5. EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS

Options are generally granted under the employee and director stock option plan for five-year periods and become exercisable in equal annual installments during that period. Certain non-qualified options are granted for ten-year periods. A summary of stock option activity during the six months ended November 30, 2015 follows:

During the three and six month periods ended November 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded $1,248,000 and $1,053,000 and $2,545,000 and $1,959,000 of compensation expense related to its share-based awards.

The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015, estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was $13.11 and $11.88 respectively, per option. The fair value of stock options granted was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions.

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase plan that provides for employee stock purchases at a 5% discount to market price. The discount is recorded in administrative expense as of the date of purchase.

6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new standard on revenue recognition. The new standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard is designed to create greater comparability for financial statement users across industries and jurisdictions and also requires enhanced disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

7. BUSINESS AND PRODUCT LINE ACQUISITIONS

The Consolidated Statements of Income reflect the results of operations for business acquisitions since the respective dates of purchase. All are accounted for using the acquisition method. Goodwill recognized in the acquisitions discussed below relates primarily to enhancing the Company’s strategic platform for the expansion of available product offerings.

On July 1, 2013, the Company acquired the assets of SyrVet Inc., a veterinary business based in Waukee, Iowa. SyrVet offered a product line similar to Neogen’s Ideal Instruments line of veterinary instruments with a strong presence in Mexico and Latin America. Consideration for the purchase was $10,012,000 in cash and up to $1,500,000 of a contingent consideration liability, due at the end of the first year, based on an excess net sales formula. The Company estimated the contingent consideration liability to be $930,000, based on forecasted sales. The final purchase price allocation, based upon the fair value of these assets determined using the income approach, included accounts receivable of $747,000, net inventory of $2,195,000, property and equipment of $556,000, current liabilities of $226,000, contingent consideration liabilities of $930,000, non-amortizable trademarks of $790,000, intangible assets of $4,810,000 (with an estimated life of 15 years) and the remainder to goodwill (deductible for tax purposes). These values are Level 3 fair value measurements. This business has been relocated to Lexington, Kentucky and integrated with the Company’s current operations there, reporting within the Animal Safety segment. In August 2014, the Company paid $689,000 to the former owner for contingent consideration based upon the level of achievement of sales targets; the remaining $241,000 of the accrual was reversed to other income.

was $3,525,000 in cash and up to $300,000 of contingent consideration.

8. LONG TERM DEBT

The Company has a financing agreement with a bank providing for an unsecured revolving line of credit of $12,000,000, which matures on September 1, 2017. There were no advances against this line of credit during fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 and no balance outstanding at November 30, 2015. Interest is at LIBOR plus 100 basis points (rate under the terms of the agreement was 1.23% at November 30, 2015). Financial covenants include maintaining specified levels of tangible net worth, debt service coverage, and funded debt to EBITDA, each of which the Company was in compliance with at November 30, 2015.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The information in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains both historical financial information and forward-looking statements. Neogen does not provide forecasts of future performance. While management is optimistic about the Company’s long-term prospects, historical financial information may not be indicative of future financial performance.

Safe Harbor and Forward-Looking Statements

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, are made throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “seeks,” “estimates,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors, including competition, recruitment and dependence on key employees, impact of weather on agriculture and food production, identification and integration of acquisitions, research and development risks, patent and trade secret protection, government regulation and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company’s reports on file at the Securities and Exchange Commission, that could cause Neogen Corporation’s results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including those detailed in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

In addition, any forward-looking statements represent management’s views only as of the day this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was first filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and should not be relied upon as representing management’s views as of any subsequent date. While management may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, it specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if its views change.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based on the consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires that management make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the estimates, including those related to receivable allowances, inventories, accruals, goodwill and other intangible assets. These estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There were no significant changes to our contractual obligations or contingent liabilities and commitments disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report or Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015.

There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2015.

