INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Board of Directors
Medical Graphics Corporation
Saint Paul, Minnesota

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of Medical Graphics Corporation 401(k) Savings Plan (the Plan) as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance concerning whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 1998
and 1997, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules listed in
the table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules are the responsibility of
the Plan's management. Such supplemental schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements
and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

MEDICAL GRAPHICS CORPORATION 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.      DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

        The following description of the Medical Graphics Corporation 401(k)
        Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants
        should refer to the plan document for a more complete description of the
        Plan's provisions.

        GENERAL - The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering substantially
        all employees of Medical Graphics Corporation (the Company) who have at
        least six months of service and are age 21 or older. Medical Graphics
        Corporation, as the plan administrator, controls and manages the
        operation and administration of the Plan. Certain members of the
        Company's management served as the trustees of the Plan through August
        1997. As of September 1997, Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A. was appointed
        the trustee of the Plan. Benefits were funded through a qualified trust
        and a group annuity contract with Principal Mutual Life Insurance
        Company through August 1997. As of September 1997, benefits are funded
        through Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A. During September 1997, all
        investments, except the Guaranteed Interest Account, were transferred
        from Principal Mutual Life Insurance to Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A. The
        Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
        Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

        CONTRIBUTIONS - Under the provisions of the Plan, a participant may
        contribute up to 17% of pretax annual compensation to his/her
        participant account up to the maximum amount determined by the Internal
        Revenue Service. There is a provision in the Plan for matching and
        nonelective employer discretionary contributions. The Company
        contributed 25% of the first 6% of base compensation that a participant
        contributed to the Plan, through February 9, 1997, at which time the
        Company discontinued the matching contributions.

        VESTING - Participants are immediately vested in their salary reduction
        contributions plus earnings thereon. Vesting in the matching and
        nonelective discretionary contribution portion of their accounts plus
        actual earnings thereon is based on years of credited service. A
        participant is 100% vested after three years of credited service, with
        staggered vesting percentages prior to that time.

        PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS - Each participant's account is credited with the
        participant's contributions and withdrawals, as applicable, and
        allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) plan earnings,
        and debited with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations
        are based on participant earnings, as defined. The benefit to which a
        participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
        participant's account.

        INVESTMENT OPTIONS - Through August 30, 1997, a participant was allowed
        to direct employee and employer contributions to investment options as
        follows:

            KOPP INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO - Funds are invested primarily in the
            common stocks of emerging growth and large corporations.

            GUARANTEED INTEREST ACCOUNT - A guaranteed investment which invests
            mostly in private placement bonds, commercial mortgages, and
            residential mortgages.

            capital growth.

            BOND AND MORTGAGE ACCOUNT - A pooled investment account invested in
            intermediate-term fixed-income loans.

            MEDICAL GRAPHICS CORPORATION COMMON STOCK FUND - Funds are invested
            in the common stock of Medical Graphics Corporation. Effective
            January 1, 1995, no new contributions could be made to this fund.

        Effective September 1, 1997, a participant may direct employee and
        employer contributions to investment options as follows:

            STABLE RETURN FUND - A conservative fund option which invests in
            high quality insurance contracts, bank investment contracts, and
            money market instruments seeking to provide safety of principal and
            adequate liquidity.

            STRATEGIC INCOME FUND - Designated to provide consistent total
            return with emphasis on principal protection and income, with a
            small amount of equity exposure to enhance returns.

            GROWTH BALANCED FUND - Designed to provide a combination of current
            income and capital appreciation by diversifying investment of the
            Fund's assets between stocks and intermediate maturity bonds. The
            Fund holds more equity securities than the Strategic Income Fund.

            DIVERSIFIED EQUITY FUND - Emphasizes long-term capital appreciation.
            Annual return volatility is moderated through diversifying among
            five complimentary equity styles.

            GROWTH EQUITY FUND - Designed to reduce the volatility and risk of
            investing in equity securities.

            JANUS WORLDWIDE FUND - Seeks long-term capital growth by investing
            primarily in stocks of foreign and U.S. companies.

            PUTNAM OTC EMERGING GROWTH FUND - Invests in mainly over the counter
            stocks of small- to mid-size emerging growth companies.

        Participants may change or transfer their investments options
        at any time.

        LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS - Participants may borrow from their fund accounts
        a minimum of $1,000 with a maximum of 50% of their vested balance or
        $50,000, whichever is less. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer
        between the investment fund and the loan fund. Loan terms range from 1
        to 5 years or up to 25 years for the purchase of a primary residence.
        The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and
        bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates as
        determined quarterly by the plan administrator. Principal and interest
        is paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions.

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS - The investments of the Plan are stated at
        fair value based on closing sales prices reported on recognized
        securities exchanges on the last business day of the year, or for listed
        securities having no sales reported, upon the last reported bid prices
        on that date. The mutual funds are valued at quoted market prices which
        represent the net asset values of shares held by the Plan at year-end.

        VALUATION OF LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS - The loans to participants are
        valued at cost plus accrued interest which approximates fair value.

        EXPENSES - The Plan's expenses are paid from the assets of the Plan and
        are allocated to the participant's accounts.

3.      INVESTMENTS

        The Plan's investments are held in a trust. The Plan conducts
        transactions with parties-in-interest which include the Company; Norwest
        Bank Minnesota, N.A.; and the participants of the Plan. The following
        assets represent individual investments greater than 5% of the Plan's

5.      PLAN TERMINATION

        Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Company has
        the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions
        set forth in ERISA. In the event of any termination of the Plan, the
        accounts of each affected participant shall become fully vested and
        distributed to the respective participants.

6.      INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE STATUS

        The Plan obtained its latest determination letter dated July 27, 1993,
        in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then
        designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
        Internal Revenue Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving this
        determination letter. Effective September 1997, the Plan is covered
        under the tax determination letter dated November 23, 1992, according to
        the Plan's adoption of the standardized plan #06 with Norwest Bank
        Minnesota, N.A. The Company believes that the Plan is currently designed
        and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
        Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been
        included in the Plan's financial statements.
