OVERVIEW

Applied Biometrics, Inc. ("Applied Biometrics" or the "Company") is a
development stage medical device company in advanced cardio-vascular and
hemodynamic diagnostic and monitoring systems.

In July 2000, the Company announced due to significant technical issues facing
the Company's Basis (TM) Cardiac Output Monitoring System (the "Basis System" or
the "System") that commercialization of the System was unlikely in the near
term.

The Company determined that upon analysis of a number of recent procedures with
its Basis System, two significant technical issues were identified. The first
issue is the System's ability to work successfully in the event of considerable
variability or turbulence in a patient's blood flow. As the System's central
purpose is to sense and interpret blood flow, the Company has been working
steadily throughout the development process to resolve a number of issues
relating to blood flow dynamics. Previously, the Company believed that it had
made sufficient progress with the System's signal processing to satisfy its
quality and performance objectives.

The second issue involves errors arising from the positioning of the
RealFlow(TM) probe during and after the surgical procedure. Degradation of the
probe's attachment or position on the patient's aorta will introduce data errors
into the System and result in inaccurate cardiac output. The Company has
determined that further investigation is warranted to resolve this issue and may
require design changes to the probe.

Both of these problems impact the System's performance, reliability and
ultimately, market potential. The Company's initial investigation has concluded
that both of these issues require significantly more research and design time.
The Company believes that the ultimate commercialization of the Basis System is
beyond the Company's current financial resources. Accordingly, the Company has
taken steps to reduce its operating costs and focus the majority of its
resources and efforts on pursuing strategic and financing alternatives. As of
the date of this report, this process is still underway.

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


RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 WITH THE
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $100,000 in the second
quarter, from $313,000 during the 1999 period, to $213,000 during the 2000
period. The difference between periods is primarily due to expenses in the 1999
period relating to employee severance cost, hiring costs, increased legal
activity and corporate logo and image costs.

Research and development expenses increased $337,000, from $349,000 in 1999, to
$685,000 in 2000. $210,000 of the increase is due to the write-off of monitor
and probe component inventory, consistent with the determination that near-term
commercialization of the Company's Basis System is unlikely. The Company also
incurred $50,000 of consulting costs in the current quarter related to the
analysis of its probe design related to a mechanical weakness. The balance of
the quarter-to-quarter increase is due to increased costs for engineering,
operations and quality assurance personnel over the prior year three-month
period.

As discussed above, the Company is taking steps to reduce its operating costs as
it pursues strategic and financing alternatives. In the short-term, costs will
increase as the Company incurs expenses related to the termination of its
workforce and settles other operating contracts, commitments and obligations.
This forward-looking statement will be influenced primarily by the Company's
estimate of the costs to settle its outstanding operating commitments and
obligations.

Other income, primarily interest income, increased $7,000 from $22,000 in the
1999 quarter to $29,000 in the 2000 quarter. The increase is due to higher
average investment balances in the 2000 quarter than in the 1999 quarter. The
2000 first quarter net loss was $869,000, or $0.15 per share, compared to a net
loss of $640,000, or $0.14 per share in 1999.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 WITH THE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $180,000 in the first
six-months, from $491,000 during the 1999 period, to $671,000 during the 2000
period. The Company incurred a non-cash compensation charge of $153,000 during
the current period related to stock granted to the Company's three non-employee
directors for prior and current board service. Non-employee directors of the
Company serve without cash compensation.

Research and development expenses increased $652,000, from $555,000 in 1999, to
$1,207,000 in 2000, due to increased spending on engineering, operations and
quality assurance personnel, animal testing, manufacturing pilot costs and
product evaluations. The Company hired a significant number of additional
personnel during the second half of 1999 in order to complete development, begin
manufacturing and conduct market product evaluations on the Basis System. As
discussed above, the Company wrote-off $210,000 of its monitor and probe
component inventory in the current period.

Other income, primarily interest income, increased $4,000 from $46,000 in the
1999 six-month period to $50,000 in the 2000 period. The 2000 six-month net loss
was $1,828,000, or $0.34 per share, compared to a net loss of $1,000,000, or
$0.23 per share in 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents were $2,022,000 at June 30, 2000 as compared to
$1,910,000 of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1999, an increase of
$112,000. Operating activities during the period used cash of

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$1,416,000, consisting primarily of the net loss for the six-month period offset
by approximately $304,000 of non-cash expenses and a decrease in inventory and
accounts payable. Investing activities used $60,000 for the purchase of
equipment and legal costs related to the preparation of patent applications.
Financing activities provided $1,588,000 of cash primarily from two private
equity financings in April, 2000.

The Company has determined that the current technical issues facing its sole
product, the Basis System, are beyond its current financial resources. The
Company is taking steps to reduce its operating costs and focus its remaining
resources on investigating strategic and financing alternatives, including
locating another party with greater resources to further development of its core
technology and maximize its commercial potential.

ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During April 2000, the Company issued an aggregate of 525,000 units in two
private placement financings, with each unit consisting of one share of the
Company's common stock, $.01 par value, and one five-year warrant to purchase a
share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.625. The units were sold at a
price of $3.25 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds of $1,706,250 and net
proceeds of approximately $1,500,000 after deducting agent's commissions of
$170,625 and other estimated expenses. Miller Johnson & Kuehn, Inc. of
Minneapolis, Minnesota acted as the Company's agent in the private placement.

The units were offered and sold solely to "accredited investors" as defined in
Rule 501(a) and were issued without registration in reliance on Regulation D and
Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In relying upon these
exemptions the Company made certain inquiries and received certain assurances to
establish that the exemptions were available for the issuance. In particular,
the Company confirmed that: (i) the offers of sales and sales were made without
general solicitation; (ii) each investor made representations that he or she was
"accredited," was sophisticated in relation to the investment, and had reviewed
certain information made available by the Company; (iii) each purchaser gave
assurance of investment intent and the certificates for the shares and the
warrants bear an appropriate legend restricting transfer; and (iv) offers and
sales were made to a limited number of persons.

In consideration of its services in connection with the April 2000 private
placements, the Company also issued the agent five-year warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 52,500 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $3.25 per
share.

In consideration of a $425,000 capital lease commitment by Dexxon Capital
Corporation in April 2000, the Company issued a five-year warrant to Dexxon to
purchase up to 13,500 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $3.00
per share, with the exact number of shares issuable under the warrant determined
by the Company's aggregate borrowings under the capital lease.

All of the foregoing warrants were also issued without registration in reliance
on Regulation D and Section 4(2), based, among other things, upon the fact that:
(i) the warrants were issued without general solicitation; (ii) each recipient
was determined to be sophisticated in relation to the investment; (iii) each
recipient gave assurance of investment intent and the warrants bear an
appropriate legend restricting transfer; and (iv) offers and sales were made to
a limited number of persons.
