RTI BIOLOGICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 and 2007

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

1. Operations and organization

RTI Biologics, Inc., with its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a leader in the use of natural tissues and innovative technologies to produce orthopedic and other surgical implants that repair and promote the natural healing of human bone and other human tissues and improve surgical outcomes. The Company’s core business is processing human musculoskeletal and other tissue, including bone, cartilage, tendon, ligament and dermal tissue in producing allografts, utilizing patented BIOCLEANSE® and TUTOPLAST® sterilization processes, for distribution to hospitals and surgeons. The Company processes at two facilities in Alachua, Florida and one facility in Germany and distributes its products and services in all 50 states and in over 25 countries worldwide.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RTI Biologics, Inc. (“RTIB”), and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”), Tutogen Medical, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“TMI”), Regeneration Technologies, Inc. – Cardiovascular (formerly Alabama Tissue Center, Inc.), Biological Recovery Group (inactive), and RTI Services, Inc. The condensed consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of RTI Donor Services, Inc. (“RTIDS”), which is a controlled entity. RTIDS is a taxable not-for-profit entity organized and controlled by the Company. RTIDS is the corporate entity that is responsible for procuring tissue for the Company. All expenses incurred by RTIDS are passed through to the Company. RTIDS has no significant assets or liabilities except for its intercompany accounts and accounts payable to tissue recovery agencies.

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (“SFAS 142”), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, requires companies to test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis at the reporting unit level (or an interim basis if an event occurs that might reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value). The Company has one reporting unit and the annual impairment test is performed at each fiscal year-end unless indicators of impairment are present and require more frequent testing. SFAS 142 also requires that the carrying value of an identifiable intangible asset that has an indefinite life be determined by using a fair value based approach and if the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for an amount equal to the excess.

Intangible assets generally consist of patents, trademarks, procurement contracts, customer lists, non-compete agreements, distribution agreements and acquired exclusivity rights. Patents and trademarks are amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining protection period or estimated useful lives of between 8 and 16 years. Procurement contracts, customer lists, non-compete agreements and distribution agreements are amortized on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of between 5 to 25 years. The acquired exclusivity rights are being amortized on the straight-line method over eight years, the remaining term of the amended distribution agreement.

Table of Contents

The valuation of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives requires management to use significant judgments and estimates including, but not limited to, projected future revenue and cash flows. Changes in assumptions or market conditions could result in a change in estimated future cash flows and the likelihood of materially different report results. The valuation of the goodwill associated with the merger of TMI will be evaluated on an annual basis in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and is subject to risk based on the performance of the Company following the acquisition.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial assets and liabilities in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and for non-financial assets and liabilities in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and liabilities in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 with no material impact to our consolidated financial statements. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain current liabilities. Fair value for these instruments is based on readily available market prices. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the application of SFAS 157 will have on our consolidated financial statements as it relates to our non-financial assets and liabilities.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company elected not to report any financial assets or liabilities at fair value under SFAS 159 in its first quarter 2008 condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”), which is intended to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of information provided in financial reports about business combinations. SFAS 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements set forth by SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”) specifically that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations and that an acquirer be identified. However, SFAS 141(R) is broader in scope than its predecessor in that the acquisition method of accounting will now be applied not only to business combinations in which control was obtained by transferring consideration, but to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more businesses. SFAS 141(R) requires the acquirer to recognize assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the date of acquisition, effectively eliminating the practice of allocating costs to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as stipulated by SFAS 141. Costs incurred to effect the acquisition, previously considered in the aforementioned cost-allocation process, are to be recognized as a component of earnings. SFAS 141(R) is effective for acquisitions consummated on or after January 1, 2009.

