                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.   General

     The consolidated condensed financial statements as of March 31, 1997 and
     for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 are unaudited. In the
     opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
     accruals, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial
     position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented
     have been included. Results for interim periods are not necessarily
     indicative of results that may be expected for the full fiscal year.

     These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in
     conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
     included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Healthdyne Technologies, Inc.
     (the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 1996.

2.   Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

     Primary earnings per common share and common share equivalent are based on
     the weighted average number of shares outstanding and common share
     equivalents derived from dilutive stock options. Fully diluted earnings per
     share are not significantly different from primary earnings per share.

3.   Credit Agreement

     In March 1997, the Company entered into an amendment to its revolving
     credit and term loan agreement (the "Credit Agreement") which extended the
     expiration date of the term loan portion to June 1999. Balances under the
     Credit Agreement now will all be due at that time.

4.   Costs Associated With an Unsolicited Offer to Acquire the Company

     On January 2, 1997, A. Malachi Mixon, III, Chairman and Chief Executive
     Officer of Invacare Corporation ("Invacare"), sent a letter to Craig B.
     Reynolds, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, indicating
     Invacare's interest in a combination with the Company and proposing to
     acquire the Company in a negotiated merger transaction in which
     shareholders of the Company would receive $12.50 in cash for each share of
     the Company's Common Stock (the "Invacare Preliminary Proposal"). On
     January 10, 1997, Invacare issued a press release disclosing the
     unsolicited Invacare Preliminary Proposal and the Company issued a press
     release announcing that its Board would consider the Invacare Preliminary
     Proposal in due course.

     On January 15, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors met to discuss the
     Invacare Preliminary Proposal and appointed Cowen & Company ("Cowen"), as
     financial advisor and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP as legal
     advisor to the Board of Directors. On January 23, 1997, the Board of
     Directors of the Company met again to review the Company's financial
     performance and the Invacare Preliminary Proposal. The Board of Directors
     determined that the sale of the Company was not in the best interests of
     its shareholders at such time and issued a press release on January 24,
     1997, rejecting the Invacare Preliminary Proposal.

     On January 27, 1997, Invacare commenced an unsolicited tender offer to
     purchase all of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock at $13.00
     per share in cash (the "Invacare Initial Offer Price"), upon certain terms
     and subject to certain conditions (the "Invacare Initial Offer"), to be
     followed by a second-step merger in which holders of shares not validly
     tendered would receive the 







                                       7
<PAGE>   8

     same per share price as in the Invacare Initial Offer. The Invacare Initial
     Offer also disclosed that Invacare owned 600,000 shares (approximately
     4.9%) of the Company's Common Stock.

     On January 30, 1997, the Board of Directors reviewed the Invacare Initial
     Offer and unanimously concluded that it was grossly inadequate and not in
     the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In particular, the
     Board of Directors determined that the Company's current strategic plan
     offered the potential for greater benefits for the Company's shareholders
     than the Invacare Initial Offer, based on, among other things, greater
     opportunities for business expansion, revenue and earnings growth, and the
     introduction of new products and product lines into the health care market.
     The Board unanimously recommended that shareholders reject the Invacare
     Initial Offer and not tender any of their shares.

     On February 25, 1997, the Invacare Initial Offer, which had been scheduled
     to expire on February 24, 1997, was extended to March 24, 1997. On March
     20, 1997, the Company received Invacare's notice to the Company announcing
     its intention to nominate candidates for election to the Company's Board
     and to make certain shareholder proposals at the Annual Meeting. On March
     24, 1997, Invacare again extended the Invacare Initial Offer to April 7,
     1997.

     On March 31, 1997, Invacare revised the Invacare Initial Offer by
     announcing that it would increase the price in its tender offer from $13.00
     per share to $13.50 per share (together, with the Invacare Initial Offer,
     the "Invacare Offer"). On such date, Invacare also announced another
     extension of the Invacare Initial Offer, this time until April 28, 1997.

     On April 2, 1997, the Company issued a press release announcing that the
     Board of Directors voted unanimously to reject the Invacare Offer as
     grossly inadequate and to recommend that shareholders of the Company not
     tender any of their shares pursuant to the Invacare Offer. On April 29,
     1997, Invacare again extended the Invacare Offer until May 27, 1997.

     The Company and certain of its Directors are also defendants in a lawsuit
     brought by Invacare, as well as in certain class action lawsuits
     purportedly brought on behalf of Company shareholders. The Company incurred
     $1,300 in expense in the first quarter of 1997, primarily related to costs
     related to the Invacare Offer and defending the litigation (see Part I,
     Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for
     the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996).

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                             (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)

Except for the historical information contained herein, this report contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's
actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors that
could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to,
those discussed in this section, and in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1996, as well as factors discussed or identified
from time to time in the Company's other filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

GENERAL

Healthdyne Technologies' revenues are derived from sales of technologically
advanced medical devices primarily for use in the home and alternate care sites.
These products include diagnostic and therapeutic devices for the evaluation and
treatment of sleep disorders, oxygen delivery systems, noninvasive ventilators,
medication nebulizers, peak flow meters and drug delivery systems for the
treatment of respiratory disorders, and monitors for infants at risk for SIDS,
as well as a limited line of obstetrical care products. The Company markets its
products, both domestically and internationally, through a dedicated sales force
and a network of independent manufacturers' representatives and distributors.

The Company is the subject of an unsolicited hostile tender offer from Invacare
Corporation. The offer, whether or not successful, may have a material adverse
effect on the operation of the Company. Please see Note 4 of Notes to
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements herein.

The Company has announced the planned introduction of numerous new products in
1997 and 1998. These actions are scheduled to be completed on an accelerated
timetable. Timely introduction of products is dependent on several factors,
including but not limited to, timely completion of design and engineering work,
successfully tested prototypes, clinical device testing, clearance or approval
where necessary by the FDA, intellectual property matters and availability of
materials and components from suppliers. There can be no assurance that each of
these products will be introduced, the products will be introduced in accordance
with planned schedules, or that, once introduced, products will be commercially
successful. The anticipated rapid development cycle also may result in higher
than anticipated warranty claims, which also could adversely affect future
financial performance.

The Company competes in a highly competitive environment with numerous
competitors which are financially strong and capable of competing effectively
with the Company in the marketplace. Such competitors may take actions to meet
the Company's new product introductions and other initiatives. Some competitors
may be willing to accept lower margins and to reduce prices to compete with the
Company. As a result, the Company could fail to achieve anticipated sales
increases, to realize anticipated price increases, or otherwise fail to meet its
anticipated results. Any of such circumstances would likely have an adverse
effect on future financial performance, which effect could be material.

The Company's present operations and future prospects may be influenced by
several factors, including developments in the healthcare industry, third-party
reimbursement policies and practices, and changes in regulatory requirements
with respect to approval and sale of medical devices. As a result of the
increasing cost of healthcare in the United States, government and third party
payors are becoming increasingly focused on promoting cost-effective health care
services, and payors, in particular, have become more involved in decisions
regarding diagnosis and treatment to ensure that care is delivered in a
cost-effective manner. As a result of this focus on cost-effective healthcare
delivery, the Company believes that home-based healthcare services and medical
products will continue to provide a viable and cost-effective alternative to
treatment in traditional institutional care settings in many instances.

The Company's success is dependent to a large extent upon the ability of its
customers to obtain adequate reimbursement from third-party payors, such as
government and private insurance programs, for procedures using the Company's
products. For example, Congress passed legislation in December 1995 (which was
vetoed by the President) which would have imposed a plan for balancing the
federal budget over a seven year period. The plan included major reductions in
Medicare and Medicaid expenditures and would have reduced Medicare payment rates
for oxygen by 20% beginning in 1996, gradually rising to 30% by 2002. President
Clinton's budget plan contained similar provisions, as well as





                                       9
<PAGE>   10

competitive bidding for selected items of equipment, which could include oxygen.
Similar proposals could be enacted as part of future budget legislation.
Congress and the White House recently agreed to a budget framework that would
reduce Medicare expenditures by $115 billion over the next five fiscal years.
That framework apparently does not specify any level of reductions or policy
changes for oxygen and oxygen equipment. Those decisions will be made by the
health committees in Congress and ultimately by the entire Congress. Similarly,
the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA") has announced a plan to adjust
Medicare payment amounts for oxygen and oxygen equipment on the grounds that
such amounts are not "inherently reasonable". Before making any such
adjustments, HCFA will need to consider specific economic factors and provide
notice and an opportunity for public comment. While this plan would be
superseded if Congress were to enact final budget legislation, HCFA intends to
issue a proposed rule with potential reductions in oxygen payments in the ranges
contained in the budget legislation. Reductions in the reimbursement rates that
the Company's customers receive for services rendered could have an adverse
impact on the Company. The Company, however, is hopeful that the overall
cost-effective nature of diagnosis and treatment in the home will be recognized
by any new initiatives.

The Company's business also may be affected by changes in government regulation
to which the Company's products are subject or changes in the manner in which
such regulations are enforced or medical devices are approved. Performance
standards in proposed form for monitors for infants at risk for SIDS recently
have been published for comment by the FDA. The Company is unable to predict
whether, or in what form, these performance standards ultimately will be
adopted, but anticipates that it should be able to design and manufacture
products that will comply with any such standards.

A number of businesses within the healthcare industry, including in some
instances customers of the Company, recently have begun to consolidate in order,
among other things, to increase the size, efficiency and purchasing power of the
entities in question, to broaden the number and nature of products and services
offered to consumers or simply to better serve the changing healthcare industry
with its focus upon cost-effective medical care. The Company's two largest home
care dealer customers, both of which were publicly held and had branch locations
throughout the U.S., merged in August 1995. The consolidated entity, which
represents approximately 20% of homecare dealers, together with similar large
national healthcare dealers, have the capability of exerting significant price
pressure on manufacturers. Changing buying patterns may also have a negative
effect on the Company's business. The Company expects that consolidation among
home care dealers is likely to continue; however, the Company cannot predict the
effect of such mergers and consolidations on its business.

The Company acquired HealthScan Products during 1994 and acquired Fiberoptic
Medical Products, Inc. and certain assets of Trent Products Limited during 1996
in an effort to broaden its product offerings and will continue to examine
possible candidates for acquisitions in the future should the opportunity arise.
No assurance, however, can be given that any such acquisitions will be
consummated by the Company or, if consummated, that they will be financially or
operationally successful.

On May 22, 1995, Healthdyne consummated a transaction pursuant to which the
10,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock owned at that time by Healthdyne
were distributed to Healthdyne's shareholders as a tax-free dividend (the
"Spin-off"). In an effort to facilitate the Spin-off, the Board of Directors of
the Company adopted a special stock option plan pursuant to which options to
purchase 1,344 shares of the Company's common stock were granted to holders,
including employees of the Company, of outstanding Healthdyne stock options. The
Company believes the Spin-off has been and will continue to be beneficial to the
Company in that, among other things, it has increased the number of shares of
common stock of the Company available for trading and is expected to permit the
Company to raise capital more economically and with less restrictions than if it
were a subsidiary of Healthdyne.

Although the Company derives a portion of its revenues from foreign customers,
substantially all of these sales have historically been invoiced in U.S. Dollars
and, therefore, the Company has not been exposed to any significant foreign
exchange rate risk. The Company does not expect that a significant portion of
its foreign sales in the future will be invoiced in currencies other than U.S.
Dollars and, therefore, does not anticipate that it will be exposed to a
material amount of exchange rate risk. However, no assurance can be given that
this will be the case.

The following discussion of the Company's financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with financial information herein and
the Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes presented in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996 as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

</TABLE>

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased 30% to $35,671 from
$27,482 in the equivalent period in 1996. This strong increase in revenue is
primarily attributable to sales growth in all of the Company's principal product
lines. Revenues from the Company's ventilation product line grew from
approximately $1,800 in the first quarter of 1996 to approximately $6,200 in the
first three months of 1997, due to the outstanding market acceptance received by
Quantum(TM), the Company's noninvasive ventilator. Revenues from the respiratory
therapy product line grew 13% in the first quarter of 1997 as compared to the
first quarter of 1996, due primarily to the 54% increase in revenue recorded by
the Company's asthma management product line. The sleep disorders product line
grew 6% from the first quarter of 1996 due principally to the continued growth
of the Tranquility(R) sleep therapy system. Domestically, sleep therapy product
sales increased 33% over the similar period in 1996, offset somewhat by lower
international sales of these products. The Company believes that this
international sales decline was primarily attributable to customer decisions to
delay purchase of these products in anticipation of new products to be released,
particularly the Company's new Tranquility(R) Bilevel product. The
Tranquility(R) Bilevel was introduced internationally late in the first quarter
of 1997, but did not contribute significantly to revenue and was approved by the
FDA for U.S. distribution in April 1997. Excluding the effect of the acquisition
of Fiberoptic Medical Products, Inc. in June, 1996, revenues from the infant
management product line increased 22% in the three months ended March 31, 1997
over the year-earlier period, primarily due to the achievement of greater market
share.

In the first quarter of 1997 the Company entered into an agreement with
Allegiance Healthcare for distribution of certain of the Company's asthma
management products. This agreement is part of the Company's ongoing efforts to
increase its distribution strength in large national accounts; however, there
can be no assurance that the agreement will be successful in improving the
Company's position with such accounts.

The Company's gross profit margins decreased approximately 3 percentage points
to 39% during the three months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the three
months ended March 31, 1996 primarily due to lower average selling prices on
many of the Company's principal products; however, gross profit margin improved
over one percentage point from the fourth quarter of 1996. This increase was
primarily due to a slightly improved product mix and lower warranty expense in
the first quarter of 1997.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased slightly as a percentage of
revenues in the first quarter of 1997 as compared to the first quarter of 1996
due primarily to the operating efficiencies generated as a result of accelerated
revenue growth.

Research and development expenses increased to $1,873 in the first quarter of
1997 from $1,350 in the year-earlier period, primarily due to the addition of
engineering staff and engineering costs relating principally to the development
and introduction of new products. As a percentage of revenues, these expenses
remained relatively constant. In




                                       11

the first quarter of 1997, the Company successfully introduced its new spacer
device, the OptiChamber(TM) and successfully introduced internationally its new
Tranquility(R) Bilevel product. There are several existing competing products
for both the Company's new asthma spacer device and the new bilevel device.
While the Company is hopeful that the features and pricing of these devices will
allow rapid market acceptance, there can be no assurances that these products
will gain market acceptance or, if attained, over what period of time.

A non-operating charge of $1,300 for expenses associated with the Invacare
hostile tender offer and related litigation was recorded in the three months
ended March 31, 1997.

Interest expense remained relatively constant in the three months ended March
31, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.

The effective income tax rate remained relatively constant in the first quarter
of both 1997 and 1996.

The Company had deferred tax assets of $1,660 at March 31, 1997, which resulted
from allowances for uncollectible accounts and accruals and reserves recorded
for financial statement purposes but not yet deducted for income tax purposes.
Management believes such deferred tax assets will be recoverable through reduced
income taxes payable in future periods.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had working capital of approximately $36,700 as of March 31, 1997
and the current ratio was 2.4 to 1.0.

Cash flow provided by operations increased to $3,531 in the three months ended
March 31, 1997, from $2,997 in the three months ended March 31, 1996. Cash used
in investing activities increased to $2,727 in the three months ended March 31,
1997 from $900 in the same period in 1996, due primarily to increased capital
expenditures related to manufacturing tooling for new product introductions and
cost reductions on existing products.

The Company entered into a Secured Revolving Credit Agreement in June 1993 (the
"Credit Agreement") with two commercial banks and in December 1994 entered into
an amendment to the Credit Agreement which increased the total commitment from
$15,000 to $25,000. During the last half of 1995, the Credit Agreement was
amended to increase the total commitment to $35,000 and was further amended in
June 1996 to add a term loan commitment of $15,000. In March 1997, the Credit
Agreement was amended again to extend the expiration date of the term loan to
June 1999. Both the revolving credit facility and the term loan now expire and
are payable in full in June 1999. This facility may be used for general
corporate purposes and is secured by all accounts receivable, inventory, deposit
accounts and all intangible assets of the Company and contains various
covenants, including but not limited to, net worth and financial ratio
requirements. As of March 31, 1997, the Company had outstanding borrowings of
$28,500 under its Credit Agreement at interest rates ranging from 7.1% to 8.8%.

The Company believes that its existing cash balances, together with internally
generated funds and remaining amounts available under its Credit Agreement, will
be sufficient to meet the Company's operating capital requirements for at least
the next twelve months. Additional indebtedness and/or equity, in all
likelihood, would be needed to finance possible acquisitions should the Company
decide to pursue such transactions in the future.

As of March 31, 1997, the Company had outstanding commitments for capital
expenditures of approximately $600 relating primarily to manufacturing tooling.

                                                             Due: June 30, 1999


     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, HEALTHDYNE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (the

     The Company further promises to pay to the order of the Bank interest on

     This Note is secured pursuant to certain Security Documents (as such term
is defined in the Credit Agreement), to which reference is made for a
description of the collateral provided thereby and the rights of the Bank and
the Company in respect of such collateral.

     This Note is issued as a replacement and substitution for the Term Note,
dated June 28, 1996, in the original principal amount of $____________,
executed by the Company and payable to the order of the Bank (the "Original
Note").  Nothing contained herein shall be construed to (i) deem paid any
amount of principal or interest on the Original Note, or (ii) release, cancel,
terminate or otherwise impair all of any part of any lien or security interest
granted for the benefit of the Bank as collateral security for the obligations
