4.  Hemosphere Acquisition

4.Hemosphere Acquisition

Overview

On May 16, 2012 CryoLife completed its acquisition of 100% of the outstanding equity of Hemosphere, a privately held company, for $17.0 million in cash, an additional $3.2 million to pay for cash acquired, and contingent consideration with a fair value estimated to be approximately $1.8 million at acquisition, for a total purchase price of approximately $22.0 million. CryoLife used cash on hand to fund the transaction and operates Hemosphere as a wholly owned subsidiary.

Hemosphere is the developer and marketer of theHemodialysisReliableOutflow Graft (“HeRO® Graft”), a proprietary graft-based solution for end-stage renal disease hemodialysis patients with limited access options and central venous obstruction.

Contingent Consideration

As of the acquisition date, CryoLife recorded a contingent consideration liability of $1.8 million in long-term liabilities on its Summary Consolidated Balance Sheet, representing the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration expected to be paid to the

6


former shareholders of Hemosphere upon the achievement of certain revenue-based milestones. The acquisition agreement provides for a maximum of $4.5 million in future consideration payments through December 2015 based on specified sales targets.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability was based on unobservable inputs, including management estimates and assumptions about future revenues, and is, therefore, classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy presented in Note 2. The Company will remeasure this liability at each reporting date and will record changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability in other expense (income), net on the Company’s Summary Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Increases or decreases in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability can result from changes in discount periods and rates, as well as changes in the timing and amount of Company revenue estimates.

The Company recorded lossesa gain of $39,000$32,000 and $25,000a loss of $37,000 in the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $78,000losses of $46,000 and $25,000$62,000 in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, on the remeasurement of the contingent consideration liability. The gains and losses in the current and prior yearsyear periods are due to the effect of the passage of time on the fair value measurements.measurements and changes in the Company’s estimates. The balance of the contingent consideration liability was $2.0 million as of JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and $1.9 million as of December 31, 2012.

Accounting for the Transaction

The Company recorded an allocation of the $22.0 million purchase price to Hemosphere’s tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of May 16, 2012. Goodwill was recorded based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired, and is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill from this transaction has been allocated to the Company’s medical devices segment. The purchase price allocation was finalized as of December 31, 2012.

CryoLife incurred transaction and integration costs related to the acquisition of approximately $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. These costs were expensed as incurred and were primarily recorded as general, administrative, and marketing expenses on the Company’s Summary Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company incurred integration costs during the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 related to the transfer of manufacturing operations, which will continue into the third quarter of 2013.operations. The Company does not expect to continue to incur significant transaction or integration costs in the fourth quarter of 2013.

5.ValveXchange

5.  ValveXchangePreferred Stock Investment

In July 2011 the Company purchased shares of series A preferred stock of ValveXchange, Inc. (“ValveXchange”) for approximately $3.5 million. ValveXchange is a private medical device company that was spun off from Cleveland Clinic to develop a lifetime heart valve replacement technology platform featuring exchangeable bioprosthetic leaflets. The Company’s carrying value of this investment includes the purchase price and certain transaction costs, and CryoLife’s investment represents an approximate 19% equity ownership in ValveXchange based on ValveXchange’s current capitalization. As ValveXchange’s stock is not actively traded on any public stock exchange and as the Company’s investment is in preferred stock, the Company accounts for this investment using the cost method. The Company recorded its investment as a long-term asset, investment in equity securities, on the Company’s Summary Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2013 the Company determined that available information indicated that it should reevaluate its investment in ValveXchange preferred stock for impairment. Based on this updated analysis, the Company does not believe that its investment in ValveXchange was impaired in the second quarter of 2013. If the Company subsequently determines that the value of its ValveXchange stock has been impaired, or if the Company decides to sell its ValveXchange Preferred Stock for less than the carrying value, the resulting impairment charge or realized loss on sale of the investment in ValveXchange could be material.

The carrying value of the Company’s 2.4 million shares of ValveXchange preferred stock was $3.2 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Loan Agreement

In July 2011 the Company entered into an agreement with ValveXchange, as amended, to make available up to $2.0 million to ValveXchange in debt financing through a revolving credit facility (“Loan”). The Loan includes various affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenant requirements, and expires on July 30, 2018, unless terminated earlier. Amounts loaned under the Loan will earn interest at an 8% annual rate and are secured by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of ValveXchange. The Company incurred loan origination costs, net of fees charged to ValveXchange, of approximately $117,000, which are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the loan facility. The Company advanced $2.0 million to

7


ValveXchange under this loan in 2012. The $2.0 million advance is recorded as long-term notes receivable on the Company’s Summary Consolidated Balance Sheets as of JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

ValveXchange is currently attempting to raise additional funds to support its operations until it can obtain a larger financing. On July 22, 2013 CryoLife notified ValveXchange that ValveXchange was in default of certain loan covenants, due to factors including ValveXchange’s failure to obtain CryoLife’s consent for a certain convertible note financing that ValveXchange obtained in July 2013. CryoLife and ValveXchange has 15 daysare continuing to cure the defaults and, if it failswork to do so, anresolve this event of default, will exist. CryoLifewhich was ongoing as of October 24, 2013.

Investment and Loan Analysis

During the quarter ended September 30, 2013 the Company determined that available information, including ValveXchange’s financial condition and cash position, indicated that it should reevaluate its investment in ValveXchange preferred stock for impairment. However, based on this updated analysis, the Company does not believe that its investment in ValveXchange was impaired in the third quarter of 2013. If the Company subsequently determines that the value of its ValveXchange stock has been impaired, if ValveXchange issues additional shares at a valuation materially different than the carrying value of the Company’s shares, or if the Company decides to sell its ValveXchange Preferred Stock for less than the carrying value, the resulting impairment charge or realized loss on sale of the investment in negotiations with ValveXchange could be material. The carrying value of the Company’s 2.4 million shares of ValveXchange preferred stock was $3.2 million as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

ValveXchange is currently attempting to obtain certain modificationsraise additional funds to the Loan in light of this new convertible note.support its short-term and long-term operations. However, even if ValveXchange is able to secure some additional financing, if it is unable to secure sufficient financing to continueobtain additional amounts and cannot meet its business,obligations, CryoLife may need to foreclose on the related collateral to secure repayment of the Loan. Although CryoLife currently believes that the value of the collateral is adequate to repay the Loan, there is no guarantee that the security for the notes will be sufficient to repay the Loan. IfIn addition, if CryoLife is forced to foreclose on the Loan, it may materially, adversely impactaffect the value of CryoLife’s preferred stock investment in ValveXchange. The Company may decide to allow ValveXchange to issue shares in payment of some or all of the outstanding debt balance in connection with a future round of financing.

Option Agreement

Concurrently with the Loan described above, CryoLife entered into an option agreement with ValveXchange through which CryoLife obtained the right of first refusal to acquire ValveXchange during a period that extends through the completion of initial commercialization milestones and the right to negotiate with ValveXchange for European distribution rights. The Company’s rights may be modified or reduced in connection with a future round of financing.

6.  CardioFocus Settlement

6.CardioFocus Settlement

On June 14, 2012 CryoLife’s subsidiary, Cardiogenesis Corporation (“Cardiogenesis’Cardiogenesis”), entered into a settlement agreement with respect to its litigation with CardioFocus, Inc. (“CardioFocus”). Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, Cardiogenesis paid $4.5 million in cash to CardioFocus. Cardiogenesis and CardioFocus agreed and acknowledged that each party would bear its own costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in or as a result of the litigation. On June 14, 2012 the parties filed a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.

