BOVIE
          MEDICAL CORPORATION
        Overview
        Bovie
          Medical Corporation (“the Company” or “Bovie”) was incorporated in 1982, under
          the laws of the State of Delaware and has its principal executive office
          at 734
          Walt Whitman Road, Melville, New York 11747. 
        Bovie
          is
          actively engaged in the business of manufacturing and marketing medical
          products
          and developing related technologies. Aaron Medical Industries, Inc. (“Aaron”), a
          100% owned subsidiary based in St. Petersburg, Florida is engaged in marketing
          our medical products. Bovie Canada ULC, a 100% owned subsidiary located
          in
          Windsor, Ontario, functions mainly as a product development and manufacturing
          company focused on endoscopic devices. Over the past several years, we
          changed
          our focus to the manufacture and marketing of generators and electrosurgical
          disposables, evidenced by the development of a broad range of electrosurgical
          generators designed for doctor’s offices, surgicenters and hospitals.
        We
          manufacture and market products both under private label and the Bovie/Aaron
          label to distributors worldwide. Additionally, Bovie/Aaron has original
          equipment manufacturing (OEM) agreements with other medical device
          manufacturers. These OEM and private label arrangements and our use of
          the
          Bovie/Aaron label allow us to gain greater market share for the distribution
          of
          our products. 
        Company
          Products
        Electrosurgery
          Products
        We
          continue to expand our line of electrosurgery products, which include,
          desiccators, generators, electrodes, electrosurgery pencils, and various
          ancillary disposable products. These products are used in surgery for the
          cutting and coagulation of tissue and constitute our largest product line.
          Our
          accessories for electrosurgery products are substantially compatible with
          most
          major manufacturers’ electrosurgery generator products. With the exception of
          OEM products, all of our electrosurgery generators and accessories are
          marketed
          using the internationally recognized Bovie trademark. It is estimated that
          80%
          of all surgical procedures performed worldwide are accomplished by
          electrosurgery, including laparoscopic, as well as general surgery and
          surgical
          procedures in gynecology, urology, plastic surgery and dermatology.
        Bovie/Aaron
          800 and 900 High Frequency Desiccators
        These
          products are low powered desiccators, designed primarily for dermatology
          and
          plastic surgery in a physician’s office. The units are 30-watt high frequency
          generators used mainly in doctors’ offices for removing small skin lesions and
          growths. 
        Bovie/Aaron
          950
        Bovie
          has
          developed the first high frequency desiccator with cut capacity for outpatient
          surgical procedures. It was designed mainly for use in doctors’ offices and is
          utilized in a variety of specialties including dermatology, gynecology,
          and
          plastic surgery. 
        Bovie/Aaron
          1250
        We
          have
          also developed a 120-watt multipurpose electrosurgery generator. The unit
          features monopolar and bipolar functions with pad sensing. The product
          is being
          produced in at least two private label formats in addition to the Bovie/Aaron
          label. 
        1
            Bovie/Aaron
          2250/IDS 300
        Given
          the
          market interest in more powerful electrosurgical generators, we have developed
          a
          200-watt multipurpose digital electrosurgery generator designed for the
          rapidly
          expanding surgi-center market in the United States. This unit features
          both
          monopolar and bipolar functions, has pad and tissue sensing, plus nine
          blended
          cutting settings. This unit has the capability to do most procedures performed
          today in the surgi-center or outpatient settings and was introduced in
          2003. The
          Bovie® IDS Series are the latest electrosurgical generators with fully digital
          implementation. Bovie is using dedicated digital hardware instead of a
          general
          purpose controller for processing data. The digital hardware allows very
          high
          parallel data processing throughout the operation. All data is sampled
          and
          processed digitally. While 200 watts is more than enough power to do most
          procedures in the operating room, 300 watts is considered the standard
          and
          believed to be what most hospitals and surgi-centers will require. The
          Bovie
          IDS-300 has been designed based on a digital feedback system. The unit
          has a
          tissue sensing capability 20 times faster than the market leader. For the
          first
          time in electrosurgery, through digital technology, we are able to measure
          tissue impedance in real time (5000 times a second). As the impedance varies,
          the power is adjusted to deliver a consistent clinical effect.
        Battery
          Operated Cauteries
        Battery
          operated cauteries constitute our second largest product line. Cauteries
          were
          originally designed for precise hemostasis (to stop bleeding) in ophthalmology.
          The current use of cauteries has been substantially expanded to include
          sculpting woven grafts in bypass surgery, vasectomies, evacuation of subungual
          hematoma (smashed fingernail) and for arresting bleeding in many types
          of
          surgery. Battery operated cauteries are primarily sterile one-time use
          products.
          Bovie manufactures the broadest line of cauteries in the world, including
          but
          not limited to, a line of replaceable battery and tip cauteries, which
          are
          popular in overseas markets. 
        Battery
          Operated Medical Lights
        We
          manufacture a variety of specialty lighting instruments for use in ophthalmology
          as well as patented specialty lighting instruments for general surgery,
          hip
          replacement surgery and for the placement of endotracheal tubes in emergency
          and
          surgical procedures. We also manufacture and market physicians’ office use
          penlights. 
        Nerve
          Locator Stimulator
        Bovie
          manufactures a nerve locator stimulator primarily used for identifying
          motor
          nerves in hand and facial reconstructive surgery. This instrument is a
          self-contained, battery-operated unit, used for single surgical
          procedures.
        New
          Products
        Low
          Temperature Focused Plasma Technology (in development)
        In
          February 2000, we entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with a non-affiliated
          German corporation, Jump Agentur Fur Elektrotechnik GMBH, wherein we have
          a 50%
          interest in the equity and a 50% interest in the profits of the joint venture.
          Pursuant to the agreement, Bovie initially advanced $200,000 to the partnership
          to cover costs of further research toward the production of two commercial
          prototypes. Bovie has made available its facilities in Florida for development,
          manufacturing and marketing of the products of the joint venture and is
          responsible to expend its best efforts to secure all necessary financing
          for the
          research, development and marketing of the products estimated to be an
          amount up
          to $1.5 million. To date we have expended approximately $.8 million for
          the
          development of the technology. Based upon our current cash position, cash
          flows
          and credit facility we believe we have the financial resources to satisfy
          our
          obligations. 
        Pursuant
          to agreement, the joint venture acquired an exclusive license to produce
          and
          market any surgical/medical devices utilizing this technology. In fiscal
          2006,
          2005 and 2004, Bovie made additional 
2
            advances
          to the joint venture in the form of research and development of prototypes
          expending $138,912, $161,190 and $39,286 in development and engineering
          costs,
          respectively. 
        This
          technology utilizes a gas ionization process using only one working electrode.
          The device produces a stable thin focused beam of ionized gas that can
          be
          controlled in a wide range of temperatures and intensities, providing the
          surgeon with precision, minimal invasiveness and an absence of conductive
          currents during surgery substantially reducing overheating in the area
          or
          burning.
        The
          device has been developed and patented in both Europe and the United States.
          Bovie has constructed several pre-production prototypes for field-testing
          purposes as a prelude to eventual FDA submission and clearance for
          manufacturing. The initial intended uses are in the areas of veterinary
          medicine, dermatology, plastic surgery, cosmetology and gastroenterology.
          
        Prior
          to
          contracting with JUMP Agentur and prior to the formation of the joint venture,
          JUMP Agentur had licensed its J-Plasma technology to Soring, a German company.
          The agreement was terminated but Soring has filed its own patent possibly
          using
          the plasma technology as its basis. Management of both JUMP and Bovie believes
          Soring may have breached its agreement with JUMP and may be liable for
          its
          actions. As a result there is no assurance that there will not be future
          litigation involving the joint venture and/or JUMP Agentur with
          Soring.
        To
          date
          there have been no revenues recorded by the joint venture.
        New
          Generator Platform
        We
          have
          developed a new generator platform, which incorporates a flexible and simple
          user interface and allows for customization of the output modes for a variety
          of
          electrosurgical applications. 
        | · | ICON
                  GI Device | 
The
          ICON
          GI (in development) is a custom designed specialty electrosurgical product
          for
          the gastroenterological market. This product is designed to improve safety
          and
          convenience in performing GI procedures (a) by ensuring that the accessories
          are
          properly connected, thereby avoiding procedural mishaps, and (b) by allowing
          for
          the settings to be customized by the physician user. Available statistics
          indicate that during the period 1996 to 2000 colonoscopies performed in
          the
          United States increased 100%. We have received US Food and Drug Administration
          (“FDA”) 510K clearance to market the ICON GI and we anticipate sales and
          production of these units to begin in the second quarter of 2007.

