accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of Laser Photonics,

Revenues of the related operations were $252,000 and $405,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Loss from the related
operations was $337,000 and $287,000, respectively.
4. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
-------------------------
As of March 31, 1999, the Company issued to various investors securities
consisting of: (i) $2,380,000 principal amount of 7% Series A Convertible
Subordinated Notes (the "Subordinated Notes"); and (ii) common stock purchase
warrants to purchase up to 595,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Unit Warrants").
Interest accrued through June 15, 1999 is payable on June 15, 1999. The
principal amount plus interest accrued from June 15, 1999 is due on December 15,
1999 or upon subsequent equity financing which raises net proceeds of at least
$2,380,000. The Subordinated Note holders may convert the Subordinated Notes and
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, into shares of Common Stock at any
time prior to maturity into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of
$2.00 per share. The Subordinated Notes provide that the conversion price is to
be adjusted in the event that the Company issues share of Common Stock for
consideration of less than $2.00 per share. In such event, the per share
conversion price will be adjusted to the issue price of such additionally issued
shares of Common Stock.
The Unit Warrants are exercisable into an initial 297,500 shares of Common Stock
at any time after purchase until March 31, 2004. The balance of the Unit
Warrants are exercisable into an additional 297,500 shares of Common Stock (the
"Contingent Shares") if the Unit holder has voluntarily converted at least a
portion of the principal amount of the Subordinated Note that make up a portion
of the Unit into shares of Common Stock. The amount of Contingent Shares that
may be acquired by a Unit Warrant holder will be proportionate to the ratio of
the amount of principal of the Subordinated Notes which are converted into
shares of Common Stock over the original principal amount of the Subordinated
Notes. The exercise price of the Unit Warrants is $2.00 per share of Common
Stock. The Unit Warrants provide that they may be adjusted in the event that the
Company issues shares of Common Stock for consideration of less than $2.00 per
share. In such event, the per share exercise price of the Unit Warrants will be
adjusted to the issue price of such additionally issued shares of Common Stock.

Gross proceeds from the securities were $2,380,000. Of these proceeds, $396,667
has been allocated to the warrants. The market price of the Company's common
stock on the commitment date was $2.75 per share, resulting in a beneficial
conversion of $0.75 per share. The aggregate amount of the beneficial conversion
was $1,115,625. The discount on the notes related to the beneficial conversion
and warrants was charged to interest expense on the date of issuance.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
-------------------------------------------------------------------
and Results of Operations
-------------------------
With the exception of historical facts stated herein, the matters discussed in
this report are "forward looking" statements that involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
projected results. Such "forwarding looking" statements include, but are not
necessarily limited to, statements regarding anticipated levels of future
revenues and earnings from operations of the Company. Factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially include, in addition to other factors
identified in this report, reliance on a major customer, ability to
commercialize and market its products, and other risks factors detailed in the
Company's Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings including the "Risk
Factors" section in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1998. Readers of this report are cautioned not to put undue reliance on "forward
looking" statements which are, by their nature, uncertain as reliable indicators
of future performance. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to
publicly update these "forward looking" statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events, or otherwise.
Results of Operations
- - - - ---------------------
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999 decreased by $752,490 to
$347,010 compared to $1,099,500 in the prior period. The decrease was due to a
decrease in sales of scientific and medical lasers from the Company's Florida
and Massachusetts operations and the non-recurring milestone payment in the
prior period in the amount of $695,000 pursuant to the Baxter Agreement.
Gross margins were 12.4% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to
57.5% for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in gross margins
was due to reduced sales prices and unabsorbed overhead from reduced volumes in
1999.
Operating expenses decreased by $155,408 for the three months ended March 31,
1999 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998 due to reductions in
operations pending the sale of east coast operations.
Interest expense increased by $1,498,555 for the three months ended March 31,
1999 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998 The increase was the
result of the recognition of beneficial conversion feature on the notes payable
of $1,512,292.
Net loss increased to $2,511,196 for the three months ended March 31, 1999
compared to $569,797 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase in
the net loss was due to the increases in operating expenses and decreases in
revenues partially offset by reduction in operating costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - - - -------------------------------
As of March 31, 1999, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,416,297
which is an increase of $1,241,829 since December 31, 1998. The Company has
utilized cash generated from the sale of convertible notes payable to fund
marketing, research and development, and other operating activities, as well as
investments in operating assets to support anticipated sales of excimer lasers
to Baxter and to pay off certain liabilities.
Capital expenditures in the three months ended March 31, 1999 of $10,151 related
to purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements to support the excimer
laser operations.
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31,
1999 of $2,223,797 was due to the issuance of convertible notes payable for
proceeds of $2,380,000 and proceeds from the issuance of other notes offset by
debt issuance costs and principal payments on debt.
YEAR 2000
- - - - ---------
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's, or
its suppliers' and customers' computer programs that have date-sensitive
software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000. This could result in system failures or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business
activities.
The Company has developed plans to address issues related to the impact on its
computer systems of the year 2000. Financial and operational systems have been
assessed and plans have been developed to address systems modification
requirements. The financial impact of making the required systems changes is not
expected to be material to the Company's consolidated financial position,
liquidity or results of operations.
Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries has initiated formal communications
with significant suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which
those third parties' failure to remedy their own Year 2000 Issues would
materially effect the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company has not received
any indications from its suppliers and large customers that the Year 2000 Issue
may materially effect their ability to conduct business and the Company has no
current plans to formally undertake such an assessment.
