Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Unaudited June 30, 1996

NOTES A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and with
the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
1996. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1995 and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended. In addition, refer
to the Company's Report on Form 8-K, filed on July 15, 1996 (see Part II, Item
6).

NOTE B - INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. The
components of inventory consist of the following (in thousands):

</TABLE>

NOTE C - BANK LOANS (CURRENT)

The Company's current U.S. bank loans, with balances outstanding of
approximately $2.4 million and $3.4 million at June 30, 1996 and December 31,
1995, respectively, are subject to certain financial covenants, including
minimum cash balances, quick assets ratio, tangible net worth and profitability
and are secured by substantially all of the Company's U.S. net assets. At
December 31, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with the financial
covenants. Non-compliance results in the bank having the right to declare the
loans due and payable immediately, but the bank has not exercised that right. At
June 30, 1996, the Company was in full compliance with the financial covenants.

NOTE D - ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES

Income taxes have been provided for on a year-to-date basis and represent taxes
on profits earned at the Company's European subsidiaries in Ireland, Austria,
and Holland, plus California taxes and U.S. alternative minimum taxes.

NOTE E - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

In March 1996, the Company issued 54,055 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for
an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million in a private placement to an
existing shareholder. These securities have a cumulative stock dividend rate of
6 percent and are convertible into 540,550 shares of common stock at an
effective conversion price of $9.25 per share.

In June 1996, the Company raised approximately $32.9 million (net proceeds)
through the private sale of 3,212,176 shares of common stock. The proceeds from
this sale were used in connection with the purchase of certain assets of the
hearing health business activity of Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company
(3M) (see Note F below) and to provide working capital. These proceeds reflect
most of the proceeds shown as issuance of common stock on the Company's
unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months
ended June 30, 1996.

In June 1996, convertible promissory notes previously issued by the Company, in
the aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million, plus unpaid interest through
June 21, 1996, were converted into 265,506 shares of common stock at $7.7125 per
share of common stock.

NOTE F - PURCHASE OF 3M HEARING HEALTH

On June 28, 1996, the Company completed the purchase of certain assets of the
hearing health business activity of 3M. The purchase price was $24.9 million and
included certain patents, patent applications and new product developments. The
Company has established a subsidiary, Sonar Hearing Health Corporation, to
manage this activity on an ongoing basis. The patent infringement lawsuit filed
by 3M against ReSound in September 1993 in the U.S. District Court, District of
Minnesota was dismissed on July 2, 1996. To finance this purchase and provide
working capital, the Company raised approximately $32.9 million (net proceeds)
through the private sale of 3,212,176 shares of common stock.

The allocation of the purchase price, as of June 30, 1996 was as follows (in
thousands):

Hearing health constituted a small business activity in 3M's worldwide
operations which was neither a division nor subject to the maintenance of
discrete accounting records such that financial statements could be or are
determinable. However, the Company believes that this business activity
generated revenues for 3M of approximately $16.6 million and $9.3 million for
the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
respectively. The Company believes that profits, if any, generated from the
hearing health activity of 3M for the above-mentioned periods were minimal, and
it may not have been profitable as a historical activity.

The annual amortization resulting from the recognition of the intangible assets
acquired from 3M on the Company's balance sheet will be approximately $750,000
and $665,000 for the patents and goodwill, respectively.

NOTE G - USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences
may be material to the financial statements.

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

OVERVIEW

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
consolidated condensed financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I
- -- Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto and Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended December 31,
1995 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended. In
addition, refer to the Company's Report on Form 8-K, filed on July 15, 1996 (see
Part II, Item 6).

