INAMED CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2004
(millions)
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments which are, in our opinion, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted as allowed by Form 10-Q. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Inamed Corporations (Inamed or the Company) consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.
The Company
Inamed Corporation, a Delaware corporation, is a global health care company that develops, manufactures, and markets a diverse line of products that enhance the quality of peoples lives. We have three principal product lines (which, for financial reporting purposes, are considered to be one segment): breast aesthetics (consisting primarily of breast implants and tissue expanders for use in plastic and reconstructive surgery); facial aesthetics (consisting primarily of collagen and hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers for use in facial rejuvenation); and obesity intervention (consisting of products for use in treating severe and morbid obesity). Our manufacturing locations are in California, Costa Rica, and Ireland, and our administrative support functions are principally in California and Ireland. We sell our products through our staff of sales representatives in the U.S. and in our wholly owned foreign subsidiaries and, in certain countries, through independent distributors.
Common Stock Split
On October 30, 2003, the Board approved a three for two stock split of the Companys Common Stock in the form of a 50 percent stock dividend. The stock split was effected on December 15, 2003 for stockholders of record at the close of business on December 1, 2003. A total of 11,727,612 shares of common stock were issued in connection with the stock split. The par value of the shares was not changed from $0.01. All references in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to shares, per share amounts, stock option data and market prices of the Companys stock have been restated to reflect the stock split.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Inamed and its subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires Inamed to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, adequacy of allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets and goodwill, income taxes, litigation and warranties. Inamed bases its estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
8
readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist principally of cash in banks and highly liquid debt and equity instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less. Inamed maintains balances in high-quality financial institutions. In the U.S., these balances at times are in excess of federally insured limits.
Short-term Investments
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Company classifies its securities as held-to-maturity and reports them at cost without recognizing any unrealized gains or losses. Because of the Companys cash position and the short-term nature of the maturities, the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold these securities to their maturity dates. Securities that mature in three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. Those that mature over three months but within one year are classified as short-term investments. The Company is currently investing in high quality corporate debt securities and the cost of securities sold will be based on the specific identification method.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The amounts presented for long-term debt approximate fair value because the interest rate adjusts periodically based on current market rates.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Inamed maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of some of its customers to make required payments. The allowances for doubtful accounts are based on analysis of historical bad debts, customer credit-worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic trends, deterioration of the accounts-receivable aging, and changes in customer payment terms. If the financial condition of Inameds customers was to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company provides valuation reserves for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.
Current Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations
Inamed has sole or limited sources of supply for certain raw materials and finished goods that are significant. A change in suppliers could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect operating results.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is recorded on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to ten years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred, while significant improvements are capitalized. Asset retirements and dispositions are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 144 as described below.
Accounting for Long-Lived Assets
Inamed accounts for long-lived assets, other than goodwill, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long Lived Assets, which superseded SFAS No. 121 and certain sections of APB Opinion No. 30 specific to discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 classifies long-lived assets as either (1) to be held and used, (2) to be disposed of by other than sale, or (3) to be disposed of by sale. This standard introduces a probability-weighted cash flow estimation approach to address situations where alternative courses of

action to recover the carrying amount of a long-lived asset are under consideration or a range is estimated for the amount of possible future cash flows. SFAS No. 144 requires, among other things, that an entity review its long-lived assets and certain related intangibles for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Factors the Company considers important that could trigger an impairment review include substantial operating losses, significant negative industry trends and significant changes in how it uses an asset. Upon the determination that an impairment review is required the Company would compare the carrying amounts of the long-lived asset to its fair value, which is determined using a discounted cash flow model. This model requires estimates of future revenues, profits, capital expenditures, working capital and other relevant factors. These amounts are estimated by evaluating historical trends, current budgets, operating plans, and other industry data. If the assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment charge is the amount by which the assets carrying value exceeds its fair value. As with all cash flow models there is an inherent subjectivity. The assumptions listed above could be different from actual results which would in turn create a different valuation. If these assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges for those assets. With the exception of the manufacturing consolidation that commenced in 2002 (see Note 4), Inamed does not believe that any such changes have taken place. The Company will continue to monitor its long lived asset balances and conduct formal tests when impairment indicators are present.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. Other intangible assets consist primarily of purchased technology and patents. The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002. As a result, goodwill is no longer amortized, but was subjected to a transitional impairment analysis and is tested for impairment on an annual basis in October, or more frequently as impairment indicators arise. The test for impairment involves the use of estimates related to the fair values of the business operations with which goodwill is associated. In accordance with SFAS 142 the Company evaluates the fair value of the reporting unit in relation to the carrying value of goodwill. As long as the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the reporting units goodwill and no specific circumstances indicate a loss in value for goodwill, no impairment charge will be recognized. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of goodwill, the Company will measure the amount of the impairment loss and record an impairment charge based on a discounted cash flow model. Other intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives and are evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 144.
License and distribution rights In the normal course of business, the Company enters into collaborative license and distribution contracts. These collaborative agreements usually require the Company to pay up-front fees and milestone payments, some of which are significant. When the Company pays an up-front or milestone payment for these license and distribution rights, management evaluates the stage of the acquired technologys development to determine the appropriate accounting treatment. Payments for these rights made in advance of regulatory approval are evaluated for capitalization based upon certain factors including: the contract, the expected launch date of the product, the market acceptance of the product in other countries, competitive product information (including products using the same compounds, similar compounds, or products used for the same application), level of development, alternative future uses, clinical experience and regulatory information. Payments made to third parties subsequent to regulatory approval are capitalized. Capitalized rights are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization, and are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five to twenty-one years. Significant changes to any of the factors above may result in a reduction in the useful life of the license and an acceleration of related amortization expense. License rights are assessed periodically for impairment.
Product Warranties
The Company has an accrual for warranty programs for breast implant sales in the United States, Europe, and certain other countries. Management estimates the amount of potential future claims from these warranty programs based on actuarial analyses. Expected future obligations are determined based on the history of product shipments and claims and are discounted to a current value. The liability is included in both the current and long-term liabilities in the balance sheet. The U.S. plan in most cases provides product replacement and one thousand two hundred to two thousand four hundred dollars of financial assistance for surgical procedures within ten years of implantation. The warranty programs in non-U.S. markets have similar terms and conditions to the U.S. plan. The Company does not currently offer a warranty on its facial or health products and therefore no amount is included in the liability for those products. The Company does not warrant any level of aesthetic result and, as
10
required by government regulation, makes extensive disclosures concerning the risks of the use of its products and implantation surgery. Changes to actual claims and interest rates could have a material impact on the actuarial analysis which could materially impact Inameds reported expenses and results of operations. Substantially all of the product warranty liability arises from the U.S. warranty program.

Revenue Recognition
The Companys revenue is generated from the sale of its products to doctors, hospitals, clinics and distributors. The Company sells its products through a direct sales force in the U.S. and through a direct sales force and distributors internationally.
Inamed recognizes product revenue, net of sales discounts, returns and allowances, in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition and SFAS No. 48 Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists. Revenue is recognized when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred and all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is considered probable. Appropriate reserves are established for anticipated returns and allowances based on product history. The Company recognizes revenue when title to the goods and risk of loss transfer to customers provided there are no remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any matters requiring customer acceptance.
The Company allows for the return of product from doctors, hospitals, and clinics within a specified time frame, and records estimated sales returns as a reduction of sales in the same period revenue is recognized. Inamed calculates these sales provisions based upon historical experience with actual returns.
A portion of the Companys revenue is generated from consigned inventory maintained at doctors, hospitals, and clinic locations. The customer is contractually obligated to maintain a specific level of inventory and to notify Inamed upon use. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time the Company is notified by the customer that the product has been implanted.
Our sales to distributors are conducted under the same revenue recognition criteria as sales via our direct sales force. Distributors do not have explicit or implicit rights to return product and do not maintain consignment inventory.
Research and Development (R&D)
Inamed conducts its R&D internally as well as through contracts with other companies in the research and development of new products and processes. R&D expenses are comprised of the following types of costs incurred in performing research and development activities: salaries and benefits, allocated overhead, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing costs, regulatory costs, contract services, and other outside costs. In accordance with SFAS No. 2, Accounting for Research and Development Costs, all R&D costs are expensed as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation
Inamed has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. In accordance with SFAS No. 123, Inamed has elected the disclosure-only provisions related to employee stock options and follows the intrinsic value method in Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25 in accounting for stock options issued to employees. Under APB No. 25, compensation expense, if any, is recognized as the difference between the exercise price and the fair value of the common stock on the measurement date, which is typically the date of grant, and is recognized over the service period, which is typically the vesting period.
Inamed accounts for options and warrant grants to non-employees using the guidance prescribed by SFAS No. 123, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, and interpretation of APB No. 25, and Emerging Issue Task Force No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments that Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or In Conjunction with
11
Selling, Goods, or Services, whereby the fair value of such option and warrant grants are measured using the fair value at the earlier of the date at which the non-employees performance is completed or a performance commitment is reached.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 and provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent and frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based compensation. Inamed adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148 in the fourth quarter of 2002 and will adopt, upon the completion of the final FASB rules, the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.
Pro Forma Disclosures of the Effect of Stock-based Compensation
Pro forma information regarding results of operations and net income per share is required by SFAS No. 123, which also requires that the information be determined as if Inamed had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted-average assumption used for grants:

The option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the option. Because Inameds employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in managements opinion, the existing models do not provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
Had compensation costs for Inameds stock-based compensation plan been determined using the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plan calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, Inameds net income would have been decreased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of their operations are translated using the average exchange rates during the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustment is included in stockholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses are recorded in the consolidated statements of income. Accumulated foreign currency gains were $3.8 and $0.2, at June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the statutory marginal income tax rate in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the deferred income tax assets or liabilities from period to period. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is required if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowance should be sufficient to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Income taxes are determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is generally less than the U.S. Federal statutory rate, primarily because of lower tax rates in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions and research and development tax credits available in the United States. In accordance with FIN 18, Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods, discrete items are included in the period affected rather than being reflected in the annual effective tax rate. Included in the provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 is an estimated $6.9 income tax benefit for a legal settlement and related second quarter fees.
Interest Rate Swaps
On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities and SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activity, an Amendment of SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS Nos. 133 and 138 require that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. If the hedging criteria in SFAS No. 133 are met, the resulting valuation adjustments are included in stockholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax when no ineffectiveness exists. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) shall be reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings or when a cash flow hedge is discontinued because it is probable that the original forecasted transaction will not occur. (See Note 8 for a further discussion on the interest rate swap.)

Recent Pronouncements
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51, which was originally effective on July 1, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB deferred the effective date for applying the provision of FIN 46 to March 31, 2004 for interests held by public companies in variable interest entities or potential variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results from operations.
On March 31, 2004, the FASB issued an exposure draft, Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of SFAS No. 123 and 95. The exposure draft proposes to expense the fair value of share-based payments to employees beginning in 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this proposed standard on its financial statements.

Inamed recorded $5.1 of restructuring costs in the fourth quarter of 2002. This restructuring was undertaken to consolidate manufacturing facilities. The annual savings from the manufacturing consolidation is estimated to be a reduction in U.S. payroll and support costs of $10.0, with a corresponding increase in costs in Ireland of $4.3 and Costa Rica of $0.4, with a net savings of $5.3 per year. The savings are from the relocation to lower-cost manufacturing locations. The savings will be reflected in cost of goods sold on the income statement. The consolidation of operations was completed in the first quarter of 2004 and involved transitioning Santa Barbara-based manufacturing to the Companys facilities in Costa Rica and Ireland. Through June 30, 2004, the Company eliminated approximately 140 manufacturing positions in Santa Barbara and will eliminate approximately 10 more through the end of 2004. Approximately 80 of these positions were added in Ireland and Costa Rica through March 31, 2004. The majority of the costs relate to severance which has been and will be paid from the beginning of 2003 through 2005. Inamed has accounted for the restructuring in accordance with EITF 94-3 Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). As part of the manufacturing consolidation the Company accelerated the depreciation on certain assets with shortened useful lives. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, Inamed included $0.0 and $0.4, respectively, of accelerated depreciation charges in cost of goods sold. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, Inamed included $0.9 and $1.9, respectively, of accelerated depreciation charges in cost of goods sold. These assets were fully depreciated as of March 31, 2004. The Company does not expect any further material costs related to the 2002 restructuring. Through the six months ended June 30, 2004 a major contributor in the increase of the gross margin year over year was the savings generated as a result of the manufacturing consolidation. The savings generated were primarily the result of reduced payroll costs.
Inamed recorded $12.0 of restructuring costs in the first quarter of 2001. This restructuring was a series of events to reorganize senior management and to consolidate facilities and administrative functions. The Santa Barbara reduction was facilitated by certain manufacturing operations having moved to Inameds new facility in Costa Rica and the move of Santa Barbaras remaining manufacturing to a local facility. These costs were primarily employee severance costs which will be paid through 2005. Inamed does not expect any further material costs related to the 2001 restructuring.
A summary of activity related to the restructuring charges is as follows:

As of June 30, 2004, the Company no longer had an interest rate swap agreement. At June 30, 2003 Inamed had an interest rate swap agreement with a financial institution. The purpose of this agreement was to establish a hedge against interest rate fluctuations associated with Inameds variable interest rate debt outstanding at that time. Inamed had designated this derivative as a cash flow hedge and recorded the existing liability and unrecognized losses. The swap agreement fixed the interest rates at 9.815% on a $39.8 notional value. The swap required monthly interest payments to settle the differences in its fixed rates compared to one month LIBOR plus 3.0%. Inamed included these payments in interest expense.
As of June 30, 2003, the Company determined that it was probable that Inameds variable interest rate debt described above for which the hedge was utilized would be refinanced. Consequently, pursuant to SFAS No. 133 as amended, unrealized losses of $3.5 that had been previously included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were recorded as interest expense in the Companys income statement. In July 2003, the Company terminated the interest rate swap agreement in connection with the termination of the variable interest rate debt.
Interest income and interest expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were as follows:

NOTE 12 GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Inamed has adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Inamed discontinued amortizing goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives. Inamed performed its annual impairment test of goodwill using a market value approach during the fourth quarter of 2003 and determined that there was no impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. No events have occurred to trigger an impairment evaluation since the fourth quarter of 2003.
Goodwill was $151.1 and $151.2 as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
18
Net other intangible assets subject to amortization were $48.1 and $40.4 as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. These assets will continue to be amortized over their expected useful lives, which range from three to twenty one years. Other intangible assets not subject to amortization (trade names) were $4.1 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003. Total other intangible assets are as follows:

NOTE 14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in various litigation matters as a claimant and as a defendant. Inamed records any amounts recovered in these matters when collection is realized. Inamed records liabilities for claims against the Company when the losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Amounts recorded are based on reviews by outside counsel, in-house counsel, and management. Actual results could differ from estimates. See Legal Proceedings.
NOTE 15 LITIGATION
Effective June 21, 2004, the Company resolved its patent infringement lawsuit with Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Inc. (Ethicon) and entered into a settlement agreement regarding various patents related to gastric banding. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, Inamed paid Ethicon $17.2 in the second quarter of 2004, and, pursuant to a license arrangement included in the settlement agreement, will pay royalties to Ethicon on future United States sales of the LAP-BAND® System, initially at 7.5%. Prior to this settlement, Inamed accrued a royalty on U.S. sales at 1.2%. The 7.5% royalty will be reduced to 5.5% if Ethicon is able to obtain approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the marketing of an adjustable gastric band sometime in the future. Inamed will also pay Ethicon 3.5% on all future foreign sales of the LAP-BAND® System. The U.S. and international royalties payable will decrease to 2% after June 20, 2011, and all Inamed royalty obligations will expire no later than May 12, 2013. Inameds license is to Ethicons family of gastric banding patents which were at issue during the litigation.
The Company recorded a charge in the amount of $17.2 for the three months ended June 30, 2004, to reflect the settlement payment to Ethicon and related second quarter litigation costs and expenses. This charge is net of the previously accrued amounts and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other written and oral statements made from time to time by us, do not relate strictly to historical facts. These statements are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Words such as anticipate, believe, could, estimate, expect, forecast, intend, may, plan, possible, project, and should, or similar words or expressions, are intended to identify forward looking statements. This forward looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could materially alter results in the future from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. We caution you that such forward-looking statements are only predictions and that actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating such statements, you should specifically consider the various factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially, including those factors described below.

Readers are referred to the report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and other documents as filed by Inamed Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which identify important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report on Form 10-Q. The information contained in this Form 10-Q is a statement of our present intention, belief, or expectation and is based upon, among other things, the existing regulatory environment, industry conditions, market conditions and prices, the economy in general, and our assumptions. We may change our intention, belief, or expectation at any time and without notice, based upon any changes in such factors, in our assumptions or otherwise. We undertake no obligation to review or confirm analysts expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report on Form 10-Q and we expressly disclaim any duty to update the information contained in this Form 10-Q. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in this report, which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
By including any information in this Form 10-Q, we do not necessarily acknowledge that disclosure of such information is required by applicable law or that the information is material.

