                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Connective
Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company" or "Connective") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, such financial statements do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accrual adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three month period ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997.

These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1996 included in the Company's Form 10-K.

2.      NET LOSS PER SHARE

Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding. Common equivalent shares from stock options and
convertible preferred stock are excluded from the computation as their effect is
antidilutive, except that, pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting Bulletins.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS
128), which requires the Company to simplify the calculation of earnings per
share ("EPS") and achieve comparability with the recently issued International
Accounting Standard No. 33, "Earnings Per Share." Statement No. 128 is effective
for both interim and annual financial statements for periods ending after
December 15, 1997. As a result, the Company will continue to compute EPS in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 15, "Earnings
Per Share," and will adopt and report on SFAS 128 new EPS basis in the fourth
quarter ended December 31, 1997. The impact of SFAS 128 is not expected to be
material to the Company's financial statements.

3.      LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL VIABILITY

In the course of its development activities, the Company has sustained
continuing operating losses and expects such losses to continue over at least
the next few years. The Company plans to continue to finance its operating
activities with a combination of stock sales, such as the initial public
offering completed in February 1996 and the self-managed private financings in
December 1996, payments from corporate partnering arrangements, acquisition of
revenue generating products such as Ridaura (R) and/or debt financing. 
Ultimately, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in the near
future is dependent upon obtaining substantial additional financings.

FOLLOWING DISCUSSION CONSISTS OF FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS
AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS OR EVENTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY
FROM THOSE IN SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. POTENTIAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, UNCERTAINTY OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND MARKET

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
condensed financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of
this Quarterly Report and with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company's Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1996.

OVERVIEW

Connective Therapeutics, Inc. acquires, develops and markets products in the
areas of rheumatology and dermatology. The Company acquired the North American
rights to Ridaura(R) (auranofin), a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, from
SmithKline Beecham Corporation and related entities ("SmithKline") in December
1996. Under a related Transitional Services Agreement, customer orders and
distribution for Ridaura(R) will continue to be managed by SmithKline through
1997. The Company's products under development include gamma interferon for the
treatment of atopic dermatitis and keloids; betamethasone mousse for the
treatment of scalp psoriasis and other scalp dermatoses; ConXn(TM) (relaxin)
for the treatment of scleroderma and other fibrotic disorders; and T-cell
Receptor (TCR) peptide vaccines for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and
rheumatoid arthritis. In March 1997, the Company's board of directors approved a
change of the Company's name from "Connective Therapeutics, Inc." to "Connetics
Corporation", subject to approval by the Company's stockholders at its annual
meeting in May 1997.

In January 1997, the Company released clinical data from a Phase I trial of
ConXn(TM) in diffuse scleroderma which was being conducted concurrent with the
company's Phase II clinical trial in the same indication. The open label study
involved 11 evaluable patients who received continuous subcutaneous infusion of
ConXn(TM) for 24 weeks at either 25 ug/kg/day, 100 ug/kg/day or 200 ug/kg/day
doses. The results demonstrated long-term treatment with ConXn(TM) was well
tolerated with no serious adverse events and resulted in improvement in skin
scores, a measure of skin thickening often used as a clinical endpoint in
scleroderma and associated life-threatening hardening of the skin and internal
organs.

The Company initiated a Phase I/II clinical trial of its therapeutic vaccine for
multiple sclerosis in January 1997. The trial will further evaluate safety and
immunogenicity of the Company's proprietary T-cell receptor vaccine being
developed to elicit a heightened immune response against the pathogenic T-cells
believed to cause multiple sclerosis. The randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled study will involve approximately 100 patients with
progressive multiple sclerosis. Earlier results from a physician-sponsored Phase
I/II study of the Company's TCR vaccine technology in progressive multiple
sclerosis indicated that patients who responded immunologically to TCR vaccines
experienced stabilization of disease without side effects during one year of
therapy.

Also in January 1997, the Company initiated a Phase II clinical trial of gamma
interferon in keloids, fibrotic growths that result from excessive collagen
formation, an abnormal healing response in the skin. The placebo-controlled,
multicenter, randomized Phase II study of 40 patients is designed to evaluate
the effectiveness of intralesional gamma interferon therapy to prevent the
recurrence of keloid lesions following surgical excision. The study will involve
two parallel groups to compare gamma interferon against placebo. Keloids are the
second indication for gamma interferon as the Company is currently also
evaluating the product in a Phase III clinical trial for the treatment of atopic
dermatitis.

