                NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    (Unaudited)

1.  Basis of Presentation

The information contained in the consolidated financial statements and 
footnotes is condensed from that which would appear in the annual 
consolidated financial statements.  Accordingly, the condensed consolidated 
financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with 
the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto contained in 
the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 27, 1997, and 
Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended September 26, 1997, filed 
by Sunrise Medical Inc. (the "company") with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission.  The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of 
December 26, 1997 and for the thirteen-week and twenty-six week periods ended 
December 26, 1997 and December 27, 1996 include all adjustments (consisting 
of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair 
presentation.  The results of operations for interim periods are not 
necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire 
year.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and 
accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.  Inventories

Certain inventories are stated at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost 
or market value.  All other inventories are stated at the lower of the 
first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market value.  Inventories consist of the 
following (in thousands):

Interim period inventory classifications involve a degree of estimation due 
to the timing of physical inventories throughout the fiscal year.

3.  Debt

On October 28, 1997, the company completed a private placement of $100 
million of senior notes, $50 million maturing after seven years, bearing 
interest at 7.09% and the remaining $50 million maturing after ten years at 
an interest rate of 7.25%.  The proceeds of this debt issuance were used to 
reduce the outstanding debt on the company's unsecured multi-currency credit 
facility.  As a result of this placement, the maximum borrowing commitment 
currently available under the company's multi-currency credit facility has 
also been reduced by $100 million to $150 million.

SUNRISE MEDICAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 1.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REPORTING UNITS

The company reports its operating results using three groupings: Home 
Healthcare Group ("HHG"), Continuing Care Group ("CCG") (both based in North 
America) and Sunrise Medical Europe.  HHG is comprised of three divisions:  
Mobility Products, Personal Care Products and Respiratory Products.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED DECEMBER 26, 1997 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED 
DECEMBER 27, 1996

NET SALES

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 were $165.3 million compared 
to $169.7 million in the comparable period of fiscal 1997, a decrease of 3%.  
Sales grew 2% after excluding the 3% negative impact of foreign currency 
translation and the 2% effect of the company's divestiture of its consumer 
business in October 1996.

The Home Healthcare Group's sales increased 6% in the second quarter of 
fiscal 1998 to $75.9 million, compared to $71.7 million in the second quarter 
of fiscal 1997.  Volume increases in sales of Mobility and Personal Care 
Products were slightly offset by the volume decline in respiratory products 
and modest average selling price declines across all three product lines. 
Respiratory product sales were impacted by changes in customer buying 
patterns in anticipation of the 25% cut in Medicare oxygen reimbursement 
effected on January 1, 1998. 

The Continuing Care Group recorded sales of $22.1 million in the second 
quarter of fiscal 1998, a decline of 10% from sales of $24.5 million in the 
comparable period of fiscal 1997.  The decline was primarily attributable to 
a decrease in unit volumes, although average selling prices did decrease 
slightly. Sales in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 increased 7% over first 
quarter 1998 in part due to a 2% decrease in the backlog reported in the 
first quarter of fiscal 1998.

In Europe, sales were $67.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998, 
compared to $69.6 million in the comparable period of fiscal 1997, a decrease 
of 3%.  Sales grew 5% after excluding the negative 8% impact from foreign 
currency fluctuations.  The company's businesses in the U.K., France, Spain, 
and its European distribution group all had sales growth, however, revenues 
in Germany declined due to legislative changes in healthcare reimbursement.  
European sales results were substantially driven by unit volume increases 
over the prior year as overall average selling prices remained fairly 
constant.

</TABLE>

Gross profit of $50.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 was $4.0 
million below the $54.6 million recorded in the comparable period of fiscal 
1997.  Gross margin, or gross profit as a percentage of net sales, decreased 
by 1.6% to 30.6% as a result of pricing and a shift in the mix of product 
sales to lower margin products.  In addition, negative foreign exchange rate 
impacts resulting primarily from the increase in the pound sterling versus 
other European currencies have reduced margins on Sunrise U.K. manufactured 
products sold in continental Europe. 

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 
fiscal 1998 were 23.5% of net sales compared to 24.1% in the second quarter 
of fiscal 1997. Company-wide operating cost containment measures led to the 
decrease.

Research and development expenses increased to 2.3% of net sales or $3.8 in 
the second quarter of fiscal 1998 as compared to 2.2% of net sales or $3.7 
million in fiscal 1997.

Re-engineering expenses were $7.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 
1998. These period expenses are related to the re-engineering and facilities 
consolidation program costs announced in fiscal 1997.  Expenses include:  the 
cost of relocating the company's Simi Valley, California plant to Tijuana, 
Mexico; underabsorbed overhead variances, labor inefficiencies, and temporary 
duplicate facilities costs related to the U.K. plant consolidations; and 
costs of new and upgraded management information systems.  

Interest expense for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 was $4.0 million or 4% 
higher than interest expense of $3.9 million in the second quarter of the 
prior year, attributable to higher average borrowings and a slight increase 
in interest rates. 

