ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
A. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2000, the Registrant's pre-tax income
from operations amounted to $189,601, as compared to $365,611 for the first
quarter of fiscal 2000, ended April 30, 1999. This decrease in results is
primarily due to a decrease in operating profits at Dextran Products Limited
("Dextran") of $132,720, and an increase in corporate expenses of $40,196, over
the same quarter in fiscal 2000. The decrease in operating profits at Dextran is
primarily attributable to a decrease in margins and increased expenses during
the quarter as compared to the same quarter last year, including increases in
research and development costs and depreciation, as described below.
Sales volume for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased from $3,170,641 to
$3,392,829, representing an increase of $222,188 or 7%. Vet Labs experienced a
quarter over quarter increase in sales of $218,987 due to significantly
increased sales in the injectable product line. The increase in sales in the
injectable product line was partially offset by a decrease in sales in the
liquids product line. Within the injectable product line, there was a product
mix variance. Injectable iron dextran sales declined by approximately $84,000
from the first quarter in fiscal 2000. However this reduction was more than
offset by increased sales of injectable vitamin products of approximately
$321,000. Vet Labs continues to increase its market penetration with the vitamin
products. The reduction in sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 in the
liquids product line at Vet Labs is primarily attributable to the euthanasia
products. There were no sales of these products in the first quarter of fiscal
2001 due to the regulatory problems and prohibition on sales experienced by the
raw material supplier. Management expects that sales of these products will not
re-commence until late in 2000, when the necessary raw materials become
available. In the first quarter of fiscal 2000, sales of the euthanasia
products totaled $99,452. Sales at Dextran remained constant as compared to the
same quarter in fiscal 2000.
Gross margins decreased from 32% in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 to 28% in
the first quarter of fiscal 2001. Dextran's quarter over quarter gross margin
decreased from 46% to 43% while Vet Labs' gross margin remained relatively
constant as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The margin decrease at
Dextran is due to product mix variances and increased utility costs. In the
first quarter of fiscal 2000, there were higher than normal sales of higher
margin iron dextran product. Increased oil and gas costs in the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 have contributed to higher utility costs at Dextran. The new
production equipment uses more power because of its increased capacity.
Management expects to realize significant cost savings from the more efficient
new production equipment once the plant refurbishment is completed and
production capacity is increased.
Management expects strong sales and margins to continue at Dextran. The summer
months are typically slower sales months for Vet Labs as large animals are put
outdoors to pasture and therefore have less need for vitamins and other
supplements. Management is therefore forecasting lower sales levels in the
second quarter of fiscal 2001 than were achieved in the first quarter of fiscal
2001 at Vet Labs. Margins are expected to remain steady, but the expected lower
sales volume may reduce operating
-9-
profits for the second quarter of fiscal 2001. However, management expects sales
levels for the second quarter of fiscal 2001 to exceed sales levels achieved in
the second quarter of fiscal 2000 at Vet Labs.
General and administrative expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2001
increased by $10,597 or 3% from the first quarter of fiscal 2000 due primarily
to an increase in payroll. Depreciation and amortization in the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 increased by $14,532 or 11% from the first quarter of fiscal 2000
due primarily to the capital expenditures at Dextran relating to plant
refurbishment. Research and development costs in the first quarter of fiscal
2001 increased by $14,247 or 18% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000
due to the continued development of a raw material for a human injectable
product and the cellulose sulfate project. Development costs for these products
are expected to continue for the remainder of the year.
Research and development, in conjunction with the Rush Medical Center in
Chicago, relating to Cellulose Sulfate gel is progressing. Pre-IND tests have
indicated that this gel holds great promise as a topical prophylactic for
sexually transmitted diseases, including AIDS, and as a contraceptive. Phase I
human clinical trials to test the safety and tolerance of this gel were
successfully completed. This trial was funded by the Consortium for Industrial
Collaboration in Contraceptive Research (CICCR). The project team is moving
ahead to prepare clinical supplies for long-term toxicology and further clinical
trials. Management expects funding to continue from CICCR for this project.
Interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased by $39,912 or
115% as compared to the first quarter in fiscal 2000 due to the financing of
capital expenditures for production equipment in fiscal 2000. In addition,
interest expense includes imputed interest on both the share value guarantee
payable, resulting from the acquisition of Vet Labs in 1992, and the lawsuit
settlement payable, totaling $30,141.
Selling and promotion expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased by
$23,326 or 118% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 primarily due to
the retention of a public relations firm during third quarter of fiscal 2000.
There were no similar expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
Operating results for the first quarter ended April 30, 2000 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31,
2001. For further information, refer to the consolidated statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended January 31, 2000.
B LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Registrant in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 generated cash flow from
operations of $65,170 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000 cash flow
from operations of $74,459. This decrease of 12% is primarily attributable to a
significant decrease in
-10-
payables at Dextran during the first quarter of fiscal 2001, which resulted in a
decrease in non-cash operating working capital. The decrease in payables is a
result of Dextran paying year-end expenses and the final installments for
production equipment that was manufactured in fiscal 2000. There were no
significant changes in accounts receivable or inventory levels at either Dextran
or Vet Labs during the first quarter of 2001.
Management has budgeted approximately $750,000 for plant refurbishment and
capital equipment purchases during fiscal 2001. The majority of the $187,097
capital expenditures on plant and equipment during the first quarter of fiscal
2001 related to production and research and development equipment at Dextran.
There are no production interruptions planned for the next quarter due to this
refurbishment.
C LONG TERM OBJECTIVES
At the beginning of the year, two critical long-term objectives were identified.
1. Bring new products to market. During the first quarter, development work
has continued on the cellulose sulfate project and a raw material for a
human injectable product. Vet Labs is continuing development of new
veterinary products.
2. Upgrade and refurbish existing production facilities to increase capacity
and efficiency. Refurbishment of the Dextran plant is continuing and
planning for the next two phases is nearing completion.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS SAFE HARBOR
This Form 10-Q, including the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, contains various "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events,
including, but not limited to statements regarding management's expectations of
regulatory approval and the commencement of sales. In addition, statements
containing expressions such as "believes", "anticipates", "plans" or "expects"
used in this Form 10-Q, the Company's Annual Report, and the Company's periodic
reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q previously filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company
cautions that these and similar statements in this Form 10-Q, the Company's
Annual Report, and in previously filed periodic reports including reports filed
on Forms 10-K and 10-Q are further qualified by important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements. These factors include, without limitation, changing market
conditions, the progress of clinical trials, and the results obtained, the
establishment of new corporate alliances, the impact of competitive products and
pricing, and the timely development, FDA approval and market acceptance of the
Company's products, none of which can be assured.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q 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 normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.

EXCHANGE RATE SENSITIVITY
The table below provides information about the Company's financial
instruments that are sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange
rates. All financial instruments are held for other than trading
purposes. The Company's major exposure to exchange rate risk is that
the Canadian dollar rises dramatically in relation to the U.S. dollar
and that this significantly reduces the gross margin experienced at
Dextran Products. Management monitors the margin at Dextran to ensure
that an acceptable margin level is maintained. Management has the
ability, to some extent, to adjust sales prices to maintain an
acceptable margin level.
The table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average
interest rates by expected maturity dates.
