                          NORLAND MEDICAL SYSTEMS, INC.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Norland Medical Systems, Inc.
(the "Company") presented herein, have been prepared pursuant to the rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do
not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1996, which were audited by Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P., and included
in the Company's Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
on March 31, 1997. The figures in these statements have been restated to reflect
the 3 for 2 stock split which was effective June 14, 1996.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1997 and the condensed
consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the three and six months then ended are unaudited but, in the opinion
of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim
periods.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal
year ending December 31, 1997.

(2) INVENTORIES

As of June 30, 1997, inventories consist of the following:

             Raw materials, product kits
               spare parts and sub-assemblies                $   612,825
             Work in progress                                     33,962
             Rental systems, net of accumulated
               amortization of $26,840                           195,844
             Finished goods                                    1,205,827

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, continued:

(2) INVENTORIES, continued:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is determined
principally by the first-in, first-out method.

Systems used in the Company's short-term rental program are carried in inventory
at cost less amortization expense calculated on a straight-line basis over
thirty-six months.

(3) DEMONSTRATION SYSTEMS INVENTORY

The Company maintains an inventory of demonstration systems used for marketing
and customer service purposes. Such systems are carried at the lower of cost or
net realizable value until the time of sale. From time to time, the Company may
judge it desirable for marketing purposes to provide a device to a prominent
scientist or research institution specializing in the study of bone disease. In
such cases, the Company will carry the device in demonstration systems inventory
at cost less amortization expense calculated on a straight-line basis over
thirty-six months.

As of June 30, 1997, demonstration systems inventories consist of the following:

      Demonstration systems inventory                     $ 1,330,718
      Less accumulated amortization                          (119,051)
                                                          -----------

                                                          ===========

(4) ACQUISITION OF DOVE MEDICAL SYSTEMS

On April 2, 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Dove
Medical Systems (Dove) and a certain patent and other intangible assets owned by
the Dove majority shareholder and certain other investors. The Company paid
consideration of $6,911,529, consisting of $3,600,000 in cash and 161,538 shares
of the Company Common Stock valued at $3,311,529. The acquisition has been
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and, accordingly, the
purchase price has been allocated to the assets purchased and the liabilities
assumed based on the fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase
price over the fair values of the net assets was $3,308,011 and has been
recorded as goodwill. The goodwill and other intangible assets are being
amortized using the straight-line method over twenty years. The patent is being
amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining patent period which
is ten years as of the date of its acquisition.

(5) ACQUISITION OF NORLAND CORPORATION

On February 26, 1997, the Company signed an agreement to acquire all of the
issued and outstanding stock of Norland Corporation for $17.5 million with a
possible additional purchase price of up to $2.5 million based on the level of
the Company's 1997 revenues. For each full $1,000,000 of 1997 revenues above
$32,000,000, the purchase price will be increased by


                                      - 8 -
<PAGE>

$312,500 (up to the maximum increase of $2.5 million). The $17.5 million will be
payable at closing as follows: $1,250,000 in cash and a $16,250,000 Purchase
Note which will bear interest at the rate of 7% per annum. A $1,250,000 portion
of the principal will be payable six months after closing, and the remaining
principal will be due and payable on the fifth anniversary of the closing. The
Company may prepay the Purchase Note at any time. The amount of any additional
purchase price will be determined following the completion of the audit of the
Company's financial statements for the year ending December 31, 1997. This
amount will be paid by an Additional Note which will bear interest at 7% per
annum and which will be due five years after the closing. The transaction is
subject to approval by the Company's stockholders at its 1997 Annual Meeting.