As a result of the settlement, the Company recorded an additional loss of $3.6 million in general, administrative, and marketing expenses on its Summary Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income in the second quarter of 2012 for a total of $4.1 million in legal settlement expenses for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. The Company paid the $4.5 million settlement payment to CardioFocus in July 2012 using cash on hand.

7.  Medafor Matters

7.Medafor Matters

Investment in Medafor Common Stock

In 2009 and 2010 CryoLife purchased shares of common stock in Medafor, Inc. (“Medafor”). As financial information for Medafor is not readily available and as the Company does not exert significant influence over the operations of Medafor, the Company accounted for its investment in Medafor common stock using the cost method. The Company recorded the stock as a long-term asset, investment in equity securities, on the Company’s Summary Consolidated Balance Sheets.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2013 the Company reviewed available information and determined that no factors were present indicating that the Company should evaluate the carrying value of its cost method investment in Medafor common stock for impairment. The carrying value of the Company’s 2.4 million shares of Medafor common stock was approximately $2.6 million as of both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The Company will continue to evaluate the carrying value of this investment if factors become known that indicate the Company should evaluate its investment in Medafor common stock for impairment. If the Company subsequently determines that the value of its Medafor common stock has been impaired, or if the Company decides to sell its Medafor common stock for more or less than the carrying value, the resulting impairment charge or realized gain or loss on sale of the investment in Medafor could be material.

In connection with its purchase of Medafor common stock, the Company entered into agreements with the sellers that could have required CryoLife to make additional payments to the sellers if CryoLife acquired or merged with Medafor within a specified time period. The Company accounted for these provisions as an embedded derivative. The last of these provisions expired in June 2013.2013, and as of September 30, 2013 a derivative no longer exists. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 the value of the Medafor Derivativethis derivative was zero.

C.R. Bard’s Acquisition of Medafor

On October 1, 2013 C.R. Bard, Inc. completed its previously announced acquisition of the outstanding shares of Medafor common stock. The Company received an initial payment of approximately $15.4 million for its 2.4 million shares of Medafor common stock and will record an initial gain of approximately $12.7 million on the sale in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company could receive additional payments totaling up to an additional $8.4 million upon the release of funds held in escrow and the satisfaction of certain contingent milestones, measurable through June 2015. The first of these additional payments, which the Company believes could be up to approximately $575,000, if released, would be received in late 2014, although this amount is subject to possible offsets. These payments will be recorded as an additional gain when and if received by the Company.

Investment Analysis

During the quarter ended September 30, 2013 the Company reviewed available information, including the pending acquisition, and determined that no factors were present indicating that the Company should evaluate the carrying value of its cost method investment in Medafor common stock for impairment. The carrying value of the Company’s 2.4 million shares of Medafor common stock was approximately $2.6 million as of both September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Distribution Agreement and Legal Action

CryoLife distributed a powdered hemostat for Medafor from 2008 to 2010. CryoLife filed a lawsuit against Medafor in 2009 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia (“Georgia Court”). In 2010 Medafor filed counterclaims against CryoLife in the same case. The litigation related to an exclusive distribution agreement that the parties entered into in April 2008.

In June 2012 the parties entered into a settlement agreement. Per the settlement, Medafor paid $3.5 million in cash to CryoLife in the third quarter of 2012. On June 29, 2012 the parties jointly filed stipulated dismissals with prejudice with the Georgia Court. As a result of the settlement, CryoLife recorded a gain of $4.7 million as a reduction in general, administrative, and marketing expenses on its Summary Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income in the second quarter of 2012 and recorded a reduction in accounts payable of $1.2 million to write off a payable for previous inventory purchases, which was discharged pursuant to the settlement agreement.

CryoLife received a letter from Medafor in September 2012 stating that PerClot®, when introduced in the U.S., will, when used in accordance with the method published in CryoLife’s literature and with the instructions for use, infringe Medafor’s U.S. patent. CryoLife does not believe that it will infringe Medafor’s patent. There have been no further communications between CryoLife and Medafor or CryoLife and C.R. Bard, Inc. related to the September letter.

10.  Income Taxes

10.Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate was approximately 35%32% and 31% for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to 41% and 40% for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively. The Company’s income tax rate for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was favorably impactedaffected by the full year 2012 research and development tax credit, which was enacted in January 2013 and, therefore, reduced the Company’s tax expense during the first quarter of 2013. The Company’s income tax rate in 2012 was negatively impactedaffected by the absence of a research and development tax credit, which was not enacted for the 2012 tax year during 2012.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and tax return purposes. The Company generates deferred tax assets primarily as a result of book write-downs, reserves, or impairments which are not immediately deductible for tax return purposes. The Company acquired significant deferred tax assets, primarily net operating loss carryforwards, from its acquisitions of Hemosphere and Cardiogenesis in the second quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company currently estimates that a portion of its state net operating

10


loss carryforwards will not be recoverable and has, therefore, recorded a valuation allowance against these state net operating loss carryforwards.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.Overview

Overview

CryoLife, Inc. (“CryoLife,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us”), incorporated in 1984 in Florida, develops, manufactures, and commercializes medical devices for cardiac and vascular applications and preserves and distributes human tissues for transplantation. CryoLife’s surgical sealants and hemostats include BioGlue® Surgical Adhesive (“BioGlue”), BioFoam® Surgical Matrix (“BioFoam”), and PerClot®, an absorbable powdered hemostat, which the Company distributes for Starch Medical, Inc. (“SMI”) in the European Community and other select international markets. CryoLife’s subsidiary, Cardiogenesis Corporation (“Cardiogenesis”), specializes in the treatment of coronary artery disease using a laser console system and single use, fiber-optic handpieces to treat patients with severe angina. CryoLife and its subsidiary, Hemosphere, Inc. (“Hemosphere”), market theHemodialysisReliableOutflow Graft (“HeRO® Graft”), which is a solution for end-stage renal disease in certain hemodialysis patients. The cardiac and vascular human tissues distributed by CryoLife include the CryoValve® SG pulmonary heart valve (“CryoValve SGPV”) and the CryoPatch® SG pulmonary cardiac patch tissue (“CryoPatch SG”), both processed using CryoLife’s proprietary SynerGraft® technology.

The quarter ended June 30, 2013 was marked by several new regulatory approvals, which the Company received in June. The Company was awarded a CE Mark for the HeRO Graft, and the first HeRO Graft clinical case in Europe was performed in July 2013. The surgeons performing this initial case will establish the first HeRO Graft training center in Europe, which will support the Company’s controlled market introduction of the product during the second half of 2013, followed by a broader European launch in 2014. CryoLife also received conditional approval of its investigational device exemption (“IDE”) for PerClot from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). IDE approval would allow the Company to begin clinical trials for the purpose of obtaining Premarket Approval (“PMA”) to distribute PerClot in the U.S. As part of the conditional approval for the PerClot IDE, the Company must make certain revisions to the investigational study protocol, clinical product labeling, and Patient Informed Consent forms. The Company anticipates refiling the IDE submission in the third quarter of 2013. Subject to satisfaction of the FDA’s conditions, the Company plans to begin enrollment in the pivotal trial in the fourth quarter of 2013 or the first quarter of 2014. In June the Company also received PMA supplement approval from the FDA for its redesigned Sologrip® and PEARL minimally invasive laser fiber-optic handpieces. The Company began distributing this new handpiece design exclusively at the end of the second quarter of 2013.

