ROCHESTER MEDICAL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
December 31, 2007
Note A Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which have been derived
from the Companys audited financial statements and the unaudited December 31, 2007 and 2006
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission which include the instructions to Form 10-Q.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the
Companys 2007 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods presented. Operating results for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2008.
Note B Net Income Per Share
Net income per share is calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 128,
Earnings Per Share.
The Companys basic net income per share is computed by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period, increased to include dilutive potential common shares
issuable upon the exercise of stock options that were outstanding during the period. A
reconciliation of the numerator and denominator in the basic and diluted net income per share
calculation is as follows:

Employee stock options of 30,000 and 337,000 for the first quarter of fiscal years 2008 and
2007, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation because
their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Companys common stock and
their affect would have been antidilutive.
Note C Stock Based Compensation
The Company has three stock option plans under which options have been granted to employees,
including officers and directors of the Company, at a price not less than the fair market value of
the Companys common stock at the date the options were granted. Options under the 1991 Stock
Option Plan are no longer granted because the 10-year
4
granting period has expired. The granting period for the 2001 Stock Incentive Plan expires in
2011. Under the 1995 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan, options also may be granted to certain
non-employees at a price not less than the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the
date the options are granted. Options generally expire ten years from the date of grant or at an
earlier date as determined by the committee of the Board of Directors of the Company that
administers the plans. Options granted under the 1991, 1995 and 2001 Plans generally vest over
four years from the date of grant.
Effective October 1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123 (Revised 2004),
Share-Based Payment
(SFAS 123(R)) which requires all
share-based payments, including grants of stock options, to be recognized in the statement of
operations as an operating expense based on their fair values over the requisite service period.
The Company elected to utilize the modified-prospective transition method as permitted by SFAS
123(R). Under this transition method, the Companys financial statements for prior periods have
not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R). Stock-based
compensation expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 includes: (a) compensation
expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, October
1, 2005, based on grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of
SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation;
and (b) compensation expense for all
stock-based compensation awards granted subsequent to October 1, 2005, based on grant-date fair
value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). The Company recorded
approximately $251,000 and $1,102,000 of related stock-based compensation expense for the quarter
ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This stock-based compensation expense reduced
diluted earnings per share for the quarters ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 by $0.02 and $0.09
respectively.
As of December 31, 2007, $1,143,306 of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested
awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately fourteen
months.
Stock Options
In the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and 2007, 0 and 377,000 shares were granted respectively,
of which 40,000 were restricted stock in fiscal 2007. The Black-Scholes option pricing model was
used to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards with the following weighted average
assumptions for the first quarter of fiscal 2007. There were no grants this quarter.

Note E Marketable Securities
The Company has considerable investments in marketable securities and cash as a result of the
cash settlements received from lawsuits. The marketable securities primarily consist of
investments in various municipal bonds with variable interest rates that mature within the next 12
months.
Note F Income Taxes
The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of its net deferred tax
assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Prior to fiscal 2005, the
Company recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty
of the realization and timing of the benefits from those deferred tax assets as the Company had not
achieved a sufficient level of sustained profitability. During 2005, management concluded that the
Company had attained a sufficient level of sustained profitability to allow the valuation allowance
to be reduced to reflect managements estimate of the amount of deferred tax assets that will be
realized in the near term. Considering projected levels of future income as well as the nature of
the net deferred assets, management reduced the valuation allowance by $454,000 during 2005
resulting in a corresponding income tax benefit in the statement of operations, and management
further reduced the allowance by $777,000 in 2006 to reflect managements revised and increased
estimates of future taxable income. During 2007, the Companys earnings were sufficient to
determine all deferred tax assets will be realized and the valuation allowance was therefore
reduced to zero. The Company utilized its entire $21.0 million net operating loss in 2007 which
reduced the overall effective state and federal income tax results. As a result, the Company
recorded $8.4 million for income tax expense in 2007. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the
realizability of our deferred tax assets and assess the requirements for a valuation allowance.
For the quarter
ended December 31, 2007, the Company had an effective income tax rate of approximately 28% due to
a large portion of income being tax exempt. The Company normally expects the effective tax rate on operating income
to be in the range of 34-35%.
6
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No.
48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109
(FIN
48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 provides that the
tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the Companys financial statements
only if the position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical
merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of fiscal 2008,
with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to
opening retained earnings. The Company adopted FIN 48 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. There
was no material effect on the consolidated financial statements. As a result, there was no
cumulative effect related to adopting FIN 48.
It is the Companys practice to recognize penalties and/or interest to income tax matters in
income tax expense. As of October 1, 2007, the Company did not have any accrued interest or
penalties related to FIN 48 adoption as there is no unrecognized tax benefit as of the dated of
adoption.
The Company is subject to income tax examinations in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, as well as
in the UK and various state jurisdictions. The Company is not currently under examination by any
taxing jurisdiction.
Note G Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income includes net income and all other nonowner changes in shareholders
equity during a period. The comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended December 31,

Note H Line of Credit and Long-Term Debt
In June 2006, in conjunction with an asset purchase agreement with Coloplast, the Company
entered into an unsecured loan note deed with Coloplast with an outstanding principal amount of
$5,340,000. The promissory note is non-interest bearing payable in five equal installments of
$1,068,000 payable annually on June 2. The Company has discounted the $5,340,000 note at 6.90%
which reflects its cost of borrowing at the date of the purchase agreement and has recorded the
debt net of discount of $931,000 at $4,409,000. The outstanding balance on the promissory note at
December 31, 2007 was $3,902,643.
In June 2006, the Company entered into a $7,000,000 credit facility with U.S. Bank National
Association. The credit facility consists of a $5,000,000 term loan payable in five years and
accruing interest at a rate equal to 6.83%, and a revolving line of credit of up to $2,000,000,
maturing annually beginning March 31, 2008, with interest payable monthly at a floating rate based
on the quoted one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.60%. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had no
borrowings under the revolving line of credit and the term loan had an outstanding balance of
$3,680,815. The obligations of the Company are secured by assets of the Company, including accounts
receivable, investments, general intangibles, inventory, and equipment. The term loan agreement
and revolving credit agreement require the Company to comply with certain financial covenants,
including a fixed charge coverage ratio and minimum working capital of $8 million, and restrict
certain additional indebtedness and liens. As of December 31, 2007, the Company was not in
compliance with one of the bank covenants related to its fixed charge coverage ratio as a result of
timing of tax payments associated with lawsuit settlements. The Company has obtained a waiver from
U.S. Bank for this covenant.

Note I Litigation Settlements
The Company is a plaintiff in a lawsuit titled Rochester Medical Corporation vs. C.R. Bard,
Inc.; Tyco International (US), Inc.; Tyco Health Care Group, L.P.; Novation LLC; VHA, Inc.;
Premier, Inc.; and Premier Purchasing Partners, in the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Texas, Civil Action No. 504-CV-060. This suit alleges anti-competitive conduct against
the defendants in the markets for standard and anti-infection Foley catheters as well as urethral
catheters, and seeks an unspecified amount of damages and injunctive and other relief.
On November 20, 2006, the Company announced that it had reached a settlement with Premier,
Inc. and Premier Purchasing Partners, L.P. with respect to the lawsuit. Under the settlement
agreement, Premier paid the Company $8,825,000 (net $5,155,000 after payment of attorneys fees and
expenses) and was dismissed from the lawsuit.
On December 14, 2006, the Company announced it had reached a settlement with C.R. Bard, Inc.,
whereby C.R. Bard, Inc. paid the Company $49,000,000 (net $33,450,000 after payment of attorneys
fees and expenses) and was dismissed from the lawsuit.
On August 6, 2007, the Company announced that it had reached a settlement with Novation LLC
with respect to the lawsuit. Under the settlement agreement, Novation awarded the Company an
Innovative Technology Contract for its urological catheter products and related accessories,
including the Companys advanced Infection Control catheters, and was dismissed from the lawsuit.
The Innovation Technology Contract has a three-year term from the effective date of September 1,
2007. The litigation continues against Tyco, with a new trial date yet to be determined by the
court.
The net proceeds from the settlement payments is recorded in Other Income in the Statement of
Operations for the period ended December 31, 2006.
Note J Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109
(FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position
can be recognized in the Companys financial statements only if the position is more likely than
not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of
FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of fiscal 2008, with the cumulative effect of the change
in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company
adopted FIN 48 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. There was no material effect on the
consolidated financial statements. As a result, there was no cumulative effect related to adopting
FIN 48.
It is the Companys practice to recognize penalties and/or interest to income tax matters in
income tax expense. As of October 1, 2007, the Company did not have any accrued interest or
penalties related to FIN 48 adoption as there is no unrecognized tax benefit as of the dated of
adoption.
The Company is subject to income tax examinations in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, as well as
in the UK and various state jurisdictions. The Company is not currently under examination by any
taxing jurisdiction.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements
(SFAS 157"
).
SFAS
No. 157 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value, and expands disclosure requirements pertaining to fair value measurements.
SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact that this guidance may have on its results of operations and financial position.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities
(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 is currently assessing the impact of SFAS 159
on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
8
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised
2007),
Business Combinations
(SFAS No. 141(R)). SFAS No. 141(R), among other things, establishes
principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a business combination (i) recognizes and
measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and
any noncontrolling interest in the acquired business, (ii) recognizes and measures the goodwill
acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase, and (iii) determines what
information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and
financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years
beginning on or after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company is required
to adopt SFAS No. 141(R) for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or
after January 1, 2009. This standard will change the Companys accounting treatment for business
combinations on a prospective basis.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51
(SFAS
No. 160). SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for noncontrolling interests
in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Minority interests will be
recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity. It also
establishes a single method of accounting for changes in a parents ownership interest in a
subsidiary and requires expanded disclosures. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning
on or after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect the
adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of
operations.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
We develop, manufacture and market a broad line of innovative, technologically enhanced
PVC-free and latex-free urinary continence and urine drainage care products for the extended care
and acute care markets. Our products are comprised of our base products, which includes our male
external catheters and standard silicone Foley catheters, and our advanced products, which include
our intermittent catheters, our anti-infection Foley catheters and our FemSoft Insert. We market
our products under our Rochester Medical brand, and also supply our products to several large
medical product companies for sale under brands owned by these companies, which are referred to as
private label sales. The primary markets for our products are distributors, extended care
facilities and individual hospitals and healthcare institutions. We sell our products both in the
domestic market and internationally. For fiscal 2008, we intend to increase investment in our
sales and marketing programs, primarily through cash generated from current operations, to support
branded sales growth in the U.S. and Europe.
The following discussion pertains to our results of operations and financial position for the
quarters ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. Results of the periods are not necessarily indicative

2007, we reported net income of $0.02 per diluted share, compared to $2.59 per diluted share for
the same period last year. Income from operations was $72,000 for the quarter ended December 31,
2007 compared to $290,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, while net income was $272,000
compared to $31,467,000 for the same period last year. Net income and net income per diluted share

Three Month Periods Ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006
Net Sales.
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 increased 9% to $8,223,000 from
$7,512,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The sales increase primarily resulted
from an increase in branded sales volume. Domestic sales of branded products increased by 27% for
the quarter compared to the same period last year. Our international branded sales increased 36%
compared to the same period last year, primarily as a result of the operations in the United
Kingdom that were purchased in June 2006. Total branded sales results met managements
expectations, and management believes its strategic decision to increase investments in sales and
marketing programs will continue to drive growth in branded sales. Private label sales decreased
23% for the quarter compared to the same period last year. Management believes this decrease is
related to timing of private label orders and, therefore, is temporary.
Gross Margin
. Our gross margin as a percentage of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal
2008 was 50% compared to 50% for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year.
Marketing and Selling.
Marketing and selling expense primarily includes costs associated with
base salary paid to sales and marketing personnel, sales commissions, and travel and advertising
expense. Marketing and selling expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 increased 80% to
$2,224,000 from $1,234,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The increase in
marketing and selling expense is primarily due to increased sales and marketing personnel and
related expenses of $687,000 incurred through the expansion of our sales force in both the U.S. and
our U.K. operations,
10
and increased advertising expense of $141,000, as part of our strategic decision to increase
investments in our sales and marketing programs. Marketing and selling expense as a percentage of
net sales for the fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were 27% and 16%, respectively.
Research and Development.
Research and development expense primarily includes internal labor
costs, as well as expenses associated with third-party vendors performing validation and
investigative research regarding our products and development activities. Research and development
expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 increased to $229,000 from $203,000 for the comparable
quarter of last fiscal year. The increase in research and development expense relates primarily to
increased project costs to develop and enhance new and existing products of $27,000. Research and
development expense as a percentage of net sales for the fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2007
and 2006 were 3%.
General and Administrative.
General and administrative expense primarily includes payroll
expense relating to our management and accounting, information technology and human resources
staff, as well as fees and expenses of outside legal counsel, accounting advisors and auditors.
General and administrative expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 decreased 21% to $1,615,000
from $2,049,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease in general and
administrative expense is primarily related to a decrease of $920,000 of stock-based compensation
expense related to stock options in accordance with the reporting requirements of SFAS 123(R),
offset by increases in professional fees of $310,000 related to our annual quality compliance, year
end audit and preparation for compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and an increase
in salaries and wages of $47,000. General and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales
for the fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were 20% and 27%, respectively.
Interest Income.
Interest income for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 increased 504% to
$453,000 from $75,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The increase in interest
income reflects significantly higher cash and marketable securities positions for the entire
quarter compared to increased cash balances for a portion of the quarter in fiscal 2007 as a result
of the lawsuit settlements with Premier and C.R. Bard.
Interest Expense
. Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 decreased to $149,000
from $160,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease in interest expense in
the first quarter of fiscal 2008 reflects decreases in debt outstanding from our purchase of
certain assets from Mentor Corporation and Coloplast A/S in June 2006 transactions as a result of
debt payments.
Income Taxes
. We had a history of pre-tax losses and until fiscal 2003 had not generated
taxable income. While we had pre-tax income in fiscal 2006, 2005, 2004 and 2003, we utilized a
portion of our net operating loss carryforward and therefore, no federal income taxes are due for
fiscal 2006, 2005, 2004 or fiscal 2003. During fiscal 2007, our taxable earnings were sufficient to
fully utilize the net operating loss carryforward of $21.0 million. Income taxes payable are a
result of taxable income remaining after net operating loss utilization. We established a deferred
tax asset of $454,000 in fiscal 2005. As a result of the asset acquisition discussed above,
management further reduced the valuation allowance by approximately $777,000 to reflect
managements revised and increased estimates of future taxable income. Since our 2007 taxable
earnings were sufficient to determine it more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be
realized, the valuation allowance was reduced to zero. As of September 30, 2007, we had no federal
net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income, since our earnings were
sufficient to fully utilize the net operating loss carryforward of $21.0 million during fiscal
2007. For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, we had an effective income tax rate of approximately 28% due to
a large portion of income being tax exempt. We normally expect the effective tax rate on operating income to be
in the range of 34-35%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $37.4 million at December 31, 2007
compared to $37.1 million at September 30, 2007. The increase in cash primarily resulted from cash
provided from operations and the sale of common stock upon exercise of options offset by capital
expenditures and repayment of long-term debt.
During the three-month period ended December 31, 2007, we generated $547,000 of cash in
operating activities compared to $39,359,000 of cash provided by operations during the comparable
period of the prior fiscal year. Increased net cash from operating activities in the first quarter
of fiscal 2008 primarily reflects net income before depreciation and decreases in accounts
receivable and increases in accounts payables, offset by increases in inventory and other current
assets and decreases in other current liabilities and income taxes payable. Accounts receivable
balances
11
during this period decreased 10% or $564,000, primarily as a result of increased collections.
Inventories increased 12% or $930,000, primarily as a result of building inventory to support the
increase in sales volume. Accounts payable increased 107% or $1,164,000 primarily reflecting timing
of expenses related to year end and fees associated with being a public company. Other current
liabilities decreased 20% or $405,000 primarily reflecting payments of annual executive bonuses.
Income tax payable decreased $637,000 in the current quarter related to various state tax payments.
In addition, capital expenditures during this period were $345,000 compared to $391,000 for the
comparable period last year.
In June 2006, in we entered into a $7,000,000 credit facility with U.S. Bank National
Association. The credit facility consists of a $5,000,000 term loan payable in five years and
accruing interest at a rate equal to 6.83%, and a revolving line of credit of up to $2,000,000,
maturing annually on March 31, 2008, with interest payable monthly at a floating rate based on the
quoted one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.60%. As of December 31, 2007, we had no borrowings under the
revolving line of credit and the term loan had an outstanding balance of $3,680,815. Our
obligations are secured by our assets, including accounts, general intangibles, inventory, and
equipment. The term loan agreement and revolving credit agreement require us to comply with
certain financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio and minimum working capital of
$8 million, and restrict certain additional indebtedness and liens. As of December 31, 2007, we were
not in compliance with one of the bank covenants related to our fixed charge coverage
ratio as a result of timing of tax payments associated with lawsuit settlements. We have obtained a waiver from U.S. Bank for this covenant.
We believe that our capital resources on hand at December 31, 2007, together with cash
generated from sales, will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital requirements for the
foreseeable future as described in the Liquidity and Capital Resources portion of Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007. In the event that additional financing is
needed, we may seek to raise additional funds through public or private financing, collaborative
relationships or other arrangements. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to
shareholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve significant restrictive covenants.
Collaborative arrangements, if necessary to raise additional funds, may require us to relinquish
our rights to certain of our technologies, products or marketing territories. Failure to raise
capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. There can be no assurance that such financing, if required, will be
available on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Information
Statements other than historical information contained herein constitute forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such
forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of terminology such as believe, may,
will, expect, anticipate, predict, intend, designed, estimate, should or continue
or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Such
forward-looking statements involve known or unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which
may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among other things, the following:
|
|
|
the uncertainty of market acceptance of new product introductions;
|
|
|
|
|
the uncertainty of gaining new strategic relationships;
|
|
|
|
|
the uncertainty of timing of revenues from private label sales (particularly with
respect to international customers);
|
|
|
|
|
the uncertainty of successfully integrating and growing our new UK operations and the
risks associated with operating an international business;
|
|
|
|
|
FDA and other regulatory review and response times;
|
|
|
|
|
the securing of Group Purchasing Organization contract participation;
|
|
|
|
|
the uncertainty of gaining significant sales from secured GPO contracts;
|
12
and other risk factors listed from time to time in our SEC reports, including, without limitation,
the section entitled Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September
30, 2007.
|
|
|
Item 3.
|
|
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
|
Our primary financial instrument market risk results from fluctuations in interest rates. Our
cash is invested in bank deposits and money market funds denominated in United States dollars and
British pounds. The carrying value of these cash equivalents approximates fair market value. Our
investments in marketable securities are subject to interest rate risk and the value thereof could
be adversely affected due to movements in interest rates. Our revolving line of credit bears
interest at a floating rate based on the quoted one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.60%. As of December 31,
2007, we had no borrowings under the revolving line of credit.
In future periods, we believe a greater portion of our revenues could be denominated in
currencies other than the U.S. dollar, thereby increasing our exposure to exchange rate gains and
losses on non-United States currency transactions. Sales through our subsidiary, Rochester
Medical, Ltd., are denominated in British pounds, and fluctuations in the rate of exchange between
the U.S. dollar and the British pound could adversely affect our financial results.
Otherwise, we do not believe our operations are currently subject to significant market risks
for interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices or other relevant market
price risks of a material nature. We do not currently use derivative financial instruments to
manage interest rate risk or enter into forward exchange contracts to hedge exposure to foreign
currencies, or any other derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In
the future, if we believe an increase in our currency exposure merits further review, we may
consider entering into transactions to mitigate that risk.

Item 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
. As of the end of the period covered by this
report (the Evaluation Date) we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based
upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of
the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act
is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
Commissions rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
. During our first fiscal quarter, there has been no change in
our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(f) under the Exchange
Act) that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are the plaintiff in a lawsuit titled Rochester Medical Corporation vs. C.R. Bard, Inc.;
Tyco International (US), Inc.; Tyco Health Care Group, L.P.; Novation LLC; VHA, Inc.; Premier,