22
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates provides a discussion on our accounting policies that require critical judgments and estimates.
Company and Industry Overview
Inamed is a global health care company that develops, manufactures and markets a diverse line of products that enhance the quality of peoples lives. These products include breast implants and tissue expanders for use in plastic and reconstructive surgery, a range of dermal products to correct facial wrinkles and the LAP-BANDÒ System and BIBÒ Systems used to treat severe and morbid obesity. We generate approximately 36% of our revenues outside the U.S./Canada.
Our primary markets are very competitive and subject to substantial government regulation. Pricing and market share pressures vary by product line and geographic market. In general, inflationary trends result in increases in our labor and material costs. In addition, there are foreign currency fluctuations and other risks associated with operating on a global basis, such as price and currency-exchange controls, import restrictions, and changing economic, social and political conditions in foreign countries. We expect these trends and risks to continue. We will continue to manage these issues by capitalizing on our market presence, developing innovative products, investing in human resources, leveraging our cost structure, and possibly entering into alliances and other arrangements.
We derive all of our revenues from product sales. We sell our breast aesthetics, facial aesthetics and obesity intervention products in the U.S. to hospitals, clinics and doctors through a direct sales force. Internationally, our products are sold either through direct sales forces in countries where we have our own subsidiaries or through third party distributors.
We manufacture our products in California, Costa Rica and Ireland. We also purchase finished products and certain raw material components from third party manufacturers and suppliers. The cost of goods sold represents raw materials, labor and overhead, and the cost of third party finished products. Gross margins may fluctuate from period to period due to changes in the selling prices of our products, the mix of products sold, changes in the cost of third party finished products, raw materials, labor and overhead and manufacturing efficiencies or inefficiencies. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003, the cost of goods sold also includes accelerated depreciation charges related to the manufacturing consolidation. (See Note 4 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.)
Our selling, general and administrative expense incorporates the expenses of our sales and marketing organization and the general and administrative expenses necessary to support the global corporation. Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, and marketing program costs. General and administrative expenses incorporate the costs of finance, human resources, information services, legal and insurance costs.
Our research and development expenses are comprised of the following types of costs incurred in performing clinical development and research and development activities: salaries and benefits, allocated overhead, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing costs, regulatory costs, contract services, and other outside costs. We also conduct research on materials technology, product design and product improvement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had cash and cash equivalents of $77.7 million and short-term investments of $9.9 million at June 30, 2004, an aggregate increase of $7.1 million from $80.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and no short-term investments at December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily the result of cash provided by operations of $27.5 million and cash from the issuance of common stock of $4.6 million, offset primarily by the purchases of plant and equipment of $9.9 million, intangible assets of $10.2 million, and principal repayments of long-term debt of $5.0 million. Cash provided by operating activities has been, and is expected to continue to be, our primary source of funds. We invest a portion of our cash and cash equivalents in short-term investments with maturities of less than one year.
Cash provided by operations was $27.5 million for the six months ending June 30, 2004 compared to $38.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease was primarily the result of a cash payment for our Ethicon Endo-Surgery, Inc. (Ethicon) legal settlement of $17.2 million (see Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings, Patents and
23
License Litigation, Kuzmak Matter for a further discussion of this settlement agreement). Pursuant to the terms of this settlement agreement, we will commence accrual of the royalties in the third quarter of 2004 and payment of such royalties to Ethicon in the fourth quarter of 2004. Royalty amounts will vary based on the sales of these products. Accounts receivable increased $5.1 million due to increased sales. Inventories increased $7.3 million mainly in our facial product inventory in the U.S. Accounts payable increased $3.9 million in line with our increased inventory purchases. Income taxes payable decreased $3.7 million as a result of our lower tax rate in 2003 and utilization of net operating losses and tax credits. Accruals and other long-term liabilities decreased $7.8 million primarily due to payments on our Trilucent liability (see Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings, Breast Implant Litigation, Trilucent Breast Implant Matters). We expect cash from operations to increase for the full year as a result of increased sales and net income.
Cash used in investing activities of $30.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 consists of $9.9 million for the purchase of short-term investments, $10.2 million for the purchase of intangibles, primarily the purchase of license and distribution agreements, and $9.9 million in capital expenditures, primarily for our plant expansions and our global Enterprise Resource Planning or ERP system. Cash used in investing activities of $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 consisted of the purchase of intangibles of $2.0 million and capital expenditures of $4.1 million, primarily for our global ERP system.
Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004 of $0.4 million reflects proceeds of $4.6 million from the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of outstanding employee stock options and issuances pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan, offset by long-term debt principal payments of $5.0 million. Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of $12.2 million reflected proceeds of $12.6 million from the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of outstanding employee stock options and issuances pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan, partially offset by principal payments of $0.4 million on our long-term debt.
As of June 30, 2004, we had long-term debt of $27.5 million including $10.0 million of current liabilities. In addition, we had a $35.0 million five-year revolving credit facility. We had utilized $14.8 million of the revolver capacity by having letters of credit issued to collateralize certain insurance programs. The remaining $20.2 million of revolver capacity was unused as of June 30, 2004. The borrowings under the current credit facilities bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate or LIBOR plus 2.0%. Remaining principal payments of $5.0, $12.5, and $10.0 million are due in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
The primary objectives of our investment policy are, in order of priority, preservation of principal, liquidity, and attaining a high rate of return. Consequently, our investments are generally of short duration and high credit quality. We believe that existing funds, cash generated from operations, and existing debt financing are adequate to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future. Further, we believe that our operating cash flow will be in an amount sufficient to repay the existing term loan. However, we may raise additional capital from time to time.

Net sales (net of returns, discounts, and allowances), or sales, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, were affected by foreign exchange rate fluctuations positively by approximately 2% and 5%, and 3% and 5%, respectively.
Inamed AestheticsBreast. The growth for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 of breast aesthetic sales was driven by several key factors:
The acceptance of all aesthetics procedures has grown, including breast augmentation and reconstruction.
Favorable demographics continue to emerge in the U.S. and internationally for various types of aesthetics procedures including breast augmentation.
Our physician practice building initiatives and consumer awareness programs. These include an advanced educational program for surgeons (Inamed Academy) and the company-sponsored LookingYourBest web site for consumers and surgeons.
In the United States, we have seen a continued acceptance of the Style 68 smooth round saline matrix implants (primarily used for augmentation purposes) and the Style 10 and Style 20 smooth round silicone gel filled implants used in connection with the adjunct clinical study for breast reconstruction.
Internationally, an increased demand for our BioDIMENSIONAL Cohesive Gel Matrix products.
In 2004, we expect sales of breast aesthetics products to grow at a mid to high teen rate when compared to 2003.
Inamed AestheticsFacial. Facial aesthetics sales experienced a decrease during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 over the same periods ended June 30, 2003. This decrease was primarily the result of the introduction of a competitive facial aesthetics product in the new hyaluronic acid class of products, called, Restylane®, into the U.S. market in January of 2004. Our hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler, Hylaform®, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, in April 2004.
Despite our addition of Hylaform to our product line, in 2004, we expect sales of facial aesthetics products to decrease in the mid to high teens compared to 2003 due to the introduction of Restylane® in the U.S.
25
Inamed HealthObesity Intervention. The increase in obesity intervention sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was primarily due to the following:
Increased acceptance of the LAP-BAND System in the U.S., driven by recently published peer-reviewed articles supporting the safety, efficacy and positive results seen with the LAP-BAND System.
An increase in insurance coverage for LAP-BAND System procedures in the U.S.
An increase in the number of trained and proctored surgeons, enhanced focus on practice building on key accounts, and a continued dedication to expanded consumer awareness of the procedure in the U.S.
The newly introduced LAP-BAND® VG System in the U.S. and Europe.
Growing acceptance of the BIB System in Europe.
The obesity epidemic has been widely publicized in the press and is anticipated by experts to be a serious and prevalent health care issue for the foreseeable future.
For 2004, sales of obesity intervention products are expected to increase in excess of 30% compared to sales in 2003. We expect to achieve this growth by training and qualifying more physicians on the procedure, working to achieve broader reimbursement for the product and the procedure and educating consumers about the benefits of the LAP-BAND System versus other medical procedures. We have also recently partnered with Premier Purchasing Group, a network of over 1,500 hospitals, continuing to increase access of our products within healthcare organizations.

The improvement of gross margins for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 over the same periods ended June 30, 2003 reflected a favorable product mix and the benefits of the global manufacturing program, which was completed during the first quarter of 2004. It also reflected the fact that we had $0.0 and $0.4 million of accelerated depreciation relating to our global manufacturing consolidation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, versus $0.9 and $1.9 million for the same periods ended June 30, 2003. The assets related to the manufacturing consolidation were fully depreciated in the first quarter of 2004, therefore we have had no further accelerated depreciation expense related to the manufacturing consolidation. The annual savings from the manufacturing consolidation is estimated to be a reduction in U.S. payroll and support costs of $10.0 million, with a corresponding increase in costs in Ireland of $4.3 million and Costa Rica of $0.4 million, with a net savings of $5.3 million per year. The savings are from the relocation to lower-cost manufacturing locations. The savings will be reflected in cost of goods sold on the income statement. Through the six months ended June 30, 2004 a major contributor in the increase of our gross margin year over year was the savings generated as a result of the manufacturing consolidation. The savings generated were primarily the result of reduced payroll costs. See Note 4 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements. In 2004, we expect cost of goods sold to be 26% to 28% and the gross profit margin to be 72% to 74% of sales.

Selling and marketing expenses increased on an absolute basis and as a percentage of sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 over the same periods in 2003. The increase is primarily the result of investments in key sales and marketing programs to support the expansion of our worldwide Aesthetics franchise. General and administrative expense also increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of sales, primarily due to a $17.2 million charge related to our Ethicon patent settlement and related litigation costs in the second quarter of 2004. (See Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings, Patents and License Litigation, Kuzmak Matter for a further discussion of this settlement agreement.) Excluding this non-recurring charge, selling, general and administrative expenses were $41.8 and $80.8 million, or 41.9% and 42.4% of sales, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. Additionally, we have experienced increased information technology costs in support of our new ERP system. We present our sales, general and administrative numbers excluding the Ethicon settlement because such settlement is a non-recurring charge that is outside our normal business operations. The numbers are presented in a manner that is consistent with how management views our business.
We expect selling and marketing expenses to further increase due to the royalties payable per the settlement agreement with Ethicon. This agreement requires us to pay royalties on future U.S. sales of the LAP-BAND System, initially at 7.5%. Prior to this settlement, we accrued a royalty on U.S. sales at 1.2%. The 7.5% royalty will be reduced to 5.5% if Ethicon is able to obtain approval from the FDA for the marketing of an adjustable gastric band sometime in the future. We will also pay Ethicon 3.5% on future foreign sales of the LAP-BAND. The U.S. and international royalties payable will decrease to 2.0% after June 20, 2011, and all our royalty obligations under the settlement agreement will expire no later than May 12, 2013.

The majority of our research and development expenses in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 related to the clinical development programs for our Hylaform dermal filler; our botulinum toxin Type A product; the silicone gel and cohesive silicone gel breast implant clinical trials; and PMA applications as applicable in the U.S. The increase in R&D expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 over the same periods in 2003 was primarily due to the commencement of Phase III of the botulinum toxin Type A product trials and clinical investigations for Juvéderm®, our non-animal, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers.
27
In 2004, we expect research and development expenses will increase $7.0 to $9.0 million over 2003 and be in the range of $28.0 to $30.0 million. The expected increase is due to continual support of our:
Botulinum toxin Type A product Phase III trials in the U.S.;
Juvéderm® clinical investigation and development in the U.S.;
Silicone and cohesive gel breast implant PMA applications in the U.S.;
Bioenterics® Intragastric Balloon (the BIB® System) feasibility study in the U.S.; and
Pursuit of CosmoDerm® and CosmoPlast® approvals in International markets.
The increase in investment in R&D is essential to advance our strategic and market positions in our three main product lines around the world.
Amortization
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, amortization of intangible assets was $1.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, compared to $1.0 million and $2.0 million for the same periods in 2003. The increase was due to the purchase of new intangibles and the commencement of amortization on certain intangibles in the first and second quarters of 2004. We expect amortization expense to continue to increase due to additional purchases of intangible assets.
Restricted Stock Plan
In 2003 Inamed adopted the 2003 Restricted Stock Plan, which authorizes Inamed to issue shares to any employee, officer, consultant, or non-employee director. In the second quarter of 2004, the stockholders approved an amendment which increased the number of authorized shares by 150,000 shares to 300,000 shares. Restricted Stock Awards may be granted by the Board subject to vesting and any other restrictions (including a period during which vested shares may not be sold) as determined by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement. Restricted stock may not be sold or otherwise transferred or pledged until the restrictions lapse or are terminated.

