ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

    Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in this
report (including without limitation, statements indicating that the Company
"expects," "estimates," "anticipates," or "believes" and all other statements
concerning future financial results, product offerings or other events that have
not yet occurred) are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Forward-looking statements involve
known and unknown factors, risks and uncertainties which may cause the Company's
actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results.
Those factors, risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the
positioning of the Company's products in the Diagnostic and Therapeutic Plasma
Products industry; the Company's ability to effectively manage its various
businesses in a rapidly changing environment; the impact of new blood safety
measures by the American Blood Resources Association or FDA which could
disqualify certain of the Company's current donors or impose excessive new costs
through new or revised testing and/or screening requirements; new competition
for donors and customers; the Company's dependence on a few major customers and
its ability to negotiate new agreements with such customers with favorable terms
and conditions; the inability of the Company to obtain FDA approval of newly
established centers; the ability of the company to integrate newly acquired
company's with geographically separated organizations, different business
backgrounds and different corporate cultures; and the introduction of synthetic
products which could eliminate the need for plasma products.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

    SeraCare, Inc. ("SeraCare" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Delaware in 1991 and changed its name from American Blood
Institute, Inc. to SeraCare, Inc. effective February 6, 1996. The Company's
principal business and executive offices are at 1925 Century Park East, Suite
1970, Los Angeles, California 90067, telephone (310) 772-7777.

    COMPANY HISTORY.  The Company as it is currently organized has evolved over
the last four years since February 6, 1996, when a new management team with a
strategic plan for expansion and growth began guiding the Company. During that
four year period, the Company has grown from six plasma collection centers to a
total of thirty four centers as of February 29, 2000, both through acquisition
and by establishing new startup centers. In January 1998, the Company acquired
Western States Group, Inc. (herein referred to as "Western States") and
Consolidated Technologies (herein referred to as "CTI"). On February 29, 2000,
the Company sold substantially all of the operating assets of CTI in a strategic
move to reduce debt and reorganize the company along business lines.
SeraCare, Inc. went public in May 1996 on the OTC Bulletin Board and is now
listed on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol SRK.

    PRINCIPAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS.  During the fiscal year just ended, the
Company was organized by division and consisted of three divisions: Consolidated
Technologies Division; Western States Plasma Division; and the Biologics
Division. With the acquisitions of Western States and CTI, the Company became a
fully integrated collector; manufacturer and marketer of plasma based diagnostic
products and tests. Western States provided expanded worldwide marketing with
its domestic customer base and an extensive European and Asian presence. In
addition, the Company's Biologics Division continued to be a factor in the
business of collecting and selling source plasma to manufacturers of
pharmaceutical and diagnostic products (called Fractionators). While the primary
product of the Company's Biologics Division continues to be source plasma, the
Company also collected and sold significant volumes of Cytomegalovirus Antibody
Plasma (CMV), Tetanus Antibody Plasma and HbSag (hepatitus positive) plasma
during the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000. The Company's customers process
source plasma into such

                                       2
<PAGE>
products as gamma globulin (used to provide passive immunity for infectious
diseases such as hepatitis B, tetanus and rabies), the Antihemophilic factor
(used to treat hemophiliac victims), normal serum albumin (used for shock,
trauma and burn victims), diagnostic test kits for hepatitis and allergies, and
blood bank typing reagents. The Company also established a Specialty Plasma
Program during the year which focuses on rare and valuable antibodies and
reactive units. Initial results coordinated through the efforts of Western
States have been promising.

    The process of collecting plasma is called Plasmapheresis, which consists of
drawing whole blood from a donor; centrifuge separation of the whole blood into
its components; removal of the plasma component; and returning of the red blood
cells to the donor; all in the same process. Because the red blood cells are
returned to the donor, it is possible to donate plasma more frequently than
whole blood. According to FDA rules, a donor can donate plasma up to twice per
week or 104 times per year.

    The Company's Biologics Division currently sells the majority of the source
plasma it collects to fractionators under one to five year renewable contracts
which allow for annual pricing adjustments. The fractionators process the plasma
into therapeutic products which are then sold for distribution to the end users
of the products. None of the source plasma collected by the Company is sold or
administered to an end user without being processed by a fractionator.

    With the sale of substantially all of the operating assets of CTI as of
February 29, 2000, the Company has reorganized along business lines.
Organizationally, the Company now consists of two business segments, the
Therapeutic Products Segment and the Diagnostic Products Segment. The
Therapeutic Products Segment consists primarily of the plasma collection
operations and certain of the distribution operations which focus on the
international markets for therapeutic products. The Diagnostic Products Segment
consists primarily of that portion of the distribution operation which focuses
on the worldwide markets for diagnostic products and that portion of the plasma
collection operations which identifies and collects rare antibody and reactive
units.

CURRENT OPERATIONS.

    BIOLOGICS DIVISION.  The Biologics Division currently conducts its business
through five wholly-owned subsidiaries: AVRE, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Binary
Associates, Inc., a Colorado corporation, BHM Labs, Inc., an Arkansas
corporation, American Plasma, Inc. a Texas corporation, and SeraCare
Acquisitions, Inc., a Nevada corporation. During FY 2000, the Biologics Division
opened new centers in Laredo, Texas; Allentown, Pennsylvania; and Reading,
Pennsylvania, all of which became fully licensed by the FDA and QPP certified
before or during March 2000. As of April 30, 1999, the Pasco center was
operating under a Reference Number from the FDA pending approval of license
applications. Collection centers which have not received FDA approval of its
license application are allowed to operate under a Reference Number and process
donors in order to develop sufficient training and records for review by FDA
inspectors to establish the locations ability to comply with FDA Regulations.
Such centers are however, precluded from selling any of the collected plasma
until final approval of its license application. Historically, it has taken
approximately six to eighteen months from date of filing to obtain final FDA
approval on a new license application. The Company's customers require both an
FDA license and QPP Certification under all current contracts. QPP Certification
for such centers is requested when the FDA license application has been approved
and can take six to eight weeks to obtain.

    As of April 30, 2000, the Company had thirty four plasma collection centers
in operation which were located in: Las Vegas, Nevada; Clarkesville, Tennessee;
Phoenix, Arizona(2); Ft. Smith, Arkansas; Clearfield, Utah; Raleigh, North
Carolina; Pasco, Washington; Toledo, Ohio; Macon, Georgia; Savannah, Georgia;
Reno, Nevada; South Bend, Indiana; Kalamazoo, Michigan; Boise, Idaho; Pocatello,
Idaho; Salt Lake City, Utah; Amarillo, Texas; Beaumont, Texas; Longview, Texas;
Houston, Texas (4); Casa Grande, Arizona; Pasadena, Texas; Mesa, Arizona; Baton
Rouge, Louisiana; Port Arthur, Texas; Wilmington,

                                       3
<PAGE>
Delaware; Lancaster, Pennsylvania; Reading, Pennsylvania; Allentown,
Pennsylvania, and Laredo, Texas. During FY 2000, such centers processed about
626,076 donations.

    The Company is also in the initial stages of establishing two new centers in
Danville, Virginia and Providence, Rhode Island which are expected to be
operational during the next three to six months.

    The plasma centers are operating under the tradename "SeraCare" which is
registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

    During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 about 67 percent of the
revenue derived from the Biologics Division was from Grupo Grifols, S.A. the
leading fractionator in Spain. Effective January 1, 1999, Grupo Grifols, S.A.
and the Company signed a new two-year contract which was amended on
November 19, 1999 to extend through the year 2002. The new agreements expand the
plasma requirements by one-third for the year 2000 through calendar 2002. About
18 percent of the revenue derived from plasma collection operations was from
sales to Alpha Therapeutic, a subsidiary of Yashi Tomi Pharmaceutical ("Alpha").
Alpha and the Company signed new two-year agreements covering production from
ten of the centers acquired on July 6, 1998. About 15 percent of plasma revenue
was from other entities including inter-divisional sales.

    In September 1999, the Company announced a Marketing and Distribution
Strategic Alliance with Aventis Bio-Services, Inc. ("Aventis"). Under terms of
the five year Plasma Purchase and Management Services Agreement, Aventis agreed
to provide management services relating to certain specified centers and to
purchase all of the plasma collected at such centers. Aventis
Bio-Services, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Centeon L.L.C., a joint
venture of Hoechst AG and Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Inc., and is the world's largest,
fully integrated plasma collection company with offices, laboratories, logistics
centers and collection centers throughout the United States and Germany.

    There is also a very active "Spot Market" for plasma via which the Company
could sell excess plasma should any of their location contracts not be renewed.
Prices for "Spot Market" plasma vary, but generally run ten to fifteen percent
higher than the Company's current contract pricing.

    Most of the Biologics Division's revenue is derived under contracts and
relationships, which once established continue to be renewed. The plasma
collected by the Biologics Division is generally used in the manufacture of
therapeutic products to treat certain diseases. Several companies are attempting
to develop and market products to treat these diseases based upon technology,
which would lessen or eliminate the need for human blood plasma. Such products,
if successfully developed and marketed, could adversely affect the demand for
plasma. Products utilizing technology developed to date have not yet proven as
cost-effective or as marketable to healthcare providers as products based on
human blood plasma. However, there can be no assurances that such technology
will not ultimately become economically viable and cause a severe adverse impact
upon the Company and the plasma industry as a whole.

