DIASENSE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of Diasense, Inc.
(the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information, and with the instructions to Form 10-
Q and Rule 10-O Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30,
1997.
NOTE B - Organization
The Company was incorporated on July 5, 1989 as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Biocontrol Technology, Inc.
(BICO). BICO owns 52% of the stock of the Company as of
December 31, 1997. Diasense is currently developing a
noninvasive glucose sensor (Sensor). The sensor would use
electromagnetic technology to measure blood without
requiring the user to take a blood sample.
NOTE C - Net Loss Per Common Share
Net loss per common share is based on the weighted
average number of outstanding common shares which amounted
to 22,979,150 and 22,974,349 for the periods ended December
31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. The loss per
share does not include common stock equivalents since the
effect would be anti-dilutive.
From July 5, 1989 (inception) to December 31, 1997,
net loss per common share is based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding and the number of common
shares issuable on the exercise of 1,708,000 warrants issued
in 1992; reduced by 488,000 common shares that were assumed
to have been purchased with the proceeds from the exercise of
the warrants at an assumed price of $3.50 per share. The
inclusion of the warrants in the loss per share calculation
is required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission relative to the initial registration statement
which included the Company's financial statements through the
period ended March 31, 1993. The registration statement
became effective July 19, 1993. The weighted average number
of common shares including the effect of the conversion of
the warrants amounted to 18,170,753 for the period from July
5, 1989 (inception) to December 31, 1997.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
NOTE D - Stockholders' Equity
During the three months ended December 31, 1997, the
company sold 1,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to
its registration statement dated July 19, 1993 as amended.
In addition, the exercise date was extended on a
warrant to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock to a
former consultant. The warrant was originally granted at an
exercise price of $1.00 per share and extended at the same
price. The fair market value of the stock when the
extension was granted was $3.50. Diasense Inc. recorded a
$25,000 expense for the difference between the fair market
value and the warrant price times the number of shares.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Cash Flows
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash decreased from $1,871,070 at September 30, 1997,
to $1,087,606 at December 31, 1997. This decrease was
primarily attributable to the Company's $138,425 net cash
flow used by operations and $521,981 net advances to BICO.
Results of Operations
There were no research and development expenses
during the three month period ended December 31, 1997 and
1996 due to the agreed-upon suspension of billings by
Diasense and BICO pursuant to the Research and Development
Agreement.
General and Administrative expenses decreased during
the first quarter from $316,726 for the three month period
ended December 31, 1996 to $168,212 for the three month
period ended December 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily
due to reductions in administrative overhead.
Other income during the first quarter increased from
$16,325 for the three month period ended December 31, 1996
to $21,783 for the three month period ended December 31,
1997. This increase was due to the Company having higher
cash reserves to invest for the period ending December 31,
1997 than during the period ending December 31, 1996.