Executive Overview

Neogen Corporation revenues for the quarter ended November 30, 2015 were $79.6 million, an increase of $11.1 million, or 16.3%, compared to revenues of $68.5 million in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year. For the year-to-date period ended November 30, 2015, revenues were $154.5 million, an increase of $18.4 million, or 13.5%, compared to the same period in the prior year. Net income attributable to Neogen for the second quarter increased 16.2% to $9.1 million, or $0.24 per fully diluted share, compared to $7.8 million, or $0.21 per fully diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. For the year-to-date period, net income was $18.4 million, or $0.49 per fully diluted share, an increase of 10.2% compared to fiscal 2015 year-to-date net income of $16.7 million, or $0.45 per fully diluted share.

Food Safety revenues increased 13.0% for the second quarter, and Animal Safety revenues increased 19.3%, each compared to the same period in the prior year. For the year-to-date period, Food Safety revenues increased 12.2% and Animal Safety revenues increased 14.7%. In the current fiscal year, the Company benefitted from sales resulting from the Lab M, BioLumix and, to a lesser extent, Sterling Test House acquisitions. Overall organic sales growth was 12.8% in the second quarter and 10.5% for the year-to-date period. For the second quarter, organic sales increased 6.1% in the Food Safety division and 19.0% in the Animal Safety division. For the six month period, organic sales increased 6.5% in the Food Safety division and 14.1% in the Animal Safety division.

The strength of the U.S. dollar and difficult prior year comparisons at Neogen Europe continued to have a negative impact on comparative revenues for the Company’s international operations for both the second quarter and six month periods. The dollar was higher in the current year to date against all currencies in which the Company conducts business, compared to the same period in the prior year. Neogen Europe sales were down 10.3% in the second quarter, 5.9% in local currency, due to non-recurring genomics projects and lower mycotoxin revenues resulting from prior year outbreaks which did not recur; for the year to date, revenues were down 11.2% (5.2% in local currency) due to non-recurring genomics projects, lower mycotoxin revenues, and equipment placements from the prior year, which did not repeat in the current year.

Despite the difficult comparative currency situation, Neogen Latinoamerica, based in Mexico City, increased revenues 27.8% (58.5% in local currency) in the second quarter due to market share increases across most product lines and, to a lesser extent, the transfer of some customers located in Central America. These customers, previously served by sales and technical service personnel in Lansing, Michigan, were transferred to Neogen Latinoamerica in order to be better served by local sales staff. On a year-to-date basis, revenues increased 27.0% in U.S. dollars and 56.5% in local currency. Neogen do Brasil sales decreased 12.0% in the second quarter, when translated from the real to the U.S. dollar, but increased 38.4% in local currency in a difficult economic environment, led by increases in sales of dehydrated culture media, dairy antibiotic test kits and Soleris equipment. For the six month period, sales increased 1.1% in U.S. dollars and 52.4% in local currency, led by the previously mentioned product lines and an increase in sales of biosecurity products in the first quarter. Neogen China had a significant revenue increase for both the quarter and year-to-date periods, albeit off a small prior year base, on market share gains after the December 2014 acquisition of a former distributor in China.

Expressed as a percentage of total sales, international sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 were 36.0%, compared to 40.4% in the same period of the prior year. For the six month period, international sales were 34.4% of total sales, compared to 38.6% in the prior year. This decline as a percentage of sales was due in part to the strength of the U.S. dollar, which reduced comparative revenues in the local currency of our international locations when converted to dollars. Revenues were negatively impacted by currency translations of $2.3 million in the second quarter and $4.5 million for the six month period. Excluding this decrease, international sales as a percentage of total sales would have been 38.9% for the second quarter and 37.3% for the year-to-date period.