Interest Income (Expense)
Net interest income (expense) totaled ($0.1) and $0.3 million for the three and six months ending June 30, 2004, respectively, compared to ($5.1) and ($6.9) million for the same periods ending June 30, 2003. The decrease in interest expense of $5.0 and $7.2 million for the current quarter and six month period, compared to the same periods in 2003 is due to decreased debt levels after our refinancing and unscheduled principal payments in 2003 and lower interest rates on our new credit facilities compared to those in 2003. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2003, we realized $3.5 million of unrealized losses on our interest rate swap. We also earned more interest income in the current year, as we held higher balances of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Foreign Currency
Foreign currency gains and losses fluctuate based largely upon the movements in the exchange rate of the dollar to the EU Euro and the Japanese Yen. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, our net sales included approximately $1.9 and $5.7 million and approximately $3.8 and $7.4 million, respectively, of favorable exchange effects, principally due to the strengthening Euro.
Royalty Income and Other
Royalty income, net of other expenses, was $1.3 and $2.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared to $1.1 and $2.1 for the same periods in 2003.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2004 was a benefit of 15.3%, down from an expense of 20.5% for the second quarter of 2003. Our effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were approximately 15.2% and 22.4%, respectively. The lower tax rates in 2004 are mainly due to our Ethicon patent settlement which is fully deductible in the U.S., a high tax rate jurisdiction. (See Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings, Patents and License Litigation, Kuzmak Matter for a further discussion of this settlement agreement.) Excluding the non-recurring Ethicon charge, the effective tax rates would have been approximately 22% and 24% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. The higher rates are related to increased earnings in higher tax jurisdictions and the fact that certain items that reduced our worldwide tax burden in 2003 did not affect our worldwide effective tax rate in 2004. We expect our tax rate to be 24% to 26% for the full year of 2004. We present our effective tax rate excluding the Ethicon settlement because such settlement is a non-recurring charge that is outside our normal business operations which results in a one-time benefit to our effective tax rate.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, adequacy of allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets and goodwill, income taxes, litigation, and warranties. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Our revenue is generated from the sale of its products to doctors, hospitals, clinics and distributors. We sell our products through a direct sales force in the U.S. and through a direct sales force and distributors internationally.
We recognize product revenue, net of sales discounts, returns and allowances, in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition and SFAS No. 48 Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists. Revenue is recognized when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred and all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is considered probable. Appropriate reserves are established for anticipated returns and allowances based on product history. We recognize revenue when title to the goods and risk of loss transfer to customers provided there are no remaining performance obligations required of us or any matters requiring customer acceptance.
We allow for the return of product from doctors, hospitals, and clinics within a specified time frame and record estimated sales returns as a reduction of sales in the same period revenue is recognized. We calculate these sales provisions based upon historical experience with actual returns. Actual returns in any future period are inherently uncertain and thus may differ from the estimates. If actual returns differ significantly from the estimates, an adjustment to revenue in the current or subsequent period would be recorded. Substantially all of the product returns relate to breast implants. We believe our estimates for anticipated returns is a critical accounting estimate because it requires us to estimate returns and, if actual returns vary, it could have a material impact on our reported sales and results of operations. Historically, our estimates of return rates have not fluctuated from the actual returns by more than 1% to 2%.
A portion of our revenue is generated from consigned inventory of breast implants maintained at doctors, hospitals, and clinic locations. The customer is contractually obligated to maintain a specific level of inventory and to notify us upon use. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time we are notified by the customer that the product has been implanted. Notification is usually through the replenishing of the inventory and we periodically review consignment inventories to confirm accuracy of customer reporting. FDA regulations require tracking the sales of all implanted products.
Our sales to distributors are conducted under the same revenue recognition criteria as sales via our direct sales force. Distributors do not have explicit or implicit rights to return product and do not maintain consignment inventory.
29
Inamed, consistent with industry practice, allows for the return of product from doctors, hospitals, and clinics within a specified time frame, as such we record estimated sales returns as a reduction of sales in the same period revenue is recognized. We calculate these sales provisions based upon our historical experience with actual returns. Actual returns in any future period are inherently uncertain and thus may differ from the estimate. If actual returns differ significantly from the estimates, an adjustment to revenue in the period identified would be recorded. We do not allow returns of our facial products.
A portion of our revenue is generated from consigned inventory maintained at customer locations. The customer is contractually obligated to maintain a specific level of inventory and to notify us upon use. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time we are notified by the customer that the product has been implanted. Notification is usually through the replenishing of the inventory. FDA regulations require that we track the sales of all implanted products.
Inventories
As of June 30, 2004, Inamed holds no inventory for product candidates not yet approved by the FDA. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. We capitalize inventory costs associated with certain product candidates prior to FDA approval, based on our judgment of probable worldwide future commercialization. We believe our estimates of inventory values is a critical accounting estimate because we could be required to expense previously capitalized costs related to pre-approval inventory upon a change in such judgment, due to, among other factors, a decision denying approval of the product candidate by the necessary regulatory bodies, which could have a material impact on our results of operations.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of some of our customers to make required payments. The allowances for doubtful accounts are based on the analysis of historical bad debts, customer credit-worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic trends, any deterioration of the accounts receivable aging, and changes in customer payment terms. We believe our estimates for our allowance for doubtful accounts is a critical accounting estimate because if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required, which could have a material impact on our results of operations.
Valuation of Long-lived Assets and Goodwill
We account for long-lived assets, other than goodwill in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long Lived Assets, which superceded SFAS No. 121 and certain sections of APB Opinion No. 30 specific to discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 classifies long-lived assets as either (1) to be held and used, (2) to be disposed of by other than sale, or (3) to be disposed of by sale. This standard introduces a probability-weighted cash flow estimation approach to deal with situations in which alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of a long-lived asset are under consideration or a range is estimated for the amount of possible future cash flows. SFAS No. 144 requires, among other things, that an entity review its long-lived assets and certain related intangibles for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Factors we consider important that could trigger an impairment review include substantial operating losses, significant negative industry trends and significant changes in how we use an asset. Upon the determination that an impairment review is required we would compare the carrying amounts of the long-lived asset to its fair value, which is determined using a discounted cash flow model. This model requires estimates of our future revenues, profits, capital expenditures, working capital and other relevant factors. We estimate these amounts by evaluating our historical trends, current budgets, operating plans, and other industry data. If the assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment charge is the amount by which the assets carrying value exceeds its fair value. As with all cash flow models there is an inherent subjectivity. The assumptions listed above could be different from actual results which would in turn create a different valuation. If these assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for those assets. With the exception of the manufacturing consolidation that occurred in 2002, we do not believe that any such changes have taken place. We will continue to monitor our long lived assets balances and conduct formal tests when impairment indicators are present.
We also adopted SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002. As a result, goodwill is no longer amortized, but is subject to a transitional impairment analysis and is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently as impairment indicators arise. The test for impairment involves the use of
30
estimates related to the fair values of the business operations with which goodwill is associated. In accordance with FAS 142 we evaluate the fair value of the reporting unit in relation to the carrying value of goodwill. As long as the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the reporting units goodwill and no specific circumstances indicate a loss in value for goodwill, no impairment charge will be recognized. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of goodwill, we will measure the amount of the impairment loss and record an impairment charge based on a discounted cash flow model. Other intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which are periods of up to 21 years.
We believe the estimate of our valuation of Long-lived Assets and Goodwill is a critical accounting estimate because if circumstances arose that led to a decrease in the valuation it could have a material impact on our results of operations.

Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the statutory marginal income tax rate in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the deferred income tax assets or liabilities from period to period. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. We consider our ability to carryback losses, forecasted earnings and future taxable income and feasible tax planning strategies in determining the need for and amount of a valuation allowance. We believe the estimate of our income tax assets, liabilities and expense are critical accounting estimates because if the actual income tax assets, liabilities and expenses differ from our estimates the outcome could have a material impact on our results of operations.
Litigation
We are involved in various litigation matters as a claimant and as a defendant. We record any amounts recovered in these matters when collection occurs. We record liabilities for claims against us when the losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Amounts recorded are based on reviews by outside counsel, in-house counsel, and management.
Product Warranties
We have an accrual for warranty programs for our breast implant sales in the United States, Europe, and certain other countries. We estimate the amount of potential future claims from these warranty programs based on actuarial analyses. Expected future obligations are determined based on the history of product shipments and claims and are discounted to a current value. The liability is included in both the current and long-term liabilities in the balance sheet. Substantially all of the product warranty liability arises from the U.S. warranty program. The U.S. plan in most cases provides product replacement and one thousand two hundred to two thousand four hundred dollars of financial assistance for surgical procedures within ten years of implantation. The warranty program in non-U.S. markets have similar terms and conditions to the U.S. plan. We do not currently offer a warranty on our facial or health products and therefore no amount is included in the liability for those products. We do not warrant any level of aesthetic result and, as required by government regulation, make extensive disclosures concerning the risks of our products and implantation surgery. We believe that our estimate for product warranties is a critical accounting estimate because it requires us to estimate failure rates, claim amounts, and discount rates. Changes to actual claims and interest rates could have a material impact on the actuarial analysis which could materially impact our reported expenses and results of operations.
Recent Pronouncements
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51, which was originally effective on July 1, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB deferred the effective date for applying the provisions of FIN 46 to March 31, 2004 for interests held by public companies in variable interest entities or potential variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results from operations.
31
On March 31, 2004, the FASB issued an exposure draft, Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of SFAS No. 123 and 95. The exposure draft proposes to expense the fair value of share-based payments to employees beginning in 2005. We are currently evaluating the impact of this proposed standard on our financial statements.
Risks and Uncertainties
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other written and oral statements made from time to time by us, do not relate strictly to historical facts. These statements are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Words such as anticipate, believe, could, estimate, expect, forecast, intend, may, plan, possible, project, and should, or similar words or expressions, are intended to identify forward looking statements. This forward looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could materially alter results in the future from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. We caution you that such forward-looking statements are only predictions and that actual events or results may differ materially. In evaluating such statements, you should specifically consider the various factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially, including those factors described below. It is not possible to foresee or identify all factors affecting our forward-looking statements and you should not consider any list of such factors to be exhaustive. We are under no duty to update any forward-looking statements.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO AVOID SIGNIFICANT PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS, PRODUCT RECALLS OR INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS, WE MAY BE FORCED TO PAY SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE AWARDS, CLAIMS, AND OTHER EXPENSES THAT COULD EXCEED OUR ACCRUALS AND INSURANCE COVERAGE.
We have in the past been, currently are, and may in the future be subject to product liability claims alleging that the use of our technology or products has resulted in adverse health effects. These claims may be brought even with respect to products that have received, or in the future may receive, regulatory approval for commercial sale. In particular, the manufacture and sale of breast implant products entails significant risk of product liability claims due to potential allegations of possible disease causation, transmission and other health factors, rupture or other product failure. Other breast implant manufacturers that suffered such claims in the past have been forced to cease operations or even to declare bankruptcy. We also face a substantial risk of product liability claims from our obesity intervention products and our facial aesthetics products. In addition to product liability claims, we may in the future need to recall or issue field corrections related to our products due to manufacturing deficiencies, labeling errors, or other safety or regulatory reasons. We have, from time to time, entered into indemnification agreements with health care practitioners with respect to certain clinical research studies. Pursuant to these agreements, we have agreed to indemnify the health care practitioners from third-party claims (in addition to product liability claims) resulting from or arising out of these studies.
At present, we have no third-party liability insurance to protect us from the costs of claims for damages due to the use or recall of our products or indemnification claims. Product liability claims, recall orders, or indemnification claims could result in material losses.
Also at present, we are actively engaged in efforts to seek product-liability insurance coverage. However, to date, the Company and its brokers have not identified any carriers that are willing to sell us risk-shifting liability insurance on terms and conditions which are acceptable to the Company. While we continue to explore the feasibility of purchasing risk-shifting product liability insurance coverage from a third- party carrier or carriers, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in these efforts.
In addition, we continue to incur substantial costs and expenses as a result of liabilities related to the Trilucent breast implant product. Our Trilucent costs and expenses derive in part from the program announced by us on June 6, 2000, and include, among other things, continuing expenses of our explantation program, regulatory compliance, scientific and other investigative studies, bodily injury and financial loss claims, and related legal and defense costs. While we have insurance for some of these expenses and have also established accruals for them in addition to our insurance program, it is possible that the combined amount of our insurance and accruals may be insufficient to cover all our future Trilucent-related liabilities. In 2002, we came to final settlements with each of our two insurers for product liability claims arising from the Trilucent implant. Under one settlement, with MEDMARC Casualty Insurance Company, MEDMARC paid $6.0 million in cash to us in January 2003, $1.5 million cash to us in May 2003, and, effective November 16, 2002, agreed to make a policy with a limit of $10.0 million available to us for defense and indemnification of Trilucent-related bodily injury claims worldwide. The policy does not cover claims filed against us after November 7, 2005. This policy was fully used as of June 30, 2004. There was
32
approximately $3.3 million remaining on the policy commitment at December 31, 2003. Under the second settlement, AISLIC, an AIG company, agreed to make an excess policy with a limit of $10.0 million available to us for the indemnification of non-U.S. Trilucent claims. There was $5.2 million remaining under this commitment at June 30, 2004 and approximately $6.2 million remaining at December 31, 2003.
In addition, at June 30, 2004, we had an accrual for future Trilucent claims, costs, and expenses of approximately $14.4 million, or $9.2 million net of insurance receivable. While we currently believe this amount is adequate, it is possible that our future Trilucent-related liabilities could exceed this amount. This could occur, for example, if additional scientific research discloses one or more Trilucent-related health risks which are not sufficiently understood today, resulting in new legal claims and regulatory obligations. Further, the existing insurance coverage is subject to a number of conditions, notably, it does not apply to any claims which may be filed against us after November 7, 2005. Thus, our accruals and liability insurance coverage under the foregoing insurance policies may be inadequate to cover our future Trilucent-related liabilities, including our Trilucent-related bodily injury claims and other contingent liabilities.
Under the program announced on June 6, 2000, we have, through our AEI Inc. subsidiary, undertaken a comprehensive program of support and assistance for women who received Trilucent breast implants, under which we are covering medical expenses associated with the removal and replacement of those implants for the approximately 8,500 women who received them. To date, we believe that more than 90% of the United Kingdom residents and more than two-thirds of the women in the rest of the world, who had these implants have had them removed. The product was not sold commercially in the United States. To date, an insurance company has honored its commitment under an insurance policy to reimburse us for most of the medical expenses incurred in connection with this explantation program and is obligated under the same policy to cover 75% of these expenses in the future. We are currently engaged in efforts to explant the remainder of the Trilucent patients prior to the expiration of this policy in February 2005. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to complete this program prior to February 2005 and hence it is possible that we will incur material liabilities for Trilucent-related explantation expenses after that date, for which we would not have insurance coverage.
Recipients of the Trilucent implants have also asserted claims and brought legal proceedings against the Company, AEI (an affiliate of the Company), other affiliated and unaffiliated entities, and persons alleging bodily injury and financial loss as a result of the implantation and explantation of their Trilucent implants. To date, we have been able to resolve these claims within our accruals and with insurance proceeds. In the United Kingdom and Spain, we have entered into protocols under which women who have had their Trilucent implants removed since June 6, 2000 may apply for certain fixed levels of compensation, or may obtain an independent, binding determination of their damages, without proof of defect or legal causation. In the United Kingdom, while we have been successful in settling the vast majority of claims, numerous women have applied for a binding determination of their damages and we also face a group action on behalf of approximately 250 women who were explanted prior to June 6, 2000. See Part II, Item 1 Legal Proceedings. In Spain, although approximately 310 women have accepted our protocol, approximately 50 have commenced individual legal proceedings and a Spanish consumer union has commenced a single action in which it alleges that it represents approximately 40 Spanish Trilucent explantees. More than 790 Spanish women were explanted and hence more than 300 have yet to make claims for bodily injury or financial loss (although we have already paid for their explants). The claims of many of these women may now be time-barred under Spanish law. We are also facing Trilucent related claims and legal proceedings in Germany, Belgium, Italy and other countries. In Germany, where as many as 1,500 to 2,000 women are believed to have been implanted with Trilucent, approximately 950 have been explanted, but only approximately 140 have made claims for bodily injury or financial loss (although we have already paid for their explants). By reason of adverse publicity concerning Trilucent in 2003 and the announced closure as of December 31, 2003 of our explantantion program, the rate of filing of new Trilucent related bodily injury claims by women in Germany, Belgium, Italy and other European countries may increase in 2004 or in the following years.
In addition, under U.K. and Spanish law, the release granted to us under our settlement protocol is necessarily provisional, and each participating claimant reserves the right to pursue a future claim should she develop cancer or reproductive abnormalities. Under agreements with the United Kingdom Medical Devices Agency (MDA), we are also continuing to fund Trilucent-related scientific research. The scientific research now being conducted at MDAs request by the Trilucent Scientific Advisory Panel (the TSAP), or future research performed by this or another panel, could reveal that the risk to human health of the Trilucent implant is greater than was previously believed. As a result of that research, the TSAP could recommend that the remaining unexplanted
33
Trilucent recipients have their implants removed, an announcement that would affect a maximum of approximately 1,000 women. On August 4, 2004, the TSAP delivered a report to the successor entity to the MDA in the United Kingdom, known as the MHRA. In its report, issued after more than three (3) years of research, the TSAP concluded that there is no scientific evidence that Trilucent implants are injurious to human health but that the removal of the implants on precautionary grounds was and is appropriate. We could also be obligated to fund scientific or epidemiologic research, or incur expenses for medical monitoring, that are in excess of the levels which are currently forecast. As a result of these and other factors, the total amount of accruals and insurance available to address our future Trilucent-related liabilities may be insufficient and we may need to make additional provisions for Trilucent related liabilities in the future.
IF WE SUFFER NEGATIVE PUBLICITY CONCERNING THE SAFETY OF OUR PRODUCTS, OUR SALES MAY BE HARMED AND WE MAY BE FORCED TO WITHDRAW PRODUCTS.
Physicians and potential and existing patients may have a number of concerns about the safety of our products, including our breast implants, obesity intervention products and facial dermal fillers, whether such concerns have a basis in generally accepted science or peer-reviewed scientific research or not. Negative publicitywhether accurate or inaccurateabout our products, based on, for example, news about breast implant litigation or regulatory activities, new government regulation, or bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) or Creutzfeldt-Jacob, or mad cow disease, could materially reduce market acceptance of our products and could result in product withdrawals. In addition, significant negative publicity could result in an increased number of product liability claims, whether or not these claims have a basis in scientific fact.
OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL FLUCTUATIONS AND ANY FAILURE TO MEET FINANCIAL EXPECTATIONS FOR ANY FISCAL QUARTER MAY DISAPPOINT SECURITIES ANALYSTS AND INVESTORS AND COULD CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.
Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated in the past and may vary significantly in the future due to a combination of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:
changes in demand for our products;
our ability to meet the demand for our products;
on-going and increased competition;
the number, timing, pricing and significance of new products and product introductions and enhancements by us and our competitors;
our ability to develop, introduce and market new and enhanced versions of our products on a timely basis;
changes in pricing policies by us and our competitors;
the timing of significant orders and shipments;
regulatory approvals or other regulatory action affecting new or existing products;
litigation with respect to product liability, intellectual property, and other claims or product recalls and any insurance covering such claims or recalls; and
general economic factors, such as foreign exchange rates.
As a result, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and you should not rely upon these comparisons as indications of future performance. These factors may cause our operating results to be below securities analysts expectations in some future quarters, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