Interest and other income/expense, increased to $6.4 million compared to $0.8 
million in the second quarter of the prior year.  Substantially all of the 
increase relates to a favorable settlement of patent infringement litigation 
and a gain on the sale of property in the U.K. 

The effective tax rate of 61% in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 was higher 
than the rate of 48.0% in the same period of fiscal 1997, principally as a 
result of non-deductible goodwill amortization representing a greater portion 
of income before income taxes.

<PAGE>

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 was $0.4 million, or $0.02 
per share, compared to net income of $2.5 million, or $0.13 per share in the 
second quarter of fiscal 1997.

TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED DECEMBER 26, 1997 COMPARED TO TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED 
DECEMBER 27, 1996

NET SALES

Net sales for the first half of fiscal 1998 were $316.4 million compared to 
$335.1 million in the comparable period of fiscal 1997, a decrease of 6%.  
Sales grew 2% after excluding the 4% negative impact of foreign currency 
translation and 4% effect of the company's divestiture of its consumer 
business in October 1996.

The Home Healthcare Group's sales increased 6% in the first half of fiscal 
1998 to $144.6 million, compared to $136.0 million in the first half of 
fiscal 1997. Increased unit volume in all product lines with the exception of 
Respiratory products accounted for most of the growth as the competitive 
pricing environment continued to negatively affect average selling prices. 

The Continuing Care Group recorded sales of $42.7 million in the first half 
of fiscal 1998, a decline of 12% from sales of $48.5 million in the 
comparable period of fiscal 1997.  All product lines experienced decreased 
unit volumes and average selling prices also declined slightly.  

In Europe, sales grew 3%  to $129.1 in the first half of fiscal 1998, after 
excluding the negative 9% impact from foreign currency fluctuations, compared 
to $136.7 million in the first half of fiscal 1997. The company's businesses 
in the U.K., France, Spain, and its European distribution group all had sales 
growth, while revenues in Germany declined due to significant reimbursement 
pressures.  Total European sales results were substantially driven by unit 
volume increases over the prior year as overall average selling prices 
remained fairly constant.

</TABLE>

Gross profit of $98.9 million in the first half of fiscal 1998 was $10.2 
million below the $109.1 million recorded in the comparable period of fiscal 
1997.  Gross margin decreased by 1.3% to 31.3% as a result of similar trends 
to those described above for the second quarter, namely pricing, product mix 
shifts and negative foreign currency rate impacts.

<PAGE>

Marketing, selling and administrative expenses were 23.4% in the first half 
of fiscal 1998 compared to 24.4% in the first half of fiscal 1997. Included 
in the first half of 1997 were one-time costs of $1.4 million related to the 
company's sponsorship of the 1996 Atlanta Paralympic Games and $2.1 million 
of expenses incurred at the company's consumer business, which was divested 
in October 1996.

Research and development expenses increased to 2.4% of net sales or $7.7 
million in the first half of fiscal 1998 as compared to 2.1% of net sales or 
$7.0 million in fiscal 1997.   This increase reflects the company's renewed 
focus on new technologies and enhancements as facilities consolidations near 
completion.  

In the first half of fiscal 1998, re-engineering expenses totaled $11.7 
million. The same amounts as described previously for the second quarter are 
also included in the year-to-date amount. 

Interest expense for the first half of fiscal 1998 was $7.4 million or 6% 
lower than interest expense of $7.9 million in the first half of the prior 
year, attributable to lower average borrowings partially offset by a slight 
decrease in average interest rates. 

Interest and other income/expense, increased to $7.8 million compared to $2.3 
million in the first half of the prior year.  Substantially all of the 
increase relates to a favorable settlement of a patent infringement lawsuit 
and a gain on the sale of property in the U.K.   

The effective tax rate of 57.2% in the first half of fiscal 1998 was higher 
than the rate of 48.0% in the same period of fiscal 1997 as non-deductible 
goodwill amortization represented a greater portion of income before income 
taxes.

Net income for the first half of fiscal 1998 was $0.8 million, or $0.04 per 
share, compared to net income of $5.5 million, or $0.29 per share in the 
first half of fiscal 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  

During the first half of fiscal 1998, the company's working capital increased 
by $7.2 million to $109.4 million.  Cash provided by operating activities 
was $4.1 million, compared to $29.1 million in the first half of fiscal 1997. 
 Cash provided by operating activities in 1997 included $15 million from 
income tax refunds and $10 million from the increase in accounts payable and 
other liabilities.  Purchases of property and equipment were $10.6 million, 
down from $13.5 million in the 1997 period.  Long-term debt decreased by $1.5 
million in the first half of fiscal 1998.

The company recorded pre-tax charges from unusual items of $65.2 million in 
fiscal 1996.  Of these charges, approximately $36.2 million required cash 
payments and $29.0 million represented non-cash charges.   A total of $28.7 
million of the cash amounts had been paid by June 27, 1997, and an additional 
$3.5 million was paid during the first half of fiscal 1998.  Substantially 
all of the $4.0 million balance of cash charges is expected to be paid over 
the next nine months.

IMPACT OF INFLATION  

Inflation did not have any significant effect on the company's operating 
results in the first half of fiscal 1998.
