NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company computes and discloses its earnings (loss) per share in
accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which requires the
presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings
(loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is
calculated using the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common
shares represent shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and
are calculated using the treasury stock method.
Options to purchase 1,021,000 shares of the Company's common stock for
the three month period ended March 31, 1998 were not included in the computation
of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.
Options to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock at March 31,
1999 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because
their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the
Company's common stock of $3.53 per share. Weighted average dilutive options of
314,000 were used in the computation of earnings per share for the three month
period ending March 31, 1999.
2. Inventory
Inventory represents laboratory materials, collection materials and
products and is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using
standard costs, including freight, that approximate actual costs on a first-in,
first-out basis. Inventory consisted of the following at March 31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998, respectively:

3. Debt
PharmChem maintains a revolving line of credit agreement ("Credit
Agreement") with a bank. At March 31, 1999, the maximum that could be borrowed
and the amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement were $4,785,000 and
$1,337,000, respectively. As of March 31, 1999, the Company was in compliance
with all debt covenants.

4. Reportable Segments
The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Dislosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information," effective December 31, 1998. Prior period
amounts have been restated to conform to the presentation required by SFAS No.
131. The Company has two reportable segments, Domestic and International,
providing integrated drug testing services. The Domestic segment serves the
United States and the International segment serves primarily the United Kingdom
and also includes the European, Asian, Middle Eastern and South American
markets. The Domestic segment is serviced by the Company's California and Texas
operations and the International segment is serviced by Medscreen, the Company's
London-based subsidiary. The Company evaluates segment profit based on income or
loss from operations before intercompany interest, other income or expense and
income taxes and excluding goodwill amortization. Intersegment sales and
transfers are not material. Information about the Company's segments as of and
for the three month periods ended March 31 is as follows:

5. Subsequent Events
On April 20, 1999, the Company entered into a $1,500,000 variable rate
installment note ("Installment Note") with its bank. The proceeds from the
Installment Note were immediately used to reduce the amount outstanding under
the Company's revolving line of credit. The Installment Note is subject to the
terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, bears interest at the bank's base
rate (currently prime) plus 1.0% and is payable over 60 months. The Company has
reclassified $1,289,000 of the revolving line of credit as long-term debt as of
March 31, 1999, as such debt was refinanced in April, 1999.
On April 30, 1999, the Company entered into a $1,082,000 lease agreement
with a lessor to refinance certain modules of the Company's Unified Database
software project. The lease agreement bears interest at 8.5% and is payable over
36 months. Proceeds from the lease agreement are expected to be used to finance
the Company's ongoing capital expenditure program.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 increased $646,000
(6.8%) to $10,174,000 in 1999 from $9,528,000 in 1998. The Company's domestic
criminal justice revenues increased $664,000 (18.7%) reflecting higher specimen
volume from federal customers. Increased specimen volume also contributed to
higher sales for domestic drug rehabilitation customers and for Medscreen, the
Company's London-based subsidiary. However, average selling prices for domestic
laboratory analyses decreased slightly due primarily to lower workplace specimen
volume. The Company's domestic specimen volume increased 6.6% and international
specimen volume increased 43.8% from comparable 1998 levels. Sales
10
<PAGE> 11
of PharmScreen(R) On-site Screening Devices increased $56,000 (11.7%) and sales
of PharmChek(R) Drugs of Abuse Patch increased $89,000, attributed to the timing
of shipments, compared to the prior year.
Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 decreased
$84,000 (1.1%) to $7,224,000 in 1999 from $7,308,000 in 1998, despite the higher
specimen volume and product sales. The improvement in cost of sales reflects the
favorable impact of the Company's ongoing cost reduction program and laboratory
process improvement program. The success of the programs have resulted in lower
direct labor and material costs per specimen unit compared to the prior year.
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 71.0% in 1999 from 76.7%
in 1998. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 29.0% in 1999
from 23.3% in 1998.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 increased $231,000 (10.5%) to $2,439,000 in 1999 from
$2,208,000 in 1998, representing continued rebuilding of the sales, marketing,
information systems and administrative infrastructure and higher depreciation
expenses related to information systems placed into service. SG&A expenses as a
percentage of net sales increased slightly to 24.0% in 1999 from 23.2% in 1998.
Income from operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
$446,000 compared to a loss of $61,000 for the comparable period in 1998.
Benefit from (provision for) income taxes. The Company recorded a
benefit from income taxes of $176,000 in 1999 compared to an income tax
provision of $35,000 during 1998. The 1999 benefit from income taxes reflects an
income tax provision of $160,000 was more than offset by an income tax credit of
$336,000. This income tax credit reflects the reversal of a liability
established in a prior year when the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) disputed the
deductibility of research expenses incurred in the years 1992 through 1994
related to the development of PharmChek(R). Recently, the IRS issued a final
determination in favor of the Company's position.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was $583,000 or
$0.10 per diluted common share compared to a net loss of $192,000 or $0.03 per
diluted common share in 1998. Excluding the impact of the $336,000 income tax
credit, net income would have been $247,000 or $0.04 per diluted share in 1999.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's operations during the three month period ended March 31
provided cash of approximately $485,000 in 1999 and $1,270,000 in 1998. The
decrease in cash flow from operations between 1999 and 1998 principally reflects
the reversal of the $336,000 income tax credit and improvements in working
capital recorded in 1998, which more than offset the increase in net income in
1999. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had $1,034,000 in cash and cash
equivalents. During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company used
approximately $518,000 in cash to acquire property and equipment, principally
for information systems and laboratory equipment. These property and equipment
acquisitions were financed mostly by borrowings under the revolving line of
credit.
The Company maintains a Credit Agreement with a bank. All borrowings are
secured by a lien on
11
<PAGE> 12
all assets of the Company. The Credit Agreement provides for borrowings under
the revolver limited to 85% of qualified accounts receivables up to a maximum of
$6,000,000. At March 31, 1999, the maximum that could be borrowed was $4,785,000
and approximately $1,337,000 was outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
Year-to-date net borrowings on the revolver were approximately $458,000 as of
March 31, 1999. The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants which,
among others, require the Company to maintain certain levels of net worth, cash
flow and profitability, and restricts the payment of dividends. As of March 31,
1999, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants.
On April 20, 1999, the Company entered into a $1,500,000 variable rate
installment note ("Installment Note") with its bank. The proceeds from the
Installment Note were immediately used to reduce the amount outstanding under
the Company's revolving line of credit. The Installment Note is subject to the
terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, bears interest at the bank's base
rate (currently prime) plus 1.0% and is payable over 60 months. The Company has
reclassified $1,289,000 of the revolving line of credit as long-term debt as of
March 31, 1999, as such debt was refinanced in April, 1999.
On April 30, 1999, the Company entered into a $1,082,000 lease agreement
with a lessor to refinance certain modules of the Company's Unified Database
software project. The lease agreement bears interest at 8.5% and is payable over
36 months. Proceeds from the lease agreement are expected to be used to finance
the Company's ongoing capital expenditure program.
The Company anticipates that existing cash balances, amounts available
under existing and future credit agreements and funds to be generated from
future operations will be sufficient to fund operations and forecasted capital
expenditures through 1999.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
PharmChem is subject to market risk with respect to its debt outstanding
and foreign currency transactions. The Company's revolving credit agreement and
installment note carry interest at the prime rate plus 1.0%. As the prime rate
increases, the Company will incur higher relative interest expense and
similarly, a decrease in the prime rate will reduce relative interest expense.
In recent years, there have not been significant fluctuations in the prime rate.
A 1.0% change in the prime rate would not materially change interest expense
assuming levels of debt consistent with historical amounts. Due to the Company's
international operations, certain transactions are conducted in foreign
currencies. Medscreen's transactions are denominated approximately 85% in pound
sterling and 15% in US currency. During the three month periods ending March 31,
1999 and 1998, Medscreen's net sales represented 16.7% and 16.4%, respectively,
of the Company's total net sales and, as a result, the impact of market risk on
foreign currency transactions is not considered material. These market risks are
not considered significant and, therefore, the Company does not intend to engage
in hedging transactions.
YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue is the result of date-sensitive devices,
systems and computer applications that were deployed using two digits rather
than four digits to define the applicable year. Therefore, these technologies
may improperly recognize a year containing "00" as 1900 rather than the
12
<PAGE> 13
year 2000. This may result in a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations. The Company is subject to various risks associated
with the Y2K impact on information systems software and hardware.
The Company has completed its assessment of the Y2K impact on internal
information systems. The assessment identified operational inefficiencies and
Y2K non-compliance of the existing laboratory information system ("LIS"). The
Company has commenced replacing its existing LIS with a new system that is Y2K
ready. The new LIS is expected to be implemented in mid-third quarter of 1999.
The Company estimates the cost to purchase and install the new LIS and related
hardware will be approximately $1 million. Excluding the LIS expenditures, the
Company estimates additional Y2K related expenditures of approximately $100,000
representing consulting costs and payroll for employees dedicated to Y2K
projects.
Due to the large volume of electronic transmissions, the Company has
conducted inquiries of customers, vendors and key business partners to identify
Y2K issues and continues to evaluate responses. During the second quarter of
1999, the Company will commence limited transmissions of test results to
selected customers using a four digit year to determine which customers can and
cannot receive such electronic results with a year field of four digits. The
Company's various internal drug test results reporting systems have been
reprogrammed and tested in a parallel systems environment and the Company
continues to test external results reporting services. The Company has reviewed
its facilities systems and found that many are not date sensitive. With respect
to other facilities systems and financial accounting systems, the Company is in
the process of obtaining documentation of Y2K compliance or replacing systems
that are not Y2K compliant.
For the period January 1, 1996 through March 31, 1999, the Company has
invested approximately $5.7 million in new information systems which have been
designed to enhance its operational capabilities as well as meet Y2K
requirements. The Company expects to complete all Y2K projects at various dates
through the end of the third quarter of 1999. All investments in information
systems and other Y2K projects have been funded or are expected to be funded by
internally generated cash, leases or bank financing.
The Company is in the process of refining its contingency plans to
consider additional scenarios whereby Y2K readiness is not significantly
achieved by the Company and/or its key customers, business partners and vendors.
The Company believes that the "most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000
scenario" would result from a failure of third party transportation systems
which would prevent the Company from receiving specimens to test. These
contingency plans, including issues involving providers of transportation
services, are expected to be completed in mid-1999. If the Company determines
that any critical supplier is not Y2K compliant, it will seek alternate
suppliers and, if it finds that alternate suppliers are not available, the
Company will purchase inventory in advance in excess of normal purchase levels.
In the event of information systems failures, the Company may utilize
appropriate manual procedures or alternate information systems for an interim
period. Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Y2K issues, resulting in
