              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.      Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of SpaceLabs Medical, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries,
collectively referred to as the "Company." The unaudited interim condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders.

The information furnished reflects, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring items, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results
are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.


2.      Restructuring and Reorganization

During the second quarter of 1996, the Company recorded restructuring and
reorganization charges of $3.3 million related to the continuing consolidation
of its manufacturing and customer service operations. The Company expects to
incur restructuring costs related to these activities through the end of 1996.


3.      Acquisition of in-process Research and Development

The Company completed its acquisition of JRS Clinical Technologies, Inc. and
formed a limited liability corporation with DSA Systems during the first quarter
of 1996. The Company has recorded a one-time, pre-tax charge of $8.8 million
related to the acquisition of in-process research and development in connection
with these investments.


4.      Income per Share

Income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of
common shares plus dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during each
period. Dilutive common share equivalents are calculated under the treasury
stock method and consist of unexercised employee stock options.

*Refer to Taxes and Net Income below

Revenue

In the second quarter of 1996, total revenue of $62.4 million declined 2.6%
compared to the $64.0 million reported in the same quarter last year. This
decline was largely attributable to a 6.7% contraction in U.S. revenue compared
to the same quarter last year. Increases in international revenues of 6.1% over
the second quarter of 1995 partially offset this decline. International revenue
represented 34.9% of total revenue in the second quarter of 1996 compared to
32.1% in the same period of 1995.

Year-to-date revenue of $125.7 million represents a 1.2% decline compared to
$127.2 million last year. The overall revenue decline was attributable to the
contracting U.S. market and the resulting decline in unit sales and continued
pressure on prices. International revenue increased 15.4% to $43.6 million in
1996 from $37.8 million in 1995 and represented 34.7% of total revenue for the
first six months of 1996, compared to 29.7% for the same period in 1995.
Although international revenue has partially offset the declines in the U.S.
market, international markets are very competitive and revenue is volatile and
difficult to predict from quarter to quarter. Uncertainties also arise in the
timing of international revenue due to the need for foreign governmental
approvals and more complex international financing arrangements.


                                      (7)

Gross Margin

Gross margin for the quarter and year-to-date was 50.3% of revenue in 1996
compared to 51.5% in both the second quarter and first six months of 1995.
Aggressive pricing in the highly competitive worldwide market has put pressure
on product margins, and the Company expects to see this trend continue.

Operating Expenses Excluding Non-recurring Items

Operating expenses, excluding non-recurring items, consist of selling, general
and administrative, and research and development costs which declined 2.3% from
$26.2 million in the second quarter of 1995 to $25.6 million in 1996.
Year-to-date these expenses remained constant at $51.9 million in both 1996 and
1995.

For the quarter, selling, general and administrative expenses remained
relatively constant at $18.5 million in 1996 and $18.4 million in 1995.
Year-to-date these expenses were $37.4 million and $36.3 million, representing
29.7% and 28.5% of year-to-date revenues in 1996 and 1995, respectively. This
increase is attributable to the expansion of the Company's international
operations and clinical information systems sales and marketing efforts.

Research and development expenses were $7.2 million in the second quarter of
1996, a decline of 6.5% from the $7.7 million incurred in the same quarter last
year. On a year-to-date basis, these expenses were $14.5 million in 1996 and
$15.5 million in 1995 and represented 11.5% and 12.2% of revenues, respectively.
Research and development expenditures have typically ranged between 11% and 12%
of revenue and management expects this level of expenditures to continue.

Non-Recurring Operating Expenses

For the second quarter of 1996, the Company incurred pre-tax restructuring and
reorganization charges of $3.3 million which primarily related to the relocation
of its Chatsworth, California and Hillsboro, Oregon operations to its new
Redmond, Washington facility. For the year, restructuring and reorganization
expenses were $4.0 million. The Company anticipates an additional $2.5 million
will be required to complete the consolidation by the end of 1996 and
anticipates annual cost savings of approximately $2.0 million as a result of
this consolidation.

As previously announced, the Company expensed $8.8 million of in-process
research and development in the first quarter of 1996 related to its acquisition
of JRS Clinical Technologies, Inc. and its investment with DSA Systems.

