Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2002

(1) Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management all adjustments and accruals (consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments), which are necessary for a fair
presentation of operating results are reflected in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. Reference should be made to Howtek,
Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 for
a summary of significant accounting policies. Interim period amounts are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full
fiscal year.

(2) Loan Payable to Related Party

The Company has a Revolving Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan
Agreement") with Mr. Robert Howard, Chairman of the Board of Directors of
the Company, under which Mr. Howard has agreed to advance funds, or to
provide guarantees of advances made by third parties in an amount up to
$3,000,000. Outstanding advances are collateralized by substantially all
of the assets of the Company and bear interest at prime interest rate plus
2%. Mr. Howard is entitled to convert outstanding advances made by him
under the Loan Agreement into shares of the Company's common stock at any
time based on the outstanding closing market price of the Company's common
stock at the lesser of the market price at the time each advance is made
or at the time of conversion. During the second quarter of 2002 the
Company borrowed $250,000 pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

In March 2002, Mr. Howard converted $500,000 of advances made under the
Loan Agreement into 215,517 shares of restricted common stock of the
Company. At June 30, 2002, $250,000 was outstanding under the Loan
Agreement and $2,750,000 was available for future borrowings.

The Company had Secured Demand Notes and Security Agreements (the "Notes")
owed to Mr. Robert Howard. The principal of these Notes was due and
payable in full, together with interest accrued and any penalties provided
for, on demand. Under the terms of the Notes the Company agreed to pay
interest at the lower rate of (a) 12% per annum, compounded monthly or (b)
the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. Payment of the Notes was
secured by a security interest in certain assets of the Company. In March
2002, the Company repaid the principal balance due in the amount of
$500,000 and the Notes were discharged.

(3) Litigation

A complaint was filed against the Company and 213 other defendants in the
United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, entitled
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Electronics for Imaging,
Inc. v. Abacus Software Inc. et al., Case No. 501CV344. The plaintiff
claims the Company and other defendants have infringed a United States
patent alleged to cover color reproduction system technology. With respect
to the Company, the alleged infringement involves certain of the Company
scanners and other products sold to customers in the graphic arts/prepress
and photographic markets. The case seeks unspecified damages together with
interest, injunctive relief and recovery of reasonable attorney's fees.

On June 3, 2002, ISSI was sued in United States District Court for the
District of Delaware by R2 Technology, Inc. and Shih-Ping Wang. The
lawsuit alleges that ISSI's MammoReader device infringes certain patents
owned by R2 Technology, Inc. The complaint request treble damages, but
does not specify the amount of damages sought. The complaint also seeks to
enjoin ISSI from further infringement. On July 11, 2002, subsequent to the
acquisition of ISSI by Howtek, the plaintiffs amended their complaint to
add icad, inc. (formerly, Howtek Inc.) and ISSI Acquisition Corp. as
additional parties. The Company believes the lawsuit is without merit and
intents to vigorously defend itself.

(4) Acquisition

On June 28, 2002, the Company completed the acquisition of Intelligent
Systems Software, Inc. ("ISSI") pursuant to the previously reported plan
and agreement of merger. The Company acquired all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of ISSI, a privately held company based in Boca
Raton, Florida. In the merger, the Company issued a total of 10,400,000
shares of its common stock to the ISSI stockholders, including 2,000,000
shares of the Company's common stock which were issued to a corporation
owned by the Chairman of the Company, Mr. Robert Howard, in exchange for
shares of ISSI Common Stock purchased by the corporation immediately prior
to the merger, as approved by the Company's shareholders and in accordance
with the provisions of the merger agreement. In connection with the
2,000,000 shares issued to the corporation owned by Mr. Howard, the
Company recorded compensation expense of $2,800,000, which represents the
amount that the fair market value if ICAD common shares issued exceeded
the consideration paid for ISSI common stock. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly, the operations of ISSI are
included in the consolidated financial statements since the effective
date, the close of business on June 28, 2002. The purchase price has been
allocated to net assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The
excess of the purchase price over net assets acquired has been allocated
to Goodwill for approximately $20,023,000. Results of operations of ISSI
for the period June 29, 2002 to June 30, 2002 were not material.

