(1)  UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The interim consolidated financial statements of Diametrics Medical, Inc.
     (the "Company") are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
     financial information, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to such rules and regulations,
     certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in
     the financial statements have been consolidated or omitted. However, in the
     opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments,
     consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation
     of the interim periods presented. Operating results for these interim
     periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
     entire year, due to seasonal, operating and other factors.

     These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and related notes which are incorporated by reference in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

(2)  RECLASSIFICATIONS

     Certain 1996 amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Operations have been
     reclassified from prior reported balances to conform to the 1997
     presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on the net loss or loss
     per share as reported in 1996.

(3)  INVENTORIES

     On November 6, 1996, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock
     of Biomedical Sensors, Ltd. (BSL), an operating unit of Pfizer Inc., and
     certain assets from Howmedica, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pfizer
     Inc., for $1,500,000 in cash and a $7,300,000 senior secured fixed rate
     loan note, due November 4, 2002. The Company has accounted for the
     acquisition using the purchase method. As such, the excess of the purchase
     price over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was recorded
     as goodwill, which consisted of purchased technology and other intangible
     assets totaling $2,305,899.

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

     Statements regarding the Company's expectations about new and existing
     products, future financial performance and other forward looking statements
     are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including, without
     limitation, demand and acceptance of new and existing products,
     technological advances and product obsolescence, competitive factors and
     the availability of capital to finance growth. These and other risks are
     discussed in greater detail in Exhibit 99 to the Company's Form 10-K filed
     with the Securities and Exchange Commission, with respect to the Company's
     fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

     SUMMARY
     -------

     Diametrics Medical, Inc. (the "Company"), which began operations in 1990,
     is engaged in the development, manufacturing and marketing of critical care
     blood analysis systems, which provide immediate or continuous diagnostic
     results at the point of patient care.

     Since its commencement of operations in 1990, the Company has transitioned
     from a development stage company to a full-scale manufacturing and sales
     organization. As of June 30, 1997, the primary funding for the operations
     of the Company has been approximately $108.9 million raised through public
     and private sales of its equity securities and issuance of convertible
     promissory notes, all of which have been repaid or converted into common
     stock.

     As noted in Footnote 4, "Pro Forma Information", in November 1996 the
     Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock of Biomedical Sensors,
     Ltd. (BSL), an operating unit of Pfizer Inc., and certain assets from
     Howmedica, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer Inc. The combined
     operations of these former Pfizer entities are collectively referred to
     below as "Biomedical Sensors". Based in England, the new subsidiary,
     Diametrics Medical, Ltd. (DML), brings an existing product line which
     includes indwelling continuous blood monitoring systems utilizing fiber
     optic and electrochemical technology platforms. Current products include
     Paratrend 7, an intravascular blood gas monitoring system, and Neocath, a
     continuous oxygen monitoring system for newborns. Both products consist of
     a monitoring system and intravascular disposable sensors.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     ---------------------

     SALES Sales of the Company's products were $2,607,679 and $4,562,645 for
     the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $583,530 and
     $1,193,101 for the same periods last year, an increase of 347% and 282%,
     respectively. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997
     over the prior year reflects the inclusion of sales related to DML and also
     a 142% and 94% increase, respectively, in sales of IRMA instruments and
     cartridges. Compared to a pro forma combined basis of Diametrics' and
     Biomedical Sensors' sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
     sales increased 50% and 48% for the same periods in 1997.

     The Company's revenues are affected principally by the number of Paratrend
     7, Neocath and IRMA instruments placed with customers and the rate at which
     disposable sensors and cartridges are used in connection with these
     products. As of June 30, 1997, the Company has over 1,700 monitors and IRMA
     instruments at customer locations consuming the Company's fiber optic and
     electrochemical sensors for critical care blood and tissue analysis.
     Disposable fiber optic sensor units sold for the six months ended June 30,
     1997 increased 22% over Biomedical Sensors' unit sales as a Pfizer
     operating unit for the same period in 1996, and IRMA disposable cartridge
     units sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 increased 131%
     and 120%, respectively, over the comparable periods in 1996.

     The Company's revenue in the last half of 1997 is expected to exceed that
     of the first half, with revenues for the full year 1997 potentially more
     than doubling the level achieved in 1996. The projected revenue growth is
     the result of continued market penetration, further planned expansion of
     the blood analysis and monitoring product lines and the inclusion of a full
     year of sales from DML.

