          The consolidated financial statements of Hologic, Inc. (the Company)
presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of
the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2000,
included in the Company's Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on December 22, 2000.

          The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2001, the consolidated
statements of operations for the three months and six months ended March 31,
2001 and March 25, 2000 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
six months ended March 31, 2001 and March 25, 2000, are unaudited but, in the
opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of results for these interim
periods.

          The results of operations for the three months and six months ended
March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the entire fiscal year ending September 29, 2001.

        Diluted weighted average shares outstanding do not include 2,005 and
2,020 common equivalent shares for the three months and six months ended March
31, 2001, respectively and 1,009 and 1,023 common-equivalent shares for the

stock options granted and not cancelled or expired.

long-term and are included in other assets. As of March 31, 2001, the Company
has not experienced any significant change in the status of these receivables,
however, the economic and currency related uncertainties in these countries may
increase the likelihood of non-payment.

comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. The Company's

   Export sales from the United States to unaffiliated customers primarily in
   Europe, Asia and Latin America during the three months and six months ended
   March 31, 2001 totaled approximately $10,595 and $21,308, respectively; and
   for the three months and six months ended March 25, 2000 totaled
   approximately $6,200 and $13,001, respectively.

   Transfers between the Company and its European subsidiaries are generally
   recorded at amounts similar to the prices paid by unaffiliated foreign
   dealers.  All intercompany profit is eliminated in consolidation.

(8)    Litigation

       In September 1999, Hologic commenced litigation against Fleet Business
Credit Corp. (FBCC), seeking a declaratory judgment with respect to the parties'
respective rights and obligations under a Master Product Financing Agreement
(the Agreement) dated September 25, 1996, as supplemented and amended. FBCC
subsequently commenced a separate action against Hologic in state court in
Illinois to recover damages allegedly arising out of or relating to the
Agreement. Neither Hologic nor FBCC has precisely quantified the alleged
potential liability of Hologic to FBCC and Hologic is vigorously defending
against the claims asserted by FBCC.

       In connection with the Trex Medical acquisition, Hologic assumed
liability for a lawsuit filed by Fisher Imaging against Trex Medical alleging
that the Lorad prone biopsy system infringes upon two Fischer Imaging patents,
subject to indemnification from Trex Medical and its parent, Thermo Electron
Corporation, for any damages up to our adjusted purchase price for the Trex
Medical assets. In connection with this arrangement, Trex Medical is continuing
to defend this lawsuit and has advised the Company that it has meritorious
defenses to Fischer's claims. If Trex Medical is unsuccessful in defending this
lawsuit, the Company may be prohibited from manufacturing and selling the prone-
breast biopsy system without a license from Fischer Imaging and Fischer Imaging
could be awarded significant damages. If a license were required, Hologic cannot
assure that it would be able to obtain one on commercially reasonable terms, if
at all. Moreover, if Fischer Imaging were awarded damages, Hologic cannot assure
that its indemnification from Trex Medical and Thermo Electron would be
sufficient to cover the amount of the award.

        In the ordinary course of business, the Company is party to other
various types of litigation. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to
all claims, and, in its opinion, all litigation currently pending or threatened
will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results
of operations.

(9)     New Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
SFAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -
Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No 133, which defers the
effective date of SFAS No. 133 to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, issued in June 1998, establishes accounting
and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires
that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

        Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB 101), Revenue Recognition, was
issued in December 1999. On March 24, 2000, the SEC deferred implementation of
SAB 101 until the second calendar quarter of 2000, and on June 26, 2000,
implementation was further deferred until the fourth quarter of calendar 2000.
The Company is required to adopt this new accounting principle through a
cumulative charge to the statement of operations, in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, no later than the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company is still in the process of evaluating the
impact this bulletin will have on the consolidated financial statements.

