                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
  
                          March 31, 1995
   
The financial statements have been prepared by Waters Instruments, Inc.
without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and 
Exchange Commission.  The information furnished in the financial statements
includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
such financial statements.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that
the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not 
misleading.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the accompanying
notes included in the Company's latest Annual Report.

The marketable securities included as cash equivalents on the balance sheet 
and cash flow statements meet the definition of cash equivalents set forth
in paragraphs 8 and 9 of SFAS95.  

Inventories at March 31, 1995 and June 30, 1994 consisted of the following:

          Total Inventories      $1,557,000         $1,794,000  
  

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
  
Liquidity and Capital Requirements

The Company's working capital position at March 31, 1995 was $2,770,000, a 1%
increase from the $2,732,000 amount at June 30, 1994.  The cash balance for
the Company was $1,028,000 at March 31, 1995 compared to the cash balance
of $965,000 at June 30, 1994.

The Company believes that its existing funds, cash generated from operations
and short-term borrowing under the Company's line of credit will be 
adequate to meet the Company's foreseeable operating activities and outlays for 
capital expenditures. 

The Company has a $750,000 line of credit with its bank which bears 
interest at .75 percentage points over the bank's reference rate.  The
line of credit is collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable, 
inventories, and general intangibles.  The Company had no outstanding
balances on March 31, 1995 under its line of credit.

Capital expenditures of $92,000 and $188,000 for the quarter and nine-month
period ended March 31, 1995, respectively, were used to purchase 
manufacturing equipment.  The Company anticipates continued improvements
in the manufacturing process, lower unit manufacturing cost and improved
gross margins as a result of these capital expenditures.

Results of Operations

Net sales for the quarter and nine-month period ended March 31, 1995 were
$3,177,000 and $9,051,000 respectively.  This represents an increase of 3.1%
for the quarter and decrease of .5% for the nine months ended March 31,
1995 when comparing to the comparable periods for the prior year. 

Waters Medical Systems' net sales for the quarter and nine-month period 
ended March 31, 1995 were $578,000 and $1,885,000 respectively.  This
represents an increase of 4.9% for the quarter and 9.9% for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 when comparing to the comparable period of
the prior year. 

Sales declines were experienced in the American FarmWorks Division of the
Company for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 1995.  Net sales
for American FarmWorks for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 1995
were $2,188,000 and $6,189,000 respectively.  This represents a 6.7%
decrease for the quarter and a 5.2% decrease for the nine months ended
March 31, 1995 when comparing to the comparable periods of the prior
years.  This reduction represents the planned discontinuance of certain
accessory products. 

Midwest WireTech had net sales of $411,000 for the quarter and $977,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1995.  This represents an increase
of 94.8% for the quarter and 14.0% for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 
when comparing to the comparable periods of the prior year. The Company
will continue to identify and establish new product technologies and growth
opportunities in contract manufacturing.

Net income for the Company for the quarter and nine-month period ended
March 31, 1995 was a profit of $71,000 and a profit of $141,000
respectively.  This compares comparably to the loss of $46,000 for
the quarter of the prior year and profit of $74,000 for the comparable
nine months of the prior year.  The nine month results represent an
increase of 90% from the comparable period of the prior year.  This
increase was achieved despite a one-time reorganization charge of
$139,000 relating primarily to employee termination expense during the
first half of fiscal year 1995.  This reorganization charge was incurred
in connection with productivity improvements within the entire
organization, but principally in its American FarmWorks business unit.

The Company settled a claim involving a breach of contract with a supplier
during October 1994.  The settlement required a payment by the Company in
October 1994 in the amount of $75,000.  The Company had accrued an
estimated amount of $50,000 with respect to this claim in Fiscal Year
1994 and recorded an additional $25,000 in the quarter ended December 31,
1994.

The Company's previously announced order from Argon Medical for Thermal 
Dilution Cardiac Output computers has been canceled by Argon Medical.
Argon made no complaint about the price or quality of the Company's
product.  The order, originally expected to generate sales of $300,000
in each of Fiscal Year 1995 and 1996, has resulted in sales of 
$254,000 to date.  The Company's management feels the Argon order
cancellation will not significantly impact Fiscal Year 1996 earnings.
