HEALTHTRONICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2005
(Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the accounting principles for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the statement of the financial position as of March 31, 2005 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These statements have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

The notes to consolidated financial statements appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no significant changes in the information reported in those notes other than from normal business activities and as discussed herein.

On November 10, 2004, Prime Medical Services, Inc. (“Prime”) completed a merger with HealthTronics Surgical Services, Inc. (“HSS”) pursuant to which Prime merged with and into HSS, with HealthTronics, Inc. (“HealthTronics”) as the surviving corporation. Under the terms of the merger agreement, as a result of the merger, Prime’s stockholders received one share of HealthTronics common stock for each share of Prime common stock they owned. Immediately following the merger, Prime’s stockholders owned approximately 62% of the outstanding shares of HealthTronics common stock, and Prime’s directors and senior management represented a majority of the combined company’s directors and senior management. As a result, Prime was deemed to be the acquiring company for accounting purposes and the merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The consideration paid (purchase price) was allocated to the tangible and intangible net assets of HSS based on their fair values, and the net assets of HSS were recorded at their fair values as of the completion of the merger and added to those of Prime. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were deemed to be those of HealthTronics because HealthTronics was the surviving legal entity. The purchase price has been allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired on a preliminary basis and may change as additional information becomes available. The fair value of accounts receivable, leases, deferred taxes, and assets held for sale remains preliminary. Upon resolution of any amounts which existed as of the date of acquisition, we will reflect any settlements as an adjustment to goodwill.

In March 2005, we refinanced our existing revolving credit facility with a $175 million senior credit facility comprised of a five year $50 million revolver and a $125 million senior secured term loan B (“term loan B”), due 2011. In April 2005, we used the proceeds from the new term loan B to redeem our $100 million of 8.75% unsecured senior subordinated notes and reduce the amounts outstanding under our new revolving credit facility. We paid approximately $1.2 million in loan fees in March 2005 related to this refinancing and paid a $1.5 million premium to redeem the 8.75% notes in April 2005.
