Quarterly Report


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with both our interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our annual consolidated financial statements, notes thereto, and the MD&A contained in our fiscal year 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 22, 2009. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with the "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information" beginning on page 33. Our Business
Haemonetics is a blood management solutions company for our customers. Anchored by our reputable medical device systems, we also provide information technology platforms and value added services to provide customers with business solutions which support improved clinical outcomes for patients and efficiency in the blood supply chain.
Our Plasma and Blood Bank systems automate the collection and processing of donated blood, allowing users to collect only the blood component(s) they target
- plasma, platelets, or red blood cells - increasing donor and patient safety as well as collection efficiencies. Our Diagnostics systems measure a surgical patient's clotting ability thereby aiding surgeons in assessing the likelihood for patient blood loss. Our Surgical systems salvage and process surgical patient blood so the patient's own blood is recovered and can be transfused back to the patient. These systems include devices and single-use, proprietary disposable sets ("disposables") that operate only with our specialized devices. Our information technology platforms are used by blood and plasma collectors to improve the safety and efficiency of blood collection logistics by eliminating previously manual functions at not-for-profit blood banks and commercial plasma centers. Our business services products include consulting, Six Sigma, LEAN manufacturing and ImpactTM Opportunity Model offerings that support our customers' needs for regulatory compliance and operational efficiency in the blood supply chain. We either sell our devices to customers (resulting in equipment revenue) or place our devices with customers subject to certain conditions. When the device is placed and remains our property, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time as long as the customer meets certain conditions we have established, which among other things, generally include one or more of the following:
• Purchase and consumption of a minimum level of disposables products;

• Payment of monthly rental fees; and/or

• An asset utilization performance metric, such as performing a minimum level of procedures per month per device.

Our disposables revenue stream (including sales of disposables and fees for the use of our equipment) accounted for approximately 88% and 87% of our total revenues for both second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Net revenues increased 7.6% and 7.3% for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010 over the comparable periods of fiscal year 2009. The effects of foreign exchange accounted for an increase of 2.1% and 1.4% for the second quarter and six months, respectively. The remaining increase of 5.5% for the quarter and 5.9% for the six months is mainly due to increases in our plasma disposables revenue and software solutions revenue.
Gross profit increased 8.4% and 11.0% as compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2009. The favorable effects of foreign exchange accounted for an increase of 3.4% and 5.8% for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010, respectively. The remaining increase of 5.0% for the quarter and 5.2% for the six months was due primarily to increased sales and manufacturing efficiencies. This was partly offset by changes in product mix driven by higher sales of our lower margin plasma products.
Operating expenses increased 5.6% and 5.5% for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010 over the comparable periods of fiscal year 2009. The favorable effects of foreign exchange accounted for a decrease in operating expenses of 0.5% for the quarter and 1.7% for the six months, respectively. Without the effects of foreign exchange, operating expenses increased 6.1% in the second quarter and 7.2% in the first six months of fiscal year 2010. The higher operating expenses are primarily related to increased investment in research and development, the expenses from recent acquisitions, expenses associated with our ERP Phase II go-live, and higher expenses due to the introduction of blood management solutions. The noted increases in operating expenses were partly offset by a lack of restructuring costs in the first six months of fiscal year 2010 when compared to the first six months of fiscal year 2009.
Operating income increased 14.5% and 24.2% for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010 over the comparable periods of fiscal year 2009. The effects of foreign exchange accounted for an increase of 11.8% and 23.7% for the second quarter and six months, respectively. Without the effects of foreign exchange operating income increased 2.7% for the quarter and 0.5% for the six months as a result of noted changes in gross profit and operating expenses.

International Operations and the Impact of Foreign Exchange Our principal operations are in the U.S., Europe, Japan and other parts of Asia. Our products are marketed in more than 80 countries around the world via a direct sales force as well as independent distributors and agents. Our revenues generated outside the U.S. approximated 52% for both the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 and 54% for both the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2009. Revenues in Japan accounted for approximately 17.0% and 16.6% of total revenues for the second quarter of fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively and 16.4% and 15.9% of total revenues for the first six months of fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively. Revenues in Europe accounted for approximately 27.3% and 29.6% of total revenues for the second quarters of fiscal year 2010 and 2009 and 27.6% and 30.5% of total revenues for the first six months of fiscal year 2010 and 2009, respectively. International sales are primarily conducted in local currencies, primarily the Japanese Yen and the Euro. As discussed above, our results of operations are impacted by changes in the value of the Yen and the Euro relative to the U.S. dollar.
Please see section entitled "Foreign Exchange" in this discussion for a more complete explanation of how foreign currency affects our business and our strategy for managing this exposure.

