                                 MARCH 31, 1996



NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LifeQuest
Medical, Inc. (the "Company"), LifeQuest Endoscopic Technologies, Inc.
("LQET"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (Note 3), and the Company's
74% ownership interest in ValQuest Medical, Inc.  All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The
consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission.  However, all adjustments have been made which are, in
the opinion of the Company, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the periods covered.  In addition, all such adjustments are 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 pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading.  It is recommended that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995,
included in the Company's Form 10-K.

From inception through December 31, 1995, the Company was a development stage
enterprise whose efforts and resources were devoted primarily to research and
development activities related to its initial products.

NOTE 2 -- NET LOSS PER SHARE

Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period.  Common stock
equivalents are not considered in the computation as their effect is
antidilutive.

NOTE 3 -- MERGER OF GM ENGINEERING, INC.

On February 13, 1996, but effective January 1, 1996, the Company completed the
merger of GM Engineering, Inc., a California corporation ("GME") with and into
LifeQuest Endoscopic Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation and newly formed
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  GME was acquired through the issuance
of 350,000 shares of LifeQuest common stock.  The transaction was recorded
using the pooling of interests method of accounting, therefore the assets,
liabilities, and operations of GME are included in the consolidated financial
statements for all periods reported.

For the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and 1996 respectively, the separate
results of the combined entities was a net loss of $596,739 and $348,979 for
the Company and a net loss of $189,243 and $173,535 for LQET.

to research and development activities related to its initial products.  During
this development stage, the Company received minimal operating revenues and,
thus, was unprofitable.  As of March 31, 1996, the Company had an accumulated
deficit of approximately $13,089,000.  There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to achieve or sustain profitability.

         The Company's future operating results will depend on many factors,
including the Company's ability to manufacture and market its products on a
cost-effective basis, demand for the Company's products and the level of
competition in the market place.

         In February 1996, the Company completed the merger of GM Engineering,
Inc., a California corporation ("GM Engineering") with and into LifeQuest
Endoscopic Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("LQET") and newly formed
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  GM Engineering was acquired through
the issuance of 350,000 shares of LifeQuest common stock.  The transaction was
recorded using the pooling of interests method of accounting, therefore the
assets, liabilities and operations of GM Engineering are included in the
consolidated financial statements for all periods reported.  LQET develops,
manufactures, and markets surgical and related instruments used in minimally
invasive surgery and, as GM Engineering, recorded sales of approximately $1
million in fiscal 1995.

         In May 1994, the Company and Valdor Fiber Optics ("Valdor") of San
Jose, California, formed a corporate joint venture called ValQuest Medical,
Inc. ("ValQuest").  In accordance with the terms of the joint venture
agreement, Valdor transferred to ValQuest the exclusive worldwide rights to
develop, manufacture, and market all present and future medical applications of
Valdor's patented fiber optic connector technology.  The Company paid $100,000
to Valdor in consideration for the transfer of these rights to ValQuest.
Valdor contributed such rights, which had an initial value of $327,273 in the
consolidated financial statements, to ValQuest in exchange for a 45% interest
in ValQuest.  The Company contributed $400,000 to be used as working capital in
exchange for a 55% interest in ValQuest.  Currently, subsequent purchases of
additional stock have increased the Company's ownership interest in ValQuest to
74%.

         The Company submitted its PMA application to the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) for the Osteoport(R) device on July 19, 1993.  On May 9,
1995, the FDA informed the Company that additional information will be required
to enable completion of the Osteoport(R) PMA application review.  Required
information may include clarifications and further analysis of existing data
and/or additional patient studies.  However, the Company does not plan to
initiate any further work on the Osteoport(R) device unless an appropriate
corporate partner can be identified.  This decision stems from management's
current concern about the likelihood of incurring prohibitively high costs in
clarifying and addressing FDA's requests for additional information since the
July 1993 PMA submission.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and
investments of approximately $4,724,000 and working capital of $4,024,000.  The
Company believes these funds will be sufficient to complete the development
and, subject to obtaining required regulatory approvals, commercialization of
its current products.  However, there can be no assurance that the available
cash will prove to be sufficient to complete any of these activities.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996

         Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was $523,000, a
decrease of 34 percent from the $786,000 net loss for the comparable period of
1995.  The decline was primarily due to a reduction in expenses as detailed
hereinafter.

         Sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were $200,000
and $211,000 respectively.  The decline in sales was related to the distraction
and disruption caused by the acquisition of GM Engineering by the Company.  As
part of the acquisition due diligence, a portion of production had been
earmarked for product testing and, therefore, was not available to sell.



                                     -9-
<PAGE>   10

         Research and development expenses decreased 64 percent to $93,000 from
$255,000.  The increased costs in 1995 were primarily due to expenses incurred
in conjunction with development of the First-Med system.  The Company
anticipates the research and development focus for 1996 will be enhancement of
LQET's current products and development of future products.  Therefore,
research and development costs should increase slightly during 1996.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses, which consist primarily
of salaries and other costs necessary to support the Company's infrastructure,
decreased 36 percent to $450,000 in 1996 from $704,000 in 1995.  This
comparative decline is a result of management's continuing efforts to reduce
expenses.

         The minority interest in net loss of consolidated subsidiary of
$11,185 reflects the minority ownership share of the ValQuest net loss for the
three months ended March 31, 1996.  The Company is in the process of moving the
ValQuest assembly operations from San Jose, California, to the LQET facilities
in La Verne, California.  Management believes this move will eliminate
duplication of overheads and improve efficiencies.

         Investment income represents interest earned on proceeds from private
and public sales of the Company's equity securities and gains on sales of
marketable securities.

         Merger and acquisition costs include legal, accounting and testing
expenses incurred during the acquisition of GM Engineering.

         In March 1995, the FASB issued Statement No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,
which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets'
carrying amount.  Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived
assets that are expected to be disposed of.  Management does not believe, based
on current circumstances, Statement 121 will have a material effect on the
carrying amount of the Company's long-lived assets.

         As of March 31, 1996, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
of approximately $10,386,000 for federal income tax purposes which are
available to reduce future taxable income and will expire in 2006 through 2011
if not utilized and $12,441,000 for financial reporting purposes.  For federal
income tax purposes the Company deferred for future amortization certain
acquisition and research and development costs in the amount of $2,453,000.
Such costs, which have been expensed for financial reporting purposes, will be
amortized for tax purposes over future years when commercial operations
commence.  The Company received IRS approval of its request for a change of tax
accounting method to expense research and development costs for expenditures
incurred in 1992 and future years.

         The Company's ability to use its NOL carryforwards to offset future
taxable income is subject to restrictions enacted in the United States Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the "Code").  These restrictions provide for
limitations on the Company's utilization of its NOL carryforwards following
certain ownership changes described in the Code.  As a result of ownership
changes in 1996, the Company's existing NOL carryforwards are subject to the
limitation.  The amount subject to limitation at March 31, 1996, is
approximately $506,000.