    During fiscal 2000, the Company has responded to the challenge of issues
raised by the FDA and has made several changes which the Company believes are
necessary in order to be successful in this highly regulated industry. The
Company has established the position of "Director of Quality Assurance and
Compliance". This position serves as the communication link between the company
and the FDA, in addition to having responsibility for insuring that the Company
maintains a high level of compliance. Three new manager positions, "Manager of
Quality Assurance", were developed in support of the Director of Quality
Assurance and Compliance to provide appropriate focus and control over the
centers. Each Manager of Quality Assurance responds to day-to-day issues
encountered by the various centers and are on site during FDA audits to insure
that any issues are addressed and corrected timely. The Company has also
established full time Quality Assurance positions in each of the 34 plasma
collection centers with the ongoing responsibility of insuring compliance within
the center. In order to verify that the Company's commitment to compliance is
being adhered to, the Company retained an independent Compliance

                                       4
<PAGE>
Auditor to perform periodic unannounced compliance inspections at the centers,
simulating FDA inspections, with the audit results being sent directly to the
President of the Biologics Group and the President of the Company. The focus of
all inspections and review processes is to insure that each of the Company's
centers are in compliance with all customer, European or FDA regulations that
protect the integrity of the products and the safety of donors and employees.

    WESTERN STATES PLASMA DIVISION.  During fiscal 2000, the Western States
Plasma Division operated through Western States Group, Inc., located in
Oceanside, California. Western States is an FDA licensed worldwide marketing
organization for therapeutic based blood plasma products, diagnostic test kits,
specialty plasma and bulk materials, with offices in Helsinki, Germany, Milan,
Mexico City, Tel Aviv and Seoul. Western States is a vendor-approved supplier to
507 pharmaceutical and other healthcare companies, including being listed as an
Exclusive Supplier in many customers regulatory applications with the FDA.
Western States has also helped certain customers develop internal protocols and
standards used to establish quality control benchmarks and has performed various
other value-added services for its' customers in order to establish solid
relationships. This Division's primary focus is on multinational biotech,
pharmaceutical and technology products. Western States generally sells its
plasma under purchase order agreements, but is also active in the spot market.
During fiscal 2000, Western States also established itself as a major supplier
of plasma based diagnostic products to several major domestic pharmaceutical
companies and signed a significant distribution agreement with the largest
producer of Bovine Products in the world. Additionally, this Division cultivated
alternative diagnostic applications for traditionally therapeutic products as an
alternative to animal based mediums and established itself as a manufacturer of
bulk plasma based products and serums.

    CONSOLIDATED TECHNOLOGIES DIVISION.  During fiscal 2000, the Consolidated
Technologies Division operated through SeraCare Technology, Inc., a Nevada
corporation. Located in Austin, Texas, Consolidated Technologies is a biomedical
company which manufacturers over 200 plasma based diagnostic products consisting
primarily of proficiency test specimens, controls and calibrators. Consolidated
Technologies supplies two of the leading proficiency testing services in the
United States who use these products to test members of their respective
organizations. Laboratories and other healthcare companies use controls,
calibrators and standards to assess the accuracy and precision of laboratory
test methods and instruments. Consolidated Technologies' products include
biological materials and private-labeled products for manufacturing or
laboratory use. Products have applications in most laboratory test disciplines,
including serum chemistry, urine chemistry, toxicology, immunology/serology,
coagulation, and infectious disease.

    On February 29, 2000 (the "Closing Date") the Company sold substantially all
of the operating assets of SeraCare Technology, Inc., (dba Consolidated
Technologies), a Nevada corporation (herein referred to as "CTI") located in
Austin, Texas to Consolidated Technologies, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, which
is a subsidiary of Sybron International, Inc. (referred to herein as "Sybron").
Under terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement the transaction was an all cash
transaction with the purchase price received by SeraCare (which is subject to
adjustment) consisting of $16,750,000 base purchase price plus $656,515 in
various closing adjustments. The purchase price was determined through arms
length negotiations between the Company and Sybron. The operating assets sold by
SeraCare included, but were not limited to: certain real property; furniture and
fixtures; machinery and equipment; leasehold improvements; licenses and other
intangible properties including certifications, FDA licenses and trademarks;
inventories; certain trade receivables; and interests arising under or in
connection with contracts with customers.

COMPETITION

    The Company's Biologics Division competes for donors with pharmaceutical
companies which collect plasma for their own use, several other commercial
plasma collection companies, and non-profit organizations, such as the American
Red Cross and community blood banks, which solicit the donation of whole blood.
A number of these competitors have access to greater financial, marketing and
other resources than

                                       5
<PAGE>
the Company. If the Company is unable to maintain and expand its donor base, its
business and future prospects will be adversely affected.

    The Western States Group competes with fractionators in the sale of plasma
products and other plasma collection companies in the sale of human source
plasma and specialty plasma. Long term established relationships internationally
and domestically serve as the cornerstone of Western States competitive edge. In
addition, Western States ability to work with customers in developing SOP's and
formulations for FDA approval appears unique within the industry. However, if
Western States is not able to sustain their relationships, or if more
pharmaceutical companies decide to buy directly from fractionators, its business
and future growth could be adversely affected.

    CTI competes with an array of small diagnostics manufacturers in a highly
diverse competitive environment with each company targeting a small segment of
the $20 billion diagnostics industry. Several major pharmaceutical companies are
moving toward outsourcing of their diagnostic test kits, controls and
calibrators, with the key to success as a contract manufacturer being quality
control and a quality end product. CTI has focused its efforts on this segment
where their technical expertise and established quality control procedures
provide a competitive edge. However, if major pharmaceutical companies determine
to manufacture their own products or if CTI fails to maintain a quality image,
their business and future prospects could be adversely affected.

TRADEMARKS

    The Company's plasma collection centers are operated under the tradename
"SeraCare" which is registered with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office.

REGULATORY ISSUES

    The plasma collection and derivative industry is one of the most heavily
regulated in the United States. Federal, state and local regulations are
designed to protect the health of the donors as well as the integrity of the
products. The Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") administers the federal
regulations across the country. Failure to comply with FDA regulations, or state
and local regulations, may result in the forced closure of a collection center
or monetary fines or both, depending upon the issues involved. The Company is
also subject to regulation by Occupational Safety and Health Administration
("OSHA"). The following summarizes the nature of these regulations:

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

    FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION:

    The Food and Drug Administration has extensive regulations pertaining to the
collection, storage and transport of human SOURCE PLASMA. These regulations are
found in the Code of Federal Regulations 21: Parts 207, 211, 606 and 640.

    Part 207 requires the operators of blood and blood products establishments
to register and list their products with the Center for Biologics Evaluation and
Research ("CBER"), FDA. Part 211, Subparts B and C regulate the quality control
personnel and facilities as well as the overall facilities themselves.

                                       6
<PAGE>
    Part 606 relates to the qualifications of the center personnel, both medical
and technical as well as the plant or center facilities and buildings.
Part 640, Subpart G titled Source Plasma is a comprehensive set of regulations
covering virtually every aspect of a plasma center operation. These include but
are not limited to:

    informed consent,

    medical supervision,

    donor suitability,

    collection of blood for source plasma,

    plasmapheresis (the actual procedure of collecting plasma),

    required laboratory tests,

    processing of plasma,

    general requirements,

    labeling of containers,

    manufacturing responsibility,

    records,

    reporting of donor reactions,

    modification of source plasma and

    shipping and storage of plasma.

    In addition to the Code of Federal Regulations, the FDA regularly releases
various guidelines to which all registered blood establishments are expected to
comply.

    To ensure compliance, the FDA, through their various regional offices,
conduct unannounced inspections of all plasma and blood centers. These
inspections are usually annual and the results are kept on record at CBER, FDA.
The inspectors generally examine records, equipment, facilities, review the
training documents for personnel, review the physical examination procedures and
observe the various procedures being accomplished. These inspections typically
last from two to five days and may involve more than one inspector. The
observations of an inspector are recorded on a Form 483, a copy of which is
given to the local manager. These observations must be responded to within a two
week period, detailing what, if any, actions have been taken to correct the
observation. The regional office generally makes a determination together with
CBER as to whether these responses properly address the issues. If the
observations were considered serious enough; or, if the answers were not
considered adequate, CBER will issue a REGULATORY LETTER. This is considered a
"red flag" in the industry and if not responded to in a timely and appropriate
manner, can result in CBER taking further action, including actually closing the
center.

    The FDA, through the Federal Register, frequently prints any actions taken
against a blood bank or plasma center as a result of compliance problems. These
are easily obtained either by contacting the FDA directly or on the FDA world
wide web page "www. fda.com".

    Fractionators (manufacturers to whom we sell the plasma) also conduct
compliance inspections in our centers on an annual basis. In addition, because
some of our products find their way into Europe and Asia, the Company is also
periodically inspected by members of other country's regulatory equivalent to
the FDA.

    During fiscal 2000, the Company has responded to the challenge of issues
raised by the FDA and made several changes which the Company believes are
necessary in order to be successful in this highly

                                       7
<PAGE>
regulated industry. The Company has established the position of "Director of
Quality Assurance and Compliance". This position serves as the communication
link between the company and the FDA, in addition to having responsibility for
insuring that the Company maintains a high level of compliance. Three new
manager positions, "Manager of Quality Assurance", were developed in support of
the Director of Quality Assurance and Compliance to provide appropriate focus
and control over the centers. Each Manager of Quality Assurance responds to
day-to-day issues encountered by the various centers and are on site during FDA
audits to insure that any issues are addressed and corrected timely. The Company
has also established full time Quality Assurance positions in each of the 34
plasma collection centers with the ongoing responsibility of insuring compliance
within the center. In order to verify that the Company's commitment to
compliance is being adhered to, the Company retained an independent Compliance
Auditor to perform periodic unannounced compliance inspections at the centers,
simulating FDA inspections, with the audit results being sent directly to the
President of the Biologics Group and the President of the Company. The focus of
all inspections and review processes is to insure that each of the Company's
centers are in compliance with all customer, European or FDA regulations that
protect the integrity of the products and the safety of donors and employees.