ReSound Corporation (the "Company" or "ReSound") is a hearing health care
company that designs, develops, manufactures and sells technologically advanced
hearing devices for the hearing impaired. ReSound distributes its products
through authorized dispensers in the United States, Europe and Asia. The Company
sells Personal Hearing Systems which are available in In-the-Ear ("ITE"),
Behind-the-Ear ("BTE") and In-the-Canal ("ITC") versions. In addition, the
Company sells a proprietary prescriptive programming system designed to enable a
hearing care professional to assess a patient's hearing impairment through
computerized measurement, to select an appropriate, individualized prescription
and to program the Personal Hearing System. In May 1996, the Company introduced
ReSource, a software module which allows hearing care professionals to program
the Personal Hearing System through the use of a personal computer equipped with
the industry-standard platform called NOAH.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended June 30, 1996 and July 2, 1995

Net sales increased by 8 percent to $29.7 million in the second quarter ended
June 30, 1996, from $27.5 million in the quarter ended July 2, 1995.
International sales accounted for 58 percent of ReSound's net sales during the
second quarter of 1996, compared to 64 percent during the same quarter in 1995.
Sales in the United States increased by 25 percent to $12.4 million in the
second quarter ended June 30, 1996, from $9.9 million in the quarter ended July
2, 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to the introduction of the
Company's ITC hearing device as well as continued strong sales of the Encore
product line. International sales for the second quarter were $17.3 million, a
decrease of 2 percent from the same period last year. The slight decrease in
international sales was the result of the economic slowdown in Germany and
weaker European currencies compared to the U.S. dollar. Sonar Hearing Health
Corporation commenced operating the former hearing health business activity of
3M on July 1, 1996, and, therefore, operating results relating to this activity
are not included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of
operations for the three months ended June 30, 1996.

Gross profit was 58 percent of net sales in the second quarter of 1996, compared
to 52 percent of net sales for the same quarter of 1995. The quarter-to-quarter
increase in gross profit was largely attributable to the elimination of royalty
expenses incurred in 1995 due to the A&L Technology patent litigation, which was
settled in October 1995. In addition, the Company has benefited from improved
efficiencies at its Ireland manufacturing facility which supplies all ReSound
BTE hearing devices and faceplate components worldwide and from the use of
Viennatone hearing device cases and components in various products which began
in the second half of 1995.

Research and Development ("R&D") spending during the second quarter of 1996 was
$3.5 million (11.7 percent of net sales) compared to $2.5 million (9.2 percent
of net sales) in the same quarter of 1995. The Company increased spending during
the second quarter of 1996 relative to the year-earlier quarter for development
of new products scheduled to be introduced throughout 1996. In May 1996, the
Company began distributing its Advanced ReSound Processing chip incorporating
ReSound's Cochlea Dynamic technology into an ITC hearing device, along with a
ReSound software fitting system, ReSource, based on the industry standard NOAH
platform. Expenses were also incurred for the development of a standard hardware
platform for Digital Signal Processing technology as part of an alliance with
AudioLogic and GN Danavox, which alliance is expected to be concluded during the
third quarter of 1996.

Selling General and Administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $11.5 million, or 38.8
percent of net sales for the second quarter of 1996, compared to $11.2 million,
or 40.6 percent of net sales in the second quarter of 1995. The slight dollar
increase was primarily due to higher costs associated with distribution in
several new markets.

Net interest expense was $526,000 for the second quarter of 1996 compared to
$487,000 for the second quarter of 1995. This increase in net interest expense
was primarily attributable to the


                                       9
<PAGE>   10
depletion of the Company's short-term investments as a result of the payment of
funds in settlement of the A&L Technology patent litigation which occurred in
October 1995.

Income taxes have been provided for on a year-to-date basis and represent taxes
on profits earned at ReSound's European subsidiaries in Ireland, Austria, UK,
and Holland, plus California taxes and U.S. alternative minimum taxes.

Net income was $1.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1996, compared to net
income of $102,000 in the quarter ended July 2, 1995. The increase was primarily
the result of the introduction of the ITC device and the elimination of royalty
expenses incurred in 1995 related to the A&L Technology patent litigation, which
was settled in October 1995. These factors were offset by increased R&D spending
during the second quarter of 1996 relative to the year-earlier quarter
associated with the development of new products scheduled to be introduced in
1996.

