for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three
month period ended August 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ended May 31, 1997. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's annual report on form 10-K for the year
ended May 31, 1996. Revenues from product sales are recognized at the time
of shipment.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Financial Condition and Liquidity:
As of August 31, 1996, the Company's cash position totaled $19,994,460.
During the three months ended August 31, 1996, the Company repaid an
additional $335,098 (500,000 DM) of bank debt in Germany.
The Company is completing a facilities expansion at its US offices in
Norcross, Georgia. The expansion provides an additional 10,000 square feet
of manufacturing, laboratory and office space which should be finished by
December 1996. Planned expenditures include leasehold improvements and
furnishings totaling approximately $900,000.
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 August 31, 1996 totaled $7,956,900
versus $7,475,900 in the comparable prior year three month period. Most of
the increase is due to higher sales activity in the Company's European
operations.
Gross profit
As a percent of sales, gross profit for the three months ended August 31,
1996 totaled 60.6% versus 63.1% last year. The decline in gross profit margin
was principally caused by the Company's decision to focus on obtaining large
national accounts at lower margins in an effort to increase market share
longer term.
Operating expenses
As compared to last year, contract research and development costs declined
$115,000. During the current year period, two ABS2000 automated analyzers
previously expensed as research and development were sold to the Company's
Canadian distributor, and the sale ($70,000) was recorded as a reduction of
current year research and development costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period
ended August 31, 1996 increased $512,200 over the same period last year. As
reported in previous periods, the Company has increased expenditures
significantly in selling, marketing and advertising, including increased
marketing and trade show costs, higher advertising and production promotion
costs, and sales staff additions.
Interest expense
Interest expense declined $38,600 in the current year three month period
as compared to last year. This decline was due to the Company reducing its
outstanding principal loan balance as compared to last year.
Provision for income taxes
The effective tax rate increased in the current year's quarter versus
last year because of the need to provide for income taxes on increased profits
in Germany which are taxed at higher rates than income is taxed in the United
States.