    CLINICAL LABORATORY IMPROVEMENT ACT OF 1988:

    In 1988, the U.S. Department of Public Health introduced an updated set of
laboratory regulations. One of the many areas which this law, regulates is the
definition of the education level of personnel required to perform clinical
laboratory tests as well as regulating the equipment and the required controls
and calibrations. Among the various tests that must be passed by plasma center
personnel, there are several that fall under the guidelines of this act.
Although in most states the Federal Government has specifically delegated the
enforcement of this act to the States, the act is universally applied. Plasma
centers are periodically inspected under the CLIA 88 regulations.

    Part of the required compliance is that centers participate in a quality
control program which is CLIA approved. Consistent with such quality control
program, center personnel perform tests, the results of which are transmitted to
program administrators. The results must fall within an acceptable range in
order for the center to maintain its CLIA approval. To date, no SeraCare center
has failed to obtain CLIA approval.

    OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION:

    As with most operating companies, all of our centers must comply with both
Federal and State OSHA regulations. SeraCare trains its employees in current
OSHA standards, provides hepatitis vaccine to employees when desired, and
maintains all required records. OSHA does inspect operating locations as they
deem appropriate, and generally do so without advance notice. SeraCare has no
outstanding issues relating to an OSHA inspection which required corrective
action.

    STATE GOVERNMENTS

    NEVADA:

    Nevada law parallels the federal requirements as stated above with one
addition. The state requires that all employees of plasma centers be certified
with the state. This requires 6 months of experience, a completed application
and a fee.

    ALL OTHER STATES

    All other states in which SeraCare operates have regulations that parallel
the federal regulations. Most states do conduct periodic unannounced inspections
and require licensing under each state's procedures. The Company currently has
no unresolved issues relating to any state regulations.

                                       8

    INDUSTRY STANDARDS

    AMERICAN BLOOD RESOURCES ASSOCIATION:

    The American Blood Resources Association ("ABRA"), an industry organization
headquartered in Maryland, represents the majority, by far, of both plasma
collection companies and manufacturers. ABRA has established a voluntary program
in which member centers agree to adhere to a set of standards that exceed those
of FDA or state and local agencies. This program, entitled the Quality Plasma
Program ("QPP"), has been supported by the FDA, the National Hemophilia
Association as well as many European regulatory agencies. The QPP program
requires a biannual inspection which focuses on: employee training; facilities,
including cleanliness; and donor selection. The QPP criteria includes but is not
limited to:

    Donors must have permanent addresses with 150 miles of the center.

    The rates of viral marker tests must be within set national limits.

    A record of all employee training must be available along with the training
procedure.

    A program of donor drug testing must be implemented.

    All new donors must be checked with the National Donor Deferral Registry.

    The facility must meet all published standards, including location and
neighborhood.

    All of the Company's operating centers are QPP certified with the exception
of the one center for which final FDA license approval is pending. All of the
Company's newly established centers and initial stage centers have been designed
and planned to QPP specifications.

    During the past five years, the QPP program has created a higher level of
performance criteria with a focus on upgrading the image of the U.S. plasma
collection industry. Examples of the requirements which are enforced by the FDA,
state authorities and ABRA include: upgraded standards for the physical
facilities; higher standards for Standard Operating Procedures; strict screening
of donors for drugs and disease; verified addresses for all donors; use of a
national registry of deferred donors; and controlled viral reactive rates to
insure they remain within prescribed limits. The Quality Plasma Program ("QPP")
is designed to eliminate the collection of plasma from donors who are homeless,
transient or drug addicted. In addition, it requires all certified centers to
maintain documented and approved employee-training programs. All testing
required by the center must be performed in a QPP-approved laboratory.

    The Company closely monitors compliance with applicable governmental
regulations, ABRA standards imposed through QPP and the Company's own quality
assurance standards. In addition, contracts with fractionators require that
individual locations be reviewed and approved by such customer in order to allow
them to sell their end products in various countries throughout the world.

                          THE INDUSTRY AND THE MARKET

THE PRODUCT

    Currently, the Company's primary product is "SOURCE PLASMA." SOURCE PLASMA
is plasma collected from humans. Plasma is the liquid part of blood and is
collected through a procedure similar to giving blood. The clear plasma is
mechanically separated from the cellular elements of the blood (such as red and
white blood cells and platelets) through centrifugation or membrane filtration
at the time the donation is made. These cellular elements are then returned to
the donor as part of the same procedure. The process of collecting plasma is
known as PLASMAPHERESIS. Because blood cells are returned, it is possible for
individuals to donate plasma more frequently than whole blood. Donations of
plasma can be made up to twice per week or 104 times per year pursuant to FDA
rules.

                                       9

PLASMA DERIVED PRODUCTS

    Source plasma is sold to fractionators who process the plasma into two
primary groups of plasma products: INJECTABLE AND NON-INJECTABLE. These products
are used throughout the world to prevent illness and treat injuries.

    Pursuant to FDA Regulations, plasma collected by the Company is placed in
storage on site while a sample thereof is sent to a lab for testing. No plasma
can be shipped unless test results are received which indicate the plasma is
free of any bacterial or viral occurrences. If results of the testing indicate
any bacterial or viral presence, the Company now has various customers who use
such plasma for diagnostic and/or research purposes. If the plasma cannot be
sold as source plasma or specialty plasma, it is generally destroyed. The
Company operates primarily under its own STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES which has
been approved by the FDA. These procedures which all employees are required to
follow, carefully spell out all safety related instructions. In accordance with
such procedures, all initial donors are given a physical examination before
being accepted as a plasma donor. Additionally, every time the donor donates, he
is tested for the presence of blood borne pathogens such as hepatitis B,
hepatitis C, HIV (antigen and antibody) and liver enzymes (indication of liver
disease, such as other types of hepatitis). The donor is also checked for serum
protein content and hematocrit (percent of red blood cells in serum). These
tests serve as a safety mechanism for both the donor and the plasma. New donors
are also checked for syphilis and drug use. Repeat donors are re-tested for
syphilis three times each year and for drug use once each year.

    All plasma collected from a donor is held until the results of his viral
tests are completed. If a donor has a reactive result, all of that donor's
plasma is usually culled from the source plasma inventory. In some cases, the
fractionator operates the laboratory which performs these.

    Once the plasma arrives at the fractionation facility, all plasma containers
are checked by the fractionator's quality control staff. The unique donor number
is matched to the test results to ensure no plasma is used that has been found
reactive to viral tests. Once cleared, the fractionator processes the plasma
into its final products. That processing consists of various procedures that, in
and of themselves, reduce the presence of any microorganisms that might have
been in the plasma pool. Temperature and pH are brought to specific levels, then
the in-process products are subjected to a solvent detergent that further
reduces viral activity. There are a number of additional steps, depending on the
product, including dry heat, acetone drying, lyophilizing and membrane
filtration that all reduce the presence of any microorganisms. Some
fractionators actually perform further testing both on in-process products and
final products, so sensitive, that the presence of any single microorganism will
be detected.

    None of the source plasma or hyperimmune plasma collected by SeraCare, Inc.
is given to end users without first being processed by a fractionator.

    Donor safety is very important to the Company. Accordingly, operating
procedures require that donors have the process thoroughly explained, including
the hazards and side effects and that an informed consent form be signed by each
donor The Company does extensive training of employees in order to insure the
safety of its donors.

INJECTABLE PLASMA PRODUCTS

    SOURCE PLASMA is the base raw material used to manufacture many injectable
therapeutic products, the most important of which are:

    NORMAL SERUM ALBUMIN AND PLASMA PROTEIN FRACTION, which are primarily used
to keep vessel walls from collapsing following major injury, as blood volume
expanders and as a protein replacement. They are used:

    - to treat shock due to trauma or hemorrhage;

    - to treat fluid loss due to severe burns;

                                       10
<PAGE>
    - in cardiovascular surgery;

    - to treat liver and kidney diseases; and

    - as a carrier for many other injectable solutions.

    IMMUNE GLOBULINS, which are used to strengthen the immune system in order to
fight off common diseases such as:

    - Suppressed immune systems in cases of organ transplants, HIV and other
      immune deficiencies;

    - Hepatitis B;

    - Tetanus;

    - Rabies, whooping cough, measles and polio; and

    - Other immune related diseases.

    ANTIHEMOPHILIC FACTORS, which are specific proteins found in plasma that are
an integral part of the blood clotting mechanism. Persons born with an absence
or a deficient amount of the protein suffer from hemophilia, types A, B, or Von
Willebrand's Disease.

    RH IMMUNE GLOBULIN, which is a substance administered to prevent
incompatibilities between the blood of a fetus and mother. Rh incompatibility
occurs when an Rh-negative woman is pregnant with an Rh-positive fetus. This
occurs in 9-10% of pregnancies. If no preventive measures are taken, 0.7-1.8% of
Rh-negative women with an Rh-positive fetus will become isoimmunized
antenatally, developing Rh (D) antibody through exposure to fetal blood; 8-15%
will become isoimmunized at birth, 3-5% after abortion (spontaneous or
therapeutic), and 2.1-3.4% after amniocentesis. Rh(D) isoimmunization currently
occurs at a rate of about 1.5 per 1000 births. Its effects on the fetus or
newborn include hemolytic anemia, hyperbilrubinemia, kernicterus, or
intrauterine deaths due to hydrous fetalis. About 45% of cases require
intrauterine or exchange transfusions to survive, and there are about four
deaths from this disease per 100,000 total births. The prevalence of Rh(D)
isoimmunization has declined significantly following the introduction of Rh(D)
immune globulin.

    The administration of Rh(D) immune globulin to these women prevents maternal
sensitization and subsequent hemolytic disease in Rh-positive infants. RhIG must
be administered after abortion, amniocentesis, ectopic pregnancy, and antepartum
hemorrhage, as well as after delivery.

