ROCHESTER MEDICAL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
March 31, 2009
Note A Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which have been derived
from the Companys audited financial statements as of September 30, 2008 and the unaudited March
31, 2009 and 2008 condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and
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 Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2008. 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 six-month
period ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending September 30, 2009.
Note B Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Net income (loss) per share is calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Statement No. 128,
Earnings Per Share.
The Companys basic net income (loss) per
share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) 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. Net loss per share is computed without consideration for any dilutive
securities. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator in the basic and diluted net income
(loss) per share calculation is as follows:

Employee stock options of 332,000 shares for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 and 280,000
shares for the six months ended March 31, 2009 and 30,000 shares for the six months ended March 31,
2008 were excluded from the diluted net income (loss) 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. Due to the net loss in the second quarter
4
ended March 31, 2008, diluted shares were the same as basic shares since the effect of the
options would have been anti-dilutive.
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 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).
Stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008
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 $478,000 ($354,000 net of tax) and $742,000 ($567,000 net of tax) of
related stock-based compensation expense for the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2009, and
approximately $535,000 ($391,000 net of tax) and $786,000 ($600,000 net of tax) of related
stock-based compensation expense for the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2008. This
stock-based compensation expense reduced both basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.03 and
$0.03 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $0.04 and $0.05 for the
six months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
As of March 31, 2009, $1,890,280 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 second quarter of fiscal 2009 and 2008, 212,000 and 204,500 shares were granted
respectively. 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 indicated periods.

Shares available for future stock option grants to employees and directors under existing
plans were 123,250 at March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2009, the aggregate intrinsic value of options
outstanding was $7,122,694, and the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercisable was
$6,520,117. Total intrinsic value of options exercised was $577,497 for the three months ended
March 31, 2009.
Note D Marketable Securities
As of March 31, 2009, the Company had $29.0 million invested in marketable securities. The
marketable securities primarily consist of $26.8 million invested in U.S. treasury bills and $2.2
million invested in a mutual fund. The Company is currently reporting an unrealized loss of
$1,053,096 related to the mutual fund as a result of the recent fluctuations in the credit markets
impacting the current market value. The Company considers the current impairment in value to be
temporary as it has the intent and ability to hold this investment long enough to avoid realizing
any significant losses.
Marketable securities are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value, with
unrealized gains or losses included as a separate component of shareholders equity. The cost and
fair value of available-for-sale securities were as follows:

Losses recognized are recorded in
interest expense
, in the consolidated statements of
operations. Gains and losses from the sale of investments are calculated based on the specific
identification method.
Effective October 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements
(SFAS
157), for financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each
reporting period. SFAS 157 requires that fair value measurements be classified and disclosed in one
of the following three categories:
Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2. Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as
quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially
the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3. Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability and that are significant to
the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The
adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial
statements. The following table presents information about the Companys financial assets and
liabilities that are measured at fair value

on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2009, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation
techniques utilized to determine such value:

Note F Income Taxes
On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the realizability of our deferred tax assets and
assess the requirements for a valuation allowance. No valuation allowance has been recorded
against the net deferred tax assets in 2009 or 2008 because there is sufficient future projected
income as well as excess income from 2007 and 2008 to sustain that the deferred tax assets will
more likely than not be able to be utilized. For the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company had
an effective income tax rate of 49.58%. The tax rate is in line with the Companys expectation due
to increased volume of incentive stock option activity, of which the book expense is a permanent
add-back item for tax purposes. In future periods, absent of true-up entries, the Company expects
the effective tax rate on U.S. income to be in the range of 40-42%, and the effective tax rate on
worldwide income may fluctuate depending upon inter-company eliminations and UK operation
profitability.
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty
in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109
(FIN 48) on October 1, 2007. FIN 48 creates a
single model to address uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies the accounting for income taxes
by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being
recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition,
measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and
transition. At the adoption date, October 1, 2007, the Company did not have a material liability
under FIN 48 for unrecognized tax benefits. Since adoption, the Company has recognized an
approximately $239,000 increase in liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
It is the Companys practice to recognize penalties and/or interest to income tax matters in
income tax expense. As of March 31, 2009, the Company did not have a material amount of accrued
interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company is subject to income tax examinations from time to time in the U.S. Federal
jurisdiction, as well as in the United Kingdom and various state jurisdictions. The Internal
Revenue Service is examining the Companys income tax return for the fiscal year ended September
30, 2007. It is possible that this examination may be resolved within the next twelve months. Due
to the potential for resolution of the Federal examination and the expiration of various statutes
of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the Companys gross unrecognized tax benefit may
change.
7
Although the outcome of this matter cannot currently be determined, the Company believes adequate
provision has been made for any potential unfavorable financial statement impact.
Note G Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the
identifiable net assets acquired as prescribed by SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets
(SFAS 142). Under this standard, goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives
are not amortized. SFAS 142 also requires, at a minimum, an annual assessment of the carrying
value of goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite useful lives. If the carrying value of
goodwill or an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized.
The Company tests annually for impairment on June 30
th
of each fiscal year or more
frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The
recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of
an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If
the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment
charge would be recognized by the amount that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair
value of the asset. The decrease in value of goodwill as of March 31, 2009 is strictly related to
the change in foreign currency exchange rates in the United Kingdom.
Note H Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income and all other nonowner changes in
shareholders equity during a period. The comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months
ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 consists of the following:

Note I Line of Credit and Long-Term Debt
In June 2006, in conjunction with an asset purchase agreement with Coloplast A/S, 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 and payable in five equal annual
installments of $1,068,000 payable annually on June 2. The Company discounted the note at 6.90%
which reflected the Companys cost of borrowing at the date of the purchase agreement and the
discount is being amortized over the life of the note. The liability balance was $2,796,929 at
March 31, 2009.
In June 2006, the Company entered into a $7,000,000 credit facility with U.S. Bank National
Association. The credit facility consisted of a $5,000,000 term loan payable in five years and
accruing interest at a rate equal to 4.77%, and a revolving line of credit of up to $2,000,000,
maturing annually on March 31, with interest payable monthly at a floating rate based on the quoted
one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.60%. In March 2009, the Company paid off the entire term loan and
terminated the revolving line of credit.
In February 2009, the Company entered into a $14,000,000 credit facility with UBS Financial.
The credit facility consists of a revolving line of credit of up to $14,000,000 with interest
accruing monthly at a floating rate based on the quoted one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.50%. As of
March 31, 2009, the Company had an outstanding balance of $2,000,000 under the revolving line of
credit. The Companys obligations under the credit facility are payable on demand and are secured
by its investments in marketable securities held at UBS.

Note J Litigation Settlements
The Company was 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 alleged 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

Note K Share Repurchase Program
On March 3, 2009, the Company announced its intention to repurchase some of its outstanding
common shares pursuant to its previously authorized share repurchase program. Up to 2,000,000

