                       Report of Independent Accountants



September 30, 1995

To the Participants and Administrator
of the Medtronic, Inc. and Participating
Employers Supplemental Retirement Plan

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets of the Medtronic, Inc.
and Participating Employers Supplemental Retirement Plan at April 30, 1995 and
1994, and the changes in net assets for the years then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. 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 of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about 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, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. The additional information included in schedules I
and II is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the basic financial statements but is additional information required by
ERISA. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1--DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The Medtronic, Inc. and Participating Employers Supplemental Retirement Plan
(the Plan) is a defined contribution plan created by Medtronic, Inc. (the
company). It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The Plan provides for a regular savings program
whereby participants may deposit between 2% and 12% of their monthly salary. The
trustees of the Plan are Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (Vanguard Trust) and
First Trust National Association (First Trust), hereinafter referred to as the
"Trustees". In fiscal 1995 and 1994, the company paid certain administrative
expenses of the Plan.

The company matches at least 25% of the employee contribution, up to 6% of
compensation. The company may contribute additional amounts, up to an additional
75% of the amount contributed by the employee, if certain performance goals are
achieved.

A participant acquires a vested interest in the company contributions upon
completing one year of service, at which time the participant is 20% vested.
Additional vesting accrues at the rate of 20% per year thereafter. Participants
are 100% vested in their own contributions at all times. Participant forfeiture
of nonvested amounts reduce the company contribution. Employer matching
contributions of $168,187 and $523,827 during fiscal years 1995 and 1994,
respectively, were forfeited by terminating employees before those amounts
became vested.

Participants direct investment of funds allocated to their accounts.
Participants direct funds among eleven investments. The Wellington Fund, a
balanced fund, consists of common stocks and fixed income securities. The
Interest Income Fund consists of deposits with insurance companies at fixed
rates of return. The Medtronic, Inc. Stock Fund consists of holdings in
Medtronic, Inc. common stock. The Vanguard 500 Portfolio Index Trust Fund
consists of stocks comprising the Standard and Poor's 500 Index. The Vanguard
Explorer Fund is an aggressive growth fund consisting of common stocks of small
companies. The Vanguard Prime Portfolio consists of high-quality money market
instruments. The Windsor II Fund, a growth and income fund, consists of common
stocks that, in the opinion of the investment advisor, are undervalued in the
marketplace. The Bond Market Fund is a bond fund that seeks to parallel the
performance of an established Bond Index. The Vanguard Wellesley Income Fund, a
balanced fund, invests in corporate bonds and stocks with above average dividend
yields. The Vanguard Prime Cap Fund consists of stock, that in the opinion of
the investment advisor, have strong earnings growth potential. The Vanguard
International Growth Portfolio, an international stock fund, consists of
non-U.S. stocks selected for their appreciation potential.

Termination or retirement benefits are paid by the Trustees in accordance with
the provisions of the Plan and the instructions of Medtronic, Inc., acting as
plan administrator. In the event the Plan were terminated, participants become
fully vested and the company would cause all amounts in the hands of the
trustees to be allocated and distributed to the participants based upon their
investment balance.


NOTE 2--PROFIT SHARING PLAN MERGER

Effective August 16, 1993, the Medtronic, Inc. and Participating Employers
Profit Sharing Plan was merged into the Plan. This is reflected in the Statement
of Changes in Net Assets as a transfer of assets. Participants in the former
Profit Sharing Plan can choose to invest their balances within the same
investment options described above (Note 1).


NOTE 3--SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting.

Valuation of Investments

Investments are stated at fair value as determined by the Trustees or the active
market, except guaranteed investment contracts which are valued at contract
value.

Valuation of Participant Loans

Participant loans receivable are valued at cost which approximate fair value.

Investment Activity

Interest and dividend income consists of amounts earned on investments in the
Plan's separate trust held by Vanguard Trust. Other investment income consists
of the Plan's interest in the activity of the master trust (Note 4) and the
realized and unrealized gains and losses of the separate trust.


NOTE 4--TRUSTEES

Vanguard Trust maintains all assets of the Medtronic, Inc. and Participating
Employers Supplemental Retirement Plan, excluding certain deposits with
insurance companies held by the Master Trust. Assets of the Master Trust include
certain assets of the Plan, the Medtronic, Inc. and Participating Employers
Retirement Plan (Pension Plan), the Medtronic, Inc. Employees Stock Ownership
Plan (ESOP) and the Andover Medical Incorporated Retirement Savings Plan.

Vanguard Trust is recordkeeper of the Plan assets held by Vanguard Trust.
Vanguard Trust maintains a separate account in the name of each participant in
the Plan to record the assets allocated to the participant and the earnings,
losses, disbursements and expenses credited thereto. Medtronic, Inc. and First
Trust act as recordkeeper for the remaining assets held in the master trust.
