                         HORIZON MEDICAL PRODUCTS, INC.
          NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
         The interim condensed consolidated balance sheet of Horizon Medical
         Products, Inc. (the "Company") at December 31, 1998 has been derived
         from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements at such
         date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
         complete financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
         accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
         to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
         ("SEC") and instructions to Form 10-Q. The interim condensed
         consolidated financial statements at September 30, 1999, and for the
         three months and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are
         unaudited; however, these statements reflect all adjustments and
         disclosures which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a
         fair presentation. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
         nature unless noted otherwise. The results of operations for the
         interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of the
         full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
         with the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998,
         including, without limitation, the summary of accounting policies and
         notes and consolidated financial statements included therein.

         RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - In June 1997, the Financial
         Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial
         Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income,
         which requires the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
         its components in an entity's financial statements. The Company adopted
         SFAS No. 130 in 1998, and for the three months and nine months ended
         September 30, 1999 and 1998, there were no differences between net
         income and comprehensive income.

         In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
         Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 requires all
         derivatives to be measured at fair value and recognized as either
         assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. Changes in such fair value
         are required to be recognized immediately in net income (loss) to the
         extent the derivatives are not effective as hedges. SFAS No. 133, as
         amended by SFAS No. 137, Deferral of the Effective Date of FAS 133, is
         effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000 and is
         effective for interim periods in the initial year of adoption. The
         Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 133 to have a material
         impact.

3.       INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

         On April 20, 1998, the Company completed an initial public offering
         (the "Offering") of 3,473,000 shares of common stock at $14.50 per
         share. The Offering included 2,600,000 shares of common stock issued by
         the Company and 873,000 shares sold by a group of selling shareholders.
         Subsequently the underwriters of the Offering exercised their option to
         purchase 520,950 shares of common stock at $14.50 per share to cover
         over-allotments. Total proceeds to the Company after underwriters'
         discounts and commissions and other offering costs were $39,949,590
         through September 30, 1998. Subsequent to September 30, 1998, the
         Company recognized additional offering costs of $38,878, which reduced
         the Company's total net proceeds from the Offering to $39,910,712.

<PAGE>   10


         The number of stock options assumed to have been bought back by the
         Company for computational purposes has been calculated by dividing
         gross proceeds from all weighted average stock options outstanding
         during the period, as if exercised, by the average common share market
         price during the period. The average common share market price used in
         the above calculation was $4.34 for the three months ended September
         30, 1999 and $5.58 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

         Stock options to purchase shares of common stock at prices greater than
         the average market price of the common shares during that period are
         considered antidilutive. There were 297,481 options outstanding for the
         three months ended September 30, 1999 and 263,350 options outstanding
         for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 that expire in 2008 and
         2009, with exercise prices ranging from $5.75 to $ 15.50, that were not
         included in the computation of diluted EPS because the exercise price
         of the options was greater than the average market price of the common
         shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999.

         The EPS impact of the extraordinary items for the nine months ended
         September 30, 1998 was $.09.

5.       ACQUISITIONS

         On May 19, 1998, the Company completed the purchase of certain assets
         used in the manufacture and sale of the port product line of Ideas for
         Medicine, Inc. (the "IFM Port Line"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
         CryoLife, Inc. for approximately $100,000 in cash and a note payable in
         the amount of $482,110 (which is supported by a standby letter of
         credit that is due in November 1999). The acquisition has been
         accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly,
         the purchase price has been allocated to the net assets of IFM based on
         their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Operating
         results of IFM since May 19, 1998 are included in the Company's interim
         condensed consolidated financial statements.

         On June 2, 1998, the Company completed the purchase of certain assets
         used in the human vascular access business of Norfolk Medical Products,
         Inc. ("Norfolk") for $7,440,000 in cash and $1,860,000 in cash placed
         in escrow, which was released upon the successful transition by the
         seller of the acquired manufacturing line to Manchester, Georgia. The
         full amount of the escrowed cash was released prior to September 30,
         1999. The Company accounted for the acquisition using the purchase
         method of accounting and, accordingly, the purchase price has been
         allocated to the assets of Norfolk based on their estimated fair values
         at the date of acquisition. Operating results of Norfolk since June 2,
         1998 are included in the Company's interim condensed consolidated
         financial statements.