In April the Company hosted its first Central Venous Pathology Summit focused on treatment strategies for durable hemodialysis access in cases of central venous pathology through an interactive, data-driven and clinically-focused didactic and hands-on wet lab practicum. The summit featured the HeRO Graft and included presentations from several private companies with emerging technologies.

For the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 CryoLife reported all-time record quarterly revenues of $33.5$36.3 million, largely driven in part by strong sales of BioGlue, in what is typically a slower sales period for the Company’s HeRO Graftsurgical sealants. The Company’s BioGlue, PerClot, and revascularization technologies product lines. HeRO Graftlines and vascular preservation services all had the highest revenues were $1.4recorded by the Company during a third quarter. The Company’s cardiac preservation services reported a quarterly all-time record, reaching $8.6 million for the quarter, the best revenue quarter since thefirst time. The Company’s acquisition of thisHeRO Graft product line showed a small decrease in May 2012. Preservation services revenues during the quarter were negatively impacted byboth in comparison to the suspension letter received from the Human Tissue Authority (“HTA”) during the firstthird quarter of 2013, as discussed further below.2012 and the second quarter of 2013. The Company generated $5.2$7.3 million in operating cash during the quarter for a total of $4.0$11.3 million in operating cash generated in the first halfnine months of 2013. During the second quarter

In September 2013 the Company also increasedhosted its quarterly cash dividendfirst Aortic Valve and Root “Boot Camp” training session. This training was attended by 10% to $0.0275 per share. residents from official cardiothoracic surgery training programs and focused on aortic root anatomy, aortic valve and root, annulus enlargement, and myectomy; aortic repair and valve-sparing; aortic root replacement; and pulmonary autograft replacement, commonly known as the Ross Procedure.

See the “Results of Operations” section below for additional analysis of the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013.

Recent Events

C.R. Bard’s Acquisition of Medafor

On October 1, 2013 C.R. Bard, Inc. completed its previously announced acquisition of the outstanding shares of Medafor, Inc. (“Medafor”) common stock. The Company received an initial payment of approximately $15.4 million for its 2.4 million shares of Medafor common stock and will record an initial gain of approximately $12.7 million on the sale in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company could receive additional payments totaling up to an additional $8.4 million upon the release of funds held in escrow and the satisfaction of certain contingent milestones, measurable through June 2015. The first of these additional payments, which the Company believes could be up to approximately $575,000, if released, would be received in late 2014, although this amount is subject to possible offsets. These payments will be recorded as an additional gain when and if received by the Company.

Regulatory Activity

On January 30, 2013 CryoLife received a warning letter (“Warning Letter”) dated January 29, 2013 from the FDA.U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The Warning Letter followed a Form 483, Notice of Inspectional Observations from the FDA (“Form 483”), related to the Company’s processing, preservation, and distribution of human tissue and the manufacture of medical devices. The Form 483 followed a routine quality system inspection of the Company’s facilities by the FDA during the period September 17, 2012 to October 16, 2012. The Warning Letter relates to certain observations from the Form 483 that the FDA believes were either inadequately addressed by the Company’s responses or for which the FDA required further information to fully assess the Company’s corrective actions. The Company responded to the FDA’s requests and implemented corrective actions. During the second quarter of 2013 the Company received verbal communication from the FDA indicating that these corrective actions appear satisfactory in addressing the issues raised in the Warning Letter,Letter; however, the FDA will need to conduct an inspection to verify these corrective actions. ThisCryoLife believes that this inspection may occur later in 2013.the fourth quarter of 2013 or in 2014. The Company believes that these corrective actions will addresshave adequately addressed the FDA’s notice of violations contained in the Warning Letter; however, it is possible that the Company’s actions ultimately may not be satisfactory to the FDA. The

Company is awaiting re-inspection by the FDA. The Company believes that the Warning Letter and its actions regarding the Warning Letter and Form 483 will not have a material

impact effect on the Company. However, it is possible that further actions itthe Company may be required to take in response to the Form 483 and Warning Letter could materially, adversely impactaffect the availability of the Company’s tissues and products and cost structure, which could impactaffect the Company’s revenues, financial condition, profitability, or cash flows.

Following the receipt of the Warning Letter, CryoLife received a letter from the HTAHuman Tissue Authority (“HTA”) in London, U.K., on March 28, 2013, which governs the distribution of tissues by the Company’s subsidiary, CryoLife Europa, Ltd. (“Europa”), into markets in Europe. The letter temporarily suspended Europa’s license to import human tissue, due to concerns the HTA had related to the FDA Warning Letter, and directed Europa to issue a recall for tissues previously distributed which have not been implanted. The HTA subsequently issued a variance to allow Europa to continue to import tissue into Europe under certain circumstances for critically ill patients. This suspension, which was extended to September 22, 2013,patients; however, this variance could continue to be extended or end earlier basedrevoked at any time without further warning. In August the HTA reinstated Europa’s license but placed certain conditions on the Company’s abilityprocessing of tissue, which Europa has appealed. If the HTA does not reverse its decision related to addressthese processing conditions, the HTA’s concerns.Company may be unable to ship tissues into Europe. The suspension and subsequent activity has decreased and may continue to decrease European preservation services revenues, which totaled $2.3 million in 2012 $444,000and $1.1 million in the first quarternine months ended September 30, 2013, $444,000 of 2013, and $59,000 inwhich was recorded prior to the second quarter of 2013,HTA suspension, and were primarily related to the shipment of cardiac tissues. However, due to the low fees and high costs of distributing tissues into Europe, CryoLife does not believe that this suspension, including the related recall expenses, will have a material, adverse impacteffect on the Company’s financial condition, profitability, or cash flows.

On May 23, 2013 CryoLife received a Form 483 related to the Company’s subsidiary Cardiogenesis (“Cardiogenesis Form 483”). The Cardiogenesis Form 483 followed a quality system inspection of the Company’s facilities by the FDA in May 2013. The Cardiogenesis Form 483 contains certain observations including observations concerning labeling, complaint handling, and field actions. The Company has responded to the FDA’s requests and has implemented changes that it believes will address the FDA’s observations; however, it is possible that the Company may not be able to do so in a manner satisfactory to the FDA. The Company believes that the Cardiogenesis Form 483 will not have a material impacteffect on the Company. However, it is possible that actions itthe Company may be required to take in response to the Cardiogenesis Form 483 could materially, adversely impactaffect the Company’s revascularization technologies revenues, financial condition, profitability, or cash flows. Subsequent to receipt of the Cardiogenesis Form 483, as discussed above, the CompanyCardiogenesis received PMAPremarket Approval (“PMA”) supplement approval from the FDA for its redesigned Sologrip and PEARL handpieces.

Critical Accounting Policies

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. Management believes that the consistent application of these policies enables the Company to provide users of the financial statements with useful and reliable information about the Company’s operating results and financial condition. The summary consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions. The Company did not experience any significant changes during the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 in any of its Critical Accounting Policies from those contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2013 the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350):Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, which gives entities testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment the option of performing a qualitative assessment before performing the quantitative impairment test as well as the option to bypass the qualitative assessment in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, profitability, or cash flows.

In February 2013 the Company adopted ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which requires separate presentation of the components that are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes to the financial statements. This update also requires companies to disclose the income statement line items impactedaffected by any significant reclassifications. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial disclosures.

