1.    General
      -------

      The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by
      the Registrant, without audit, and include all adjustments which are, in
      the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
      results of operations for the three and six month periods ended December
      31, 1997 and 1996, financial position at December 31, 1997, and cash flows
      for the six month periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, pursuant to
      the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
      Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
      financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
      accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
      rules and regulations, although the Registrant believes that the
      disclosures in such financial statements are adequate to make the
      information presented not misleading. These condensed financial statements
      should be read in conjunction with the Registrant's consolidated financial
      statements and the notes thereto included in the Registrant's Annual
      Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K for
      the year ended June 30, 1997.

3.    Earnings per share
      ------------------

      Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common and,
      where dilutive, common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.
      Common equivalent shares include the potential dilution from the exercise
      of stock options and warrants, reduced by the number of common shares
      which are assumed to have been purchased with the income tax benefits and
      proceeds from the exercise of such instruments. Fully diluted earnings per
      share reflects additional dilution, from the assumed exercise of the
      dilutive common stock options at the beginning of the period.

      In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share. Statement 128
      replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per
      share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings
      per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of
      options, warrants, and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share
      is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per
      share. All earnings per share amounts for all periods have been presented,
      and where necessary, restated to conform to the Statement 128
      requirements.

4.    Acquisition
      -----------

      On September 13, 1995 the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the
      assets and technology of Creative Medical Development, Inc. ("CMD") a
      manufacturer of ambulatory infusion pumps and began to operate the
      business under a management agreement whereby Gish assumed the risks and
      rewards of the operation of the acquired assets until the closing date of
      the acquisition. The agreement provided for a payment of $600,000 in cash
      and $2,000,000 of Gish Biomedical, Inc. common stock for these assets. The
      Company assumed ownership of the net assets and technology acquired from
      CMD on April 17, 1996 and entered into a one-year lease for the building
      CMD occupied. The Company also executed one-year employee agreements with
      four key employees which included provisions for the issuance of up to
      53,500 shares of the Company's common stock to those employees upon
      completion of certain performance criteria.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations: On September 12, 1995 the Company entered into an
agreement to acquire the assets and technology of Creative Medical Development,
Inc. ("CMD") for $600,000 in cash and 240,240 shares of the Company's common
stock and assumed management of the assets and the risks and rewards from
operation of the assets to be acquired. Accordingly, the Company has included
revenue and costs related to the product lines acquired for the period September
13, 1995 through December 31, 1996 in the Company's financial statements.
Additionally, the Company upon closing of the transaction April 17, 1996,
entered into a one-year lease for the building which CMD currently occupies. The
Company ceased utilizing the facility during the quarter ended December 31, 1996
and was released from its lease obligation in February 1997.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997, due to the low level of infusion pump
sales and negative cash flow projections, the Company determined that the
unamortized goodwill of $1,824,200 associated with the purchase of the infusion
pump from CMD has little, if any future value. Accordingly, the Company recorded
an impairment of goodwill of $1.8 million in fiscal 1997 to write-off the
goodwill associated with this product line.

Sales for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1997 decreased by
$131,700, or 3%, and $126,600 or 1%, respectively, over the corresponding
periods of fiscal 1997. The decreases in sales for the three and six month
periods ended December 31, 1997 were primarily due to declinining average unit
selling prices of the Company's cardiovascular products.

In September 1997, the Company was informed by two of its major distributors,
Specialized Medical Systems (SMS) and CardioVascular Concepts (CVC), that they
were electing to terminate their distributor relationships with the Company
effective December 1997, subsequently renegotiated to February 1, 1998.
 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 SMS and CVC represented 15% and 7% of
the Company's total sales, respectively. However, the two distributors only
accounted for 12% and 5%, respectively, of the Company's gross profit for the
same period.

The Company engaged, during the three month period ended December 31, 1997 seven
direct sales persons to replace the two distributor sales organizations.

The conversion of these territories to direct sales representation should afford
the Company better marketing opportunities with respect to its new oxygenator.
Gish had previously excluded these two territories from its initial marketing
plan for the launch of its new Vision(TM) oxygenator because these distributors
represented a competing oxygenator product. With the conversion of these
territories to a direct sales force, the Company will be able to sell the
Vision(TM) in conjunction with custom tubing packs, cardioplegia systems,
cardiotomy reservoirs and oxygen saturation monitors without geographic
limitations.

The anticipated short term impact of this transition scheduled to take place in
third quarter of fiscal 1998 will be to reduce sales for the third quarter by
approximately $800,000, or 15%. The $800,000 in sales is the equivalent of sixty
days of inventory formerly carried by these distributors. This reduction is a
one time timing difference which will eventually be offset by increased selling
prices in those territories over the next year. Consequently the Company
anticipates a loss in the third quarter.