NON-INJECTABLE PLASMA PRODUCTS

    A secondary use of plasma is to manufacture certain diagnostic products
which are for the most part non- injectable. Some of the primary diagnostic
products are:

    - BLOOD GROUPING AND TYPING REAGENTS which are used by blood banks to match
      donor blood with the recipient.

    - LABORATORY CONTROL REAGENTS which are used by laboratories to assure the
      quality control of their tests.

    - SPECIAL TEST KIT REAGENTS which are derived from the plasma of donors
      known to have a specific disease and are used in the laboratory as a
      positive control test.

SPECIALTY PLASMAS

    Specialty Plasmas generally contain high concentrations of specific
antibodies and are used primarily to manufacture immune globulin therapeutic
products which bolster the immunity of patients to fight a particular infection
or to treat certain immune system disorders. Following advances in intravenous
therapy in the mid-1980s, use of specialty plasmas for therapeutic purposes
significantly increased. Among

                                       11
<PAGE>
the current uses for specialty plasmas are the production of products to prevent
hepatitis, Rh incompatibility in newborns, tetanus and rabies. Specialty plasmas
are also widely used for diagnostic and tissue culture purposes. Depending on
the rarity of the antibody or medical history of the donor, the pricing for
specialty plasmas currently ranges from $95 to about $6,000 per liter. Most
specialty plasma is derived serendipitously (not the result of stimulation)
which poses no abnormal risk to the plasma collector.

    The Company currently collects and sells both source plasma and specialty
plasmas, including Cytomegalovirus Antibody Plasma (CMV), Tetanus Antibody
Plasma and various other specialty antibody plasma. The Company has initiated a
program that emphasizes the collection of specialty plasmas by identifying
potential specialty plasma donors through various screening and testing
procedures.

                              THE PLASMA INDUSTRY

    The blood resource industry can be divided into two industry segments. One
is the non-profit or voluntary sector which is commonly thought of as the
American Red Cross and various independent non-profit blood centers. This
"non-profit" sector is primarily concerned with providing whole blood and
components of whole blood for transfusion in medical applications at hospitals.
The other is the commercial or "for-profit" segment and is composed primarily of
plasma collection centers. This "for-profit" commercial sector currently
consists of about 450 plasma collection centers throughout the United States
which collect plasma from paid donors and sell the plasma to Fractionators, who
produce plasma derivative products or fractions that are used in therapeutics.
These plasma collection centers are owned by both foreign and U.S. fractionators
and by independent companies such as SeraCare, Inc., who sell to diagnostic
companies and fractionators.

PLASMA MARKET

    The source plasma industry has experienced a number of fluctuations in the
supply and demand cycles. In the Company's opinion, the market factors currently
driving the plasma industry include the following:

    - The expanded use of immune globulins to prevent and treat disease.

    - The worldwide plasma shortage of plasma which has been made worse by the
      impact of the "Mad Cow" decease in England which resulted in the stopping
      of all plasma collection activities within that country and the
      replacement of such plasma from the US.

    - Extensive public concern over the safety of blood products which has led
      to increased domestic and foreign regulatory control over the collection
      and testing of plasma and the disqualification of certain segments of the
      population from the donor pool.

    - The continuing increase in the uses of plasma as the source material for
      new treatments and applications such as fibrin glue, a growth agent for
      microbiotics, and vaccines.

    - The increased demand for plasma based healthcare products worldwide which
      has led to expansion of fractionation capacity.

    - The barriers to entry into the fractionation and plasma collection
      business which includes an extensive FDA and ABRA approval process which
      can take years to complete.

    The Company believes that a significant worldwide shortage of plasma has
developed which could last three to five years. This accelerating shortage is
being driven by a series of factors including: the shutdown of plasma collection
in England resulting from "Mad Cow" decease issues; the expanding fractionation
capacity worldwide resulting from the increased need for plasma components to
treat larger and older populations; and, a diminished pool of donors that
resulted from more restrictive testing and screening requirements imposed by
regulatory authorities. In 1998, the FDA introduced the "Applicant Donor
Program" which required first time donors to donate a second time before the
first donation can be sold.

                                       12
<PAGE>
This new requirement has caused a decrease in liters of source plasma available
for sale. Another market factor has been increasing public concern over HIV and
other viruses, which has lead to increased testing and tighter screening
processes. And finally, the Company believes that there is a direct correlation
between the economy and the donor pools, wherein as the economy gets better, it
becomes harder to maintain donor pools and attract new donors.

    The Company has generally sold its plasma under contracts ranging from one
to five years, which allow for annual pricing renegotiations. Pricing for
product deliveries is generally mutually agreed upon prior to the beginning of
the contract year and fixed for that year. Consequently, the Company may be
adversely or beneficially affected if its costs of collecting and selling plasma
rise or fall during the year as a result of changes in government regulation,
donor fees or other factors.

FRACTIONATORS

    Fractionation is the process of separating the raw source plasma into a
variety of derivative products (see "The Product" above). Prior to being
fractionated, source plasma is blended into pools of 4,500 to 10,000 liter units
from many different donor sources.

    The four leading fractionators in the United States are:

                               CURRENT OPERATIONS

CURRENT PLASMA CENTERS

    As of April 30, 2000, the Company had thirty four plasma collection centers
in operation which were located in: Las Vegas, Nevada; Clarkesville, Tennessee;
Phoenix, Arizona(2); Ft. Smith, Arkansas; Clearfield, Utah; Raleigh, North
Carolina; Pasco, Washington; Toledo, Ohio; Macon, Georgia; Savannah, Georgia;
Reno, Nevada; South Bend, Indiana; Kalamazoo, Michigan; Boise, Idaho; Pocatello,
Idaho; Salt Lake City, Utah; Amarillo, Texas; Beaumont, Texas; Longview, Texas;
Houston, Texas (4); Casa Grande, Arizona; Pasadena, Texas; Mesa, Arizona; Baton
Rouge, Louisiana; Port Arthur, Texas; Wilmington, Delaware; Lancaster,
Pennsylvania; Reading, Pennsylvania; Allentown, Pennsylvania; and Laredo, Texas.
The Company is also in the initial stages of establishing two new centers which
are expected to be operational during the next three to six months. During
fiscal year 2000, such centers processed about 626,000 donations of plasma.

DONORS

    FDA standards restrict the frequency in which a donor may give plasma to
twice a week or 104 times per year. Most regular donors donate between 40 and 60
times per year.

    The QPP certification program is focused on excluding drug or alcohol
addicts or homeless persons by requiring proof of permanent address as well as
alcohol and drug use testing.

                                       13
<PAGE>
MARKETING/DONOR RECRUITMENT

    Effective recruitment, management and retention of donors are essential to
the Company's plasma business. The Company seeks to attract and retain its donor
base in the following ways:

    - by utilizing competitive financial incentives which the Company offers for
      the donation of the plasma.

    - by providing outstanding customer service to its donors.

    - by implementing programs designed to attract donors through education as
      to the uses of plasma.

    - by encouraging regular participation in its donor programs.

    - by providing incentives to encourage donors to return.

    Repeat donors are important because of the lower cost associated with
obtaining their plasma and less risk that their plasma will not satisfy
regulatory and customer requirements. The Company's centers advertise for donors
through targeted mailings, flyers and newspapers. Radio and television ads are
also used when advantageous.

    The Company's donor records are maintained with the assistance of donor
database systems at each center which allows the Company's personnel to track
the frequency of donor visits. When a donor has not visited a center in over one
month, the center sends a reminder card to the donor emphasizing the importance
of the donor's continued participation.

DONOR PROCESSING

    On their first visit all new donors are given a physical examination by
either a licensed physician or physician substitute. The National Donor Deferral
Registry and the deferral lists of the Fractionators and other local plasma
centers are all checked to determine if the donor has ever had positive viral
test results or has ever been previously deferred or rejected as a donor. In
addition to the deferral list checks, each time the donor visits, the donor is
given the opportunity to defer himself confidentially and is asked a number of
screening questions which he must audibly answer. In addition, each time he
visits, the donor is tested for: blood pressure; temperature; pulse; weight;
hematocrit; total proteins; HIV; hepatitis B and C; and liver enzymes.

QUALITY AND OPERATIONAL CONTROLS

    Through its QPP and internal operating procedures and policies, the Company
strives to maintain a high level of quality control. The Company's policies
require that donor charts be audited on a daily basis, and that equipment be
regularly re-calibrated. Quality control records and procedures are maintained
at a detailed level.

TRAINING

    The Company is focusing on two levels of training: (a) technical training of
employees; and (b) center management skills and development.

    All employees are required to read and study detailed training materials and
are then given a written test covering that material. Results of the written
tests must be kept available for FDA inspection. Employees are also required to
demonstrate specific skills to an FDA-certified trainer. Each level of an
employee's training is tracked and documented and each employee is required to
be re-tested on all material every six months. All employees are "cross trained"
in all three of the center's functional areas, allowing for more efficient
scheduling. Ongoing or continuing education sessions are periodically held to
review new procedures, equipment and FDA requirements. All training
documentation is subject to FDA approval.

                                       14
<PAGE>
    It is the Company's philosophy to continually develop competent individuals
within the Company to move into management positions. Selected individuals are
sent to outside management development seminars in addition to the in-house
program of development. Consequently, all of the open manager positions during
the past three years have been filled with existing in-house personnel.

EMPLOYEES

    As of April 30, 2000, the Company employed 543 full time employees and 44
part time employees. The Biologics Division employed 476 full time and 41 part
time employees. Each location in the Biologics Division has at least one nurse
and/or nurse substitute and the balance are cross-trained as technicians,
receptionists and phlebotomists. The Western States Plasma Division employed 18
full time employees and one part time employee. The Consolidated Technologies
Division employed 49 full time employees and two part time employees. Corporate
office consisted of eight full time employees as of April 30, 2000.