                                       8

     COST OF SALES The Company incurred manufacturing costs associated with
     product sales of $2,821,574 and $5,649,520 for the three and six months
     ended June 30, 1997, compared to $2,145,907 and $4,544,952 for the same
     periods in the prior year, an increase of 31% and 24%, respectively. The
     increase over the prior year reflects the inclusion of manufacturing costs
     related to the operations of DML, partially offset by reductions in IRMA
     cartridge manufacturing costs. Compared to a pro forma combined basis of
     Diametrics' and Biomedical Sensors' manufacturing costs for the three and
     six months ended June 30, 1996, costs decreased 7% and 9%, respectively,
     for the same periods in 1997. The improvement in manufacturing expenses
     reflects increased fiber optic sensor and IRMA cartridge volumes, improved
     yields, increased shelf life of cartridges and better control of overhead
     costs.

     A negative gross profit resulted as sales volume was not yet sufficient to
     cover labor, material and overhead costs. The Company, however, expects
     unit costs to continue to decline in 1997 as sales volumes increase and
     continued improvements are realized in manufacturing yields, processes,
     costs and product design. Depending upon product mix and production
     volumes, gross margins are targeted to approximate break-even levels for
     the full year 1997.

     OPERATING EXPENSES Research and development expenditures were $1,772,087
     and $3,561,463 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, compared
     to $1,804,950 and $3,192,918 for the same periods in the prior year. The
     decrease for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and increase for the six
     months ended June 30, 1997, reflects inclusion of expenses related to the
     operations of DML, offset in the second quarter 1997 by a 41% expense
     reduction and in the 1997 year-to-date period by a 34% expense reduction in
     Diametrics' U.S. operations. Compared to a pro forma combined basis of
     Diametrics' and Biomedical Sensors' research and development costs for the
     three and six months ended June 30, 1996, costs decreased 28% and 20%,
     respectively, for the same periods in 1997, due to the completion during
     1996 of development of the IRMA SL, and the impact of staff reductions in
     the Company's U.S. operations in late 1996.

     Sales and marketing expenses totaled $1,954,638 and $3,943,426 for the
     three and six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $1,670,447 and
     $3,280,006 for the same periods in 1996. The period-to-period increases
     reflect the inclusion of expenses related to the operations of DML.
     Compared to a pro forma combined basis of Diametrics' and Biomedical
     Sensors' sales and marketing expenses for the three and six months ended
     June 30, 1996, expenses decreased 20% and 17%, respectively, for the same
     periods in 1997, due to cost containment and better deployment of
     resources.

     General and administrative expenses totaled $986,935 and $1,938,014 for the
     three and six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $772,775 and
     $1,507,654 for the same periods in 1996. The period-to-period increases
     reflect the inclusion of expenses related to the operations of DML.
     Compared to a pro forma combined basis of Diametrics' and Biomedical
     Sensors' general and administrative expenses for the three and six months
     ended June 30, 1996, general and administrative expenses decreased 6% and
     5%, respectively, for the same periods in 1997, due primarily to the impact
     of staff reductions in the Company's U.S. operations in late 1996.

     Restructuring and other charges totaled $163,204 for both the three and six
     month periods ended June 30, 1997, compared to $303,864 and $525,301,
     respectively, for the same periods in 1996. 1997 charges reflect severance
     costs associated with a work force reduction, primarily in the Company's
     U.S. manufacturing operations. 1996 charges reflect severance costs
     associated with a restructuring of the management team and work force
     reductions primarily in manufacturing and research and development. These
     restructuring activities were completed before the end of the second
     quarter of the years in which charges were incurred, and the Company does
     not have any future cash obligations relative to the described
     restructuring activities. The impact of the headcount reductions on future
     operating results and cash flows is not expected to be material, as savings
     achieved in these areas have been and will continue to be reinvested in
     other areas of the Company, including the Company's international
     operations.

     Operating expense run rates for the remaining two quarters in 1997 are
     targeted to approximate or moderately exceed second quarter 1997 levels.

     OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) Net other expense was $163,275 and $333,065 for the
     three and six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to net other income of
     $49,942 and $245,249 for the same periods in the prior year, a decrease of
     $213,217 and $578,314, respectively. The Company realized interest income
     of $126,402 and $258,635 for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997,
     compared to $263,766 and $626,752 for the same periods in the prior year.
     The period-to-period decrease reflects the impact of lower average cash
     balances resulting from a net use of cash in operations.

     Interest expense totaled $257,910 and $529,635 for the three and six months
     ended June 30, 1997, compared to $134,034 and $273,641 for the same periods
     in 1996. The period-to-period increase primarily reflects interest accrued
     on a long-term note payable to Pfizer Inc. issued in connection with the
     Company's acquisition of Biomedical Sensors in November 1996.

