INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Uroplasty, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Uroplasty, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Uroplasty, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

UROPLASTY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2001 and 2000

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business. Uroplasty, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “UPI”) is a manufacturer and distributor of urological and plastic surgery implantable medical devices. The primary focus of the Company’s business is the marketing of an implantable device for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence and vesicoureteral reflux. Currently, all sales of the Company’s products are to customers outside the United States by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.

The Company incurred losses of $1,680,899 and $1,348,834 and generated negative cash flows from operating activities of $1,224,658 and $1,219,981 for the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The Company is currently selling its products outside of the United States and is undertaking IDE clinical trials in the United States. Based on the Company’s current plans, it is anticipated that the Company will launch its products in the U.S. after obtaining FDA approval. Completing clinical trials and obtaining FDA approval is a costly and time-consuming process. To conserve cash, the Company reduced its work force during the year ended March 31, 2001. Management believes that this work force reduction combined with the Company’s ability to manage cash, if required, through a less aggressive clinical trial schedule should provide adequate cash flows to fund the Company’s obligations through mid 2002. In the event the Company were not to generate adequate cash flows from operations or financing activities, the Company’s U.S. market launch could be delayed. Ultimately, the Company will need to achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operations or obtain additional debt or equity financing to fund its operations.

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned foreign subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of product to customers. Upon shipment, the risks and rewards of ownership are passed on to the buyer. There are no customer acceptance provisions or Company installation obligations. The Company’s sells to distributors who sell to other distributors and end users. Sales to distributors were $3,300,000 and $3,100,000 in fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively, or 58% and 56%, respectively, of net sales. Distributor sales are recognized upon shipment. Distributor payment terms range from prepayment to 60 days and are not contingent on the distributor selling the product to other distributors or end users. Distributors do not have the right to return unsold product to the Company except for warranty claims. The Company offers customary product warranties, which are not significant. The allowance for doubtful accounts for distributors was zero at both March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Marketable Securities. The Company’s marketable debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value.

Patents. Patents are stated at cost and are amortized over six years using the straight-line method.

Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Due to historical net losses of the Company a valuation allowance is established to offset the net deferred tax asset.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market (net realizable value) and consist of the following at March 31, 2001 and 2000:

                 
    2001     2000  
   
   
 
Raw materials
  $ 82,827     $ 127,169

Depreciation is provided for using both straight-line and accelerated methods over useful lives of four to seven years for equipment and 40 years for the building. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful service lives.

Research and Development. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist of the following for the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000:

  $ 2,150,177     $ 1,684,178  
 
 
   
 

Foreign Currency Translation. The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries were translated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation”. Under this Statement, all assets and liabilities are translated using period-end exchange rates and statements of operations items are translated using average exchange rates for the period. The resulting translation adjustment is recorded within accumulated other comprehensive loss, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recognized currently in the Statement of Operations, including unrealized gains and losses on short-term inter-company obligations using period-end exchange rates. Unrealized gains and losses on long-term inter-company obligations are recognized within accumulated other comprehensive loss, a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Stock-Based Compensation. The Company applies the intrinsic-value method to account for employee stock based compensation. As such, compensation expense, if any, is recorded on the date of grant if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. For non-employees the Company uses the fair-value method.

Reconciliation of Earnings and Share Amounts Used in EPS Calculation. Basic loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was calculated using the treasury-stock method to compute the weighted average common stock outstanding assuming the conversion of dilutive potential common shares.

Options and warrants to purchase 1,199,200 shares of common stock at per share amounts ranging from $.50 to $3.50 per share were outstanding during 2001 but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because net loss realized during the year would cause the potential common shares to have an anti-dilutive effect. The options expire from April 2001 to June 2006. During 2000 options and warrants to purchase 881,662 shares of common stock at per share amounts ranging from $.50 to $3.56 per share were outstanding during 2000 but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because net loss realized during the year would cause the potential common shares to have an anti-dilutive effect.

New Accounting Pronouncements. Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, established accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. The statement requires that an entity recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for the Company as of April 1, 2001. The Company has evaluated SFAS No. 133 and determined that the pronouncement will not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. Marketable Securities

The amortized cost, gross unrealized holding gains, gross unrealized holding losses and fair value for available-for-sale securities by major security type and class of security were as follows:

5. Shareholders’ Equity

Stock Options. Pursuant to the Company’s two stock option plans, the Company has reserved 1,800,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance to employees, directors, consultants, and independent contractors. Outstanding options generally expire five years from date of grant and vest at varying rates ranging up to three years. Options are granted at the discretion of the directors and are exercisable in amounts equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at date of grant. The plans provide for the exercise of options during a limited period following termination of employment, death, or disability.