Revenues increased 1%8% and 5%6% for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively. A detailed discussion of the changes in product revenues and preservation services revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 is presented below.

Products

Revenues from products increased 9%11% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. Revenues from products increased 15%14% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. These increases were primarily due to an increase in BioGlue revenues. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was also due to the addition of HeRO Graft revenues as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Hemosphere in the second quarter of 2012. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was also due to an increase in BioGlue revenues. A detailed discussion of the changes in product revenues for BioGlue and BioFoam; PerClot; revascularization technologies; and HeRO Graft areis presented below.

 

1819


The Company’s sales of products through its direct sales force to U.K. hospitals are denominated in British Pounds, and its sales to German, Austrian, and Irish hospitals and certain distributors are denominated in Euros and are, therefore, subject to changes in foreign exchange rates. If the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and the British Pound or Euro decline materially in the future, this would have a material, adverse impacteffect on the Company’s revenues denominated in these currencies.

BioGlue and BioFoam

Revenues from the sale of surgical sealants, consisting of BioGlue and BioFoam, increased 1%12% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a 10% increase in the volume of milliliters sold, which increased revenues by 8%, an increase in average sales prices, which increased revenues by 3%, partially offset by aand the favorable effect of foreign currency exchange, which increased revenues less than 1% decrease in the volume of milliliters sold, which decreased revenues by 2%.

Revenues from the sale of surgical sealants consisting of BioGlue and BioFoam, increased 7%8% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a 7%an 8% increase in the volume of milliliters sold, which increased revenues by 5%6%, and by an increase in average sales prices, which increased revenues by 2%.

The decreaseincrease in sales volume of surgical sealants for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was primarily due to a decreasean increase in shipments of BioGlue in Japancertain international markets, and, to a lesser extent, due to a decreasean increase in the Company’s domestic markets, partially offset by increases in shipments in Europe and Brazil.markets. The increase in sales volume of surgical sealants for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was due to an increase in shipments of BioGlue in certain international markets, including Europe, Japan, and Brazil, partially offset by a volume decreasesdecrease in the Company’s domestic markets.

The increase in average sales prices for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to list price increases in domestic markets and due to the routine negotiation of pricing contracts with certain customers.

Revenues from shipments to Japan were $491,000 and $1.1 million for both the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $2.9$4.0 million and $2.3$3.4 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in BioGlue shipments in Japan in the second quarter of 2013 was due to fluctuating order patterns as a result of anticipated seasonality in the Japanese market. Management believes that BioGlue sales will be positively impactedaffected by increased shipments to Japan for the full year 2013 as compared to 2012, although this increase will be less than the increase experienced in 2012 over 2011. Management is currently seeking expanded indications for BioGlue in Japan and regulatory approval for BioGlue in China and, if successful, believes this will provide additional international growth opportunities for BioGlue in future years.

Management believes that the decrease in BioGlue shipments in its domestic markets for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is a result of various factors, including: continued economic pressures on hospitals and the resulting attempts by hospitals to control costs by reducing spending on consumable items such as BioGlue, the efforts of some large competitors in imposing and enforcing contract purchasing requirements for competing non-CryoLife products, and the U.S. market introduction of sealant products with approved indications for use in clinical applications in which BioGlue has been used off-label previously. However, the Company has seen the effect of these factors on its domestic BioGlue shipments slow in recent quarters. In the third quarter of 2013 domestic shipments showed a 2% increase in the volume of milliliters sold over the same quarter in 2012. Management believes that BioGlue sales volume in domestic markets could continue to be affected by the factors discussed above, which may cause a decrease in BioGlue sales volume in future quarters.

Domestic revenues accounted for 59%58% and 55%56% of total BioGlue revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, and 58% and 59%60% of total BioGlue revenues for both the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively.2012. BioFoam sales accounted for less than 1% of surgical sealant sales for each of the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and 2012. BioFoam is currently approved for sale in certain international markets.

BioGlue is a mature product in the U.S. and Europe that has experienced competitive pressures. Management believes that BioGlue sales volume in domestic markets will continue to be impacted by the factors discussed above, which may likely cause a continued decrease in BioGlue sales volume. Economic conditions in Europe could negatively impact sales in future periods. Management is currently seeking expanded indications for BioGlue in Japan and regulatory approval for BioGlue in China and, if successful, believes this will provide additional international growth opportunities for BioGlue.

PerClot

Revenues from the sale of PerClot increased 36%20% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a 44%29% increase in the volume of grams sold, which increased revenues by 37%26% and the favorable effect of foreign currency exchange, which increased revenues 2%, partially offset by a decrease in average selling prices, which decreased revenues 8%.

Revenues from the sale of PerClot increased 35%30% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a 40%36% increase in the volume of grams sold, which increased revenues by 35%32% and the favorable effect of foreign currency exchange, which increased revenues 1%, partially offset by a decrease in average selling prices, which decreased revenues 3%.

Revenues during these three and sixnine month periods were for sales in certain international markets, as PerClot is not yet approved for domestic distribution or widespread international distribution. This increase wasThese increases were primarily due to increased sales intoin the Company’s markets in Europe, partially due to growth in both new geographies and new surgical indications.

In June 2013 CryoLife received conditional approval of its IDEinvestigational device exemption (“IDE”) for PerClot from the FDA. IDE approval would allow the Company to begin clinical trials for the purpose of obtaining PMA to distribute PerClot in the U.S. As part of the conditional approval for the PerClot IDE, the Company must make certain revisions to the investigational study protocol, clinical product labeling, and Patient Informed Consent forms. The Company anticipates refilingrefiled the IDE submission in the third quarter ofon September 27, 2013.

Management believes that PerClot revenues will not be able to sell PerClotflat or show a slight decrease in the U.S. unless and until FDA approval is granted.

Managementfourth quarter of 2013 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 as the Company’s revenues in the fourth quarter of 2012 were favorably affected by a large stocking order from an international distributor. However, management believes that PerClot revenues will increase for the remainderfull year of 2013 as compared to the corresponding priorfull year periods. However, continuedof 2012. Continued weak economic growth conditions and their constraining effect on hospital budgets are expected to drive continued pricing pressures, especially due to the many hemostatic agents currently competing for market share in Europe.

Revascularization Technologies

Revenues from revascularization technologies include revenues related primarily to the sale of handpieces and, in certain periods, revenues from the sale of laser consoles. Revenues from revascularization technologies increased 19%14% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. Revenues from the sale of laser consoles were $83,000$379,000 and $144,000zero for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Revenues from the sale of handpieces decreased 2% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to an 11% decrease in unit shipments of handpieces, which decreased revenues by 10%, partially offset by an increase in average sales prices, which increased revenues by 8%.

Revenues from revascularization technologies increased 12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to nine months ended September 30, 2012. Revenues from the sale of laser consoles were $462,000 and $279,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Revenues from the sale of handpieces increased 31%13% for the threenine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the threenine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a 24%5% increase in unit shipments of handpieces, which increased revenues by 25%, and an increase in average sales prices, which increased revenues by 6%.

Revenues from revascularization technologies increased 11% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2012. Revenues from the sale of laser consoles were $83,000 and $279,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Revenues from the sale of handpieces increased 22% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to a 14% increase in unit shipments of handpieces, which increased revenues by 14%5%, and an increase in average sales prices, which increased revenues by 8%.