Service revenue was $10.9 million in the second quarter, an increase of $2.3 million, or 26.2%, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. On a year-to-date basis, service revenue increased 15.1% from $18.0 million in the prior year to $20.7 million. For both the quarter and year-to-date periods, the increase is due primarily to increases at GeneSeek, the Company’s commercial agrigenomics laboratory located in Lincoln, Nebraska. Sales recorded at GeneSeek increased 34.6% in the second quarter and 22.9% for the six month period, both compared to the same periods in the prior year, due to incremental business from a large poultry producer and increased penetration in services to the porcine market.

Consolidated gross margins were 48.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 50.0% in the same period in the prior fiscal year. Year-to-date gross margins were 49.2% compared to 50.2% in the prior year. For the second quarter of the current fiscal year, Food Safety gross margins declined 450 basis points, the result of mix changes on existing product lines and lower margin acquired Lab M products, while Animal Safety gross margins improved 80 basis points, due to favorable product mix. For the year-to-date period, Food Safety gross margins were 220 basis points lower than the same period a year ago and Animal Safety gross margins improved by 40 basis points. Changes in product mix within each segment and the increase in Animal Safety sales as a percentage of total sales also contributed to the comparative variances.

Table of Contents

Overall operating expenses increased 10.8% for the second quarter and 10.9% for the six months, both compared to the same periods in the prior year. Sales and marketing expense increased 11.5% in the second quarter and 11.3% on a year-to-date basis. Increases in personnel related expenses such as salaries, benefits and travel, reflecting increased headcount, represent the majority of the increase. Other increases were shipping expense and higher advertising and promotion costs. General and administrative expense rose by 11.4% in the second quarter and was up 11.9% for the year-to-date period. The increase in both periods was due to higher stock-based compensation, the result of increased value per share from option grants, salary expenses due to increased headcount, and increased depreciation and license expenses, primarily related to the Company’s information technology infrastructure. Research and development expense increased 5.8% in the second quarter and 6.4% on a year-to-date basis. The increases in both periods reflect higher levels of development activity and increases in personnel related expenses.

Operating income was 18.4% of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 18.8% in the same quarter of the prior year. For the six month period ended November 30, 2015, operating income was 19.1% of sales compared to 19.4% in the prior year.

Other expense was $420,000 in the second quarter compared to $471,000 in the same period in the prior year. Components of other income/expense in the fiscal 2016 second quarter included $562,000 of expense related to currency translations. Partially offsetting this was $74,000 of royalty income and $51,000 of interest income. During the second quarter of fiscal 2015, other expense of $454,000 was recorded to reflect additional contingent consideration related to the Prima Tech acquisition. The total amount from the second quarter of fiscal 2015 also includes expense from currency translations of $164,000, royalty income of $85,000 and interest income of $47,000.

Year to date, other expense was $876,000; expense due to currency translations for the six month period was $1,167,000, offset by $109,000 of royalty income and $118,000 of interest income. For the year to date in the prior year, other expense of $202,000 reflects the $454,000 Prima Tech charge recorded during the second quarter and expense from currency translations of $220,000, offset by a $241,000 over accrual for contingent consideration related to the SyrVet acquisition recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, royalty income of $85,000 and interest income of $92,000.

The provision for income taxes was 35.6% of income before tax, compared to 37.0% recorded in the prior year second quarter. The prior year second quarter included an adjustment to deferred tax assets related to Neogen do Brasil. On a year-to-date basis, the provision was 35.6% compared to 36.0% in the prior year.

Revenues

Three and six months ended November 30, 2015 and 2014:

Revenues for the Company’s Food Safety segment were $37.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, an increase of 13.0% compared to the same period in the prior year. On a year-to-date basis, Food Safety revenues were $71.7 million, 12.2% higher than the comparable period of the prior year. Sales from the BioLumix (October 1, 2014) and Lab M (August 26, 2015) acquisitions contributed $2.3 million and $3.6 million to the growth for the respective quarter and year-to-date periods. Natural Toxins, Allergens and Drug Residues increased 2.9% in the second quarter and rose 4.5% on a year-to-date basis, each compared to the same periods of the prior year. Increases in this category were driven by continued strong growth of allergen test kits, particularly for the detection of gluten, soy, and peanut, as demand for this product line continues to increase due to higher consumer awareness and increased recalls due to allergenic contamination. Overall allergen sales increased 21.1% for the quarter and 17.9% on a year-to-date basis. Natural toxin sales decreased 5.3% for the second quarter of fiscal 2016, the result of relatively clean crops in both North America and Europe; in the same period in the prior year, there were DON outbreaks in Eastern Europe and Canada which did not recur. On a year-to-date basis, natural toxin revenues increased 2.6%, primarily the result of higher first quarter DON revenues due to isolated outbreaks in the Midwestern U.S. and Europe. Drug residue test kit revenues were flat compared to last year’s second quarter and were down 6.4% on a year-to-date basis, primarily due to currency translation and delays in the launch of a new product required by legislation in Eastern Europe.

Bacterial and General Sanitation revenues rose 21.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 and increased 26.0% for the year-to-date period, each compared to the same period a year ago. Growth in the Soleris and BioLumix product lines, which increased 28.4% overall for the quarter (5.5% on an organic basis) and 60.1% for the year to date (11.8% organic) contributed significantly to the increase in this category, with growth in both equipment and disposable vials. The AccuPoint sanitation monitoring product line rose 24.6% in the second quarter and increased 18.3% for the year-to-date period, due to the successful introduction of an improved, next generation product line. Additionally, pathogen kit sales increased 11.2% for the quarter and rose 4.4% for the year-to-date period, due primarily to increases in sales of listeria test kits to the commercial lab market.

Dehydrated Culture Media and Other sales increased 23.7% for the quarter and 15.4% for the year-to-date period ended November 30, 2015, each as compared to the same period in the prior year. The Lab M acquisition, which closed on August 26, 2015, added $1.8 million in revenue in the second quarter. Other increases in this category for both the three and six month periods were sales of Animal Safety products to customers in Central America which were transferred to the Company’s Neogen Latinoamerica subsidiary in order to better serve them, and increases in Acumedia sales to the traditional media market. Genomics revenues in Europe, Brazil, China and Mexico, which are recorded as Food Safety revenues in these countries, were 7.7% lower than the prior year for the three month period, and 19.5% lower for the six month period, due in large part to revenues in Europe in each quarter in the prior year which did not recur.

Animal Safety segment revenues were $42.4 million for the quarter ended November 30, 2015, a 19.3% increase, and year-to-date revenues were $82.8 million, a 14.7% increase, each compared to the same period in the prior year. The growth was led by strong increases in the Animal Care and Other product line, up 39.8% in the quarter and 41.2% for the year to date. The increase in the three and six month periods was primarily from a recently executed distribution agreement with a large manufacturer and supplier of dairy equipment and strength in the Company’s line of wound care products. In addition, during the second quarter of fiscal 2016, revenues for the Company’s veterinary antibiotic line increased 55.6%, due to focused marketing efforts and a major competitor exiting the business. For the year-to-date period, small animal supplements were up 21.6%, due to strong sales of the Company’s line of thyroid replacement therapy for companion animals resulting from a supply disruption in the market in the first quarter.

Life Sciences sales decreased 13.3% for the quarter, and 20.6% on a year-to-date basis, due to delayed implementation of new testing requirements in Brazil for commercial drivers until spring of 2016, which has resulted in lower sales of the company’s forensic kit sales to commercial labs in these markets. The prior year comparative periods included sales of those forensic kits, which were made prior to the delay in effective date. Revenues of Veterinary Instruments and Disposables rose 1.7% for the quarter and 4.8% for the year to date; increase in syringes used to deliver medications and animal marking products were the primary contributors to this growth. Lower sales of detectable needles and hoof and leg care products in the second quarter partially offset the growth in this product category.

