3.  Net income per common share:

     Net income per common share is computed using the weighted average number

respective periods.  Common share and common share equivalents were 8,705,134 
and 8,759,651 in the 1995 three and six month comparable periods, and 
7,775,207 and 7,761,528 in the 1994 three and six month periods.  There is 
no significant difference between primary and fully diluted per share amounts.

     The provision for income tax expense for the three months and six months

provisions was not available.



IMMUCOR, INC.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.


Financial Condition and Liquidity:
 
     As of November 30, 1995, the Company's cash position totaled $19,103,690.  
For the six months ended November 30 1995, the Company generated cash from 
operating activities of $861,600 and repaid $717,000 (1,000,000 DM) of bank 
debt in Germany.

     The Company does not have any material capital commitments.  Management 
believes that the Company's current cash balance, internally generated funds, 
and amounts available under the lines of credit are sufficient to support 
operations for the foreseeable future.  Management also believes additional 
credit lines would be available should the need arise.


Results of Operations:

Net sales

     Net sales for the three months ended November 30, 1995 totaled $7,282,300 
versus $7,052,500 in the comparable prior year three month period.  For the six 
months ended November 30, 1995, net sales were $14,758,200 compared to 
$14,241,800 in the prior year.  Approximately one-half of the increase in sales 
during the three months ended November 30, 1995, compared to the same three 
month period in the prior year, was due to a weaker dollar as compared to last 
year, which increased the dollar equivalent of the Company's sales generated 
in German marks.  The remaining increase was caused by higher sales of the 
Company's Capturer product line partially offset by a decline in the sales of 
more traditional blood bank reagents.  Sales of traditional blood bank products 
declined due to continuing competitive pricing pressures in the health care 
environment.

Gross profit

     As a percent of sales revenue, gross profit increased for the three month 
and six month period ended November 30, 1995, when compared to the same 
period ended November 30, 1994.  The increase in gross profit margin can be 
attributed to favorable rates of foreign exchange in Germany, and higher sales 
of the Company's Capturer product line which have a higher gross profit than 
the more traditional blood bank reagent products. 


Operating expenses

     Selling, general and administrative expense for the three and six month 
period ended November 30, 1995, increased $304,300 and $702,700 respectively, 
compared to the 1994 periods.  The increase was principally caused by higher 
levels of sales and marketing related expenses, including advertising, 
increased sales staff in the U.S., and additional marketing personnel.  Also,
a weaker U.S. dollar caused an increase in the dollar equivalent of operating 
expenses incurred in German marks. 

Interest expense

     Interest expense declined $44,100 during the three months ended 
November 30, 1995, and $90,500 in the six months ended November 30,1995, as 
compared to the same three and six month periods last year.  The decline in 
interest expense was primarily due to the Company reducing its outstanding 
principal loan balance in Germany (see Financial Condition and Liquidity.)

Provision for Income Taxes

     As a percent of pretax income, the provision for income taxes declined 
during the three months ended November 30, 1995, over the prior year, and a 
similar decline occurred for the six month period.  The Company's operations 
in Europe generated a positive contribution to pretax income in the current year
versus a loss in the prior year.  However, no provision for income taxes was 
recorded in Europe in the current year as European operations had sufficient 
net operating loss carryforwards to offset the tax liability created by 
current year income.
