              THE LANGER BIOMECHANICS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

May 30, 1998

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER MATTERS

A) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 Rule 10-01 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. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1998.

Operating results for the period ended May 30, 1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 28,
1999.

B) Income per Share

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are based
on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents (options and warrants) outstanding during the period, except where
the effect would be antidilutive, computed in accordance with the treasury stock
method.

C) Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes, on domestic operations, for the periods ended
May 30, 1998 and May 31, 1997, were calculated at an effective annual tax rate
of 2% and 4.5%, respectively, reflecting the utilization of available net
operating loss carryforwards and also taking into account the "Alternative
Minimum Tax". The provision for income taxes on foreign operations was estimated
at 25%.

NOTE 3 - SEASONALITY

Revenues derived from the Company's sale of orthotic devices, a substantial
portion of the Company's operations, have historically been significantly higher
in the warmer months of the year.

NOTE 4 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective March 1, 1998, the Company has adopted Statement Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which requires that all
items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be reported in the financial statements.
Prior periods will be reclassified, as required. The Company's total

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

Three months ended May 30, 1998, as compared with three months ended May 31,
1997.

Revenues
- --------

Sales of $2,536,631 for the first quarter ended May 30, 1998 were $21,346 or
0.8% above the prior-year's sales of $2,515,285. Sales of each major product
category remained at approximately equivalent levels compared to the prior
year's first quarter.

Gross Profit
- ------------

Gross profit for the current year's first quarter was $921,581 (36.3% of sales),
as compared to the prior-year's first quarter gross profit of $1,007,505 (40.1%
of sales). The decrease was due primarily to increased shipping costs incurred
to maintain turnaround times during an automation of the order entry process,
and an increase in the material cost for certain portions of the product mix.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
- --------------------------------------------

For the three months ended May 30, 1998, selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased $147, 379 or 15.0% to $837,141, from the prior-year's
comparable quarter of $984,520. Decreased promotion expenses and other direct
selling expenses, reflecting the Company's ongoing cost cutting strategy, along
with reduced consulting expenses, were responsible for the decrease from the
prior comparable period.

Research and Development Expense
- --------------------------------

The Company incurred no research and development costs for the three months
ended May 30, 1998 and May 31, 1997.

Other Income and Expenses
- -------------------------

Other income consists primarily of income generated from investments and service
charge income generated from the Company's accounts receivable. Net other income
was $34,680 for the first quarter of the current fiscal year as compared with
$20,924 in the comparable prior year's quarter, representing a 65.7% increase.
Most of the increase was due to a decrease in service charge write-offs.

Net Income
- ----------

The Company earned $116,150 or $.04 per share for the recently concluded quarter
as compared to a net income of $42,613 or $.02 per share generated in the prior
year's first quarter. The favorable results were primarily due to lower
operating expenses and increased other income, more than offsetting lower gross
profit versus the comparable prior fiscal period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Working capital, as of May 30, 1998, was $2,204,064 versus $2,090,290 at
February 28, 1998, an increase of $113,774. The increase was due to an increase
in accounts receivable of $226,594, as well as decreases in accounts payable,
other current liabilities and unearned revenue of $66,516, $101,685 and $12,425,
respectively. The increase was offset by an increase in accrued payroll
liabilities of $87,068 and decreases in cash, inventories, and other current
assets of $201,564, $3,507 and $1,307, respectively.

Cash balances at May 30, 1998 of $987,482 were $201,564 below the February 28,
1998 balance of $1,189,046. The decrease is primarily due to the increase in
accounts receivable of $226,594.

The Company believes its capital position is adequate to meet anticipated cash
needs for the next twelve months and beyond.