         Effective September 1, 1998, the Company completed the purchase of the
         net assets of Columbia Vital Systems, Inc. ("CVS") for $4 million in
         cash and a note payable of $225,000 due in September 2000. In addition,
         the purchase agreement provides for an increase in the purchase price
         of up to $4 million if CVS meets certain criteria over a two-year
         period. Any additional payments will be accounted for as additional
         costs of acquired assets and amortized over the



                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

         remaining life of the assets. Those criteria have not been met during
         the first year and, therefore, no additional purchase price has been
         recorded by the Company. The acquisition has been accounted for under
         the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the purchase price
         has been allocated to the net assets of CVS based upon their estimated
         fair values at the date of acquisition. Operating results of CVS since
         September 1, 1998 are included in the Company's interim condensed
         consolidated financial statements.

         On September 30, 1998, the Company completed the purchase of the net
         assets (other than ports) of Ideas for Medicine, Inc. ("IFM"), a wholly
         owned subsidiary of CryoLife, Inc., for $15 million in cash. Through
         this acquisition and the acquisition of the IFM Port Line, the Company
         has purchased substantially all of the operations of IFM. The
         acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of
         accounting and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to
         the net assets of IFM based on their estimated fair values at the date
         of acquisition. Operating results of IFM since September 30,1998, are
         included in the Company's interim condensed consolidated financial
         statements.

         Effective October 15, 1998, the Company completed the purchase of the
         outstanding stock of Stepic Corporation ("Stepic") for $8 million in
         cash and a note payable for $7.2 million over a three year period
         (which is supported by standby letters of credit). In addition, the
         Company agreed to pay the shareholders of Stepic up to an additional
         $4.8 million upon the successful achievement of certain specified
         future earnings targets by Stepic. Any additional payments will be
         accounted for as additional costs of acquired assets and amortized over
         the remaining life of the assets. During the nine months ended
         September 30, 1999, the Company recorded additional purchase price of
         $1.6 million, representing the Company's estimated contingent payment
         for the first anniversary year ending October 31, 1999 (see Note 7).
         The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of
         accounting and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to
         the net assets of Stepic based upon their estimated fair values at the
         date of acquisition.

         The following unaudited pro forma summary for the nine months ended
         September 30, 1998 combines the results of the Company with the
         acquisition of the Port Business of Norfolk and the acquisition of the
         net assets of CVS, IFM and Stepic, as if the acquisitions had occurred
         at the beginning of 1998.

         Certain adjustments, including interest expense on the acquisition
         debt, amortization of intangible assets and income tax effects, have
         been made to reflect the impact of the purchase transactions. These pro
         forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do
         not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the
         acquisitions been made at the beginning of 1998, or of results, which
         may occur in the future.

         income by the weighted average shares outstanding of 11,789,682 and

6.       EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS

         Effective January 29, 1998, NationsCredit, the Company's lender, agreed
         to the extinguishment of the put feature related to the warrants issued
         by the Company to NationsCredit in July 1997. As a result of this
         extinguishment in the first quarter of 1998, the Company recorded an
         extraordinary gain of $1.1 million, and the net recorded value of the
         warrant of $9.9 million was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

         In connection with the Offering, the Company was required to repay
         certain of its existing debt with a portion of the Offering proceeds.
         The Company recorded an $83,414 net loss on these early extinguishments
         of debt in the second quarter of 1998.

7.       COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

         The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in
         the ordinary course of its business. In the opinion of management, the
         amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not
         materially affect the consolidated financial position, results of
         operations, or cash flows of the Company.

         On October 20, 1999, the United States District Court for the Northern
         District of Georgia (Atlanta Division) dismissed the consolidated
         shareholder class action lawsuits that were pending against the
         Company, Marshall B. Hunt, William E. Peterson, Jr., Roy C. Mallady,
         Charles E. Adair, Mark A. Jewett, and Cordova Capital Partners LP -
         Enhanced Appreciation, one of the Company's institutional investors.
         The lawsuits, filed on October 30, 1998 and December 7, 1998, and
         consolidated in an amended complaint on March 8, 1999, sought class
         certification and rescissory and/or compensatory damages as well as
         expenses of litigation. The complaint alleged that the prospectus and
         registration statement used by the Company in connection with the April
         1998 initial public offering of the Company's common stock contained
         material omissions and misstatements. In dismissing the suits, the
         Court held that the plaintiffs failed to state an actionable claim of
         material misrepresentation under the federal securities laws because
         the prospectus contained ample and meaningful cautionary language
         specifically directed to the substance of the plaintiffs' alleged
         misstatements. The plaintiffs have thirty days from the date of the
         dismissal in which to file a notice of appeal, and the outcome of the
         matter cannot be predicted at this time. If the ultimate disposition of
         this matter is determined adversely to the Company, it could have a
         material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
         and results of operations.



