NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The information for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 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
1998 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, 1999 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended
December 31, 1999.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share
includes the dilutive effect of stock options.

NOTE 4--SEGMENT AND PRODUCT LINE INFORMATION
The Company considers its manufactured instruments and medical
immunodiagnostic test kits as one operating segment as defined under SFAS 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" as the
kits are required to run the instruments and utilize similar technology and
instrument manufacturing processes. The Company manufacturers its instruments
and kits principally from facilities in the United States and the United
Kingdom. Kits and instruments are sold to hospitals, medical centers, clinics,
physicians, and other clinical laboratories throughout the world through a
network of distributors including consolidated distributors located in the
United Kingdom, Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, Spain, The Netherlands,
Belgium, Luxembourg, Finland, Norway, France, Australia, New Zealand, China,
Brazil, Uruguay, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala,
Panama, Sweden and Estonia.
The Company sells its instruments and immunodiagnostic test kits under several
product lines. Product line sales information is as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's sales increased 9.5% in the first quarter of 1999 to $50.5 million
compared to sales of $46.1 million in the first quarter of 1998. Sales of all
IMMULITE products (instruments and reagents) in the first quarter of 1999 were
$33.2 million, a 22% increase over the first quarter of 1998. Sales of IMMULITE
products represented 66% of first quarter 1999 sales, compared to 59% of first
quarter 1998 sales.
IMMULITE reagents represented $25.5 million of 1999 first quarter sales, a 24%
increase. Sales of IMMULITE systems (including service revenue) were $7.7
million, up 15% over the first quarter of 1998. The Company shipped a total of
181 IMMULITE systems during the 1999 first quarter, including 78 IMMULITE 2000
systems and 103 IMMULITE One systems. The total base of IMMULITE systems shipped
grew to approximately 4,150, including 368 of the IMMULITE 2000 systems. The
Company's goal is to ship 400 IMMULITE 2000 systems in 1999. Because the
IMMULITE 2000 system first became commercially available in April 1998,
shipments of this product did not make a meaningful contribution to first
quarter 1998 results.
Sales of the Company's mature RIA products declined approximately 8% in the
first quarter of 1999, representing 20% of sales, compared to 24% of sales in
the first quarter of 1998. This trend is expected to continue. Sales of other
DPC products, including allergy reagents, accounted for approximately 9% of 1999
first quarter sales and were essentially unchanged from the 1998 first quarter
due to a soft allergy season in Asia. Sales of non-DPC products through its
consolidated international affiliates decreased 11% in the first quarter of 1999
to $2.7 million (5% of sales).
The devaluation of the Brazilian currency in January 1999 resulted in a $536,000
pretax exchange loss or after tax, $.03 per share. The expense is included in
general and administrative expenses. In addition, the Company recorded a
currency translation adjustment of $4.2 million resulting from the Company's
long-term intercompany advances to Brazil. In accordance with the provisions of
the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, gains and losses arising
from intercompany foreign currency transactions that are of a long-term
investment nature (i.e. transactions for which settlement is not planned or
anticipated in the foreseeable future) are accumulated in a separate component
of shareholders' equity.
The Brazilian devaluation also impacted ongoing operations in Brazil, where the
Company is the market leader. When measured in the local currency, sales in the
first quarter of 1999 were 8.9 million Brazilian Real compared to 5.4 million
Real in the first quarter of 1998. When measured in U.S. dollars, sales were
$5.0 million in the first quarter of 1999 (9.9% of total sales) compared to $4.8
million (10.4% of total sales) in the first quarter of 1998. Although the
devaluation has slowed the Company's rapid sales expansion in that country, the
Company believes that the situation is stabilizing.
Due to the significance of foreign sales (79% of total sales), in particular in
Europe, the Company is subject to currency risks based on the relative strength
or weakness of the U.S. dollar. In periods when the U.S. dollar is strengthening
the effect of the translation of the financial statements of consolidated
foreign affiliates is that of lower sales and net income. Other than the effects
of the currency devaluation in Brazil discussed above, currency translation
effects did not have a material impact on 1999 first quarter results. In the
first quarter of 1998, however, the strong U.S. dollar had a 7% negative impact
on sales. Due to intense competition, the Company's foreign distributors are
generally unable to increase prices to offset the negative effect when the U.S.
dollar is strong.
