NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Period Ending March 31, 1997
(Unaudited)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Endovascular, Inc., a California
corporation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Although unaudited, the interim consolidated financial statements in this
report reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals,
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods covered and of the financial condition of the Company at the
interim balance sheet dates. The results of operations for the interim
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected
for the entire year.
The year-end balance sheet information was derived from audited
consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles. These consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1996.
The Company has experienced recurring loses from operations and has an
accumulated deficit of $15,831,713 at March 31, 1997. These matters raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.

-------- ----------
-------- ----------
A substantial portion of the note payable to Ballard was applied to the
purchase price of the assets sold on March 20, 1997 (see Note 5).
5. Acquisition or Distribution of Assets:
On February 28, 1997, Ballard, through a wholly owned subsidiary, delivered
notice to the Company of its exercise of its option to purchase all the
Company's assets pursuant to the Stock Purchase and Option Agreement
entered into on July 17, 1995 as amended (the "Option Agreement"). The
Option Agreement was approved by the Company's stockholders at special
meeting which took place on November 13, 1995. On March 20, 1997, Neuro
Navigational Corporation, now known as Kinetic Ventures Ltd., a Delaware
Corporation, completed the sale of substantially all of its assets to
Ballard Medical Products, a Utah corporation
The purchase price for the assets was $4,245,422, plus an adjustment for
prepaid rent of $2,233. Deducted from the purchase price were the $500,000
consideration paid in 1995 for the option under the Option Agreement,
$198,631 of liabilities assumed, $3,671,471 of principal and interest owing
by the Company to Ballard and liquid assets of $11,695, or a net purchase
price deficiency of $134,142.
The Company's 200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were redeemed and
retired. The deficiency of $134,142 in the payment of the purchase price
is represented by the Company's 10% promissory note due on demand. Such
note is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. Concurrently
with the sale of the Company's assets, pursuant to authorization granted by
the stockholders at the special meeting held on
7
<PAGE>
November 13, 1995, the Company changed it name to Kinetic Ventures Ltd.
6. Income Taxes:
At December 31, 1996 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for
federal and state purposes of approximately $16,490,000 and $8,290,000,
respectively. In addition, the Company had research and experimentation
credit carryforwards for federal and state purposes of approximately
$350,000 and $132,000, respectively. These tax loss carryforwards will
offset any current tax liability from the sale of the Company's assets to
Ballard, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded at
March 31, 1997.
7. COMMITMENTS:
The Companies noncancelable operating leases for office space and equipment
were assumed by Ballard as part of the sale of the assets on March 20,
1997.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On March 20, 1997 the Company completed the sale, pursuant to a Stock
Purchase and Option Agreement dated July 17, 1995, of substantially all its
assets to Ballard Medical Products ("Ballard"). Reference should be made
to the Company's Annual Report on From 10-KSB for the year ended December
31, 1996 and its Current Report on Form 8-K for March 20, 1997 for a
description of the transaction and the Company's future business plans.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-QSB. In addition the Company desires to take advantage of
certain provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 that provide a "safe harbor" for forward looking statements made by
or on behalf of the Company. Except for the historical information
contained herein, the matters discussed herein are forward looking
statement, the accuracy of which is necessarily subject to risks and
uncertainties. Specifically, the Company wishes to alert readers that the
information set forth in "Item 1. Description of Business-Proposed
business Plans," and the Company's intentions and efforts to enter into
further business activities contained in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996 are forward looking
statements. Various factors, including the inability of management to
identify, locate and acquire in a timely manner future business
activities, among other matters discussed in this Report, may adversely
affect the Company's ability to remain in existence. Failure to locate
further business activities could lead to the dissolution of the Company.
Until the Company is successful in entering into further business
activities, it can be expected that its revenues will be nominal.
NET SALES
Net Sales decreased to $345,450 for the three months and year to date
ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $749,311 for the three months and
year to date ended March 31, 1996 a decrease of 54%. For the quarter and
year to date, the decrease in sales is attributable to a decrease in
sales through an international distributor and the uncertainty in the
marketplace due to the impending sale of the Company's assets. In
addition, because of the closing of the sale of the Company's assets on
March 20, 1997, the Company had no revenues subsequent to March 20, 1997.

<PAGE>
GROSS PROFIT
Gross Profit decreased to $91,476 for the three months and year to date
ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $200,830 for the three months and
year to date ended March 31, 1996 a decrease of 54%. This decrease in
both the quarter and year to date was due to lower sales volume.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and Development expenses represent the Company's investment in
the advancement of less invasive technology in the fields of neuro and
vascular surgery. These expenses decreased to $110,919 for the three
months and year to date ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $299,923 for
the three months and year to date ended March 31, 1996 a decrease of 63%.
This decrease was due to a decrease in personnel and related benefit
costs and an reduced spending in expenses related to the Company's
vascular products including clinical and regulatory submissions.
SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES
Sales and Marketing expenses were $315,137 for the three months and year
to date ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $427,733 for the three months
and year to date ended March 31, 1996 a decrease of 26%. This decrease
was related to lower sales volume.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses were $209,527 for the three months
and year to date ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $247,829 for the
three months and year to date ended March 31, 1996 a decrease of 15%. The
decrease for the three months and year to date was due primarily to
reduced insurance premiums for product liability coverage and Directors
and Officers liability insurance.
NET INCOME (LOSS)
Net Income for the three months and year to date ended March 31, 1997 was
$1,228,639 as compared to a net loss of $784,075 for the three months and
year to date ended March 31, 1996 an increase of $2,012,714. The increase
for the three months and year to date is primarily attributable to the
gain on sale of the Company's assets on March 20, 1977 (see Note 5 to the
financial statements).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital was a deficit of ($125,700) at March 31, 1997 as compared
to working capital of $646,375 at March 31, 1996 or a decrease of
10
<PAGE>
$772,075. The Company's cash resources at March 31, 1997 were minimal and
the Company has an outstanding demand loan due to Ballard Medical
Products of $134,142. Such loan is secured by substantially all of the
Company's assets.
The Company had, at March 31, 1997, no commitments for any other credit
facilities such as revolving loans or lines of credit that could provide
additional working capital.
