                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  June 30, 1999


1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Organization and Business

The Company was  incorporated  under the laws of the State of Nevada on December
30, 1987. The Company was originally incorporated as Downey Industries, Inc. and
changed its name to ZEVEX  International,  Inc. on August 15, 1988.  In November
1997 the Company  reincorporated  into  Delaware.  During  1998,  the  Company's
operations consisted of the business of its wholly-owned subsidiary, ZEVEX, Inc.
In December 1998, the Company acquired an additional  product line and completed
the  acquisition of two additional  subsidiaries,  Aborn  Electronics,  Inc. and
JTech  Medical  Industries,  Inc.  The Company and its  subsidiaries  design and
manufacture  advanced  medical  devices,   including  surgical  systems,  device
components,  and sensors for medical and industrial  technology  companies.  The
Company and its  subsidiaries  also  design,  manufacture,  and market their own
medical  devices  using  proprietary  technologies.  The  Company's  design  and
manufacturing  service  customers are primarily  medical  technology  companies,
which sell the Company's systems and devices under private labels or incorporate
the Company's devices into their products.

Principles of Consolidation

The  consolidated  balance sheet at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 includes
the  accounts  of  ZEVEX  International,  Inc.  (Company)  and its  wholly-owned
operating subsidiaries,  ZEVEX, Inc., Aborn Electronics, Inc., and JTech Medical
Industries,  Inc. The consolidated  statement of operations excludes the results
of Aborn and JTech  for June 30,  1998,  because  these  two  acquisitions  were
consummated   effective  as  of  December  31,  1998.  At  June  30,  1998,  the
consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of ZEVEX International,
Inc.  (Company)  and its  wholly-owned  operating  subsidiary  ZEVEX,  Inc.  All
significant  intercompany  balances and  transactions  have been  eliminated  in
consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The  accompanying  financial  statements  have been prepared in accordance  with
generally accepted accounting  principles for interim financial  information and
with the  instructions  to Form 10-Q of  Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  certain
information and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in complete  financial
statements have been condensed or omitted.  These financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on SEC Form 10-K.

In the  opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments  (consisting  of  normal  and
recurring  adjustments)  considered  necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.  The results of operations  for interim  periods are not indicative of
the results of operations to be expected for a full year.




2.  Bank Line of Credit

The Company renewed its line of credit arrangement with a financial  institution
for $5  million.  The  line  matures  on May 31,  2000.  The line of  credit  is
collateralized  by accounts  receivable  and inventory and bears interest at the
prime rate, 7.75% at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998. The Company's  balance
on its line of credit was $149,000 at June 30, 1999 and $441,993 at December 31,
1998.  Under  the line of credit  agreement,  the  Company  is  restricted  from
declaring cash  dividends.  In addition,  the Company's line of credit  contains
certain financial covenants.  As of June 30, 1999, the Company was in compliance
with these financial covenants.

In  addition,  JTech  had a line of  credit  with a  financial  institution  for
$150,000.  The line bore  interest  at the prime rate plus 1% (8.75% at December
31, 1998) that matured on March 15, 1999 and was not renewed.  The balance under
this line of credit was $100,000 at December  31,  1998.  The line of credit was
collateralized  by all of the assets of JTech and contained  certain  covenants.
JTech was in compliance with the debt covenants at December 31, 1998.

3.  Repurchase of Common Stock

On June 14, 1999,  the Company  repurchased  470,0000  outstanding  Common Stock
Warrants for  $1,175,000.  On February 4, 1998,  the Company  repurchased  6,700
shares of outstanding Common Stock for $50,790. The Company anticipates that all
the shares will be contributed to the Employees' Stock Ownership Plan.

4.  Related Party Transactions

On December 31, 1998,  the Company  acquired  JTech pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement among the Company and the four shareholders of JTech (the "JTech Stock
Purchase").  Leonard C. Smith, one of the selling JTech  shareholders,  received
$1,257,900  in cash and a  convertible  debenture in  connection  with the JTech
Stock  Purchase.  The  convertible   debenture,   in  the  principal  amount  of
$1,290,000,  is due January 6, 2002 and is  convertible  at Mr.  Smith's  option
during the period from January 6, 2000 to January 6, 2002 at $11 per share.

