ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Financial Condition

Working capital at December 31, 1996 was $13,844,000 as compared to $11,782,000
at June 30, 1996.  The increase in working capital is primarily a function of
the cash flow from operating activities.  The cash and equivalents balance has
increased due to the positive cash flows the company experienced during the
first six months of fiscal 1996.

Company management believes that sales revenues to be generated by current
products and anticipated new product introductions, and financing arrangements
currently in place will be sufficient to meet future cash needs.


Results of Operations

Net sales for the three-month period ended December 31, 1996 decreased 10.3%
from the corresponding prior year period.  This decrease results from a
decrease in sales to our direct domestic customers and to both our
international dealers and OEM customers.  The decrease in the direct domestic
market sales of 18% is primarily due to decreased handheld pulse oximeter sales
and sales of our other oximetry products.  Sales to our international dealers
and OEM customers, which are down 2% and 27% respectively from the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 are also down in oximetry products.  Sales to our
domestic OEM customers increased 33% over the second quarter of fiscal 1996,
principally due to sales of oximetry products to new customers.

Net sales for the six-month period ended December 31, 1996 decreased 10%.  This
decrease is due to the above mentioned factors.

Other income for the three-  and six-month periods ended December 31, 1996
consists primarily of interest income.

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales was approximately 45.9% and
44.2%, respectively, during the three- and six-month periods ended December 31,
1996 compared to 45.3% and 44.5% for the corresponding periods ended December
31, 1995.  These fluctuations are attributable to changes in the mix  of
products sold among the periods.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were 26.5% and 25.3%,
respectively, of net sales in the three- and six-month periods ending December
31, 1996 compared to 21.4% and 23.4% during the same periods of the prior year.
The increased percentage in the three- and six-month periods ending December
31, 1996 is due in part to the decrease in sales over the same periods.
Additionally, expenses are up due to increased labor costs and travel expenses
to support the sales territories.

The decrease in engineering, research and development expenditures noted during
the three-month period ended December 31, 1996 of 0.9% compared to the similar
period in the prior year reflects decreases in expenses related to
miscellaneous new project expenses.  The 14.9% increase in

<PAGE>   7

expenditures over the six-month period ended December 31, 1996 when
compared to the similar period in the prior year reflects increases in expenses
related to payroll, outside consultants and miscellaneous project expenses is
the result of additional staffing when comparing the first half of fiscal 1997
to the same period in fiscal 1996.  The increased staff, with the outside
consultants, continue to develop new products that BCI  feels will meet the     
needs of the marketplace.

The Company began paying regular income taxes in the third quarter of fiscal
1996 when the net operating loss carryforward in which it had benefit was
depleted.  Prior to this, the Company was incurring a deferred income tax
expense as it depleted a deferred income tax asset resulting from the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109.

All other costs and expenses of the Company remained relatively constant when
comparing the first six months of fiscal 1997 to that of fiscal 1996.
