     This Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement (the "Statement") relates to a
proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 23, 1995 (the "Merger
Agreement") among Genentech, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Genentech"), Roche
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Roche"), and HLR (U.S.) II, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Roche. The purpose of such
Merger Agreement and resulting conversion of Genentech Common Stock into
Genentech Special Common Stock is to, among other matters, (i) extend by four
years the period during which the publicly traded stock of Genentech is subject
to redemption by Genentech at the option of Roche, with such redemption during
such four-year period being at specified prices per share ranging from $61.25
during the quarter ending September 30, 1995 increasing $1.25 per share for the
next seven quarters and $1.50 per share for the next eight quarters to $82.00
during the quarter ending June 30, 1999 (the "Call Rights"), and (ii) provide
holders thereof the right to require Genentech to redeem all or a portion (at
the election of the holder) of their shares of such stock for a 30-business-day
period beginning in July 1999 (unless such right is accelerated following the
occurrence of certain insolvency events of Genentech) at a price of $60.00 per
share in the event that Roche does not cause the exercise of the Call Rights.
This Statement is intended to satisfy the reporting requirements of Section
13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("The Act"). A
preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the "Proxy Statement") was filed by
Genentech with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
immediately prior to the filing of this Statement pursuant to the provisions of
Regulation 14A of the Act.

scientists apply their industry-leading expertise to develop cost-effective
methods for manufacturing these pharmaceutical candidates in quantities and on
a time-line sufficient to supply fast-paced clinical trials and, ultimately,
the market.



(ART)


Genentech's new process science center,
scheduled for completion in mid 1995,
will centralize the company's process
scientists in one state-of-the-science
facility, enhancing their ability to
develop cost-effective methods of
manufacturing Genetech's protein
pharmaceuticals.

                            DISCOVERY RESEARCH


Genentech's science begins with its innovative and prolific discovery research.
Through a clear research focus on well-defined biological areas and selective
use of key emerging technologies, Genentech scientists continuously generate a
wealth of pharmaceutical candidates from which the company moves one or two
into development each year. Promising projects not chosen for development are
outlicensed to capture their value for stockholders.


                                   [ART]


                                            In June 1994, Genentech scientists
                                            reported they discovered the long-
                                            sought blood platelet growth
                                            factor, thrombopoietin. The
                                            company has since acted quickly to
                                            plan to move the protein into
                                            clinical development for the
                                            treatment of a dangerous side 
                                            effect of cancer chemotherapy.

                   PRECLINICAL AND CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT

Genentech selects a limited number of products for development based on specific
selection criteria. It discontinues efforts on projects that do not continue to
meet these criteria. This focuses the company's resources on projects most
likely to bring value to patients and stockholders. Genentech is using its
proven expertise, enhanced by close collaborations with regulatory authorities,
to guide several promising products through preclinical testing and various
stages of human clinical trials.

                                             11-year-old Robert Coleman has had
                                             allergies since infancy and began
                                             asthma symptoms at age 5. He is
                                             enrolled in a Phase I trial for 
                                             Genentech's anti-IgE antibody, 
                                             which is testing the drug's safety
                                             in children. Phase II trials in 
                                             adults are testing safety and 
                                             efficacy for allergic rhinitis
                                             and  asthma. With proven
                                             expertise, Genentech's Medical
                                             Affairs groups manage dozens of
                                             clinical trials worldwide.

- --        
ANTI-VEGF HUMANIZED MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY
        
For cancer and diabetic retinopathies
        
The protein vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promotes blood vessel
growth. It can be involved in disease by promoting blood supply that tumors need
to become malignant, or by promoting excess blood vessel growth at the retina
in diabetics, which can lead to blindness. An antibody to VEGF may be useful to
treat cancers and diabetic retinopathy. This clinical development candidate is
in late-stage research.

- --
RAS FARNESYLTRANSFERASE INHIBITOR

For pancreatic and colon concerns

Ras is a growth controlling factor that becomes oncogenic (cancer causing) when
mutated. The mutated protein is found in most pancreatic cancers and many colon
cancers. The enzyme ras farnesyltransferase is involved in processing ras and
is critical to its function. An inhibitor to this enzyme may be useful to treat
these cancers. This clinical development candidate is in late stage research.

- --
THROMBOPOICTIN

For thrombocytopenia related to cancer treatment

Patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy may suffer from thrombocytopenia -- a
shortage of clot-inducing platelets that can lead to uncontrolled bleeding.
Thrombopoictin promotes platelet production. It may be useful to treat cancer
patients so they can avoid this side effect and possibly tolerate higher doses
of anti-cancer treatment. Genentech has identified this project for clinical
development.

- --
ORAL IIb/IIIa ANTAGONIST

For cardiovascular indications

Blood platelets aggregate to initiate clotting. This orally active IIb/IIIa
antagonist, discovered in collaboration with Roche, is designed to bind to the
IIb/IIIa receptor on the surface of platelets to inhibit their ability to
aggregate. It may be useful to help prevent blood clotting in certain
cardiovascular conditions, such as to prevent reclotting after a heart attack.
Genentech has identified this project for clinical development.

ORAL IIb/IIIa ANTAGONIST

For cardiovascular indications


Blood platelets aggregate to initiate clotting. This orally active IIb/IIa
antagonist, discovered in collaboration with Roche, is designed to bind to
the IIb/IIIa receptor on the surface of platelets to inhibit their ability to
aggregate. It may be useful to help prevent blood clotting in certain
cardiovascular conditions, such as to prevent reclotting after a heart attack.
Genentech has identified this project for clinical development.

SECOND GENERATION t-PA

For heart attacks and related cardiovascular disorders


Designed to build on the success of Activase, second generation t-PA is a
selectively mutated version of natural t-PA. Preclinical data suggest it may be
easier to administer, work faster, cause less unwanted bleeding and require
smaller doses than Activase.


- --
NERVE GROWTH FACTOR

For peripheral neuropathics


Often associated with diabetes or cancer chemotherapy, peripheral neuropathy is
characterized by progressive nerve fiber damage in the hands and feet. Nerve
growth factor may be able to prevent loss of or restore nerve function in
patients with diabetes or undergoing cancer chemotherapy.


- --
INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR (IGF-I)

For diabetes


Some Type II diabetics do not respond well to oral hypoglycemic agents or
insulin.  Studies show that patients with Type I diabetes have fewer
complications if they closely control blood sugar levels; this is probably also
true for Type II diabetes.  Genentech is investigating whether IGF-I can
increase insulin sensitivity in Type II diabetics and help diabetics of either
type maintain better glucose control.


- --
ANTI-IgE HUMANIZED MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY

For allergic rhinitis and asthma


The anti-IgE humanized monoclonal antibody is designed to interfere early in the
complex, multistep process that leads to the symptoms of allergy, such as
allergic rhinitis and asthma.


- --
gp120

As a prophylactic vaccine against HIV-1 infection


Genentech's gp120 is a genetically engineered copy of a protein on the surface
of HIV-1,  the virus that causes AIDS. Genentech is investigating gp120 as a
prophylactic vaccine in U.S. Phase II clinical trials. The World Health
Organization is conducting Phase I trials of gp120 in intravenous drug users in
Bangkok, Thailand.


- --
NUTROPIN


For growth hormone inadequacy in adults


Genentech is investigating the potential of Nutropin to restore proper metabolic
functioning in adults who have been growth hormone inadequate since childhood or
who have become so through disease or accident. These patients may benefit from
growth hormone replacement to restore their physical and psycho-social
well-being.


- --
ACTIVASE

For ischemic stroke


Ischemic stroke is caused by blood clots in the arteries of the brain. Activase
may be able to dissolve the clots and restore blood flow to the brain, reducing
neurologic damage.  When completed, ongoing clinical trials may provide data
necessary to apply for regulatory approval to change Activase's label to reflect
its efficiency in stroke patients.

THROMBOPOIETIN                       

For thrombocytopenia related to cancer treatment

Patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy may suffer from thrombocytopenia -- 
a shortage of clot-inducing platelets that can lead to uncontrolled bleeding.
Thrombopoietin promotes platelet production. It may be useful to treat cancer
patients so they can avoid this side effect and possibly tolerate higher doses
of anti-cancer treatment. Genentech has identified this project for clinical
development.


- --
ORAL IIb/IIIa ANTAGONIST

For cardiovascular indications

Blood platelets aggregate to initiate clotting. This orally active IIb/IIIa
antagonist, discovered in collaboration with Roche, is designed to bind to the
IIb/IIIa receptor on the surface of platelets to inhibit their ability to
aggregate. It may be useful to help prevent blood clotting in certain
cardiovascular conditions, such as to prevent reclotting after a heart attack.
Genentech has identified this project for clinical development.


- --
SECOND GENERATION t-PA

For heart attacks and related cardiovascular disorders

Designed to build on the success of Activase, second generation t-PA is a
selectively mutated version of natural t-PA. Preclinical data suggest it may be
easier to administer, work faster, cause less unwanted bleeding and require
smaller doses than Activase.


- --
NERVE GROWTH FACTOR

For peripheral neuropathics

Often associated with diabetes or cancer chemotherapy, peripheral neuropathy is
characterized by progressive nerve fiber damage in the hands and feet. Nerve
growth factor may be able to prevent loss of or restore nerve function in
patients with diabetes or undergoing cancer chemotherapy.


- --
INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR (IGF-I)

For diabetes

Some Type II diabetics do not respond well to oral hypoglycemic agents or
insulin. Studies show that patients with Type I diabetes have fewer
complications if they closely control blood sugar levels; this is probably also
true for Type II diabetes. Genentech is investigating whether IGF-I can 
increase insulin sensitivity in Type II diabetics and help diabetics of either
type maintain better glucose control.

- --
ANTI-IgE HUMANIZED MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY

For allergic rhinitis and asthma

The anti-IgE humanized monoclonal antibody is designed to interfere early in
the complex, multistep process that leads to the symptoms of allergy, such as
allergic rhinitis and asthma.


- --
gp120

As a prophylactic vaccine against HIV-1 infection

Genentech's gp120 is a genetically engineered copy of a protein on the surface
of HIV-1, the virus that causes AIDS. Genentech is investigating gp120 as a
prophylactic vaccine in U.S. Phase II clinical trials. The World Health
Organization is conducting Phase I trials of gp120 in intravenous drug users in
Bangkok, Thailand.


- --
NUTROPIN

For growth hormone inadequacy in adults

Genentech is investigating the potential of Nutropin to restore proper
metabolic functioning in adults who have been growth hormone inadequate since
childhood or who have become so through disease or accident. These patients may
benefit from growth hormone replacement to restore their physical and
psycho-social well-being.


- --
ACTIVASE

For Ischemic stroke

Ischemic stroke is caused by blood clots in the arteries of the brain. Activase
may be able to dissolve the clots and restore blood flow to the brain, reducing
neurologic damage. When completed, ongoing clinical trials may provide data
necessary to apply for regulatory approval to change Activase's label to
reflect its efficacy in stroke patients.

Acute renal failure is a life-threatening condition that results primarily from
a temporary decrease in blood flow to the kidneys after injury or complicated
surgery. Genentech and Scios Nova Inc., which licensed Auriculin to Genentech
and Scios Nova Inc., which licensed Auriculin to Genentech, are collaborating to
investigate whether Auriculin-- a hormone that occurs naturally in the heart--
can reduce the need for kidney dialysis in patients with this acute condition.

ANTI-HER2 HUMANIZED MONICIONAL ANTIBODY

For breast cancer


The anti-HER2 antibody is designed to block a protein receptor called HER2 that
is produced in excess amounts in some women with breast cancer. Based on
favorable Phase II trial results, Genentech is investigating the anti-HER2
antibody as a treatment for breast cancer in international Phase III trials.


- --
PULMOZYME

For chronic obstructive pulmonary disease


Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a syndrome of airway
inflammation, infection and obstruction that leads to lung destruction. In Phase
II trials, Pulmozyme reduced mortality in patients hospitalized with acute
infectious episodes of chronic bronchitis (a form of COPD). Genentech's
international Phase III trial will determine if Pulmozyme can reduce mortality
in hospitalized COPD patients.


- --
ACTIMMUNE

For renal cell carcinoma


Actimmune has been shown to have some anti-tumor effects, including some tumor
shrinkage in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma-kidney cancer that
has spread beyond the kidneys.


NUTROPIN

For short stature associated with Turner syndrome


Turner syndrome is a genetic disorder in females that causes a variety of
medical problems including very short stature. Clinical trials have shown
Nutropin may help these patients become taller than they would otherwise.


- --
NUTROPIN (LIQUID)

For growth hormone inadequacy in children and growth failure due to chronic
renal insufficiency


A liquid formulation of growth hormone would not require reconstitution, making
administration easier for patients.


- --
ACTIVASE (ACCELERATED INFUSION)

For acute myocardial infarction (heart attack)


Based on the results of the GUSTO clinical trial, an FDA advisory committee
unanimously agreed that the rapid infusion of Activase has a clinically
significant mortality benefit in the treatment of heart attacks and recommended
that the new dosing regimen be incorporated into the product's labeling.


- --
DISCONTINUED PIPELINE PROJECTS

Genentech is seeking development partners for these projects:

- -  Anti-CD18 Humanized Monoclonal Antibody for inflammatory disorders

- -  Transforming Growth Factor-B1 for mucositis

Genentech has discontinued these projects because in each case Phase II clinical
trials showed no significant benefit of the product for the targeted indication:

- -  gp120 as an
   immunotherapeutic for HIV-1 infected individuals

- -  IGF-I for physical wasting syndrome associated with AIDS

G. Kirk Raas
PRESIDENT & CEO


                                                            January 31, 1995


Dear Fellow Stockholders:

Thanks to the tremendous efforts of Genentech employees, I'm able to report a
successful year in which we've more than doubled profits and increased product
sales 31 percent, and total revenues 22 percent, with a greater percentage of
revenues going to the bottom line. We also made significant progress with
important preclinical and clinical programs for our new products.

     Our employees continue to be guided by a clear focus and united purpose: to
apply excellent science toward innovative products that substantially help
people with serious medical conditions, while increasing returns for our
stockholders. The fundamentals of the business are sound, with execution based
on a disciplined and caring culture. It's the leaders of Genentech's major
operating functions, each profiled beginning on page 24, who keep us sharply
focused. Regardless of function, each group's priorities converge back to
Genentech's science.

        Consider our research discovery and technology groups. By any measure,
these groups continue to be exceptionally creative and productive. An
especially telling indication is how difficult it is to choose development
projects among the many exciting research projects they generate. We decide
which  projects to move into development based on important information
gathered  early. Our preclinical scientists determine potential uses and safety
issues  in laboratory models. Our clinical scientists evaluate the potential
benefits  a product brings to patients. Our legal group determines what market
protection we can anticipate. Our marketing group evaluates worldwide
commercial  possibilities and our process scientists determine if we can
manufacture a  product cost-effectively. As a result, we can make intelligent
decisions about which projects to move toward the marketplace, while our
financial group keeps  us directed toward profitable growth.
        
     In making choices, we balance risk and return as an investment portfolio
manager would. Some projects have potential for high return, but at a higher
risk than we might otherwise

                                      5







<PAGE>   17
consider. Others may have lower potential for return, but also lower risk. Of
course we make a priority of those with low relative risk and high potential
for return. The result is a balanced mix offering good opportunity for
significant return with reasonable risk.

     Anticipated market protection is a major consideration; without the
assurance of a fair market advantage as a proprietary product, a project is not
worth the investment risk. As Lee Iacocca said, "In any kind of competition,
the first thing you do is protect yourself." Our legal group has protected our
efforts well, as exemplified by a recent major agreement in our favor settling
a long-standing dispute with Eli Lilly and Company regarding a variety of
patent and contract issues. This agreement, which should result in payments of
$145 million, reinforces the value of our patents. We will continue to defend
and enforce them, as we have recently by filing suits against other makers of
recombinant growth hormone products. And we will continue to aggressively
patent new technology.
        
     The efforts of our regulatory affairs team have helped secure an FDA
advisory committee recommendation for approval for new labeling for Activase.
We anticipate such approval in 1995, which would allow our sales force and 
marketing group to actively promote this drug's life-saving benefits as 
demonstrated by the GUSTO trial. This would translate into even higher market 
share than the present more than 70 percent and, most importantly, more lives 
saved from heart attack. As we strive to design clinical trials to meet the 
demands of regulatory authorities worldwide, this group's efforts become 
increasingly important.
        
