NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 27, 1996
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of American
Electromedics Corp. (the"Company") have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information. 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 three and six month periods ended January 27, 1996
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the year ended July 27,1996. For further information, refer to
the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Registrant's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended July 29,
1995.
2. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE
-----------------------
In January 1996, the Company invested $500,000 of cash and issued
500,000 shares of its common stock, $.10 par value, for a fifty percent
interest in Rosch GmbH Medizintechnik ("Rosch GmbH"). Rosch GmbH is a
marketing and distribution company based in Berlin, Germany specializing
in the distribution of healthcare products, including American
Electromedics products, to primary care physicians throughout Europe.
In January 1996, Rosch GmbH sold its exclusive distributorship rights
for a manufacturer's ear, nose, and throat ("ENT") line of products in
order to concentrate on the Company's products as well as other healthcare
products. At January 27, 1996 the investment in Rosch GmbH exceeded the
Company's share of the underlying equity in net assets by approximately
$550,000 and is being amortized over forty years.
Financial information for Rosch GmbH for the one month ended January
27, 1996 is as follows: sales - $243,000; gross profit - $74,000; net
income - $349,000, which includes $335,000 from the sale of the ENT
distributorship rights discussed above.
3. DEBT
----
In December 1995, the Company entered into a term loan agreement
with a bank. The loan is payable in equal monthly installments through
December 1998. Interest is based on the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate
plus .5%. There remains outstanding, under this loan, $194,000 as of
January 27, 1996.
The Company also has a revolving line of credit from the same bank
in the amount of $300,000. Interest is payable monthly and is based on
the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus .5%. As of January 27, 1996
there was $300,000 outstanding under this revolving line of credit.
Borrowings under these loans are collateralized by essentially all
of the assets of the Company.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Net sales for the three and six month periods ended January 27,1996
were $843,000 and $1,507,000, respectively, compared to $559,000 and
$1,120,000 for the three and six month periods ended January 28, 1995,
respectively. The increase in sales is primarily a result of shipments
of the new Race Car Tympanometer(, introduced in the second quarter,
along with continued market acceptance of our other product lines.
Additionally, net sales benefited from increased market penetration
by our new 50%-owned German medical products distribution affiliate,
Rosch GmbH Medizintechnik. The Company made this strategic investment
in January 1996.
Cost of sales for the three and six months ended January 27, 1996 were
50.8% and 54.3% of net sales compared to 61.5% and 59.4% of net sales
during the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in cost as a
percentage of sales can be attributed to the product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month
periods ended January 27, 1996 were $256,000 and $449,000, respectively,
compared to $137,000 and $290,000, respectively, for the comparable prior
year periods. The increase reflects increased sales and promotional
activity and corporate development expense.
Research and development expense was $48,000 and $108,000 for the three
and six month periods ended January 27, 1996, respectively, compared to
$7,000 and $14,000, respectively, for the same periods last year.
The increase in research and development expenditures is the result of
work performed in preparation for the release of the Company's new Race
Car Tympanometer along with other products under development.
Net income for the three and six month periods ended January 27, 1996
was $202,000, or $.02 per share, and $224,000, or $.02 per share,
respectively, compared to $58,000, or $.01 per share, and $135,000,
or $.01 per share, respectively, for the same periods last year.
The increase in net income is the result of a combination of higher
sales and an increase in gross profit margins.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
Working capital of the Company at January 27, 1996 was $656,000 compared
to $915,000 at fiscal year ended July 29, 1995. The decrease was
primarily the result of the strategic investment in our new German
affiliate offset by proceeds from a term loan and bank line of credit
and the results of operations.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
(Continued)
Currently, the Company expects that available cash will be sufficient to
meet its normal operating requirements, including research and development
expenditures, over the near term.
The Company is considering future growth through acquisitions of companies
or business segments in related lines of business or other lines of
business, as well as through expansion of the existing line of business.
In this connection, the Company is seeking to enhance its banking facility
and also sell its capital stock. There is no assurance that management
will find suitable acquisition candidates or effect the necessary financial
arrangements.
