                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1 - Consolidation


         The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of CONMED
Corporation  ("the  Company")  and its  subsidiaries.  The Company is  primarily
engaged in the development,  manufacturing  and marketing of disposable  medical
products  and  related  devices.  All  significant   intercompany  accounts  and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2 - Interim financial information

         The statements for the three and six months ended July 1, 1994 and June
30, 1995 are unaudited;  in the opinion of the Company such unaudited statements
include  all  adjustments  (which  comprise  only  normal  recurring   accruals)
necessary  for a  fair  presentation  of  the  results  for  such  periods.  The
consolidated  financial  statements  for the year ending  December  29, 1995 are
subject  to  adjustment  at the end of the year  when they  will be  audited  by
independent accountants.  The results of operations for the three and six months
ended  July 1,  1994 and June 30,  1995 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the
results of  operations  to be  expected  for any other  quarter nor for the year
ending  December 29,  1995.  The  consolidated  financial  statements  and notes
thereto  should be read in conjunction  with the financial  statements and notes
for the years ended  December  31, 1993 and  December  30, 1994  included in the
Company's Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.

Note 3 - Earnings per share

         Earnings  per share was computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average  number  of  shares  of  common  stock  and  common  stock   equivalents
outstanding  during the quarter.  Common stock  equivalents  consisting of stock
options and warrants  totalled 183,000 and 187,000 for the three and six months,
respectively,  ended July 1, 1994 and  699,000 and 691,000 for the three and six
months, respectively, ended June 30, 1995.

Note 5 - Acquisitions

         On March 14, 1995, the Company acquired certain assets and the business
of Birtcher Medical systems for approximately  1,080,000 shares of CONMED common
stock valued at  $17,750,000  and the  assumption  of net  liabilities  totaling
approximately $9,300,000. Accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired
business are included in the  consolidated  results of the Company from the date
of  acquisition.  The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting.  Goodwill  is being  amortized  over a 40 year  period  while  other
intangible  assets are being  amortized  over  periods  ranging from five to ten
years.

         On May 22, 1995,  the Company  acquired the business and certain assets
and  liabilities of The Master Medical  Corporation for a cash purchase price of
approximately  $9,500,000.  The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting.  Goodwill and other intangible  assets are being amortized
over a 15 year period.

         The allocation of the purchase  prices for these  acquisitions is based
on management's  preliminary estimates;  it is possible that re-allocations will
be required  during the twelve  month  periods  following  the  acquisitions  as
additional information becomes available.  Management does not believe that such
reallocations will have a material effect on the Company's results of operations
or financial position.

         On an unaudited pro forma basis, assuming the purchases had occurred as
of the beginning of the period,  the  consolidated  results of the Company would
have been as follows: (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Note 6 - Stock split

         On November 22, 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company  declared a
three-for-two split of the Company's common stock, to be effected in the form of
a stock  dividend,  payable on December  27, 1994 to  shareholders  of record on
December  8, 1994.  Accordingly,  earnings  per share and the  weighted  average
number  of  shares  and   equivalents   outstanding,   have  been   restated  to
retroactively reflect the split.

Note 7 - Legal Matters

         The company has been informed that the appellate court  considering the
Company's appeal of a lower court's  $2,100,000 plus accrued interest award to a
competitor  in a  previously  disclosed  patent  infringement  matter  has  been
affirmed.  Adequate provision for the damage award was made in 1993. The Company
has paid the award in the quarter ended June 1995.

Item 2.

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


Three months ended June 30, 1995 compared to three months ended July 1, 1994

         Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 were $25,875,000, an increase
of 47.5% compared to sales of $17,547,000 in the quarter ended July 1, 1994. The
increase is a result of sales  volume  gains  resulting  from the  Birtcher  and
Master Medical acquisitions.

         Cost of sales also  increased  to  $13,498,000  in the current  quarter
compared  to the  $9,598,000  in the same  quarter  a year  ago as a  result  of
increased  sales  volume.  The gross margin  percentage  increased to 47.8% from
45.3%.  This  increase  is  substantially  a result of  increased  sales  volume
generating manufacturing efficiencies.

         Selling and administrative expenses increased to $6,779,000 compared to
$5,271,000 in the second quarter of 1994. This increase results from the effects
of  the  acquisitions.   As  a  percentage  of  sales,   however,   selling  and
administrative  expense declined to 26.2% from 30.0% in the comparable period of
1994.  This  decrease  results from  economies of scale and the  elimination  of
duplicate administrative and selling costs from the acquired businesses.

         Research and development  expense was $670,000 in the second quarter of
1995  compared  to  $577,000  in the second  quarter of 1994.  This  increase is
primarily  a result  of  growth  in the  Company's  research  activities  in its
surgical product lines.

         The second quarter of 1995 had interest expense of $501,000 compared to
interest  expense of  $158,000  in the  second  quarter  of 1994.  The  interest
increase results from the debt incurred as a result of the 1995 acquisitions.

         The provision for income tax increased in 1995 due to the higher income
before tax. The Company's  estimated  effective income tax rate was 36.3% in the
second quarter of 1995 compared to 35.0% in the second quarter of 1994.


Six months ended June 30, 1995 compared to six months ended July 1, 1994

         The Company  recorded net sales of $45,628,000 for the six months ended
June 1995,  compared to  $35,385,000  for the six months ended July 1, 1994,  an
increase of 28.9%.  The increase is substantially a result of the effects of the
acquisitions.

         The  Company's  gross margin was 46.9% for the first six months of 1995
compared to 44.6% for the first six months of 1994. The increase in gross margin
is a result of economies of scale due to the acquisitions.

         Selling and administrative costs have increased comparing the first six
months  of 1995 with the first  six  months  of 1994 due to the  effects  of the
acquisitions.  However,  as  percentage  of sales,  selling  and  administrative
expense  declined  to 26.6%  from  30.2% in the prior  comparable  period due to
economies of scale resulting from acquisitions.

         The Company  incurred  $695,000  in  interest  expense in the first six
months of 1995  compared  to  $305,000  in 1994.  This change is a result of the
effects of the debt incurred as a result of the 1995 acquisitions.

         The estimated  effective income tax rates were  approximately  35.8% in
the first six months of 1995 and 35.0% in the first six months of 1994.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Cash flows  generated or used by  operating,  investing,  and financing
activities  for the  first  six  months  of 1994 and 1995 are  disclosed  in the
consolidated  Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from operations were $512,000
for the first  six  months of 1995 and  $3,234,000  for the first six  months of
1994.  Operating  cash flows for the first half of 1995 were aided by higher net
income  compared to the same period in 1994.  Depreciation  and  amortization in
1995 were increased due to the effects of including  Birtcher and Master Medical
subsequent  to their  acquisitions.  First half 1995 cash flows from  operations
were negatively  impacted by increases in accounts  receivable,  inventories and
prepaid expenses and other assets. Payment of accounts payable,  accrued payroll
and the patent  litigation  award also reduced  cash flow.  Adding to cash flows
from operations were increases in accounts payable, income tax payable,  accrued
pension and other liabilities.

         Net cash used by investing activities was $13,435,000 in the first half
of 1995 compared to $1,003,000 in the first half of 1994. Business  acquisitions
utilized $10,451,000 of cash. Additions to property, plant and equipment for the
first half of 1995 totalled $2,984,000. Included in this amount was the purchase
of land and building in Rome,  New York  amounting to  $1,200,000  which will be
used by the Company for manufacturing expansion.

         Cash flows from financing  activities were $11,594,000 in the first six
months of 1995.  The Company  refinanced  its existing  bank debt,  as described
below,  and received  $26,590,000 in additional  proceeds.  Payments on debt and
other  obligations  included  $625,000  on the  Company's  debt,  $5,846,000  to
Birtcher's  bank to liquidate debt assumed in the  acquisition and $9,290,000 of
other Birtcher liabilities.

         Management  believes that cash generated from  operations,  its current
cash resources,  and funds  available  under its banking  agreement will provide
sufficient  liquidity to ensure  continued  working  capital for  operations and
funding of capital expenditures in the foreseeable future.

         The Company's  credit facility  consists of a $30,000,000  secured term
loan and secured  revolving line of credit of $10,000,000.  As of June 30, 1995,
$30,000,000 was outstanding  under the term loan and $5,340,000 on the revolving
line of credit.

         The term loan is payable over five years at an interest  rate of 1.625%
over LIBOR. The revolving line of credit terminates on April 1, 1998 and carries
an interest rate of 1.5% over LIBOR.
