The Corporation is a global supplier of integrated products and services consisting primarily of surgical implants, instruments and cases to orthopedic and other medical device companies.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Corporation, its results of operations and cash flows. The Corporations results are subject to seasonal fluctuations. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Corporations Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2005.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on our results of operations or financial position.
The Corporations year end is the 52 or 53 week period ending the Saturday closest to December 31. Fiscal year 2006 and 2005 are 52 week years. As such, interim quarters are 13 weeks long ending the Saturday closest to March 31, June 30, or September 30. References in these consolidated financial statements to the three months ended refer to these financial periods, respectively.

4. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets subject to amortization consist of technology, non-compete and customer related intangible assets acquired in connection with our acquisitions of Mettis (UK) Limited on June 11, 2003 and Riley Medical on May 2, 2006. These assets ($22,451, net, at July 1, 2006 and $12,656, net, at December 31, 2005) are being amortized using the straight-line method over 4 to 25 years. The Corporation has $5,086 and $3,671 of indefinite lived intangible assets as July 1, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.
5. Long-term Debt
In conjunction with the Riley Medical acquisition, the Corporations lending arrangements were amended in June 2006 to provide for a new term loan of $40 million, which requires annual principal payments of $200 in the remainder of fiscal 2006 and $400, $400, $400, $11,400 and $27,200 over the next five fiscal years, respectively.

6. New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting (SFAS) No. 151, Inventory Costsan amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 43, Chapter 4. The Statement clarifies that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials should be recognized as current-period expenses regardless of how abnormal the circumstances. In addition, this Statement requires that the allocation of fixed overheads to the costs of conversion be based upon normal production capacity levels. The Statement is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. This Statement did not have a material effect on the Corporations financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires the recognition of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by relevant taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on its financial statements.
7. Stock-Based Compensation
The Corporation adopted SFAS 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment on January 1, 2006 (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R, which revised SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, superseded APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Statement 123R requires that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options be recognized in the financial statements based upon their fair value. The Corporation had previously followed APB No. 25 in accounting for its stock options and accordingly, no compensation cost had been previously recognized.
The Corporation has adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective method. Compensation cost has been recognized for all share-based payments in the consolidated financial statements in 2006 based upon the fair value of the stock or option grant. Prior period results have not been restated.
As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, the Corporations income before income taxes and net income for the six months ended July 1, 2006 are $72 and $43 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under Opinion 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended July 1, 2006 would not have changed from $0.46 if the Corporation had not adopted SFAS 123R.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Corporation presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. SFAS 123R requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. The $1,062 excess tax benefit classified as a financing cash inflow would have been classified as an operating cash inflow if the Corporation had not adopted SFAS 123R.

Statement 123, as amended, required pro forma presentation as if compensation costs had been expensed under the fair value method. For purpose of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of stock options at the grant date is amortized to expense over the vesting period. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share as if compensation expense had been recognized (in thousands, except for per share amounts):

The compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized is approximately $44, net, and the weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately one year. During the six month period ended July 1, 2006, the Corporation issued 145 shares of common stock through the exercise of stock options, 29 shares of common stock through the exercise of warrants and 10 shares of common stock were issued under the Employee Stock Savings Plan.
8. Income Taxes
The Corporations effective tax rate was 31.9% for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 as compared to 33.9% for the same periods in 2005. The decrease in the rate from the 2005 effective tax rate was primarily due to recognizing state economic development credits and other tax credits in the second quarter of 2006. The 2006 rate would have been lower had the expiration of the Federal research tax credit on December 31, 2005 not occurred. The United States government has not yet reinstated this tax credit bill.

9. Segment Reporting
The Corporation primarily designs, develops and manufactures implants and related surgical instruments and cases for orthopedic device companies and companies in other medical device markets such as dental, osteobiologic and endoscopy. The Corporation also has a special services business serving primarily aerospace customers, which does not meet the quantitative disclosure requirements of SFAS 131. The Corporation manages its business and operates in a single reportable business segment. Because of the similar economic characteristics of the operations, including the nature of the products, comparable level of FDA regulations, same or similar customers, those operations have been aggregated following the provisions of SFAS 131 for segment reporting purposes.
The Corporation is a multi-national corporation with operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and France. As a result, the Corporations financial results can be impacted by currency exchange rates in the foreign markets in which the Corporation sells its products. While exposure to variability in foreign currency exists, the Corporation does not believe it is significant to its operations and any variability is somewhat offset through the location of its manufacturing facilities. Revenue is attributed to geographic locations based on the location to which we ship our products.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Overview
We are the worlds largest independent provider of implants and related instruments and cases to orthopedic device manufacturers. We also design, develop and produce these products for companies in other segments of the medical device market, including dental, osteobiologic and endoscopy sectors, and provide limited specialized products and services to non-healthcare markets, primarily the aerospace industry.
We offer our customers Total Solutions for complete implant systemsimplants, instruments and cases. While our revenue to date has been derived primarily from the sale of implants, instruments and cases separately, or instruments and cases together, our ability to provide Total Solutions for complete implant systems has already proven to be attractive to our customers and we expect this capability will provide us with growth opportunities. In addition, we expect that our Total Solutions capability will increase the relative percentage of value added products that we supply to our customers.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, provides additional information about our business, operations and financial condition.
On May 2, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Riley Medical Inc., a privately-owned company based in Auburn, Maine, for $45.6 million in cash, subject to adjustment. Riley Medical Inc. is a manufacturer of standard and custom cases, trays and containers for the medical device industry with locations in the United States and Switzerland. Riley Medical innovative case products, such as the Flashpak, have been well received by our customers. Riley Medical products have allowed us to realize a number of cross-selling synergies and additional market reach into markets such as spine and endoscopy.
During the second quarter 2006, our revenue was impacted by the slowdown in demand for major orthopedic joints throughout the industry. The orthopedic environment, from our perspective, went through a strong year of revenue growth in 2005 with a large volume of new customer product launches. Procedure volumes were strong and product mix was favorable for our customers. In the first half of 2006, we saw a reduction in new product launches from our customers and slower growth on procedure volume for reconstructive joints.
As a key supplier to the original equipment manufactures in the orthopedic industry for these joints, we believe that we are disproportionately affected by these industry developments. As our customers growth accelerates, we tend to grow faster and when their growth decelerates, we tend to slow down more rapidly. These results were further impacted by a reduction in our customer product launches. Fewer customer launches disproportionately impact our sales of instrument and cases as demand for these products is related to launches of new products. While the current market conditions impact the entire supply chain, we remain confident that we will continue as the leading provider to the orthopedic market with implants, instruments and cases. Further, we believe we remain well positioned to respond to an upturn.
We believe it is important to continue with the main strategic intent of our business and use our strength and market position. We are taking advantage of this slower period to extend our Total Solutions approach into other markets, as well as to increase acquisition activity. In particular we continue to expand our engineering resources that produce and provide closer and critical customer relationships on the development of new products. In addition, our focus to increase revenue of finished implants to our current customers progressed in the quarter to over 10% of implant revenue in the quarter. We are developing our activities in Switzerland through the Riley Medical acquisition and are exploring opportunities in Asia to support our global expansion initiative. This local presence in the global marketplace allows us to be closer to our customer base, provide quicker response times and increase our value added services.

Second Quarter Results of Operations
Revenue. Revenue for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 decreased $5.4 million, or 7.7%, to $64.8 million from $70.2 million for the comparable 2005 period. Revenue for each of our principal product categories in these periods was as follows:

The $5.4 million reduction in revenue resulted from lower instrument and implant revenue of $6.5 million and $2.4 million respectively, as a result of the slowdown in demand for major orthopedic joints throughout the industry. Because of our position in the supply chain for these joints, we are disproportionately affected by these industry developments. These results were further impacted by a reduction in our customer product launches. These reductions were partially offset by increased case sales of $0.7 million as a result of $3.4 million of sales from the Riley Medical acquisition. The Other category increase of $2.8 million was driven by the continued strength in the aerospace industry.
Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 decreased $4.5 million, or 21.2%, to $16.9 million from $21.4 million for the comparable 2005 period. This decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by reduced gross margin rate as the gross margin was 26.1% for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 compared to 30.6% for the comparable 2005 period. The decline in gross margin as a percentage of sales was primarily driven by higher fixed costs from our significant investment in 2005 capacity expansion across our global facilities and a more pronounced sales reduction in our higher margin products within several of our product segments. We view our global infrastructure as a competitive strength, enabling us to respond quickly to our customers high volume demand on short notice.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 increased $0.1 million, or 2.0%, to $6.9 million from $6.8 million for the comparable 2005 period. While a number of initiatives to cut costs across our global facilities did result in a reduction of costs, the addition of the acquisition of Riley Medical resulted in a slight increase in our SG&A costs for the quarter. We also had an increase in expenses from costs related to additional stock compensation expenses related from the adoption of SFAS 123R and restricted stock awards granted since the second quarter of 2005. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 10.6% of revenue for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 from 9.6% of revenue for the comparable 2005 period.
Other Expense. Interest expense for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 increased $0.2 million, or 19.7%, to $0.9 million from $0.8 million for the comparable 2005 period. This increase reflects the $40 million senior term debt addition related to the acquisition of Riley Medical. This increase was partialy offset by the reduction in outstanding capital lease obligations and existing senior term debt through normal amortization.
The derivatives valuation (gains) losses consist of interest rate swap valuations used to mitigate the effect of changing interest rates on net income and foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the effect of changes in the foreign exchange rates on net income. The increase in the loss for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 versus the comparable 2005 period is due to market fluctuations in these contracts, which are not designated as hedges under SFAS 133.
14
Also included in Other is a $1.2 million gain on the sale of surplus land adjacent to our Sheffield, UK facility. This resulted in an after tax gain of $0.8 million.
Provision for Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate was 28.4% for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 as compared to 33.9% for the comparable 2005 period. Provision for income taxes decreased by $1.4 million, or 31.3%, to $3.0 million for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 from $4.4 million for the comparable 2005 period. This decrease was primarily due to an Indiana state EDGE tax credit of $0.3 million realized in the second quarter of 2006. This credit, is part of a $1.5 million overall grant that is available through 2013. We did not record a Federal research and development tax credit in the second quarter 2006 since the United States government has not yet reinstated Section 41 of the U.S. tax code.
Six Months Results of Operations
Revenue. Revenue for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 increased $0.5 million, or 0.3%, to $134.4 million from $133.9 million for the comparable 2005 period. Revenue for each of our principal product categories in these periods was as follows:

The $0.5 million increase in revenue resulted from increased implant, case, and non-healthcare/other revenue of $1.3 million, $1.6 million, and $5.8 million, respectively. These increases are a result of increased implant finishing volume, the addition of $3.4 million from the Riley Medical acquisition and the continued strength in the aerospace industry. These increases were partially offset by decreased instrument revenue of $8.2 million due to slower demand from customers as discussed in the Overview section.
Gross Profit. Gross profit for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 decreased $3.6 million, or 8.8%, to $37.2 million from $40.8 million for the comparable 2005 period. This decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by a reduced gross margin as the gross margin was 27.7% for the three month period ended July 1, 2006 compared to 30.5% for the comparable 2005 period. The decline in gross margin as a percentage of sales of 2.8% was primarily driven by higher fixed costs from our 2005 expansion across our global facilities and a more pronounced sales reduction in our higher margin products within several of our product segments.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 increased $0.2 million, or 1.7%, to $13.9 million from $13.7 million for the comparable 2005 period. While a number of initiatives to cut costs across our global facilities resulted in a reduction of costs, the addition of the acquisition of Riley Medical drove a slight increase in our SG&A costs for the quarter. We also had an increase in expenses primarily resulted from costs related to additional stock compensation expenses related from the adoption of SFAS 123R and restricted stock awards granted since the second quarter of 2005. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 10.4% of revenue for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 from 10.2% of revenue for the comparable 2005 period. This 0.2% increase as a percentage of revenue was attributable to the addition of Riley Medical acquisition partially offset by controlled spending.
15
Other Expense. Interest expense for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 decreased $0.1 million, or 7.4%, to $1.6 million from $1.7 million for the comparable 2005 period. This decrease primarily reflects the decrease in outstanding capital lease obligations and previously held senior term debt through normal amortization but was partially offset by the increase of interest from our $40 million new senior term debt from the Riley Medical acquisition.
The derivatives valuation (gains) losses consist of interest rate swap valuations used to mitigate the effect of changing interest rates on net income and foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the effect of changes in the foreign exchange rates on net income. The decrease in the gain for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 versus the comparable 2005 period is due to market fluctuations in these contracts, which are not designated as hedges under SFAS 133.
Also included in Other is a $1.2 million gain on the sale of surplus land adjacent to our Sheffield, UK facililtiy. This resulted in an after tax gain of $0.8 million.
Provision for Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate was 31.9% for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 as compared to 33.9% for the comparable 2005 period. Provision for income taxes decreased by $0.8 million, or 9.9%, to $7.5 million for the six month period ended July 1, 2006 from $8.4 million for the comparable 2005 period, due primarily to lower pre-tax earnings and the addition of the Indiana EDGE tax credit of $0.3, recorded in the second quarter of 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of cash in the six month period ended July 1, 2006 were cash generated from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, income tax benefits and proceeds from the exercise of common stock options. Principal uses of cash in the six month period ended July 1, 2006 included working capital, capital expenditures and debt service. We expect that our principal uses of cash in the future will be to finance working capital, to pay for capital expenditures, to service debt and to fund potential mergers and acquisitions. We completed an acquisition of Riley Medical Inc. on May 2, 2006 for $45.6 million, subject to adjustment, through the use of the existing cash balances and a new $40.0 million senior debt facility.
Operating Activities We generated cash from operations of $14.6 million in the six month period ended July 1, 2006 compared to $23.0 million for the six month period ended July 2, 2005. Cash provided by operating activities in the six month period ended July 1, 2006 is primarily the result of a $22.7 million increase in net income, adjusted for non-cash items, such as depreciation expense, which was more than offset by increases in net working capital.
Uses of cash due to changes in working capital were $8.2 million in the six month period ended July 1, 2006. The primary uses of cash for working capital came from a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $9.6 million. A portion of the decrease in accounts payable was due to lower volume and lower capital expenditure purchases.
Investing Activities Capital expenditures were $9.0 million lower in the six month period ended July 1, 2006 compared to the six month period ended July 2, 2005. However, the Riley Medical acquisition accounted for a $45.6 million use of cash in 2006. We also sold a portion of land that was not needed for expansion near our Sheffield, United Kingdom facility for approximately $2.4 million
Financing Activities Financing activites generated $38.4 million of cash due primarily to the $40.0 million term loan obtained in conjunction with the Riley Medical acquisition.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures totaled $11.8 million for the six month ended July 1, 2006, compared to $20.8 million for the six month period ended July 2, 2005. Expenditures were primarily used to complete our new design and development facility in Warsaw, Indiana and maintain production capacity in all of our production facilities.
16
Debt and Credit Facilities
In connection with our May 2006 acquisition of Riley Medical, we entered into a $40.0 million senior secured credit facility five-year term loan. As part of an amendment and restatement of our senior credit facility, we negotiated a 25 basis point interest rate reduction for all of our outstanding senior debt.
As of July 1, 2006, we had an aggregate of $76.7 million of outstanding indebtedness, which consisted of $64.5 million of term loan borrowings outstanding under our senior credit facility, no borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility, $2.4 million of borrowings under our U.K. short-term credit facility and $9.8 million of capital lease obligations. We had no outstanding letters of credit as of July 1, 2006.
Our senior credit agreement contains various financial covenants, including covenants requiring a maximum total debt to EBITDA ratio, minimum EBITDA to interest ratio and a minimum EBITDA to fixed charges ratio. We were in compliance with our financial and restrictive covenants under the senior credit facility as of July 1, 2006.
We believe that cash flow from operating activities and borrowings under our senior credit facility will be sufficient to fund currently anticipated working capital, the debt associated with the acquisition of Riley Medical Inc. for approximately $45.6 million, planned capital spending and debt service requirements for the foreseeable future, including at least the next twelve months. We also review technology, manufacturing and other strategic acquisition opportunities regularly, which may require additional debt or equity financing.

Environmental
There have been no material changes from the information provided in the our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 includes a summary of the critical accounting policies we believe are the most important to aid in understanding its financial results. There have been no material changes to these critical accounting policies that impacted our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses during the six months ended July 1, 2006.
New Accounting Pronouncements
We adopted SFAS 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment on January 1, 2006 (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R, which revised SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, superseded APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Statement 123R requires that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options be recognized in the financial statements based upon their fair value. We had previously followed APB No. 25 in accounting for its stock options and accordingly, no compensation cost had been previously recognized.
We have adopted SFAS 123R using the modified prospective method. Compensation cost has been recognized for all share-based payments in the consolidated financial statements in 2006 based upon the fair value of the stock or option grant. Prior period results have not been restated.
As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, our income before income taxes and net income for the six months ended July 1, 2006 are $72 and $43 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under Opinion 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended July 1, 2006 would not have changed from $0.46 if we had not adopted SFAS 123R.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, we presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. SFAS 123R requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. The $1.1 million excess tax benefit classified as a financing cash inflow would have been classified as an operating cash inflow if we had not adopted SFAS 123R.
Statement 123, as amended, required pro forma presentation as if compensation costs had been expensed under the fair value method. For purpose of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of stock options at the grant date is amortized to expense over the vesting period.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires the recognition of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by relevant taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on its financial statements.
Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), have concluded that, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and designed to ensure that material information relating to the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries would be made known to them by others within those entities.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
During the quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except that in connection with the acquisition of Riley Medical, Inc. (See Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 for discussion of the acquisition and related financial data), we are still are in the process of integrating the Riley Medical operations and will be incorporating these operations as part of our internal controls. However, for purposes of this evaluation, the impact of this acquisition on our internal controls over financial reporting has been excluded.
None.