Correction of Cash Flow Statement Errors – Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 have been corrected. Management determined that amounts relating to the patent costs previously reported as operating activities in 2007 should have been reported as investing activities. The Company also determined that the amount of $379 relating to the accrual for purchases of property, plant and equipment previously reported in the supplemental cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2007 should have been $94. Additionally, the Company did not previously report as supplemental cash flow information the non-cash transaction associated with the business exchange with Cryolife for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

3. Merger with Tutogen Medical, Inc.

On February 27, 2008, the Company completed its merger with TMI, a Delaware corporation, in a stock-for-stock merger transaction. TMI, with its consolidated subsidiaries, processed, manufactured and distributed specialty surgical products and performed tissue processing services for dental, spine, urology, hernia repair, breast reconstruction, ophthalmology, and ear, nose and throat applications. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS 141. The results of TMI’s operations have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements since the merger date of February 27, 2008.

Pursuant to the merger agreement, TMI shareholders received 1.22 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for each share of TMI common stock held. The Company issued 23,706,801 shares of its common stock as consideration for this merger. In addition, the Company assumed 2,889,021 TMI stock options that became fully vested on February 27, 2008, as part of the transaction.

Total purchase price consideration includes $245,557 which represents the fair market value of the Company’s securities issued to TMI shareholders, and $20,357 which represents the fair value of the TMI stock options which became fully vested on February 27, 2008 in accordance with change of control provisions included in the stock option agreements. The fair value of the outstanding options was determined using a Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions: volatility of 52.87%; risk-free interest rate of 3.35%; remaining expected term of three years; and dividend yield of zero.

A summary of the components of the purchase price consideration is as follows:

 

Fair market value of securities issued

   $ 245,557

Fair market value of TMI vested stock options assumed

     20,357

Transaction costs not included in TMI net tangible assets acquired

     4,605

Net receivables from TMI on date of merger

     282
      

Total purchase price

   $ 270,801
      

The fair value of the Company’s shares used in determining the purchase price was based on the average of the closing price of the Company’s common stock for a range of five trading days, including two days prior to and two days subsequent to November 12, 2007, the measurement date. The measurement date was determined per the guidance in EITF No. 99-12, Determination of the Measurement Date for the Market Price of Acquirer Securities Issued in a Purchase Business Combination. Based on these closing prices, the Company estimated the fair value of its common stock to be $10.36 per share.

The TMI purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the merger date of February 27, 2008. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The allocation of purchase price related to the TMI merger is preliminary and includes the use of significant estimates that will be updated and finalized by the end of 2008. This preliminary allocation is based on information that was available to management at the time these condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements were prepared. During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, management completed its assessment of the fair value related to the identifiable intangibles of TMI as further described in Note 4. Management has not yet completed its assessment of the fair values of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In particular, merger-related contingencies and income taxes are preliminary and subject to material change based on the results of the final evaluations. Accordingly, the allocation could change as additional information becomes available and is assessed and the impact of such changes may be material.

Short term investments consist primarily of a certificate of deposit from a bank with an initial term of five months. Short term borrowings at February 27, 2008 of 511 Euros ($760) are due to a German bank with an interest rate of 7.5%. Long-term obligations at February 27, 2008 of 2,624 Euros ($3,898) are due to the same German bank with interest rates ranging from 5.15% to 5.75%. The above loans are collateralized by a mortgage on the German facility and up to a 4,000 Euro ($5,942 at February 27, 2008) guarantee from TMI.

Deferred revenue consists primarily of up-front exclusivity fees paid by TMI’s distributors that are being amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the exclusivity relationship.

Goodwill represents the excess of the TMI purchase price over the sum of the amounts assigned to assets acquired less liabilities assumed. The Company believes that the merger with TMI offers the potential for substantial strategic and financial benefits. The Company believes the merger will enhance stockholder value through, among other things, enabling the Company to capitalize on the following strategic advantages and opportunities:

 

   

Diversification of markets, enabling the combined company to help more patients with sterile, biological solutions.

 

   

Balanced distribution model with reduced concentration risk.

 

   

Accelerated growth of xenograft products.

