                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE A - 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 Item
310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. Reference should be made to the financial
statements and related notes included in the Company's Form 10-KSB which was
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about December 29,
1997.

      In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying
financial statements reflect all adjustments which were of a normal recurring
nature necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's results of operations
and changes in financial position for the three month and nine month periods
ended June 30, 1998. Operating results for these periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September
30, 1998.

NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE

      In the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"), "Earnings per Share". SFAS
128 requires the presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share and
replaces previously required standards for computing and presenting earnings
per share. Earnings per share amounts for all periods have been presented and
where appropriate restated to conform to the requirements of SFAS 128.

      The following is a reconciliation of the denominator (number of shares)
used in the computation of earnings per share. The numerator (net income) is
the same for basic and diluted computations.

      In addition to the dilutive securities included in the calculation above,
options and warrants to purchase 3,640,173 shares of common stock at prices
ranging from $1.75 through $5.00 were outstanding during the three and nine
month periods ended June 30, 1998. Options and warrants to purchase 3,699,307
and 3,935,408 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $2.50 through $8.00
and $2.00 through $8.00 were outstanding during both the three and nine month
periods ended June 30, 1997 respectively. These shares were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS because the options' exercise price was greater than
the average market price of the common shares. These options and warrants
expire at various dates from 1997 through 2001.

NOTE C - RESTRICTED CASH

      A customer deposit of $560,900 was made during the three month period
ended March 31, 1998. This deposit was placed in an escrow account and is
released as shipments are made to the customer. The restricted balance in 
the escrow account as of June 30, 1998 was $96,050.

NOTE D - INCOME TAXES

      No provision for income taxes has been accrued during fiscal 1997 or
fiscal 1998 due to the availability of net operating loss carryforwards.


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

      This section contains certain forward-looking statements that are subject
to risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to those risks set forth
in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in the Prospectuses contained in the
Company's Registration Statements on Form S-3, Commission File Nos. 33-80009
and 333-6147 (which sections are hereby incorporated by reference herein).
These risks and uncertainties could cause the registrant's actual results in
future periods to differ materially from its historical results and from any
opinions or statements expressed in such forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report, and the
Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements.

Overview

      The Company has historically concentrated its efforts on developing,
manufacturing and marketing medical diagnostic test kits used to aid in the
diagnosis of certain diseases. In the past three years the Company has focused
its expansion efforts on synergistic acquisitions of companies, product lines
and assets. The Company and its subsidiaries offer approximately 110 different
test kits that have been cleared by the United States Food and Drug
Administration ("FDA"). Several additional test kits are sold in foreign
markets.

Results of Operations

The Three Month Period Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to the Three Month Period
 Ended June 30, 1997

      Revenues for the three month period ending June 30, 1998 increased to
approximately $3,453,000 from approximately $3,254,000 (6%) for the same period
ending June 30,1997. This increase was realized despite a significant decrease
in revenues from the Company's Carter Wallace manufacturing contract when 
compared to the same quarter the previous year. Excluding the Carter Wallace 
revenues, product sales from Hemagen's own products increased approximately 
12% for the period compared to same period last year. The increase is largely 
due to increases in sales of blood banking products and increases in sales 
from the Company's San Diego, CA (RAICHEM) and Brazil operations. Sales at 
RAICHEM have increased significantly during the three month period ending 
June 30, 1998 due primarily to increased sales in Latin America, Russia and 
the Far East. The increases in Brazil are due in a large part to substantial 
increases in sales of the Virgo product line produced in the Company's 
Maryland and Massachusetts facilities.

      Cost of product sales increased to approximately $2,002,000 from
approximately $1,880,000 (6%), due to the increase in sales. Cost of products
sales as a percentage of sales were 58% during both periods.

      Research and development expenses decreased to approximately $251,000
from approximately $267,000 (6%), primarily due to a decrease in personnel
costs allocated to research and development.

      The Company is currently working to complete several research and
development programs including:

Ferritin: An addition to RAICHEM's line of Specific Protein Immunoassay kits
(SPIAs) to measure iron deficiencies related to anemia and iron overload
related to several types of liver disease.

Measles IgG and IgM and Herpes I & II: To complement the Company's existing
line of ELISA assays to diagnose infectious diseases.

Anti Thyroglobulin (Anti TG) and Anti Thyroid Peroxidase (Anti TPO): ELISA
formatted kits used to diagnose Hashimato's Thyroditis and Grave's disease.
Both are automimmune related diseases affecting thyroid function.

Anti Beta 2 Glycoprotein 1 (Apolipoprotein H): A series of ELISA tests to
complement the Company's Cardiolipin kits as an important measure of
cardiovascular health.

Cardiolipin kit: A new generation Cardiolipin ELISA kit which will add
calibrators and liquid stable ready to use conjugate which will make the
present kit more sensitive and easier to use.

Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS): An early marker for septic shock being
developed in both ELISA and rapid point of care device formats.

Tests for both bovine and human tuberculosis ("TB"): The TB tests are being
developed in both ELISA and rapid point of care device formats.

      Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased to
approximately $936,000 from approximately $966,000 (3%), primarily due to a
decrease in payroll and personnel costs. Since inception the Company has used
telemarketing and sales literature as its primary selling tools. In May, 1998
the Company hired its first outside sales force to enhance sales and marketing
in the United States and Europe. The Company believes this additional selling
resource will increase the Company's sales and market share.

      Other income and expense changed to approximately $12,000 of income, 
net for the three months ended June 30, 1998, representing an increase of 
approximately $34,000 from a net expense of approximately $22,000 for the 
three months ended June 30, 1997. This change was due to a decrease in 
interest expense resulting from a reduction in long term debt.

      Net income was approximately $276,000 compared to $119,000 (132%),
primarily due to higher sales, and lower R&D and SG&A expenses.

The Nine Month Period Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to the Nine Month Period 
Ended June 30, 1997

      Revenues decreased to approximately $9,037,000 from approximately
$9,436,000 (4%). This decrease can be primarily attributed to an approximate
$742,000 decrease in contract manufacturing sales to Carter Wallace when
compared to revenues from Carter Wallace for the same period for the prior
fiscal year, offset in part by an increase in sales by other products offered
by the Company. Hemagen is not involved in the sale of the Carter Wallace 
products to the end-user and therefore does not control the sales volume of 
these products. Excluding the Carter Wallace contract revenues, revenues from
Hemagen's own products for the nine month period ended June 30, 1998 increased
approximately 4% when compared to revenues for Hemagen's products from the 
equivalent period during the previous fiscal year. This sales increase was the
result of an approximately $502,000 increase for the Hemagen/Virgo product 
lines produced at the Company's Massachusetts and Maryland sites, and an 
approximately $205,000 increase of Hemagen/Virgo products by Hemagen's 
Brazilian operation. These increases were partially offset by decreases at 
the Company's RAICHEM and Buffalo, NY operations. Although sales are slightly
down at RAICHEM for the nine month period, sales at RAICHEM have increased 
significantly during the three months ending June 30, 1998 due primarily to 
increased sales in Latin America, Russia and the Far East.

      Cost of product sales decreased to approximately $5,112,000 from
approximately $5,681,000 (10%) due in part to the decrease in sales, and in
part due to an increase in gross profit margins from 40% to 43%. This increase
in gross profit margins is due to increased sales of Hemagen's Virgo and blood
banking lines and the decreased sales to Carter Wallace whose revenues
represent significantly lower gross profit margins for Hemagen.

      Research and development expenses increased to approximately $803,000
from approximately $729,000 (10%), primarily due to increased personnel costs
in support of the Company's program to develop and complete several research
projects outlined in the discussion of the three month period ended June 30,
1998.

      During the nine month period ended June 30, 1998, the Company received
FDA clearance to market three new products, Virgo ANCA Screen, Virgo cANCA, and
Virgo pANCA which are used to aid in the diagnosis of patients with Wegener's
disease. Wegener's disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by lesions in
the upper and lower respiratory tract and kidney which is often misdiagnosed.

      Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to approximately
$2,726,000 from approximately $2,746,000 (1%), primarily due to lower public
relations expenses. This was partially offset by increased advertising
expenses. The Company has added an outside sales force to cover the United
States and European markets in order to increase its sales. Additionally, the
Company is conducting a significant advertising campaign to launch the products
that were cleared for sale by the FDA during the prior fiscal year.

      Other expense, net decreased to approximately $20,000 from approximately
$59,000 due to a decrease in interest expense resulting from a reduction in
long term debt.

      Net income was approximately $376,000 compared to $220,000 (71%),
primarily due to lower cost of sales, which was partially offset by higher
research and development.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Company has financed its capital expenditures, operating requirements
and growth primarily from the initial public offering of its common stock,
lease financing arrangements, cash flow from operations and private placements
completed in September 1995, and March 1996.

      On January 13, 1998 the Company announced that is has signed a letter of
intent to acquire the Analyst instrument business from Dade Behring Inc. The
Analyst is a versatile bench top clinical chemistry analyzer that the Company
believes is well positioned for the point of care market, which includes both
the physician office laboratory and the veterinary office laboratory. The
machine is easy to use, very reliable and can provide results of a panel of
clinical chemistries in ten minutes. The proprietary technology used to produce
the reagent rotor provides the Analyst with a cost effective, highly accurate
consumable.

      The consummation of the acquisition is subject to Hemagen's completing
its due diligence investigation of the Analyst business, the financing of the
acquisition and the negotiation and execution of a definitive written agreement
with Dade Behring. The Company presently anticipates completing the transaction
on or about August 31, 1998. The Company anticipates financing the acquisition
with line of credit which has been committed by a major international bank 
based in Boston, MA.

      At June 30, 1998, the Company's working capital was approximately
$6,777,000 compared to working capital of approximately $6,157,000 at September
30, 1997. Cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $627,000 for the
nine months ended June 30, 1998. This increase was a result of net cash
provided by operating and investing activities amounting to approximately
$528,000 and $454,000 respectively, offset by net cash used by financing
activities of approximately $356,000.

      Inventory balances increased from approximately $3,954,000 on September
30, 1997 to approximately $4,751,000 on June 30, 1998, in support of an
anticipated increase in product sales due to the increased marketing efforts.
The Company has begun a review of inventory levels to systematically set them
at appropriate levels.

      At August 1, 1998 the Company had a capital finance arrangement with a
company totaling approximately $273,000. The Company is required to pay an
average of $34,000 per month in the aggregate (including interest) under this
arrangement during fiscal 1998. The arrangement ends during fiscal 1999. The
Company anticipates pre-paying this debt using the line of credit mentioned 
above.

      Management believes its cash and cash equivalents and short-term
investments, together with anticipated cash flow from operations, are
sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs for its ongoing business.

Impact of Inflation

      Domestic inflation during the last three fiscal years has not had a
significant effect on the Company's business activities. Translation and
transaction gains and losses between the Company and its subsidiary in Brazil
are expensed each period.
