THERMADYNE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Thermadyne Holdings Corporation ("Thermadyne" or the "Company"), a
Delaware corporation, is a global manufacturer of cutting and welding
products and accessories.
UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of Thermadyne have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.
BANKRUPTCY FILING
On November 19, 2001, the Company and substantially all of its domestic
subsidiaries, including Thermadyne LLC and Thermadyne Capital
(collectively, the "Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions for relief
under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Missouri (the
"Court".) The filing resulted from insufficient liquidity, and was
determined to be the most efficient and favorable alternative to
restructure the Company's balance sheet. Since 1998, the Company's
operating results have been negatively impacted by a weak industrial
economy in the U.S. as well as difficult economic conditions in most of
its foreign markets. The deterioration of operating results and
liquidity made it increasingly difficult for the Company to meet all of
its debt service obligations. Prior to filing Chapter 11, the Company
failed to make the semi-annual interest payments on the 10.75%
subordinated notes, due November 1, 2003 (the "Subordinated Notes"),
which were due on May 1 and November 1, 2001, and totaled approximately
$4.0 million. In addition, the Company failed to make an interest
payment in the amount of $10.2 million related to the 9.875% senior
subordinated notes, due June 1, 2008 (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"),
which was due on June 1, 2001. The Bankruptcy Code generally prohibits
the Company from making payments on unsecured, pre-petition debt,
including the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Subordinated Notes,
except pursuant to a confirmed plan of reorganization. The Company is
in possession of its properties and assets and continues to manage the
business as a debtor-in-possession subject to the supervision of the
Court.
On January 8, 2002, the Court entered the final order approving a new
$60 million debtor-in-possession credit facility among Thermadyne LLC,
as borrower, the Company and certain U.S. subsidiaries as guarantors,
and a syndicate of lenders with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. as agent (the
6

