Notes to Financial Statements
The company has filed a restated annual form 10K-SB and accordingly, has
restated the financial results for the quarter ended 9/30/96 on this 10QSB. The
prior period Financial Statements have been restated to reflect the under
reporting of royalty receivables from a licensee. The restatement affected
royalty revenues and as a result the restatement was significant enough to
classify the company as a personal holding company requiring a significant tax
accrual at year end, a portion of which was also restated in this quarter.
On August 14, 1997 the Company entered into an agreement with a consulting firm
whereby the firm will help create a business plan and assist the Company to get
listed on a regional stock exchange. Hydromer is obligated for payment of a
$2,500 monthly fee to the firm, cancelable anytime. Additionally, upon certain
criteria being met, the firm is entitled to 150,000 warrants or the Company's
common stock at an agreed upon price. Mr. Brice is a partner in the firm.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting of only normal adjustments) necessary for a
fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
The Company's revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 were $506,105 as
compared to $528,595 for the same period last year, or down 4.3%. Revenue is
comprised of:
Royalty revenue from patented products grew to $352,720, up 7.0% over the
same period last year. There are 23 clients who use our patented
technologies on their products and this growth is purely from our client's
increased sales of their products. No new licensees were added during this
quarter. The company is currently testing other products that have
exclusive and non-exclusive licensing opportunities.
Product sales of our technologies were $153,385 for the quarter ended
September 20, 1997 as compared to $198, 853 for the same period last year,
or down 22.9%. This shortfall is primarily due to the loss of one contract
for condensation control in Italy. The Company's strategy is to intensely
develop the markets for its products and license opportunities.
The Company's gross profit was down 2.2% for the quarter ended September 30,
1997 to $447,291 from $457,394 for the same period last year.
Gross Profit percentage on product sales was 61.7% for the quarter ended
September 30, 1997 as opposed to 64.2% for the same period last year. This
drop is primarily due to the addition of production staff needed to
respond to the pressure of the market.
Royalty income is included in gross profit at 100%.
SG&A expenses increased $51,570 or 17.3% to $349,927, in the quarter ended
September 30, 1997, up from $298,357 for the same period last year.
This increase is attributable to management's recent program to evaluate
and upgrade staff where needed. The company needs to improve its
technical, marketing and financial expertise to respond to the
requirements of the business plan.
Earnings before interest and taxes were $97,364, down 38.8% from prior year's
results of $159,037.
Net earnings were $62, 934 for the quarter ended 9/30/97, down from $122,735
reported for the same period last year.
The company did not record an accrual for personal holding company taxes
as it will not be required to pay PHC taxes in FY 1997 due to operating
and strategic plans in place. For the quarter ended 9/30/96, the company
accrued $63,700 in personal holding company taxes which have been paid.
The company recorded a tax benefit for the quarter ended September 30,
1996 in the amount of $25,500. The quarter ended September 30, 1997
reflects a tax accrual for Federal and State taxes of $41,851.