Stock option activity under these plans is summarized as follows:

Warrants. In connection with the June 18, 1998 private placement, warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock were issued at an exercise price of $2.38 per share. At March 31, 2001 all of these warrants were outstanding and scheduled to expire on June 18, 2003.

Stock Option Plans. The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, in accounting for its stock incentive plans for employees and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized in the financial statements for employee and director stock options granted under its stock option plans. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company’s net loss would have decreased to the pro forma amounts shown below:

                   
      2001     2000  
     
   
 
Net loss:
               
 
As reported
  $ (1,680,899 )   $ (1,348,834 )
 
Pro forma
  $ (1,954,978 )   $ (1,412,557 )
Net loss per common share — basic:
               
 
As reported
    (0.28 )     (0.23 )
 
Pro forma
    (0.33 )     (0.24 )

Pro forma net loss only reflects options granted in 1996 and thereafter. Therefore, the full impact of calculating compensation cost for stock options under SFAS No. 123 is not reflected in the pro forma net loss amounts presented above because compensation cost is reflected over the options’ vesting period and compensation cost for options granted prior to April 1, 1995 is not considered.

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during 2001 and 2000 was $1.62 and $1.49, respectively on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

                 
    2001     2000  
   
   
 
Expected dividend yield
    0.00 %     0.00 %
Risk-free interest rate

6. Commitments and Contingencies

License Agreement. In December 1995, the Company obtained a license from a British surgeon, which became superseded by a subsequent Agreement entered into by the parties in October 1998. Pursuant to this subsequent Agreement, the

Company received an absolute assignment of a patent relating to the Macroplastique Implantation System in return for a royalty for each unit sold during the life of the patent. The aggregate amount of royalty expense recognized by the Company pursuant to such royalty agreement during fiscal year ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000 was $20,105 and $2,683, respectively.

Savings and Retirement Plans. The Company sponsors various plans for eligible employees in the United States, the United Kingdom, and The Netherlands. The total contribution expense associated with these plans was $124,692 and $53,787 for the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Operating Lease Commitments. The Company leases office, warehouse, and production space under three operating leases and leases various automobiles for its European employees. Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases with an initial term in excess of one year for the ensuing years ending March 31 are as follows:

         
2002
  $ 275,281  
2003
    148,239  
2004
    18,786  
2005
    5,911  
 
 
 
 
  $ 448,217  
 
 
 

Total rent expense paid for operating leases was $362,684 and $353,993 in 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Royalties. Under the terms of an agreement with former officers and directors of the Company, the Company pays royalties equal to between three percent and five percent of the net sales of certain products, subject to a specified monthly minimum of $4,500. The royalties payable under this agreement will continue until the patent referenced in the agreement expires in 2010. Total expense recognized under the agreement was $179,403 and $196,991 for the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Under the terms of a settlement agreement for a patent suit brought by a competitor in 1991, UPI is obligated to pay the plaintiff a royalty equal to five percent of the net sales of certain products in the United States, or a minimum of $50,000 per year as long as the products are being marketed abroad. Total expense recognized under the agreement was $50,000 for each of the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Legal Proceedings. On July 21, 1998, the Company announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) had informed the Company that the USPTO will, as requested by the Company, initiate an interference proceeding (“the Interference Proceeding”) between the Company and Carbon Medical Technologies, Inc. (“CMT”), formerly Advanced UroScience, Inc., White Bear Lake, Minnesota, to determine which company was the first to invent pyrolytic carbon-coated micro beads for use in treating urinary incontinence. The USPTO has not, as of June 14, 2001, formally declared the Interference Proceeding.

At such time as the Interference Proceeding is formally declared, it could take the USPTO twenty-four months or more to reach a final decision concerning this matter. Although the USPTO originally granted the applicable patent to CMT, the Interference Proceeding may result in a determination that either Uroplasty, Inc. or CMT is the proper holder, or that a patent should not have been granted. An interference proceeding, like other patent litigation, can be complex, time consuming and expensive.

Later in 1998, the Company commenced a related lawsuit against CMT for misappropriation of trade secrets (“Misappropriation Lawsuit”) pertaining to the pyrolytic carbon-coated micro beads, among other things. CMT, subsequent to December 31, 1998, brought a counterclaim against the Company with respect to such matter. In October 1999, the Company announced that the U.S. District Court for Minnesota had granted a motion by CMT to dismiss the Misappropriation Lawsuit, which the Company appealed.

