NOTE F - SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has two reportable segments: Food Safety and Animal Safety. The
Food Safety segment produces and markets diagnostic test kits and related
products used by food producers and processors to detect harmful natural
toxins, drug residues, foodborne bacteria, food allergens, pesticide
residues, disease infections and levels of general sanitation. The Animal
Safety segment is primarily engaged in the production and marketing of
products dedicated to animal health, including 250 different veterinary
instruments and a complete line of consumable products marketed to
veterinarians and distributors serving the professional equine industry.
These segments are managed separately because they represent strategic
business units that offer different products and require different marketing
strategies. The Company evaluates performance based on total sales and
operating income of the respective segments.
Segment information for the three months ended February 29, 2000 and
February 28, 1999 follows:

Management Corporation, and Jack L. Radlo ("Vicam") on all claims against
Vicam not previously settled. The agreement provides for an undisclosed

2000.
ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.
The information in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations contains both historical financial
information and forward-looking statements. Neogen does not provide forecasts
of future financial performance. While management is optimistic about the
Company's long-term prospects, historical financial information may not be
indicative of future financial performance.
The words "anticipate", "believe", "potential", "expect" and similar
expressions used herein are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements involve certain risks and uncertainties. Various
factors, including competition, recruitment of and dependence on key
employees, impact of weather on agriculture and food production,
identification and integration of acquisitions, research and development
risks, patent and trade secret protection, government regulation and other
risks detailed from time to time in the Company's reports on file at the
Securities and Exchange Commission may cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
Three Months Ended February 29, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended
February 28, 1999.
Total sales for the quarter ended February 29, 2000 increased $985,000, or
19%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Sales of products
dedicated to food safety were up $480,000, or 20%, and sales of animal safety
products increased $505,000, or 17%.
The increase in food safety sales was influenced by several factors. Sales of
test kits to detect harmful bacteria such as E. coli O157:H7 and salmonella
continued their strong growth trend with sales up over $495,000 and sales of
products used for the detection of food allergens increased over $40,000.
Sales of diagnostic tests for the detection of mycotoxins declined $35,000.
These products are influenced by the uncertainty of weather conditions, which
impacts growing conditions differently each year. Accordingly, it is not
uncommon for the Company to experience significant year to year fluctuations
in sales of these kits to detect harmful mycotoxins.
The increase in sales of animal safety products is primarily due to increased
sales for three products. Sales of the Company's vaccine to prevent type B
botulism in horses increased $220,000, due to the return of availability
during the February 29, 2000 quarter. The Company awaited approval by USDA
during much of the second and third fiscal quarters. Conditional approvals
were received in January and February 2000. The Company is currently working
with USDA to devise testing protocols to reduce the chance for product
outages in the future. Additionally, sales increases were experienced with
the Company's equine respiratory pharmaceutical products (33%) and drug
detection products (20%). The respiratory products increases followed
promotions implemented during the quarter and the drug detection products
increases have arisen because of demand following renewed interest in
maintaining the integrity of horse racing.
11
Cost of goods sold increased $450,000. As a percentage of sales, cost of
goods sold increased from 42.9% to 43.4% due to the overall mix of product
sold.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $230,000 as a result of adding sales
and marketing personnel to expand sales activities both domestically and
internationally.
General and administrative expense increased principally due to legal fees
incurred in connection with the Vicam litigation (see Legal Proceedings).
Administrative salaries have increased following the addition of senior level
personnel to assist with managing the growth and strategic direction of the
Company.
The growth in research and development follows the Company's commitment to
the investment in future product development.
Other income increased $30,000 because of greater levels of invested funds.
Nine Months Ended February 29, 2000 Compared to Nine Months Ended
February 28, 1999.
Total sales for the nine months ended February 29, 2000 increased $115,000,
or .7%, compared to the same period of the prior year. Sales of products
dedicated to food safety were up $575,000, or 7%, and sales of animal safety
products declined $460,000, or 5%.
The increase in food safety sales was affected by a number of factors. Sales
of test kits to detect harmful bacteria such as E. coli O157:H7 and
salmonella continued their strong growth trend with sales up $1,230,000.
Sales of products used for the detection of food allergens also increased
over $100,000. The sales growth in these two areas offset sales declines in
two other areas. In the fourth quarter of last fiscal year, the Company sold
its human clinical product line. As a result, there were no human clinical
product sales in the first nine months this year compared to $460,000 in
sales of human clinical products during the same period last year. Sales of
diagnostic tests for the detection of mycotoxins declined $470,000 compared
to the prior year primarily as a result of decreased sales for aflatoxin and
vomitoxin test kits. It is not uncommon for the Company to experience
significant year to year fluctuations in sales of these kits.
The decline in sales of animal safety products is primarily due to lower
sales for two products. Sales of the Company's vaccine to prevent type B
botulism in horses declined $200,000, due exclusively to a shortage in
product availability. As discussed previously in this Form 10-Q, the Company
is currently working with USDA to prevent such shortages in the future.
Additionally, a customer for specialty needles used to introduce unique
marinades into meats is no longer purchasing product from the Company. Sales
of this product decreased $700,000 as a result of this change.
Cost of goods sold increased $340,000. As a percentage of sales, cost of
goods sold increased from 41.9% to 43.6% due to the overall mix of products
sold.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $335,000 as a result of adding sales
and marketing personnel to expand sales activities both domestically and
internationally.
The Company's effective tax rate was approximately 22% in the nine months
ended February 29, 2000 due to the availability of tax credit carryforwards,
which were used to offset federal income taxes.
12
Financial Condition and Liquidity
At February 29, 2000, the Company had $8,100,000 in cash and marketable
securities, working capital of $17,200,000 and stockholders' equity of
$24,900,000. In addition, the Company has unused bank lines of credit
totaling $10,000,000. Cash and marketable securities decreased $2,500,000
during the nine months ended February 29, 2000, with $1,200,000 of cash
generated by operations offset by the purchase of Acumedia and stock
repurchases.
At February 29, 2000, the Company had no material commitments for capital
expenditures. Inflation and changing prices are not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's operations.
Although cash and marketable securities are generally considered adequate,
management believes that these resources may not be sufficient to meet the
Company's cash requirements to commercialize products currently under
development or its plans to acquire additional technology and products that
fit within the Company's mission statement. Accordingly, the Company may be
required to issue equity securities or enter into other financing
arrangements for a portion of its future capital needs.
