                                 March 31, 1998

1.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         Description of Business

                  IOMED,  Inc., a Utah corporation  (the  "Company"),  develops,
         manufactures  and  commercializes  controllable  drug delivery  systems
         using proprietary iontophoretic  technology.  Iontophoresis is a method
         of enhancing  and  controlling  the transport of drugs through the skin
         utilizing a low level electrical current.

         Discontinued Operations

                  On  December  31,  1996,  the  Company  sold the assets of its
         Motion   Control   Division,   which  was  engaged  in  the   research,
         development,  manufacture and sale of advanced  myoelectric  prosthetic
         devices. Accordingly, the consolidated statements of operations for the
         nine months ended March 31, 1997,  present the results of operations of
         the Motion Control Division as a discontinued operation.  There were no
         remaining  assets or  liabilities  related to  discontinued  operations
         reflected in the financial statements as of March 31, 1998, or June 30,
         1997.

         Basis of Presentation

                  In the  opinion  of  management,  the  accompanying  condensed
         consolidated   financial   statements   contain  all  normal  recurring
         adjustments  necessary to present fairly the financial  position of the
         Company as of March 31,  1998,  and the results of its  operations  and
         cash flows for the interim  periods ended March 31, 1998, and 1997. The
         operating   results  for  the  interim   periods  are  not  necessarily
         indicative of the results for a full year. These  statements  should be
         read in conjunction with the Company's audited  consolidated  financial
         statements for the year ended June 30, 1997,  included in the Company's
         Registration Statement on Form S-1, dated April 23, 1998.

         Earnings (Loss) Per Share

                  The  Company's  net income  (loss) per share is based upon the
         weighted  average  number  of  common  shares  outstanding  during  the
         periods. Common share equivalents (stock options, warrants, convertible
         preferred  shares  and  convertible  debt),  as  determined  using  the
         treasury  stock method,  have been excluded  from the  computations  in
         those periods where their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect.

2.       Inventories

                  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
         determined using the first-in,  first-out method. Inventories consisted
         of the following at June 30, 1997, and March 31, 1998:

                                         June 30,    March 31,

3.       Discontinued Operations

                  In December  1996,  the Company  sold the assets of its Motion
         Control  Division,  which was  engaged  in the  research,  development,
         manufacture and sale of myoelectric  prosthetic  devices. In connection
         with this  transaction,  the  Company  granted a  worldwide,  exclusive
         license to certain patent rights covering the products  manufactured by
         the division to the purchaser.  Proceeds from the sale, which closed in
         January 1997,  were  $1,000,000  and the Company is entitled to receive
         royalties  on  future  product  sales  of the  purchaser.  The  Company
         recognized  no  significant  gain or loss on the sale.  The  results of
         operations of the Motion  Control  Division prior to its sale have been
         classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying statements of
         operations.  No interest  expense has been  allocated  to  discontinued
         operations  and income taxes have been  allocated  based upon statutory
         rates.  A summary  of the  results  of  discontinued  operations  is as
         follows:

4.       Significant Events

         Reverse Stock Split

                  On November 7, 1997,  pursuant to a vote of the  shareholders,
         the Company  effected a one for 4.8 reverse share split for each common
         and  preferred  share then  outstanding,  and amended and  restated its
         Articles of Incorporation. Among other things, these amendments changed
         the par value of the Company's  common and preferred shares from $0.001
         per share to no par value common and  preferred  shares;  increased the
         number  of  authorized   common  shares  from   40,000,000   shares  to
         100,000,000  shares;  and increased the number of authorized  preferred
         shares from  4,215,618  shares to 10,000,000  shares.  For  comparative
         purposes,  all share amounts in the accompanying  financial  statements
         and related footnotes have been  retroactively  restated to reflect the
         effects of the reverse stock split and the increases in the  authorized
         shares of the Company's common and preferred shares.

