NOTE K - INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
The Company classifies its operations into four business segments: ophthalmic, hospital drugs & injectables, biologics & vaccines, and contract services. The ophthalmic segment manufactures, markets and distributes diagnostic and therapeutic pharmaceuticals, as well as OTC eye care products. The hospital drugs & injectables segment manufactures, markets and distributes drugs and injectable pharmaceuticals, primarily in niche markets. The contract services segment manufactures products for third party pharmaceutical and biotechnology customers based on their specifications. The biologics & vaccines segment, which the Company exited during the first quarter of 2010, marketed adult Tetanus-Diphtheria (“Td”) and Flu vaccines directly to hospitals and physicians as well as through wholesalers and national distributors.
 
The Company was party to an Exclusive Distribution Agreement with the Massachusetts Biologic Laboratories of the University of Massachusetts Medical School (“MBL”) dated as of March 22, 2007 (the “MBL Distribution Agreement”) for the distribution of MBL's Td vaccine.  The Company exited the biologics & vaccines segment upon termination of the MBL Distribution Agreement on March 14, 2010.  The Company had terminated distribution of Flu vaccines during 2009.  The Company has not operated in the biologics & vaccines segment since March 31, 2010.
 
The Company's basis of accounting in preparing its segment information is consistent with that used in preparing its consolidated financial statements.

The Company manages its business segments to the gross profit level and manages its operating and other costs on a company-wide basis. Inter-segment activity at the gross profit level is minimal. The Company does not identify assets by segment for internal purposes, as certain manufacturing and warehouse facilities support more than one segment.
