                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

Note 1:     Interim Financial Reporting

            The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1994
            has been derived from the audited consolidated      

            balance sheet for the fiscal year then ended and is
            presented for comparative purposes.

            The accompanying financial statements presume that
            users have read the audited financial statements for
            the preceding fiscal year.  Accordingly, footnotes
            which would substantially duplicate such disclosure
            have been omitted except for contingencies.

            The interim financial statements reflect all
            adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
            necessary for a fair statement of the results for    
            the interim periods presented.  Such adjustments     
            consist solely of normal recurring accruals.

            Certain amounts appearing in the March 31, 1995
            financial statements have been reclassified to
            conform to the prior year presentation.  There was   
            no effect on net income due to the reclassification.

            The results of operations for the nine months ended
            March 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the
            results to be expected for a full year (see
            "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
            Condition and Results of Operations").

Note 2:   Contingencies

          Other than described below, no material proceedings to
          which the Company is a party, or to which any of its
          properties are subject, are pending or are known to be
          contemplated, and the Company knows of no material
          legal proceedings, pending or threatened, or judgments
          entered against any director or officer of the Company 
          in his or her capacity as such.

          In or about October 1991, an action was instituted in
          the Superior Court of New Jersey, County of Middlesex,
          against the Company by an individual seeking monies
          claimed to be due under an alleged employment          
          agreement.  The Company believes that the amount 
          sought, $3,500,000, has been frivolously asserted to
          harass the Company and that the allegations are
          completely baseless.  The Company has interposed
          counterclaims against plaintiff for fraud and related
          claims and seeks damages in the amount of $5,000,000. 

          As a result of plaintiff's poor physical condition, in
          April 1994, he moved to transfer the matter to the 
          "inactive" trial list which motion has been granted. 
          Accordingly, no further action will be taken by either
          party with respect to the matter unless and until
          plaintiff seeks to restore the matter to the active    
          trial calendar.
     
          In or about November 1992, an action was instituted
          against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York,
          County of New York, by Univest Technologies, alleging
          that the Company breached its agreement by refusing to
          furnish Soluble Aspirin to such entity.  Plaintiff
          seeks "consequential damages" of $1,500,000.  The
          Company denies that any such agreement existed
          and vigorously denies that any monies are owed to 
          plaintiff.  The Company moved to dismiss the
          complaint, which motion was granted with leave to
          replead.  Plaintiff served an amended complaint
          thereafter and the Company again moved to dismiss the
          complaint.  The Company is awaiting a decision from
          the court with respect to the Company's second motion.

          If the complaint is not dismissed, the Company intends
          to assert counterclaims against plaintiff for amounts
          in excess of the amount sought, on the basis of, among
          other things, plaintiff's fraud and misrepresentation.

          In or about July 1994, Puritan Quartz, Inc.
          ("Puritan") brought suit against the Company, in the
          U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New
          York, alleging breach of (i) the Company's purported
          contractual obligations to supply Puritan
          with acetaminophen and ibuprofen for resale to an
          unaffiliated party; and (ii) related confidentiality
          obligations.  The complaint seeks damages in the
          aggregate amount of $3,600,000, plus $300,000 for each
          additional month of continuing breach.  The Company
          denies that it has any liability to Puritan.  The
          Company believes that the clear meaning of the
          language of the agreement between the parties was that
          the agreement had a one year term, ending October 26,
          1993, prior to the events of the alleged breach, and
          that such agreement was never extended.  Accordingly, 
          in the Company's view, it had no obligation
          whatsoever to Puritan at the time of the alleged
          breach.  The Company further believes that Puritan's
          claims as to the aggregate amount of its alleged lost
          profits are overstated.  The Company has answered the
          complaint and served preliminary discovery demands
          upon Puritan, which subsequently served an amended
          complaint on the Company.  The Company has made a
          motion for dismissal of the complaint and is awaiting
          a decision from the court.

Note 4:   Dividends

     No dividends were declared during any period presented.

Note 5:   Earnings per Share

     Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number
     of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during
     the period.  Common equivalent shares consist of the
     dilutive effect of unissued shares under options, warrants
     and, in the case of fully-diluted earnings per share, 
     convertible debentures, computed using the treasury stock 
     method with the average stock prices for primary basis and 
     the higher of average or period-end stock prices for 
     fully-diluted basis.  Fully-diluted earnings per share are 
     not presented since the amounts are substantially
     the same as primary earnings per share.

Note 6:   Related Party Transactions

     The following transactions with ICC Industries Inc.
     ("ICC"), an affiliated company, are reflected in the
     consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended
     March 31, 1995 and 1994:

                                        1995             1994
Sales to ICC                         $        -     $ 7,501,000

Inventory purchases from ICC          1,019,000      10,908,000
Interest expense                        444,000         665,000

Equipment lease obligations due ICC   3,910,000       2,629,000

Note 7:     Deferred Tax Asset

    There was a reduction in the valuation allowance with a
    corresponding increase in the deferred tax asset in the nine
    months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 of $600,000 and
    $100,000, respectively, resulting from a change in
    management's estimate of the utilization of temporary
    differences caused primarily by the Company's improved
    operating results.

