Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To Participants and Administrator of the
Abaxis Tax Deferral Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Abaxis Tax
Deferral Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and
the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2008, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule, as listed in the accompanying table of contents, is
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

Abaxis Tax Deferral Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements

|
The Plan and its Significant Accounting Policies |
General
The following description of the Abaxis Tax Deferral Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only
general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete
description of the Plan.
The Plan is a defined contribution plan containing a cash deferred arrangement described in
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan was established on December 1,
1990 by Abaxis, Inc. (the Company) to provide benefits to eligible employees, as defined in
the Plan document. The Plan is currently designed to be qualified under the applicable
requirements of the IRC, as amended, and the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended, (ERISA).
Administration
The Company has contracted with a third-party-administrator to process and maintain the
participant accounts. Charles Schwab Trust Company was the trustee until August 1, 2008. TD
AMERITRADE Trust Company was appointed the trustee and custodian of Plan assets effective
July 31, 2008. Substantially all expenses incurred for administering the Plan are paid by
the Plan.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and changes therein,
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and ERISA.
Contributions from participants are recorded when withheld from the participant. Benefit
payments are recorded when paid.
As described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position (FSP) AAG INV-1 and
Statement of Position 94-4-1, Reporting of Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts
Held by Certain Investment Companies Subject to the AICPA Investment Company Guide and
Defined-Contribution Health and Welfare and Pension Plans (the FSP), investment contracts
held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However,
contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets
available for benefits of a defined-contribution plan attributable to fully benefit
responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would
receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plan. As
required by the FSP, the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair
value of the investment contracts. No adjustment to contract value was disclosed as fair
value approximated contract value as of December 31, 2008 and 2007. The Plan has considered
the impact of this standard on these financial statements to be immaterial.

Fair Value Measurements
On January 1, 2008, the Plan adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement
No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, and subsequently adopted certain related FASB staff
positions. Statement No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. Statement No. 157 also establishes a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under Statement No. 157 are:
Level 1inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or
similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted
prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs that are derived
principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other
means.
Level 3inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Plans assets
at fair value as of December 31, 2008:

The Plans valuation methodology used to measure the fair values of money market, mutual
funds, and common stock were derived from quoted market prices, as substantially all of
these instruments have active markets. Participant loans are valued at amortized cost, which
approximated their fair values at December 31, 2008.
Common/collective trust funds are valued at fair value by discounting the related cash flows
based on current yields.

Forfeitures
Forfeitures of nonvested Plan sponsor contributions are used to reinstate any former
participant account balance, reduce any matching and/or profit sharing contributions, or may
be used to pay Plan expenses.
Forfeitures of nonvested account balances for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
amounted to approximately $10,000 and $14,000, respectively. Forfeitures used to reduce
employer matching contributions during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted
to approximately $20,000 and $41,000, respectively.
Investments
At December 31, 2008, investments of the Plan were held by TD AMERITRADE, and invested based
solely upon instructions received from participants.
The Plans investments in mutual funds and the Companys common stock is held by the Plan in
a unitized fund, which means participants do not actually own shares of the Company common
stock but rather own an interest in the unitized funds. Participant loans are stated at cost
which approximates fair value.
The Plans investment contract accounts with MetLife Stable Value Fund are fully
benefit-responsive and, therefore, have been reported in the financial statements at
contract value. The fair value of the Plans investment contract account approximates the
contract value at December 31, 2008 and 2007.
Certain events limit the ability of the Plan to transact at contract value with the issuer.
Such events include the following: (1) amendments to the plan document (including complete
or partial plan termination or merger with another plan), (2) changes to the Plans
prohibition on competing investment options or deletion of equity wash provisions, (3)
bankruptcy of the Plan sponsor or other plan sponsor events that cause a significant
withdrawal from the Plan, or (4) the failure of the trust transaction exemption under ERISA.
The Plan administrator does not believe that any events which would limit the Plans ability
to transact at contract value with participants are probable of occurring.

Investments, continued
The average yield on investment contract accounts for the years ended December 31, 2008 and
2007 were 3.82% and 6.53%, respectively. The average crediting interest rates for the
respective years were 4.62% and 4.69%.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative fees in the amount of $41,561 for the year ended December 31, 2008, reflected
in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits, represent fees for
investment advisory, management fees, and record-keeping and are paid directly by the Plan.
Income Taxes
The Plan obtained its latest determination letter dated October 22, 2002 in which the
Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC. The Plan has been amended and restated since receiving
that determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plans tax counsel
believe the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the IRC.
Risk and Uncertainties
The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of investment securities
offered by the Plan. In addition, the Company common stock is included in the Plan.
Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market
fluctuations, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment
securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in market values, interest rate,
or other factors will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect
participants account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets
available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.
2. |
|
Related Party and Party-In-Interest Transactions |
Certain Plan investments are managed by TD AMERITRADE, the trustee and asset custodian of the
Plan. Any purchases and sales of these funds are performed in the open market at fair value.
Such transactions, while considered party-in-interest transactions under ERISA regulations,
are permitted under the provisions of the Plan and are specifically exempt from the
prohibition of party-in-interest transactions under ERISA.
The employers discretionary matching contribution is invested in the Companys common stock
or cash, as elected by the Board. Participants may contribute to the Abaxis, Inc. Common Stock
Fund (the Stock Fund) and may transfer funds from the Stock Fund to other Plan investment
options available by the Plan. Participants are limited to allocate not more than 20% of their
vested contributions to the Stock Fund.

Participation and Benefits |
Participant Contributions
Participants may elect to have the Company contribute a portion of their eligible pre-tax
compensation, not to exceed the amount allowable under current income tax regulations.
Participants who elect to have the Company contribute a portion of their compensation to
the Plan agree to accept an equivalent reduction in taxable compensation. Contributions
withheld are invested in accordance with the participants direction.
Participants are also allowed to make rollover contributions of amounts received from other
tax-qualified employer-sponsored retirement plans. Such contributions are deposited in the
appropriate investment funds in accordance with the participants direction and the Plans
provision.
Effective October 1, 2008, the Plan included an Automatic Contribution Arrangement (ACA).
Under the ACA provisions of the Plan, the participants automatically enrolled for a 3%
payroll deferral per pay period. These contributions are defaulted in the Vanguard Target
Retirement Funds based on the employees age, absent an investment fund election.
Participants have the right to elect not to have the automatic deferrals withheld, and
participants also have the right to elect to defer a different percentage.
Effective August 1, 2008, participants in the Plan may also elect to make contributions to
Roth salary deferred accounts.
Employer Contributions
The Company may make discretionary matching contributions and discretionary profit sharing
contributions as defined by the Plan and as approved by the Board of Directors. In 2008,
the Company matched 50% of each eligible participants contribution up to a maximum of 5%
and 2.5% of the participants eligible compensation on a quarterly basis, respectively.
During 2008, the Company made the matching contributions for the first, second, and third
quarters of the year. There was no discretionary matching contribution made for the fourth
quarter of 2008. No discretionary profit sharing contribution was made in 2008.

Participation and Benefits, continued |
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested with respect to their contributions, plus actual
earnings thereon. Participants are fully vested in the Plan sponsors matching and
discretionary contributions after four years of credited service.
Participant Accounts
Each participants account is credited with the participants contribution, Plan earnings or
losses, and an allocation of the Companys contribution, if any. Allocation of the Companys
contribution is based on participant contributions and compensation as defined by the Plan.
Payment of Benefits
The Plan provides for the payment of benefits to the participant (or, if applicable, the
beneficiary) upon normal retirement (age 60), termination of service, death, or disability.
Participants are entitled to the vested portion of their account balance. In-service
distributions are also available for participants who have attained age 55 and have
completed five years of service, or who qualify for financial hardship. Participants will
receive their distributions in the form of a lump-sum in cash. Terminated participants with
an account balance that does not exceed $5,000 are entitled to a lump-sum distribution
within a reasonable time after terminated employment.
Loans to Participants
The Plan allows participants to borrow not less than $1,000 and up to the lesser of $50,000
or 50% of their vested account balance. The loans are secured by the participants vested
balance. Such loans bear interest at 2% above the prime rate and must be repaid to the Plan
within a five-year period, unless the loan is used for the purchase of a principal
residence, in which case it may be longer. The specific terms and conditions of such loans
are established by the Company. Outstanding loans at December 31, 2008 carry interest rates
ranging from 7% to 10.25%.