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
"DIP Facility".) Prior to the final order, on November 21, 2001, the
Court entered an interim order authorizing the Debtors to use up to $25
million of the DIP Facility for loans and letters of credit. The DIP
Facility expires on the earlier of the consummation of a plan of
reorganization or November 21, 2002. On November 1, 2002, the Debtors
filed a motion with the Court to amend the DIP Facility to extend its
expiration date to May 21, 2003. In addition, the motion to amend the
DIP Facility would lower the total capacity from $60 million to $50
million. All other terms of the DIP Facility would remain substantially
the same. On November 15, 2002, the Court will hear this motion for
extension. The Company also expects its lenders to approve the
extension of the DIP Facility prior to November 21, 2002. The DIP
Facility is secured by substantially all the assets of the Debtors,
including a pledge of the capital stock of substantially all their
subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations with respect to foreign
subsidiaries. Actual borrowing availability is subject to a borrowing
base calculation. The amount available to the Company under the DIP
Facility is equal to the sum of approximately 85% of eligible accounts
receivable, 50% of eligible inventory and 72% of eligible fixed assets.
As of September 30, 2002, the Company's eligible accounts receivable,
inventories and fixed assets supported access to the full amount of the
DIP Facility less outstanding borrowings and letters of credit. As of
September 30, 2002, the Company had borrowed $10.2 million and issued
letters of credit of $8.4 million under the DIP Facility. The DIP
Facility contains financial covenants, including minimum levels of
EBITDA (defined as net income or loss plus depreciation, amortization
of goodwill, amortization of intangibles, net periodic postretirement
benefits expense, interest expense, income taxes, amortization of
deferred financing costs, any net loss realized in connection with the
sale of any asset, any extraordinary loss or the non-cash portion of
non-recurring expenses, and reorganization costs; minus any
extraordinary gain), and other customary provisions.
As of December 1, 2001, the Company discontinued accruing interest on
the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated Notes, the 12.5%
debentures, due June 1, 2008 (the "Debentures"), and the 15% junior
subordinated notes, due December 15, 2009 (the "Junior Notes"), and
ceased accruing dividends on its redeemable preferred stock.
Contractual interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated
Notes, the Debentures and the Junior Notes for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002, was $5.1 million, $1.0 million, $4.8 million and
$1.4 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30,
2002, was $15.3 million, $3.0 million, $14.0 million and $3.9 million,
respectively. No interest was recorded for the Senior Subordinated
Notes, the Subordinated Notes, the Debentures or the Junior Notes
during the three or nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002.
Contractual dividends for the redeemable preferred stock were $2.7
million and $8.0 million for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2002, respectively, but no dividends were recorded during these
periods. As part of the Court order approving the DIP Facility, the
Company was required to continue making periodic interest payments on
its old syndicated senior secured credit agreement (the "Old Credit
Agreement.") This order did not approve the payment of any principal
outstanding under the Old Credit Facility as of the petition date, or
the payment of any future mandatory amortization of the loans. In
total, contractual interest on the Company's obligations was $17.5
million and $53.1 million, for the three and nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2002, respectively, which was $12.3 million and $36.2
million in excess of reported interest, respectively.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, all actions to
collect upon any of the Debtors'
7
THERMADYNE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
liabilities as of the petition date or to enforce pre-petition date
contractual obligations were automatically stayed. Absent approval from
the Court, the Debtors are prohibited from paying pre-petition
obligations. However, the Court has approved payment of certain
pre-petition liabilities such as employee wages and benefits and
certain other pre-petition obligations. Additionally, the Court has
approved the retention of legal and financial professionals. Claims
were allowed to be filed against the Debtors through April 19, 2002. As
debtor-in-possession, the Company has the right, subject to court
approval and certain other conditions, to assume or reject any
pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases. Parties affected
by such rejections may file pre-petition claims with the Court in
accordance with bankruptcy procedures.
The Company is currently developing a plan of reorganization (the "Plan
of Reorganization") through, among other things, discussions with the
official creditors' committee appointed in the Chapter 11 proceedings
and the lenders. The objective of the Plan of Reorganization is to
restructure the Company's balance sheet to significantly strengthen the
Company's financial position.
Management expects that a Plan of Reorganization will be completed and
ready to file with the Court during the fourth calendar quarter of
2002. Although management expects to file the Plan of Reorganization,
there can be no assurance at this time that a Plan of Reorganization
will be proposed by the Company, approved or confirmed by the Court, or
that such plan will be consummated. On October 30, 2002, the Court
approved the Company's motion to extend the period during which the
Debtors may file a Plan of Reorganization through November 18, 2002. If
the exclusivity period were to expire or be terminated, other
interested parties, such as creditors of the Debtors, would have the
right to propose alternative plans of reorganization.
Absent a successful restructuring of the Company's balance sheet,
substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis. This basis contemplates the continuity of
operations, realization of assets, and discharge of liabilities in the
ordinary course of business. The statements also present the assets of
the Company at historical cost and the current intention that they will
be realized as a going concern and in the normal course of business. A
Plan of Reorganization could materially change the amounts currently
disclosed in the financial statements.
The Company's financial statements do not present the amount which may
ultimately be paid to settle liabilities and contingencies which may be
allowed in the Chapter 11 case. Under Chapter 11, the rights of, and
ultimate payment by the Company to, pre-petition creditors may be
substantially altered. This could result in claims being paid in the
Chapter 11 proceedings at less (and possibly substantially less) than
100% of their face value. At this time, because of material
uncertainties, pre-petition claims are carried at face value in the
accompanying financial statements, and are included in the line
"liabilities subject to compromise" on the consolidated balance sheets.
Additionally, the interests of existing preferred and common
shareholders could be substantially diluted or even eliminated.