                                      -12-

         The Company is subject to numerous federal, state and local
         environmental laws and regulations. Management believes that the
         Company is in material compliance with such laws and regulations and
         that potential environmental liabilities, if any, are not material to
         the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

         The Company is continuing negotiations with its lender and others for
         either an increase in its credit facility or a replacement facility.
         The Company has violated certain financial covenants of its current
         credit facility as of September 30, 1999, but has obtained an
         appropriate waiver of these covenants. This waiver is expressly
         conditioned on the Company's engaging an investment banking
         institution within thirty (30) days to raise junior capital in an
         amount of at least $10,000,000, and the Company and each party to the
         credit facility agreeing in the waiver that from the date of the
         waiver, no lender shall have any further obligation to make Loans
         pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement except as
         agreed by such lender in its good faith discretion. Should the Company
         not be successful in modifying its current credit facility, it may
         again violate certain financial covenants of the credit facility at
         the end of the fourth quarter 1999. Should this violation occur and
         not be waived by the lender or should a modification of the covenants
         not be obtained from the lender, there could be a material adverse
         effect on the Company's business, consolidated financial condition and
         results of operations.

         On September 30, 1998, the Company acquired certain assets used in the
         manufacture and sale of medical devices by Ideas for Medicine, Inc.
         ("IFM"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CryoLife, Inc. (the
         "Acquisition"). The Acquisition was consummated pursuant to an Asset
         Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 30, 1998, by and between the
         Company and IFM. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company and
         IFM entered into a manufacturing agreement (the "Manufacturing
         Agreement"), dated as of September 30, 1998, pursuant to which, for a
         four year term, IFM agreed to manufacture exclusively for the Company
         and the Company agreed to purchase from IFM a specified minimum amount
         of products (the "Products"). The Manufacturing Agreement requires that
         the Company make annual purchases of Products of at least $6,000,000.

         On June 22, 1999, IFM notified the Company that the Company was in
         breach of the Manufacturing Agreement. IFM notified the Company that
         the Company was in violation of the payment provision contained in the
         Manufacturing Agreement, which calls for the Company to pay amounts due
         to IFM within 45 days of the date of each invoice. The total accounts
         payable due to IFM under the Manufacturing Agreement at September 30,
         1999 was approximately $1.8 million. Additionally, IFM notified the
         Company that the Company was in violation of the Manufacturing
         Agreement due to the nonpayment of interest related to such past due
         accounts payable. In addition, IFM notified the Company that the
         Company was in breach for failing to provide a production schedule at
         the end of the first six months of the term of the Manufacturing
         Agreement and on a monthly basis thereafter. Finally, IFM notified the
         Company that the Company was in breach for the failure to provide
         packaging and labeling.

         The Company is in default under the Manufacturing Agreement. As a
         result, IFM may terminate the Manufacturing Agreement and may be
         entitled to receive an amount equal to (i) the direct costs incurred by
         IFM for all purchase orders committed for raw materials and components,
         (ii) the direct and indirect costs incurred by IFM for six months after
         such termination for labor utilized in the manufacture of the Products,
         and (iii) the fixed facility costs incurred by IFM in connection with
         the manufacture of the Products for the remainder of the term of the
         Manufacturing Agreement.

         The Company has continued to indicate to IFM that it will not be able
         to meet the minimum purchase requirements outlined in the
         Manufacturing Agreement, and the Company and IFM are currently in
         negotiations to revise the Manufacturing Agreement. The parties are
         currently operating under a verbal modification to the Manufacturing
         Agreement. Should the Company be unable to revise the Manufacturing
         Agreement to include acceptable terms or fail to continue to operate
         under the verbal modification to the Manufacturing Agreement, then any
         liabilities incurred as a result of the default could have a material
         adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position and
         disrupt the Company's ability to obtain and sell the Products.

         Also in connection with the acquisition of IFM, the Company assumed
         certain license agreements (the "IFM Licensors") for the right to
         manufacture and sell cholangiogram catheters, surgical retractors,
         embolectomy catheters, aortic occlusion catheters, suture needles and
         other medical instruments covered by the IFM Licensors' patents or
         derived from the IFM Licensors' confidential information. Payments
         under these agreements vary, depending on the individual products
         produced, and range from 1% to 5% of the Company's net sales of such
         licensed products. Such payments shall continue until the expiration of
         a fixed 20-year term or the expiration date of each corresponding
         licensed patent covering each product under the agreements.

         The Company is party to license agreements with an individual (the
         "Licensor") for the right to manufacture and sell dual lumen fistula
         needles, dual lumen over-the-needle catheters, dual lumen chronic and
         acute catheters, and other products covered by the Licensor's patents
         or derived from the Licensor's confidential information. Payments under
         the agreement vary, depending upon the purchaser, and range from 9% to
         15% of the Company's net sales of such licensed products. Such payments
         shall continue until the expiration date of each corresponding licensed
         patent covering each product under the agreements.

         On December 11, 1998, the Company entered into a long-term distribution
         agreement ("the Distribution Agreement") with a medical devices
         manufacturer. The Distribution Agreement provides for the manufacturer
         to supply and the Company to purchase certain minimum levels of
         vascular grafts for an initial term of three years. The Distribution
         Agreement may be automatically extended up to two additional years upon
         the achievement of annual minimum purchase targets as defined in the
         Distribution Agreement. The Agreement requires the Company to purchase
         a minimum of 4,500 units, 6,300 units and 8,800 units in the first 3
         years, respectively, following December 11, 1998. The agreement is
         cancelable at the option of the manufacturer if the Company fails to
         meet the quotas required under the Distribution Agreement.

         In connection with the Company's October 15, 1998 purchase of Stepic
         Corporation ("Stepic"), the Company agreed to pay the shareholders of
         Stepic up to an additional $4.8 million upon the successful achievement
         of certain specified future earnings targets by Stepic. Any additional
         purchase payments made under the purchase agreement will be accounted
         for as additional costs of acquired assets and amortized over the
         remaining life of the assets. During the nine months ended September
         30, 1999, the Company recorded additional purchase price and a
         liability of



                                      -14-
<PAGE>   15
         $1.6 million, representing the Company's estimated contingent payment
         for the first anniversary year ending October 31, 1999. Should Stepic's
         earnings exceed the target amount of $3.9 million for the first
         anniversary year, the liability will be increased by that amount. The
         contingent payment is due December 15, 1999 and will be paid from
         general company funds or funds obtained from the Company's lenders
         through an increase in or replacement of its current credit facility, a
         result of continuing negotiations with the lender. Should the Company
         not obtain an increase in or replacement of its current credit
         facility, the Company may not have sufficient funds to meet its
         obligations and, therefore, will be required to negotiate new payment
         terms with the shareholders of Stepic. Should these negotiations not be
         successful and should the Company be required to pay the additional
         purchase payment when due, there could be a material adverse effect on
         the Company's business, consolidated financial condition and results of
         operations.

8.       SEGMENT INFORMATION

         Since the acquisitions of Columbia Vital Systems, Inc. ("CVS") and
         Stepic Corporation ("Stepic") in 1998, the Company operates two
         reportable segments - (1) Manufacturing and (2) Distribution. The
         manufacturing segment includes products manufactured by the Company as
         well as products manufactured by third parties on behalf of the Company
         through manufacturing and supply agreements. Prior to the CVS and
         Stepic acquisitions, the Company operated as one segment,
         manufacturing. Thus, segment information as of and for the three and
         nine months ended September 30, 1998 are not be included in the tables
         below.

         The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on gross
         profit; therefore, selling, general, and administrative costs, as well
         as research and development, interest income/expense, and provision for
         income taxes, are reported on an entity wide basis only.

         The table below presents information about the reported sales (which
         include intersegment revenues), gross profit (which include
         intersegment gross profit) and identifiable assets of the Company's
         segments as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30,
         1999.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
          CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended September
30, 1998

         Net Sales. Net sales increased 134% to $18.8 million for the third
quarter of 1999 from $8.1 million for the third quarter of 1998. This increase
is primarily attributable to incremental sales resulting from the 1998
acquisitions of IFM, CVS and Stepic, which represented approximately $11.6
million of total sales for the quarter. The distribution segment was formed as a
result of the September 1, 1998 and October 15, 1998 acquisitions of CVS and
Stepic, respectively. The allocation of 1999 net sales on a segment basis
resulted in net sales of $8.5 million from the manufacturing segment and $11.2
million from the distribution segment, before intersegment eliminations. There
were no significant distribution segment sales for the third quarter of 1998.

         Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 60.6% to $7.4 million for the
third quarter of 1999 from $4.6 million for the third quarter of 1998. Gross
margin decreased to 39.0% in the third quarter of 1999 from 56.8% in the third
quarter of 1998. The decrease in gross margin is the result of the distribution
segment gross margin of 21.7%, a significantly lower margin than the
manufacturing segment margin of 58.3% for the three months ended September 30,
1999. The allocation of gross profit between segments is gross profit of $5.0
million from the manufacturing segment and $2.4 million from the distribution
segment, before intersegment eliminations.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $2.2 million or 66.5% to approximately
$5.4 million for the third quarter of 1999 compared with $3.2 million for the
third quarter of 1998. This increase is substantially attributable to expenses
incurred in operating the businesses acquired in 1998. SG&A expenses decreased
as a percentage of net sales to 28.7% for the third quarter of 1999 from 40.2%
for the third quarter of 1998. This decrease is due to the large revenue growth
in the third quarter of 1999, a result of the 1998 acquisitions of CVS, IFM and
Stepic.

         Interest Expense. Net interest expense increased to approximately $1.1
million in the third quarter of 1999 compared to approximately $29,000 in the
third quarter of 1998. The increase in 1999 is due to higher debt outstanding
during the third quarter of 1999 compared to the third quarter of 1998. This
increase in debt is primarily a result of the 1998 acquisitions.

         Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense decreased to approximately
$430,000 for the third quarter of 1999 from approximately $577,000 for the third
quarter of 1998. The slight decrease in 1999 was the result of lower taxable
income in the third quarter of 1999 compared to the third quarter of 1998 and
offset by a higher effective income tax rate in third quarter 1999 compared to
third quarter 1998.

<PAGE>   18


Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30,
1998

         Net Sales. Net sales increased 164% to $57.2 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999, from $21.6 million for the same period in 1998.
This increase is attributable to the additional revenue resulting from the 1998
acquisitions of IFM, CVS and Stepic, which represented an increase of
approximately $39.1 million. The distribution segment was formed as a result of
the September 1, 1998 and October 15, 1998 acquisitions of CVS and Stepic,
respectively. The allocation of 1999 net sales on a segment basis resulted in
net sales of $25.1 million from the manufacturing segment and $34.4 million from
the distribution segment, before intersegment eliminations. There were no
significant distribution segment sales for the nine months ended September 30,
1998.

         Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 68.8% to $22.1 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $13.1 million for the same period in
1998. Gross margin decreased to 38.7% in 1999 from 60.6% in 1998. The decrease
in gross margin is the result of the distribution segment gross margin of 21.7%,
a significantly lower margin than the manufacturing segment margin of 59.0% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The allocation of gross profit between
segments is $14.8 million for the manufacturing segment and $7.5 million for the
distribution segment, before intersegment eliminations.

         Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $6.4 million to $15.1 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $8.7 million for the same
period in 1998. The majority of the increase is due to the additional expenses
incurred in operating the businesses acquired in 1998. SG&A expenses decreased
as a percentage of net sales to 26.4% for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 from 40.0% for the same period in 1998. The decrease is due to the
substantial revenue growth from period to period.

         Interest Expense. Net interest expense increased approximately $743,000
to $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $2.3
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The higher interest
expense in 1999 is attributable to higher debt outstanding for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999.

         Income Tax Expense. Income taxes increased approximately $331,000 to
$1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 from approximately
$1.5 million for the same period in 1998. This increase is attributable to the
Company generating higher taxable income in 1999 as compared to 1998.

         Extraordinary Items. During 1998, the Company incurred extraordinary
net losses of approximately $83,000, net of applicable income tax benefit of
approximately $53,300, associated with the early extinguishment of certain debt,
which the Company repaid using proceeds from the IPO. In addition, the Company
recorded an extraordinary gain of $1.1 million in 1998 due to the rescission of
a put feature associated with the NationsCredit Warrant that was issued in 1997.
These transactions are more fully described in Notes 6, 9 and 13 of the
Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used in operating activities was $ 4,721,376 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared with $ 585,954 for the nine months ended September
30, 1998. The increase in cash used in operations during 1999 was primarily
attributable to the reduction of accounts payable and income taxes payable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $388,521 in 1999 compared to
$30,436,937 in 1998. Substantially all of the investing activities in 1999 were
for capital expenditures for the Company's facilities. The investing activities
in 1998 primarily consisted of cash paid for the acquisitions of Norfolk, CVS
and IFM of $28.4 million and for capital expenditures for the Company's
facilities of approximately $1.4 million.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was ($421,462) in 1999
compared to $28,916,303 in 1998. Financing activities in 1999 consisted
primarily of principal payments on outstanding debt. The primary source of cash
in financing activities in 1998 was the Company's initial public offering of its
common stock, which generated approximately $40 million of net proceeds to the
Company as well as proceeds of $19 million from the issuance of long-term debt
for payment of the 1998 acquisitions of CVS and IFM. Approximately $28 million
of the IPO proceeds was used to repay debt in 1998.

As discussed more fully in Note 6 of the Company's consolidated financial
statements included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1998, in May 1998, the Company entered into a $50 million amended and restated
credit facility with NationsCredit to be used for working capital purposes and
to fund future acquisitions. The Company is negotiating with its lenders and
others for either an increase in its credit facility or a replacement facility
which, together with its cash flows from operations the Company believes will be
sufficient to satisfy its future working capital and capital expenditure
requirements. Should an increase in its credit facility, or a replacement
facility not be obtained, the Company may have difficulty in meeting the IFM and
Stepic obligations as discussed in further detail in Note 7 of the Company's
interim condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q. The Company violated certain financial covenants of its current
credit facility as of September 30, 1999, but has obtained an appropriate waiver
of these covenants. This waiver is expressly conditioned on the Company's
engaging an investment banking institution within thirty (30) days to raise
junior capital in an amount of at least $10,000,000, and the Company and each
party to the credit facility agreeing in the waiver that from the date of the
waiver, no lender shall have any further obligation to make Loans pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement except as agreed by such lender
in its good faith discretion. Should the Company not be successful in modifying
its current credit facility, it may again violate certain financial covenants of
the credit facility at the end of the fourth quarter 1999. Should this violation
occur and waivers not be obtained or should a modification of the covenants not
be obtained from the lender, there could be a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

The Company is continuing negotiations to resolve the violations of its
Manufacturing Agreement with IFM dated September 30, 1998. The Company was
notified on June 22, 1999 by IFM that it was in breach of the Manufacturing
Agreement for certain violations as discussed in further detail in Note 7 of the
Company's interim condensed consolidated financial statements contained
elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

The Company and IFM are currently operating under a verbal modification to the
Manufacturing Agreement. Should the Company be unable to revise the
Manufacturing Agreement to include acceptable terms or fail to continue to
operate under the verbal modification to the Manufacturing Agreement, then any
liabilities incurred as a result of the default could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, consolidated financial condition and results
of operations.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE

Some computer systems use only two digits to represent the year and they may be
unable to process accurately certain data before, during or after the year 2000.
This is commonly known as the Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue. Based on the Company's
review of its business and operating systems, the Company does not expect to
incur material cost with respect to assessing and remediating Y2K problems;
however, there can be no assurance that such problems will not be encountered or
that the costs incurred to resolve such problems will not be material.

The Company's definition of Y2K compliance means that all aspects of the
business processes have been evaluated for potential Y2K problems that effect
manufacturing, tracking, distribution, performance, functionality and
effectiveness of its products. These include: products manufactured, internal
financial and manufacturing information systems, internal equipment used in the
manufacturing process of its products, suppliers of products, and suppliers of
raw materials and services to the Company.

The Company does not manufacture any products that use any type of software or
microprocessors. None of the Company's manufactured products, once manufactured,
are affected by the Y2K date problem.

The Company has identified and is in the process of correcting Y2K problems
within its internal information systems. This includes a change in server
operating systems, new financial system software and all related hardware. These
changes are currently scheduled to be completed, operational, and compliant by
November 30, 1999.

