Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Results of Operations
Quarter Ended March 31, 2000 as compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1999.
NET SALES. Total sales for the first quarter of 2000 increased 3% over the
first quarter of 1999 to $9,760,241, representing an increase of $305,807.
The following table shows sales by subsidiary for first quarter of 2000 and
1999:
March 31, March 31,
Subsidiary 2000 1999 % increase (decrease)
Eaton $6,759,436 $5,697,864 18.6%
Anton 551,893 709,421 (22.2)
ADCO 1,559,517 1,379,808 13.0
SCBA 3,192 4,296 (25.6)
ADCO South 333,114 280,433 18.8
Conway 511,411 1,382,612 (63.0)
Nyer Internet 41,678 -
$9,760,241 $9,454,434
The major reason for the increase in revenues was due to the
Company's pharmacy chain, Eaton. Eaton sales increased due to their
increased volume on prescription drugs as a result of continued
marketing campaign which is focused on assisted-living and home-based
sectors. ADCO's sales increased $179,709 in 2000, as compared to the
first quarter of 1999 due mainly to continued growth of its Nevada division,
its respiratory division, and a continued focus and effort on marketing
to the nursing home and physician markets. The major reason for the
decrease in Conway's sales was the sale of three fire trucks in
the first quarter of 1999 as compared to no fire truck sales in
FORM 10-Q NYER MEDICAL GROUP, INC. 000-20175 MARCH 31, 2000
NYER MEDICAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
Results of Operations: continued,
the first quarter of 2000. The Company intends to focus more on fire
equipment and supplies and less on fire truck sales due to lower margins
realized on the sale of fire trucks. As a result, the Company expects
Conway's sales to decline in the short term with expected increases
in gross margin.
GROSS PROFIT MARGIN. The Company's overall gross margins were approximately
20.4% in 2000 as compared 19.3% for the first quarter of 1999.
The following is a table of gross margins by subsidiary for the first
quarter of 2000 and 1999:
March 31, March 31,
Subsidiary 2000 1999
Eaton 18.9% 20.2%
Anton 16.1 19.6
ADCO 26.8 24.2
SCBA 23.5 41.2
ADCO South 22.5 29.1
Conway 22.3 8.1
Nyer Internet 13.5 -
Eaton's gross margin declined due to continued lower reimbursements from
insurance companies, medicare and medicaid. They believe they can off set
this decline by increased sales volume. ADCO South's decline was due to
increased equipment sales which generally result in lower gross profit
margins than supplies sales. Conway's increase in margin was the result of
three fire truck deliveries in the first quarter of 1999 as compared to no
fire truck deliveries in the first quarter of 2000.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Consolidated selling, general,
and administrative expenses increased approximately 4.5% in 2000 to
$2,187,105 from $2,093,703 in the first quarter of 1999. The following table
shows the breakdown by subsidiary (and corporate expenses) as follows:

$ 2,187,105 $ 2,093,703
Anton's decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses
were due to less personnel and costs associated with lower sales.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Results of Operations: continued,
to additional salesmen in its Nevada and New England divisions, increased
expenses in its respiratory division (started in February 1999) and increased
marketing costs. Nyer Internet incurred selling, general, and administrative
expenses of 28,994 due to web site development costs which had lower than
expected sales to offset the overhead.
CONTINUING OPERATIONS. In total, the Company experienced a net loss of
$139,914 in 2000 as compared to a net loss of $141,788 in the first quarter
of 1999.
The following table summarizes the loss from continuing operations by
subsidiary:
March 31, March 31,
Subsidiary 2000 1999

Nyle Home Health (317)
Nyer Internet (29,362) -
$ (139,914) $ (141,788)
Eaton's income for the first quarter of 2000 as compared to a
loss for the same period in 1999 is mainly due to increased sales of
$1,061,572, an increase of 18.6%, while selling, general, and
administrative expenses increased only $7,397. Eaton's gross margin
declined by 1.3%. The increased volume coupled with only a slight
increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses off-set the
decline in margin. ADCO's increased loss is due to two additional
salesmen, increased expenses in its respiratory division (started in
February 1999) and increased marketing costs.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In October 1999, the Board of Directors approved a plan for the disposal
of its investment in Nyer Nutritional Systems, Inc. The results of NNS have
been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
The Company has signed a letter of intent with National
Distribution and Contracting Inc. (NDC) to purchase the assets of
NNS, subject to the successful completion of a clinical trial and
execution of a patent license assignment by the 20% owner of Nyer
Nutritional, who owns the patents. The Company expects to complete
the transaction no later than July 15, 2000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, continued
The Company incurred approximately $78,475 of expenses related to
the NNS business for the first quarter of 2000 and $84,588 for the
same period in 1999.
The Company has reported the assets to be disposed, primarily
inventory and patents, on the balance sheet as an investment in
discontinued operation. Revenues for NNS were $0 for the quarters ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Net interest expense as a percentage of sales was less than 1% in the
first three months of 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used in operating activities was $235,985 for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000 and $378,221 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The
primary use of cash from operations in 2000 was to fund operations for the
Company's Nutritional and medical supply businesses. The Company partially
offset its net loss by increases in accounts payable.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $64,251 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $(32,032) for the same period of
1999.
Net cash (used in) provided by in financing activities was $(78,411)
for the first quarter of 2000 as compared to $133,662 for the same period in
1999.
The Company anticipates its current cash resources are adequate to fund
its current operating needs. Additionally, the Company anticipates receiving
cash from the disposal of Nyer Nutritional in 2000. The Company has retained
a financial advisor to raise capital necessary to expand its business. There
can be no assurance that this capital can be raised or that the Nyer
Nutritional sale will occur.