Subsequently, the U.S. Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit, notified the Company that pursuant to the Company’s request, the Company’s appeal was transferred to the Federal Circuit, and in May 2000 the Company filed its appeal of the District Court’s order granting summary judgment with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

In February 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Circuit Court”) granted the Company’s appeal of the dismissal of the Misappropriation Lawsuit. The Circuit Court vacated the dismissal by the U.S. District Court for Minnesota due to lack of jurisdiction and remanded the case; a motion to dismiss the Misappropriation Lawsuit brought by CMT is now pending in Ramsey County District Court in Minnesota.

Employment Agreements. The Company has entered into employment agreements in fiscal 2000 with certain officers, the terms of which, among other things, specify a base salary subject to annual adjustment by mutual agreement of the parties, and a severance payment to the employee upon employment termination without cause. Any severance amounts payable under the agreement shall be limited to the employee’s base salary for not less than four months and not longer than twelve months after employment termination, depending on the employee’s years of service. Contemporaneously with the execution of the employment agreement, each of the officers executed an Employee Confidentiality, Inventions, Non-Solicitation, and Non-Compete Agreement, certain terms of which specify the Employee shall not disclose confidential information, shall assign to the Company without charge all intellectual property relating to the Company’s business which is created or conceived during the term of employment, shall not encourage Employees to leave the employment of the Company for any reason and shall not compete with the Company during the term of employment and for a period of eighteen months thereafter. Also in connection with the execution of these Agreements, the officers were granted varying amounts of stock options to purchase the Company’s common stock at the fair market value at date of grant of $2.50 per share. In all cases the options are exercisable for five years or until one year after employment termination (subject to certain termination provisions), whichever date is earlier, and vest in three equal amounts on each one-year anniversary date subsequent to the option grant date.

7. Income Taxes

  $     $  
 
 
   
 

At March 31, 2001 the Company had U.S. net operating loss carryforwards (NOL) of approximately $4,713,000 for U.S. income tax purposes, which begin to expire in 2012 through 2032, and foreign NOL’s of approximately $1,736,000 of which approximately $1,634,000 carries forward indefinitely and approximately $102,000 begin to expire in 2002 through 2011. U.S. net operating loss carryforwards cannot be used to offset taxable income in foreign jurisdictions. In addition, U.S. tax rules impose limitations on the use of net operating losses following certain changes in ownership. Such a change in ownership may limit the amount of these benefits that would be available to offset future taxable income each year, starting with the year of ownership change.

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has established a valuation allowance for U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty that enough income will be generated in those taxing jurisdictions to utilize the assets. Therefore, the Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating loss carryforwards in the accompanying financial statements. The deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance increased by $587,000 from 2000 to 2001.

8. Restructuring Activities

In order to reduce costs, thirteen positions worldwide were canceled in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, either by terminating employment agreements or attrition. Two manufacturing positions were eliminated, three administrative positions, four positions in research and development and four sales and marketing positions. The total severance payments recorded in the fourth quarter fiscal 2001 for terminated employees were $178,249. Substantially all termination obligations were paid in fiscal 2001.

There are no restructuring related cash obligations remaining as of March, 31, 2001 other than the employee accruals noted above.

9. Termination Distribution Agreement

In order to establish distribution in France with a prominent urology organization, the Company entered into an agreement to terminate the distribution of its products in France by its then existing distributor. Under the terms of the negotiated early termination, the Company agreed to compensate the distributor for lost profits as provided by French law, as well as for agreements not to compete or disclose information for a limited period of time and to provide information and assistance in transitioning business to the new distributor. Payments totaling approximately $288,000 will be made by the Company in fourteen equal monthly payments beginning in January 2001. The total amount of payments will be recorded as a liability and corresponding expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 ending on March 31, 2001.

10. Business Segment Information

The Company sells Macroplastique and the related ancillary products for use in augmenting soft tissues for the purpose of treating urinary incontinence and vesicoureteral reflux. At this time, sales are only made outside the United States because the Company does not have regulatory approval to market its product in the United States. The Company’s current objectives are to focus on sales growth and market penetration of Macroplastique in the European market for urinary incontinence and vesicoureteral reflux treatment, and to continue the U.S. regulatory process for submission of Macroplastique as a treatment for female stress urinary incontinence. The Company also sells the Macroplastique product in a different configuration for plastic surgery applications under the name Bioplastique in limited markets. In addition, the Company has been selling some specialized wound care products in The Netherlands and United Kingdom as a distributor. The Macroplastique product line accounts for 92% of total sales during both the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

Based upon the above, the Company has identified one reportable operating segment consisting of medical products primarily for the urology market.

During fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000 no customer exceeded 10% of the Company’s net sales.