THERMADYNE HOLDINGS CORPORATION

(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
LIABILITIES SUBJECT TO COMPROMISE
Under Chapter 11, certain claims against the debtor in existence prior
to the filing of the petition for relief under federal bankruptcy laws
are stayed while the debtor continues business operations as
debtor-in-possession. These claims are shown in the accompanying
balance sheets as "liabilities subject to compromise." Additional
claims (liabilities subject to compromise) may arise subsequent to the
filing date resulting from rejection of executory contracts, including
leases, and from the determination by the Court (or agreed to by
parties in interest) of allowed claims for contingencies and other
disputed amounts. Claims secured against the debtor's assets also are
stayed, although the holders of such claims have the right to move the
Court for relief from the stay. The principal categories of liabilities
subject to compromise consisted of the following:

million of expenses related to financing fees associated with the DIP
Facility, and $0.1 million of other reorganization costs. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2002, reorganization items include $6.9
million of professional fees and expenses, $1.4 million of expenses
related to financing fees associated with the DIP Facility, $0.4
million associated with a lease obligation that was rejected, $0.3
million related to payments under the key employee retention plan
approved by the Court, and $0.6 million of other reorganization costs.
Reorganization costs in 2001 consisted primarily of professional fees
and expenses.

decisions regarding allocation of resources being made on a combined
basis. The Company's reportable geographic regions are the United
States, Europe and Australia/Asia.
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based
principally on operating income net of any special charges or
significant one-time charges. The accounting policies of the reportable
segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant
accounting policies. Intersegment sales are based on market prices.
Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable

ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001, comprehensive
loss was $5,668 and $52,398, respectively.
5. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
The DIP Facility provides for total borrowings of $60 million, of which
up to $15 million may be used for letters of credit. Actual borrowing
availability is subject to a borrowing base calculation, which is equal
to the sum of approximately 85% of eligible accounts receivable, 50% of
eligible inventory and 72% of eligible fixed assets. As of September
30, 2002, the Company's eligible
12

(UNAUDITED)
accounts receivable, inventories and fixed assets supported access to
the full amount of the DIP Facility less outstanding borrowings and
letters of credit. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had borrowed
$10.2 million and issued letters of credit of $8.4 million under the
DIP Facility.
As of December 1, 2001, the Company discontinued accruing interest on
the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated Notes, the Debentures,
and the Junior Notes. Contractual interest on the Senior Subordinated
Notes, the Subordinated Notes, the Debentures and the Junior Notes for
the quarter ended September 30, 2002, was $5.1 million, $1.0 million,
$4.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively, and for the nine months
ended September 30, 2002, was $15.3 million, $3.0 million, $14.0
million and $3.9 million, respectively. No interest was recorded for
the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated Notes, the Debentures
or the Junior Notes during the three or nine-month periods ended
September 30, 2002. The Bankruptcy Code generally prohibits the Company
from making payments on unsecured, pre-petition debt, including the
Senior Subordinated Notes and the Subordinated Notes, except pursuant
to a confirmed Plan of Reorganization.
6. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
("SFAS 142".) SFAS 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. SFAS 142 requires these
assets be reviewed for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets
with finite lives will continue to be amortized over their estimated
useful lives. In addition, SFAS 142 requires goodwill included in the
carrying value of equity method investments no longer be amortized.
The Company ceased amortization on January 1, 2002 of its goodwill,
which had a net balance of approximately $11,355 at January 1, 2002.
During the third quarter of 2001 the Company recorded $114 of goodwill
amortization. Excluding this expense the Company's net loss, net loss
applicable to common shares, basic and diluted net loss per share, and
basic and diluted net loss applicable to common shares would have been
$19,220, $21,638, $5.39 and $6.06, respectively. During the first nine
months of 2001 the Company recorded $249 of goodwill amortization.
Excluding this expense the Company's net loss, net loss applicable to
common shares, basic and diluted net loss per share, and basic and
diluted net loss applicable to common shares would have been $47,291,
$54,321, $13.17 and $15.13, respectively.
The Company capitalizes loan origination fees and other costs incurred
arranging long-term financing as deferred financing costs. The costs
are amortized over the respective lives of the obligations using the
effective interest method. Deferred financing costs totaled $25,843 at
September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001. Accumulated amortization
totaled $14,503 and $12,018 at September 30, 2002 and December 31,
2001, respectively. Amortization expense amounted to $829 for the
three-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
For the first nine months of 2002 and 2001, amortization expense was
$2,487 and $2,486, respectively. Amortization expense for fiscal 2002
to 2006 is expected to be as follows: $3,316, $3,316, $3,316, $3,316,
and $561.
13
THERMADYNE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)
The Company has other identifiable intangible assets such as patented
technology, non-compete agreements and trademarks. These intangibles
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the various estimated
useful lives, which generally range from three to 25 years. The total
cost of these intangible assets was $11,107 and $11,420 at September
30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. Accumulated amortization
totaled $9,470 and $9,353 at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001,
respectively. Amortization expense amounted to $193 and $456 for the
three-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively,
and was $767 and $1,362 for the nine months ended September, 30, 2002
and 2001, respectively. Amortization expense is expected to be
approximately $1,000 in 2002 and 2003, and approximately $425 in 2004.
The adoption of SFAS 142 did not have a significant impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations. However, the
ultimate value of the Company's assets is uncertain and may change
materially when the Company emerges from bankruptcy.
7. DEBTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following is condensed combined financial information for the
Debtors. The combined financial statements have been prepared on the
same basis as the consolidated financial statements. Liabilities
subject to compromise shown on the September 30, 2002 and December 31,

