Boston BioChem, Inc. and Boston BioChem Limited had combined product sales of about $2.5 million in calendar 2010 and, therefore, the acquisitions will not have a material effect on Techne Corporation's fourth quarter fiscal year 2011 or fiscal 2012 sales. The acquisitions are expected to be slightly dilutive (less than $0.02/share) to Techne Corporation's fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 net earnings due to the impact of acquisition accounting. The Boston Biochem assets were acquired for cash.
