                    Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
                                  (unaudited)

NOTE 1 - GENERAL:

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by 
management in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States 
Securities and Exchange Commission.

In the opinion of Impath Inc. (the "Company" or "IMPATH"), the accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the
financial information for all periods presented. Results for the interim periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results for an entire year and do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2 - PRO FORMA NET INCOME PER SHARE:

Pro forma net income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares
of common stock outstanding after giving effect to the conversion (calculated
using the as-converted method) of the convertible preferred stock that converted
upon the completion of the Company's initial public offering in February 1996.
Common equivalent shares from stock options and warrants are included in the
computation using the treasury stock method to the extent their effect is
dilutive.  All stock options and warrants issued within a one year period prior
to the initial public offering have been treated as outstanding for all reported
periods.

NOTE 4 - INVESTMENTS

The Company invested approximately $20,000,000 of the net proceeds from its
initial public offering in a portfolio of short term fixed income securities
that are actively traded by an investment manager. In accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, the Company's investments are being
recorded at fair value with gains and losses reported in the Statement of
Operations. At March 31, 1996, approximately $18,000,000 of securities with
original maturities of three months or less were included as cash equivalents.
The remaining securities included in the investment portfolio with original
maturities that exceed three months are included in current assets.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 Compared with Three Months 
- ------------------------------------------------------------
Ended March 31, 1995
- --------------------

The Company's total revenues for the first three months of 1996 and 1995 were
$4,742,000 and $3,216,000, respectively, representing an increase of $1,526,000,
or 47.5%, in 1996.  This growth was primarily attributable to a 28.0% increase
in case volume resulting from increased sales and marketing activities.  In
addition, revenue realization per case increased due to product mix changes
toward cases which carry higher reimbursement rates.

Salaries and related costs for the first three months of 1996 and 1995 were
$2,256,000 and $1,473,000, respectively, representing an increase of $783,000,
or 53.2%, in 1996.  This increase was the result of increased personnel
headcount in the Company's New York facility due to the increase in case volume,
as well as personnel costs incurred in connection with the establishment of the
Company's California facility which commenced operations in December 1995.  As a
result of these increased personnel costs, salaries and related costs, as a
percentage of total revenues increased to 47.6% in 1996 from 45.8% in 1995.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first three months of 1996
and 1995 were $2,259,000 and $1,391,000, respectively, representing an increase
of $868,000, or 62.4%, in 1996. The largest component of this increase was an
increase in bad debt expense of approximately $296,000 associated with higher
revenues, and a shift to more revenues requiring copayments. The Company also
incurred approximately $200,000 of selling, general and administrative expenses
at its California facility which commenced operations in December 1995. In
addition, the Company incurred higher supply costs due to its increased volume
as well as higher travel related expenses associated with expanded sales and
marketing activities. Due to the costs associated with the Company's California
facility, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total
revenues increased to 47.7% in 1996 from 43.3% in 1995.

Income from operations for the first three months of 1996 and 1995 was $228,000
and $351,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $123,000, or 35.0%, in
1996.  The 1996 figure reflects the effect on earnings of the net operating
expenses incurred in connection with the establishment of the Company's
California facility, which commenced operations during December 1995.  This
facility will continue to have a negative effect on earnings through at least
the second quarter of 1996 or until it generates sufficient incremental volume
and revenues to cover the facility's operating expenses.


                                      -9-

Interest income, net for the first three months of 1996 and 1995 was $75,000
and $6,000, respectively, representing an increase of $69,000 in 1996. The
increase was the result of increased interest income generated from the proceeds
of the Company's initial public offering of common stock in February 1996,
partially offset by increased interest expense due to additional capital lease
obligations.

The tax provision for the first three months of 1996 of approximately $135,000
reflects federal, state and local income tax expense.  The Company has estimated
its annual effective tax rate for 1996 to be approximately 45% which is in line
with the current provision.  For 1995, the Company had recorded deferred tax
assets to the extent of taxes that it expected to pay on estimated 1995 taxable
earnings.  Management believes that realization of such deferred assets is more
likely than not.  As such, it estimated its annual effective tax rate for 1995
to be zero.

As a result, net income for the first three months of 1996 and 1995 was $168,000
and $357,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $189,000 or 52.9% in
1996.  As a percentage of total revenues, net income decreased to 3.5% in 1996
from 11.1% in 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The Company's cash and cash equivalent balances at March 31, 1996 and December
31, 1995 were $24,423,000 and $1,513,000, respectively, representing an increase
of $22,910,000 in 1996.  This increase was primarily attributable to
approximately $26,000,000 of net proceeds from the initial public offering of
the Company's common stock, which was consummated on February 26, 1996.  In
addition, the Company invested approximately $2,020,000 of the net proceeds in
marketable securities.

For the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Company used net cash in
operating activities of approximately $2,758,000. This utilization of net
operating cash was the result of an investment in short term marketable
securities of approximately $2,020,000 and an increase in accounts receivable of
approximately $1,400,000 due to rapid sales growth. In addition, the Company
paid approximately $560,000 in accrued dividends on preferred stock prior to the
initial public offering.

At March 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of approximately $28,113,000.
The Company's capital expenditures through March 31, 1996 in connection with the
establishment of its California facility were approximately $1,140,000, which
were partially financed through capital equipment leases, a $300,000 secured
term loan, and a $145,200 leasehold improvement allowance from the landlord.
The Company prepaid the balance of the $300,000 secured term loan with the
proceeds from the initial public offering.

The Company's growth strategy is anticipated to be financed through the net
proceeds from the initial public offering, its current cash resources and
existing third party credit facilities.  The Company believes the combination of
these sources will be sufficient to fund its operations and satisfy the
Company's cash requirements for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.
There may be circumstances, however, that would accelerate the Company's use of
proceeds


                                     -10-

from the initial public offering.  If this occurs, the Company may,
from time to time, incur additional indebtedness or issue, in public or private
transactions, equity or debt securities.  However, there can be no assurance
that suitable debt or equity financing will be available to the Company.