 

   

Combination of domestic and international recovery networks.

 

   

Expansion of distribution and marketing team.

 

   

Increased operational efficiencies.

 

   

Expected revenue and cost synergies.

The Company believes that these primary factors support the amount of goodwill recognized as a result of the purchase price paid for TMI, in relation to other acquired tangible and intangible assets.

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the goodwill is not amortized, but will be subject to a periodic assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value-based test. None of this goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the merger with TMI on February 27, 2008, the Company recorded an intangible asset valued at $12,900 related to procurement contracts that are being amortized over a fifteen-year term. The Company also recorded an intangible asset valued at $1,034 related to selling and marketing relationships that are being amortized over a seven-year term. The Company valued the procurement contracts utilizing a discounted cash flow model which uses forecasts of earnings before interest and taxes as it relates to the individual supplier relationships. The value of the selling and marketing relationships are the benefits derived, based upon estimated cash flows, from having a selling and marketing representative in place versus having to incur the time and cost required to develop or replace the representative. The Company utilized a discount rate of 18% when preparing these models.

Amortization expense related to all of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $477 and $222, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $780 and $442, respectively. Management estimates amortization expense of approximately $1,904 for each of the next five years. The weighted average term of identifiable intangible assets was 13.7 years as of June 30, 2008. There are $1,707 of pending patents that are not subject to amortization until the patents are approved.

5. Stock-Based Compensation

In 2004 and 1998, the Company adopted equity incentive plans (“2004 Plan” and “1998 Plan”) which provide for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options and restricted stock to key employees, including officers and directors of the Company, and consultants and advisors. The 2004 and 1998 Plans allow for 2,000,000 and 4,406,400 shares of common stock, respectively, to be issued with respect to awards granted.

In connection with the merger with TMI, the Company assumed the Biodynamics International, Inc. 1996 Stock Option Plan and the Tutogen Medical, Inc. 2006 Incentive and Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan (“TMI Plans”). The TMI Plans allow for 4,880,000 and 1,830,000 shares of common stock, respectively, to be issued with respect to stock options granted. Outstanding stock options of the TMI Plans were exchanged for stock options to acquire common stock of the Company as described below.

At June 30, 2008, there were 6,588,850 stock options outstanding, and 1,511,416 stock options remained available for grant under the above plans. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, employees and outside directors of the Company were granted stock options under the plans of 0 and 340,000, respectively. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to 100% of the market value of a share of common stock on the date of the grant, generally have ten-year contractual terms, and vest no later than five years from the date of grant.

Presented below is a summary of the status of stock options as of June 30, 2008, and related transactions for the six months then ended:

The weighted-average fair value of options granted as determined under the Black-Scholes method during the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $4.48 per share. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 totaled $1,401 and $178, respectively. The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option. Cash received from option exercises for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 totaled $1,480 and $119, respectively.

As of June 30, 2008, there was $4,506 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to nonvested stock options. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.

Table of Contents

In connection with the merger with TMI, each outstanding option to purchase shares of TMI common stock on February 27, 2008 was exchanged for 1.22 options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. These options were converted on the same terms and conditions as applied to each such option immediately prior to the merger. The exercise price for each TMI option granted was also adjusted by dividing the exercise price in effect immediately prior to the merger by 1.22. The TMI options became fully vested on February 27, 2008 due to change of control provisions in place in the TMI Plans.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company recognized stock-based compensation as follows:

8. Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. The costs of additions and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the property as follows: buildings and improvements, 25 to 40 years; machinery and equipment, 3 to 10 years; and leasehold improvements, the shorter of the term of the lease or the life of the asset. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and only resulting gain or loss is reflected in the accompanying results of operations.

Property, plant and equipment consists of the following:

 

     June 30,

2007
 

Land

   $ 2,024     $ 625

Accrued selling and marketing commissions represent fees that are due to Zimmer Dental, Inc., a related party, who is a commissioned sales and marketing representative for the Company’s dental products (see Note 15).

10. Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years for differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts which are more likely than not to be realized.

As of June 30, 2008, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of $25,793 that begin to expire in the year 2010, as well as state net operating loss carryforwards of $31,749 that begin to expire in the year 2021.

As of June 30, 2008, the Company had research and experimentation tax credit carryforwards of $3,193 that will expire in years 2018 through 2027, as well as alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards of $383 that are carried forward indefinitely.

The Company expects the deferred tax assets of approximately $21,229, net of the valuation allowance at June 30, 2008 of $1,268, to be realized through the generation of future taxable income and the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences. Valuation allowances have been recorded for certain state tax loss carryforwards as the Company does not believe that it will have future income in the state to utilize the loss carry forwards, and tax deductions taken for certain merger-related costs. These valuation allowances total $1,268. The Company has considered the impact of recent losses as it relates to the realization of the remaining net deferred tax assets. Based on the weight of evidence, including various strategic initiatives such as new distribution and recovery agreements entered into, new product introductions during 2006 and 2007, taxable income in 2007 and forecasted taxable income in future years, management has determined that it is more likely than not that such net deferred tax assets will be realized.

At the date of the adoption, January 1, 2007, of FASB Interpretation No. 48, the Company reclassified a valuation allowance recorded in noncurrent deferred tax assets in the amount of $717 to unrecognized tax benefits included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The unrecognized tax benefits increased by $51 during the first half of 2007 resulting from our income tax positions. If these tax benefits were recognized by the Company our effective tax rate would be favorably impacted. There were no significant changes to the Company’s income tax positions for the first half of 2008.

11. Restructuring Charges

At the time of the merger with TMI, the Company instituted a restructuring plan primarily related to severance of certain of its employees as a result of the integration activities following the merger. The total estimated restructuring charges approximate $750 and should be recognized in full prior to December 31, 2008. The severance payments are made over periods ranging from one month to twelve months and will not have a material impact on cash flows of the Company in any quarterly period.

For the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company derived approximately 24.1% and 51.1%, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, 20.0% and 50.3%, respectively, of its total revenues from a single customer, Medtronic Sofamor Danek (“MSD”).

At June 30, 2008, property, plant and equipment with a value of $37,116 and $12,461 was held in the United States and Germany, respectively.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company currently has operating leases for the TMI corporate offices in the U.S., which expire January, 2009, as well as several leases related to office equipment and automobiles. The Company does not intend to renew the TMI corporate offices lease since the TMI operations are expected to move into the RTIB owned facilities. Future minimum rental payments required under these leases that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease terms in excess of one year as of June 30, 2008 are as follows. The minimum payments for the remainder of 2008 are $947; in 2009 are $897; in 2010 are $457; in 2011 are $341; in 2012 are $244; and thereafter are $0.

The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its operations in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that none of these claims that were outstanding as of June 30, 2008 will have a material adverse impact on its financial position or results of operations.

On October 14, 2005, the Company issued a voluntary recall of certain allograft implants processed from donated tissue recovered by Biomedical Tissue Service, Ltd., an unaffiliated recovery agency (“BTS”). The recall was initiated as a result of questions raised by the processors and the Food and Drug Administration in relation to the accuracy of documentation provided by BTS. The Company has been named as a party, along with a number of other defendants, in product liability lawsuits relating to the recall of tissue recovered by BTS. There have been 861