                  Button | 
After
          a
          review of time-motion studies and focus groups of gastroenterologists and
          GI lab
          assistants we have completed development of a new device designed to eliminate
          the foot pedal and cables which are associated with standard electrosurgical
          generators found in all gastrointestinal (“GI”) labs. On March 1, 2006, subject
          to sterilization validation, we received FDA 510K clearance to market the
          Bovie
          Button. We have recently commenced marketing of this product. 
        Suture
          Removal Device (in development)
        In
          October 2003 we entered into an exclusive worldwide license agreement with
          Emergency Medical Innovations, LLC., (EMI)
          a
          non-affiliated company, to manufacture and market a disposable suture removal
          device (patent pending). The device is expected to reduce time for removing
          stitches in a doctor’s office, medical clinic or emergency room. The device is
          designed to remove sutures with a tension free cut to be utilized in various
          medical procedures on humans and animals. We have received FDA 510K clearance
          and anticipate release and marketing to medical professionals during the
          second
          quarter of 2007. We expended development funds of approximately $35,197
          for
          fiscal 2006, $66,000 in 2005 and $50,000 in 2004. When the product begins
          selling we will pay a 6% royalty to EMI, the licensor.
3
            The
          exclusive license agreement provides for, among other things, a term of
          15
          years, with automatic 2-year renewals thereafter, subject to mutual agreement
          on
          minimum production and sales. Bovie has the right to terminate on 90-days
          notice
          to Licensor if it determines in its sole discretion that the product is
          non-competitive and not commercially viable. Licensor may terminate the
          agreement if Bovie violates a material term and does not cure the breach
          within
          60-days after receipt of notice of default. In addition, Bovie may lose
          exclusivity if there is a 10% decrease in sales over a consecutive two
          calendar
          year period. 
        Bovie
          may
          elect to retain exclusivity by paying sufficient royalties to offset loss
          to
          Licensor resulting from the decreased sales.
        Bovie
          IDS 400
        We
          have
          developed a new and more powerful 400 watt generator for sale in overseas
          markets. Shipments of the product are expected to commence late in the
          first
          quarter.
        Endoscopic
          Modular Instruments
        In
          January, 2006, pursuant to agreement to acquire technology from Henvil
          Corp.
          Ltd.(“Henvil”) and Steve Livneh, its principal, we acquired patent pending
          technology for new endoscopic disposable and reusable modular instruments
          (“the
          Product”). The innovative modular forceps are ergonomically designed to provide
          surgeons’ added comfort and improved safety while reducing per-procedure costs.
          The modular forceps offer a unique and simpler assembly process for laparoscopic
          procedures and is the first modular design for the arthroscopy market.
          Commercial prototypes have been developed and we have received FDA 510K
          clearance to market the modular laparoscopic instruments. We anticipate
          sales
          and production to commence towards the end of the second quarter 2007.
          The
          estimated annual worldwide market size for instruments of these categories
          is
          estimated to exceed $200 million. We received FDA 510K clearance to market
          the
          instrument.
        During
          fiscal 2006, pursuant to the agreement with Henvil and Steve Livneh, we
          purchased machinery and equipment in the approximate amount of $450,000.
          In
          addition, commencing with the year following the first sale or commercial
          delivery of the Product, Bovie shall pay to Henvil’s principal, Steve Livneh, an
          initial minimum royalty of the greater of $35,000 per year or 3% of adjusted
          gross revenues received from the sale and marketing of the instruments.
          Thereafter, Mr. Livneh will be paid a royalty equal to 2.5% of adjusted
          gross
          sales for the life of the patents issuable for the technology.
        As
          additional consideration for the acquisition of the technology, Mr. Livneh
          received 50,000 5-year restricted stock options to purchase Bovie common
          stock
          for each category of instrumentation (a total of 100,000 stock options)
          exercisable at the closing price of Bovie common stock on the American
          Stock
          Exchange on the date of execution of the Agreement, January 11, 2006. The
          options vested upon FDA clearance for marketing the product.
        Bovie
          Canada Products
        In
          October 2006 we acquired assets of Lican Developments LTD (Lican), an Ontario,
          Canada Corporation. The assets acquired include proprietary patent pending
          technologies, working prototypes in various stages of development and production
          equipment. Lican is a product development and manufacturing company focused
          on
          endoscopic devices (see Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
          Statements).
        Technologies
          in development include:
        | - | Tip-On-Tube®
                  a disposable tip technology complementary to Bovie’s previously acquired
                  and announced Modular Ergonomic Grip (MEG) forceps. Bovie acquired
                  the MEG
                  technology in January 2006 and recently received Food and Drug
                  Administration (FDA) clearance to market the
                  product. |

            | - | A
                  new surgical handle platform called the Modullion® that allows a plurality
                  of electrical and mechanical modes to be used in conjunction with
                  reusable
                  and disposable mono and bipolar cartridges and is applicable to
                  most
                  endoscopic surgeries. | 
| - | Seal-N-Cut®
                  a family of endoscopic instruments used in monopolar and bipolar
                  vessel
                  and tissue cutting and sealing. | 
Bovie
          formed the wholly owned subsidiary, Bovie Canada, which will continue the
          further development of these technologies as well as manufacturing the
          new
          devices and other Bovie products.
        Bovie
          Canada features state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment such as computerized
          multi-axis machinery, micro-laser welding equipment and electro-discharge
          drilling machinery.
        Endoscopic
          instruments (and their continued development), acquired in the January
          2006
          agreement with Henvil, have become part of the Bovie Canada subsidiary’s
          operations and are included in the Bovie Canada array of technologies.
          Patent
          applications have been filed and we anticipate the marketing and sales
          of
          products to begin in later part of second quarter.
        Boston
          Scientific Agreement
        In
          October 2006, we entered into an exclusive distribution and marketing agreement
          with Boston Scientific Corporation for the sale of an electrosurgery device
          for
          use in Boston Scienfitic’s oncology business. Pursuant to the agreement, Bovie
          will manufacture the product. The product will be co-labeled with both
          the
          Boston Scientific and Bovie names displayed. Additionally, the contract
          provides
          that we receive funding from Boston Scientific as part of start-up manufacturing
          costs.
        In
          addition to risks and uncertainties in the ordinary course of business,
          important risk factors are discussed in the sub-paragraphs below entitled
          Manufacturing, Marketing and Distribution, Competition, Government Regulation,
          Manufacturing, International Regulation, Patents and Trademarks, Liability
          and
          Insurance, and Adverse Weather.
        Manufacturing,
          Marketing and Distribution
        Bovie
          manufactures the majority of its products on its premises in St. Petersburg,
          Florida. Labor-intensive sub-assemblies and labor-intensive products may
          be
          out-sourced to our specification. Although we sell through distributors,
          we
          market our products through national trade journal advertising, direct
          mail,
          distributor sales representatives and trade shows, under the Bovie name,
          the
          Bovie/Aaron name and private label. Major distributors include Allegiance
          (a
          Cardinal Company), IMCO, McKesson Medical Surgical, Inc., NDC (Abco, Cida
          and
          Starline), Owens & Minor, and Physician Sales & Service. 
        We
          have
          two major OEM customers, Arthrex, Inc. and Medtronic, Inc., for which we
          manufacture products on a private label basis, pursuant to an agreement.
          The
          Arthrex, Inc agreement provides, among other things, that we will be reimbursed
          for our expenses in developing products according to Arthrex’s specifications.
          Arthrex owns the intellectual property, which was developed based on our
          technical know-how. We may not generally compete in Arthrex markets with
          the
          product developed. The agreement further provides that Arthrex is not obliged
          to
          place any orders for the product developed, but if it does seek to place
          orders,
          it must place them exclusively with us. The agreement also generally provides
          for product warranties, insurance, termination, and confidentiality. Subject
          to
          certain circumstances, the Arthrex Agreement has a termination date of
          November
          2007 (the “Termination Date”). However, the Agreement further provides that if
          neither party elects to terminate by May 2007, the Agreement shall extend
          for an
          additional 3-year period beyond the Termination Date. In fiscal 2006, Arthrex
          orders represented approximately 22% of our total revenues. As such, should
          Arthrex determine to reduce or cease placement of orders for the products,
          our
          business will likely be adversely affected.
5
            Our
          agreement with Medtronic, Inc. contains similar terms for reimbursement
          of
          expenses for developing products according to Medtronic’s specifications,
          product warranties, insurance, termination, and confidentiality. Medtronic
          also
          owns the intellectual property, which was developed based on our technical
          know-how. We may not generally compete with the products developed in
          Medtronic’s markets. In addition, under the agreement Medtronic is not obliged
          to place any orders for the product developed, but if it does seek to place
          orders, it must place them exclusively with us. In fiscal 2006, Medtronic
          orders
          represented approximately 11% of our total revenues. As such, should Medtronic
          determine to reduce or cease placement of orders for the products, our
          business
          will likely be adversely affected. 
        Competition
        The
          medical device industry is highly competitive. Many competitors in this
          industry
          are well established, do a substantially greater amount of business, and
          have
          greater financial resources and facilities than we do. 
        We
          believe we rank third in the field of electrosurgical generator manufacturing
          and we sell our products and compete with other manufacturers in various
          ways.
          In addition to advertising, attending trade shows and supporting our
          distribution channels, we strive to enhance product quality, improve user
          friendliness and expand product exposure. 
        We
          also
          compete by private labeling our products for major distributors under their
          label. This allows us to increase our position in the marketplace and thereby
          compete from two different approaches, our Aaron or Bovie label, and our
          customers’ private label. Our private label customers distribute our products
          under their name through their internal sales force. Our main competitors
          do not
          private label their products
        Lastly,
          we only sell our product through distributors. Since we never sell direct
          to the
          end user, we are participating with our distribution partners, and never
          competing with them. Many of the companies we compete with sell direct,
          thus
          competing directly with distributors they sometimes use. 
        Main
          competitors are Conmed, Valleylab (a division of Tyco) and Erbe Electromedizine,
          in the electrosurgery market, Xomed (a division of Medtronics), in the
          battery
          operated cautery market and Ethicon and U.S. Surgical in the endoscopic
          instrumentation market. We believe our competitive position did not change
          in
          2006.
        Government
          Regulation
        United
          States 
        The
          Company’s products and research and development activities are subject to
          regulation by the FDA and other regulatory bodies. FDA regulations govern,
          among
          other things, the following activities: 
        | ·   | Product
                    development. | 
| ·   | Product
                    testing. | 
| ·   | Product
                    labeling. | 
| ·   | Product
                    storage. | 
| ·   | Pre-market
                    clearance or approval. | 
| ·   | Advertising
                    and promotion. | 
| ·   | Product
                    traceability, and | 
| ·   | Product
                    indications. | 
In
          the
          United States, medical devices are classified on the basis of control deemed
          necessary to reasonably ensure the safety and effectiveness of the device.
          Class
          I devices are subject to general controls. These controls include registration
          and listing, labeling, pre-market notification and adherence to the FDA
          Quality
          System Regulation. Class II devices are subject to general and special
          controls.
          Special controls include performance standards, post market surveillance,
          patient registries and FDA guidelines. Class III devices are 
6
            those
          which must receive pre-market approval by the FDA to ensure their safety
          and
          effectiveness. Currently, we only manufacture Class I and Class II devices.
          Pre-market notification clearance must be obtained for some Class I and
          most
          Class II devices when the FDA does not require pre-market approval.
        Manufacturing
        Manufacturing
          and distribution of our products may be subject to continuing regulation
          by the
          FDA. We will also be subject to routine inspections by the FDA to determine
          compliance with the following:
        | ·   | Quality
                    System Regulations. | 
| ·   | Medical
                    device reporting regulations, and | 
| ·   | FDA
                    restrictions on promoting products for unapproved or off-label
                    uses. | 
In
          addition to regulations enforced by the FDA, we are also subject to regulations
          under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Environmental Protection
          Act
          and other federal, state and local regulations. 
        International
          Regulation
        To
          market
          products in the European Union and countries other than the United States,
          we
          must obtain regulatory approval similar to that required by the FDA. All
          of our
          medical devices are classified as Class III devices under the European
          Medical
          Devices directive. Therefore, we were required to obtain the “CE Mark”
certification from a “Notified Body” in one of the member countries in the
          European Union. The CE Mark certification is an international symbol of
          adherence to quality assurance standards and compliance with the applicable
          European Medical Devices Directive. 
        Approval
          by a Notified Body typically includes a detailed review of the following:
          