Cost of sales for the three month period ended December 31, 1997 was 71% of
sales as compared to 68% of sales for the corresponding period of fiscal 1997.
Cost of sales for the six month period ended December 31, 1997 was 70% of sales
as compared to 67% of sales for the corresponding period of fiscal

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

1997. The increases in cost of sales as a percentage of sales for the three and
six month periods ended December 31, 1997 were due primarily to decreases in
sales is primarily due to declinining average unit selling prices of the
Company's cardiovascular products.

Selling and marketing expenses for the three month period ended December 31,
1997 increased $278,000 or 30% as compared with the corresponding period of
fiscal 1997. Selling and marketing expenses for the six month period ended
December 31, 1997 increased $314.800 or 17% over the corresponding period of
fiscal 1997. These increases were primarily due to the engagement of seven new
direct salespersons for the territory being relinquished by two terminating
distributor sales organizations. The Company anticipates that its selling and
marketing expenses will increase to approximately $1,300,000 per quarter for the
remainder of the fiscal year.

Research and development expenses for the three month period ended December 31,
1997 decreased $68,300 or 19% compared to the corresponding period in fiscal
1997 and decreased $178,000 or 25% for the six month period ended December 31,
1997 over the corresponding periods of fiscal 1997. The decreases are due to the
completion of the Company's oxygenator development program and the elimination
of the engineering staff aquired with the CMD infusion pump. The Company is
actively engaged in several new product development projects, all of which will
continue to require expenditures approximating $350,000 per quarter for the
foreseeable future.

General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended December
31, 1997 remained constant at 9% of sales over the corresponding period of
fiscal 1997. General and administrative expenses for the six month period ended
December 31, 1997 decreased to 8% of sales over the corresponding period of
fiscal 1997. The decrease is due primarily to the cessation of amortization of
excess purchase price associated with the purchase of the assets of CMD of
approximately $50,000 per quarter. The Company anticipates that general and
administrative expenses should approximate $450,000 per quarter for the
remainder of the fiscal year.

The provision (benefit), for taxes is based upon a combined federal and state
effective tax rate of 39% for all periods presented.

Quarterly earnings (loss), per share is not directly additive for the periods
presented due to fluctuations in weighted average shares outstanding. These
fluctuations are attributable to the exercise of stock options and the treasury
stock method for determining the number of outstanding options to be included as
common stock equivalents. These fluctuations are more significant when there are
substantial variations in the market price of the Company's common stock.

The effects of inflation have not been a significant factor in the results of
operations. The cardiovascular surgery market has been experiencing pricing
pressures which have precluded the Company from considering price increases.

Liquidity and capital resources: At December 31, 1997, the Company had
$15,498,000 of working capital, an increase of $157,000 from working capital at
June 30, 1997. The increase is primarily due to normal fluctuations in the
operations of the business.

For the period ended December 31, 1997 cash used in operations of $380,800 was
primarily due to increases in inventory. This increase was primarily due to
stocking higher levels of inventory related to the expansion of the Company's
direct sales force. For the period ended December 31, 1996 cash provided by
operations of $365,300 was primarily due to operating income offset by increased
prepaids and payment of trade payables.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

For the period ended December 31, 1997 cash used in investing activities of
$159,400 was primarily due to purchases of property and equipment for the
manufacturer of new products. For the period ended December 31, 1996 cash used
by investing activities of $339,100 was primarily due to the purchase of
property and equipment for use in the manufacture of the Company's new
oxygenator.

For the period ended December 31, 1997 no cash was provided by financing
activities. For the period ended December 31, 1996 cash provided by financing
activities of 120,900 was primarily due to proceeds from the exercise of stock
options.

The Company believes that cash generated from operations together with available
cash will be adequate to meet the Company's planned expenditures and liquidity
needs for fiscal 1998.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements
that are based on current expectations. In light of the important factors that
can materially affect results, including those set forth below and elsewhere in
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the inclusion of forward-looking information
herein should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other
person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved. The Company
may encounter competitive, technological, financial and business challenges
making it more difficult than expected to continue to develop and market its
products; the market may not accept the Company's existing and future products;
the Company may be unable to retain existing key management personnel; and there
may be other material adverse changes in the Company's operations or business.
Certain important factors affecting the forward-looking statements made herein
include, but are not limited to (i) the lack of market acceptance of its
redesigned MyoManager or ambulatory infusion pump, (ii) continued downward
pricing pressures in the Company's targeted markets, (iii) the continued
acquisition of the Company's customers by certain of its competitors and (iv)
the decision by the Company to replace its distributor network with a direct
sales force in certain geographic territories. Assumptions relating to
budgeting, marketing, product development and other management decisions are
subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic
revisions based on actual experience and business developments, the impact of
which may cause the Company to alter its marketing, capital expenditure or other
budgets, which may in turn affect the Company's financial position and results
of operations. The reader is therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on
forwarding-looking statements contained herein, which speak as of the date of
this Report.
