              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


     1. Basis of Presentation

     The interim information contained in this report is unaudited but, in
management's opinion, includes all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a
fair presentation of results for the periods presented. Interim results may not
be indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 included
in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if
any, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
materially from those estimates.

     2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." SAB 101 summarizes certain areas in applying generally accepted
accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. In March
2000, the SEC issued SAB101A to defer for one quarter the effective date of
implementation of SAB101 and in June 2000, the SEC issued SAB101B which further
deferred implementation for two more quarters, with earlier application
encouraged. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SAB 101 as it
relates to the Company's revenue recognition policy. In June 1998, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." XOMA is required to adopt SFAS 133 for the year ending December 31,
2002. Because the Company currently holds no derivative financial instruments
and does not currently engage in hedging activities, adoption of SFAS 133 is
expected to have no material impact on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.

     In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for
Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," which provides guidance on
several implementation issues related to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25 (APB 25). The most significant are clarification of the definition of
employee for purposes of applying APB 25 and the accounting for options that
have been repriced. Under the interpretation, the employer-employee relationship
would be based on case law and Internal Revenue Service


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

regulations. The FASB granted an exception to this definition for outside
directors. Under the interpretation, repriced options effectively change the
terms of the plan, which would make it a variable plan subject to compensation
expense. The impact of the interpretation on the Company's position and results
of operations is not expected to be material.

     3. Accrued Liabilities

     Accrued liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

     4. Private Placement

     In February 2000, the company issued 6,145,000 common shares for net
proceeds of $29.0 million. The Company also issued five-year warrants to
purchase a total of up to 250,000 common shares for $5.00 per share to its
placement agents in this transaction. These warrants were exercisable upon
issuance and expire in February 2005.

     In June 2000, the Company issued 50,000 common shares to third parties. The
net proceeds of $0.2 million were applied against the Company's convertible
subordinated notes to Genentech, Inc.

     5. Comprehensive Loss

     Comprehensive loss includes certain changes in equity that are excluded
from net loss. Specifically, unrealized holding gains and losses in available
for sale investments, which were reported separately in shareholders' equity,
are included in accumulated other

</TABLE>

     5. Net Loss Per Common Share

     Basic and diluted net loss per common share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standard No. 128. Common share equivalents were not
included because they are antidilutive.

     7. FDA Meeting

     In an April meeting with members of the U.S Food and Drug Administration
(FDA), representatives from XOMA and its licensee, the Hyland Immuno Division of
Baxter Healthcare Corporation, discussed results from Phase III trail that
tested NEUPREX(R) (rBPI21) in pediatric patients with severe meningococcemia.
Senior representatives of the FDA indicated that the data presented were not
sufficient to support the filing of biologics license application (BLA) at this
time. XOMA and Baxter are therefore examining ways to supply the additional data
necessary to proceed with the filing. Because of this event, the filing of a BLA
will be delayed, but by how long is not known at this time.

     8. Subsequent Event

     In July 2000, the Company issued 200,000 common shares to third parties.
The net proceeds of $1.3 million were applied against the Company's convertible
subordinated notes to Genentech.

<PAGE>


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


Results of Operations:

Revenues in the second quarter of 2000 were $2.3 million as compared to $0.5
million in the second quarter of 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000,
revenues were $4.9 million compared with $0.6 million in the 1999 period.
Following recent SEC guidance on revenue recognition, revenues in 2000 include
only a portion of a $10 million upfront payment received in January related to
the licensing of NEUPREX(R). A remaining unrecognized balance of $8.6 million
will be recognized ratably over future periods.

Research and development expenses decreased to $7.4 million in the second
quarter of 2000, compared with $11.1 million in the 1999 period. For the six
months ended June 30, 2000, research and development costs were $14.6 million,
compared with $23.4 million in the same period in 1999. The decrease was due
primarily to lower spending on clinical trials for the NEUPREX(R) and anti-CD11a
products. General and administrative spending was $1.6 million and $3.1 million
for three and six months, respectively, ended June 30, 2000, compared with $1.6
million and $3.0 million, respectively, in the comparable 1999 period.

Investment income was higher for the first two quarters of 2000 compared to the
same period in 1999 due to a higher average investment balance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

The Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $43.0
million as of June 30, 2000, up from $18.5 million at December 31, 1999. Net
cash used in operating activities plus capital expenditures were offset by the
net proceeds from common shares issued in February 2000. Net cash used in
operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $7.3 million,
compared with a net usage of $22.4 million in the comparable 1999 period. The
decrease in usage was primarily due to lower amounts paid for clinical trials
and preparation of regulatory filings, and receipt of a $10 million initial
payment from Baxter. The Company has also received $33.3 million of net proceeds
from the issuance of common shares in 2000. The Company's cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments are expected to continue to decrease while the
Company pursues U.S. Food and Drug Administration licensure except to the extent
the Company secures additional funding.

Operating expenses may increase in future periods as the Company proceeds with
various internal development programs. Cash balances and operating cash flow are
influenced by the timing and level of payments by the Company's licensees and
development partners, as well as by the Company's net income.


                                      -7-
<PAGE>

The Company has been able to control its operating cash consumption by carefully
monitoring its costs. As a result, its cash position and resulting investment
income are sufficient to finance the Company's currently anticipated levels of
spending through at least the second quarter of 2002. Strategic arrangements
with Allergan, Inc., Baxter and Genentech, Inc. have reduced Company spending
levels by paying certain product development costs. The Company continues to
evaluate a variety of arrangements that would further strengthen its competitive
position and provide additional funding, but cannot predict when or whether any
such arrangement or additional funding will be secured. Without additional
funding, the Company would have to decrease or eliminate the development of some
of its products.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk:

Interest Rate Risk. The Company's exposure to market rate risk due to changes in
interest rates relates primarily to the Company's investment portfolio. The
Company does not use derivative financial instruments in its investment
portfolio. By policy, the Company places its investments with high quality debt
security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer, limits
duration by restricting the term and holds investments to maturity except under
rare circumstances. The Company classifies its cash equivalents as fixed rate if
the rate of return on an instrument remains fixed over its term. As of June 30,
2000, all the Company's cash equivalents are classified as fixed rate.

The Company also has a long-term convertible note due to Genentech in 2005.
Interest on this note of LIBOR plus 1% is reset at the end of June and December
each year and is therefore variable.

The table below presents the amounts and related weighted interest rates of the
Company's cash equivalents and long-term convertible note at June 30, 2000:

                                                                               Fair Value            Average

</TABLE>

Other Market Risk. At June 30, 2000 the Company had a long-term convertible note
outstanding which is convertible into common shares based on the market price of
the Company's common shares at the time of conversion. A 10% decrease in the
market price of the Company's common shares would increase the number of shares
issuable upon conversion of either security by approximately 11%. An increase in
the market price of Company common shares of 10% would decrease the shares
issuable by approximately 9%.
