NOTE 1

The consolidated financial information herein is unaudited, other than the
Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 1998, which is derived from the
audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. The unaudited interim financial
statements include the accounts of UNIMED Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company"),
and its wholly owned subsidiary, Unimed Canada, Inc.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial
position as of March 31, 1999, the results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 and changes in cash flows for the three month
periods ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

While the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make
the information not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes included in the Company's 1998 annual report on Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTE 2

As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." For
the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company had no material
comprehensive income components.


NOTE 3

In January 1999, the Company received $1,067,000 from Besins Iscovesco U.S.,
Inc. for further development in the androgen gel development programs. The
amount was recorded as deferred research and development revenue and will be
applied as research and development expenditures are incurred.

NOTE 4

In 1998 the Company established a provision for the remittance of higher
Medicaid rebates for Anadrol, pending a decision by the administrators of
Medicaid. In April 1999, the Company received notice from the administrators
that a lower rebate rate was appropriate. The Company reversed approximately
$700,000 (net of additional reserves) of its Medicaid rebate reserve into income
in the Fiscal 1999 Period.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 1998

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 (the "Fiscal 1999 Period")
increased 43% or $1,707,000 to $5,721,000 compared to net sales of $4,014,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 (the "Fiscal 1998 Period"). The
increase in net sales was attributable to higher unit sales in a combination of
17% sales increase in Marinol(R) (dronabinol) and 94% sales increase in
Anadrol(R) (oxymetholone), offset by a 17% decrease in Maxaquin(R) sales.
Anadrol was launched in February 1998. The Fiscal 1998 Period represents two
months sales of Anadrol, amounting to $1,450,000.

Cost of sales increased by $358,000 or 39% for the three month period ended
March 31, 1999 compared to the three month period ended March 31, 1998. This
increase is directly attributable to higher unit sales volume. Cost of sales
expressed as a percent of net sales decreased from 23% for the Fiscal 1998
Period to 22% for the same period in 1999.  This decrease is due to changes in
product mix.

Operating and administrative expenses increased in the Fiscal 1999 Period by
$349,000 or 44%. The increase is mainly attributable to a one-time severance
expense related to senior management changes. Operating and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 20% in both the Fiscal 1999 and 1998
Periods.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $372,000 to $2,456,000 in the Fiscal 1999
Period as the Company continued to expand its specialty field sales force. Sales
and marketing expenses were 43% of net sales in the Fiscal 1999 Period compared
to 52% in the Fiscal 1998 Period. The Fiscal 1998 Period amount included
approximately $1,000,000 associated with the launch of Anadrol.


                                        9


<PAGE>   10



Net research and development expenses in the Fiscal 1999 Period were $1,517,000
compared to $2,105,000 in the Fiscal 1998 Period, a decrease of 28%. Research
and development expenses were 27% of net sales for the Fiscal 1999 Period and
52% of net sales for the Fiscal 1998 Period. This planned decrease in research
and development spending is due to the completion of Phase III studies related
to Androgel(TM), the Company's testosterone replacement product, in 1998. The
decrease is also attributable to fewer clinical trials conducted during the
Fiscal 1999 Period. In addition, Fiscal 1998 Period expenses included costs
associated with the filing of the Cryptaz(TM) new drug application.

Net loss for the Fiscal 1999 Period was $328,411 or four cents per share
(basic). Net loss for the Fiscal 1998 Period was $1,706,921 or nineteen cents
per share (basic). The outstanding options for the Fiscal 1999 and 1998 Periods
were antidilutive and therefore diluted earnings per share is not presented.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1999, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments of $8,355,000, compared to $7,487,000 at December 31, 1998, an
increase of $867,558. This increase is primarily the result of increased
receivable collections and timing of inventory shipments.

The Company used net cash in operations totaling $437,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999. Current receivables decreased by $655,000 due primarily to
timely collections of receivables on fourth quarter 1998 sales. Inventories
increased $592,000 due to the timing of new inventory deliveries.

In 1998 the Company established a provision for the remittance of higher
Medicaid rebates for Anadrol, pending a decision by the administrators of
Medicaid. In April 1999, the Company received notice from the administrators
that a lower rebate rate was appropriate and therefore the Company reversed
approximately $700,000 (net of additional reserves) of its Medicaid rebate
reserve into income in the Fiscal 1999 Period.

