NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1995
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements included herein were
prepared by Novitron International, Inc. ("the Company") pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information normally included in footnote disclosures in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles was condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations. In management's opinion, the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes reflect all adjustments necessary to disclose
adequately the Company's financial position at June 30, 1995 and June
30, 1994. Management suggests these condensed consolidated financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995.
(1) Operations and Accounting Policies
(a) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries: Clinical Data BV, Clinical Data
(Australia), Pty. Ltd., NovaChem BV, Spectronetics NV, and Vital
Scientific NV (94% owned subsidiary). All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(b) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates
market, and consist of cash and marketable financial instruments with
original maturities of 90 days or less. Cash and cash equivalents
consist of the following at June 30, and March 31, 1995.

(c) Marketable Securities
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115") effective April 1, 1994.
Under SFAS No. 115, marketable securities which the Company has
the ability and positive intent to hold to maturity are recorded
at amortized cost and classified as "held to maturity"
securities. The adoption of SFAS No. 115 did not have a material
effect on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
(d) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-
out) or market, include material, labor and manufacturing
overhead, and consist of the following at June 30, and March 31,
1995:

</TABLE>
(e) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and
supplies at the time of shipment.
(f) Net Income (Loss) per Share
Net income or (loss) per share for the three month periods
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 is based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the respective fiscal
period. Common stock equivalents are not used in the computation
of net income per share for the period ended June 30, 1994 as the
resulting dilution is less than 3%.

(g) Foreign Currency Translation
The Company accounts for foreign currency transaction and
translation gains and losses in accordance with SFAS No. 52,
"Foreign Currency Translation." The functional currency of the
Company's foreign subsidiaries is the Dutch Guilder. The
translation adjustment required to report these subsidiaries'
financial statements in U.S. dollars is credited or charged to
cumulative translation adjustment, included as a separate
component of stockholders' investment in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses resulting from
translating asset and liability accounts which are denominated in
currencies other than the functional currency are included in
other income. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are
included in other income in the consolidated statements of
operations.
(2) Investment in NovaChem BV
From June 1992 through March 1995, the Company made
investments in certain securities of NovaChem BV. As of March 31,
1995, the Company owns all of the outstanding stock of NovaChem
BV. In connection with the Company's purchase of NovaChem BV's
stock, the Company has recorded goodwill of $981,250, which
represents the excess of the consideration paid over the fair
value of the net assets acquired. The Company has agreed to pay
the former shareholders of NovaChem BV additional consideration
in the form of the Company's common stock, based on a formula
over the next three years.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
First Quarter ended June 30, 1995 compared to the First Quarter
ended June 30, 1994
Revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 decreased
twenty percent (20%) from the prior year. This result was
primarily attributable to the completion of a major contract from
Russia's Gazprom for NovaChem technology during the first and
second quarters of fiscal year 1995. The results also reflect a
sixteen percent (16%) strengthening of the Dutch Guilder against
the United States Dollar.
The decrease in the gross margin between years, from 33.9%
for the quarter ended June 30, 1994 to 32.8% for the quarter
ended June 30, 1995, reflects primarily a change in product mix
to sales of instruments with lower margins.
Sales and marketing expenses increased six percent (6%)
between years when expressed in U.S. dollars. Actual expenses,
however, when expressed in the functional currency of Dutch
Guilders, decreased ten percent (10%) due to cost containment at
Vital Scientific and a reduction of overhead at NovaChem BV. The
results were also impacted by the sixteen percent (16%) change in
the currency value as noted above.
Research and development expenses declined six percent (6%)
from the comparable period last year primarily because of the
completion of projects at NovaChem BV.
General and administrative expenses have decreased ten
percent (10%) from fiscal 1995 to fiscal 1996. This result was
due primarily to cost containment implemented at NovaChem BV and
the Company and reduced expenses at Spectronetics NV following
the completion of the Russian Gazprom project.
Interest expense increased due to the increased use of the
Company's bank line of credit, while interest income has
decreased because fewer funds were available for investment. The
increase in other income results from the currency translation
gains. Taxes have increased between years because Vital
Scientific NV, as an individual company, had substantially
stronger results for the quarter as compared to fiscal 1995.
For the quarters ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, minority
interest is attributable to the six percent (6%) of Vital
Scientific NV not held by the Company. From October 1993 through
October 1994, the Company owned fifty-two percent (52%) of
NovaChem BV. In October 1994, the Company increased its ownership
in NovaChem BV to sixty percent (60%) and acquired the remaining
forty percent (40%) at March 31, 1995. In accordance with APB No.
<PAGE>
18 and Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, the Company has
recorded one hundred percent (100%) of the NovaChem BV losses
during fiscal year 1995, approximately $75,000 for first quarter
fiscal 1995, because the minority interests were unable to fund
their portion of these losses.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The decrease in working capital since the Company's fiscal
year ended March 31, 1995, was primarily accounted for by (i) an
increase in inventory levels, (ii) a decrease in accounts payable
and (iii) a decrease in accrued taxes payable. This result was
offset by an increase in the level of short-term debt.
The Company believes that its available funds will continue
to provide for working capital requirements. Approximately $1.5
million of the $1.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and
short-term investments is denominated in U.S. dollars; $0.1
million is subject to foreign currency translation risk. The
translation risk is dependent on the exchange rates in effect at
the time the functional currency (Dutch Guilder) is translated to
U.S. Dollars. The effect on translation is reflected as a
separate component of stockholders' investment in the balance
sheet. The cumulative effect of translation is $996,906 at June
30, 1995 and $1,068,490 at March 31, 1995.
