1. Operations
Nitinol Medical Technologies, Inc. (the Company) designs, develops, and
markets innovative medical devices that utilize advanced technologies and
are delivered by minimally invasive procedures. The Company's products are
designed to offer alternative approaches to existing complex treatments,
thereby reducing patient trauma, shortening procedure, hospitalization and
recovery times and lowering overall treatment costs. The Company's patented
medical devices include self-expanding stents, vena cava filters and septal
repair devices. At this time, the Company's stents have been commercially
launched in Europe and in the United States for certain indications, its
vena cava filters are marketed in the United States and abroad, and its
CardioSEAL Septal Occluder is in the clinical trials stage in the United
States and is sold commercially in Europe and other international markets.
The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other
companies in this stage of development, including uncertainties regarding
the development of commercially viable products, competition from
alternative procedures and larger companies, dependence on key personnel
and government regulation.
2. Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 1998 and
for the three month period then ended are unaudited. In management's
opinion, these unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been

included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending
December 31, 1997 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 17, 1998 and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
such interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for
the fiscal year ending December 31, 1998.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than the historical financial
information, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All such forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties or other factors which
may cause actual results, performance or achievement of the Company to be
materially different from any future results, performance, or achievement
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might
cause such a difference include uncertainties in market demand and acceptance,
government regulation and approvals, and intellectual property rights and
litigation, the impact of healthcare reform programs and competitive products
and pricing, risks associated with technology and product development and
commercialization, potential product liability, management of growth and
dependence on significant corporate relationships and other risks detailed in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 1997
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 17, 1998.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
1997
Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998 increased to $3.4
million from $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 (a 55%
increase). Product sales increased to $2.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 from $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 (a
37% increase) primarily due to increased unit sales of vena cava filters and
CardioSEAL Septal Occluders during the three months ended March 31, 1998 as
compared with the three months ended March 31, 1997. License fees for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 increased to $768,000 from $250,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 (a 207% increase). Specifically, the Company
recorded $375,000 in minimum quarterly license fees, $300,000 in milestone
payments and $93,000 in cost reduction incentives from Boston Scientific
Corporation ("Boston Scientific") related to its stent technology in the three
months ended March 31, 1998. The three months ended March 31, 1997 included
$250,000 of minimum royalty payments. Product development revenues from Boston
Scientific (which consist of reimbursement of certain costs incurred by the
Company) decreased to $1,500 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from
$31,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 (a 95% decrease), due to the
completion of the Company's transfer of its stent technology to Boston
Scientific in November 1995, which resulted in a significant reduction of stent
development costs incurred by the Company on behalf of Boston Scientific.
Cost of Product Sales. Cost of product sales increased to $1.0 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 from $896,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1997 (a 12% increase) primarily due to the increase in unit sales of the
vena cava
-10-
<PAGE>
filter and CardioSEAL Septal Occluder. Cost of product sales, as a percent of
product sales, decreased to 38% for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from
47% for the three months ended March 31, 1997. This decrease primarily reflects
the impact of the Company's reorganization of its vena cava filter operations
during the second quarter of 1997, which has resulted in lower per unit
manufacturing costs for the vena cava filter.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased to
$764,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from $753,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 (a 1% increase). The increase reflects increased
activity in the Company's development programs for vena cava filters and other
products under development. Increased expenses resulted primarily from
increases in personnel and related costs and engineering expenses. The Company
received reimbursement from Boston Scientific for $1,500 and $31,000 of these
expenses in the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, which
amounts are also included in revenues.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 were $680,000 and remained relatively consistent
with the $676,000 of expenses recorded in the three month period ended March 31,
1997 (a 1% increase). The increase is the result of the Company's expanded
scope of operations.
Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses increased to $321,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 from $138,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 (a 133% increase). The increase related primarily to marketing
activities related to the CardioSEAL Septal Occluder in connection with the
commencement of commercial sales of this product in Europe and other
international markets in June 1997.
Interest Income, Net. Interest income, net was $383,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 as compared to $402,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1997 (a 5% decrease). The decrease was primarily a result of the Company's
investments earning slightly lower interest rates and lower average cash and
investment balances during the three months ended March 31, 1998, as compared to
the three months ended March 31, 1997.
Income Taxes. The Company had a provision for income taxes of $332,000 and
$40,500 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, based
on an operating income of $976,000 and $120,000 for the respective periods and
an estimated effective tax rate of 34%.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company's operations provided cash
of $250,000. In the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company's operations
utilized cash of $523,000, which was used primarily for working capital.
-11-
<PAGE>
Purchases of property and equipment for use in its research and development,
manufacturing and general and administrative activities amounted to $37,000 and
$81,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. In
June 1997, the Company entered into a $1.0 million equipment lease line of
credit agreement with the bank without covenants. Borrowings of $376,000 and
$250,000 have been made under this agreement by the Company and its affiliate,
Image Technologies Corporation ("ITC"), respectively, of which $332,000 and
$218,000 was outstanding as of March 31, 1998, respectively. On April 1, 1998,
the Company entered into a new agreement with the bank that provides the Company
and ITC with similar terms and the option to borrow up to $750,000 through March
31, 2003. No borrowings have been made under this new agreement. The Company
also has outstanding borrowings of $406,000 under an expired lease finance
facility agreement with the same bank. The Company guarantees the outstanding
leases of ITC under these agreements.
In connection with the Company's acquisition of a 23% ownership interest in ITC,
the Company extended to ITC a credit line of up to $2.0 million of senior debt.
The Company anticipates that it will begin funding the operations of ITC in May
1998 through this credit line for a period of approximately twelve months. Any
credit extended to ITC under this credit line will bear interest at a rate equal
to ten percent (10%) per annum.
The Company is party to various other significant contractual arrangements,
including salaries and fees for current employees and consultants, the number of
which is likely to increase as additional agreements are entered into and
additional personnel are retained. The Company also has committed to purchase
certain minimum quantities of the vena cava filter from a supplier through June
2001. See Note 8 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 17, 1998. All of these arrangements require cash
payments by the Company over varying periods of time. Certain of these
arrangements are cancelable on short notice and certain require termination or
severance payments as part of any early termination.
The Company has reviewed its internal computer systems and their capability of
recognizing the year 2000 and years thereafter. The Company expects that any
costs related to ensuring that systems will be year 2000 compliant will not be
material to the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
The Company believes that its existing resources and cash flow from current
operations will be sufficient to fund its current level of operations and
planned new product development, including increased working capital
requirements and capital expenditures, for the foreseeable future. The Company
expects to expend substantial resources to complete development of the Company's
products, to seek regulatory clearances or approvals, to build its marketing,
sales and manufacturing organizations and to conduct further research and
development.

The Company may require additional funds for its research and product
development programs, preclinical and clinical testing, operating expenses,
regulatory processes, manufacturing and marketing programs and potential
licenses and acquisitions. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to
stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive
covenants. The Company's capital requirements will depend on numerous factors,
including the sales of its products, the progress of its research and
development programs, the progress of preclinical and clinical testing, the time
and cost involved in obtaining regulatory approvals, the cost of filing,
prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual
property rights, competing technological and market developments, developments
and changes in the Company's existing research, licensing and other
relationships and the terms of any collaborative, licensing and other
arrangements that the Company may establish.
