                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  June 30, 2000

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.  In  April  2000,  the  Company  completed  a
transaction with Nestle Clinical Nutrition, a division of Nestle USA, to acquire
Nestle USA's installed base of approximately 20,000 stationary enteral pumps and
will replace  Nestle as the supplier of  disposable  sets,  feeding  tubes,  and
accessories  to  such  base.  The  Company  and  its  subsidiaries   design  and
manufacture  advanced  medical  devices,   including  surgical  systems,  device
components,   and  sensors  for  other  companies.   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. The Company and its subsidiaries also
design,  manufacture,  and market their own medical  devices  using  proprietary
technologies.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 include
the accounts of ZEVEX International, Inc. (Company) and its wholly-owned
operating subsidiaries, ZEVEX, Inc., Aborn Electronics, Inc., and JTech Medical
Industries, 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 along
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 1999 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.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial  Statements.  The effective
date of SAB  101 is the  fourth  quarter  of the  fiscal  year  beginning  after
December 15, 1999. The SAB clarifies proper methods of revenue recognition given
certain circumstances  surrounding sales transactions.  The Company continues to
evaluate  the  impact of SAB 101,  but  believes  it is in  compliance  with the
provision  of the  SAB  and,  accordingly,  does  not  expect  SAB 101 to have a
material effect on its financial statements.

2.  Bank Line of Credit

The Company renewed its line of credit arrangement with a financial  institution
with  availability of $5 million.  The line matures on May 29, 2001. The line of
credit is collateralized by accounts receivable and inventory and bears interest
at the prime  rate,  9.5% at June 30, 2000 and 8.5% at December  31,  1999.  The
Company's  balance on its line of credit  was  $1,703,110  at June 30,  2000 and
$1,613,453 at December 31, 1999. 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, 2000, the Company
was in compliance with these financial covenants.

3.  Repurchase of Common Stock

On June 14, 1999,  the Company  repurchased  470,0000  outstanding  Common Stock
Warrants for $1,175,000. In December 1999, the Company repurchased 10,000 shares
of  outstanding  Common Stock for $45,731 which the Company  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.  On
April 3, 2000 Mr. Smith received $73,594 in cash and a convertible  debenture in
the principal amount of $73,594,  in connection with the earn-out portion of the
JTech Stock Purchase.  The convertible  debenture,  is due March 31, 2002 and is
convertible at Mr. Smith's option during the period from March 31, 2000 to March
31, 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.

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  three  months  and  six  months   ending  June  30,  2000,   the  Company's
comprehensive income was $140,198 and $53,136 (net of tax effect) lower than net
income reported on the Company's financial statements.  For the three months and
six months ending June 30, 1999, the Company's  comprehensive income was $16,198
and $93,609 (net of tax effect) higher than net income reported on the Company's
financial statements.

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

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations

The Company's  revenues for the second  quarter ended June 30, 2000 increased to
$9,037,599  from  $5,481,404  for the second  quarter of 1999,  an  increase  of
approximately  65%. For the first six months of 2000,  revenues increased 45% to
$14,695,646  from  $10,142,857 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  Sales of
the  Company's   proprietary   enteral  feeding   products  line  accounted  for
approximately 45% of the total revenues for the second quarter of 2000, compared
to 32% for the second quarter of 1999, and 38% for the first six months of 2000,
compared to 33% for the six months  ended June 30,  1999.  The  increase in both
revenue dollars and percentage of revenues was largely due to the acquisition of
the enteral nutrition delivery device product line of Nestle Clinical Nutrition,
which was completed on April 6, 2000. Sales of the Company's  proprietary  JTech
product line,  accounted  for  approximately  10% of the total  revenues for the
second  quarter  of 2000  compared  to 13%  for  the  second  quarter  of  1999.
Forty-five percent of the Company's revenues in the second quarter 2000, and 50%
for the first six months of 2000 compared to 51% for the second quarter of 1999,
were from products  manufactured  for and sold to OEM customers,  who market the
final  product.  During  the first six  months  of 2000,  28% of total  revenues
resulted from sales to two OEM  customers,  one of which was a major customer in
1999,  compared to 14% of total revenues for the first six months of 1999,  from
sales to one customer.  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.

With the completion of the  acquisition of the Nestle  enteral  delivery  device
product  line,  the Company  will no longer  sell  stationary  feeding  pumps to
Nestle.  Instead, the Company will generate more revenue then that expected from
pump  sales  to  Nestle  from  the sale of  disposable  devices  to users of the
approximately 20,000 feeding pumps acquired from Nestle. The pumps acquired from
Nestle are being used by persons and  businesses  that have an obligation to buy
disposable   products   from  the  Company  while  they  are  using  the  pumps.
Additionally,  the Company plans to place more stationary feeding pumps with new
users (at little or no cost to the user) under  similar  arrangements  where the
pump users commit to buy  disposable  products  from the Company while using the
pumps.

The Company's gross profit as a percentage of revenues was approximately 36% for
the three months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to 45% for 1999.  Gross profit
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately 39% compared to 47% for
the same period in 1999.  Management  attributes  the  decrease in gross  profit
percentage year over year to several matters, including startup costs related to
bringing  in-house the manufacturing of the Enteral EZ enteral feeding pump, the
servicing of the Nestle N2200 pumps acquired as mentioned above,  which included
labor,  tooling and setup costs for non-recurring  engineering  (NRE), the lower
margin product line acquired from Nestle,  and a shift in the revenue mix of its
products to lower margin  complete  system  instrumentation  shipped  during the
second quarter and the first six months of 2000.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30,
2000 increased $273,033,  from $1,607,720 in 1999 to $1,880,753 in 2000. For the
six months  ended June 30, 2000  selling,  general and  administrative  expenses
increased  $504,672 from  $3,181,115  in 1999 to  $3,685,787 in 2000.  Increased
expenses  resulted  from the  Company's  continuing  growth,  an expanded  sales
effort, customer relations and marketing effort, and increased staffing, travel,
advertising and  administrative  expenses  related to the Company's  proprietary
clinical  nutrition  delivery  product line and JTech product lines. The Company
also incurred  expenses related to the acquisition of the Nestle enteral feeding
delivery product line which closed April 6, 2000.  Expenses included  increasing
the  number of  customer  service  and  administrative  personnel  needed by the
Company to handle the  increased  volume of orders from the Nestle  transaction.
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  2000  as  related  to  sales  will   continue  at
approximately the same percentage 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, 2000,  research and
development  expenses  were $144,230  compared to $169,683 in 1999.  For the six
months ended June 30, 2000,  research and  development  expenses  were  $360,213
compared to $298,745 in 1999.  Expenses  incurred  during the second quarter and
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were for the continued development of new
applications  of the Company's  ultrasound  technology,  clinical  nutrition and
JTech  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.  Management  currently  anticipates that
research and development expenses will continue during 2000 at approximately the
same percentage of revenues as in the previous two years.

For the three months ended June 30, 2000 the Company had net income of $552,516,
6.1% of revenues,  compared to net income of $305,995, or 5.6% of revenues,  for
the three months  ended June 30, 1999.  Net income for the six months ended June
30, 2000, increased to $872,531, or 5.9% of revenues,  from $593,763, or 5.9% of
revenues  for the six months  ended June 30,  1999.  The  increase in net income
during the second quarter of 2000, as compared to the second quarter of 1999, is
principally  due to increased  revenues.  The increase in net income  during the
first six months of 2000, as compared to the first six months of 1999, is due to
increased  revenues and partially due to the gain on the sale of securities that
were received as payment from customers on previous system design contracts.

As of June 30, 2000, the Company's backlog of customer orders was $6,361,000, as
compared to $5,645,000 on June 30, 1999. Management estimates that approximately
80% of the backlog  will be shipped  before  December 31,  2000.  The  Company's
backlog is for contract  manufacturing  only and can be drastically  affected by
the timing of annual or semi-annual purchase orders placed by its customers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company produced
net income of $552,516  and  $872,531,  respectively,  compared to net income of
$305,995  and  $593,763 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999.
Cash  decreased by  $2,419,723  for the six months  ending June 30, 2000, as the
Company made payments on short-term notes related to JTech and Aborn acquisition
earn-outs,  made  necessary  tax  payments,  continued  to fund an  increase  in
accounts  receivable  and  inventories,  as  well  as  purchases  of  plant  and
equipment.

The  Company's  investment in property,  patents from new research,  production,
test equipment and tooling, and the assets acquired from Nestle USA as described
previously was  $3,460,090  for the six months ended June 30, 2000,  compared to
$406,138  for the six  months  ended  June  30,  1999.  Total  expenditures  for
equipment  of  $859,693  in the first six months of 2000 were  primarily  due to
approximately  $250,000 for a new accounting and MRP system  including  hardware
and  software,  $230,000  for  upgrading  and  providing  the  Company  with new
research,  design,  and  engineering  equipment and $390,000 for new  stationary
enteral  feeding  pumps.  Total  expenditures  for Nestle the  acquisition  were
$2,586,092,  which included  stationary enteral feeding pumps,  tooling,  patent
license,  customer lists and pump bilateral  agreements.  The Company expects to
spend   approximately   $300,000  for  the  remainder  of  2000  for  additional
manufacturing  equipment and software,  as well as for normal replacement of old
equipment.  The Company also  anticipates  approximately  $300,000 of additional
research and development expenses during 2000.

On March 29, 2000,  the Company  entered  into an  agreement to acquire  certain
assets from Nestle USA, Inc.  relating to Nestle's  enteral  nutrition  delivery
devices.  The purchase was completed on April 6, 2000 for a purchase  price that
will range from $1.5 million to approximately $2.7 million, depending upon sales
generated by the acquired  assets during the 12 months  following the closing of
the  purchase,  plus the actual cost of inventory  acquired by the Company which
iwas approximately $1,200,000.  Upon closing, cash of $500,000 was paid, with an
additional $1 million due six months from closing. The remainder of the purchase
price will be settled  upon  resolution  of  contingencies  within the  purchase
agreement.  The Company also anticipates spending approximately $500,000 for the
manufacturing of stationary  enteral feeding pumps during the remainder of 2000.
These pumps will be leased,  rented or placed as part of  arrangements  in which
pump users will agree to periodically  purchase related disposable products from
the Company for use with the pumps.

The  Company's  working  capital at June 30,  2000 was  $10,005,873  compared to
$11,935,524 at December 31, 1999. The portion of working capital  represented by
cash at such dates was $963,821 and $3,383,544,  respectively.  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.  The Company feels its working capital
is sufficient for operations for the next twelve months.
