NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

1.    The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include
      Laserscope (the "Company") and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries.
      All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. While the
      financial information in this report is unaudited, in the opinion of
      management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
      adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and
      results of operations as of and for the periods indicated have been
      recorded. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be
      read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the
      notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999 included in the
      Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
      The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2000
      are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year.

2.    Inventory was comprised of the following (in thousands):



                                                                  MARCH 31,           DECEMBER 31,
                                                                    2000                  1999
                                                                 --------              --------
                                                                                 
        Sub-assemblies and purchased parts                       $  4,852              $  7,013

                                                                 --------              --------
                                                                 $  6,756              $ 10,052
                                                                 ========              ========


3.    Basic net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average of
      common stock outstanding. Diluted net income per share is calculated
      using the weighted average of common stock outstanding plus dilutive
      common equivalent shares from stock options and warrants. Options to
      purchase approximately 3,092,000 and 2,621,000 shares of common stock were
      outstanding at March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively and warrants to
      purchase approximately 459,000 shares of common stock were outstanding at
      March 31, 2000. The stock options and warrants outstanding were not
      included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because
      the Company reported losses for the periods that ended at these dates and,
      therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive.

4.    The Company considers cash equivalents to be short-term financial
      instruments that are readily convertible to cash, subject to no more than
      insignificant interest rate risk and that have original maturities of
      three months or less.

      At March 31, 2000 the Company's cash equivalents were in the form of
      institutional money market accounts and totaled $0.5 million. The Company
      had no cash equivalents at December 31, 1999. At March 31, 2000 and
      December 31, 1999, the Company had no investments in debt or equity
      securities.

5.    Total comprehensive loss during the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and 1999
      consisted of (in thousands):

7.    On February 18, 2000, the Company signed an agreement with Wavelight Laser
      Technologie AG (`Wavelight") to sell its interest in NWL Laser Technologie
      GmbH ("NWL"). The sale, which was approved by Wavelight's shareholders on
      March 31, 2000, has an effective date of January 1, 2000. As part of the
      transaction, NWL will continue to distribute Laserscope's products in all
      countries covered by NWL's current distribution channels. The details of
      the transaction are as follows (in thousands):

8.    On January 14, 2000, Laserscope completed the second and final closing of

Laserscope intends to enter additional international markets, requiring
significant management attention and financial resources and further subjecting
the Company to the risks of operating internationally. These risks include
unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, delays resulting from difficulty
in obtaining export licenses for certain technology, customs, tariffs and other
barriers and restrictions, and the burdens of complying with a variety of
foreign laws. The Company is also subject to general geopolitical risks in
connection with its international operations, such as political and economic
instability and changes in diplomatic and trade relationships. The Company
cannot predict whether quotas, duties, taxes or other charges or restrictions
will be imposed by the United States, Japan, countries in the European Union or
other countries upon the import or export of Laserscope's products in the
future, or what effect any such actions would have on its business, financial
condition or results of operations. In addition, fluctuations in currency
exchange rates may negatively affect the Company's ability to compete in terms
of price against products denominated in local currencies. There can be no
assurance that regulatory, geopolitical and other factors will not adversely
affect the Laserscope's operations in the future or require Laserscope to modify
its current business practices.

Other risks are detailed from time to time in Laserscope's press releases and
other public disclosure filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC), copies of which are available upon request from the Company. The
forward-looking statements included herein speak only as of the date hereof.
Laserscope assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements
included herein.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I -- Item 1
of this Quarterly Report and the audited financial statements and notes
contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999 and the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations contained therein.

Net revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 were $8.6 million, a decrease
of approximately 28% from net revenues of $11.9 million in the corresponding
quarter of 1999. The decrease in net revenues during the first quarter of 1999
compared to the first quarter of 1999 is due primarily to the Company
discontinuing sales of NWL products and services, (15%), and, to a lesser
extent, lower sales of Laserscope lasers, (13%). Sales of NWL products and
services contributed revenues of approximately $1.8 million during the first
quarter of 1999. Laserscope sold NWL effective January 1, 2000 but retained
distribution of the Company's products through NWL in Germany.

Revenues from the sales of laser systems were approximately 50% of total net
revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, compared to approximately 60%
of total net revenues during the same period in 1999. In dollars, these revenues
decreased approximately 39% which reflects the discontinued sale of NWL lasers
and lower average unit prices for Laserscope lasers. The lower average unit
prices primarily reflect a higher mix of aesthetic lasers sold in the United
States and Europe in the first quarter of 2000 compared to the first quarter of
1999. The Company expects that its revenue mix trends in all geographic markets
will continue to shift toward lower-priced office-based aesthetic lasers.

Revenues from the sales of disposable supplies and instrumentation comprised
approximately 33% of total net revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2000,
compared to approximately 26% of total net revenues in the corresponding period
in 1999. In dollars, these revenues decreased approximately 9%. The decrease is
due principally to the discontinued sales of NWL instrumentation. Sales of
Laserscope disposable supplies and instrumentation remained at approximately the
same dollar level during the first quarter of 2000 compared to the first quarter
of 1999.

The Company believes that sales of laser equipment in the United States, which
have trended towards lower-priced office lasers for aesthetic procedures and
away from lasers to be used in the hospital for non-aesthetic procedures, has
resulted in lower sales of disposable supplies and instrumentation. Office
lasers used in aesthetic procedures, although carrying one-time sales of
instrumentation, generally do not create a stream of sales of disposable
supplies. The Company expects revenues from the sales of instrumentation and
disposable supplies to depend on the Laserscope's ability to develop and promote
surgical procedures that use these products and to increase its installed base
of systems.

Laserscope's service revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 were 8%
lower than service revenues during the corresponding quarter of 1999. This
decrease is principally attributable to the discontinued sale of NWL services,
partially offset by higher domestic revenues as a result of increased service
contract revenues. The Company believes that future revenues depend on increases
to the installed base of lasers as well as the acceptance of its service
contracts by its customers.

The Company believes that acceptance of lasers in
aesthetic surgery, dermatology, urology and ear, nose and throat surgery will
continue to be important to its business. In addition, the Company expects that
the adoption of photodynamic therapy by medical practitioners will be important.
The Company continues to invest in developing new instrumentation for emerging
surgical applications and in educating surgeons in the United States and
internationally to encourage the adoption of such new applications.


Gross margin as a percentage of net revenues for the quarter ended March 31,
2000 was 45%, compared to 46% for the corresponding quarter in 1999. The
decrease is primarily attributable to product mix shifts toward lower margin
lasers in the United States and Europe. Laserscope expects that gross margin as
a percentage of revenues for the remainder of 2000 may vary from quarter to
quarter as product and distribution mix varies.


Research and development expenses are the result of activities related to the
development of new laser, instrumentation and disposable products and the
enhancement of Laserscope's existing products. In the first quarter of 2000,
amounts spent in research and development decreased approximately 37% compared
to the corresponding quarter of 1999. As a percentage of net revenues, these
expenses were approximately 10% and 12% in the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and
March 31, 1999, respectively. The decrease in spending is due to


                                       9
   10

decreased laser product development activity in the United States, and to a
lesser extent the elimination of NWL research and development expenses. The
Company expects that amounts spent in research and development will remain at
similar levels during the remainder of 2000.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately 29% in the
quarter ended March 31, 2000, compared to the corresponding quarter of 1999. As
a percentage of revenue, these expenses were approximately 38% in the first
quarter of 2000 and 39% in the first quarter of 1999. The decrease in spending
is principally due to expense reduction programs instituted by Laserscope in
third quarter of 1999 and, to a lesser extent, the
elimination of NWL selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company
expects amounts spent in selling, general and administrative expenses to remain
to increase during the remainder of 2000 as variable selling and marketing
expenses increase.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Total assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2000 were $25.3 million and $12.1
million respectively, compared to assets and liabilities of $29.0 million and
$16.9 million at December 31, 1999. Working capital increased $6.8 million from
$6.8 million at December 31, 1999 to $13.6 million at March 31, 2000, while cash
and cash equivalents increased $1.4 million during the period. The net increase
in cash and cash equivalents was due principally to financing activities.

Cash used by operating activities totaled $0.1 million. This was the combined
result of the following uses: Net loss - $0.4 million; reductions in accounts
payable - $0.5 million; reductions in accrued compensation - $0.2 million;
increased accounts receivable - $0.4 million and increased other current assets
- - $0.1 million. These uses were offset partially by in the following: reductions
in inventory - $0.8 million; depreciation and amortization- $0.5 million; and
increased other current liabilities - $0.1 million.

Cash used by investing activities consisted of capital expenditures of $0.2
million and other comprehensive income of $0.1 million.

Cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.9 million and consisted of net
proceeds from the sale of convertible debentures - $2.7 million; net proceeds
from the private placement of common stock - $0.7 million; and proceeds from the
sale of common stock under stock plans $0.5 million. These sources were off set
by the following uses: reductions in short-term bank borrowings - $1.6 million;
cash sold in the sale of NWL - $0.3 million and payments on obligations under
capital leases $0.1 million.

The Company has in place a $6.0 million asset based line of credit based on the
Company's eligible accounts receivable and inventory which expires in September
2000. At March 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $2.8 million in
collateral available against the $2.7 million outstanding and was in compliance
with all financial covenants.

Laserscope anticipates that future changes in cash and working capital will
depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, management's
ability to effectively manage non-cash assets such as inventory and accounts
receivable. The Company competes in a competitive industry where technological
changes and acceptance of new and alternative procedures by its customers is
rapid. Management's ability to anticipate and adapt to these changes will
significantly affect the Company's investment in inventory and the potential for
inventory valuation adjustments. Historically, a source of liquidity for the
Company has been the sale of common stock under stock plans, principally
employee stock option and stock purchase plans. To the extent that the market
price of the common stock discourages the exercise of stock options, this source
of liquidity may be unavailable. At March 31, 2000, options to purchase
approximately 3.1 million shares of Laserscope's common stock were outstanding,
of which approximately 1.4 million were exercisable at a weighted average
exercise price of $2.17. Finally, the level of profitability of the Company will
have a significant effect on cash resources.

From time to time, the Company may also consider the acquisition of, or evaluate
investments in, certain products and businesses complementary to the Company's
business. Any such acquisition or investment may require additional capital
resources. The Company has historically financed acquisitions using its existing
cash resources. While the Company believes its existing cash resources will be
sufficient to fund its operating needs for the next twelve months, additional
financing either through its bank lines of credit or otherwise will be required
for the Company's currently envisioned long term needs.

There also can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available
on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. In addition, future equity
financings could result in dilution to the Company's shareholders, and future
debt financings could result in certain financial and operational restrictions.

ITEM 7A.       QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to a variety of risks, including changes in interest
rates affecting the return on its investments, outstanding debt balances and
foreign currency fluctuations. In the normal course of business, the Company
employs established policies and procedures to manage its exposure to
fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency values.

INTEREST RATE RISK

The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates
primarily to the Company's investment and debt portfolios. The Company has not
used derivative financial instruments in its investment or debt portfolios. The
Company invests its excess cash in money market funds and commercial paper. The
Company's debt financing consist of convertible debentures and bank loans
requiring either fixed or variable rate interest payments. Investments in and
borrowings under both fixed-rate and floating-rate interest-earning instruments
carry a degree of interest rate risk. On the investment side, fixed-rate
securities may have their fair market value adversely affected due to a rise in
interest rates, while floating-rate securities may produce less income than
expected if interest rates fall. In addition, the Company's future investment
income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates or the
Company may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities which have
declined in market value due to changes in interest rates. On the debt side,
borrowings that require fixed-rate interest payments require greater than
current market rate interest payments if interest rates fall, while floating
rate borrowings may require greater interest payments if interest rates rise.
Additionally, the Company's future interest expense may be greater than expected
due to changes in interest rates.

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

International revenues were 41% of total revenues in the quarter ended March 31,
2000, compared to 48% of total revenues during the comparable period in 1999.
International sales are made through international distributors and wholly- and
majority-owned subsidiaries with payments to the Company typically denominated
in the local currencies of the United Kingdom and France, and in U.S. dollars in
the rest of the world. The Company's international business is subject to risks
typical of an international business, including, but not limited to, differing
economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures,
other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility.
Accordingly, the Company's future results could be materially adversely affected
by changes in these or other factors. The effect of foreign exchange rate
fluctuations on the Company in the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was
not material, and the Company does not engage in hedging transactions for
speculative or trading purposes.

PART II.       OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is a party to a number of legal proceedings arising in the ordinary
course of business. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the outcome
of the actions brought against it, the Company believes that the ultimate
resolution of these claims will not ultimately have a material adverse effect on
its financial position or results of operations.

In 1997, a medical malpractice and product liability suit was filed against a
hospital, two physicians and Laserscope relating to a laser manufactured by
Heraeus Surgical, Inc. which was acquired by Laserscope in August 1996. On May
12, 2000, the parties in the case agreed to binding arbitration under which the
maximum award to the plaintiff would be within the Company's insurance policy
limits.
