LASER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
June 30, 1997
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB 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
only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the three months and the six months
ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the
year ended December 31, 1996 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB (file number 0-13316).
NOTE B - RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain 1996 financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform
to 1997 presentations. These amounts were not material reclassifications.
NOTE C - NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE
Net income (loss) per common and common equivalent share is computed using
the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding.
Common equivalent shares consist of the Company's stock options considered to be
dilutive common stock equivalents, determined using the treasury stock method.
Fully diluted earnings per share are the same as earnings per share for the
three months ended June 30, 1997. For all other accounting periods, fully
diluted earnings are antidilutive, and accordingly, are not presented.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Three months ended June 30, 1997.
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were $1,440,194 as
compared to $886,131 for the same period in 1996, an increase of $554,063 or
63%. This increase was primarily a result of increased laser product and
service sales to the Company's major original equipment manufacturer ("OEM")
customers. Sales to this consolidated group increased by 119% when compared to
the same period in 1996. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in
product and service sales to all other customers of 10%. The Company believes
that the increase in net sales resulted from the normal quarter to quarter
variations in product and service orders received from its OEM customers. OEM
customer orders are based in part on the end-user demand for customer products
which use or incorporate the Company's products and services.
Cost of products sold as a percent of Company net sales were 73% for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to 80% for the same period in 1996,
a decrease of 7%. This decrease was primarily the result of decreases in labor
and overhead cost percentages due to the increase in net sales.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 were $193,602 as compared to $138,706 for the same period in
1996, an increase of $54,896 or 40%. This increase was primarily the result
of pre-market advertising and other "start up" related costs of the Company's
new dermatologic and ophthalmic medical products.
Research and development expenditures for the three months ended June 30,
1997 were $99,143 as compared to $158,925 for the same period in 1996, a
decrease of $59,782 or 38%. This decrease was primarily a result of the
Company's decision to narrow its current engineering focus to that of laser-
based dermatology and ophthalmic medical systems and to a lesser extent the
product needs of certain of its OEM customers.
As a result of the increase in net sales, the decrease in the cost of goods
sold as a percentage of net sales, the decrease in research and development
expenditures which were partially offset by increases in costs relating to the
introduction of the Company's medical products, the Company recognized net
income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 of $84,919 or $.12 per share.
This compares to a net loss of $114,084 or $.17 per share for the same period of
1996, an improvement of $199,003.
<PAGE> Page 8 of 11
================================================================================
Six months ended June 30, 1997.
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $2,420,585 as
compared to $1,747,636 for the same period in 1996, an increase of $672,949
or 39%. This increase was primarily a result of increased laser product and
service sales to the Company's major original equipment manufacturer ("OEM")
customers. Sales to this consolidated group increased by 73% when compared
to the same six month period in 1996. This increase was partially offset by
a 20% decrease in product and service sales to all other customers. The
Company believes that the increase in net sales resulted from the normal quarter
to quarter variations in product and service orders received from its OEM
customers. OEM customer orders are based in part on the end-user demand for
customer products which use or incorporate the Company's products and services.
Cost of products sold as a percent of Company net sales were 76% for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to 81% for the same period in 1996,
a decrease of 5%. This decrease was primarily the result of decreases in labor
and overhead cost percentages due to the increase in net sales.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the six months ended June
30, 1997 were $382,687 as compared to $278,422 for the same period in 1996,
an increase of $104,265 or 37%. This increase was primarily the result of
pre-market advertising and other "start up" related costs of the Company's new
dermatologic and ophthalmic medical products.
Research and development expenditures for the six months ended June 30,
1997 were $269,384 as compared to $312,916 for the same period in 1996, a
decrease of $43,532 or 14%. This decrease was primarily a result of the
Company's decision to narrow its current engineering focus to that of laser-
based dermatology and ophthalmic medical systems and to a lesser extent the
product needs of certain of its OEM customers.
As a result of the increase in net sales, the decrease in the cost of goods
sold as a percentage of net sales, the decrease in research and development
expenditures which were partially offset by increases in costs relating to the
introduction of the Company's medical products, the Company recognized a net
loss for the six months ended June 30, 1997 of $74,949 or $.11 per share. This
compares to a net loss of $247,210 or $.36 per share for the same period of
1996, an improvement of $172,261.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
On June 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $2,086,187 as compared
to $1,653,962 at December 31, 1996, an increase of $432,225 or 26%. This
increase was primarily a result of the reclassification of $492,663 of notes
receivable from long term assets to current assets on the Company's balance
sheets. The notes receivable become due the first quarter of 1998. This
increase was partially offset by decreases in other working capital account
categories during the quarter ended June 30, 1997. Essentially all of the
Company's working capital requirements have been financed by internally
generated funds.
<PAGE> Page 9 of 11
================================================================================
Cash equivalents at June 30, 1997 were $297,630 compared to $555,204 on
December 31, 1996, a decrease of $257,574 or 46%. This decrease in the cash
equivalent balance was primarily the result of the Company's net loss for the
period ended June 30, 1997 and to increases in the accounts receivable and
inventory balances in excess of the increase in accounts payable and accrued
expense balances.
