GENERAL  

Bioject Medical Technologies Inc. ("Bioject" or the "Company")   
develops, manufactures and markets a jet injection system for needle-free   
drug delivery. Using this technology for injections virtually eliminates the   
associated risk of contaminated needlestick injuries and resulting blood-  
borne pathogen transmission, a major concern throughout the healthcare   
industry.  The Company manufactures and markets a professional jet injection   
system, the Biojector (registered trademark) 2000, which allows healthcare   
professionals to inject medications through the skin, both intramuscularly   
in the deltoid muscle and subcutaneously, without a needle.  The Biojector   
2000 system consists of two components: a hand-held, reusable jet-injector  
(the "Biojector 2000"); and a sterile, single-use disposable syringe   
("Biojector syringe"). The system is capable of delivering variable dose   
needle-free injections up to 1 ml. Additionally, the Company has developed 
a  self-injection system for delivery of various medications up to 1 ml. for 
use by non-professionals, and the Company is also developing systems for 
Hoffmann-La Roche to use with certain of their products pursuant to an 
agreement signed January 10, 1995.  See "Research and Product Development."  
  
Currently, medications are administered using various methods, each of   
which has advantages and limitations.  The leading drug delivery techniques   
include oral ingestion, intravenous infusion, subcutaneous and intramuscular   
injection, inhalation and transdermal diffusion "patch."  Many drugs are  
effective only when administered by injection.  Studies indicate that there   
are more than four billion needle-syringes sold annually in the U.S.  The   
Company believes that approximately 80% of these syringes are used for   
subcutaneous or intramuscular injections up to 1 ml.
 
Injections using traditional needle-syringes suffer from many   
shortcomings including (i) the risk of needlestick injuries, (ii) the risk   
of penetrating a patient's vein and (iii) patients' aversion to needles and   
discomfort.  The most important of these, the contaminated needlestick   
injury, occurs when a needle that has been exposed to a patient's blood   
accidentally penetrates a healthcare worker's skin.  Contaminated needles   
can transmit deadly blood-borne pathogens including such viruses as HIV 
and hepatitis B.  Published data indicate that the total number of reported   
needlestick injuries in the U.S. exceeds 800,000 annually.  

In recent years, with the growing awareness of blood-borne pathogen   
transmission, safety has become a critical concern for hospitals and   
healthcare professionals as well as patients.  As a result, pressures on the   
healthcare industry to eliminate the risk of contaminated needlestick   
injuries have  increased.  For example, the U.S. Occupational Safety and   
Health Administration ("OSHA") issued regulations, effective in 1992, which   
require healthcare institutions to treat all blood and other body fluids  
as infectious.  These regulations require the implementation of "engineering   
and work practice controls" to "isolate or remove the blood-borne pathogens   
hazard from the workplace."  Among the required controls are special   
handling and disposal of contaminated "sharps" in biohazardous "sharps"   
containers and follow-up testing for victims of needlestick injuries.  These  
regulations have significantly increased the cost of using needle-syringes.  
  
The costs resulting from needlestick injuries vary widely.   
Uncontaminated needlesticks involve relatively little cost, while   
investigating and following up contaminated needlestick injuries are much   
more expensive.  Investigation typically includes identifying the source of   
contamination, testing the source for blood-borne pathogens and repeatedly   
testing the needlestick victim over an extended period.  Some healthcare   
providers are requiring additional measures, including presuming that all  
needlestick injuries involve contaminated needles unless proven otherwise   
and, under certain circumstances,  administering prophylactic treatment such   
as zidovudine (AZT) or other drugs. The costs associated with treating   
needlestick injuries that result in infection by life-threatening pathogens,   
such as HIV or hepatitis B, are dramatically higher. In an effort to protect  
healthcare workers from needlestick injuries, many healthcare facilities have   
adopted more expensive, alternative technologies.  One such   
technology is an intravenous ("IV") port that permits the injection of   
medication directly into the IV line without requiring the use of a sharp   
needle for each administration.  Another is the "safety syringe," generally   
a disposable needle-syringe with a plastic sheath mechanism intended to   
cover the needle after use.  Despite many efforts to reduce the risk of   
needlestick injuries, such injuries remain a major health concern.  
  
The Company's long-term goal is to establish its jet injection   
technology as the preferred drug delivery method for all medications   
administered by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection.  The Company   
currently markets the Biojector 2000 system to public health and flu 
immunization clinics, and physician offices, has developed a self-injection
device for the delivery of various medications to be delivered by 
non-professionals in the home and is developing application specific devices
to be marketed by Hoffmann-La Roche.  The Company is also seeking 
relationships with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to market its 
existing Biojector 2000 and self injector products for specific applications
and to develop other application specific devices and companion syringes.  

THE COMPANY  
  
The Company's operations are conducted by Bioject Inc., an Oregon    
corporation, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bioject Medical   
Technologies Inc., an Oregon corporation (the "Company").  
  
Although Bioject Inc. commenced operations in 1985, the Company was   
formed in December 1992 for the sole purpose of acquiring all the capital   
stock of Bioject Medical Systems Ltd., a Company organized under the laws 
of British Columbia, Canada, in a stock-for-stock exchange in order   
to establish a U.S. domestic corporation as the publicly traded parent   
company for Bioject Inc. and Bioject Medical Systems Ltd.  Bioject Medical 
Systems Ltd. was terminated in fiscal 1997.  All references to the Company 
herein are to Bioject Medical Technologies Inc. and its   
subsidiary, unless the context requires otherwise.  The Company's   
executive offices and operations are located at 7620 SW Bridgeport Road,   
Portland, Oregon 97224, and its telephone number is (503) 639-7221.  
  
     "Biojector" and "Bioject" are trademarks of the Company.  
  
DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY'S PRODUCTS  
  
The Company's current product, the Biojector 2000 system, is a   
refinement of jet injection technology that enables healthcare professionals   
to reliably deliver measured variable doses of medication through the skin,   
either intramuscularly or subcutaneously, without a needle.  Giving an 
injection with a Biojector 2000 system is easy and straightforward. The 
healthcare worker checks the CO2 pressure on the easy-to-read gauge at the 
rear of the injector, draws up medication into the plastic syringe 
discarding the fill needle in a sharps container, inserts  the syringe 
into the power  injector, presses the syringe tip against the appropriate 
disinfected surface on the patient's skin, and then presses an   
actuator thereby injecting the  medication.  Medication is expelled rapidly   
through a precision molded, small diameter orifice in a thin stream at a   
velocity sufficient to penetrate the skin and force the medication into the   
tissue at the desired level.  The Biojector 2000 system consists of two   
components:  a hand-held, reusable jet injector; and a sterile, single-use   
disposable plastic syringe capable of delivering variable doses of   
medication up to 1 ml.  
  
The first component, the Biojector 2000, is a portable hand-held unit   
(about the size of a flashlight) which is designed to be easy to use by   
healthcare professionals, as well as attractive and non-threatening to   
patients.  As described in the June 7, 1993 issue of BUSINESSWEEK, the   
Biojector 2000 won the 1993 Gold Industrial Design Excellence Award given by   
Industrial Designers Society of America for its aesthetically pleasing and   
ergonomic design.  In July 1994, the Biojector 2000 also received the   
Alliance of Children's Hospitals Seal of Approval.  The Biojector 2000   
injector uses disposable CO2 cartridges as a power source. The CO2   
cartridges, which are purchased by the Company from an outside supplier,   
give an average of ten injections before requiring replacement.  The CO2 gas   
provides consistent, reliable pressure in order to push the syringe plunger   
and thereby propel the medication.  The CO2 does not come into contact with   
the patient or medication.  

The second component, the Biojector single-use disposable syringe, is   
provided in a sterile, peel-open package and consists of a plastic, needle-  
free, variable dose syringe containing a plunger, accompanied by a needle   
used only for filling.  The body of the syringe is transparent and has   
graduated markings to aid filling by healthcare workers in the same way as   
traditional needle-syringes are filled.  However, unlike the traditional  
needle-syringe, the Biojector fill needle is designed to be immediately   
discarded in a "sharps" container as soon as the syringe is filled, so that   
a needle need never come near a patient when an injection is being given.    
More importantly, since no needle penetrates the patient's skin, the risk of  
contaminated needlestick injury is virtually eliminated.  Under OSHA   
regulations, used Biojector syringes need not be disposed of in a special   
biohazardous "sharps" container.  
  
There are five different Biojector syringes, each of which is intended   
for a different injection depth or body type.  The syringes are molded using   
the Company's patented manufacturing process.  The healthcare worker selects   
the syringe appropriate for the intended type of injection.  One syringe   
size is for subcutaneous injections, while the others are designed for  
intramuscular injections, depending on the patient's body   
characteristics.  
  
The current suggested retail list price for the Biojector 2000   
professional jet injector is $995, and the suggested retail list price for   
syringes is $1.00 a piece.  CO2 cartridges are sold for a suggested retail   
price of $0.50 per cartridge and average ten injections per cartridge.    
Discounts are offered for volume purchases.  
  
The Company has other products in development which are intended to   
address other markets or to enhance the Biojector 2000 system.  See   
"Research and Product Development."  
  
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND  
  
In 1836, LaForgue developed the concept of placing medicine under the   
skin by means of a needle lance trochar.  In 1853, Wood developed the   
hollow-needle hypodermic which was later improved by Hunter, Pravaz and 
many others.  The basic needle-syringe in use across the healthcare market 
today is a direct derivation from the original Wood design and involves a 
hollow steel needle of various diameters and lengths attached to a plastic 
syringe body and plunger.  The entire unit requires special handling and 
disposal.  
  
The next fundamental improvement in injection technique for parenteral   
administration was made approximately 100 years following Wood's 
development  of the hollow-needle hypodermic. This improvement was the 
development of a pneumatically powered hypodermic device which was capable 
of injecting medication through the skin without a needle.  These early 
needle-free injection devices were large and bulky devices which lent 
themselves to mass inoculations but were inappropriate for single-shot 
administrations of medication in the physician's office, hospital or in the 
home setting.  
  
During the last 20 years, there have been many attempts to develop   
portable one-shot needle-free hypodermic devices.  Some of the problems   
which arose in these attempts to develop such devices include:  (a)   
inadequate injection power; (b) little or no control of pressure and depth   
of penetration; (c) complexity of design with related difficulties in cost   
and performance; (d) difficulties in use, including filling and cleaning;   
and (e) the necessity for sterilization between patients.  
  

In recent years, several spring-driven needle-free injectors have been   
developed and marketed primarily for the injection of insulin.  Each of   
these devices requires regular cleaning as well as filling from a separate   
medication bottle or vial.  Current prices for such injectors range from   
approximately $400 to $600 per injector.  The Company believes that due to   
the cost combined with the difficulties of use, market acceptance of these   
devices has been limited. 
  
Also in recent years, various versions of a "safety syringe" have been   
designed and marketed.  These syringes generally involve as their basic   
design a standard or modified needle-syringe with a plastic guard or   
sheathing surrounding the needle. Such covering is usually retracted or   
removed in order to give the injection.  Although the intent of the safety   
syringes is to reduce or eliminate needlestick injuries, the syringes   
require manipulation after injection and, therefore, still pose the risk  
of needlestick injury.  They are also bulky and add to contaminated waste   
disposal problems.  
  
  
MARKETING AND COMPETITION  
  
The Company is currently focusing on gaining acceptance of the   
Biojector system in the U.S. public health clinic and flu immunization 
markets. The Company is also working on arrangements to market the Biojector
2000 system to the U.S. physician office market and the home healthcare 
market.  The Company plans eventually to expand into international markets. 
Different marketing and distribution approaches are required in each of 
these markets. As new products are developed, the Company intends to 
establish additional channels of distribution.  For example, the Company 
is developing an injection system for specific applications which is 
anticipated to be marketed by Hoffmann-La Roche.  Pre-filled Biojector 
syringes, if developed, would be filled and marketed by the pharmaceutical
or biotechnology companies involved.  
  
The Company currently employs five sales representatives to be a dedicated   
sales force to sell the Company's Biojector 2000 system directly to the   
public health clinic and flu immunization markets in key metropolitan areas.  
These sales representatives are led by a vice president of sales and 
marketing and are supported by a product manager, customer service staff, 
three full time nurse trainers and 10-20 per diem nurse trainers.  Bioject's
direct sales efforts have resulted in the signing of public health 
agreements for the state of North Carolina, the New York City Middle Schools,
and the health departments in the states of New Mexico and Oklahoma.  
The Company expects to sign additional agreements with other public health 
agencies.  The Company has a national agreement with the Visiting Nurses 
Associations for use of the Biojector 2000 system for flu immunization.  In 
addition, through the VNA member organizations, it was recently announced 
that the Company will participate in a new flu immunization program to be 
sponsored by Wal-Mart this fall.  It is the Company's intention to leverage 
its success in these immunization programs to attract pharmaceutical company
strategic partners to assist it in gaining access to the physician office 
and other specialized markets where the benefits of needle-free drug 
delivery will enhance the distribution of their injectible medications.

In August 1994, Bioject signed an agreement with Homecare Management,   
Inc. (HMI), granting HMI exclusive rights to purchase Bioject's Needle-Free   
Injection Management System, the Biojector 2000, for use in the home   
healthcare market. Sales to HMI commenced in August 1994.  In return for   
HMI's commitment to purchase a minimum of 8,000 Biojector units over the   
ensuing two years, the Company granted volume pricing discounts to HMI.  
Throughout the term of the contract the selling price of Biojectors to HMI   
exceeded their standard cost.  During fiscal 1995 and 1996, the Company sold   
approximately 2,100 and 4,300 Biojectors to HMI for total sales revenue   
including syringes of $1.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively. HMI 
had not placed the great majority of these Biojectors with patients pending  
completion of negotiations with pharmaceutical companies for certain pricing   
concessions for medication to be administered with the Biojectors.  In   
January 1996, HMI requested that further shipments under the contract be   
suspended.  In February 1996, the Company learned from HMI's press releases   
that HMI expected to default under its loan, to take significant write-offs   
for accounts receivable and inventories, planned operational consolidations,   
and would restate certain prior period financial statements.  In fiscal 1997,
the Company agreed to repurchase certain of the Biojector inventories 
(including up to 6,000 devices) which HMI had on hand for a   
total of $660,000 including $322,000 of forgiveness of accounts receivable   
and payment of $338,000 in two installments, one-half of which was paid in 
July 1996 and with the balance remaining outstanding.  The Company was under 
no obligation to repurchase these inventories, and the repurchase was at a 
substantial discount to the original selling price to HMI.  

The sale of new technologies to hospitals and large clinics can be a   
lengthy process.  Introduction of new technologies to a hospital or large   
clinic typically involves screening by many individuals and committees   
within the institution, including new product evaluation committees,   
infection control officers, medical staff and business office personnel.  
Therefore, in order to shorten the sales cycle, the Company has adopted a 
strategy that focuses instead on the public health and flu immunization 
markets where there are fewer and more concentrated decision makers. 

The medical equipment market is highly competitive, and competition is likely
to intensify.  Many of the Company's existing and potential competitors have 
been in business longer than the Company and have substantially greater 
technical, financial, marketing, sales and customer support resources.  The 
Company believes the primary competition for the Biojector 2000 system and 
other jet injectors it may develop is the traditional disposable needle-
syringe and the "safety syringe."  Leading suppliers of needle-syringes 
include:  Becton-Dickinson & Co., Sherwood Medical Co., a subsidiary of 
American Home Products Corp., and Terumo Corp. of Japan.  Manufacturers of 
traditional needle-syringes compete primarily on   
price, which generally ranges from approximately $0.10 to $0.20 per unit.    
Manufacturers of "safety syringes" compete on features, quality and price.  
"Safety syringes" generally are priced in a range of $0.25 to $0.45 per   
unit.  
  
The Company expects to compete with traditional needle-syringes and   
"safety syringes" based on healthcare worker safety, ease of use, reduced   
cost of disposal, patient comfort, and compliance with OSHA regulations, but   
not on purchase price.  However, the Company believes that when all indirect   
costs (including disposal of syringes and testing, treatment and workers'   
compensation expense related to needlestick injuries) are considered, the   
Biojector 2000 system will compete effectively.  See "Forward Looking   
Statements" and "Risk Factors."  
  
The Company is not aware of any competing products with features and   
benefits comparable to the Biojector 2000 system. The Company is aware of 
other portable needle-free injectors on the market today but these are 
generally focused on subcutaneous self-injection applications of 0.5 ml. or 
less whereas the Company's products are suitable for both intramuscular and 
subcutaneous of up to 1 ml. in the professional and home injection markets.  
Manufacturers of needle-syringes, as well as other companies, may develop 
new products that compete directly or indirectly with the Company's products.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to 
compete successfully in this market.  See "Risk Factors - Competition," "- 
Dependence on Single Technology."  A variety of new technologies (for 
example, transdermal patches) are being developed as alternatives to 
injection for drug delivery.  While the Company does not believe such 
technologies have significantly affected the use of injection for drug 
delivery to date, there can be no assurance that they will not do so in 
the future.  

PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS  
  
The Company believes that technology incorporated in its injection   
device, single-dose disposable plastic syringes and products under   
development gives it significant advantages over the manufacturers of other   
jet injection systems and over prospective competitors seeking to develop   
similar systems.  The Company attempts to protect its technology through a   
combination of trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and procedures and  
patent prosecution.  
  
The Company has three U.S. patents which were issued with respect to jet   
injection technology incorporated in earlier versions of its jet injection   
systems and which expire from July 2007 to November 2008. Seven additional   
U.S. patents have been issued which protect developments incorporated in the   
Biojector 2000 system.  These patents incorporate a number of claims   
including claims regarding the jet injection system's design, method of   
operation, certain aspects of the syringe design and the method of   
manufacturing the syringe orifice.  The Company has also been granted   
patents relating to an electronic self-injection device and a drug mixing   
vial, newer technologies not yet incorporated in any product.  The Company   
has made additional patent filings regarding pre-filled syringe technologies   
and adapters for drug vial access.  The Company also generally files patent   
applications in Canada, Europe and Japan at the times and under the   
circumstances it deems filing to be appropriate under the procedures in   
place in each jurisdiction. There can be no assurance that any patents   
applied for will be granted or that patents held by the Company will be   
valid or sufficiently broad to protect the Company's technology or provide a   
significant competitive advantage.  See "Risk Factors."  
  
The Company also relies on trade secrets and proprietary know-how that   
it seeks to protect through confidentiality agreements with its employees,   
consultants, suppliers and others. There can be no assurance that these   
agreements will not be breached, that the Company would have adequate   
remedies for any breach, or that the Company's trade secrets will not   
otherwise become known to or be developed independently by competitors.  In  
addition, the laws of foreign countries may not protect the Company's   
proprietary rights to its technology, including patent rights, to the same   
extent as the laws of the U.S.  
  
Although the Company believes that it has independently developed its   
technology and attempts to assure that its products do not infringe the   
proprietary rights of others, if infringement were alleged and proved, there   
can be no assurance that the Company could obtain necessary licenses on   
terms and conditions that would not have an adverse affect on the Company.    
The Company is not aware of any asserted claim that the Biojector 2000 or   
any product under development violates the proprietary rights of any person.  
  
If a dispute arises concerning the Company's technology, litigation   
that could result in substantial cost to and diversion of effort by the   
Company might be necessary to enforce the Company's patents, to protect the   
Company's trade secrets or know-how or to determine the scope of the    
proprietary rights of others.  Adverse findings in any proceeding could   
subject the Company to significant liabilities to third parties, require the  
Company to seek licenses from third parties or otherwise adversely affect   
the Company's ability to manufacture and sell its products.  


GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION  
  
The Company's products and manufacturing operations are subject to   
extensive government regulations, both in the U.S. and abroad.  In the U.S.,   
the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") administers the Federal Food, Drug   
and Cosmetic Act (the "FFDCA") and has adopted regulations, including those   
governing the introduction of new medical devices, the observation of   
certain standards and practices with respect to the manufacturing and   
labeling of medical devices, the maintenance of certain records and the   
reporting of device-related deaths, serious injuries, and certain   
malfunctions to the FDA. Manufacturing facilities and certain Company   
records are also subject to FDA inspections. The FDA has broad discretion in   
enforcing the FFDCA and the regulations thereunder, and noncompliance can   
result in a variety of regulatory steps ranging from warning letters,    
product detentions, device alerts or field corrections to mandatory recalls,   
seizures, injunctive actions and civil or criminal penalties.  
  
The FFDCA provides that, unless exempted by regulation, medical devices   
may not be commercially distributed in the U.S. unless they have been    
cleared or approved by the FDA.  The FFDCA provides two basic review   
procedures for pre-market clearance or approval of medical devices.  Certain   
products qualify for a submission authorized by Section 510(k) of the FFDCA,   
wherein the manufacturer provides the FDA with a premarket notification   
("510(k) notification") of the manufacturer's intention to commence   
marketing the product.  The manufacturer must, among other things, establish   
in the 510(k) notification that the product to be marketed is substantially   
equivalent to another legally marketed product, (i.e., that it has the same   
intended use and that it as safe and effective as a legally marketed device   
and does not raise questions of safety and effectiveness that are different   
from those associated with the legally marketed device).  Marketing may   
commence when the FDA issues a letter finding substantial equivalence to   
such a legally marketed device.  The FDA may require, in connection with the   
510(k) submission, that it be provided with animal and/or human test   
results.  If a medical device does not qualify for the 510(k) procedure, the   
manufacturer must file a premarket approval ("PMA") application.  A PMA must   
show that the device is safe and effective and is generally a much more   
complex submission than a 510(k) notification typically requiring more   
extensive prefilling testing and a longer FDA review process.  
  
A 510(k) notification is required when a device is being introduced   
into the market for the first time.  A 510(k) notification is also required   
when the manufacturer makes a change or modification to an already marketed   
device that could significantly affect safety or effectiveness, or where   
there is a major change or modification in the intended use of the device.  
When any change or modification is made in a device or its intended use, the   
manufacturer is expected to make the initial determination as to whether the   
change or modification is of a kind that would necessitate the filing of a   
new 510(k) notification.  The FDA's regulations provide only limited   
guidance in making this determination.  

In April 1987, the Company received 510(k) marketing clearance from the   
FDA allowing the Company to market a hand-held CO2-powered jet injection   
system.  Although the Biojector 2000 system incorporates changes from the   
system with respect to which the Company's 1987 510(k) marketing clearance   
was received and expands its intended use, the Company made the   
determination that these were not major changes or modifications in intended    
use or changes in the device that could significantly affect the safety  
or effectiveness of the device and that, accordingly, the 1987 510(k)   
clearance permitted the Company to market the Biojector 2000 system in the   
U.S.  In  June 1994, the Company received clearance from the FDA under   
510(k) to market a version of its Biojector 2000 system in a configuration   
targeted at high volume injection applications. In October 1996, the Company 
received 510(k) clearance for a non-needle disposable vial access device. 
In March 1997, the Company received additional 510(k) clearance for certain 
enhancements to its Biojector 2000 system. The Company expects that the 
self-injection and other systems under development would require new 510(k) 
submissions.  See "Research and Product Development" and "Forward Looking 
Statements".  However, there can be no assurance that the FDA will concur 
with the Company's determination that the product can be cleared via a 
510(k) submission.  
  
The Company continues to seek arrangements with pharmaceutical companies to 
develop pre-filled Biojector syringe applications to permit the pharmaceutical 
companies to market their products packaged in Biojector prefilled 
containers.  See "Research and Product Development."  Before pre-filled 
Biojector syringes may be distributed for use in the U.S., certain FDA-
mandated stability tests may be required of those pharmaceutical companies.
Pre-filled syringes involve drugs packaged as a component of a medical 
device. It is current FDA policy that such pre-filled syringes,   
which are considered to be combination products, are evaluated by the FDA as   
drugs rather than medical devices.  Marketing of pre-filled syringes by   
pharmaceutical companies will require prior approval via a New or amended   
Drug Application ("NDA") or an Abbreviated New Drug Application ("ANDA").    
An NDA is a complex submission required to establish that a drug will be   
safe and effective for its intended uses.  An ANDA is a less detailed   
process which does not require, among other things, that the applicant   
provide complete reports of preclinical and clinical studies of safety and   
efficacy as are required for NDAs.  Assuming that the drugs used in the pre-  
filled syringes have previously been approved by the FDA for injection, the   
FDA will likely require that ANDAs, rather than NDAs, be submitted.  The   
Company believes that if a drug to be used in the Company's pre-filled   
syringe were already the subject of an approved NDA or ANDA for   
intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, the main issue affecting approval   
for use in the pre-filled syringe would be the adequacy of the syringe to   
store the drug, to assure its stability until used and to safely deliver  
the proper dose.  See "Forward Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors -   
Government Regulation."  
  
The FDA also regulates the Company's quality control and manufacturing   
procedures by requiring the Company and its contract manufacturers to   
demonstrate compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice ("GMP")   
Regulations.  These regulations require, among other things, that (i) the  
manufacturing process must be regulated and controlled by the use of written   
procedures and (ii) the ability to produce devices which meet the   
manufacturer's specifications must be validated by extensive and detailed   
testing of every aspect of the process. They also require investigation of   
any deficiencies in the manufacturing process or in the products produced   
and detailed record-keeping.  Further, the FDA's interpretation and   
enforcement of these requirements has been increasingly strict in recent   
years and seems likely to be even more stringent in the future.  Failure to   
adhere to GMP requirements would cause the products produced to be   
considered in violation of the Act and subject to enforcement action.  The   
FDA monitors compliance with these requirements by requiring manufacturers   
to register with the FDA, and subjecting them to periodic FDA inspections of  
manufacturing facilities.  If the inspector observes conditions that might   
be violated, the manufacturer must correct those conditions or explain them   
satisfactorily, or face potential regulatory action that might include   
physical removal of the product from the marketplace.  


The FDA's Medical Device Reporting Regulation requires that the Company   
provide information to the FDA on the occurrence of any death or serious   
injuries alleged to have been associated with the use of the Company's   
products, as well as any product malfunction that would likely cause or   
contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur.    
In addition, FDA regulations prohibit a device from being marketed for  
unapproved or uncleared indications.  If the FDA believes that the company   
is not in compliance with these regulations, it can institute proceedings to   
detain or seize products, issue a recall, seek injunctive relief or assess   
civil and criminal penalties against such company.  
  
The use and manufacture of the Company's products are subject to OSHA   
and other federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to such   
matters as safe working conditions for healthcare workers and Company   
employees, manufacturing practices, environmental protection and disposal of   
hazardous or potentially hazardous substances and the policies of hospitals  
and clinics relating to compliance therewith.  There can be no assurance   
that the Company will not be required to incur significant costs to comply   
with such laws, regulations or policies in the future, or that such laws,   
regulations or policies will not increase the costs or restrictions related   
to the use of the Company's products or otherwise have a materially adverse   
effect upon the Company's ability to do business.  See "Risk Factors."  
  
Laws and regulations regarding the manufacture, sale and use of medical   
devices are subject to change and depend heavily on administrative    
interpretations.  There can be no assurance that future changes in   
regulations or interpretations made by the FDA, OSHA or other regulatory   
bodies, will not adversely affect the Company.  
  
Sales of medical devices outside of the United States are subject to foreign 
regulatory requirements.  The requirements for obtaining premarket clearance 
or approval by a foreign country may differ from those required for FDA 
clearance or approval. Devices having an effective 510(k) clearance or PMA
may be exported without further FDA authorization.  FDA authorization is 
generally required in order to export other medical devices.  
  

RESEARCH AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT  
  
Research and development efforts are focused on enhancing the Company's   
current product offerings and developing both new jet injection technology   
and new products.  The Company continues to use clinical, magnetic resonance   
imaging and tissue studies to determine the reliability and performance of   
new and existing products.  As of March 31, 1997, the Company's research and  
product development staff consisted of 5 employees.  During fiscal 1995,   
1996 and 1997, the Company spent $1.4 million, $1.5 million, and $1.3   
million, respectively, on research and development.  
  
In March 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with Schering AG,   
Germany, for the development of a self-injection device for delivery of   
Betaseron to multiple sclerosis patients. During fiscal 1995 through 1997, 
the Company developed prototypes to Schering specifications which were 
accepted by Schering. During fiscal 1997, the Company entered into a supply 
agreement with Schering AG and commenced activities related to full 
production of the self injector.  Schering loaned the Company a total of 
$1.6 million to purchase molds and tooling for production of the product.  
In January 1997, the Company received notice that its contract with Schering
AG would be cancelled.  Under provisions of the contract, Schering AG had 
the option of canceling the agreement if the FDA required extensive 
clinical studies beyond an originally planned safety study.  Schering AG 
received a review letter from the FDA which would have required Schering 
to conduct additional material clinical studies in order to use non-
traditional delivery mechanisms with its Betaseron (r) product. Under 
terms of the contract, Schering was required to convert its 
$1.6 million note due from Bioject into approximately 460,000 shares of 
Bioject common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share. In addition, 
$106,000 of accrued interest was converted into approximately 27,000 shares 
of Bioject common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share. Schering 
is obligated to pay Bioject for the cost of product ordered through the date
of cancellation of the contract. Under terms of the agreement, in April 1994,
Schering paid a one-time $500,000 licensing fee for access to the Company's 
technology and paid   $600,000 as its contribution toward Phase I of the 
development.  In October  1995 Schering paid $600,000 as its contribution 
toward Phase II development and $60,000 of additional costs associated with 
completion of Phase I.   During fiscal 1997, Schering paid $300,000 for 
Phase III development costs.   


In January 1995, the Company signed a joint development agreement with   
Hoffmann-La Roche to develop proprietary drug delivery systems for Roche   
products.  The agreement provides for Bioject to develop, manufacture and   
sell Biojector needle-free drug delivery systems designed to Roche   
specifications.  In return, Bioject has granted Roche exclusive worldwide   
rights to distribute these systems and their components for use with  
certain Roche products.  Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. is the United States   
affiliate of the multinational group of companies headed by Roche Holding of   
Basel, Switzerland, one of the world's leading research-intensive healthcare   
companies.  As of 1995 fiscal year end, the Company had commenced design of   
a prototype device and had agreed with Roche on product specifications.  
During fiscal 1996, the Company developed and delivered to Roche   
preproduction prototypes for testing and developed the clinical   
preproduction prototypes which were delivered to Roche in April 1996.  
As of March 31, 1997, the Company and Hoffmann-LaRoche were finalizing 
their submission to obtain regulatory approval to market the product.  
Hoffmann-LaRoche was also gathering marketing information in order to sign a 
supply agreement.  In  February 1995, Hoffmann-La Roche paid a one-time 
licensing fee totalling  $500,000, and the agreement provides that it will 
pay specified product development fees on an agreed upon schedule of which
$900,000 was paid in fiscal 1996 and $250,000 was paid in fiscal 1997.  
  
In addition to activities described above, the Company is seeking   
arrangements with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies for the use of   
pre-filled syringes to eliminate the filling and measuring procedures   
associated with traditional injection of medications.  Before pre-filled   
Biojector syringes may be distributed for use in the U.S., these companies   
must commit to the packaging and distribution of their products in this   
manner and to the time and financial resources necessary for FDA review and   
approval. This process could be lengthy.  See "Business -- Government   
Regulation."  There can be no assurance that such companies will commit   
efforts to develop pre-filled packaging and pursue regulatory approval or   
that regulatory approval of pre-filled Biojector syringes will be obtained.  
  
The Company intends to continue research and development efforts   
designed to further its understanding of the physics and physiology of jet   
injection.  These efforts will include further clinical studies to   
demonstrate efficacy of jet injection and to evaluate new products and   
enhancements to the Company's existing products.  To advance these studies,   
in April 1994 the Company formed a Department of Clinical Affairs research   
group, which initiates and coordinates these studies.  
  
MANUFACTURING  
  
The Company assembles the Biojector 2000 and related syringes from   
components purchased from outside suppliers.  Prior to introduction of the   
Biojector 2000 system in 1993, the Company had not engaged in manufacturing   
on a commercial scale.  However, in connection with that introduction, the   
Company increased its manufacturing capabilities and built inventories to   
support anticipated product sales.  
  
Throughout fiscal 1994 and 1995, the Company's manufacturing processes   
were primarily manual.  These processes did not permit the Company to   
produce its products at costs which would allow it to operate profitably.    
During fiscal 1996, the Company implemented a plan to increase manufacturing   
capacity and refine production methods to meet anticipated future demand and   
to reduce product costs.  For the Biojector 2000, cost reduction efforts   
included converting from a two piece to a one piece housing, converting to   
continuous process manufacturing and implementing volume purchasing programs   
from suppliers.  For the Biojector syringes, these efforts included   
increasing supplier mold capacity and automating final assembly and   
packaging.  See "Risk Factors - Limited Manufacturing Experience, Need to   
Reduce Unit Cost."  

During fiscal 1997, the Company's manufacturing activities focused on 
retesting the devices repurchased from HMI to ensure their continuing 
compliance with new product standards and selective upgrade of certain of 
these units to current version configuration. Manufacturing also focused on
finalizing product engineering and bringing up the new self injector device 
and syringe manufacturing lines in advance of product launch.  
  
In order to succeed in expanding manufacturing capacity and reducing   
unit production cost, the Company must attract and retain qualified assembly   
workers and must establish and maintain relationships with suppliers that   
can deliver large numbers of components meeting applicable quality standards   
in a timely and reliable manner at acceptable prices.  
  
EMPLOYEES  
  
As of March 31, 1997, the Company had 39 full-time employees with 5   
employees engaged in research and product development, 10 in sales and   
marketing, 15 in manufacturing and 9 in administration. The Company engages   
a limited number of part-time consultants who participate in research   
activities.  The Company also employs temporary contract workers primarily   
for assembly operations, the number of which varies, depending upon   
production requirements.  As of March 31, 1997, there was one consultant, 8 
to 12 per diem nurses and one contract/temporary worker employed by the 
Company.  None of the Company's employees is represented by a labor union.  
  
PRODUCT LIABILITY  
  
The Company believes that its products reliably inject medications both   
subcutaneously and intramuscularly when used in accordance with product   
guidelines.  The Company's current insurance policies provide coverage at   
least equal to an aggregate limit of $6 million with respect to certain   
product liability claims.  The Company has not experienced any product  
liability claims to date.  There can be no assurance, however, that the   
Company will not become subject to such claims, that the Company's current   
insurance would cover such claims, or that insurance will continue to be   
available to the Company in the future.  The Company's business may be   
adversely affected by product liability claims.  
  
RISK FACTORS  
  
Investment in securities of the Company involves a high degree of risk.    
The following factors, among others, should be considered by investors.  

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING. The Company believes that its current 
cash position and cash received from a private placement of common stock and 
warrants in June 1997, combined with revenues and other cash receipts will 
not be adequate to fund the Company's operations through the end of fiscal 
1998. The Company has identified a number of potential financing sources and 
is pursuing them aggressively. See "Forward Looking Statements". Even if the 
Company is successful in raising additional financing, unforeseen costs and 
expenses or lower than anticipated cash receipts from product sales or 
research and development activities could accelerate or increase the 
financing requirements. The Company has been successful in raising 
additional financing in the past and believes that sufficient funds will 
be available to fund future operations. See "Forward Looking Statements." 
However, there can be no assurance that the Company's efforts will be 
successful, and there can be no assurance that such financing will be 
available on terms which are not significantly dilutive to existing 
shareholders. Failure to obtain needed additional capital on terms 
acceptable to the Company, or at all, would significantly restrict the 
Company's operations and ability to continue product development and 
growth and materially adversely affect the Company's business. The Company 
has no banking line of credit or other established source of borrowing.  
The Company's independent accountants have qualified their opinion with 
respect to their audit of the Company's 1997 consolidated financial
statements as the result of doubts concerning the Company's ability to 
continueas a going concern in the absence of additional financing.

  
UNCERTAINTY OF MARKET ACCEPTANCE.   The Company's success will 
depend upon   market acceptance of its jet injection drug delivery system, 
the Biojector  2000 system, and, to other products under development. 
Currently, the dominant technology used for intramuscular and subcutaneous 
injections is the hollow-needle syringe.  Needle-syringes, while low in 
cost, have limitations, particularly relating to contaminated needlestick 
injuries.   Use of the Biojector 2000 system for intramuscular and 
subcutaneous injections virtually eliminates the associated risk of these 
injuries; however, the cost per injection is significantly higher.  As with 
any new technology, there can be no assurance that the Biojector 2000 system 
will compete successfully.  A previous jet injection system manufactured by 
the Company did not achieve market acceptance and is no longer being 
marketed.   The Biojector 2000 was introduced in January 1993.  To date 
the major portion of sales have been sales to HMI that were not placed in 
service and which the Company agreed to repurchase at a substantial discount
to the original selling price.  Failure of the Biojector 2000 system to 
gain market acceptance would have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's financial condition and results of operations.   

HISTORY OF LOSSES; UNCERTAIN PROFITABILITY.  Since its formation in 
1985,  the Company has incurred significant annual operating losses and 
negative cash flow.  At March 31, 1997 the Company had an accumulated deficit 
of $34.2 million.  The Company's revenues to date have been derived primarily   
from licensing and technology fees, and from product sales, which were   
principally sales to dealers for the stocking of inventories and to HMI.    
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate   
significant revenues or achieve profitability.  See "Management's Discussion   
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."  
  

LIMITED MANUFACTURING EXPERIENCE; NEED TO REDUCE UNIT COST.  
The Company has  limited experience manufacturing its products in commercial 
quantities.  The  Company has increased its production capacity for the 
Biojector 2000 system  through automation of, and changes in, production 
methods.  The current cost  per injection of the Biojector 2000 system is 
substantially higher than that  of traditional needle-syringes, its principal
competition.  A key element of the Company's business strategy is to reduce 
the overall system cost through automating production and packaging. The 
Company has experienced and may continue to experience setbacks and delays
in its cost reduction efforts including failure to deliver reduced cost parts 
to specifications.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able 
to develop and implement effective high volume production or achieve necessary 
unit cost reductions. Failure to do either would adversely affect the 
Company's financial condition and results of operations.  See "Management's 
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation" and  
"Manufacturing."  
  
GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION.  The Company's products and manufacturing  
operations are subject to extensive government regulation,
both in the U.S.  and abroad.  In the U.S., the development, manufacture,
marketing and promotion of medical devices are regulated by the Food and 
Drug Administration ("FDA") under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act   
("FFDCA").  In 1987, the Company received clearance from the FDA under   
Section 510(k) of the FFDCA to market a hand-held CO2-powered jet injection   
system.  The FFDCA provides that new premarket notifications under Section   
510(k) of the FFDCA are required to be filed when, among other things, there   
is a major change or modification in the intended use of a device or a   
change or modification to a legally marketed device that could significantly   
affect its safety or effectiveness. Although the Biojector 2000 system 
incorporates changes from the system with respect to which the Company's 
1987 510(k) marketing  clearance was received and expands its intended use, 
the Company made the  determination that these were not major changes or 
modifications in intended use or changes in the device that could 
significantly affect the safety or effectiveness of the device and that, 
accordingly, the 1987 510(k) clearance permitted the Company to market the 
Biojector 2000 system in the U.S.  In June 1994, the Company received 
clearance from the FDA under 510(k) to market a version of its Biojector 2000 
system in a configuration targeted at high volume injection applications. 
In October 1996, the Company received 510(k) clearance for a non-needle 
disposable vial access device. In March 1997, the Company received FDA 
510(k) clearance to market the Biojector 2000 incorporating certain 
enhancements to the product.

Future changes to manufacturing procedures could necessitate the filing of a   
new 510(k) notification.  Also, future products, product enhancements or   
changes, or changes in product use may require clearance under Section   
510(k), or they may require FDA premarket approval ("PMA") or other   
regulatory approvals.  PMAs and these other regulatory approvals generally   
involve more extensive prefilling testing that a 510(k) clearance and a   
longer FDA review process.  Under current FDA policy, applications involving   
prefilled syringes would he evaluated by the FDA as drugs rather than   
devices, requiring NDAs or ANDAs.  See "Governmental Regulation."  
Depending on the circumstances, drug regulation can be more bureaucratic and 
time consuming than device regulation.  
  
FDA regulatory processes are time consuming and expensive, and there can be   
no assurance that product applications submitted by the Company will be   
cleared or approved by the FDA.  In addition, the Company's products must be   
manufactured in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices ("GMP")   
specified in regulations under the FDA Act.  The FDA has broad discretion in   
enforcing the FDA Act, and noncompliance with the Act could result in a   
variety of regulatory actions ranging product detentions, device alerts  
or field corrections, to mandatory recalls, seizures, injunctive actions,   
and civil or criminal penalties.  
  
Distribution of the Company's products in countries other than the U.S. may   
be subject to regulation in those countries.  An application was made to the   
Japan Ministry of Health and Welfare to obtain necessary approvals to market   
the Biojector 2000 system in Japan which was not carried to completion by   
the Company's then Japanese distributor.  See "Governmental Regulation."  
  
UNCERTAINTY IN HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY; GOVERNMENT HEALTHCARE REFORM.  
The healthcare industry is subject to changing political, economic and 
regulatory influences that may affect the procurement practices and 
operations of healthcare facilities. During the past several years, the   
healthcare industry has been subject to increased government regulation of   
reimbursement rates and capital expenditures.  Among other things, third   
party payers are increasingly attempting to contain healthcare costs by  
limiting both coverage and reimbursement levels for healthcare products and   
procedures.  Because the price of the Biojector 2000 system exceeds the   
price of needle injection systems, cost control policies of third party   
payers, including government agencies, may adversely affect use of the   
Biojector 2000 system.  
  
DEPENDENCE ON THIRD-PARTY RELATIONSHIPS.  The Company is dependent on third  
parties for distribution of the Biojector 2000 system to certain market 
segments, for the manufacture of component parts, and for assistance 
with the development and distribution of its future Betaseron self-injection 
and application specific systems.  
  
The Company intends to seek relationships to distribute to the physician   
office market in the future. Past dealer relationships have not been   
successful. There can be no assurance that the Company's  future dealers   
will provide sufficient sales support to establish the Company's current   
product.  See "Marketing and Competition."  
  
The Company's current manufacturing processes for the Biojector 2000 jet   
injector and disposable syringes consist primarily of assembly of component   
parts supplied by outside suppliers. Certain of these components are   
currently obtained from single sources, with some components requiring   
significant production lead times.  In the past, the Company has experienced   
delays in the delivery of certain components, although to date no such   
delays have had a material adverse effect on the Company's operations.    
There can be no assurance that the Company will not experience delays in the   
future, or that such delays would not have a material adverse effect on the   
Company's financial condition and result of operations.  See    
"Manufacturing."  

The Company has entered into agreements with certain major pharmaceutical   
companies for development and distribution of its jet injection systems.    
These companies have the right to terminate these agreements at certain   
phases as defined in the agreements.  There can be no assurance these   
companies interest and participation in the projects will continue.  Failure   
to receive additional funding from these companies could adversely affect   
the development and production of the products involved and,   
correspondingly, the Company's financial condition and results of   
operations.  See "Research and Product Development."  
  
ABILITY TO MANAGE GROWTH.  If the Company's products achieve 
market acceptance, the Company expects to achieve rapid growth. This growth   
strategy will require expanded customer services and support, increased   
personnel throughout the Company, expanded operational and financial   
systems, and the implementation of new control procedures.  There can be no   
assurance that the Company will be able to attract qualified personnel or   
successfully manage expanded operations.  As the Company expands, it may   
from time to time experience constraints that would adversely affect its   
ability to satisfy customer demand in a timely fashion. Failure to manage   
growth effectively could adversely affect the Company's financial condition   
and results of operations.  
  
COMPETITION.  The medical equipment market is highly competitive and   
competition is likely to intensify.  The Company's products compete   
primarily with traditional needle-syringes, "safety syringes" and also with   
other alternative drug delivery systems. In recent years, some needle-free 
self injectors have also gained some market prominence including signing of 
certain corporate partnerships.  While the Company believes its products 
provide a superior drug delivery method, there can be no assurance that the 
Company will be able to compete successfully with existing drug delivery 
products.  Many of the Company's competitors have longer operating histories 
as well as substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and customer 
support resources than the Company.  There can be no assurance  that one or 
more of these competitors will not develop an alternative drug  delivery system 
that competes more directly with the Company's products, or that the Company's 
products would be able to compete successfully with such a product.  
See "Marketing and Competition."  
  
DEPENDENCE ON SINGLE TECHNOLOGY.  The Company's strategy has been to 
focus its development and marketing efforts on its jet injection technology.  
This focus renders the Company particularly sensitive to competing products 
and alternative drug delivery systems.  The Company believes that healthcare   
providers' desire to minimize the use of the traditional needle-syringe has   
stimulated development of a variety of alternative drug delivery system such   
as "safety syringes," jet injection systems and transdermal diffusion   
"patches."  In addition, pharmaceutical companies frequently attempt to   
develop drugs for oral delivery instead of injection.  
  
While the Company believes that for the foreseeable future there will   
continue to be a significant need for injections, there can be no assurance   
that alternative drug delivery methods will not be developed which are   
preferable to injection.  See "Marketing and Competition."  
  
PATENTS AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.  The Company relies on a combination
of trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and procedures, and patent   
prosecution to protect its proprietary technologies.  The Company has been   
granted seven patents in the United States and two patents in certain other   
countries covering certain technology embodied in its current jet injection   
system and certain manufacturing processes.  Additional patent applications   
are pending in the U.S and certain foreign countries.  There can be no   
assurance that the claims contained in any patent application will be   
allowed, or that any patent will provide adequate protection for the   
Company's products and technology.  In the absence of patent protection, the   
Company may be vulnerable to competitors who attempt to copy the Company's  
products or gain access to its trade secrets and know-how. In addition, the   
laws of foreign countries may not protect the Company's proprietary rights   
to this technology to the same extent as the laws of the U.S.  The Company   
believes that it has independently developed its technology and attempts to   
ensure that its products do not infringe the proprietary rights of others,   
and the Company knows of no infringement claims. However, any such claims   
could have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition   
and results of operations.  See "Patents and Proprietary Rights."  
  
PRODUCT LIABILITY.  Producers of medical devices may face substantial   
liability for damages in the event of product failure or if it is alleged   
the product caused harm.  The Company currently maintains product liability   
insurance and has not experienced any product liability claims to date.    
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will not be subject to  
such claims, that the Company's current insurance would cover such claims   
and that adequate insurance will continue to be available on acceptable   
terms to the Company in the future.  The Company's business could be   
adversely affected by product liability claims.  See "Product Liability."  
  
DEPENDENCE UPON KEY EMPLOYEES.  The Company's success is dependent 
upon the retention of its executive officers and other key employees.  
Competition exists for qualified personnel, and the Company's success will 
depend in part upon attracting and retaining such personnel.  Failure in 
these efforts ould have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, 
financial condition or results of operations.  
  
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE. In November and December of 1995,
the Company completed a private placement of 2,303,009 units (each unit 
representing one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of 
common stock).  The Company also granted a warrant to its placement agent 
in the private placement to purchase 137,086 shares of common stock.  
The shares issued in the 1995 private placement were registered for resale 
on a Registration Statement on Form S-3. The Company also granted 
registration rights with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the 
warrants.  In December 1996, the Company completed a private placement of 
3,434,493 units (each unit representing one share of common stock and a 
warrant to purchase one share of common stock).  The Company also granted a 
warrant to its placement agent in the private placement to purchase 156,000 
shares of common stock. The shares issued in the 1996 private placement and 
the underlying shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants were registered 
for resale on a Form S-3 Registration Statement.  In June 1997, the Company 
completed a private placement of 1,744,186 units (each unit representing one 
share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one-half share of common 
stock). The Company has an obligation to seek registration on Form S-3 for 
the 1997 private placement shares and, if possible, the common shares 
underlying the warrants.  Sales of substantial numbers of shares of 
common stock in the public market, or the availability of such shares for 
sale, could adversely affect the market price for the common stock and make 
it more difficult for the Company to raise funds through equity offerings in 
the future.  
  
POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECTS ON TRADING MARKET. The Common Stock is 
quoted on the NASDAQ National Market.  There are a number of continuing 
requirements that must be met in order for the Common Stock offered hereby 
to remain eligible for quotation on the NASDAQ National Market or the NASDAQ 
Small Cap Market. In November 1996, NASDAQ approved changes to its 
quantitative and qualitative standards for issuers listing on NASDAQ, 
subject to public comment and approval by the Securities and Exchange 
Commission.  Among the proposed changes are the elimination of the alternative 
test for issuers failing to meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 and an 
increase in the quantitative standards for both the NASDAQ National Market 
and the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. The failure to meet these maintenance criteria 
in the future could result in the delisting of the Company's Common Stock 
from NASDAQ.  In such event, trading, if any, in the Common Stock may then 
continue to be conducted in the non-NASDAQ over-the-counter market.  As a 
result, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain 
accurate quotations as to the market value of, the Company's Common Stock.  
In addition, if the Common Stock were delisted from trading on NASDAQ and the   
trading price of the Common Stock were less than $5.00 per share, trading in  
the Common Stock would be subject to the requirements of certain rules   
promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require broker-dealers to make   
additional disclosures and to implement additional procedures in connection   
with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock. The additional   
burdens imposed upon broker-dealers may discourage broker-dealers from   
effecting transactions in penny stocks, which could reduce the liquidity of  
the shares of Common Stock and thereby have a material adverse effect on the   
trading market for the securities.  
  
POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE.  The market for the Company's 
common  stock and for the securities of other early stage, small market-  
capitalization companies is highly volatile.  The Company believes that   
factors such as quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in financial results, new   
product introductions by the Company or its competition, public   
announcements, changing regulatory environments, sales of Common Stock by   
certain existing shareholders and substantial product orders could   
contribute to the volatility of the price of the Company's Common Stock,  
causing it to fluctuate dramatically.  General economic trends such as   
recessionary cycles and changing interest rates may also adversely affect   
the market price of the Company's Common Stock. See  "Market for the   
Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters."  
  
Item 2.     PROPERTIES  
  
The Company's principal offices are located in Portland, Oregon in    
approximately 24,000 square feet of leased office and manufacturing space   
under a lease which expires in September 2002.  The monthly minimum lease   
obligation for this facility is approximately $15,000.  These facilities   
include the Company's sales and administration offices and equipment,   
research and engineering facilities, a clean room assembly area, assembly  
line, testing facilities and a warehouse area.  
  
The Company leases additional warehouse space totalling approximately 
5,000 square feet for finished goods storage and shipments to customers.  
This lease, which also expires in September 2002, has minimum monthly lease 
obligations totalling $1,900.  
  
The Company believes its current facilities will be sufficient to   
support its operations for the next 2-3 fiscal years.  As the Company 
requires additional space to accommodate growth in its sales and 
manufacturing activities, it is the Company's intention to lease additional 
facilities adjacent to or near its present operations.  The Company believes 
that, if necessary, it will be able to obtain facilities at rates and under 
terms comparable to those under the current leases.

Item 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  
	    CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  
  
OVERVIEW  
  
Operating losses have resulted in an accumulated deficit of approximately $34.3 
million as of March 31, 1997.  In fiscal 1995 and 1996, the Company incurred 
significantly increased costs associated with the production and sale of the 
Biojector 2000 system, including sales and marketing efforts, manufacturing 
ramp-up and inventory build-up.  The Company has been working on a product 
cost reduction program which commenced phase-in during fiscal 1996 and results 
from the initial phase of which were reflected in fiscal 1997 operating 
performance. The Company's ability to achieve and sustain profitability will 
depend in part upon customer acceptance of the Biojector 2000 system, sustained 
product performance, implementing additional product cost reductions and 
attaining revenues sufficient to support profitable operations.  
  
In August 1994, Bioject signed an agreement with Health Management,   
Inc. (HMI), granting HMI exclusive rights to purchase Bioject's Needle-Free   
Injection Management System (trademark), the Biojector 2000, for use in the   
home healthcare market. In return for HMI's commitment to purchase a minimum   
of 8,000 Biojector units over the ensuing two years, the Company granted   
volume pricing discounts to HMI.  During the term of the contract, the   
selling price of Biojectors to HMI exceeded their standard cost.  During   
fiscal 1995 and 1996, the Company sold approximately 2,100 and 4,300   
Biojectors to HMI for total sales revenue including syringes of $1.1 million   
and $2.2 million, respectively. HMI did not place the great majority of   
these Biojectors with patients pending completion of negotiations with   
pharmaceutical companies for certain pricing concessions for medication to   
be administered with the Biojectors.  In January 1996 HMI requested that   
Bioject suspend shipments to HMI.  In February 1996, the Company learned   
from HMI's press releases that HMI expected to default under its loans, to   
take significant write-offs for accounts receivable and inventories, planned   
operational consolidations, and would restate certain prior period financial  
statements.  In fiscal 1997, although not obligated to do so, the   
Company agreed to repurchase certain of the HMI inventories, including up to   
6,000 Biojector units, for cash and forgiveness of accounts receivable   
totalling $660,000.  The repurchase of these inventories was at a   
substantial discount to the original selling price to HMI.  
  
In March 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with Schering AG,   
Germany, for the development of a self-injection device for delivery of   
Betaseron(R) to multiple sclerosis patients. During fiscal 1995, the Company   
developed a proof-of-concept prototype and demonstrated this prototype to   
Schering.  The Company and Schering finalized product specifications.  The  
Company also commenced development of the preproduction clinical prototype.    
During fiscal 1996, the Company delivered the preproduction clinical   
prototypes to Schering and worked on finalizing the production prototype   
design. During fiscal 1997, the Company entered into a supply agreement with 
Schering AG and commenced activities related to full production of the self 
injector.  Schering loaned the Company a total of $1.6 million to purchase 
molds and tooling for production of the product.  In January 1997, the Company 
received notice that its contract with Schering AG would be cancelled.  Under 
provisions of the contract, Schering AG had the option of canceling the 
agreement if the FDA required extensive clinical studies beyond an originally 
planned safety study.  Schering AG received a review letter from the FDA which 
would have required Schering to conduct additional material clinical studies 
in order to use non-traditional delivery mechanisms with its Betaseron(R) 
product. Under terms of the contract, Schering was required to convert its 
$1.6 million note due from Bioject into approximately 460,000 shares of 
Bioject common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share.  In addition, 
$106,000 of accrued interest was converted into approximately 27,000 shares 
of Bioject common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share.  
Approximately 487,000 shares of Bioject stock are held by Schering AG.  In 
addition, Schering is obligated to pay Bioject for the cost of product ordered 
through the date of cancellation of the contract.
 
In January 1995, the Company signed a joint development agreement with   
Hoffmann-La Roche to develop proprietary drug delivery systems for Roche   
products.  The agreement provides for Bioject to develop, manufacture and   
sell Biojector needle-free drug delivery systems designed to Roche   
specifications.  In return, Bioject has granted Roche exclusive worldwide   
rights to distribute these systems and their components for use with certain   
Roche products.  Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. is the United States affiliate of   
the multinational group of companies headed by Roche Holding of Basel,   
Switzerland, one of the world's leading research-intensive healthcare   
companies.  As of 1995 fiscal year end, the Company had commenced design of   
a prototype device and had agreed with Roche on product specifications.   
During fiscal 1996, the Company developed and delivered to Roche   
preproduction prototypes for testing and developed the clinical   
preproduction prototypes which were delivered to Roche in April 1996.  As of 
March 31, 1997, the Company and Hoffmann-LaRoche were finalizing their 
submission to obtain regulatory approval to market the product.  Hoffmann-
LaRoche was also gathering marketing information in order to sign a supply 
agreement.  In February 1995, Hoffmann-La Roche paid a one-time licensing 
fee totalling $500,000 and the agreement provides that it will pay specified 
product development fees on an agreed upon schedule of which $900,000 was 
paid in fiscal 1996 and $250,000 was paid in fiscal 1997.  

Throughout fiscal 1994 and 1995, the Company's manufacturing processes   
were primarily manual.  These processes did not permit the Company to   
produce its products at costs which would allow it to operate profitably.    
During fiscal 1996, the Company implemented a plan to increase manufacturing   
capacity and refine production methods to meet anticipated future demand and   
to reduce product costs.  For the Biojector 2000, cost reduction efforts   
included converting from a two piece to a one piece housing, converting to   
continuous process manufacturing and implementing volume purchasing programs   
from suppliers.  For the Biojector syringes, these efforts included    
increasing supplier mold capacity and automating final assembly and   
packaging. During fiscal 1997, the Company's manufacturing activities  
focused on retesting the devices repurchased from HMI to ensure their   
continuing compliance with new product standards and elective upgrade of   
certain of these units to current version configuration.  Manufacturing    
also focused on finalizing product engineering and on planning   
for, designing and bringing up the new self injector device and syringe   
manufacturing lines in advance of product launch.  
  
The Company's revenues to date have not been sufficient to cover   
operating expenses.  However, the Company believes that if its products   
achieve market acceptance and the volume of sales increases, and its product   
costs are reduced, its costs of goods as a percentage of sales will decrease   
and eventually the Company will generate net income.  See "Forward Looking   
Statements" and "Business - Risk Factors." The level of sales required to   
generate net income will be affected by a number of factors including the   
pricing of the Company's products, its ability to attain efficiencies that   
can be attained through volume and automated manufacturing, and the impact   
of inflation on the Company's manufacturing and other operating costs.    
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully  
implement its manufacturing cost reduction program or sell its products at   
prices or in volumes sufficient to achieve profitability or offset increases   
in its costs should they occur.  

Revenues and results of operations have fluctuated and can be expected   
to continue to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and from year   
to year.  Various factors may affect quarterly and yearly operating results   
including (i) length of time to close product sales, (ii) customer budget   
cycles, (iii) implementation of cost reduction measures, (iv) uncertainties   
and changes in purchasing due to third party payor policies and proposals   
relating to national healthcare reform, (v) timing and amount of payments   
under technology development agreements and (vi) timing of new product   
introductions by the Company and its competition.  
  
In the future, the Company may incur a non-cash charge to compensation   
expense in connection with the issuance of 100,000 shares of Common Stock to   
the Company's Chief Executive Officer. Under terms of his employment   
agreement, the Company's Chairman will receive 100,000 shares of common   
stock when the Company first achieves two consecutive quarters of positive   
earnings per share.  Upon issuance of such shares the Company will record a  
non-cash charge to compensation at the fair market value of the stock on the   
last day of the quarter in which the shares are earned.  
  
During the next fiscal year, the Company will continue to focus its   
efforts on expanding sales, reducing the cost of its products, developing   
a 1.5 ml. injector for Hoffmann-La Roche, pursuing additional alliances with 
pharmaceutical companies and conserving its fiscal resources.  The Company 
does not expect to report net income from operations in fiscal 1998. 
See "Forward Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors."  
  
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  
  
Product sales increased from $1.5 million in fiscal 1995 to $3.1 million 
in fiscal 1996 and declined to $1.3 in fiscal 1997.  Sales in fiscal 1995 
consisted of $1.1 million of sales to Health Management Inc., and the 
remainder to hospitals, large clinics, individual physician offices and 
certain selected distributors.  Sales in fiscal 1996 consisted of $2.3 million 
of sales to HMI with the remainder primarily to public health and flu 
immunization clinics.  Sales in fiscal 1997, consisted of $1.1 
million of sales to public health and flu immunization clinics with the 
balance to a strategic partner.
  
License and technology fees varied from $1.4 million in fiscal 1995 to $1.2 
million in fiscal 1996 and $966,000 in fiscal 1997. The fiscal 1995 fees 
included a one-time $500,000 licensing fee for access to the Company's 
technology received from Schering and a similar one-time $500,000 licensing 
fee received from Hoffmann-La Roche with the balance of the fiscal 1995 fees 
consisting of product development revenues recognized in connection with the 
Schering agreement.  The fiscal 1996 and 1997 fees consisted principally of 
product development  revenues recognized for work performed under the Schering 
and Hoffmann-La Roche agreements.  
  
Manufacturing expense consists of the costs of product sold and manufacturing 
overhead expense related to excess manufacturing capacity.  The total of these 
costs varied from $3.4 million in fiscal 1995 to $5.2 million in fiscal 1996 
and $2.2 million in fiscal 1997 due in part to changes in sales and, 
therefore, to changes in the total costs of product sold.  The increase from 
1995 to 1996 also reflects increased regulatory and quality assurance staff 
to support the higher level of manufacturing and increased depreciation 
expense associated with automated assembly equipment installed during fiscal 
1996.  The decrease in expense from fiscal 1996 to 1997 reflects reductions in 
materials and labor for injectors and syringes and reductions in fixed and 
variable manufacturing overhead expense. Fixed manufacturing overhead 
totalled $1.3 million, $1.9 million and $1.5 million in fiscal 1995, 1996 
and 1997, respectively.

Research and development expense increased slightly from to $1.4 million in 
fiscal 1995 to $1.5 million in fiscal 1996 and then decreased to $1.3 million 
in fiscal 1997.  Fiscal 1995 expenditures related to work associated with 
development of the Schering device and to initial work on the Hoffmann-La 
Roche device.  Fiscal 1996 expenditures related entirely to work performed 
under the Schering and Hoffmann-La Roche agreements.  Fiscal 1997 expenditures 
related to final design and transfer to manufacturing of the Schering device 
and additional development work on the Hoffmann-LaRoche system.  Costs vary 
from year to year depending on product activity.  
  
Selling, general and administrative expense totalled $4.2 million, $3.2 
million and $3.2 million in fiscal 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively. Fiscal 
1995 included expenses incurred in connection with the chief executive 
officer transition totalling approximately $780,000 (or $0.06 per share) and 
to higher levels of legal, insurance, bad debt and certain 
promotional expenses.  The decrease in fiscal 1996 resulted from planned 
reductions in overhead personnel.  Sales and marketing expenses comprise 
slightly more than 50% of selling, general and administrative expenses in 
fiscal 1996 and 1997.
  
Other income consists of earnings on available cash balances. Other income 
varied as a result of changes in cash balances and interest rates from year 
to year.  
  
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  
  
Since its inception in 1985, the Company has financed its operations, working
capital needs and capital expenditures primarily from private placements of 
securities, exercises of stock options, proceeds received from its initial 
public offering in 1986, proceeds received from a public offering of Common 
Stock in November 1993, licensing and technology revenues and more recently 
from sales of products.  Net proceeds received upon issuance of securities 
from inception through March 31, 1997 totalled approximately $40.0 million.  
The Company has no long-term debt.  

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totalled $4.1 million at 
March 31, 1996 and $2.1 million at March 31, 1997, which represented a 
decrease of $2.0 million from 1996 to 1997.  The decrease resulted from 
operating losses and capital expenditures offset in part by net proceeds 
from a private placement of common stock and warrants in December 1996 and 
of long-term debt borrowing from Schering including accrued interest 
which was converted into 487,390 shares of common stock in February 1997.  
In June 1997, the Company completed private placement of its common stock 
and warrants totalling $750,000.

Inventories increased from $1.3 million at March 31, 1996 to $1.7 million at 
March 31, 1997 due to the build-up of inventories to support anticipated future 
product sales and the repurchase of inventories from HMI.

The Company has fixed commitments for facilities rent and equipment leases 
which total approximately $260,000 for fiscal 1998.

The Company expended approximately $1.6 million for capital equipment in 
fiscal 1997.  Substantially all of these expenditures related to ramp-up of 
manufacturing for the Schering product launch. These assets continue to be 
carried at their cost on the Company's balance sheet because the product is 
suitable for other home injection applications which the Company is pursuing. 
The Company expects to expend approximately $50,000 on non-manufacturing 
capital equipment additions in fiscal 1998.

The Company believes that its current cash position and cash received from a 
private placement of common stock and warrants in June 1997, combined with 
revenues and other cash receipts will not be adequate to fund the Company's 
operations through the end of fiscal 1998. The Company has identified a 
number of potential financing sources and is pursuing them aggressively. 
See "Forward Looking Statements." Even if the Company is successful in 
raising additional financing unforeseen costs and expenses or lower than 
anticipated cash receipts from product sales or research and development 
activities could accelerate or increase the financing requirements. The 
Company has been successful in raising additional financing in the past and 
believes that sufficient funds will be available to fund future operations. 
See "Forward Looking Statements."  However, there can be no assurance that 
the Company's efforts will be successful, and there can be no assurance that 
such financing will be available on terms which are not significantly dilutive 
to existing shareholders. Failure to obtain needed additional capital on 
terms acceptable to the Company, or at all, would significantly restrict the 
Company's operations and ability to continue product development and growth 
and materially adversely affect the Company's business.  The Company has no 
banking line of credit or other established source of borrowing.  The Company's 
independent accountants have qualified their opinion with respect to their 
audit of the Company's 1997 consolidated financial statements as the result 
of doubts concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in 
the absence of additional financing.

		 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS  
  
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Bioject Medical 
Technologies Inc:  
  
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bioject   
Medical Technologies Inc. (an Oregon corporation) and subsidiaries as of   
March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of   
operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years   
in the period ended March 31, 1997.  These financial statements are the   
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to   
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  
  
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing   
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to   
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free   
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,   
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.    
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and  
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall   
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a   
reasonable basis for our opinion.  
  
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,   
in all material respects, the financial position of Bioject Medical   
Technologies Inc. and subsidiaries, as of March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the   
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years   
in the period ended March 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted   
accounting principles.  

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the 
Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the 
financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from 
operations and, at March 31, 1997, has an accumulated deficit of $34.3 
million that raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to 
continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regards to these matters 
is also described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any 
adjustments relating to recoverability and classification of asset
carrying amounts that might result should the Company be unable to continue 
as a going concern.

	       BIOJECT MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES  
		   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  
  
1.     THE COMPANY:  
  
The consolidated financial statements of Bioject Medical Technologies Inc.   
and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), include the accounts of Bioject   
Medical Technologies Inc. ("BMT") and its wholly owned subsidiary, 
Bioject Inc. ("BI"). All significant intercompany transactions have been 
eliminated. BMT was incorporated on December 17, 1992 under the laws of the 
State of Oregon for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding common 
shares of Bioject Medical Systems, Ltd. ("BMSL") in exchange for an   
equivalent number of common shares of BMT stock under a plan of U.S.   
reincorporation approved by the Company's shareholders on November 20, 1992.   
BMSL was incorporated on February 14, 1985, under the laws of British   
Columbia, and terminated in July 1996. BI was incorporated on February 8, 
1985, under the laws of the State of Oregon.  
  
The Company commenced operations in 1985 for the purpose of developing,   
manufacturing and distributing a new drug delivery system. Since its   
formation, the Company has been engaged principally in organizational,   
financing, research and development, and marketing activities. In the last   
quarter of fiscal 1993, the Company launched U.S. distribution of its  
Biojector 2000 system primarily to the hospital and large clinic market.  
  
The Company's products and manufacturing operations are subject to extensive   
government regulation, both in the U.S. and abroad. In the U.S., the   
development, manufacture, marketing and promotion of medical devices is   
regulated by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") under the Federal   
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act ("FFDCA"). In 1987, the Company received   
clearance from the FDA under Section 510(k) of the FFDCA to market a hand-  
held CO2-powered jet injection system. In June 1994, the Company received  
clearance from the FDA under 510(k) to market a version of its Biojector   
2000 system in a configuration targeted at high volume injection   
applications.  In March 1997, the Company received a 510(k) clearance from 
the FDA to market a version of its Biojector 2000 with certain additional 
features.
  
Since its inception the Company has incurred operating losses and at March 31, 
1997 has an accumulated deficit of approximately $34.3 million.  The Company's 
revenues to date have been derived primarily from licensing and technology 
fees and more recently from sales of the Biojector 2000 system and Biojector 
syringes to public health clinics and flu immunization programs.  Future 
revenues will depend upon acceptance and use by healthcare providers of the 
Company's jet injection technology. Uncertainties over government regulation 
and competition in the healthcare industry may impact healthcare provider 
expenditures and third party payer reimbursements and, accordingly, the 
Company cannot predict what impact, if any, subsequent healthcare reforms 
might have on its business.  The Company's ability to achieve and sustain 
profitability will depend in part upon the customer acceptance of the 
Biojector 2000 system, sustained product performance, implementing additional 
product cost reductions and attaining revenues sufficient to support 
profitable operations.

The Company's revenues to date have not been sufficient to cover operating 
expenses.  However, the Company believes that if its products achieve market 
acceptance and the volume of sales increase, and its product costs are reduced, 
its cost of goods as a percentage of sales will decrease and eventually the 
Company will generate net income.  The level of sales required to generate 
net income will be affected by a number of factors including the pricing of 
the Company's products, its ability to attain efficiencies that  can 
be attained through volume and automated manufacturing, and the impact of 
inflation on the Company's manufacturing and other operating costs.  There 
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully implement its 
manufacturing cost reduction program or sell its products at prices or in 
volumes sufficient to achieve profitability or offset increase in its costs 
should they occur.

The Company believes that its current cash position and cash received from a 
private placement of common stock and warrants on June 1997 (see note 7), 
combined with revenues and other cash receipts will not be adequate to fund 
the Company's operations through the end of fiscal 1998. The Company has 
identified a number of potential financing sources and is pursuing them 
aggressively. Even if the Company is successful in raising additional financing 
unforeseen costs and expenses or lower than anticipated cash receipts from 
product sales or research and development activities could accelerate or 
increase the financing requirements. The Company has been successful in 
raising additional financing in the past and believes that sufficient funds 
will be available to fund future operations. However, there can be no assurance 
that the Company's efforts will be successful, and there can be no assurance 
that such financing will be available on terms which are not significantly 
dilutive to existing shareholders. Failure to obtain needed additional capital 
on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all, would significantly restrict the 
Company's operations and ability to continue product development and growth 
and materially adversely affect the Company's business.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the 
recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts that might result 
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
  
2.     ACCOUNTING POLICIES:  
  
CASH EQUIVALENTS  
The Company considers cash equivalents to consist of short-term, highly   
liquid investments with an original maturity of less than three months.  
  
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE  
The Company accounts for its investments in marketable securities in 
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 115, 
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (SFAS 115). 
Under provisions of SFAS 115, the Company is required to classify and account 
for its security investments as trading securities, securities available 
for sale or securities held to maturity depending on the Company's intent to 
hold or trade the securities at time of purchase. As of March 31, 1997 and 
1996, all securities held by the Company consisting entirely of short-term 
debt instruments were available for sale and, accordingly, are stated on the 
balance sheet at their fair market values which approximate cost. Realized 
gains or losses are determined on the specific identification method and are 
reflected in the accompanying financial statements. There were no significant 
realized gains or losses for fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995.  
  
INVENTORIES  
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined in   
a manner which approximates the first-in, first out (FIFO) method. Costs   
utilized for inventory valuation purposes include labor, materials and   
manufacturing overhead. Net inventories consist of the following:

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT  
For financial statement purposes, depreciation expense on property and   
equipment is computed on the straight-line method using the following lives:  
  
	  Furniture and Fixtures............................5 years  
	  Machinery and Equipment...........................7 years  
	  Computer Equipment................................3 years  
	  Production Molds..................................5 years  
  
Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the    
shorter of the remaining terms of the lease or the estimated useful lives of   
the assets.  
  
OTHER ASSETS  
Other assets include costs incurred for the application of patents, net of   
amortization on a straight-line basis over 17 years. Accumulated   
amortization totalled $144,713 and $114,713 at March 31, 1997 and 1996,   
respectively. Amortization expense for the years ended March 31, 1997, 1996   
and 1995 totalled $30,000, $20,000 and $31,000 respectively.  
  
ACCOUNTING FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS  
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.   
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived   
Assets To Be Disposed Of"(SFAS 121), which requires the Company to review   
for impairment of its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles   
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying   
amount of an asset might not be recoverable. In certain situations, an  
impairment loss would be recognized. SFAS 121 became effective for the   
Company's year ended March 31, 1997.  The Company has studied the   
implications of SFAS 121 and, based on its evaluation, does not believe
that an adjustment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets is 
necessary.  

REVENUE RECOGNITION FOR PRODUCT SALES  
The Company records revenue from sales of its products upon shipment. In   
fiscal 1997, 1996 and 1995, sales to one customer accounted for 17%, 75% and
74% of net sales of products, respectively. At March 31, 1997, 62% of accounts 
receivable were accounted for by one customer.  
  
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND LICENSING/TECHNOLOGY REVENUES  
Licensing fees are recognized as revenue when due and payable. Product   
development revenue is deferred upon receipt and is recognized as revenue as   
qualifying expenditures are incurred. Expenditures for research and   
development are charged to expense as incurred.  
  
In March 1994, the Company entered into a joint development agreement with   
Schering AG, a major pharmaceutical manufacturer, for the development of an   
application specific self injection system. Under terms of the agreement, 
the Company received a $500,000 licensing fee in April 1994 and has received 
partial funding of product development expenses on an agreed schedule. In 
fiscal 1995, the Company received a total of $1.1 million from the 
pharmaceutical company, composed of $500,000 in licensing fees which were 
recognized as revenue during fiscal 1995 and $600,000 of Phase I product 
development revenues, $444,000 of which were recognized as revenue in fiscal 
1995. In fiscal 1996, the Company received an additional $660,000 and a total 
of $751,000 was recognized as revenue. In fiscal 1997, the Company received 
a final product development payments totalling $349,500 and recognized revenue 
of $414,500.  During fiscal 1997, the Company entered into a supply agreement 
with Schering AG and commenced activities related to full production of the 
self injector.  Schering loaned the Company a total of $1.6 million to purchase 
molds and tooling for production of the product. In January 1997, the Company 
received notice that its contract with Schering AG would be cancelled.  Under 
provisions of the contract, Schering AG had the option of canceling the 
agreement if the FDA required extensive clinical studies beyond an 
originally planned safety study.  Schering AG received a review letter from 
the FDA which would have required Schering to conduct additional material 
clinical studies in order to use non-traditional delivery mechanisms with its 
Betaseron(R) product. Under terms of the contract, Schering was required to 
convert its $1.6 million note due from Bioject into approximately 460,000 
shares of Bioject common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share. 
In addition, $106,000 of accrued interest was converted into approximately 
27,000 shares of Bioject common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per 
share. Schering is obligated to pay Bioject for the cost of product ordered 
through the date of cancellation of the contract.  
  
In January 1995, the Company entered into a joint development agreement with   
Hoffmann-La Roche, a major pharmaceutical manufacturer, for the development   
of application specific products. The Company received a licensing fee   
totalling $500,000 which was recognized as revenue in fiscal 1995. The   
Company is also receiving specified product development fees on an agreed   
upon schedule. In fiscal 1996, the Company received $900,000, of which  
$399,000 was recognized as revenue.  In fiscal 1997, the Company received 
$250,000 in product development fees and recognized revenue of $501,000.

INCOME TAXES  
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of   
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting For Income Taxes (SFAS   
109). Under the liability method specified by SFAS 109, the deferred tax   
assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences   
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as  
measured by the enacted tax rates for the years in which the taxes are   
expected to be paid. At March 31, 1997, the Company had total deferred tax   
assets of approximately $13.0 million, consisting principally of available 
net operating loss carryforwards. No benefit for these operating losses has 
been reflected in the accompanying financial statements as they do not 
satisfy the recognition criteria set forth in SFAS 109. Total deferred tax    
liabilities were insignificant as of March 31, 1997.  
  
As of March 31, 1997, BMT has net operating loss carryforwards of   
approximately $799,000 available to reduce future federal taxable income,   
which expire in 2008 through 2012. BI has net operating loss carryforwards of   
approximately $34 million available to reduce future federal taxable income,   
which expire in 2001 through 2012. Approximately $3.0 million of BI's   
carryforwards were generated as a result of deductions related to exercises   
of stock options. When utilized, this portion of BI's carryforwards, as tax  
effected, will be accounted for as a direct increase to contributed capital   
rather than as a reduction of that year's provision for income taxes. 
The principal differences between net operating loss carryforwards for 
tax purposes and the accumulated deficit result from capitalization of 
certain start-up costs and deductions related to the exercise of stock options 
for income tax purposes.  
  
USE OF ESTIMATES  
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally   
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and   
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at   
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues   
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from   
those estimates.  
  
NET LOSS PER SHARE  
Net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of   
common shares outstanding during the period. The effects of common stock   
equivalents have not been included in the calculation as they would be anti-  
dilutive.

3.     401(K) RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLAN:  
  
The Company has a 401(k) Retirement Benefit Plan for its employees. All   
employees subject to certain age and length of service requirements are   
eligible to participate. The plan permits certain voluntary employee   
contributions to be excluded from the employees' current taxable income   
under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) and regulations  
thereunder. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company amended the plan to   
provide for voluntary employer matches of employee contributions up to 6% of   
salary and for discretionary profit sharing contributions to all employees.   
Such employer matches and contributions may be in either cash or Company   
common stock. For calendar 1996, the Company agreed to match 25% of   
employee contributions up to 6% of salary with Company stock. For calendar 
1997, the Company has agreed to match 37.5% of employee contributions up to 
6% of salary with Company stock.  In fiscal 1997 and 1996, the Company 
recorded an expense of $25,000 and $4,800, respectively, related to voluntary 
employer matches under the 401(k) Plan. The Board of Directors has reserved 
up to 100,000 shares of  common stock for these voluntary employer matches of 
which 31,630 shares have been committed through March 31, 1997.  
  
4.     SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:  
  
PREFERRED STOCK  
The Company has authorized 10 million shares of preferred stock, without par   
value, to be issued from time to time with such designations and preferences   
and other special rights and qualifications, limitations and restrictions   
thereon, as permitted by law and as fixed from time to time by resolution of  
the Board of Directors.  As of March 31, 1997, no preferred shares had been 
issued by the Company.
  
COMMON STOCK  
Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of   
record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. No shares have been   
issued subject to assessment, and there are no preemptive or conversion   
rights and no provision for redemption, purchase or cancellation, surrender   
or sinking or purchase funds. Holders of common stock are not entitled to   
cumulate their shares in the election of directors.  A total of 100,000 shares 
of common stock have been reserved by the Board of Directors for issuance to 
401(k) plan participants (see note 3) of which 31,630 shares have been issued 
through March 31, 1997.
  
ESCROWED SHARES  
As a result of the Company's initial public offering on the Vancouver Stock   
Exchange, 1.5 million shares of the Company had been held in escrow pursuant 
to an Escrow Agreement dated May 30, 1986, among the Company, WAM Partnership   
and the escrow agent, Montreal Trust Company. WAM Partnership was owned by   
Carl E. Wilcox, former Chairman and C.E.O., and J. Thomas Morrow, former  
Director, and managed by Mr. Wilcox. Both Mr. Wilcox and Mr. Morrow are   
founders of the Company. The Escrow Agreement provided that these escrowed   
shares would be released from escrow based on a cash flow formula or, 
alternatively, the shares could be released by making application and 
obtaining consent of the Superintendent of Brokers of British Columbia based 
on demonstrating company value.  Under the escrow agreement, any shares not 
released by July 14, 1996 would be cancelled.
  
In connection with Mr. Wilcox's resignation as chairman and chief executive 
officer of the Company (see Note 6), the Board of Directors granted Mr. Wilcox 
a special power of attorney to exclusively perform all acts necessary to obtain 
extension of the escrow and/or release of the WAM Partnership escrow shares. 

On June 3, 1996, the British Columbia Securities Commission informed the   
Company that its Executive Director (formerly the Superintendent of Brokers)   
consented to the release of all shares originally held in escrow.  This   
means that the 1.5 million shares of common stock which had been held under   
this escrow arrangement are now held by the owners of the shares without   
risk of cancellation and may be sold.  Upon release, approximately 150,000   
of these shares were considered to have been contributed back to the Company   
and reissued to certain former employees in consideration for past services   
rendered on behalf of the Company. The Company recorded the shares as   
contributed capital with a corresponding non-cash charge to compensation  
expense at the fair market value of the stock on the date of issuance.    
Accordingly, a non-cash charge of $120,000 was recorded in the financial   
statements in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.  
  
STOCK OPTIONS  
Options may be granted to directors, officers and employees of the Company   
by the Board of Directors under terms of the Bioject Medical Technologies   
Inc. 1992 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which was approved by the   
Company's shareholders on November 20, 1992 and adopted by the Board   
effective December 17, 1992. Under the terms of the Plan, eligible employees   
may receive statutory and nonstatutory stock options, stock bonuses and   
stock appreciation rights for purchase of shares of the Company's common   
stock at prices and vesting as determined by a committee of the Board.   
Except for options whose terms were extended, options granted under a prior   
plan maintain their previous option price, vesting and expiration dates. As   
amended in fiscal 1995, a total of up to 3,000,000 shares of the Company's   
common stock including options outstanding at the date of initial   
shareholder approval of the Plan may be granted under the Plan. Options 
outstanding at March 31, 1997 expire through March 31, 2005.  
  
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement   
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), which   
establishes a fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based   
compensation plans and requires additional disclosures for those companies   
that elect not to adopt the new method of accounting. The Company has elected 
to continue to account for stock options under APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting   
for Stock Issued to Employees. However, as prescribed by SFAS 123 the Company 
has computed, for pro forma disclosure purposes, the value of all options 
granted during fiscal year 1997 and 1996 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing 
model, using the following weighted average assumptions for grants in 1997 and 
1996:

	 Risk-free interest rate            6%
	 Expected dividend yield            0%
	 Expected life                      1.5 years
	 Expected volatility                47%

The total value of options granted during 1997 and 1996 would be amortized on 
a pro forma basis over the vesting period of the options.  Options generally 
vest equally over three years.  If the Company had accounted for these plans in 
accordance with SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would 
have increased as reflected in the following pro forma amounts 
(in thousands of $):

				 Year ended March 31,                
				    1997    1996

The above determination of proforma expense has been calculated consistent 
with SFAS 123 which does not take into consideration limitations on 
exercisability and transferability imposed by the Company's Stock Incentive 
Plan.  Further, the valuation model is heavily weighted to stock price 
volatility, even with a declining stock price, which tends to increase 
calculated value.  The actual value, if any, and, therefore, imputed 
proforma expense will vary based on the exercise date and the market price 
of  the related common stock when sold.

Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Carl E. Wilcox. In   
consideration for Mr. Wilcox's long service to the Company, the Board   
granted Mr. Wilcox 100,000 shares of common stock valued at $241,000 and   
cash compensation totalling $247,000. The Board agreed to pay Mr. Wilcox 
$20,000 per year for two years under a covenant not-to-compete. The Board also 
vested 200,000 previously granted option shares at $4.00 per share and extended 
the expiration date to January 14, 1998. The Board granted Mr. Wilcox  
a special power of attorney to exclusively perform all acts necessary to   
obtain extension and/or release of the WAM Partnership escrow shares.  
In addition, the Board agreed to pay up to $10,000 of costs associated with 
such extension and/or release. On June 3, 1996, the British Columbia Securities 
Commission informed the Company that release of the escrow shares had been 
granted (see Note 4). The value of the severance agreement totalling $488,000 
was recorded as general and administrative expense in the accompanying 
financial statements in fiscal 1995.

consisting of one share of common stock and one-half warrant for purchase of 
common stock at $.71 per share)for total proceeds of $750,000.  The Company 
has committed to register the $1.7 million shares and, if possible, the common 
shares underlying the 872,000 warrants issued in the private placement on a 
Form S-3 registration statement within 20 days of close of the transaction.
