NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which in the opinion of
management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company at July 31, 1999, and the results of its operations for the three
month periods ended July 31, 1999 and 1998 and its cash flows for the
three month periods ended July 31, 1999 and 1998. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission although the Company believes that the
disclosures in the financial statements are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading.
The financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements of the Company, included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 1999 filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 1, 1999.
Going Concern - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets
and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As
shown in the financial statements, the Company is in the development
stage and, at July 31, 1999 has accumulated losses from operations
amounting to $10,622,357 and a working capital deficit of $420,760. The
Company is in the pre-clinical trial stage of its products. These
products must undergo further development and testing prior to submission
to the FDA for approval to market the products. The Company's
continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate
sufficient cash flow, to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to
obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain
successful operations. However, no assurance can be given at this time as
to whether the Company will achieve any of these conditions or that the
FDA approval will be granted, once applied for. These factors, among
others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern
for a reasonable period of time. Additional funding will be necessary
which will require future private placements and/or joint ventures to
enable the Company to continue the required testing through Phase I, II
and III human testing.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion
contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this section and
those discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS-
Three months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998:
The Research and Development expenses for the three month period ended July 31,
1999 were $43,698, compared to $ 35,107 for the same period in the prior year.
This increase was primarily due to an increase in contract wages of $9,400.
General and Administrative expenses for the three month period ended July 31,
1999 were $172,508, compared to $193,263 for the same period in the prior year.
During the current period professional fees were down $14,600 along with wages
and contract labor down $23,300 and travel expenses down $8,800. These decreases
were partially offset by an increases in rent expense of $13,000 related to the
addition of a California research laboratory in 1999 and a one-time moving
expense of $14,000 associated with the set-up of a laboratory in California.
The net loss for the three months ended July 31, 1999 was $220,357, compared to
$227,662 for the same period in the prior year. Although total expenses were
down $14,000 for the current period, this decrease was offset by interest income
of $6,000 earned on excess funds available for investment in the prior period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has financed its operations since September 1990, when the current
management became involved, through the issuance of debt and equity securities
and loans from stockholders. As of July 31, 1999 the Company had $121,173 in
total current assets and a working capital deficit of $420,760.
The Company is in the pre-clinical trial stage in the development of its
products. These products must undergo further development and testing prior to
submission to the FDA for approval to market its products. This additional
development and testing and if approved, the FDA required clinical testing will
require significant additional financing. Management is actively pursuing
strategic alliance and joint venture agreements to enable the Company to develop
its products.

<PAGE> 8
There can be no assurance that FDA approval will be granted, once applied for,
or that necessary funding will be obtained. The Company does not have any firm
commitments for additional capital as of July 31, 1999.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The "Year 2000 Issue" arises because most computer systems and programs were
designed to handle only a two-digit, not a four-digit year. When the year 2000
begins, these computers may interpret "00" as the year 1900 and could either
stop processing date-related computations or could process them incorrectly.
The Company is in the process of developing a program to address Year 2000
issues and such program is substantially complete as of July 31, 1999. The
Company does not believe the costs required to address Year 2000 issues will be
material, and that the program should be completely implemented by the end of
the third quarter of 1999.
Year 2000 issues faced by prospective supplies, vendors and financial service
organizations with which the Company interacts could adversely impact the
Company. The Company is in the process of developing a plan to determine the
impact that third parties that are not Year 2000 compliant may have on the
operations of the Company. However, there can be no guarantee that the systems
of these companies will achieve Year 2000 compliance in a timely manner.
Recent SEC guidance for Year 2000 disclosure also calls on companies to describe
their most likely worst case Year 2000 scenario. The Company believes that the
most likely worst case scenario is that the Company could experience clinical
trial and research and development delays because of infrastructure failures or
delays from suppliers.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company has no derivative financial instruments and no exposure to foreign
currency exchange rates or interest rate risk.
