(CAS) was organized in 1984 primarily to serve neonatal and pediatric units in hospitals. Today, CAS is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and distributing diagnostic equipment and medical products for use by adults and children in many areas of the health care industry. The Company has developed and is manufacturing a full line of non-invasive blood pressure monitors, blood pressure cuffs for both adult and neonatal patients, silver/silver chloride electrodes for neonatal hospital intensive care units, and a line of disposable products for neonatal use. These products are being sold by the Company directly through its own sales force via distributors and pursuant to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) agreements in Europe and the United States. The Company has agreements to supply its blood pressure monitors, cuffs and electrodes to companies for distribution in major segments of the international market. The Company also has OEM agreements to supply custom versions of its blood pressure measuring technology in the form of plug-in modules for patient monitoring systems. The Company has several other products in various stages of development which it believes are applicable to both adult and neonatal/pediatric medicine. Narrative Description of Business Principal Products and Services OscilloMate Blood Pressure Monitors The Company manufactures a complete line of state-of-the-art blood pressure monitors which it has developed. Distribution is to the hospital and professional markets through its sales force and distributors, and through international distributors and OEM agreements. Pedisphyg, Safe-Cuff, Tuff-Cuff and PAPERCUFF Blood Pressure Cuffs The Company manufactures and sells complete lines of disposable and multi-use blood pressure cuffs for hospital use. These cuffs are based on design criteria developed from scientific studies to ensure the highest degree of accuracy. They can be used with all of the blood pressure monitors currently available in hospitals, thus permitting hospitals to standardize with one company for blood pressure cuffs. Klear-Trace Electrodes The Company manufactures and sells prewired, X-ray translucent electrocardiographic electrodes. They utilize a conductive solid-gel adhesive that allows them to remain on the patient for extended periods of time without causing skin irritation. NeoGuard Reflectors, Klear-Temp Disposable Temperature Probes The Company manufactures and sells thermal reflectors to shield temperature probes while in use within radiant warmers. They perform an important role in maintaining the proper thermal environment for neonates while assuring that no skin irritation takes place. Klear-Temp disposable skin temperature probes are designed to be a standard replacement part in all incubators and radiant warmers. NeoGuard Limboard Arm Boards The Company manufactures and sells a line of neonatal arm boards used to immobilize and support intravenous sites with minimal patient skin trauma. The electrodes, arm boards, and reflectors utilize a polymeric solid gel adhesive to minimize damage to neonatal skin. Sales and Marketing The Company conducts its sales in the domestic hospital market by means of exclusive distributors managed by full time sales managers. Sales to emergency medical services are managed nationwide by a single company sales manager. OEM sales and international sales are conducted by personnel located within the Company. Domestic sales are conducted by 25 distributors across the country each of whom has exclusive sales rights in a limited geographic area. The Company has sales agreements with several distributors internationally. These agreements provide for distribution of products within an assigned territory. Other agreements are being negotiated to allow for expanded international distribution. The Company sells its non-invasive blood pressure technology, in the form of sub-assemblies to be joined to multi-parameter hospital monitors, to several firms operating on both a domestic and international basis. The Company is in the process of negotiating other agreements for the use of its technology as components in other medical monitoring systems. Financial Information Relating to Sales Year Ended December 31, 1995 1994 1993 Domestic Sales $4,273,483 $3,431,374 $3,529,335 Export (Including Licensing Revenues) 2,155,748 1,463,974 1,516,524 _________ _________ _________ $6,429,231 $4,895,348 $5,045,859 _________ _________ _________ Competition The Company competes in the hospital market where there are many suppliers with greater financial and personnel resources with full service commodity products and dedicated selling capability. Neonatal and pediatric intensive care units are such areas. Here, the Company has been supplying competitively priced, uniquely designed products responsive to this market in which no major company currently focuses its total effort. In both the hospital and emergency medical service markets, the Company's line of non-invasive blood pressure monitoring equipment has significant advantages over competitive products. It is compact, portable, lightweight and user-friendly. The monitors maintain a high professional standard of accuracy and quality in demanding environments such as those encountered in hospital and transport situations. With respect to all of its products, the Company competes on the basis of price, features, product quality, promptness of delivery and customer service. Customers During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company had sales to one customer which in the aggregate accounted for approximately 12%, 13% and 13% of sales, respectively. Research and Development In 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company spent approximately $405,000, $335,000 and $329,000, respectively, on activities relating to the development of new products and the improvement of existing products. The Company is