The implementation of the new computer systems described above was planned and
is considered part of the Company's normal business. The Company does not track
its internal costs incurred related to Y2K; these costs however, to date,
consist primarily of the related payroll costs of its information systems group
and certain other employees and are not material.

The Company's primary computer system utilized in its New York distribution
business is currently in the final modification phase. This final modification
phase, originally scheduled for completion by June 30, 1999, should be completed
by November 30, 1999. The Company has also surveyed its embedded telephone and
voice mail systems at its Atlanta and Manchester offices and determined that
they are substantially Y2K compliant.

The Company's Medical Device Reporting software has been upgraded to comply with
FDA Year 2000 requirements. The upgrade also complies with International
Regulatory Affairs Year 2000 requirements.

The Company is currently in the process of evaluating all suppliers for Y2K
readiness. As of September 30, 1999 the results are as follows: 64% responded,
49% of those responding are Y2K compliant, 13.8% are addressing Y2K issues and
37.2% have yet to respond. If critical suppliers are found to be not compliant
or have no contingency plans in place, the Company will make positive efforts to
obtain backup suppliers to ensure an uninterrupted flow of product. The Company,
however, will not have a contingency plan for a supplier's failure to deliver
electricity, gas or water services.

According to recent reports, the healthcare industry lags other industries in
Y2K preparedness. The reports indicate that the progress of health claims
billing systems of third party payers is progressing slowly. To the extent the
Company's customers experience problems with their payment collections or with
their product ordering procedures, the Company's ability to collect payments or
receive product orders from its customers could be adversely affected and could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, liquidity,
consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

As noted above, the Company plans to have all internal systems Y2K compliant by
year-end 1999. The Company believes that other than for its electricity, gas and
water services, it is addressing the year 2000 issue and expects that through
its actions, year 2000 problems are not reasonably likely to have a material
adverse effect on its operations.

ITEM 3.       QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT
              MARKET RISK.

Like other companies, the Company is exposed to market risks relating to
fluctuations in interest rates. The Company's objective of financial risk
management is to minimize the negative impact of interest rate fluctuations on
the Company's earnings and cash flows.

To manage this risk, the company has entered into an interest rate cap agreement
("the Cap Agreement") with NationsBank, a major financial institution, to
minimize the risk of credit loss. The Company uses this Cap Agreement to reduce
risk by essentially creating offsetting market exposures. The Cap Agreement is
not held for trading purposes.

At December 31, 1998, and September 30, 1999, the Company had approximately $42
million outstanding under its Credit Facility, which expires in July 2004.
Amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility of approximately $13.3 million at
December 31, 1998, and $11.6 million at September 30, 1999, were subject to the
Cap Agreement, which expires in October 2002. The Cap Agreement settles
quarterly and the cap rate is 8.8%.

For more information on the Cap Agreement, see Notes 1 and 6 to the Company's
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1998.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

         On October 20, 1999, the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia (Atlanta Division) dismissed the consolidated shareholder
class action lawsuits that were pending against the Company, Marshall B. Hunt,
William E. Peterson, Jr., Roy C. Mallady, Charles E. Adair, Mark A. Jewett, and
Cordova Capital Partners LP - Enhanced Appreciation, one of the Company's
institutional investors. The lawsuits, filed on October 30, 1998 and December 7,
1998, and consolidated in an amended complaint on March 8, 1999, sought class
certification and rescissory and/or compensatory damages as well as expenses of
litigation. The complaint alleged that the prospectus and registration statement
used by the Company in connection with the April 1998 initial public offering of
the Company's common stock contained material omissions and misstatements. In
dismissing the suits, the Court held that the plaintiffs failed to state an
actionable claim of material misrepresentation under the federal securities laws
because the prospectus contained ample and meaningful cautionary language
specifically directed to the substance of the plaintiffs' alleged misstatements.
The plaintiffs have thirty days from the date of the dismissal in which to file
a notice of appeal, and the outcome of the matter cannot be predicted at this
time. If the ultimate disposition of this matter is determined adversely to the
Company, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 5.   OTHER INFORMATION.

On November 8, 1999, the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company
began trading on the American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX") under the ticker
symbol "HMP." The Company's Common Stock previously traded on the Nasdaq
National Market under the ticker symbol "HMPS." The Company was required to move
from the Nasdaq National Market due to its failure to meet all of the
maintenance requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq National Market. A
copy of the press release announcing the Company's move to the AMEX is attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