Disposables
Disposables include the Plasma, Blood Bank, and Hospital product lines. Disposables revenue increased 8.4% and 8.3% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 over the comparable periods of fiscal year 2009. Foreign exchange resulted in a 1.8% and 1.2% increase for the quarter and six months. The remaining increase of 6.6% and 7.1% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 were driven by increases in the Plasma product line, as discussed below.
Plasma
Plasma disposables revenue increased 19.0% and 22.2% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009. Foreign exchange resulted in a 2.0% and 1.2% increase for the quarter and six months, respectively. For both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010 as compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009, higher collections in both the U.S. and Europe, share gains, and, to a lesser extent, pricing were the main reasons for the remaining increase.
As supply-demand balance has been achieved between source plasma collected and used in pharmaceutical production, we are seeing a moderation in collections. The fractionation companies will continue to balance collections to support the underlying growth in demand for plasma drugs which we believe to be in the 7% range. With contractual price increases, new products, and market share gains, we anticipate that plasma disposable revenue growth will moderate, but continue to outpace collection market growth in the near term. Blood Bank
Blood bank consists of platelet and red cell disposables.
Platelet disposables revenue increased 2.6% for the second quarter and decreased 0.6% for the first six months of fiscal year 2010 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009. Comparing the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 to that of 2009, foreign exchange accounted for an increase of 2.3% and 2.1%, respectively. For the quarter, the remaining increase of 0.3% was the result of growth in China and Taiwan offset by share loss in Japan. Without the effect of currency, revenues decreased 2.7% in the first six months. The decrease was driven by the first quarter challenges in South Korea associated with the significant devaluation of South Korea's currency, the Won, and by the reasons noted for the second quarter growth.
Red cell disposables decreased 2.3% and 1.4% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009. Comparing the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 to that of 2009, foreign exchange accounted for a decrease of 1.1% and 0.7%, respectively. The remaining decrease of 1.2% for the quarter and 0.7% for the six months was driven by lower demand for red cells, as a result of (i) fewer surgeries, thus a

reduced demand for blood and (ii) 5% more donors due to the entry of 16 year olds to the blood donor population, which combined resulted in a reliance on a higher percentage of whole blood collections. Hospital
Hospital consists of surgical, OrthoPAT, and diagnostics products. Revenues from our surgical disposables increased 4.0% and 2.4% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009. Surgical disposables revenue consists principally of the Cell Saver and cardioPAT products. Foreign exchange resulted in an increase in surgical disposables revenue of 1.9% for the quarter and 2.1% for the six months. Without the effect of currency, surgical disposables increased 2.1% and 0.3% for the second quarter and the first six months, respectively. The increase was primarily the result of increases in sales of cardioPAT products, as more hospitals adopt the cardioPAT products.
Revenues from our OrthoPAT disposables increased 3.4% and 0.4% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009. Foreign exchange had a minimal impact, a 0.5% increase, on OrthoPAT disposables revenue for the quarter and no impact on revenue for the first six months. The increase was primarily the result of market share gains.
Revenues from our diagnostics products decreased 10.1% and 5.9% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 compared to the same periods in fiscal year 2009. Diagnostics product revenue consists principally of the TEG products. Comparing the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 to that of 2009, foreign exchange accounted for an increase of 3.9% and 0.4%, respectively. Without the effect of currency, diagnostic product revenues decreased of 15.0% for the quarter and 6.3% for the six months. Diagnostics product revenue is unique, compared to revenue from other products, in that it includes TEG disposable and equipment sales. The revenue decline in the quarter and year-to-date are due to a decline in TEG equipment sales. The noted decrease was partly offset by an 11.1% and 10.0% increase in TEG disposables for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010. Software Solutions
Our software solutions revenues include revenue from software sales. Software solutions revenues increased 28.5% and 22.4% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 over the comparable period of fiscal year 2009. Foreign exchange resulted in a 1.4% and 1.1% increase for the quarter and six months. The remaining increase of 27.1% and 21.3% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 was driven by increased sales to commercial plasma customers and revenues associated with two recent acquisitions.
Equipment & Other
Our equipment & other revenues include revenue from equipment sales, repairs performed under preventive maintenance contracts or emergency service visits, spare part sales, and various service and training programs. Equipment & other revenues decreased 12.8% and 13.7% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 over the comparable period of fiscal year 2009. Foreign exchange resulted in a 7.8% and 4.7% increase for the quarter and six months. Without the effect of currency, the decrease of 20.6% and 18.4% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 is primarily the result of fewer equipment sales, particularly to distributor customers due to macro economic trends impacting health care funding.

manufacturing efficiencies, particularly for our plasma business. Product mix partly offset these improvements due to increased sales of our lower margin plasma products.

Research, Development and Engineering
Research, development and engineering expenses increased 24.1% and 19.8% for the second quarter and the first six months of fiscal year 2010 as compared to the same periods of fiscal year 2009. The increase is a result of increased spending in the whole blood and Arryx blood diagnostics technologies. Selling, General and Administrative
During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2010, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3.5% and 3.8%, respectively. Foreign exchange resulted in a 0.3% and 1.7% decrease in selling, general and administrative during the quarter. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, selling, general and administrative expense increased 3.8% and 5.5% for the second quarter and six months. The increase was due primarily to (i) expenses brought on from recent acquisitions that had not been reflected in the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, (ii) expenses associated with our ERP Phase II go-live, and (iii) general selling, marketing and handling costs necessary to support the increase in sales and the introduction of blood management solutions. The noted increases were partly offset by a lack of restructuring costs in the first six months of fiscal year 2010 when compared to the first six months of fiscal year 2009.

The main reasons for the decrease is the net of (i) the increase in interest expense due to the accounting relating to the contingent consideration on a recent acquisition and
(ii) the decrease in interest income due to significantly reduced investment yield.
