 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
 OPERATIONS

 OVERVIEW

 Optical Sensors Incorporated (the Company or OSI) is a development stage
 enterprise, engaged in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing and
 selling of point-of-care arterial blood gas (ABG) monitoring systems. The
 Company's product, the SensiCath( R) system, is a patient-attached, on-demand,
 ABG monitoring system, consisting of a disposable fiber optic sensor assembly
 developed by the Company, called the SensiCath Sensor, and a module developed
 by Marquette Electronics, Inc. (Marquette), called the OnlineABG Module, that
 plugs into Marquette's critical care bedside monitors. The Company completed
 product development activities in June 1995 and received 510(k) clearance to
 market the SensiCath system from the FDA in January 1996. In April 1996,
 Marquette completed development of the OnlineABG Module and released the module
 from its research and development department to manufacturing for commercial
 production and sale. Both companies began marketing the SensiCath system in May
 1996.

 Shortly after Marquette announced that the OnlineABG Module would be available
 for use with its new "Solar" patient monitoring system and its existing
 installed base of "Tramscope" monitoring systems, Marquette experienced two
 delays. The first delay involved completion of the Solar software necessary to
 accommodate several new Marquette products and performance features, including
 the OnlineABG Module and the SensiCath system. The second delay involved the
 scale-up of commercial production of the OnlineABG Module. These software
 development and module production delays have significantly limited the
 Company's ability to generate sales of the SensiCath Sensor in the near-term.
 Marquette completed production scale-up of the OnlineABG Module in the third
 quarter of 1996. The Solar software was released on September 23, 1996 for beta
 testing. While Marquette initially expected to complete beta testing by mid
 October 1996, several deficiencies were found requiring modifications to the
 software prior to full commercial release, which is now projected by Marquette
 to occur by the end of November 1996. Due to the delays in release of the Solar
 software, OSI has implemented a marketing program involving the purchase by OSI
 of OnlineABG monitors and the short-term rental of portable Solar monitors,
 which OSI will provide to its customers under various marketing and rental
 programs.

 In July 1996, OSI began testing prototypes of a "Stand-Alone Critical-Blood-
 Analyte Monitor" (OpticalCAM(TM) Monitor). The OpticalCAM Monitor will be
 supplied by a third party and sold to hospitals for use where Marquette patient
 monitoring systems are not available. OSI completed all testing and filed a
 510(k) application with the FDA in the third quarter of 1996. In addition to
 being able to operate in a stand alone mode, the monitor is also able to
 communicate with a primary bedside monitor through a standard or customized
 communication port. Currently, the OpticalCAM monitor is configured to
 communicate with Hewlett-Packard and SpaceLabs patient monitoring systems. When
 released for commercial sale, the OpticalCAM Monitor, used with Hewlett-Packard
 and SpaceLabs patient monitoring systems, and the OnlineABG Module, used with
 the Marquette patient monitoring system, gives OSI access to over 80% of the
 monitored critical care beds in the United States. A prototype of the
 OpticalCAM monitor was recently displayed at several major medical conferences.

 During the second quarter of 1996, the Company completed the acquisition of
 ownership of all of the technology in the SensiCath system, pursuant to a
 previously disclosed agreement with Marquette. Marquette transferred the
 documentation for the technology related to the SensiCath system, and the
 Company paid Marquette $500,000. The Company has control of all of the
 SensiCath technology, subject to certain rights retained by Marquette to use
 the technology that it developed in non-competing

                                       6
<PAGE>
 
products it manufactures. The balance of $1,000,000 owed under the agreement is
payable in two installments of $500,000 each conditioned upon Marquette selling
certain minimum quantities of OnlineABG Modules. All payments made or to be made
under this agreement have or will be recorded as research and development
expenses.

Since inception, the Company has experienced significant operating losses, and,
as of September 30, 1996, had an accumulated deficit of $32.8 million. The
Company anticipates that its operating losses will continue for the foreseeable
future because it plans to expend substantial resources in funding sales and
marketing activities, commercial manufacturing and research and development. The
Company expects that research and development expenses will remain at relatively
high levels for the foreseeable future due to scheduled payments of $1,000,000
to Marquette, which are expected to be made in late 1996 or early 1997, and
planned development of new products and alternative cost saving configurations
of its existing product. Except for the historical information contained herein,
the disclosures in this report are forward looking statements which could be
affected by certain risks and uncertainties, including: market acceptance of the
SensiCath system; the ability of the Company and Marquette to effectively ramp-
up commercial production of the SensiCath Sensor and the OnlineABG Module,
respectively; the completion by Marquette of software for its Solar system;
generating sales of the SensiCath system to Marquette's installed base of
Tramscope systems; successful development and introduction of the OpticalCAM
monitor and additional new configurations of and enhancements to the SensiCath
system or other products; actions relating to regulatory matters and health care
cost reimbursement; and results of additional clinical marketing studies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company had no sales in 1995. Net sales for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 1996 were $51,330 and $98,251, respectively. Approximately
86% of sales have been made to Marquette for Solar system demonstration purposes
and for Marquette clinical marketing studies, and approximately 14% of sales
have been commercial sales to customers, which began in the third quarter of
1996.

Costs of products sold to date are related primarily to the establishment of
commercial manufacturing operations and manufacturing of sensors for clinical
studies and other testing purposes. Costs of products sold in the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1996 were $335,663 and $991,913, respectively.
Comparable expenses incurred in the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 1995 were $249,529 and $707,620, respectively. In 1995, production costs
were recorded as research and development expenses because the Company had no
sales in that period. The increase in 1996 is the result of increased activities
to scale-up manufacturing to meet anticipated future sales demand.

Research and development expenses increased $307,055, or 20%, and $693,361, or
19%, in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 from the same
periods in the prior year (after adjusting for reclassifications to cost of
products sold as described above). The increase in 1996 is primarily
attributable to the $500,000 Marquette payment described above, and development
expenses incurred for the Company's OpticalCAM Monitor.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,152,491 and $1,707,215, for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively and
$1,073,877 and $1,707,215 for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 1995, respectively. Selling, general and administrative

                                       7

expenses included amortization of deferred compensation expenses for options
granted in 1995. Amortization in the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1996 was $155,000 and $467,000 respectively. Comparable
amortization in 1995 was $805,000, all of which was recognized in the third
quarter of 1995. Selling, general and administrative expenses (after adjusting
for compensation expenses described above) increased $731,083 or 273%, and
$1,393,350 or 155%, in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996
from the same periods in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable
to expansion of the Company's sales and marketing staff, product positioning and
market research activities. During 1996, the Company added six sales and
marketing professionals for a current total of nine. Administrative expenses
have not changed materially from 1995.

Interest income increased $404,906 and $1,052,279 in the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The increases in both periods is
due to interest earned on the proceeds from the Company's initial public
offering, which was completed in the first quarter of 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In February 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering of 2,500,000
shares of common stock. In March 1996, the underwriter exercised its over
allotment option to purchase an additional 375,000 shares of common stock. The
net proceeds to the Company from the public offering was approximately
$33,953,000. The Company's common stock is quoted on NASDAQ under the symbol
"OPSI".

The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $32,877,877 and $5,394,721 at
September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. The company incurred
cash expenditures of $6,437,714 for operations and $80,227 for capital
expenditures in the nine month period ended September 30, 1996.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company leased $510,000 and
purchased $60,000 of tooling and equipment, primarily for commercial launch of
the Company's products and for research and development purposes. As of
September 30, 1996, the Company did not have any commitments for material
capital equipment acquisitions. However, in the fourth quarter of 1996, the
Company plans to purchase an additional $300,000 of capital equipment,
consisting primarily of manufacturing tooling. In addition, in anticipation of
receiving clearance to market the OpticalCAM monitor from the FDA, the Company
plans to invest approximately $1.5 million over the next three to six months in
OpticalCAM and related inventory items.

With the proceeds of the initial public offering, the Company believes that
sufficient liquidity is available to satisfy its working capital needs at least
through 1997.
