NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Hologic, Inc. (the
Company) presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly
reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information
and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the
year ended September 27, 1997, included in the Company's Form 10-
K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
December 23, 1997.
The consolidated balance sheet as of March 28, 1998, the
consolidated statements of income for the three and six months
ended March 28, 1998 and March 29, 1997 and the consolidated
statements of cash flows for the six months ended March 28, 1998
and March 29, 1997, are unaudited but, in the opinion of
management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal,
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of
results for these interim periods.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended
March 28, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 26, 1998.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect
the application of certain accounting policies described in this
and other notes to the consolidated financial statements.
(a) Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of
cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of the
following:
March 28, September 27,
1998 1997
-------- -------
Raw materials and work-in-process..... $14,743,288 $9,967,707
Finished goods........................ 3,698,013 3,236,821
----------- ----------
$18,441,301 $13,204,528
=========== ===========
Work-in-process and finished goods inventories consist of
material, labor and manufacturing overhead.
(b) Foreign Currency Translation:
Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries
are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at
the end of the period, and revenues and expenses are translated
at the weighted average exchange rate in effect during the
period. Gains and losses from foreign currency translation are
included in the stockholders' equity section under cumulative
translation adjustment. Foreign currency transaction gains and
losses arising primarily from settlement of sales transactions
with the Company's foreign subsidiaries are included in results
of operations. Transaction losses of $50,139 and $74,995 for the
three and six months ended March 28, 1998, respectively, and
transaction gains of $83,378 and $1,054 for the three and six
months ended March 29, 1997, respectively, are included in other
expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
(c) Earnings Per Share:
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128-
Earnings per Share. This standard is effective for fiscal
periods ending after December 15, 1997 and requires presentation
of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the
Consolidated Statements of Income. These financial statements
have been prepared and presented based on the new standard.
Prior period amounts have been restated to conform to current
year presentation. Anti-dilutive weighted shares of 425,862 and
305,295 for the three and six months ended March 28, 1998,
respectively, and 144,752 and 131,179, for the three and six
months ended March 29, 1997, respectively, have been excluded
from the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential
common shares outstanding.
Basic and diluted share amounts are as follows:

</TABLE>
(3) Line of Credit
The Company has an international line of credit with a bank
for the equivalent of $3,000,000, which bears interest at PIBOR
plus 1.50%. The borrowings under this line are denominated in
the local currency of its European subsidiaries and are primarily
used by these subsidiaries to settle intercompany sales.
(4) Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company sells certain of its systems to a leasing
company, which in turn leases the systems to third parties. The
leasing company accounted for 38% of DXA product sales in the six
months ended March 28, 1998.
(5) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130 Reporting
Comprehensive Income and SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information. Both SFAS No. 130 and
SFAS No. 131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The Company believes that the adoption of
these new accounting standards will not have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.
(6) Patent Rights Acquisition
In January 1998, the Company made the final payment with
respect to the acquisition of certain patent rights pursuant to
an agreement entered into in fiscal 1992 and amended in May 1993.
The Company paid $1,086,250 (the equivalent of 55,000 shares of
common stock) for these patent rights. The additional cost of
these patent rights will be amortized over the remaining expected
life of approximately five years.
PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Continued)
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
HOLOGIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Results of Operations
The Company's results of operations have and may continue to
be subject to significant quarterly variation. The results for a
particular quarter may vary due to a number of factors, including
the introduction of new products or product enhancements by the
Company or its competitors, the timing of FDA approvals or
clearances for such introductions, the overall state of health
care and cost containment efforts, the development status and
demand for drug therapies to treat osteoporosis, the status and
amount of reimbursement for approved procedures, the use of mini
c-arms in minimally-invasive surgical procedures, economic
conditions in the Company's markets, the timing of orders, the
timing of expenditures in anticipation of future sales, the mix
of products sold by the Company, and pricing and other
competitive conditions.
On March 13, 1998, the Company received approval from the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its pre-market application
for the Sahara Clinical Bone Sonometer. Sahara is an innovative
ultrasound device that estimates bone density of the heel.