Note 8:   Long-Term Operating Lease

     On March 28, 1995, the Company entered into a long-term
     lease for a building located adjacent to the Company's
     present manufacturing facility.  The lease term is ten
     years with two five-year renewal options.  The lease is 
     classified as an operating lease.  The rent payments are
     $319,200 per annum for the first five years and $342,000
     for the balance of the initial ten year term.

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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

All sales revenues generated during the nine months ended March
31, 1995 were attributed to the Company's subsidiary, Private
Formulations, Inc. ("PFI").  Revenues for the nine months ended
March 31, 1995 were $45,796,000 compared to $42,168,000 in the
comparable period in the prior fiscal year.  The increase in
revenues of $3,628,000 or 9% is the result of increased sales of
existing products to current customers, new customers and line
extensions (more diverse packaging of existing products).  The
Company also manufactures branded products for other
pharmaceutical companies, although sales of such products do not
presently represent a material portion of the Company's sales. 
Two customers represent approximately 42% of the Company's sales
for the nine months ended March 31, 1995.  These two customers
are Revco D.S., Inc. ("Revco") and Walgreen Company
("Walgreen").  Sales to Revco amounted to $12,338,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1995 or 27% of total sales compared
to $7,366,000 or 17% of total sales in the comparable period in
the prior fiscal year.  Sales to Walgreen amounted to $6,703,000
or 15% of total sales for the nine months ended March 31, 1995
compared to $6,496,000 or 15% of total sales in the comparable
period in the prior fiscal year.  The increase in sales for
these two customers as well as increases in other customers was
offset somewhat by a decrease in sales in the Company's bulk
manufacturing business.

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 1995 were $13,689,000
compared to $14,310,000 in the comparable period in the prior
fiscal year.  The decrease of $621,000 resulted from an earlier
than anticipated end for the cough-cold season as well as a
reduction in sales in the Company's bulk and contract
manufacturing business.  A reduction in bulk and contract
manufacturing business, which traditionally has higher margins,
was partially offset by additional sales of the private label
business which has relatively lower margins.

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 77% for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 which approximates the percentage in
the comparable period in the prior fiscal year.  Cost of sales
as a percentage of sales increased by 3% in the three months
ended March 31, 1995 due to the reduction in contract and bulk
manufacturing business and increased selling price pressures in
the market place.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4,929,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1995 compared to $3,932,000 in
the comparable period in the prior fiscal year.  The increase of
$997,000 is due to increased marketing costs as a result of
efforts to continually expand the customer and product base and
increases in administrative costs (salaries, legal, insurance,
etc.) to support the higher sales volume.

Research and development costs were $1,095,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 compared to $374,000 in the
comparable period in the prior fiscal year.  The increase of
$721,000 is due to the Company's continued commitment to
research and development to provide for new products to fund the
Company's future growth.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
$226,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and research
and development costs increased by $215,000 due to the reasons
stated above.

Interest and other expenses were $2,775,000 for the nine months
ended March 31, 1995 compared to $2,739,000 in the comparable
period in the prior fiscal year.  Interest and other expenses
decreased by $20,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1995.

Income tax expense was $60,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 1995 compared to $807,000 in the comparable period in the
prior fiscal year.  The decrease in income tax expense of
$747,000 is the result of a lower amount of income before income
taxes and an increase in the deferred tax asset of $600,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1995 compared to $125,000 in the
comparable period in the prior fiscal year.

As stated above, revenues increased by $3,628,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the corresponding
period in the prior fiscal year.  However, if the Company's bulk
and contract manufacturing business continues to decline,
revenues for the final quarter of the current fiscal year may
fall below the amount of revenues in the comparable period of
the prior fiscal year, and it is possible that the final quarter
may not be profitable.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1995, the Company had working capital of
$11,572,000 compared to $10,376,000 at June 30, 1994.  The
increase of $1,196,000 is due to the net income for the nine
months ended March 31, 1995 and increased long-term borrowing to
fund the increased sales volume.

Inventory increased from $11,259,000 at June 30, 1994 to
$13,529,000 at March 31, 1995.  The increase is a result of an
increase in the Company's private label (store brand) sales
which requires a larger inventory than the bulk manufacturing or
contract manufacturing business.

The Company entered into new capital lease obligations with ICC
for a total value of $1,449,000.  Payments on capital leases
were $1,056,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1995. 
Payments on long-term debt totaled $351,000 for the nine months
ended March 31, 1995.

Capital expenditures were $3,100,000 for the nine months ended
March 31, 1995.  The capital expenditures have increased the
Company's operating capacity and increased efficiencies (lower
unit costs).  The Company believes that other significant
capital expenditures, if any, will be financed through capital
leases, although there can be no assurance thereof.

Stockholder's equity has increased by $1,914,000 from a capital
deficit of $1,805,000 to positive equity of $109,000 at March
31, 1995.  The increase was primarily due to the net income
generated for the nine months ended March 31, 1995.

The Company believes its working capital needs will be satisfied
by funds generated from operations at least through March 31,
1996.  Significant capital expenditures, however, will require
additional financing through capital leases or other sources. 
While the Company has, in the past, had no difficulty obtaining
capital leases for machinery, there can be no assurance the
Company will obtain the additional financing necessary for other
significant capital expenditures.
