NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission; accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1997, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
periods.
NOTE 2 - RESTRUCTURING AND UNUSUAL ITEMS
During the first quarter ended June 30, 1997, and second quarter ended
September 30, 1997, there were no significant changes in the restructuring
charges recorded March 31, 1997.
NOTE 3 - LINE OF CREDIT
At June 30, 1997, the Company had $1,000,000 of outstanding borrowings under
a line of credit with a commercial bank. The entire balance was repaid in
early July. The line of credit expired August 31, 1997, and the Company is
currently negotiating with several commercial banks to obtain more favorable
terms. The Company does not anticipate any problems in establishing a new
line of credit.
NOTE 4 - NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
The calculations of net earnings per common and common equivalent shares are
presented in the following table. All amounts are in thousands except per
share amounts.

NOTE 4 - NET EARNINGS PER SHARE CONT.
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, "Earnings per Share" ("FAS No. 128"). FAS No. 128 applies to entities
with publicly held common stock or potential common stock and is effective
for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997.
Under FAS No. 128 the presentation of primary earnings per share is replaced
with a presentation of basic earnings per share. FAS No. 128 requires dual
presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share for entities with
complex capital structures. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution
and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of
securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to fully
diluted earnings per share. Management believes the adoption of FAS No. 128
will not have a material effect on the financial statements.
NOTE 5 - CASH DIVIDEND
On August 27, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors declared an annual cash
dividend of $.10 per share on the Company's common stock. The dividend was
paid on September 26, 1997, to stockholders of record as of September 12,
1997.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales in the second quarter ended September 30, 1997, increased by $510,000,
or 3.2%, to $16,355,000. Cardiosurgery sales declined 25.1% and continue to
be impacted by the conclusion of the purchase agreement with C.R. Bard for
the Company's first generation oxygenator. In the second quarter of fiscal
1997, oxygenator sales to C.R. Bard represented 13.3% of Company sales.
Excluding the oxygenator sales from both years, revenues of our other
products increased by 15.7% compared to the second quarter of fiscal 1997.
The sales growth in other product lines is primarily attributable to a 16.8%
increase in reprocessing products combined with an 8.7% increase in dialysis
supplies and devices.
Sales for the six months ended September 30, 1997, increased by $1,580,000,
or 4.9%, to $34,110,000 from $32,530,000 in the prior year. The increase
results from 26.6% growth in reprocessing products combined with a 10.8%
increase in dialysis supplies and devices; partially offset by a 27.6%
decline in cardiosurgery sales. Excluding the oxygenator, sales of other
product lines increased by 17.6% over the first half of last fiscal year.
Net sales by product group are summarized on the following table:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CONT.
Gross profit for the second quarter ended September 30, 1997, was $6,805,000
or 41.6% of net sales, compared to $6,768,000 or 42.7% of net sales for the
quarter one year ago. For the six months ended September 30, 1997, gross
profit was $14,018,000, or 41.1% of net sales, compared to $14,070,000, or
43.3% of net sales for the same period one year ago. The decrease in gross
margins is due primarily to the decline in unit sales of oxygenators.
Research and development expenses for the second quarter totaled $631,000 or
3.9% of sales, compared to $829,000 or 5.2% of sales in the quarter one year
ago. For the six months ended September 30, 1997, expenses totaled
$1,330,000, or 3.9% of sales, compared to $1,654,000 or 5.1% of sales for the
same period one year ago. The Company expects that total research and
development expenses for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1998, will
approximate 4.5% of sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter ended
September 30, 1997, were $4,532,000 or 27.8% of sales, compared to $4,306,000
or 27.3% of sales in the second quarter one year ago. For the six months
ended September 30, 1997, selling, general and administrative expenses
totaled $9,207,000 or 27.0% of sales, compared to $8,407,000 or 25.8% of
sales for the same period one year ago. Selling, general and administrative
expenses have increased due to spending to support the Biocor-Registered
Trademark- 200 launch.
The Company's effective income tax rates for the second quarter and six
months ended September 30, 1997, were 27.5% and 33.4%, respectively, compared
to 48.6% and 44.4% for the same periods one year ago. The tax provision for
the quarter and six months year to date reflect a benefit for operating loss
carryforwards in our European subsidiary which lowers the Company's effective
tax rate.
The Company reported net earnings of $1,059,000, 6.5% of sales for the
quarter ended September 30, 1997, compared to earnings $781,000, or 4.9% of
sales in the second quarter one year ago. For the six months ended September
30, 1997, earnings were $2,092,000 or 6.1% of sales, compared to earnings of
$2,072,000 or 6.4% of sales for the same period one year ago. The increase
in net earnings for the quarter and six months are primary attributable to
the lower effective tax rates.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operating activities provided $2,485,000 and $4,903,000 of cash and cash
equivalents for the quarter and six months ended September 30, 1997,
respectively. At September 30, 1997, the Company had $4,555,000 of cash,
cash equivalents and marketable securities, an increase of $933,000 from
March 31, 1997. Working capital on September 30, 1997, was $22,160,000
compared to $19,237,000 as of March 31, 1997. The Company's current ratio at
September 30, 1997, was 3.8:1 compared to 2.8:1 at March 31, 1997.
Improvements in cash flow during the first six months enabled the Company to
pay off $2,000,000 of the outstanding balance on our domestic bank line of
credit in the quarter ended June 30, 1997, and the remaining $1,000,000
balance in the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The Company invested
$386,000 in capital equipment during the six months ended September 30,1997,
and expects to invest approximately $3,000,000 during fiscal 1998.
