NOTE 1 - THE REORGANIZATION

    On April 23, 1998, D&F Industries ("D&F," the predecessor), Raven d/b/a
Omni-Pak Industries ("Omni-Pak"), Dynamic Products Inc. ("Dynamic") and West
Coast Sales ("West Coast") entered into a reorganization agreement pursuant to
which (a) D&F changed its name to Global Health Sciences, Inc., (b) Global
Health Sciences, Inc. formed a new subsidiary, Global Health Sub, Inc. ("Global
Sub"), (c) Global Sub formed four new subsidiaries named D&F Industries, Inc.
("D&F Sub"), Raven Sub, Inc. ("Omni-Pak Merger Sub"), New West Coast Sales, Inc.
("West Coast Merger Sub") and Dynamic Sub, Inc. ("Dynamic Merger Sub"), (d)
Global Health Sciences, Inc. transferred to D&F Sub all of its assets and
liabilities except for its obligation under the 11% Senior Notes due 2008 (the
"Notes") and the common stock of Global Sub, (e) Global Health Sciences, Inc.
through Global Sub acquired Omni-Pak, Dynamic and West Coast (together referred
to as Omni-Pak and Affiliates) from their respective shareholders for
approximately $137.9 million in cash and expenses (the "Acquisition"), in
transactions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting pursuant to
the mergers of Omni-Pak Merger Sub and Omni-Pak (with Omni-Pak as the surviving
corporation), Dynamic Merger Sub and Dynamic (with Dynamic as the surviving
corporation), and West Coast Sub and West Coast (with West Coast as the
surviving corporation) and (f) the shareholders of Global Health Sciences, Inc.
received approximately $58.7 million in cash to repurchase approximately 543,000
outstanding shares from its stockholders (the "Recapitalization"). The above
transactions were financed principally through the sale of $225 million in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes, the net proceeds of which were
approximately $210.8 million. The transactions described above are referred to
as the "Reorganization." A complete description of the above transactions is
contained within the Company's S-4 Registration Statement dated August 12, 1998.
In connection with the Reorganization, BGA Consulting was paid a fee of $2.4
million by the D&F and the Omni-Pak and Affiliate stockholders. The Company's
Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Paul Buxbaum, is the President of BGA Consulting.

    The financial statements presented for the 1997 periods are those of D&F.
The statement of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended
September 30, 1998, include those of D&F through April 23, 1998, the date of the
Reorganization and those of Global Health Sciences, Inc. (which include the
operations of D&F and Omni-Pak and Affiliates), subsequent to April 23, 1998.
The following is summarized pro forma operating results assuming that the
Reorganization had occurred as of the beginning of the periods presented,
including the effect of the Acquisition, the Recapitalization and the issuance
of the Notes:

                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - THE REORGANIZATION (continued)

    Acquisition - The Acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting. The purchase price consists of $136.9 million of cash and
$1 million of estimated transaction costs and is being allocated to Omni-Pak and
Affiliates assets and liabilities based on their respective values as of the
closing date. Although the final allocation has not been determined, it is
expected that substantially all of the excess of purchase price over the
approximate $1.4 million of net asset value at the closing date, will be
allocated to customer contracts, customer lists, goodwill and other intangibles.

    The Notes - As described above, the Company issued $225 million of Notes due
2008, the net proceeds of which were approximately $210.8 million. Expenses
related to the issuance of the Notes were approximately $7.7 million. The stated
interest rate on the Notes is 11%. The Notes were issued at a discount of $6,608
million for an effective rate of approximately 11.5%. The indenture places
certain limitations on, among other things, incurrence of additional debt,
acquisitions, investments and dividends.

