NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  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 six-month period ended June 30, 1999,
are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended  December 31, 1999.  For further  information,  refer to the  consolidated
financial  statements  and footnotes  thereto  included in the Company's  annual
report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1998.

The balance  sheet at  December  31,  1998,  has been  derived  from the audited
financial  statements  at that date but does not include all of the  information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting  principles for complete
financial statements.

</TABLE>

3.       EARNINGS PER SHARE

During the year ended  December  31,  1998,  the Company  adopted  SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings  Per  Share,"  which  required a change in the method  used to compute
earnings per share. Under this new standard,  primary and fully diluted earnings
per share were  replaced with "Basic" and  "Diluted"  earnings per share.  Basic
earnings per share is based upon the  weighted-average  number of common  shares
outstanding.  Diluted  earnings  per share is based  upon the  weighted  average
number of common  shares  and  dilutive  potential  common  shares  outstanding.
Potential common shares are outstanding options under the Company's stock option
plans and  outstanding  warrants,  which are included  under the treasury  stock
method.

4.       COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

SFAS No.  130  requires  unrealized  gains and losses on the  Company's  foreign
currency translation  adjustments to be included in other comprehensive  income.
Total  comprehensive  income was  $368,000 and $305,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

5.       SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company  currently  operates in one industry,  in vitro  diagnostic  medical
products.   However,   the  Company  has  two   reportable   segments;   Biopool
International and its wholly-owned  operating  subsidiary,  Biopool Sweden.  The
reportable segments are each managed separately as "stand-alone"  business units
and have very  little  duplication  of  technical  or  manufacturing  processes.
Biopool International  manufactures hemostasis and drugs-of-abuse  products, and
Biopool  Sweden  primarily  manufactures  test kits for  assessing  the  blood's
fibrinolytic (clot dissolving) system.

6.       DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On April 30, 1999, the Company  consummated the sale of certain  business assets
of the Blood Group Serology Division (BCA) for $4.45 million in cash, subject to
future adjustments. BCA ceased operations to the Company's benefit effective May
1, 1999,  but  continued  to convert  certain  inventory  items on behalf of the
buyer.  The sale of BCA will reduce the Company's  future sales by approximately
50%; however, the impact on future net income will be negligible.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION


SALE OF BLOOD GROUP SEROLOGY DIVISION

On April 30, 1999, we consummated the sale of certain business assets of BCA for
$4.45 million in cash, subject to future  adjustments.  BCA ceased operations to
our benefit  effective May 1, 1999, but continued to convert  certain  inventory
items on behalf of the buyer through June 30, 1999. The Consolidated  Statements
of Operations have been restated to reflect ongoing hemostasis operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales from continuing  operations  were $2.4 million for the three-month  period
and $4.5 million for the  six-month  period ended June 30, 1999,  compared  with
$2.1 million and $4.2 million for the  corresponding  periods of 1998.  The 1999
sales  represent  increases  of 12 and 8  percent,  respectively,  over the 1998
periods.  These increases are the result of renewed  emphasis to market our core
hemostasis products.

Cost of goods sold was $1.2  million for the three  months and $2.3  million for
the six months ended June 30, 1999,  compared with $1.1 million and $2.0 million
for the same periods in 1998. The year-to-date  cost of sales as a percentage of
revenues  was 51% in 1999  versus 48% in 1998.  This  percentage  increase  is a
result of increasing our allocation of overhead to cost of sales in 1999.

Selling,   general  and  administrative  ("SG&A")  expenses  were  $803,000  and
$1,475,000  for the three months and six months  ended June 30,  1999,  compared
with $671,000 and $1,330,000 for the same periods of 1998.  These increases were
due entirely to increased  sales and  marketing  efforts to improve sales of our
hemostasis products.

The 1999 Other expenses  primarily  relate to costs incurred to move our Swedish
operations  (Biopool  Sweden)  into larger  facilities  and the  abandonment  of
existing  leasehold   improvements  at  their  current   facilities.   In  1998,
restructure  costs were incurred in conjunction with the closure of our Canadian
operations.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Our already strong liquidity and capital  resources were further enhanced by the
sale of BCA.  As of June 30,  1999,  working  capital was $5.1  million,  with a
current ratio of 4.3 to 1.0. On April 30, 1999,  we received  $4.45 million cash
for the sale of certain BCA assets.  The proceeds were used, in part, to pay off
the  term  note  ($1,762,000)  and  pay  certain  closing  costs  (approximately
$775,000), with the balance invested in a short-term certificate of deposit. Net
assets of  discontinued  operations,  equal to $2.3  million,  represent the BCA
property,  plant,  and  equipment,  which were placed for sale in June 1999. The
saleability  and ultimate net proceeds  from the sale of such assets are unknown
at this time.

YEAR 2000 READINESS

We have formulated and are  implementing a Year 2000 Readiness Plan.  Phase I of
this Plan, assessment and identification of potential issues, is complete. Based
upon our  current  assessment,  we  believe  that we should not  experience  any
material  Year 2000  problems  with either our own or any third  party  systems.
Phase II of the Plan consists of remediation efforts, which we have targeted for
completion by August 31, 1999.

To date, we have spent an immaterial amount on our compliance program and do not
expect to spend in excess of $20,000 to complete Phase II.

We are unable,  at this time, to fully assess our reasonably likely "worst case"
scenario.  However,  failures to correct Year 2000 systems, our own, certain key
distributors or certain key vendors,  could result in failures or  interruptions
of critical  business systems which could possibly have a material impact to our
liquidity and financial  condition.  We do not anticipate material problems with
our power supply or telecommunications systems.