         Novartis Exchange Agreement

                  Effective  November  1,  1997,  the  Company  entered  into an
         Exchange  Agreement with Novartis  Pharmaceuticals  Corporation.  Among
         other  things,  the  Exchange  Agreement  provided  for the exchange of
         Novartis' 20% minority interest in Dermion,  the Company's research and
         development  subsidiary,  for 238,541  common shares of the Company and
         warrants to purchase,  under certain  conditions,  through  November 1,
         2002, an additional 18,750 common shares at a price equal to $21.60 per
         share. As a result of this  transaction,  Dermion became a wholly owned
         subsidiary  of the  Company.  In  addition,  the Company  and  Novartis
         amended  their  research  and  development  agreement  to,  among other
         things,  expand IOMED's rights to conduct  research and  development in
         areas  other than in the areas of acute  local  inflammation  and local
         dermal anesthesia.

                                 March 31, 1998

5.       Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncement

                  In 1997,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No.  128-Earnings  Per Share,
         which replaced the  calculation  of primary and fully diluted  earnings
         per share with basic and diluted  earnings  per share.  Unlike  primary
         earnings  per share,  basic  earnings  per share  excludes any dilutive
         effects  of  options,  warrants  and  convertible  securities.  Diluted
         earnings per share is very similar to the previous calculation of fully
         diluted  earnings per share.  All  earnings  per share  amounts for all
         periods have been presented, and where appropriate, restated to conform
         to the SFAS 128 requirements.

                  Earnings (loss) from continuing operations as presented on the
         statement of operations  represents  the numerator  used in calculating
         both  basic and  diluted  earnings  per share.  The shares  used in the
         computation  of basic and  diluted  earnings  per share for all interim
         periods  set  forth  on  the  condensed   consolidated   statements  of
         operations  represent the average  number of common shares  outstanding
         during the  periods.  Due to their  anti-dilutive  effect,  no dilutive
         securities were included in the  computations  of diluted  earnings per
         share in any of the periods presented.

                  At March 31, 1998, the following  securities were outstanding,
         but were not included in the computation of diluted  earnings per share
         due to their anti-dilutive  effect:  options to purchase 339,158 common
         shares  at a  weighted  average  exercise  price  of $4.86  per  share;
         warrants to purchase  169,792 common shares at a weighted average price
         of $18.04 per share; 28,800 redeemable,  convertible Series C preferred
         shares, with a mandatory redemption value of $720,000, convertible on a
         share  for  share  basis  into  common  shares;   and  $16  million  in
         convertible  debt,   including   accrued  interest,   convertible  into
         approximately 2.1 million common shares or preferred shares (see Note 6
         -- Subsequent Events).

6.       Subsequent Events

                  On  April  23,  1998,  the  Company   consummated  an  initial
         registered  public  offering  pursuant  to  which  the  Company  issued
         1,700,000 common shares and raised  approximately $10.5 million, net of
         underwriters'  discounts and estimated expenses of $1.4 million. On May
         27, 1998, the underwriters  exercised a portion of their over-allotment
         option and the Company  issued an additional  150,000 common shares and
         raised approximately $1.0 million, net of underwriters' discounts.

                  In other transactions  related to the initial public offering,
         (i) the Company granted  warrants to purchase  170,000 common shares to
         the  underwriters,  exercisable  after  April 23,  1999,  at an initial
         exercise price of $9.38 per share;  (ii) Elan Corporation plc purchased
         1,206,391  common shares and 893,801  shares of newly created  Series D
         preferred  shares,  at the initial  public  offering price of $7.50 per
         share,  for an aggregate  purchase price of  $15,751,438,  which amount
         equaled  the  amounts,   including  interest,   outstanding  under  the
         Company's notes payable to Elan.  Simultaneously,  the Company used the
         proceeds to repay the notes; (iii) the 28,800 Series C preferred shares
         of the Company which were outstanding immediately prior to the offering
         were automatically  converted,  on a share for share basis, into common
         shares;  and (iv) the Company issued an additional 29,697 common shares
         to Laboratoires Fournier, pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of a
         prior stock purchase agreement between the companies.

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

         The  following  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the  Company's
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere
in this report and with the Company's  Registration  Statement on Form S-1 dated
April 23, 1998. This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations and other parts of this report contain forward-looking
statements,  as defined in section 21E of the  Securities  and  Exchange  Act of
1934,  that involve risks and  uncertainties.  The Company's  actual results may
differ   significantly  from  the  results  discussed  in  the   forward-looking
statements.

Overview

         The Company develops, manufactures and commercializes controllable drug
delivery systems using iontophoretic  technology.  The majority of the Company's
revenues have been generated through the sale of its iontophoretic drug delivery
products in the physical therapy market for use in the delivery of dexamethasone
sodium phosphate and contract research revenues. The Company recently introduced
Numby Stuff(TM),  its local dermal anesthesia product, into the marketplace and,
to date, has not realized  significant  revenue from the sales of such products.
Since its inception,  the Company has generally incurred operating losses and it
expects to incur  additional  operating  losses over the next several years as a
result of anticipated costs associated with a significant increase in internally
funded  research,  development  and clinical  trial  activities  relating to new
applications for its iontophoretic drug delivery technologies,  development of a
dedicated sales force and the consolidation and equipping of its facilities.  As
of March 31, 1998, the Company's  accumulated  deficit was  approximately  $22.2
million. The Company's ability to achieve and sustain  profitability will depend
on its ability to achieve market acceptance and successfully expand sales of its
existing products,  as well as successfully complete the development of, receive
regulatory approvals for, and successfully  manufacture and market, its products
under development, as to which there can be no assurance.

         The Company's results of operations may vary significantly from quarter
to quarter  and  depend,  among  other  factors,  on the  signing of new product
development  agreements,  the timing of contract research revenues and milestone
payments  made by  collaborative  partners,  the  progress of  clinical  trials,
product sales levels and costs associated with the manufacturing  processes. The
timing of the  Company's  research  and  development  revenues may not match the
timing of the associated expenses.  The amount of revenue in any given period is
not necessarily indicative of future revenue.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1998

         Revenues.  Product  sales  increased 18% from $1.7 million in the three
months  ended March 31, 1997 to $2.0 million in the three months ended March 31,
1998.  The  increase  can  be  attributed  to  higher  sales  of  the  Company's
iontophoretic  drug delivery  products for the  treatment of local  inflammatory
conditions resulting from overall growth in this market.

         Contract  research  revenues,  royalties and license fees increased 10%
from  $383,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $420,000 in the three
months ended March 31, 1998.  This  increase can be  attributed to the Company's
receipt of royalty  revenues in the fiscal 1998 interim  period  pursuant to the
sale of its Motion Control division.

         Costs of Products  Sold.  Costs of  products  sold  increased  21% from
$797,000  in the three  months  ended  March 31,  1997 to  $968,000 in the three
months  ended March 31,  1998,  reflecting  increased  material  and labor costs
associated  with higher unit sales volumes as well as  engineering,  tooling and
other non-recurring costs associated with new commercial product introductions.

         Research and Development Expense. Research and development expenditures
increased 10% from $346,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $382,000
in the three months ended March 31, 1998. This increase reflects  differences in
the timing of certain  expenditures on internally  financed product  development
projects of the Company.

         Selling,  General and  Administrative  Expenses.  Selling,  general and
administrative  expenses  increased 56%, from $925,000 in the three months ended
March 31, 1997 to $1.4 million in the three  months  ended March 31,  1998.  The
increase in the current  period can be attributed  primarily to the  recruiting,
personnel  and other sales and  marketing  costs  associated  with the Company's
investment in the market  introduction of Numby Stuff. In addition,  the Company
realized increased costs associated with the maintenance of the patent portfolio
acquired from Elan.

         Non-Recurring  Charges. In March 1997, the Company entered into certain
agreements with Elan Corporation plc. (the "Elan Agreements"), pursuant to which
the  Company  acquired  certain  rights  to  Elan's   in-process   research  and
development  relating  to  iontophoretic  drug  delivery,  including  issued and
pending  United  States and foreign  patents,  know-how and clinical  data. As a
result of this  transaction,  the  Company  recorded a  non-recurring  charge of
approximately $15.1 million.

         Other Costs and Expenses. Interest expense increased to $281,000 in the
three months  ended March 31,  1998.  This  increase  can be  attributed  to the
recognition  of non-cash  interest  expense on $15.0  million in notes issued to
Elan  in  connection  with  the  Elan  Agreements.  Interest  income  and  other
miscellaneous  income was  $92,000 in the three  months  ended  March 31,  1997,
compared to $73,000 in the three months ended March 31, 1998,  reflecting higher
interest earnings on invested cash balances during the prior period.

         The Company has  substantial  net operating loss  carryforwards  which,
under the current  "change of ownership"  rules of the Internal  Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, may be subject to substantial annual limitation.  Income taxes
for the three  months  ended March 31,  1997,  reflect the  Company's  effective
income tax rate for fiscal 1997.  No income tax expense was  recognized  for the
three months ended March 31, 1998, which reflects  management's  estimate of the
Company's fiscal 1998 tax position.

         Income (loss) from Continuing Operations. The Company recognized a loss
from continuing  operations of $14.9 million in the three months ended March 31,
1997,  compared to a loss from  continuing  operations  of $550,000 in the three
months ended March 31, 1998.  The loss in the fiscal 1997 interim  period can be
attributed  to  the  non-recurring   charge  resulting  from  the  write-off  of
in-process  research and development the Company acquired from Elan. The loss in
the fiscal 1998  interim  period can be  primarily  attributed  to the  non-cash
interest charges on the Elan  indebtedness  and the Company's  investment in the
sales  and  marketing  of  Numby  Stuff,  which,  to  date,  has  not  generated
significant revenues.
<PAGE>
Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1998

         Revenues.  Product  sales  increased  14% from $5.3 million in the nine
months ended March 31, 1997,  to $6.1 million in the nine months ended March 31,
1998.  The  increase  can  be  attributed  to  higher  sales  of  the  Company's
iontophoretic  drug delivery  products for the  treatment of local  inflammatory
conditions resulting from overall growth in this market.

         Contract  research  revenues,  royalties and license fees  decreased 7%
from $1.4 million in the nine months  ended March 31,  1997,  to $1.3 million in
the nine months ended March 31, 1998.  Contract  revenues during the nine months
ended March 31, 1997,  included a milestone payment from Novartis and during the
nine months ended March 31,  1998,  included  the  Company's  receipt of royalty
revenues pursuant to the sale of its Motion Control division.

         Costs of Products Sold.  Costs of products sold increased 12% from $2.4
million in the nine months  ended March 31,  1997,  to $2.7  million in the nine
months  ended March 31,  1998,  reflecting  increased  material  and labor costs
associated  with higher unit sales  volumes.  Costs of products  sold  decreased
slightly  as a percent of product  sales due to  productivity  gains  which were
offset,  in part,  by the  engineering,  tooling and other  non-recurring  costs
incurred in connection with new commercial product introductions.

         Research and Development Expense. Research and development expenditures
were  approximately  $1.1  million in both the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
and March 31, 1998. The fiscal 1998 interim period includes a higher  proportion
of  expenditures  on internally  financed  product  development  projects of the
Company.

         Selling,  General and  Administrative  Expenses.  Selling,  general and
administrative  expenses  increased  45%,  from $2.5  million in the nine months
ended March 31,  1997,  to $3.6 million in the nine months ended March 31, 1998.
This increase can be attributed primarily to the recruiting, personnel and other
sales and marketing costs associated with the Company's investment in the market
introduction of Numby Stuff. In addition,  the Company realized  increased costs
associated  with the  maintenance  and  prosecution  of the patent  portfolio it
acquired from Elan.

         Non-Recurring Charges. In March 1997, the Company entered into the Elan
Agreements  pursuant  to which the  Company  acquired  certain  rights to Elan's
in-process  research and development  relating to  iontophoretic  drug delivery,
including  issued and pending  United States and foreign  patents,  know-how and
clinical  data.  As a  result  of  this  transaction,  the  Company  recorded  a
non-recurring charge of approximately $15.1 million.

         Other Costs and Expenses. Interest expense increased from $2,000 in the
nine months ended March 31, 1997, to $855,000 in the nine months ended March 31,
1998.  This increase can be attributed to the  recognition of non-cash  interest
expense on $15.0  million in notes  issued to Elan in  connection  with the Elan
Agreements.  Interest income and other miscellaneous  income was $218,000 in the
nine months ended March 31, 1997,  compared to $241,000 in the nine months ended
March 31, 1998,  reflecting  higher interest  earnings on invested cash balances
during the current interim period.

         The Company has  substantial  net operating loss  carryforwards  which,
under the current  "change of ownership"  rules of the Internal  Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, may be subject to substantial annual limitation.  Income taxes
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, reflect the Company's effective income
tax rate for fiscal  1997.  No income tax  expense was  recognized  for the nine
months  ended  March 31,  1998,  which  reflects  management's  estimate  of the
Company's fiscal 1998 tax position.

         Income  (loss) from  Continuing  Operations.  The  Company's  loss from
continuing  operations of $14.2 million in the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
compares  to a loss from  continuing  operations  of $688,000 in the nine months
ended  March  31,  1998.  The loss in the  fiscal  1997  interim  period  can be
primarily attributed to the non-recurring charge resulting from the write-off of
in-process  research and development  acquired from Elan. The loss in the fiscal
1998 interim  period can be attributed to the non-cash  interest  charges on the
Elan  indebtedness  and the  Company's  investment in the sales and marketing of
Numby Stuff, which, to date, has not generated significant revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Prior to July 1996, the Company funded its operating  losses  primarily
through private equity financing,  convertible debt arrangements,  capital lease
financing,  and collateralized bank loans. Beginning in July 1996, the Company's
operating and research  activities have been internally  funded,  primarily as a
result of the research and development revenues and license fees the Company has
received from Novartis.

         As of March  31,  1998,  the  Company  had  cash  and cash  equivalents
totaling approximately $4.8 million. Cash in excess of immediate requirements is
invested in a manner  which is intended to maximize  liquidity  and return while
minimizing  investment  risk,  and,  whenever  possible,  the  Company  seeks to
minimize the potential effects of concentration of credit risk.

         In the nine month period ended March 31,  1997,  the Company  generated
$707,000  in  cash  from  operating  activities,  compared  to a use of  cash of
approximately  $297,000 in the nine month  period  ended March 31,  1998.  After
adjusting both periods for  significant  non-cash  charges  relating to the Elan
transactions,  the decrease in cash flow can be  attributed to the increased net
loss resulting from the Company's investment in the sales and marketing of Numby
Stuff and to changes in its net working capital.

         Historically,  the Company's operations have not been capital intensive
and,  therefore,  its  investment in property,  plant and  equipment  during the
interim periods  presented has not been  significant.  The Company  anticipates,
however,  that its  investment in facilities  and equipment will increase in the
future,   due  to  the  Company's  desire  to  consolidate  its   manufacturing,
administrative and research and development  facilities and the need to increase
the automation of its electrode  manufacturing processes to meet higher expected
sales  volumes.  The Company's  expenditures  for  equipment and furniture  were
$135,000 and $408,000 for the nine month periods ended March 31, 1997, and 1998,
respectively.

         During the nine months  ended March 31, 1998,  the Company  purchased a
license to certain iontophoretic drug delivery technology at a cost of $214,000,
including  transaction  expenses,  and satisfied a $180,000 mandatory redemption
requirement  on its Series C  preferred  shares.  In  addition,  during the same
interim  period the Company  recorded  over  $763,000 in costs  associated  with
certain capital transactions, including costs associated with the initial public
offering.  These costs, of which over $418,000 were paid in cash as of March 31,
1998,  have been deferred and are included in other assets at March 31, 1998. At
the  completion of the initial public  offering,  these deferred costs and other
associated costs were offset against the proceeds of the offering.

         During the fiscal 1997 interim period,  the Company generated  $255,000
in cash from the private  placement of its common shares and satisfied a $70,000
mandatory redemption requirement on its Series A preferred shares.

         The Company expects to continue to incur  substantial  costs associated
with  the  expansion  of its  research  and  development  activities,  including
clinical trials,  development of a dedicated sales force and  consolidating  and
equipping its facilities.  The Company  anticipates that the net proceeds of its
initial public offering (described below),  together with existing cash balances
and cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund the operations of
the Company for  approximately the next 15 months.  However,  the Company may be
required  or may  elect  to raise  additional  capital  before  that  time.  The
Company's actual capital requirements will depend on many factors, some of which
are outside of the Company's control.

Initial Public Offering

         On April 23, 1998, the Company consummated an initial registered public
offering of its common shares,  pursuant to which the Company  issued  1,700,000
common  shares and raised  approximately  $10.5  million,  net of  underwriters'
discounts and estimated expenses of approximately $1.4 million. On May 27, 1998,
the  underwriters  exercised  a portion of their  over-allotment  option and the
Company issued an additional 150,000 common shares and raised approximately $1.0
million, net of underwriters' discounts.

         In other transactions  related to the initial public offering,  (i) the
Company granted warrants to purchase 170,000 common shares to the  underwriters,
exercisable  after April 23,  1999,  at an initial  exercise  price of $9.38 per
share;  (ii) Elan Corporation plc purchased  1,206,391 common shares and 893,801
Series D preferred  shares at the  initial  public  offering  price of $7.50 per
share, for an aggregate purchase price of $15,751,438,  which amount equaled the
amounts,  including interest, then outstanding under the Company's notes payable
to Elan. Simultaneously, the Company used the proceeds to repay the notes; (iii)
the 28,800  Series C  preferred  shares of the  Company  which were  outstanding
immediately prior to the offering were automatically  converted,  on a share for
share basis, into common shares and (iv) the Company issued an additional 29,697
common shares to Laboratoires Fournier, pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions
of a prior stock purchase agreement between the companies.

Discontinued Operations

         Prior  to  January   1997,   the  Company   provided   state-of-the-art
prosthetics  products to amputees  through its Motion Control  division.  Motion
Control's principal products were the Utah Artificial Arm and the ProControl II,
advanced myoelectric prostheses for above and below the elbow amputees.
      In  December  1996,  the  Company  sold the assets of the  Motion  Control
division for $1.0  million and granted the  purchaser  an  exclusive,  worldwide
license  and  sublicense  to  the  patents,   trademarks,   know-how  and  other
intellectual  property of the Company  relating to the Motion Control  products.
Under the terms of that sublicense  agreement,  the Company will receive license
fees and royalties on future sales of the Motion Control  products.  The Company
recognized  no  significant  gain or loss on the  sale.  Where  applicable,  the
results of operations of the Motion Control division, exclusive of any corporate
allocations,   are  reported  as   discontinued   operations  in  the  condensed
consolidated statements of operations.

Impact of Year 2000

         Many computer  systems  experience  problems  handling dates beyond the
year 1999. The Company  continues to evaluate its computer systems and believes,
based upon  representations  from its  software  suppliers,  that its  operating
systems are  substantially  year 2000  compliant.  In  addition,  the Company is
implementing  validation procedures designed to evaluate the year 2000 exposures
of its  significant  suppliers  and other  vendors  whose systems may impact the
Company's operations.
