                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    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.  The
    accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes should be read
    in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
    included in the Company's 1994 Annual Report.

2.  INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended April 30, 1995
    are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
    year ending July 31, 1995.

3.  MARKETABLE SECURITIES

    Effective August 1, 1994 the Company adopted Financial Accounting
    Standard No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
    Securities.  All Company securities as of April 30, 1995 are classified
    as available-for-sale.

    Company operating cash investment objectives are principal security and
    a reasonable return.  Fiscal 1995 investments include U.S. Treasury
    securities, existing or former federal agency securities and high quality
    commercial paper, all with maturities of less than a year.

4.  HEART VALVE PATENT REVENUE

    The Company receives its heart valve patent payments from St. Jude Medical,
    Inc. at six-month intervals, approximately 60 days following June 30 and
    December 31.  Management estimates and records the revenue monthly and
    adjusts the estimate to actual upon receipt of the actual payment.  In
    the third quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company recorded a $215,000 revenue
    reduction to its previous estimate for the six month period ended
    December 31, 1994.

    Also during the third quarter of fiscal 1995, Possis Medical recorded the
    final royalties revenues from the heart valve patent sale and the sale of
    the pacemaker leads business.

5.  EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

    The Company's outstanding stock options and stock warrants were not
    included in the computation of earnings per share since the impact would
    have been anti-dilutive because of the net loss.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total revenues for the three and nine month periods ended April 30, 1995, are
64% and 49%, respectively, below those reported in the comparable periods last
year.  Medical product sales for the 1994 three and nine month periods included
approximately $489,000 and $2,333,000 in pacemaker leads sales, a business sold
by the Company in March 1994.  Early stage international sales of the Company's
three key products: the AngioJet Rapid Thrombectomy System, the Perma-Flow
Coronary Graft, and the Perma-Seal Dialysis Access Graft for the three and 
nine month periods ended April 30, 1995 were $154,000 and $218,000,
respectively, which were 413% and 73% above the same 1994 periods.  The 
Company expects international sales of its key products will build gradually
with physician use and acceptance, and believes sales will grow significantly
upon receipt of U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") marketing clearance.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain FDA
marketing clearance on a timely basis or at all.  In March 1995 the Company
recorded its final revenues from both the sale of its heart valve patents to
St. Jude Medical, Inc. and the sale of its pacemaker leads business to Innovex,
Inc.  In addition, the 1995 third quarter included a $215,000 negative heart
valve patent revenue estimate adjustment.  Included in 1994 third quarter
revenues is a $647,816 gain from the sale of the pacemaker leads business and
a $957,573 gain from the sale of Company real estate.  Other income shows
significant growth in 1995 primarily as a result of interest income generated
by the investment of the $7,200,000 net proceeds of the stock offering completed
in October 1994.

The cost of medical products for the three and nine months periods ended April
30, 1995, include approximately $850,000 and $2,300,000, respectively, of
production scale-up and start-up expense compared to $650,000 and $1,650,000,
incurred in the same periods last year.  All three key products incorporate
unique technology, production equipment and processes.  These expenses are
expected to decrease as the volume produced increases and as the Company gains
operating experience.

Selling, general and administrative expense in 1995 increased by $73,000 and 
$292,000 for the three and nine month periods, respectively, ended April 30,
1995.  The increase is due primarily to additional sales and marketing expenses
for personnel, travel, and associated expenses necessary to introduce the
Company's products into the international market.  Possis Medical anticipates
that sales and marketing costs will continue to grow with international sales
and the establishment of a direct sales organization in the United States.

Research and development spending decreased by $303,017 and $753,386 for the
three and nine month periods ended April 30, 1995, respectively.  The decline
in expense can be attributed to the discontinuance of pacemaker leads research
activity following the sale of the pacemaker leads business.  The Company
expects research and development expenses to increase from current levels as
the pace of its current U.S. clinical trials increases and as additional
products currently in development begin clinical trials.


