              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                 FOR THE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995

A.    GENERAL

      Cryomedical Sciences, Inc. ("CMS") and its wholly owned subsidiary Cryo
      Instruments, Inc. ("CII"), collectively referred to as the "Company," is
      engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and marketing of
      products for use in the field of hypothermic (low- temperature) medicine.

      The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 1996, the Consolidated
      Statements of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended March
      31, 1996 and 1995, and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the
      nine-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, have been prepared
      without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary
      to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash
      flows at March 31, 1996, and for all periods then ended, have been
      recorded.  All adjustments recorded were of a normal recurring nature.

      Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
      financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
      accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested
      that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with
      the financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June
      30, 1995 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
      year ended June 30, 1995.

      The results of operations for the periods ended March 31, 1996 are not
      necessarily indicative of the operating results anticipated for the
      fiscal year ending June 30, 1996.

B.    NET LOSS PER SHARE

      Net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common
      shares outstanding during the three months and nine months ended March
      31, 1996 and 1995.  No effect has been given to unexercised stock options
      or warrants because the effect would be antidilutive.

D.   CONTINGENCIES

     In April 1994, present or former stockholders of the Company filed several
     suits against the Company, its President and CEO and two other directors
     in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland.  The
     suits were subsequently consolidated under Case No. AW- 94-873, and a
     consolidated amended complaint was filed.  The plaintiffs sought to have
     the consolidated action designated as a class action on behalf of all
     persons who purchased the Company's stock between September 13, 1991 and
     April 4, 1994.  The plaintiffs claimed that, during that period, the
     defendants inflated the market price of the Company's stock in violation
     of the federal securities laws and the common law.  On April 26, 1995, the
     Court dismissed a major portion of the action against the Company and
     dismissed the plaintiffs' claims against the individual defendants in
     their entirety.  In September 1995, the parties reached an agreement to
     settle the case.  The settlement was approved by the Court on February 15,
     1996.  Currently, the deadline for submitting claims is June 25, 1996.
     Pursuant to the agreement, a class consisting of all persons who purchased
     the Company's stock between September 13, 1991 and April 4, 1994 has been
     certified solely for settlement purposes.  The agreement provides that, in
     return for a general release of all claims which members of the class may
     have against the Company and its past and present officers, directors,
     employees and other agents, the Company will pay $100,000 in cash (which
     payment has already been paid) and will issue shares of common stock of the
     Company with a market value of $350,000, based on the average closing price
     on the ten trading days prior to district court approval of the 
     settlement.  On February 15, 1996, the district court determined that 
     175,549 shares of the Company's common stock (at an average price per 
     share of $1.99375),

                                  (continued)

D.   CONTINGENCIES (continued)

     representing $350,000 was due the stockholders.  The Company accrued the
     entire $450,000 settlement cost of the stockholder class action suit as of
     June 30, 1995.  The $350,000 of common stock to be issued was recorded as
     additional paid in capital at June 30, 1995.  The plaintiffs' counsel
     intend to apply to the Court for an award of fees equal to approximately
     one third of the gross amount of the settlement proceeds, as well as for
     reimbursement of the out of pocket expenses they incurred during the
     course of litigation.  Subsequent to the approval of the settlement by the
     Court, the settlement proceeds, minus any amounts paid to the plaintiffs'
     counsel and the costs of administering the settlement, including the costs
     of notice to the class, will be distributed to those members of the class
     who submit timely claims, in proportion to the investment losses they have
     suffered on shares they purchased during the class period.  Members of the
     class who did not wish to participate in the settlement were permitted to
     opt out of the class if they gave written notice postmarked no later than
     February 1, 1996.  To date, the Company has received such notices from
     persons who purchased approximately 430,000 shares of the Company's stock
     during the class period.  The Company has settled the litigation solely to
     avoid the expenses that would be involved in defending the suit between
     now and its conclusion.  Those expenses were expected to exceed the amount
     of the cash consideration being paid in the settlement.  The defendants
     have admitted no liability and continue to believe that the suits were
     without merit.

     On or about October 19, 1995, the Company was served with a complaint
     alleging gender bias which had been filed by a female former employee who
     claims that she was discriminated against with respect to her salary and
     also with respect to the decision to terminate her employment as part of a
     reduction in work force.  The suit was filed in the Circuit Court for
     Montgomery County, Maryland and subsequently removed to the United States
     District Court for the District of Maryland.  The claims are asserted
     under both Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Equal Pay
     Act.  The Company denied all allegations of discrimination and vigorously
     defended the case.  The suit has been dismissed with prejudice, and the
     Plaintiff is not entitled to, and will not receive, any payment from the
     Company.

E.   TRANSACTIONS AFFECTING COMMON STOCK

     On January 3, 1996, the Company issued 7,527 shares of common stock, in
     connection with the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                 FOR THE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
                                  (continued)

E.   TRANSACTIONS AFFECTING COMMON STOCK (continued)

     On February 15, 1996, the Company issued 175,549 shares of the Company's
     common stock in connection with the final settlement of the shareholder
     suit.

     On March 19, 1996, the Company issued 684,914 shares of the Company's
     common stock at an average price of $1.38 per share in connection with the
     January 17, 1996 sale of convertible preferred stock to foreign investors,
     for which the Company received $1,910,000 of net proceeds.

F.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On April 8, 1996, the Company issued an additional 618,308 shares of
     Common Stock at an average price of $1.61 per share in connection with the
     January 17, 1996 sale of convertible preferred stock to foreign investors.
     As of April 19, 1996 approximately 30,000 preferred shares have not been
     converted for issuance as common stock.

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


     The Company is engaged in the research, development, manufacture and
marketing of products for use in the field of hypothermic (low-temperature)
medicine.  The Company has developed a cryosurgical system, called the CMS
AccuProbe(R) System (the "AccuProbe"), which is a sophisticated cryosurgical
device designed to freeze and destroy unwanted (diseased) tissue.  The initial
clinical focus of physicians with respect to the AccuProbe has been in the
fields of urology and general surgery, primarily to destroy tissue which cannot
be removed surgically or in which typical surgery offers extensive adverse side
effects.  The Company plans to further test and market its AccuProbe in certain
of the various fields for which the original 400 series device received
clearance from the FDA in April 1991 and the 500 series received FDA clearance
in December 1995.  The CMS AccuProbe is cleared for marketing in the fields of
dermatology, general surgery, neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, ENT, gynecology,
oncology, proctology and urology.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Sales and other operating revenues for the three and nine months ended
March 31, 1996 totaled $2,026,593 and $5,708,743, respectively, compared to
$3,025,520 and $10,921,890, respectively, for the comparable periods of the
prior fiscal year representing decreases of 33% and 48% respectively.  The
Company's operating revenues in the three months ended March 31, 1996 included
sales of 7 CMS AccuProbe Systems, disposable probes and other accessories.
Sales for the three months ended March 31, 1995 included 9 AccuProbe Systems,
in addition to disposable probes and other accessory products.  Operating
revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 included sales of 16
AccuProbe Systems, disposable probes and other accessories compared to sales of
33 systems, disposable probes and other accessories in the comparable period of
the prior fiscal year.  The Company believes revenues in the three and nine
months periods ended March 31, 1996 reflect a decline in the number of
AccuProbe Systems sold due primarily to lack of formal Medicare reimbursement
for urologic cryosurgery.  Sales in each quarter are also subject to
substantial variation, depending upon the success of marketing efforts and
timing of orders.  The Company hopes that the separate FDA clearances of the
CMS Urethral Warmer in October 1995  and the AccuProbe 500 series in December
1995 will restore system, disposable probe and other accessory revenue to
previous levels, although there can be no assurance of increased revenue from
these sources.  Through March 31, 1996, the Company has sold a total of 138
AccuProbe Systems since the product was introduced in June 1992.

     Included in sales and other operating revenues are ultrasound systems
produced by third party manufacturers and sold in conjunction with certain
AccuProbe Systems as a convenience to the customer.  There was no ultrasound
revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $59,900
and $732,188 respectively for the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year.





                                      10
<PAGE>   11
     Gross Profits for all products for the three months ended March 31, 1996
totaled $1,012,490, or 50% of sales, compared to gross profits of $1,803,098,
or 60% of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 1995.  For the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 gross profits totaled $3,054,964, or 54% of sales,
compared to gross profits of $5,879,271, or 54% of sales, for the comparable
period of the prior fiscal year.  The gross profit margin decreased in the most
recent period due to discounts associated with the placement of 400 series
AccuProbe Systems and the mix of sales involving Series 400 and 500 AccuProbe
Systems.

     Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31,
1996 totaled $313,027, a decrease of 54% compared to $682,383 for the
comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  Research and development expenses
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 totaled $1,018,932, a decrease of 55%
compared to $2,288,630 in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.
Research and development expenses decreased during the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1996 due to a reduction in staffing and a temporary reduction
of research grants related to the development of the Company's hypothermic
solutions, reflecting cost reduction measures effected by the Company.

     Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996
totaled $592,954, a decrease of 41% compared to $1,003,525 for the comparable
period of the prior fiscal year.  Sales and marketing expenses for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 totaled $1,859,390, a decrease of 34% compared to
$2,812,246 in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  Sales and
marketing expenses decreased during these periods due to a reduction in
staffing, reduced marketing activity and reduced consulting fees.

     General and administrative expenses for three months ended March 31, 1996
totaled $522,975, a decrease of 32% compared to $766,080 for the comparable
period of the prior fiscal year.  General and administrative expenses for the
nine months ended March 31, 1996 totaled $1,600,885, a decrease of 28% compared
to $2,229,250 for the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  General and
administrative expenses decreased in the more recent periods due to a reduction
in staffing and reduced professional fees.

     As a result of the foregoing reductions in operating expenses which were
offset by decreased gross profits from sales, the Company sustained net losses
of $412,668 and $1,416,165, respectively, for the three and nine months ended
March 31, 1996 compared to net losses of $645,319 and $1,418,096, respectively,
in the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year.

      Sales of the AccuProbe are affected by the level of reimbursement by
public and private insurers in connection with procedures in which the
AccuProbe is utilized.  The availability of consistent, uniform insurance
reimbursement guidelines for hospitals and physicians is an important factor
often considered by potential customers when making a decision regarding the
purchase of any new medical device, including the AccuProbe System.
Reimbursement of hospitals and urologists by public and private insurers such





                                       11
<PAGE>   12
as Medicare and Blue Cross and Blue Shield is a necessary part of gaining
general acceptance for use of the AccuProbe for urological cryosurgery.
Currently Medicare considers urological cryosurgical procedures to be
investigational and excludes such procedures from reimbursement, although
Medicare carriers may pay for such procedures if the carriers decide that the
use of the AccuProbe is appropriate for the patients involved.  No national
payment guidelines for such surgery have yet been established by either
Medicare's Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA") or by the National
Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association.  Therefore, insurer's reimbursement
decisions are made on an insurer-by-insurer or case-by-case basis.  While
payments received by customers vary significantly by region and insurer,
widespread formal reimbursement acceptance has yet to be achieved.  When
insurance coverage is not available, patients may either elect to pay for
treatment themselves or undergo traditional therapies which are covered by
their insurers.  The Company cannot predict if or when national coverage
guidelines for Medicare, Blue Cross and Blue Shield or any other insurance
carriers will be instituted for this form of surgery.  The Company believes the
uncertainty and added efforts required for the Company's customers to secure
payment is impacting sales growth and utilization of AccuProbe Systems to some
degree and, if so, may continue to do so unless and until formal national
coverage guidelines are established.

In view of the operating losses suffered by the Company and the level of the
Company's current liquid resources (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources"
below), in May and October 1995 the Company undertook certain actions to reduce
expense levels.  Such actions include staff reductions, salary reductions and
other cost control measures.  Such other cost control measures include a
reduction in the amount of leased office space,  reductions in the levels of
research grants to outside facilities and reductions in other overhead
expenses.  The goal of these cost reduction measures is to reduce operating
expenses to a level whereby the Company can achieve operating profits and a
positive cash flow from operations, for which there can be no assurance of
achieving.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term
investments totaling $1,366,067 and working capital of $4,116,302, as compared
to $1,217,693 and $3,775,893, respectively, at June 30, 1995.  The Company's
cash and working capital positions increased from June 30, 1995 due primarily
to the $1,910,000 in net proceeds the Company received on January 17, 1996 in
connection with a convertible preferred stock sale to several foreign
investors.  The proceeds from this offering have offset the net loss of
$1,416,165 sustained by the Company for the nine months ended March 31, 1996,
and have supplemented working capital and financed the introduction of the
Company's new AccuProbe 500 series.

      Capital expenditures for leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment
totaled $56,252 in the nine months ended March 31, 1996, compared to $304,606
in the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.  The Company does not expect
to spend more than $100,000 in total for additional equipment and furniture in
the year ending June 30, 1996.  The Company does not expect significant capital
expenditures for the





                                       12
<PAGE>   13
fiscal year ending June 30, 1997, unless revenues increase significantly from
current levels.

      The Company expects to incur substantial expenditures over the remainder
of fiscal 1996 and in fiscal 1997 related to research, development,
manufacturing and testing of its products and for sales and marketing efforts
and other operating expenses.  The Company's management believes that its
current cash and working capital position will be sufficient to fund the
operations of the Company for the next 12 months dependent, in part, on the
level of sales revenues achieved,  the level of sales and marketing activity
engaged in by the Company, and the amounts of research funded by the Company.
However, the Company may pursue various forms of short term financing in
addition to the recently completed equity financing.  Except for the sale of
its products, the Company has no other major sources of liquidity and has no
commitments with regard to obtaining any additional funds.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.       Legal Proceedings

              On or about October 19, 1995, the Company was served with a
              complaint alleging gender bias which had been filed by a female
              former employee who claims that she was discriminated against
              with respect to her salary and also with respect to the decision
              to terminate her employment as part of a reduction in work force.
              The suit was filed in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County,
              Maryland and subsequently removed to the United States District
              Court for the District of Maryland.  The claims are asserted
              under both Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the
              Equal Pay Act.  The Company denied all allegations of
              discrimination and vigorously defended the case.  The suit has
              been dismissed with prejudice, and the Plaintiff is not entitled
              to, and will not receive, any payment from the Company.

Item 5.       Other Information
              
              On May 7, 1996, the Company announced the resignation of its
              President and Chief Executive Officer, J. J. Finkelstein.  The
              resignation of the positions were of mutual consent between the
              Board of Directors and Mr. Finkelstein.  The Company expects to
              name a successor shortly.  During the interim period, John Baust,
              Ph.D., Senior Vice President, will be the Acting Chief Operating
              Officer.
