results for the six months ended December 31, 2002 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30,

The balance sheet at June 30, 2002 has been derived from the audited

5. Loans to Affiliates
---------------------
Hearing Innovations, Inc.
-------------------------
During fiscal 2003, the Company entered into seven loan agreements whereby
Hearing Innovations, Inc. ("Hearing Innovations") is required to pay the
Company an aggregate amount of $159,666 due November 30, 2003. All notes
bear interest at 8% per annum. The notes are secured by a lien on all of
Hearing Innovations' right, title and interest in accounts receivable,
inventory, property, plant and equipment and processes of specified
products whether now existing or arising after the date of these
agreements. The loan agreements contain warrants to acquire 159,666 shares
of Hearing Innovations common stock, at the option of the Company, at a
cost of $.10 to $1.00 per share. These warrants, which are deemed nominal
in value, expire in October 2005. The Company recorded an allowance against
the entire balance of $159,666 for the above loans. The related expense has
been included in loss on impairment of investments in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations. The Company believes the loans and
related interest are impaired since the Company does not anticipate that
these loans will be paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the
loan agreements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
================================================
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Six Months Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001.
NET SALES: Net sales of the Company's medical devices and industrial products
-----------
increased $858,777 to $15,184,835 for the six months ended December 31, 2002
from $14,326,058 for the six months ended December 31, 2001. This difference in
net sales is due to an increase in sales of medical devices of $1,407,479 offset
by lower industrial products sales of $548,702. The increase in sales of medical
devices is due to an increase in sales of diagnostic medical devices of $945,715
and an increase of $461,764 in sales of therapeutic medical devices, both due to
increased customer demand. The decrease in industrial products is due to
decreased wet scrubber sales of $999,413, a decrease in ultrasonic sales of
$93,963 and a decrease in ductless fume enclosure sales of $387,411 primarily
offset by an increase in Labcaire sales of $932,085. Wet scrubber sales
continue to be adversely affected by the downturn of the semi-conductor market.
The decrease in fume enclosure and ultrasonic sales is due to customer demand
and current economic conditions for such products. The increase in Labcaire
sales is primarily due to the product demand of the new Guardian product
introduced in December 2001, which is currently compliant with the new United
Kingdom standards for such products.
GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit decreased to 41.9% for the six months ended December
--------------
31, 2002 from 45.4% for the six months ended December 31, 2001. The decrease in
gross profit is predominantly due to the unfavorable mix of high and low margin
product deliveries for industrial products, primarily ductless fume enclosures
and ultrasonic products and the reduced revenue volume for industrial products.
SELLING EXPENSES: Selling expenses decreased $24,925 to $2,032,563 for the six
------------------
months ended December 31, 2002 from $2,057,488 for the six months ended December
31, 2001. Medical device selling expenses increased $181,635 predominantly due
to additional sales and marketing efforts for diagnostic medical devices.
Industrial selling expenses decreased $206,560 predominantly due to a decrease
in fume enclosure, ultrasonic and wet scrubber commissions and wet scrubber
marketing expenses.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses
--------------------------------------
increased $146,421 from $3,005,710 in the six months ended December 31, 2001 to
$3,152,131 in the six months ended December 31, 2002. The increase is
predominantly due to an increase in general and administrative expenses relating
to severance costs for Labcaire personnel partially offset by lower travel and
stockholder relations expenses of approximately $36,000 and $10,000,
respectively.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES: Research and development expenses increased
------------------------------------
$51,691 from $964,197 for the six months ended December 31, 2001 to $1,015,888
for the six months ended December 31, 2002. During the first and second quarter
of fiscal 2003, the Company funded $100,000 to Focus Surgery, Inc. ("Focus
Surgery") to start research and development for the treatment of kidney tumors
utilizing high intensity focused ultrasound technology. During the second
quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company was reimbursed from two customers certain
product development expenditures incurred, in the amount of approximately
$164,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
============================================================
LITIGATION (RECOVERY) SETTLEMENT EXPENSES: The Company recorded a reversal of
---------------------------------------------
the litigation settlement during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2003 of
$152,628, which represents the sale of Lysonix 2000 units by Mentor Corporation
under our manufacturing and distribution agreement, that was previously reserved
for. Accordingly, the Company recorded a reversal of the litigation settlement
of $152,628. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE): Other income during the six months ended December 31,
-------------------------
2002 was $20,332. During the six months ended December 31, 2001, other income
was $84,755. The decrease of $64,423 was principally due to a decrease in loss
on impairment of investments of $344,710, offset by lower interest income of
$203,525 and reduced royalty income of $192,492.
INCOME TAXES: The effective tax rate is 55.5% for the six months ended December
--------------
31, 2002 as compared to an effective tax rate of 63.7% for the six months ended
December 31, 2001. The current effective tax rate is a mixture of the Labcaire
tax expense offset by domestic entities benefits, which is offset in part by a
valuation allowance. The Company recorded a valuation allowance in the amount
of $75,516 and $211,380 for the six months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001,
respectively, against the deferred tax asset relating to the loss on the loans
and debentures issued by Hearing Innovations because the Company does not
anticipate capital gains to offset the capital losses. The valuation allowance
was recorded in accordance with the provisions of FASB Statement No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes".
Three Months Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001.
NET SALES: Net sales of the Company's medical devices and industrial products
-----------
increased $670,976 to $8,174,513 for the three months ended December 31, 2002
from $7,503,537 for the three months ended December 31, 2001. This difference
in net sales is due to an increase in sales of medical devices of $980,945
offset by lower industrial products sales of $309,969. The increase in sales of
medical devices is due to an increase in sales of diagnostic medical devices of
$561,537 and an increase of $419,408 in sales of therapeutic medical devices,
both due to increased customer demand. The decrease in industrial products is
due to decreased wet scrubber sales of $253,379, a decrease in ductless fume
enclosure sales of $471,567 and a decrease in ultrasonic sales of $194,037
primarily offset by an increase in Labcaire sales of $609,014. Wet scrubber
sales continue to be adversely affected by the downturn of the semi-conductor
market. The decrease in fume enclosure and ultrasonic sales is due to customer
demand and current economic conditions for such products. The increase in
Labcaire sales is primarily due to the product demand of the new Guardian
product introduced in December 2001, which is currently compliant with the new
United Kingdom standards for such products.
GROSS PROFIT: Gross profit decreased to 41.7% for the three months ended
--------------
December 31, 2002 from 44.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2001. The
decrease in gross profit is predominantly due to the unfavorable mix of high and
low margin product deliveries for industrial products, primarily ultrasonic
products and the reduced revenue volume for industrial products. The decrease
is offset by an increase in gross profit of diagnostic medical devices.

SELLING EXPENSES: Selling expenses increased $69,417 to $1,096,960 for the three
-----------------
months ended December 31, 2002 from $1,027,543 for the three months ended
December 31, 2001. Medical device selling expenses increased $165,929
predominantly due to additional sales and marketing efforts for diagnostic
medical devices. Industrial selling expenses decreased $96,512 predominantly
due to a decrease in fume enclosure, ultrasonic and wet scrubber commissions and
wet scrubber marketing expenses offset by an increase in marketing efforts by
Labcaire.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses
--------------------------------------
increased $114,080 from $1,518,178 in the three months ended December 31, 2001
to $1,632,258 in the three months ended December 31, 2002. The increase is
predominantly due to an increase in general and administrative expenses relating
to severance costs for a Labcaire executive partially offset by lower
stockholder relations expenses of approximately $15,000.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES: Research and development expenses decreased
------------------------------------
$28,380 from $504,942 for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $476,562
for the three months ended December 31, 2002. During second quarter of fiscal
2003, the Company funded $50,000 to Focus Surgery to start research and
development for the treatment of kidney tumors utilizing high intensity focused
ultrasound technology. During the second quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company
was reimbursed from two customers certain product development expenditures
incurred, in the amount of approximately $164,000.
LITIGATION (RECOVERY) SETTLEMENT EXPENSES: The Company recorded a reversal of
---------------------------------------------
the litigation settlement during the second quarter of fiscal 2003 of $25,326,
which represents the sale of Lysonix 2000 units by Mentor Corporation under our

Accordingly, the Company recorded a reversal of the litigation settlement of
$25,326. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE): Other income during the three months ended December 31,
------------------------
2002 was $5,221. During the three months ended December 31, 2001, other income
was $101,855. The decrease of $96,634 was principally due to a decrease in loss
on impairment of investments of $35,259, offset by lower interest income of
$95,688 and reduced royalty income of $21,782.
INCOME TAXES: The effective tax rate is 58.2% for the three months ended
--------------
December 31, 2002 as compared to an effective tax rate of 37.9% for the three
months ended December 31, 2001. The current effective tax rate is a mixture of
the Labcaire tax expense offset by domestic entities benefits, which is offset
in part by a valuation allowance. The Company recorded a valuation allowance in
the amount of $31,590 and $46,410 for the three months ended December 31, 2002
and 2001, respectively, against the deferred tax asset relating to the loss on
the loans and debentures issued by Hearing Innovations because the Company does
not anticipate capital gains to offset the capital losses. The valuation
allowance was recorded in accordance with the provisions of FASB Statement No.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
============================================================
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
General: Financial Reporting Release No. 60, which was released by the
--------
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in December 2001, requires all
companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods
used in the preparation of the financial statements. Note 1 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002 includes a summary of the Company's
significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of its
financial statements. The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial
condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial
statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an on-going
basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related
to bad debts, inventories, goodwill, property, plant and equipment and income
taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience
and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions. The Company considers certain accounting policies
related to allowance for doubtful accounts, inventories, property, plant and
equipment, goodwill and income taxes to be critical policies due to the
estimation process involved in each.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The Company's policy is to review its
-----------------------------------
customers' financial condition prior to extending credit and, generally,
collateral is not required. The Company utilizes letters of credit on foreign
or export sales where appropriate.
Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out)
------------
or market and consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods.
Management evaluates the need to record adjustments for impairments of inventory
on a quarterly basis. The Company's policy is to assess the valuation of all
inventories, including raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment are recorded at
---------------------------------
cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line
method over estimated useful lives ranging from 1 to 5 years. Depreciation of
the Labcaire building is provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of 50 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over
the life of the lease or the useful life of the related asset, whichever is
shorter. The Company's policy is to periodically evaluate the appropriateness
of the lives assigned to property, plant and equipment and to make adjustments
if necessary.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
=========================================================
Goodwill: In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
---------
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") Nos. 141 ("SFAS 141") and
142 ("SFAS 142"), "Business Combinations" and "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets," respectively. SFAS 141 replaces Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
Opinion 16 "Business Combinations" and requires the use of the purchase method
for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 requires
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives to no longer be
amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually and whenever
events or circumstances occur that indicate goodwill might be impaired. With
the adoption of SFAS 142, as of July 1, 2001, the Company reassessed the useful
lives and residual values of all acquired intangible assets to make any
necessary amortization period adjustments. Based on that assessment, only
goodwill was determined to have an indefinite useful life and no adjustments
were made to the amortization period or residual values of other intangible
assets. SFAS 142 provides a six-month transitional period from the effective
date of adoption for the Company to perform an assessment of whether there is an
indication that goodwill is impaired. To the extent that an indication of
impairment exists, the Company must perform a second test to measure the amount
of impairment. The second test must be performed as soon as possible, but no
later than the end of the fiscal year. Any impairment measured as of the date
of adoption will be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. The Company performed the first test and determined that
there is no indication that the goodwill recorded is impaired and, therefore,
the second test was not required. The Company also completed its annual
goodwill impairment tests for fiscal 2002 in the fourth quarter. There were no
indications that goodwill recorded was impaired.
Income Taxes: Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
--------------
"Accounting for Income Taxes". Under this method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets
and liabilities and their respective tax bases, operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Working capital at December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002 was $13,545,504 and
$11,854,281, respectively. In the six months ended December 31, 2002, cash
provided by operations totaled $308,286. This was primarily due to the cash
paid for inventory purchased for unshipped orders offset by the receipt of a
portion of prepaid income taxes. In the six months ended December 31, 2002,
cash used in investing activities was $659,085, which primarily consisted of the
purchase of Labcaire stock, the purchase of property, plant and equipment during
the regular course of business and of loans made to Hearing Innovations. In the
six months ended December 31, 2002, cash provided by financing activities was
$620,566 which primarily consisted of proceeds from the exercise of stock
options and short-term borrowings offset by principal payments on capital lease
obligations.
16
MISONIX, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
=========================================================
Hearing Innovations, Inc.
---------------------------
During fiscal 2003, the Company entered into seven loan agreements whereby
Hearing Innovations is required to pay the Company an aggregate amount of
$159,666 due November 30, 2003. All notes bear interest at 8% per annum. The
notes are secured by a lien on all of Hearing Innovations' right, title and
interest in accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and
processes of specified products whether now existing or arising after the date
of these agreements. The loan agreements contain warrants to acquire 159,766
shares of Hearing Innovations common stock, at the option of the Company, at a
cost of $.10 to $1.00 per share. These warrants, which are deemed nominal in
value, expire in October 2005. The Company recorded an allowance against the
entire balance of $159,666 and accrued interest for the above loans. The
related expense has been included in loss on impairment of investments in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company believes the
loans and related interest are impaired since the Company does not anticipate
that these loans will be paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the
loan agreements.
Revolving Credit Facilities
-----------------------------
On July 1, 2002, Labcaire replaced its bank overdraft facility with HSBC Bank
plc with a debt purchase agreement with Lloyds TSB Commercial Finance. The
amount of this facility is approximately $1,384,000 ( 950,000) and bears
interest at the bank's base rate plus 1.75% and a service charge of .15% of
sales invoice value. The agreement expires on June 28, 2003 and covers all
United Kingdom and European sales.
Labcaire
--------
In October 2002, under the terms of the Labcaire Agreement (as discussed in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002), the
Company paid $232,394 for 9,286 shares (2.70%) of the outstanding common stock
of Labcaire bringing the acquired interest to 100%. This represents the fiscal
2003 buy-back, as defined in the Labcaire Agreement.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
----------------------------------
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Statement
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS
144"), which supersedes both FASB Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of"
("SFAS 121") and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30,
"Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions" ("Opinion 30"), for the disposal of a segment of a
business (as previously defined in that Opinion). SFAS 144 retains the
fundamental provisions in SFAS 121 for recognizing and measuring impairment
losses on long-lived assets held for use and long-lived assets to be disposed of
by sale, while also resolving significant implementation issues associated with
SFAS 121. For example, SFAS 144 provides guidance on how a long-lived asset
that is used as part of a group should be evaluated for impairment, establishes
criteria for when a long-lived asset is held for sale, and prescribes the
accounting for a long-lived asset that will be disposed of other than by sale.
SFAS 144 retains the basic provisions of Opinion 30 on how to present
discontinued operations in the income statement but broadens that presentation
to include a component of an entity (rather than a segment of a business).
Unlike SFAS 121, SFAS 144 does not address the impairment of goodwill. Rather,
goodwill is evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets".
17
MISONIX, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
=========================================================
The Company is required to adopt SFAS 144 no later than the fiscal year
beginning after December 15, 2001. In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, the
Company adopted SFAS 144 for long-lived assets held for use. The adoption of
SFAS 144 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements
because the impairment assessment under SFAS 144 is largely unchanged from SFAS
121. The provisions of the Statement for assets held for sale or other disposal
generally are required to be applied prospectively after the adoption date to
newly initiated disposal activities. Therefore, management cannot determine the
potential effects that adoption of SFAS 144 will have on the Company's financial
statements.
Forward Looking Statements: This report contains certain forward looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section
21E of the Exchange Act, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors
created thereby. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying
the forward looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the
assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, there can be no assurance that
the forward looking statements contained in this report will prove to be
accurate. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results
specifically discussed in the forward looking statements include, but are not
limited to, the absence of anticipated contracts, higher than historical costs
incurred in performance of contracts or in conducting other activities, product
mix in sales, results of joint venture and investment in related entities,
future economic, competitive and market conditions, and the outcome of legal
proceedings as well as management business decisions.

MISONIX, INC.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Market Risk:
The principal market risks (i.e. the risk of loss arising from adverse changes
in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are interest rates
on short-term investments and foreign exchange rates, which generate translation
gains and losses due to the English Pound to U.S. Dollar conversion of Labcaire.
Foreign Exchange Rates:
Approximately 24% of the Company's revenues in the first and second quarters of
fiscal 2003 were received in English Pounds currency. To the extent that the
Company's revenues are generated in English Pounds, its operating results are
translated for reporting purposes into U.S. Dollars using rates of 1.57 and 1.46
for the six months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. A
strengthening of the English Pound, in relation to the U.S. Dollar, will have
the effect of increasing its reported revenues and profits, while a weakening of
the English Pound will have the opposite effect. Since the Company's operations
in England generally sets prices and bids for contracts in English Pounds, a
strengthening of the English Pound, while increasing the value of its UK assets,
might place the Company at a pricing disadvantage in bidding for work from
manufacturers based overseas. The Company collects its receivables in the
currency the subsidiary resides in. The Company has not engaged in foreign
currency hedging transactions, which include forward exchange agreements.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
-----------------------------------------------------
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure the reliability of
financial statements and other disclosures included in this report. Within the

upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective
and timely in alerting them to material information required to be included in
the Company's periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
-------------------------------
There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the
date the Company carried out its evaluation.