JTech also entered into an  Employment  Agreement  with Leonard C. Smith,  dated
December 31, 1998, which provides that Mr. Smith serve as President of JTech for
three  years at a salary  of  $100,000  per  year.  Pursuant  to the  employment
agreement,  Mr. Smith also  received an option to purchase  40,000 shares of the
Company's  common  stock,  vesting  over four  years,  at $4.875 per share,  the
closing  price of such stock on Nasdaq on the date of the JTech Stock  Purchase.
Mr. Smith was appointed to fill a vacancy on the  Company's  Board of Directors,
effective  April 26, 1999. Mr. Smith's term on the Board will expire at the 2001
annual meeting of shareholders.

On April 15, 1997, the Company entered into a consulting  agreement with another
company owned by certain  stockholders to provide  services related to strategic
planning, public relations,  financing and potential acquisition of new products
or companies. Under the consulting agreement, the Company paid an initial fee of
$50,000, and pay $10,000 per month for two years. The agreement expired in April
1999.  In addition,  these certain  stockholders  have the right to nominate one
director to the Company's Board of Directors. The certain stockholders exercised
this right  with its  nomination  of Kirk  Blosch in June  1998.  Mr.  Blosch is
serving a 3-year term as a director, which term expires at the annual meeting of
shareholders in June 2002.

5.       Comprehensive Income

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income".  SFAS No. 130
requires that all items recognized  under accounting  standards as components of
comprehensive  income be  reported  in an  annual  financial  statement  that is
displayed with the same prominence as other annual  financial  statements.  This
statement  also requires that an entity  classify  items of other  comprehensive
income by their nature in an annual  financial  statement.  Other  comprehensive
income may include  foreign  currency  translation  adjustments,  and unrealized
gains and losses on marketable securities classified as available-for-sale.  For
the six months  ending  June 30,  1999,  SFAS No. 130 would  have  required  the
Company to show comprehensive  income of $93,609 (net of tax effect) higher than
net income reported on the Company's financial statements.

6. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998:

period  by  the   weighted-average   number  of  the  Company's   common  shares
outstanding.

Diluted net income per common share  includes the dilutive  effect of options in
the  weighted-average  number of the  Company's  common  shares  outstanding  as
calculated using the treasury stock method.

revenues  for the second  quarter of 1999.  Fifty-six  percent of the  Company's
revenues in the second quarter 1999 were products,  which are  manufactured  for
and sold to OEM customers,  who market the final product.  Fifty-one  percent of
the first six months  revenues were sold to OEM customers,  who market the final
product.  The  Company's  manufacturing  revenue  growth  depends upon growth in
demand for systems,  devices and instruments  manufactured by ZEVEX, and ZEVEX's
ability to acquire  additional  manufacturing  service  contracts  from  medical
technology  companies.  ZEVEX's contract  manufacturing  customers have complete
control over the  marketing and sales of products  that ZEVEX  manufactures  for
them.  ZEVEX  has  no  ability  to  increase  demand  for  instruments  that  it
manufactures  for its  contract-manufacturing  customers.  No assurances  can be
given that orders from any customer will increase or remain at current levels or
that they will not decline.

The Company's gross profit as a percentage of revenues was approximately 45% for
the three months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to 49% for 1998. Gross profits
for six months  were 47% for 1999 and 46% for 1998.  Management  attributes  the
decrease in the second quarter mainly to lower margin  engineering  services and
instrument proto-type manufacturing.  Management attributes the increase for the
six-month  period  to  an  increase  in  revenues   relating  to  the  Company's
proprietary products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30,
1999, increased $562,553, from $1,045,167 in 1998 to $1,607,720 in 1999. For six
months  ended June 30,  1999,  selling,  general  and  administrative  increased
$1,305,404  from  $1,875,711 in 1998 to $3,181,115 in 1999.  Increased  expenses
resulted from the Company's continuing growth, which has resulted primarily from
the acquisitions of JTech and Aborn. An expanded sales and marketing effort also
increased staffing,  travel,  advertising and administrative expenses related to
the enteral feeding and JTech product lines. The Company also had an increase in
expenses related to employees,  such as insurance,  taxes, and pension benefits.
The  Company  believes  that  general and  administrative  expenses in 1999 will
continue at  approximately  the same  percentage of sales as in the previous two
years.

