                                DECEMBER 31, 1996



NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
         for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
         10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
         all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
         accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
         of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
         accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
         included. Operating results for the six month period ended December 31,
         1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
         for the year ending June 30, 1997. The unaudited consolidated financial
         statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
         financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's
         Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1996.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Background

      The Company acquired its wholly owned subsidiary, SR-Medical AG, in June
of 1995 in exchange for 7,000,000 shares of its common stock. The merger between
the Company and SR-Medical AG is considered for accounting purposes to be a
recapitalization of SR-Medical AG with SR-Medical AG as the acquirer. The
unaudited consolidated financial statements for all periods presented take into
account SWISSRAY International, Inc. - the Parent - as well as SR-Medical AG,
Teleray AG, SR-Medical GmbH and SR Finance AG.

      This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the
consolidated operating results, financial condition and liquidity/cash flows of
the Company as at quarter ended December 31, 1996 and year ended June 30, 1996
with respect to the Company's consolidated balance sheets and the comparative
three month periods ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 (as well as
the comparative six month periods ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995)
based upon information appearing in the Company's consolidated statements of
operations and related financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with such unaudited consolidated financial statements.

      The Company, operating through its subsidiaries (i.e., its wholly owned
subsidiary, SR-Medical AG, and the latter's wholly owned subsidiaries, Teleray
AG (a Swiss corporation) and SR-Medical GmbH (a German corporation)), as well as
through the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, SR Finance AG, (a Swiss
corporation) remains engaged in the diagnostic X-ray medical equipment market,
wherein it develops, assembles and sells worldwide, both directly and indirectly
under its label SWISSRAY as well as to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM)
partners, X-ray units and accessories. Recently, substantial efforts have been
concentrated upon its newly developed digital imaging processing system called
"SwissVision" designed to enhance X-ray diagnosis with computer assistance by
(integrating computer technology with radiology in order to support the
radiologist in diagnostic functions) utilizing a Digital, recently developed,
"Add-on" Bucky which allows for direct digitalization of the radiology process
(and eliminates the need for the use and subsequent storage and/or retrieval of
X-ray film). In that respect and as heretofore indicated in the Company's Form
10-KSB the Company had expended during fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, in
excess of $1,700,000 for research and development expenditures, which
expenditures accounted for approximately 20% of all operating expenses during
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. The Company's research and development
expenditures during the quarter ended December 31, 1996 amounted to $1,338,311
or approximately 38% of all operating costs during such quarter as compared to
research and development expenditures of $335,889 or approximately 16% of all
operating costs for the quarter ended December 31, 1995.

Consolidated Statements of Operations for the Comparative Six Month Periods
Ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995

      Net sales for the six month period ended December 31, 1996 were $6,072,419
as

                                        3
<PAGE>   9
compared to net sales of $5,935,685 for the comparative six month period ended
December 31, 1995, while cost of sales decreased from the comparative six month
period ended December 31, 1995 from $3,066,385 to $3,018,248 resulting in a
gross profit for the six month period ended December 31, 1996 of $3,054,171
(representing approximately 50% of net sales) as compared to $2,869,300 for the
comparative six month period ended December 31, 1995 (representing approximately
48% of net sales). Accordingly, gross profits for the comparative periods
increased by $184,871 (an increase of approximately 6% from the comparative six
month period ended December 31, 1995). Operating expenses increased by
$1,890,614 (from $3,760,451 to $5,651,065) during the comparative six month
periods with the two largest items of operating expenses during the six month
period ended December 31, 1996 being represented by (a) the aggregate of
officers and directors compensation and salaries which represented approximately
25% of all such operating expenses (as compared to representing 36% of operating
expenses for the six month period ended December 31, 1995) and (b) research and
development which represented approximately 33% of all such operating expenses
(as compared to representing 14% of operating expenses for the six month period
ended December 31, 1995). Primarily as a result of the above, net losses
increased from $(767,489) for the six month period ended December 31, 1995 to
$(2,838,604) for the six month period ended December 31, 1996; an increase in
losses of $2,071,115 - (an approximate increase of close to 270% in net losses)
which increase in net loss may be principally attributed to the $1,317,984
increase in research and development expenditures during the comparative six
month period ended December 31, 1996.


Consolidated Statements of Operations for the Comparative Three Month Periods
Ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995

      Net sales for the three month period ended December 31, 1996 were
$3,605,244 as compared to net sales of $2,833,700 for the comparative three
month period ended December 31, 1995, while cost of sales increased from the
comparative three month period ended December 31, 1995 from $1,306,000 to
$1,828,991 resulting in a gross profit for the three month period ended December
31, 1996 of $1,776,253 (representing approximately 49% of net sales) as compared
to $1,527,700 for the comparative three month period ended December 31, 1995
(representing approximately 54% of net sales). Accordingly, gross profits for
the comparative periods increased by $248,553 (an increase of approximately 16%
from the comparative three month period ended December 31, 1995). Operating
expenses increased by $1,433,242 (from $2,110,231 to $3,543,473) during the
comparative three month periods with the two largest items of operating expenses
during the three month period ended December 31, 1996 being represented by (a)
the aggregate of officers and directors compensation and salaries which
represented approximately 21% of all such operating expenses (as compared to
representing 36% of operating expenses for the three month period ended December
31, 1995) and (b) research and development which represented approximately 38%
of all such operating expenses (as compared to representing 16% of operating
expenses for the three month period ended December 31, 1995). Primarily as a
result of the above, net losses increased from $(479,775) for the three month
period ended December 31, 1995 to $(1,998,847) for the three month period ended
December 31, 1996; an increase in losses of $1,519,072 - (an approximate
increase of close to 317% in net

                                        4
<PAGE>   10
losses) which increase in net loss may be principally attributed to the
$1,002,422 increase in research and development expenditures during the
comparative three month period ended December 31, 1996.