building on its base of non-invasive blood pressure technology by developing a family of next-generation patient-monitoring equipment. Employees As of December 31, 1995, the Company had 46 employees of whom 44 were full-time. The Company has no collective bargaining agreements and believes that relations with its employees are good. The Company maintains employee benefit plans providing for disability income, life insurance and medical and hospitalization coverage. The Company sponsors a 401(K) benefit plan for its employees which generally allows participants to make contributions by salary deductions up to allowable internal revenue service limits on tax-deferred basis and discretionary contributions by the Company. The Company did make discretionary contributions in 1995. Government Regulation Medical products of the type currently being marketed and under development by the Company are subject to regulation under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (the "FDA Act") as amended in the Medical Device Amendments of 1976 (the "1976 Amendments") and the 1990 "Safe Medical Devices Act", as well as additional regulations promulgated thereto. Under the 1976 Amendments, the Company must be a registered device manufacturer and must comply with Good Manufacturing Practice Regulations for Medical Devices. In addition, depending upon product type, the Company must also comply with those regulations governing the Conduct of Human Investigations, Pre-Market Approval Regulations and other requirements, as promulgated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA is authorized to inspect a device, its labeling and advertising, and the facilities in which it is manufactured in order to ensure that the device is not manufactured or labeled in a manner which could cause it to be injurious to health. Under the 1976 Amendment and the Safe Medical Device Act, the FDA has adopted regulations which classify medical devices based upon the degree of regulation it believes is necessary to assure safety and efficacy. A device is classified as a Class I, II, or III device. Class I devices are subject only to general controls. Class II devices, in addition to general controls, are or will be subject to "performance standards." Most devices are subject to the 501(K) pre-market notification provision. In addition, some Class III devices require FDA pre-market approval before they may be marketed commercially because their safety and effectiveness cannot be assured by the general controls and performance standards of Class I or II devices. The Company's products are mostly Class II devices. Several of them have required FDA notification under Section 510(k) of the FDA Act. The FDA has the authority to, among other things: deny marketing approval until all regulatory protocols are deemed acceptable; halt the shipment of defective products; and seize defective products sold to customers. Adverse publicity from the FDA, if any, could have a negative impact upon sales. To date, the Company has had no FDA oversight problems, and none are pending to its knowledge. Manufacturing and Quality Assurance The Company assembles its products at its facility. The various components for the products, which include plastic sheeting, plastic moldings, wire, semi-conductor circuits, electronic and pneumatic components and power supplies are obtained from outside vendors. The Company does not anticipate any difficulties in obtaining the components necessary to manufacture its products. Quality control procedures are performed by the Company at its facility and occasionally at its suppliers' facilities to standards set forth in the "Good Manufacturing Practices". These procedures include the inspection of components and full testing of finished goods. The Company has a controlled clean environment where the final assembly of single-patient-use products is conducted. The Company has charted a course to becoming certified to ISO 9000 and relevent European Union Directives in order to broaden European markets and make domestic quality system improvements. Backlog The Company's practice is to ship its products upon receipt of a customer's order or pursuant to customer-requested ship dates. On December 31, 1995, the Company had a backlog of orders from customers for products with requested ship dates in 1996 totaling approximately $880,000, deliverable throughout 1996, as compared to $691,000 as of December 31, 1994. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company will fulfill approximately $273,000 of this backlog. Trademarks, Patents and Copyrights Certificates of Registration have been issued to the Company by the United States Department of Commerce Patent and Trademark Office for the following marks: CAS (Registered trademark), Pedisphyg (Registered trademark), OscilloMate (Registered trademark), NeoGuard (Registered trademark), Tuff-Cuff (Registered trademark), Limboard (Registered trademark), Klear-Trace (Registered trademark), and the heart shaped mark for use as a thermal reflector and the Company's corporate logo.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources As of December 31, 1995, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,082,003, compared to $301,472 at December 31, 1994 (an increase of 359%), and the Company's working capital totaled $2,087,687 on December 31, 1995, compared to $1,506,332 on December 31, 1994. The Company's increased cash position is due to cash provided by operating activities in 1995. As a result of improved liquidity in 1995, the Company was able to internally finance approximately $70,000 of property and equipment additions and paid the outstanding debt in full. The Company's working capital ratio improved from 4.17 at December 31, 1994 to 4.23 at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1994, the Company had a line of credit with a Connecticut bank totaling $500,000. On August 1, 1995, this line was extended through August 1, 1996. Borrowings under the line bears interest at prime plus 1.5%. At December 31, 1995, there were no borrowings outstanding under this line. On July 27, 1994, the Company entered into a new four year licensing agreement with a major manufacturer of patient monitors, granting a nonexclusive license to use the Company's blood pressure technology for a specific application, and allowing the exchange of technical know-how. Under this agreement, the Company will receive $750,000 over the initial four year term, plus royalties. The manufacturer has the option to extend the license for an additional three year period upon payment of an additional $600,000 plus royalties over the extended term. This agreement replaces a prior licensing agreement with the manufacturer. License fees are being recognized on a straight line basis over the contract period. The Company believes that existing funds together with internally generated funds from 1996 operations and its existing line of credit arrangement will provide the Company with adequate liquidity and capital resources to meet its 1996 financial requirements. Results of Operations 1995 Compared to 1994 The Company earned $849,000 ($.08 per common share) in 1995, compared to $301,000 ($.03 per common share) in 1994. The 1995 earnings performance was favorably impacted by incremental gross margin generated by higher sales volume and an increase in licensing fee revenues partially offset by additional sales support costs. The Company's revenues increased by 31 percent to approximately $6,429,000 for 1995 compared to revenues of approximately $4,895,000 for the previous year. Sales of NIBP modules to Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM") who utilize the Company's technology in their systems, were responsible for approximately $862,000 of the growth in overall sales revenues. Sales of our blood pressure monitors were 33 percent higher than the same period in 1994. The Company expects continued improvement in overall sales next year. Total cost of product sales decreased as a percentage of net product sales from 49.5 percent to 45.9 percent when comparing the current year to 1994. The decrease in cost reflects an on-going quality and cost reduction efforts and a more profitable product mix. Research and development expenses increased by 21 percent during 1995 to approximately $405,000 compared to $335,000 for the same period of 1994, primarily due to development cost of new products. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to approximately $2,272,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared to the prior year of approximately $1,898,000, an increase of 20 percent. However, as a percentage of net revenues, 1995 decreased to 35 percent from 39 percent in 1994. The increase in expenses was primarily due to salaries and related expenses, legal fees for patent applications for new product and telemarketing expenses for various products. The Company's strong cash position enabled all outstanding debt to be paid in full and resulted in excess cash. The Company earned approximately $19,000 from various investment accounts. During 1995, the Company utilized approximately $874,000 of net operating loss carryforwards to reduce its provision for taxes for financial reporting purposes. The tax benefit associated with this utilization of net operating loss carryforwards was approximately $297,000 or $.03 per common share. As of December 31, 1995, the company has utilized substantially all of its net operating loss carryforwards. 1994 Compared to 1993 The Company earned $301,000 ($.03 per common share) in 1994, compared to $475,000 ($.05 per common share) in 1993. The 1994 earnings performance was impacted by softness in sales of certain of the Company's product lines partially offset by an increase in licensing fee revenues. The Company's revenues decreased from $5,045,859 in 1993 to $4,895,348 in 1994, a decrease of $150,511. The decrease in revenues reflects a decrease in international product sales attributed primarily to delays in shipments of non-invasive blood pressure modules and declines in domestic sales of disposable products due to increased competition. This decrease in product revenues was partially offset by an increase in licensing fee revenues from $40,000 in 1993 to $220,833 in 1994 as a result of a new licensing agreement. Cost of product sales increased as a percent of net product sales from 45 percent in 1993 to 49 percent in 1994. This increase mainly reflects under absorption of overhead expenses due to decreased sales and production. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $1,898,039 in 1994 from $1,934,808 in 1993, a decrease of $36,769. The decrease is due primarily to a reduction in payroll costs beginning in the second quarter of 1994, and reimbursement of certain professional fees and expenses upon signing of the license agreement previously discussed. Net interest expense decreased in 1994 to $29,869 from $33,721 in 1993. The decrease was due to net debt principal reductions of approximately $130,500 during 1994. During 1994, the Company utilized approximately $290,000 of net operating loss carryforwards to reduce its provision for taxes for financial reporting purposes. The tax benefit associated with this utilization of net operating loss carryforwards was approximately $104,000 or $.01 per common share. ITEM 8.

In exchange, the Company agreed to pay the Shareholder an amount equal to five percent of the net invoice price of all electrodes manufactured and sold by the Company using the System, during a period of five years. The System became fully operational and the five year period commenced on January 8, 1990. The agreement expired as of December 31, 1994, there fore there were no earning expenses relating to royalties during 1995. During 1994 and 1993, royalties earned by the shareholder to the agreement totaled $78,181 and $91,807, respectively.