In March 1997, the Company completed patient enrollment in its Phase III
clinical trial of gamma interferon for treatment of severe atopic dermatitis, a
chronic inflammatory skin disease which may 

                                      -7-

result in significant morbidity and quality of life impairment. A total of 555
patients have been enrolled in the multicenter, randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled study in three parallel groups, consisting of two active
groups (50ug/m2 per day and 50ug/m2 every other day) and placebo. Patients will
receive subcutaneous injections over a 12-week treatment period and undergo a 4
week follow-up to assess duration of response. Primary endpoints include
assessment of total clinical severity based upon erythema (redness of the skin),
papulation (swelling) and excoriation (scratch marks) sores. Results from both
placebo controlled and long-term Phase II trials of gamma interferon for the
treatment of atopic dermatitis demonstrated statistically significant
improvement in clinical sores of erythema and excoriation, and in global
assessment of disease improvement. Side effects were minimal and no significant
changes in safety profile were apparent after two years of chronic use.

The Company initiated in March 1997, a Phase III clinical trial of betamethasone
mousse, a novel foam formulation for the treatment of scalp psoriasis, a
chronic, recurrent dermatologic disease. The Phase III trial is a multicenter,
randomized, double-blind study of approximate 190 patients which will compare
betamethasone mousse therapy against betamethasone lotion. Primary endpoints
include changes in the clinical signs of psoriasis: plaque thickness, scaling,
erythema (redness), and global response to treatment. Decreases in itching and
the amount of scalp area affected by disease, as well as patient assessment of
improvement, will also be evaluated.

Also in March 1997, the Company announced that the United States Patent and
Trademark Office has awarded the Company a patent (U.S. Patent Number 5,614,192)
covering TCR peptides and functional derivatives encompassing the second
complementarity determining region (CDR2) as compositions of matter,
formulations (including peptide cocktails) and methods of treatment of T-cell
mediated diseases. The TCR vaccine technology has shown potential to treat
autoimmune diseases by selectively modulating the body's immune system and the
CDR2 region can provide vaccines having greater selectivity and potency for a
larger number of patients.

There can be no assurance that any of the Company's potential products will be
successfully developed, receive the necessary regulatory approvals or be
successfully commercialized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's revenues are derived from the sales of Ridaura(R) and were $1.5
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The Company had no revenue for the
same period in 1996 as all of its products were in development stage.

Under related Transitional Services and Supply agreements between SmithKline and
the Company, SmithKline will manufacture and supply Ridaura(R) in final package
form and manage distribution of the product. The Company's cost of product sales
includes the cost of Ridaura(R) purchased from SmithKline and per-unit royalty
cost based on product sales. For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company
recorded $0.2 million in cost of product sales and recorded amortization expense
of $1.8 million associated with the acquisition of product rights to Ridaura(R).
No product cost was recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 as the Company
was still in development stage without any revenue generating product.

Research and development expenses were $5.2 million and $2.1 million for the
quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The increase in research
and development expenses of $3.1 million was primarily due to the 555 patient
Phase III clinical trial of gamma interferon for the treatment of atopic
dermatitis, the Phase II clinical trial of ConXn(TM) for the treatment of
scleroderma, the Phase I/II clinical trial of TCR peptide vaccines for the
treatment of multiple sclerosis and the Phase II clinical trial of gamma
interferon for the treatment of keloids, all of which commenced subsequent to
March 1996. Research and development expenses are expected to continue to
increase due to continued expansion of development activities, including
progression in advanced-stage clinical trials, and possible acquisition of new
technologies and products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $1.6 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997, from $1.3 million for the same period in 1996
primarily due to the creation of a new sales and marketing organization,
increases in personnel in the general and administrative functions, and legal
expenses associated with operating as a public company. Selling, general and
administrative expenses are expected to continue to increase primarily due to
expanded business development efforts, increased staffing of the sales and
marketing organization and costs associated with the re-launching of Ridaura(R).


                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

Interest income decreased to $235,000 in the three-month period ended March 31,
1997 compared with $261,000 for the corresponding period in 1996 due to lower
average cash and investment balances held by the Company during the first
quarter of 1997 than during the comparable period in 1996. Interest earned in
the future will depend on Company funding cycles and prevailing interest rates.
Interest expense increased to $452,000 for the three-month period ended March
31, 1997 compared with $264,000 for the corresponding period in 1996 due to
imputed interest expense of $277,000 attributable to the non-interest bearing
$11.0 million promissory note payable to SmithKline for the acquisition of U.S.
and Canadian rights to Ridaura(R). This was offset in part by lower interest
expense associated with lower balances outstanding for obligations under capital
leases and loans, and notes payable.

