3.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

         The Company, in the normal course of business, is also subjected to
claims and litigation in the areas of product and general liability. Management
does not believe any of such claims will have a material impact on the Company's
financial position.

4.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

         Segment information is reported by the major product lines of the
Company: knee implants, hip implants, and tissue services. The "other" category
is for minor sales categories, such as instrument rental fees and shipping
charges. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based
on income from operations before taxes, interest income and expense, and
nonrecurring items. Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant.

         Summarized interim reporting information concerning the Company's
reportable segments is shown in the following table:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

      The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed
financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere herein, and the
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1998.

      The Company develops, manufactures, markets and sells orthopaedic implant
devices and related surgical instrumentation as well as provides OpteFORM(TM)
bone graft material to hospitals and physicians. Sales of hip implant products
historically accounted for most of the Company's revenues and profits; however,
since 1995, sales of knee implant products have accounted for an increasing
portion of its revenues and profits. The Company anticipates that sales of knee
implant products will continue to account for a major portion of its revenues
and profits, while service revenue from providing OpteFORM(TM) will continue to
increase as a percentage of sales.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information with
respect to the number of units of the Company's products sold and the dollar
amount and percentages of revenues derived from such sales (dollars in
thousands):

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1998

         Net sales increased by $2,358,516, or 42%, to $7,927,702 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1999 from $5,569,186 in the quarter ended September 30,
1998. The increase in net sales resulted from increases in unit and dollar
volume of all the Company's product lines. Sales of knee implant products
increased by 21% on a unit basis and by 20% on a dollar basis from the quarter
ended September 30, 1998 to the quarter ended September 30, 1999. Hip implant
sales increased by 26% on a unit basis and by 37% on a dollar basis from the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 to the quarter ended September 30, 1999.
Revenue from providing OpteFORM/trademark/ tissue service increased by $955,610
to $1,073,870 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $118,260 in the
quarter ended September 30, 1998. Sales of AcuDriver/trademark/ increased by
$28,137, or 51%, to $83,749 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $55,612
in the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The overall increase in knee sales
resulted from growth in all areas. Optetrak/registered trademark/ component
sales increased 20% to $4,866,257 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999, from
$4,062,323 in the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The overall increase in hip
sales is primarily the result increases in sales of MCS/registered trademark/
porous coated hip system which increase $224,842, or 59%, to $605,705 in the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $380,863 in the quarter ended September
30, 1998. International sales increased 18% to $1,078,890 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, from $919,327 in the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as
international distributors continued to enter new markets. In the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, the Company entered the Lebanese market. As a percentage of
sales, international sales decreased to 14% in the quarter ended September 30,
1999, as compared to 17% in the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The decrease
is primarily due to the growth in domestic sales, coupled with the initial
stocking order for the Company's Japanese distributor which occurred in the
comparable quarter ended September 30, 1998.

         Gross profit increased by $1,539,459, or 42%, to $5,196,495 in the
quarter ended September 30, 1999, from $3,657,036 in the quarter ended September
30, 1998. As a percentage of sales, gross profit remained constant at 66% in the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the quarter ended September 30,
1998.

         Total operating expenses increased by $1,159,138, or 41%, to $3,981,343
in the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $2,822,205 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1998. Sales and marketing expenses, the largest component of total
operating expenses, increased by $677,833, or 48%, to $2,095,674 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1999 from $1,417,841 in the quarter ended September 30,
1998. Sales and marketing expenses, as a percentage of sales, remained 26% in
the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998. The Company's
sales and marketing expenses are largely variable costs based on sales levels,
with the largest component being commissions.

         General and administrative expenses increased by $198,071, or 41%, to
$686,139 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $488,068 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1998. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative
expenses remained constant at 9% in the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and
September 30, 1998. Total general and administrative expenses increased in the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 primarily as a result of costs associated with
implementation of computer software improvements and legal fees.

         Research and development expenses increased by $69,902, or 20%, to
$414,238 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999 from $344,336 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1998. As a percentage of sales, research and development
expenses decreased from 6.2% of sales in the quarter ended September 30, 1998 to
5.2% in the quarter ended September 30, 1999. Although overall expenditures
increased, research and development expenses decreased as a percentate of sales
due to the overall increase in sales.

         Depreciation and amortization increased to $439,398 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1999, from $303,169 in the quarter ended September 30, 1998.
Depreciation expenses increased as a result of the increased investment in
surgical instrumentation and computer systems investments. During the quarter
ended September 30, 1999, $359,872 of surgical instruments and $105,026 of
computer systems and software were placed in service, resulting in the increase
in depreciation expense.

         Royalty expenses increased by $77,103 to $345,894 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, from $268,791 in the quarter ended September 30, 1998,
primarily as a result of growth in sales of knee implant products. As a
percentage of sales, royalty expenses decreased to 4.4% in the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, as compared to 4.8% in the quarter ended September 30, 1998.
This decrease, as a percentage of sales, is principally due to the cessation of
royalty payments on the Company's bipolar product line and a lower percentage of
sales from the knee product line, which incurs a higher royalty rate.

         The Company's income from operations increased by $380,321, or 46%, to
$1,215,152 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999, from $834,831 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1998. The increase was primarily due to the increase in
sales and gross profit, which outpaced the increase in operating expenses.

         The Company realized net interest expense of $39,102 in the quarter
ended September 30, 1999, as compared to $27,238 in the quarter ended September
30, 1998. The increase was the result of lower interest income from unexpended
revenue bond proceeds, which offset interest charges associated with the
industrial revenue bond (IRB) debt financing for construction of the Company's
facility. Interest expense of $53,564 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999
was partially offset by $14,462 of interest income.

