                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


      NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of DePuy,
      Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with the
      instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and, therefore,
      do not include all information and footnotes required by generally
      accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  These
      financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
      financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
      Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration Statement No. 333-09345)
      filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of
      management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
      results of operations for the periods reported have been included.  The
      results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
      indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

      NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION / ACQUISITIONS

      The consolidated financial statements of the Company are comprised of
      DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc. (formerly DePuy Inc., renamed DePuy Orthopaedics,
      Inc. on September 5, 1996) and other U.S. and international orthopedic
      subsidiaries, branches and divisions of Corange Limited.  These
      consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the historical
      accounting records of the consolidated affiliates.  Unless otherwise
      referred to herein or the context otherwise requires, references to the
      "Company" or "DePuy" shall mean DePuy, Inc. and its majority owned
      subsidiaries, after giving effect to the reorganization described below.

      A worldwide reorganization of the Company's operations has occurred in
      anticipation of DePuy becoming a public company.  Various actions have
      been taken to (i) consolidate the worldwide operations of DePuy under
      Corange U.S. Holdings, Inc., an Indiana corporation ("CUSHI"), (ii)
      transfer out of the CUSHI consolidated group Boehringer Mannheim
      Corporation ("BMC"), and (iii) merge CUSHI downstream into DePuy, Inc.
      (which was created on July 26, 1996 for purposes of becoming the holding
      company for the DePuy worldwide operations), with DePuy, Inc. as the
      surviving company in the merger, the effect of which was to reincorporate
      CUSHI in Delaware under the name "DePuy, Inc."

      On March 11, 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of
      common stock of Orthopedic Technology, Inc. ("DePuy OrthoTech"), a
      manufacturer of orthopedic products primarily for the sports medicine
      market, in consideration of $46,300 in cash.  For the year ended September
      30, 1995, DePuy OrthoTech reported sales of $18,400 and net income of
      $600.  The purchase method of accounting was applied to this acquisition
      and a total of $41,600 was allocated to goodwill.  The acquisition was
      funded by available internal resources.

      The results of DePuy OrthoTech operations, since the date of acquisition,
      are included in the unaudited consolidated statement of income for the
      nine month period ended September 30, 1996 and are not material to
      consolidated net sales or consolidated net income.

      In addition the Company made contingent payments relating to previous
      acquisitions totaling $6 million which were recorded as goodwill.

      NOTE 3 - CAPITALIZATION AND UNAUDITED PRO FORMA NET INCOME PER SHARE

      Prior to the reorganization, the Company was not a legal entity and did
      not have a separately identifiable pool of capital.  Accordingly,
      historical per share data has been omitted from the consolidated financial
      statements.  Pro forma net income per share is based on historical net
      income and the number of shares of common stock which are outstanding
      after the reorganization, but prior to the Company's Initial Public
      Offering which was effective October 31, 1996 (Note 8).

</TABLE>

      NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES

      The difference between the Company's effective and statutory tax rates for
      both the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1996 is primarily
      attributable to state income taxes, nondeductible goodwill and the effect
      of international operations.

      NOTE 6 - SHAREHOLDER'S NET INVESTMENT

      Prior to becoming a public company pursuant to a registration statement
      filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission which became effective
      on October 30, 1996, the Company participated in a centralized cash
      management system for all of its U.S. operations through an affiliate,
      Corange U.S. Holdings, Inc. ("CUSHI").  Substantially all cash receipts
      and disbursements were processed through CUSHI and the Company was charged
      or credited for the net of cash receipts, cash disbursements, and other
      CUSHI allocated charges each month.  The net effect of this monthly
      activity was charged or credited to shareholder's net investment.

      NOTE 7 - CONTINGENCIES

      The Company is subject to a number of investigations, lawsuits and claims
      during the normal course of business.  Management does not expect that
      resulting liabilities beyond provisions already recorded will have a
      materially adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
      position, results of operations and cash flows.  The loss provisions
      recorded have not been reduced for any material amounts of anticipated
      insurance recoveries.

      NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

      Pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Securities and
      Exchange Commission which became effective on October 30, 1996, the
      Company issued, through an Initial Public Offering, 7,780,000 shares of
      its Common Stock at $17.50 per share which generated net proceeds after
      expenses, discounts and commissions of approximately $127 million.  The
      Company plans to use the net proceeds from the sale of shares of its
      Common Stock primarily to finance the expansion of the Company's business,
      provided suitable acquisitions can be identified and negotiated.