The Company incurred net losses of $7.6 million and $3.4 million in the first
quarters of 1997 and 1996, respectively. The increase of $4.2 million from 1997
over 1996 was primarily due to a higher level of development stage activities,
and amortization costs and imputed interest expenses associated with Ridaura(R).
The Company expects to incur substantial additional losses over the next
few years and losses are expected to fluctuate from period to period based on
timing of product revenues, clinical material purchases, possible acquisitions
of new products and technologies, scale-up activities and clinical activities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has financed its operations since inception through March 31, 1997
primarily through private sales of equity securities, proceeds from its initial
public offering in February 1996 and two self-managed financings in December
1996 (the sale of its common stock to several institutional investors and the
sale of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock to an offshore
investor).

Working capital decreased by $11.6 million to $3.3 million at March 31, 1997
from $14.9 million at December 31, 1996; cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments decreased by $9.7 million to $14.9 million at March 31, 1997 from
$24.6 million at December 31, 1996. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments resulted primarily from a $3.0 million payment to
SmithKline for rights to Riduara(R) made in January 1997, $0.5 million in
consulting and legal fees associated with the acquisition of Riduara(R), and 
$6.6 million in operating expenses of which $3.5 million relates to clinical
trial activities. Partially offsetting the decrease during the first quarter of
1997 was $0.4 million cash generated from the sale of Ridaura(R). The decrease
in working capital was the result of lower cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, the now current portion of a $6 million note payable due to
SmithKline in January 1998 for rights to Ridaura(R) and increase in accrued
liabilities of $1.1 million associated with clinical trial activities, offset in
part by lower accounts payable and accrued process development expenses. The
decrease in accounts payable and accrued process development expenses of $3.7
million during the first quarter of 1997 was due to payments of $3.0 million to
SmithKline and $0.7 million for gamma interferon material associated with the
Phase III clinical trial.

Receivables at March 31, 1997 increased by $0.9 million to $1.4 million as
compared to $0.4 million at December 31, 1996 as a result of increased sales of
Ridaura(R).

For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, expenditures for equipment and leasehold
improvement totaled $0.4 million of which approximately $0.1 million was
financed through a capital loan arrangement. Total additions for equipment and
leasehold improvements for the period from inception to December 31, 1996
totaled $2.5 million of which $2.3 million was financed through capital lease
and loan arrangements. At March 31, 1997, the Company had invested $2.9 million
in property and equipment, and had approximately $0.8 million available for
borrowing under its capital loan arrangement.

At March 31, 1997, the Company had an aggregate of $16.2 million in future
obligations of principal payments under capital leases, loans, long-term debt
and other obligations, of which $8.6 million is to be paid within the next year.

The Company has a Structured Equity Line Flexible Financing Agreement (the
"Equity Line Agreement") with Kepler Capital LLC ("Kepler") that allows the
Company to access up to $25 million through sales of its Common Stock. The
equity line will be available for a three-year period beginning on or before
December 1, 1997. The Equity Line Agreement provides that the Company can, at
its option, obtain from $500,000 to $2,000,000 at any one time through a sale of
its Common Stock to Kepler, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions,
including registration of shares for resale, 


                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10

minimum volume requirements, and a minimum trading price of $7.00 per share over
a specified period. In addition, the Company must sell $500,000 of its Common
Stock from time to time if the price per share exceeds $10.00 and minimum volume
requirements are met.

The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term
investments, cash generated from the sale of Ridaura(R), and funds available
under the capital loan and the structured equity line, will be sufficient to
fund the Company's operating expenses and capital requirements through 1997. The
Company's future capital uses and requirements are expected to increase in
future periods and will depend on numerous factors, including the progress of
its research and development programs, the progress of clinical and
advanced-stage clinical testing, the time and costs involved in obtaining
regulatory approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting, and enforcing patent
claims and other intellectual property rights, competing technological and
market developments, the ability of the Company to establish collaborative
arrangements, the possible acquisition of new products and technologies, and the
development of commercialization activities. As a result, the Company will
require substantial additional funds prior to reaching profitability and may
attempt to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings,
collaborative arrangements with corporate partners or from other sources. There
can be no assurance that additional funding will be available for the Company to
finance its ongoing operations on acceptable terms if at all.
