5. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAX The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes". This statement requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes. At December 31, 1999 the Company had net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of approximately $3,402,000. No provision (benefit) for income taxes has been recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a result of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards. Taxable income for the period ended June 30, 2000 was offset by the utilization of such NOL's. The Company will continue to assess the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. 6 ALPHA PRO TECH, LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6. ACTIVITY OF BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company classifies its businesses into three fundamental segments: Apparel, consisting principally of disposable medical clothing such as coveralls, frocks, lab coats, hoods, bouffant caps, and shoe covers (including the Aqua Track and spunbond shoe covers); Mask and eye shields, consisting principally of medical , dental and industrial masks and eye shields; and Extended Care Unreal Lambskin(R), consisting principally of fleece and other related products which includes a line of pet beds. Segment data excludes charges allocated to head office and corporate sales/marketing departments. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based primarily on net sales and gross margin. The following table shows net sales for each segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:

7 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000, COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. ("Alpha" or the "Company") reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 of $342,000 as compared to net income of $280,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, representing an improvement of $62,000 or 22.1%. The net income increase of $62,000 is attributable primarily to an increase in gross profit of $14,000, due to higher gross profit margin, a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses of $22,000, a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $7,000, and a decrease in net interest expense of $19,000. The year to date net income increase of $203,000 is attributable primarily to an increase in gross profit of $171,000, a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $13,000, and a decrease in net interest expense of $72,000, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $53,000. Management expects record sales and net income in 2000. SALES Consolidated net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2000 decreased to $5,131,000 from $5,222,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, representing a decrease of $91,000 or 1.7%. Net sales for the Apparel Division for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were $3,352,000 as compared to $3,497,000 for the same period of 1999. The Apparel Division sales decrease of $145,000 or 4.1% was due to decreased sales to the Company's largest distributor. Sales to this distributor were weak in April 2000, however, the quarter finished with its strongest month ever. This distributor has reported record second quarter 2000 sales to its customers of the Company's products and has also reported sales increases of the Company's products for eight consecutive quarters. Management's expectation is that growth should continue, and as a result the Company's sales to this distributor should also remain strong. Mask and eye shield sales increased by $62,000 or 4.9% to $1,329,000 for the second quarter of 2000 from $1,267,000 in the second quarter of 1999. This increase is primarily the result of growth in dental mask sales, and to a lesser extent medical mask sales, partially offset by a decline in industrial mask sales. Medical mask sales for the month of June were the strongest in the past twelve months. Sales from the Company's Extended Care Unreal Lambskin(R) and other related products, which includes a line of pet beds, decreased slightly by $8,000 or 1.7% to $450,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $458,000 in the same period in 1999. The slight decrease in sales of $8,000 is primarily the result of decreased medical fleece sales partially offset by increased pet bed sales. In 2000, the Company implemented a pet products telemarketing campaign and feels that sales should strengthen in 2000 as a result. 8 Consolidated sales were $10,071,000 and $9,712,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 respectively, representing an increase of $359,000 or 3.7%. Consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were adversely affected by two factors. Firstly, in 2000, the Company's largest distributor implemented a corporate wide inventory reduction that has led to a reduction of inventory of the Company's products. This inventory reduction program appears to have leveled off, as inventory levels have stayed fairly constant for the past two months. Secondly, strong orders in the latter part of the second quarter have led to an increase in open orders as compared to Dec 31,1999. Without these two factors, consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2000 would have been up by 13.0% as opposed to 3.7%. Net sales for the Apparel Division for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $6,206,000 as compared to $6,200,000 for the same period of 1999, a small increase of $6,000. Even though the Company's sales for the Apparel Division are flat to the prior year, the Company's largest distributor has had sales increases to their end-users for eight consecutive quarters as well as a record June and a record year to date. Allowing for the two factors as stated above, net sales for the Apparel Division for the six months ended June 30, 2000 would have been up significantly as opposed to the small increase of $6,000. Mask and eye shield sales increased by $384,000 or 16.0% to $2,779,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 from $2,395,000 in the same period of 1999. The increase is