Endocardial Solutions, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

    The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Due to the Company's full market release in Europe in the third quarter 1998, the Company is no longer considered to be in the development stage. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, contained in the Company's Form 10-K.

2. Inventories

    Inventories are carried at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market. The majority of inventory consists of purchased components. To determine the technological feasibility of its software efforts, the Company utilizes the working model approach available under SFAS No. 86 and believes that the working model was achieved when the software was available for commercial use in June 1998.

3. Reclassifications

    Certain prior year items have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations.

4. Stock Offering

    In July 1999, the Company received proceeds of $10,000,000 from a private placement of 1,111,111 shares of its common stock at a price of $9.00 per share, to accredited investors. In June 2000, the Company received proceeds of $12,687,500 from a private placement of 2,030,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $6.25 per share, to accredited investors.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

General

    Endocardial Solutions Inc. (the "Company"), was incorporated in May 1992. The Company develops, manufactures and markets the EnSite 3000® clinical workstation and EnSite® catheter for use by electrophysiologists in diagnosing and mapping abnormal heart rhythms known as arrhythmias. The EnSite 3000 clinical workstation and EnSite catheter received FDA approval for right atrial use in the U.S. during the second quarter 1999. Through a distribution agreement with Medtronic, Inc., the products are available in full market release to electrophysiologists in Europe and Canada.

Results of Operations

    General.  Net losses decreased to $3,137,461, or $.31 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2000, as compared to $3,750,320, or $.41 per share, for the same period in 1999. Net losses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $5,639,875, or $.55 per share, compared to $6,663,402, or $.74 per share, for the same period in 1999. The Company expects losses to continue through mid-2001. The Company is in a period of growth in sales and marketing expenses related to market introduction, including increases in personnel costs.

    Revenue and Cost of Goods Sold.  The Company began recording revenue in the U.S. in the second quarter of 1999 and in Europe during the second quarter 1998. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $3,737,131, compared with revenues of $1,719,053 for the same period in 1999. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $7,097,189, compared to $3,012,435 for the same period in 1999. Revenues include the sale of the Company's EnSite® catheter and EnSite 3000® clinical workstation, including the Company's proprietary software, patient interface unit and other peripherals.

    Cost of goods sold including unabsorbed manufacturing expenses was $1,929,316 and $1,411,825 for the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, cost of goods sold was $3,804,991, compared to $2,853,744 during the same period in 1999. With the market release of the Company's Clarity™ software starting in June 2000, capitalized software development costs are being amortized through cost of goods sold over the expected 18 month product life cycle.

    The gross profit margin was 48.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared with 16.0% during the same period in 1999. The gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was 46.4% and 5.3%, respectively. The increase in margins for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999 is directly attributable to the Company having a full six months, to date, of U.S. sales in 2000, compared to only a months' worth of U.S. sales in 1999.

    Research and Development Expenses.  Research and development expenses include compensation and benefit costs within the clinical, software, hardware, catheter and applied research departments as well as costs associated with regulatory expenses. Research and development expenses were $1,165,236 for the three month period ended June 30, 2000, compared to $1,342,020 during the same period in 1999, a decrease of $176,784. Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $2,227,645, compared to $2,707,001 during the same period in 1999, a decrease of $479,356. The decrease is attributable to the capitalization after reaching technological feasibility, of software development costs related to the Clarity™ release. For the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, all software development costs have been expensed. The Company believes research and development expenditures will increase slightly for the remainder of 2000.

    General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses were $533,924 and $528,724 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of $5,200. Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $1,067,443, compared to $1,004,273 during the same period in 1999, an increase of $63,170. The increase is due primarily to an increase in personnel costs.

7


    Sales and Marketing Expenses.  Sales and marketing expenses were $3,147,878 during the three months ended June 30, 2000, and $2,168,768 during the same period in 1999, an increase of $979,110. Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $5,501,670, compared to $3,147,309 during the same period in 1999, an increase of $2,354,361. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in personnel and costs associated with building and training of the U.S. sales and clinical team. As the Company continues to penetrate the U.S. market, increases in sales and marketing expenses are expected in the next two quarters, as it adds additional headcount in both its selling and field clinical engineering areas.

    Interest Income.  Interest income was $76,505 and $86,525 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $202,043, compared to $199,602 during the same period in 1999. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was due to lower average balances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

    As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $14,050,486 and $7,086,786, respectively.

    The Company announced a financing agreement with Medtronic, Inc. during the first quarter 1999. Under the agreement, the Company received $7 million from Medtronic Asset Management, which is repayable by February 2001 or, if earlier, at the close of a significant round of debt or equity financing. During the first quarter 1999, $3.5 million was received as part of this financing agreement. The remaining $3.5 million was received during the first quarter 2000.

    In July 1999, the Company received proceeds of $10,000,000 from a private placement of 1,111,111 shares of its common stock to accredited investors. The placement was priced at $9.00 per share. In August 1999, these shares were registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933.

    In June 2000, the Company received proceeds of $12,687,500 from a private placement of 2,030,000 shares of its common stock to accredited investors. The placement was priced at $6.25 per share. In July 2000, these shares were registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933.

    The Company believes that its existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and bank financing will be sufficient to fund the operations of the Company through early 2001. The Company's future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the timing of regulatory actions regarding the Company's products, the results of clinical trials and competition, the extent to which the Company's EnSite System gains market acceptance, the costs and timing of expansion of sales, marketing and manufacturing activities and the ability of the Company to obtain bank financing.

Cautionary Statement

    Except for the historical information contained herein, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains 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. When used in this Form 10-Q and in future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the word or phrases "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "will likely result," "estimates," "projects" or similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the following: risks associated with the successful development and commercialization of a new technology: continued clinical testing experience; uncertainty of obtaining Food and Drug Administration and international regulatory clearances; uncertainty of availability of treatments employing the Company's EnSite system;

8


uncertainty of market acceptance of the EnSite System; training requirements for electrophysiologists; the uncertainty of the ability to diagnose and treat atrial fibrillation; the expectation of future losses; significant competition and rapid technological change in the tachycardia diagnostic market; risks associated with the Company's dependence on patents and proprietary technology; risks associated with the Company's limited manufacturing experience and dependence on suppliers; and the uncertainty of third-party reimbursement for diagnostic medical procedures employing the EnSite System. These factors are discussed in the cautionary statements included in Exhibit 99 to this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Other forward looking statements are found in the Company's disclosures about market risk. The Company cautions investors and others to review the statements set forth in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Exhibit 99 and in the Company's other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and that other factors may prove to be important in affecting the Company's business and results of operations.

    The Company had approximately $14 million of cash and investments on June 30, 2000. Substantially all of the investments were U.S. government or investment grade, fixed income securities from domestic issuers. Because of the credit risk criteria of the Company's investment policies, the primary market risk associated with these investments is interest rate risk. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk or to speculate on futures changes in interest rates. A rise in interest rates could negatively affect the fair value of the Company's investments; however, because management considers it unlikely that the Company would need or choose to substantially liquidate the Company's investments, management believes that such an increase in interest rates would not have a material impact on the Company's future earnings or cash flows. Even though the Company distributes products abroad, the Company does not conduct sales in foreign currencies. Therefore, management does believe that Company is exposed to any material foreign currency exchange rate risk.