In June 2013 the FDA approved the Company’s new handpiece design, and the Company made the decision to exclusively distribute the new handpiece beginning late in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in handpiece volume for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to delays in receiving sufficient inventory from the Company’s third party supplier to meet demand for the new design. The Company has received additional shipments of inventory subsequent to the end of the third quarter and does not anticipate that availability of inventory will affect handpiece sales in the fourth quarter of 2013. The increase in handpiece revenuesvolume for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to the Company’s strategy to focus on increasing procedure volume.

Revascularization technologies revenues for the 2013 and 2012 periods discussed above consisted primarily of handpiece sales. The amount of revenues from console sales can vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter due to the long lead time required to generate sales of capital equipment. Revenues from laser consoles have been negatively impactedaffected by the current economic environment, which makes hospitals reluctant to invest in large capital purchases.

HeRO Graft

HeRO Graft revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 decreased 1% when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. Revenues from HeRO Grafts for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 increased significantly over the corresponding periodsperiod in 2012 as HeRO Grafts were not marketed by the Company for the full prior year periods.period. The Company began marketing HeRO Grafts following its acquisition of Hemosphere in May 2012. HeRO Graft revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased 1% when compared to the combined pre- and post-acquisition revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Revenues from HeRO Grafts include revenues related to the sale of vascular grafts, venous outflow components, and accessories, which are generally sold together as a kit. HeRO Grafts are primarily distributed in domestic markets.markets as a solution for end-stage renal disease in certain hemodialysis patients.

HeRO Graft revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased 14% when compared to the combined pre- and post-acquisition revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012. HeRO Graft revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased 2% when compared to the combined pre- and post-acquisition revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in HeRO Graft revenues compared to the combined pre- and post-acquisition prior year revenues was primarily due to an increase in the number of trained implanting doctors, primarily in areas of the U.S. where the HeRO Graft was not actively marketed prior to the Company’s acquisition.

21


As the HeRO Graft implant is currently performed by a relatively small number of surgeons, HeRO Graft revenues are subject to more variability quarter-to-quarter due to the timing of surgical cases. As the population of implanting doctors increases, the Company expects this variability in revenues will decrease.

Preservation Services

Revenues from preservation services decreasedincreased 6% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. Revenues from preservation services decreased 3% for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as comparedwere comparable to revenues for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. These decreases wereThe increase in revenues for the three month period was primarily due to a decreasean increase in shipments of cardiac tissuesvascular tissue service revenues during the current year periods. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was alsoperiod, and, to a lesser extent, due to a decreasean increase in shipments of vascular tissues.cardiac tissue service revenues. A detailed discussion of the changes in cardiac and vascular preservation services revenues is presented below.

Preservation services revenues, particularly revenues for certain high demand tissues, can vary from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year due to a variety of factors including: quantity and type of incoming tissues, yields of tissue through the preservation process, timing of receipt of donor information, timing of the release of tissues to an implantable status, demand for certain tissue types due to the number and type of procedures being performed, and pressures from competing products or services. The

20


Company currently believes that preservation services revenues for the fourth quarter and full year of 2013 will be comparable to revenues for thefourth quarter and full year of 2012; however, if CryoLife is unable to resolve the issues identified by the HTA, preservation services revenues could decrease slightly for the remainderfourth quarter and full year of 2013 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2012. As onlyOnly 4% of the Company’s preservation services revenues in 2012 were from tissues shipped into Europe, and due to the low fees and high costs of distributing tissues into Europe, CryoLife does not believe that the HTA suspension will have a material, adverse impacteffect on the Company’s financial condition, profitability, or cash flows. See further discussion of any specific items affecting cardiac and vascular preservation services revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 below.

Cardiac Preservation Services

Revenues from cardiac preservation services, consisting of revenues from the distribution of heart valves and cardiac patch tissues, decreased 7%increased 4% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to an increase in average service fees, which increased revenues by 4%.

Revenues from cardiac preservation services decreased 3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to a 12%7% decrease in unit shipments of cardiac tissues, which decreased revenues by 9%6%, partially offset by an increase in average service fees, which increased revenues by 2%3%.

Revenues from cardiac preservation services decreased 7% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily due to an 11% decrease in unit shipments of cardiac tissues, which decreased revenues 9%, partially offset by anThe increase in average service fees which increased revenues by 2%.for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to list fee increases in domestic markets in November 2012 and July 2013, and due to the routine negotiation of pricing contracts with certain customers.

The decrease in revenues from volume for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in volume of cardiac valve shipments. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 these decreases were partially offset by an increase in the volume of lower fee cardiac patch tissues. For both periods, the Company believes that the decrease in unit shipments, of cardiac valves was primarily due to a decrease in cardiac valve shipments into Europelargely as a result of the HTA’s letter suspending CryoLife’s license to distribute tissue in Europe and the timing of tissue releases for shipments to domestic markets as compared to the prior year periods, which can vary as discussed above. The Company believes thatabove, and a decrease in shipments into Europe in the increasesecond quarter of 2013 as a result of the HTA’s letter suspending CryoLife’s license to distribute tissue in unitEurope.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013 the Company’s revenues from shipments of cardiac patchestissues into Europe under the special access variance allowed by the HTA were $501,000 as compared to $456,000 in the corresponding period in 2012. The Company is not certain if this volume will continue throughout the fourth quarter of 2013, as the variance could be revoked by the HTA at any time. The Company expects that cardiac preservation services revenues for the six months ended June 30,full year of 2013 waswill be negatively affected by the HTA’s letter suspending CryoLife’s license to distribute tissue in Europe, primarily due to timing of tissue releasesreduced shipments in the firstsecond quarter of 2013. 2013, as discussed above.

The Company’s cardiac valves are primarily used in cardiac replacement and reconstruction surgeries, including the Ross procedure, for patients with endocarditis or congenital heart defects.

Revenues from SynerGraft processed tissues, including the CryoValve SGPV and CryoPatch SG, accounted for 52% and 51% of total cardiac preservation services revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, and 50%49% and 43%45% of total cardiac preservation services revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively. Domestic revenues accounted for 97%91% and 94%93% of total cardiac preservation services revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, and 92%91% and 90% of total cardiac preservation services revenues for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively.

Cardiac preservation services revenues for the remainder of 2013, will likely be negatively impacted by the HTA’s letter suspending CryoLife’s license to distribute tissue in Europe, as discussed above.

Vascular Preservation Services

Revenues from vascular preservation services decreased 5%increased 8% for the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. This decreaseincrease was primarily due to an increase in average service fees, which increased revenues by 12%, partially offset by a 9%6% decrease in unit shipments of vascular tissues, which decreased revenues by 7%, partially offset by4%.

Revenues from vascular preservation services for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased 3% as compared to revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This increase was primarily due to an increase in average service fees, which increased revenues by 2%.

Revenues from vascular preservation services for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were comparable to revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012. A 4%6%, partially offset by a 5% decrease in unit shipments of vascular tissues, which decreased revenues by 2%, which was offset by an3%.

The increase in average service fees which increased revenues by 2%.for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to list fee increases in domestic markets in November 2012 and July 2013, fee differences due to physical characteristics of vascular tissues, and the routine negotiation of pricing contracts with certain customers.

