ALCIDE CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements of Alcide Corporation (the "Company") for the three and six month periods ended
November 30, 2001 and 2000 have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Certain information and disclosures normally included in notes to financial
statements have been condensed or omitted according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended May 31, 2001. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to conform to
current year presentation. The results of operations for the six month periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

On
February 1, 2001 the Company purchased the assets of Universal Marketing Services, Inc. (UMS). The assets acquired included inventory sold to UMS by the Company in
prior periods. The inventory purchased was recorded at its fair market value of $1,154,467, which amount was subsequently adjusted to $1,100,493 per physical audit. At the end of November, 2001,
$98,598 of this inventory remained in "finished products".

4. Goodwill and Other Intangibles

In July, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires

business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and broadens the criteria for recording intangible assets separate from goodwill.
Recorded goodwill and intangibles will be evaluated against this new criteria and may result in certain intangibles being subsumed into goodwill or, alternatively, amounts initially recorded as
goodwill may be separately identified and recognized apart from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires the use of a nonamortization approach to account for purchased goodwill and certain intangibles.
Under a nonamortization approach, goodwill and certain intangibles will not be amortized into results of operations, but instead will be reviewed for impairment and written down and charged to results
of operations only in the periods in which the recorded value of goodwill and certain intangibles is more than its fair value. The provisions of each statement which apply to goodwill and intangible
assets acquired prior to June 30, 2001 have been "early-adopted" by the Company on June 1, 2001. The result of this "early-adoption" is
that a portion of the existing goodwill and other intangibles has been allocated to maintenance of end-customer relationships. The goodwill and end-customer relationships have
indefinite lives and will be reviewed periodically for impairment.

5. Line of Credit Payable

In August, 2001 the Company renewed its $10,000,000 unrestricted line of credit with US Bank. The new expiration date is August 31, 2003.

Two
advances of $1,000,000 each have been taken on the line of credit, one in February, 2001 and another in June, 2001. Currently both advances are due in September, 2002. The
interest rates are approximately 4.3% for the first advance and 3.9% for the second. Interest is paid monthly.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

As of November 30, 2001 the Company had contracts for future startups of seven poultry operations and five red meat operations. It is estimated that 70
to 80% of the assets required for such installations have already been purchased and are classified on the balance sheet as construction in progress.

7. Taxes

The income tax provision for the six month period ended November 30, 2001 consists of:

Federal Income Taxes

$
391,344State Income Taxes


17,707$
409,051


8. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents of the Company include the
dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants except where their inclusion would be antidilutive. For the three and six month periods ended November 30, 2001, common stock
equivalents excluded because of their antidilutive effect were 96,790 and 94,790 shares, respectively. For the three and six month periods ended November 30, 2000, 34,290 and 54,590 shares were
excluded, respectively.

9. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" (effective for the Company on
June 1, 2003). This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset
retirement costs. The Company is in the process of evaluating the financial statement impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 143.

In
August, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (effective for the
Company on June 1, 2002). This Statement supersedes FASB Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of" and other related accounting guidance. The Company is in the process of evaluating the financial statement impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 144.

10. Orders for Future Delivery

At November 30, 2001 and 2000 the Company had orders for future delivery of $479,564 and $886,395, respectively. The $479,564 orders for future delivery
are scheduled for shipment during the period December, 2001 through January, 2002. Data for both years excludes expected sales of SANOVA because contracts with SANOVA customers do not require
placement of purchase orders for future delivery. SANOVA sales are based on product usage reported by the customers after the fact.

11. Segment Information

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 (SFAS 131) "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," during 1998. Following the provisions of SFAS 131, the Company is reporting segment information in the same format as reviewed by the Company's management (the "Management
Approach"), which is organized around differences in products and services. During fiscal 2001, management determined that due to the growth of the Company's SANOVA business, the Company now has two
reportable segments, Animal Health and Surface Disinfectants, and SANOVA Food Antimicrobial Products.

The
Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer similar products but to entirely different customers at substantially different selling price and cost of
goods sold structure.

The
accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Company's
Form 10-K. The Company evaluates performance

based on gross margin from the sale of each segment's products and does not allocate expenses beyond gross margin to the two segments.

PART I.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

Alcide Corporation (the "Company") is a Delaware Corporation organized in 1983 which has its executive offices and research laboratories at 8561 154th Avenue
N.E., Redmond, Washington 98052.

Alcide
is engaged in the research, development and commercialization of unique chemical compounds having intense microbiocidal activity. The Company holds substantial worldwide rights
to its discoveries through various patents, patent applications, trademarks and other intellectual property, technology, and know-how.

This
report includes forward-looking statements which involve risk and uncertainty including, without limitation, risk of dependence on patents and trademarks, third party suppliers,
market acceptance of and demand for the Company's products, distribution capabilities, development of technology and regulatory approval thereof. Sentences or phrases that use words such as
"believes," "anticipates," "hopes," "plans," "may," "can," "will," "expects," and others, are often used to flag such forward-looking statements, but their absence does not mean a statement is not
forward-looking. Such statements reflect management's current opinion and are designed to help readers understand management's thinking. By their very nature, however, such statements are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which
speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after
the date hereof, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Net sales of $5,731,980 for the quarter and $11,131,810 for the six month period ended November 30, 2001 were the highest for any quarter and six month
period in Alcide's history, and were 22% and 25% higher than for the respective periods last year. For more detail see segment information on page 10.

Sales
of SANOVA food antimicrobial to the poultry and red meat industries totaled $2,906,835 for the quarter ended November 30, 2001, an increase of $975,241 compared to the
second fiscal quarter last year, as this new Alcide business continued to expand. At the end of the quarter 32 poultry plants and 3 red meat plants were utilizing the SANOVA System to improve the
quality of their product. Two additional red meat plants and 2 additional poultry post-chill operations have been added since the end of the quarter, bringing the total to 39 operations as
of this date. In addition, the Company has contracts for future startups of 5 poultry operations and 3 red meat operations, for a total of 47 contracted SANOVA operations. SANOVA sales for the six
month period ended November 30, 2001, were $5,594,199, an increase of $1,925,223, 52% compared to the equivalent six month period last year.

The
Company's animal health and surface disinfectant sales for the quarter ended November 30, 2001 were $2,825,145, 2% higher than for the second quarter last year. Six month
sales of $5,537,611 were $267,379, or 5% higher than for the first half last year.

Cost
of goods sold was 52% of net sales for the quarter and 51% of net sales for the six month period ended November 30, 2001 as compared to 46% and 47% of net sales for the
equivalent periods a year ago. (See page 10, sales and gross margin by business segment). Cost of goods sold for the animal health and surface disinfectant segment increased from 36% of net sales
during the first half of last year to 43% during the same period in fiscal 2002. The increased cost of goods sold for the

11

---

segment was caused primarily by the sale of high valued inventory acquired as part of the UMS acquisition in February, 2001 and by transition to a new distributor and new product launch in France.

Cost
of goods sold as a percentage of sales for the SANOVA business segment decreased slightly from 61% of net sales for the first half of last year to 60% of net sales for the first
half of fiscal 2002.

Research
and development expenses for the quarter ended November 30, 2001 were $659,182 as compared to $457,934 for the same period last year. The first half research and
development expenses were $1,023,187, 29% higher than expenses of $794,531 for the first half last year. This increase is primarily due to filling staff positions that were vacant last year, coupled
with new product development
work for the animal health product line and process validation studies associated with expansion of the SANOVA business segment.

Selling,
general and administrative expense was $1,444,107 for the quarter ended November 30, 2001, a 25% increase from the $1,151,629 during the same period last year. Six
month expenses of $3,200,192 were 30% higher than first half expense last year. Major components of the increase for the half were a $296,000, or 23% increase in engineering, selling and
administrative expenses to support the 52% growth in SANOVA sales, coupled with a $301,500 increase in marketing expenses to solidify the animal health and surface disinfectant business segment and a
$154,000 increase in variable compensation.

Interest
income net was $2,463 for the quarter and $5,175 for the six month period ended November 30, 2001, as compared to $34,638 and $71,307 for the respective periods a year
ago. The decreases are due to lower investable cash resources this year compared to last and the incursion of interest expense, $25,104 for the quarter and $46,958 for the half year, to support asset
purchases for the growing SANOVA business. No interest expense was incurred during the first half of last fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and U.S. Treasury instruments (included in long term investments and other assets in fiscal year
2001) totaled $1,547,089 on November 30, 2001, an amount $1,008,783 lower than at the end of the previous fiscal year. During the first six months the Company took a $1,000,000 advance on its
$10,000,000 line of credit, bringing the total borrowed to $2,000,000. This additional borrowing, plus net cash flow of $1,640,049 provided by operating activities for the six month period ended
November 30, 2001, funded the investment of $3,343,552 for equipment to support expansion of the SANOVA business.