primarily the result of an improvement in industrial mask sales and dental mask sales. Sales from the Company's Extended Care Unreal Lambskin(R) and other related products decreased by $31,000 or 2.9% to $1,086,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $1,117,000 in the same period in 1999. The decrease in sales is the result of decreases in medical bed pad sales, partially offset by increases in pet bed sales. Management believes that the Company is well positioned to continue to grow revenue in its current markets of Industrial Cleanroom, Medical, Dental and Pet Supply, as well as the new Food Service market. The Company's largest distributor, which supplies the industrial cleanroom market, accounts for a significant percent of Company's revenues, has had sales increases of the Company's products to their end-users for eight consecutive quarters as well as a record June and record year to date. The expectation is that growth should continue, and as a result the Company's sales to this distributor should also remain strong. The Medical market is down by $257,000 or 14.0% year to date but, with the recent addition of independent sales representatives and the anticipated release of a new product portfolio in third quarter, which should result in increased sales over the next 12 months. Medical mask sales for the month of June were the strongest month in the past year. The Dental market is up by approximately $135,000 or 20% year to date. The Company is in the process of initiating a telemarketing campaign to dentists and is working with dental distributors to increase the Company's share of the dental market. The Pet supply market in which the Company markets a line of pet beds is up $128,000 or 33.3% year to date. Since late last year, the Company has dedicated a sales representative to this market and sales should continue to be strong. 9 In the Food Service market, the Company has signed a Vendor Supply Agreement with McDonald's Corporation to market its line of proprietary Food Service Safety Products to the McDonald's system, which includes more than 25,000 restaurants in 119 countries worldwide. Recently, McDonald's has rewarded both the Company's marketing efforts and in-store performance by issuing an internal mail correspondence, highlighting the Alpha Pro Tech Safety Program to over 3,000 owner groups and corporate centers, representing over 15,000 stores. Additionally, Alpha has initiated a widespread telemarketing and sampling campaign. In addition, the Company has undertaken a strategy to participate in local and regional meetings throughout the US along with McDonald's Security, Human Resources, and Field Service directors. The Company expects Food Service sales to gain momentum and grow significantly over the next twelve months. COST OF GOODS SOLD Cost of goods sold decreased to $3,059,000 for the three months ended June 30,2000 from $3,164,000 for the same period in 1999. As a percentage of net sales for the second quarter, cost of goods sold decreased to 59.6% in 2000 from 60.6% in 1999. Gross profit margin increased to 40.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from 39.4% for the same period in 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to 1999, cost of goods sold increased to $5,947,000 from $5,759,000. As a percentage of net sales for the six months, cost of goods decreased to 59.1% from 59.3%. Gross profit margin increased to 40.9% from 40.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Management expects gross profit margin for fiscal 2000 to continue to be stronger than fiscal 1999, due to a continuing focus on improving manufacturing processes and efficiency. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $22,000 to $1,609,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from $1,631,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased slightly to 31.4% for second quarter 2000 from 31.2% for same quarter in 1999. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consists of decreased rent of $16,000 and decreased office, factory, insurance and general expenses of $199,000. This is partially offset by increased payroll related costs of $120,000; increased marketing and commissions of $24,000; increased travel expenses of $19,000; and increased public company expenses of $34,000, including investor relations, stock exchange listing fees, options/warrants issued for services, annual report and annual meeting costs, stock transfer costs, and costs associated with SEC reporting requirements. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by a $53,000 or 1.7%, to $3,159,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 from $3,106,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consists of increased payroll related costs of $245,000; increased public company expenses of $45,000, including investor relations, stock exchange listing fees, options/warrants issued for services, annual report and annual meeting costs, stock transfer costs, and costs associated with SEC reporting requirements; and increased marketing, commissions and travel expenses of $49,000. This is partially offset by decreased office, factory, insurance and general expenses of $262,000 and decreased rent of $24,000. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 31.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2000 from 32.0% in the same period of 1999. 10 DEPRECIATION & AMORTIZATION Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $7,000 to $101,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from $108,000 for the same period in 1999 and decreased by $13,000 to $203,000 from $216,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to 1999. The decrease is primarily attributable to assets in the mask division being fully depreciated and decreased depreciation on a shield die-cut machine partially offset by increased depreciation on automated shoecover machines. INCOME FROM OPERATIONS Income from operations increased by $43,000 or 13.5%, to $362,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to income from operations of $319,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