The decrease in vascular volume for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was primarily due to decreases in shipments of saphenous veins and, to a lesser extent, femoral veins. The Company believes that the decrease in unit shipments of veins was primarily due to the timing of tissue releases for shipments to domestic markets as compared to the prior year periods, which can vary as discussed above, and to a lesser extent due to a decrease in vein shipments into Europe as a result of the HTA’s letter suspending CryoLife’s license to distribute tissue in Europe. above.

The majority of the Company’s vascular preservation services revenues are related to shipments of saphenous veins, which are mainly used in peripheral vascular reconstruction surgeries to avoid limb amputations. These tissues are primarily distributed in domestic markets.

The increase in average service fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was due in part to a list fee increase for certain vascular tissues in 2013 and fee differences due to physical characteristics of vascular tissues, and due to the routine negotiation of pricing contracts with certain customers.

Legal fees related to lawsuits, primarily the Medafor and CardioFocus lawsuits, were $2.1 million and $3.6$3.7 million for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively, and reductions to legal fees for insurance reimbursements to be received for certain litigation expenses were $3.1 million and $3.4 million for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively.2012.

The Company expects that its general, administrative, and marketing expenses will increase for the full year 2013 as compared to 2012 primarily due to increased personnel, selling costs, and costs related to the transfer of HeRO Graft manufacturing operations, due to its acquisition of Hemosphere in May 2012, and due to the 2.3% excise tax on the sale of medical devices in the U.S. that went into effect on January 1, 2013 as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act passed in 2010. The Company expects that costs related to the transfer of HeRO Graft manufacturing operations will continue in the third quarter of 2013 and that significant costs will not continue into the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company believes that its SynerGraft processed tissues and the majority of its medical devices are subject to the medical device excise tax and that its traditionally processed tissues are not subject to the tax. The transfer of HeRO Graft manufacturing operations was completed in the third quarter of 2013, and, therefore, the Company does not expect to incur transfer related costs in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Income before income taxes decreased 51%increased 77% and 20%6% for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively. The decreaseincrease in income before income taxes for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was primarily due to an increase in general, administrative, and marketing expenses,product revenues, which increased margins, partially offset by an increase in product revenues, which increased margins,operating expenses, as discussed above.

The Company’s effective income tax rate was approximately 35%32% and 31% for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to 41% and 40% for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, respectively. The Company’s income tax rate for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was favorably impactedaffected by the full year 2012 research and development tax credit, which was enacted in January 2013 and, therefore, reduced the Company’s tax expense during the first quarter of 2013. The Company’s income tax rate in 2012 was negatively impactedaffected by the absenceunfavorable tax treatment of acertain acquisition related expenses due to the acquisition of Hemosphere and by the research and development tax credit, which was not enacted for the 2012 tax year during 2012.

Net income and diluted income per common share decreasedincreased for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012, primarily due to the decreaseincrease in income before income taxes, as discussed above.

The Company anticipates that net income and diluted income per common share will increase significantly in the fourth quarter and full year of 2013 over the corresponding prior year periods due to the expected gain of approximately $12.7 million from the sale of the Company’s investment in Medafor common stock due to C.R. Bard, Inc.’s acquisition of Medafor on October 1, 2013.

Diluted income per common share could be unfavorably impactedaffected in future periods by the issuance of additional shares of common stock and favorably impactedaffected by the Company’s repurchase of its common stock. Stock repurchases are impactedinfluenced by many factors, including: stock price, available funds, and competing demands for such funds, and as a result, may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

Seasonality

The Company believes the demand for BioGlue is seasonal, with a decline in demand generally occurring in the third quarter followed by stronger demand in the fourth quarter. Management believes that this trend for BioGlue may be due to the summer holiday season in Europe and in the U.S. The Company’s market for BioGlue in Japan is still in a growth phase, however, the Company believes that demand for BioGlue in Japan may continue to be lowest in the second quarter of each year due to distributor ordering patterns driven by the slower summer holiday season in Japan.

The Company is uncertain whether the demand for PerClot will be seasonal, as PerClot is a new product and the nature of any seasonal trends in PerClot sales may be obscured.

The Company is uncertain whether the demand for revascularization technologies will be seasonal, as the Company only recently acquired this product line in May 2011, and the historical data does not indicate a significant trend.

The Company is uncertain whether the demand for HeRO Grafts will be seasonal, as the Company only recently acquired this product line in May 2012, and the historical data does not indicate a significant trend.

The Company’s demand for its cardiac preservation services has traditionally been seasonal, with peak demand generally occurring in the third quarter. Management believes this trend for cardiac preservation services is primarily due to the high number of surgeries scheduled during the summer months for school-aged patients. Based on experience in recent years, management believes that this trend is lessening as the Company is distributing a higher percentage of its tissues to adult populations.

The Company believes the demand for its vascular preservation services is seasonal, with lowest demand generally occurring in the fourth quarter. Management believes this trend for vascular preservation services is primarily due to fewer vascular surgeries being scheduled during the winter holiday months.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Working Capital

At JuneSeptember 30, 2013 net working capital (current assets of $77.9$84.9 million less current liabilities of $18.8$20.2 million) was $59.1$64.7 million, with a current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) of 4 to 1, compared to net working capital of $56.1 million and a current ratio of 4 to 1 at December 31, 2012.

Overall Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s largest cash requirement for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 was cash for general working capital needs, as the Company’s accounts receivable balance increased significantly and its accrual and payable balances decreased significantly from December 31, 2012. The accounts receivable increase was due to the Company’s recent sales, which have not yet been converted to cash, along with the fact that accounts receivable as of December 31, 2012 was lower than normal due to timing of payments. The accrual and payable decrease was due to a large number of scheduled annual payments which were made in the first quarter that are not normally paid in the rest of the year. In addition, the Company’s other cash requirements included capital expenditures, repurchases of the Company’s common stock, and cash dividend payments. The Company funded its cash requirements through its existing cash reserves and its operating activities, which generated cash during the period.

CryoLife’s credit agreement with GEGeneral Electric Capital Corporation (the “GE Credit Agreement”) provides revolving credit for working capital, acquisitions, and other corporate purposes. The borrowing capacity under the GE Credit Agreement is $20.0 million (including a letter of credit subfacility), and the GE Credit Agreement expires October 28, 2014. The borrowing capacity may be reduced or increased from time to time pursuant to the terms of the GE Credit Agreement. As required under the terms of the GE Credit Agreement, the Company is maintaining cash and cash equivalents of at least $5.0 million in accounts in which GEGeneral Electric Capital Corporation has a first priority perfected lien. As a result, these funds will not be available to meet the Company’s liquidity needs during the term of the GE Credit Agreement and, as such, have been recorded as restricted cash and securities on the Company’s Summary Consolidated Balance Sheets. Also, the GE Credit Agreement requires that, after giving effect to a stock repurchase, the Company maintain liquidity, as defined in the agreement, of at least $20.0 million. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2013 the outstanding balance under the GE Credit Agreement was zero, and $20.0 million was available for borrowing.

In the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 the Company purchased approximately 229,000253,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.4$1.5 million. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2013 the Company had $13.6$13.5 million in remaining authorizations under common stock repurchase programs authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company is entitled to repurchase approximately $8.9$8.7 million in additional common stock without obtaining its lender’s consent. The purchase of shares may be made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, on such terms as management deems appropriate, and will be dependent upon various factors, including: price, regulatory requirements, and other market conditions.

26


As of JuneSeptember 30, 2013 approximately 12%5% of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held in foreign jurisdictions.

