6. CONTINGENCIES
When the Company acquired Gamma Biologicals, Inc. ("Gamma Biologicals") in
October 1998, Gamma Biologicals was a party to an existing legal proceeding. On
May 12, 1998, Gamma Biologicals received notification that a claim of patent
infringement had been filed on that date in U.S. District Court, Southern
District of Florida, Miami Division, by Micro Typing Systems, Inc. and Stiftung
fur Diagnostiche Forschung (the Foundation). Subsequently, in February 1999 the
Company received notification that a second claim was filed in the U.S. District
Court for the Northern District of Georgia, against Immucor, Inc. and Gamma
Biologicals for patent infringement on the first patent described above and a
second patent recently granted to the Foundation. The claim alleges that the
recently introduced Gamma ReACT Test System infringes U.S. patent No. 5,512,432
granted to the Foundation April 30, 1996 and U.S. patent No. 5,863,802 granted
to the Foundation on January 26, 1999. The plaintiffs seek a preliminary and
permanent injunction against the continued alleged infringement by Gamma
Biologicals and Immucor, and an award of treble damages, with interest and costs
and reasonable attorney's fees. Management is confident that ReACT technology
does not infringe the Foundation's patents; however, an unfavorable outcome in
this action could have a material adverse effect upon the business and the
results of operations in a given reporting period. Since this matter is in the
earliest stage of proceedings and due to uncertainties involved in litigation,
management cannot predict the likelihood of a particular outcome. Management
believes it has a meritorious defense against the alleged infringement.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Any statements contained herein that are not historical fact are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and involve risks and uncertainties. All
forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information
available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company assumes no
obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Further risks are
detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including those set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended May 31, 1999.
Financial Condition and Liquidity:
During the nine months ended February 29, 2000, the Company increased its
profitability, generated positive cash flow from operations, and maintained
positive working capital. As of February 29, 2000, the Company's cash position
totaled $2,976,000. For the nine months ended February 29, 2000, the Company
generated cash from operating activities of $1,238,000 and purchased property
and equipment of $2,797,000. In December 1999, the Company repaid promissory
notes owed to the former owners of Dominion Biologicals Limited of $3,886,000
($5,471,000 in Canadian dollars) and acquired debt of the same amount to be
repaid over the next three years. The exercise of approximately 374,000 stock
options and warrants provided $2,893,000 in cash.
Management believes that the Company's current cash and cash equivalents
balance, internally generated funds, and amounts available under the lines of
credit should be more than sufficient to support operations to support planned
product introduction and continued improvement and development of products
during the next 12 months. Management also believes additional credit lines
would be available should the need arise for capital improvements, acquisitions
or other corporate purposes.
Results of Operations:
Net sales
Net sales for the three months ended February 29, 2000 totaled
$19,201,000 an increase of $2,443,000 (15%) over last year's $16,758,000.
Current year three-month results included an increase in net sales of $558,000
related to Gamma Biologicals, Inc. ("Gamma Biologicals") acquired on October 27,
1998 and $857,000 from Medichim and Immunochim acquired on March 15, 1999 and
from BCA, a division of Biopool, acquired on April 30, 1999. The remaining
increase in sales was primarily due to instrumentation sales. The Company
generated instrument revenues of $2,800,000 for the quarter compared to
$2,200,000 for the same period last year. Sales by the Company's European
subsidiaries combined increased 11% over last year's total excluding the effect
of the acquisitions. However, when translated into US dollars, there was a
decrease of 3% due to unfavorable exchange rates in Europe. For the nine months
ended February 29, 2000, net sales were $58,381,000 (including $19,353,000 from
acquisitions) compared to $40,782,000 (which includes $6,354,000 from
acquisitions) in the prior year. Year to date instrument sales increased
approximately $4,000,000 over prior year.
Gross profit
As a percent of sales, gross profit for the three months ended February
29, 2000 totaled 53.0% versus 54.7% for the same period in 1999. The decrease in
gross profit margin was primarily caused by higher instrument sales at lower
gross margins than other products and the sales increase due to prior year
acquisitions which are at lower gross profit margins than Immucor's product
lines. Gross profit for the nine months ended February 29, 2000 totaled 53.3%
versus 54.5% for the same period in 1999, and decreased for substantially the
same reasons.
<PAGE>
Operating expenses
When compared to the prior year, research and development costs increased
$140,000 and $283,000 for the three and nine month periods, respectively. The
increase is primarily due to higher costs related to instrument development
projects.
For the quarter ended February 29, 2000, selling and marketing expenses
decreased $47,000, or 1.5%, when compared to the same quarter last year. With
the acquisition of Gamma Biologicals, the sales force was realigned resulting in
a reduction of certain positions due to duplication of efforts offset by the
addition of personnel required for the Company's instrumentation strategy.
Selling and marketing expense increased $1,582,000 year to date with $498,000
attributable to Medichim and Immunochim; and, higher payroll expense for the
increase in personnel as the Company has continued to focus its efforts on the
instrument side of the business.
Distribution expenses increased $458,000 for the three month period and
$2,159,000 for the nine month period when compared to the same periods in the
prior year. The increase relates to a temporary shift in shipping methods from
ground to overnight, change in shipping specifications for certain products
resulting in higher costs per shipment, increase in personnel and overall
increase in shipping activity.
General and administrative expenses for the three and nine month periods
increased $384,000 and $1,854,000, respectively, for additional expenses
resulting from the growth of the Company with acquisitions. The Company has also
experienced an increase in operating costs such as rent, utilities and
depreciation expense with the Company's expansion at its U.S. operations.
Merger-related expenses for the prior year are one-time expenses related
to the Gamma Biologicals and BCA acquisitions.
Amortization expense for the three and nine months periods ended February
29, 2000, increased $124,000 and $643,000 due to goodwill recorded in the
acquisitions of Gamma Biologicals on October 27, 1998, Medichim and Immunochim
on March 15, 1999 and BCA, a division of Biopool, on April 30, 1999.
Interest income
Interest income decreased $16,000 for the quarter and $291,000 for the
nine month period due to lower cash balances as compared to last year caused by
the purchase of treasury stock and the purchase of Gamma Biologicals and other
acquisitions which were partially funded by the use of the Company's cash.
Interest expense
When compared to the prior year three and nine month periods, interest
expense increased $190,000 and $1,243,000. This is a result of the purchase of
Gamma Biologicals and other acquisitions which were primarily financed with the
proceeds of a bank loan.
Other income
Other income increased $3,000 for the three month period and $102,000 for
the nine month period as compared to the same periods last year. The year to
date increase is primarily due to foreign currency transaction gains realized
earlier in the fiscal year versus losses in the same period last year.

Income taxes
Income tax expense as a percent of pretax income is evaluated and
