NOTE 3

The loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding.  Common stock equivalents including stock options and warrants
have not been considered in the calculation because they would be antidilutive.

NOTE 4

The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109).  SFAS 109 is an
asset and liability approach which required the recognition of deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts for financial statement purposes and
tax bases of assets and liabilities.

At June 30, 1995, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal
and state income tax purposes totaling approximately $15,392,000 and
$11,892,000 respectively, which begin to expire in 2006.  The Tax Reform Act of
1986 includes provisions which may limit the net operating loss carryforwards
available for use in any given year if certain events occur, including
significant changes in ownership.  A net deferred tax asset has not been
created for such loss carryforwards due to the uncertainty of future
realization.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
                     OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the third quarter of fiscal 1995 ended June 30, 1995, Trimedyne's net
revenues increased 3% from the same fiscal 1994 quarter ($3,521,000 vs.
$3,418,000).  For the current quarter, the Company incurred a loss from
operations of $933,000 compared to a loss from operations of $758,000 for the
year earlier period.  The net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, was
$852,000 as compared to a net loss of $594,000 in the same quarter of the
previous year.

Revenues for the current quarter were slightly higher than revenues in the same
quarter last year.  While sales of Urolase(R) side-firing laser catheters to
C.R. Bard, Inc. ("Bard") declined by $1,000,000 from the year ago quarter,
orthopedic sales increased by $1,295,000.  In the first nine months of this
year, sales of orthopedic products increased $2,440,000 over the first nine
months of the prior year, while sales of urology products to Bard in this
period declined by $1,940,000. Sales of orthopedic products have increased in
each of the last four quarters, and this growth is anticipated to continue. As
a result of the change in product mix from urology to orthopedic products,
which carry a lower profit margin, the Company's net loss was higher, despite
the increase in sales of orthopedics versus urology, in these periods.

Sales of Urolase(R) catheters have declined significantly in fiscal 1995
compared to fiscal 1994.  In June 1993, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) designated right angle laser devices as "investigational" in the
treatment of BPH, despite such devices having earlier been cleared by the FDA
for general urologic use.  The FDA's action caused Medicare reimbursement
authorities in many states to deny reimbursement for the use of such devices,
resulting in a decrease of Urolase(R) device sales to hospitals by Bard in these
areas.  Procedure codes for laser treatment of the prostate were published in
the Federal Register in December 1994, and fee schedules for laser treatment of
the prostate were recently established by the U.S. Government's Health Care
Financing Administration ("HCFA").  However, in the absence of specific FDA
approval to treat BPH, only about one-half of Medicare's disbursing
intermediaries are reimbursing hospitals and paying physicians for the use of
laser devices to treat patients suffering from BPH.  Bard built up a
substantial inventory of Urolase(R) Fibers in fiscal 1994 and has not placed any
further orders in fiscal 1995.  The company does not anticipate significant
revenues in urology products until the regulatory, reimbursement and marketing
issues are resolved.

Cost of goods sold was 58.1% of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1995 
compared to 53.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 1994.  The increase in cost 
of goods sold as percentage of sales was the result of the Company's product 
mix which shifted from urology to orthopedic products which carry lower profit 
margins and warranty costs associated with the introduction of the higher-
powered Holmium laser for use in orthopedics.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased slightly to $1,754,000
for the current quarter compared to $1,691,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1994.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was
primarily due to the higher commission expense attributed to increased
orthopedic product sales and expenses incurred in connection with patent
litigation.

Research and development expenditures for the quarter ended June 30, 1995,
increased slightly to $654,000 compared to $648,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 1994.  R&D spending in fiscal 1995 is expected to increase slightly
compared to fiscal 1994, as the Company continues to expand its development
efforts of Holmium and Neodymium YAG lasers and other products for use in
urology and  orthopedic applications.

For the quarter ended June 30, 1995, the Company reported a net loss of
$852,000 or $.09 per share, based on 9,451,701 weighted average number of
shares outstanding, compared to a net loss  of $594,000 or $.07 per share,
based on 9,096,701 weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year
earlier quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's working capital decreased from $14,829,000 at September 30, 1994
to $12,224,000 at June 30, 1995, of which $4,556,000 is cash and equivalents,
and marketable securities.  The Company's management believes that the current
level of cash and equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to
support its working capital requirements for at least the next two years.

Changes in Financial Condition

Cash and cash equivalents (including marketable securities) decreased by
$4,050,000 (47%) in the first three quarters of fiscal 1995.  The decline in
cash is attributed to the net loss ($2,892,000), increase in inventories and
other current assets and  purchase of  machinery and equipment offset by
improved accounts receivable collections of $277,000.

The Company invested $300,000 in machinery to support production activities.
Net inventories increased $758,000 (14%) from September 30, 1994 primarily due
to production increases to support the higher demand for orthopedic products
and increased demonstration inventory of Holmium lasers.  Other current assets
increased $307,000 from September 30, 1994, primarily due to deposits and
prepayments on asset purchases and general liability insurance.
