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 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes included in the Companys 2010 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):



|                  |  |               |       |                |   |

F. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Cash Flow Hedges  Interest Rate Swap Agreement

As described in Note G below, in June 2010, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a initial notional amount of $4 million, whereby
the interest rate payable by the Company on the unpaid balance of the new term loan is effectively converted to a fixed interest rate of 4.875% for the period beginning August 2, 2010, and ending August 1, 2017. The Company entered into
this interest rate swap to mitigate future interest rate risk associated with advances under the credit facility. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of
derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The
ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company did not record any hedge ineffectiveness in earnings during the three months ended July 31, 2010 and 2009. Amounts reported in
accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Companys revolving credit facility.

The change in fair value of cash flow hedges, net of tax for the three months ended July 31, 2010 was $11,000. The change in fair value was recorded
in the Companys consolidated balance sheet as a current liability and accumulated other comprehensive loss.

G. Subsequent Events

On August 2, 2010, the Company amended its existing bank agreement covering its unsecured $14 million revolving credit facility to provide for an
additional $4 million seven-year term loan secured by the Companys real property and equipment located in Statesville, North Carolina. The term loan requires monthly principal payments of approximately $17,000, plus interest calculated at the
30-day LIBOR Market Index Rate plus 1.575%, with payment of the outstanding principal balance and any unpaid interest at the term loan maturity date. In June 2010, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement whereby the interest rate
payable by the Company on the term loan was effectively converted to a fixed interest rate of 4.875%, effective August 2, 2010. The term loan includes financial covenants similar to the unsecured revolving credit facility. The proceeds of the
term loan will be used primarily to fund the expansion of the Companys Statesville, North Carolina manufacturing facilities.

H.
Reclassifications

Certain 2009 amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2010 presentation in the consolidated 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 2010 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, 2010. The following discussion and analysis describes material changes in the Companys consolidated financial condition since April 30, 2010. The analysis of results of operations compares the
three months ended July 31, 2010 with the comparable period of the prior fiscal year.

Results of Operations

Sales for the three months ended July 31, 2010 were $24,858,000, a decrease of 5% from sales of $26,249,000 in the same period last year. Sales from
Domestic Operations were $20,948,000, a decrease of 10% from the prior year period. The decline was primarily the result of on-going softness in the marketplace for small and mid-sized laboratory projects and the scheduled timing of shipments in the
order backlog. Sales from International Operations were $3,910,000, an increase of 35% from the prior year period, as the Company experienced increased international sales opportunities.

The gross profit margin for the three months ended July 31, 2010 was 20.1% of sales, as compared to 22.0% of sales in the comparable quarter of the
prior year. The decreases in the gross profit margin percentages were primarily due to lower sales prices due to the competitive marketplace.

Operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2010 were $3,901,000, or 15.7% of sales, as compared to $3,966,000, or 15.1% of sales, in the
comparable period of the prior year. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to lower incentive compensation expense, partially offset by higher operating expenses at our foreign subsidiaries. The increase in expense as a percent of sales was due
to the lower sales level in the current year period.

Operating earnings were $1,098,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2010. This
compares to operating earnings of $1,798,000 for the comparable period of the prior year.

Interest expense was $45,000 for the three months
ended July 31, 2010, as compared to $41,000 for the comparable period of the prior year. The increase for the current year period resulted from an increase in short-term borrowings.

Income tax expense of $329,000 was recorded for the three months ended July 31, 2010, as compared to
income tax expense of $589,000 recorded for the comparable period of the prior year. The effective tax rate was 31.2% for the three months ended July 31, 2010, and was 33.5% for the comparable period of the prior year. The effective tax rates
for each of the current year and prior year period were below the statutory tax rates due to the combination of lower income tax rates in the geographic locations of the Companys subsidiaries and 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 $67,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2010, as compared to a reduction of $97,000 for the comparable period of the prior year. The decrease in minority interests in the current year period was directly
related to lower earnings of the Companys two subsidiaries in the current year.

Net earnings were $657,000, or $0.25 per diluted share,
for the three months ended July 31, 2010. This compares to net earnings of $1,071,000, or $0.42 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. Certain machinery and equipment are financed by non-cancellable operating leases or capital leases. Additionally, the current expansion of the Companys Statesville, North Carolina
manufacturing facilities is to be funded by a new $4 million term loan. See Note G of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report Form 10-Q for a description of the term loan agreement
and related interest rate swap. 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 $18.9 million at July 31, 2010, compared to $20.1 million at April 30, 2010. The ratio of current assets to
current liabilities was 1.9-to-1.0 at July 31, 2010, compared to 2.1-to-1.0 at April 30, 2010. At July 31, 2010, advances of $7,496,000 were outstanding under the Companys bank revolving credit facility, as compared to advances
of $4,872,000 outstanding as of April 30, 2010.

The Companys operations used cash of $88,000 during the three months ended
July 31, 2010. Cash was provided from operating earnings and offset by an increase of $1,299,000 in accounts receivable. The Companys operations provided cash of $1,246,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2009 as cash provided
from earnings and a decrease of $616,000 in accounts receivable, which were partially offset by cash used to fund an increase in inventory on hand.

During the three months ended July 31, 2010, net cash of $2,156,000 was used in investing activities, primarily for capital expenditures. This
compares to the use of $2,022,000 for investing activities in the comparable period of the prior year, primarily for capital expenditures.

The Companys 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, which was partially offset by cash dividends of $257,000 paid to stockholders. Financing activities provided cash of $223,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2009. Cash provided included $509,000
received from short-term borrowings, which was partially offset by cash dividends paid of $205,000 and payments on obligations under capital leases of $81,000.

Outlook for Fiscal Year 2011

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.

The Company expects that sales and earnings for the first half of fiscal year 2011 will likely be below the prior year period, followed by a stronger
second half of the year. The Companys expectations are based on a number of factors, including scheduled delivery dates for orders in the order backlog, a partial recovery of the global economy, continuing increased sales opportunities for the
Companys products in the international marketplace, sales and earnings benefits from new products, and increased manufacturing capabilities in the Companys Statesville, North Carolina and Bangalore, India facilities.

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

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, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three month periods ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended July 31, 2010 and
2009. 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, 2010 and the related consolidated 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 16, 2010, 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, 2010 is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated
financial statement from which it has been derived.