     As will the efforts of our clinical and process scientists. We currently
have five projects in Phase II and five in Phase III clinical trials, some of
which are multinational. We're seekng key answers quickly to get important
products to market fast. And to terminate projects whose potential has faded so
we can redirect our resources to more promising opportunities. Health Care
realities dictate that through clinical trials we demonstrate not only safety
and effectiveness, but also value. Our clinical scientists are doing more than
ever, and they're doing it very well.
        

                                      6


<PAGE>   18
        To conduct clinical trials, we must develop manufacturing processes to
produce large quantities of many different products simultaneously. Making
increased quantities of a protein is not simple, particularly with
cost-effectiveness as essential as it is today. Our process scientists use the
same level of creativity and ingenuity as our discovery scientists use to
discover new pharmaceuticals. When it opens this year, our new process science
center will provide the same caliber of centralized facility and equipment as
our Founders Research Center did in 1992.

        Our outstanding manufacturing team will also have new facilities, in
Vacaville, California, as we expand in preparation for our new products. In
1995, our facilities and engineering group will break ground on this new
manufacturing facility. This group has kept our facilities growth in step with
corporate growth within a disciplined budget.

        Another group with key accomplishments in 1994 is business development.
These employees identify areas where Genentech could best proceed in
collaboration with external organizations, and they identify key technologies or
products to which Genentech can gain access via collaboration. An example of
their efforts in 1994 is the agreement with Scios Nova to develop a therapy for
acute renal failure.

        In 1994, Genentech Europe Ltd. successfully launched Pulmozyme in four
European countries. This group's efforts in 1995 will not only significantly
increase Pulmozyme sales, but also coordinate clinical trials and develop new
marketing plans for new indications and products for Europe.

        Our agreement with Roche to develop Pulmozyme in Europe helped bring
that product to additional European countries. Our R&D agreements with Roche
have already led to one joint development product - our orally active IIb/IIIa
antagonist for treating cardiovascular disorders.

        Our U.S. sales and marketing groups have done a terrific job in 1994,
as evidenced by our product sales increases. They achieved this success despite
a critical environment in which our past practices have come under
investigation. In light of the changing regulatory environment, we have
provided these groups clear guidelines and contracts for acceptable practices.

We stand behind their efforts. They have done a vital job in bringing the
benefits of our products to patients who need them. This is evident in the
growing acceptance of Pulmozyme among the cystic fibrosis community. I'm
confident their efforts in 1995 will be even more successful.
        I can say the same for all of our more than 2,700 employees, including
those who work in human resources, information services, corporate
communications and other important areas I didn't mention here. In 1994, we
continued our efforts to ensure Genentech values the contributions of our
diverse groups of employees and that our work environment brings out the best
in each of them. As our employees' accomplishments in 1994 showed, their
efforts are what ultimately bring value to Genentech stockholders. I'll
continue to ensure Genentech's work environment is one that fully realizes and
enhances that value.
        Finally, I'd like to thank Roche and all the other Genentech
stockholders for your continued support. Thanks to your vision, our science is
bringing innovative medicine to patients around the world. I'm confident we can
all look forward to further growth.


Sincerely,

                          THE FUTURE IS SCIENCE






                                  [ART]





AS IN THE PAST, GENENTECH'S FUTURE IS SCIENCE   Since its founding in 1976,
Genentech has rooted its success in excellent science. That strategy continues
today. Excellent science sustains all stages of a product's journey from
stimulating the mind of a scientist to meeting the needs of a patient.

DISCOVERY RESEARCH  That journey begins in discovery research. Here Genentech
scientists focus their efforts on specific areas of medicine where the company
has significant expertise and where room remains for important clinical
advances. But Genentech also encourages its scientists to spend about 25
percent of their time on research of their own choosing, a source of some of
Genentech's most important discoveries. This discretionary research time is
part of a work environment designed to foster scientific excellence -- an
environment that includes a liberal publication policy, frequent scientific
seminars and top-quality laboratory facilities.
        Besides focusing on specific areas of medicine, Genentech researchers
identify emerging technologies in which to develop an expertise in-house. This
keeps the company at the forefront of biotechnology even as technology moves
ever forward. And it leads to innovative products. Genentech's expertise in
humanized monoclonal antibodies has led to the anti-HER2 and anti-1gE
antibodies. An expertise in gene "knock out" technology lets Genentech
scientists understand the effects of specific genes and how the proteins those
genes produce -- or molecules that mimic them -- might function therapeutically.
A mouse model deficient in nerve growth factor, for example, suggests this
protein could

                                      9

be useful in treating Alzheimer's disease. Genentech is also nurturing
expertise in gene therapy and certain other key technologies.

        Genentech relies on research collaborations to access additional
technologies of interest. In collaboration with Roche, for example, the company
combines its expertise in biological molecules with Roche's expertise in orally
active molecules. This collaboration has already led to one clinical
development project targeting cardiovascular indications.

PRECLINICAL AND CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT  Genentech's discovery research has led to
more potential products than the company has resources to develop. Genentech
manages this fortunate dilemma with discipline, applying strict selection
criteria to determine which projects to develop. The goal is to identify
projects with the best potential to benefit patients and stockholders.
Genentech will stop development if a project does not continue to meet these
criteria. More projects wait in the wings. To realize the value of all
promising research projects for stockholders, Genentech outlicenses those that
do not meet selection criteria yet remain scientifically promising.

        Regulatory authorities require preclinical testing and three phases of
human clinical trials of increasing complexity and cost to ulti-

mately prove safety and efficacy. Recognizing that a shortcut can be the
longest route. Genentech relies on information from preclinical experiments and
Phase I trials to design comprehensive Phase II trials that can clearly
demonstrate the efficacy of a drug, minimizing the risk of Phase III surprises.
Done well, Phase II trials can provide "proof of concept" and data needed to
design Phase III trials to answer the questions regulatory authorities ask.
        
        Clinical trials designed carefully and in closer collaboration with the
FDA and other regulatory authorities allow Genentech to proceed from phase to
phase of the process with confidence it will know definitively whether a drug
works. If a drug does work, this approach can ultimately provide compelling
proof of a drug's safety, efficacy and value, essential for both regulatory
approvals and successful marketing.

PROCESS SCIENCE AND MANUFACTURING Genentech scientists and engineers must
determine how to make a drug in large quantities in a way that will provide
pure, high-quality product at the lowest possible cost. Genentech's
manufacturing processes today are far more sophisticated in scale, yield,
efficacy and quality than the processes of 15 years ago. As Genentech strives
for increasing cost-efficiency, this trend will continue.

        Toward that end, Genentech is constructing a new $62.5 million process
science center to be completed in mid-1995. The center will gather in one
modern facility scientists and engineers currently scattered on Genentech's
campus. It 


                                      11

will provide equipment necessary to test and refine future manufacturing
processes. The pay-off will be faster development of more economical
manufacturing processes.

        In 1994, Genentech selected Vacaville, California as the site of a new
manufacturing facility for products currently in its pipeline. A challenge will
be to balance the capacity developed, with progress of clinical trials,
ensuring adequate capacity to support late-stage clinical trials and the
market, yet not investing in excess capacity that will remain idle.
Well-designed clinical trials help give the answers needed to strike the right
balance.

SCIENCE BEYOND PRODUCT APPROVAL  Once a product reaches the market, the need
for excellent science continues. Clinical registry studies of Genetech's
marketed products help these drugs meet their potential to help patients.
Genentech continues research in the disease areas its products target through
second-generation products that may offer further clinical advances.

        Science is an ongoing process. It is not merely an academic pursuit,
but one that leads to improvements in human health. Science is the basis of
Genentech's successful approach to business.

Genetech's five marketed products are driving the company's growth today. Even
in a changing health care environment, if products provide true value, the
company can scientifically demonstrate that medical and economic value to
health care decision makers. Genentech's growth tomorrow will be driven on a
global scale by the products in its pipeline today.

HELPING HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS IMPROVE PATIENT CARE

Genentech's commitment to improving medical care goes beyond selling a product.
The company provides a variety of programs and services to ensure its medicines
meet their full potential in enhancing patient care. Genentech helps ensure its
products are available to all appropriate patients through programs that
provide its medicines free to un- or underinsured patients in the United States
who need but cannot afford them.

Genentech markets five products to treat six serious medical conditions:

- -  Pulmozyme (dornose alfa) inhalation solution -- cystic fibrosis

- -  Activase (Alteplase, recombinant), a tissue-plasminogen activator -- acute
   myocardial infarction (heart attack), acute massive pulmonary embolism (blood
   clots in the lungs)

- -  Protropin (somatrem for injection) and Nutropin (somatropin [rDNA origin]
   for injection) growth hormones -- growth hormone inadequacy and growth
   failure due to chronic renal insufficiency (Nutropin only)

- -  Actimmune (interferon gamma-1b) -- chronic granulomatous disease

                               BREATHING EASIER

PULMOZYME  Genentech, Genentech Europe Ltd. or Roche have launched Pulmozyme
for cystic fibrosis (CF) in 19 countries, together reaching much of the
eligible worldwide patient population of this life-shortening disease. The
challenge now is to make Pulmozyme available to all who need it so they can
breathe more easily and spend less time in the hospital due to respiratory
infections.
        Clinical data presented in 1994 re-affirmed Pulmozyme's benefits and
enhanced its acceptance among CF patients and their doctors. The results of the
Phase III trial in CF patients, on which Pulmozyme's approval was based, were
reported in The New England Journal of Medicine. Data presented at a medical
conference in October continue to suggest Pulmozyme is safe and effective.
        To continue to monitor safety and effectiveness, Genentech has created
growing patient registry studies in the United States and Europe with more than
14,000 patients at 200 CF centers. These will help physicians optimize patient
care through an increased understanding of the disease and its treatment.
        These studies are only part of Genentech's commitment to CF, distilled
in the Pulmozyme Patient Pledge, which ensures all U.S. patients who need
Pulmozyme wil receive it, and which commits Genentech to work toward a cure.
Genentech's research with a second generation version of the drug may lead to a
therapy with even greater clinical benefits than Pulmozyme. Through a
collaboration with GenVec, Inc., a gene therapy company, Genentech is pursuing
the technology that is the best hope for a cure for the life-shortening
respiratory problems of CF. Because only when CF patients worldwide no longer
have to struggle for breath can we all breathe easier.

                        TIME MATTERS

ACTIVASE In the treatment of heart attacks, time matters. In June 1994, a U.S.
FDA advisory committee recommended that an accelerated infusion of Activase be
cleared for marketing for the management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI),
or heart attack. If approved, Activase's revised labeling would incorporate data
from the worldwide GUSTO trial, which showed that accelerated Activase saves
more lives than another clot-dissolving (thrombolytic) agent studied.
        Once Activase's labeling incorporates GUSTO's findings, Genentech will
be able to promote them, so more physicians might apply this new, life-saving
regimen. Since the GUSTO results were first reported in April 1993, Genentech's
market share has risen from just under 50 percent to more than 70 percent.
        Ways to further improve heart attack treatment are to reduce time to
treatment and identify all patients eligible for thrombolytic therapy. In 1994,
the National Institute of Health issued guidelines to encourage hospitals to
administer thrombolytic therapy more quickly and to more patients who could
benefit. Genentech endorses these recommendations through its registry
studies, which provide data on more than 350,000 heart attack patients supplied
by 1,500 participating medical centers. By monitoring patient data, medical
centers can enhance their approach to treatment. Genentech also supports
education that encourages heart attack patients to seek treatment quickly.
        Genentech's commitment to improving heart attack treatment extends into
the future. The company's second-generation t-PA, currently in Phase I trials,
may be easier to administer, cause less bleeding, and -- toward an
ever-desirable goal of heart attack treatment -- work faster.

                          WAY TO GROW


PROTROPIN/NUTROPIN  Though in 1994 Genentech did not face additional
competition in the human growth hormone (hGH) market, the company is prepared
for competition in 1995. Some market loss will be inevitable. Yet Genentech
intends to apply its many strengths to maintain leadership.
        These strengths stem from Genentech's commitment to helping physicians
better understand human growth and development. The company's National
Cooperative Growth Study has tracked more than 20,000 patients at more than 400
participating medical centers. It provides physicians data on product safety
and helps them develop the best course of treatment for patients.
        Genentech is the only company to market hGH for two indications. It has
also filed for approval to market a liquid hGH, which will provide a
competitive advantage because it does not require reconstitution. Genentech is
continuing clinical trials to treat Turner syndrome in girls with this genetic
disorder affecting growth. It also supports patient education programs and an
independent foundation that provides grants for researchers investigating human
growth and development.
        Genentech is working to defend its hGH patent position, which was
reaffirmed through a settlement in Genentech's favor with Eli Lilly and
Company, maker of the only other hGH product on the U.S. market.
        Regardless of when additional competition enters the market, Genentech
remains committed to helping improve the care of patients with growth
disorders. That commitment will help ensure the continued success of its hGH
products.

                               STAYING HEALTHY


ACTIMMUNE  Staying healthy can be difficult for patients with chronic
granulomatous disease [CGD]. This very rare inherited deficiency of the immune
system leaves patients vulnerable to frequent and severe bacterial and fungal
infections that often required hospitalization and can be fatal. Most of the
approximately 400 CGD patients in the United States are children.

        Actimmune reduces approximately threefold the frequency of serious
infections requiring hospitalization. Because of Actimmune, patients with CGD
can come closer to achieving a goal most of us can take for granted; staying
healthy.

In a health care environment that focuses increasingly on cost, Genentech is
working to demonstrate the value of its unique pharmaceuticals. In doing so,
the company is targeting the changing customer audience of formulary managers
and health benefits directors who are increasingly important in determining 
which drugs are available to patients.

DEMONSTRATING VALUE STARTS WITH DEVELOPING VALUE  Take Pulmozyme. By
demonstrating in a Phase III clinical trial that this drug can reduce some other
costs associated with cystic fibrosis treatment and that it improves patients'
quality-of-life, Genentech was able to demonstrate the drug's value -- the
positive ratio of its clinical benefits relative to its cost -- to health care
providers, insurance companies and government reimbursement programs. As a
result, the overwhelming majority of these medical providers make this
important medicine available to patients who need it.

                        TREATMENT.


        Genentech's registry programs for its marketed products continue to
provide data to support the value of these products. As the company moves
forward with clinical development of new products, wherever possible it will
design clinical trials to show not only safety and efficiency, but also the 
value of these products. It will do so by providng data on cost-effectiveness --
whether it reduces the costs of other treatments, and how its overall cost
compares to other widely accepted medical interventions. Of course, to
demonstrate value requires a drug that truly brings significant medical value
to patients -- exactly the kind of drug Genentech has always pursued, and
exactly the kind that fills its pipeline today.

- --GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES  Beginning with Pulmozyme, compared to Genentech's
earlier products marketed mainly in the United States, the potential market for
many products in Genentech's pipeline increases with the European and Japanese
markets.
        In collaboration with Roche, Genentech Europe Ltd. is conducting an
international Phase III clinical trial of Pulmozyme for chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD) at 80 centers in Europe, where Genentech and Roche
share marketing rights. The two companies are developing Pulmozyme for COPD in
Japan. Through these collaborations, their combined clinical expertise will
speed the process and enhance the opportunity for success, just as the
collaboration to get Pulmozyme to market in Europe for CF did.

        Drawing on recent international experience, Genentech is developing its
anti-IgE and anti-HER2 antibodies in Europe. Genentech Europe Ltd. is currently
planning clinical trials, with trials of the anti-HER2 antibody scheduled to
begin in the first half of 1995. Roche and Genentech are developing the
anti-IgE antibody in Japan.
        The poster inside the front cover of this report shows where Genentech
retains international marketing rights for the products in its pipeline. The
expertise Genentech is developing with Pulmozyme and the anti-IgE and anti-HER2
antibodies will serve the company well as it develops products for a global
market, bringing the medical benefits of its unique products to patients around
the world.

Genentech's six senior executives are all long-time employees of the company
with other traits in common. They all left what were sure to be good careers
with more traditional employers. They were lured by the excitement of
recombinant DNA technology and its potential to help people, and by the
opportunity to build functions and test new management ideas in an
entrepreneurial environment. Without resorting to cumbersome, hierarchical
management structures, they have all grown their functions with Genentech,
growing themselves as well. They are each quick to credit their success to the
skill and dedication of their people. And they all marvel at the talent, energy
and enthusiasm they have found at Genentech. The expertise these six senior
executives have developed in their areas and in managing Genentech's unique
culture, combined with their ongoing entrepreneurial drive, will lead
Genentech's success into the next century.

