Notes To Financial Statements

1. The unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2006 included in the Company's Form 10-K filed on January 31, 2007. The unaudited financial statements presented herein have not been audited by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), but in the opinion of management such financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flow.

2. The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), Earnings per Share. SFAS 128 requires reporting both basic and diluted earnings per share. The Company has no common share equivalents such as preferred stock, warrants or stock options which would dilute earnings per share. Thus, earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period.

Average number of shares34,988,90135,323,558
Earnings per share$0.58$0.65

The average number of shares outstanding during the periods reflects the issuance of 257,696 shares in February/March 2006 and 233,138 shares in February 2007 pursuant to the 2004 Stock Purchase Plan.

3. The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130), Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. Comprehensive income is the total of net income and all other non-owner changes in equity including items such as net unrealized gains/losses/reclassifications on marketable securities classified as available for sale, foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension liability adjustments.

4. The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. SFAS 115 requires companies to classify their investments as trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. The Company's marketable securities consist of common and preferred equities which have been classified as available-for-sale. These are recorded in the financial statements at fair market value and any unrealized gains (losses) are reported as a component of shareholder equity. In addition the Company holds short and long term U.S. government agency issues which have been classified as held-to-maturity. These are recorded in the financial statements at their cost which approximates their fair value. The fair market value of marketable securities was determined based on quoted market prices. At December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2007 the cost basis net of write-downs, unrealized gains, unrealized losses and fair market value of the Company's holdings are as follows:

 Dec 31, 2006Mar 31, 2007
 

Net cost of equities$190,591,039$185,341,184
Unrealized Gains26,840,48030,379,566
Unrealized Losses(13,992)--
Cost of agency issues59,990,00049,990,000
 

Fair Market Value$277,407,527$265,710,750
 

SFAS 115 requires that for each individual security classified as available-for-sale, a company shall determine whether a decline in fair value below the cost basis is other than temporary. If the decline in fair value is judged as such, the cost basis of the individual security shall be written down to fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down shall be reflected in earnings. At March 31, 2007 the Company's marketable securities had a fair market value of $265,710,750 which included only unrealized gains as there were no unrealized losses.

5. The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (SFAS 131), Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Based on the criteria set forth in SFAS 131 the Company currently operates in one operating segment, medical software and services. The Company derives substantially all of its operating revenue from the sale and support of one group of similar products and services. All of the Company's assets are located within the United States. The following table indicates the source of operating revenue.

All others1%3%

6. The Company accounts for its equity investments in LSS Data Systems Inc., Patient Care Technologies Inc. and MEDITECH South Africa in accordance with the cost method. All three companies license the Company's software technology and re-license it to their respective customers. Each serves a market niche which is part of the overall medical market but is outside of the hospital market which the Company serves. Included in these investments are the $2,560,000 balance on a mortgage note from LSS Data Systems Inc. and the $4,000,000 balance on a mortgage note due from Patient Care Technologies Inc. Both of these mortgage notes are fully collateralized by land and buildings owned and occupied as corporate headquarters by the respective borrowers. The Company believes the fair value of these investments approximates its carrying value of $11,952,604 at March 31, 2007. Refer to Part II Item 5 for disclosure regarding subsequent events concerning Patient Care Technologies Inc.

7. As of March 31, 2007 the Company had capitalized $6,000,404 in land costs, $2,316,534 in architectural and engineering fees, and $9,226,072 in construction costs for a facility under development to be used for the Company's ongoing operations.

8. Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

Effective January 1, 2007 the Company adopted Financial Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 requires a new evaluation process for all tax positions taken. If the probability for sustaining said tax position is greater than 50%, then the tax position is warranted and recognition should be at the highest amount which would be expected to be realized upon ultimate settlement.

The December 31, 2006 tax reserves of $13,379,901 have been reevaluated accordingly and the adoption of FIN 48 had no material impact. No changes have been made to the Company's policy on classification of related interest and penalties in our financial statements. Such interest and penalties are included in our income tax expense and $7,412,140 of tax reserves are related to interest and penalties. The years 2004 through 2006 are subject to examination by the U.S. Government, and various years are subject to examination by states. The tax positions provide for research credit, domestic production activities deduction, and state nexus. With each year our tax exposure rolls forward with incremental increases expected based on continued growth and no changes are foreseen to this trend at present. Should the tax reserves be reversed in its entirety during 2007, the effective tax rate of 37% would drop to 28%.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations3 months ended Mar 31 
 20062007Change




Total revenue$82,189,658$91,683,09111.6%
Operating income29,173,06133,166,30313.7%
Net income20,200,41422,986,98813.8%

Earnings per share$0.58$0.6512.7%
Cash dividends per share$0.54$0.6011.1%

Total revenue from both existing and new customers increased by $9.5 million. It was composed of a $6.2 million increase in product revenue and a $3.3 million increase in service revenue.