In the first quarter of 1999 domestic sales grew at a faster pace than foreign
sales, 14% growth for domestic sales compared to 8.3% growth for foreign sales.
Costs of sales as a percentage of sales increased from 44% in the first quarter
1998 to 46% in the first quarter 1999.
Selling expense as a percentage of sales decreased slightly from 19.5% in the
first quarter of 1998 to 18.9% in the first quarter of 1999, reflecting the end
of pre-launch expenses for the IMMULITE 2000.
6
<PAGE> 8
General and administrative expenses increased 14% in the first quarter of 1999
compared to the 1998 first quarter, and increased as a percentage of sales from
12.9% in 1998 to 13.4% in 1999 principally due to the $536,000 exchange loss
from the Brazilian devaluation discussed above. Included in general and
administrative expenses is the amortization of the excess of cost over net
assets acquired and minority interest.
Equity in income of affiliates represents the Company's share of earnings of
non-consolidated affiliates, principally the 45%-owned Italian distributor. This
amount increased almost 40% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to the first
quarter of 1998 primarily due to increased earnings by the Italian and
Portuguese distributors.
Net interest income represents the excess of interest income and interest on
equipment contracts over interest expense. Net interest income increased in the
1999 first quarter compared to the 1998 first quarter due to decreased
borrowings during the period.
The Company's effective tax rate includes Federal, state and foreign taxes.
Lower than anticipated research and development tax credits increased the
effective tax rate from 29.5% in the first quarter 1998 to 30.4% in 1999.
Net income was $4.1 million ($.30 per share) in each of the first quarter of
1999 and 1998, but decreased as a percentage of sales from 8.9% in 1998 to 8.1%
in 1999 due to the higher cost of sales and the effects of the Brazilian
devaluation.
LIQUIDITY
The Company has adequate working capital and sources of capital to carry on its
current business and to meet its existing capital requirements. Net cash flow
from operating activities was $6.7 million in the first quarter of 1999 and $4.7
million in the first quarter of 1998. Additions to property, plant and equipment
in the first quarter of 1999 were $2.9 million compared to $2.6 million in the
first quarter of 1998. Cash flow used for the placement of IMMULITE systems
under sales-type and operating leases (for periods of generally three to five
years) was $4.5 million in the first quarter of 1999 compared to $2.1 million in
the first quarter of 1998. The Company used cash to reduce borrowings by $1.2
million in the 1999 first quarter compared to $0.54 million cash provided by
borrowings in the 1998 first quarter.
The Company's foreign operations, particularly, at this time, its operations in
Brazil, are subject to risks, such as currency devaluations, associated with
political and economic instability. See discussion above under "Results of
Operations" regarding the effects of the Brazilian devaluation.
The Company expects to purchase real property in New Jersey in 1999 at a cost of
approximately $2.8 million. The Company plans to construct an 80,000 square foot
manufacturing facility on this property over the next several years at a cost
between $8 million and $10 million. The Company has no other material
commitments for capital expenditures in 1999.
The Company has a $20 million unsecured line of credit under which there were no
borrowings outstanding at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998. Standby letters
of credit under the line of credit were zero at March 31, 1999 and $2 million at
December 31, 1998. The Company had notes payable (consisting of bank borrowings
by the Company's foreign consolidated subsidiaries payable in the local currency
which are guaranteed by the Company) of $18.4 million at March 31, 1999 compared
to $21.2 million at December 31, 1998.
The Company has paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.12 per share since 1995.
On October 14, 1998 the Company announced a plan under which it could repurchase
up to one million shares of its common stock from time to time in open market
transactions. Through March 31, 1999 the Company had repurchased a total of
208,288 shares at a cost of $4.3 million. The Company utilized existing cash to
finance such purchases. Additional repurchases, if any, will depend on the
prevailing market price of the Common Stock and could require bank borrowings.