                                       Genentech Canada, Inc.


                                       Dick Brewer began his career as
                                       a sales representative with Ives
                                       Laboratories and progressed
                                       steadily through several
                                       marketing and sales management
                                       positions, first at G.D. Searle
and Co. and then, beginning in 1984, at Genentech, where he successfully 
led the effort to launch Protropin. Dick was named vice president of 
Marketing in 1989, vice president of Sales and Marketing in 1990 and 
senior vice president in 1993. He oversees the U.S. sales and marketing
effort and all aspects of Genentech's Canadian and European operations. For
1995, he is focusing on the business success of these operations:


"A priority for me is to ensure that our two businesses outside the United
States -- Genentech Canada, Inc. and Genentech Europe Ltd. -- continue to move
toward further commercial success. In both these businesses we will continue to
build the necessary infrastructures to conduct clinical trials, obtain
regulatory and reimbursement approval of new products, and effectively
commercialize our products so we can expeditiously get new drugs to patients
who need them in these parts of the world. Specific priorities for 1995 are to
ensure continued success in commercializing Pulmozyme for cystic fibrosis in
Europe and to continue progress with international clinical trials of
Pulmozyme for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, of our anti-HER2 antibody
for breast cancer, and of our anti-1gE antibody for allergies and asthma.

        "For our U.S. sales and marketing operations, our number one job is to
deliver the revenues. While that's very clear, an equally important priority is
to ensure we do so while keeping within appropriate regulations and guidelines
and our own strict policies and controls. The world of pharmaceutical sales and
marketing is changing, and I'll continue to ensure we're changing with it,
proactively. Key to doing so successfully while keeping employees motivated is
to provide very clear guidelines to our sales and marketing staff so they are
empowered to bring in sales as they continue to operate within all applicable
regulations. We are making very clear to them not only what they cannot do, but
also what they can do, to effectively market our products."

Lou Lavigne's penchant for planning
became apparent after he was named
controller in 1983, a year after he joined
the company from Pennwalt Corporation.
Though Genentech had income of about $1 million, to be ready for growth he
built the company's financial functions by hiring people with expertise at
large companies. Most of them now make up Genentech's financial management team
and draw on that experience daily. Since named vice president in 1986 and chief
financial officer in 1988, and then senior vice president in 1994, this
operations-oriented CFO has focused on strategic corporate planning. For 1995,
he has a clear strategy:


"Our financial strategy consists of four major elements, best described as
principles of disciplined growth leading to increased stockholder value. They
are: 1. Achieve strong top- and bottom-line growth; 2. Increase the percentage
of revenues to the bottom line through tight management of expenses; 3. Enhance
financial strength paced with growth; and 4. Increase returns to our
stockholders.

        "An example of our disciplined growth is R&D expenses. These are
signficant ($314.3 million in 1994) and will continue to grow because of
increasing numbers of potential projects in later stages of clinical trials.
But as revenues grow, our percentage of R&D investment relative to revenues
will decline. We will not lose discipline in controlling expenditures, even in
this key area, just because revenues are increasing. At the same time, we will
moderate the percentage of revenues spent in marketing, general and
administrative expenses, further improving the bottom line. But we will invest
adequately for continued growth. It's through investments today that we'll bring
value to stockholders in the future.

        "A challenge for Genentech in 1995 is to make our overall strategy for
growth clear to the investment community. Out job is unchanged: It's up to us
to manage the company for profitable growth. That will benefit all
stockholders."

Senior Vice President and Staff Scientist
Research, Preclinical Development, Medical Affairs,
Product Development


Since joining Genentech in 1980, Art Levinson outgrew several research positions
before becoming vice president of Research Technology in 1989, of Research in
1990, and then senior vice president in 1993. Most pipeline projects today come
from research under his watch. He is driven by a need to know the answers
science can provide and the knowledge that those answers could help people. In
1995, he is focusing on maintaining that drive in all Genentech scientists:
                                                                          

"By all measures, Genentech scientists are extremely productive. Given their
qualifications, dedication and drive, that's not surprising. But we can't get
complacent. I put a lot of effort into keeping motivational levels high,
reflecting my belief that the productivity of a research organization is a
function of the motivation and creativity of individual scientists. Creativity
is a rare commodity to be nourished and prized.

    "Because our discovery scientists are so productive, we don't have resources
to develop all their good projects ourselves, which could be  demotivating. But
we've been clear in communicating our criteria for development. We're fostering
a culture where the scientists recognize when a project won't meet those
criteria. Those exceptional projects that we can't develop internally, we
outlicense, which the scientists recognize as the success it is. When we drop a
project, they know that it's their responsibility -- not management's -- to 
identify new opportunities.

    "Keeping a clear focus and working with new technologies also helps
motivational levels. Each year we evaluate emerging technologies and identify
those for which we should develop an expertise in-house. We choose those that 
can help us make discoveries in our areas of focus. Or we may collaborate with
companies that have technology of potential future value. Biotechnology today is
different than five years ago, and it will be different still in five years.
Given our scientific staff and expertise in key areas, we'll continue to define
this evolution."

Senior Vice President and Secretary
Legal, Business Development, Corporate Communications,
Government Affairs                                 


Early in his career, while working in Congress, John McLaughlin drafted the
U.S. Orphan Drug law giving pharmaceutical companies incentives to develop drugs
targeting small patient populations -- a law that has benefited many patients
who use Genentech products. Later, John left private law practice to join
Genentech as vice president of Government Affairs in 1987. He opened the
company's Government Affairs office in Washington, D.C., and spent his first
few months on a team working with the FDA to secure approval for Activase. He
moved to California in 1989 when he was named vice president, general counsel
and secretary. In 1993 he became senior vice president. For 1995, John is 
focusing on maximizing commercial opportunities for Genentech through productive
relationships and by protecting intellectual property rights:


"Hard realities are forcing a retrenchment in the biotechnology industry. This
creates opportunities for collaborations. We want to make sure Genentech is well
positioned to collaborate on medically important products. A priority for me in
1995 is to identify opportunities where there's a fit for Genentech and where we
can bring to bear some of our resources -- our strength in science, in
development and manufacturing, our financial resources -- to pursue these great
opportunities toward marketed products, to the benefit of both patients and
stockholders.

     "Genentech has an enviable product portfolio. And our legal group works
hard and successfully to ensure our innovative science is protected by the
patent system. The recent settlement with Lilly demonstrates the value of these
efforts. In 1995, we will continue to defend and build on our patent portfolio
to maximize the commercial potential of our product pipeline.

     "Not all of the projects coming out of research -- our own or our
collaborators -- will make it into or through our development pipeline. Another
priority for 1995 is to ensure we realize the value of projects that don't meet
our development criteria, but that are still promising, through outlicensing
agreements with other companies. Again this will benefit both patients and our
stockholders.

     "We've always been proud of all we accomplish at Genentech. But not so
proud to think that we can do it all. Productive relationships add tremendous
value to our efforts."

                   Drug Safety and Post-marketing Programs


When Barry Sherman joined Genentech in 1985 as director of clinical research
from the University of Iowa College of Medicine, the company had few projects in
the clinic. Today it has about a dozen, with several in overlapping stages.
Named vice president of Medical Affairs in 1989 and senior vice president in
1995, Barry believes the wider impact his efforts at Genentech have on human
health more than make up for the fact that he is no longer involved in direct
patient care. Barry's responsibilities include all aspects of clinical
development and medical issues related to marketed products. His project goals
for 1995 are outlined on the poster inside this report. He also has overarching
goals that relate to asking the right questions:


"With several projects moving simultaneously through the clinic, we have to
design trials to help focus our efforts. You can't always expect positive
results from clinical trials. Our goal isn't to execute a trial to show that a
drug will work, although we hope it will. Our goal is to conduct a trial to show
whether or not a drug is safe and will work. And to do so early, in smaller,
Phase II trials, rather than in large, expensive Phase III trials. This lets us
make intelligent stop-or-go decisions before we've invested heavily. And it
minimizes the chance of unexpected results from Phase III trials.

     "To design trials that will give the right answers, we emphasize early
planning.  If we understand the disease we're investigating, we can target the
right clinical endpoints --what we're going to measure and what kinds of changes
we're going to look for. In this endeavor, if the first few questions you ask
aren't the right ones, asking more later is costly in terms of both dollars and
health.

     "We collaborate with regulatory agencies throughout clinical development to
make sure we'll provide the answers they need. Choosing the right clinical
endpoints in Phase II and Phase III trials is essential to definitively prove
safety and efficacy. Now that our drug development is international, we need to
be certain our trials are consistent with medical and regulatory thinking in
other countries.

     "Unless we're incredibly lucky, all the projects in our pipeline won't make
it to market. We're managing product development so we'll always focus on those
most likely to get to market, and so that we'll get them to patients as quickly
as possible."

In 1980, after collaborating with Genentech to manufacture human insulin for Eli
Lilly and Company, Bill Young came to Genentech as director of Manufacturing.
His first projects were the manufacture of growth hormone and, a couple years
later, of Activase. The success of these projects provided enough product to
supply fast clinical trial schedules and, upon approval, patients who needed the
drugs. These projects stamped a pattern Genentech's manufacturing group would
follow with product after product. In 1983, Bill became vice president of
manufacturing and process science, and in 1988 was promoted to senior vice
president. For 1995, he's seeking balance:


"With our new location for manufacturing expansion identified, our challenge is
to increase manufacturing capacity in a way that keeps one eye on clinical
progress, yet can make enough of each pipeline product as needed. We'll work
closely with Medical Affairs to strike the right balance. In the shorter term,
during 1995, we'll have several projects in Phase III clinical trials that we'll
need to manufacture on a commercial scale. We're developing that capability in
existing facilities now. For those projects not as far along, we need to develop
processes to make large amounts of product at low cost by continually exploring
and applying new technology. As always, ensuring high quality will be a
priority.

     "I have two main goals for regulatory affairs. First: Develop a
relationship with the FDA regarding sales and marketing efforts that's as good
as the one we have regarding product development. We've evolved our efforts with
the FDA's changing approach to monitoring pharmaceutical promotional practices.
We'll continue to do so, in productive dialogue with the FDA. Second: Assure
that Regulatory Affairs becomes globally integrated in its thinking, decisions
and actions with respect to product development. Again there's a balance to
strike: We must ensure we don't let one country's differing requirements slow an
entire project.

     "We're managing several projects at once, many globally. In all areas we'll
continue to look for ways to reduce development time. We'll strive to balance
the needs of each project to keep them all on track."

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

OVERVIEW
Genentech, Inc. (the Company) is an international biotechnology company that
discovers, develops, manufactures and markets human pharmaceuticals for
significant medical needs. The science of biotechnological product discovery 
and development is at the core of the Company's business and has led to ten of 
the approved human pharmaceutical products of biotechnology. The Company 
manufactures and markets five of these products directly and receives
royalties from the sales of five products which have originated from the 
Company's technology.

Revenues have increased in each year since the Company's inception. The 
increase in 1994 revenues resulted primarily from higher product sales. The 
increase in 1993 revenues resulted primarily from higher product sales,
royalty income and contract revenues.

</TABLE>

Activase  The increase in Activase,(R) sales in 1994 and 1993 is attributable 
to an increase in the number of patients being treated with Activase as a 
result of the completion of the worldwide Global Utilization of Streptokinase 
and Activase for occluded coronary arteries (GUSTO) clinical trial and the 
reporting of its results in 1993. During 1994, Activase market share increased 
to over 70% from approximately 66% and 50% in 1993 and 1992, respectively,
in the United States.

Protropin and Nutropin  Net sales of Protropin,(R) and Nutropin,(R) continued 
to increase in 1994 due primarily to the introduction of Nutropin for the 
treatment of chronic renal insufficiency and to more growth hormone inadequate 
patients starting treatment. The Company has not faced new competition in the 
growth hormone market, although this possibility exists for 1995. If additional
competitors enter the growth hormone market, the Company expects that such 
competition will have an adverse effect on its sales of Protropin and Nutropin 
which, depending on the extent and type of competition, could be material to 
the Company's total growth hormone sales. Factors that may influence future 
Protropin and Nutropin sales include: the number and market entry dates of new 
competitive products and their effect on the Company's market share and 
pricing; the availability of third party reimbursement for the costs of such 
therapies; and the outcome of litigation involving the Company's patents for 
growth hormone and related processes.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Pulmozyme  Pulmozyme,(R) was launched during 1994 in the United States, Canada
and certain European countries. In 1994, sales totaled $88.3 million. In
1995, as approvals for marketing the product in other European countries are
received, and a full year of sales is achieved in countries in which Pulmozyme
sales began in 1994, the Company expects sales to grow. Other factors that may
influence future sales of Pulmozyme for the management of cystic fibrosis
include: the number and kinds of patients benefiting from such therapy; the
availability of third party reimbursement for the costs of such therapies,
physicians' personal experiences in the use and results of the therapy; the
development of alternate therapies for the treatment and cure of cystic
fibrosis; the development of additional indications for using Pulmozyme; and
the cost of Pulmozyme therapy. To protect the Company from adverse changes in
foreign currency exchange rates, the Company has purchased simple put options
to hedge anticipated non-dollar denominated revenue. All options mature within
one year. See Note 6 in the  "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for
further information.
        
Actimmune  Actimmune,(R) sales increased in 1994 and 1993 primarily due to the
sales of interferon gamma to licensee Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH, 
which has approval to market interferon gamma in several countries in its 
licensed territory.

</TABLE>

The Company receives royalty payments from the sales of various human health 
care products. These payments have increased in each of the past three years 
primarily due to increases in product sales by the Company's licensees. In 
1994, the largest dollar increase was attributable to royalties earned from the 
sales of recombinant human insulin. In 1993, the largest dollar increase was 
attributable to hepatitis B vaccine royalties. Cash flows from royalty income 
include non-dollar denominated revenues. The Company currently purchases simple 
foreign currency put options to hedge these cash flows, all of which expire 
within the next two years. Royalty expense obligations associated with these 
revenues are included in marketing, general and administrative expenses. In 
December 1994, the Company and Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) reached an 
agreement regarding all patent infringement and contract actions between the 
two parties, which included the Company granting to Lilly licenses, options to 
license, or immunities from suit for certain of the Company's patents. Future 
payments are required from Lilly on sales of these products. See Note 12 in the 
"Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for further information. 

     Contract revenues in 1993 included $18.2 million related to fixed license 
fees receivable through 1996 from Schering Corporation and its affiliates for a 
world-wide license to certain patented technology and processes used to produce 
recombinant interferon alpha. Contract and other revenues will continue to 
fluctuate due to variations in the timing of contract benchmark achievements, 
the initiation of new contractual arrangements, and the conclusion of existing 
arrangements.

     Interest income was slightly higher in 1994 due to a larger investment 
portfolio in 1994 more than offsetting the decline in the average portfolio 
yield. Similarly, interest income was lower in 1993 compared to 1992 primarily 
due to the lower average portfolio yield in 1993. 




                                      34
<PAGE>   46

The Company enters into interest rate swaps as part of its overall strategy of
managing the duration of its investment portfolio. See Note 6 in the "Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements" for further information. Due to the
approximately two-year effective average duration of the portfolio, which
includes the impact of the swaps, the average yield on the portfolio in any one
year is primarily a function of financial instruments purchased in prior years.
The average portfolio yield decline in 1993 and 1994 reflected the generally
continuous decline in interest rates between 1990 and the first quarter of 1994.
As discussed in Note 6, during 1994, the Company terminated certain swaps which
resulted in an unamortized loss of $6.2 million being recorded at December 31,
1994. The amortization of these losses over the next four years will reduce
yields during those years.

</TABLE>

Cost of Sales  Cost of sales increased in 1994 and 1993 primarily due to 
increased product sales and provisions for inventory obsolescence.

Research and Development  The increase in R&D expenses in 1994 and 1993 
reflects the Company's continued commitment to developing new products and new 
indications for existing products. Overall increases resulted from the higher 
level of activity and associated costs of products in the later stages of 
clinical trials and the manufacture of products for clinical trials. As a 
percentage of revenues, research and development has declined over the last 
three years due to increasing revenues combined with the Company's disciplined 
approach to its research and development investment. The Company now has 12 
products in the clinic and two products in preclinical development. At the end 
of 1993 the Company had nine products in the clinic and four products in 
preclinical development.

     To gain additional access to potential new products and technologies, the
Company has established research collaborations, including equity investments,
with companies developing technologies that fall outside the Company's research
focus and with companies having the potential to generate new products through
technology exchanges and investments. The Company has also entered into 
product-specific collaborations to acquire development and marketing rights for 
products. In December 1994, the Company entered into a collaboration with Scios 
Nova Inc. (Scios Nova) for the U.S. and Canadian development of Scios Nova's 
Auriculin,(R) (anaritide) for the treatment of acute renal failure, which is 
currently in Phase III clinical trials. See Note 2 in the "Notes to 
Consolidated Financial Statements" for a further description of this 
collaboration.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Marketing, General and Administrative:  Marketing, general and administrative
expenses increased in 1994 primarily due to the launch of Pulmozyme in Europe 
and higher corporate expenses, including litigation related expenses, and $12.6 
million in charges due to the write-down of marketable equity securities of 
several of the biotechnology companies that are strategic alliance partners of 
the Company. The  declines in the fair value of such securities were considered 
other than temporary. The increase in 1993 compared to 1992 was primarily due 
to additional Activase marketing expenses, Pulmozyme marketing costs in 
preparation for the anticipated U.S. and European product launches in 1994, and 
increased growth hormone marketing expenses in anticipation of future 
competition.

     Interest expense in 1994, 1993 and 1992, net of amounts capitalized,
relates primarily to interest on the Company's 5% convertible subordinated
debentures.

</TABLE>

Approximately $26 million of the valuation allowance at December 31, 1994, 
reflected above relates to the tax benefits of stock option deductions which 
will be credited to additional paid-in capital when realized.

     Realization of the net deferred taxes, future effective tax rates, and
future reversals of the valuation allowance (that is, recognition of deferred
tax assets) depend on future earnings from existing and new products and new 
indications for existing products. The timing and amount of future earnings 
will depend on continued success in marketing and sales of the Company's 
current products, scientific success, results of clinical trials and regulatory 
approval of products under development.

     The net increase in the effective tax rate from 1993 to 1994 was primarily 
related to limitations on the utilization of existing carryforwards related to 
the U.S. alternative minimum tax. Expected increases in future effective tax 
rates are also attributable to these limitations. Additionally, possible 
changes in tax legislation could affect the Company's effective tax rate. Based 
on current projections, the Company estimates its 1995 effective tax rate to be 
around 15%.

Net income as a percent of revenue has increased each year as careful expense 
management, particularly R&D expense management, has allowed an increasing 
proportion of revenues to flow to net income. Earnings in 1995 will depend on a 
continuation of the positive impact of the GUSTO trial results on Activase
sales, sales of Pulmozyme, Protropin and Nutropin competition, and the level of 
costs and expenses.

</TABLE>

Cash generated from operating activities was used to purchase short-term 
investments, long-term marketable securities, and property, plant and 
equipment, increasing the amount of cash used in investing activities. Cash 
provided by financing activities increased from the issuance of redeemable 
common stock under employee stock plans and the exercise of warrants.

     Capital expenditures in 1994 include costs incurred for additional 
manufacturing facilities and the addition of a central process utility plant. 
Capital expenditures decreased in 1993 as compared to 1992 primarily due to 
completing construction in 1992 of the Founders Research Center, a state-of-
the-art facility housing many of the Company's research activities, and  
substantially completing in 1992 new manufacturing facilities for Pulmozyme.

PROSPECTIVE INFORMATION

Market Potential/Risk  Over the longer term, the Company's (and its partners') 
ability to successfully market current products, expand their usage, and bring 
new products to the marketplace will depend on many factors, including the 
effectiveness and safety of the products, FDA and foreign regulatory agencies' 
approvals for new indications, the degree of patent protection afforded to 
particular products, Orphan Drug Act legislation, the possible future 
enactments of biotechnology product protection in the United States as well as 
in Europe and Japan, and the outcome in the United States of potential health 
care reform legislation.  The Company believes it has strong patent protection 
or the potential for strong patent protection for a number of its products that 
generate royalty revenue or that the Company is developing; however, the courts 
will determine the ultimate strength of patent protection of the Company's 
products and those on which the Company earns royalties. A product that has 
received an Orphan Drug designation for a specific indication, when approved, 
will be protected from FDA approval of similar products for similar indications 
during the first seven years of product sales in the United States. Loss of 
Orphan Drug Act protection for the Company's products that are currently 
marketed or in development, resulting from expiration of Orphan Drug status or 
amendment of the Orphan Drug Act, could lead to increased competition for those 
products and potentially lower future product revenues.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Roche Holdings, Inc.  At December 31, 1994, the Company was 65% owned by Roche 
Holdings, Inc. (Roche). See Note 9 in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial 
Statements" for further information.

Foreign Exchange  The Company receives revenues from countries throughout the 
world. As a result, risk exists that revenues may be impacted by changes in the 
exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. To mitigate this 
risk, the Company hedges certain of these revenues as discussed in Note 6 in 
the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements."

Legal Proceedings  The Company is a party to various legal proceedings. See 
Note 12 in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for further 
information.

General  The Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term 
and long-term investments, together with funds provided by operations and 
leasing arrangements, will be sufficient to meet its operating cash 
requirements, including capital expenditures and the development of existing 
and new products through internal research and development activities, product 
in-licensing, research collaborations, equity investments and geographic 
expansion.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

Genentech, Inc. is responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair
presentation of its published financial statements. The Company has prepared 
the financial statements, presented on pages 33 to 60, in accordance with 
generally accepted accounting principles. As such, the statements include 
amounts based on judgments and estimates made by management. The Company also 
prepared the other information included in the annual report and is responsible 
for its accuracy and consistency with the financial statements.

     The financial statements have been audited by the independent auditing
firm, Ernst & Young LLP, which was given unrestricted access to all financial
records and related data, including minutes of all meetings of stockholders,
the Board of Directors and committees of the Board. The Company believes that
all representations made to the independent auditors during their audit were
valid and appropriate. Ernst & Young LLP's audit report appears on page 61.

     Systems of internal accounting controls, applied by operating and
financial management, are designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the
integrity and reliability of the financial statements and reasonable, but not
absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded from unauthorized use or
disposition, and that transactions are recorded according to management's
policies and procedures. The Company continually reviews and modifies these
systems, where appropriate, to maintain such assurance. Through the Company's
audit activities, the adequacy and effectiveness of the systems and controls
are reviewed and the resultant findings to management and the Audit Committee
of the Board of Directors.
        
     The selection of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's independent auditors
has been approved by the Company's Board of Directors and ratified by the 
stockholders. An Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, composed of four 
non-management directors, meets regularly with, and reviews the activities of, 
corporate financial management, the general audit function and the independent 
auditors to ascertain that each is properly discharging its responsibilities. 
The independent auditors separately meet with the Audit Committee, with and 
without management present, to discuss the results of their work, the adequacy 
of internal accounting controls and the quality of financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation  The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries 
and collaborations. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have 
been eliminated. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents  The Company considers all highly liquid debt
instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.

Short-term Investments and Long-term Marketable Securities  The Company
invests its excess cash balances in short-term and long-term marketable 
securities. These investments primarily include corporate notes, certificates 
of deposit and treasury notes.

On January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standard (FAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity 
Securities." The effect of adopting this new standard was not material to net 
income. FAS 115 requires that all investment securities be classified into one 
of three categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, or trading.
Securities are considered held-to-maturity when the Company has the positive 
intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. These securities are 
recorded as either short-term investments or long-term marketable securities on 
the balance sheet depending upon their contractual maturity date. Held-to-
maturity securities are stated at amortized cost, adjusted for amortization of 
premiums and accretion of discounts. Securities are considered trading when  
bought principally for the purpose of selling in the near term. These 
securities are recorded as short-term investments and are carried at market 
value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are included 
in interest income. Securities not classified as held-to-maturity or as trading 
are considered available-for-sale. These securities are recorded as long-term 
marketable securities and are carried at market value with unrealized gains and 
losses included in stockholders' equity net of related tax effects. If a 
decline in fair value below cost is considered other than temporary, such 
securities are written down to estimated fair value with a charge to marketing, 
general and administrative expenses. Prior to adopting FAS 115, marketable debt 
securities were carried at amortized cost that approximated fair value. 
Marketable equity securities were carried at the lower of cost or market. The 
cost of all securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

Non-marketable Equity Investments  The carrying value, which approximates the 
fair value, is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The 
fair value of non-marketable equity investments is estimated based on the lower 
of amortized cost or the offering price in the most recent round of financing.

Property, Plant and Equipment  The costs of buildings and equipment are
depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 
the assets. Leasehold improvements are generally amortized over the length of 
the applicable lease. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as 
incurred. Interest on construction-in-progress of $0.6 million in 1994, $1.3 
million in 1993 and $3.4 million in 1992 has been capitalized and is included 
in property, plant and equipment.

Patents  As a result of its research and development (R&D) programs, the 
Company owns or is in the process of applying for patents in the United States 
and other countries which relate to products and processes of significant 
importance to the Company. Costs of patents and patent applications are 
capitalized and amortized for financial reporting purposes on a straight-line 
basis over their estimated useful lives of approximately 12 years.


                                      44
<PAGE>   56

Contract Revenue  Contract revenue for R&D is recorded as earned based on the 
performance requirements of the contract. In return for contract payments, 
contract partners may receive certain marketing and manufacturing rights, 
products for clinical use and testing or R&D services.

Income Taxes  The Company accounts for income taxes in conformance with FAS 
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the asset and liability 
approach for the financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.
Net Income Per Share:  Net income per share is computed based on the weighted
average number of shares of the Company's redeemable common stock, common stock
and redeemable common stock equivalents, if dilutive. The Company's convertible
subordinated debentures are redeemable common stock equivalents but have been
antidilutive to date; therefore, they have not been included in net income per 
share calculations.

Financial Instruments  Certain of the Company's revenues and expenses occur
outside of the United States. Since the Company's expenses denominated in 
foreign currencies are less than revenues denominated in foreign currencies,
risk exists that income may be impacted by changes in the exchange rates
between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. To mitigate this risk, the
Company purchases simple foreign currency put options (options) with 
expiration dates and amounts of currency that match a portion of expected 
revenues so that the adverse impact of movements in currency exchange rates on 
the non-dollar denominated revenues will be largely offset by an associated 
increase in the value of the options. Realized and unrealized gains related to 
the options are deferred until the designated hedged revenues are recorded. The 
associated costs, which are amortized over the term of the options, are 
recorded as a reduction of the hedged revenues. In prior years, the Company 
also purchased foreign currency forward contracts as hedging instruments. These 
contracts are currently recorded at fair value and the associated losses are 
reflected in the income statement.

Interest income is subject to fluctuations as U.S. interest rates change. To 
manage this risk, the Company periodically establishes duration targets for its 
investment portfolio that reflect its anticipated use of cash and fluctuations 
in market rates of interest. Swaps are used to adjust the duration of the 
investment portfolio in order to meet these duration targets. By combining a 
swap with a pool of short-term securities equal in size to the notional amount 
of the swap, an instrument with an effective interest rate and maturity equal 
to the term of the swap is created. The characteristics of the instrument 
(including interest rate, maturity, and fair value) are similar to the 
characteristics of a high grade corporate security which could be purchased at 
the same time the instrument is created. Increases (decreases) in swap variable 
payments caused by rising (falling) interest rates will be essentially offset 
by increased (reduced) interest income on the related short-term investments, 
while the fixed rate payments received from the swap counterparty establishes 
the Company's interest income. Net payments made or received on swaps are 
included in interest income as adjustments to the interest received on invested 
cash. Amounts deferred on terminated swaps are amortized to interest income 
over the original contractual term of the swaps by a method that approximates 
the level yield method.

401(k) Plan  The Company's 401(k) Plan covers substantially all its U.S. 
employees. Under the 401(k) Plan, eligible employees may contribute up to 15% 
of their eligible compensation, subject to certain Internal Revenue Service 
restrictions. The Company matches a portion of 


                                      45
<PAGE>   57
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

employee contributions, up to a maximum of 4% of each employee's eligible
compensation. The match is effective December 31 of each year and is fully
vested when made. During 1994, 1993 and 1992, the Company provided $5.2 million,
$4.4 million, and $4.1 million, respectively, for the Company match under the
401(k) Plan.

Note 1: Significant Customer and Geographic Information

One major customer in 1994, 1993 and 1992 contributed 10% or more of the
Company's total revenues. The portions of revenues attributable to this 
customer were 21% in 1994, 26% in 1993 and 31% in 1992. This customer
distributes Protropin, Nutropin, Pulmozyme and Actimmune through its extensive
branch network, and is then reimbursed through a variety of sources. A second 
customer, a wholesale distributor of all of the Company's products, contributed 
11% of revenues in 1994.

     Approximate foreign sources of revenues were as follows (millions):

Canada                   9.7        12.2        10.1
</TABLE>

The Company sells primarily to distributors and hospitals throughout the United 
States, Canada and Europe, performs ongoing credit evaluations of its 
customers' financial condition and generally requires no collateral. In 1994, 
1993 and 1992 the Company did not record any material additions to, or losses 
against, its provision for doubtful accounts.

Note 2: Research and Development Arrangements

To gain access to potential new products and technologies, the Company has
established research collaborations, including both marketable and non-
marketable equity investments, with companies developing technologies that fall 
outside the Company's research focus and with companies having the potential to 
generate new products through technology exchanges and investments. Potential 
future payments maybe due to selective collaborative partners if the partners 
achieve certain benchmarks as defined in the collabortive agreements.

     In addition to the collaborations with F. Hoffmann-La Roche, Ltd.
discussed in Note 10, in December 1994, the Company entered into a
collaboration with Scios Nova Inc. (Scios Nova) for the U.S. and Canadian
development of Scios Nova's Auriculin or the treatment of acute renal failure,
which is currently in Phase III clinical trials. Under the terms of the
collaboration, both companies will copromote Auriculin in the United States
and Canada, sharing profits from its commercialization. The Company received
exclusive rights to all markets outside the United States and Canada subject
to a royalty obligation to Scios Nova. In connection with the collaboration,
the Company purchased Scios Nova non-voting preferred stock, which is
convertible into shares of Scios Nova common stock, for $20 million and
charged approximately $5 million to research and development expense. The
Company established a line of credit for Scios Nova which is described in Note
8. In addition, the Company agreed to pay up to $50 million in benchmark
payments, conditional on achieving certain predetermined commercialization
goals.

The NOL and credit carryforwards, which totaled $123 million and $87 million, 
respectively, expire in the years 1995 through 2009, except for $20 million of 
alternative minimum tax credits which never expire. Approximately $26 million 
of the valuation allowance at December 31, 1994 reflected above relates to the 
tax benefits of stock option deductions which will be credited to additional 
paid-in capital when realized.

     The valuation allowance decreased by $38.5 million in 1994 and $10 million
in 1993. Realization of net deferred taxes, as well as future reversals of the 
valuation allowance (that is, recognition of deferred tax assets) depend on 
future earnings from existing and new products and new indications for existing 
products. The timing and amount of future earnings will depend on continued 
success in marketing and sales of the Company's current products, scientific 
success, results of clinical trials and regulatory approval of products under 
development.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

During 1994, no available-for-sale securities were sold and the Company 
recorded a $12.6 million charge to write down certain available-for-sale 
biotechnology securities for which the decline in fair value below cost was 
other than temporary.

     At December 31, 1993, the fair value of the short-term investments 
approximated carrying value. The fair value of the long-term marketable debt
securities totaled $63.4 million. The carrying value of marketable equity
securities at December 31, 1993, totaled $12.1 million and was included in
other assets. 
        
     The carrying value, which approximated the fair value, of non-marketable
equity securities totaled $6.8 million and $10.5 million at December 31, 1994 
and 1993, respectively.

     The Company invests its excess cash principally in marketable debt 
securities with terms ranging from overnight to three years. Marketable debt
securities held by the Company are issued by a diversified selection of
institutions with strong credit ratings. The Company's investment policy limits
the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. These debt securities
are generally not collateralized. The Company has not experienced any material
losses due to credit impairment on its investments in marketable debt
securities in the years 1994, 1993 and 1992.
        