Rodenticides, Insecticides and Disinfectants revenues increased 20.2% for the quarter and 10.7% on a year-to-date basis, primarily due to an increase in rodenticide revenues of 69.4% for the quarter and 54.0% for the six months. The increase in rodenticides for both periods resulted from a contract manufacturing relationship with a large marketer of residential rodenticides, increases in retail market share, and continuing revenues relating to a vole outbreak in the northwestern U.S. Insecticide revenues recovered from a weak first quarter to record revenue increases of 24.8% in the second quarter, although for the year to date, they were down 10.1%. Partially offsetting these increases were lower revenues of cleaners and disinfectants, down 31.1% in the second quarter and down 17.7% for the six months, primarily due to the lack of availability of a key technical raw material.

DNA Testing Services revenues increased 36.1% in the second quarter and 23.6% for the year-to-date period, each compared to the same period in the prior year. For each comparative period, incremental business with a large poultry producer led the growth. Additionally, in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, revenues increased due to market penetration in the porcine market. For the comparative year-to-date period, revenues from a number of proprietary service offerings has helped the Company to increase sales with existing customers and gain market share.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

The overall cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities position of the Company was $123.0 million at November 30, 2015, compared to $114.2 million at May 31, 2015. Approximately $20.9 million was generated from operations during the first six months of fiscal 2016. Net cash proceeds of $6.6 million were realized from the exercise of stock options and issuance of shares under the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan during the first six months of fiscal 2016. The Company spent $7.8 million for property, equipment and other non-current assets and $13.6 million for its Lab M and Sterling Test House acquisitions in the first half of fiscal 2016.

Accounts receivable balances were $57.6 million at November 30, 2015, a decline of $1.6 million, or 2.7%, compared to $59.2 million at May 31, 2015. Average days’ sales outstanding improved from 63 at May 31, 2015 to 62 at November 30, 2015. Inventory levels rose by $9.9 million, or 19.2%, compared to May 31, 2015. The increase is due primarily to the timing of receipts of international orders, planned increases in stocking levels of identified key products to ensure availability, and inventories acquired as a result of business acquisitions.

Inflation and changing prices are not expected to have a material effect on operations, as management believes it will continue to be successful in offsetting increased input costs with price increases and/or cost efficiencies.

Management believes that the Company’s existing cash and marketable securities balances at November 30, 2015, along with available borrowings under its credit facility and cash expected to be generated from future operations, will be sufficient to fund activities for the foreseeable future. However, existing cash and borrowing capacity may not be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements to commercialize products currently under development or its plans to acquire other organizations, technologies or products that fit within the Company’s mission statement. Accordingly, the Company may choose to issue equity securities or enter into other financing arrangements for a portion of its future financing needs.

PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Company has interest rate and foreign exchange rate risk exposure. It has no long-term fixed rate investments or borrowings. Primary interest rate risk is due to potential fluctuations in interest rates for variable rate borrowings; currently, there are no short-term borrowings outstanding and there were none during the quarter.

Foreign exchange risk exposure arises because the Company markets and sells its products throughout the world. The Company also could be affected by weak economic conditions in foreign markets that could reduce demand for its products. Additionally, revenues in certain foreign countries as well as certain expenses related to those revenues are transacted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company’s operating results are primarily exposed to changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar, the British pound sterling, the euro, the Mexican peso, the Brazilian real, and the Chinese yuan. When the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the dollar value of revenues denominated in foreign currencies increases. When the U.S. dollar strengthens, the opposite situation occurs. Additionally, previously recognized revenues in the course of collection can be affected positively or negatively by changes in exchange rates. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to help manage the economic impact of fluctuations in certain currency exchange rates. These contracts are adjusted to fair value through earnings.

Neogen has assets, liabilities and operations outside of the United States, located in Scotland, Brazil, Mexico, China, India, and Canada where the functional currency is the British pound sterling, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, and Canadian dollar respectively, and also transacts business throughout Europe in the euro. The Company’s investments in foreign subsidiaries are considered to be long-term.