        | ·   | Description
                    of the device and its components, | 
| ·   | Safety
                    and performance of the device, | 
| ·   | Clinical
                    evaluations with respect to the device, | 
| ·   | Methods,
                    facilities and quality controls used to manufacture the device,
                    and | 
| ·   | Proposed
                    labeling for the device. | 
Manufacturing
          and distribution of a device is subject to continued surveillance by the
          Notified Body after CE Mark certification to ensure continued compliance
          with
          quality control and reporting requirements. 
        Pre-market
          notification clearance must be obtained for some Class I and most Class
          II
          devices when the FDA does not require pre-market approval. A pre-market
          approval
          application is required for most Class III devices. A pre-market approval
          application must be supported by valid scientific evidence to demonstrate
          the
          safety and effectiveness of the device. The pre-market approval application
          typically includes: 
        | ·   | Results
                    of bench and laboratory tests, animal studies, and clinical
                    studies, | 
| ·   | A
                    complete description of the device and its components, | 
| ·   | A
                    detailed description of the methods, facilities and controls
                    used to
                    manufacture the device, and proposed
                    labeling. | 
The
          approval process can be expensive, uncertain and lengthy. A number of devices
          for which FDA approval has been sought by other companies have never been
          approved for marketing. To date we have not experienced non-approval of
          any of
          our devices heretofore submitted to the FDA. 
        We
          obtained CE Mark certification to market our products in the European Union
          in
          1999. In addition to CE Mark certification, each member country of the
          European
          Union maintains the right to impose additional regulatory requirements.
          
7
            Outside
          of the European Union, regulations vary significantly from country to country.
          The time required to obtain approval to market products may be longer or
          shorter
          than that required in the United States or the European Union. Certain
          European
          countries outside of the European Union do recognize and give effect to
          the CE
          Mark certification. We are permitted to market and sell our products in
          those
          countries. 
        Patents
          and Trademarks
        We
          own a
          total of twelve outstanding patents but do not believe our current patents
          have
          a material effect on our operations. The useful lives of our existing patents
          have substantially diminished. We can give no assurance that competitors
          will
          not infringe on our patent rights or otherwise create similar or non-infringing
          competing products that are technically patentable in their own right.
          
        We
          have
          recently filed new patent applications for the Bovie Button, a snare device
          (GI
          accessory products), modular laparoscopic instruments, the output stage
          to our
          generator platform, and a Plasma Stream patent application relating to
          the
          plasma technology. We also plan to file new trademark applications relating
          to
          our other GI products later this year.
        Liability
          and Insurance
        The
          manufacture and sale of medical products entail significant risk of product
          liability claims. Bovie currently maintains product liability insurance
          with
          combined coverage limits of $10 million on claims made basis. There is
          no
          assurance that this coverage will be adequate to protect us from any possible
          liabilities we might incur in connection with the sale or testing of our
          products. In addition, we may need increased product liability coverage
          as
          products are commercialized. This insurance is expensive and in the future
          may
          not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. 
        Adverse
          Weather
        Our
          manufacturing facilities are located in St. Petersburg, Florida and could
          be
          affected due to multiple risks from fire, hurricanes and the like. In the
          recent
          past, Florida has sustained four (4) major hurricanes, the last of which
          occasioned damage to the roof of one of our buildings. We sustained flooding
          and
          loss of furniture and equipment. The damage was mildly disruptive to operations.
          Although we carry casualty insurance and business interruption insurance,
          future
          possible disruptions of operations due to hurricanes or fire could affect
          our
          ability to meet our commitments to our customers and impair important business
          relationships, the loss of which could adversely affect our operations
          and
          profitability.
        Research
          and Development
        The
          amount expended by us on research and development of our products during
          the
          years 2006, 2005 and 2004, totaled $1,048,175, $985,807 and $907,389
          respectively. We have not incurred any direct costs relating to environmental
          regulations or requirements. Our research and development costs for our
          products
          are not borne by our customers.
        Employees
        Presently
          Bovie has a total of approximately 161 full time employees. These consist
          of 5
          executive officers, 24 supervisory and managerial personnel, 8 sales, 124
          technical support administrative and factory employees.

            Executive
          Level Overview
        We
          are a
          medical device company engaged in the manufacturing and marketing of
          electrosurgical devices. Our medical products include a wide range of devices
          including electrosurgical generators and accessories, cauteries, medical
          lighting, nerve locators and other products.
        We
          divide
          our operations into three reportable business segments. 
Electrosurgical products, battery operated cauteries and other products.
          The electrosurgical segment sells electrosurgical products which include
          dessicators, generators, electrodes, electrosurgical pencils and various
          ancillary disposable products. These products are used in surgery for the
          cutting and coagulation of tissue. Battery operated cauteries are used
          for
          precise hemostasis (to stop bleeding) in ophthalmology and in other fields.
          Our
          other revenues are derived from nerve locators, disposable and reusable
          penlights, medical lighting, license fees, development fees and other
          miscellaneous income.
        Domestic
          sales accounted for 88% of total revenues in 2006 as compared to 83% in
          2005 and
          85% in 2004. Most of the Company’s products are marketed through medical
          distributors, which distribute to more than 6,000 hospitals and to doctors
          and
          other health-care facilities. During fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004, revenues
          from
          Arthrex, Inc., represented 22%, 15% and 29% of our revenues, respectively.
          For
          fiscal 2006 Medtronic, Inc. revenues represented 11% of our total revenues.
          No
          other single end customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenues for
          the
          fiscal 2006, 2005, or 2004.
        As
          a
          result of strong domestic sales International sales represented 12% of
          total
          revenues in 2006 as compared to 17% in 2005 and 15% in 2004. The Company’s
          products are sold in more than 150 countries through local dealers. Local
          dealer
          support is coordinated by sales and marketing personnel at the St. Petersburg,
          Florida facility. We have no manufacturing facilities branch offices other
          than
          the Florida facility. We sell our products to distributors that distribute
          them
          in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil,
          Canada, Chile, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, India, Italy,
          Japan,
          Korea, Mexico, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal,
          Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the United
          Kingdom,
          China, the CIS (former Soviet Union), Cyprus, Indonesia, Ireland, Korea,
          Latin
          America, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Turkey, and Vietnam. Our
          business
          is generally not seasonal in nature.
        Outlook
          for 2007
        Our
          acquisition of intellectual properties and certain assets of Lican Development,
          Ltd. during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 is a clear signal that a
          shift
          away from being highly reliant on OEM business and targeting substantially
          larger markets in electrosurgery is underway. This direction is expected
          to
          generate greater sales and higher operating margins, which long term should
          result in improved earnings.
        Planning
          ahead, Bovie Canada represents our enthusiasm in the future. Moving forward,
          management estimates that the MEG and Polaris™ hand held product lines will
          significantly increase future revenues. Additional new products in
          electrosurgery will continue to be featured during 2007 and 2008 as we
          move into
          new niche markets. For example, our ICON GI, together with accessory products,
          will mark our entry into the gastroenterology market while other new
          electrosurgery products are slated for other large niche markets.
        As
          a
          result of costs relating to our Canada facility, over the short term, we
          may
          experience an impact to our bottom line; however, we are confident that
          the
          acquisition will be beneficial to future revenues and our products are
          expected
          to achieve greater recognition in the growing and dynamic medical equipment
          industry. In addition, as these products enter various markets they can
          create
          opportunities for possible collaborative agreements with larger
          companies.
        Forecasting
          is admittedly a difficult task and it has always been our policy to adopt
          a
          conservative approach. Although our goals are ambitious, we believe they
          will be
          achieved. Our commitment is not just to sustain our level of growth but
          also to
          accelerate it in future years.
12
            The
          outlook is based on a number of assumptions, which are subject to change;
          some
          of which are outside our control. A variation in our assumptions may result
          in a
          change in this outlook.