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

                        HOLOGIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Results of Operations


This report contains forward-looking information that involves risks and
uncertainties, including statements about the Company's and its management's
plans, objectives, expectations, beliefs and intentions. Actual results may be
materially different than those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause actual results to materially differ include known and
unknown risks, including, without limitation, the Company's ability to integrate
the operations of its acquired businesses successfully; the unproven nature of
the markets for digital X-ray products; the Company's ability to predict
accurately the demand for its products in these emerging markets and to develop
strategies to address these markets successfully; uncertainties inherent in the
development of new products and the enhancement of existing products, including
technical and regulatory risks and delays; the ability of the Company to reduce
losses or obtain financing to sustain its development and commercialization
efforts; the Company's reliance on one or only a limited number of suppliers for
some key components or subassemblies of our products; the Company's dependence
on third party distributors to commercialize its Direct Radiography products;
risks related to the discontinuance of placements of new bone densitometers
under the Company's strategic alliance program, and Hologic's remarketing
obligations and associated litigation under that program; risk relating to
potential unanticipated costs and disruptions associated with the Company's
recent move of its Fluoroscan mini c-arm manufacturing operations to
Massachusetts; technical innovations that could render products marketed or
under development by Hologic obsolete; competition; reimbursement policies for
bone density testing, vertebral fracture assessment and mammography; and
regulatory approval and market acceptance of drug therapies for osteoporosis.
Other factors that could adversely affect the Company's business and prospects
are described in the Company's reports and registration statements filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our results of operations have and may
continue to be subject to significant quarterly variation.  The results for a
particular quarter may vary due to a number of factors, including those set
forth above.  The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to
release publicly any updates or revisions to any such statements to reflect any
change in the Company's expectations or any change in events, conditions or
circumstances on which any such statement is based.

       Revenues.  Total revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 increased
88% to $43.7 million from $23.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000.
Total revenues for the current six month period increased 98% to $88.3 million
from $44.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2000.  These increases
were primarily due the addition of revenues of $21.6 million and $45.2 million
for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2001, respectively, from
sales of mammography and general radiography products acquired from Trex Medical
in September 2000.  Product revenues in our original businesses of Hologic bone,
Fluoroscan c-arm and DRC digital were $22.0 million in the current quarter
compared to $20.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 and for the
current six month period were $42.8 million compared to $42.0 million for the
first six months of fiscal 2000. The increase in the historical revenue base in
the current quarter is due to an increase in DXA bone densitometer sales, mini
c-arm sales and service revenues. The increase in DXA revenues was primarily due
to higher unit prices from sales of our Delphi systems and, to a lesser extent,
an increase in Delphi upgrade revenues. Partially

                                       11


offsetting these increases was a decrease in Sahara product sales in the current
quarter. The increase in the historical revenue base in the current six month
period was due to increased mini c-arm sales and an increase in revenues from
sales of our digital x-ray products from DRC partially offset by a decrease in
Sahara product sales.

     In the first half of fiscal 2000, our bone assessment revenues included
royalty revenues from Vivid Technologies Inc., relating to the license of our
DXA technology to Vivid for use in baggage inspection equipment. Our bone
assessment revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 includes $2.0 million
that we received as a result of the completion of the sale of a fully paid up
license to Vivid in that quarter. As a result of the sale, our royalty revenues
from Vivid have been eliminated.

     In the first six months of fiscal 2001, approximately 69% of product sales
were generated in the United States, 16% in Europe and 15% in other
international markets.  In the first six months of fiscal 2000, approximately
63% of product sales were generated in the United States, 26% in Europe and 11%
in other international markets.  We expect that foreign sales in the current
fiscal year will continue to account for a significant portion of product sales.
Continued economic and currency related uncertainty in a number of foreign
countries, especially in Asia and Latin America, could reduce our future sales
to these markets.

     Costs and Expenses.  The cost of product sales increased as a percentage
of product sales to 67% in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 from 65% in the
second quarter of fiscal 2000.  The cost of product sales increased as a
percentage of product sales to 69% in the current six month period from 63% in
the same six month period in fiscal 2000.  These costs increased as a percentage
of product sales primarily due to the lower margin recognized on the mammography
and digital radiography products and to increased manufacturing costs related to
DRC, which has significant fixed manufacturing costs and is operating
significantly below manufacturing capacity.  Included in the cost of product
sales for the current six month period for Lorad and the Trex Medical general
radiography products is approximately $800,000 for the impact of the fair market
write-up of acquired inventory on equipment sold.  Absent Direct Radiography
Corp., Lorad and Trex Medical general radiography products, cost of product
sales as a percentage of product sales would have decreased to approximately 52%
and 53% for the current quarter and six month periods, respectively.  The low
sales volume of digital imaging plates, systems and general radiography products
resulted in the under absorption of fixed manufacturing costs.

     Research and development expenses increased 60% to $6.5 million (15% of
total revenues) in the current quarter from $4.0 million (17% of total revenues)
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  For the current six month period,
research and development costs increased 42% to $12.5 million (14% of total
revenues) from $8.8 million (20% of total revenues) for the first six months of
fiscal 2000.  These increases were primarily due to the acquisition of the U.S.
assets of Trex Medical which added approximately $2.6 million and $4.9 million
of research and development expenses in the current quarter and six month
periods, respectively.  Partially offsetting the increases from the Trex
acquisition is a reduction in research and development spending primarily
related to our bone densitometry products.  In addition, in the current quarter
and six month periods, approximately $2.9 million and $5.4 million of the total,
respectively, related to the development of new digital radiography systems and
detectors in connection with DRC.

     Selling and marketing expenses increased 77% to $9.3 million (21% of
product sales) in the current quarter from $5.3 million (25% of product sales)
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. For the current six month period, selling
and marketing expenses increased 65% to $18.4 million (21% of product sales)
from $11.1 million (27% of product sales) for the first six months of fiscal
2000. These increases are primarily due to selling and marketing expenses of
$3.9 million and $7.8 million related to the mammography and general radiography
products acquired from Trex Medical for the current three

                                       12


month and six month periods, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in the
historical business sales commissions primarily due to the lower sales volume in
the primary care market in the United States.

     General and administrative expenses increased 22% to $5.8 million (13% of
total revenues) in the current quarter from $4.8 million (21% of total revenues)
in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. During the first six months of fiscal
2001, general and administrative expenses increased 42% to $11.0 million (12% of
total revenues) from $7.8 million (17% of total revenues) in the first six
months of fiscal 2000. These increases, in absolute dollars, were primarily due
to the addition of approximately $2.6 million and $5.1 million of general and
administrative expenses related to the acquired Trex Medical businesses in the
current quarter and six month periods, respectively. As part of our ongoing
efforts to streamline operations, we recently completed the move of our
Fluoroscan operations from our facility in Northbrook, Illinois to our corporate
headquarters in Bedford, Massachusetts. We believe that we will incur
approximately $500,000 in expenses in the third quarter in connection with this
move. Longer term, we believe that the move will result in operating
efficiencies and reduced overhead for the Fluoroscan operations.

     Total costs and expenses related to DRC totaled approximately $8.8 million
and $17.3 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2001,
respectively. We expect to continue to incur significant costs and expenses at
DRC for the foreseeable future as efforts are placed on developing and
commercializing our digital radiography systems.

     Interest Income. Interest income decreased to $300,000 in the current
quarter from $1.0 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2000 and decreased to
$600,000 in the current six month period from $1.9 million in the comparable
period in fiscal 2000. These decreases were due to a lower investment base than
in the prior year, primarily due to the use of cash for the Trex Medical
acquisition during fiscal 2000 and our continuing investment in research and
development of digital radiography products.

     Other Expense.  We incurred other expense of approximately $1.0 million
and $44,000, for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively.  For
the first six months of fiscal 2001 and 2000, we incurred other expense of $1.2
million and $75,000, respectively.  In the current fiscal year, these expenses
are primarily due to interest costs of approximately $700,000 per quarter on the
$25 million note payable issued in connection with the Trex Medical acquisition.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, these costs were partially offset by
insurance proceeds received in excess of cost related to storm damage at
Fluoroscan last year.  In fiscal 2000, these expenses primarily included foreign
currency transaction losses and interest costs on a bank line of credit used by
our European subsidiaries to borrow funds in their local currencies to pay for
intercompany sales, thereby reducing the foreign currency exposure on those
transactions.  To the extent that foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate in
the future, we may be exposed to continued financial risk.  Although we have
established a borrowing line of credit denominated in the two foreign
currencies, the French Franc and the Belgian Franc, in which the subsidiaries
currently conduct business to minimize this risk, we cannot assure that we will
be successful or can fully hedge our outstanding exposure.

     Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes.  In fiscal 2000, the Company had a
benefit for income taxes as a result of the loss during the period. The Company
believes the related deferred tax asset will be realizable in the future. The
effective tax rate for the current quarter and six month periods reflects the
establishment of a valuation allowance for the tax benefit associated with

Liquidity and Capital Resources

       At March 31, 2001, we had approximately $41.2 million of working capital
and our cash and cash equivalents totaled $16.2 million. Our cash and cash
equivalents balance decreased approximately $6.6 million since September 30,
2000 as the net loss of $14.7 million was partially offset by an increase in
cash from operating activities including non-cash charges for depreciation and
amortization of $4.8 million plus changes in our current assets and liabilities,
which resulted in net cash used in operating activities of $5.8 million. Cash
provided by operations due to changes in our current assets and liabilities
included decreases in accounts receivable of $5.2 million and inventory of $3.8
million. These sources of cash were partially offset by a decrease in accrued
expenses of $4.3 million. In addition, our cash flows from other activities
included purchases of property and equipment of $2.0 million which consisted
primarily of computers and information systems equipment and building
improvements and an increase in borrowings under our European line of credit of
$1.2 million.

       We finance some sales to Latin America over a two-to-three year time-
frame.  At March 31, 2001, we had total accounts receivable outstanding of
approximately $3.4 million relating to these sales, of which approximately
$545,000 were long-term and included in other assets.  As of March 31, 2001, we
have not experienced any significant write-offs of these receivables, however,
the economic and currency related uncertainties in these countries may increase
the likelihood of non-payment.

       In September 2000, we purchased substantially all of the medical imaging
assets of Trex Medical for approximately $30 million in cash and an 11.5%
promissory note in the principal amount of $25 million with accrued interest
first payable on September 13, 2001 and semi-annually thereafter.  The entire
principal balance is due on September 13, 2003.  The promissory note is secured
by our real property in Danbury, Connecticut and Bedford, Massachusetts.

       In connection with a fee-per-scan program offered for our DXA bone
densitometers, we entered into a remarketing agreement whereby we have agreed to
perform certain remarketing activities and to cover certain losses incurred by
the leasing company up to 10% of the total fee-per-scan contracts funded.  Under
this strategic alliance program, we installed approximately $60.6 million in
units since 1996.  As of March 31, 2001, approximately 14% of these systems were
awaiting remarketing after having been returned, net of remarketed or converted
units.  This fee-per-scan program was terminated in February 1999.  The leasing
company purchased all the DXA densitometers covered under these contracts from
us.  We reserved for potential losses under these contracts during the fee-per-
scan program term by deferring revenue of an amount equal to 10% of the
contracts funded.  We are in litigation that we initiated with the leasing
company through a declaratory judgement action regarding the extent of our
respective obligations under this contract. Under a separate but related action,
the leasing company is seeking unspecified compensatory damages and other
relief. We believe that we have meritorious defenses and are vigorously
defending ourselves. Nevertheless, litigation can be expensive and time
consuming. While we believe that the outcome will not have a material adverse
effect on our business, we cannot guarantee the outcome of this litigation. An
unfavorable outcome or prolonged litigation could materially harm our business,
results of operations or financial condition.

       In connection with our Trex Medical acquisition, we assumed liability for
a lawsuit filed by Fisher Imaging against Trex Medical alleging that the Lorad
prone biopsy system infringes upon two Fischer Imaging patents, subject to
indemnification from Trex Medical and its parent, Thermo Electron Corporation,
for any damages up to our adjusted purchase price for the Trex Medical assets.
In connection with this arrangement, Trex Medical is continuing to defend this
lawsuit. If Trex Medical is unsuccessful in defending this lawsuit, we may be
prohibited from manufacturing and selling the prone-breast biopsy system without
a license from Fischer Imaging and Fischer Imaging could be awarded significant
damages. If a license were required, we cannot assure that we would be able to
obtain one

                                       14


on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Moreover, if Fischer Imaging were
awarded damages, we cannot assure that our indemnification from Trex Medical and
Thermo Electron would be sufficient to cover the amount of the award.

     Except as set forth above, we do not have any significant capital
commitments. We are working on several projects, with an emphasis on direct
radiography plates and systems.  We believe that we may require additional funds
in order to complete the development, conduct clinical trials and achieve
regulatory approvals of our direct radiography and other products under
development over the next several years. Moreover, we may require additional
funds for the working capital to commence the manufacture and marketing of these
new products in commercial quantities, if and when approved or cleared by the
regulatory authorities.  As a result, we anticipate that we will be required to
reduce our losses or obtain additional funding to support these efforts.
Failure to obtain such funding could result in the delay or limitation of our
ongoing research and development projects.  We are reviewing various
alternatives to obtain additional funding, including the sale and lease-back of
one of our owned facilities, working capital financing and possible strategic
alliances to help support our ongoing research and development costs.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

           Financial Instruments, Other Financial Instruments, and Derivative
Commodity Instruments. SFAS No. 107, Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial
Instruments, requires disclosure about fair value of financial instruments.
Financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, short and long-term
investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt obligations. The
fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying amount.

     Primary Market Risk Exposures.  Our primary market risk exposures are in
the areas of interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk.  We
incur interest expense on loans made under a line of credit at the Europe
Interbank Offered Rate.  At March 31, 2001, our outstanding borrowings under the
line of credit were approximately $1.6 million.

     Substantially all of our sales outside the United States are conducted in
U.S. dollar denominated transactions.  We operate two European subsidiaries
which incur expenses denominated in local currencies.  However, we believe that
these operating expenses will not have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations or financial condition.
