Kewaunee Scientific Corporation

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 include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary
for a fair presentation of these financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Companys 2011 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 interim
consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

B. Inventories

Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):



|                  |  |               |        |  |                |   |        |

levels. Changes in quantities and price levels are reflected in the interim consolidated financial statements in the period in which they occur.

F. Subsequent Event

In August 2011, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the
Amendment) with Bank of America, N.A. The Amendment: (i) increased the amount available under the Line of Credit to $15,000,000, (ii) extended the maturity of the Line of Credit until July 31, 2014, and (iii) changed
the maximum permitted debt to worth ratio from 1.10-to-1.00 to 1.25-to-1.00.

G. Reclassifications

Certain 2010 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2011 presentation in the consolidated statements of operations and
statements of cash flows. Such reclassifications had no impact on net earnings.



|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Companys 2011 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, 2011. The
following discussion and analysis describes material changes in the Companys financial condition since April 30, 2011. The analysis of results of operations compares the three months ended July 31, 2011 with the comparable period of
the prior year.

Results of Operations

Sales for the three months ended July 31, 2011 were $26,321,000, an increase from sales of $24,858,000 in the comparable period of the prior year. Sales from Domestic Operations were $23,396,000, up
from $20,948,000 in the comparable period of the year. The increase was primarily due to the continued demand for larger laboratory projects. Sales from International Operations were $2,925,000, down from $3,910,000 in the comparable period of the
year. The decrease was primarily due to building construction delays for a large international project.

The order backlog was $69.7 million at July 31, 2011, as compared to $65.7 million at April 30,
2011 and $66.9 million at July 31, 2010.

The gross profit margin for the three months ended July 31, 2011 was 15.9% of sales, as
compared to 20.1% of sales in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The decrease in the gross profit margin percentages was primarily due to lower selling prices due to the competitive marketplace and higher costs paid for raw materials,
particularly steel and epoxy resin.

Operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2011 were $3,955,000, or 15.0% of sales, as
compared to $3,901,000, or 15.7% of sales, in the comparable period of the prior year. Expenses were relatively flat with the comparable period of the prior year, while expenses as a percentage of sales declined as sales increased 5.9%.

Interest expense was $95,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2011, as compared to $45,000 for the comparable period of the prior year. The
increase for the current year period resulted from the addition of long-term debt used to finance the expansion of the Companys Statesville facilities in fiscal year 2011.

Income tax expense of $29,000 was recorded for the three months ended July 31, 2011, as compared to income tax expense of $329,000 recorded for the comparable period of the prior year. The effective
tax rate was 21.1% for the three months ended July 31, 2011, and was 31.2% for the comparable period of the prior year. The lower effective tax rate for the current year period resulted primarily from a higher ratio of pretax earnings in the
current period attributable to subsidiaries located in geographic locations with lower income tax rates. Additionally, the effective tax rates for each of the current year and prior year period were below the statutory tax rates due to the impact of
state and federal income tax credits on domestic operations income.

Noncontrolling interests related to the Companys two subsidiaries
that are not 100% owned by the Company reduced net earnings by $86,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2011, as compared to a reduction of $67,000 for the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in the current year period was
directly related to higher earnings of the Companys two subsidiaries in the current year.

Net earnings were $22,000, or $0.01 per
diluted share, for the three months ended July 31, 2011. This compares to net earnings of $657,000, or $0.25 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 from time to time by non-cancellable
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 had working capital of $22.1 million at July 31, 2011 and April 30, 2011. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was
2.0-to-1.0 at July 31, 2011, compared to 2.1-to-1.0 at April 30, 2011. At July 31, 2011, advances of $8,672,000 were outstanding under the Companys $14,000,000 bank revolving credit facility, as compared to advances of
$6,588,000 outstanding as of April 30, 2011. In August 2011, the bank revolving credit facility was increased to $15,000,000 and the maturity date of the credit facility was extended to July 31, 2014. See Note F of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report on Form 10-Q.

The Companys operations used cash of
$887,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2011. Cash provided from operating earnings was offset by a decrease of $1,315,000 in accounts payable and other accrued expenses and an increase of $907,000 in prepaid and other assets. The
Companys operations used cash of $88,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2010, as cash provided from earnings was offset by an increase of $1,299,000 in accounts receivable.

During the three months ended July 31, 2011, net cash of $659,000 was used in investing activities for capital expenditures and an increase in restricted cash. This compares to $2,156,000 used for
investing activities during the three months ended July 31, 2010, primarily for capital expenditures.

The Companys financing
activities provided cash of $1,756,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2011. Cash provided included $2,084,000 received from short-term borrowings, partially offset by cash dividends of $258,000 paid to stockholders. Financing activities
provided cash of $2,342,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2010. Cash provided included $2,624,000 received from short-term borrowings, partially offset by cash dividends of $257,000 paid to stockholders.

Outlook for Remainder of Fiscal Year 2012

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, and the fact that demand for its products is dependent upon the number of laboratory construction projects planned and/or current progress
in projects already under construction. Customer changes to product designs and delivery dates for orders may also delay the start of manufacturing and shipment of orders, which in return may impact the timing of sales revenue and increase
manufacturing costs.

The Companys current expectations are that sales for fiscal year 2012 will improve over fiscal year
2011, and the Company will be profitable. These expectations are based on an analysis of orders in the backlog, cost savings initiatives in process, increased sales opportunities in the international marketplace, and sales and earnings from new
products.

REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

A review of the interim consolidated financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for each of the three month periods ended
July 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010 has been performed by Cherry, Bekaert & Holland, L.L.P., the Companys independent registered public accounting firm. Their report on the interim consolidated financial information follows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Kewaunee Scientific Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of
July 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three month periods ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended July 31, 2011 and
2010. These interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.

We conducted our reviews 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 reviews, 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, 2011, and the related statements of operations, of stockholders equity and of cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated July 15, 2011, 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, 2011 is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statement
from which it has been derived.

2011. Based on that evaluation, the Companys management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that, as of July 31, 2011, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective and designed to ensure that all
material information required to be filed in this quarterly report is made known to them by others within the Company and its subsidiaries.

Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
