                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

(1)  Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements of Hologic, Inc. (the Company)
presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of
the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended September
27, 1997, included in the Company's Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on December 23, 1997.

     The consolidated balance sheet as of December 27, 1997, the consolidated
statements of income for the three months ended December 27, 1997 and December
28, 1996 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months
ended December 27, 1997 and December 28, 1996, are unaudited but, in the opinion
of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim
periods.

     The results of operations for the three months ended December 27, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal
year ending September 26, 1998.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the application
of certain accounting policies described in this and other notes to the
consolidated financial statements.

     (a)  Inventories:  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in,
first-out) or market and consist of the following:

     Work-in-process and finished goods inventories consist of material, labor
and manufacturing overhead.

          (b)  Foreign Currency Translation:

          Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are
translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the end of the
period, and revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted average
exchange rate in effect during the period.  Gains and losses from foreign
currency translation are included in the stockholders' equity section under
cumulative translation adjustment.  Foreign currency transaction gains and
losses arising primarily from settlement of sales transactions with the
Company's foreign subsidiaries are included in results of operations.  A
transaction loss of $24,856 and $82,324 for the three months ended December 27,
1997 and December 28, 1996, respectively, are included in other expense in the
accompanying consolidated statements of income.

          (c)  Earnings Per Share:

          In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128-Earnings per Share.  This
standard is effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 1997 and
requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face
of the Consolidated Statements of Income.  These financial statements have been
prepared and presented based on the new standard.  Prior period amounts have
been restated to conform to current year presentation.  For the three months
ended December 27, 1997 and December 28, 1996, 184,728 and 117,606 anti-dilutive
weighted shares, respectively, have been excluded from the weighted average
number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding.

(3)       LINE OF CREDIT

          The Company has an international line of credit with a bank for the
equivalent of $3,000,000, which bears interest at PIBOR plus 1.50%.  The
borrowings under this line are denominated in the local currency of its European
subsidiaries and are primarily used by these subsidiaries to settle intercompany
sales.

(4)       CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

          The Company sells certain of its systems to a leasing company, which
in turn leases the systems to third parties. The leasing company accounted for
35% of DXA product sales in the three months ended December 27, 1997.

(5)       RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

          In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130 Reporting Comprehensive
Income and SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information. Both SFAS No. 130 and SFAS No. 131 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company believes that the adoption of
these new accounting standards will not have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.

(6)  SUBSEQUENT EVENT - PATENT RIGHTS ACQUISITION

     In January 1998, the Company made the final payment with respect to the
acquisition of certain patent rights pursuant to an agreement entered into in
fiscal 1992 and amended in May 1993.  The Company paid $1,086,250 (the
equivalent of 55,000 shares of common stock) for these patent rights.  The
additional cost of these patent rights will be amortized over the remainder of
the original expected life of ten years.

                   PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (Continued)
                                        
Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
           Condition and Results of Operations

                         HOLOGIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company's results of operations have and may continue to be subject to
significant quarterly variation.  The results for a particular quarter may vary
due to a number of factors, including the overall state of health care and cost
containment efforts, the development status and demand for drug therapies to
treat osteoporosis, the use of mini c-arms in minimally-invasive surgical
procedures, economic conditions in the Company's markets, the timing of orders,
the timing of expenditures in anticipation of future sales, the mix of products
sold by the Company, the introduction of new products and product enhancements
by the Company or its competitors, including the timing of FDA approvals or
clearances for such introductions and pricing and other competitive conditions.

     Revenues.  Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 decreased 4%
to $26,120,648 from $27,109,743 for the first quarter of fiscal 1997.  This
decrease was primarily due to (i) a decrease in DXA bone densitometers sold
internationally, especially in Japan, which were partially offset by an increase
in the United States and (ii) a decrease in the number of mini c-arm systems
sold in the current quarter.  In the United States, an increase in the number of
DXA bone densitometers sold were partially offset by lower average selling
prices primarily attributable to a shift in sales to the lower priced QDR
1000plus.  In the current quarter, the Company's QDR 1000plus comprised almost
two-thirds of total DXA densitometer sales compared to only 13% in the first
quarter of last year.  The shift to this system from the more fully featured
ACCLAIM series was driven by increased sales to the primary care market in the
United States.  The Company began actively selling to this new market in July
1997. ACCLAIM sales to the hospital and radiology markets were lower than in the
previous year which the Company attributes in part to confusion over the HCFA
approved reimbursement rates for bone densitometry.  Although the actual rates
for 1998 increased to $131 from $121, the preliminary rate that was published in
mid - 1997 was significantly lower than the current rate.   Other revenues
increased for the current three month period due to revenues received under a
development agreement for a biochemical marker strip test and an increase in
royalties from the license of the Company's technology to Vivid Technologies,
Inc.

     Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 increased 6% from
$24,631,863 in the immediately preceding quarter primarily due to an increase in
the number of DXA systems sold in the United States and Europe.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
     In the first quarter of fiscal 1998, approximately 67% of product sales
were generated in the United States, 22% in Europe, 7% in other international
markets, and 4% in Asia.  In the first quarter of fiscal 1997, approximately 63%
of product sales were generated in the United States, 21% in Europe, 9% in Asia,
and 7% in other international markets.

     The number of x-ray bone densitometers sold by the Company reached a record
level as interest in bone diseases, such as osteoporosis, has grown, especially
in the primary care market in the United States, as new drug therapies have
become available to treat these diseases and as the use of DXA systems to
measure bone density has become more widespread.

     Costs and Expenses.    The cost of product sales increased as a percentage
of product sales to 51% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 from 45% in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997.  In the current quarter, these costs increased as
a percentage of product sales primarily due to a shift in the product sales mix
to the lower gross margin QDR 1000plus DXA bone densitometers.  Sales of the QDR
1000plus to the primary care market in the United States increased dramatically
in the current quarter and offset a slowdown in sales of the higher gross margin
ACCLAIM densitometers sold to the hospital and radiology markets. In addition,
there was an increase in costs as a percentage of product sales relating to the
mini c-arm systems.

     Research and development expenses increased 35% to $2,339,001 (9% of total
revenues) in the current quarter from $1,731,440 (6% of total revenues) in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997 primarily due to the addition of engineering
personnel working on the development of new products and the funding of Serex to
develop a biochemical marker strip test.
 
     Selling and marketing expenses increased 48% to $6,749,037 (27% of product
sales) in the current quarter from $4,568,730 (17% of product sales) in the
first quarter of fiscal 1997 primarily due to an increase in sales commissions
based on the higher sales volume in areas where commissions are generally paid,
particularly in the United States.  In addition, the Company incurred additional
costs in connection with its strategic alliances for the introduction and
planned introduction of new products and the distribution of products through
new sales channels.

     General and administrative expenses decreased 21% to $2,295,149 (9% of
total revenues) in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 from  $2,907,441 (11% of
total revenues) in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 primarily due to certain
efficiencies achieved through the reduction of personnel in connection with the
integration of FluoroScan.

     Interest Income.  Interest income increased to $1,305,093 in the current
quarter from $1,076,959 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 as the Company had
a higher investment base than in the prior year. In the current quarter, the
Company also increased the number of long-term receivables to Latin American
customers resulting in additional interest income.

     Other Expense.  In the first quarters of fiscal 1998 and 1997, the Company
incurred other expenses of  $89,324 and $116,331, respectively. In the current
quarter, these expenses were primarily attributable to interest costs on the
line of credit established for use by the Company's European subsidiaries to
borrow funds in their local currencies to pay for intercompany sales, thereby
reducing the foreign currency exposure on those transactions and, to a lesser
extent, to 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
foreign currency transaction losses. In the first quarter of fiscal 1997, these
expenses were primarily attributable to foreign currency transaction losses and,
to a lesser extent, to interest costs on the European line of credit. To the
extent that foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate in the future, the Company
may be exposed to continued financial risk. Although the Company has established
a borrowing line denominated in the two foreign currencies (the French Franc and
the Belgian Franc) in which the subsidiaries currently conduct business to
minimize this risk, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful or can fully hedge its outstanding exposure.

     Provision for Income Taxes.  The Company's effective tax rate was 36% in
the first quarters of fiscal 1998 and 1997. The effective tax rate is less than
the combined Federal and state statutory rates due primarily to the favorable
Federal and state tax treatment afforded the Company's foreign sales corporation
and the favorable state tax treatment of certain of the Company's interest
income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At December 27, 1997, working capital was approximately $114 million, and
cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $87 million.  The
Company has funded its operations primarily through cash flows from operations
and the issuance of securities.  The cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments balance increased approximately $2.8 million from September 27, 1997
primarily due to operating activities which included net income of $2.1 million
and an increase in the Company's deferred revenue, which were partially offset
by an increase in inventory.  The Company finances certain sales to Latin
America over a two-to-three year time-frame.  At December 27, 1997, the Company
had long-term accounts receivable outstanding of approximately $3.3 million
relating to these sales which were included in other assets.  As of December 27,
1997, the Company has not experienced any significant change in these
receivables, however, the economic and currency related uncertainties in these
countries may increase the likelihood of non-payment.  In the first quarter of
1998, the Company purchased approximately $530,000 of property and equipment,
primarily computers and other equipment associated with the hiring of additional
personnel.

     The Company does not currently have any significant capital commitments and
believes that existing sources of liquidity, funds expected to be generated from
operations will provide adequate cash to fund the Company's anticipated working
capital and other cash needs for the foreseeable future.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130 Reporting Comprehensive Income
and SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information.  Both SFAS No. 130 and SFAS No. 131 are effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997.  The Company believes that the adoption of
these new accounting standards will not have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.