                                      (8)
<PAGE>   9
Other Income (Expense)

Net interest income for the second quarter of 1996 declined to $506,000 from
$847,000 in 1995. Year-to-date interest income totaled $1.3 million in 1996
versus $1.5 million in 1995. The decrease in interest income is the result of
lower invested cash balances and a decrease in the rate of return, partially
offset by interest expense of $431,000 capitalized on the Company's new Redmond,
Washington facility in 1996. Also during the quarter, the Company recognized a
$98,000 loss from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations versus a $33,000
gain in the second quarter of 1995. Year-to- date, the Company has recognized a
$174,000 loss from foreign exchange versus a $182,000 gain in 1995.

Taxes and Net Income

The effective tax rate was 37.3% in the first quarters of both 1996 and 1995.
Year-to-date, the Company has incurred income tax expense of $2.4 million on a
pre-tax loss of $350,000 because a substantial portion of acquired in-process
research and development costs, incurred in the first quarter of 1996, is not
deductible for tax purposes. As a result, the Company's year-to-date effective
tax rate was not meaningful. The effective tax rate for the first six months of
1995, was 37.4%, reflecting the mix of federal, state and foreign tax rates.

Net income for the quarter was $3.9 million or $0.37 per share excluding pre-tax
restructuring and reorganization charges of $3.3 million. In the same quarter
last year, net income was $4.8 million or $0.45 per share excluding
restructuring charges of $337,000. Including these charges, the Company
generated net income of $1.8 million or $0.17 per share and $4.6 million or
$0.43 per share in the second quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively.

On a year-to-date basis, the Company generated net income of $7.8 million or
$0.74 per share excluding restructuring and reorganization charges of $4.0
million and the one-time $8.8 million charge discussed above. In 1995, net
income was $9.5 million or $0.89 per share excluding restructuring charges of
$725,000. Including these charges, the Company incurred a net loss of $2.7
million or $0.26 per share for the first six months of 1996 compared to net
income of $9.0 million or $0.84 per share in 1995.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

At June 29, 1996, cash and short-term investments totaled $41.0 million compared
to $52.7 million at December 29, 1995. The short-term investment portfolio is
invested among diversified security types and issuers, and it does not include
any derivative products. During the first six months of 1996, the Company
generated $16.7 million in cash from operations, excluding cash paid to acquire
in-process research and development, compared to $13.7 million during the same
period in 1995. Including in-process research and development expenditures, the
Company generated $10.4 million from operations during the first six months of
1996. At June 29, 1996, the Company's working capital was $136.3 million,
compared to $155.1 million at December 29, 1995. The overall decrease in cash
results from the investing and financing activities described below.

The Company invested $12.4 million in property, plant and equipment during the
first six months of 1996 compared with $5.9 million in the same period last
year. Of these expenditures, $8.0 million was related to construction of the
Company's new facility located in Redmond, Washington, which was substantially
complete by the end of the second quarter of 1996. Other significant uses of
cash during 1996 included the purchase of 375,200 shares of the Company's common
stock for $9.5 million.

The Company continues to make monthly payments of $62,500 on its outstanding
long-term debt of $14.6 million, which is due in total in December, 2002.
Interest on this debt accrues at 6.66%. The Company has available $16.0 million
of domestic lines of credit as well as several small credit lines to meet the
operating requirements of its international subsidiaries.

Management believes that existing cash and short-term investments and cash flow
from operations, together with available credit lines, will continue to be
sufficient to meet ongoing operating requirements as well as the Company's
investment in capital additions and research and development activities. In
connection with research and development, cash may be used from time to time to
acquire technology or to fund strategic ventures.

In June 1993, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to 1,000,000
shares of the Company's common stock in the open market, subject to certain
limitations and conditions. Through the second quarter of 1996, all shares under
this program have been purchased. In November 1995, the Board of Directors
approved a second share repurchase program of up to 1,000,000 shares. Through
the second quarter of 1996, 111,200 shares have been purchased under this second
share repurchase program. Shares acquired under these programs are being used to
service the Company's various employee benefit plans and for other purposes the
Company may deem appropriate.

PART II.

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

On March 31, 1995, a lawsuit was filed against the Company by Baby's Benefit
International, Inc., in federal court in Denver, Colorado, alleging various
claims relating to breach of contract, trade secret misappropriation, and other
tortious conduct, all relating to certain software developed by a third party
software development contractor, at the Company's expense. In July, this
litigation was amicably resolved between the parties on terms which SpaceLabs
believes will be favorable, but not material, to its operations. In connection
with this settlement, there was no admission of liability or wrongdoing by
either party.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The annual meeting of SpaceLabs Medical, Inc.'s shareholders was held on May 9,
1996. The following proposals were submitted to a vote:
