               NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

                                  July 31, 2000


BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed 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. The preparation of the Company's financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted principles necessarily requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance
sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the
reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates and
assumptions. Operating results for the three  month period  ended July 31, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended April 30, 2001. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and footnotes thereto for the year ended April 30, 2000 on Form 10-KSB.

CONTRACT RESEARCH INCOME

Contract research income is recognized as work is completed and as billable
costs are incurred. In some cases, contract research income is based on
attainment of certain designated milestones.

NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for basic earnings per share and on the weighted
average number of common shares and share equivalents (stock options)
outstanding for diluted earnings per share.

WORKING CAPITAL REVOLVING LOAN

In February 2000 the Company renewed its working capital credit line at
$6,000,000. At July 31, 2000 the rate for borrowings was 8.12% and there was no
balance outstanding. Borrowings under the line are collateralized by inventory,
accounts receivable and other assets. The agreement contains covenants with
respect to working capital, net worth and certain ratios, as well as other
covenants and prohibits the payment of cash dividends.

CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS

The Company's products and facilities are subject to regulation by a number of
Federal and State governmental agencies. The Food & Drug Administration,
("FDA"), in particular, maintains oversight of the formulation, manufacture,
distribution, packaging and labeling of all of the Company's products.

In September 2000, the FDA issued to the Company its Form 483, "Inspectional
Observations", for their inspection of the Company's facilities. The Company is
preparing its response to these observations. In July 1999 the FDA issued a
"Warning Letter" which indicated certain areas of particular concern. The
Company has implemented a Corrective Action Plan as a result of the Warning
Letter. The plan includes the hiring of additional personnel in certain areas of
the Company's operations which has resulted in additional overhead expense.

The Company  had gross sales to Watson Pharmaceuticals (formerly Rugby
Laboratories) which accounted for approximately 17% and 10% of the gross sales
during the quarters ended July 31, 2000 and 1999 respectively. Zenith Goldline
Laboratories, an Ivax company, accounted in the aggregate for approximately 13%
of the gross sales during the quarter ended July 31, 1999. At July 31, 2000,
Watson Pharmaceutical's receivables were 22% of the total outstanding.

The Company has a net investment of approximately $143,000 in a joint venture
for the marketing and development of a nutritional supplement. In addition, the
Company has guaranteed $1,500,000 of revolving debt of this joint venture to its
commercial lender. Mr. Reuben Seltzer, a director of the Company, has an
interest in the joint venture. Mr. Reuben Seltzer is the son of Mr. Bernard
Seltzer, Chairman of the Board of the Company.

In May 1997, the Company announced a stock buy-back program under which the
Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to $500,000 of its common
stock. In August 1999 the Company increased the stock buy-back program to an
aggregate of $1,000,000. As of July 31, 2000  the Company had purchased 149,900
shares at a cost of $619,000.

ITEM 2

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

July 31, 2000

With the exception of the historical information contained in this Form 10-QSB,
the matters described herein may include "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking
statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could
cause actual results to materially differ from those projected or implied. These
risks include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to grow
internally or by acquisition, and to integrate acquired businesses, changing
industry and competitive conditions, and other risks outside the Company's
control referred to in its registration statement and periodic reports filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company disclaims any
obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended July 31, 2000 net sales increased by $296,000, or 6%
compared to the fiscal 2000 respective period. Total net sales were $5,023,000
for the three month period ended July 31, 2000. The Company  had gross sales
to Watson Pharmaceuticals (formerly Rugby Laboratories) which accounted for
approximately 17% and 10% of the gross sales during the quarters ended July 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively. Zenith Goldline Laboratories, an Ivax company,
accounted in the aggregate for approximately 13% of the gross sales during the
quarter ended July 31, 1999. At July 31, 2000, Watson Pharmaceutical's
receivables were 22% of the total outstanding.

The Company's Health Care Products division, for the three months ended July 31,
2000, had gross sales of $859,000, which was $100,000 less than the fiscal 2000
respective period sales of $959,000.

Cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, decreased from 57.8% to 55.6% for
the three months ended July 31, 2000 compared to the three months ended July 31,
1999. This decrease  was principally the result of the mix of products produced
or sold.

Contract research income increased $52,000 and research and product development
costs for the three months ended July 31, 2000 increased  $88,000 or 30%
compared to the fiscal 2000 respective period, as a result of the completion of
more research projects.

Selling, general and administrative  expenses, as a percentage of net sales,
increased for the three months ended July 31, 2000 to 31% from 29% for the
fiscal 2000 respective period. Such percentage increase resulted from increased
selling expenses from additional sales personnel and increased advertising
activities.

Net income for the three months ended July 31, 2000 and 1999 was $271,000 and
$261,000, respectively, an increase of $ 10,000, because of the factors noted
above.