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
As used in the report, the terms "Thermadyne" and the "Company" mean
Thermadyne Holdings Corporation, the term "Thermadyne LLC" means
Thermadyne Mfg. LLC, a wholly owned and the principal operating
subsidiary of Thermadyne Holdings Corporation, and the term "Thermadyne
Capital" means Thermadyne Capital Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Thermadyne LLC. The Company is a global manufacturer of cutting and
welding products and accessories.
UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of Thermadyne LLC have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2002. For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2001.
CO-ISSUER
Thermadyne Capital was formed solely for the purpose of serving as a
co-issuer of the 9-7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. Thermadyne
Capital has no substantial assets or liabilities and no operations of
any kind, and the Indenture pursuant to which the Senior Subordinated
Notes were issued limits Thermadyne Capital's ability to acquire or
hold any significant assets, incur any liabilities or engage in any
business activities, other than in connection with the issuance of the
Senior Subordinated Notes.
BANKRUPTCY FILING
On November 19, 2001, the Company and substantially all of its domestic
subsidiaries, including Thermadyne LLC and Thermadyne Capital
(collectively, the "Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions for relief
under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Missouri (the
"Court".) The filing resulted from insufficient liquidity, and was
determined to be the most efficient and favorable alternative to
restructure the Company's balance sheet. Since 1998, the Company's
operating results have been negatively impacted by a weak industrial
economy in the U.S. as well as difficult economic conditions in most of
its foreign markets. The deterioration of operating results and
liquidity made it increasingly difficult for the Company to meet all of
its debt service obligations. Prior to filing Chapter 11, the Company
failed to make the semi-annual interest payments on the 10.75%
21
THERMADYNE MFG. LLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS)
(UNAUDITED)
subordinated notes, due November 1, 2003 (the "Subordinated Notes"),
which were due on May 1 and November 1, 2001, and totaled approximately
$4.0 million. In addition, the Company failed to make an interest
payment in the amount of $10.2 million related to the 9.875% senior
subordinated notes, due June 1, 2008 (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"),
which was due on June 1, 2001. The Bankruptcy Code generally prohibits
the Company from making payments on unsecured, pre-petition debt,
including the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Subordinated Notes,
except pursuant to a confirmed plan of reorganization. The Company is
in possession of its properties and assets and continues to manage the
business as a debtor-in-possession subject to the supervision of the
Court.
On January 8, 2002, the Court entered the final order approving a new
$60 million debtor-in-possession credit facility among Thermadyne LLC,
as borrower, the Company and certain U.S. subsidiaries as guarantors,
and a syndicate of lenders with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. as agent (the "DIP
Facility".) Prior to the final order, on November 21, 2001, the Court
entered an interim order authorizing the Debtors to use up to $25
million of the DIP Facility for loans and letters of credit. The DIP
Facility expires on the earlier of the consummation of a plan of
reorganization or November 21, 2002. On November 1, 2002, the Debtors
filed a motion with the Court to amend the DIP Facility to extend its
expiration date to May 21, 2003. In addition, the motion to amend the
DIP Facility would lower the total capacity from $60 million to $50
million. All other terms of the DIP Facility would remain substantially
the same. On November 15, 2002, the Court will hear this motion for
extension. The Company also expects its lenders to approve the
extension of the DIP Facility prior to November 21, 2002. The DIP
Facility is secured by substantially all the assets of the Debtors,
including a pledge of the capital stock of substantially all their
subsidiaries, subject to certain limitations with respect to foreign
subsidiaries. Actual borrowing availability is subject to a borrowing
base calculation. The amount available to the Company under the DIP
Facility is equal to the sum of approximately 85% of eligible accounts
receivable, 50% of eligible inventory and 72% of eligible fixed assets.
As of September 30, 2002, the Company's eligible accounts receivable,
inventories and fixed assets supported access to the full amount of the
DIP Facility less outstanding borrowings and letters of credit. As of
September 30, 2002, the Company had borrowed $10.2 million and issued
letters of credit of $4.4 million under the DIP Facility. The DIP
Facility contains financial covenants, including minimum levels of
EBITDA (defined as net income or loss plus depreciation, amortization
of goodwill, amortization of intangibles, net periodic postretirement
benefits expense, interest expense, income taxes, amortization of
deferred financing costs, any net loss realized in connection with the
sale of any asset, any extraordinary loss or the non-cash portion of
non-recurring expenses, and reorganization costs; minus any
extraordinary gain), and other customary provisions.
As of December 1, 2001, Thermadyne LLC discontinued accruing interest
on the Senior Subordinated Notes and the 15% junior subordinated notes,
due December 15, 2009 (the "Junior Notes"). Contractual interest on the
Senior Subordinated Notes and the Junior Notes for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002, was $5.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively,
and for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, was $15.3 million and
$3.9 million, respectively. No interest was recorded for the Senior
Subordinated Notes or the Junior Notes during the three or

nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002. As part of the Court order
approving the DIP Facility, the Company was required to continue making
period interest payments on its old syndicated senior secured credit
agreement (the "Old Credit Agreement.") This order did not approve the
payment of any principal outstanding under the Old Credit Facility as
of the petition date, or the payment of any future mandatory
amortization of the loans. In total, contractual interest on the
Company's obligations was $11.7 million and $36.1 million, for the
three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002, respectively,
which was $6.5 million and $19.2 million in excess of reported
interest, respectively.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, all actions to
collect upon any of the Debtors' liabilities as of the petition date or
to enforce pre-petition date contractual obligations were automatically
stayed. Absent approval from the Court, the Debtors are prohibited from
paying pre-petition obligations. However, the Court has approved
payment of certain pre-petition liabilities such as employee wages and
benefits and certain other pre-petition obligations. Additionally, the
Court has approved the retention of legal and financial professionals.
Claims were allowed to be filed against the Debtors through April 19,
2002. As debtor-in-possession, the Company has the right, subject to
court approval and certain other conditions, to assume or reject any
pre-petition executory contracts and unexpired leases. Parties affected
by such rejections may file pre-petition claims with the Court in
accordance with bankruptcy procedures.
The Company is currently developing a plan of reorganization (the "Plan
of Reorganization") through, among other things, discussions with the
official creditor's committee appointed in the Chapter 11 proceedings
and the lenders. The objective of the Plan of Reorganization is to
restructure the Company's balance sheet to significantly strengthen the
Company's financial position.
Management expects that a Plan of Reorganization will be completed and
ready to file with the Court during the fourth calendar quarter of
2002. Although management expects to file the Plan of Reorganization,
there can be no assurance at this time that a Plan of Reorganization
will be proposed by the Company, approved or confirmed by the Court, or
that such plan will be consummated. On October 30, 2002, the Court
approved the Company's motion to extend the period during which the
Debtors may file a Plan of Reorganization through November 18, 2002. If
the exclusivity period were to expire or be terminated, other
interested parties, such as creditors of the Debtors, would have the
right to propose alternative plans of reorganization.
Absent a successful restructuring of the Company's balance sheet,
substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis. This basis contemplates the continuity of
operations, realization of assets, and discharge of liabilities in the
ordinary course of business. The statements also present the assets of
the Company at historical cost and the current intention that they will
be realized as a going concern and in the normal course of business. A
Plan of Reorganization could materially change the amounts currently
disclosed in the financial statements.