Operating expense increased by $5.5 million or 10.4% due to an overall increase in staff and additional bonus expense accruals. The resultant operating income increased by $4.0 million.

Other income decreased by $0.3 million due primarily to reduced rental income. Other expense decreased by $0.3 million due primarily to reduced rental expenses. The resultant pretax income increased by $4.0 million or 12.2%.

The Company's effective tax rate decreased from 38.3% to 37.4% due primarily to a higher tax deduction for domestic manufacturing. Net income increased by $2.8 million due primarily to the greater increase in revenue compared to expense.

Cash and equivalents$13,660,733$29,520,473
Total assets486,654,412494,079,071
Total liabilities73,344,10968,590,983

Outstanding number of shares35,168,13335,401,271
Shareholder equity per share$11.75$12.02

At December 31, 2006 the Company had no payroll tax withholding outstanding while $2.6 million was outstanding at March 31, 2007. This is the primary reason accounts payable increased by $3.5 million during the quarter.

Taxes payable increased by $7.6 million during the quarter primarily as a result of the federal tax payment schedule which calls for payment of both the first and second quarter's tax expense during the second quarter.

Accrued expenses decreased by $16.1 million during the quarter primarily as a result of the payment of $26.2 million in bonuses applicable to 2006, offset by the accrual of $8.7 million in bonus expenses applicable to 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

At March 31, 2007 the Company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $295.2 million. Marketable securities consisted of preferred equities, common equities and government notes which can easily be converted to cash. For the first three months of 2007 cash flow from operations was $20.1 million, cash flow from investing was $8.7 million and cash flow used in financing was $12.9 million. The payment of $21.1 million in dividends to shareholders was the primary use of cash generated by operating activities during the quarter.

MEDITECH has no long-term debt. Shareholder equity at March 31, 2007 was $425.5 million. Management anticipates additions to fixed assets will continue, including new facilities and computer systems for product development, sales and marketing, implementation, service and administrative staff. Management believes existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities together with funds generated from operations will be sufficient to meet operating and capital expense requirements for the foreseeable future.

Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

None.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, on the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, effective to ensure information requiring disclosure by the Company in reports which it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting occurring during the fiscal quarter covered by this report which have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

During February 2005 a former employee filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts against the Medical Information Technology Profit Sharing Plan and all six of the Company's Directors. The complaint was subsequently amended to add the Company as a defendant. During March 2006 the court dismissed the breach of fiduciary duty claims brought against the individual defendants. The remaining claim is an ERISA benefits claim against the Plan, the Plan's trustee, and the Company. The substance of the complaint is summarized in the 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K. During March 2007 the court denied the plaintiff's motion for the complaint to be certified as a class action.

Item 1A - Risk Factors

No material changes from risk factors as previously disclosed in the prior Form 10-K.

Item 5 - Other Information

Acquisition of Patient Care Technologies, Inc.

Patient Care Technologies, Inc. (PtCT) is engaged in the development, manufacture and licensing of computer software products and their support for the home health care industry. Before April 12, 2007 MEDITECH owned approximately 43.5% of the outstanding capital stock of PtCT. On April 12, 2007 MEDITECH acquired additional shares from certain shareholders of PtCT for an aggregate purchase price of $2,326,443 paid in cash. As a result of these purchases, MEDITECH now owns approximately 90.2% of PtCT. MEDITECH expects to acquire the remaining 9.8% of PtCT for approximately $800 thousand during the 2nd quarter of 2007.

Subject to a final audit, PtCT had approximately $6.4 million in total assets and approximately $8.9 million in total liabilities at March 31, 2007. Through the remainder of 2007, MEDITECH anticipates PtCT's operations will generate approximately $3 million in pretax losses. Meditech's financial statements for the 2nd quarter and thereafter will be presented on a consolidated basis.