         Income before provision for income taxes increased by $368,457, or 46%,
to $1,176,050 in the quarter ended September 30, 1999, from $807,593 in the
quarter ended September 30, 1998. The provision for income taxes was $464,540 in
the quarter ended September 30, 1999, compared to $318,461 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1998.

30, 1998, a 46% increase. As a percentage of sales, net income remained constant

basis and by 23% on a dollar basis from the nine months ended September 30,
1998, to the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase in hip sales was
primarily the result of an increase in MCS/registered trademark/ porous coated
hip system sales which increased to $1,690,926 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, from $1,285,937 in the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

months ended September 30, 1999, from $4,350,485 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. The increase in sales and marketing expenses is primarily a

months ended September 30, 1999, from $859,875 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Depreciation expenses increased as a result of the increased
investment in surgical instrumentation, production equipment, and computer
systems. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, $1,329,899 of surgical
instruments, $1,437,752 of production equipment, and $589,645 of computer

the nine months ended September 30, 1999, from $2,638,800 in the nine months
ended September 30, 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to the
increase in sales and gross profit, which increased more than operating
expenses.

         The Company realized net interest expense of $102,079 in the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to $35,678 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Interest expense of $161,774 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, was partially offset by $59,695 of interest income.

         The Company recognized a $13,778 gain associated with the sale of its
interest in Techmed, its Italian distributor, in the nine months ended September
30, 1998. There were no gains or losses in the nine months ended September 30,
1999.

         Income before provision for income taxes increased 43%, to $3,738,940

         As a result, the Company realized net income of $2,262,058 in the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $1,576,159 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, a 44% increase. As a percentage of sales, net income
increased to 9.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to
9.1% in the nine months ended September 30, 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily
through borrowings, the sale of equity securities and cash flow from operations.
At September 30, 1999, the Company had working capital of $16,858,056 compared
to $15,867,747 at December 31, 1998. The increase in working capital is
primarily the result of an increase in cash and accounts receivable. As a result
of operating, investing and financing activities, cash and cash equivalents at
September 30, 1999 increased to $1,589,832 from $662,652 at December 31, 1998.
The Company maintains a $6,000,000 credit facility with Merrill Lynch Business
Financial Services, Inc. which is secured by accounts receivable and inventory
and expires in June 2000. At September 30, 1999, there were no amounts
outstanding under the line of credit. The Company believes that funds from
operations and borrowings under its existing credit facilities will be
sufficient to satisfy its contemplated cash requirements for the following
twelve months.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES

         Operating activities provided net cash of $3,488,390 in the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 as compared to $509,288 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. The primary reason for the change was the decrease in
inventory of $695,520 in the nine months ended September 30, 1999, as compared
to the $920,549 increase in inventory in the nine months ended September 30,
1998. Income taxes payable, accounts payable and other liabilities increased
$1,025,335 in the nine months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to an
increase of $379,860 in the nine months ended September 30, 1998. Cash required
as a result of the increase in trade receivables was $1,768,600 for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1999, as compared to $1,320,387, for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1998.

<PAGE>
INVESTING ACTIVITIES

         The Company used net cash in investing activities of $3,145,359 in the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, primarily due to the investment of
$3,673,585 in property and equipment, and $327,187 for the purchase of product
licenses and patents. The Company redeemed the balance of the remaining proceeds
of the Industrial Revenue Bond (IRB) debt financing for a portion of the
property and equipment purchased. As of September 30, 1999, $1,496,421 was
invested in daily maturing funds and repurchase agreements.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES

         Financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
provided net cash of $584,149 as compared to $96,271 in the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Proceeds from the exercise of outstanding stock options and
warrants provided cash of $588,600 during the nine month period ended September
30, 1999, as compared to the financing of insurance premiums during the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, which provided cash of $87,278.

YEAR 2000

         The inability of computers, software and other equipment utilizing
microprocessors to recognize and properly process data fields containing a 2
digit year is commonly referred to as the Year 2000 Compliance issue. As the
year 2000 approaches, such systems may be unable to accurately process certain
date-based information.

         The Company has identified all significant applications that will
require modification to ensure Year 2000 Compliance, as part of the Company's
Year 2000 Compliance Plan. Internal and external resources were used to make the
required modifications and test Year 2000 Compliance. The modification and
testing processes of all significant applications were completed in the second
quarter of 1999.

         In addition, the Company has communicated with suppliers with whom it
does significant business to determine their Year 2000 Compliance readiness and
the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to any third party Year 2000
issues. The Company received acceptable responses from these suppliers as to
their readiness; however, there can be no guarantee that the systems of other
companies on which the Company's systems rely will be timely converted, or that
a failure to convert by another company, or a conversion that is incompatible
with the Company's systems, would not have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

         The total cost to the Company of these Year 2000 Compliance activities
has not been material to its financial position or results of operations in any
given year. Costs specifically identified with this activity were less than
$10,000.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELATING TO FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

         The foregoing Management's Discussion and Analysis contains various
"forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning
future events, including, but not limited to, statements regarding growth in
sales of the Company's products, profit margins and the sufficiency of the
Company's cash flow for its future liquidity and capital resource needs. These
forward looking statements are further qualified by important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking
statements. These factors include, without limitation, the effect of competitive
pricing, the Company's dependence on the ability of its third-party
manufacturers to produce components on a basis which is cost-effective to the
Company, market acceptance of the Company's products and the effects of
governmental regulation. Results actually achieved may differ materially from
expected results included in these statements as a result of these or other
factors.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company is exposed to market risk from interest rates. For its cash
and cash equivalents, a change in interest rates affects the amount of interest
income that can be earned. For its debt instruments, changes in interest rates
effect the amount of interest expense incurred.

         Since the year ended December 31, 1998, there have not been any
material changes in the Company's financial instruments that are sensitive to
changes in interest rates.