The Company's financial statements do not present the amount which may
ultimately be paid to settle liabilities and contingencies which may be
allowed in the Chapter 11 case. Under Chapter 11, the rights of, and
ultimate payment by the Company to, pre-petition creditors may be
substantially altered. This could result in claims being paid in the
Chapter 11 proceedings at less (and possibly substantially less) than
100% of their face value. At this time, because of material
uncertainties, pre-petition claims are carried at face value in the
accompanying financial statements, and are included in the line
"liabilities subject to compromise" on the consolidated balance sheets.
Additionally, the interests of existing preferred and common
shareholders could be substantially diluted or even eliminated.
LIABILITIES SUBJECT TO COMPROMISE
Under Chapter 11, certain claims against the debtor in existence prior
to the filing of the petition for relief under federal bankruptcy laws
are stayed while the debtor continues business operations as
debtor-in-possession. These claims are shown in the accompanying
balance sheets as "liabilities subject to compromise." Additional
claims (liabilities subject to compromise) may arise subsequent to the
filing date resulting from rejection of executory contracts, including
leases, and from the determination by the Court (or agreed to by
parties in interest) of allowed claims for contingencies and other
disputed amounts. Claims secured against the debtor's assets also are
stayed, although the holders of such claims have the right to move the
Court for relief from the stay. The principal categories of liabilities
subject to compromise consisted of the following:

3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company reports its segment information by geographic region.
Although the Company's domestic operation is comprised of several
individual business units, similarity of products, paths to market, end
users, and production processes results in performance evaluation and
decisions regarding allocation of resources being made on a combined
basis. The Company's reportable geographic regions are the United
States, Europe and Australia/Asia.
The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based
principally on operating income net of any special charges or
significant one-time charges. The accounting policies of the reportable
segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant
accounting policies. Intersegment sales are based on market prices.
Summarized financial information concerning the Company's reportable
segments is shown in the following table. Export sales from the United
States are included in the United States segment. The "Other" column
includes the elimination of intersegment sales and profits, corporate
related items and other costs not allocated to the reportable segments.

