NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The information for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 has not been
audited by independent accountants, but includes all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
a fair statement of the results for such periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been omitted pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, although the Company believes that the disclosures included in these
financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading.
The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
1995 annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The results of operations for the three-month period ending March
31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year ended December 31, 1996.
Net income per share has been computed using the weighted-average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during each period.
Common share equivalents represent the dilutive effect of outstanding stock
options.
NOTE 2 -- INVENTORIES
Inventories by major categories are summarized as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Record sales of $43.2 million were achieved in the first quarter of 1996, a 10%
increase over the first quarter 1995. The sales increases are principally a
result of the continuing increased worldwide acceptance of the fully automated,
random access IMMULITE system. The system is expected to account for the
greatest amount of growth of all the Company's product lines for the foreseeable
future. In periods when the U.S. dollar is strengthening, the effect of
translation of the financial statements of the consolidated foreign affiliates
is that of lower sales, costs and net income. The stronger U.S. dollar in the
first quarter 1996 when compared to the first quarter 1995 resulted in lowered
reported sales of approximately 1% and had a negligible effect on net income.
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 42% as compared to 44% in the
corresponding 1995 quarter. The 1996 results continue the improvement trend set
in the 1995 fourth quarter principally resulting from increased utilization at
the Wales manufacturing facility and at the New Jersey IMMULITE instrument
manufacturing facility.
Selling expenditures increased 22% in the 1996 quarter compared to the 1995
quarter representing 19% of sales in 1996 and 17% of sales in 1995. These
increased costs are a result of the continual expansion of the marketing and
sales effort, especially for the IMMULITE system.
Research and development expenditures increased 13% in 1996 over 1995. These
expenditures have increased to support the IMMULITE system.
General and administrative costs were about 11% of sales in both 1996 and 1995.
Included in general and administrative expenses is the amortization of the
excess of cost over net assets acquired.
Equity in income of affiliates, which increased 39% in the 1996 first quarter
compared to the 1995 quarter, represents the Company's share of earnings of
nonconsolidated affiliates, principally the 45%-owned Italian affiliate.
Profitability in Italy which in prior quarters had declined was modestly higher
in the 1996 quarter when compared to 1995. The other affiliates reported
increases in their first quarter net income.
The Company's effective tax rate includes Federal, state and foreign taxes. The
1996 rate of 27% approximates the 1995 rate of 27%.
The Company has adequate working capital and sources of capital to carry on its
current business and to meet its existing capital requirements. Cash flow from
operating activities was $102,000 in the first quarter 1996 compared to $3.4
million in the 1995 quarter. Cash flow in the 1996 quarter was primarily used
for increases in accounts receivables and inventories and reduction of accounts
payable.
During the first quarter of 1995, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of
$.10 per share. Commencing with the second quarter of 1995, the quarterly
dividend was increased to $.12 per share.