F-8 CAS MEDICAL SYSTEMS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1995 (1) The Company: CAS Medical Systems, Inc. (the "Company") is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and distributing diagnostic equipment and medical products for use in the healthcare and medical industry. These products are sold by the Company through its own sales force, via distributors and pursuant to original equipment manufacturer agreements internationally and in the United States. The Company's operations and manufacturing facilities are located in the United States. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company had sales to one customer which in the aggregate accounted for approximately 12%, 13% and 13% of sales, respectively, and had export sales principally to Europe, including licensing fee revenues, of $2,155,748, $1,463,974 and $1,516,524, respectively. (2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Property and Equipment- Property and equipment are stated at cost. Furniture and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from two to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease. Revenue Recognition- Revenues from product sales are recognized upon passage of title, generally upon shipment. Revenues from licensing fees are recognized over the term of the agreement (see Note 6). Net Income per Common Share- Net income per common share has been computed by dividing net income available for common stock, after cumulative preferred dividends earned, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Weighted average shares outstanding includes the common equivalent shares calculated for outstanding stock options and warrants under the treasury stock method. 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 and disclosure of contingent 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. F-9 Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements- The Company does not believe any recently issued accounting standards will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations. The Company plans to continue to apply the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and adopt the disclosure requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" ("FAS 123"), beginning in 1996. Accordingly, the issuance of FAS 123 will not impact the Company's consolidated financial statements. Reclassifications- Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to conform to current year presentation. (3) Inventories: Inventories include costs of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead. Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market and consist of the following: 1995 1994 Raw materials $505,159 $575,915 Work in process 160,215 112,782 Finished goods 177,930 122,291 -------- -------- $843,304 $810,988 ________ ________ (4) Debt: At December 31, 1995, the Company's line of credit arrangement allowed for maximum borrowings of $500,000, all of which was available. The line of credit arrangement expires on August 1, 1996, and bears interest at the prime rate (8.50% at December 31, 1995) plus 1.5%. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the maximum month end borrowings outstanding under this line were $50,000, $200,000 and $115,000, the weighted average borrowings were approximately $4,167, $92,100 and $25,500, and the weighted average interest rates on amounts outstanding were 10.3%, 8.3% and 7.5%, respectively. The bank has a first security interest in all assets of the Company and requires a compensating balance equal to 20% of the line of credit ($100,000 at December 31, 1995). (5) Debt to Related Parties: During the fourth quarter of 1990, a majority preferred shareholder exchanged a 10% convertible note for a new term note which matured and was repaid in December 1995. The holder of the 10% term note was the Series C preferred shareholder and had a security interest in all tangible and intangible assets of the Company. F-10 (6) License Agreements: In June 1989, the Company and a majority preferred shareholder (the "Shareholder") entered into an agreement, whereby the Shareholder agreed to fund $100,000 for the Company to purchase certain components needed to establish an electrode manufacturing facility ("the System"). In exchange, the Company agreed to pay the Shareholder an amount equal to five percent of the net invoice price of all electrodes manufactured and sold by the Company using the System for a period of five years. The System became fully operational and the five year period commenced on January 8, 1990. The agreement expired as of December 31, 1994, and, accordingly, there were no related royalty revenues or expenses during 1995. During 1994 and 1993, royalties earned by the Shareholder pursuant to this agreement totaled $78,181 and $91,807, respectively. The Company recognized revenue on a straight-line basis over the agreement period ($20,000 per year), and, accordingly, net royalty expense was $58,181 and $71,807 during 1994 and 1993, respectively. On July 27, 1994, the Company entered into a four year licensing agreement with a major European manufacturer of medical equipment, canceling and superseding a prior licensing agreement with this customer. The agreement granted a nonexclusive license to use the Company's blood pressure technology for a specific application. As part of this agreement, the Company will receive $750,000 plus royalties over the initial four year term, of which $300,000 has been received through December 31, 1995. The manufacturer has the option to extend the license for an additional three year period upon payment of an additional $600,000 plus royalties over the extended term. License fees from this agreement and deferred revenue of $140,000 from the prior license agreement are being recognized on a straight line basis over the