                       LUNAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The consolidated financial statements of Lunar Corporation (the
"Company") presented herein, without audit except for balance sheet
information at June 30, 1995, 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 June 30, 1995, included in the Company's Form 10-K as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 27, 1995. 

     The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1996, the consolidated
statements of income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended
March 31, 1996 and 1995 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
Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior year information
to conform with the current presentation format.

     The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31,
1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
entire fiscal year ending June 30, 1996.

(2)  INVENTORIES

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is

(3)  MARKETABLE SECURITIES

     Effective December 31, 1995, the Company reclassified its marketable
securities portfolio from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale.

(4)  STOCK DIVIDEND

     The Company distributed a 3-for-2 stock split in the form of a stock
dividend on December 21, 1995.  All share and per-share data has been
adjusted to eflect the stock dividend.

(5)  TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER AND SPIN-OFF OF SUBSIDIARY

     In October 1995, the Company contributed its ownership of Continental
Assays Corporation and certain assets with a book value of $175,867 for
1,698,674 shares of common stock of Bone Care International, Inc. ("Bone
Care"), a subsidiary of the Company.  In October 1995, the Company also
exchanged $634,683 of loans receivable from Bone Care for 107,401 shares of
Bone Care common stock.  These transactions created a single vitamin D
development business owned by Bone Care. 

     On April 18, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
dividend, payable to holders of record of its common stock at the close of
business on April 24, 1996 (the "record date"), of one share of Bone Care
common stock for every two shares of the Company's common stock.  The
distribution occurred on May 8, 1996 (the "distribution date").  Prior to the
distribution, the Company made a capital contribution of $10,725,000 in
exchange for additional common stock of Bone Care and to pay for federal
income tax benefits received from Bone Care.  As a result of the
distribution, the Company's 97.3% ownership of Bone Care's common stock was
distributed to holders of the Company's common stock as of the record date.
Bone Care's total assets as of the distribution date were approximately
$12,650,000.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

           =======         =======           =======          =======

     The increase in DPX sales in the current fiscal year is primarily
attributable to increased shipments in the United States, which the Company
believes are related to the introduction of Fosamax, a new drug therapy for
osteoporosis introduced by Merck in October 1995.  Achilles sales decreased
in the quarter ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the quarter ended March
31, 1995 due to lower sales in Japan.

     Cost of sales as a percentage of equipment sales averaged approximately
46% and 45% in the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 1996,
compared to 46% and 42% in the three and nine month periods ended March 31,
1995.  This increase is primarily a result of increased sales of the
lower-margin EXPERT and Artoscan extremity MRI products and proportionately
less sales of the higher-margin Achilles.  The three and nine month periods
ended March 31, 1995 included a special charge of $400,000 to accrue for
upgrading the installed base of EXPERT systems.  The cost of sales as a
percentage of equipment sales would have averaged approximately 43% and 41%
in the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 1995 without this special
charge.  

     Research and development expenditures increased to $1,489,000 in the
three months ended March 31, 1996 from $1,085,000 in the three months ended
March 31, 1995, and to $4,361,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 1996
from 3,090,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 1995.  These increases are
primarily attributable to expenditures related to the development of the DPX-
IQ bone densitometer and the ORCA mini C-arm.  Bone Care, the Company's 97.3%
owned pharmaceutical development subsidiary, also increased expenditures for
clinical testing of 1-alpha D2 in the treatment of secondary
hyperparathyroidism associated with end-stage renal disease.  The Company
spun-off Bone Care to its shareholders in a tax-free distribution on May 8,
1996.  The future costs of these clinical trials and any other costs related
to the research and development of vitamin D compounds will therefore no
longer be included in the Company's consolidated net income after the
distribution.  Bone Care had a net loss of $762,000 through the nine month
period ended March 31, 1996.

     Sales and marketing expenses were $3,606,000 in the three months ended
March 31, 1996 and $2,613,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1995,
representing 21% of equipment sales for both time periods.  For the nine
months ended March 31, 1996, sales and marketing expenses were $9,945,000 as
compared to $7,160,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1995, representing
a decrease to 21% from 23% as a percentage of equipment sales.

     General and administrative expenses decreased to $836,000 in the three
months ended March 31, 1996 from $980,000 in the three months ended March 31,
1995, and increased to $3,718,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 1996
from $2,583,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 1995.  The increase during
the first six months of fiscal 1996 is primarily attributable to higher legal
expenses.  Lunar had been involved in several patent lawsuits initiated in
September 1994 with Hologic, Inc., a Massachusetts-based competitor, related
to x-ray and ultrasound densitometers.  These lawsuits were settled on
November 22, 1995, resulting in a decrease in general and administration
expenses during the three months ended March 31, 1996.

     Interest income was $410,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1996
compared to $340,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1995, and $1,194,000
in the nine months ended March 31, 1996, as compared to $965,000 in the nine
months ended March 31, 1995.  These increases are primarily the result of
increases in the amount of financed receivables.  The Company expects after-
tax interest income to decline by approximately $96,000 per quarter after the
spinoff of Bone Care, which will include Bone Care's projected cash balances
of approximately $11,400,000.

     The effective tax rate averaged 31% and 28% in the three and nine month
periods ended March 31, 1996 compared to 25% in the three and nine month
periods ended March 31, 1995.  These rates are below the 34% federal
statutory rate as a result of the tax benefit from the Company's foreign
sales corporation, Lunar FSC, Inc., and tax-exempt interest income, but
offset by the provision for state income taxes.  The effective tax rate has
been trending higher in the current fiscal year due to increased profits from
sales within the United States, which do not benefit from foreign sales
corporation treatment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

     Cash and cash equivalents increased $7,274,000 to $9,851,000 in the nine
months ended March 31, 1996.  The Company also has a laddered portfolio of
high-grade municipal bonds with various maturities not exceeding 48 months.
The Company owned approximately $7,963,000 in municipal securities as of
March 31, 1996, which are readily marketable.  On May 8, 1996, the Company
contributed $10,725,000 in cash to Bone Care in exchange for additional
common stock of Bone Care and to pay for federal income tax benefits received
from Bone Care.

     The Company's accounts receivable increased 31% to $31,406,000 at March
31, 1996 from $24,029,000 at June 30, 1995.  This increase is primarily due
to a 35% increase in sales in the third quarter of fiscal year 1996 as
compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1995.  Inventories increased
46% to $9,729,000 at March 31, 1996 from $6,651,000 at June 30, 1995.  The
increase in finished goods and work in progress is primarily attributable to
increases in Artoscan MRI units.  The increase in materials and purchased
parts is primarily due to an increase in production of EXPERT and DPX
systems.  The Company does not have any pending material commitments for
capital expenditures.  

     Management believes the current level of cash and short-term investments
is adequate to finance the Company's operations for the foreseeable future.