    The Company believes that the relations between the Company's management and
its employees are good, although there can be no assurances that such relations
will continue. The inability of the Company to attract or retain qualified
personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

    As of April 30, 2000, the Company occupied thirty nine locations with
executive offices at 1925 Century Park East, Suite 1970, in Los Angeles; Western
States Division in Oceanside, California; Plasma Lab in Austin, Texas; and
thirty seven plasma center locations in: Las Vegas, Nevada; Clarksville,
Tennessee; Phoenix, Arizona(2); Ft. Smith, Arkansas; Clearfield, Utah; Raleigh,
North Carolina; Pasco, Washington; Toledo, Ohio; Macon, Georgia; Savannah,
Georgia; Reno, Nevada; South Bend, Indiana; Kalamazoo, Michigan; Boise, Idaho;
Pocatello, Idaho; Salt Lake City, Utah; Amarillo, Texas; Beaumont, Texas;
Longview, Texas; Houston, Texas (4); Casa Grande, Arizona; Pasadena Texas; Mesa,
Arizona; Phoenix, Arizona; Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Port Arthur, Texas;
Wilmington, Delaware; Lancaster, Pennsylvania; Reading, Pennsylvania; Allentown,
Pennsylvania; Danville, Virginia; Providence, Rhode Island; and Laredo, Texas.
All of the Company's facilities are leased from unaffiliated parties under
leases expiring through 2009 and comprising approximately 190,000 square feet.
Most of these leases contain renewal options which permit the Company to renew
the leases for periods of from two to five years at the then fair rental value.
The Company believes that in the normal course of its business it will be able
to renew or replace its existing leases. The Company believes that the space it
occupies is adequate for its current operations.

    The Company's plasma collection centers range in size from approximately
2,950 to 7,500 square feet and generally are located in population centers of
60,000 to 1,000,000 people.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

    There are no material pending legal proceedings, other than routine
litigation occurring in the normal course of the Company's operations, to which

Those factors, risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the
positioning of the Company's products in the Company's market segment; the
Company's ability to effectively manage its various businesses in a rapidly
changing environment; new competition for donors and customers; the inability of
the Company to obtain FDA approval of newly established centers; and the
introduction of synthetic products which could eliminate the need for plasma
products.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  FISCAL YEAR ENDING FEBRUARY 29, 2000 VS FISCAL YEAR ENDING FEBRUARY 28, 1999

REVENUE

    Revenue increased by $13,072,796 to $62,771,003, an increase of 26 percent.
The primary contributors to the increase were: the Biologics Division due to
improved pricing for plasma and an increased volume of plasma collected during
the current fiscal year; and the Western States Plasma Division which added a
significant number of new plasma products. The Company collected about 502,000
liters of plasma during the year ended February 29, 2000 compared to about
423,000 for the comparable prior period or an increase of 18 percent. The
increased volumes were mainly the result of the continued ramp-up of newly
established centers and increases in certain mature centers as a result of
increased donor promotions. The increased volumes in these centers were
partially offset by decreases in certain centers which resulted from a
restructuring of the Company's quality assurance and compliance program which
involved employee training and other necessary actions which were deemed
necessary to insure FDA Compliance.

GROSS PROFIT

    Gross profit increased by $1.4 million or 13 percent in 2000 to $11,942,071.
The Biologics Division contributed an increase of $2.2 million due primarily to
the increased plasma prices mostly offset by an increase in the direct cost of
operating plasma collection centers, while the Western States Plasma Division
contributed an increase of $.5 million due to the increased sales partially
offset by a narrowing of profit margins on certain commodity type products. The
Consolidated Technologies Division reflected a decrease of $1.3 million due
mainly to increases in direct manufacturing costs. As a result of the
aforementioned, the gross profit percentage decreased from 21.3% in fiscal 1999
to 19% in fiscal 2000.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

    General and Administrative expenses for fiscal year 2000 were higher by
$2,689,442 or 64 percent. This increase was primarily due to the increased
salaries and travel associated with complying with the increased quality control
and compliance standards established by the FDA. In addition, salaries and
expenses were higher in Western States Plasma due to a restructuring of
marketing and sales in order to establish a more focused attention on customers
and opportunities. The Company also experienced higher legal and professional
fees; increased travel expenses; increased salary and related benefits expenses;
and, higher general insurance costs.

INTEREST EXPENSE / NON-CASH INTEREST EXPENSE

    Interest expense increased by $868,902 in fiscal 2000 as a result of the
increased debt during the year, primarily the senior debt facility which was
increased to $22.0 million in July 1999. Included in interest expense is
$1,322,405 of amortization of the deferred bond offering costs related to the
issuance of the $16 million subordinated debentures.

OTHER ITEMS

    Other income for the current year includes a $269,212 gain from the sale of
CTI. Other income for the prior year includes a $534,000 gain from the sale of
certain properties during the year.

INCOME TAXES

    No federal taxes were paid or accrued during the year due to the
availability of various loss carryforwards and deferred tax credits. The taxes
reflected are for the various state income taxes paid.

INCOME BEFORE CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD

    As a result of the above, income before the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting method for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 was $141,732
compared to $2,705,002 for the same prior year period.

CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD

    Effective March 1, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-5
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities" (SOP 98-5) issued by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. SOP 98-5 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, and requires that the costs of
start-up activities be expensed as incurred. Accordingly, the Company wrote off
$719,903 (net of $44,634 of tax benefit) of start-up costs that had been
previously capitalized and was included in other assets as of February 28, 1999.
In accordance with SOP 98-5, the write-off of such costs is being reported as a
cumulative effect of a change in accounting method and prior periods have not
been restated.

NET INCOME

    As a result of the above, there was a net loss for the fiscal year ended
February 29, 2000 of $578,171 compared to an income of $2,705,002 in 1999.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    As of February 29, 2000, the Company's current assets exceeded current
liabilities by, $8,126,398 compared to $9,723,584 in the year earlier date. The
use of cash during the year was consistent with the Company's strategic plan for
strong growth and the Company feels that progress has been made during the
period. With a continuation of a strategic focus on growth, the short-term
impact on the Company's earnings and cash flow has been to defer profitability
and positive cash flows. The Company believes, however, that the acquisitions of
American Plasma, Inc. in July 1998 and the purchase of certain of the operating
assets of Amex Plasma Management, Inc. in October 1998, the continuing ramp-up
of the newly established centers and the newly established strategic alliance
with Centeon Bio-Services, Inc. represent substantial progress toward becoming a
significant company within the plasma products industry. While the increased
costs related to FDA and regulatory compliance have had a significant impact on
profitability during the current year, demand for plasma and plasma based
products continues to be strong and the Company expects pricing for plasma to
improve.

    The Company believes that industry wide, plasma pricing and plasma products
demand will continue to strengthen in future periods as a result of the evolving
shortage of plasma and the continued expansion of the uses and demand for plasma
based products. Increased plasma pricing from the Company's principal customers
are expected to combine with more favorable pricing on softgoods and testing to
generate improved profit margins. The Company continues to believe that demand
for plasma and plasma products will continue to accelerate through calendar 2000
and 2001 and has accordingly positioned itself in a strong growth posture in
order to be able to benefit from the strong increased demand. The Company
believes that recent occurrences in the plasma industry such as the "Mad Cow"
disease in Great Britain, and the recent restoration of fractionation capacity
throughout the world have added significantly to the expected shortage of
supply. With this background, the Company continues to focus on growth in the
volume of plasma collected in order to capitalize on the anticipated market
conditions. The Company continues to benefit from the acquisition of the Western
States Division which has provided worldwide marketing of plasma and plasma
products in both the therapeutic and diagnostic segments of the plasma products
industry. The plasma collection center startups and acquisitions during the past
two years are reflective of the Company's commitment to growth. Meanwhile, the
Company's projected capital requirements for the coming year include the
establishment of at least two more plasma centers and the establishment of a
manufacturing facility within Western States for the manufacture of bulk plasma
products and serums. The sale of substantially all of the operating assets of
Consolidated Technologies on February 29, 2000 was a strategic decision in order
to reduce long-term debt and restructure the Company along business segment
lines.

    Net cash used in operating activities during the fiscal year ended
February 29, 2000 was $812,477 compared to $7,184,767 during the same prior year
period. This was due primarily to the increases in inventory partially offset by
the increases in accounts payable.

    Cash flows provided by investing activities for the fiscal year ending
February 29, 2000 was $9,116,433 compared to $12,752,787 used in the comparable
prior year period. The cash provided was primarily the result of the sale of
CTI, while the prior year amount used was primarily the result of the
acquisition of American Plasma, Inc.

    Cash flow used in financing activities was $7,861,514 for the current year
period compared to $15,283,256 provided in the comparable prior period. The
current year amount was primarily the result of the repayment of debt with the
proceeds from the sale of CTI. The prior year amount provided was primarily the
borrowing required for the acquisition of American Plasma, Inc.

    The Company had net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately
$.7 million as of February 29, 2000, which will expire in various amounts
through the year 2019. Certain of these loss carry-forwards have resulted in a
deferred tax asset of approximately $.3 million. Based upon historical operating
results, management has determined it cannot conclude it is more likely than not
that the deferred tax is

                                       19
<PAGE>
realizable. Accordingly, a 100% valuation reserve allowance has been provided
against the deferred tax asset.

    In conjunction with the sale of Consolidated Technologies on February 29,
2000, the Company used $4.5 million to repay the subordinated debt and
$6.0 million to repay the term portion of the senior debt. $1.675 million is
being held in escrow in accordance with certain adjustment provisions in the
Asset Purchase Agreement. The balance of the proceeds were used for working
capital and to reduce the amount of the revolving credit facility.