                                      -5-
<PAGE>



Income from discontinued operations for the three and nine month periods
ended April 30, 1995, increased by $148,000 and $42,000, respectively,
from the comparable periods last year.  This increase is due partially to
$80,000 in expense reductions recognized during the 1995 three-month period
for the reversal of bad debt and warranty accruals related to the Jet Edge
business which was sold in January 1994.  In addition, income recognized
from the sale of the Company's Technical Services Division increased
$30,000 and $69,000, respectively, compared to the same periods last year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance of
$7,502,281 in April 30, 1995 increased significantly from the balance of
$1,769,348 at July 31, 1994.

Cash used in operating activities for the nine-month periods ended April
30, 1995 and 1994, were $1,061,000 and $1,234,000, respectively.  The 1995
cash usage resulted primarily from the net loss of $2,625,000 which was 
partially offset by the receipt of St. Jude royalty payments.  The net cash
used in operating activities for the nine-month period ending April 30,
1994 can be attributed to the operating loss, after adjusting for the gains
on the real estate sale and sale of the leads business.

Investing activity consumed $2,457,000 in the nine-month period ended April
30, 1995.  This usage is due primarily to the net purchase of short-term
marketable securities.  During the nine-month period ended April 30, 1994,
$4,301,000 was provided by investing activities.  In 1994 the Company
received $3,031,000 for the sale of various assets including the Jet Edge,
Inc. business, corporate real estate and the pacemaker leads business.

During the nine-month period ended April 30, 1995, approximately $6,943,000
was provided by financing activities.  The October 1994 issuance of
1,402,500 shares of common stock in a public offering generated net proceeds
of approximately $7,200,000.  In September 1994 the Company prepaid, at no
penalty, the remaining $500,000 balance on a $1,000,000 mortgage note due 
in May 1995.  In the first nine months of 1994, the Company reduced its 
long-term debt by $783,000.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company expects to receive its
final payments of royalties from the heart valve patent sale and the sale
of the leads business.  In recent years, the heart valve royalty payments
and the cash generated by the leads business have been the Company's
primary source of funds.  These cash streams will need to be replaced by
funds generated from the sale of the Company's three key products.

The Company expects to receive up to an additional $2,000,000 in payments
from C.R. Bard, Inc. during the next 12 months, pursuant to the Perma-Seal
Graft Supply and Distribution Agreement executed in December 1994.  In May,
the Company held a meeting of its Perma-Seal Dialysis Access Graft U.S.
clinical study investigators and received a written response from the FDA
to its 510(k) application filed in August 1994.  As a result, the Company
plans to continue the U.S. clinical study and will seek FDA permission to
introduce an already developed, and thinner-walled product into the study.
Possis Medical now expects to begin international sales of the Perma-Seal
                                      -6-
<PAGE>
  



Dialysis Access Graft in the first half of fiscal 1996 and anticipates FDA
marketing clearance and U.S. commercialization to begin in the second half 
of fiscal 1996.  Sales of the Company's products are expected to grow
significantly with increased acceptance in the international markets, as
well as in the domestic market upon marketing clearance from the FDA.  
There can be no assurance the Company's products will gain market
acceptance or receive marketing clearance from the FDA.

Cash usage is likely to increase over the next several quarters.  Increased
expenses associated with production scale-up, U.S. clinical trials for all
three key products, and selling and marketing are necessary in order to
accelerate product sales.  In addition, the Company will continue to invest
in capital assets to allow for production growth.

The Company anticipates reporting a significant loss for fiscal 1995 and a
smaller loss in fiscal 1996.  Possis anticipates that current capital
resources will allow operations to continue as planned for the next 12 to
15 months.  By that time, it is probable that the Company will need to 
raise additional funds through a debt or equity financing or in conjunction
with strategic alliances with third parties.  There can be no assurances 
that adequate funds will be available when needed or on acceptable terms.
If required funding is not raised, the Company may be forced to
substantially alter its planned operations.