Consolidated Balance Sheets

      Total assets of the Company at the three month period ended December 31,
1996 and fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 were $18,877,165 and $18,793,438
respectively; a increase of $83,727, with total current assets decreasing from
$11,570,914 at June 30, 1996 to $11,465,621 at December 31, 1996 - a decrease of
$105,293. The decrease in total current assets is primarily attributable to
decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $1,789,410 and note receivable of
$161,412 offset principally by increases in inventory of $1,542,475 and prepaid
expenses and sundry receivables of $409,004. Since the above referenced
increases and decreases referred to in the preceding sentence were relatively
comparable and offset each other a principal reason for the decrease in current
assets may be attributable to the fact that accounts receivable net of allowance
for doubtful accounts decreased by $105,950.

      Total current liabilities of the Company at the three month period ended
December 31, 1996 and fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 were $9,415,753 and
$8,138,182 respectively, an increase of $1,277,571.

      At December 31, 1996 there were no long term liabilities.

      Working capital at December 31, 1996 was $2,049,868 as compared to working
capital of $3,432,732 at June 30, 1996; a decrease of $1,382,864 (as a result of
the aforesaid decrease of $105,293 in total current assets and an increase of
$1,277,571 in total current liabilities).

      The functional currencies of SR Medical AG, Teleray AG and SR Finance AG
(Swiss corporations) are Swiss Francs while the functional currency of SR
Medical GmbH (a German corporation) is German Marks. Gains and losses resulting
from foreign currency transactions which are included in operations have been
insignificant for all periods reported. However, the effects of exchange rate
fluctuations on translating foreign currency assets and liabilities and results
of operations from functional currency to United States dollars has been
significant although the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment
(loss) to stockholders' equity decreased from $(836,047) at June 30, 1996 to
$(724,287) at December 31, 1996 (a decrease of $111,760).

Discussion and Analysis

      A milestone in the second quarter ended December 31, 1996 was the very
successful Congress of Radiological Society of North America Exhibition ("RSNA")
where the Company's Digital AddOn System was presented to a large number of
persons (potential clientele) for the first time. The Digital AddOn System, the
only one of its kind known to management, utilizes the Company's AddOn-Bucky for
direct and cassetteless digital acquisition of x-ray information.

                                        5
<PAGE>   11
Responses have been very positive and negotiations for installation of the first
unit in the United States are ongoing. In comparison with the first quarter,
revenues have increased and management expects further increases during the
third and fourth quarters of the Company's fiscal year. This expectation is
based upon the success in the business, the delivery and increase in sales of
AddOn-Bucky and digital AddOn System and the commencement of the deliveries of
Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM") products for Philips.

      In November 1996 the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all of
the issued and outstanding securities of Empower Inc. ("Empower"), a company
engaged in the x-ray business located in Glen Cove, Long Island, New York and
operating primarily in the tri-state (New York, New Jersey and Connecticut)
area. It is anticipated that closing of the transaction will occur during the
Company's third fiscal quarter. Empower has indicated that it has approximately
1,500 present customers. Empower's unaudited financial statements indicated that
during Empower's fiscal year ended September 30, 1996 it had gross revenues
approximating $8,800,000 from sale of x-ray equipment, processors and
accessories with net income approximating $30,000. The acquisition, once
consummated, will permit immediate entry into the U.S. market by the Company on
the east coast and will offer an established distribution network for the
Company's products together with professional support for customers through
utilization of Empower's experienced and well trained staff.

      Upon completion of the acquisition of Empower the Company intends to
establish a network covering the entire U.S. market under the umbrella of its
parent corporation. A further extension of this network is intended to include
as partners and/or joint venturers, otherwise unaffiliated and independent
companies. The Company continues to negotiate with respect to the possibilities
of joint ventures and/or OEM contracts with multinational companies who have
expressed an interest in the Company's digital radiology products. Successful
culmination of one or more of these negotiations would potentially open more
markets to the Company.

      The German subsidiary of the Company has been restructured with its
headquarters being relocated to Wiesbaden (near Frankfurt). At the same time the
subsidiary's name was changed to "Swissray (Deutschland) GmbH". The new
organization gives the subsidiary the ability to handle the expected high sales
volumes and to cover the entire German market together with a network of
well-chosen dealers. During the restructuring process, Hans-Jurgen Luttschwager
was elected as general manager for the German subsidiary. Mr. Luttschwager has
over twenty years of experience in the field of radiology in Germany. He has a
technological background and started as a technician in nuclear medicine. Since
1974 he has been engaged in sales of both x-ray equipment and films. With his
experience and his knowledge of both the products and the market, Mr.
Luttschwager is considered by management to be a principal asset for the
expansion and success of the Company's German subsidiary.

      Over $1,800,000 has been invested in the research and development of four
new products in the six months ending December 31, 1996. The new products are:

1.    Swiss Vision, a digital image processing system compatible with modern
      x-ray units.

                                        6
<PAGE>   12
2.    Digital AddOn Bucky, an input device allowing for direct digitalization of
      x-ray images.

3.    Digital AddOn System, a fully digital multifunctional x-ray system using
      AddOn Bucky and a new mobile patient table with floating top. All
      movements are radio controlled.

4.    Bucky Diagnost TS, an ergonomically designed conventional x-ray unit with
      a state of the art generator.

      Testing and documentation was concluded for the filing of the Digital
AddOn Bucky for approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration
("FDA") in January with filing expected to be accomplished in April, 1997. Once
FDA approval is received, the Company will be able to enter into the U.S. market
with its digital x-ray equipment. This is expected to significantly increase
sales figures with a concurrent increase in expected earnings (which until now
have mostly come from the CE market where the AddOn Bucky is already sold).