    Acquisition Facility - Effective April 23, 1998, the Company entered into a
new credit agreement (the "Acquisition Facility"), which provides for borrowings
of up to $50 million under a line of credit through April 2003, of which no more
than $10 million is available for working capital and general corporate
purposes. Under the Acquisition Facility, borrowings bear interest at the
Company's election either at the bank's prime rate plus certain margins, which
range from 75 to 150 basis points or at LIBOR plus certain margins, which range
from 200 to 275 basis points. The Acquisition Facility requires the Company to
maintain consolidated financial ratios related to leverage, consolidated EBITDA,
cash interest coverage and fixed charge coverage. In addition, the Acquisition
Facility limits the amount of annual capital expenditures and cash dividends.
Also, the Acquisition Facility places certain limitations on the ability of the
Subsidiary Guarantors to make distributions to Global Health Sciences Inc.,
although distributions to the Company to cover scheduled principal and interest
payments on the Notes are expressly permitted. There was no borrowing under the
Acquisition Facility at September 30, 1998.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    General - The condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the
periods ended September 30, 1998, include the accounts of Global Health
Sciences, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together referred to herein as
the "Company"). Global Health Sciences, Inc. is a holding Company with no
independent operations other than its investments in its subsidiaries,
principally D&F and Omni-Pak and Affiliates. Pursuant to the indenture, Global
Health Sciences, Inc.'s subsidiaries (the "Subsidiary Guarantors"), have jointly
and severally guaranteed the Notes on a full and unconditional basis. Separate
financial statements related to the Subsidiary Guarantors are not included
herein, as the management of Global Health Sciences, Inc. has determined that
the separate financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors are not material
to investors. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

    Interim Period Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the interim periods ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
1998.

NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES

Inventories at September 30, 1998 consist of the following (amounts in
thousands):

NOTE 4 - INTANGIBLES AND OTHER ASSETS

Other assets at September 30, 1998 consist of the following (amounts in
thousands):

<TABLE>

<S>                                        <C>     
Goodwill and other intangibles, net        $127,511
Deferred financing costs, net                 7,571
                                          -----------
                                           $135,082
                                          ------------
                                          ------------

</TABLE>

Accumulated amortization of goodwill and other intangibles was $8,973,000, and
accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs was $359,000.

During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Company continued to perform a
thorough analysis to determine the components of the purchase price and their
respective lives. Although the analysis is still incomplete, the Company
believes that a significant component of the purchase price will be allocated to
customer contracts and customer lists. Such assets are expected to have a
composite life of five years.

In addition, the Company has been assessing the appropriate amortization period
for goodwill and has determined that the customer concentration creates a lack
of certainty about the Company's ability to sustain its revenue stream beyond
five years. The Company believes that an amortization period of five years for
goodwill is appropriate and began using a five-year period for amortization of
goodwill, effective July 1, 1998. The effect of the change in the quarter was to
increase amortization expense by $3,294,000.

      Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

NOTE 5 - NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In September 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 130 establishes new standards for reporting and
displaying comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. The
statement, which the Company adopted in the first quarter of 1998, establishes
standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general purpose financial statements. There are no adjustments
between net income and comprehensive income for the periods presented.

In September 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosure about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The Company is required to
adopt this statement as of December 31, 1998. SFAS No. 131 requires disclosure
of certain information regarding operating segments, products and services,
geographic areas of operations and major customers. The Company has not analyzed
the impact of adopting this statement.

In September 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement will be effective January 1,
2000. The Company has not yet analyzed the impact of adopting the statement.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS & CONTIGENCIES

On March 31, 1998, the Company was named as a defendant in an action originally
filed on September 13, 1997 by John W. Rowles against Mr. Mark Hughes, Herbalife
and an Herbalife distributor. The plaintiff alleges that a product manufactured
by the Company for Herbalife was defective and unsafe for its intended use and
caused harm to the plaintiff. The plaintiff is claiming an unspecified amount of
damages, including a claim for punitive damages. The lawsuit is in its
preliminary stages of discovery and an estimate of the range of loss, if any,
cannot be made at this time. The Company believes, however, that liability, if
any is incurred, will not be material to the Company's results of operations or
financial condition. In addition, the Company has appropriate product liability
insurance.

NOTE 7  - REPURCHASE OF COMMON SHARES

In late September 1998, the Company repurchased 36,767 shares of its common
stock for $3.9 million in cash.

NOTE 8  - ACQUISITIONS

In August 1998 the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent to
acquire certain assets of another manufacturer of dietary and nutritional
supplement products. Negotiations for this transaction continue. In addition, in
October 1998 the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire
a supplier of raw materials to the Company and other manufacturers. Both
acquisitions are subject to, among other conditions, satisfactory completion of
the Company's due diligence and the execution of definitive agreements. There
can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be signed with either
company or if either acquisition will be completed. However, the Company hopes
to close the transactions by year end.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

    RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Prior to its Reorganization Global Health Sciences Inc.'s (the "Company")
operations were conducted by four subchapter S corporations: D&F Industries
("D&F"), Raven d/b/a Omni-Pak Industries, Dynamic Industries and West Coast
Sales (Omni-Pak and Affiliates). Together these companies are one of the world's
leading developers and custom manufacturers of dietary and nutritional
supplements. These companies develop specialty products for branded distribution
companies, branded retailers, television marketing companies and network
marketing organizations who then distribute such products throughout the world.
These companies were reorganized in (the "Reorganization") to consolidate
related and complementary business activities under one holding company, Global
Health Sciences, Inc. (see note 1 to the financial statements). These companies
(together the "Combined Companies") historically operated under common
management and had a high degree of common ownership, customers and systems,
including similar accounting and financial reporting systems. As subchapter S
corporations, all federal and state income taxes (other than a minimum state
income tax of 1.5%) for each of such corporations are paid directly by the
shareholders. The Company makes quarterly distributions to its shareholders in
order for such shareholders to pay their state and federal income taxes. In
1997, the effective income tax rate for the Company's shareholders was
approximately 45%. The Company has historically distributed, and intends to
continue to distribute, as a dividend to its shareholders amounts sufficient for
the shareholders to pay their required income taxes.

The Combined Company's historical growth in sales and EBITDA has been primarily
attributable to increased sales to Herbalife, the Combined Company's largest
customer. Sales to Herbalife have increased from approximately $70. 5 million in
fiscal year 1995, representing approximately 83% of the Combined Company's sales
in that year, to approximately $137.6 million in fiscal year 1997, representing
approximately 76% of the Combined Company's sales in that year. Due to the
significant percentage of the Combined Company's sales attributable to
Herbalife, fluctuations in Herbalife's inventory levels or inaccurate sales
forecasting by Herbalife have had adverse effects on Combined Company sales in
the past and could have adverse effects in the future. Effective January 1998,
the Combined Company and Herbalife entered into three new three-year supply
agreements. These agreements, among other items, provide prices discounted from
the previous arrangements, (ii) allow Herbalife to purchase certain products
from manufacturers other than the Combined Company, subject to minimum purchase
requirements, and (iii) a right of termination without prior consent if Mr.
Marconi ceases to own more than 50% of the capital stock of the Company or is no
longer an executive officer of the Company and responsible for the day to day
operations. The Combined Company's sales to Herbalife for the Nine months ended
September 30, 1998 were approximately $84.1 million or 61% of total sales.

The Company's cost of sales consists primarily of labor costs, materials and
manufacturing overhead. The Company's selling, general and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries and wages, sales commissions,
professional fees and rent. The Company does not anticipate that, as a
percentage of sales, future selling, general and administrative expenses
incurred in connection with implementing its growth strategy will be materially
different from historical percentages. There can be no assurance, however, in
this regard.

Results of Operations

The following tables summarize historical operating results for Global Health
Sciences, Inc. (formerly D&F Industries Inc.) and display supplemental operating
results for Omni-Pak and Affiliates for the periods prior to their acquisition
on April 23, 1998, as well as supplemental combined operating results for the
periods presented. In addition, supplemental sales and gross profit information
is being presented for Global Health's operating subsidiaries D&F Industries,
and Omni-Pak Industries and Affiliates. Management believes that the
supplemental information is necessary for meaningful comparisons of period - to
- - period operating results as such information is representative of the
Company's underlying business and cash flows. As discussed herein, the Combined

(1)  Combined operating results are shown net of eliminating entries.

(2)  EBITDA is defined as net income before interest income (expense), income 
     taxes and depreciation and amortization. Management believes that EBITDA 
     and EBITDA margin are measures commonly used by analysts and investors to
     determined a company's ability to service and incur debt. Accordingly, this
     information has been presented to permit a more complete analysis. However,
     EBITDA as reported may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used
     by other companies. EBITDA margin is computed by dividing EBITDA by sales.
     EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for net income or cash flow
     data prepared in accordance with general accepted accounting principles or
     as a measure of profitability or liquidity.

                        Supplemental Combined Information
                             (Amounts in thousands)


Quarter Ended September 30, 1998 Compared to Quarter Ended September 30, 1997

    Sales. In the third quarter of 1998, sales decreased by $2.8 million or
6.2%, to $42.5 million compared to $45.3 million in the third quarter of 1997.
Combined Company sales to Herbalife were $25.0 million in the third quarter of
1998 as compared to $36.7 million in the third quarter of 1997. Sales to the
Combined Company's second largest customer, EAS, continue to grow with EAS'
continued growth.

    Cost of sales and gross profit. Combined Company cost of sales increased by
$1.7 million, or 6.0%, to $30.1 million in the third quarter of 1998 compared to
$28.4 million in the third quarter of 1997. Cost of sales as a percentage of
sales increased to 70.8% in the third quarter of 1998 compared to 62.8% in the
third quarter of 1997, thereby decreasing the gross margin in the third quarter
of 1998 to 29.2% from 37.2% in the third quarter of 1997. The reduction in gross
margin principally was primarily due to price reductions given to Herbalife as a
result of the new supply agreements. The balance of the margin decline resulted
from changes in the Company's business mix.

    Selling, general, and administrative expenses. Combined Company selling,
general and administrative expenses, excluding amortization of goodwill and
other intangibles of $6.7 million in 1998, increased by $0.3 million to $3.5
million in the third quarter of 1998 compared to $3.2 million in the third
quarter of 1997. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses (excluding amortization of goodwill and other intangibles) increased by
1.2% to 8.2% in the third quarter of 1998 as compared to 7.0% in the third
quarter of 1997.

    Net income. Combined Company net income decreased by $17.8 million to a net
loss of $4.3 million in the third quarter of 1998 compared to $13.5 million in
the third quarter of 1997. This decrease resulted primarily from a $4.4 million
decrease in gross margin, a $6.7 million increase in goodwill and other
intangibles amortization expense and $6.6 million increase in interest expense.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30,
1997

    Sales. In the first nine months of 1998, sales increased by $6.2 million or
4.7%, to $137.2 million compared to $131.0 million in the first nine months of
1997. Combined Company sales to Herbalife were $84.1 million in the first nine
months of 1998, as compared to $98.6 million in the first nine months of 1997.
Sales to the Combined Company's second largest customer, EAS, continue to grow
with EAS' continued growth.

    Cost of sales and gross profit. Combined Company cost of sales increased by
$10.9 million, or 12.9%, to $95.1 million in the first nine months of 1998
compared to $84.2 million in the first nine months of 1997. Cost of sales as a
percentage of sales increased to 69.3% in the first nine months of 1998 compared
to 64.3% in the first nine months of 1997, thereby decreasing the gross margin
in the first nine months of 1998 to 30.7% from 35.7% in the first nine months of
1997. The reduction in gross margin was primarily due to price reductions given
to Herbalife as a result of the new supply agreements.

    Selling, general, and administrative expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses, for the Combined Company, excluding amortization of
goodwill and other intangibles of $9.0 million in 1998, increased by $0.6
million to $10.0 million in the first nine months of 1998 compared to $9.4
million in the first nine months of 1997. As a percentage of sales, selling,
general and administrative expenses (excluding amortization of goodwill and
other intangibles) remained relatively constant at 7.3% compared to 7.2% in the
first nine months of 1997.

    Net income. Combined Company net income decreased by $25.5 million to $11.5
million in the first nine months of 1998 compared to $37.0 million in the first
nine months of 1997. This decrease resulted primarily from a $4.7 million
decrease in gross margin, a $9.0 million increase in goodwill and other
intangibles amortization expenses and a $11.4 million increase in interest
expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $22.8 million at September 30, 1998 compared to
$3.8 million ($9.0 million for the Combined Company) at December 31, 1997.

Cash provided by operating activities for the periods ended September 30, 1998
and September 30, 1997 were $22.3 million and $16.1 million, respectively. The
increase is primarily the result of an increase in accounts payable of $2.3
million and an increase in accrued interest payable of $10.9. The major
operating uses for these periods resulted from changes in accounts receivable,
inventories, prepaid expenses and other current assets.

Cash used in investing activities for the period ended September 30, 1998 was
$137.0 million as a result of the purchase of Omni-Pak and Affiliates (see Note
2 to the Condensed Combined Financial Statements) and purchases of property and
equipment of $1.8 million.

Cash provided by financing activities for the period ended September 30, 1998
was $133.7 million. The cash was provided by the issuance of the senior debt of
$218.5 million. The primary uses of cash included the repurchase of
approximately 580,000 shares of the Company for $62.6 million, dividends of
$14.1 million and debt issuance costs in connection with the issuance of the
Notes of $7.7 million. Dividends paid by the Company were $14.1 million through
September 1998. The Company has elected S Corporation status for federal and
state tax purpose, and other than the 1.5% state tax, income tax is paid by its
shareholders. The Company distributes cash dividends to shareholders to pay
federal and state taxes.

In addition, the Company has been assessing the appropriate amortization period
for goodwill and has determined that the customer concentration creates a lack
of certainty about the Company's ability to sustain its revenue stream beyond
five years. The Company believes that an amortization period of five years for
goodwill is appropriate and began using a five-year period for amortization of
goodwill, effective July 1, 1998. The effect of the change in the quarter was to
increase amortization expense by $3,294,000.

The Company signed a ten-year lease for a new manufacturing facility in Anaheim,
California. The facility is 300,000 square feet with an annual rental of
$1,250,000.

In August 1998 the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent to
acquire certain assets of another manufacturer of dietary and nutritional
supplement products. Negotiations for this transaction continue. In addition, in
October 1998 the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire
a supplier of raw materials to the Company and other manufacturers. Both
acquisitions are subject to, among other conditions, satisfactory completion of
the Company's due diligence and the execution of definitive agreements. There
can be no assurance that definitive agreements will be signed with either
company or if either acquisition will be completed. However, the Company hopes
to close the transactions by year end.

As described above, the Company issued $225 million of Notes due 2008, the net
proceeds of which were approximately $210.8 million. Expenses related to the
issuance of the Notes were approximately $7.7 million. The stated interest rate
on the Notes is 11%. The Notes were issued at a discount of $6.6 million for an
effective rate of approximately 11.5%. The indenture places certain limitations
on incurrence of additional debt, acquisitions, investments and dividends.
Effective April 23, 1998 the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the
"Acquisition Facility"), which provides for borrowings of up to $50 million
under a line of credit through April 2003, of which no more than $10 million is
available for working capital and general corporate purposes. Under the
Acquisition Facility, borrowings bear interest at the Company's election either
at the bank's prime rate plus certain margins, which range from 75 to 150 basis
points or at LIBOR plus certain margins, which range from 200 to 275 basis
points. The Acquisition Facility requires the Company to maintain financial
ratios related to leverage, consolidated EBITDA, cash interest coverage and
fixed charge coverage. In addition, the Acquisition Facility limits the amount
of annual capital expenditures and cash dividends. Also, the Acquisition
Facility places certain limitations on the ability of the Subsidiary Guarantors,
D&F Industries Inc. ("D&F") and Raven d/b/a Omni- Pak , West Coast Sales and
Dynamic Inc. ("Omni-Pak and Affiliates"), to make distributions to Global Health
Sciences Inc. ("the Company"), although distributions to the Company to cover
scheduled principal and interest payments on the Notes are expressly permitted.

The Company is in the process of replacing its computer software applications
and systems. The new systems will accommodate the "year 2000" dating changes
necessary to permit correct recording of year dates for 2000 and later years.
The cost of the new systems is expected to approximate $1 million. The Company
believes that it will be able to achieve compliance by the end of 1999, and does
not currently anticipate any material disruption of its operations as the result
of any failure by the Company to be in compliance. The Company does not
currently have any information concerning the compliance status of its
suppliers. Failure by the Company's suppliers to be in compliance could have a
material adverse effect to the Company.

Statements which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements 
intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the 
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking 
statements are included under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of 
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere herein regarding 
Year 2000 compliance and its effects, if any, if the Company is unable to 
achieve such compliance and the Company's operations and financial position. 
In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the 
use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," 
"estimate," "anticipate," "believe," or "continue," or the negative thereof 
or variations thereon or similar terminology. All such forward-looking 
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause 
actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the relevant 
forward-looking statement, including, with respect to Year 2000 compliance, 
if the cost of compliance exceeds our estimates or if the failure of the 
Company's suppliers to be Year 2000 compliant results in an adverse effect on 
the Company's operations. Although the Company believes that the expectations 
reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable at this time, it 
can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         On March 31, 1998, the Company was named as a defendant in an action
         originally filed on September 13, 1997 by John W. Rowles against Mr.
         Mark Hughes, Herbalife and an Herbalife distributor. The plaintiff
         alleges that a product manufactured by the Company for Herbalife was
         defective and unsafe for its intended use and caused harm to the
         plaintiff. The plaintiff is claiming an unspecified amount of damages,
         including a claim for punitive damages. The lawsuit is in its
         preliminary stages of discovery and an estimate of the range of loss,
         if any, cannot be made at this time. The Company believes, however,
         that liability, if any is incurred, will not be material to the
         Company's results of operations or financial condition. In addition,
         the Company has approximately $2 million in available product liability
         insurance.