    As a result of the increased costs of collecting plasma and the increased
difficulty in attracting new donors to both the startup and mature plasma
collection centers due in part to the strong economy, the Company may experience
cash flow shortfalls from time to time. While the long-term prognosis is for
steadily improving prices which will ultimately exceed the increased cost of
collecting plasma, there can be no guarantees that internally generated cash
flow and the existing $15 million senior credit facility will be sufficient to
meet the Company's working capital requirements for fiscal 2001. As of
February 29, 2000, the Company had $1.8 million available under the current
senior credit facility. Any significant expansion or acquisitions beyond those
currently budgeted will need to be funded by a combination of internally
generated cash flows, short-term bridge financing, private placements, and/or a
possible public offering. In addition, the Company is continuing to evaluate
various alternatives for restructuring its current debt position and enhancing
shareholder value. See Note 6 for future payments of long-term debt.

    As of February 29, 2000 the Company was in violation of one covenant
pertaining to the senior credit facility and is in dicussions with this lender
regarding obtaining a waiver.

    In addition, on February 29, 2000, the Company was not in compliance with
the covenants relating to the subordinated debentures. The lender has waived the
covenant default as of February 29, 2000 and has indicated the covenants would
be amended so that the Company would be in compliance with the note agreements
in the future.

INFLATION

    Management believes that inflation generally causes an increase in sales
prices with an offsetting unfavorable effect on the cost of products sold and
other operating expenses. Accordingly, with the possible impact on interest
rates, management believes that inflation will have no significant effect on the
Company's results of operations or financial condition.

YEAR 2000

    The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. This could
result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations,
including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions,
send invoices or engage in other normal business activities. The Company
experienced no problems as a result of the year 2000 issue. However, there can
be no assurance that there will be no problems in the future.

ITEM 12.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

BRIDGE LOANS TO THE COMPANY FROM RELATED PARTIES.

    In September 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with a related
party, approved by the Board of Directors, which provided for a bridge loan of
$1,250,000. Interest was payable monthly at eleven and one-half percent per
annum. In December 1998, the bridge loan was repaid in full and the company
issued 193,750 five-year warrants to purchase shares at $4.50 per share in
accordance with the terms of such bridge loan.

    In January 1998, the Company entered into agreements with related parties,
approved by the Board of Directors, which provided for bridge loans totaling
$599,000. The related parties consisted of: Sam Anderson, a director who loaned
$133,000; Dr. Nelson Teng, a director who loaned $130,000; Chang Ming Teng,
father of Dr. Nelson Teng who loaned $50,000; Ezzat Jallad, a director who
loaned $50,000; Stranco Investments Ltd, an investment fund managed by Ezzat
Jallad a director which loaned $200,000; and Peggy Burdick, wife of Jerry
Burdick an officer and director who loaned $36,000. Interest was payable monthly
at ten percent per annum. In connection with the 1998 bridge loans, the Company
granted the holders warrants to purchase 599,000 shares of restricted common
stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share, which approximated the fair
market value of the shares on the date of grant. In February 1998, these
warrants were exchanged for 299,500 shares of restricted common stock. Except
for $80,000 to Nelson Teng and $43,000 to Samuel Anderson, the loans were repaid
in May 1998.

    At various times during the year ended February 28, 1998, the Company
entered into agreements with Mr. Barry Plost, the Company's president, which
provided for loans totaling $1,125,000, which were all outstanding at
February 28, 1998. These loans were due upon demand, and were secured by all the
assets of the Company. The loans accrued interest at ten and twelve percent per
annum. In connection with these loans, the Company granted options to its
president to purchase 742,500 and 116,000 shares of restricted common stock at
$2.00 and $3.00 per share, which was at the then fair market value,
respectively. In addition, in conjunction with the January 1998 bridge, the
Company's president made a bridge loan to the Company totaling $200,000. Terms
of the bridge loan agreement were exactly the same as the terms other bridge
loans made by related parties in January 1998 (see above). In February 1998 the
warrants received in connection with the bridge loan were exchanged for 100,000
shares of restricted stock. In May 1998, the

                                       25
<PAGE>
Company repaid $1.0 million of such loans and in July 1998 repaid an additional
$250,000. In December 1998 in conjunction with the newly obtained senior debt
facility with Brown Brothers & Harriman and State Street Bank, Mr. Plost signed
a subordination agreement relating to $472,500, whereby Mr. Plost agreed to
forego payment until all senior debt had been paid in full. As of February 29,
2000, $472,500 was outstanding. The currently outstanding balance is subject to
a subordination agreement whereby such amount cannot be repaid until the senior
lenders have been paid in full.

    On March 24, 1999, the Company issued to Mr. Plost 839,011 fully vested 5
year warrants with an exercise price of $4.25 in conjunction with various bridge
loans made to the Company.

SERIES A WARRANTS

    The Company issued 940,000 Series A Warrants in connection with the two
private placements dated June 1, 1996 and October 1, 1996. Each warrant allows
the holder to purchase one share of common stock of the Company at $2.75. The
Series A Warrants were exercisable immediately and will terminate on the earlier
of six years from the date of issuance or three years from the date of the
initial effectiveness of an "Initial Registration Statement" under Securities
Act of 1933. The Initial Registration Statement is required to register the
shares issued in conjunction with both private placements and the common stock
underlying Series A Warrants. The Series A Warrants provide for adjustments
consisting of a reduction of the exercise price of each Series A Warrant by $.10
upon the 270th day following the October 23, 1996 and for each subsequent month
thereafter until the Company effectuates such registration. Such reduction is
subject to a floor of $1.50. The Warrants are redeemable by the Company at $.01
per share, upon thirty days notice, if the common stock is publicly traded and
the average of the closing price per share of the common stock for each of the
twenty consecutive trading days immediately prior to the mailing of such
notification and for each day thereafter until the redemption date shall have
exceeded 133.3% of the then existing exercise price. No call for redemption can
be made unless the Company has an effective registration statement on file
relating to the common stock issued in conjunction with the private placements
and the common stock underlying Series A Warrants. During the year ended
February 28, 1998, the Company offered the holders of these warrants a cashless
exchange of one share of stock for two warrants. Holders of 615,000 warrants
(230,000 of which were held by officers and directors of the Company), elected
to receive 307,500 shares of restricted common stock (115,000 were received by
officers and directors of the Company). As of February 28, 1998, 325,000
warrants remained outstanding. In July 1998, the holders of the remaining
325,000 Series A Warrants exercised their option and acquired 325,000 shares of
the Company's common stock.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
SeraCare, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SeraCare, Inc.
and subsidiaries as of February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SeraCare, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in the Summary of Accounting Policies, in fiscal 2000 the Company
changed its method of accounting for the costs of start-up activities.

    (b) Non-cash investing and financing activities:

        During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000, the Company issued
        500,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $2,359,375 to
        acquire six plasma centers.

        In August, 1999, all 15,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
        Stock, $.001 par value, were converted into 375,000 shares of common
        stock.

        During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000, the Company issued
        warrants to purchase 127,646 shares of common stock to the holders of
        the senior subordinated debentures in accordance with a provision under
        the Securities Purchase Agreement, which allowed the Company to borrow
        additional funds relating to the deferral of two quarterly interest
        payments. The fair value of these warrants of $377,102 was capitalized
        as additional deferred bond offering cost.

        In addition, in February, 2000, the Company issued warrants to purchase
        100,000 shares of common stock to the holders of the senior subordinated
        debentures in exchange for renegotiating covenants in the Securities
        Purchase Agreement. The fair value of these of warrants of $230,000 was
        capitalized as additional deferred bond offering cost.

        During fiscal 1999, the Company entered agreements for the sale of four
        real estate properties for a combined selling price of $975,000. In
        conjunction with such sales, the acquiring company assumed a mortgage of
        $173,109 and the Company retained a note receivable of $608,169.

        On October 31, 1998, the Company acquired a plasma collection center in
        exchange for 50,000 shares of common stock and 50,000 warrants which
        were valued at $149,227 for purposes of accounting for the transaction.

                             financial statements.

                         SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

    SeraCare, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, was formed on
November 8, 1991. The business of the Company is currently carried out through
its wholly-owned subsidiaries AVRE, Inc., a Nevada corporation, BHM Labs, Inc.,
an Arkansas corporation, Binary Associates, Inc., a Colorado corporation,
SeraCare Acquisitions, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Western States, Inc., a
California corporation, SeraCare Technology, Inc. ("STI"), a Nevada corporation
and American Plasma, Inc., a Texas corporation. STI owned the assets known as
CTI which were sold on February 29, 2000 (see Note 15).

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The operating results of CTI are included
with those of the Company for the two-year period ended February 29, 2000. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

    The Company's policy is to record revenue upon shipment of its products. The
Company generally sells its plasma to fractionators under long-term contracts. A
fractionator is a company that manufactures pharmaceutical and diagnostic
products by processing the raw source plasma into a variety of derivative
products. The Company receives advance payments from customers. The revenue
related to these advance payments has been deferred until actual shipment of the
plasma and is presented as deferred income in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet.

INVENTORY

    Inventory, which primarily consists of blood plasma collected from donors,
is valued at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value). Cost is
determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

    Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of five to ten years.
Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and are amortized using the
straight-line method, over the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the
property or the lease term, not to exceed ten years.

INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE

    The Company had a 50% interest in a joint venture, which it accounted for
using the equity method of accounting This joint venture recorded sales of
$6.2 million and $5.8 million and net income of $1.5 million and $1.4 million
for the years ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, respectively. The
interest in the joint venture was included in the sale of the CTI assets on
February 29, 2000.