4. COMPREHENSIVE LOSS
Comprehensive loss totaled $4,501 and $14,398 for the three months
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. For the nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, comprehensive loss was
$5,573 and $36,921, respectively.
5. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
The DIP Facility provides for total borrowings of $60 million, of which
up to $15 million may be used for letters of credit. Actual borrowing
availability is subject to a borrowing base calculation, which is equal
to the sum of approximately 85% of eligible accounts receivable, 50% of
eligible inventory and 72% of eligible fixed assets. As of September
30, 2002, the Company's eligible accounts receivable, inventories and
fixed assets supported access to the full amount of the DIP Facility
less outstanding borrowings and letters of credit. As of September 30,
2002, the Company had borrowed $10.2 million and issued letters of
credit of $8.4 million under the DIP Facility.
As of December 1, 2001, the Company discontinued accruing interest on
the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Junior Notes. Contractual
interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Junior Notes for the
quarter ended September 30, 2002, was $5.1 million and $1.4 million,
respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, was
$15.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively. No interest was recorded
for the Senior Subordinated Notes or the Junior Notes during the three
or nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002. The Bankruptcy Code
generally prohibits the Company from making payments on unsecured,
pre-petition debt, including the Senior Subordinated Notes and the
Subordinated Notes, except pursuant to a confirmed Plan of
Reorganization.
6. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
("SFAS 142".) SFAS 142 prohibits the amortization of
27
THERMADYNE MFG. LLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(IN THOUSANDS)
(UNAUDITED)
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. SFAS 142
requires these assets be reviewed for impairment at least annually.
Intangible assets with finite lives will continue to be amortized over
their estimated useful lives. In addition, SFAS 142 requires goodwill
included in the carrying value of equity method investments no longer
be amortized.
The Company ceased amortization on January 1, 2002 of its goodwill,
which had a net balance of approximately $11,355 at January 1, 2002.
During the third quarter of 2001 the Company recorded $114 of goodwill
amortization, and through the first nine months of 2001 recorded
goodwill amortization of $249. Excluding this expense the Company's net
loss would have been $13,922 and $31,814 for the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2001, respectively.
The Company capitalizes loan origination fees and other costs incurred
arranging long-term financing as deferred financing costs. The costs
are amortized over the respective lives of the obligations using the
effective interest method. Deferred financing costs totaled $22,077 at
September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001. Accumulated amortization
totaled $12,871 and $10,668 at September 30, 2002 and December 31,
2001, respectively. Amortization expense amounted to $735 for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2002 and was $736 for the same
period in 2001. Amortization expense was $2,205 and $2,206 for the
nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Amortization expense for fiscal 2002 to 2005 is expected to be as
follows: $2,940, $2,940, $2,940, and $2,589.
The Company has other identifiable intangible assets such as patented
technology, non-compete agreements and trademarks. These intangibles
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the various estimated
useful lives, which generally range from three to 25 years. The total
cost of these intangible assets was $11,107 and $11,420 at September
30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. Accumulated amortization
totaled $9,470 and $9,353 at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001,
respectively. Amortization expense amounted to $193 and $456 for the
three-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively,
and was $767 and $1,362 for the nine months ended September, 30, 2002
and 2001, respectively. Amortization expense is expected to be
approximately $1,000 in 2002 and 2003 and approximately $425 in 2004.
The adoption of SFAS 142 did not have a significant impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations. However, the
ultimate value of the Company's assets is uncertain and may change
materially when the Company emerges from bankruptcy.
7. GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES AND DEBTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Guarantor Subsidiaries
Thermadyne LLC and Thermadyne Capital, both wholly-owned subsidiaries
of Thermadyne, issued $207 million of Senior Subordinated Notes.
Thermadyne received all of the net proceeds from the issuance of the
Senior Subordinated Notes and Thermadyne LLC and Thermadyne Capital are
jointly and severally liable for all payments under the Senior
Subordinated Notes.

(UNAUDITED)
Additionally, the Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and
unconditionally (as well as jointly and severally) guaranteed on an
unsecured senior subordinated basis by certain subsidiaries of the
Company (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). Each of the Guarantor
Subsidiaries is wholly-owned by Thermadyne LLC.
The following condensed consolidating financial information of
Thermadyne LLC includes the accounts of Thermadyne LLC, the combined
accounts of the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the combined accounts of the
non-guarantor subsidiaries for the periods indicated. Separate
financial statements of each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not
presented because management has determined that such information is
not material in assessing the Guarantor Subsidiaries.
Debtor Financial Information
In the following condensed financial information the combination of the
amounts in the columns "Thermadyne LLC" and "Total Guarantors"
represents, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Debtors, excluding Thermadyne Holdings Corporation, as of September 30,
2002 and December 31, 2001, and their results of operations and cash
flows for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and
2001. This information was prepared on the same basis as the
consolidated financial statements.