new contract period. (7) Capital Stock: Holders of the Series C cumulative preferred stock are entitled to a cumulative dividend, payable quarterly, at the annual rate of $10 per share. The Company has the right to redeem the preferred stock in whole or in part, at a price equal to $100 per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. On July 1, 1995, 2,000 shares of the Company's Series C preferred stock were redeemed at $100 per share plus all dividends accrued at that time. Upon redemption, the shares were retired and the Company filed with the State of Delaware a certificate of reduction of stated capital. No dividends may be paid on common stock unless all accumulated dividends have been paid on the Series C cumulative preferred stock. Dividends in the amount of $40,000, $50,000 and $50,000 were paid on these shares in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. On January 17, 1996, the remaining 3,000 shares of the Company's Series C preferred stock were redeemed at $100 per share. (8) Employee Benefit Programs: Stock Options- In December 1984, the Board of Directors and stockholders adopted an Employee Incentive Stock Option 1984 Plan (the "1984 Plan"). The exercise price for common stock issued under the 1984 Plan is to be no F-11 less than the fair market value of the stock at the grant date of the options. Pursuant to the 1984 Plan, 750,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for employee (including officers and directors) purchase. An option granted under the 1984 Plan becomes exercisable in two equal annual installments, commencing one year from the date of the grant of the option. Options begin to expire between five and ten years from the date of grant, depending on the optionholder's percentage of ownership of the Company. In the event employment is terminated, the employee no longer has the right to exercise his or her options unless expressly permitted by the Board of Directors. In June 1994, the Board of Directors and stockholders adopted the 1994 Employees' Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1994 Plan"). Pursuant to the 1994 Plan, 250,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for employee (including officers and directors) purchase. The 1994 Plan is the successor to the 1984 Plan and contains provisions which are similar to those of the 1984 Plan. Transactions in stock options under the Plans are summarized as follows: Exercise Price Shares per Option Outstanding at December 31, 1992 973,400 $.20 to $.75 Exercised (17,500) .25 Canceled (35,000) .375 to .75 -------- Outstanding at December 31, 1993 920,900 $.20 to $.75 Granted 120,000 .31 Canceled (50,000) .275 -------- Outstanding at December 31, 1994 990,900 $.20 to $.75 Granted 75,000 .82 Canceled/Exercised (85,000) .25 to .75 -------- Outstanding at December 31, 1995 980,900 $.20 to $.82 ________ Exercisable at December 31, 1995 845,900 $.20 to $.75 ________ In 1993, the Company granted a warrant to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock to an officer of the Company. The exercise price ($.31 per share) was equal to the fair market value of the stock at the grant date of the warrant. The warrant has no expiration date. Life Insurance- During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Company paid life insurance premiums of approximately $10,000 for life insurance policies on the lives of two officers of the Company. The policies are in the face amounts of $1,000,000 and $650,000. The beneficiaries of $250,000 and $150,000, respectively, of the policies are designated by the insured. The Company is the beneficiary of the balance. F-12 401(k) Plan- During 1992, the Company established a 401(k) benefit plan for its employees which generally allows participants to make contributions by salary deductions up to allowable Internal Revenue Service limits on a tax-deferred basis and discretionary contributions by the Company. The 1995 contribution was $28,166. The Company did not make discretionary contributions in 1994 or 1993. The Company does not provide other post-retirement benefits. (9) Income Taxes: Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109), which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences resulting from differences between the book and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. In addition, SFAS 109 requires the recognition of future tax benefits of net operating loss carryforwards to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely than not. This change in accounting had no significant effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The 1995, 1994 and 1993 provisions for income taxes of $85,000, $20,000 and $17,000, respectively, represent state income taxes and in 1994 and 1993 federal alternative minimum taxes, and are net of tax benefits of net operating loss carryforwards utilized in 1995, 1994 and 1993 of $874,000, $104,000, and $253,000, respectively. As of December 31, 1995, the Company has utilized substantially all of its net operating loss carryforwards. The 1995 provision for income taxes includes deferred tax benefits of approximately $25,000 due to temporary differences related primarily to certain accruals not currently deductible for income tax purposes. (10) Commitments and Contingencies: Employment Agreements- The Company is committed under employment agreements with certain officers aggregating $175,000 and which expire in 1996. Other Commitments- Minimum annual rentals under the Company's noncancelable lease agreement covering its principal office space, which expires on December 31, 1998 and includes escalations for real estate taxes, are as follows: 1996 $101,000 1997 104,000 1998 110,000 -------- $315,000 ________ Rent expense was approximately $102,000, $105,000 and $62,000 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
