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 financial statements and notes included in the Companys 2007 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 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):



|                  |  |                  |       |                |   |

|                  |  | $                | 6,421 |                | $ | 5,869

For interim reporting, LIFO inventories are computed based on year-to-date quantities and interim changes in price
levels. Changes in quantities and price levels are reflected in the interim financial statements in the period in which they occur.

E. Defined Pension Plans

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

The Companys 2007
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, 2007. The following discussion and analysis describes material changes in the
Companys financial condition since April 30, 2007. The analysis of results of operations compares the three and six months ended October 31, 2007 with the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year.

Results of Operations

Sales for the three months ended
October 31, 2007 were $24,727,000, an increase of 15.6% from sales of $21,385,000 in the same period last year. Sales from domestic operations increased 17.9% from the same period last year to $20.1 million. Sales from international operations
increased 6.9% from the same period last year to $4.6 million.

Sales for the six months ended October 31, 2007 were $45,511,000, an increase of 11.9%
from sales of $40,679,000 in the same period last year. Sales from domestic operations increased 13.0% from the same period last year to $38.1 million. Sales from international operations increased 6.4% from the same period last year to $7.4
million. The total order backlog was $54.9 million at October 31, 2007. This compares to $54.7 million at July 31, 2007 and $34.3 million at October 31, 2006.

The gross profit margin for the three months ended October 31, 2007 was 22.5% of sales, as compared to 19.1% of sales in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The gross profit margin for the six months ended
October 31, 2007 was 21.6%, as compared to 17.7% in the comparable period of the prior year. The gross profit margin improvements in the current year periods resulted primarily from increased manufacturing efficiencies, savings from alternate
sources for raw materials and components, and other cost improvement activities.

Operating expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2007 were
$3.4 million, or 13.6% of sales, as compared to $2.9 million, or 13.6% of sales, in the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in operating expenses for the current year quarter resulted primarily from increased costs associated with
incentive plans ($193,000) and sales and marketing expenses ($109,000). Operating expenses for the six months ended October 31, 2007 were $6.5 million, or 14.3% of sales, as compared to $5.5 million, or 13.6% of sales, in the comparable period
of the prior year. The increase in operating

expenses for the six-month period resulted primarily from sales and marketing expenses ($206,000), incentive plans ($193,000), professional and consulting
expenses ($102,000), and bad debt expense ($71,000).

Operating earnings of $2,183,000 and $3,298,000 were recorded for the three and six months ended
October 31, 2007, respectively, compared to $1,181,000 and $1,672,000 recorded for the comparable periods of the prior year.

Interest expense was
$106,000 and $216,000 for the three and six months ended October 31, 2007, respectively, compared to $195,000 and $382,000 for the same periods of the prior year. The decrease in interest expense for the current year periods resulted primarily
from lower borrowing levels, which was somewhat offset by higher interest rates.

Other income was $1,000 and $4,000 in the three and six months ended
October 31, 2007, respectively, compared to other income of $26,000 and $44,000 for the comparable periods of the prior year.

Income tax expenses of
$658,000 and $970,000 were recorded for the three and six months ended October 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to income tax expense of $328,000 and $406,000 recorded for the comparable periods of the prior year. The effective tax rate was
31.7% and 31.4% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2007, respectively, and was 32.4% and 30.4% for the three and six months ended October 31, 2006, respectively. The effective tax rates for each of these periods differs from
the statutory rate due to the impact of earned state and federal income tax credits on the different levels of taxable earnings for the periods and due to varying income tax rates associated with the earnings of foreign subsidiaries.

Minority interest related to the Companys two foreign subsidiaries that are not 100% owned by the Company reduced net earnings by $208,000 and $230,000 for the
three and six months ended October 31, 2007, respectively, as compared to minority interest expense of $115,000 and $226,000 during the comparable periods of the prior year. The increases in minority interest for the current year periods
resulted from increased earnings of the related subsidiaries.

Net earnings of $1,212,000, or $0.47 per diluted share, and $1,886,000, or $0.74 per diluted
share, were recorded for the three and six months ended October 31, 2007, respectively. This compares to net earnings of $569,000, or $0.23 per diluted share, and $702,000, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the three and six month periods 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 had working capital of $14.0 million at October 31, 2007, compared to $12.3 million at April 30,
2007. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.9-to-1 at October 31, 2007, as compared to 1.8-to-1 at April 30, 2007. At October 31, 2007, advances of $2,336,000 were outstanding under the bank credit facility, as
compared to $3,489,000 at April 30, 2007.

The Companys operations provided cash of $1,700,000 during the six months ended October 31,
2007. Cash was provided primarily from operations and an increase in accounts payable and other current liabilities, which were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in deferred revenue. The Companys operations
provided cash of $959,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2006. During this period, cash was provided primarily from operations and a decrease in accounts receivable, which were partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and
other current liabilities.

During the six months ended October 31, 2007, net cash of $1,208,000 was used in investing activities, primarily for
capital expenditures. This compares to the net cash of $582,000 used in investing activities in the same period of the prior year, primarily for capital expenditures.

The Companys financing activities used cash of $1,372,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2007. Cash used included $1,153,000 for reductions of short-term borrowings, $351,000 for cash dividends
paid and $175,000 for payments on obligations under capital leases. Cash uses were partially offset by $307,000 received from the exercise of stock options. Financing activities used cash of $568,000 in the same period of the prior year, which
included $349,000 for cash dividends paid, $140,000 for obligations under capital leases, and $79,000 for reductions in short-term borrowings.

Outlook for Remainder of Fiscal Year 2008

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 of subcontractors, the Company expects the last six months of fiscal year 2008 to be profitable and improved over the same period last year. In addition to general economic factors affecting the Company and its
markets, demand for the Companys 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 may be 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.

REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

A review of the interim financial information included in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the three months and six months ended October 31, 2007 and October 31, 2006 has been performed by Cherry, Bekaert & Holland, L.L.P., the Companys independent auditors. Their report on the interim
financial information follows.

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 October 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended October 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended October 31, 2007 and 2006. These interim 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 consolidated interim 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 Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2007, 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, 2007, 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, 2007 is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statement from which it has been derived.

|Item 5. | Other Information
|------- | -----------------

On December 5, 2007 the
Companys board of directors approved a Change of Control Employment Agreement (the Agreement) with K. Bain Black, Vice President and General Manager of the Technical Products Group. This agreement provides for the payment of
compensation and benefits in the event of termination of Mr. Blacks employment within three years following a Change of Control of the Company, as defined in the Agreement. Mr. Black will receive compensation if the termination of
his employment is by the Company or its successor without cause or by Mr. Black for good reason, as defined in the agreement. Upon such termination of employment within one year following a Change of Control, the Company or its successor will
be required to make, in addition to unpaid ordinary compensation and a lump-sum cash payment for certain benefits, a lump-sum cash payment equal to Mr. Blacks annual compensation. Upon termination of employment occurring after the first
anniversary, but within three years, of the date of the Change of Control, in addition to unpaid ordinary compensation and a lump-sum cash payment for certain benefits, Mr. Black will be entitled to a lump-sum payment equal to one-half
(1/2) of his annual compensation. A copy of the Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.48 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by reference.

Also on December 5, 2007, the Companys board of directors approved an amendment to the Companys Fiscal Year 2008 Incentive Bonus Plan (the Plan) to provide that, upon a Change of Control
of the Company, the Plan will be terminated and participants will receive any bonus amounts earned under the Plan, prorated based on the percentage of the performance period that has passed, with performance measured through the latest month for

been calculated. A copy of the amendment to the Plan is filed as Exhibit 10.47A to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and is incorporated herein by
reference.

