                          Notes to Financial Statements


The company has filed a restated annual form 10K-SB and accordingly, has
restated the financial results for the quarter ended 12/31/96 on this 10QSB. The
prior period Financial Statements have been restated to reflect the under
reporting of royalty receivables from a licensee. The restatement affected
royalty revenues and as a result the restatement was significant enough to
classify the company as a personal holding company requiring a significant tax
accrual at year-end, a portion of which was also restated in this quarter.

On August 14, 1997 the Company entered into an agreement with CFO, a consulting
firm whereby the firm will help create a business plan and assist the Company to
get listed on a regional stock exchange. Hydromer is obligated for payment of a
$2,500 monthly fee to the firm, cancelable anytime. Additionally, upon certain
criteria being met, the firm is entitled to 150,000 warrants of the Company's
common stock at an agreed upon price. Mr. Brice is a partner in the firm.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting of only normal adjustments) necessary for a
fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.

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

Results of Operations

Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 were $656,399, up 38% from the
same period last year. For the 6 months ended December 31, 1997, revenues were
up 16% to $1,162,505 over the same period last year. This increase in revenues
is attributable to increased use of the Company's technology through license
agreements with its clients. This increase in usage equates to increased royalty
income which was up 55% for the quarter and 31% for the six months ended
December 31, 1997.

Gross profit for the quarter was $611,202 vs. $429,115 for the same period last
year or an increase of 42% and $1,058,494 for the 6 months ended December 31,
1997 vs. $886,509 for the same period last year or an increase of 19%. This
increase is again related to the increase in royalties, options and license fees
from the use of the Company's technologies in over 15 licensing agreements.

Operating Costs (SG&A and Research and Development) were $404,646 for the
quarter, up $56,750 or 16% over the same period last year and $755,573 for the 6
month period, up $109.321 or 17% over last year. This increase in costs is
attributable to the Company's expanding services to its clients. Employee costs,
especially R&D, are up to support the new technologies being developed and
provide improved customer services to clients. Lab costs are up over last year
to react to the expanding needs for samples and prototypes as more clients are
aware of the company's products and services. Finally, new costs associated with
the Company's expansion into coating services are up over last year.

Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 was $176,127, up 113% over
the same period last year. Earnings per share were $0.04 for the quarter as
compared to $0.02 for the same period last year. For the six months ended
December 31, 1997, the company reported earnings of $239,059 or $0.06 per common
share, up 16% over the same period last year for both earnings and EPS.
