            CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS


The following Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains various "forward looking
statements" within the meaning of federal securities laws. These forward looking
statements represent management's expectations or beliefs concerning future
events, including statements regarding anticipated product introductions;
changes in markets, customers and customer order rates; changes in third party
reimbursement rates; expenditures for research and development; growth in
revenue; taxation levels; and the effects of pricing decisions. When used in
this 10-Q, the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "estimate" and similar
expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. These
and other forward looking statements made by the Company must be evaluated in
the context of a number of factors that may affect the Company's financial
condition and results of operations, including, but not limited to, the
following:

-    Like many medical device companies, the Company has a large balance of
     uncollected receivables. If it cannot collect an amount of receivables that
     is consistent with historical collection rates, it might be required to
     charge off a portion of uncollected receivables, significantly impacting
     earnings.

-    The Company has incurred a significant amount of indebtedness to finance
     acquired businesses. The interest expense on such indebtedness reduces
     earnings and could cause the Company to be short of cash if its operations
     do not meet expectations.

-    In the United States, the Company's products and services are frequently
     reimbursed by private and public insurers that impose limits on
     reimbursement and strict rules on applications for reimbursement. Changes
     in the rates, eligibility or requirements for reimbursement, or failure to
     comply with reimbursement requirements, could cause a reduction in earnings
     or fines or both.

-    The Company maintains significant amounts of inventory on consignment at
     clinics for distribution to patients. It may not be able to completely
     control losses of this inventory and if inventory losses are not consistent
     with historical experience, the Company might be required to write off a
     portion of the carrying value of inventory.

-    The clinical effectiveness of the Company's electrotherapy products has
     periodically been challenged. Publicity about the effectiveness of
     electrotherapy for pain relief or other clinical applications could
     negatively impact revenue and earnings.

-         The Company formed a subsidiary in the United Kingdom in fiscal 1999
     and acquired a Swiss company in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. These
     European operations may be more difficult to supervise, and may be subject
     to different economic influences than United States operations, and may
     subject the Company to significant exposure from currency fluctuations.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2001


1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The amounts set forth in the preceding financial statements are unaudited as of
and for the periods ended March 1, 2001 and 2000 but, in the opinion of
management, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods
presented. Such results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full
year. The significant accounting policies and certain financial information
which are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, but which are not required for interim
reporting purposes, have been omitted. The accompanying financial statements of
the Company should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2000 included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to
classifications adopted in fiscal year 2001. These reclassifications had no
effect on net income, cash flows or shareholders' equity.

2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On July 16, 1999, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Compex
SA, a Swiss-based medical products company for cash of approximately $11.0
million. The acquisition was financed principally with debt and provided for
additional contingent consideration of up to $2 million based on the performance
of Compex through December 31, 2000. In connection with the acquisition, the
purchase consideration and transaction costs were allocated as follows:


                                                                      
                                Net assets acquired                      $ 1,612,085

                                                                         -----------
                                                                         $13,819,827
                                                                         ===========



Included in goodwill are contingent payments of $1,777,185 and $222,815 made
during fiscal 2000 and 2001, respectively, to the former Compex shareholders.

3. NOTE PAYABLE AND LONG TERM DEBT

In conjunction with its acquisition of Compex SA, the Company entered into a new
$20,000,000 credit facility which provides for both term and revolving
borrowings at varying rates based either on the bank's prime rate or LIBOR. The
initial term loan of $15,000,000 was used to fund the acquisition and repay the
balance of a note and a revolving loan provided under a credit facility with
another bank.




                                       7

Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by substantially all assets of
the Company other than those pledged as collateral on existing lease or mortgage
obligations. There remained $11,247,000 outstanding under the term loan, bearing
interest at 7.44%, at March 31, 2001. There were borrowings of $1,100,000 under
the revolving line of credit as of March 31, 2001, with a weighted average
interest rate of 8.0%.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants in its credit
agreement as of March 31, 2001 and for the period then ended.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



OVERVIEW

The Company designs, manufactures and distributes electrotherapy products used
for pain management, rehabilitation and sports training. Its products are used
in clinical, home health care, sports medicine and occupational medicine
applications. It also distributes other medical products used in related
applications. The Company operates in one business segment, distributing its
products through sales to medical product dealers and distributors, sport shops
and, in the United States, through direct rental or sale to patients.

The direct rental or sale approach involves placing electrotherapy units with
physicians, physical therapists and other health care providers who then refer
those units to patients after determining an appropriate treatment regimen.
Units are left on consignment with the health care providers for such referral.
The Company then bills the patient or the patient's insurance carrier directly
after being notified that a unit has been prescribed and provided to the
patient. The Company takes responsibility for subsequent patient follow-up,
including extension of the rental period, sale of the unit, if appropriate, and
sale of additional supplies required for continued use of the electrotherapy
units. This distribution approach requires the Company to maintain significant
investments in inventories and receivables.

Revenue was $15,172,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, a 9% increase from
$13,950,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2000. Revenue for the nine months
ended March 31, 2001 increased 6% to $45,268,000 from $42,604,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 2000. The increase was primarily attributable to United
States operations where revenue increased 15% in the third quarter and 7% for
the first nine months of fiscal 2001 over the same period in fiscal 2000. The
Company continues its recovery from the impact of a whistleblower lawsuit
disclosed in the third quarter of fiscal 2000, which adversely impacted earnings
growth during the last half of fiscal 2000. Compex accounted for $3,393,000 of
revenue in the third quarter and $11,248,000 for the nine months ended March 31,
2001, compared to $3,624,000 in the third quarter and $10,643,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 2000. Revenue from Compex was lower than expected in the
third quarter of fiscal 2001 due to the effects of a strengthening U.S. dollar
against European currencies and to slower than anticipated orders from a major
customer.

Gross profit was $10,349,000 or 68.2% of revenue for the third quarter and
$31,049,000 or 68.6% of revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2001
compared with $9,808,000 or 70.3% of revenue for the third quarter and
$29,757,000 or 69.8% of revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2000. Cost
of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 included a one-time charge of
$645,000 related to the step-up in basis of inventory recorded in connection
with the Compex acquisition. Without that charge, gross profit would have been
71.3% of revenue for the nine months. The current year reduction in gross profit
resulted primarily from increased focus on sales of Compex sport products at
wholesale prices to retail


                                       10
   11

store outlets, rather than direct to consumers at retail prices. The change in
strategy is expected to expand market penetration.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 2% to $8,048,000 in the
third quarter of fiscal 2001 from $7,888,000 in fiscal 2000. As a percent of
revenue, those expenses decreased from 57% to 53%. For the nine months ended
March 31, 2001, those expenses increased 4% to $23,813,000 from $22,888,000 in
fiscal 2000, but stayed the same as a percentage of revenue at approximately
53%. The reductions as a percent of revenue reflect lower selling expenses
related to the Compex retail sales strategy and certain economies of scale.

Research and development expense increased 45% to $494,000 in the third quarter
of fiscal 2001, compared with $340,000 in fiscal 2000. For the nine months ended
March 31, 2001, these costs increased 41% to $1,334,000 compared to $947,000 in
fiscal 2000. Those increases reflect expanded new product development activities
both in the U.S. where two new products are scheduled for introduction later in
calendar 2001 and in Europe where one new sport product was introduced in April
2001.

Interest expense decreased slightly from $1,165,000 in the nine months ended
March 31, 2000 to $1,026,000 in the current period. The decrease resulted from
slightly lower interest rates and lower outstanding borrowings under the
Company's credit facility.

Operating results for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 include a gain on the
sale of the former Staodyn building in Longmont, Colorado in the amount of
$1,076,000. The Company exercised its option to purchase that building in the
first quarter of fiscal 1999 and closed the purchase and the subsequent sale on
July 7, 1999.

The provision for income taxes was increased from 40% of income before taxes in
the first quarter of fiscal 2001 to 43% for the nine months ended March 31,
2001, compared with 42% in both periods in the prior year. The Company now
operates in various countries in Europe as well as the United States. Some
countries have higher tax rates than the United States as well as different
rules on the deductibility of certain expenses and the availability of certain
credits for taxes paid to other jurisdictions. In addition, the Company has
relocated certain operations and negotiated new agreements with certain European
taxing authorities. The Company believes that 43% is a reasonable estimate of
the effective rate for fiscal 2001 based on most recent estimates of expected
sources of revenue and expenses for the entire year.

As a result of all the above activity, net income increased from $669,000 in the
third quarter of fiscal 2000 to $862,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2001.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2001 net income decreased to $2,806,000 from
$3,336,000 during the same period in fiscal 2000. Diluted earnings per share
increased from $.06 to $.08 for the third quarter and decreased from $.31 to
$.26 for the nine month period. Before the one time gain related to the building
sale and the one time charge related to the Compex inventory step-up, net income
was $3,085,000 of $.29 per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the nine months ended March 31, 2001, the Company's operations provided
cash of $2,451,000, mainly from net income and a reduction in inventory and
accounts receivable of $277,000 and $1,673,000, respectively. These amounts were
offset by an increase in prepaid expenses of $648,000 and decreases of
$1,966,000 in accounts payable and $1,578,000 in accrued liabilities. The
decrease in account payable was due mainly to the payment of $1,677,000 for the
settlement for the Medicare whistleblower suit.

The Company used $743,000 in investing activities in the nine months ended March
31, 2001 for net purchases of property and equipment and a net increase in
clinical and rental equipment.

The Company's financing activities used $2,003,000 of cash during the nine
months ended March 31, 2001, mainly for the repayment of borrowings under the
$20,000,000 credit facility used to finance the Compex acquisition. The Company
initially borrowed $15,000,000 under the credit facility to finance the Compex
purchase and to repay an outstanding note. At March 31, 2001, $11,247,000 is
outstanding under the facility.

Managing receivables represents one of the biggest business challenges to the
Company. The process of determining what products will be reimbursed by third
party payors and the amounts to be paid for those products is very complex and
the reimbursement environment is constantly changing. That risk is spread across
many payors throughout the United States. The determination of an appropriate
reserve for uncollectible accounts at the end of each reporting period includes
various factors including historical trends and relationships and experience
with insurance companies or other third party payors. The Company believes that
the reserve at March 31, 2001 is adequate to cover future losses on its
receivables based on collection history and trends. The provision for
uncollectible accounts recorded in the income statement may continue to
fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter as such trends change. The
reserve was 30.9% of receivables at March 31, 2001 compared to 25.4% at June 30,
2000. The Company believes that the ratio will be favorably impacted in the
future as a result of including receivables from Compex SA and Rehabilicare (UK)
Ltd. which are more traditional trade receivables and not dependent on third
party payors.

The Company has no material commitment for capital expenditures. The Company
believes that available cash and borrowings under its credit line will be
adequate to fund cash requirements for the current fiscal year.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

        The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in the interest rates
        on certain of its outstanding debt. The outstanding loan balance under
        the $20 million credit facility bears interest at a variable rate based
        on the bank's prime rate or LIBOR. Based on the average outstanding bank
        debt for the period ended March 31, 2001, a 100 basis point change in
        interest rates would not change interest expense by a material amount.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

        In late January 2001, Rehabilicare was served with documents in
        connection with a products liability case brought in the California
        Superior Court for Solano County. Until receipt of these documents,
        Rehabilicare had no record of the proceedings. The case involved a
        product liability claim for burns allegedly suffered by plaintiff
        through the use of a stimulation unit that was allegedly manufactured by
        Rehabilicare. The action alleged damages for medical expenses of
        approximately $1,000, for future medical expenses of approximately
        $270,000 and for punitive damages and pain and suffering of
        approximately $2.0 million. The action apparently progressed to the
        entry of a default judgment on January 11, 2001 against Rehabilicare for
        failing to respond to pleadings.

        In March 2001, Rehabilicare moved in Solano County court to set aside
        the default judgment on various grounds, including irregularities in the
        filings and other matters. Because the appeal period with respect to the
        default judgment would have lapsed prior to the hearing on its motion in
        Solano County, Rehabilicare also appealed the judgment to the California
        Court of Appeals. The Solano County Court, however, refused to act on
        Rehabilicare's motion because of the pendency of the appeal.
        Rehabilicare believes the judgment is void or otherwise improper, has
        obtained a stay of execution of the judgment in both California and
        Minnesota and intends to vigorously pursue available actions, including
        its appeal, to set aside the judgment.