<PAGE> 9
EURO CONVERSION
The Company has significant sales to European countries (the "participating
countries") which began converting to a common legal currency (the "euro") on
January 1, 1999. During the transition period of January 1, 1999 to January 1,
2002, public and private parties may pay for goods and services using either the
euro or the local currency. During the transition period, conversion rates will
not be computed directly from one local currency to another. Instead, local
currencies will be converted first to a euro denomination and then to the second
local currency. Beginning January 2002, new euro-denominated bills and coins
become legal currency and all former currencies will, over the ensuing months,
be withdrawn from circulation. The ultimate conversion to the euro will
eliminate currency exchange risk among the participating countries.
The Company sells its products in the participating countries through affiliated
and non-affiliated distributors which determine sales prices in their respective
territories. The use of a single currency in the participating countries may
affect this variable pricing in the various European markets because of price
transparency. Nevertheless, other market factors such as local taxes, customer
preferences and product assortment may reduce the need for price equalization.
The Company has significant sales in Europe and is currently evaluating the
business implications of the conversion to the euro, including the need to adapt
internal systems to accommodate euro-denominated transactions, the competitive
implications of cross border price transparency, the impact on existing
marketing programs, and other strategic implications. Due to the existence of
many unknown variables at this early stage, it is not at this time possible for
the Company to predict the precise implications of the euro conversion on its
operations.
YEAR 2000
The Company has a program to address Year 2000 readiness of its information and
business systems. This program is more than half-way completed. The Company has
tested all critical systems and has performed routine testing of work stations.
Work stations that require corrective software have been identified and the
Company's goal, subject to timely software manufacturer support, is to complete
the remediation efforts by July 1999. The costs incurred to date and expected to
be incurred in the future related to the evaluation and remediation efforts are
not material. Independent of the Year 2000 issue, over the last 18 months the
Company has been engaged in an ongoing program to upgrade its information
systems.
The Company has instituted a comprehensive vendor/supplier compliance
verification program to assure that the Company will have an uninterrupted
supply of goods, services and materials. The Company has requested compliance
verification from all vendors/suppliers.
The Company presently believes that, with modifications to existing software,
the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational problems for the
Company or its affiliates. However, if such modifications are not completed
timely by the Company or any of its affiliates, or by significant third parties
with whom the Company does business, such as communications and power providers,
the Year 2000 issue could have a material impact on the operations of the
Company. The Company maintains business continuity plans in all major sites to
deal with potential business interruptions that could occur as a result of power
or communications failures.
The Company also has a program to determine whether its instrumentation products
are Year 2000 compliant. The Company's website contains a regularly updated
product compliance status page which customers can access to obtain information
regarding the compliance status of their DPC products. The Company is also
providing customer support and customer satisfaction services to all of its
customers regarding
8
<PAGE> 10
Year 2000 issues. The IMMULITE 2000 instrument, which the Company began shipping
in March 1998, is Year 2000 compliant. The Company has determined that the
IMMULITE One instrument is not Year 2000 compliant and has so informed the FDA.
The software used in the IMMULITE One has a two-digit year field which must be
changed to a four-digit field. As part of its routine, on-going software
development, the Company is developing software for the IMMULITE One that will
be Year 2000 compliant. The Company's goal is to be able to offer to its
customers software and hardware upgrades to make all its products compliant by
June 30, 1999. A relatively few older products are not compliant and will not be
upgraded due to obsolescence. The costs incurred to date and expected to be
incurred to upgrade products are not material.
While the Company currently expects that it will be able to bring its own
systems and products into Year 2000 compliance on a timely basis, if the Company
encounters unforeseen problems or delays it could be subject to legal claims
(with or without merit), increased warranty costs, or customer dissatisfaction
which could result in a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Except for the historical information contained herein, this report contains
forward looking statements (identified by the words "estimate," "project,"
"anticipate," "expect," "intend," "believe," "hope" and similar expressions)
which are based upon Management's current expectations and speak only as of the
date made. These forward looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties
and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