Note 6: Financial Instruments

Foreign Currency Instruments  As discussed above, the Company currently 
purchases simple foreign currency put options (options) solely to hedge 
anticipated non-dollar denominated net revenues. At December 31, 1994, the
Company had hedged approximately 85% of net foreign revenues anticipated within 
12 months and 35% of net foreign revenues anticipated in the following 12 
months. At December 31, 1994, the notional amount of the options totaled $78.3 
million and consisted of the following currencies: Australian dollars, Canadian 
dollars, German marks, Spanish pesetas, French francs, British pounds, Italian 
lira, Japanese yen, and Swedish krona.  All contracts mature within the next 
two years. The fair value of the options, which is based on exchange rates and 
market conditions at December 31, 1994, totaled $1.6 million.

Previously, the Company had entered into foreign currency forward exchange 
contracts (forward contracts) as hedging instruments. Unrealized gains and 
losses were deferred until the revenue was recognized. In 1994, the Company 
closed out its positions by entering into offsetting contracts so that the net 
notional amount denominated in foreign currencies was zero. At December 31, 
1994, the U.S. dollar equivalent of the notional amount of the forward sell 
contracts totaled $28.3 million; the forward buy contracts totaled $29.8 
million. The difference, an unrealized loss of $1.5 million, was recorded as a 
reduction of net income in 1994 as a charge to marketing, general and 
administrative expenses and at December 31, 1994, is included in other accrued 
liabilities. All contracts mature within two years.


                                      50
<PAGE>   62

     At December 31, 1993, the Company had simple put option contracts with a 
notional amount of $6.8 million and forward contracts with a notional amount   
of $47.0 million to sell various foreign currencies within the next two years. 
At December 31, 1993, the fair value of the option contracts was $0.4 million 
and the fair value of the forward contracts was ($1.2) million.

     Credit exposure is limited to the unrealized gains on these contracts. All 
agreements are with a diversified selection of institutions with strong credit 
ratings which minimizes risk of loss due to nonpayment from the counterparty.
The Company has not experienced any material losses due to credit impairment of 
its foreign currency instruments.

Interest Rate Swaps  The Company enters into interest rate swaps (swaps) as
part of its overall strategy of managing the duration of its cash  portfolio.
For each swap, the Company receives interest based on fixed rates and pays
interest to counterparties based on floating rates (three or six month LIBOR)
on a notional principal amount. By combining a swap with a pool of short-term
securities equal in size to the notional amount of the swap, an instrument with
an effective interest rate and maturity equal to the term of the swap is
created. The use of swaps in this manner generates net interest income on the
swap and associated pool of short-term securities equivalent to interest income
that would be earned from a high grade corporate security of the same maturity
as the swap, while reducing credit risk (there is no principal invested in a
swap). The Company's credit exposure on swaps is limited to the value of the
interest rate swaps that have become favorable to the Company and any net
interest earned but not yet received. Swap counterparties typically have strong
credit ratings which minimize the risk of non-performance on the swaps. The
Company has not experienced any material losses due to credit impairment.
        
     The Company targets the average maturity of its investment portfolio 
(including swaps) based on its anticipated use of cash and fluctuations in
the market rates of interest. The maturity of the investment portfolio
(including swaps) ranges from overnight funds used for near-term working
capital purposes, investments maturing within the next one to five years for
future working capital, capital expenditures and strategic investments, to
maturities of up to seven years which is comparable to the remaining term of
the Company's outstanding convertible debt. Due to the increase in market
interest rates during 1994 and concern about a continuing rise in rates, the
Company gradually reduced the average effective maturity of its investment
portfolio (including swaps) from 2.8 years at December 31, 1993 to 1.9 years
at December 31, 1994, which approximates the lower end of the range of the
Company's average anticipated cash needs.
        
     The notional amount of each swap is equal to the amount of designated high 
quality short-term investments which either mature or reprice within the next 
six months. The investments include U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government 
agency securities, commercial paper and corporate debt obligations. Swaps are 
used to extend the maturity of the investment portfolio; no speculative 
activity occurs.

*  3 and 6-month LIBOR rates are reset every 3 or 6 months. At December 31, 
   1994, the 3-month LIBOR rate was 6.5% and the 6-month LIBOR rate was 7.0%.

** Average maturity reflects either the maturity date or, for a floating 
   investment, the next reset date.


For the year ended December 31, 1994, the weighted average rate received 
on swaps was 6.30% and the weighted average rate paid on swaps was 5.12%. Net 
interest income received from swaps totaled $4.3 million in 1994.

     The carrying amount of the swaps, which reflects the net interest 
accrued for such swaps, totaled $6.2 million and $7.5 million at December 31, 
1994 and 1993, respectively, and is included in accounts receivable. At 
December 31, 1993, the notional amount totaled $350 million and the fair 
value totaled $13.0 million.

     During 1994, to reduce the average effective maturity of its portfolio, 
the Company terminated certain swap agreements prior to maturity and is 
amortizing the realized gains and losses over the original contractual term 
of the swaps as a reduction of interest income. At December 31, 1994, net 
losses of $6.2 million remained unamortized; $3.1 million will be recognized 
in 1995 and $3.1 million will be recognized during the following three years.

Financial Instruments Held for Trading Purposes As part of its overall 
investment strategy, in 1994 the Company contracted with two external money 
managers to manage part of its investment portfolio. One portfolio, which had a 
carrying value of $31 million at December 31, 1994, consisted of both U.S. 
dollar and non-dollar denominated investments. To hedge the non-dollar 
denominated investments, the money manager purchases forward contracts. The 
fair value at December 31, 1994, of the forward contracts totaled $2.7 
million; the average fair 


                                      52

<PAGE>   64

value during the year totaled $15.3 million. Net realized and unrealized trading
gains totaled approximately $389,000 in 1994 and are included in interest
income. Counterparties have strong credit ratings which minimizes the risk of
non-performance from the counterparties.

Summary of Fair Values The table below summarizes the carrying value and fair 
value at December 31, 1994, of the Company's financial instruments. The fair 
value of the long-term debt was estimated based on the quoted market price at 
year end.

Maturities of long-term debt in 1995 and 1996 are $0.9 million and $0.3 
million, respectively. Exclusive of the convertible subordinated debentures, no 
long-term debt maturities are due in 1997 and thereafter. The fair value of the 
Company debt was $146 million at December 31, 1993.

     Convertible subordinated debentures are convertible at the option of the 
holder into shares of the Company's redeemable common stock at a conversion 
price of $74 in principal amount of the debenture. Upon conversion, the holder 
receives, for each $74 in principal amount of the debenture converted, one-half
share of redeemable common stock and $18 in cash. Under the terms of the 
Merger (see Note 9), the $18 in cash is reimbursed by Roche Holdings, Inc. 
(Roche) to the Company. Generally, the Company may redeem the debentures until 
maturity.

</TABLE>

The Company has leased certain real property. Under many of its lease 
arrangements, the Company is responsible for taxes, insurance and maintenance 
related to the leased properties. Rent expense under operating leases was 
approximately $6.5 million, $5.1 million and $9.4 million for 1994, 1993 and 
1992, respectively. Income from subleases was immaterial.

     Under two of its lease agreements, the Company is contingently liable to 
purchase three buildings at the end of their lease terms. These leases expire 
in 1995, but the Company has the option to extend one lease until 1997 and the 
other until 1998. If at the end of the final lease renewal term the Company 
does not purchase the property or arrange a third party purchase, then the 
Company would be obligated to the lessor for a guaranteed payment equal to a 
specified percentage of the lessor's purchase price for the properties. The 
Company would also be obligated to the lessor for all or some portion of this 
amount if the price paid by a third party for the property is below a specified 
percentage of the lessor's purchase price. Under these leases, the Company is 
also required to maintain certain financial ratios and is subject to limits on 
certain types and amounts of debt. The properties under these leases include a 
process science laboratory, which is scheduled for completion in 1995, and two 
office buildings. As of December 31, 1994, the total amount related to these 
leased facilities, for which the Company would be contingently liable, is $65.0 
million. In connection with one of the leases, the Company has pledged 
securities worth $42.4 million as of December 31, 1994.

     The Company expects to develop a new manufacturing facility over the next 
three years with a total expected cost of $150 million. In connection 
therewith, the Company expects to enter into an operating lease arrangement 
similar to the arrangements described above.

     Pursuant to its collaboration agreement with Scios Nova (see Note 2), the 
Company established a line of credit for $30 million that Scios Nova may draw 
down at Scios Nova's discretion through 2002. This commitment is supported 
through December 31, 1997, by a bank letter of credit under which Scios Nova 
may draw up to $30 million directly from the bank, with immediate repayment of 
the funds due to the bank by the Company. Amounts drawn by Scios Nova under the 
bank letter of credit or directly from the Company are repayable in the form of 
cash or Scios Nova common stock (at the market price prevailing on the date of 
repayment) at Scios Nova's option any time through December 30, 2002. Interest 
on amounts borrowed by Scios Nova accrue to the Company at the prime rate of 
interest. At December 31, 1994, no amounts were drawn.

Note 9: Merger With Roche Holdings, Inc.

The Company's merger (Merger) with a wholly owned subsidiary of Roche Holdings, 
Inc. (Roche) was consummated on September 7, 1990 (Effective Date). Pursuant to 
the merger agreement with Roche, the Company's stockholders of record on the 
Effective Date received, for each 


                                      54
<PAGE>   66

share of common stock that they owned, $18 in cash from Roche and one-half share
of newly issued redeemable common stock from the Company. In the Merger, Roche
acquired one-half of the Company's outstanding common stock for $1,537.2
million. The redeemable common stock is substantially identical to the common
stock previously held by stockholders, except that it is redeemable by the
Company at the election of Roche, provided that Roche first deposits in trust
sufficient funds to pay the aggregate redemption price of all outstanding shares
of redeemable common stock. Roche has the right to require the Company to
exercise its redemption right, providing it does so for all shares of
outstanding redeemable common stock at $58.75 per share in the first calendar
quarter of 1995 and increasing to $60.00 per share on April 1, 1995. The
redemption right expires on June 30, 1995. For the period of July 1, 1995, until
June 30, 1996, Roche may submit a bid to purchase the remaining shares of the
Company. The bid must not be for less than $60.00 per share and is subject to
the approval of the Board of Directors and, subsequently, of non-Roche
stockholders.

     Independent of its right to have the Company redeem the redeemable common
stock, Roche is permitted to acquire additional shares of the Company's stock
through open market or privately negotiated purchases, provided that Roche's
aggregate holdings do not exceed 75% of the Company's stock outstanding
on a fully diluted basis.

     In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 24,433,951 shares of 
common stock to Roche for $487.3 million in cash. The common stock Roche 
acquired in the Merger and redeemable common stock purchased in the open 
market represents approximately 65% of the outstanding equity of the Company 
as of December 31, 1994.

Note 10: Related Party Transactions

The Company has transactions with related parties in the ordinary course of
business. Pursuant to contracts, principally regarding R&D projects
and product licensing agreements as described below, the Company recorded 
revenue of approximately $25.6 million in 1994, $14.4 million in 1993 and $12.6 
million in 1992 from the following related parties: F. Hoffmann-LaRoche, Ltd. 
(HLR) (a wholly owned subsidiary of Roche; two officers of HLR serve on the 
Company's Board of Directors - Note 9) and Genencor, Inc. (in which the Company 
formerly owned a 25% equity interest). The Company is also developing a 
mammalian cell line for HLR. In 1994, the Company and HLR began developing an 
anti-IgE antibody and Pulmozyme in Japan. During 1994 and 1993, the Company 
collaborated with HLR on four projects, including oral antagonists to platelet 
gpIIb/IIIa, IL-8, LFA/ICAM and ras farnesyltransferase. In 1992, the Company 
entered into a collaboration with HLR to codevelop and copromote Pulmozyme in 
Europe. In connection with this collaboration and the Company's efforts to 
expand its markets, Genentech Europe Limited (GEL) was established. GEL and 
affiliates are currently promoting Pulmozyme in the United Kingdom, Ireland, 
Germany and the Netherlands.  HLR is responsible for promoting the drug for 
cystic fibrosis in the remaining thirteen European countries in the 
collaboration. In addition to sharing profits related to Pulmozyme sales from 
all collaborative countries with HLR, the Company has received and will 
continue to receive milestone payments and technical support from HLR. Also, as 
part of the agreement with HLR, and in return for royalties on product sales, 
the Company has granted HLR an exclusive license to sell Pulmozyme in countries 
outside of Western Europe, the United States and Canada. The Company has three 
other R&D collaborations with HLR which were entered into in 1992.

1984 PLANS The 1984 Plans are the 1984 Incentive Stock Option Plan and the 
1984 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan. The Company may grant options under the 
1984 Incentive Stock Option Plan only to employees (including officers) of the 
Company. The Company may grant options under the 1984 Non-Qualified Stock 
Option Plan to employees (including officers) and consultants of the Company. 
Options granted under the 1984 Incentive Stock Option Plan and the 1984 Non-
Qualified Stock Option Plan have a maximum term of ten and 20 years,

</TABLE>

1990 PLAN The 1990 Stock Option/Stock Incentive Plan (1990 Plan) permits the
granting of options intended to qualify as incentive stock options and the
granting of options that do not so qualify. The Company may only grant incentive
options to employees (including officers and employee-directors). The Company
may only grant the non-qualified options and other non-option stock incentives
under the 1990 Plan to employees (including officers and employee-directors)
and consultants of the Company. All non-qualified options have a maximum term of
20 years and all incentive options have a maximum term of ten years. The options
generally become exercisable in increments over a period of four years from the
date of grant, with the first increment vesting after one year. The Company may
grant options with different vesting terms from time to time. The 1990 Plan
includes an Automatic Grant Program whereby each individual who was a
non-employee member of the Board on July 18, 1990, and/or on April 30, 1992, was
automatically granted, on each of those dates, a non-statutory option to
purchase 15,000 shares of redeemable common stock. These options have a term of
ten years from the date of grant and vest in equal increments over a three-year
period from the date of grant. Each non-employee member of the Board who is
elected to that position after April 30, 1992, will be automatically granted
such an option as will any employee member of the Board who becomes a
non-employee member of the Board immediately upon the change in status from
employee to non-employee. The 1990 Plan contains a special provision whereby the
Company's former Chairman of the Board was granted in 1990 a special non-
statutory option for 170,000 shares of redeemable common stock with a per share
exercise price of $25.70 in cancellation of outstanding options for the same
number of shares with an exercise price of $44.25.

In addition, the 1990 Plan permits the Company to grant stock appreciation 
rights in connection with non-qualified options or incentive options and issue 
shares of redeemable common stock, either fully vested at the time of issuance 
or vesting according to a pre-determined schedule. The Company may grant three 
types of stock appreciation rights under the 1990 Plan: tandem stock 
appreciation rights, concurrent stock appreciation rights and limited stock 
appreciation rights. At December 31, 1994, no stock appreciation rights for 
redeemable common stock have been granted under the 1990 Plan.


1994 PLAN The 1994 Stock Option Plan (1994 Plan) permits the granting of 
options intended to qualify as incentive stock options and the granting of 
options that do not so qualify. Incentive options may only be granted to 
employees (including officers and employee-directors). The non-qualified 
options may only be granted under the 1994 Plan to employees (including 
officers and employee-directors) and consultants of the Company. All non-
qualified options have a maximum term of 20 years and all incentive options 
have a maximum term of ten years. The options generally become exercisable in 
increments over a period of five years from the date of grant, with the first 
increment vesting after two years. Options may be granted with different 
vesting terms from time to time. The 1994 Plan includes an Automatic Grant 
Program whereby each individual who is a non-employee member of the Board on 
April 30, 1995 will be automatically granted a non-statutory option to 
purchase 15,000 shares of redeemable common stock. These options have a term of 
ten years from the date of grant and vest in equal increments over a three-year 
period from the date of grant. Each non-employee member of the Board who is 
elected to that position after April 30, 1995, will be automatically granted 
such an option as will any employee member of the Board who becomes a non-
employee member of the Board immediately upon the change in status from 
employee to non-employee. Beginning on April 30, 1995, non-employee members of 
the Board will no longer receive automatic option grants under the 1990 Plan.

Employee Stock Plans The Company adopted the 1991 Employee Stock Plan (1991 
Plan) on December 4, 1990, and amended it during 1993. All full-time employees 
of the Company are eligible to participate in the 1991 Plan. Of the 2,900,000 
shares of redeemable common stock reserved for issuance under the 1991 Plan, 
1,905,018 shares have been issued as of December 31, 1994.  During 1994, 
2,364 of the eligible employees participated in the 1991 Plan.

Warrants In consideration of the grant to the Company by certain limited 
partners of Genentech Clinical Partners IV (GCP IV) of an option to purchase 
all of such limited partners' interests in GCP IV, the Company issued warrants 
with each partnership interest to purchase an aggregate of 2,639,250 shares of 
common stock (subsequently converted to 1,319,625 shares of redeemable common 
stock under the terms of the Merger). All previously unexercisable warrants 
held by nondefaulted limited partners became exercisable upon termination of 
GCP IV's research program in September 1992. The warrants are exercisable 
through July 31, 1996. Redeemable common stock activity during 1994 related to 
the warrants is reflected in the following table:

Note 12: Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party to various legal proceedings including patent 
infringement cases involving growth hormone; Activase; and antibodies to IgE, a 
protein central to allergic reactions; and product liability cases involving 
Activase. In addition, the FDA is investigating the Company's promotional 
practices in connection with Activase, Protropin and Pulmozyme. The Company and 
its directors are defendants in two suits filed in California challenging their 
actions in connection with the Merger.

     In December 1994, the Company and Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) reached a 
settlement regarding all patent infringement and contract actions between the 
two parties. Under the terms of the settlement Lilly agreed to pay the Company 
up to $145 million ($25 million initially and 16 quarterly payments of $7.5 
million), subject to certain restrictions, and the Company granted Lilly 
licenses, options to license, or immunities from suit for certain of the 
Company's patents. Future payments are required from Lilly on sales of these 
products. The Company will continue to pursue patent invalidity and 
noninfringement claims against the Regents of the University of California 
(UC), which has sued Genentech for infringing a patent owned by UC relating to 
recombinant human growth hormone (hGH). In a related matter, the Company also 
settled a patent infringement action against Centocor, Inc. whereby the Company 
granted Centocor a royalty bearing license to its Cabilly patent for Centocor's 
monoclonal anti-IIb/IIIa antibody.

     On November 29, 1994, an administrative law judge of the International 
Trade Commission (ITC) found, on an incomplete record, that Bio-Technology 
General Corp. and its affiliate (BTG) infringed two of the Company's process 
patents, and Novo Nordisk A/S and certain of its affiliates (Novo) (BTG and 
Novo are collectively referred to as the Competitors) infringed one process 
patent covering hGH; however, the judge refused to recommend a ban on 
importation of hGH products for treatment of growth hormone inadequacy by the 
Competitors in the United States because the Company delayed in providing 
documents to the Competitors. The judge's recommendation was subject to review 
by the commissioners of the ITC. The Company filed a petition for review by the
full Commission of the judge's recommendations dismissing the complaint, but 
the Commission declined such review. On December 1, 1994, the Company filed suit
against the Competitors in the U.S. District Court in Delaware seeking damages 
from the Competitors, and asking for an injunction blocking the Competitors 
from marketing hGH in the United States Novo has brought suit against the 
Company in the U.S. District Court from Southern District New York, alleging 
that the patents in the ITC action are invalid and not infringed by Novo. BTG 
has brought suit against the Company in the U.S. District Court from the 
Southern District of New York seeking to prevent the Company from further 
patent infringement action against BTG and alleging unfair competition, 
antitrust and malicious prosecution claims.

     Based upon the nature of the claims made and the investigation completed 
to date by the Company and its counsel, the Company believes the outcome of the 
above actions will not have a material adverse effect on the financial 
position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Note 13: Quasi-reorganization

On February 18, 1988, the Company's Board of Directors approved the elimination 
of the Company's accumulated deficit through an accounting reorganization of 
its stockholders' equity accounts (a quasi-reorganization) effective October 1, 
1987, that did not involve any revaluation of assets or liabilities. The 
Company eliminated the accumulated deficit of $329.5 million by a transfer from 
additional paid-in capital in an amount equal to the accumulated deficit. 
Simultaneous with the quasi-reorganization, the Company FAS 96, providing for 
recognition of the tax benefits of operating loss and tax credit carryforward 
items that arose prior to a quasi-reorganization involving only the elimination 
of a deficit in retained earnings being reported in the income statement and 
then reclassified from retained earnings to additional paid-in capital. 

     Subsequently, in September 1989, the staff of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 86 (SAB 86) which states 
that a quasi-reorganization cannot involve only an elimination of a deficit in 
retained earnings and, therefore, the tax benefits of prior operating loss and 
tax credit carryforwards must be reported as a direct addition to additional 
paid-in capital rather than being recorded in the income statement.

     In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS 109 
which supersedes FAS 96. FAS 109 requires companies that have previously both 
adopted FAS 96 and effected a quasi-reorganization that involves only a deficit 
elimination, as did the Company, to continue to report the tax benefits of 
prior operating losses and tax credit carryforwards in a manner consistent with 
FAS 96. FAS 109 also provides that companies effecting a quasi-reorganization 
after February 1992 that involves only a deficit elimination shall report the 
tax benefits of prior operating losses and tax credit carryforwards in a manner 
consistent with SAB 86.

     The Company will continue to report in income the recognition of operating
loss and tax credit carryforward items arising prior to the quasi-
reorganization due to the Company's adoption of its quasi-reorganization in 
the context of its interpretation of FAS 96 and the quasi-reorganization 
literature existing at the date the quasi-reorganization was effected. The SEC 
staff has indicated that it would not object to the Company's accounting for 
such tax benefits. If the provisions of SAB 86 had been applied, net income 
for the year ended December 31, 1994, would have been reduced by $39.7 million 
or $.33 per share (1993-net income reduced by $20.6 million or $.18 per share; 
1992-net income reduced by $7.5 million or $.07 per share).

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF GENENTECH, INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Genentech, Inc. 
as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of 
income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the 
period ended December 31, 1994. These financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an 
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence 
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit 
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial 
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis 
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Genentech, Inc. 
At December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the consolidated results of its operations 
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 
1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                                     PART I
ITEM 1.   BUSINESS

Genentech, Inc. (the "Company") is an international biotechnology company that
discovers, develops, manufactures and markets human pharmaceuticals for 
significant unmet medical needs.  Genentech was organized in April 1976 as a
California corporation and was reincorporated in Delaware in January 1987.
The science of biotechnology product discovery and development is at the core
of the Company's business and has led to ten of the approved pharmaceutical
products of biotechnology.  In September 1990, Roche Holdings, Inc. (Roche)
acquired approximately 60% of the Company's voting stock in a merger
transaction (Merger).  The common stock Roche acquired in the Merger and
redeemable common stock subsequently purchased on the open market represented
approximately 65% of the outstanding equity of the Company as of March 13, 
1995. Roche has the option to purchase all shares of outstanding redeemable 
common stock at $58.75 per share in the first calendar quarter of 1995, 
increasing to $60.00 per share on April 1, 1995. The redemption right expires 
on June 30, 1995.  For the period of July 1, 1995 until June 30, 1996, Roche 
may submit a bid to purchase the remaining shares of the Company.  The bid 
must not be for less than $60.00 per share and is subject to the approval of 
the Board of Directors and, subsequently, the non-Roche shareholders.  
Independent of its right to have the Company redeem the redeemable common 
stock, Roche is permitted to acquire additional shares of the Company's stock 
through open market or privately negotiated purchases, provided that Roche's 
aggregate holdings do not exceed 75% of the Company's stock outstanding on a
fully diluted basis.  As used in this report, except where the context 
otherwise indicates, the "Company" means Genentech, Inc. and its subsidiaries,
including subsidiary operations in Europe, Canada and Japan.

Products

Genentech has five products that it has developed and currently manufactures
and markets in the United States: Activase, registered trademark, (Alteplase,
recombinant) recombinant tissue plasminogen activator; Protropin, registered
trademark, (somatrem for injection) recombinant growth hormone; Nutropin,
registered trademark, [somatropin (rDNA origin) for injection] human growth
hormone; Pulmozyme, registered trademark, (dornase alfa) inhalation solution;
and Actimmune, registered trademark, (Interferon gamma-1b) recombinant 
interferon gamma. Genentech also markets Activase, Protropin and Pulmozyme in
Canada.

Activase:  Tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) is an enzyme that is produced 
naturally by the body to dissolve blood clots.  However, when a blood clot 
obstructs blood flow in the coronary artery and causes a heart attack, the 
body is unable to produce enough t-PA to dissolve the clot rapidly enough to 
prevent damage to the heart.  Through recombinant DNA technology, Genentech 
produces Activase, a recombinant form of t-PA, in sufficient quantity for 
therapeutic use.  The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 
approved Activase for marketing in the United States in 1987 for the treatment
of acute myocardial infarction (AMI or heart attack) and in 1990 for use in 
the treatment of acute pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lungs).  Phase 
III clinical trials are currently underway to evaluate Activase for ischemic 
stroke (stroke caused by blood clots in the arteries to the brain).  Phase I 
studies are being performed to evaluate a second generation of t-PA which is 
anticipated to be easier to administer, work faster, cause less unwanted 
bleeding and require smaller doses than Activase.

<PAGE>   3

In exchange for royalty payments, Genentech has licensed marketing rights to 
recombinant t-PA in Japan to Kyowa Hakko Kogyo, Ltd. (Kyowa) and Mitsubishi 
Kasei Corporation (Mitsubishi).  Kyowa and Mitsubishi are marketing forms of 
recombinant t-PA under the trademarks Activacin, registered trademark, and 
GRTPA, registered trademark, respectively.  In a number of countries outside 
of the United States, Canada and Japan, Genentech has licensed t-PA marketing 
rights to Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH (Boehringer).  Boehringer 
markets recombinant t-PA under the trademark Actilyse, registered trademark.

Prior to February 1995 t-PA was marketed in Canada by Genentech under the 
Activase trademark and by Boehringer under the trademark Lysatec.  In February
1995, Genentech purchased all t-PA Canadian marketing rights from Boehringer.



Protropin:  Human growth hormone is a naturally occurring human protein 
produced in the pituitary gland.  It regulates metabolism and is responsible 
for growth in children.  A recombinant growth hormone product developed by 
Genentech, Protropin was approved by the FDA in 1985 for marketing in the 
United States for the treatment of growth hormone inadequacy in children.

In exchange for royalty payments, Genentech has licensed rights to recombinant
growth hormone outside the United States and Canada to Pharmacia AB (formerly
Kabivitrum AB), which manufactures and markets recombinant growth hormone 
under the trademarks Somatonorm, registered trademark, and Genotropin, 
registered trademark.  Under the terms of the agreement with Pharmacia, 
Genentech will have the right to begin selling growth hormone in certain 
European countries in late 1995, and Pharmacia will have the right in late 
1995 to begin selling their own growth hormone in the United States and Canada
provided they have received regulatory approval.

Nutropin:  Nutropin is a human growth hormone similar to Protropin; however, 
it does not have the additional amino acid, methionine, found in the Protropin
chemical structure.  It was approved by the FDA in March 1994 for marketing 
for the treatment of growth hormone inadequacy in children. Nutropin was 
approved in November 1993 and launched in January 1994 for marketing in the 
United States for the treatment of growth hormone inadequacy in children due 
to chronic renal insufficiency (CRI); CRI causes irreversible damage to the 
kidneys and a variety of medical problems, including growth hormone 
inadequacy.  The condition affects an estimated 3,000 children in the United 
States.  Nutropin has been designated an Orphan Drug for treatment of growth 
hormone inadequacy in children with CRI in the United States.  The Company is
awaiting regulatory approvals to market a liquid formulation of Nutropin, 
aimed at providing improved convenience in administration.  Phase III clinical
trials are underway to evaluate Nutropin as a treatment for children with 
short stature associated with Turner Syndrome (a genetic disorder). Phase II 
clinical trials are currently underway with Nutropin to treat growth hormone 
inadequacy in adults.

Pulmozyme:  Pulmozyme is marketed in the United States, Canada and Europe for
the management of cystic fibrosis, for which it has Orphan Drug designation in
the United States.  There are an estimated 53,000 patients with cystic 
fibrosis worldwide, a significant portion of whom are expected to be 
candidates for treatment.  

In 1992, the Company entered into a collaboration with F. Hoffmann-LaRoche, 
Ltd. (HLR) to codevelop and copromote Pulmozyme in Europe.  In connection with
this collaboration and the Company's efforts to expand its markets, Genentech
Europe Limited (GEL), a Bermuda company, was established.  GEL and affiliates
are currently copromoting Pulmozyme in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany 
and the Netherlands.  Presently, HLR is responsible for promoting the drug for
cystic fibrosis in the remaining western European countries in the 
collaboration.  In addition to sharing profits related to Pulmozyme sales from
all Western European collaborative countries with HLR, the Company has 
received and will continue to receive milestone payments and technical support
from HLR.  Also, as part of the agreement with HLR, and in return for 

<PAGE>   4

royalties on product sales, the Company has granted HLR an exclusive license
to distribute Pulmozyme in countries outside of Western Europe, the United 
States and Canada.

Phase III international trials are ongoing to study the use of Pulmozyme to 
treat Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), a clinical syndrome of 
airway inflammation, infection and obstruction that leads to lung destruction.

Actimmune:  Actimmune is approved in the United States for the treatment of 
chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), a rare, inherited disorder of the immune 
system which affects an estimated 250 to 400 Americans.  Actimmune received 
designation by the FDA in 1990 as an Orphan Drug for the treatment of CGD in 
the United States.  Phase III clinical trials are ongoing to investigate the 
use of Actimmune to treat renal cell carcinoma, a cancer of the kidneys.  
Depending on clinical trial results, the Company hopes to expand the market 
potential of Actimmune over time by obtaining new approvals for indications 
with larger populations, but such expansion is not assured.  Additionally, the 
Company receives royalty payments from Boehringer from the sale of interferon 
gamma in certain countries outside of the United States, Canada and Japan.



Licensed Products:  

In addition to the royalties mentioned above, the Company also receives 
royalties on the following human health care products:

In December 1994, the Company and Lilly reached an agreement regarding all 
patent infringement and breach of contract actions then pending between the 
two parties. Under the terms of the settlement, Lilly agreed to pay the 
Company up to $145 million ($25 million initially and 16 quarterly payments of 
$7.5 million), subject to certain restrictions, and the Company granted Lilly 
licenses, options to licenses, or immunities from suit for certain of the 
Company's patents. Future payments are required from Lilly on sales of these 
products. See "Item 3  Legal Proceedings" for further information.

Products in Development:  As part of Genentech's program of research and 
development, a number of other products are in various stages of development.  
Product development efforts cover a wide range of disorders or medical 
conditions, including cancer, respiratory disorders, cardiovascular diseases, 
endocrine disorders, inflammatory and immune problems, AIDS and neurological 
disorders.

In addition to the new indications for existing products discussed above,
below is a summary of products in clinical development:

                                    Company and IDEC Pharmaceuticals Corporation).
</TABLE>


Preclinical development products include an anti-VEGF humanized monoclonal 
antibody to treat cancer and diabetic retinopathies, a ras farnesyltransferase
inhibitor for pancreatic and colon cancers, thrombopoietin for 
thrombocytopenia related to cancer treatment, and an oral IIb/IIIa antagonist
for cardiovascular indications.

In cases where a product does not fit with Genentech's marketing strategy, the
Company may license the product to another company. These contract partners 
are chosen for their ability to both fund and perform advanced product 
development and to facilitate effective entry into major markets. Genentech 
has agreed to negotiate in good faith with Roche for a period of at least 
three months, but no more than six months, with a view towards reaching a 
mutually beneficial licensing or marketing arrangement, prior to entering into
any material licensing or marketing agreement with a third party for any 
products, processes, inventions or developments made by Genentech or its 
subsidiaries. In the past Genentech has licensed the foreign rights to some of
its products to major foreign pharmaceutical companies and actively 
coordinated development and clinical programs with these partners. In some 
cases Genentech has retained manufacturing rights to the licensed products. 
The Company has retained United States and European marketing rights for most
of its products currently under development. These European marketing rights 
represent a significant expansion opportunity for the Company.

In December 1994, the Company entered into a collaboration with Scios Nova 
Inc. (Scios Nova) for the United States and Canadian development of Scios 
Nova's Auriculin for the treatment of acute renal failure, which is currently 
in Phase III clinical trials. Under the terms of the collaboration, both 
companies will copromote Auriculin in the United States and Canada, sharing 
profits from its commercialization. The Company received exclusive rights to 
all markets outside the United States and Canada subject to a royalty 
obligation to Scios Nova. In connection with the collaboration, Genentech 
purchased Scios Nova non-voting preferred stock, which is convertible into 
shares of Scios Nova common stock, for $20 million. The Company established a
line of credit for $30 million that Scios Nova may draw down at Scios Nova's 
discretion through 2002. This commitment is supported through December 31, 
1997, by a bank letter of credit under which Scios Nova may draw up to $30 

<PAGE>   6

million directly from the bank, with immediate repayment of the funds due to 
the bank by the Company. Amounts drawn by Scios Nova under the bank letter of 
credit or directly from the Company are repayable in the form of cash or Scios
Nova common stock (at the market price prevailing on the date of repayment) at
Scios Nova's option any time through December 30, 2002. Interest on amounts 
borrowed by Scios Nova accrue to the Company at the prime rate of interest. At
December 31, 1994, no amounts were drawn. In addition, the Company agreed to 
pay up to $50 million in benchmark payments, conditional on achieving certain 
predetermined commercialization goals.

In March 1995, Genentech entered into a collaboration with IDEC 
Pharmaceuticals Corporation (IDEC) to develop IDEC's anti-CD20 monoclonal
antibody, IDEC-C2B8, for the treatment of non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphomas, for
which Phase III clinical trials have begun.  Under the terms of the agreement, 
Genentech and IDEC will copromote IDEC-C2B8 in the United Sates and Canada,
with IDEC receiving a share of the profits.  Genentech will retain
commercialization rights throughout the rest of the world except certain
countries in Asia, where Genentech has certain option rights.  IDEC will
receive royalties on sales outside the U.S. and Canada.  In connection with
the collaboration, Genentech will provide $9 million in preferred equity
investments and licensing fees, up to $17.5 million in additional equity
funding prior to U.S. approval, and up to $30.5 million in milestone and
option payments.

Distribution

Genentech has a marketing department and a United States-based and Canada-
based pharmaceutical sales and distribution organization for its human 
pharmaceuticals.  Genentech's sales efforts are focused on specialist 
physicians based at major medical centers in the United States and Canada.
Products are sold to distributors or directly to hospital pharmacies or 
medical centers.  The distribution network for Pulmozyme in Western Europe is
discussed in the "Products" section above. Genentech utilizes common 
pharmaceutical company marketing techniques, including advertisements, direct
mail, and other methods.

Genentech's products are available at no charge to qualified patients under 
Genentech's Uninsured Patient Programs in the United States.  Genentech has 
established the Genentech Endowment for Cystic Fibrosis so qualified cystic 
fibrosis patients in the United States who need Pulmozyme can gain assistance
in obtaining it.

During 1994, Genentech provided certain marketing programs relating to 
Activase.  The Activase Stocking Assistance Program provided extended payment
terms, up to 195 days, to wholesalers on certain orders, subject to certain 
restrictions on the timing and quantities of the orders.  Additionally, a 
comprehensive wastage replacement program exists for Activase which, subject 
to specific conditions, provides customers the right to return Activase to 
Genentech for replacement related to both patient related product wastage and
product expiry.  Genentech maintains the right to renew, modify or discontinue
the above programs.

As discussed in Note 1 in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in
the Company's 1994 Annual Report to Stockholders, the Company has certain 
customers who provided over 10% of total revenues. Also discussed in Note 1 
are revenues from foreign customers in 1994, 1993 and 1992.

Raw Materials

Raw materials and supplies required for the production of Genentech's 
principal products are generally available in quantities adequate to meet the
Company's needs.

Proprietary Technology - Patents and Trade Secrets

Genentech has a policy of seeking patents on inventions arising from its 

<PAGE>   7

ongoing research and development activities.  Patents issued or applied for 
cover inventions ranging from basic recombinant DNA techniques to processes 
relating to specific products and to the products themselves.  The Company has
either been granted patents or has patent applications pending which relate to
a number of current and potential products, including products licensed to 
others.  Genentech considers that in the aggregate its patent applications, 
patents and licenses under patents owned by third parties are of material 
importance to its operations.  Important legal issues remain to be resolved as
to the extent and scope of available patent protection for biotechnology 
products and processes in the United States and other important markets 
outside of the United States.  Genentech expects that litigation will likely 
be necessary to determine the validity and scope of certain of its proprietary
rights.  Genentech is currently involved in a number of patent lawsuits, as 
either a plaintiff or defendant, and administrative proceedings relating to 
the scope of protection of its patents and those of others.  These lawsuits 
and proceedings may result in a significant commitment of Company resources in
the future.  There can be no assurance that the patents Genentech obtains or 
the unpatented proprietary technology it holds will afford Genentech 
significant commercial protection.

Genentech has obtained licenses from various parties which it deems to be 
necessary or desirable for the manufacture, use or sale of its products. These
licenses (both exclusive and non-exclusive) generally require Genentech to pay
royalties to the parties on product sales.

The Company's trademarks, ACTIVASE, PROTROPIN, NUTROPIN, PULMOZYME and 
ACTIMMUNE in the aggregate are considered to be of material importance and are
registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and in other 
countries throughout the world.

Royalty income recognized by the Company during 1994, 1993 and 1992 for patent
licenses, know-how and other related rights amounted to $126.0 million, $112.9
million and $91.7 million, respectively.  In 1994, 1993 and 1992 the Company 
incurred royalty expenses amounting to $50.5 million, $41.9 million and $35.9
million, respectively, under licenses from others.



Competition

Genentech faces competition, and believes significant long-term competition
can be expected, from large pharmaceutical and chemical companies as well as
biotechnology companies.  This competition can be expected to become more 
intense as commercial applications for biotechnology products increase.  Some
competitors, primarily large pharmaceutical companies, have greater clinical,
regulatory and marketing resources and experience than Genentech.  Many of 
these companies have commercial arrangements with other companies in the 
biotechnology industry to supplement their own basic research capabilities.

The introduction of new products or the development of new processes by 
competitors or new information about existing products may result in price 
reductions or product replacements, even for products protected by patents.
However, the Company believes its competitive position is enhanced by its 
commitment to research leading to the discovery and development of new 
products and manufacturing methods.  Additionally, other factors which should
help the Company meet competition include ancillary services provided to 
support its products, customer service and dissemination of technical 
information to prescribers of its products and the health care community.

Over the longer term, the Company's (and its partners') ability to successfully
market current products, expand their usage and bring new products to the 
marketplace will depend on many factors, including the effectiveness and safety
of the products, FDA and foreign regulatory agencies' approvals for new 
indications, the degree of patent protection afforded to particular products, 
Orphan Drug Act legislation, the possible future enactments of biotechnology 
product protection in the United States as well as in Europe and Japan and the

<PAGE>   8

possible enactment in the United States of health care reform legislation which
may include expanded coverage for prescription drugs and cost containment 
measures.  The Company believes it has strong patent protection or the 
potential for strong patent protection for a number of its products that 
generate royalty revenue or that it is developing; however, the courts will 
determine the ultimate strength of the patent protection of the Company's 
products and those on which the Company earns royalties.  Loss of Orphan Drug
Act protection for the Company's products that are currently marketed or in 
development, resulting from expiration of Orphan Drug status or amendment of 
the Orphan Drug Act, could lead to increased competition for those products and
potentially lower future product revenues.

Activase:  In 1990, the Company began co-sponsorship of a major comparative 
mortality trial in AMI known as GUSTO (Global Utilization of Streptokinase and
Activase for occluded coronary arteries).  The GUSTO trial results, as 
reported in the "New England Journal of Medicine" in 1993, demonstrated that
the use of an accelerated administration of Activase with intravenous heparin
is a key to saving more lives following a heart attack than the use of 
streptokinase.  The GUSTO trial showed that among patients receiving treatment
using an accelerated dose of Activase, combined with the blood thinning agent
heparin, administered intravenously, heart attack patient mortality was 
reduced by as much as 14% over other thrombolytic regimens studied in the 
trial.  The positive results from the GUSTO trial have helped increase 
Activase's market share in 1994 to more than 70% in the United States for the
treatment of AMI. In June 1994, an FDA advisory committee unanimously agreed
that the accelerated infusion of Activase used in the GUSTO trial has a 
clinically significant mortality benefit in the treatment of heart attacks and
recommended that the new dosing regimen be incorporated into the product's 
labeling. Factors which may influence future Activase sales include: the 
increase in market demand for thrombolytic therapies; the continued impact of
the GUSTO trial results; and physicians' personal experiences in the 
administration of thrombolytic therapy.

Genentech is aware of other companies or combinations of companies actively 
pursuing the development for the United States market of nonrecombinant or 
recombinant t-PA or derivatives of that substance, and additional companies or
combinations of companies pursuing the development of other types of 
potentially competitive thrombolytic agents.  Genentech is conducting Phase I
clinical trials on a second generation of t-PA which, subject to the ultimate
outcome of the studies, could have a favorable impact on the Company's
competitive position.  Although Genentech believes it will have a strong
patent position with respect to t-PA, its patents may not cover products with
similar functions which are not based on t-PA, and competitors have been and
may continue to be successful in developing effective thrombolytic agents 
which are not covered by Genentech's patents.

Protropin and Nutropin:  Protropin was approved in late 1985 and was 
designated an Orphan Drug which provided seven years of market exclusivity for
its use in the treatment of growth hormone inadequacy in children.  In 1987, a
product similar to Nutropin, produced by Lilly (and marketed under the 
trademark Humatrope, registered trademark, human growth hormone), was approved
for treatment of growth hormone inadequacy in children and was designated an 
Orphan Drug.  Protropin was protected from some possible additional 
competition until March 1994, by virtue of the designation of Lilly's 
Humatrope as an Orphan Drug.  While several potential competitors are 
preparing to independently market a version of human growth hormone similar to
that currently sold by Lilly since Lilly's Orphan Drug exclusivity expired, 
the Company is not aware of any third party efforts to market a version of 
human growth hormone similar to Protropin.

Based on information currently available, Protropin and Nutropin have 
approximately a 66% share of the United States market for treatment of 
children with growth hormone inadequacy. Factors that may influence future 
Protropin and Nutropin sales include: the number and market entry dates of new
competitive products and their effect on the Company's market share and 
pricing; the availability of third party reimbursement for the costs of such

<PAGE>   9

therapies; and the outcome of litigation involving the Company's patents for 
growth hormone and related processes, including actions described below.

Pulmozyme:  Sales of Pulmozyme for the management of cystic fibrosis in the 
United States, Canada and some countries in Europe began in early 1994.  As 
approvals for marketing the product in other European countries are received,
the Company expects sales to grow.  Other factors which may influence future 
sales of Pulmozyme for the management of cystic fibrosis include: the number 
and kinds of patients benefiting from such therapy; physicians' personal 
experiences in the use and administration of the therapy; the availability of
third party reimbursement for the cost of such therapy; the development of 
alternative therapies for the treatment and cure of cystic fibrosis; the 
development of additional indications for using Pulmozyme; and the cost of 
Pulmozyme therapy.

Actimmune:  Actimmune received designation as an Orphan Drug by the FDA in 
1990 for the treatment of CGD.

Government Regulation

The pharmaceutical industry is subject to stringent regulation with respect to
product safety and efficacy by various federal, state and local authorities.
Of particular significance are the FDA's requirements covering research and 
development, testing, manufacturing, quality control, labeling and marketing 
of drugs for human use.  Regulations similar to the requirements of the FDA 
with respect to the approval of new drugs are encountered in most foreign 
countries where the Company's principal products are sold.  A pharmaceutical 
product cannot be marketed in the United States until it has been approved by
the FDA, and then can only be marketed for the indications and claims approved
by the FDA.  As a result of these requirements, the length of time, the level
of expenditures and the laboratory and clinical information required for 
approval of an NDA (New Drug Application), a PLA (Product License Application)
or an ELA (Establishment License Application) are substantial and can require
a number of years, although recently revised regulations are designed to 
reduce somewhat the time for approval of new products.

Although it is difficult to predict the ultimate effect, if any, these matters
or any other pending or future legislation, regulations or government actions
may have on its business, the Company believes that the development of new and
improved products  which address critical unmet medical needs through its 
research should enable it to compete effectively within this environment.



Research and Development

A major portion of the Company's operating expenses to date have been related 
to the research and development of products either on its own behalf or under 
contracts.  During 1994, 1993 and 1992 the Company's research and development 
expenses were $314.3 million, $299.4 million and $278.6 million, respectively.
The Company has sponsored approximately 98%, 99% and 97% of its research and 
development for the years 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.  Prior to 1987, 
licensees of the Company's products had provided significant funding of 
research and development expenses.  However, with the increase in product 
sales, and as a result of the Merger, the Company has been able to fund most 
of its own research and development.

The Company's research efforts have been the primary source of the Company's 
products.  The Company intends to maintain its strong commitment to research 
as an essential component of its product development effort.  In the future, 
licensed technology developed by outside parties could become an additional 
source of potential products.

Human Resources

As of December 31, 1994 Genentech had 2,738 employees in the United States, 

<PAGE>   10

Europe, Canada and Japan.

Environment

Genentech seeks to comply with all applicable statutory and administrative
requirements concerning environmental quality.  The Company has made, and will
continue to make, the necessary expenditures for environmental compliance and
protection.  Expenditures for compliance with environmental laws have not had
and are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's capital 
expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

ITEM 2.   PROPERTIES

Genentech's major facilities are located in a research and industrial park in
South San Francisco, California in both leased and owned properties.  The 
Company currently utilizes approximately 1.6 million square feet of its 
facilities for research and development, manufacturing, marketing and 
administrative activities.  Approximately two-thirds of the square footage is
in owned property, a portion of which is subject to a $1.2 million mortgage,
and the remainder is leased.  The Company has made and continues to make 
improvements to these properties to accommodate its growth.  In addition, the
Company owns approximately 16 acres adjacent to its current facilities that
may be used for future expansion.  The Company expects to develop a new 
manufacturing facility of approximately 0.4 million square feet in Vacaville,
California over the next three years under a leasing arrangement.  The Company
also has leases for certain additional facilities in several locations in the
United States, Europe, Canada and Japan.

Genentech believes its facilities are in good operating condition and that the
real property owned or leased, combined with the new Vacaville site, are 
adequate for all present and foreseeable future uses.  Genentech believes any
additional facilities could be obtained or constructed with the Company's 
capital resources.


ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its directors are defendants in two suits filed in California
in 1990 challenging their actions in connection with the Merger.

In December 1994, the Company and Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly) reached a 
settlement regarding all patent infringement and breach of contract actions 
then pending between the two parties regarding recombinant human growth 
hormone (hGH) and recombinant human insulin. All of these actions had been 
previously consolidated in the Federal District Court for the Southern 
District of Indiana. Under the terms of the settlement Lilly agreed to pay the
Company up to $145 million ($25 million initially and 16 quarterly payments of
$7.5 million), subject to certain restrictions, and the Company granted Lilly
licenses, options to licenses, or immunities from suit for certain of the 
Company's patents. Future payments are required from Lilly on sales of these
products. The Company will continue to pursue patent invalidity and non-
infringement claims against the Regents of the University of California (UC),
which has sued Genentech for infringing a patent owned by UC relating to hGH.
In a related matter, in December 1994, the Company also settled its patent 
infringement action against Centocor, Inc. whereby the Company granted 
Centocor a royalty bearing license to its Cabilly patent for Centocor's 
monoclonal anti-IIb/IIIa antibody. The suit was orginally filed in the Federal
District Court for Northern California.

On September 21, 1993, the United States International Trade Commission (the
"ITC") voted in favor of instituting an investigation based on a recombinant
human growth hormone patent infringement complaint filed by Genentech against
Bio-Technology General Corporation and its affiliate ("BTG") and Novo Nordisk
A/S and certain of its affiliates ("Novo") (BTG and Novo are collectively 
referred to as the "Competitors"). The complaint asked the ITC to impose a ban
on importation of hGH products for treatment of growth hormone inadequacy by 

<PAGE>   11

the Competitors in the United States. On November 29, 1994, the administrative
law judge of the ITC found, on an incomplete record, that BTG infringed two 
Genentech process patents and Novo infringed one process patent covering hGH;
however, the judge recommended that the case be dismissed because Genentech 
delayed in providing documents to the Competitors. Genentech did not initially
produce the documents because it believed that they were protected by the 
attorney-client privilege. Genentech filed a petition for a review by the full
Commission of the judge's recommendation dismissing the complaint, but on 
January 17, 1995 the Commission declined such review and agreed that the case
be dismissed.  On March 16, 1995 the Company filed an appeal of the 
Commission's decision in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit.

On December 1, 1994 the Company filed suit against the Competitors in the U.S.
District Court in Delaware seeking damages from the Competitors, and asking 
for an injunction blocking the Competitors from marketing hGH in the United 
States. On November 30, 1994, Novo brought suit against the Company in the 
U.S. District Court for the Southern District New York, alleging that the 
patents in the ITC action are invalid and not infringed by Novo. On January 6,
1995, BTG brought suit against the Company in the U.S. District Court from the
Southern District of New York seeking to prevent the Company from further 
patent infringement action against BTG and alleging unfair competition, 
antitrust and malicious prosecution claims.

On December 22, 1993, Tanox Biosystems, Inc. (Tanox) sued the Company, Roche
Holdings, Inc., Roche Holdings Ltd., and Hoffmann-LaRoche Inc. in the State
District Court of Harris County, Texas alleging, among other things, trade 
secret misappropriation, breach of contract, breach of the duty of good faith
and fair dealing, and breach of confidential relationship relating to a 1989
confidentiality agreement and a materials transfer agreement between the 
Company and Tanox.  The suit seeks injuctive relief, unspecified punitive 
damages, a royalty free sublicense to certain third party patents and legal
fees.  On January 21, 1994, the Company filed suit against Tanox in the 
Federal District Court for the Southern District of Texas, for infringing a
Genentech patent that covers antibody technology related to chimeric and
humanized immunoglobulin compositions, expression vectors and methods.
Genentech's suit encompasses all of Tanox's infringing activities, including 
development efforts for antibodies to IgE, a protein central to allergic 
reactions, and seeks injunctive relief, an accounting for damages, including 
interest and costs, trebling of the damages due to the willful nature of
Tanox's infringement and legal fees.  Genentech's suit also seeks a declaratory
judgement that it has not breached any agreement with Tanox.  In April, 1994, 
Tanox's suit and Genentech's suit were consolidated in the Federal District 
Court for the Southern District of Texas.  On February 1, 1995, Tanox filed 
its First Amended Complaint that added additional defendants, additional 
causes of action and specified an alleged monetary damage amount.  On February 
1, 1995, Genentech filed an Amended Complaint and added claims against Ciba-
Geigy, Ltd. (Tanox's exclusive licensee of its technology) for patent 
infringement of the Genentech patent described above.

The Company is also a defendant or plaintiff in other patent infringement and
product liability cases. In addition, the FDA is investigating the Company's
promotional practices in connection with Activase, Protropin and Pulmozyme.
Based upon the nature of the claims made and the investigations completed to
date by the Company and its counsel, the Company believes the outcome of all
of the actions described above will not have a material effect on the
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

* As required by Item 14(a)(3) of Form 10-K, the Company identifies this 
Exhibit as a management contract or compensatory plan or arrangement of the 
Company. For the purposes of complying with the amendments to the rules 
governing Form S-8 (effective July 13, 1990) under the Securities Act of 1933,
the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows, which undertaking 
shall be incorporated by reference into registrant's Registration Statements 
on Form S-8 Nos. 2-95744, 33-9292, 33-16671, 33-39631 and 33-60816:

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the 
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 
Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for 
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the 
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or 
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in 
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless 
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling 
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act 
and shall be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


                                   SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its 
behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.

NOTE 1.  STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING PRESENTATION

In the opinion of Genentech, Inc. (the Company), 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 Form 10-Q and Article 10 of 
Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and 
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete 
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments 
(consisting only of adjustments of a normal recurring nature) considered 
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for 
the three-month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily 
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 
31, 1995.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial 
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to 
Stockholders for the year ended December 31, 1994.

NOTE 4.  QUASI-REORGANIZATION

On February 18, 1988 the Company's Board of Directors approved the elimination 
of the Company's accumulated deficit through an accounting reorganization of 
its stockholders' equity accounts (a quasi-reorganization) effective October 
1, 1987 that did not involve any revaluation of assets or liabilities.  The 
quasi-reorganization did not involve any revaluation of assets or liabilities 
because for similar classes of assets their fair values were no less than 
their book values and for similar classes of liabilities their book values 
were no less than their fair values.  The accumulated deficit of $329.5 
million was eliminated by a transfer from additional paid-in capital in an 
amount equal to the accumulated deficit.  Simultaneously with the quasi-
reorganization, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board

                                  (unaudited)

Statement (FAS) 96.  FAS 96 provided for recognition of the tax benefits of 
operating loss and tax credit carryforward items that arose prior to a quasi-
reorganization involving only the elimination of a deficit in retained 
earnings being reported in the income statement and then being reclassified 
from retained earnings to additional paid-in capital.  Subsequently, in 
September 1989, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) 
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 86 which states that a quasi-
reorganization cannot involve only an elimination of a deficit in retained 
earnings and, therefore, the tax benefits of prior operating loss and tax 
credit carry-forwards must be reported as a direct addition to additional 
paid-in capital rather than being recorded in the income statement.

In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS 109, 
which supersedes FAS 96.  FAS 109 requires companies that have previously both
adopted FAS 96 and effected a quasi-reorganization that involves only a 
deficit elimination, as did the Company, to continue to report the tax 
benefits of prior operating losses and tax credit carryforwards in a manner 
consistent with FAS 96.  FAS 109 also provides that companies effecting a 
quasi-reorganization after February 1992 that involves only a deficit 
elimination shall report the tax benefits of prior operating losses and tax 
credit carryforwards in a manner consistent with SAB 86.

The Company will continue to report in income the recognition of operating 
loss and tax credit carryforward items arising prior to the quasi-
reorganization due to the Company's adoption of its quasi-reorganization in 
the context of its interpretation of FAS 96 and the quasi-reorganization 
literature existing at the date the quasi-reorganization was effected.  The 
SEC staff has indicated that it would not object to the Company's accounting 
for such tax benefits.  If the provisions of SAB 86 had been applied, net 
income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 would have been reduced by 
approximately $10.0 million or $.08 per share (1994 - net income reduced by 
$13.6 million or $.11 per share).

NOTE 5.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is a party to various legal proceedings including patent 
infringement cases involving human growth hormone, Activase and antibodies to
IgE (a protein central to allergic reactions), and product liability cases 
involving Activase.  The Company and its directors are defendants in two suits
filed in California challenging their actions in connection with the Company's
1990 merger with a wholly owned subsidiary of Roche Holdings, Inc. (Roche).
In addition, the Company, its directors, a former director and Roche are 
defendants in a number of suits filed in Delaware by certain individual 
shareholders purporting to represent shareholders as a class alleging, in 
general, breach of their fiduciary duties to the Company in connection with 
the proposed extension of Roche's option to cause the Company to redeem its 
Redeemable Common Stock and transactions related thereto.  See also Note 6 - 
Subsequent Event - Roche Holdings, Inc.

Based upon the nature of the claims made and the investigation completed to 
date by the Company and its counsel, the Company believes the outcome of the 
above actions will not have a material adverse effect on the financial 
position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 6.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT - ROCHE HOLDINGS, INC.

On May 1, 1995 the Company announced a proposed agreement with Roche, subject 
to the approval of a majority of shares not held by Roche or its affiliates, 
to extend for four years Roche's option to cause Genentech to redeem the 
outstanding redeemable common stock of the Company at a predetermined price.  
The option price is set at $61.25 per share on July 1, 1995, increasing by 
$1.25 per share each quarter through June 30, 1997, and thereafter escalating 
at $1.50 per share each quarter, to $82.00 per share at the end of the option 
period on June 30, 1999.  If Roche does not cause the redemption as of June 
30, 1999, or the Company is insolvent, Genentech's stockholders will have the 
option to cause the Company to redeem some or all of their shares (and Roche 
will concurrently purchase a like number of shares of common stock at $60.00 
per share) at $60.00 per share within thirty business days following July 1, 
1999 and sixty business days in an insolvency situation.  Under the agreement 
Roche may increase its ownership of the Company up to 79.9% by making 
purchases on the open market.  Roche currently holds approximately 65% of the 
outstanding common equity of the Company.  As part of the agreement, Roche 
will be granted an option at terms discussed below for ten years for licenses 
to use and sell certain of Genentech's products in non-U.S. markets.  As a 
general matter, such option for a Genentech product must be exercised at, or 
prior to, the conclusion of Phase II clinical trials.  If Roche exercises such 
an option, the Company and Roche will split equally all development expenses, 
including preclinical, clinical, process development and related expenses, both 
prospectively, and retroactively, incurred by the Company with respect to the 
development of the product in the United States.  Roche will pay all non-U.S. 
development expenses.  In general, Roche will pay a royalty of 12.5% until a 
product reaches $100 million in aggregate sales outside of the U.S., when the 
royalty rate increases to 15%.  As part of the agreement, Roche will have 
exclusive rights to, and pay the Company 20% royalties on, Canadian sales of 
the Company's existing products, as well as European sales of Pulmozyme.  The 
Company will supply its products to Roche for sales outside of the U.S. at 
cost plus 20 percent.  Roche retains its right to cause the Company to redeem 
all of its redemmable common stock on or prior to June 30, 1995 at $60.00 per 
share.

NOTE 7.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT - RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ARRANGEMENTS

In December 1994, the Company entered into a collaboration with Scios Nova 
Inc. (Scios Nova) for the development of Scios Nova's Auriculin for the 
treatment of acute renal failure, as previously disclosed. In May 1995, the 
preliminary results of the drug's Phase III clinical trials were announced, 
indicating that, except for a subpopulation of acute renal failure patients, 
the drug did not either decrease the need for dialysis or decrease mortality 
in the population studied.  Subsequent to the announcement, the market price 
of Scios Nova's common stock lost approximately 46% of its value.  Upon 
further analysis of the clinical data, Scios Nova and the Company will 
determine the next appropriate steps for the development of Auriculin.  
Subject to the outcome of this analysis,  and the stock market's reaction to 
it, the decline in the market value of Scios Nova's common stock may be deemed 
to be other than temporary.  If so, and based upon the current value of the 
shares of Scios Nova, the Company could record a loss on its investment in 
Scios Nova's stock of approximately $6 million in future periods.

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


GENERAL

As discussed in Note 6 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial 
Statements, under the proposed agreement with Roche, Roche will have exclusive 
rights to Canadian sales of the Company's existing products, and European 
sales of Pulmozyme.  In return the Company will receive royalties at the rate 
of 20% of sales.  Roche will receive at commercial terms an option to 
collaborate on the development and sales of future drugs.  Subject to 
stockholder approval of the agreement and Roche's exercise of rights to 
develop or sell the Company's products, product sales, royalties and contract 
revenue, as well as R & D and other expenses, could be significantly affected 
in future periods.

Sales of Activase, registered trademark, (Alteplase, recombinant) tissue-
plasminogen activator increased 11% in the quarter ended March 31, 1995 
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1994.  Total Activase sales in 1995 
included $3.8 million of sales to Japanese licensees.  Sales in the U.S. and 
Canada were higher due to an increase in the number of patients receiving 
thrombolytic therapy and the continued positive impact of the results of the 
worldwide Global Utilization of Activase and Streptokinase in Occluded 
Coronary Arteries (GUSTO) clinical trial.  This international trial showed 
that a new accelerated infusion regimen for Activase was superior compared to 
another clot-dissolving agent for the management of acute myocardial 
infarction (heart attack).  In April 1995, the Food and Drug Administration 
(FDA) approved for marketing the accelerated infusion of Activase, allowing 
revised labeling for the product incorporating data from the GUSTO study.

Sales of the Company's two growth hormone products - Protropin, registered 
trademark, (somatrem for injection) and Nutropin, registered trademark, 
(somatropin [rDNA origin] for injection)- increased to $54.4 million in the 
first quarter of 1995 from $53.6 million in the first quarter of 1994.  In May 
1995, a competitor received Food and Drug Administration approval to market 
its growth hormone product in the United States.  Decreases in sales may occur 
as competitors enter the market.

Sales of Pulmozyme, registered trademark, (dornase alfa), increased 27% in the 
first three months of 1995 over the comparable period in the prior year.  The 
product was launched in the United States and Canada during the first quarter 
of 1994, and launched in Europe at the end of that quarter.  The increase 
between quarters reflects market launches in additional European countries and 
continued adoption of this new therapy by physicians to treat cystic fibrosis 
patients. The Company currently markets the drug in the United States and, 
through its Canadian subsidiary, in Canada.  Under the existing collaboration 
with F. Hoffmann-LaRoche, Ltd. (HLR), Genentech Europe Limited and its 
affiliates promote Pulmozyme in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands 
and Germany, while HLR is responsible for promoting the product in the 
remaining Western European countries in the collaboration.

Interest income                       13.6        9.9        37
</TABLE>


Royalty income increased primarily as a result of increases in licensees' net 
sales subject to royalties and the recognition of $7.5 million of royalties in
the first quarter of 1995 relating to the December 1994 settlement with Eli 
Lilly and Company.  The impact on total royalties of changes in foreign 
currency translation rates, net of gains and losses recognized on foreign 
exchange hedging instruments and the amortization of expense related to 
foreign currency options outstanding during the period, was not material.

Contract revenues increased between quarters due to variations in the timing 
of contract benchmark achievements, varying payment amounts and the initiation
of new arrangements.  Other revenues in 1995 included $4.0 million of gains 
recorded from the sales of biotechnology equity securities owned by the 
Company.

The increase in interest income occurred due to higher available interest 
rates and a larger investment portfolio in 1995.  The total investment 
portfolio, consisting of cash, cash equivalents, short-term marketable 
securities and long-term marketable securities increased from $780.7 million 
as of March 31, 1994 to $942.3 million as of March 31, 1995.

</TABLE>

Cost of sales increased in the first quarter of 1995 due to a change in 
product mix, a 10% increase in product sales and inventory write offs in 1995.


R&D expenses for the first three months of 1995 increased over the comparable 
period in 1994 due to increased production of products for clinical trials and 
higher in-licensing expenses.  In-licensing expenses in the first quarter of 
1995 included $4.0 million paid to IDEC Pharmaceutical Corporation (IDEC) 
under the previously disclosed collaboration to develop IDEC's anti-CD20 
monoclonal antibody, IDEC-C2B8.

Marketing, general and administrative expenses increased in the first quarter 
of 1995 due to higher marketing and selling expenses in Europe, as Pulmozyme 
is now sold in more European countries than in the first quarter of 1994, and 
due to an overall increase in other corporate expenses.

Interest expense relates primarily to interest on the Company's 5% convertible 
subordinated debentures, net of capitalized interest, and interest on a new 
$25.0 million long-term borrowing arrangement of the Company's Canadian 
subsidary.

The increase in income tax expense was due to higher income before taxes and 
an increase in the effective income tax rate, from 4% in the first quarter of 
1994 to 15% in the first quarter of 1995.  The increase in the effective tax 
rate was primarily related to a higher alternative minimum tax (AMT) in 1995, 
due to the complete utilization of available AMT loss carryforwards in 1994.

Cash generated from operations, maturities of short-term investments, stock 
issuances and proceeds from borrowings, was used to make investments in long-
term marketable securities, other assets and capital expenditures.  Cash and 
cash equivalents at March 31, 1995 increased $43.4 million compared to 
December 31, 1994.  Working capital increased $33.8 million.  The Company 
believes that its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term 
investments, together with funds provided by operations and leasing 
arrangements, will be sufficient to meet its operating cash requirements.

                    INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Genentech, Inc.


We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of 
Genentech, Inc. as of March 31, 1995, and the related condensed consolidated 
statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 
31, 1995 and 1994.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the 
Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the 
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim 
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures 
to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial 
and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit 
conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will 
be performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion 
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not 
express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that 
should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements 
referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Genentech, Inc. as of December 
31, 1994, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' 
equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in 
our report dated January 17, 1995, we expressed an unqualified opinion on 
those consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set 
forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 
31, 1994, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the 
consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
