NOTE C - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING

     On May 24, 2000, the Company  completed a private  placement  offering with
net  proceeds  of  $6,062,365.   The  offering  consisted  of  units  of  senior
subordinated  convertible notes,  common stock and warrants.  Each unit was sold
for  $500,000  and  consisted  of  one  $500,000  senior  subordinated   secured
convertible note, 200,000 warrants to purchase common stock and 93,750 shares of
common stock.

     The senior subordinated secured convertible notes mature on April 30, 2005,
with no  principal  payments  required  until  maturity.  The notes  provide for
quarterly  interest  payments at the annual rate of 8%. The  effective  interest
rates on these  notes was  calculated  to be  approximately  58% and an original
issue discount of  approximately  $5,185,000 is being amortized over the term of
the notes.

     The new notes are  convertible  at $2.50 with a  potential  reset after six
months,  based on the then stock price,  but to not less than $2.00. The Company
may force the  notes to be  converted  at any time  after the  common  stock has
traded above $4.50 for ten consecutive business days. Additionally,  the Company
may  prepay  the  notes at any time at the full  face  value of the  notes  plus
accrued and unpaid interest.

     The warrants  issued allow the holder to purchase one share of common stock
at an  exercise  price of $2.75 at any time on or after  April 30,  2001,  until
April 30, 2002. In conjunction  with the sale of the units,  2,526,000  warrants
were issued.  Using the  Black-Scholes  option  pricing model the estimated fair
value of the warrants was  approximately  $1.34 each or $3,384,840 in aggregate.
The Company may call the  warrants  for $.10 per warrant at any time after April
30, 2000 if the closing  price of Hemagen's  common stock  exceeds $4.25 for ten
consecutive business days.

     The offering  provided for the issue of 1,184,063 shares of common stock to
the unit holders.  These shares were valued at approximately $1.52 per share for
a total value of $1,799,776.

NOTE D - INCOME TAXES

     No provision for income taxes has been accrued during the periods presented
due to the availability of net operating loss carry forwards.

NOTE E - RECLASSIFICATIONS

     Certain  reclassifications have been made to 1999 amounts to conform to the
2000 presentation.

Overview

     Hemagen Diagnostics,  Inc. (the "Company") is a biotechnology company which
develops,  manufactures, and markets medical diagnostic test kits used to aid in
the  diagnosis of certain  autoimmune  and  infectious  diseases.  In the United
States,  the Company sells its products  directly to physicians,  veterinarians,
clinical  laboratories  and blood  banks and on a  private-label  basis  through
multinational  distributors of medical  supplies.  Internationally,  the Company
sells its products primarily through distributors. The Company also manufactures
and sells an FDA-cleared  clinical  chemistry  analyzer ("The  Analyst") used to
measure important  constituents in human and animal blood. The Company sells The
Analyst both directly and through  distributors  servicing both the  physicians'
office  laboratory and veterinary  markets.  The Company was incorporated in the
Commonwealth  of  Massachusetts  in 1985  and  reincorporated  in the  state  of
Delaware in 1992.

Results of Operations

The Three Month Period Ended June 30, 2000
Compared to the Three Month Period Ended  June 30, 1999

     Revenues  for the three month  period  ending June 30,  2000  decreased  to
approximately  $2,859,000  from  approximately  $3,699,000  for the same  period
ending June  30,1999.  This  decrease is primarily  due to Analyst  product line
sales that were lower than the prior year.  Sales levels in 1999 were  benefited
by initial stocking orders with the North American distributor.  The sale of the
Company's  Cellular Products,  Inc.  subsidiary in June 1999 resulted in reduced
sales of approximately  $253,000.  Offsetting these decreases was an increase in
sales at the Company's Raichem division.



                                       8
<PAGE>


     Cost of product sales  increased  from  approximately  $2,157,000 or 58% of
sales to  approximately  $2,786,000  or 97% of sales.  This  increase in cost of
product sales is mainly  attributed  to  inefficiencies  resulting  from initial
startup costs after the relocation of the Analyst  product line to the Company's
Maryland facility,  combined with increased inventory reserves booked for excess
Analyst equipment and parts.

     Research and development expenses decreased to approximately  $108,000 from
approximately  $311,000 (65%), due to workforce  reductions and reduced facility
costs allocated to research and development. The Company is currently working to
complete several research and development programs.

     The  Company  recently  received  clearance  from  the  FDA to  market  the
Virgo(R)(beta)2   Glycoprotein   I  lgA  Antibody   Kit,   the   Virgo(R)(beta)2
Glycoprotein  I lgG  Antibody  Kit and the  VIRGO(R)(beta)2  Glycoprotein  I lgM
Antibody  Kit.  These ELISA kits aid in the  diagnosis of Primary and  Secondary
Antiphospholipid  Syndrome. This Syndrome is characterized by unusual thrombotic
events  (coagulation)  and poses a significant  threat to several organ systems.
This assay alerts the physician to the autoimmune  disease and allows him/her to
treat the  patient  accordingly.  In  addition  to these  products,  Hemagen  is
developing  several  other  complementary  assays  to  our  already  significant
portfolio of autoimmune disease products.  To date, Hemagen has more than 15 FDA
cleared products to aid in the differential diagnosis of autoimmune disease.

     On  February  1, 2000,  the  Company  announced  that it signed a long-term
agreement  to  provide  reagents  and  diagnostic  kits  to  Roche   Diagnostics
Corporation.   The  extent  of  the  agreement   encompasses   thirty   products
manufactured  by the Company's  Raichem  division which are expected to generate
revenues  in excess of seven  million  dollars  over the next three  years.  The
Company will submit several  products for FDA clearance in conjunction with this
agreement in order to market those specific  products for use on the Roche Cobas
Mira Clinical Chemistry Analyzer.

     Selling,   general  and  administrative   ("SG&A")  expenses  decreased  to
approximately $1,004,000 from approximately $1,117,000,  due to reduced spending
at all of the  Company's  divisions.  In the first  quarter of fiscal 2000,  the
Company  reduced its  workforce  by 20%  providing  savings in the third  fiscal
quarter.

     Other expenses  decreased to  approximately  $$273,000  from  approximately
$70,000 due to foreign  exchange losses  experienced in 1999 offset by increased
interest  expense.  This  increase  in  interest  expense  was the result of the
increased  borrowings that were used to finance  operations and a higher rate of
interest in 2000. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources").

     The net loss for the period was approximately $1,311,000 as compared to net
income of approximately  $45,000 in the prior period. This loss is primarily due
to reduced sales,  and increased  costs  associated with the  inefficiencies  of
relocating of Analyst production as described above.



                                       9
<PAGE>



The Nine Month Period Ended June 30, 2000
Compared to the Nine Month Period Ended June 30, 1999

     Revenues  for the six  month  period  ending  June 30,  2000  decreased  to
approximately  $8,123,000  from  approximately  $11,956,000  for the same period
ending June 30, 1999. In the nine month period ended June 30, 1999,  the Company
shipped initial stock to our North American distributor.  Sales of the Company's
blood  bank  products  were  lower in the nine  months  ended  June 30,  2000 as
shipments to the product  lines  primary  distributor,  Olympus,  terminated  in
January 1999. The effect of the sale of the Company's  Cellular  Products,  Inc.
division in July 1999 resulted in reduced sales. Additionally,  reduced sales of
the Company's  Virgo product line and reduced  contract  manufacturing  sales to
Carter Wallace were also experienced in the nine months ended June 30, 2000.

     Cost of product  sales  decreased  from a result of reduced sales offset by
increased  manufacturing  costs  experienced  in the nine months  ended June 30,
2000. As a percentage of sales,  cost of product sales increased from 61% to 90%
percent of sales.  This increase is attributed to the  relocation of the Analyst
business to the Company's own facilities. The cost of product sales was impacted
by  relocation  expenses,  duplicate  manufacturing  costs  associated  with the
relocation, and the loss of the high margin blood banking business.

     Research  and  development  expenses  decreased  as a result of work  force
reductions  and lower  facility  costs in this  area.  For a detail  of  current
research and  development  projects see the  comparison  of three month  periods
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 above.

     Selling,  general and  administrative  ("SG&A")  expenses  decreased due to
workforce reductions,  reduced marketing expenditures, and cost savings programs
implemented during the nine months ended June 30, 2000.

     Other expenses  increased  during the same period last year.  This increase
resulted from increased  interest expense and loan amortization  associated with
the private placement offering completed on May 24, 2000. The increased interest
expense is  attributable  to higher  borrowings  and an increase in the interest
rate paid by the Company.

     Net  loss  for the nine  months  ended  June  30,  2000  was  approximately
$2,976,000 as compared to income of $52,000 in the same last year.  This loss is
attributed to lower sales offset by reduced SG&A expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company finances its operating  requirements,  capital expenditures and
growth primarily from cash flow from operations,  a private  placement  offering
completed on May 24, 2000, an unsecured seller note and customer deposits.

     On May 24, 2000, the Company  closed on an offering of units  consisting of
8% Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes, Common Stock and Warrants, the
net proceeds of this  offering  were  $6,062,365.  The proceeds of this offering
were used to pay off the revolving line of credit with Bank of Boston in full on
April 20, 2000, and pay trade creditors.



                                       10
<PAGE>




     At June 30,  2000,  the  Company  had a working  capital  of  approximately
$5,350,000  compared to working capital of  approximately  $872,000 at September
30, 1999. This increase was principally due to the pay off of the revolving line
of  credit  with  Bank of Boston  and as a result  of the cash  provided  by the
private placement offering.

     Capital  expenditures  for the  nine  months  ended  June  30,  2000,  were
approximately  $283,000  and  were  related  to the  relocation  of the  Analyst
business to the Company's Columbia, MD facility.

     On April 19, 2000, the Company  announced its decision to  consolidate  its
operations and close its Waltham, Massachusetts facility by December 31, 2000. A
plan is currently being developed to relocate products currently produced in the
Massachusetts facility to the Company's facilities in Maryland and Brazil. Other
products  that are not  profitable  will be  discontinued.  The  Company has not
quantified the costs and anticipated  savings associated with this consolidation
at this time.

     After   consideration  of  the  expense  reduction  measures   implemented,
management believes its cash together with anticipated cash flow from operations
and proceeds the offering  described below, are sufficient to meet the Company's
cash needs for its ongoing business during fiscal 2000.

Impact of Inflation

     Domestic  inflation  during  the  last  two  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.