Research and development  expenses vary from quarter to quarter depending on the
number and nature of pending research and development projects and their various
stages of  completion.  For the three months  ended June 30, 1999,  research and
development expenses were $169,683,  compared to $51,890 in 1998. For six months
ended June 30, 1999, research and development  expenses were $298,745,  compared
to $155,974  for 1998.  Significant  fluctuations  experienced  in research  and
development are due to the timing of the Company's research  projects.  Expenses
incurred  during the second  quarter were for the continued  development  of new
applications of the Company's  ultrasound  technology and proprietary  products.
Management  believes  investing  in  research  and  development  will  serve the
Company's  future  well,  and  intends  to  continue  this  investment  for  the
foreseeable  future.   Research  and  development   expenses  will  continue  at
approximately the same percentage as in the previous two years.

Net income decreased to $305,995,  approximately 5.6% of revenues, for the three
months ended June 30, 1999, from $347,281,  approximately 11.2% of revenues,  in
1998. Net income for six months ended June 30, 1999, increased to $593,763, 5.9%
of revenues,  from $462,289,  8.7% of 1998 revenues.  The increase in net income
for the six months  ending June 30, 1999,  as compared to the six months  ending
June 30,  1998,  is  principally  due to  increased  revenues  generated  by the
Company.

As of June 30, 1999, the Company's backlog of customer orders was $5,645,000, as
compared to $5,696,000 on June 30, 1998. Management estimates that approximately
80% of the backlog will ship before December 31, 1998.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company produced
$305,995  and $593,763 in net income  respectively  from  operating  activities,
compared to net incomes of $347,281 and  $462,289,  respectively,  for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 1998.  Cash decreased by $5,443,375 for the
six months  ending June 30, 1999,  as the Company made payments on debt incurred
with  business  acquisitions  and the  repurchase  of common stock  warrants and
continued to fund an increase in accounts receivable and inventories, as well as
purchases related to property, plant and equipment.

The  Company's  investment in property,  patents from new research,  production,
test  equipment and tooling was $406,138 for the six months ended June 30, 1999,
compared to $925,951 in 1998.  Total  expenditures  for equipment were primarily
due to upgrading the Company's research,  design and engineering capabilities as
well as normal replacement of engineering and production  equipment and tooling.
The Company  expects to spend  approximately  $100,000 for the remainder of 1999
for additional manufacturing equipment, as well as for normal replacement of old
equipment.  The Company also  anticipates  approximately  $400,000 of additional
research and development expenses during 1998.

The  Company's  working  capital at June 30, 1999 was  $11,376,169,  compared to
$16,967,379 at June 30, 1998.  The decrease in working  capital is primarily due
to the payments on debt related to the acquisitions  completed in December 1998,
as described in the Acquisition  section of the Notes to Consolidated  Financial
Statements  in the  Company's  Annual  Report on SEC Form 10-K.  The  portion of
working  capital  represented by cash at such dates was $2,517,136 and $387,446,
respectively.  The Company  however had in addition to the cash  balance on June
30,  1998,  $10,352,999  in  short  term,  investment  grade,  interest  bearing
investments. The Company uses substantial portions of its cash from time to time
to fund its operations, including increases in inventories,  accounts receivable
and work in process in  connection  with  various  customer  orders,  as well as
acquisitions  of  additional  technologies  and  product  complementary  to  the
Company's  current  technologies  and  products.  The Company  feels its working
capital is sufficient for operations for the next twelve months.

Year 2000 Compliance

Many  existing  computer  programs,  worldwide,  use only the last two digits to
refer to a year.  Such  computer  programs  may not  properly  recognize  a year
beginning with "20" instead of the current "19". If not corrected, many computer
applications  could fail or create  incorrect  results.  This phenomena is often
referred to as the "Year 2000" or "Y2K" problem.  There is  substantial  concern
that  if the  Year  2000  problem  is not  adequately  addressed,  there  may be
widespread problems with computer  applications in all areas of use, potentially
affecting the global economy.

