NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

AMERICAN MEDICAL ELECTRONICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 1995

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The consolidated financial statements consist of the accounts of
         American Medical Electronics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries
         (the "Company").  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
         statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
         instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
         Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
         required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
         financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
         (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
         fair presentation have been included.  Results of operations for the
         three months ended March 31, 1995, are not necessarily indicative of
         the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
         1995.  For further information, refer to the financial statements and
         footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
         for the year ended December 31, 1994.

2.       EARNINGS PER SHARE

         Earnings per share are computed by dividing the net income for the
         period by the weighted average number of common shares and, when
         dilutive, common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.

3.       MARKETABLE SECURITIES

         The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for-sale
         and has approximately $8.8 million, $1.0 million, and $4.4 million
         invested in U.S. treasury notes, debt securities of U.S. corporations
         and obligations of U.S. government agencies, respectively.  Unrealized
         losses on marketable securities, net of taxes, were approximately
         $400,000 and $666,000 in 1995 and 1994, respectively.

         No interest was paid in the three months ended March 31, 1995.
         Interest paid in the three months ended March 31, 1994 was
         approximately $3,000.


6.        NON-RECURRING CHARGE

          In the first quarter of 1994, the Company recorded a pretax charge of
          $991,000 related to an employment contract dispute with its former
          president and chief executive officer.

7.        ACQUISITIONS

          In December 1994, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
          stock of Osteogenics, Inc., a development stage company that holds an
          exclusive license from the American Dental Association Health
          Foundation for technology to develop patented calcium phosphate
          formulations.  The Company is currently seeking FDA clearance to use
          the formulations for bone substitute applications.

          The principal terms of the acquisition included a cash payment of $1
          million at closing, the issuance of 405,000 shares of the Company's
          common stock, 255,000 at closing and 150,000 shares in January 1995,
          the issuance of a warrant to purchase up to 40,000 additional common
          shares at an exercise price of $10.50 per share and a $3.8 million
          note, $2.8 million of which is contingent upon the attainment of the
          milestones discussed below.  In addition, the Company has entered
          into consulting and non-compete agreements with the principal
          shareholders of Osteogenics, Inc. with an aggregate value of
          approximately $1.2 million.  Upon attainment of certain milestones
          related to the calcium phosphate formulations and the price of the
          Company's common stock, future consideration may be payable as
          follows:  110,000 shares of the Company's common stock plus
          additional common shares valued at $3.0 million on the date of
          issuance; and a warrant to purchase up to 160,000 common shares at
          exercise prices between $12.75 and $17.75 per share.

          The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase accounting
          method and generated a one-time charge to earnings for the purchased
          research and development of approximately $6.4 million in the fourth
          quarter of 1994.  Payment of the future consideration that is
          contingent on the attainment of the milestones would result in the
          Company recording goodwill.

8.        SUBSEQUENT EVENT

          On May 8, 1995 the Company announced it had signed a definitive
          agreement whereby Orthofix International N.V.  (Orthofix) would
          acquire the Company for $10 per share, to be paid in a combination of
          cash and Orthofix stock.  In addition, the Company's shareholders
          will receive the right to a pro-rata portion of contingent payments
          of up to $18 million, if certain revenues or earnings targets are met
          prior to December 31, 1997.  This acquisition is subject to approval
          by the shareholders of both companies and other customary closing
          conditions.  The boards of directors of both companies have approved
          the definitive agreement.  Under the terms of the agreement,
          approximately 43% of the total consideration will be paid in Orthofix
          shares and the remainder will be paid in cash.  The Company's
          shareholders will be able to choose to receive either cash or stock,
          subject to pro-ration in certain circumstances.  The Company also
          signed a one-year distribution agreement with Orthofix to distribute
          Orthofix products in the United States and Canada beginning June 1,
          1995.

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

Results of Operations

REVENUES:  Revenues for the three-months ended March 31, 1995 decreased 19%
compared to the same period in 1994 due primarily to a decrease of 24% in unit
rentals of the Company's pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) stimulation
devices that was partially offset by an increase of 5% in average realized
prices due to increased rentals of higher price Physio-Stim(R) bone growth
stimulator systems.  The Company believes revenues from rental of its PEMF
devices were, and continue to be, impacted by more rigorous cost containment
efforts by third-party payors, a decline in the growth rate of spine fusion
procedures due to those efforts, caution related to the regulatory and legal
environment surrounding certain aspects of spinal surgery and turnover in the
Company's direct sales force during the fourth quarter of 1994.

Revenues from the Company's discontinued fixation product line were
approximately $370,000 and $540,000 for the three-month periods ended March
31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  The Company expects revenues from this
product line to continue to decrease as it pursues its sale.

Revenues from the sale of Ogden(TM) Anchor soft tissue reattachment devices
increased to approximately $220,000 in the first quarter of 1995 compared to
approximately $87,000 for the first quarter of 1994.  During the quarter the
Company received Food and Drug Administration marketing clearances that added a
second size anchor to the product line and expanded the indications for use to
include additional applications in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, knee, ankle and
foot.  The Company expects an increasing trend in revenues from sales of its
Ogden Anchor systems as a result of these clearances and future clearances for
additional anchor sizes.

COST OF REVENUES:  Cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, increased to
29% for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995 compared to 23% for the
same period in 1994 principally due to higher per unit refurbishment costs,
lower production volumes, increased technological obsolescence expense and
increased royalty expense related to sales of Ogden Anchor systems.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE:  Selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased 9% for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995 compared
to the same period in 1994 due primarily to a reduction in costs directly
related to revenues such as allowance for doubtful accounts, commissions and
promotional expenses.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:  Research and development expenses, as a percent of
revenue increased to 10% for the three-month period ended March 31, 1995
compared to 8% for the same period in 1994 due primarily to expenditures
related to development of Osteogenics, Inc.'s technology acquired in December
1994.  The Company expects to continue research and development at a level that
will require expenditures of approximately 10% to 12% of revenues for the
balance of 1995.

INCOME TAXES:  The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before
income taxes increased to approximately 37% from 34% for the three-months ended
March 31, 1995 compared to the same period in 1994 primarily due to items which
are not deductible for federal income tax purposes.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's cash and marketable securities position at March 31, 1995, was
approximately $16.2 million.

For the remainder of 1995, the Company's primary source of funds is expected to
be cash from operations.  Cash from operations and the Company's cash and
marketable securities are
<PAGE>   9
expected to meet anticipated cash needs for the Company's existing operations,
including further research and development with respect to Osteogenics, Inc.'s
technology and commitments related to its acquisition by Orthofix, including
the commencement of distribution of external fixation products of Orthofix and
the addition of direct sales representatives for that purpose.  See Note 7 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

As discussed in Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the
Company has signed a definitive agreement to be acquired by Orthofix
International N.V. subject to approval by the shareholders of both companies
and other customary closing conditions.
