Hanger Orthopedic Group Inc. (HGR, Financial) filed Annual Report for the period ended 2010-12-31.

Highlight of Business Operations:

For the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, our net sales were $817.4 million, $760.1 million, and $703.1 million, respectively. We recorded net income of $21.4 million, $36.1 million, and $26.7 million, for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

We provide goods and services to the O&P, post-acute, and other rehabilitation markets. We estimate that the O&P patient care market in the United States is approximately $2.6 billion, of which we account for approximately 27%, and the post-acute rehabilitation and other rehabilitation market is approximately $1.3 billion, of which we account for 5%. We commissioned a study over the past six to nine months which identified additional opportunities to leverage our expertise beyond the traditional O&P market, and we believe these additional opportunities could potentially expand our available O&P market by an additional $1.4 billion to $4.0 billion.

We estimate the post-acute rehabilitation market to include approximately 15,000 skilled nursing facilities and to have a market potential of approximately $0.2 billion. We provide technologically advanced rehabilitation equipment and clinical programs to approximately 30% of the post-acute market. We estimate the broader rehabilitation markets, which include independent rehabilitation providers and providers in other post-acute settings, to be approximately $1.1 billion. We currently provide goods and services to very few customers in this portion of the market, however, we believe this market would benefit from our products and services.

Through the normal course of business, we receive patient deposits on devices not yet delivered. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had received $0.8 million and $0.9 million of deposits, respectively, from our patients.

In 2010, we acquired five O&P companies, operating a total of six patient care centers located in California, New York, Texas, and Utah. The aggregate purchase price for these O&P businesses was $10.6 million, and the expenses incurred by us were insignificant and are included in other operating expenses in the period incurred. During the fourth quarter, we completed the acquisition of ACP for a purchase price of approximately $157.8 million, and we incurred approximately $5.4 million of related expenses in connection with the acquisition. In 2009, we acquired seven O&P companies and one fabrication facility, operating a total of 23 patient care centers, located in California, Iowa, Nebraska, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington. The aggregate purchase price for these O&P businesses was $16.6 million.