If the Company's  internal systems and products do not correctly  recognize date
information  when the year changes to 2000,  there could be an adverse impact on
the Company's operations.  Additionally,  if the Company's supplier,  customers,
and other parties  experience Y2K  difficulties,  the Company could be adversely
affected.  The Company is  continuing  the process of assessing  and  correcting
potential Year 2000 problems with the Company's operations.

         State of Readiness

With regard to its information systems  (financial,  supply,  inventory,  order,
office support, etc.) the Company has developed and begun implementing a plan to
convert all necessary  systems to be ready for the year 2000.  Approximately 95%
of the  necessary  systems  have  been  determined  to be Y2K  compliant  by the
Company,  or have  been  upgraded  to new  systems  which are  certified  by the
manufacturer  as Year 2000  compliant.  Completion of correction or upgrading of
the remaining necessary systems is expected by October 1, 1999.

With  regard to its  non-information  system  operations,  the Company is in the
process of  reviewing  and  correcting  Y2K  problems  in the  following  areas:
products  currently  manufactured by the Company;  manufacturing and engineering
systems; and building systems. This review is approximately 97% complete and the
Company has been able to correct or plans to correct prior to 2000 each material
Y2K issue identified in the review.

With regard to potential Y2K issues for the Company's major material  suppliers,
the Company is in the process of communicating  with such parties.  Although not
all major suppliers have indicated their Y2K compliance, the Company has not yet
identified  any major supplier that believes it will be unable to operate due to
Y2K  problems  in 2000.  Generally,  the  Company  has  alternative  sources for
supplies in the event a supplier  experiences such  difficulties and the Company
does not presently  anticipate material  difficulties in obtaining materials due
to suppliers' Y2K problems.


With regard to major  customers,  the Company has had  communications  with such
parties and is reviewing  responses  regarding the Companies Y2K compliance.  To
date, the Company has  insufficient  information  from such parties to determine
the potential impact on the Company if such parties experience Y2K difficulties.

With regard to  third-party  utilities  and  services  (for  example,  telephone
electrical, bankcard processing and shipping services), the Company has no plans
to evaluate the Y2K readiness of such providers.

         Cost to Address Y2K Issues

As of August 1, 1999, the Company has spent  approximately  $190,000 in hardware
and  software  expenses to upgrade or correct Y2K  problems  with the  Company's
internal  systems.  The  Company  currently  expects to incur  approximately  an
additional  $10,000 in costs for further upgrades and  corrections.  These costs
include,  however,  costs to upgrade and replace  systems that the Company would
otherwise would have done in the normal course of business.  The estimated costs
are based on  management's  best  projections but there can be no guarantee that
these forecasts will be achieved and actual results could differ materially from
those  anticipated.  Company  management  anticipates  that these  costs will be
funded  through  operating  cash  flows.  The  Company  has not yet been able to
estimate  the  costs it may  incur as a result of its  suppliers  and  customers
experiencing Y2K difficulties.

         Risk of the Company's Y2K Issues

The Company  anticipates  that the material risks related to its information and
non-information  systems will be timely  mitigated by current efforts being made
by the Company to identify and correct internal Y2K problems.  However, there is
no  guarantee  that the Company  will  successfully  identify or correct all Y2K
problems in a timely  manner.  For example,  due to the inherent  limitations of
real-time clock devices and system BIOS in the Company's manufacturing equipment
or building  systems,  continued  review and testing  could  uncover  additional
problems. In some cases, problems may be unforeseen, and occur regardless of the
testing and review that is done.

Other  major  Y2K risks  for the  Company  arise  from the  potential  for major
customers to experience financial or operational difficulties resulting from Y2K
problems.  If such customers  reduce their orders for the Company's  products or
services, the Company's operations could be adversely affected.

Additionally,  a major potential Y2K risk to the Company's operations is service
disruption from third-party providers that supply telephone, electrical, banking
and shipping  services.  Any disruption of these critical  services would hinder
the Company's ability to receive, process and ship orders.
