1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by Criticare
Systems, Inc. (the "Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the opinion of the Company,
include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results for each
period shown.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules
and regulations.  The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate
to prevent the financial information given from being misleading.  It is
suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual

                    Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
                 Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996 decreased 7% to $6.5
million from $7.0 million for the same period in fiscal 1996.  Domestic
Hospital sales decreased approximately $481,000 due to lower Maestro telemetry
ECG monitors, lower Model 100 Vital Signs Monitors and lower accessory sales
due primarily to continued managed care and competitive pricing pressures in
the domestic hospital industry.  Alternate Care sales decreased approximately
$189,000 due to lower oximeter and accessory sales caused by increased
competitive pricing in the non-hospital market. International sales increased
approximately $190,000 related to sales of the "Scholar" and "Scholar II" Vital
Signs monitors introduced in the second quarter of fiscal 1996.

The gross profit percentage of 48% for the three months ended September 30,
1996 was equal to the 48% gross profit percentage incurrred in the three months
ended September 30, 1995; however, the lower sales volume resulted in a
$188,000 lower gross profit amount for the three months ended September 30,
1996.

Operating expenses declined approximately $236,000, or 8% for the three months
ended September 30, 1996 when compared with the same period in fiscal 1996.
Marketing expenses declined approximately $246,000, or 11%, when compared to
the same period in fiscal 1996 due to lower trade show, advertising, sales
promotion and commission expenses.  Research, development and engineering
expense increased approximately $50,000, or 10%, due to increased project
expense related to MPT/VitalView product development.  Administrative expenses
declined approximately $41,000, or 9%, related to lower payroll, insurance and
consulting expenses incurred in the three months ended September 30, 1996 when
compared to the same period in fiscal 1996.

Non-operating expenses were $178,243 and $74,533 for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The increase resulted from reduced
interest income due to lower invested cash balances, increased interest expense
related to borrowing against the Company's line of credit, increased interest
expense related to the note issued upon the acquisition of Immtech stock and
advances to Immtech during the three months ended September 30, 1996.

                 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
                 Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995


Net income of $51,403 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 compares to
net income of $64,118 for the three months ended September 30, 1995.

During the three months ended September 30, 1996 the Company was able to reduce
accounts receivable balances by approximately $1,440,000 and limit inventory
increases to approximately $130,000.  Accounts payable declined approximately
$928,000, accrued liabilities declined approximately $154,000, and short term
borrowings under the commercial line of credit declined $400,000 during the
three month period ended September 30, 1996.  The Company believes its
marketing and research and development activities and other capital and
liquidity requirements will be satisfied by cash generated from operations and
utilization of a commercial line of credit of up to $4,000,000 which was
recently renewed for a one-year period (November 1, 1996 through October 31,
1997) by its bank.
