                     Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(1)      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements as of 
March 31, 1998 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 
and for the period January 1, 1993 (commencement of operations) to March 31, 
1998 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to 
Form 10-Q and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally 
accepted accounting principles to be presented for complete financial 
statements. In the opinion of management, such financial information includes 
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered 
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at such date and 
the operating results and cash flows for such periods. Operating results for 
the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of 
the results that may be expected for the entire year. These condensed 
financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with 
the Company's audited annual financial statements for the year ended 
December 31, 1997 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1998.

OVERVIEW

         Transcend Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") develops novel
pharmaceuticals for unmet medical needs, with its initial compounds focusing on
the treatment of diseases associated with oxidative stress and resultant tissue
damage. In the second quarter of 1997, the Company began a Phase III clinical
trial to determine the safety and efficacy of the Company's lead product
candidate, Procysteine(R), in the treatment of acute respiratory distress
syndrome ("ARDS"). In March 1998, the Company suspended the Phase III Clinical
Trial following a recommendation of an independent Safety Monitoring Board. The
Safety Monitoring Board had determined following a review of preliminary
mortality data on a total of 214 patients enrolled through March 18, 1998 that
the incidence of all-cause mortality in patients receiving Procysteine i.v. was
higher than the incidence in patients receiving a placebo. In May 1998, the
Company announced that it was discontinuing the Phase III Clinical Trial because
its preliminary review of the mortality data on the 214 patients enrolled in the
study prior to its suspension uncovered no clear explanation of the lower
mortality observed in the placebo group. The Company intends to conduct a full
review of both the safety and efficacy data to determine whether to resume work
with Procysteine i.v. for the treatment of ARDS and expects to make a
determination concerning the future development of Procysteine in the third
quarter of 1998. If the Company does not resume, or significantly delays, its
work with Procysteine i.v. for the treatment of ARDS, the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standard 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income ("Statement 130"). Statement 130 establishes new
rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components.
Statement 130 requires unrealized gains or losses on the Company's
available-for-sale securities, which prior to adoption were reported separately
in shareholder's equity to be included in other comprehensive income. During the
first quarters of 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income was not materially
different from net income (loss).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998


         The Company earned no revenues in the three-month period ended 
March 31, 1998. In the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, the Company
recognized as revenue a $5.0 million license fee received from BI in exchange
for which the Company granted BI exclusive rights to various patents related to
intravenous Procysteine(R) and which the Company has no obligation to repay.

         The Company's total operating expenses for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were $3.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
Research and development expenses increased to approximately $2.2 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 from approximately $0.5 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1997. The increase was due primarily to the
expenditures associated with the Company's Phase III ARDS trial which commenced
in the first quarter of 1997 and was discontinued in May 1998, including
staffing costs, clinical investigator grants, clinical site monitoring, clinical
supplies and data management expenses ("ARDS Development Expenses"). The Company
expects that ARDS Development Expenses related to the discontinued Phase III
Trial will continue through the third quarter of 1998 as the Company, together
with BI, continues to examine the safety and efficacy data to determine whether
to resume its work with Procysteine i.v. for the treatment of ARDS. In addition,
the Company expects that other research and development expenses will increase
as the Company undertakes additional clinical and preclinical programs. Prior to
the suspension of enrollment in March 1998, the Company had initiated 66
clinical sites, including 10 sites in Europe and enrolled 214 patients in the
Phase III ARDS trial.

         General and administrative expenses decreased to approximately 
$0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from approximately 
$1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997. However, general and
administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1997 included approximately
$0.6 million of non-recurring administration charges associated with the signing
of the BI Agreement and costs associated with the Company's initial public
offering which was completed in July 1997. Excluding these non-recurring
charges, general and administration expenses increased due to higher
compensation expenses and recruiting costs and costs associated with the
transition of the Company's operations from a private entity to a publicly
traded company. As of May 1, 1998 the Company employed 21 full-time staff.

         Other income (expense) for each of the three-month periods ended 
March 31, 1998 and 1997 consists of interest income. Interest income for each 
of the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 was $212,000 and 
$25,000, respectively. The increase in interest income was due to higher 
average cash balances following the Company's initial public offering of 
Common Stock in July 1997.

         For the three-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company
had a net loss of $2.9 million and net income of $3.6 million, respectively. The
net income in the first quarter of 1997 was due to the receipt and recognition
of revenue consisting of a $5.0 million license fee from BI.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $14.5
million at March 31, 1998, compared to $16.8 million at December 31, 1997. These
balances included cash, the use of which is restricted for ARDS Development
Expenses, of approximately $3.6 million and $5.8


                                       8



<PAGE>   9

million, respectively. Pursuant to the BI Agreement entered in February 1997,
the Company must use the BI license fee of $5.0 million and an equity investment
by BI of $5.0 million (received in the Company's initial public offering)
exclusively for ARDS Development Expenses. Since March 1997, the Company has
incurred $8.2 million of ARDS Development Expenses under the BI Agreement (of
which $6.4 million has been paid as of March 31, 1998), including $2.6 million
of ARDS Development Expenses incurred in the three-month period ended March 31,
1998.

         Since its inception through March 31, 1998, the Company has financed
its operations primarily with $30.3 million from the sale of equity securities
and convertible notes, $11.1 million in contract research and license fee
payments, and $1.1 million in interest income.

         The Company expects negative cash flows from operations to continue and
to increase for the foreseeable future.

         If the Company were not to resume its work with Procysteine i.v. for
the treatment of ARDS, the Company's business, financial condition and results
of operations would be adversely affected. Even if the Company does continue its
work with Procysteine i.v. for the treatment of ARDS, the suspension and
discontinuation of the Phase III Clinical Trial is likely to result in a
substantial increase in costs, which would have a material adverse affect on the
business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. There
can be no assurance however, that the Company's estimates of future operating
losses and operating expenses are accurate.

         The Company's actual working capital needs and funding requirements
will depend upon numerous factors, some of which are beyond the Company's
control, including the progress of the external research and development
programs, the magnitude and scope of these activities, the timing, costs and
results of preclinical and clinical testing, the determination as to whether to
resume work with Procysteine i.v. for the treatment of ARDS, the costs of any
acquisitions and/or licensing of technology rights, the timing and costs of
obtaining regulatory approvals, the level of resources that the Company commits
to the development of manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities, the
ability of the Company to establish new and maintain existing collaborative
arrangements with BI and other companies, the technological advances and
activities of competitors, the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting,
maintaining, enforcing and defending patent claims and other intellectual
property rights, and other factors.

         The Company intends to seek additional funding through public or 
private financing, research and development financing, mergers and/or 
acquisitions, collaborative relationships or otherwise. If additional funds are
raised by issuing equity securities, further dilution to stockholders will 
result. Debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants. If 
adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay, scale 
back or eliminate certain of its product development programs, to license to 
others rights to commercialize products or technologies that the Company would 
otherwise seek to develop and commercialize itself or cease operations.