Results of Operations

Overview

icad, inc., formerly Howtek, Inc., ("the Company") designs, develops,
manufactures and markets Computer Aided Detection (CAD) imaging technology for
mammography applications. In January 2002, the Company received an approval from
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market and sell its new CAD-based
MammoReader(TM) system in the United States. The Company's MammoReader system
promises to play a key role in the early identification of breast cancer by
assisting radiologists in detecting subtle signs of cancer. The Company is the
only vertically integrated company in its market. The Company's MammoReader(TM)
system includes proprietary software technology developed by the Company and a
radiographic film digitizer manufactured by the Company, together with standard
computer and display equipment.

Merger with ISSI

On June 28, 2002, the Company completed the acquisition of Intelligent Systems
Software, Inc. ("ISSI") pursuant to the previously reported plan and agreement
of merger. The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock
of ISSI, a privately held company based in Boca Raton, Florida. In the merger,
the Company issued a total of 10,400,000 shares of its common stock to the ISSI
stockholders, including 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock which
were issued to a corporation owned by the Chairman of the Company, Mr. Robert
Howard, in exchange for shares of ISSI Common Stock purchased by that
corporation immediately prior to the merger, as approved by the Company's
shareholders and in accordance with the provisions of the merger agreement.


8


Subsequent to completion of the merger the Company amended its certificate of
incorporation to increase its authorized common stock to 50,000,000 shares,
change its name from "Howtek, Inc." to "icad, inc." and classify its Board of
Directors into three classes.

The Company's plan is to concentrate its sales efforts in the imaging and
scanning business on the computer-aided detection of breast cancer market, and
on complementary markets for its medical film digitizers, and to seek licensees
for its graphic arts and photographic product lines. The Company's
MammoReader(TM) product includes proprietary software technology developed by
the Company and a radiographic film digitizer manufactured by the Company,
together with standard computer and display equipment. This more focused shift
in business focus is largely responsible for reduced overall sales during the
first and second quarter of 2002.

Consistent with the Company's intention to concentrate its efforts in the
imaging and scanning business on higher margin medical and computer assisted
detection applications and seek licensees for its graphic arts and photographic
product lines, the Company established non-cash reserves and has taken inventory
adjustments associated with these products, which total approximately $3
million. icad's consolidated operating results for the second quarter includes
ISSI's operations for the three day period from June 28 to June 30, 2002 and do
not include ISSI sales or performance prior to that date.

Quarter Ended June 30, 2002 compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2001 and Six
Months Ended June 30, 2002 compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2001

Sales. Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2002 were $776,600, compared
with sales of $932,160 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. Sales for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 were $1,552,233, compared with sales of $2,445,764
for the comparable period in 2001. As a result of the Company's shift in the
focus of its business, sales of the Company's prepress and graphic arts
products, including related maintenance and repair services, decreased by
$60,488 and $461,144, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 2002, from $246,997 and $827,623, respectively, in 2001 to $186,509 and
$366,479 in 2002. Sales of the Company's FotoFunnel products decreased by
$67,794 and $290,102, respectively, for the three and six month periods ending
June 30, 2002, from $172,199 and $564,271, respectively, in 2001 to $104,405 and
$274,169 in 2002.

Sales of the Company's medical imaging products decreased slightly from $512,964
in the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to $485,686 in the quarter ended June 30,
2002. Medical sales for the six month period ended June 30, 2002 were $911,585,
compared with sales of $1,053,870 for the comparable period in 2001. The
Company's medical product sales are made primarily to it's respective
"integration partners" or resellers, which add software and other components to
the Company's products to provide full medical imaging solutions to their
customers. The Company believes that there has been a softening in the
telemedicine and Picture Archiving and


9


Communications Systems (PACS) segments of the medical market place, as customer
purchases are being deferred or reconsidered as a result of what is perceived to
be an overall softness in the economy.

Gross Margins. The decrease in gross margin for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 2002 is due primarily to the write-offs of inventory relating to
graphic arts and photographic products. The Company intends to concentrate its
efforts in the imaging and scanning business on higher margin medical and
computer assisted detection applications and seek licensees for its graphic arts
and photographic product lines. As a result of the foregoing, the Company
incurred a charge to cost of sales consisting of a charge for an inventory
reserve and a write-off of prepaid royalty in the amount of $2,837,196. Before
the write-off, gross margins for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
2002 increased to 22% and 23%, respectively, from 16% and 22%, respectively, in
the comparable periods in 2001. Exclusive of the write-off, gross margin
increased as a result of reduced production overhead and indirect production
expenses. The Company expects margins to improve as a result of increasing sales
of its MammoReader(TM) systems for the computer assisted detection of breast
cancer.

