BioSource International, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2001 Financial Results

    CAMARILLO, Calif., July 24 /PRNewswire/ -- BioSource International, Inc.
(Nasdaq: BIOI), announced today its operating results for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 2001.  Net sales for the quarter ended June 30,
2001 increased $311,600, or 4%, (5% after eliminating the $120,000 negative
impact of foreign exchange) to $8.8 million.  Net sales for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 increased $1,077,400, or 7%, (8% after eliminating the
$246,000 negative impact of foreign exchange) to $17.4 million.
    For the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company achieved
revenue growth in North America of 11% and 10%, respectively, as compared to
the similar periods last year due primarily to increased sales of products
related to signal transduction and custom antibodies and proteins.  European
sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 decreased
3% (increasing 2% in local currency) and increased 3% (9% in local currency)
as compared to the similar periods last year.  Sales in the rest of the world
decreased 14% and 2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 as
compared to similar periods in the prior year, primarily due to lower
distributor sales.
    Gross profit margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 was
58% and 56%, respectively, as compared to 61% for both the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000.  The decrease in gross profit margin for the
quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to the prior periods was
due to higher infrastructure cost within the manufacturing area including the
higher cost of the new Camarillo facility, increased depreciation expense,
increased raw material cost in our serum and media lines and increased farm
cost for antibody production.  Gross profit margin increased 4% from 54% to
58% from the three months ended March 31, 2001 to the three months ended June
30, 2001 due to increased sales and improved operating efficiencies.
    Selling, marketing and administration expense for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2001 was $3.2 million and $6.9 million, respectively, as
compared to $3.1 million and $5.5 million for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2000.  The increase of  $100,000 in the second quarter of 2001
compared to the second quarter of 2000 resulted from $846,000 of increased
costs due to the Company's investment in its infrastructure through increased
personnel and increased marketing programs, $727,000 of expense reduction from
a non-cash stock compensation adjustment related to the previously announced
resignation of Russell D. Hays on May 18, 2001, $78,000 of other management
transition costs and $426,000 of legal costs related to an employee
termination.  The three months ended June 30, 2000 included a $523,000 charge
related to costs of a failed follow on offering.  As a percentage of sales,
selling, marketing and administrative expenses represented 36% for the three
months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.
    The increase of  $1.4 million in selling, marketing and administration
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to the six months
ended June 30, 2000 resulted from $1,641,000 of increased costs due to the
Company's investment in its infrastructure through increased personnel and
increased marketing programs, $388,000 of expense reduction from a non-cash
stock compensation adjustment related to the resignation of Mr. Hays,
$158,000 of other management transition costs and $501,000 of legal costs
related to an employee termination.  The six months ended June 30,
2000 included a $523,000 charge related to costs of a failed follow on
offering.  As a percentage of sales, selling, marketing and administrative
expenses represented 40% and 34% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and
2000 respectively.
    Research and development expense for the three and six months ended June
30, 2001 was $925,100 and $1,878,600, respectively, as compared to
$899,200 and $1,721,600 for the comparable periods in 2000.  As a percentage
of sales, research and development expenses have remained at approximately
11% for each period presented.  The increase in expenses for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2001 when compared to the comparable prior year period
reflects the Company's continued focus on new product development.
    The tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and
2000 reflects a 31% estimated tax rate.
    For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company reported a net
income available to common stockholders of $573,800 or $.05 per diluted share
as compared to net income of $382,500 or $.04 per diluted share for the same
period last year.  Second quarter 2001 financial results included a net
reduction in expenses of $223,000 from Mr. Hays resignation and the transition
and legal fees expenses described above while the second quarter
2000 financial results included a net increase in expenses of
$523,000 described above and a $322,500 non-cash redeemable preferred stock
dividend and accretion of beneficial conversion charge.  Net income per fully
diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, excluding
goodwill amortization in both periods and the $223,000 and $845,500 of net
expenses mentioned above was $.06 and $.16 per share, respectively.
    For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company reported a net income
available to common stockholders of $524,200 or $.05 per diluted share as
compared to net income of $19,700 or $.00 per diluted share for the same
period last year.  The first six months of 2001 financial results included a
net increase in expenses of $271,000 from Mr. Hays resignation and the
transition and legal fees expenses described above while the first six months
of 2000 financial results included a net increase in expenses of
$523,000 described above and a $1,469,300 non-cash redeemable preferred stock
dividend and accretion of beneficial conversion charge.  Net income per fully

goodwill amortization in both periods and the $271,000 and $1,992,300 of net
expenses mentioned above was $.12 and $.26 per share, respectively.