The
          results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 show
          increased sales and increased profitability, as compared to the twelve
          months of
          2005. Our net sales increased 32% in 2006 to $26.7 million from $20.2 million
          in
          2005 ($6.5 million increase). An increase of 27% was seen in our electrosurgical
          product line along with increased sales of generators and accessories to
          Arthrex. Arthrex net sales amounted to $6.1 million for 2006, an increase
          of
          $3.1 million or 103% from $3.0 million in 2005. Approximately 6000 generator
          units were shipped in 2006 as compared to 4,600 for 2005. No sales of one
          particular electrosurgical product dominates the number of units sold.
          We
          instituted price increases of 3% on cauteries and other products in
          2006.
        Domestic
          sales were $23.4 million for 2006 an increase of 39% from $16.8 million
          for
          2005. International sales were $3.3 million for 2006 a slight decrease
          of $0.1
          million from $3.4 million for 2005. 
        Cost
          of
          sales represented 60% of sales in 2006 compared to 63% of sales in 2005
          . The 3%
          lower cost of sales in 2006 was mainly attributable to a decrease of 5.9%
          in
          indirect costs as a percentage of sales and a decrease in labor cost as
          a
          percentage of sales of 2.44%. As our sales have increased, our indirect
          costs
          and labor costs as a dollar amount have not increased in the same manner
          and
          have remained relatively constant. Material cost as a percentage of sales
          increased slightly from 32% for fiscal 2005 to 33% for fiscal 2006.
        Research,
          development and engineering expenses represented 3.9% and 4.9% of sales
          for 2006
          and 2005, respectively. These expenses decreased by 1.0% as a percentage
          of
          sales in 2006 but increased to $1,048,174, an increase over 2005 spending
          of
          $62,260. The higher spending level is the result of development costs in
          advance
          of our proposed product launches in 2007. New products under development
          are the
          modular forceps instruments, suture removal device, ICON GI Device, plasma
          technology and various improvements to our line of electrosurgical
          generators.
        Research
          and development for the J. Plasma device decreased from $161,191 in 2005
          to
          $138,913 in 2006, a decreased of 13.8% or $22,278.
14
            Professional
          fees decreased slightly from $527,346 in 2005 to $519,861 in 2006, a decrease
          of
          $7,485 or 1.4%.
        Salaries
          and related costs increased by 32.4% from $1.93 million to $2.56 million.
          The
          increase was mainly attributable to additional employees and annual salary
          increases needed to foster the growth of the company in various
          areas.
        Selling,
          general and administrative expenses increased by .2 million or 3.7% to
          $3.7
          million in 2006 as compared to $3.5 million for 2005. 
        Net
          interest earned increased by $62,675 during fiscal 2006 when compared to
          fiscal
          2005 as a result of our higher cash balances being invested and yielding
          higher
          interest returns. 
        The
          effective income tax rate was 36% for 2006 and 2005. There was also a tax
          loss
          carryover benefit of 35.6 % for 2006 and 36% for 2005. The difference between
          the income tax and the tax loss carryover benefit for 2006 is $47,567,
          an
          estimated amount for the AMT (alternative minimum tax).
        In
          October of 2006, we acquired assets of Lican Development LTD (see Note
          10 of
          Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) and formed a wholly owned
          subsidiary, Bovie Canada ULC. Fourth quarter 2006 net income excluding
          Bovie
          Canada was $481,528. Fourth quarter 2006 consolidated net income was $423,307
          or
          a decrease of 13.8%. We anticipate this investment to be accretive in
          2007.
        Net
          earnings for fiscal 2006 increased 561% to $2.7 million from $0.4 million
          in
          2005. Basic net earnings per share increased by 533% to $0.19 in 2006 from
          $0.03
          in 2005. Diluted earning per share in 2006 was $0.16 as compared to $.03
          for
          diluted earnings per share for 2005.
        We
          sell
          our products through distributors both overseas and in US markets. New
          distributors are contacted through responses to our advertising in international
          and domestic medical journals and domestic or international trade shows.
          
        We
          have
          arrangements with various sales representatives to develop markets for
          our new
          products and to maintain customer relations. Our current representatives
          receive
          an average commission of approximately 4% of sales in their market areas.
          In
          2006 and 2005, commissions paid were $592,159 and $442,373 respectively,
          an
          increase of 33.8%. The increase was due to increased sales upon which we
          pay
          commissions. 
        An
          adequate supply of raw materials is available from both domestic and
          international suppliers. The relationship between our suppliers and us
          is
          generally limited to individual purchase order agreements, supplemented
          by
          contractual arrangements with key vendors to ensure availability of certain
          products. We have developed multiple sources of supply where possible.
          
        In
          order
          to provide additional working capital, we have secured a $1.5 millions
          credit
          facility with a local commercial bank. This facility is payable on demand.
          For
          the year ended December 31, 2006, we had zero funds drawn down on this
          credit
          facility.
        Our
          ten
          largest customers accounted for approximately 73% of net revenues for 2006
          as
          compared to 65% in 2005. For fiscal year December 31, 2006, our ten largest
          trade receivables accounted for approximately 79% of receivables as compared
          to
          66% for fiscal 2005. In 2006, two customers accounted for greater than
          10% of
          our sales, Arthrex for 22% and Medtronic for 10.5%. In 2005, Arthrex was
          our
          only customer that accounted for over 10% of total revenues.

Our
          net
          sales decreased 1% in 2005 to $20.2 million from $20.5 million in 2004
          ($.3
          million decrease). Net sales remained relatively constant across our product
          lines. Approximately 4,500 generator units were shipped in 2004 as compared
          to
          4,600 for 2005. No sales of one particular electrosurgical product dominates
          the
          number of units sold. We increased prices for our products in 2005 by an
          average
          of 3.5%
        Arthrex
          sales of generators and accessories decreased 2.9 million or 50% from 5.9
          million in 2004 to 3.0 million in 2005. The decrease was offset by increase
          of
          generators sold through distributors. 
        Domestic
          sales were $16.7 million for 2005, representing a decrease of 4% as a result
          of
          decreased shipments of generators and accessories to Arthrex. International
          sales were $3.5 million for 2005, representing an increase of 15% as a
          result of
          higher shipments of generators. Excluding the impact of foreign currency,
          international sales increased $.45 million in 2005.
        Cost
          of
          sales represented 63% of sales in 2005 compared to 61% in 2004. The 2%
          higher
          cost of sales in 2005 was mainly attributable to the increased payroll
          and
          overhead. 
        Research,
          development and engineering expenses represented 4.9% and 4.4% of sales
          for 2005
          and 2004, respectively. These expenses increased 1% in 2005 to $985,807,
          an
          increase over 2004 spending of $78,418. The higher spending level is the
          result
          of development spending in advance of our proposed product launches in
          2006. New
          products under development by us are the suture removal device, GI Icon
          gastrointestinal device and various improvements to our line of electrosurgical
          generators.
        Research
          and development for the J. Plasma device increased from $39,286 in 2004
          to
          $161,190 in 2005, an increase of 310% or $121,904.
        Professional
          fees increased from $415,606 in 2004 to $447,346 in 2005, an increase of
          $31,740
          or 8%. Professional fees mostly increased as a result of the costs of filing
          and
          S-3 registration statement.
16
            Salaries
          and related costs increased by 1.7% from $1.98 million to $2.01 million.
          The
          number of sales and administrative employees and benefits remained approximately
          the same in 2005 as compared with 2004.
        Selling,
          general and administrative expenses increased by .3% million or 9.4% in
          2004 to
          $3.6 million in 2005. The 9.4% increase in selling, general and administrative
          expenses is primarily due to an increase in commission expense, increased
          general liability insurance, and increased repairs and maintenance.
        Net
          interest expense increased to $22,703 in 2005 from $15,090 in 2004, primarily
          as
          a result of a higher interest rate on our outstanding mortgage. An increase
          from
          4.75% to 7.5% during 2005.
        The
          effective income tax rate was 36% in 2005 and 2004. There was also a tax
          loss
          carryover benefit of 36.2% in 2004. An estimate of alternative minimum
          tax was
          $10,000 in 2005 and AMT paid for 2004 was $22,015. Income from operations
          was
          $403,968 in 2005 as compared to $1,268,556 in 2004. A decrease of 68% or
          $864,588. The main reasons for the decrease in earning was higher research
          and
          development of $200,322, a decrease in gross profit of $295,008 and an
          increase
          in SG&A of $303,972. 
        In
          October 2004, a hurricane tore a portion of the roof off the office facility
          at
          7100 30th
          Avenue
          North, St. Petersburg, Florida causing extensive water damage to that portion
          of
          the building. The cost of the building allocated to the loss was $63,749
          of
          which there was depreciation of $12,278 leaving a net cost of $51,471.
          As per
          Financial Accounting Standard Board interpretation number 30 we have recognized
          a gain of $245,264 from the non-monetary asset being involuntarily converted
          to
          a monetary asset through the payment by the insurance company of $296,735.
          This
          is reflected as other income on the consolidated statement of
          income.
        Net
          earnings decreased 73% to $.4 million from $1.5 million in 2004. Basic
          net
          earnings per share, decreased by 73% to $.03 in 2005 from $.11 in 2005.
          Diluted
          earnings per share in 2005 was $.03 as compared to $.09 for diluted earnings
          per
          share for 2004.
        We
          sell
          our products through distributors both overseas and in US markets. New
          distributors are contacted through responses to our advertising in international
          and domestic medical journals and domestic or international trade shows.
          
        We
          have
          arrangements with various sales representatives to develop markets for
          our new
          products and to maintain customer relations. Our current representatives
          receive
          an average commission of approximately 4% of sales in their market areas.
          In
          2005 and 2004, commissions paid were $442,373 and $367,299 respectively,
          an
          increase of 20%. The increase was due to increased sales upon which we
          pay
          commissions. This increase was offset by the decrease in OEM sales.
        Our
          ten
          largest customers accounted for approximately 65% of net revenues for 2005
          as
          compared to 70% in 2004. For both years December 31, 2005 and 2004, our
          ten
          largest trade receivables accounted for approximately 66% of outstanding
          receivables in both years. In 2005 and 2004, one customer accounted for
          15% and
          29% of total sales, respectively.
        17
            Product
          Development
        Most
          of
          the Company’s products and product improvements have been developed internally.
          Funds for this development have come from internal cash flow and the issuance
          of
          common stock upon the exercise of stock options. The Company maintains
          close
          working relationships with physicians and medical personnel in hospitals
          and
          universities who assist in product research and development. New and improved
          products play a critical role in the Company’s sales growth. The Company
          continues to place emphasis on the development of proprietary products
          and
          product improvements to complement and expand its existing product lines.
          The
          Company has a centralized research and development focus, with its one
          manufacturing location responsible for new product development and product
          improvements. Our research, development and engineering units at the
          manufacturing location maintain relationships with distribution locations
          and
          customers in order to provide an understanding of changes in the market
          and
          product needs. During 2005 and into 2006 we invested in the J Plasma Technology,
          the Suture Removal Technology, the Gastrointestinal “GI” device and undertook
          development of Cardio and Urological Electrosurgical devices for a contractual
          partner. The suture removal device, the GI device, modular laparoscopic
          instruments and the Bovie Button are being marketed, although no significant
          sales are anticipated until 2007. The ongoing cost for this development
          will be
          paid from operating cash flows.
        In
          the
          next year we do not contemplate any material purchase or acquisition of
          assets
          that our ordinary cash flow and or credit line would be unable to
          sustain.
        We
          believe that Bovie has the financial resources needed to meet business
          requirements in the foreseeable future, including capital expenditures
          needed
          for the expansion of our manufacturing site, working capital requirements,
          and
          product development programs, subject to Bovie maintaining compliance with
          our
          credit facility.
        Non-Medical
          Products
        We
          discontinued our non-medical product line in 2003 by selling our inventory
          at
          cost, and licensing our customer list and manufacturing technology to our
          largest customer in that field for $500,000 payable in equal installments
          over 5
          years. The transaction is being accounted for as a licensing agreement
          over five
          years and in 2005 and 2004 we received income of $100,000 and $100,000,
          respectively, from the licensing.
        Reliance
          on Collaborative, Manufacturing and Selling Arrangements
        We
          are
          dependent on certain contractual OEM customers for product development,
          wherein
          we are to provide the manufacturing of the product developed. However,
          the
          customer has no legal obligation to purchase the developed products. Should
          the
          collaborative customer fail to give us purchase orders for the product
          after
          development, our future business and value of related assets could be negatively
          affected. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that a collaborative customer
          may give sufficient high priority to our products. In addition, disagreements
          or
          disputes may arise between Bovie and its contractual customers, which could
          adversely affect production of our products. We also have informal collaborative
          arrangements with two foreign suppliers where in we request the development
          of
          certain items and components and we purchase them pursuant to purchase
          orders.
          Our purchase orders are never more than one year and are supported by orders
          from our customers.
        In
          January 2006 we entered into an agreement to acquire patents and technology
          for
          endoscopic disposable and reusable modular instruments, requiring us to
          purchase
          equipment, tools and molds valued at $450,000. As part of the agreement,
          we
          retained the services of the seller and its principal at rate of $30,000
          per
          month for one year, which ended on December 31, 2006, to develop commercial
          prototypes for marketing. The seller, Steve Livneh, as of October 1, 2006
          accepted an employment position with Bovie Medical.

            Liquidity
          and Capital Resources
        Our
          working capital at December 31, 2006 was $8.1 million compared to $5.5
          million
          at December 31, 2005. Accounts receivable days sales outstanding were 42
          days
          and 45 days at December 31, 2006 and 2005 respectively. Days sales in inventory
          increased 11 days to 109 days at December 31, 2006 from 98 days at December
          31,
          2005. The higher days sales in inventory is due to increased inventories
          resulting from additional orders to be shipped and products to be manufactured
          under OEM contracts.
        In
          fiscal
          2006, net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $3.0 million
          compared to a net cash applied of $.2 million to operations in 2005. The
          increase in cash from operations in 2006 compared to the prior year is
          primarily
          due to the increase in sales volume. 
        Net
          cash
          used in investing activities was $1.1 million during fiscal 2006 for the
          purchase of fixed assets, an increase of $0.2 million compared to cash
          used in
          fiscal 2005. 
        Net
          cash
          provided from financing activities was $1.15 million for fiscal 2006, an
          increase of $1.05 million compared to fiscal 2005. Total borrowing declined
          by
          $186,462 and employees and others exercised options and purchased shares
          amounting to $1.3 million.
        We
          had
          $3.0 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2006. We also
          had
          outstanding short-term borrowings totaling $161,948 at that date. We believe
          our
          cash on hand, as well as anticipated cash flows from operations, will be
          sufficient to fund future operating capital requirements, future manufacturing
          facility construction and other capital expenditures and future acquisitions
          to
          supplement our current product offerings. Should additional funds be required,
          we have $1.5 million of additional borrowing capacity available under our
          existing credit facility.
        The
          Company’s future contractual obligations for agreements with initial terms
          greater than one year, including agreements to purchase materials in the
          normal
          course of business, are summarized as follows (in thousands):

        Our
          future results of operations and the other forward-looking statements contained
          herein, particularly the statements regarding growth in the medical products
          industry, capital spending, research and development, and marketing and
          general
          and administrative expenses, involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
          In
          addition to the factors discussed above, there are other factors that could
          cause actual results to differ materially, such as business conditions
          and the
          general economies; competitive factors including rival 
19
            manufacturers’
          availability of components at reasonable prices; risk of nonpayment of
          accounts
          receivable; risks associated with foreign operations; and litigation involving
          intellectual property and consumer issues. 
        We
          believe that we have the product mix, facilities, personnel, competitive
          edge,
          operating cash flows and financial resources for business success in the
          immediate (1 year) future and distant future (after 1 year), but future
          revenues, costs, margins, product mix and profits are all subject to the
          influence of a number of factors, as discussed above.
        Critical
          Accounting Estimates
        We
          have
          adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial
          statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
          (GAAP) in
          the United States of America (U.S.). Our most significant accounting policies
          are disclosed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.
        The
          preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with
          U.S.
          GAAP, requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
          reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
          Our
          estimates and assumptions, including those related to bad debts, inventories,
          intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, minority investment,
          legal
          proceedings, research and development, warranty obligations, product liability,
          sales returns and discounts, and income taxes are updated as appropriate,
          which
          in most cases is at least quarterly. We base our estimates on historical
          experience, or various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under
          the
          circumstances and the results form the basis for making judgments about
          the
          reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results
          may materially differ from these estimates.
        Estimates
          are considered to be critical if they meet both of the following criteria:
          (1)
          the estimate requires assumptions about material matters that are uncertain
          at
          the time the accounting estimates are made, and (2) other materially different
          estimates could have been reasonably made or material changes in the estimates
          are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Our critical accounting
          estimates include the following:
        Allowance
          for doubtful accounts
        We
          maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses in the
          collection of accounts receivable. We make estimates regarding the future
          ability of our customers to make required payments based on historical
          credit
          experience and expected future trends. If actual customer financial conditions
          are less favorable than projected by management, additional accounts receivable
          write-offs may be necessary, which could unfavorably affect future operating
          results.
        Inventory
          Reserves
        We
          maintain reserves for excess and obsolete inventory resulting from the
          potential
          inability to sell our products at prices in excess of current carrying
          costs.
          The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, with new products
          and
          surgical procedures introduced on an ongoing basis. Such marketplace changes
          may
          cause our products to become obsolete. We make estimates regarding the
          future
          recoverability of the costs of these products and record a provision for
          excess
          and obsolete inventories based on historical experience, and expected future
          trends. If actual product life cycles, product demand or acceptance of
          new
          product introductions are less favorable than projected by management,
          additional inventory write-downs may be required, which could unfavorably
          affect
          future operating results.
20
            Impairment
          of goodwill and other long-lived assets
        We
          review
          long-lived assets which are held and used, including fixed assets and purchased
          intangible assets, for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate
          that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Such evaluations
          compare the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash
          flows
          expected to be generated by the asset over its expected useful life and
          are
          significantly impacted by estimates of future prices and volumes for our
          products, capital needs, economic trends and other factors which are inherently
          difficult to forecast. If the asset is considered to be impaired, we record
          an
          impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the
          asset
          exceeds its fair value determined by either a quoted market price, if any,
          or a
          value determined by utilizing a discounted cash flow technique. Occasionally,
          we
          may hold certain assets for sale. In those cases, the assets are reclassified
          on
          our balance sheet from long-term to current, and the carrying value of
          such
          assets are reviewed and adjusted each period thereafter to the fair value
          less
          expected cost to sell.
        We
          test
          our goodwill for impairment annually as of the first day of our fourth
          fiscal
          quarter and in interim periods if certain events occur indicating that
          the
          carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. The goodwill impairment test
          is a
          two-step process. The first step of the impairment analysis compares our
          fair
          value to our net book value. In determining fair value, the accounting
          guidance
          allows for the use of several valuation methodologies, although it states
          quoted
          market prices are the best evidence of fair value. If the fair value is
          less
          than the net book value, the second step of the analysis compares the implied
          fair value of our goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount
          of
          goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, we recognize an impairment loss
          equal
          to that excess amount.
        Share-based
          Compensation 
         Under
          the Company’s stock option plan, options to purchase Common Shares of the
          Company may be granted to key employees, officers and directors of the
          Company
          and its affiliates by the Board of Directors. The Company accounts for
          stock
          options in accordance with SFAS Statement 123 (R) with option expense
          amortized over the vesting period based on the binomial lattice option-pricing
          model fair value on the grant date. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) on
          January 1, 2006. 
        (See
          Note
          2. Significant Accounting Policies)
        Income
          Taxes
        We
          operate in multiple tax jurisdictions both inside and outside the United
          States.
          Accordingly, management must determine the appropriate allocation of income
          to
          each of these jurisdictions. Tax audits associated with the allocation
          of this
          income and other complex issues may require an extended period of time
          to
          resolve and may result in income tax adjustments if changes to the income
          allocation are required between jurisdictions with different tax rates.
          Because
          tax adjustments in certain jurisdictions can be significant, we record
          accruals
          representing our best estimate of the probable resolution of these matters.
          To
          the extent additional information becomes available, such accruals are
          adjusted
          to reflect the revised estimated probable outcome.
        Other
          Matters
        We
          distribute our products throughout the world. As a result, our financial
          results
          could be significantly affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency
          exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Our operating
          results are primarily exposed to changes in exchange rates among the United
          States dollar and European currencies, in particular the euro and the British
          pound. When the United States dollar weakens against foreign currencies,
          the
          dollar value of sales denominated in foreign currencies increases. When
          the
          United States dollar strengthens, the opposite situation occurs. We manufacture
          our products in the United States, China, Canada and Bulgaria and incur
          the
          costs to manufacture in US dollars. This worldwide deployment of factories
          serves to partially mitigate the impact of the high costs of manufacturing
          in
          the US.

            Recent
          Accounting Pronouncements
        New
          Accounting Pronouncements: In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154,
          "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, - a replacement of APB Opinion
          No. 20
          and FASB Statement No.3". The Statement establishes, unless impracticable,
          retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change
          in
          accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements
          specific
          to the newly adopted accounting principle. The provisions of this Statement
          are
          effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal
          years
          beginning after December 15, 2005. Early adoption is permitted for accounting
          changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after
          the date
          this Statement was issued. The Company does not believe that the adoption
          of
          this Statement in fiscal 2007 will have a material impact on the Company's
          financial position or result of operations. 
        In
          February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid
          Financial Instruments - and amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140".
          This
          Statement, among other things, allows a preparer to elect fair value measurement
          of instruments in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have to be
          bifurcated. The provisions of this Statement are effective for all financial
          instruments acquired or issued in fiscal years beginning after September
          15,
          2006. Early adoption is permitted for instruments that an entity holds
          at the
          date of adoption on an instrument-by-instrument basis. The Company does
          not
          believe that the adoption of this Statement in fiscal 2007 will have a
          material
          impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
          operations. 
        In
          March
          2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial
          Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140" This Statement amends SFAS
          No.
          140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
          Extinguishments of Liabilities", with respect to the accounting for separately
          recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The provisions of
          this
          Statement are effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued
          in
          fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. Early adoption is permitted
          for
          instruments that an entity holds at the date of adoption on an
          instrument-by-instrument basis. The Company does not believe that the adoption
          of this Statement is fiscal 2007 will have material impact on the Company's
          consolidated financial position or results of operations. 
        In
          July
          2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty
          in
          Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48")
          which
          prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute, as well as
          criteria for subsequently recognizing, derecognizing and measuring uncertain
          tax
          positions for financial statement purposes. FIN 48 also requires expanded
          disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes assets and
          liabilities. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
          15,
          2006 and is required to be recognized as a change in accounting principle
          through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning
          of the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact
          of
          adopting the provisions of FIN 48 in fiscal 2007. 
        ITEM
          7A. Quantitative
          and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
        Our
          financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.
          We are exposed to interest rate risk on our short-term investments. The
          primary
          objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at
          the
          same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve
          this objective, we invest in highly liquid overnight money market investments.
          To minimize our exposure due to adverse shifts in interest rates, we invest
          in
          short-term overnight securities. If a 10% change in interest rates were
          to have
          occurred on December 31, 2006, this change would not have had a material
          effect on the fair value of our investment portfolio as of that date. Due
          to the
          short holding period of our investments, we have concluded that we do not
          have a
          material financial market risk exposure.

        (a)
          Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
        An
          evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Bovie’s
          disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)
          and 15d-15(e) as of December 31, 2006 was carried out under the supervision
          and
          with the participation of Bovie’s management, including the President and Chief
          Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (“the Certifying Officers”).
          Based on that evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that Bovie’s
          disclosure controls and procedures are effective. 
        Disclosure
          controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required
          to be
          disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange
          Act is
          recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
          in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
          without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information

          Corporation as a business and public relations consultant on a month-to-month
          basis at the average monthly fee of $2,000. As of January 1, 2006 Mr. Kromer
          accepted an employment position of internal auditor with the
          company.
        There
          have been no changes in the pricing of any options previously or currently
          awarded. 
        In
          January 2004, we extended employment contracts with certain of our officers
          for
          six years. The employment agreements provide, among other things, that
          the
          Executive may be terminated as follows:
        | (a) | Upon
                  the death of the Executive and the Executive’s estate shall be paid the
                  basic annual compensation due the Employee pro-rated through the
                  date of
                  termination. | 
| (b) | By
                  the Resignation of the Executive at any time upon at least thirty
                  (30)
                  days prior written notice to Bovie; and Bovie shall be obligated
                  to pay
                  the Employee the basic annual compensation due him pro-rated to
                  the
                  effective date of termination, | 
| (c) | By
                  Bovie, for cause if during the term of the Employment Agreement
                  the
                  Employee violates the provisions of Paragraph 12 hereof, or is
                  found
                  guilty in a court of law of any crime of moral
                  turpitude. | 
| (d) | By
                  Bovie, without cause, with the majority approval of the Board of
                  Directors, at any time upon at least thirty (30) days prior written
                  notice
                  to the Executive: and Bovie shall be obligated to pay the Executive
                  compensation currently in effect including all bonuses, accrued
                  or
                  prorate, and expenses up to the date of termination. Thereafter,
                  for the
                  period remaining under the contract, Bovie shall pay the Executive
                  the
                  salary then in effect at the  | 
29
            time
          of
          termination payable weekly. Employee shall not have to account for other
          compensation other sources or otherwise mitigate his damages due to such
          termination.
        | (e) | If
                  Bovie terminates the agreement, without cause, or fails to meet
                  its
                  obligations to the Executive on a timely basis, or if there is
                  a change in
                  the control of Bovie, the Executive may elect to terminate his
                  employment
                  agreement. Upon any such termination or breach of any of its obligations
                  under the Employment Agreement, Bovie shall pay the Executive a
                  lump sum
                  severance equal to three times the annual salary and bonus in effect
                  the
                  month preceding such termination or breach as well as any other
                  sums which
                  may be due under the terms of the Employment Agreement up to the
                  date of
                  termination. |

        Recent
          Developments
        In
          1998,
          Maxxim Medical Corporation (“Maxxim”) a then publicly owned corporation,
          acquired 3,000,000 shares of our common stock from us pursuant to a certain
          agreement in exchange for assets and equipment, the ownership of the trade
          name
“Bovie” and other future business to be conducted between our corporations. As
          part of the agreement, Maxxim was granted rights to demand that we register
          the
          shares with the SEC. Maxxim later became a privately owned corporation.
          Maxxim
          allegedly sold the Bovie common stock to ACMI Corporation (“ACMI”) in 2000.
          After a continuing dispute between Maxxim and ACMI, in May 2004 a bankruptcy
          court declared ACMI the owner of the 3,000,000 Bovie shares
        In
          September 2004, ACMI Corporation privately sold the 3,000,000 shares to
          a
          limited number of sophisticated accredited investors. As part of the sale,
          ACMI
          Corporation assigned the demand registration rights to the accredited investors.
          Shortly after completion of the sale by ACMI Corporation, the accredited
          investors exercised their registration rights and demanded that we file
          the
          registration statement with the SEC covering the 3,000,000 shares of common
          stock. We filed the registration statement as requested for the
32
            3,000,000
          shares of common stock and listed the accredited investors as selling
          stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders”). The registration statement became
          effective in September 2005. All proceeds from any sale of shares of our
          Company
          pursuant to the registration statement are for the benefit of the Selling
          Stockholders and not Bovie. However, pursuant to separate agreement with
          ACMI
          and the Selling Stockholders, we are in the process of being reimbursed
          for our
          legal, accounting and other expenses incurred in connection with the offering.
          
        In
          2005,
          the Executive Officers and directors were awarded a total of 225,000
          non-qualified options to purchase our Common Stock at an exercise price
          of $2.25
          per share expiring on May 5, 2015. (See Executive Compensation)

          director, Alfred V. Greco Esq., the principal of Alfred Greco PLLC, a partner

          approved 2-year extensions of the outstanding Employment Agreements of
          Messrs.
          Makrides, Citronowicz and Saron. Such extensions are historically consistent
          with prior pattern of extensions in past years.

          director, George Kromer, served as a consultant previous to his employment
          with

          for 2005

        Two
          relatives of the chief operating officer of the Company are employed by
          the
          Company. Yechiel Tsitrinovich, an engineering consultant received compensation
          for 2006 and 2005 of $79,776 and $79,776 respectively. The other relative,
          Arik
          Zoran, is an employee of the Company in charge of the engineering department.
          He
          had a two-year contract providing for a salary of $90,000 per year plus
          living
          expenses and benefits which has been extended. For 2006 and 2005 he was
          paid
          $162,562 and $157,045, which includes living expenses and benefits. The
          Company
          is attempting at this time to secure a permanent work visa for Mr. Zoran.

          Audit-Related fees consist of fees billed for assurance and related services
          that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of
          Bovie’s
          consolidated financial statements and are not reported under “Audit Fees”.
          During 2005 services related to the filing of a Form S3 with the SEC were
          performed.
        (3)
          Tax
          fees consist of fees billed for professional services rendered for tax
          compliance, tax advice and tax planning (domestic and international). These
          services include assistance regarding federal, state and international
          tax
          compliance, acquisitions and international tax planning.
        (4)
          All
          other fees consist of fees for products and services other than the services
          reported above. In the past the Board of Directors had considered the role
          of
          Bloom & Co., LLP in providing certain tax services to Bovie and had
          concluded that such services were compatible with Bloom & Co., LLP’s
          independence as our auditors. In addition, since the effective date of
          the SEC
          rules stating that an auditor is not independent of an audit client if
          the
          services it provides to the client are not appropriately approved (which
          was
          previously done by the Board of Directors). Now the Audit Committee will
          pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the
          independent auditors. 
        Audit
          Committee
        The
          Audit
          Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of services provided
          by the
          independent auditors, pursuant to which it may pre-approve any service
          consistent with applicable law, rules and regulations. Under the policy,
          the
          Audit Committee may also delegate authority to pre-approve certain specified
          audit or permissible non-audit services to one or more of its members,
          including
          the Chairman. A member to whom pre-approval authority has been delegated
          must
          report its pre-approval decisions, if any, to the Audit Committee at its
          next
          meeting, and any such pre-approvals must specify clearly in writing the
          services
          and fees approved. Unless the Audit Committee determines otherwise, the
          term for
          any service pre-approved by a member to whom pre-approval authority has
          been
          delegated is twelve months.
        Prior
          to
          September 29, 2003 the audit committee consisted of the board of directors.
          On
          September 29, 2003 the board of directors appointed Brian Madden, George
          Kromer
          and Andrew Makrides as audit committee members. Mr. Madden was considered
          audit
          committee financial expert until Mr. Michael Norman CPA was made a board
          member
          on September 23, 2004. The audit committee is presently made up of three
          members, George Kromer (Chairman), Michael Norman, CPA (Financial Expert)
          and
          Brian Madden.

To
          the
          Board of Directors
        and
          Shareholders of
        Bovie
          Medical Corporation
        We
          have
          audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bovie Medical
          Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated
          statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the
          three fiscal years in the period ended December 31, 2006. These financial
          statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our
          responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
          on
          our audits. 
        We
          conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
          Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
          we plan
          and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
          financial
          statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining,
          on a
          test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
          statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
          used and
          significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
          financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
          reasonable basis for our opinion. 
        In
          our
          opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
          all
          material respects, the consolidated financial position of Bovie Medical
          Corporation as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results
          of
          its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity
          with
          accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

          (DECREASE) IN CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
        FOR
          THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006, 2005 AND 2004
        SUPPLEMENTAL
          SCHEDULE OF NON-CASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES:
        FOR
          THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006, 2005 AND 2004:
        There
          were three non-cash transactions in fiscal 2006. The first was $41,098
          for stock based compensation to employees. The second was $63,301, which
          was the
          calculated fair value of stock options given as consideration in the purchase
          of
          assets under the Henvil agreement, of which $20,886 was expensed for the
          twelve
          months of 2006.
          The
          third was a liability for purchase assets of $480,150 which
          was the calculated fair value of 150,000 restricted common stock shares
          given as consideration in the purchase of assets under the Lican
          agreement.
        The
          fair
          value of the Henvil agreement options were estimated on the grant date
          using the
          binomial lattice option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected
          volatility of 25%, expected term of 5 years, risk-free interest rate of
          5.0%,
          and expected dividend yield of 0%. Expected volatility is based on a weighted
          average of the historical volatility of the Company's stock and peer company
          volatility. The average expected life was calculated using the simplified
          method
          under SAB 107. The risk-free rate is based on the rate of U.S. Treasury
          zero-coupon issues.
        The
          fair
          value of the Lican agreement 150,000 restricted shares were estimated on
          the
          grant date using the market close price of the contract date with adjustments
          against the total value for contingencies such as, but not limited to,
          a one
          year holding period related to each of the six targeted milestones for
          the IP’s,
          resulted in discounts in the amount of approximately 80%.   Based
          on available information the Company has determined that the outcome of
          the specified conditions is determinable beyond reasonable
          doubt.
        During
          the fiscal 2006, we purchased patent pending rights and an exclusive license
          for
          technology. The patent and technology rights were valued at $306,503 of
          which
          the full amount had been paid as of December 31, 2006. 
        There
          were no non-cash transactions reported in 2005.
        In
          October 2004, a hurricane tore a portion of the roof off the office facility
          at
          7100 30th
          Avenue
          North, St. Petersburg, Florida causing extensive water damage to that portion
          of
          the building. The cost of the building allocated to the loss was $63,749
          of
          which there was depreciation of $12,278 leaving a net cost of $51,471.
          As per
          Financial Accounting Standard Board interpretation number 30, we have recognized
          a gain of $245,264 from the non-monetary asset being involuntarily converted
          to
          a monetary asset through the payment by the insurance company of
          $296,735.

        NOTE
          1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
        Bovie
          Medical Corporation (“the Company” or “Bovie”) was incorporated in 1982, under
          the laws of the State of Delaware and is a medical device company engaged
          in the
          manufacturing and marketing of electrosurgical devices. Our medical products
          include a wide range of devices including electrosurgical generators and
          accessories, cauteries, medical lighting, nerve locators and other
          products.
        NOTE
          2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
        Use
          of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
        The
          preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally
          accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
          assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
          and
          disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
          statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
          reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
        Consolidated
          Financial Statements
        The
          accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
          Bovie
          Medical Corporation and its two wholly owned subsidiaries Aaron Medical
          Industries, Inc., and Bovie Canada ULC. Intercompany transaction accounts
          have
          been eliminated in consolidation.
        The
          equity method of accounting is used when the Company has a 20% to 50% interest
          in other companies. Under the equity method, original investments are recorded
          at cost and adjusted by the company's share of undistributed earnings or
          losses
          of these companies. 
        Cash
          and cash equivalents
        Holdings
          of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when
          purchased, are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount reported
          in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair
          values.
          The amount of federally insured cash deposits was $100,000 as of December
          31,

        Inventories
          and Repair Parts
        Inventories
          are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally
          on the
          average actual cost method. Finished goods and work-in-process inventories
          include material, labor, and overhead costs. Factory overhead costs are
          allocated to inventory manufactured in-house based upon cost of materials.
          
        Bovie
          monitors usage reports to determine if the carrying value of any items
          should be
          adjusted due to lack of demand for the item. Bovie adjusts down the inventory
          for estimated obsolescence (inventory judged to be unused in the manufacturing
          process for 2 years and eventually discarded) or unmarketable inventory
          equal to
          the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value
          based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual
          market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management,
          additional inventory write-down may be required.
        Inventory
          at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was as follows: 
        |  |  | 2006 | 2005 |  | |||
| Raw
                    materials (net of reserves) |  | $ | 1,640,254 |  | $ | 1,139,730 |  |

| Total |  | $ | 3,609,301 |  | $ | 2,996,832 |  | 
Reserves
          for obsolescence of raw materials were $500,874 and $670,802 at December
          31,
          2006 and 2005, respectively. There were no reserves for finished goods
          or work
          in progress.
        Obsolete
          raw material inventory charged to operations for 2005 was $213,944. For
          fiscal
          2006, it was determined that there was an excess amount previously charged
          to
          the inventory reserve and a benefit of $169,928 was realized towards the
          operations for 2006. 
        Notes
          Payable
        We
          account for all note liabilities that are due and payable in one year as
          short
          term notes for example: Our line of credit with a commercial bank had a
          zero
          balance and our insurance premium financing arrangement had a balance of
          $161,948 at December 31, 2006.
        Property,
          plant and equipment
         These
          assets are recorded at cost less depreciation and amortization. Depreciation
          and
          amortization are accounted for on the straight-line method based on estimated
          useful lives. The amortization of leasehold improvements is based on the
          shorter
          of the lease term or the life of the improvement. Betterments and large
          renewals, which extend the life of the asset, are capitalized whereas
          maintenance and repairs and small renewals are expenses, as incurred. The
          estimated useful lives are: machinery and equipment, 7-15 years; buildings,
          30
          years; and leasehold improvements, 10-20 years.

        Goodwill
          and Other Intangible Assets
        These
          assets consist of licenses, purchased technology and brand name. The licenses
          and purchased technology (other intangibles) are being amortized by the
          straight-line method over a 5-20 year period. The brand name
          (goodwill) qualifies as an indefinite-lived intangible asset and is not
          subject to amortization. 
        Goodwill/brand
          name/trademark represents the excess of purchase price over fair value
          of
          identifiable net assets of acquired businesses.  Other intangible assets
          primarily represent allocations of purchase price to identifiable intangible
          assets of acquired businesses.  Goodwill/brand name/trademark and other
          intangible assets had been amortized over periods ranging from 5 to 40
          years
          through December 31, 2001.  
        In
          June
          2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued statement of Financial
          Accounting Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS
          142").  We adopted SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002.  As a result of
          the adoption of this standard, amortization of goodwill and certain intangibles
          has been discontinued.
        Impairment
          of Long-Lived Assets
        We review
          long-lived assets consisting of intangible assets subject to, and not subject
          to, amortization and property, plant and equipment subject to
          depreciation.  Our brand name is tested for impairment annually, or more
          frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset
          may
          have been impaired. In the event of impairment of any intangible asset,
          the
          excess of the carrying amount over the fair value is recognized as impairment
          loss. The impairment losses are not restored in the future. We assess the
          recover- ability of goodwill and other intangible assets based on an independent
          appraisal and or undiscounted cash flows that measures the impairment,
          if
          any.
        Revenue
          recognition
        Revenue
          is recognized when title has been transferred to the customer, which is
          generally at the time of shipment. The following policies apply to our
          major
          categories of revenue transactions:
        Sales
          to
          customers are evidenced by firm purchase orders. Title and the risks and
          rewards
          of ownership are transferred to the customer when the product is shipped.
          Payment by the customer is due under fixed payment terms.
        Product
          returns are only accepted at our discretion and in accordance with our
“Returned
          Goods Policy”. Historically, the level of product returns has not been
          significant. We accrue for sales returns, rebates and allowances based
          upon an
          analysis of historical customer returns and credits, rebates, discounts
          and
          current market conditions.
        Our
          terms
          of sale to customers generally do not include any obligations to perform
          future
          services. Limited warranties are generally provided for sales and provisions
          for
          warranty are provided at the time of product sale based upon an analysis
          of
          historical data.
        Amounts
          billed to customers related to shipping and handling have been included
          in net
          sales. Shipping and handling costs included in cost of sales expense were
          $125,927, and $124,159 for 2006 and 2005, respectively.
        We
          have
          no consignment inventory with customers but we do have inventory consigned
          to
          contract manufactures who produce components for us. For December 31, 2006
          and
          2005 we had consigned work in progress of $214,989 and $288,112,

        We
          sell
          to a diversified base of customers around the world and, therefore, believe
          there is no material concentration of credit risk.
        We
          assess
          the risk of loss on accounts receivable and adjust the allowance for doubtful
          accounts based on this risk assessment. Historically, losses on accounts
          receivable have not been material. Management believes that the allowance
          for
          doubtful accounts of $10,000 and $119,490 at December 31, 2006 and 2005,
          respectively, is adequate to provide for probable losses resulting from

        All
          advertising costs are expensed, as incurred. The amounts of advertising
          costs
          were $451,093 and $468,716 for 2006 and 2005, respectively. 
        Net
          Earnings Per Common share
        Basic
          earnings per share ("EPS") is computed based on the weighted average number
          of
          common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all
          dilutive potential shares outstanding (i.e., options and warrants) during
          the
          period. (See Significant Accounting Policies - Stock Based

          costs
          that are purchased from another enterprise and have alternative future
          use are
          capitalized and are amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset,
          generally five years.

