Company's patents and in defense of claims of
infringement such as the Azema patent suit brought against the Company by Summit
Technology, and competition from other vision correction products and procedures
which are currently in use or may be developed in the future.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
Product sales increased 464% in the quarter ended March 31, 1996 over the
comparable period in 1995 due to the FDA's approval of the Company's PMA
application for use of the VISX System (for PTK on September 29, 1995 and for
PRK treatment of low to moderate myopia on March 26, 1996). This allowed the
Company to sell VISX Systems in the United States, which generated an increase
in unit sales compared to the prior year. In addition, average selling prices
were higher in 1996 because the Company was selling through its own direct sales
force in the United States, as contrasted to 1995 when the Company was only
selling outside the United States at lower prices through its distributor,
Alcon.
Until May 26, 1995, Alcon was a related party to the Company by virtue of its
representation on the Company's board of directors. Alcon's representatives did
not stand for reelection at the Company's 1995 stockholders' meeting.
Accordingly, Alcon was no longer considered a related party after that point.
Certain portions of the derivative litigation brought by stockholders of the
Company relate to Alcon's marketing of the VISX System. On January 9, 1996 the
California Superior Court approved a settlement reached by Alcon, VISX and the
other participants in VISX's stockholder derivative litigation pursuant to
which, among other things, the domestic and international marketing agreement
between VISX and Alcon was terminated. This settlement became effective on March
12, 1996.
Page 7
<PAGE>
Service and other revenues increased 105% in the quarter ended March 31, 1996
over the comparable period in 1995 due to the continued growth in the installed
base of VISX Systems, royalty license revenue and Pillar Point Partners royalty
revenue.
The gross profit margin increased to 50.1% in the quarter ended March 31, 1996
from 33.0% in the comparable period in 1995 mainly as the result of higher
average selling prices and lower overhead cost per unit due to increased
production. Higher royalty revenues also contributed to the increase in gross
profit margin as there are no costs associated with these revenues.
Marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 76% in the quarter
ended March 31, 1996 over the comparable period in 1995 due mainly to two
factors. The Company created its own direct sales force to replace Alcon and
incurred costs preparing to directly market the VISX System for LVC. Legal
expenses were higher than in the prior year due to litigation and other matters
primarily related to the Company's patents.
Research, development and regulatory costs were down 31% in the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 over the comparable period in 1995 when the Company incurred
incremental costs for staff, consultants and other regulatory expenses necessary
to pursue PMA applications filed with the FDA.
Other income increased 292% in the quarter ended March 31, 1996 over the
comparable period in 1995 due to higher interest income generated by funds
raised in the November 1995 common stock offering.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Additional inventories were purchased in preparation for an anticipated increase
in sales resulting from FDA approval of the VISX System for PRK treatment of low
to moderate myopia. Higher sales in the quarter contributed to the increase in
accounts receivable. Cash received as deposits accompanying orders for VISX
Systems, recorded as accrued liabilities, more than offset increases in
inventories and accounts receivable. Purchases of short-term investments reflect
reinvestment of the proceeds from maturities of short-term investments and
investment of cash and cash equivalents in short-term investments.
The Company anticipates that its current cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, as well as anticipated cash flows from operations, will be
sufficient to cover working capital and capital equipment needs through the end
of 1997. The Company may, however, seek to raise additional capital during this
time frame and any such additional capital may not be available on satisfactory
terms.
