Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
This Form 10-Q includes certain statements that are deemed to be
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included
in this Form 10-Q that address activities, events, or developments that the
Company expects, believes, or anticipates will or may occur in the future, are
forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions
and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception
of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and
other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Such statements
are subject to a number of assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, many of which
are beyond the control of the Company. Investors are cautioned that any such
statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results or
developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements.
Results of Operations
Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, were $4,549,607, up 3 percent from
second quarter 1999 sales of $4,431,789. The increase in second quarter sales is
primarily the result of increases in the sales volume of Lab Connections, the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary acquired in December of 1998, and general
price increases.
Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, were $9,065,057, a 2 percent
increase from the sales for the first six months of 1999 of $8,885,511. The 2
percent increase is primarily due to increases in the sales volume of the
Company's permeation products, the sales volume of Lab Connections, and general
price increases, offset somewhat by a decrease in the sales volume of the
Company's weighing products.
The Company derives its revenue from product sales and consulting services,
consisting of consulting and analytical services and standard testing performed
for various customers. In the second quarter of 2000, product sales were
$3,910,119 and consulting services were $639,488, or 86 and 14 percent,
respectively, of the Company's total second quarter 2000 sales. This compares to
product sales of $3,803,513 and consulting services of $628,276, 86 and 14
percent of total sales, in the second quarter of 1999.
For the six months ended June 30, 2000, product sales were $7,747,959 and
consulting services were $1,317,098, 85 and 15 percent, respectively, of the
Company's 2000 year-to-date sales compared to product sales of $7,787,834 and
consulting services of $1,097,677, 88 and 12 percent of total sales for the
first six months of 1999.
Gross profit was 66 percent of sales for the quarter and the six-month period
ended June 30, 2000, compared to 65 percent of sales, for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1999.
-6-
<PAGE>
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased approximately
$142,000 to 37 percent of sales in the second quarter of 2000, compared to 34
percent of sales in the second quarter of 1999. SG&A expenses were 36 percent of
sales for both the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. The increase for the
second quarter 2000 was primarily due to increases in legal fees incurred to
protect confidential information of the Company. The legal matter to which these
fees relate has been settled, and no ongoing expenses related to this matter are
expected.
Research and development (R&D) expenses as a percentage of sales were 6 percent
for the quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2000, compared to 8 percent
for the same periods in 1999. Continued R&D expenditures are necessary as the
Company develops new products and technologies to expand in its niche markets.
For the foreseeable future, the Company expects to spend on an annual basis
approximately 5 to 8 percent of sales on R&D.
Investment income increased approximately $6,000 in the second quarter of 2000
as compared to the second quarter of 1999. For the six months ended June 30,
2000, investment income increased approximately $12,000. The increase is the
result of higher average investment balances and slightly higher investment
yields in 2000.
The Company's provision for income taxes was 32 percent of income before income
taxes for the six- month period ending June 30, 2000, compared to 33.5 percent
for the same period in 1999. The Company reviews the tax rate quarterly and may
make adjustments to reflect changing estimates. Based on current operating
conditions and income tax laws, the Company expects the effective tax rate for
all of 2000 to be in a range of 31 to 33 percent.
Net income increased 13 percent to $810,395 for the second quarter of 2000,
compared to $715,822 for the second quarter of 1999. Basic net income per share
was 13 cents for the second quarter of 2000, compared to 11 cents for the same
period in 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, net income increased 14
percent to $1,604,345 compared to $1,410,267 for the six months ended June 30,
1999. Basic net income per share was 26 and 22 cents for the six-month periods
ended June 30, 2000, and 1999, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company continues to maintain a strong financial position. Total cash,
temporary cash investments and marketable securities increased approximately
$223,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2000. The Company used cash
resources to pay dividends of approximately $637,000 during the first six months
of 2000.
The Company has no long-term debt or material commitments for capital
expenditures as of June 30, 2000. The Company's plant and equipment do not
require major expenditures to accommodate a significant increase in operating
demands. The Company anticipates that a combination of its existing cash,
temporary cash investments and marketable securities, plus an expected
continuation of cash flow from operations, will continue to be adequate to fund
operations, capital equipment expenditures and dividend payments in the
foreseeable future. The Company has made acquisitions in the past, and is
continuing to look at acquisitions as a way to grow the Company.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 1999, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,
REVENUE RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. SAB No. 101 summarizes certain of
the SEC staff's views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to
revenue recognition in financial statements. The Company currently plans to
implement SAB No. 101 in the fourth quarter of 2000 and is in the process of
evaluating the impact.
During 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (as amended by SFAS No. 137 with respect to
the effective date and SFAS No. 138 with respect to certain hedging activities),
which establishes new standards for recognizing all derivatives as either assets
or liabilities, and measuring those instruments at fair value. The Company will
be required to adopt the new standard beginning with the first quarter of fiscal
2001. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this
statement. Its adoption is not expected to materially impact the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.

MOCON, INC.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk Management
Substantially all of the Company's marketable securities are at fixed interest
rates. However, almost all of the Company's marketable securities mature within
three years, therefore, the Company believes that the market risk arising from
its holding of these financial instruments is minimal.
The Company currently sells its products and services in United States dollars;
accordingly, the exposure to foreign currency exchange risk is minimal.
There have been no significant changes since December 31, 1999.