        For
          research and development activities that are partially or completely funded
          by
          other parties and the obligation is incurred solely to perform contractual
          services, all expenses are charged to cost of sales and all revenues are

          must pay the costs for the development as it progresses and further provide
          that
          any future purchases of the developed product must be purchased from us.
          We
          assume no contractual risk and operate as the customer’s original equipment
          manufacturer. Our agreements call for no minimum order, but the customer
          may not
          manufacture or purchase this product from any other manufacturer.

        Bovie
          and
          its wholly owned subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.
          Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
          tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
          attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts
          of
          existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
          loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
          are
          measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
          the
          years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
          or
          settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change
          in tax
          rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
          date.

        Non-monetary
          Transactions
        The
          accounting for non-monetary assets is based on the fair values of the assets
          involved. Cost of a non-monetary asset acquired in exchange for another
          non-monetary asset is recorded at the fair value of the asset surrendered
          to
          obtain it. The difference in the costs of the assets exchanged is recognized
          as
          a gain or loss. The fair value of the asset received is used to measure
          the cost
          if it is more clearly evident than the fair value of the asset surrendered.

          Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An
          Interpretation of ARB51
         The
          FASB
          finalized FIN 46R in December 2003. FIN 46R expands the scope of ARB51
          and
          various EITFs and can require consolidation of legal structures, called
          Variable
          Interest Entities (VIEs).
          Companies with investments in Special
          Purpose Entities (SPEs)
          were
          required to implement FIN 46R in 2003; however, companies with VIEs were
          permitted to implement in the first quarter of 2004. While we do not have
          SPEs,
          we do have a VIE that we have determined will qualify for consolidation.
          Our
          joint venture with Jump Agentur Fur Electrotechnik GMBH (“the Joint Venture”,
“JAG”) qualifies as a VIE. We have consolidated this VIE for the years ended
          December 31, 2006, December 31, 2005, and December 31, 2004. The most
          significant impact to our financial statements is to include the net intangible
          assets of JAG, totaling $240,000 for the period ended December 31, 2006,
          and
          minority interest of $120,000 as of December 31, 2006 to our balance sheets.
          The
          impacts on our consolidated statements of net income or cash flows are
          not
          material.
        In
          November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of
          Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4,” which adopts wording from the
          International Accounting Standards Board’s (IASB) IAS 2 “Inventories” in an
          effort to improve the comparability of cross-border financial reporting.
          The
          FASB and IASB both believe the standards have the same intent; however,
          an
          amendment to the wording was adopted to avoid inconsistent application.
          The new
          standard indicates that abnormal freight, handling costs, and wasted materials
          (spoilage) are required to be treated as current period charges rather
          than as a
          portion of inventory cost. Additionally, the standard clarifies that fixed
          production overhead should be allocated based on the normal capacity of
          a
          production facility. The statement is effective beginning in fiscal year
          2007.
          Adoption is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated
          earnings,
          financial position or cash flows.
        In
          December 2004, the FASB issued FSP FAS 109-1, “Application of FASB Statement No.
          109, Accounting for Income Taxes, to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production
          Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.” The FSP
          clarifies that the manufacturer’s deduction provided for under the American Jobs
          Creation Act of 2004 (the Act) should be accounted for as a special deduction
          in
          accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” and not as a tax
          rate reduction. The Qualified Production Activities Deduction will not
          impact
          our consolidated earnings, financial position or cash flows for fiscal
          year 2006
          because the deduction is not available to us. We are currently evaluating
          the
          effect that this deduction will have in subsequent years.

        Accounting
          for Stock-Based Compensation
        Effective
          January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment
          ("SFAS 123R"), which requires companies to measure and recognize compensation
          expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors
          based
          on estimated fair values. SFAS 123R is being applied on the modified prospective
          basis. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company accounted for its
          stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement principles
          of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
          Issued
          to Employees, as provided by SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation"
          ("SFAS 123") and accordingly, recognized no compensation expense related
          to the
          stock-based plans as stock options granted to employees and directors were
          equal
          to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.
          In March
          2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107") relating
          to
          SFAS 123R. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption
          of
          SFAS 123R. 
        Under
          the
          modified prospective approach, SFAS 123R applies to new awards and to awards
          that were outstanding on January 1, 2006 that are subsequently modified,
          repurchased or cancelled. Under the modified prospective approach, compensation
          cost recognized includes compensation cost for all share-based payments
          granted
          prior to, but not yet vested on, January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date
          fair
          value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123, and compensation
          cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006,
          based
          on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions
          of SFAS
          123R. Prior periods were not restated to reflect the impact of adopting
          the new
          standard. During the fiscal year 2006, the Company recorded $41,098 in
          non-cash
          charges for the implementation of SFAS 123R. As of December 31, 2006, there
          was
          approximately $94,880 of total unrecognized compensation costs related
          to
          unvested options. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted
          average
          period of 4 years. 
        The
          weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the twelve
          months ended December 31, 2006 were estimated on the grant date using the
          binomial lattice option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected
          volatility of 25%, expected term of 5 years, risk-free interest rate of
          5.0%,
          and expected dividend yield of 0%. Expected volatility is based on a weighted
          average of the historical volatility of the Company's stock and peer company
          volatility. The average expected life was calculated using the simplified

        NOTES
          TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
        NOTE
          8. TAXES AND NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS (continued)
        Under
          the
          provisions of SFAS 109, NOLs represent temporary differences that enter
          into the
          calculation of deferred tax assets. Realization of deferred tax assets
          associated with the NOL is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable
          income
          prior to their expiration. 
        Management
          believes that there is a risk that certain of these NOLs may expire unused
          and,
          accordingly, has established a valuation allowance against them. Although
          realization is not assured for the remaining deferred tax assets, based
          on the
          historical trend in sales and profitability, sales backlog, and budgeted
          sales
          of Bovie’s wholly owned and consolidated subsidiary, Aaron Medical Industries,
          Inc., management believes it is likely that they may not be totally realized
          through future taxable earnings. In addition, the net deferred tax assets
          could
          be reduced in the near term if management's estimates of taxable income
          during
          the carryforward period are significantly reduced. 
        The
          valuation allowance of $2,187,818 as of December 31, 2005 was reduced by
          $1,098,319 to $1,089,499, as of December 31, 2006. The Company recognized
          a tax
          benefit of loss carryforward of approximately $895,900 during 2006. Other
          reasons for the reduction of valuation allowance were the decrease in tax
          assets
          of $32,018 and $171,304 related to the allowance for doubtful accounts
          and the
          reserve for inventory losses respectively, and an increase of $1,106 in
          tax
          liability for amortization of patent rights. The Company believes it is
          more
          likely than not that these additional tax assets may not be realized in
          the
          future. A reconciliation of the Federal statutory tax rate to Bovie’s effective
          tax rate is as follows: 
        | Tax
                    at statutory rate | 32.0% | 
| State
                    income taxes, net of U.S. federal benefit | 2% | 
| Tax
                    benefit of loss carry forward | (32%) | 
|  | |
| Effective
                    tax rate | 2% |

          9. RETIREMENT PLANS

        Bovie
          has

          for the benefit of its employees. The Company also maintains a group health
          and
          dental insurance plan. The employees are eligible to participate in the
          plan

        Bovie
          has

        In
          1996,
          1998, 2001 and 2003, Bovie established stock option plans under which officers,

        NOTE
          11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
        Legal
          Proceedings
        We
          have
          no material legal proceeding pending against us at this time. During 2006
          and
          2005 legal fees associated with the deductible on our insurance policy
          were $-0-
          and $ -0-, respectively.
        Product
          Liability
        Bovie
          currently has product liability insurance which it believes to be adequate
          for
          its business. The Company's existing policy expires December 31, 2007.
          During
          2006 our legal fee deductible was $10,000 per case up to $50,000. In 2006,
          that
          legal fee deductible went from $50,000 to $25,000 per case and the maximum
          out-of-pocket went from $250,000 to $125,000. In 2006, we set up a reserve
          for
          the cost of legal fees on a monthly basis equal to an estimate based on
          past
          product liability cases and legal costs. 
        Bank
          Line of Credit and Term Loan
        The
          financial covenants of the bank are: 
        Minimum
          Fixed Charge Coverage: Bovie shall maintain a Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage
          of
          1.25:1:00 measured at Bovie’s fiscal year end, defined as (after tax income +
          depreciation + amortization + lease expense + interest expense) divided
          by
          (lease expense + interest expense + current maturities of long term debt).
          We
          believe we are in compliance with all the bank’s covenants.
        Joint
          Venture - J Plasma Technology
        The
          agreement provides that we shall be responsible to expend our best efforts
          to
          obtain additional capital, if required up to a total estimated amount of
          $1.5
          million. As of December 31, 2006, we have expended approximately $800,000
          for
          product development and are additionally obligated to expend our best efforts
          to
          finance up to $700,000 additional. 
        Deferred
          Revenue
        During
          the past two years we have sold generators and guaranteed to replace hand
          pieces
          for 5 years. A portion of the sale associated with the future delivery
          of the
          additional hand pieces is considered deferred revenue.

         NOTE
          13. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PERFORMED FOR OTHERS 
        Bovie
          has
          entered into several manufacturing and development agreements to produce
          electrosurgical products for medical equipment companies. The agreements
          are
          considered Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM) contracts that call for:
          (1)
          Bovie to develop specific use devices and components (2) the customer is
          not
          committed to a certain dollar amount of purchases and (3) Bovie charges
          what it
          believes will be its costs for the development of the product. If the customer
          rejects or terminates the contract, it forfeits the development payments
          we have
          incurred. The customer must fulfill its agreement if Bovie delivers its
          working
          prototypes timely. 
        The
          following is research and development revenue and costs related to specific
          contracts, for 2006 and 2005:
