|   | In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position
as of September 30, 2008 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in the Company's financial statements included in its Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

|   | The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

|   | At September 30, 2008, the Company had a stock-based compensation plan for its employees and Directors, which is more fully described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2007.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
|  
|   | The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123R, which requires that the fair value of all share-based payments to

|   | In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active (FSP 157-3), which clarified the application of FAS 157 and demonstrated how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is inactive. FSP 157-3 was effective upon issuance. The implementation of this standard did not have an impact on the Companys financial position.

|   | Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has not elected to use the fair value option allowed by SFAS 159. The adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

|   | In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 (revised), Business Combinations (SFAS 141 (R)). The standard changes the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquirer shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer's income tax valuation allowance. SFAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect SFAS 141(R) to have a significant impact on the Companys financial position, and will evaluate the impact in the event of an acquisition.
|  
|   | In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160). The standard changes the accounting for noncontrolling (minority) interests in consolidated financial statements including the requirements to classify noncontrolling interests as a component of consolidated stockholders' equity, and the elimination of "minority interest" accounting in results of operations with earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests reported as part of consolidated earnings. Additionally, SFAS 160 revises the accounting for both increases and decreases in a parent's controlling ownership interest. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on the Companys financial position.

Expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value.

The Valuation Hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument's categorization within the Valuation Hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the Valuation Hierarchy and the distribution of the Company's financial assets within it are as follows:

- Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
- Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
- Level 3  inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The following available-for-sale securities are re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis and are valued using level 1 inputs and the market approach as defined by SFAS 157:

|   | The Company had a line of credit agreement with JP Morgan Chase Bank for borrowings of up to $2,000,000 at an interest rate of 1.0% below the Prime Rate, which expired June 30, 2008. The Company decided that the cost of maintaining the line of credit was no longer justified, since the Company had no foreseeable need for the line. For that reason the Company has chosen not to renew it.

|    | On December 11, 2007 the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of its Eastern Chemical Corporation (Eastern) subsidiary. The assets of Eastern were sold for $266,759, which resulted in a gain during 2007 of $84,361 (net of taxes of $45,396). As a result of the sale, Eastern is classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.                                                                                                             
|   
|    | The table below sets forth the results of operations of Eastern for the periods indicated. A portion of the Companys overhead was previously allocated to Eastern in determining segment information in previous financial statements.

|    | The Company sponsors a non-contributory defined benefit plan (Plan) for its employees and adopted FAS 158 effective December 31, 2006. A measurement period from October 1, 2006 to October 1, 2007 has been used for the year ended December 31, 2007. Due to curtailment of the Plan at December 31, 2007, the Company reported the effect of the curtailment through December 31, 2007. The following table sets forth the components of the projected net periodic benefit costs for the year ending December 31, 2008 and the actual net periodic benefit cost for the year ended December 31, 2007.

|    | The Company made cash contributions totaling $77,272 and $200,000 to the Plan during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Company recorded income of $33,426 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and expense of $142,027 for net periodic benefit costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

|   
|    | As of December 31, 2007 the Company froze future benefit accruals to the Plan while it investigated the advisability of replacing the Plan with a defined contribution plan, to be coordinated with, and be part of, the Companys 401(k) plan. On February 19, 2008, the Company decided to terminate the Plan, subject to regulatory approval, and has begun taking the steps necessary to do so. The Company expects to obtain regulatory approval in 2009.
|   
|    | Upon termination of the Plan, non-vested benefits will become fully vested. Any resulting gain will first be offset against any existing net loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
|   
|    | Under FASB Statement No. 88, Employers Accounting for Settlements and Contributions of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits, if the net effect of a termination is a gain, the gain is to be recognized when the termination occurs, which would be the date the employees are terminated or the date the Plan is terminated.                                                                                                        
|   
|    | The Company has accrued $150,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 for the proposed new defined contribution plan.

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

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements made in this Form 10-Q which are not purely historical are forward-looking statements with respect to the goals, plans, objectives, intentions, expectations, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business of the Company. Forward-



|Page 13 of 21

---

looking statements may be identified by the use of such words as "believes," "may," "will," "should," "intends," "plans," "estimates," or "anticipates" or other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond our control) could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. In addition to those specific risks and uncertainties set forth in the Company's reports currently on file with the SEC, some other factors that may affect the future results of operations of the Company are: the development of products that may be superior to those of the Company; changes in the quality or composition of the Company's products; lack of market acceptance of the Company's products; the Company's ability to develop new products; general economic or industry conditions; intellectual property rights; changes in interest rates; new legislation or regulatory requirements; conditions of the securities markets; the Company's ability to raise capital; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; financial or political instability; acts of war or terrorism; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors that may affect the Company's operations, products, services and prices.

Accordingly, results actually achieved may differ materially from those anticipated as a result of such forward-looking statements, and those statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

OVERVIEW

The Company is a Delaware corporation that conducts research, product development, manufacturing and marketing of cosmetic ingredients, personal and health care products, pharmaceuticals, and specialty industrial products. All of the products that the Company manufactures, with the exception of its Renacidin Irrigation, are produced at its facility in Hauppauge, New York, and are marketed through marketing partners, distributors, wholesalers, direct advertising, mailings, and trade exhibitions. Its most important personal care product line is its LUBRAJEL®line of water-based moisturizing and lubricating gels. It also sells two pharmaceutical products for urological uses. Those products are sold primarily through the major drug wholesalers, which in turn sell the products to pharmacies, physicians, hospitals, nursing homes and other long-term care facilities, and to government agencies, primarily the Veteran's Administration.

The Companys pharmaceutical products are distributed primarily in the United States. Its personal care products are marketed worldwide primarily by its marketing partners, the largest of which is International Specialty Products Inc. ("ISP"). Approximately one-half of the Company's personal care products are sold to foreign customers, either directly or through its marketing partners.

While the Company does have competition in the marketplace for some of its products, many of its products are either unique in their field or have some unique characteristics, and therefore are not in direct competition with the products of other pharmaceutical, specialty chemical, or health care companies. Many of the Companys products are manufactured using patented or proprietary processes. The Companys research and development department is actively working on the development of new products to expand the Company's line of personal care and performance products.

The Company has been issued many patents and trademarks and intends, whenever possible, to make efforts to obtain patents in connection with its product development program.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As disclosed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 the discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition and results of operations are based on consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of those financial statements required the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the carrying value of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions can be subjective and complex, and consequently actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. The Companys most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, concentration of credit risk, inventory, pension costs, patents, and income taxes. Since December 31, 2007, there have been no significant changes to the assumptions and estimates related to those critical accounting policies.

The following discussion and analysis covers material changes in the financial condition of the Company since the year ended December 31, 2007, and a comparison of the results of operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation" included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.



|RESULTS OF OPERATIONSRevenue
|----------------------------

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008, revenue increased $92,407 (1.0%) as compared with the comparable period in 2007 while sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 increased $850,875 (32.1%) as compared with the three-month period ended September 30, 2007. The changes in revenue for both the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 were principally attributable to changes in sales volumes of the following product lines:

|(a) | Personal care products: For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Companys sales of personal care products decreased by $13,009 (0.2%) when compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2007. This slight decrease is due to ordering patterns of the Companys distributors.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|   
|    | For the three months ended September 30, 2008 the Companys sales of personal care products increased by $610,248 (35.3%) when compared with the three months ended September 30, 2007. This increase was due primarily to an increase in sales to one of the Companys major distributors, which the Company believes was the result of its ordering and stocking patterns rather than any real increase in sales to its customers. This increase was partially offset by a decline in sales to our Korean distributor due to economic conditions in that country. Sales to our other distributors reflect both increases and decreases due to buying patterns.
|   
|(b) | Pharmaceuticals:Pharmaceutical sales decreased $39,637 (2.0%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 when compared with the comparable period in 2007, but

|    | increased by $247,826 (53.51%) for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared with the same period in 2007. In the first quarter of 2007, the Company implemented a 9% price increase on its pharmaceutical products, which resulted in customers purchasing approximately five times the normal volume in February 2007 in advance of the price increase. While the Company implemented a price increase again in the first quarter of 2008, this time it was only 4%, and customers purchased only 50% more product than normal. As a result, sales of the Companys pharmaceutical products in the first quarter of 2008 were significantly lower than in the first quarter of 2007, but sales in the second and third quarters have significantly exceeded 2007 levels. The Company expects revenue from pharmaceutical sales for the full year to equal or exceed 2007 revenue.

|(c) | Medical (non-pharmaceutical) products:Sales of the Companys medical products increased $174,567 (13.0%) and $51,264 (11.4%) for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 when compared with the comparable periods ended June 30, 2007. The Company believes that this increase is due to buying patterns of its customers.

|(d) | Industrial products:Sales of industrial products decreased $12,949 (13.7%) for the nine- month period ending September 30, 2008 when compared with the comparable period in 2007. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, sales of industrial products decreased $6,120 (17.1%) when compared with the comparable period in 2007.

