INTRODUCTION
Meridian Medical Technologies, Inc. ("MMT", "Meridian", or the "Company") is a
medical device and drug delivery system company focusing on Early Intervention
Healthcare and Emergency Medical Technologies. The Company has three areas of
business. The Injectable Drug Delivery Systems business focuses on injectable
drug delivery devices with an emphasis on commercial auto-injectors, the largest
selling of which is the EpiPen. This business also supplies customized drug
delivery system design, pharmaceutical research and development, and sterile
product manufacturing to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. The
Cardiopulmonary Systems business focuses on non-invasive cardiac diagnostics and
telemedicine. The Cardiopulmonary Systems business is beginning the
international distribution of the PRIME ECG system, an 80-lead cardiac mapping
system designed for rapid and improved diagnostic accuracy of cardiac ischemia.
Distributors in major European markets are being targeted and, subject to the
completion of negotiations and execution of distribution agreements, will become
distributors of the system over the coming months. A U.S. based FDA approved
clinical study of the PRIME ECG system began in November 1999. Meridian intends
to complete the study by the fourth quarter of calendar 2000. Subject to a
successful completion of the clinical, a 510(k) application will be made to the
FDA for approval to market the product in the U.S. The Government Systems
business focuses on the world-wide market for auto-injectors used for
self-administration of nerve agent antidotes, morphine and diazepam, and markets
to the U.S. and allied governments, as well as local governments for civil
defense applications.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The Quarter and Six Months in Review
MMT's net income was $207,000 ($.07 basic and $.06 diluted earnings per share)
on sales of $12.1 million for the quarter ended January 31, 2000, the second
quarter of fiscal 2000. This compares with a net loss of $774,000 ($0.26 basic
and diluted loss per share) on sales of $9.8 million in the same period of
fiscal 1999. On a year-to-date basis, MMT had net income of $561,000 ($.19 basic
and $.17 diluted earnings per share) on sales of $23.8 million, compared with a
net loss of $507,000 ($0.17 basic and diluted loss per share) on sales of $20.7
million in the same period of fiscal 1999.
Revenues of MMT's three areas of business and total gross profit for the
three-month and six-month periods ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 are as
follows:

</TABLE>
Drug Delivery Systems business revenue in the fiscal second quarter ended
January 31, 2000 was $4.8 million, $3.3 million higher than in the comparable
prior year period. The 229% increase in revenue resulted from higher sales of
EpiPens in the current quarter, compared to the same quarter in the prior year,
when free EpiPens were being supplied to fulfill obligations relating to the May
8, 1998 product recall. Year-to-date revenues were $10.9 million for the six
months ended January 31, 2000, compared to $7.5 million for the same period in
the prior year, reflecting the impact of the recall on 1999 revenues. The
Company believes demand for the EpiPen is strong and continues to expect sales
to reach a record level in fiscal 2000. FDA approval for the third generic drug
under the Mylan alliance was received in November 1999.
Government Systems revenues were $7.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2000, compared to $7.9 million in the prior year comparable period. The 11.3%
decrease in revenues resulted primarily from lower sales to the USDoD,
reflecting the timing of military procurements. Year-to-date Government Systems
revenues were $12.5 million for the six months ended January 31, 2000, compared
to $12.6 million for the same period of the prior year. The Company continues to
develop the multi-chambered auto-injector (MA), the next-generation military
drug delivery system. The MA features a dual chamber that allows the automatic
injection of two drugs in succession using the same device. A New Drug
Application (NDA) for the MA has been submitted to the FDA on behalf of the U.S.
Army. Production is anticipated to begin in the first half fiscal 2001, subject
to the requisite approvals and government purchase orders.
Cardiopulmonary Systems revenues were $255,000 in the current year fiscal second
quarter compared to $459,000 in the prior year. The lower revenues reflect the
timing of orders. Demand for telemedicine products is now increasing and advance
purchase orders have been received for the second half of fiscal 2000. The
telemedicine line of products includes devices designed to monitor a broad range
of physiologic parameters, primarily focused on blood pressure and ECG. Other
products monitor weight, oxygen content and pulmonary function. On a
year-to-date basis, revenues of $396,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2000
compare to $612,000 for fiscal 1999.

Progress continues on the PRIME ECG advanced electrocardiac mapping system. The
PRIME ECG is a unique, 80-lead electrocardiac mapping system that offers the
potential to significantly improve the diagnosis and treatment of heart disease.
Clinical trials began in November 1999 at the Medical College of Virginia, and
the Company intends to complete the trials and submit results to the FDA for
marketing approval by the end of calendar 2000. The Company has signed a
distribution agreement for Australia and is actively negotiating distribution
agreements with several companies to market the product in western Europe.
Gross profits were $4.8 million or 39.5% of revenues during the second quarter
of 2000, compared to $2.4 million or 24.5% for the same period of the prior
year. On a year-to-date basis, gross profit of $9.5 million or 39.7% of revenues
in 2000 compares to $6.6 million or 31.8% in 1999. Gross profits improved for
the quarter and year-to-date reflecting the return of EpiPen sales to historical
levels.
Operating costs were $3.6 million in the fiscal 2000 second quarter, compared to
$2.8 million incurred in the second quarter of last year. For the first six
months of the fiscal year, operating costs were $6.8 million compared to $5.8
million last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were
$420,000 and $473,000 higher for the second quarter and year-to-date,
respectively, compared to prior year, due to the infrastructure investment to
support forecasted operations. R&D costs were also higher for the second quarter
and year-to-date compared to prior year due to certain costs relating to the
PRIME ECG project which qualified for capitalization in the prior year.
Investment in R&D continues to be an objective of the Company.
Interest expense was $831,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2000, and $1.7
million year-to-date. This is consistent with the comparable periods of the
prior year, reflecting higher market interest rates, offset by lower average
debt balances.
The provision for income taxes in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 was
$132,000, continuing to reflect an estimated effective tax rate of 39% for the
year. The tax provision incorporates estimated benefits from utilization of
operating loss carryforwards, offset by permanent book to tax differences.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total cash as of January 31, 2000 was $458,000, an increase of $231,000 from the
prior year ended July 31, 1999. The Company provided $1.3 million from
operations in the first six months of fiscal 2000 attributable mostly to net
income and non-cash depreciation, as well as higher accounts payable, offset by
higher accounts receivable and inventories. Inventories increased $2.3 million
during the first six months of fiscal 2000 as the Company prepares to meet
strong order demand in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2000. Investing
activities in the six months of fiscal 2000 used $571,000 of cash for capital
additions. Financing activities used $475,000, primarily from net payments on
existing debt. Availability under the working lines of credit was $1.2 million
at January 31, 2000, which increased subsequent to quarter end due to the
collection of receivables.
Working capital at January 31, 2000 was $5.8 million, up from $4.4 million at
July 31, 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to higher inventories
($2.3 million), offset by higher accounts payable and other accrued liabilities
($1.2 million). At January 31, 2000, accounts receivable were $10.2 million,
representing 70 days-sales-outstanding, and inventories were $9.2 million
representing a turn-over rate of 3.6 times per year.
Year 2000
The Company successfully completed its program to address the Year 2000 (Y2K)
issue as outlined in its Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1999. As of the
date of this filing, the Company has experienced no significant adverse effects
on its business or operations as a result of the Year 2000.

FORM 10-Q
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
The Company's earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S.
dollar, as compared to foreign currencies, as a result of transactions in
foreign markets. At January 31, 2000, the result of a uniform 10% strengthening
or weakening in the value of the dollar relative to the currencies in which the
Company's transactions are denominated would have resulted in an immaterial
increase or decrease in operating income for the six months ended January 31,
2000. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same
direction relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition to the direct effects of
changes in exchange rates, which are a changed dollar value of the resulting
sales, changes in exchange rates also affect the volume of sales or the foreign
currency sales price as competitors' services become more or less attractive.
The Company's sensitivity analysis of the effects of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in sales levels or local
currency prices.
While the Company is exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of its
outstanding debt, the Company does not currently utilize any derivative
financial instruments related to its interest rate exposure. Total short-term
and long-term debt outstanding at January 31, 2000 was $26.0 million, consisting
of $11.4 million in variable rate borrowing and $14.6 million in fixed rate
borrowing. At this level of variable rate borrowing, a hypothetical 10% increase
in interest rates would have decreased pre-tax earnings by approximately $57,000
for the six months ended January 31, 2000. At January 31, 2000, the fair value
of the Company's fixed rate debt outstanding was estimated at $15.0 million. A
hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not result in a material change
in the fair value of the Company's fixed rate debt.
