APPLIED ANALYTICAL INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
applicable Securities and Exchange Commission regulations for interim financial
information. These financial statements do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. It is presumed that users of this interim financial
information have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the
preceding fiscal year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
Pro forma financial information is presented on the condensed consolidated
statement of income to reflect a pro forma income tax provision for 1995. Prior
to November 17, 1995, the Company was treated as an S Corporation for income tax
purposes and was not subject to federal and state income taxes. The pro forma
income tax provision applies federal and state income tax rates that would have
resulted if the Company had been subject to corporate income taxes from the
beginning of the year.
2. Stockholders' Equity
On September 19, 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering ("IPO")
of 3,105,000 shares of Common Stock at $16.00 per share. The net proceeds of the
IPO, after underwriting discount and costs in connection with the sale and
distribution of the securities, were approximately $45 million. Concurrent with
the closing of the IPO, all outstanding shares of the Company's Series A
convertible preferred stock and Class B non-voting common stock were converted
into shares of the Company's voting common stock, $.001 par value per share.
The Company recorded unearned compensation of approximately $490 thousand as a
reduction to stockholder's equity for a March 1996 award under the Company's
1995 Restricted Stock Award Plan. As of September 30, 1996, approximately $53
thousand of such amount has been expensed. The remaining amount will be
recognized over the two-year vesting period following the IPO.
3. Earnings Per Share
The weighted average shares outstanding used in the calculation of earnings per
share and pro forma earnings per share include the effect of the conversion of
convertible preferred stock and Class B common stock described above as if they
were converted as of January 1, 1995. Additionally, common stock or equivalent
shares from stock options and awards sold or issued at prices below the IPO
price per share in the twelve months preceding the initial filing have been
included in the calculation as if outstanding as of January 1, 1995.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Quarter ended September 30,1996 compared to quarter ended September 30, 1995
Net sales for the third quarter of 1996 increased to $10.4 million compared to
$8.9 million in the third quarter of 1995. Revenues from fee-for-service
business increased 23% to $10.1 million from $8.2 million in the corresponding
quarter of 1995. License revenues for the third quarter of 1996 were $312
thousand as compared to $738 thousand for the third quarter of 1995. All of the
Company's license revenues for the first nine months of 1995 occurred in the
third quarter of 1995.
Costs of sales for the third quarter of 1996 increased as a percent of net sales
to 40.3% from 38.9% during the comparable period of 1995. This increase is
primarily attributable to the impact of the fluctuation in license revenues. The
Company has experienced no significant increases in the components of costs of
sales as a percentage of net sales. Excluding license revenues from net sales,
the cost of sales percentage declined slightly in 1996 compared to 1995.
Selling expense for the third quarter of 1996 increased by 11% to $1.4 million
from $1.3 million in the third quarter of 1995; however, it decreased as a
percent of net sales to 13.9% compared to 14.6% in 1995. The increase in selling
expense is primarily attributable to marketing expansions to the West Coast of
the United States and Europe.
General and administrative expense for the third quarter of 1996 increased by 3%
but decreased as a percent of net sales to 19.4% compared to 21.9% in 1995.
General and administrative expenses have been in-line with expectations and the
Company has continued its effort to control these costs.
Research and development costs for the third quarter of 1996 increased by 49% to
$1.4 million from $0.9 million in the third quarter of 1995. This increased
spending as a percentage of net sales to 13.4% compared to 10.5% in 1995. The
increase in research and development costs reflects an increase in the number of
active projects in 1996 compared to those under development in 1995.
Interest expense declined in 1996 compared to 1995 as a result of reduced
borrowings.
Net income for the third quarter of 1996 increased 22% compared to pro forma net
income for the third quarter of 1995. The increase in net income is primarily
attributable to the increase in net sales.
Nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to nine months ended September 30,
1995
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased to $31.2
million compared to $25.5 million in the corresponding period of 1995. Revenues
from fee-for-service business increased 21% to $29.9 million compared to $24.8
million in 1995. License revenues increased 69% to $1.2 million compared to $0.7
million in 1995.

