Net sales of Hi-Tech generic pharmaceutical products, which includes some private label contract manufacturing, increased due to new product launches including Dorzolamide with Timolol ophthalmic solution, Dorzolamide ophthalmic solution, Fluticasone propionate nasal spray, Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Homatropine Methylbromide Syrup, Oflaxacin Otic solution, Ciclopirox topical solution, and Calcipotriene solution. These increases were partially offset by decreases in sales of cough and flu products. Sales of Dorzolamide with Timolol ophthalmic solution were approximately $5,400,000.

In connection with the launch of the Dorzolamide with Timolol ophthalmic solution and Dorzolamide ophthalmic solution, on November 7, 2008, the Company filed a motion with the Court seeking a preliminary injunction, a permanent injunction, and a declaratory judgment. If granted, FDA would be required to withdraw all the ANDAs (except for the Company's ANDA) and FDA would be prohibited from approving any other ANDAs until the 180-day period has expired. If the Company is successful in its suit, the Company estimates it will incur a liability of $1,200,000 to a partner in connection with the exclusive rights to sell the products, based on sales through October 31, 2008 and will pay royalties on future sales.

Sales for the Health Care Products division, which markets the Company's branded products, increased due to sales of the newly launched Zostrix® Neuropathy Cream and Nasal Ease ®.

In December 2007, Hi-Tech acquired the assets of Midlothian Laboratories, a company which markets and distributes generic products in the cough and cold and prescription vitamin markets.

Cost of Sales

The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales is due to sales of newly launched products and the acquisition of Midlothian Laboratories, which has higher gross margins than Hi-Tech's core generic business.

Expense (Income) Items

Increases in selling, general and administrative expenses are primarily due to the selling and administrative expenses of the recently acquired Midlothian division, increases in compensation expense and the amortization of intangibles relating to that acquisition. Additionally, the Company incurred legal costs relating to the launch of Dorzolamide with Timolol ophthalmic solution in the current quarter.

The increase in expenditures for research and development were driven by increased expenditures on an externally developed project.

Royalty and contract research income include royalties relating to Brometane, a cough and cold product which the Company divested in July 2008 and income received from outside parties for research performed by the Company.

Interest income decreased in fiscal 2009, because the Company had lower average cash and investment balances.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes amounting to 60.8% of income before income taxes for the three months ended October 31, 2008, compared to a benefit amounting to 15.0% of the loss before income taxes for the three months ended October 31, 2007. The difference in the effective tax rate is mainly due to small dollar changes period over period in permanent differences that have a larger percentage impact on the current period provision.

Net sales of Hi-Tech generic pharmaceutical products, which includes some private label contract manufacturing, increased due to new product launches including Dorzolamide with Timolol ophthalmic solution, Dorzolamide ophthalmic solution, Fluticasone propionate nasal spray, Hydrocodone Bitartrate and Homatropine Methylbromide Syrup, Oflaxacin Otic solution, Ciclopirox topical solution, and Calcipotriene solution.

If granted, FDA would be required to withdraw all the ANDAs (except for the Company's ANDA) and FDA would be prohibited from approving any other ANDAs until the 180-day period has expired. FDA and Apotex have respectively responded to the motion by opposing it. The Court has indicated that it will decide the motion without a hearing. If the Company is successful in its suit, the Company estimates it will incur a liability to a partner of $1,200,000 in connection with the exclusive rights to sell the products based on sales through October 31, 2008 and will pay royalties on future sales.

Sales for the Health Care Products division, which markets the Company's branded products, increased due to sales of the newly launched Zostrix® Neuropathy Cream and Nasal Ease®. These increases were partially offset by decreases in sales of Diabetic Tussin®.

In December 2007, Hi-Tech acquired the assets of Midlothian Laboratories, a company which markets and distributes generic products in the cough and cold and prescription vitamin markets. In April 2007, Hi-Tech divested Naprelan®. Sales of Naprelan® in the prior year represent inventory sold as part of the divestiture.

Cost of Sales

The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales is due to sales of newly launched products and the acquisition of Midlothian Laboratories, which has higher gross margins than Hi-Tech's core generic business. Additionally, the prior period contained sales of Naprelan ® at cost as part of an agreement to sell that product.

Increases in selling, general and administrative expenses are primarily due to the selling and administrative expenses of the recently acquired Midlothian division, increases in compensation expenses and the amortization relating to that acquisition. Additionally, the Company incurred legal costs relating to the launch of Dorzolamide with Timolol ophthalmic solution in the current period.

The increase in expenditures for research and development were driven by increased expenditures on an externally developed project.

Royalty and contract research income include royalties relating to Brometane, a cough and cold product which the Company divested in July 2008 and income received from outside parties for research performed by the Company.

Interest income decreased in fiscal 2009, because the Company had lower average cash and investment balances. Also, included in other (income) expense is the $3,500,000 gain on the sale of the related rights to Brometane, a cough and cold product which the Company divested in July 2008.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes amounting to 43.5% of income before income taxes for the six months ended October 31, 2008, compared to a benefit amounting to 32.3% of loss before income taxes for the six months ended October 31, 2007. The difference in the effective tax rate is mainly due to small dollar changes period over period in permanent differences that have a larger percentage impact on the current period provision.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's operations are historically financed principally by cash flow from operations. At October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008, working capital was approximately $51,554,000 and $45,875,000, respectively, an increase of $5,679,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2008.

Cash used in operating activities was approximately $2,028,000 which is primarily due to the increase in accounts receivable and inventory. A significant portion of the increase in inventory is due to increases in components, raw materials and finished product for the launch of Dorzolamide with Timolol, which the Company launched in October 2008. At October 31, 2008 the Company had approximately $1,500,000 in inventory components, raw materials and finished product, for the launch of Dorzolamide with Timolol. Additionally, the Company increased inventory of seasonal products ahead of the cough and flu season. Cash flows provided by investing activities were $3,877,000 and were principally the result of sales of intangible assets and marketable securities offset, in part, by purchases of fixed assets.

The Company believes that its financial resources consisting of current working capital and anticipated future operating revenue will be sufficient to enable it to meet its working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months.

The Company is currently negotiating a new credit facility which would increase liquidity to the Company, there can be no assurance that a new credit facility will be obtained.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, "Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset in a Market That Is Not Active." The FSP was effective upon issuance, including periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The FSP clarified the application of SFAS 157 in an inactive market and provided an illustrative example to demonstrate how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is inactive. The adoption of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position and the results of operations.

In December 2007, the EITF issued EITF Issue No. 07-1 ("EITF 07-1"), Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements. EITF 07-1 affects entities that participate in collaborative arrangements for the development and commercialization of intellectual property. The EITF affirmed the tentative conclusions reached on
(1) what constitutes a collaborative arrangement, (2) how the parties should present costs and revenues in their respective income statements, (3) how the parties should present cost-sharing payments, profit-sharing payments, or both in their respective income statements, and (4) disclosure in the annual financial statements of the partners. EITF 07-1 should be applied as a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all periods presented for collaborative arrangements existing as of the date of adoption. EITF 07-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The adoption of EITF 07-1 did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements at October 31, 2008.

In June 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force on Issue No. 07-3, Accounting for Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use in Future Research and Development Activities ("Issue 07-3"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007 and is applied prospectively for new contracts entered into on or after the effective date. Issue 07-3 addresses nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services for use in future research and development activities. Issue 07-3 will require that these payments that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities be deferred and capitalized and recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed. If an entity does not expect the goods to be delivered or the services to be rendered the capitalized advance payments should be expensed. The adoption of Issue 07-03 did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements at October 31, 2008.

SEASONALITY

Historically, the months of September through March account for a greater portion of the Company's sales than the other months of the fiscal year. However, this sales pattern can vary significantly depending on the cough, cold and flu season. Accordingly, period-to-period comparisons within the same fiscal year are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied on as indicative of future results.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses for the reporting period covered thereby. As a

result, these estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We base our estimates and judgments on our historical experience, the terms of existing contracts, our observance of trends in the industry, information that we obtain from our customers and outside sources, and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments which impact our reported operating results and the carrying values of assets and liabilities. These assumptions include but are not limited to the percentage of new products which may have chargebacks and the percentage of items which will be subject to price decreases. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Revenue recognition and accounts receivable, adjustments for returns and price adjustments, allowance for doubtful accounts and carrying value of inventory represent significant estimates made by management.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable: Revenue is recognized for product sales upon shipment and when risk is passed to the customer and when estimates of discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns, chargebacks, and other potential adjustments are reasonably determinable, collection is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations. These estimates are presented in the financial statements as reductions to net revenues and accounts receivable. Estimated sales returns, allowances and discounts are provided for in determining net sales. Contract research income is recognized as work is completed and billable costs are incurred. In certain cases, contract research income is based on attainment of designated milestones.

Adjustments for Returns and Price Adjustments: Our product revenues are typically subject to agreements with customers allowing chargebacks, rebates, rights of return, pricing adjustments and other allowances. Based on our agreements and contracts with our customers, we calculate adjustments for these items when we recognize revenue and we book the adjustments against accounts receivable and revenue. Chargebacks, primarily from wholesalers, are the most significant of these items. Chargebacks result from arrangements we have with retail customers establishing prices for products for which the end user independently selects a wholesaler from which to purchase. A chargeback represents the difference between our invoice price to the wholesaler, which is typically stated at wholesale acquisition cost, and the end customer's contract price, which is lower. We credit the wholesaler for purchases by end customers at the lower price. Therefore, we record these chargebacks at the time we recognize revenue in connection with our sales to wholesalers.

The reserve for chargebacks is computed by analyzing the number of units sold for the past twenty-four months and the number of units sold through to retailers. The difference represents the inventory which could potentially have chargebacks due to wholesalers. This inventory is multiplied by the historical percentage of units that are charged back and by the price adjustment per unit to arrive at the chargeback accrual. This calculation is performed by product by customer. The Company currently obtains wholesaler inventory data for the wholesalers which represent approximately 95% of our chargeback activity. This data is used to verify the information calculated in the chargeback accrual.

The calculated amount of chargebacks could be affected by other factors such as:

• A change in retail customer mix

• A change in negotiated terms with retailers

• Product sales mix at the wholesaler

• Retail inventory levels

• Changes in Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC)

The Company continually monitors the chargeback activity and adjusts the provisions for chargebacks when we believe that the actual chargebacks will differ from our original provisions.

Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return policy that allows our customers to return product within a specified period. The Company's estimate for returns is based upon its historical experience with actual returns. While such experience has allowed for reasonable estimation in the past, history may not always be an accurate indicator of future returns. The Company continually monitors its estimates for returns and makes adjustments when it believes that actual product returns may differ from the established accruals.

Included in the adjustment for sales allowances and returns is a reserve for credits taken by our customers for rebates, return authorizations and other.

Sales discounts are granted for prompt payment. The reserve for sales discounts is based on invoices outstanding and assumes that 100% of available discounts will be taken.

Price adjustments, including shelf stock adjustments, are credits issued from time to time to reflect decreases in the selling prices of our products which our customer has remaining in its inventory at the time of the price reduction. Decreases in our selling prices are discretionary decisions made by us to reflect market conditions. Amounts recorded for estimated price adjustments are based upon specified terms with direct customers, estimated launch dates of competing products, estimated declines in market price and inventory held by the customer. The Company analyzes this on a case by case basis and makes adjustments to reserves as necessary.

The Company adequately reserves for chargebacks, discounts, allowances and returns in the period in which the sales take place. No material amounts included in the provision for chargebacks and the provision for sales discounts recorded in the current period relate to sales made in the prior periods. The current provision for sales allowances and returns includes reserves for items sold in the current period, while the ending balance includes reserves for items sold in the current and prior periods. The Company has substantially and consistently used the same estimating methods. We have refined the methods as new data became available. There have been no material differences between the estimates applied and actual results.

The Company determines amounts that are material to the financial statements in consideration of all relevant circumstances including quantitative and qualitative factors. Among the items considered is the impact on individual financial statement classification, operating income and footnote disclosures and the degree of precision that is attainable in estimating judgmental items.

The following table presents the roll forward of each significant estimate as of October 31, 2008 and October 31, 2007 and for the six months then ended, respectively.
