'statement expected' error

I keep having an issue right after the first ' if ' statement. I can't figure out what's causing it.

function addInventory ( product, addInventory ) {
    addInventory = parseInt(addInventory);
    if (product.toLowerCase() === 'name' && isNaN(addInventory) === false); {
        inventory += addInventory;
        console.log(inventory);
    } // Right after this closing bracket it says 'statement expected' 
      else if (product.toLowerCase() !== 'name') {
        console.log('There is no product named ' + product + '. Please try again.');
    } else if (isNaN(addInventory)) {
        console.log('Please enter the number of products you would like to add:');
    }
}