<PAGE> 9
Costs of sales for the first nine months of 1996 declined slightly as a percent
of net sales to 41.7% from 42.1% in the comparable period of 1995. The Company
has experienced no significant increases in the components of costs of sales as
a percentage of net sales.
Selling expense for the first nine months of 1996 increased by 25% to $4.6
million from $3.7 million in the corresponding period of 1995 and increased as a
percent of net sales to 14.7% compared to 14.3% in 1995. The increase in
selling expense is primarily attributable to marketing expansions to the
West Coast of the United States and Europe.
General and administrative expense for the first nine months of 1996 increased
by 12% to $6.7 million from $6.0 million in the corresponding period of 1995;
however, it decreased as a percent of net sales to 21.4% compared to 23.3% in
1995. The decrease as a percent of net sales is a reflection of the
Company's continued effort to control general and administrative costs.
Research and development costs for the first nine months of 1996 increased by
39% to $3.2 million from $2.3 million in the corresponding period of 1995. This
increased spending to 10.2% of net sales compared to 9.0% of net sales in 1995.
The increase in research and development costs reflects an increase in the
number of active projects in 1996 compared to those under development in 1995.
Interest expense declined in 1996 compared to 1995 as a result of reduced
borrowings.
Net income for the first nine months of 1996 increased 127% compared to pro
forma net income for the corresponding period of 1995. The increase in net
income is primarily attributable to the increase in net sales in 1996 and not
recognizing any loss on its equity investment in Endeavor. During the nine
months ended September 30,1995, the Company recognized a net loss of $359
thousand from its equity investment in Endeavor.
Quarterly Results
The Company's quarterly results have been, and are expected to continue to be,
subject to fluctuations. Quarterly results can fluctuate as a result of a number
of factors, including the commencement, completion or cancellation of large
contracts, progress of ongoing contracts, recognition of licensing revenue,
potential acquisitions, the timing of start-up expenses for new facilities and
changes in the mix of services. Since a large percentage of the Company's
operating costs are relatively fixed, variations in the timing and progress of
large contracts or the recognition of licensing revenue (on projects for which
associated expense may have been recognized in prior periods) can materially
affect quarterly results. The Company believes that comparisons of its quarterly
financial results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon
as an indication of future performance.

<PAGE> 10
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has funded its business through operating cash flows, proceeds from
borrowings and the issuance of equity. On September 19, 1996, the Company
completed an IPO of common stock with net proceeds to the Company of
approximately $45 million. Working capital at September 30, 1996 was
approximately $55.7 million compared to $12.4 million at December 31, 1995. The
increase is primarily attributable to the IPO proceeds.
Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 1996 were $5.1 million
compared to $1.1 million for the corresponding period of 1995. The increase in
1996 is primarily attributable to the expansion of clinical supply manufacturing
facilities and formulation development facilities, and additional scientific
instrumentation acquired to expand the capacity of laboratory operations.
In May 1996, the Company acquired an option to purchase the outstanding stock of
a European contract research and development organization. The Company paid
approximately $1.0 million to acquire such option, which amount is held in
escrow and will be applied to the purchase price if the Company elects to
exercise such option or returned to the Company if, prior to the expiration of
the option, certain substantial conditions are not satisfied. The Company is
currently conducting its due diligence review and, at this time, does not have
sufficient information to determine if this option will be exercised. The
option terminates on November 28, 1996.
The Company expects to continue expanding its operations through internal growth
and strategic acquisitions. The Company expects such activities will be funded
from existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations and
borrowings under its credit line. The Company believes that such sources of cash
will be sufficient to fund operations for the foreseeable future and to pay
existing debt and other capital obligations as they become due. Although the
Company has no present acquisition agreements or arrangements other than
described above, there may be acquisition or other growth opportunities that
require additional external financing, and the Company may from time to time
seek to obtain funds from public or private issuances of equity or debt
securities. There can be no assurances that such financings will be available on
terms acceptable to the Company.
