Notes to Financial Statements
1. General
The interim financial statements presented have been prepared by
Thermo Cardiosystems Inc. (the Company) without audit and, in the opinion
of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature
necessary for a fair statement of the financial position at June 29, 1996,
the results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended
June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995, and the cash flows for the six-month
periods ended June 29, 1996 and July 1, 1995. Interim results are not
necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The balance sheet presented as of December 30, 1995, has been derived
from the financial statements that have been audited by the Company's
independent public accountants. The financial statements and notes are
presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information
included in the annual financial statements and notes of the Company. The
financial statements and notes included herein should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30,
1995, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2. Stock Split
In April 1996, the Company declared a three-for-two stock split in the
form of a 50% stock dividend, payable on May 15, 1996, to shareholders of
record as of May 1, 1996. All share and per share information, except for
share information in the accompanying 1995 balance sheet, has been restated
to reflect the stock split.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Overview
The Company is a leader in the research, development, and manufacture
of both an air-driven and an electric implantable left ventricular-assist
system (LVAS). The Company is also the only company with U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) approval to commercially market an implantable LVAS.
Each system is designed to perform substantially all or part of the pumping
function of the left ventricle of the natural heart for patients suffering
from cardiovascular disease. Unlike total artificial heart systems, which
require removal of the natural heart, an LVAS allows the natural heart to
be left in place, preserving the heart's biological control mechanisms.
In October 1994, the Company announced that the FDA granted approval
for the commercial sale in the U.S. of the air-driven LVAS for use as a
bridge to heart transplant. With this approval, the air-driven system is
available for sale to cardiac centers throughout the U.S. The electric
version of the LVAS, which is currently being used in clinical trials in
7PAGE
<PAGE>
THERMO CARDIOSYSTEMS INC.
Overview (continued)
the U.S. for patients awaiting heart transplants, received the European
Conformity Mark (CE Mark) in August 1995, allowing commercial sale in all
European Community countries. The air-driven LVAS was granted the CE Mark
in early 1994. In late 1995, the FDA approved the protocol for conducting
clinical trials of the electric LVAS as an alternative to conventional
medical therapy in the U.S. In April 1996, the first implant under this
clinical trial was performed using the LVAS as an alternative for
nontransplant candidates. Until the Company's electric LVAS receives FDA
commercial approval, sales of the electric LVAS will fluctuate depending
upon the number of implants performed in ongoing studies at approved
clinical sites and the number of implementation programs sold.
In general, a profit cannot be earned from the sale of an LVAS until
approval of the device for commercial sale has been received from the FDA.
Until such approval is obtained, only the direct and indirect costs of the
LVAS can be recovered, which are included in the Company's revenues. With
the FDA's approval of the air-driven LVAS, the Company began earning a
profit on the sale of such systems in the fourth quarter of 1994.
Results of Operations
Second Quarter 1996 Compared With Second Quarter 1995
Revenues in the second quarter of 1996 increased 33% to $7,429,000
from $5,589,000 in the second quarter of 1995, primarily due to a 140%
increase in the number of LVAS implementation programs sold and, to a
lesser extent, a 26% increase in the number of air-driven and electric LVAS
units shipped during the second quarter of 1996 for subsequent implant.
The gross profit margin increased to 68% in the second quarter of 1996
from 58% in the second quarter of 1995, primarily due to an increase in
revenues from higher-margin implementation programs, an increase in sales
volume and, to a lesser extent, improvements in manufacturing efficiencies.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues increased to 21% in the second quarter of 1996 from 20% in the
second quarter of 1995 as a result of higher marketing expenses due to an
increase in the Company's sales force. Research and development expenses of
$931,000 and $912,000 in the second quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively,
reflect the Company's continued development of the LVAS.
Interest income increased to $1,342,000 in the second quarter of 1996
from $1,252,000 in the second quarter of 1995, primarily as a result of
higher invested balances.
The effective tax rates were 38% and 31% in the second quarter of 1996
and 1995, respectively. The effective tax rate in 1996 exceeded the
statutory federal income tax rate primarily due to the impact of state
income taxes. The effective tax rate in 1995 was below the statutory
federal income tax rate due to the recognition of remaining state tax loss
carryforwards.

THERMO CARDIOSYSTEMS INC.
First Six Months 1996 Compared With First Six Months 1995
Revenues in the first six months of 1996 increased 41% to $14,122,000
from $9,981,000 in the first six months of 1995, primarily due to a 59%
increase in the number of LVAS implementation programs sold and a 38%
increase in the number of air-driven and electric LVAS units shipped during
the first six months of 1996 for subsequent implant. Approximately 5% of
the increase in revenues was a result of a price increase that was phased
in during the fourth quarter of 1994 and the first half of 1995.
The gross profit margin increased to 66% in the first six months of
1996 from 57% in the first six months of 1995, primarily due to an increase
in revenues from higher-margin implementation programs, an increase in
sales volume, improvements in manufacturing efficiencies and, to a lesser
extent, the price increase.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues decreased to 20% in the first six months of 1996 from 21% in the
first six months of 1995, primarily due to the higher sales volume in 1996,
offset in part by higher marketing expenses due to an increase in the
Company's sales force. Research and development expenses of $1,793,000 and
$1,736,000 in the first six months of 1996 and 1995, respectively, reflect
the Company's continued development of the LVAS.
Interest income increased to $2,704,000 in the first six months of
1996 from $2,449,000 in the first six months of 1995, primarily as a result
of higher invested balances.
The effective tax rates were 35% and 33% in the first six months of
1996 and 1995, respectively. The effective tax rate in 1995 was below the
statutory federal income tax rate due to the recognition of remaining state
tax loss carryforwards.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital, including cash, cash equivalents, and short-term
available-for-sale investments, was $74,884,000 at June 29, 1996, compared
with $60,383,000 at December 30, 1995. Cash, cash equivalents, and short-
and long-term available-for-sale investments were $90,840,000 at June
29, 1996, compared with $90,474,000 at December 30, 1995. During the first
six months of 1996, $1,024,000 of cash was provided by operating
activities. The Company funded a $2,260,000 and a $3,081,000 increase in
accounts receivable and inventories, respectively, as a result of an
increase in sales volume during the first six months of 1996.
During the first six months of 1996, the Company expended $483,000 on
purchases of machinery, equipment and leasehold improvements. During the
remainder of 1996, the Company expects to make capital expenditures of
approximately $800,000, principally for manufacturing and tooling equipment
and leasehold improvements for the continued development and production of
the Company's LVAS. The Company believes that it has adequate resources to
meet its financial needs for the foreseeable future.