(6) NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

Primary income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the average
shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the
period. Common stock equivalents are stock options which have been included
using the treasury stock method only when their effect is dilutive.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS 128), which
is effective for the Company's year ending December 31, 1997. The Company does
not expect a material impact on its net income per share resulting from the
implementation of this Statement.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the
related Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report. The following
discussion contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and
uncertainties, some of which are described in the Introduction to the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. Such
Introduction is incorporated herein by reference. The Company's actual results
could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements as a result of certain factors.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $235,508 (3.4%) to
$7,184,624 from $6,949,116 for the comparable period of 1996. Revenue for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 increased $963,503 (7.9%) to $13,130,909 from
$12,167,406 for the comparable period in 1996. The increases were largely a
result of increases in sales in the United States, Europe and Latin America,
offset by a decrease in sales to the Pacific Rim and to Japan in particular.
First quarter 1997 sales by Dove (which was acquired by the Company on April 2,
1996) contributed to the increase in sales for the six months ended June 30,
1997. Sales in Japan declined due in part to increased competition, reductions
in reimbursement for certain densitometry tests in Japan and the effects of
operational difficulties experienced with pDEXA units during part of 1996. The
Company believes that these operational difficulties have been addressed. Sales
in the United States and Japan represented 69.8% and 2.0%, respectively, of
total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 31.7% and 43.1%
respectively, of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1996. Sales
in the United States and Japan represented 74.0% and 1.8%, respectively, of
total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1997, and 36.8% and 40.0%,
respectively, of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Sales of
complete bone densitometry systems represented 91.1% and 94.1% of total revenue
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and 91.6% and
93.6% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Sales of parts and services and rental income comprised the
balance of revenues for such periods. Revenues have been affected by the
reduction in the Medicare reimbursement rate for peripheral bone densitometry
tests announced in November 1996. The mix of products sold has changed in that
the majority of the Company's revenues are now derived from sales of larger
Eclipse and XR36 systems that can scan the hip and spine and for which the
Medicare reimbursement rate was not significantly decreased, as compared to the
pDEXA system that performs peripheral bone densitometry tests. Revenues and the
mix of products sold are expected to continue to be influenced by the degree of
difference in Medicare reimbursement rate levels for peripheral and larger
systems. They will also be influenced by the Company's ability to bring to the
market lower cost peripheral systems that can be operated more profitably by end
users at lower reimbursement levels. The Health Care Financing Administration
(HCFA) recently published proposed changes to the Medicare reimbursement rates
that would increase the reimbursement rate for peripheral systems and reduce the
reimbursement rate for the larger systems. No new rates will be adopted until
after the comment period on the proposed changes.


                                     - 10 -

Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 56.3% and 63.0% for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively, resulting in a gross margin of
43.7% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to 37.0% for the
comparable period of 1996. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 56.6%
and 64.1% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively,
resulting in a gross margin of 43.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1997
compared to 35.9% for the comparable period of 1996. The increase in gross
margin is primarily attributed to the impact of price reductions under the
Distribution Agreement with Norland Corporation and Stratec Medizintechnik GmbH
which became effective during the fourth quarter of 1996.

Sales and marketing expense increased $610,433 (69.1%) to $1,493,605 for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 from $883,172 for the three months ended June
30, 1996, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 20.8% from 12.7%. Sales
and marketing expense increased $1,221,827 (83.8%) to $2,680,347 for the six
month period ended June 30, 1997 from $1,458,520 for the six months ended June
30, 1996, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 20.4% from 12.0%. The
increases were primarily due to increased expenses of new sales and marketing
personnel, the cost of expanded marketing efforts, and increased expenses
related to customer service.

General and administrative expense increased $100,546 (16.9%) to $694,602 for
the three months ended June 30, 1997 from $594,056 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996 and increased as a percentage of revenue to 9.7% from 8.6%.
General and administrative expense increased $509,297 (56.6%) to $1,409,069 for
the six month period ended June 30, 1997 from $899,772 for the six months ended
June 30, 1996, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 10.7% from 7.4%.
These increases were primarily due to expenses of new personnel and increased
expenses of existing personnel, other expenses attributed to increased levels of
business (including, in the quarter ended June 30, 1997, increased provision for
doubtful accounts receivable), and the inclusion of Dove's operations for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997.

Other income in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
consisted primarily of interest earned on the proceeds of the Company's initial
public offering and on other cash and loan balances, reduced by other expenses
consisting primarily of bank charges and other fees related to bank transfers.
The decrease in other income in the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1997 as compared to June 30, 1996 reflects reduced interest income resulting
from utilization of such offering proceeds.

The provision for taxes for the three months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by
$80,458 (15.7%) to $432,000 from $512,458 for the three months ended June 30,
1996. The provision for taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased
by $229,458 (23.3%) to $756,000 from $985,458 for the six months ended June 30,
1996. The Company has provided for income taxes at its current effective tax
rate of 40.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. The
decrease in the provision for taxes was entirely due to the relative change in
income before taxes.

The Company had net income of $631,658 for the three months ended June 30, 1997
compared to net income of $750,057 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, a
decrease of $118,399

(15.8%). The Company had net income of $1,104,756 for the six months ended June
30, 1997 compared to net income of $1,441,313 for the six months ended June 30,
1996, a decrease of $336,557 (23.4%). The decrease was due primarily to the
factors discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 1996, the Company had cash of $8,133,468 and a $1,949,039 U.S.
Treasury bill. The Treasury bill was converted to cash during the quarter ended
June 30, 1997. At June 30, 1997, the Company had cash of $5,133,254. The
decrease in cash was primarily the result of increased accounts receivable,
decreased accounts payable, increased pDEXA and OsteoAnalyzer inventories, and
increased officer loans, and to a lesser extent cash loaned to Norland
Corporation under the product development loan.

The Company's accounts receivable increased 24.8% to $11,455,816 at June 30,
1997 from $9,182,488 at December 31, 1996 which reflects both higher sales
volume and less prompt payment by the Company's customers. At June 30, 1997, the
two largest balances, 18.8% and 9.6% of total outstanding trade receivables,
were owed by U. S. distributors.

Property and equipment as of June 30, 1997 consisted of computer and telephone
equipment, a management information system, office furniture and improvements to
leased facilities. At the present time, no significant expenditures for
additional equipment or systems are planned for 1997.

Should the proposed acquisition of Norland Corporation be approved by the
Company's stockholders, the Company's cash requirements with respect to the
transaction will consist of a $1,250,000 cash payment at close, a second
$1,250,000 cash payment six months thereafter, plus interest payments on the
Purchase Note and the Additional Note which will range from approximately
$250,000 to $300,000 per quarter, depending upon the final amount of the
purchase price. Following the acquisition, the Company will receive the entire
margin on systems manufactured by Norland Corporation and will become
responsible for financing manufacturing and research and development on the
Norland Corporation product line. Any sales growth of the OsteoAnalyzer product
line will also be financed by the Company.

The Company believes that its current cash position, together with cash flow
from operations, will be adequate to fund the Company's operations, including
the proposed acquisition of Norland Corporation, for at least the next twelve
months. However, the nature of the Company's business is such that it is subject
to changes in technology, government approval and regulation, and changes in
third-party reimbursement in the United States and numerous foreign markets.
Significant changes in one or more of these factors in a major market for the
Company's products could significantly affect the Company's ability to meet its
cash needs through internal sources. Moreover, the Company will also continue to
consider the possibility of obtaining funds from other sources, including bank
credit arrangements and stock offerings.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

        A purported shareholder's class action and derivative complaint entitled
        Irwin J. Miller v. Reynald G. Bonmati et. al. Defendants, and Norland
        Medical Systems, Inc., Nominal Defendant (Civil Action No. 15849), was
        filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, New Castle
        County, on August 1, 1997, against four members of the Company's Board
        of Directors (the "Individual Defendants"), Norland Medical Systems B.V.
        ("NMS BV"), and the Company. The action relates to the proposed 
        acquisition (the "Acquisition") by the Company from NMS BV of all the
        outstanding stock of Norland Corporation. The Acquisition is subject to
        the approval of the Company's stockholders at a stockholders' meeting
        scheduled for August 20, 1997. The complaint alleges that the Individual
        Defendants have breached their fiduciary duties of loyalty, candor and
        care in connection with the pending Acquisition, and that the Company's
        proxy statement relating to the stockholders' meeting does not contain
        full and fair disclosure with respect to the Acquisition. Plaintiff
        seeks, among other things: to enjoin the consummation of the
        Acquisition; to require that the Company make additional disclosures to
        its stockholders in connection with the Acquisition; damages in
        unspecified amounts; and costs, disbursements and counsel and expert
        fees.

        The Company has reached an agreement in principal to settle this action.
        The Settlement will be subject to approval by the Court of Chancery. The
        plaintiff has withdrawn his application for a perliminary injunction
        against the Acquisition.