In addition to the above changes in sales, net sales allowances increased $16,565 (9.3%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and increased $52,344 (184.5%) for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in these allowances for the three months ended September 30, 2008, when compared with the same period in 2007, was primarily due to increases in allowances for distribution fees and chargebacks.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased to 43.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 from 40.0% for the comparable period in 2007. For the three months ended September 30, 2008 cost of sales as percentage of sales increased to 46.7% from 36.8% when compared to the comparable period in 2007. The increase in costs of sales was primarily due to an increase in cost of the Companys most significant raw material, and to a lesser extent to escalating energy, transportation costs and payroll costs.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses consist of selling, general, and administrative expenses. Operating expenses increased $88,173 (4.7%) and $69,685 (12.5%), respectively, for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2008 compared with the comparable periods in 2007. This increase was primarily attributable to payroll and payroll-related expenses.

Other Income

Other income decreased $78,363 (18.2%) and $27,605 (19.6%), respectively, for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2008 when compared with the comparable periods in 2007. This decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in interest rates and to lower returns on investments in 2008.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes decreased by $265,800 (17.9%) and $3,700 (0.8%), respectively, for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2008 when compared with the comparable periods in 2007. These decreases are primarily due to the decreases in the effective income tax rate for both periods and to a decrease in income before taxes of $475,272 (11.4%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 when compared to the comparable period in 2007. An increase in income before taxes of $95,650 (7.6%) for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared with the comparable period in 2007 was more than offset by the decrease in the effective tax rate in the 2008 period.

The Company's effective income tax rate decreased to 32.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared with 35.5% for the comparable period in 2007. The effective tax rate decreased to 32.5% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008 compared with 35.3% for the comparable period in 2007. The decreases in the effective rates are principally attributable to changes in state income tax allocation percentages. Those changes, along with changes in the Federal Domestic Production Activities Deduction, primarily account for differences in the effective income tax rate from the statutory federal income tax rate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working capital increased by $698,883 to $14,099,575 at September 30, 2008 from $13,400,692 at December 31, 2007. The current ratio increased to 13.0 to 1 at September 30, 2008 from 6.7 to 1 at December 31, 2007. The increase in the current ratio was primarily due to the effect of a decrease in dividends payable and an increase in accounts receivable, which were partially offset by other changes in working capital items.

The Company has allocated approximately $63,000 for capital expenditures during the remainder of 2008, and believes that its working capital is and will continue to be sufficient to support its operating requirements for at least the next twelve months.

The Company generated cash from operations of $2,494,954 and $3,545,833 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in income from continuing operations and increases in accounts receivable, which were partially offset by other elements of working capital.

Cash provided by investing activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008 was $86,396 while cash used in investing activities for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2007 was $504,107. Net purchases of marketable securities and of plant equipment were reduced in the 2008 period, and liquidation of temporary investments also contributed to the increase in cash provided in 2008. This increase was primarily due to a decrease in purchases of plant equipment and a decrease in temporary investments and purchases of marketable securities.

Cash used in financing activities was $2,726,533 and $2,414,589 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007, respectively. The increase was mainly due to an increase in dividends paid, with the Company paying a dividend of $0.28 per share in the first quarter of 2008 compared with $0.22 per share paid in the first quarter of 2007.

NEWLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active (FSP 157-3), which clarified the application of FAS 157 and demonstrated how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is inactive. FSP 157-3 was effective upon issuance. The implementation of this standard did not have an impact on the Companys financial position.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. As of September 30, 2008, the Company had not elected to use the fair value option allowed by SFAS 159. The adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 (revised), Business Combinations (SFAS 141 (R)). The standard changes the accounting for business combinations including the measurement of acquired shares issued in consideration for a business combination, the recognition of contingent consideration, the accounting for pre-acquisition gain and loss contingencies, the recognition of capitalized in-process research and development, the accounting for acquisition-related restructuring cost accruals, the treatment of acquisition related transaction costs and the recognition of changes in the acquirer's income tax valuation allowance. SFAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect SFAS 141(R) to have a significant impact on the Companys financial position, and will evaluate the impact in the event of an acquisition.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160). The standard changes the accounting for noncontrolling (minority) interests in consolidated financial statements including the requirements to classify noncontrolling interests as a component of consolidated stockholders' equity, and the elimination of "minority interest" accounting in results of operations with earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests reported as part of consolidated earnings. Additionally, SFAS 160 revises the accounting for both increases and decreases in a parent's controlling ownership interest. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. with early adoption prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption will have on the Company's financial position and results of operations, but does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a significant impact on the Companys financial position.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has no off balance sheet transactions that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the Companys financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

|    | The Companys management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the design, operation, and effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon the evaluation performed by the Companys management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, it was determined that, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.