     NET LOSS The net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 was
     $5,254,034 and $11,026,047, compared to $6,064,471 and $11,612,481 for the
     same periods in 1996. Compared to a pro forma combined basis of Diametrics'
     and Biomedical Sensors' net loss for the three and six months ended June
     30, 1996, the net loss decreased 30% and 25%, respectively, for the same
     periods in 1997. The Company is targeting a reduced net loss in the last
     half of 1997, compared to the first half of 1997.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     -------------------------------

     At June 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $16,788,280, an
     increase of $10,138,793 from the working capital reported at December 31,
     1996. The increase primarily reflects the impact of $11.9 million net
     proceeds received in January 1997 with the completion of a private equity
     placement of 750,000 shares of convertible preferred stock and $7.9 million
     net proceeds received in June 1997 with the completion of a private equity
     placement of 1,422,222 shares of common stock less the net cash used in
     operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June
     30, 1997.

     On August 4, 1997, the Company announced it called the warrants issued in
     conjunction with a private equity placement in January of this year.
     Effective July 31, 1997, warrants for 750,000 shares of common stock at
     $5.0625 per share were called, providing additional funding of $3.8 million
     for the Company if all warrants are exercised. Warrant holders have until
     August 29, 1997 to exercise. As of August 11, 1997, 51,250 shares were
     exercised resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $259,453.

     At June 30, 1997, the Company had property and equipment of $17,041,647, up
     from $16,295,952 at December 31, 1996, less accumulated depreciation of
     $9,241,429 and $8,008,200 at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
     respectively. The $746,000 net increase in the cost of property and
     equipment is the result of approximately $1,448,000 of capital additions,
     consisting primarily of investments in production equipment and
     demonstration instruments used to facilitate sales, less retirements of
     approximately $488,000 and foreign currency translation decreases of
     approximately $185,000. Approximately $3,650,000 of the Company's property
     and equipment are financed through capital lease obligations at June 30,
     1997. In 1997, the Company expects capital expenditures and new lease
     commitments to approximate $3 million, primarily reflecting investments to
     support new product development and production.

     At June 30, 1997, the Company had U.S. net operating loss and research and
     development tax credit carryforwards for income tax purposes of
     approximately $84,000,000 and $1,000,000 respectively. Pursuant to the Tax
     Reform Act of 1986, use of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards
     may be limited if a cumulative "change in ownership" of more than 50
     percent occurs within any three year period. In connection with prior sales
     by the Company of its securities in public and private offerings, the
     Company has experienced a "change in ownership." As a result, the
     utilization of the Company's net operating loss and certain credit
     carryforwards incurred prior to these changes are subject to annual
     limitations.

     The Company's foreign subsidiary also has net operating loss carryforwards
     of approximately $35,800,000 which can be carried forward indefinitely.

     As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the
     Company has incurred a net loss of $5,254,034 and $11,026,047 for the three
     and six months ended June 30, 1997. In addition, the Company has incurred
     net losses and has had negative cash flows from operating activities since
     inception. In January and June 1997 the Company completed two private
     placements which generated net cash proceeds to the Company of
     approximately $19.8 million. The Company believes current working capital
     and projected operating revenues for the remainder of 1997 and 1998,
     supplemented by proceeds from employee stock plans, warrant exercises and
     asset based credit, may provide the Company with sufficient liquidity
     through most of 1998. If capital requirements vary materially from those
     currently planned, the Company could require additional capital at an
     earlier time. Additional funds may also be required for the Company to meet
     significantly greater than anticipated demand for its products. As a
     result, the Company has and will continue to evaluate raising additional
     capital through alliances with strategic corporate partners, issuance of
     debt, or an equity offering. There can be no assurance that adequate funds
     will be available when needed or on acceptable terms. The Company's long-
     term capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including the
     rate of market acceptance of the Company's products, the level of resources
     devoted to expanding the sales and marketing organization, manufacturing
     capabilities and the Company's research and development activities.

ITEM 2.   CHANGES IN SECURITIES

     On June 10, 1997, the Company completed the sale in a private placement of
     1,422,222 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common
     Stock"), at a price of $5.625 per share, for aggregate proceeds of
     $8,000,000. Each purchaser of Common Stock also received a detachable
     warrant to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock for each four
     shares of common stock purchased, with an exercise price (subject to
     adjustment) equal to $6.75 per share. Such warrants were immediately
     exercisable. The securities were privately sold to certain accredited
     investors. The securities were sold pursuant to Rule 506 under Regulation D
     of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

     The Company issued stock warrants in 1992 in conjunction with private
     bridge financing agreements with certain shareholders and outside
     investors. The detachable warrants are exercisable up to five years from
     the date of purchase at an exercise price of $4.77 per share. During the
     quarter ended June 30, 1997, 6,637 shares of the Company's common stock
     were issued in connection with such warrants, with proceeds amounting to
     $31,658. The securities were sold pursuant to Rule 506 under Regulation D
     of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