Table of Contents

lawsuits filed related to the recall of which 18 lawsuits have been dismissed for RTI as of June 30, 2008. As of the end of June 2008, TMI, a subsidiary of RTI, had a total of 82 suits related to BTS, with 21 suits dismissed. On June 21, 2006, the Company’s petition for Multi District litigation consolidation was granted, consolidating federal Biomedical Tissue Service cases in the U.S. District Court in Newark, New Jersey (“MDL”). The Companies’ pending joint motion to dismiss the claims, based on scientific evidence that the subject allograft was processed and sterilized to eliminate donor-to-recipient disease transmission and is therefore incapable of transmitting disease to implant recipients, is scheduled to be heard through the MDL in several hearings during the month of September 2008. These lawsuits generally allege that the Company was negligent in not discovering deficiencies in recovery practices at BTS and include related claims for matters such as misrepresentation and breach of warranty. Where specific damages have been identified, the actions seek compensatory damages in ranges of $15 to $5,000 and punitive damages in ranges of $75 to $10,000. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to these possible claims, and will defend them vigorously. In addition, the Company believes its existing insurance should cover all litigation expenses and damage awards, if any.

On September 11, 2006 Osteotech, Inc. filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey claiming infringement of one of their patents by the Company’s BioCleanse® process. Osteotech’s complaint was subsequently amended to add another patent. The lawsuit requests 1) that the Company be enjoined permanently from infringing the patents, 2) damages, along with treble damages as a result of alleged willful infringement, and 3) reimbursement of costs and expenses and reasonable attorney fees. The Company believes the suit is without merit and will vigorously defend its position. However, a finding of infringement could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

If the Company is not successful in its defenses to lawsuits not covered by insurance, or if existing insurance coverage is not adequate, the legal fees and settlements for such lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on quarterly results of the Company’s operations and financial position.

The Company’s accounting policy is to accrue for legal costs as they are incurred.

15. Related Party Transactions

As of June 30, 2008, Zimmer CEP USA Holding Co., a subsidiary of Zimmer Holdings, Inc. (“Zimmer”) was the owner of 9% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.

The Company, through its merger with TMI, has distribution relationships with Zimmer for spinal applications in the United States and dental products internationally. For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2008, product distributions to Zimmer totaled $3,337 and $4,448, respectively.

The Company, through its merger with TMI, has a relationship with Zimmer to act as an exclusive sales and marketing representative for the Company’s bone tissue for dental applications in the United States. Under this distribution agreement, the Company ships directly to Zimmer’s customers. For the three and six month period ending June 30, 2008, Zimmer was paid commissions aggregating approximately $2,911 and $3,775, respectively.

On May 14, 2007, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Zimmer with an initial term of 10 years, relating to certain demineralized bone matrix products. As part of the agreement, Zimmer agreed to make three payments to the Company totaling $5,000 for the aforementioned exclusive distribution rights, and maintain certain minimum order volumes. The first payment of $1,000 was made at the time of entering the agreement. The second payment of $2,000 was made in the first quarter of 2008. The final payment of $2,000 is expected to be paid in the fourth quarter of 2008. The $5,000 exclusivity payment has been deferred and is being recognized as other revenue on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the contract. The contract provides for repayment, on a pro rata basis, of the exclusivity payments during the initial contract term for specific events of non-performance, as defined in the agreement. The agreement also includes automatic two-year renewal terms, as well as buy-out provisions by both parties upon proper notice of cancellation.

Amounts payable for commissions to Zimmer under the above agreements total $2,839 and $0 at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Trade accounts receivable from Zimmer under the above agreements totaled $2,773 at June 30, 2008 and $121 at December 31, 2007, respectively.

Management Overview: Recent Developments

We are a leader in the use of natural tissues and innovative technologies to produce orthopedic and other surgical implants that repair and promote the natural healing of human bone and other human tissues and improve surgical outcomes. We process human musculoskeletal and other tissue, including bone, cartilage, tendon, ligament and dermal tissue in producing our allografts. We also process bovine tissue to produce our xenograft line of products. Surgeons then use our products to repair and promote the healing of a wide variety of bone and other tissue defects, including spinal vertebrae repair, musculoskeletal reconstruction, fracture repair, dental repair, breast reconstruction, hernia repair, urology implants, and repairs to the jaw and related tissues, among other conditions. Our products are distributed in all 50 states and in over 25 other countries worldwide.

Our goals for 2008 are to fully integrate TMI with the Company, realize potential expense synergies, develop revenue synergies, and build on the Company’s competitive strengths as we focus on our future. We plan to focus on several long-term strategies in order to meet our goals. The key strategies are:

 

   

develop new allograft and xenograft implants to enhance our current lines of implants;

 

   

increase efforts with our tissue recovery relationships to maintain and increase tissue available for processing;

 

   

focus on marketing, distribution and regulatory support of our line of xenograft implants; and

 

   

maintain our commitment to research and development and focus clinical efforts to support the market acceptance of our allograft and xenograft implants.

Revenues. Our revenues increased $17.9 million, or 78.1%, to $40.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007.

Sports Medicine—Revenues from sports medicine allografts increased $3.6 million, or 55.3%, to $10.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007. Sports medicine revenues increased primarily as a result of significant unit volume increases and higher average revenue per unit. Unit volumes increased by 49.8% due to higher numbers of tendons distributed, including our assembled tendons. Average revenue per unit increased by 2.9% primarily due to changes in the mix of implants distributed.

Spinal Constructs—Revenues from spinal allografts decreased $326,000, or 3.1%, to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007. Unit volumes were up 4.1% as a result of higher distributions of both lumbar and cervical grafts. Average revenue per unit decreased by 7.2% due to changes in mix of implants distributed.

Bone Graft Substitutes—Revenues from bone graft substitute allografts decreased $254,000, or 6.0%, to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007. Bone graft substitute allograft revenues decreased primarily as a result of unit volume decreasing by 3.6%.

Dental—We did not offer dental allografts prior to our merger with TMI, which closed on February 27, 2008. Revenues from dental allografts for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $8.2 million.

Cash Flows—Six months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared With Six months Ended June 30, 2007.

Cash flows used in operating activities were $849,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2008, compared to cash flows provided by $5.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 period. The principal sources of cash were net earnings of $2.1 million and the utilization of net operating loss tax carryforwards of $820,000. Other non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization, included in net earnings accounted for another $4.4 million of operating cash. Other significant items of operating cash flows related primarily to increases in accounts receivable and inventories due to higher levels of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

We continue to focus on working capital management. At June 30, 2008, we had 41 days of sales outstanding in trade accounts receivable, which is unfavorable to December 31, 2007 by 3 days. At June 30, 2008, we had 257 days of inventory on hand, which is unfavorable to December 31, 2007 by 9 days.

Liquidity.

As of June 30, 2008, we had $21.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. We believe that our working capital as of June 30, 2008, together with our borrowing ability under our available lines of credit, will be adequate to fund our on-going operations.

Our accounts receivable days sales outstanding were 41 at June 30, 2008 compared to 38 at December 31, 2007, respectively. Our inventory days outstanding were 257 at June 30, 2008 compared to 248 at December 31, 2007.

Certain Commitments.

On May 14, 2007, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with Zimmer with an initial term of 10 years. The distribution agreement relates to certain new products currently in production. As part of the agreement, Zimmer has agreed to make three payments to the Company totaling $5.0 million for the aforementioned exclusive distribution rights, and maintain certain minimum order volumes. The first payment of $1.0 million was made at the time of entering the agreement. The second payment of $2.0 million was made in the first quarter of 2008. The final payment of $2.0 million is expected to be paid in the second half of 2008. The $5.0 million exclusivity payment has been deferred and is being recognized as other revenue on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the contract. The contract provides for repayment, on a pro rata basis, of the exclusivity payments during the initial contract term for specific events of non-performance, as defined in the agreement. The agreement also includes automatic two-year renewal terms, as well as buy-out provisions by both parties upon proper notice of cancellation.

In December, 2006 we announced an Exchange and Service Agreement with CryoLife, Inc. (“CryoLife”) whereby we transferred certain rights to our cardiovascular business to CryoLife in exchange for certain rights related to CryoLife’s orthopedic sports medicine business. As a result, effective January 1, 2007, we no longer procure and process cardiovascular tissue. We ceased distribution of cardiovascular tissue inventory on December 31, 2007. Under the Exchange and Service Agreement, from July 1, 2008 through December 31, 2016 we have agreed not to market or solicit orders for human cardiac and vascular tissues.

On February 20, 2004, we entered into a long-term financing agreement with a major financial institution. The agreement consists of a $9.0 million five-year term loan and a five-year $16.0 million revolving line of credit. The $9.0 million term loan calls for monthly principal payments of $125,000. Interest on the term loan agreement is paid monthly at LIBOR plus 4.25% (6.72% at June 30, 2008). The outstanding balance due on the term loan at June 30, 2008 is $2.6 million. Under the $16.0 million revolving line of credit, we can borrow up to the maximum eligible amount, based on certain outstanding receivables of which $8.3 million is available at June 30, 2008. Interest on outstanding amounts under the revolving line of credit is payable at LIBOR plus 3.75%. Principal and interest on the revolving line of credit are payable upon maturity. There is a 0.5% fee payable on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. No amounts were outstanding under the revolving line of credit at June 30, 2008. The term loan and revolving line of credit are fully collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company, including accounts receivable, inventories and certain property and equipment.

The credit agreement also contains various restrictive covenants which limit, among other things, indebtedness, liens and business combination transactions. In the second quarter of 2006, the lender replaced all financial covenants with a minimum liquidity requirement of $6.0 million. Minimum liquidity is defined as the amount available under the revolving line of credit plus unrestricted cash. We exceeded the $6.0 million minimum liquidity requirement as of June 30, 2008.

As part of the merger with TMI on February 27, 2008, we acquired TMI’s long-term obligations, which consist of senior debt construction loans, and TMI’s working capital credit lines.

Under the terms of revolving credit facilities with two German banks, we may borrow up to 1.5 million Euros (1.0 million Euros and 500,000 Euros, respectively) or approximately $2.4 million for working capital needs. At June 30, 2008, we had 357,000 Euros, or $563,000, borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit agreements with variable interest rate of 7.75%. The 500,000 Euro revolving credit facility is secured by accounts receivable of TMI’s German subsidiary. The 1.0 million Euro revolving credit facility is secured by a mortgage on our German facility and a guarantee by TMI.

In November 2005, TMI entered into a revolving credit facility in the U.S. for up to $1.5 million, expiring on November 18, 2008. At June 30, 2008, we had no outstanding borrowings on this credit facility. The TMI U.S. accounts receivable and inventory assets secure the borrowing under the revolving credit facility. The Company is required to maintain a maximum senior debt to tangible net worth ratio of 2.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2008, we were in compliance with this covenant.

Senior debt consists of four loans with a German bank. The first loan of 290,000 Euros (or $459,000) as of June 30, 2008, has an interest rate of 5.00%, payable monthly, maturing June of 2011. The second loan of 938,000 Euros (or $1.5 million) as of June 30, 2008, has an interest rate of 5.15%, payable quarterly, maturing March of 2012. The third loan of 935,000 Euros (or $1.5 million) as of June 30, 2008 is payable semi-annually at a fixed rate of 5.60% maturing December 2016. The fourth loan of 221,000 Euros (or $349,000) as of June 30, 2008, is payable quarterly at a fixed rate of 5.75%, maturing September 2012. The senior debt and a revolving credit facility with a German bank are secured by a mortgage on our German facility and is guaranteed by the TMI parent company. There are no financial covenants under this debt.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based upon our financing, investing and cash management activities. We do not expect changes in interest rates to have a material adverse effect on our income or our cash flows in 2008. However, we cannot assure that interest rates will not significantly change in 2008.

In the United States and in Germany, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk. Changes in interest rates affect interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents and interest expense on revolving credit arrangements. Except for an interest rate swap associated with 1.5 million Euros (or $2.4 million) of long term debt over six years starting March 31, 2006, the Company does not enter into derivative transactions related to cash and cash

equivalents or debt. Accordingly, the Company is subject to changes in interest rates. Based on June 30, 2008 outstanding intercompany balances, a 1% change in currency rates would have a de-minimus impact on our results of operations.

The value of the U.S. dollar compared to the Euro affects our financial results. Changes in exchange rates may positively or negatively affect revenues, gross margins, operating expenses and net income. The international operation currently transacts business primarily in the Euro. Intercompany transactions translate from the Euro to the U.S. dollar. Based on June 30, 2008 outstanding intercompany balances, a 1% change in currency rates would have a de-minimus impact on our results of operations.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed on the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

There have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We refer you to Part I, Item 1, note 14 entitled “Commitments and Contingencies.”

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We or our competitors may be exposed to product or professional liability claims which could cause us to be liable for damages or cause investors to think we will be liable for similar claims in the future.

The development of allografts and technologies for human tissue repair and treatment entails an inherent risk of product or professional liability claims, and substantial product or professional liability claims may be asserted against us. We are party to a number of legal proceedings relating to product liability.

The implantation of donated human tissue products creates the potential for transmission of communicable disease. Although we comply with Federal and state regulations and guidelines intended to prevent communicable disease transmission, and our tissue suppliers are also required to comply with such regulations, there can be no assurances that: (i) our tissue suppliers will comply with such regulations intended to prevent communicable disease transmissions; (ii) even if such compliance is achieved, that our products have not been or will not be associated with transmission of disease; or (iii) a patient otherwise infected with disease would not erroneously assert a claim that the use of our products resulted in disease transmission.

We currently have $20 million of product liability insurance and $20 million of professional liability insurance to cover claims. This amount of insurance may not be adequate for current claims if we are not successful in our defenses, and furthermore, we may not have adequate insurance coverage for any future claims that arise. Moreover, insurance covering our business may not always be available in the future on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If our insurance proves to be inadequate to pay a damage award, we may not have sufficient funds to do so, which would harm our financial condition and liquidity. In addition, successful product liability claims made against one of our competitors could cause claims to be made against us or expose us to a perception that we are vulnerable to similar claims. Claims against us, regardless of their merit or potential outcome, may also hurt our ability to obtain surgeon endorsement of our allografts or to expand our business.

We have been named as a party, along with a number of other defendants, in tort based lawsuits relating to the recall of tissue recovered by Biomedical Tissue Service, Ltd., an unaffiliated recovery agency (“BTS”). As of July 31 2008, there have been 871 law suits filed related to the recall of which 17 law suits have been dismissed. These lawsuits generally allege that we were negligent in not discovering deficiencies in recovery practices at BTS and include related claims for matters such as misrepresentation and breach of warranty. On October 20, 2006, we filed a joint motion in federal court to dismiss the claims based on scientific evidence that it is impossible for sterilized tissue to transmit infections to implant recipients. This “science first” motion has been updated to reflect that no freeze dried allograft has ever transmitted disease or infection from a donor to a patient. Where specific damages have been identified, the actions seek compensatory damages in ranges of $15,000 to $5 million and punitive damages in ranges of $75,000 to $10 million. Product and professional liability insurance of approximately $13 million is currently available for legal fees or potential settlements relating to the BTS recall.

We believe that we have meritorious defenses to these claims, and are defending them vigorously. In addition, we believe our existing insurance should cover all litigation expenses and damage awards, if any. However, the existing insurance coverage may not be adequate if we are not successful in our defenses and certain lawsuits may not be eligible for such insurance coverage. If we are not successful in our defenses to lawsuits not covered by insurance, or if existing insurance coverage is not adequate, the legal fees and settlements for such lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on quarterly results of our operations and our financial position.