Sahara results can be used as an aid to physicians in the
diagnosis of osteoporosis and in estimating a patient's risk for
future fracture. It is the first device of its type approved for
sale in the United States, and will be sold into the primary care
physician market by Physician Sales and Service, Inc., the
Company's exclusive distributor for this market segment. The
Company has increased certain administrative, sales and support
functions for this product with the belief that Sahara will
contribute materially to the Company's revenue and earnings. Any
delay in sales of Sahara due to customer acceptance, competitive
products, reimbursement concerns or other unfavorable business
developments could have an adverse impact on current and future
results.
Revenues. Total revenues for the second quarter of fiscal
1998 increased 8% to $30,197,233 from $27,999,888 in the second
quarter of fiscal 1997. Total revenues for the current six month
period increased 2% to $56,317,881 from $55,109,631 for the first
six months of fiscal 1997. This increase was primarily due to
(i) an increase in the total number of domestic DXA bone
densitometer product shipments and (ii) an increase in the total
number of international Sahara (the Company's ultrasound bone
sonometer) product shipments. These increases were partially
offset by a decrease in DXA bone densitometers sold in Asia,
especially in Japan. In the United States, the increase in the
number of DXA bone densitometers sold was partially offset by
lower average selling prices primarily attributable to a shift in
sales to the lower priced QDR-1000plus. In the current six month
period, the Company's QDR-1000plus comprised 60% of total DXA
densitometer sales compared to only 15% for the first six months
of last year. The shift to this system from the more fully
featured ACCLAIM series was driven by increased sales to the
primary care market in the United States. The Company began
actively selling to this new market in July 1997. ACCLAIM sales
to the hospital and radiology markets were lower than in the
previous year which the Company attributes in part to confusion
over the HCFA approved reimbursement rates for bone densitometry.
Although the actual rates for 1998 increased to $131 from $121,
the preliminary rate that was published in mid - 1997 was
significantly lower than the current rate. Other revenues
decreased slightly for the current three month period, as
compared to the same period of the previous year, due to a
decrease in revenue relating to medical data management services
provided to pharmaceutical companies to assist in the collection
and monitoring of clinical trial data. Other revenues increased
slightly for the current six month period, as compared to the
same period of the previous year, due to an increase in royalties
from the license of the Company's technology to Vivid
Technologies, Inc. which was partially offset by a decrease in
medical data management revenue.
Total revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 1998
increased 16% from $26,120,648 in the immediately preceeding
quarter primarily due to an increase in the number of DXA systems
sold in the United States to the primary care market.
In the first six months of fiscal 1998, approximately 71% of
product sales were generated in the United States, 18% in Europe,
7% in other international markets, and 4% in Asia. In the first
six months of fiscal 1997, approximately 57% of product sales
were generated in the United States, 21% in Europe, 14% in Asia,
and 8% in other international markets.
The number of x-ray bone densitometers sold by the Company
reached record levels as interest in bone diseases, such as
osteoporosis, has grown, especially in the primary care market in
the United States, as new drug therapies have become available to
treat these diseases and as the use of DXA systems to measure
bone density has become more widespread.
Costs and Expenses. The cost of product sales increased
as a percentage of product sales to 50% in the current three and
six month periods of fiscal 1998 from 46% in the same three and
six month periods of fiscal 1997. In the current quarter and six
month periods, these costs increased as a percentage of product
sales primarily due to a shift in the product sales mix to the
lower gross margin QDR-1000plus DXA bone densitometers. Sales of
the QDR-1000plus to the primary care market in the United States
increased dramatically in these periods and offset a slowdown in
sales of the higher gross margin ACCLAIM densitometers sold to
the hospital and radiology markets.
Research and development expenses increased 14% to
$2,505,675 (8% of total revenues) in the current quarter from
$2,205,646 (8% of total revenues) in the second quarter of fiscal
1997. For the current six month period, research and development
expenses increased 23% to $4,844,676 (9% of total revenues) from
$3,937,086 (7% of total revenues) for the first six months of
1997. The increase in research and development expenses in 1998
is primarily due to the addition of engineering personnel and
outside consultants working on the development of new products.
Selling and marketing expenses increased 73% to $7,839,985
(27% of product sales) in the current quarter from $4,523,467
(17% of product sales) in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. For
the current six month period, selling and marketing expenses
increased 60% to $14,589,022 (27% of product sales) from
$9,092,197 (17% of product sales) for the first six months of
1997. The increase in selling and marketing expenses in 1998 is
primarily due to an increase in sales commissions based on the
higher sales volume in areas where commissions are generally
paid, particularly in the United States.
