Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)



|A. | Financial Information
|-- | ---------------------

The unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements of Kewaunee Scientific Corporation (the Company or Kewaunee) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission). Accordingly, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes that
the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Companys 2008 Annual Report to Stockholders. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be
expected for the full year.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that
affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis

of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The
Companys 2008 Annual Report to Stockholders contains managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations at and for the year ended April 30, 2008. The following discussion and analysis describes
material changes in the Companys financial condition since April 30, 2008. The analysis of results of operations compares the three months ended July 31, 2008 with the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.

Results of Operations

Sales for the three months ended July 31,
2008 were $25,395,000, an increase of 22% from sales of $20,784,000 in the same period last year. Sales from Domestic Operations were $21,013,000, an increase of 17% from the prior year period. Sales from International Operations were $4,382,000, an
increase of 58% from the prior year period. The order backlog at July 31, 2008 was $60.4 million, as compared to a backlog of $58.7 million at April 30, 2008 and $54.7 million at July 31, 2007.

The gross profit margin for the three months ended July 31, 2008 was 21.1% of sales, as compared to 20.5% of sales in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The
increase in gross profit margin was due to increased manufacturing efficiencies, savings from alternative sources of raw materials and components, and other cost improvement initiatives, which more than offset higher prices paid during the quarter
for certain raw materials, particularly steel and resin, and for energy and transportation.

Operating expenses for the three months ended July 31,
2008 were $3.6 million, or 14.1% of sales, as compared to $3.1 million, or 15.1% of sales, in the comparable period of the prior year. The decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of sales was due to most operating expenses staying relatively
constant while sales increased. The increase in operating expenses in dollars was primarily due to increased expense recorded for performance incentive plans of $182,000, increased administrative salaries expense of $90,000, and increased sales and
marketing expenses of $76,000, partially offset by a decrease of $59,000 in consulting expenses.

Operating earnings were $1,765,000 for the three months
ended July 31, 2008. This compares to operating earnings of $1,115,000 for the comparable period of the prior year.

##### Table of Contents

Interest expense was $89,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2008, as compared to $110,000 for the same period
of the prior year. The decrease in interest expense for the current year period resulted from lower interest rates paid, partially offset by higher levels of borrowings, as compared to the prior year period.

The net of other income and other expense was an expense of $38,000 in the three months ended July 31, 2008, as compared to income of $3,000 for the comparable
period of the prior year.

Income tax expense of $541,000 was recorded for the three months ended July 31, 2008, as compared to income tax expense of
$312,000 recorded for the comparable period of the prior year. The effective tax rate was 33.0% for the three months ended July 31, 2008 and was 31.0% for the three months ended July 31, 2007. The effective tax rate for the three months
ended July 31, 2008 differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the impact of varying income tax rates on income earned by the Companys foreign subsidiaries. In addition to this factor, the effective tax rate in the prior year period
was favorably impacted by earned state and federal tax credits. The increase in the effective tax rate in the current year period as compared to the prior year period resulted primarily from the absence of tax credits no longer available because of
the expiration of tax credits allowable to corporations under the United States Federal Research and Environmental Tax Credit Law.

Minority interests
relate to minority shareholders interest in the Companys two subsidiaries that are not 100% owned by the Company. Minority interests reduced net earnings by $116,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2008, as compared to a
reduction of $22,000 for the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in minority interests in the current period was directly related to increased earnings of the two subsidiaries.

Net earnings were $981,000, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the three months ended July 31, 2008. This compares to net earnings of $674,000, or $0.27 per diluted
share, for the comparable period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, the Companys principal sources of liquidity have been funds generated from operations, supplemented as needed by short-term borrowings under the Companys revolving credit facility.
Additionally, certain machinery and equipment are financed by non-cancelable operating leases or capital leases. The Company believes that these sources will be sufficient to support ongoing business requirements, including capital expenditures
through the current fiscal year.

The
Companys operations used cash of $1,013,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2007. Cash was primarily used to fund a decrease in accounts payable and other accrued expenses as well as a decrease in deferred revenue. These items were
partially offset by cash provided from operating earnings.

activities, primarily for capital expenditures. This compares to the use of $459,000 for investing activities in the same period of the prior year, primarily for capital expenditures.

The Companys financing activities provided cash of $862,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2008. Cash provided included $1,156,000 received from short-term borrowings which was partially offset by
cash dividends paid of $205,000 and payments on obligations of capital leases of $95,000. Financing activities provided cash of $996,000 in the same period of the prior year, which included $1,067,000 received from short-term borrowings, partially
offset by $175,000 for cash dividends and $86,000 for payments on obligations of capital leases.

Outlook for Remainder of Fiscal Year 2009

While the Companys ability to predict future demand for its products continues to be limited given, among other general economic factors
affecting the Company and its markets, the Companys role as subcontractor or supplier to dealers for subcontractors, the Company expects the remainder of fiscal year 2009 to be profitable. In addition to general economic factors affecting the
Company and its markets, demand for its products is also dependent upon the number of laboratory construction projects planned and/or current progress in projects already under construction. The Companys earnings are also impacted by increased
costs of raw materials, including stainless steel, wood, and epoxy resin, and whether the Company is able to increase product prices to customers in amounts that correspond to such increases without materially and adversely affecting sales.
Additionally, since prices are normally quoted on a firm basis in the industry, we bear the burden of possible increases in labor and material costs between the quotation of an order and delivery of a product.

Certain statements in this report constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the
Reform Act). Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could significantly impact results or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors
include, but are not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental, and technological factors affecting the Companys operations, markets, products, services, and prices, as well as prices for certain raw materials and energy. The cautionary
statements made pursuant to the Reform Act herein and elsewhere by the Company should not be construed as exhaustive. The Company cannot always predict what factors would cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the
forward-looking statements. In addition, readers are urged to consider statements that include the terms believes, belief, expects, plans, objectives, anticipates,
intends or the like to be uncertain and forward-looking. Over time, the Companys actual results, performance or achievements will likely differ from the anticipated results, performance or achievements that are expressed or implied
by the Companys forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and harmful to stockholders interests. Many important factors that could cause such a difference are described under the caption Risk

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kewaunee Scientific Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of July 31, 2008,
and the related consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the three-month periods ended July 31, 2008 and 2007. These interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the interim consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We previously audited, in accordance with the standards of
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2008, and the related statements of operations, of stockholders equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented
herein) and in our report dated July 12, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2008 is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statement from which it has been derived.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and the participation of the Companys management, including