On December 10, 2007, we entered into a loan and security agreement (the Loan Agreement) with Bank of America, N.A. (the
Bank), consisting of a $12 million revolving credit facility which matures on September 30, 2010. The Loan Agreement also provides (a) for the issuance of up to $1 million of letters of credit under the $12 million revolving
credit facility for our account, and (b) the guarantee by us of all lines of credit, or other credit facilities, provided by the Bank, or any affiliate of the Bank, to certain of our foreign subsidiaries (Foreign Subsidiary Credit
Lines). The letter of credit facility is a part of the revolving credit facility identified above and the use of such facility, together with the use of any Foreign Subsidiary Credit Line by any of our subsidiaries, is taken into account when
determining availability under our revolving credit facility.

All loans under our revolving credit facility are made and payable in U.S.
dollars and all letters of credit issued under such revolving credit facility are issued in U.S. dollars. All payments made by us pursuant to our guarantee of the Foreign Subsidiary Credit Lines will be made in the manner and in the currency
required by the documents governing such credit facilities. Our subsidiary in India is currently entering into a Foreign Subsidiary Credit Line with the Bank and our subsidiaries may enter into other such facilities during the term of our revolving
credit facility.

All of the obligations under the Loan Agreement, including the related guarantees we provide thereunder, are
collateralized by a first priority security interest in all of the stock or other equity interests owned by us in our subsidiaries, provided that not more than 65% of the total outstanding voting stock of any direct or indirect non-U.S. subsidiary
is required to be pledged.

Amounts under the revolving credit facility will be due and payable in full on September 30, 2010.
Indebtedness under the Loan Agreement bears interest at a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus an applicable margin currently of 1.45% per annum. The applicable margin for loans under the revolving
credit facility is subject to change based upon our fixed charge coverage ratio. Such applicable margin will not be more than 2.05% or less than 1.45%. Interest will be payable monthly in arrears. Any default in the payment of principal, interest,
or other overdue amounts bears interest at 4% above the rate otherwise applicable (or, if there is no applicable rate, at 4% above the rate referred to above). This may result in the compounding of interest. In addition, the Bank may charge us a
late fee equal to 2% of any payment more than fifteen days past due.

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties,
and contains customary covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things (i) incur liens, (ii) incur any indebtedness (including guarantees or other contingent obligations), (iii) engage in mergers and consolidations,
(iv) engage in sales, transfers, and other dispositions of property and assets (including sale-leaseback transactions), (v) make loans, acquisitions, joint ventures, and other investments, including in our subsidiaries, (vi) make
dividends and other distributions to, and redemptions and repurchases from, equity holders, (vii) make changes in the nature of our business, and (viii) make certain changes in our capital ownership. The Loan Agreement also requires us to
comply with certain financial and affirmative covenants.

The Loan Agreement contains events of default that include (i) our failure
to make any payments under the Loan Agreement when due, (ii) covenant defaults, (iii) our making of materially false or materially misleading representations or warranties, (iv) cross defaults to certain other indebtedness,
(v) bankruptcy, insolvency, or other similar proceedings, (vi) our making of an assignment for the benefit of our creditors or a receiver being appointed for a substantial portion of our assets, (vii) judgment defaults of $15 million
or more, (viii) any default under any other agreement we or any of our subsidiaries has with the Bank or any affiliate of the Bank if such default continues for 5 days after receipt of notice thereof, (ix) the Banks failure to have
an enforceable first lien on or security interest in any property given as security for the Loan Agreement, subject to certain liens and encumbrances permitted by the Loan Agreement, (x) any government authority takes action that the Bank
believes materially adversely affects our financial condition or ability to repay, and (xi) any provision of the Loan Agreement or any related document, agreement, or instrument, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason
other than as expressly permitted by the Loan Agreement or such other document, agreement, or instrument or satisfaction in full of all our obligations thereunder, ceases to be in full force and effect in any material respect; or we or any other
person contests in any manner the validity or enforceability of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any related document, agreement, or instrument; or we deny that we have any or further liability or obligation under the Loan Agreement or any
related document, agreement, or instrument (provided, however, that if we claim that such obligations have been paid, such claim shall not be considered a denial of liability), or we purport to revoke, terminate or rescind any provision of Loan
Agreement or any related document, agreement, or instrument.

A copy of the Loan Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.50 and is
incorporated herein by reference.