      The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Company at
      September 30, 1996 on an actual and as adjusted basis to give effect to
      the reorganization (Note 1) and the issuance of 7,780,000 shares of Common
      Stock offered by the Company:

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


      Effective with the Initial Public Offering, the Company has granted stock
      options under stock-based compensation plans totaling 1,274,250 shares at
      the initial public offering price of $17.50 per share.

      The Company will account for its stock-based compensation plans in
      accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
      for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related interpretations.
      Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the employees' stock options
      will equal or exceed the market price of the underlying stock on the date
      of grant, no compensation expense will be recognized.  In October 1995 the
      Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123, "Accounting
      for Stock-Based Compensation" (FAS 123) which became effective for fiscal
      years beginning after December 15, 1995.  The Company will adopt the
      additional disclosure requirements of FAS 123 in its yearend reporting in
      1996.

      Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Nine Months Ended
      September 30, 1995

      Net Sales were $516.3 million for the nine months ended September 30,
      1996, representing an increase of $44.6 million, or 9% over the same
      period in the prior year.  Continued penetration of the spinal implant
      market caused total sales to increase by 2%.  The acquisition of DePuy
      OrthoTech in March 1996 resulted in additional sales growth of 3%.  The
      effects of foreign exchange rates in 1996 compared with 1995 resulted in
      an unfavorable impact on sales of 1%.  The remaining 5% increase
      primarily related to sales growth in international markets, partially
      offset by the negative impact of lower average prices in the U.S.
      predominantly resulting from managed care contracts.

      The components of the worldwide sales improvement were as follows:

           Acquisitions                            3 %
           Volume and product mix                  8 %
           Net pricing changes                   - 1 %
           Effect of foreign exchange rates      - 1 %

      Domestic sales to unaffiliated customers rose $22.8 million, or
      approximately 8%.  This growth was primarily attributable to the
      acquisition of DePuy OrthoTech in March 1996 and to increased sales of
      spinal and shoulder implants.

      International sales to unaffiliated customers rose $21.8 million, or 11%.
      This increase in sales was related to continued expansion in the European,
      Asia/Pacific and South American regions.  Expansion in these areas caused
      sales to grow by 9%, 5% and 1%, respectively, during the nine months ended
      September 30, 1996, exclusive of the effects of foreign exchange.  The
      negative effect of foreign exchange rates caused the increase in
      international sales to be 4% less than it otherwise would have been during
      such nine-month period.

      The Company's gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
      was $361.0 million, or 69.9% of sales, as compared to 67.8% of sales for
      the prior nine-month period.  This margin improvement resulted from
      increased sales of spinal products and manufacturing efficiencies obtained
      through cost controls and higher unit sales, the consolidated impact of
      which more than offset the negative impact of lower average prices
      realized in the U.S.

      Selling, general and administrative expense totaled $194.4 million for the
      first nine months of 1996, or 37.6% of sales, as compared to 35.4% in the
      first nine months of the prior year.  The primary reason for this increase
      as a percent of sales was the cost associated with converting 75% of the
      Company's U.S. distribution structure from independent sales agents to
      Company-managed territories under the responsibility of territory sales
      managers.  As part of this conversion, the Company incurred additional (in
      certain cases, one time) costs totaling $11.7 million, primarily related
      to new surgical instrumentation and additional administration expenses
      incurred to set up the new territory offices.  In addition to these costs,
      the Company continued to invest in the development of the U.S. sales
      infrastructure and in the expansion of its business in the spinal and
      international markets.

      Research and development expense decreased $.2 million during the first
      nine months of 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.

      Goodwill amortization totaled $9.2 million for the first nine months of
      the year, representing a $1.6 million decrease compared to the same period
      in the prior year.  This decrease primarily related to certain goodwill
      assets becoming fully amortized during the third quarter of 1995.

      The Company reported a 13% increase in operating income to $141.7 million
      for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, or 27.4% of sales, as
      compared to $125.9 million for the same period in 1995, or 26.7% of sales.
      The increase was primarily attributable to improved gross margins, offset
      by additional expenses incurred in selling, general and administrative
      expense.

      Interest expense was $5.6 million, representing a $1.4 million increase
      over the same period in the prior year.  This higher expense primarily
      resulted from higher interest expense related to 
<PAGE>
 
      additional indebtedness incurred to fund the expansion of international
      operations in existing and new subsidiaries.

      Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $79.6 million,
      or 15.4% of sales, representing an 11% increase over the same period in
      the prior year.  This increase was the result of a 13% increase in
      operating profit offset by higher interest expense and lower equity in
      earnings of unconsolidated affiliate.

