                   BARRINGER LABORATORIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited financial statements contain
     all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to
     present fairly the  financial position of the Company and  its wholly owned
     subsidiary, Barringer Laboratorios de Mexico S.A. de C.V.  (BLM) as of 
     June 30, 1996 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
     the three months and the six  months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.   The
     accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Notes to
     Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1995 audited financial statements
     of  Barringer Laboratories, Inc. and Subsidiary included in their Annual
     Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
     The Form 10-KSB should be read in conjunction herewith.


2.   SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     The Company has entered into an exclusive arrangement with The Nassau
     Group, Inc. of Westport, Connecticut, to provide the Company with financial
     advisory services and investment banking support over the course of the
     next two years.  The Nassau Group will provide assistance in terms of
     evaluating strategic growth and acquisition opportunities, evaluating
     financing alternatives and helping to arrange for the Company's future
     capital needs.   Individuals associated with Nassau have purchased
     approximately 13% of the Company's common stock from other stockholders.
     In addition to the agreement mentioned above, such individuals were granted
     certain warrants to purchase up to 105,000 shares of the Company's common
     stock at an averaging price of $1.11 per share.  Such warrants expire 
     May 13, 2001.  As of July 26, 1996 such warrants have not been exercised.


3.   SEASONALITY

     The business of the Company has been seasonal as a result of cold weather
     restricting the availability  of samples to the laboratories in the cold
     winter  months.   Therefore, the results of operations for the interim
     periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
     the full year.

                OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

Sales of services for the three months ended June 30,  1996 of $1,675,000
represents an increase of $28,000 (1.7%) from the same period in  1995.   The
Environmental Division experienced  a decrease of $208,000 (19.1%) primarily due
to the  loss of  an existing customer's  large one-time project  which generated
sales of $48,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995.  Additionally, there
were volume decreases of $160,000 from other existing customers due to the
uncertainty surrounding the allocation of funds through the government budgeting
process.  Environmental sales for the remaining six months of 1996 will
continue to be below 1995 sales levels due to this uncertainty. The Mineral
Division experienced an increase of $236,000 (43.2%) over the same period in
1995. Mineral sales in the United States increased $126,000 (31.3%) over same
period in 1995 due to the addition of four new customers.  Mineral sales in
Mexico increased $110,000 (70.5%) due primarily to an increase in sales of
$110,000 from one existing customer. Mineral sales for the remaining six months
of 1996 should continue to be above 1995 sales levels due to increasing
activities in the Mineral Mexico market.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 30, 1996
was 32.9% as compared to 30.7% for the same period in 1995. This increase was
primarily due to production efficiencies in the Mineral Division as a result of
higher sales and fixed costs allocated over a larger sales base. Additionally,
this increase is due to lower equipment costs and lower depreciation.

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1996 of $385,000
increased by $46,000 (13.6%) from the same period in 1995 primarily due to
higher selling expenses and higher professional fees. 

Other expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1996 were $2,000 compared to
$52,000 for the same period in 1995. This decrease of $50,000 was due to a lack
of translation losses, which were $16,000 in 1995, lower interest expense, and
higher other income, offset by lower interest income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995 (CONTINUED)

For the three months ended June 30, 1996 the Company had income before income
taxes of $164,000 compared to income of $115,000 for the same period in 1995.
This increase of $49,000 (42.6%) was due primarily to production efficiencies in
the Mineral Division, lower equipment costs, lower depreciation, lower interest
expense, a lack of translation losses, and other income, offset by higher
selling, general administrative expenses and lower interest income.


SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995

Sales of Services for the six months ended June 30, 1996 of $2,971,000
represents a decrease of $118,000 (3.8%) from the same period in 1995.  The
Environmental Division experienced a decrease of $452,000 (21.7%) due to the
loss of one customer's large one-time project, which generated sales of $254,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  Additionally, there were volume
decreases of $198,000 from existing customers due to the uncertainty surrounding
the allocation of funds through the government budgeting process. Environmental
sales for the remaining six months of 1996 will continue to be below 1995 sales
levels due to this uncertainty. The Mineral Division experienced an increase of
$334,000 (33.3%) due primarily to volume increases in Mexico sales of $294,000
(129.1%) over the same period in 1995.  This increase was due primarily to an
existing customer's special project, which generated sales of $92,000 in the
three months ended March 31, 1996, volume increase in sales of $143,000 from
another existing customer, and the addition of new customers. Mineral sales in
the United States increased $50,000 (6.4%) due to addition of new customers.
Mineral sales for the remaining six months of 1996 should continue to be above
1995 sales levels due to increasing activity in the Mineral Mexico market.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 30, 1996 
was 28.1% which equals the gross profit percentage for the same period in 1995.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 of $747,000 increased
by $58,000 (8.4%) from the same period in 1995 primarily due to higher selling
expense and higher professional fees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995 (CONTINUED)

Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $11,000 compared to
$60,000 for the same period in 1995. This decrease of $49,000 was due primarily
to lower interest expense, a lack of translation losses, and other income,
offset by lower interest income.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996 the Company had income before income
taxes of $78,000 compared to income of $118,000 for the same period in 1995.
This decrease of $40,000 was primarily due to lower sales and higher selling,
general and administrative expenses, lower interest income, offset by lower
interest expense, a lack of translation losses, and other income.

                                (CONTINUED)



CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Cash totaled $296,000 at June 30, 1996, compared with $170,000 at December 31,
1995.  The $126,000 increase in cash resulted from cash provided by operating
activities of $291,000 which was offset by cash used in the purchase of property
and equipment of $113,000 and net cash used in financing activities of $52,000.

Cash provided by operating activities resulted from the effect of certain 
non-cash reconciling items of $222,000 (primarily depreciation and 
amortization) and a decrease in operating assets (primarily trade receivables)
net of operating liabilities of $9,000, and net income of $78,000.

Cash used for the purchase of property and equipment of $113,000 was primarily
related to the acquisition of computer hardware and software to upgrade the 
Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS).

Cash used in financing activities of $52,000 consisted of $137,000 used to 
reduce long-term debt and a decrease in the working line of credit of $63,000,
offset by an increase in long term debt of $148,000. This increase was related
to the Capitalized Lease debt on the computer hardware and software to upgrade
the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS).

The Company has a working line of credit from a lending institution. This line
of credit availability is equal to 80% of the Company's eligible accounts
receivable.  This line of credit is funding the Company's current working
capital requirements and has also been used to guarantee a $150,000 letter of
credit required by the Colorado Department of Health to increase the level of
the Company's Radiochemistry License. This increase in the license gives the
Company the ability to grow the radiochemistry analytical business.

Management of the company believes that additional capital is required to fund
the expansion of its environmental and mineral services business and to improve
overall Company liquidity. Management is currently evaluating potential funding
sources to obtain additional debt or equity financing. Should the receipt of
additional funding be delayed, the continued growth of the Company's business
may be negatively impacted.