the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company repurchased 110,653 common shares at an average
price of $9.56 per share. Total cash consideration for the repurchased shares was approximately
$1,100,000. As of March 31, 2009, there remained 1,847,347 shares that may be purchased under the
program.
Note L Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No.141 (revised 2007),
Business Combinations
(SFAS
141(R)). SFAS 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 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 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 SFAS No.160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51
(SFAS 160). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and
reporting standards for noncontrolling interests in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a
subsidiary. Minority interests will be
9
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 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 160 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of
operations.
In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2,
Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 157
(FSP FAS 157-2). FSP FAS 157-2 defers the implementation of SFAS No. 157 for
certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. The portion of SFAS No. 157 that has been
deferred by FSP FAS 157-2 will be effective for the Company beginning in the second fiscal quarter
of fiscal year 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP FAS 157-2 will have a material
impact on its financial position or results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,
Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS No. 133
, which changes the disclosure requirements for
derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities will be required to provide enhanced
disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative
instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related
interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys
financial position, financial performance and cash flows. This statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of this statement.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3,
Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible
Assets
(FSP FAS 142-3), which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal
or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under
FASB Statement No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for fiscal
years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for the Company is the first quarter of fiscal
year 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 will have
on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162,
The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles
, which changed the framework for selecting accounting principles in conformity with
GAAP. The GAAP hierarchy will now be included in the accounting literature established by the FASB.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board (APB) 28-1,
Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
. The FSP amends SFAS No. 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
to require an entity to provide disclosures
about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information and annual reporting
periods. This FSP is to be applied prospectively and is effective for interim and annual periods
ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.
The Company will include the required disclosures in its interim financial statements for the
quarter ending June 30, 2009.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2,
Recognition and Presentation of
Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.
The guidance applies to investments in debt securities for which
other-than-temporary impairments may be recorded. If an entitys management asserts that it does
not have the intent to sell a debt security and it is more likely than not that it will not have to
sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, then an entity may separate
other-than-temporary impairments into two components: 1) the amount related to credit losses
(recorded in earnings), and 2) all other amounts (recorded in other comprehensive income). This FSP
is to be applied prospectively and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June
15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company will
adopt this FSP for its quarter ending June 30, 2009. There is no expected impact on the
consolidated financial statements.
Item 2. 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 include 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, which are referred to as branded sales, and also
supply our
10
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 2009, 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. Our advanced products will eventually contribute a higher profit margin than our base products,
and our Rochester Medical branded products contribute a higher profit margin than private label
sales, particularly branded sales in the United Kingdom and elsewhere in Europe. Increasing our
percentage of sales of branded products versus private label sales
over time will have a positive
impact on our gross margin. Branded sales accounted for 65% of total sales for the quarter ended
March 31, 2009, and 66% of total sales year to date, compared to 62% for the quarter ended March
31, 2008 and 66% for the same period last year. Advanced products accounted for 11% of total sales
for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, and 12% of total sales year to date, compared to 12% for the
quarter ended March 31, 2008 and 11% for the same period last year.
The following discussion pertains to our results of operations and financial position for the
quarters and six month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. Results of the periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the complete year. For the second quarter
ended March 31, 2009, we reported net income of $0.03 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of
$0.01 per diluted share for the same period last year. Loss from operations was $90,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to a loss of $429,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008,
while net income was $361,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to a net loss of
$167,000 for the same period last year.
As of March 31, 2009, we had $5.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $29 million
invested in marketable securities. The marketable securities primarily consist of $26.8 million
invested in U.S. treasury bills and $2.2 million invested in a mutual fund. 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 investment choices, however, are conservative and
are intended to reduce the risk of loss or any material impact on our financial condition. We are
currently reporting an unrealized loss $1,053,096 related to the mutual fund as a result of the
recent fluctuations in the credit markets impacting the current
market value. We consider this
unrealized loss temporary as we have the intent and ability to hold
this investment long enough
to avoid realizing any significant losses.

Three Month and Six Month Periods Ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008
Net Sales.
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 decreased 8% to $8,445,000 from
$9,215,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The sales decrease primarily resulted
from a decrease in sales of private label products and a decrease in branded sales in the U.K.,
offset by slightly higher sales of branded products domestically and increased branded sales
internationally outside of the U.K. Domestic sales of branded products increased by 5.6% for the
quarter compared to the same period last year. Our international branded sales decreased 2.3%
compared to the same period last year, primarily as a result of the change in foreign currency
exchange rates in the United Kingdom as the U.S. dollar was significantly stronger versus the
British pound, thereby affecting total branded sales given the significant volume of our branded
product sales in the United Kingdom. Private label sales were down 16% from last year. Private
label sales accounted for approximately 35% of total sales. Management continues to focus on
growth in branded sales, and total branded sales volumes of intermittent catheters and Foley
catheters increased for the second quarter compared to last fiscal
year. In line with our strategic decision to increase investments in sales and marketing to drive growth in branded sales,
we have initiated direct sales efforts into Japan and mainland Europe.
Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 2009 decreased 3% to $16,881,000 from $17,440,000
for the comparable six-month period of last fiscal year. The decrease in sales primarily resulted
from a decrease in domestic private label sales and a decrease in branded sales in the U.K. as a
result of the change in the foreign currency exchange
12
rate in the United Kingdom of the British pound to the U.S. dollar from last year, offset by
increased sales of private label products internationally and branded sales internationally outside
of the U.K. Sales of branded products domestically were virtually flat compared to the same period
last year.
Gross Margin
. Our gross margin as a percentage of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal
2009 was 52% compared to 46% for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The increase in gross
margin this quarter was primarily due to increased sales of higher margin product, including male
external catheters and script easy in the U.K. and other international markets, and favorable
manufacturing variances and efficiencies, partially offset by the change in the foreign currency
exchange rate in the United Kingdom of the British pound to the U.S. dollar and increased medical
claim costs. Gross margin for the six months ended March 31, 2009 increased slightly to 49% from
48%. Factors affecting the comparative six month gross margin are generally consistent with those
discussed above for the current quarter.
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 second quarter of fiscal 2009 increased 3% to
$2,448,000 from $2,380,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The increase in
marketing and selling expense is primarily due to increased sales personnel and related expenses
incurred through the addition of sales and marketing staff in both our U.S. and U.K. operations,
and increased advertising expense related to marketing in the U.K. and the U.S. of our new
intermittent catheter and preparation for our advanced Foley catheter launch, partially offset by
the change in the foreign currency exchange rate in the United Kingdom of the British pound to the
U.S. dollar from last year. Marketing and selling expense as a percentage of net sales for the
fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was 29% and 26%, respectively.
Marketing and selling expense for the six months ended March 31, 2009 increased 9% to
$5,014,000 from $4,605,000 for the comparable six-month period of last fiscal year. Factors
affecting the comparative six-month expense levels are generally consistent with those discussed
above for the current quarter.
Research and Development.
Research and development expense primarily includes internal labor
costs, as well as expense associated with third-party vendors performing validation and
investigative research regarding our products and development activities. Research and development
expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 decreased 2% to $299,000 from $304,000 for the
comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease in research and development expense relates
primarily to decreased expenses related to testing and development of new and enhanced products as
we introduced our new line of intermittent catheters earlier this year. Research and development
expense as a percentage of net sales for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was 4%
and 3%, respectively.
Research and development expense for the six months ended March 31, 2009 increased 16% to
$617,000 from $533,000 for the comparable six-month period of last fiscal year. The increase in
research and development expense for the six months ended March 31, 2009 primarily relates to
increased testing and development of new products during the first quarter of fiscal 2009.
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 and accounting advisors. General and
administrative expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 decreased 13% to $1,757,000 from
$2,017,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease in general and
administrative expense is primarily related to decreased legal fees, stock option compensation
expenses, audit related expenses and the change in the foreign currency exchange rate in the United
Kingdom of the British pound to the U.S. dollar from last year, offset by increased professional
fees related to tax matters. General and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales for
the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was 21% and 22%, respectively.
General and administrative expense for the six months ended March 31, 2009 decreased 14% to
$3,123,000 from $3,632,000 for the comparable six-month period of last fiscal year. The decrease
in general and administrative expenses for the six month period primarily reflects a decrease in
legal, audit fees and stock option compensation expenses from the prior year.
13
Interest Income.
Interest income for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 decreased 90% to
$34,000 from $356,000 for the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease in interest
income reflects significantly lower interest rates on investments.
Interest income for the six months ended March 31, 2009 decreased 75% to $202,000 from
$809,000 for the comparable six-month period of last fiscal year. Factors affecting the
comparative six-month interest income are generally consistent with those discussed above for the
current quarter.
Interest Expense
. Interest expense for the second quarter of fiscal 2009 decreased $48,000 to
$80,000 from the comparable quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease in interest expense reflects
lower amounts of debt as a result of quarterly debt payments.
Interest expense for the six months ended March 31, 2009 decreased $114,000 to $164,000 from
$278,000 for the comparable six-month period of last fiscal year. The decrease in interest
expenses for the six month period are generally consistent with those discussed above for the
current quarter.
Income Taxes
. For the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we had an effective income tax rate of
approximately 49.6%. The tax rate is in line with our expectation due to the increased volume of
incentive stock option activity, of which the book expense is a permanent add-back item for tax
purposes and increased our effective tax rate by 9% for the quarter. In future periods of
taxable earnings, we expect to report an income tax provision using an effective tax rate in the
range of 40 42% for U.S. income. The effective tax rate on worldwide income may fluctuate
depending upon inter-company eliminations and U.K. operation profitability.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $34.9 million at March 31, 2009
compared to $37.0 million at September 30, 2008. The decrease in cash primarily resulted from
capital expenditures, repayment of long-term debt and the repurchase of common stock offset by cash
provided from operations, borrowing on our new credit facility and the sale of common stock upon
exercise of options. As of March 31, 2009, we had $29 million invested in marketable securities as
a result of the cash settlements received from lawsuits. The marketable securities primarily
consist of $26.8 million invested in U.S. treasury bills and $2.2 million invested in a mutual
fund. We are currently reporting an unrealized loss $1,053,096 related to the mutual fund as a
result of the recent fluctuations in the credit markets impacting the current market value. We
consider this unrealized loss temporary as we have the intent and ability to hold this
investment long enough to avoid realizing any significant losses.
During the six-month period ended March 31, 2009, we generated $982,000 of cash in operating
activities compared to $539,000 of cash being used by operations during the comparable period of
the prior fiscal year. Increased net cash from operating activities in the first six months of
fiscal 2009 primarily reflects net income before depreciation and decreases in accounts receivable
and other current assets and increases in other current liabilities, offset by increases in
inventories and decreases in accounts payable. Accounts receivable balances during this period
decreased 2% or $142,000, primarily due to increased collections. Inventories increased 6% or
$535,000. Accounts payable decreased 28% or $605,000, primarily reflecting timing of expenses.
Other current liabilities increased 2% or $25,000, primarily reflecting payments of annual
executive bonuses offset by timing of normal operating accruals. In addition, capital expenditures
during this period were $715,000 compared to $668,000 for the comparable period last year.
In June 2006, we entered into a $7,000,000 credit facility with U.S. Bank National
Association. The credit facility consisted of a $5,000,000 term loan payable in five years and
accruing interest at a rate equal to 4.77%, and a revolving line of credit of up to $2,000,000,
maturing annually on March 31, with interest payable monthly at a floating rate based on the quoted
one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.60%. In March 2009, we paid off the entire term loan and terminated
the revolving line of credit.
In February 2009, we entered into a $14,000,000 credit facility with UBS Financial. The
credit facility consists of a revolving line of credit of up to $14,000,000 with interest accruing
monthly at a floating rate based on the quoted one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.50%. As of March 31,
2009, we had an outstanding balance of $2,000,000 under the revolving line of credit. Our
obligations under the credit facility are payable on demand and are secured by our investments in
marketable securities held at UBS.
14
We believe that our capital resources on hand at March 31, 2009, 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, 2008. In the event that additional financing is needed, we may
seek to raise additional funds through public or private financing. Any additional equity
financing may be dilutive to shareholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve
significant restrictive covenants. 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.

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

different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors
include, among other things, the following:
|
|
|

adversely affect the level of demand for our products and increased volatility in foreign
exchange rates;
|
|
|
|
|
the uncertainty of market acceptance of new product introductions;
|
|
|
|

the uncertainty of timing of revenues from private label sales (particularly with
respect to international customers);
|
|
|
|
|

with operating an international business;
|
|
|
|
|

|
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, 2008.
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 investment choices, however, are
conservative in light of current economic conditions, and include primarily U.S. treasury bills to
reduce the risk of loss or any material impact on our financial condition. Our revolving line of
credit bears interest at a floating rate based on the quoted one-month LIBOR rate plus 0.50%. As of
March 31, 2009, our revolving line of credit had a balance of $2,000,000.
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
15
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 second 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