On October 1, 2013 C.R. Bard, Inc. completed its previously announced acquisition of the outstanding shares of Medafor common stock. The Company received an initial payment of approximately $15.4 million for its 2.4 million shares of Medafor common stock and will record an initial gain of approximately $12.7 million on the sale in the fourth quarter of 2013. The Company could receive additional payments totaling up to an additional $8.4 million upon the release of funds held in escrow and the satisfaction of certain contingent milestones, measurable through June 2015. The first of these additional payments, which the Company believes could be up to approximately $575,000, if released, would be received in late 2014, although this amount is subject to possible offsets. These payments will be recorded as an additional gain when and if received by the Company.

As discussed elsewhere in this 10-Q, in September 2012, CryoLife received a letter from Medafor stating that PerClot, when introduced in the U.S., will, when used in accordance with the method published in CryoLife’s literature and with the instructions for use, infringe Medafor’s U.S. patent. CryoLife does not believe that it will infringe Medafor’s patent. There have been no further communications between CryoLife and Medafor, or CryoLife and C.R. Bard related to the September letter. In the event that patent infringement litigation were to commence between CryoLife and Medafor in 2014, the costs of this litigation in 2014 would likely be material.

During 2012 the Company advanced a total of $2.0 million in debt financing to ValveXchange, Inc. (“ValveXchange”) through a revolving credit facility (the “Loan”). The Loan is secured by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of ValveXchange. ValveXchange is currently attempting to raise additional funds to support its operations until it can obtain a larger financing. On July 22, 2013 CryoLife notified ValveXchange that ValveXchange was in default of certain loan covenants, due to factors including ValveXchange’s failure to obtain CryoLife’s consent for a certain convertible note financing that ValveXchange obtained in July 2013. CryoLife and ValveXchange has 15 daysare continuing to cure the defaults and, if it failswork to do so, anresolve this event of default, will exist. CryoLife has been in negotiations with ValveXchange to obtain certain modifications to the Loan in lightwhich was ongoing as of this new convertible note.October 24, 2013. However, even if ValveXchange is able to secure some additional financing, if it is unable to secure sufficient financing to continueobtain additional amounts and cannot meet its business,obligations, CryoLife may need to foreclose on the related collateral to secure repayment of the Loan. Although CryoLife currently believes that the value of the collateral is adequate to repay the Loan, there is no guarantee that the security for the notes will be sufficient to repay the Loan. If CryoLife is forced to foreclose on the Loan, it may materially, adversely impactaffect the value of CryoLife’s preferred stock investment in ValveXchange. The Company may decide to allow ValveXchange to issue shares in payment of some or all of the outstanding debt balance in connection with a future round of financing.

The Company believes that its anticipated cash from operations and existing cash and cash equivalents will enable the Company to meet its current operational liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months. The Company’s future cash requirements are expected to include cash to fund the PerClot clinical trials, to repurchase the Company’s common stock, and to fund the cash dividend to common shareholders, and may also include cash to fund additional research and development expenditures, for revascularization technologies and the HeRO Graft, to fund business development activities, to purchase license agreements, for general working capital needs, for capital expenditures, and for other corporate purposes. These items may have a significant impacteffect on itsthe Company’s cash flows during the remainderfourth quarter of 2013.2013 and during 2014. The Company may seek additional borrowing capacity or financing pursuant to its shelf registration statement, for general corporate purposes, or to fund other future cash requirements. If the

25


Company undertakes further significant business development activity in 2013 or 2014, it will likelymay need to finance such activities by drawing down monies under the GE Credit Agreement, obtaining additional debt financing, or using its shelf registration statement to sell equities.

The Company acquired net operating loss carryforwards from its acquisitions of Hemosphere and Cardiogenesis that the Company believes will reduce required cash payments for federal income taxes by approximately $1.5 million for the 2013 tax year.

Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.0$11.3 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to $4.9$11.0 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. The decrease in cash provided in the current year period was primarily due to the decrease in net income and an increase in working capital needs compared to the prior year period.

The Company uses the indirect method to prepare its cash flow statement and, accordingly, the operating cash flows are based on the Company’s net income, which is then adjusted to remove non-cash items and for changes in operating assets and liabilities from the prior year end. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 these non-cash items included a favorable $2.9$4.4 million in depreciation and amortization expenses, $1.6$2.4 million in non-cash compensation, and $474,000$960,000 in deferred income taxes.

The Company’s working capital needs, or changes in operating assets and liabilities, also affected cash from operations. For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 these changes included unfavorable adjustments of $2.3$4.1 million due to the timing differences between the recording of receivables and the receipt of cash, and $2.1 million due to the timing differences between the recording of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities and the actual payment of cash.

27


Net Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $2.4$3.4 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to $19.3$21.0 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. The current year cash used was primarily due to $2.3$3.2 million in capital expenditures. The prior year cash used was primarily due to the acquisition of Hemosphere.

Net Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $3.0$3.3 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 as compared to $3.3$3.9 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. The current year cash used was primarily due to $1.4$2.2 million in cash dividends paid and $1.5 million in purchases of treasury stock related to the Company’s publicly announced stock repurchase plan and $1.4 million in cash dividends paid.plan.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company’s operating lease obligations result from the lease of land and buildings that comprise the Company’s corporate headquarters and manufacturing facilities, leases related to additional office and warehouse space, leases on Company vehicles, and leases on a variety of office equipment.

The Company’s purchase commitments include minimum purchase requirements for PerClot related to the Company’s transaction with SMI. These minimum purchases are included through 2014,2015, as the Company expects to receive FDA approval for PerClot in late 2015. Upon FDA approval, the Company may terminate its minimum purchase requirements, per the terms of the

26


agreements between the parties, which the Company expects to do. However, if the Company does not terminate this provision, it will have minimum purchase obligations of $1.75 million per year through the end of the contract term in 2025. The Company’s purchase commitments also include obligations from agreements with suppliers.

The contingent payment obligations include obligations related to the Company’s acquisition of Hemosphere and transaction with SMI. The contingent payment obligation for Hemosphere represents the payments that the Company will make if certain revenue milestones are achieved. The schedule includes one contingent milestone payment for $2.5 million that the Company believes it is likely to pay in 2015, although the timing of this payment may change. The schedule excludes one Hemosphere contingent milestone payment of up to $2.0 million, as the Company cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of when this future payment may be made, if at all. The contingent payment obligation for PerClot represents the payments that the Company will make if certain FDA regulatory approvals and other commercial milestones are achieved. The schedule excludes one PerClot contingent milestone payment of $500,000, as the Company cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of timing of this future payment.

The Company’s compensation payment obligations represent estimated payments for post-employment benefits for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The timing of the CEO’s post-employment benefits is based on the December 2015 expiration date of the CEO’s employment agreement; however, payment of this benefit may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain events, including the voluntary retirement of the CEO or termination of the CEO’s employment in conjunction with certain change in control events.

The Company’s research obligations represent commitments for ongoing studies and payments to support research and development activities.

28


The schedule of contractual obligations above excludes (i) obligations for estimated liability claims unless they are due as a result of a settlement agreement or other contractual obligation and (ii) any estimated liability for uncertain tax positions and interest and penalties, currently estimated to be $2.6$2.7 million, because the Company cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the amount and period of related future payments as no specific assessments have been made for specific litigation or by any taxing authorities.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 were $2.3$3.2 million compared to $1.5$2.2 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2012. Capital expenditures in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 were primarily related to the routine purchases of manufacturing and tissue processing equipment, including support for the Company’s HeRO Graft and PerClot product lines; revascularization technologies lasers; computer and office equipment; computer software; and leasehold improvements needed to support the Company’s business.

Risks and Uncertainties

Along with the risks identified in Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q, the risks and uncertainties which might impactaffect the forward-looking statements and the Company, its ability to continue as a going concern, and the trading value of its common stock include concerns that:

 

We are significantly dependent on our revenues from BioGlue and are subject to a variety of risks affecting this product;

 

Our BioGlue patent has expired in the U.S. and most of the rest of the world. Competitors may utilize the inventions disclosed in the expired patents in competing products, although the competing product will have to be approved by the appropriate regulatory authority;

 

Competitors have obtained FDA approval for indications in which BioGlue has been used off-label and for which we cannot market BioGlue, which has reduced, and could continue to reduce, the addressable procedures for BioGlue;

 

Our products and tissues are subject to many significant risks, including being recalled or placed on hold by us, the FDA, or other regulatory bodies and being subjected to adverse publicity, which could lead to decreased use, additional regulatory scrutiny, or product liability lawsuits;

 

Regulatory agencies could require us to change or modify our processes, procedures, and manufacturing operations, and such agencies could reclassify or reevaluate our clearances and approvals to sell our medical devices and tissue services;

 

Our tissues, which are not sterile when processed, and our medical devices allegedly have caused, and may in the future cause, injury to patients, which has exposed, and could in the future expose, us to tissue processing and product liability claims and additional regulatory scrutiny and inspections as a result;

 

Upon its inspection, the FDA may determine that our corrective actions have not adequately addressed the issues raised in the Warning Letter. If we failhave failed to respond to the notice of violations in the Warning Letter to the FDA’s satisfaction, then we may be subject to additional regulatory action by the FDA, including recalls, injunctions, and/or civil money penalties, and the demand for our products and services could be negatively impacted by adverse publicity with respect to the Warning Letter.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s interest income and interest expense are sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. In this regard, changes in U.S. interest rates affect the interest earned on the Company’s cash and cash equivalents of $11.7$17.7 million and restricted cash of $5.0 million and interest paid on the Company’s variable rate line of credit as of JuneSeptember 30, 2013. A 10% adverse change in interest rates as compared to the rates experienced by the Company in the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013, affecting the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and securities, and line of credit would not have a material impacteffect on the Company’s financial position, profitability, or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The Company has balances, such as cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accruals that are denominated in foreign currencies. These foreign currency denominated balances are sensitive to changes in exchange rates. In this regard, changes in exchange rates could cause a change in the U.S. Dollar equivalent of cash or funds that the Company will receive in payment for assets or that the Company would have to pay to settle liabilities. As a result, the Company could be required to record these changes as gains or losses on foreign currency translation.

The Company has revenues and expenses that are denominated in foreign currencies. Specifically, a significant portion of the Company’s international BioGlue revenues are denominated in British Pounds and Euros, and a portion of the Company’s general, administrative, and marketing expenses are denominated in British Pounds and Euros. These foreign currency transactions are sensitive to changes in exchange rates. In this regard, changes in exchange rates could cause a change in the U.S. Dollar equivalent of net income from transactions conducted in other currencies. As a result, the Company could recognize a reduction in revenues or an increase in expenses related to a change in exchange rates.

An additional 10% adverse change in exchange rates from the exchange rates in effect on JuneSeptember 30, 2013 affecting the Company’s balances denominated in foreign currencies would not have had a material impacteffect on the Company’s financial position or cash flows. An additional 10% adverse change in exchange rates from the weighted-average exchange rates experienced by the Company for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2013 affecting the Company’s revenue and expense transactions denominated in foreign currencies, would not have had a material impacteffect on the Company’s financial position, profitability, or cash flows.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). These Disclosure Controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s President and CEO and the Company’s Executive Vice President of Finance, Chief Operating Officer, and CFO, does not expect that its Disclosure Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments indecision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. The Company’s Disclosure Controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Based upon the most recent Disclosure Controls evaluation conducted by management with the participation of the CEO and CFO, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2013 the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s Disclosure Controls were effective at the reasonable assurance level to satisfy their objectives and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

None.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

There have been no material changesThe risk relating to the Risk Factors as previously disclosedour investment in Medafor described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” under the heading “Our Investment In Medafor Has Been Impaired, And Our Investment Could Be Further Impaired By Risks Associated With Medafor’s Business Or By Medafor’s Actions, Which Could Have A Material, Adverse Impact On Our Financial Condition And Profitability,” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.2012 is no longer applicable because of the acquisition of Medafor by C.R. Bard, Inc. and the related payments made to us in the fourth quarter of 2013 for our Medafor stock as described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Although We Have Received $15.4 Million For C.R. Bard’s Acquisition Of Medafor And May Receive Additional Cash Of Up To $8.4 Million In The Future Related To Medafor’s Earnout And Release Of Escrow Funds, It Is Possible We May Not Receive Any Additional Monies Or The Amount Of The Additional Monies Received Could Be Significantly Less Than $8.4 Million.

As discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, we received approximately $15.4 million for our shares of Medafor common stock, due to C.R. Bard’s acquisition of Medafor. We could receive up to an estimated additional $8.4 million from this transaction in the future. This number is based on information provided by Medafor and C.R. Bard as part of the transaction. Based on the information that was provided to all shareholders of Medafor by Medafor and C.R Bard, it appears that we owned approximately 9.2% of Medafor’s stock at the closing of their transaction with C.R. Bard. Therefore, it appears that we would be entitled to approximately 9.2% of each of the following amounts:

Potential Escrow Amounts

In the fourth quarter of 2014, either: (a) $6.25 million of the effective $18.5 million escrow will be released, or (b) if the remaining escrow amount is less than $6.25 million, the remaining escrow amount less any pending indemnification claims owed by Medafor to C.R. Bard;

In the second quarter of 2015, the remaining escrow not previously paid will be released, except for (a) amounts held for pending indemnification claims owed by Medafor to C.R. Bard and (b) $2 million, adjusted for certain tax indemnification claims, if any, that have been made or similar amounts recovered; and

In the fourth quarter of 2017, the remaining amounts of the escrow, if any, plus all interest accumulated from the acquisition date will be released minus any indemnification claims owed by Medafor to C.R. Bard.

Potential Earnout Amounts

In either the second or third quarter of 2015, based on whether Medafor and C.R. Bard disagree regarding the calculations of the net sales of Medafor products from the period of July 1, 2014 until June 30, 2015 (“Net Sales”), a milestone payment of up to $80 million will occur, as follows

$20 million, if the Net Sales are between $60 million and $64,999,999;

$35 million, if the Net Sales are between $65 million and $69,999,999;

$55 million, if the Net Sales are between $70 million and $74,999,999; or

$80 million, if the Net Sales are equal to or greater than $75 million

However, 15% of any of these payments are subject to offset to pay any indemnification claims that might arise which are owed by Medafor to C.R. Bard

We do not have any control over or visibility regarding any claims that may have been or will be made against the escrow, whether these escrow amounts will be released, whether Medafor products will meet the sales requirements that would pay the

35


earn out amounts, or whether any setoffs will occur. Additionally, we may not be aware of any of these issues until we receive payments, if any, because of our lack of visibility. As a result, the amount of additional monies that could be paid to us may be significantly less than the $8.4 million that Medafor has indicated that we could potentially receive.