In January 1999, the Company received $1,067,000 from Besins Iscovesco U.S.,
Inc. for further development in the androgen gel development programs. The
amount was recorded as deferred research and development revenue and will be
applied as research and development expenditures are incurred.

The Company believes that its existing cash and investment balances are adequate
to fund cash requirements for 1999 and the foreseeable future. However, certain
factors could affect the need for additional cash, such as product development,
new product launches, and sales and marketing efforts.

Year 2000 Program

The Year 2000 issue concerns the inability of many computer systems and other
equipment to properly recognize and process date-sensitive information during or
after the Year 2000 because their computer chips or processors use only two
digits to represent the year. As a result, business and governmental entities
are at risk for possible miscalculations or system failures causing disruptions
in their business operations. A Year 2000 problem can arise at any point in the
Company's product development, supply, manufacturing, data processing,
distribution and financial operations. The Company uses computer systems for
internal data processing, record-keeping and inventory management, and for the
compilation and evaluation of product development data.

The Company has implemented a year 2000 readiness program with the objective of
having all of its significant business systems functioning properly with respect
to Year 2000 issues well before January 1, 2000. The Company's Year 2000
readiness program is being addressed in steps, and to a large extent is being
implemented on a system-by-system or computer-by-computer basis. The first step
is the identification of the Company's critical business systems. The second
step is evaluation of the Company's critical business systems to determine the
need for remediation or replacement. The third step is the actual remediation
and replacement of material business systems, and the fourth step is testing and
implementation. The Company is currently operating in the fourth step of the
readiness program.

The Company has identified substantially all of its business systems that could
encounter Year 2000 problems. Because within the normal course of business the
Company has upgraded its systems, substantially all of the Company's business
systems and related software are Year 2000 compliant. The Company is primarily
using internal personnel and to a lesser extent contract programmers and vendors
to complete the evaluation steps of its program, to modify codes and software in
business systems that require remediation, and to test the business systems. The
Company has identified the computer hardware and software that need to be
replaced and is in the process of cost negotiations. The Company does not
believe that it will encounter difficulties or unreasonable costs in making any
hardware or software replacements necessary to substantially achieve Year 2000
readiness. The Company currently anticipates any additional costs associated
with further Year 2000 readiness will not be a material amount. Additional costs
could be incurred if the Company finds it necessary to engage outside
consultants to complete its contingency plan or if its contingency plan is
implemented. Year 2000 program costs are being funded out of cash flow and,
except for the depreciation of capital items, are being expensed as they are
incurred.

The Company relies on third party suppliers for raw materials, contract
manufacturing, transportation, product distribution, product testing and
development, and other key services ("Key Service Providers"). The Company is
currently surveying its Key Service Providers to reasonably determine their
state of Year 2000 readiness. Most of the Company's Key Service Providers are
public companies or subsidiaries of public companies or are public institutions
and utilities and, accordingly, have similar responsibilities to those of the
Company regarding Year 2000 readiness. The Company 


                                       11


<PAGE>   12



is also developing contingency plans to replace Key Service Providers that it
determines will not be Year 2000 compliant as to the Company's needs before
January 1, 2000.

The Company believes that temporary interruptions to its business could be
encountered if some or all of its Key Service Providers do not timely achieve
Year 2000 readiness. There is a risk of short-term interruption in the supply of
raw materials, manufacturing of product, processing sales, and conducting and
reporting clinical studies and other product development information. Product
sales could be deferred if communications with supply warehouses and
distributors should fail. Such disruptions and delays could result in deferred
or lost revenue and increased expenses. The Company is finalizing the
contingency plan to reduce the risk of interruptions in its business. The
contingency plan is expected to include the identification of replacement Key
Service Providers, the build-up of raw material and finished product inventories
to assure product availability, and the arrangement of alternative facilities
and equipment for testing and operations, should the need arise. The Company's
contingency plan will be designed to manage, not fully eliminate the potential
for disruptions due to Year 2000 problems.

The Company's Year 2000 readiness program is an ongoing process and the risk
assessments and estimates of costs and completion dates for various steps and
components of the program are subject to change. The cost of the Year 2000
program and the dates on which the Company believes the steps of the program
will be completed are based on management's best estimates, which were derived
using numerous assumptions of future events. Factors that could cause such
changes include, among other things, availability of qualified personnel and
consultants, the actions of third parties, primarily Key Service Providers, and
material changes in governmental regulations affecting the Company's products.
There can be no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and actual
results could differ materially from those anticipated.
