A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with rules established by the Securities
and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. Not all
financial disclosures required to present the financial
position and results of operations in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles are included
herein. The reader is referred to the Company's
Financial Statements included in the registrant's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
September 30, 1996. In the opinion of management, all
accruals and adjustments (each of which is of a
normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position as of December
31, 1996 and the results of operations for the three-
month period then ended have
been made. Significant accounting policies have
been consistently applied in the interim financial
statements and the annual financial statements.
Investments
Effective September 30, 1994, the Company adopted,
on a prospective basis, Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, "Accounting
for Certain Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115) and
revised its policy for investments. Investments that
may be sold as part of the liquidity management of the
Company or for other factors are classified as available-
for-sale and are carried at fair market value.
Unrealized gains and losses on such securities are
reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses on
sales of securities are reported in earnings and
computed using the specific identified cost basis.
Loss per Share
Net loss per common share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding
during the period.
Common stock equivalents, including options to
purchase common stock, are excluded from the
calculation as they are antidilutive.
Long-lived Assets
Statement of Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived
Assets to be Disposed of" is effective for financial
statements for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. It is
the Company's opinion that the adoption of the
statement would have no material effect on its Financial
Statements.

B. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In October, 1996, the Company loaned $300,000 to an
officer and shareholder. The loan carried an interest
rate of 5% and was due on December 31, 1996. At
that time, the loan was extended and is now due March
31, 1997.
C. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
During 1996, the Company authorized 5,000 shares of
Series B Preferred Stock (Series B Stock) with a par
value of $.01 per share. Holders of Series B Stock
are entitled to dividends, payable quarterly if
declared, at the rate of $17.50 per quarter.
Dividends which are not declared will not accrue nor
be cumulative. Each share of Series B Stock is
convertible into shares of common stock equal in number
to the amount determined by dividing $1,000 by 87% of
the closing price of the Company's common stock on or
after 10 days from the effective registration date of
the common shares, and 85% of the closing price on or
after 40 days from the effective date, with the
conversion price not less
than $3.60 nor more than $14.75. Dividends were
declared and paid on Series B Stock during the quarter
ended December 31,1997. During the quarter, 1,900
shares of Series B Stock were converted into 527,774
shares of common stock at a price of $3.60 per
share of common stock. Two thousand, eight
hundred fifty shares of Series B Stock were
repurchased by the Company during the quarter ended
December 31, 1996.
Also during the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the
Company issued 2,850 shares of Series C Preferred Stock
(Series C Stock) with a par value of $.01 per share.
Series C Stock is convertible into shares of the
Company's common stock on the basis of one share of
Series C Stock for shares of common stock equal in
number to the amount determined by dividing $1,000 by
85% of the average closing price of the Company's common
stock over the fiveday trading period ending on the day
prior to the conversion of the Series C Stock.
The
conversion price may not be more than $4.00. Beginning
90 days after December 17, 1996, one-half of the Series
C Stock is convertible into share of the Company's
common stock. All preferred shares are convertible
into shares of the Company's common stock beginning
180 days after December 17, 1996 provided that, if the
Company's common
stock trades for more than $8.00 at any time, then all
shares of the Series C Stock will thereafter be
immediately convertible into shares of the Company's
common stock. In addition, warrants were included with
the Series C Stock. The Series A warrants entitle the
holder to purchase one share of the Company's common
stock at a price of $4.50 per share at any time prior to
March 15, 1998. Each Series B warrant entitles the
holder to
purchase one share of the Company's common stock at a
price of $4.50 per share at any time prior to March 15,
1999. None of the Series C Stock was converted into
common
stock nor were any warrants exercised before December
31, 1996.

D. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement No. 123, Accounting for
Stock Based Compensation (SFAS 123), which provides an
alternative to APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting
for stock-based compensation issued to employees. As
permitted
by SFAS 123, the Company plans to continue to account
for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB
Opinion No. 25. The Company will present in its
annual financial statements the additional disclosure
required by SFAS 123.
CEL-SCI CORPORATION
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has had only
limited revenues from operations
since its inception in March 1983.
The Company has relied upon proceeds
realized from the public and private
sale of its Common Stock and short-
term borrowings to meet its funding
requirements. Funds raised by the
Company have been expended primarily
in connection with the acquisition of
an exclusive worldwide license to
certain patented and unpatented
proprietary technology and know-how
relating to the human immunological
defense system, the funding of
VTI's research and development
program, patent applications, the
repayment of debt, the continuation of
Company sponsored research and
development and administrative costs,
and the construction of laboratory
facilities. Inasmuch
as the
Company does not anticipate realizing
significant revenues until such time
as it enters into licensing
arrangements regarding the technology
and know-how licensed to it or until
such time it receives permission
to sell its product (which could
take a number of years), the Company
is mostly dependent upon short-term
borrowings and the proceeds from the
sale of its securities to meet all
of its liquidity and capital resource
requirements.
In February, 1992, the Company
sold 1,035,000 Units at $15.50 per
Unit in a public offering. Each unit
consisted of five shares of Common
Stock and five Common Stock
Purchase Warrants. Ten Warrants
entitle the holder to purchase one
additional share of Common Stock at a
price of $46.50 per share prior to
February 7, 1997.
In June and September, 1995,
the Company completed private
offerings whereby it sold a total of
1,150,000 units at $2.00 per unit.
Each unit consisted of one share of
Common Stock and one Warrant. Each
Warrant entitles the holder to
purchase one additional share of
Common Stock at a price of $3.25 per
share at any time prior to June 30,
1997. The net proceeds to the Company
from these offerings, after the
payment of Sales Agent's
commissions and other offering
expenses, were approximately
$2,000,000. On November 30, 1995 the
Company and the investors in these
Private Offerings agreed to reduce the
exercise price of the Warrants to
$1.60 per share in return for the
commitment on the part of the
investors to exercise 312,500 Warrants
($500,000) prior to December 23,
1995 and an additional 312,500
Warrants ($500,000) prior to January
31, 1996. All of these warrants were
exercised.
During 1996, the Company
issued Preferred Stock. See
Footnote C, Stockholders' Equity.
Results of Operations
Interest income during the three
months ending December 31, 1996
reflects interest accrued on
investments. Research and
development expenses have increased
due to new research on the TB vaccine,
increased work to follow up on
positive findings with the AIDS
vaccine and the conduct of three
clinical studies with cancer and
AIDS patients. However, research
and development expenses decreased
from last year because the purchase
of the remaining 50% of Viral
Technologies, Inc. in October 1995,
was expensed as research and
development expense during the 1996
fiscal year.