Engineering and Product Development. Engineering and product development costs
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 increased 70% and 45%,
respectively, from $198,888 and $362,864, respectively, in 2001 to $337,139 and
$526,895 in 2002. The increase in engineering and product development costs
resulted primarily from the Company's decision in the second quarter to
accelerate the development of its new medical digitizer product. The Company
expects engineering and product development costs to increase over the remainder
of 2002.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses in the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2002 increased by $3,771,404 and $3,690,448,
respectively, from $287,828 and $594,139 in 2001 to $4,059,232 and $4,284,587,
respectively, in 2002. The increase in general and administrative expenses
resulted primarily from a one-time, $2,800,000 non-cash accounting charge
associated with the placement of $2,000,000 in restricted common stock by ISSI
immediately prior to the successful acquisition of ISSI by icad. Pursuant to the
acquisition agreement between the two companies, which was approved by the
Company's shareholders, this sale of securities increased working capital and
funded the promotion of the MammoReader product. Additional increases reflected
non-recurring severance benefits and other expenses associated with reductions
of staff made possible by the combination of ISSI and Howtek, a write-off of
fixed assets, including test equipment and software development costs, relating
to its graphic arts and photographic product lines, an increase in provision for
doubtful accounts, and an accrued litigation cost in connection with the
complaint filed against the Company by The Massachusetts Institute of Technology
and Electronics for Imaging, Inc. See Part II, Item1 - Legal Proceedings.

Marketing and Sales Expenses. Marketing and sales expenses for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2002 decreased 33% and 43%, respectively, from
$427,818 and $965,883, respectively, in 2001 to $287,315 and $554,395,
respectively, in 2002. This decrease is due primarily to a significant reduction
in expenses related to the Company's traditional graphic arts and FotoFunnel
product lines.


10


Interest Expense. Net interest expense for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 2002 decreased to $10,077 and $29,229, respectively, from $30,036 and
$53,416, respectively, in 2001. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease in
loan balances and interest rates.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a net loss of $7,359,510 or
$0.47 per share for the three month period ended June 30, 2002 on sales of
$776,600 compared to a net loss of $797,943 or $0.06 per share from the same
period in 2001 on sales of $932,160. The loss for the six months ended June 30,
2002 was $7,880,632 or $0.51 per share on sales of $1,552,233 compared with a
net loss of $1,437,534 or $0.11 per share on sales of $2,445,764 for the six
months ended June 30, 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's ability to generate cash adequate to meet its requirements depends
primarily on operating cash flow and the availability of a $3,000,000 credit
line under the Loan Agreement with its Chairman, Mr. Robert Howard, of which
$2,750,000 was available at June 30, 2002.

At June 30, 2002 the Company had current assets of $3,942,779, current
liabilities of $4,185,089 and working capital deficit of $242,310. The ratio of
current assets to current liabilities was 0.9:1.

The Company had Secured Demand Notes and Security Agreements (the "Notes") owed
to Mr. Robert Howard. The principal of these Notes was due and payable in full,

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

A complaint was filed against the Company and 213 other defendants in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, entitled The
Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Electronics for Imaging, Inc. v.
Abacus Software Inc. et al., Case No. 501CV344. The plaintiff claims the Company
and other defendants have infringed a United States patent alleged to cover
color reproduction system technology. With respect to the Company, the alleged
infringement involves certain of the Company scanners and other products sold to
customers in the graphic


11


arts/prepress and photographic markets. The case seeks unspecified damages
together with interest, injunctive relief and recovery of reasonable attorney's
fees.

On June 3, 2002, ISSI was sued in United States District Court for the District
of Delaware by R2 Technology, Inc. and Shih-Ping Wang. The lawsuit alleges that
ISSI's MammoReader device infringes certain patents owned by R2 Technology, Inc.
The complaint request treble damages, but does not specify the amount of damages
sought. The complaint also seeks to enjoin ISSI from further infringement. On
July 11, 2002, subsequent to the acquisition of ISSI by Howtek, the plaintiffs
amended their complaint to add icad, inc. (formerly, Howtek Inc.) and ISSI
Acquisition Corp. as additional parties. The Company believes the lawsuit is
without merit and intents to vigorously defend itself.
