ROCHESTER MEDICAL CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 1996


        NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
        accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
        financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB.
        Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
        required by generally accepted accounting principes for complete
        financial statements. These financial statements should be read in
        conjunction with the financial statments and related notes included in
        the Company's 1995 Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of management, all
        adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered
        necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results
        for the nine month period ending June 30, 1996 are not necessarily
        indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
        September 30, 1996.


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

INTRODUCTION

               Rochester Medical Corporation (the "Company") manufactures and
markets leading edge male external catheters for the management of male urinary
incontinence and leading edge silicone Foley catheters for urinary
catheterization. The Company has also developed several advanced feature
catheters which the Company believes will provide improved medical outcomes and
which are in various stages of commercialization. The Company recently developed
its FemSoft(TM) urethral assist insert for managing stress incontinence in
active women. This new device, which builds on the Company's proprietary liquid
encapsulation technology, is designed to support, rather than obstruct normal
urethral functions and is intended to provide a new treatment modality for
stress incontinence. The new FemSoft(TM) urethral assist insert is a soft and
conformable insert having a reciprocal fluid transfer design which permits it to
be simply inserted, worn, and removed for voiding; all without inflation,
deflation, syringes, or valving mechanisms. The FemSoft(TM) urethral assist
insert may also be expelled by voluntary voiding. The Company markets its
products under its own Rochester Medical(R) brand and under existing private
label arrangements, including a strategic marketing alliance with ConvaTec, a
division of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

               The following table sets forth, for the fiscal periods indicated,
certain items from the statements of operations of the Company expressed as a

</TABLE>


THREE  MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND JUNE 30, 1995

               NET SALES. Net Sales increased 105% to $1,710,603 for the third
quarter of fiscal 1996 from $833,994 for the third quarter of fiscal 1995,
reflecting growth in both private label and Company branded sales. The increase
in private label sales is due primarily to increased sales to Mentor and to
Baxter. Total sales to Mentor, Baxter, and Hollister, respectively, comprised
approximately 37% of net sales, 22% of net sales, and 10% of net sales for the
quarter compared to 27%, 16%, and 20% of net sales for the comparable quarter of
the prior year. Sales of Rochester Medical(R) brand products grew at a rate of
76% during the current quarter, and represented a relatively modest proportion
of product mix due to the strong private label sales.

                Net Sales increased 69% to $3,753,254 for the nine months ended
June 30, 1996, from $2,216,727 for the comparable nine months of the prior year.
Sales of Rochester Medical(R) brand products grew at a rate of 48% during the
current nine months over last year's comparable period. Factors affecting
product mix are consistent with those discussed above for the third quarter.
Total sales to Mentor, Baxter and Hollister comprised, respectively,
approximately 25%, 22%, and 14% of net sales for the current nine month period,
compared to approximately 10%, 21%, and 27% of net sales for the comparable
period of the prior year.

               GROSS MARGIN. The Company's gross margin as a percentage of net
sales was 35% for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with 21% for the
third quarter of fiscal 1995. The Company's gross margin during the current
quarter benefited from increased efficiencies attributable to increased
production volumes for both private label and branded product sales.

                The Company's gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 31%
for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 compared with 23% for the nine months
ended June 30, 1995. Factors affecting gross margin for the nine month period
are consistent with those discussed above for the third quarter.

               MARKETING AND SELLING. Marketing and selling expense increased
53% to $388,485 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $254,409 for the third
quarter of fiscal 1995 due to increased personnel costs and promotional expenses
for branded products. Marketing and selling expense rate decreased to 23% of net
sales in the current quarter from 31% of net sales for the comparable prior
quarter reflecting the impact of 105% sales growth.

               Marketing and selling expense increased 43% to $940,747 for the
nine months ended June 30, 1996 from $660,350 for the nine months ended June 30,
1995. The increased expense reflects personnel and product promotion costs as
discussed above for the current quarter. Marketing and selling expense rate
decreased to 25% of net sales in the current nine month period from 30% of net
sales for the comparable prior nine month period due to increased sales.

               RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expense
increased 526% to $422,974 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $67,560 for
the third quarter of fiscal 1995. The increase is due to the addition of a new
Director of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs and expenditures related to clinical
testing of the Company's new FemSoft(TM) urethral assist device, as well as
other of the Company's products in development. Research and development expense
rate increased to 25% of net sales in the current quarter from 8% for the
comparable prior quarter.

               Research and development expense increased 175% to $819,547 for
the nine months ended June 30, 1996 from $297,830 for the nine months ended June
30, 1995, due to the factors discussed above for the third quarter. Research and
development expense rate increased to 22% of net sales in the current nine month
period from 13% for the comparable prior nine month period.

               GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expense
increased 18% to $257,861 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $217,755 for
the third quarter of fiscal 1995. The expense increase relates to the
development of administrative structures, primarily personnel and systems.
General and administrative expense rate decreased to 15% of net sales in the
current quarter from 26% of net sales for the comparable quarter of the prior
year.

               General and administrative expense increased 80% to $659,835 for
the nine months ended June 30, 1996 from $365,628 for the nine months ended June
30, 1995. The increased expense primarily reflects key personnel costs and
administrative development factors noted above for the current quarter. General
and administrative expense rate increased to 18% of net sales in the current
nine month period from 16% of net sales for the comparable nine month period of
the prior year.

               INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE). Interest income increased to $229,984
for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $7,278 for the third quarter of fiscal
1995, and to $589,624 for the nine months ended June 30, 1996, from $35,154 for
the nine months ended June 30, 1995, as a result of earnings on cash invested in
December 1995 from the proceeds of the Company's public offering. Interest
expense increased to $71,250 for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $10,130
for the third quarter of fiscal 1995, and $213,916 for the nine months ended
June 30, 1996, from $30,400 for the nine months ended June 30, 1995. The
increase in expense is a result of interest due on the $3 million convertible
subordinated loan from ConvaTec made in August 1995, and the elimination of
interest payments on a mortgage loan that was repaid from the proceeds of the
ConvaTec loan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

               The Company's cash and marketable securities at June 30, 1996
were $18,023,577 compared to $2,905,341 at September 30, 1995, a net increase of
$15,118,236. Net proceeds of $16,217,393 from a public stock offering in the
first quarter of the current fiscal year represent the primary source of the
additional liquidity.

               Cash of $903,271 was used to fund operating activities during the
nine month period ended June 30, 1996. Essentially all of this amount relates to
the net operating loss for the nine month period, exclusive of non-cash
depreciation and amortization expenses.

               Trade accounts receivable and inventory balances at June 30,
1996, increased $596,190 (79%) and $327,689 (42%) respectively, from September
30, 1995. Receivable balances reflect the increase in sales levels, and the
inventory build is in preparation for anticipated future sales.

               Changes in other asset and liability balances are insignificant
and relate primarily to timing of expense recognition.

               Capital expenditures of $329,860 were made during the current
nine month period, primarily related to expansion of the existing production
facility and initial expenditures on a new production facility. Patent
expenditures of $79,776 relate to filings on the Company's new FemSoft(TM)
products.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

               The following discussion contains forward looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties, including the timing of purchases by customers,
manufacturing capacities for both current products and new products, the timing
of clinical preference testing and product introductions, and FDA review and
response times, as well as other risk factors listed from time to time in the
Company's SEC reports and filings, including, without limitation, the section
entitled "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB (Part II,
Item 6) for the year ended September 30, 1995, and in the Company's Prospectus
dated July 25, 1996.

               Consolidation and integration in the domestic health care
industry have tended to favor growth of private label sales over growth in sales
of branded products. The Company is engaged in strategic planning to identify
appropriate market opportunities for its current products and for its newer
products in development. The Company intends to develop and refine marketing
strategies for each of its products, and to structure its domestic sales and
marketing organization to address these market trends. The Company's continuing
sales growth of private label products partly depends upon continuing purchases
by Mentor Corporation. Mentor holds a patent license from the company which
would permit Mentor to commence manufacturing the silicone male external
catheter which it presently purchases from the Company. However, the Company has
not been advised by Mentor that it intends to establish a facility to
manufacture such product itself.

               Sales growth has consumed much of the Company's excess
manufacturing capacity for certain of its current products. The Company
presently anticipates continuing sales growth for such products, including
growth which may result from future purchases by ConvaTec, as well as by other
of the Company's customers. As a result, the Company is presently planning to
expand it manufacturing capacities for such products. Unseasonable weather
conditions and delays in receiving federally required permits caused temporary
construction delays for the Company's new manufacturing and office facilities.
The Company presently expects to occupy the new facilities and to commence
manufacturing operations at the new facilities by mid 1997.

               The Company recently filed its Investigational Plan with the FDA
for its new FemSoft(TM) urethral assist insert and expects to begin clinical
testing of this new device by calendar year end, with the results to be
submitted to the FDA during 1997 as a part of a PMA application for that device.
The Company and ConvaTec are currently finalizing arrangements for joint
clinical preference testing of the intermittent Personal(TM) catheter, the
Comfort Sleeve(TM) Foley catheter, and the FemSoft(TM) continuous drain
catheter, and the Company anticipates that clinical preference testing of those
products will begin in the coming months. Each of those products has already
received marketing approval from the FDA, and the clinical preference testing
will be conducted for marketing related purposes. The Company is presently
completing clinical testing of its Medicated Foley catheter at the University of
Wisconsin Medical School, and expects that the results of those tests will be
announced by calendar year end. If the results are favorable, the Company
intends to resubmit a 510-K marketing approval application for the Medicated
Foley catheter to the FDA.

               The FDA recently proposed labeling regulations requiring medical
products containing latex to be marked as such and prohibiting such products
from being labeled as "hypoallergenic." The Company believes the proposed FDA
regulations, if adopted, may have a beneficial effect on the Company's future
sales.

               The Company anticipates significant capital requirements in the
near future in order to finance expanded manufacturing facilities and equipment
for its current products and for its new FemSoft(TM) female incontinence product
line, to continue its marketing efforts, including the expansion of its
marketing and sales operations, to conduct clinical testing for products in
development, and to bring such products to market.

               The Company's current cash resources should be sufficient to
finance these requirements for the foreseeable future; however, management
intends to pursue appropriate debt financing alternatives for new production
facilities and equipment. Management also intends to evaluate the additional
capital requirements occasioned by the Company's development of its new
FemSoft(TM) urethral assist device, and to consider such additional debt or
equity financing as may be necessary or appropriate for the commercialization of
that product.
