<B><I><LI>Property, Plant and Equipment:</B></I> Accumulated depreciation on property, plant and equipment was $196.4 at June 30,1999, and $188.3 at December 31, 1998.</LI>
<B><I><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Restructuring Charges:</B></I> In the second quarter of 1998, the Company announced a restructuring program which was undertaken to improve the competitive position of the Company by streamlining worldwide operations and
reducing the overall cost structure. The program included the consolidation of certain manufacturing operations, realignment of various international subsidiary organizations to focus on operating business units and discontinuance of non-strategic product
lines. In the third quarter of 1998, the Company recorded an expense associated with these activities of $42.8 ($29.1 after tax) including a restructuring charge of $33.6 and a charge against cost of sales of $6.2 for inventory and $3.0 for fixed asset
write-offs. The non-strategic product lines consisted of high pressure liquid chromatography equipment, semiconductor fab monitoring and control software and various filtration devices. The $33.6 restructuring charge included $18.3 of employee severance
costs, the write-off of $1.8 for fixed assets and $7.7 for intangible assets associated with the discontinued product lines consisting of unpatented completed technology and tradenames, $3.8 of lease cancellation costs and $2.0 of marketing, research and
vendor contract termination costs. </LI></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The restructuring initiatives combined with the consolidation of the Company's microelectronics plants resulted in the elimination of 620 positions worldwide (400 positions in manufacturing operations, 160 in selling, general and
administrative positions and 60 in research and development). Notification to employees was completed during the third quarter of 1998, although some of the employees affected will continue working in their existing positions through 2000 with their
related salary costs charged to operations as incurred. As of June 30, 1999, 527 employees have left the Company pursuant to this initiative. Under the terms of the severance agreements, the Company expects to pay severance and associated benefits through
the early part of 2000. </P>

<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=2><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">In the second quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter of 1998, the U.S. dollar strengthened against most European currencies and weakened against major Asian currencies. During the first half of 1999
the Japanese yen was 10% stronger than the first half of 1998. However, somewhat offsetting this, during the same first half of 1999 as compared to the first half of 1998, European currencies have devalued. Therefore, if foreign exchange rates remain at
July 27, 1999 levels, then the expected third quarter sales growth in dollars would be approximately 2% percentage points higher than local currency growth rates. Projected full year 1999 reported sales growth rates are anticipated to be generally 1%
higher than local currency growth rates.</P>

<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Biopharmaceutical & Research sales, in local currency, increased 11% in the second quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter of 1998. The growth was broad-based across product lines and geographies. In particular, revenue
growth from the sale of process systems was very strong. The order pattern for process systems is not linear and large orders are received on a periodic basis which may positively or negatively impact quarterly comparisons. Sales growth was also strong
for consumable filtration products used in sterile drug production, laboratory research applications and water filtration devices. Sales growth, in local currency, was positive in all geographies, with the lowest growth rates in the Europe. This segment
anticipates continued sales growth for the remainder of 1999. </P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">In May 1999, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Bioprocessing Corporation Limited (Bioprocess) in exchange for 660,000 shares of Millipore common stock. Bioprocess develops, manufactures and sells chromatographic media for
the purification of proteins. The impact of this acquisition on the results of operations to the Biopharmaceutical & Research segment was immaterial. </P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Microelectronics sales in local currency decreased 7% in the second quarter of 1999 compared to the second quarter of 1998. This segment has had negative quarterly sales comparisons starting in the second quarter of 1998 reflecting the
impact of the semiconductor industry downturn and the recessionary conditions of the Asia/Pacific region. Since first quarter of 1999, the Company began to see an indication of a recovery in the semiconductor industry coupled with some stabilization of
the Asian economies. These conditions, although improving, continued to negatively impact Microelectronics demand in this period as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. </P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The Microelectronics segment reported two quarters of double-digit sequential sales growth from the fourth quarter of 1998. Recent industry reports suggest a reduction in excess capacity in the semiconductor industry and some increase
in overall semiconductor demand. While the Company expects these trends to create increased demand for Microelectronics equipment as well as consumables, the timing and extent of the overall industry "recovery" is not certain. The Company expects to
report an increase in the level of sales for the Microelectronics segment in the third quarter of 1999 as compared to the third quarter of 1998.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Gross profit margins were 54% of sales in local currencies in the second quarter of 1999 compared to 51% reported in the second quarter of 1998. The gross profit margins have improved for two sequential quarters as a result of the
restructuring initiatives taken in the third quarter of 1998 as well as the impact of increased volume. The Company expects gross margin percentages in the third quarter of 1999 to decrease slightly compared to the second quarter of 1999 due to scheduled
annual plant shutdowns and seasonal slowdown of business in the Biopharmaceutical & Research segment.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Selling, general and administrative expenses in local currencies increased 3% in the second quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter of 1998 due primarily to the accrual of management incentive bonuses which was not recorded in
1998 due to the financial performance of the Company. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses in local currencies decreased 1%.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Research and development expenses in local currencies decreased 4% in the second quarter of 1999 as compared to the second quarter of 1998 due to the restructuring of certain research and development alliance agreements and the
consolidation of the Company's Microelectronics operations. Research and development expenses decreased from 8% to 7% as a percentage of sales in local currencies. .</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Net interest expense in the second quarter of 1999 was slightly higher than the second quarter of 1998 due primarily to higher interest rates resulting from the September 1998 renegotiation of the Company's Revolving Credit Agreement
offset in part by lower average borrowings. The Company expects that interest expense in the third quarter and for the year ended 1999 will be slightly higher than the corresponding periods of 1998 due primarily to higher interest rates.</P>

<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 1999 was 21.0%, the same as the effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the full year of 1998, excluding the one-time impact of the restructuring program and the
litigation settlement. The Company expects to sustain the 21.0% tax rate for the remainder of 1999. </P>
<U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Foreign Exchange</P>
</U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">A substantial portion of the Company's business is conducted outside of the United States through its foreign subsidiaries. This business is transacted through the Company's network of international subsidiaries generally in the
local currency. This exposes the Company to risks associated with foreign currency rate fluctuations, which can impact the Company's revenue, net income and cash flow. Sourcing of product from international subsidiary plants and active management of cross
border currency flows partially mitigates the impact of changes in foreign currency. However, the Company has significant exposure to changes in the Japanese yen that can not be mitigated through normal financing or operating activities. Accordingly, this
risk is managed through the use of derivative financial instruments. The income and cash flow exposure is managed through the use of option contracts and the net equity exposure to the Japanese yen is hedged through the use of debt swap agreements.
Although the Company mitigates its foreign currency exchange risk through these activities, when the U.S. dollar strengthens against currencies in which the Company transacts its business, sales and net income will be adversely impacted.</P>
<U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Restructuring Charges</U>	</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">In the second quarter of 1998, the Company announced a restructuring program to improve the competitive position of the Company by streamlining worldwide operations and reducing the overall cost structure. The restructuring program was
initiated to bring operating costs in line with lower revenues resulting from the financial difficulties in Asian economies, the strong U.S. dollar and the continuation of the semiconductor industry slump.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Key initiatives include:</P>
<OL>

<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Discontinue non-strategic product lines and rationalize product offerings to improve product line focus.</LI></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Consolidate certain manufacturing operations to eliminate duplicate manufacturing processes.</LI></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Realign European country organizational structure to focus on operating business units and establish a regional transaction service center resulting in the consolidation of financial and administrative activities into a single
location.</LI></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Reduce administrative and management infrastructure costs in Asia. </LI></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Renegotiate marketing, research and vendor contractual agreements.</LI></P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"><LI>Streamline the supply chain management function through the centralization of worldwide procurement functions and the consolidation of vendors.</LI></P></OL>

<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">	</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">In the third quarter of 1998, the Company recorded an expense associated with these activities of $42.8 million ($29.1 million after tax) including a restructuring charge of $33.6 million and a charge against cost of sales of $6.2
million for inventory and $3.0 million for fixed asset write-offs. The $33.6 million restructuring charge included $18.3 million of employee severance costs, $9.5 million write-off of real and intangible assets associated with discontinued product lines,
$3.8 million of lease cancellation costs and $2.0 million of contract termination costs. Approximately $5.6 million of restructuring costs were paid in 1998 and $3.6 million in the first half of 1999. These expenditures consisted primarily of employee
severance. The remaining accrual of $14.9 million will be substantially paid out in 1999. The major programs, most of which will be completed in 1999, include the realignment of European operating units, establishment of the European regional transaction
center, streamlining the supply chain management function, consolidating certain manufacturing operations and cancellation of leases. Several of the manufacturing consolidations originally planned for 1999 have been delayed to 2000 due to facility
preparation and customer requirements.</P>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF</P>
<P ALIGN="CENTER">FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The restructuring initiatives combined with the consolidation of the Company's Microelectronics plants resulted in the elimination of 620 positions worldwide. Notification to employees was completed during the third quarter of 1998,
although some of the affected employees will continue in their existing positions through 2000 with their related salary costs charged to operations as incurred. As of June 30, 1999, 527 employees have left the Company pursuant to this initiative. Under
the terms of the severance agreements, the Company expects to pay severance and associated benefits through the early part of 2000.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">When fully implemented the combination of the restructuring programs and the Microelectronics plant consolidation are expected to yield savings for the full year of $38.0 million as compared to the annualized results of the second
quarter of 1998. The savings in employee compensation, facility related costs, depreciation and amortization will be primarily reflected as reductions in Cost of Sales. In the first half of 1999, the Company realized savings of approximately $18.0 million.</P>
<U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Capital Resources And Liquidity</P>
</U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Cash generated by operations in the first six months of 1999 was $36.7 million compared to $7.0 million in the first six months of 1998. During the first six months of 1999 and 1998, cash expenditures amounting to $6.7 million and
$13.2 million, respectively, were charged against reserves established for the 1998 restructuring activities and the integration of the Amicon and Tylan Acquisitions. Excluding the restructuring and acquisition related expenditures, cash flow from
operations for the first six months of 1999 and 1998 was $43.4 million and $20.2 million, respectively.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The increase in cash flow from operations, excluding the restructuring and acquisition expenditures, for the first six months of 1999 as compared to the same period of the prior year is primarily a result of improved results of
operations, improved inventory utilization attributed to asset management initiatives launched in 1998 and actions taken as part of the 1998 restructuring program. Partially offsetting this is an increase in accounts receivables resulting from
significantly higher sales volume late in the second quarter of 1999. The Company continues to aggressively manage its collection activities. This resulted in a decrease in the days sales outstanding in accounts receivable from 83 days in the second
quarter of 1998 to 80 days in the second quarter of 1999.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Cash generated by the Company during the first six months of 1999 was used to reduce short-term debt, invest in property, plant and equipment, and pay dividends. Property, plant and equipment expenditures for the first six months of
1999 were $15.0 million lower than the same period of the prior year due to the construction in 1998 of the new manufacturing facility in Allen, Texas which was substantially completed during that year. The Company expects to spend approximately $40.0 to
$45.0 million for property, plant and equipment during 1999.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">During the quarter the Company amended one of its debt swap agreements to provide for the cash collateralization of its obligations if the value of its position declined. While this amendment will not impact the Company's foreign
exchange exposure, it could impact short term liquidity if there were a serious deterioration in the value of the Company's swap position.</P>
<U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">Year 2000</P>
</U><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The Company is aware of the "Year 2000" issue that will affect certain products and systems that were not designed to properly handle the transition between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The Company has recognized the
need to ensure that its business operations will not be adversely impacted by the Year 2000. Accordingly, the Company has authorized an internal team to assess the Company's Year 2000 readiness and to determine the steps necessary to address its Year 2000
issues. Among the areas that have been or are being assessed are the Company's internal information systems, its manufacturing equipment, its facilities and its products. In addition, the team has moved forward in its assessment of the Year 2000 readiness
of the Company's key suppliers and financial institutions.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">As part of the assessment of its Year 2000 readiness, the Company has identified and substantially completed testing its key internal information systems (which includes order entry, manufacturing and financial systems) as well as its
facilities, manufacturing and other key systems for Year 2000 compliance. Implementation of modifications or replacements necessary to make all key systems Year 2000 compliant is under way and is expected to be completed by September 1999.</P><DIR>

<P ALIGN="CENTER">MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF</P>
<P ALIGN="CENTER">FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The Company has substantially completed its testing of the Year 2000 compliance of its products. A large majority of the Company's products do not present Year 2000 compliance issues, and for those products that do present issues the
Company has communicated with its customers regarding appropriate solutions. </P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">In addition to testing of the Company's internal systems and its products, the Company is implementing its plan of communication with its suppliers and financial institutions regarding their Year 2000 readiness and the Year 2000
compliance of the products and services that they provide to the Company. As of June 30, 1999 the Company has not identified any important Year 2000 readiness issues of its key supply-chain partners. The Company expects to substantially complete its risk
analysis and to develop contingency plans where reasonably possible for dealing with risks raised by such non-readiness by September 1999.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The Company currently estimates that the total costs that will be incurred in its Year 2000 assessment and remediation program will be in the range of $1.0 million to $3.0 million, of which approximately $0.9 million has been incurred
through June 30, 1999. Incremental spending has not been and is not expected to be material because most Year 2000 readiness costs will be met with amounts that are normally budgeted for procurement and maintenance of the Company's information systems and
infrastructure. However, the redirection of spending to the implementation of its Year 2000 readiness program may in some instances delay productivity improvements.</P>
<P ALIGN="JUSTIFY">The Year 2000 presents a number of risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company notwithstanding the successful implementation of its Year 2000 readiness program. Those risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to,
