Below is the statement that was released for the Q. NOTE THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF SHARES USED TO DETERMINE LOSS/SHARE. This is fishy since they just stated (previously released statements) they had 15+M as of July 16 and a potential 6+m exercizable.

Biocircuits Corporation Announces Second Quarter 1997 Financial Results
SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Biocircuits Corporation (Nasdaq:BIOC) announced today its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 1997. The company reported a net loss of approximately $2.3 million, or $0.23 per share compared to a net loss of $3.7 million, or $0.80 per share recorded in the second quarter of 1996. The second quarter results also compare favorably to the first quarter 1997 when a loss of $3.5 million or $0.41 per share was reported.
``The $1.4 million reduction in losses is a direct result of the actions taken in April to reduce the burn rate,'' stated John Kaiser, President and CEO. Mr. Kaiser further stated that, ``While placements of IOS(R) units in end user sites during the second quarter did not meet the criteria for the second tranche of the April financing, placements were approximately three times the first quarter placements and the installed base of IOS systems has more than doubled since the first of the year. Placement of units in end users substantially exceeded purchases by distributors, reducing distributor inventory to a level well below first quarter levels.''
Mr. Kaiser also stated that, ``The improvement in end user placements and the previously announced signing of the non-binding letter of intent with Becton Dickinson allowed the Company to successfully close a $5.1 million financing to replace the funds that the Company would have received in the second tranche of the April financing.''