INCOME TAXES

    Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which

                                      F-8
<PAGE>
                        SERACARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation
allowance is provided when management cannot determine whether or not it is more
likely that the net deferred tax asset will be realized. The effect on deferred
tax assets and liabilities of a change in the rates is recognized in income in
the period that includes the enactment date.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

    For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to
be cash equivalents.

REORGANIZATION VALUE IN EXCESS OF AMOUNTS ALLOCABLE TO IDENTIFIABLE ASSETS

    Under the principles of "fresh-start" reporting, the Company allocated total
reorganization value among identifiable tangible and intangible assets on the
basis of their estimated fair values. The remaining amount is classified as
reorganization value in excess of amounts allocable to identifiable assets and
is being amortized over twenty years. The Company evaluates and assesses the
overall recoverability of this asset by determining if the unamortized balance
can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows.

FDA LICENSES

    Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") licenses which are required to operate
a plasma center, are assigned a value based on either the fair market value of
acquiring a FDA license or the incremental costs incurred during the FDA
licensing approval process, not to exceed the fair market value. The Company
evaluates and assesses the overall recoverability of an FDA license by
determining if the unamortized balance can be recovered through undiscounted
future operating cash flows. Management believes that as long as the Company
continues to demonstrate compliance, an FDA license has an unlimited useful
life. Accordingly, the FDA licenses are being amortized using the straight-line
method over forty years.

DONOR BASE AND RECORDS

    Donor base and records arise from business combinations or from the costs
incurred in establishing a donor base and the required records of a new center.
These costs consist of incremental costs directly related to the processing of
new donors. The value assigned to donor base and records is established by the
Company based upon the costs incurred, not to exceed the fair market value. The
Company evaluates and assesses the overall recoverability of donor base and
records by determining if the unamortized balance can be recovered through
undiscounted future operating cash flows. Donor base and records are being
amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of twenty
years.

GOODWILL

    Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of
net assets of businesses acquired and is amortized using the straight-line
method over a period of twenty years. The Company assesses the recoverability of
its goodwill periodically by evaluating the expected undiscounted future cash
flows for individual centers to determine whether they are sufficient to support
recorded goodwill. If undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to support the
recorded asset, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the carrying value of
the goodwill based on the expected discounted cash flows of the center.

                   SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS

    Included in other assets as of February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, are
deferred financing costs of $113,626 and $383,204, respectively. These costs
relate to the fair value of options and warrants issued together with bridge
loans and notes payable. These costs are amortized over the anticipated life of
the respective financial instruments.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

    The Company calculates basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share"
("SFAS 128"). Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by
dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share
reflects the potential dilution of securities that could occur if securities or
other contracts (such as stock options, warrants, convertible debentures or
convertible preferred stock) to issue common stock were exercised or converted
into common stock.

DEFERRED BOND OFFERING COSTS

    Deferred bond offering costs represents the fair value of the warrants
issued to debenture holders and an investment banker in connection with the
$16 million debentures issued on February 13, 1998 and the related costs and
expenses of such issuance. The deferred bond offering costs are being amortized
over the seven year term of such debentures on a straight-line basis using the
bonds outstanding method.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

    The Company estimates a fair value method of accounting for stock-based
compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123). In accordance
with SFAS 123, the Company has chosen to continue to account for employee
stock-based compensation utilizing the intrinsic value method. Accordingly,
compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the
fair market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant over the amount an
employee must pay to acquire the stock.

    Also, in accordance with SFAS 123, the Company has provided footnote
disclosure with respect to stock-based employee compensation. The cost of
stock-based employee compensation is measured at the grant date based on the
value of the award and is recognized over the service period. The value of the
stock based award is determined using a pricing model whereby compensation cost
is the excess of the fair value of the stock as determined by the model at grant
date or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire
the stock.

    The Company accounts for non-employee stock based compensation by
establishing a fair value for stock options granted. Compensation cost is
measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the Company's stock over
the amount the non-employee must pay to acquire the stock and is recognized over
the anticipated service period.

ACCOUNTING 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

                                      F-10

                   SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

FAIR VALUE OF LONG-TERM DEBT

    The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, which approximates the
carrying value, is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or
similar issues.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of",
established guidelines regarding when impairment losses on long-lived assets,
which include plant and equipment and certain identifiable intangible assets,
should be recognized and how impairment losses should be measured. The Company
periodically reviews such assets for possible impairment and expected losses, if
any, are recorded currently.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

    Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year amounts to
conform to the current year presentation.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

    Effective March 1, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position 98-5,
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities," (SOP 98-5) issued by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. SOP 98-5 requires that the
costs of start-up activities, including organization costs, be expensed as
incurred. Start-up activities are defined broadly as those one-time activities
related to opening a new facility, introducing a new product or service,
conducting business in a new territory, conducting business with a new class of
customer (excluding ongoing customer acquisition costs, such as policy
acquisition costs and loan origination costs) or beneficiary, initiating a new
process in an existing facility, or commencing some new operation.

    As of March 1, 1999, the Company wrote off the approximate $720,000 (net of
$44,600 of tax benefits) of start-up costs that had been previously capitalized
and included in other assets. In accordance with SOP 98-5, the write-off of
costs is being reported as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting method
and prior periods have not been restated.

1.  BUSINESS OPERATIONS

GENERAL

COMPANY HISTORY

    SeraCare, Inc. ("SeraCare" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Delaware in 1991 and changed its name from American Blood
Institute, Inc. to SeraCare, Inc. effective February 6, 1996.

    During fiscal 2000, the Company consisted of three divisions: Consolidated
Technologies Division ("CTI") which is a manufacturer of controls and
calibrators; Western States Plasma Division which is a "Value Added Distributor"
with worldwide marketing including a European and Asian presence; and, the
Biologics Division which collects and sells source plasma to manufacturers of
therapeutic and diagnostic products.

    With the sale of substantially all of the operating assets of CTI as of
February 29, 2000, the Company has reorganized along business lines.
Organizationally, the Company now consists of two business segments, the
Therapeutic Products Segment and the Diagnostic Products Segment. The
Therapeutic Products Segment consists primarily of the plasma collection
operations and certain of the distribution operations which focus on the
international markets for therapeutic products. The Diagnostic Products Segment
consists primarily of that portion of the distribution operation which focuses
on the worldwide markets for diagnostic products and that portion of the plasma
collection operations which identifies and collects rare antibody and reactive
units.

ACQUISITIONS

AMERICAN PLASMA, INC.

    In July, 1998, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of American
Plasma, Inc. ("American") located in Houston, Texas. American operates eleven
plasmapheresis centers located in: Houston, Texas (4), South Houston, Texas;
Beaumont, Texas; Longview, Texas; Casa Grande, Arizona; Phoenix, Arizona; Mesa,
Arizona; and Amarillo, Texas. The total purchase price was $9,611,102.

AMEX PLASMA MANAGEMENT, INC.

    During fiscal 2000, the Company acquired six plasma centers from Amex Plasma
Management, Inc. for a total of 500,000 shares of common stock. These
transactions were valued at $2,359,375, based upon the fair value of the shares
on the dates issued.

    In October 1998, the Company acquired the operating assets of a plasma
center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana from Amex Plasma Management, Inc. for 50,000
shares of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of
common stock at $6.00 per share. This transaction was valued at $149,227, the
fair value of the shares and warrants at that date.

    All acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Accordingly, the results of operations are reported as of the effective dates of
acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to the net assets acquired
based upon fair market values at the date of acquisition. The excess purchase
price over the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is being
amortized over twenty years

3.  LINE OF CREDIT

    During December, 1998, the Company obtained a senior credit facility of
$17 million. As restructured, $7 million was established as a term loan
(Note 6) and $10 million was established as a revolving line of credit. In July,
1999, the revolving line of credit was increased to $15 million. Draws under the
revolving line of credit are limited to the sum of (a) 75% of qualifying
accounts receivable plus 50% of inventory value. At February 29, 2000,
$13,184,000 had been drawn under this line of credit. Interest accrues at a per
annum rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus .75% through
July 15, 1999 and .25% thereafter and is payable quarterly. The Company may also
elect at its option to have interest calculated based upon LIBOR plus 2.75%. The
interest rate charged the Company by the senior lender at February 29, 2000 was
9.0%. The restructured facility is secured by all the assets of the Company. The
new Note Agreement contains various covenants relating to: maintaining minimum
tangible capital base, current ratio and coverage ratio; senior indebtedness to
EBITDA; and restrictions on additional indebtedness, investments, asset sales,
mergers or other changes of control, divestitures, acquisitions, dividends and
distributions. As of February 29, 2000, the Company was in violation of one

currently in discussions with this lender regarding obtaining a waiver. The
agreement calls for restrictions on cash of $150,000. This senior credit
facility has a term ending December 1, 2000.

4.  BRIDGE LOANS FROM RELATED PARTIES

    During the year ended February 28, 1999, the Company entered into an
agreement with a related party to provide a bridge loan of $1,250,000 to the
Company to purchase the stock of American Plasma, Inc. (Note 1). Interest was
payable at 11.5 percent per annum. In connection with this loan, the Company
granted the holder warrants to purchase 193,750 shares of restricted common
stock at an exercise price of $4.50, which approximated the fair value of the
shares on the date of grant. The Company paid $25,000 of loan origination fees
related to this loan. This loan was repaid prior to February 28, 1999.

    In January 1998, the Company entered into agreements with related parties
which provided for bridge loans of $599,000. Interest is payable monthly at ten
percent per annum. These loans were repaid prior to February 29, 2000.

    At various times during the year ended February 28, 1998, the Company
entered into agreements with the Company's president, which provided for loans
totaling $1,325,000. At February 29, 2000, $472,500 of these loans remain
outstanding. These loans are due upon demand, accrue interest at ten percent and
are secured by all the assets of the Company. The outstanding balance is subject
to a subordination agreement whereby such amount cannot be repaid until the
senior lenders have been paid in full. Accordingly, this obligation has been
classified in long-term debt on the balance sheet (see Note 9).

