PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable  detail the reasons why Form 10-K,  11-K,  20-F, 10-Q,
N-SAR or the  transition  report  portion  thereof could not be filed within the
prescribed time period.

The  registrant's  Form 10-Q for the quarter ended  September 30, 1999 cannot be
filed within the prescribed time period. To date, the registrant has been unable
to file its Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999
and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1999;  its financial  statement
for the quarter ended  September 30, 1999 cannot be accurately  compiled  before
its year-end results and financial statement for the quarter ended June 30, 1999
are finalized.

The  registrant  previously  disclosed  the delay in filing its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1999, as disclosed in  registrant's  Form
12b-25  dated  June 30,  1999.  This  delay  has been  further  affected  by the
following:  As previously disclosed in registrant's Form 8-K dated September 24,
1999, as of September 17, 1999,  the  registrant  retained Grant Thornton LLP as
its new independent certified public accountants.  This followed the resignation
of  PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP as the Company's  independent  certified  public
accountants on August 25, 1999, as previously disclosed in registrant's Form 8-K
dated  September 1, 1999. The  registrant's  year-end  audit is currently  being
performed  by  Grant  Thornton.   In  addition,   as  previously   disclosed  in
registrant's  Form 8-K dated  September  1,  1999,  the  registrant's  financial
statements  for the first,  second and third  quarters  of fiscal 1999 are being
restated from those previously announced by the registrant in February 1999.

Once  the  audit  process  and the  restatement  of the  registrant's  financial
statements  for the  first,  second  and  third  quarters  of  fiscal  1999  are
completed,  the  registrant  intends to promptly  file its Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year  ended  March 31,  1999 and will  file its Forms  10-Q for the
quarters  ended June 30,  1999 and  September  30,  1999 as soon  thereafter  as
practicable. However, the registrant does not expect to be able to file its Form
10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 prior to the time period indicated
in paragraph (b) of Part II of this Form 12b-25.

PART IV - OTHER INFORMATION

(1)  Name  and  telephone  number  of  person  to  contact  in  regard  to  this
notification.

David B. Schick            (718) 937-5765
(Name)                     (Area Code) (Telephone Number)

(2) Have all other  periodic  reports  required under Section 13 or 15(d) or the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment  Company Act of
1940  during  the  preceding  12  months  or for such  shorter  period  that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed?  If the answer is no,
identify report(s).

                                                                  ( ) Yes (x) No

     Registrant  has not yet filed its  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended March 31, 1999 or its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.

Note:   Registrant  intends to file its Forms 10-Q/A for the quarters ended June
        30, 1998,  September  30, 1998 and  December 31, 1998  contemporaneously
        with or shortly  after its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
        March 31, 1999 is filed.

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant  change in results of operations from
the  corresponding  period for the last  fiscal  year will be  reflected  by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

                                                                  (x) Yes ( ) No

If so, attach an explanation of the  anticipated  change,  both  narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate
of the results cannot be made.

The registrant  anticipates reporting a net loss for the quarter ended September
30, 1999. The registrant is unable to provide an explanation of any  anticipated
change inasmuch as it intends, as previoulsy  disclosed in registrant's Form 8-K
dated September 1, 1999, to restate its financial  statements for the comparable
quarter of the preceding year, but has not yet done so.

                            SCHICK TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
                  (Name of Registrant as Specified in Charter)

has  caused  this  notification  to be signed on its  behalf by the  undersigned
thereunto duly authorized.