Six months ended June 30, 1996 and July 2, 1995

Net sales increased by 5 percent to $57.0 million in the six months ended June
30, 1996, from $54.4 million in the six months ended July 2, 1995. International
sales accounted for 61 percent of ReSound's net sales during the first six
months of 1996, compared to 66 percent during the same period in 1995. Sales in
the United States increased by 18 percent to $22.1 in the six months ended June
30, 1996, from $18.7 in the six months ended July 2, 1995. The increase was
primarily attributable to the introduction of the ITC hearing device as well as
continued strong sales of the Encore product line. The slight decrease in
international sales was the result of the economic slowdown in Germany and
weaker European currencies compared to the U.S. dollar. Sonar Hearing Health
Corporation commenced operating the former hearing health business activity of
3M on July 1, 1996, and, therefore, operating results relating to this activity
are not included in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

Gross profit increased to $31.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996
from $28.0 million for the six months ended July 2, 1995, and increased as a
percentage of net sales to 56.1 percent for the six months ended June 30, 1996
from 51.4 percent during the same period in 1995. The year-to-year increase in
gross profit as a percentage of sales was due primarily to the lack of royalty
expenses that were incurred in 1995 due to the A&L Technology patent litigation,
which was settled in October 1995. In addition, the Company has benefited from
improved efficiencies at its Ireland manufacturing facility which supplies all
ReSound BTE hearing devices and faceplate components worldwide and from the use
of Viennatone hearing device cases and components in various products which
began in the second half of 1995.

R&D expenses increased by 33 percent to $6.6 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 from $4.9 million for the six months ended July 2, 1995. The
Company increased spending during the first half of 1996 relative to the year
earlier period for development of new products scheduled to be introduced
throughout 1996. In May 1996, the Company began distributing its Advanced
ReSound Processing chip incorporating ReSound's Cochlea Dynamic technology into
an ITC hearing device, along with a ReSound software fitting system, ReSource,
based on the industry standard NOAH platform. Expenses were also incurred for
the development of a standard hardware platform for


                                       10
<PAGE>   11
Digital Signal Processing technology as part of an alliance with AudioLogic and
GN Danavox, which alliance is expected to be concluded during the third quarter
of 1996.

SG&A expenses increased by 4.4 percent to $22.4 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 from $21.5 million for the six months ended July 2, 1995. These
expenses were 39.3 percent of net sales for the first six months of 1996
compared to 39.5 percent for the same period of 1995. The slight dollar increase
was primarily due to expenditures relating to upgrading ReSound's worldwide
customer base of Portable Prescriptive Programming Systems and higher costs
associated with distribution in several new markets.

Net interest expense was $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996
compared to $0.9 million for the six months ended July 2, 1995. This increase
was primarily attributable to the depletion of the Company's short-term
investments as a result of the payment of funds in settlement of the A&L
Technology patent litigation which occurred in October 1995.

Income taxes have been provided for on a year-to-date basis and represent taxes
on profits earned at ReSound's European subsidiaries in Ireland, Austria, UK,
and Holland, plus California taxes and U.S. alternative minimum taxes.

Net income was $1.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to
net income of $512,000 in the six months ended July 2, 1995. The increase in the
more recent period was primarily the result of the introduction of the ITC
hearing device and the elimination of royalty expenses incurred in 1995 related
to the A&L Technology patent litigation, which was settled in October 1995.
These factors were offset by increased R&D spending during the six months ended
June 30, 1996, relative to the six months ended July 2, 1995, associated with
the development of new products scheduled to be introduced in 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the six months ended June 30, 1996 the Company generated $3.2 million in
cash from operations. This amount resulted primarily from net income of $1.2
million, depreciation and amortization of $3.4 million, a net $0.8 million
increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, offset primarily by a $2.7
million increase in accounts receivable.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1996 of
$30.1 million resulted primarily from the acquisition of the 3M hearing health
business activity and from additions to property and equipment of $4.1 million.

In March 1996, the Company issued 54,055 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for
an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million in a private placement to an
existing shareholder. Additional financing activity in the six months ended June
30, 1996 involved the issuance of common stock for $32.9 million (net proceeds)
in June 1996, to raise capital to fund the acquisition of the 3M hearing health
business activity (see Note E - Shareholders' Equity, in Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements, above).


                                       11
<PAGE>   12
At June 30, 1996, the Company had available cash and cash equivalents of $13.1
million. The Company believes the available cash and cash equivalents will be
sufficient to meet the Company's operating expenses and capital requirements for
at least the next twelve months. From time to time, the Company may also
consider the acquisition of, or evaluate investments in certain products and
businesses complementary to the Company's business. Any such acquisition or
investment may require additional capital resources.