      Quarter Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Quarter Ended September 30,
      1995

      Net sales were $167.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
      representing an increase of $18.8 million, or 13% over the same period in
      the prior year.  Continued penetration of the spinal implant market caused
      total sales to increase by 3%.  The acquisition of DePuy OrthoTech in
      March 1996 resulted in additional sales growth of 3%.  The effects of
      foreign exchange rates in the third quarter of 1996 compared with the same
      quarter in 1995 resulted in no material impact on sales.  The remaining 7%
      increase related primarily to sales growth in international markets,
      partially offset by the negative impact of lower average prices in the
      U.S. predominantly resulting from managed care contracts.

      The components of the worldwide sales improvement were as follows:

           Acquisitions                            3 %
           Volume and product mix                 12 %
           Net pricing changes                    -2 %
           Effect of foreign exchange rates       -- %

      Domestic sales to unaffiliated customers rose $16.0 million, or
      approximately 18%.  This growth was primarily attributable to the
      acquisition of DePuy OrthoTech in March 1996 and to increased sales of
      spinal and shoulder implants.

      International sales to unaffiliated customers rose $2.8 million, or 5%.
      This increase in sales was related to continued expansion in the European,
      Asia/Pacific and South American regions.  Expansion in these areas caused
      sales to grow by 5%, 3% and 1%, respectively, during the three months
      ended September 30, 1996, exclusive of the effects of foreign exchange.
      The negative effect of foreign exchange rates caused the increase in
      international sales to be 4% less than it otherwise would have been during
      such three-month period.

      The Company's gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 was
      $118.5 million, or 70.8% of sales, as compared to 68.3% of sales for the
      same quarter in the prior year.  This margin improvement resulted from
      increased sales of spinal products and manufacturing efficiencies obtained
      through cost controls and higher unit sales, the consolidated impact of
      which more than offset the negative impact of lower average prices
      realized in the U.S.

      Selling, general and administrative expense totaled $66.1 million for the
      first three months of 1996, or 39.5% of sales, as compared to 37.6% in the
      third quarter of the prior year.  The primary reason for this increase as
      a percent of sales was the cost associated with converting 75% of the
      Company's U.S. distribution structure from independent sales agents to
      Company-managed territories under the responsibility of territory sales
      managers.  As part of this conversion, the Company incurred additional (in
      certain cases, one time) costs totaling $4.2 million during the quarter,
      primarily related to new surgical instrumentation and additional
      administration expenses incurred to set up the new territory offices.  In
      addition to these costs, the Company continued to invest in the
      development of the U.S. sales infrastructure and in the expansion of its
      business in the spinal and international markets.

      Research and development expense increased $.3 million during the third
      quarter of 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995, but decreased as a
      percentage of sales to 3.4% as compared to 3.6% for the prior year.  The
      Company continues to make investments in technological advancements in
      order to remain competitive in the orthopedic market and to provide its
      customers with the latest technology available.
<PAGE>
 
      Goodwill amortization totaled $2.7 million for the third quarter of the
      year, representing a $.9 million decrease compared to the same period in
      the prior year.  This decrease primarily related to certain goodwill
      assets becoming fully amortized during the third quarter of 1995.

      The Company reported a 20% increase in operating income to $44.0 million
      for the three months ended September 30, 1996, or 26.3% of sales, as
      compared to $36.7 million for the same period in 1995, or 24.7% of sales.
      The increase was primarily attributable to improved gross margins, offset
      by additional expenses incurred in selling, general and administrative
      expense.

      Interest expense was $2.2 million for the quarter, representing a $.6
      million increase over the prior year.  This higher expense primarily
      resulted from higher interest expense related to additional indebtedness
      incurred to fund the expansion of international operations in existing and
      new subsidiaries.

      Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was $24.0
      million, or 14.4% of sales, representing an 18% increase over the same
      period in the prior year.  This increase was the result of a 20% increase
      in operating profit offset by higher interest expense and lower earnings
      of an unconsolidated affiliate.

      Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Cash generated from operations is the principal source of funding
      available and provides adequate liquidity to meet the Company's
      operational needs.  Cash and cash equivalents totaled $57.8 million at
      September 30, 1996, compared with $46.9 million at December 31, 1995.