IF CHANGES IN THE ECONOMY AND CONSUMER SPENDING REDUCE CONSUMER DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS, OUR SALES AND PROFITABILITY WILL SUFFER.
Breast augmentation and reconstruction, facial dermal fillers, and obesity intervention are elective procedures. Other than U.S. federally mandated insurance reimbursement for post-mastectomy reconstructive surgery, breast augmentations and other cosmetic procedures are not typically covered by insurance. Adverse changes in the economy may cause consumers to reassess their spending choices and reduce the demand for cosmetic surgery. This shift could have an adverse effect on our sales and profitability.
Reimbursement for obesity surgery, including use of our products, is available to various degrees in most of our international markets. In the United States, reimbursements by insurance plans are increasing, but reimbursement is not widely available to all insured patients at this time. Adverse changes in the economy could have an adverse effect on consumer spending and governmental health care resources. This shift could have an adverse effect on the sales and profitability of our obesity intervention business.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND MARKET NEW PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES, WE MAY EXPERIENCE A DECREASE IN DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS OR OUR PRODUCTS COULD BECOME OBSOLETE.
The health care industry is highly competitive and is subject to significant and rapid technological change. We believe that our ability to respond quickly to consumer needs or advances in medical technologies, without compromising product quality, is crucial to our success. We are continually engaged in product development and improvement programs to maintain and improve our competitive position. We cannot, however, guarantee that we will be successful in enhancing existing products or developing new products or technologies that will timely achieve regulatory approval or receive market acceptance.
There is also a risk that our products may not gain market acceptance among physicians, patients and the medical community generally. The degree of market acceptance of any medical device or other product that we develop will depend on a number of factors, including demonstrated clinical efficacy and safety, cost-effectiveness, potential advantages over alternative products, and our marketing and distribution capabilities. Physicians will not recommend our products until clinical data or other factors demonstrate their safety and efficacy compared to other competing products. Even if the clinical safety and efficacy of using our products is established, physicians may elect not to recommend using them for any number of other reasons, including whether our products best meet the particular needs of the individual patient.
Our products compete with a number of other products manufactured by major health care companies, and may also compete with new products currently under development by others. If our new products do not achieve significant market acceptance, or if our current products are not able to continue competing successfully in the changing market, our revenue and earnings may not grow as much as expected or may even decline.
IF CLINICAL TRIALS FOR OUR PRODUCTS ARE UNSUCCESSFUL OR DELAYED, WE WILL BE UNABLE TO MEET OUR ANTICIPATED DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION TIMELINES, WHICH COULD CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.
Before obtaining regulatory approvals for the commercial sale of any products, we must demonstrate through pre-clinical testing and clinical trials that our products are safe and effective for use in humans. Conducting clinical trials is a lengthy, time-consuming and expensive process.
Completion of clinical trials may take several years or more. Our commencement and rate of completion of clinical trials may be delayed by many factors, including:
lack of efficacy during the clinical trials;
unforeseen safety issues;
slower than expected patient recruitment; and
35
government or regulatory delays.
The results from pre-clinical testing and early clinical trials are often not predictive of results obtained in later clinical trials. A number of new products have shown promising results in clinical trials, but subsequently failed to establish sufficient safety and efficacy data to obtain necessary regulatory approvals. Data obtained from pre-clinical and clinical activities are susceptible to varying interpretations, which may delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval. In addition, regulatory delays or rejections may be encountered as a result of many factors, including perceived defects in the design of the clinical trials and changes in regulatory policy during the period of product development. Any delays in, or termination of, our clinical trials will materially and adversely affect our development and commercialization timelines, which would cause our stock price to decline.
IF OUR COLLABORATIVE PARTNERS DO NOT PERFORM, WE WILL BE UNABLE TO DEVELOP PRODUCTS AS ANTICIPATED.
We have entered into collaborative arrangements with third parties to develop certain products. We cannot assure you that these collaborations will produce successful products. If we fail to maintain our existing collaborative arrangements or fail to enter into additional collaborative arrangements, the number of products from which we could receive future revenues would decline.
Our dependence on collaborative arrangements with third parties subjects us to a number of risks. These collaborative arrangements may not be on terms favorable to us. Agreements with collaborative partners typically allow partners significant discretion in electing whether or not to pursue any of the planned activities. We cannot control the amount and timing of resources our collaborative partners may devote to products based on the collaboration, and our partners may choose to pursue alternative products. Our partners may not perform their obligations as expected. Business combinations, significant changes in a collaborative partners business strategy, or its access to financial resources may adversely affect a partners willingness or ability to complete its obligations under the arrangement. Moreover, we could become involved in disputes with our partners, which could lead to delays or termination of the collaborations and time-consuming and expensive litigation or arbitration. Even if we fulfill our obligations under a collaborative agreement, our partner can terminate the agreement under certain circumstances. If any collaborative partner were to terminate or breach our agreement with it, or otherwise fail to complete its obligations in a timely manner, our chances of successfully commercializing products would be materially and adversely affected.
OUR FAILURE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN KEY MANAGERIAL, TECHNICAL, SELLING AND MARKETING PERSONNEL COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS
Our success depends upon our retention of key managerial, technical, selling and marketing personnel. The loss of the services of key personnel might significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our development and strategic objectives. We do not maintain key person life insurance on any of our employees, and none of our employees is under any obligation to continue providing services to Inamed.
We must continue to attract, train and retain managerial, technical, selling and marketing personnel. Competition for such highly skilled employees in our industry is high, and we cannot be certain that we will be successful in recruiting or retaining such personnel. We also believe that our success depends to a significant extent on the ability of our key personnel to operate effectively, both individually and as a group. If we are unable to identify, hire and integrate new employees in a timely and cost-effective manner, our operating results may suffer.
IF OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS DO NOT ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR PRODUCTS OR TECHNOLOGIES, OTHERS COULD COMPETE AGAINST US MORE DIRECTLY, WHICH WOULD HURT OUR PROFITABILITY.
Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain patents or rights to patents, protect trade secrets, operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others, and prevent others from infringing on our patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights. We will be able to protect our intellectual property from unauthorized use by third parties only to the extent that it is covered by valid and enforceable patents, trademarks and licenses. Patent protection generally involves complex legal and factual questions and, therefore, enforceability of patent rights cannot be predicted with certainty. Patents, if issued, may be challenged, invalidated or
36
circumvented. Thus, any patents that we own or license from others may not provide adequate protection against competitors. In addition, our pending and future patent applications may fail to result in patents being issued. Also, those patents that are issued may not provide us with adequate proprietary protection or competitive advantages against competitors with similar technologies. Moreover, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States.
In addition to patents and trademarks, we rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how. We seek protection of these rights, in part, through confidentiality and proprietary information agreements. These agreements may not provide meaningful protection or adequate remedies for violation of our rights in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential and proprietary information. Failure to protect our proprietary rights could seriously impair our competitive position.
IF THIRD PARTIES CLAIM WE ARE INFRINGING THEIR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, WE COULD SUFFER SIGNIFICANT LITIGATION OR LICENSING EXPENSES OR BE PREVENTED FROM MARKETING OUR PRODUCTS.
Our commercial success depends significantly on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and other proprietary rights of others. However, regardless of our intent, our technologies may infringe the patents or violate other proprietary rights of third parties. In the event of such infringement or violation, we may face litigation, become subject to damages, and may be prevented from selling existing products and pursuing product development or commercialization. At present, we are a party in one such matter. See Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings, Patents and License Litigation, Manders Matter.
WE DEPEND ON A SOLE OR LIMITED NUMBER OF SUPPLIERS FOR CERTAIN PRODUCTS AND RAW MATERIALS AND THE LOSS OF ANY SUPPLIER COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO MANUFACTURE AND/OR SELL MANY OF OUR PRODUCTS.
We currently rely on a single supplier for silicone raw materials used in many of our products. Although we have an agreement with this supplier to transfer the necessary formulations to us in the event that it cannot meet our requirements, we cannot guarantee that we would be able to produce a sufficient amount of quality silicone raw materials in a timely manner. We also depend on third party manufacturers for silicone molded components, Hylaform and Juvederm/Hydrafill product lines, and silicone facial implants. In addition, we currently rely on Smith and Nephew and Immucor Corporation for the supply of human collagen mesh.
If there is any disruption in the supply of these finished goods or materials, our sales and profitability for the affected products would be adversely affected.
OUR ABILITY TO SELL BOVINE COLLAGEN-BASED PRODUCTS COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF WE EXPERIENCE PROBLEMS WITH THE CLOSED HERD OF DOMESTIC CATTLE FROM WHICH WE DERIVE THESE PRODUCTS.
We rely on two closed herds of domestic cattle that are kept apart from all other cattle for the production of our bovine collagen-based products. If these herds suffered a significant reduction or became unavailable to us, we would have a limited ability to access a supply of acceptable bovine collagen from a similarly segregated source. A significant reduction in the supply of bovine collagen could have a material adverse effect on our ability to sell bovine collagen-based products.
OUR INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS EXPOSES US TO A NUMBER OF RISKS.