General and administrative expenses decreased 18% to
$2,282,048 (8% of total revenues) in the current quarter from
$2,791,206 (10% of total revenues) in the second quarter of
fiscal 1997. During the first six months of fiscal 1998, general
and administrative expenses decreased 20% to $4,577,197 (8% of
total revenues) from $5,698,647 (10% of total revenues) in the
first six months of 1997. These decreases in general and
administrative expenses in fiscal 1998 were primarily due to
certain efficiencies achieved in connection with the integration
of FluoroScan.
Interest Income. Interest income increased to $1,475,978 in
the current quarter from $1,255,456 in the same quarter of fiscal
1997 and increased to $2,781,071 in the current six month period
from $2,332,415 in the comparable period in fiscal 1997 as the
Company held a higher investment base than in the prior year.
The company also increased the number of long-term receivables to
Latin American customers resulting in additional interest income.
Other (Expense) Income. The Company incurred other expense
of $113,129 for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to
recognizing other income of $54,736 for the second quarter of
fiscal 1997. For the first six months of fiscal 1998 and 1997,
the Company incurred other expense of $202,452 and $61,595,
respectively. In the current quarter and six month periods,
these expenses were primarily attributable to interest costs on
the line of credit established for use by the Company's European
subsidiaries to borrow funds in their local currencies to pay for
intercompany sales, thereby reducing the foreign currency
exposure on those transactions and, to a lesser extent, to
foreign currency transaction losses. For the second quarter of
fiscal 1997, other income was primarily related to foreign
currency exchange gains arising from the Company's U.S. dollar
denominated sales transactions to its European subsidiaries
partially offset by interest costs on the line of credit. For
the first six months of fiscal 1997, these expenses were
primarily attributable to interest costs on the line of credit.
To the extent that foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate in
the future, the Company may be exposed to continued financial
risk. Although the Company has established a borrowing line
denominated in the two foreign currencies (the French Franc and
the Belgian Franc) in which the subsidiaries currently conduct
business to minimize this risk, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful or can fully hedge its outstanding
exposure.
Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's effective tax
rate was approximately 36% in the first six months of fiscal 1998
and 1997. The effective tax rate is less than the combined
Federal and state statutory rates due primarily to the favorable
Federal and state tax treatment afforded the Company's foreign
sales corporation and the favorable state tax treatment of
certain of the Company's interest income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 28, 1998, working capital was approximately $113
million, and cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
totaled $87 million. The Company has funded its operations
primarily through cash flows from operations and the issuance of
securities. The cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments balance increased approximately $2.8 million from
September 27, 1997 primarily due to operating activities which
included net income of $4.6 million and an increase in the
Company's deferred revenue, which were partially offset by an
increase in inventory. This increase in inventory is primarily
related to increased production of Sahara. The Company finances
certain sales to Latin America over a two-to-three year time-
frame. At March 28, 1998, the Company had long-term accounts
receivable outstanding of approximately $3.7 million relating to
these sales which were included in other assets. Also included
in other assets were marketable securities with maturities
exceeding one year totaling $9 million. As of March 28, 1998,
the Company has not experienced any significant change in these
receivables, however, the economic and currency related
uncertainties in these countries may increase the likelihood of
non-payment. In the first six months of 1998, the Company
purchased approximately $1.1 million of property and equipment,
primarily computers and other equipment associated with the
hiring of additional personnel.
The Company does not currently have any significant capital
commitments and believes that existing sources of liquidity and
funds expected to be generated from operations will provide
adequate cash to fund the Company's anticipated working capital
and other cash needs for the foreseeable future.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130 Reporting
Comprehensive Income and SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information. Both SFAS No. 130 and
SFAS No. 131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The Company believes that the adoption of
these new accounting standards will not have a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.
Year 2000 Issue
The Company is currently working to resolve the potential
impact of the year 2000 on the processing of date-sensitive
information by the Company's computerized information systems and
by the Company's products. The year 2000 problem is the result
of computer programs being written using two digits (rather than
four) to define the applicable year. Any of the company's
programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date
using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000, which
could result in miscalculation or system failures. Based on
preliminary information, costs of addressing potential problems
are not currently expected to have a material adverse impact on
the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
flows in future periods. However, failure of the Company, its
customers or vendors to resolve such processing issues in a
timely manner, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.
