Income from operations represents sales less costs and operating expenses. In
computing income from operations, all overhead expenses have been allocated to
both industry segments, as they are an integral part of profit recognition for
each segment. Identifiable assets by segment of business are those assets used
in the Company's operations in each segment. There are no unallocated Company
assets.

NOTE 5:           Subsequent event

Subsequent to August 31, 1999, the Company renewed its unsecured short-term line
of credit with its commercial bank. Terms were revised to reduce the interest
rate to the bank's prime rate less 0.25% or LIBOR plus 2.00%. Prior to the
renewal, interest rates were either at the bank's prime rate or LIBOR plus
2.50%. In addition, the new agreement calls for certain covenants regarding
earnings and current ratio. If this agreement had been in effect at August 31,
1999, the Company would have been in compliance with the loan covenants.

                            SCHMITT INDUSTRIES, INC.
                                    FORM 10-Q
                         FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 1999

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS:

The following information contains certain forward-looking statements that
anticipate future trends or events. These statements are based on certain
assumptions that may prove to be erroneous and are subject to certain risks
including but not limited to the uncertainties of the Company's new product
introductions and the risks of increased competition and technological change in
the Company's industry. Accordingly, actual results may differ, possibly
materially, from the predictions contained herein.

Company operations improved during the first quarter of fiscal 2000, ended
August 31, 1999, as evidenced by an increase in sales and a return to profitable
operations. In comparison to the same period last year, Balancer product sales
have grown in the United States while softness in the industry in the United
Kingdom and Germany has resulted in a decline in sales in those markets. The
overall result is that Balancer sales are flat when compared to year-ago levels.
Sales of Schmitt Measurement Systems, Inc. ("SMS") products were at expected
levels for the quarter and up slightly from the prior year. The increase
occurred as the worldwide computer industry has begun to improve after several
months of a decline in activity. The overall result was a net income of $84,542
for the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

Results of Operations:

Sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 increased to $2,012,797 versus
$1,984,671 in the same period last year. This increase occurred in the
measurement segment of the business. SMS sales totaled $229,555 in the first
quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to $167,667 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
The Company expects continued improvement in measurement sales throughout fiscal
2000 as the computer industry continues to rebound and sales of the new Dynamic
Roll Monitor begin to be realized. Worldwide sales of balancer products were
$1,783,242 for the three months ended August 31, 1999 compared to sales of
$1,817,004 for the same period last year. Once again, domestic sales were higher
while sales into the European markets declined slightly. The upward trend in
sales in the United States is expected to continue while the decline in Europe
is believed to be short-term as revenues in those markets are expected to
improve over the remainder of fiscal 2000.

First quarter cost-of-sales decreased to 48% of sales versus 52% in the same
period last year. Cost-of-sales of SMS products was 43% for the first quarter
2000 versus 62% in the same period last year and the cost of sales percentage of
Balancer products was 48% compared to 51% for the same period last year.
Management expects cost-of-sales of Balancer and Measurement products to
approximate these levels for the remainder of fiscal 1999.

First quarter general and administrative and R&D expenses totaled $962,995
versus $1,030,285 for the same period last year. This decrease is attributable
primarily to a slight decline in research and development expenditures over the
same period last year. These expenses were skewed heavily to the first quarter
of fiscal 1999 as 38% of research and development expenses for that year were
incurred in the first fiscal quarter. Expenses of $129,925 in the first quarter
of fiscal 2000 were in line with budgeted amounts. As a percentage of revenues,
operating expenses (including R&D) during the first three months of fiscal 1999
were 48% compared to 52% for the same period last year. Both general and
administrative and research and development expenses declined as a percentage of
revenues compared to year ago levels. Management estimates if revenue
projections are reached these costs will stabilize at approximately 45% for
fiscal 2000.

Sales by the foreign subsidiaries totaled $498,119 for the quarter versus
$732,903 for the same quarter last year. There was some softness in the market
during the first quarter but these changes are expected to be only short term as
management anticipates revenues for the remainder of the fiscal year to
approximate year ago levels.

                            SCHMITT INDUSTRIES, INC.
                                    FORM 10-Q
                         FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 1999

In the three-month period ended August 31, 1999, pretax earnings amounted to
$118,542 compared to a pretax loss of ($39,957) for the same period last year.
Taxes were accrued at approximately 29% of domestic pretax income, compared with
23% in the same period last year. Management anticipates that the tax rate for
fiscal 2000 will approximate 30%. Three-month net earnings were $84,542 compared
to a net loss of $51,457 for the same period last year. Three-month earnings per
share, basic and diluted, were $0.01 versus a net loss per share, basic and
diluted, of $(0.01) last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The Company's working capital position improved to $5,927,046 at August 31, 1999
compared to $5,812,075 at May 31, 1999. Cash stood at $676,252 at August 31,
1999 compared to $268,888 at May 31, 1999.

During the three-month period ended August 31, 1999, net cash provided by
operating activities totaled $452,393, including net operating income of
$84,542. Included in cash flow from operating activities were a $155,551
decrease in accounts receivable, a $139,067 increase in inventories and a
$218,685 increase in accounts payable. The decrease in the Company's accounts
receivable was due to the sales mix during the three-month period ended August
31, 1999 compared with the immediately preceding quarter. As a result of its
high-quality customer base, the Company has experienced nearly 100% collection
and no reserve for uncollectable accounts, returns or allowances has been
established. The increase in the inventories and accounts payable occurred as
the Company assumed the assembly operations for its SBS control units from a
vendor that had been performing those operations. The amounts due for the items
purchased will be paid as the items are used in production. This assembly
process was assumed as a management study disclosed the units could be assembled
more cost effectively at Schmitt with no loss in quality.

Net cash used by investing activities was $56,468 (consisting primarily of
additions to property and equipment). There was no cash used by financing
activities.

Management believes that cash from operations, available credit resources and
its working capital position will provide adequate funds on a short-term basis
to cover currently foreseeable payments, commitments and payments under existing
and anticipated supplier agreements. Management believes that such cash flow is
also sufficient to finance current short-term operations, projected capital
expenditures, anticipated short-term sales agreements and other contingencies
during at least the next six months.

Management is currently reviewing long-range capital requirements as they relate
to expansion of products and markets. This analysis may or may not result in
future decisions to seek additional funding for the Company via debt or equity
to service the Company's future growth requirements.

Impact of the year 2000 issue:

The Company has completed an assessment of the impact of the Year 2000 issue on
its internal systems and equipment, on it products and on the systems of its
significant vendors. Based on this assessment, the Company believes that its
internal systems have been updated to address the Year 2000 issue, its products
will properly recognize calendar dates beginning in the Year 2000, and its
significant vendors are appropriately addressing the Year 2000 issue.
Accordingly, the Company believes it is year 2000 ready and does not expect that
the Year 2000 will have a material impact on the Company's business, results of
operations or financial condition. However, there can be no assurance that the
systems of other companies on which the Company relies will not have an adverse
effect on the Company's systems.

                         FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 1999

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK:

Interest Rate Risk

The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments as of August 31,
1999. However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk. The Company employs
established policies and procedures to manage its exposure to changes in the
market risk of its marketable securities.

The Company's interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the
general level of U.S. and European interest rates. In this regard, changes in
U.S. and European interest rates affect the interest earned on the Company's
cash equivalents and marketable securities as well as interest paid on debt.

The Company has a line of credit whose interest rate is based on various
published prime rates that may fluctuate over time based on economic changes in
the environment. The Company is subject to interest rate risk and could be
subject to increased interest payments if market interest rates fluctuate. The
Company does not expect any change in the interest rates to have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results from operations.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company operates subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and Germany. The
Company's business and financial condition is, therefore, sensitive to currency
exchange rates or any other restrictions imposed on their currencies. To date,
the foreign currency exchange rates have not significantly impacted the
Company's profitability.