      Working capital at September 31, 1996, was $207.9 million, representing a
      $31.1 million increase from December 31, 1995.  The annualized inventory
      turnover ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was 1.6,
      decreasing slightly compared with the rate of 1.7 experienced during the
      nine months ended September 30, 1995.  The annualized accounts receivable
      turnover rate was 5.8 for the first nine months of 1996, increasing
      slightly from 5.7 in the same period in 1995.

      Operating activities generated $83.4 million in the first nine months of
      1996 as compared to $96.0 million of cash provided in the same period in
      the prior year.  The $12.6 million decrease resulted primarily from a
      higher investment in inventories during the first nine months of 1996 in
      support of changes in the Company's method of distribution and inventory
      buildup to support the faster growing product lines such as trauma and
      spinal.  In addition, higher investments were made in surgical
      instrumentation sets in the first nine months of the year as compared to
      the same period in the prior year, offset by receipt of payment during the
      first six months of 1996 of an affiliate receivable outstanding at
      December 31, 1995.

      Cash flows used for investing activities totaled $68.5 million in the
      first nine months of 1996 including $45.9 million paid in consideration
      for the acquisition of DePuy OrthoTech (net of cash received), capital
      expenditures of $16.6 million and $6.0 million of deferred payments made
      in 1996 related to the acquisitions of ACE Medical Company in March 1994
      and of CMW Laboratories in November 1994.  In the first nine months of
      1995, cash flows used for investing activities of $27.7 million included
      deferred payments on previous acquisitions of $17.5 million and $10.2
      million for purchases of machinery and equipment.  The increase in capital
      expenditures in the two nine month periods resulted primarily from items
      being deferred from the last quarter of 1995 to the first half of 1996.

      Cash flows used from financing activities were $3.9 million in the first
      nine months of 1996 and included $29.7 million of advances received from
      CUSHI, an affiliate, as part of the centralized cash management system
      described below, used for the DePuy OrthoTech acquisition offset by a net
      decrease in debt of $28.6 million and dividends of $5.0 million paid to
      another affiliate.  During the first nine months of 1995, cash flows used
      by financing activities totaled $60.8 million resulting from $51.9 million
      of advances to CUSHI, representing advances under the cash management
      system described below, and an $8.9 decrease in debt.
<PAGE>
 
      Prior to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement
      filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission which became effective
      on October 30, 1996 (described in Note 8 to the interim Consolidated
      Financial Statements), the U.S. subsidiaries of DePuy participated in a
      centralized cash management system with CUSHI.  Cash generated by the
      Company in the U.S. was advanced to CUSHI and classified as a reduction in
      shareholder's net investment on the balance sheet.  Effective with the
      Company becoming a public company, cash generated is now maintained in its
      own accounts and is available for use by the Company.  The Company does
      not believe it has any present need for additional financing to fund
      existing operations.  If financing becomes necessary, the Company will
      pursue credit facilities from commercial sources.

      The Company anticipates that it will pay dividends on a quarterly basis,
      provided that funds are legally available therefor and subject to the
      discretion of the Board of Directors.  Capital expenditures are expected
      to be approximately $25 million in 1996, primarily consisting of purchases
      of machinery and equipment.  In addition to these funding requirements,
      the Company expects to continue to evaluate potential acquisitions to
      expand its business.

      The Company has historically been able to fund its capital and operating
      needs through its cash flow from operations and expects to be able to
      continue to do so in the future.  The Company believes that the net
      proceeds from the Offering of approximately $127 million received in
      November 1996 along with its ability to issue additional shares of Common
      Stock and to obtain credit lines, together with its cash flow from
      operations, will provide it with the ability to fund its acquisition
      strategy.


      Factors Affecting Future Performance

      The orthopedic industry is experiencing a period of significant transition
      as a result of health care reform.  While cost containment issues have
      existed for several years outside of the United States, these are
      relatively recent phenomena in the U.S. orthopedic market.  Trends in the
      U.S. market, which have had an impact on the Company, include the
      increased movement toward the provision of health care through managed
      care, significant emphasis on cost control and related pressures.

      The advent of managed care in the orthopedic products industry has meant
      greater attention to tradeoffs of patient need and product cost, so-called
      demand matching, where patients are evaluated as to their age, need for
      mobility, and other parameters, and are then matched with a replacement
      product that is cost effective in light of such evaluation.  This has led
      (particularly from mid-1995 onward) to an increase in unit sales of lower-
      priced, cemented products, sales of which constitute an increasing share
      of the Company's overall unit growth.  Such shift in product mix has and
      is expected to continue to have an impact on the Company's sales with
      respect to hip replacement systems and, to a lesser extent, knee
      replacement systems.