5.  NOTES PAYABLE

    In September 1998, the Company entered into an agreement, approved by the
Board of Directors, which provided $2.0 million to the Company in connection
with the acquisition of the stock of American Plasma, Inc. (Note 1). Interest
was payable at 11.5 percent per annum. In connection with this loan, the Company
granted the holder warrants to purchase 228,683 shares of restricted common
stock at an exercise price of $4.50, which approximated the fair value of the
shares on the date of grant. The Company paid $40,000 in loan origination fees
related to this loan. This loan was repaid prior to February 28, 1999.

    During the year ended February 28, 1998, the Company entered into
agreements, approved by the Board of Directors, which provided for loans of
$808,500. These loans were due April 12, 1998. Interest was payable monthly at
ten percent per annum. $500,000 of these loans was repaid in 1998 and the
remaining $308,500 was repaid during 1999.

    In conjunction with an acquisition in 1997, the Company was obligated under
a note payable for $600,000, which had an interest rate of eight percent and was
due on October 31, 1998. The note was repaid at that time.

entered into agreements, which provided for loans totaling $1,138,447. These
loans are due upon demand and are secured by all the assets of the Company. The

6.  LONG-TERM DEBT

SENIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

    On February 13, 1998, the Company issued $16,000,000 in Senior Subordinated
Debentures with interest payable quarterly at 12%. One-third of the then
outstanding balance is due on February 13, 2003, one-half of the then
outstanding balance is due on February 13, 2004 with the remaining balance due
on February 13, 2005. In the event of certain public offerings of the Company's
securities or a change in control (as defined), the Company is required to
prepay the outstanding balance of the debentures. In addition, the Company may
prepay the debentures at any time without penalty. The debentures are senior to
all other debt but are subordinate to the senior bank debt. The debentures are
secured by all of the assets of the Company.

    During the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000, the Company issued warrants
to purchase 127,646 shares of common stock to the holders of the senior
subordinated debentures in accordance with a provision under the Securities
Purchase Agreement, which allowed the Company to borrow additional funds
relating to the deferral of two quarterly interest payments. The fair value of
these warrants of $377,102 was capitalized as additional deferred bond offering
cost.

    On February 29, 2000, $4,500,000 of the proceeds from the sale of the CTI
assets was used to reduce the principal amount of the subordinated debentures.
At February 29, 2000, $12,474,400 remained outstanding.

    As part of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company issued warrants to
the debenture holders to purchase 2,100,572 shares of common stock at $.01 per
share. These warrants were valued at the fair value at that date, which resulted
in a deferred offering cost of $7,410,400. As a result of the $4,500,000 payment
on February 29, 2000, $2,207,505 of deferred offering costs less related
accumulated amortization of $641,768 were charged against the proceeds from the
sale of CTI assets. The remaining discount is being amortized over the term of
the debt.

    The Securities Purchase Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative
covenants, including maintenance of certain minimum funded debt and fixed charge
coverage ratios and restrictions on incurring certain indebtedness and liens,
making certain dividend payments, making certain loans and advances or
investments in other persons, selling a substantial amount of assets, entering
into certain mergers or business combinations or using securities which are
senior to or pari passu with these debentures. At February 29, 2000, the Company
was not in compliance with these covenants. The lender waived covenant defaults
as of February 29, 2000 and has indicated the covenants would be amended so that
the Company would be in compliance with the note agreements in the future. The
Company granted warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at $.01 per
share to this lender in exchange for renegotiation of these covenants at
February 29, 2000. The fair value of these warrants of $230,000 was recorded as
additional deferred offering costs and will be amortized over the remaining term
of the debt.

TERM LOAN

    As discussed in Note 3, in December 1998, the senior credit facility was
restructured to include a $7.0 million term loan. Interest was payable quarterly
at a per annum rate equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus .75%
through July 15, 1999 and .50% thereafter. Principal was payable over a three
year period ending December 1, 2001. The term loan was subject to the same
covenants as the credit facility (Note 3) and was secured by all the assets of
the Company. On February 29, 2000, $6.0 million of the proceeds from the sale of
CTI assets was used to pay in full the outstanding balance under this facility.

five-year period. The first monthly installment of interest and principal
commenced on October 20, 1996 and the final installment is due on September 20,
2001. If the lease is terminated or the Company defaults on the lease, the

outstanding balance on the note payable was $16,857.

    FASB Statement 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires the
Company to provide pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per
share as if compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans had been
determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in FASB
Statement 123. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option, using
the Black Scholes method, at the weighted-average assumptions used for grants in
fiscal 2000 and 1999, dividend yield of zero percent; expected volatility of
14 percent and 13 percent; risk free interest rate of 5.24; and expected life of
5.0 years.

    The weighted average fair value of options granted during the years ended
February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 was $.84 and $.13, respectively.

10.  LEASES (CONTINUED)

    Rent expense amounted to $1,736,845 and $1,534,419 for the years ended
February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, respectively.

11.  INCOME TAXES

    The difference between the reported tax provision and the statutory rate
applied to the pre-tax income (loss) for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2000
and February 28, 1999 is primarily related to the realization of deferred tax
assets, primarily the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.

    Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between
the amount of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes
and such amounts recognized for tax purposes. As of February 29, 2000 the
Company's net loss carryforwards resulted in deferred tax assets of
approximately $.3 million. Based upon historical earnings, management was unable
to determine that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would
be realized, therefore a 100% valuation allowance was established.

    As of February 29, 2000, the Company had approximately $.7 million of
federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, of which a portion is
subject to limitation under section 381 of the Internal Revenue Code. The loss
carryforwards expire in various amounts through the year 2019.

12.  COMMITMENTS

    The Company has entered into various employment and consulting agreements
with current and previous officers and directors of the Company. The following
describes certain terms and obligations provided by the agreements entered into
by the Company with such officers and directors:

    The Company is obligated to the president under an agreement through
    February 5, 2002. The Company is obligated to the executive vice president
    under an agreement through February 6, 2003. The current annual salaries
    under these agreements are $390,000.

    Under the terms of a consulting agreement dated in April 1996, the Company
    is obligated to pay an outside director $50,000 per year. In January 1998,
    the term of such agreement was extended through March 2002.

    In connection with the acquisition of Western States Group, Inc., the
    Company is obligated under the terms of two five-year employment agreements
    dated February 13, 1998. The current annual salaries under these agreements
    are $255,000.

13.  CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK, SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS AND SALES COMMITMENTS

    During the year ended February 29, 2000, the Company sold its primary
product, plasma, on credit mainly to fractionators in the health care industry.
The plasma is processed into various immune enhancing and other pharmaceutical
products which are then sold for therapeutic applications.

    Plasma collection, storage, labeling and distribution activities are subject
to strict regulation and licensing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
("FDA"). The Company's facilities are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA.
The Company is required to obtain from each donor an informed consent regarding
the donation procedure. Failure to comply or correct deficiencies with
applicable laws or regulations could subject the Company to enforcement action,
including product seizures, recalls, center or

or more could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

    Laws and regulations with similar substantive and enforcement provisions are
also in effect in many of the states and municipalities where the Company does
business. Any change in existing federal, state or municipal laws or
regulations, or in the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the
promulgation of any additional laws or regulations could have an adverse effect
on the Company's business.

    For the years ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, approximately
42% and 32%, respectively, of the net sales were to Grupo Grifols, S.A., and
about 11% and 20%, respectively, were to Alpha Therapeutics. No other customer
represented ten percent or more of net revenue. Accounts receivable due from
Grupo Griffols, S.A. represented approximately 49% of accounts receivable as of
February 29, 2000 and 37% of accounts receivable as of February 28, 1999. One
additional customer represented 10% of accounts receivable as of February 29,
2000.

transaction for $17,406,515. In conjunction with this transaction, $5,406,515
was placed in escrow, of which $3,731,515 was converted to cash in March 2000.
The remaining $1,675,000 is being held pursuant to an adjustment provision in
the Asset Purchase Agreement. This sale resulted in a gain of $269,212, which is
included in other income. During the years ended February 29, 2000 and
February 28, 1999, revenues for CTI were $6,943,730 and $6,331,768 respectively.

    Other income at February 28, 1999, includes approximately $534,000 of gain
realized from the sale of three properties acquired as part of the American

divided, managed and conducted in two basic business segments, the Therapeutic
Products segment and the Diagnostic Products segment. These two segments were
determined by management based upon the inherent differences in the end use of
the products, the inherent differences in the value added processes made by the
Company, the differences in the regulatory requirements and the inherent
differences in the strategies required to successfully market finished products.
Operations which do not fall into either of these two segments including
unallocated corporate overhead is reported in the category "Corporate and
Other".

    The Therapeutic segment includes plasma collection and those other
activities involving the collection and/or sale of plasma to manufacturers whose
objective is the production of injectable plasma products such as albumin,
antihemophilic factors 8 and 9, and Rh Immune globulin. The Diagnostic segment
includes the manufacture and/or sale of non-injectable plasma products such as
proficiency tests, controls,

calibrators, reagents and specialty test kits. The Diagnostic segment also
includes the production and/or sale of monoclonal antibodies.

    The Company utilizes multiple forms of analysis and control to evaluate the
performance of the segments and to evaluate investment decisions. In general,
gross margin and Earnings Before Interest Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
are deemed to be the most significant measurements of performance, although
collection volumes and certain controllable costs also provide useful "early
warning signs" of future performance. The following segment financial statements
have been prepared on the same basis as the Company's consolidated financial
statements, utilizing the accounting policies described in the Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies.

    The Company's segment information as of and for the years ended
February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999 is as follows:
