              Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments
     (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion
     of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim
     periods. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
     November 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the full year.

2.   Inventories

     Inventories, consisting principally of components, parts and supplies, are
     stated at the lower of cost, determined by the first-in, first-out method
     or market.

3.   Net Income Per Share

     Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares
     outstanding during each quarter. The weighted average shares for computing
     basic earnings per share were 4,146,696 and 4,007,120 for the quarters
     ended November 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and 4,129,649 and 3,996,435
     for the nine months ended November 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

     Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
     common and dilutive common equivalent shares calculated at average market
     prices. The weighted average shares for computing diluted earnings per
     share were 4,237,523 and 4,235,239 for the quarters ended November 30, 2000
     and 1999, respectively, and 4,278,705 and 4,099,125 for the nine months
     ended November 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

4.   Accounting for Income Taxes

     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between
     financial statement basis and tax basis of assets, liabilities and
     available general business tax credit carry-forwards. A valuation allowance
     is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount
     expected to be realized.

5.   Treasury Stock Repurchase

     As of November 30, 2000, the Company purchased an aggregate of 47,800
     shares of its common stock at a total cost of $131,980.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

     Prospective investors are cautioned that the statements in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10Q-SB that are not descriptions of historical facts
may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Reform Act of 1995, including statements concerning the Company's future
products, results of operations and prospects. These forward-looking statements
are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially
from those currently anticipated, including those relating to general economic
and business condition, the passage and implementation of legislation, the
results of research and development efforts, technological changes and
competition, potential changes in regulation by the FDA, costs relating to
manufacturing of products and the timing of customer orders detailed elsewhere
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q-SB and from time to time in the Company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of November 30, 2000 the Company had working capital of $12,462,469
including $5,293,725 in cash and other cash equivalents. The Company believes
its capital and liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future will be
satisfied by available and internally generated funds. To the extent the
Company's capital and liquidity requirements are not satisfied internally, the
Company may utilize a $1,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit, all of which is
currently available. Borrowings under this line will bear interest at the bank's
prime rate.

     For the nine months ended November 30, 2000, cash flow increased by
$333,823 and net cash flow from operations increased by $901,261. Net income for
the nine months ended November 30, 2000 increased net cash flow from operating
activities by $222,650 compared to net income of $1,879,229 for the nine months
ended November 30, 1999. In the nine months ended November 30, 2000, the Company
used $690,102 in cash to increase inventory for primarily the hearing business.
In contrast, the Company increased cash flow by $321,857 by reducing accounts
receivable. Finally, the Company used net cash from investing activities to
purchase $438,133 in capital equipment.

Results of Operations

     Net sales for the three month period ended November 30, 2000 (the "2000
three months") decreased by 1% to $6,622,632 from $6,720,744 in the three month
period ended November 30, 1999 (the "1999 three months."), while net sales for
the nine month period ended November 30, 2000 (the "2000 nine months") decreased
by 9% to $17,806,031 compared to $19,589,513 in the nine month period ended
November 30, 1999 (the "1999 nine months.") Domestic sales decreased
significantly by 14% and 17% to $5,392,992 and $14,583,572 for the 2000 three
and nine months, respectively, compared to $6,289,307 and $17,621,465 for the
1999 three and nine months, respectively. Foreign sales of $1,229,640 and
$3,222,459 contributed 19% and 18% of net sales for the 2000 three and nine
months, respectively, an increase of 185% and 64% compared to $431,437 and
$1,968,048 for the 1999 three and nine months, respectively. The increase in
foreign sales in the 2000 three and nine months was due to continuing demand,
especially in the Far East, of the Company's new AuDX, Abaer and Navigator Pro
products. The Company continued to record lower net sales in the domestic market
for the 2000 three and nine months due in part to increased competition and
lower demand for its' high-end Ceegraph products resulting in fewer large
multiple system orders. Finally, the Company believes its net sales have been
negatively impacted by the decisions of hospital purchasing managers to delay
buying hospital equipment until 2001 because of high capital outlay caused by
the Y2K concern.

                                Form 10-QBS


     Cost of sales decreased to $2,061,774 and $5,865,341 for the 2000 three
and nine months, respectively, compared to $2,214,163 and $6,128,978 for the
1999 three and nine months, respectively. Cost of sales as a percentage of net
sales decreased to 31% during the 2000 three months from 33% during the 1999
three months and increased to 33% for the 2000 nine months compared to 31% for
the 1999 nine months. The Company attributes the differences in the cost of
sales as a percentage of net sales for the 2000 three and nine months to a
combination of sales mix, continued higher inventory reserve and higher service
costs.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 3% and 7% to
$3,163,571 and $9,194,321 during the 2000 three and nine months, respectively,
compared to $3,068,905 and $8,630,079 for the 1999 three and nine months,
respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
net sales increased to 48% and 52% during the 2000 three and nine months,
respectively, compared to 46% and 44% for the 1999 three and nine months. The
increases in the 2000 three and nine months continue to reflect the cost of
investing in additional sales, customer support and executive personnel to
better serve the Company's new and existing customers. In addition, the Company
experienced high costs in travel, freight and office services offset by lower
sales commissions.

     Research and development costs increased by 7% and 12% to $930,405 and
$2,660,457 for the 2000 three and nine months, respectively, from $870,549 and
$2,384,011 for the 1999 three and nine months, respectively. As a percentage of
net sales, total research and development costs increased to approximately 14%
and 15% for the 2000 three and nine months, respectively, compared to 13% and
12% for the 1999 three and nine months, respectively. The increase in research
and development costs for the 2000 three and nine months resulted from a
decision by Bio-logic to recruit and retain the best available software
programmers, engineers and tester both in the U.S. and in Israel and Poland. The
Company believes this will enable it to continually emphasize new product
development along with feature enhancements on existing products.

     The Company had operating income of $466,882 and $85,912 for the 2000
three and nine months, respectively, compared to $567,127 and $2,446,445 for the
1999 three and nine months, respectively. The decrease in operating income for
the 2000 three and nine months was the result of lower net sales together with
higher selling, general and administrative costs and research and development
expenses.

     Net interest income increased to $235,569 for the 2000 nine months
compared to $160,944 for the 1999 nine months. This increase reflects higher
investment returns on money market accounts partially offset by higher overall
interest expense.

     The Company had income tax expense of $152,410 and $86,585 for the 2000
three and nine months, respectively, compared to $174,950 and $730,825 for the
1999 three and nine months, respectively. The Company's income tax rate differs
from the federal statutory rate of 34% due to the differences in foreign income
and its corresponding tax rates.

     The Company had net income of $391,912 and $222,650 or $0.09 and $0.05
per diluted share for the 2000 three and nine months, respectively, compared to
net income of $449,849 and $1,879,229 or $0.11 and $0.46 per diluted share for
the 1999 three and nine months, respectively. The Company attributes the lower
earnings in the 2000 periods to decreased net sales plus higher variable selling
cost, increase fixed costs associated with an expanded sales and customer
support network, plus continued investment in research and development costs.