More than one-third of our sales are derived from international operations. Accordingly, any material decrease in foreign sales would have a material adverse effect on our overall sales and profitability. Most of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars, euros, or yen. Depreciation or devaluation of the local currencies of countries where we sell our products may result in our products becoming more expensive in local currency terms, thus reducing demand. In addition, we manufacture some of our breast implant products in Ireland and in Costa Rica. An increased percentage of our operating expenses will be denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar due to the elimination of Santa Barbara manufacturing. We cannot guarantee that we will not experience unfavorable currency fluctuation effects in future periods, which could have an adverse effect on our operating
37
results. Our operations and financial results also may be significantly affected by other international factors, including:
foreign government regulation of medical devices;
product liability, intellectual property and other claims;
new export license requirements;
political or economic instability in our target markets;
trade restrictions;
changes in tax laws and tariffs;
inadequate protection of intellectual property rights in some countries;
managing foreign distributors, manufacturers and staffing;
managing foreign branch offices; and
competition.
If these risks actually materialize, our sales to international customers, as well as those U.S. customers that use products manufactured abroad, may decrease.
WE ARE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL GOVERNMENT REGULATION, WHICH COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.
The production and marketing of our products and our ongoing research and development, pre-clinical testing and clinical trial activities are subject to extensive regulation and review by numerous governmental authorities both in the U.S. and abroad. Most of the medical devices we develop must undergo rigorous pre-clinical and clinical testing and an extensive regulatory approval process before they can be marketed. This process makes it longer, harder and more costly to bring our products to market, and we cannot guarantee that any of our products will be approved, or, once approved, not recalled. The pre-marketing approval process can be particularly expensive, uncertain and lengthy, and a number of devices for which FDA approval has been sought by other companies have never been approved for marketing. In addition to testing and approval procedures, extensive regulations also govern marketing, manufacturing, distribution, labeling, and record-keeping procedures. If we do not comply with applicable regulatory requirements, such violations could result in warning letters, non-approval, suspensions of regulatory approvals, civil penalties and criminal fines, product seizures and recalls, operating restrictions, injunctions, and criminal prosecution.
Delays in or rejection of FDA or other government entity approval of our new products may also adversely affect our business. Such delays or rejection may be encountered due to, among other reasons, government or regulatory delays, lack of efficacy during clinical trials, unforeseen safety issues, slower than expected rate of patient recruitment for clinical trials, inability to follow patients after treatment in clinical trials, inconsistencies between early clinical trial results and results obtained in later clinical trials, varying interpretations of data generated by clinical trials, or changes in regulatory policy during the period of product development in the U.S. and abroad. In the U.S., there has been a continuing trend of more stringent FDA oversight in product clearance and enforcement activities, causing medical device manufacturers to experience longer approval cycles, more uncertainty, greater risk, and higher expenses. Internationally, there is a risk that we may not be successful in meeting the quality standards or other certification requirements. Even if regulatory approval of a product is granted, this approval may entail limitations on uses for which the product may be labeled and promoted. It is possible, for example, that we may not receive FDA approval to market our current products for broader or different applications or to market updated products that represent extensions of our basic technology. In addition, we may not receive FDA export approval to export our products in the future, and countries to which products are to be exported may not approve them for import.
38
Our manufacturing facilities also are subject to continual governmental review and inspection. The FDA has stated publicly that compliance with manufacturing regulations will be scrutinized more strictly. A governmental authority may challenge our compliance with applicable federal, state and foreign regulations. In addition, any discovery of previously unknown problems with one of our products or facilities may result in restrictions on the product or the facility, including withdrawal of the product from the market or other enforcement actions.
From time to time, legislative or regulatory proposals are introduced that could alter the review and approval process relating to medical devices. It is possible that the FDA or other governmental authorities will issue additional regulations further restricting the sale of our present or proposed products. Any change in legislation or regulations that govern the review and approval process relating to our current and future products could make it more difficult and costly to obtain approval for new products, or to produce, market, and distribute existing products.
HEALTHCARE REFORM LEGISLATION COULD MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.
If any national healthcare reform or other legislation or regulations are passed that imposes limits on the number or type of medical procedures that may be performed or that has the effect of restricting a physicians ability to select specific products for use in patient procedures, such changes could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products. In the U.S., there have been, and we expect that there will continue to be, a number of federal and state legislative and regulatory proposals to implement greater governmental control over the healthcare industry. These proposals create uncertainty as to the future of our industry and may have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise capital or to form collaborations. In a number of foreign markets, the pricing and profitability of healthcare products are subject to governmental influence or control. In addition, legislation or regulations that impose restrictions on the price that may be charged for healthcare products or medical devices may adversely affect our sales and profitability.
IF OUR USE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RESULTS IN CONTAMINATION OR INJURY, WE COULD SUFFER SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL LOSS.
Our manufacturing and research activities involve the controlled use of hazardous materials. We cannot eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials. In the event of an accident or environmental discharge, we may be held liable for any resulting damages, which may exceed our financial resources.
OUR STOCK PRICE HAS BEEN VOLATILE AND OUR TRADING VOLUME HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN LOWER THAN THAT OF MANY NASDAQ LISTED STOCKS.
The trading price of our common stock has been, and may be, subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:
quarter-to-quarter variations in our operating results;
the results of testing, technological innovations, or new commercial products by us or our competitors;
governmental actions, regulations, rules, and orders;
general conditions in the healthcare, medical device, or plastic surgery industries;
changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts;
developments and litigation concerning patents or other intellectual property rights;
litigation or public concern about the safety of our products; and
resignation of senior officers.
39
Historically, the daily trading volume of our common stock has been relatively low compared to that of many other NASDAQ listed stocks. We cannot guarantee that an active public market for our common stock will be sustained or that the average trading volume will remain at present levels or increase. In addition, the stock market in general and the NASDAQ National Market in particular experience significant price and volume fluctuations. Volatility in the market price for particular companies has often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market factors may seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In addition, securities class action litigation has often been initiated following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities. A securities class action suit against us could result in substantial costs, potential liabilities, and the diversion of managements attention and resources.
FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY DEPRESS OUR STOCK PRICE.
The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of our common stock in private placements or in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur. In addition, these factors could make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future offerings of common stock. As of August 4, 2004, there were 35,584,017 shares of our common stock outstanding, with another 2.0 million shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options granted under our stock option plans or under certain agreements with our senior officers. All of the stock underlying these options has been registered for resale with the Securities Exchange Commission.
LITIGATION MAY HARM OUR BUSINESS OR OTHERWISE DISTRACT OUR MANAGEMENT.
Substantial, complex or extended litigation could cause us to incur large expenditures and distract our management. For example, lawsuits by employees, stockholders or customers could be very costly and substantially disrupt our business. Disputes from time to time with such companies or individuals are not uncommon, and we cannot assure you that that we will always be able to resolve such disputes out of court or on terms favorable to us.
OUR PUBLICLY-FILED SEC REPORTS ARE REVIEWED BY THE SEC FROM TIME TO TIME AND ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES REQUIRED AS A RESULT OF ANY SUCH REVIEW MAY RESULT IN MATERIAL LIABILITY TO US AND HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
The reports of publicly-traded companies are subject to review by the SEC from time to time for the purpose of assisting companies in complying with applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall effectiveness of companies public filings, and comprehensive reviews of such reports are now required at least every three years under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. SEC reviews may be initiated at any time. While we believe that our previously filed SEC reports comply, and we intend that all future reports will comply in all material respects with the published rules and regulations of the SEC, we could be required to modify or reformulate information contained in prior filings as a result of an SEC review. Any modification or reformulation of information contained in such reports could be significant and result in material liability to us and have a material adverse impact on the trading price of our common stock.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of business, Inameds operations are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currencies. These fluctuations can vary its cost of financing and operations.
Interest Rate Exposure- Based on our overall interest rate exposure at June 30, 2004, which was primarily variable rate debt, a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates applied to our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2004, would have no material impact on earnings, cash flows, or fair values of interest rate risk sensitive instruments over a one-year period. At June 30, 2004 Inamed does not have an interest rate swap.
Foreign Currency Exposure- Inameds foreign currency risk exposure results from fluctuating currency exchange rates, primarily the movement of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Yen. Inameds transactional currency exposures arise when Inamed or one of its subsidiaries enter into transactions denominated in currencies other than their local currency. Inamed also faces currency exposure arising from the translation of the financial results of Inameds global operations into U.S. dollars at exchange rates that have fluctuated during the reporting period.
There were no foreign exchange forward or option contracts at June 30, 2004 or 2003. Based on Inameds overall exposure for foreign currency at June 30, 2004, a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency rates would not have a material impact on its balance sheet, sales, net income, or cash flows over a one-year period.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

BREAST IMPLANT LITIGATION
Trilucent Breast Implant Matters
When the Company purchased Collagen in September 1999, Inamed assumed certain liabilities relating to the Trilucent breast implant, a soybean oil-filled breast implant, which had been manufactured and distributed by various subsidiaries of Collagen between 1995 and November 1998. In November 1998, Collagen announced the sale of its LipoMatrix, Inc. subsidiary, manufacturer of the Trilucent implant, to Sierra Medical Technologies, Inc. Collagen retained certain liabilities for Trilucent implants sold prior to November 1998.
In March 1999, the United Kingdom Medical Devices Agency, or MDA, announced the voluntary suspension of marketing and withdrawal of the Trilucent implant in the U.K. The MDA stated that its actions were taken as a precautionary measure and did not identify any immediate hazard associated with the use of the product. The MDA further stated that it sought the withdrawal because it had received reports of local complications in a small number of women who had received those implants, involving localized swelling. The same notice stated that there has been no evidence of permanent injury or harm to general health as a result of these implants. In March 1999, Collagen agreed with the U.K. National Health Service that, for a period of time, it would perform certain product surveillance with respect to U.K. patients implanted with the Trilucent implant and pay for explants for any U.K. women with confirmed Trilucent implant ruptures. Subsequently, LipoMatrixs notified body in Europe suspended the products CE Mark pending further assessment of the long-term safety of the product. Sierra Medical has since stopped sales of the product. Subsequent to acquiring Collagen, Inamed elected to continue the voluntary program.
Inamed estimates that approximately 8,000-9,000 women received Trilucent implants until commercial sales ceased in March 1999, and approximately half of them reside in the U.K. In the U.S., 165 women received Trilucent breast implants in two clinical studies; enrollment in both studies ended by June 1997.
On June 6, 2000, the MDA issued a hazard notice recommending that surgeons and their patients consider explanting the Trilucent implants even if the patient is asymptomatic. The MDA also recommended that women avoid pregnancy and breast-feeding until the explantation. The hazard notice stressed, however, that all of the above advice is precautionary. Although there have been reports of breast swelling and discomfort in some women with these implants, there has been no clinical evidence of any serious health problems, so far.
Concurrently with the MDA announcement of June 6, 2000, Inamed announced that, through its AEI, Inc. subsidiary, it had undertaken a comprehensive program of support and assistance for women who have received Trilucent breast implants, under which it is covering medical expenses associated with the removal and replacement of those implants for women in the European Community, the U.S. and other countries. After consulting with competent authorities in each affected country, the Company terminated this support program effective as of December 31, 2003 in all countries other than Germany. Notwithstanding the termination of the general program, Inamed may continue to pay for explanations and related expenses if a patient can justify her delay in having her Trilucent implants removed on medical grounds or owing to lack of notice. Under this program, the Company may pay a fee to any surgeon who conducts an initial consultation with any Trilucent implantee. The Company also pays for the explantation procedure and related costs, and for replacement (non-Trilucent) implants for women who are candidates for and who desire them. To date, more than 90% of the U.K. residents and more than two-thirds of the non-U.K. residents who have requested explantations as a result of an initial consultation have had them performed. To date, an insurance company has reimbursed Inamed for approximately 70% of these expenses. Going forward, the insurance company is obligated to reimburse Inamed for not less than 75% of these expenses, up to an aggregate of $50.0 million in coverage through February 15, 2005.
In 2000-2001, Inamed was sued in various litigations in the United States alleging bodily injury caused by Trilucent breast implants. All of these cases have now been dismissed or settled and we do not face any Trilucent
41
related claims or litigation in the United States at this time. One claim was settled without litigation for a small sum in the first quarter of 2003 and was covered by the Companys insurance settlement.
Also during and since the third quarter of 2000, Inamed and its subsidiaries have received notices of claim from European women, the vast majority of them residents of the U.K. or Spain, seeking compensation for general and special damages for alleged bodily injuries from Trilucent implants. In November, 2000, with the consent and approval of its insurers, AEI, Inc., on behalf of itself, its affiliates and insurers, entered into a settlement protocol with the lead solicitor for the U.K. claimants. The protocol affords a fixed level of compensation to qualified claimants who, in an uncomplicated surgical procedure, have had their Trilucent breast implants explanted in reliance on the June 2000 MDA hazard notice. The protocol also affords a mechanism for the efficient resolution of any claims alleging that the early explantation of Trilucent implants involved serious surgical complications or resulted in a medical condition, which required either extended hospitalization or extended home care. To date, more than 90% of the U.K. women who have had their Trilucent implants explanted since June 2000, represented by more than 90 different solicitors, have sought compensation through the settlement protocol. To date, no such woman has brought civil proceedings.
In addition, in Spain, Inamed has offered a protocol similar in structure to the United Kingdom protocol. To date, we have received approximately 310 claims under the Spanish protocol. In addition, a Spanish consumer union has commenced a single action in which the consumer union alleges that it represents approximately 40 Spanish Trilucent explantees. Finally, approximately 50 women have commenced individual legal proceedings. To date, 9 of these proceedings have proceeded to judgment. We have won 4, and lost 5, of these cases. Damages in the cases we lost have averaged $18,000 per case. We have taken appeals in 3 of the cases.
In 2002, Inamed came to final settlements with each of its two insurers for product liability claims arising from the Trilucent implant. Under one settlement, with MEDMARC Casualty Insurance Company, MEDMARC paid $6.0 million in cash to Inamed in January 2003, and $1.5 million in cash in May 2003, and, effective November 16, 2002, agreed to make a policy with a limit of $10.0 million available to the Company for defense and indemnification of Trilucent-related bodily injury claims worldwide. The policy does not cover claims filed against us after November 7, 2005. At June 30, 2004 we had no remaining coverage under this policy. Under the second settlement, AISLIC, an AIG company, agreed to make an excess policy with a limit of $10.0 million available to the Company for the indemnification of non-U.S. Trilucent claims. There was approximately $5.2 million remaining under this commitment at June 30, 2004. As a result of these settlements, we released both carriers from any other actual or potential financial claims under the policies and dismissed all carrier related litigation with prejudice.
By agreement with the MDA, Inamed is currently funding additional scientific research and patient monitoring relating to Trilucent. On August 4, 2004, the Trilucent Scientific Advisory Panel delivered a report to the successor entity to the MDA in the United Kingdom, known as the MRHA. In its report, issued after more than three (3) years of research, the TSAP concluded that there is no scientific evidence that Trilucent implants are injurious to human health but that the removal of the implants on precautionary grounds was and is appropriate.
In addition, at June 30, 2004, Inamed had an accrual for future Trilucent claims, costs, and expenses of approximately $9.2 million, net of insurance.
Based upon the information and analyses currently available to the Company, the Company believes that its current accruals and available insurance coverage are sufficient to discharge future Trilucent related liabilities; however, there can be no assurances that the future Trilucent liabilities will not exceed the current accruals and insurance coverage.
Resolution of 3M Contractual Indemnity Claim
In connection with the February, 1999 settlement of its breast implant class action litigation (see Breast Implant Class Action Settlement, below), 3M asserted against Inamed a contractual indemnity provision, which was part of the August 1984 transaction in which Inameds McGhan Medical subsidiary purchased 3Ms plastic surgery business. To resolve these claims, on April 16, 1998, Inamed entered into a provisional agreement with 3M under which Inamed agreed to seek to obtain releases of claims asserted against 3M in lawsuits involving breast implants manufactured by Inameds McGhan Medical subsidiary. The 3M agreement provides for release of 3Ms indemnity claim upon achievement of an agreed minimum number of conditional releases for 3M.
42
Under the terms of the 3M agreement, as later amended in January 1999, Inamed paid $3.0 million to 3M in February 1999. Also under the terms of the 3M agreement, Inamed assumed limited indemnification obligations to 3M beginning in the year 2000, subject to a cap of $1.0 million annually and $3.0 million to $3.9 million in total. For 2000, our total obligation under the 3M agreement, as amended, was $0.3 million, which we paid. In March 2002, 3M made a demand under the 3M agreement for $0.2 million relating to 2001. We have not received a further request for indemnification under this agreement.
Sager Litigation
Inamed and its Inamed Medical Products Corporation subsidiary were defendants in Vickie Sager and Elizabeth Weichsel v. Inamed Corporation, et al., Case No. 01043771, Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Santa Barbara.
Without admitting any fault or liability, and to avoid the substantial cost of further complex litigation, Inamed agreed to settle the case in 2003 and paid $2.1 million into a settlement fund for the costs of notice, claims administration, the payment of verified claims, court-approved reasonable attorney fees, and related matters. On November 5, 2003, the court preliminarily approved the settlement agreement in this case. A hearing on the parties application for final approval of the settlement was held on March 30, 2004, at that time the Court signed and filed its final judgment approving the settlement. The time for the filing of any appeals of such final judgment has expired.
PATENTS AND LICENSE LITIGATION
Kuzmak Matter
Effective June 21, 2004, the Company, Ethicon, and Dr. Kuzmak, the parties to the civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (No. CV-99-02160 MMM), reached a settlement of the action wherein Inamed received a license to the entire Kuzmak patent portfolio, including the patents asserted in the California federal action, for the life of the patents in exchange for an up from payment of $17.25 million and an ongoing royalty on United States sales of the LAP-BAND® System, initially at 7.5%. Prior to this settlement, Inamed had been accruing a royalty on U.S. sales at 1.2%. The 7.5% royalty will be reduced to 5.5% if Ethicon is able to obtain approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the marketing of an adjustable gastric band sometime in the future. Inamed will also pay Ethicon 3.5% on all future foreign sales of the LAP-BAND® System. The U.S. and international royalties payable will decrease to 2% after June 20, 2011, and all Inamed royalty obligations will expire no later than May 12, 2013. The California federal action has been dismissed.
43
Manders Matter
Inamed is also a defendant in Ernest K. Manders, M.D. v. McGhan Medical et al., pending in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, Case No. 02-CV-1341. The Amended Complaint in the Manders case seeks damages for alleged infringement of a patent allegedly held by Manders in the field of tissue expanders. We do not believe we practice the device claimed by Manders or that we teach the methods he claims. Accordingly, in February 2003, we answered the complaint, denying its material allegations, and counterclaimed against Manders for declarations of invalidity as well as noninfringement. The time for fact discovery has been extended by the Court and is expected to be completed by July 31, 2004. Expert depositions relating to claim construction issues are expected to occur in August 2004. Manders has elected to limit his claim for infringement to twelve of the forty-six claims in his patent. The Court has scheduled the Markman hearing on these twelve claims for September 2004. Inamed believes it has strong defenses to this lawsuit and intends to defend it vigorously.
Brauman Matter
On April 2, 2004, Dr. Daniel Brauman filed a civil action against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, No. 04-CV-2568 (CLB). Dr. Brauman alleges that the Company is infringing U.S. Reissue Patent No. RE 35,391, entitled Implantable Prosthetic Devices (the RE 391 patent). Braumans complaint seeks permanent injunctive relief, compensatory and treble damages, and attorneys fees and costs. The Company filed an answer on June 15, 2004, denying all of the material allegations of the complaint, and asserted counterclaims for non-infringement and invalidity of the RE 391 patent. The court held a case management conference on June 25, 2004 and set a schedule that will have the case ready for trial on or after March 25, 2005. Discovery commenced on July 2, 2004. Inamed believes it has strong defenses to this lawsuit and intends to contest Dr. Braumans allegations vigorously.
Other Matters
Inamed is involved in various other legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, which may involve product liability claims for bodily injury and/or financial loss arising from the use of the Companys products. These claims have not had, and are not expected to have, a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.
