Board of Directors and Shareholders
Biopharmaceutics, Inc.
Bellport, New York


     We  have  audited  the   accompanying   consolidated   balance   sheets  of
Biopharmaceutics,  Inc. and  Subsidiaries as of September 30, 1996 and 1995, and
the  related  consolidated   statements  of  operations,   shareholders'  equity
(deficiency  in assets) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended September 30, 1996. 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 audits 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
Biopharmaceutics,  Inc. and Subsidiaries at September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the
consolidated  results of their  operations  and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended September 30, 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles.  Also in our  opinion,  the related  financial
statement  schedule,  when  considered  in  relation  to the basic  consolidated
financial  statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects,
the information set forth therein.

             YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996, 1995 AND 1994



Note 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

           a)  The Company

     Biopharmaceutics,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  is  a  manufacturer  of  generic

These  products  are  sold  nationwide  to  major  chain  stores,  distributors,
wholesalers and clinics.

           b)  Principles of consolidation

     The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of the Company
and its  subsidiaries.  All significant  intercompany  accounts and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

           c)  Revenue recognition

     Sales are recognized as products are shipped.
           d)  Inventory valuation

                              Inventories  are  stated  at  the  lower  of  cost
(first-in, first-out) or market.

           e)  Depreciation and amortization

     The Company  amortizes its intangible  assets on the  straight-line  method
over their  estimated  useful life of twenty  years.  Licensing  costs are being
amortized on the straight-line method over the life of the license agreements.

method for financial reporting purposes. For tax reporting purposes, the Company
uses the straight-line or accelerated methods of depreciation.

     Leasehold  improvements  are amortized  over four to ten years.  Equipment,
furniture and fixtures generally have been assigned ten and seven year lives and
tools and dies, four year lives.

                  YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996, 1995 AND 1994



Note 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

           e)  Depreciation and amortization (continued)

     Expenditures  for  maintenance,   repairs,  renewals  and  betterments  are
reviewed by management and only those expenditures  representing improvements to
plant and equipment are capitalized. At the time plant and equipment are retired
or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation accounts and the
gain or loss on such disposition is reflected in operations.

     The  Company  adopted  Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("FAS")  No.  121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed of" for the year ended  September 30, 1996.  The adoption of FAS 121
had no material effect on the financial statements.

          f)     Deferred income taxes

     Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting  for  Income  Taxes"  ("SFAS  109"),  to  reflect  the tax effect of
differences  in the  recognition  of revenues  and  expenses  between  financial
reporting  and income tax  purposes  based on the  enacted tax laws in effect at
September 30, 1996.

          g)  Loss per share

     Loss per share is computed  based on the weighted  average number of common
shares  outstanding.  In computing loss per share,  common share equivalents are
omitted because they are antidilutive.

         h)  Research and development expenses

     The Company expenses  research and development  costs as incurred.  For the
years ended  September 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994,  research and development  costs
aggregated approximately $14,000, $62,000, and $633,000, respectively.

              YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996, 1995 AND 1994


Note 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

          i)  Fair value of financial instruments

     Effective  for fiscal years ending  after  December 15, 1995,  Statement of
Financial  Accounting Standards No. 107 requires entities with total assets less
than $150 million to disclose the fair value of financial instruments recognized
in the balance  sheet.  At  September  30,  1996,  the  carrying  amounts of the
Company's  financial  instruments  included  in its  current  assets and current
liabilities  approximate  fair  value  because  of the short  maturity  of those
instruments.   The  carrying  amounts  of  the  Company's  long-term  debt  also
approximates  their fair value as of September 30, 1996 based upon the borrowing
rates  currently  available  to the  Company  for loans with  similar  terms and
maturities.

          j)  Estimates

     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  the  Company's  management  to  make
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. The most significant estimates made are for recoverability
of property and equipment,  intangibles and accounts receivable.  Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

          k)  Concentration of credit risk

     Financial   instruments   that   potentially   subject   the   Company   to
concentrations  of credit risk  consist  principally  of sales,  trade  accounts
receivable and cash. The Company grants credit to customers  located  throughout
the United  States.  The Company  performs  ongoing  credit  evaluations  of its
customers'  financial  condition and generally  requires no collateral  from its
customers. For the year ended September 30, 1996, the Company had sales to three
unrelated customers of approximately $492,000 (13.2% of sales),  $461,000 (12.4%
of sales) and $446,000 (12.0% of sales).  In fiscal 1995, sales to two customers
aggregated  approximately  $416,000  (27.1% of  sales)  and  $351,000  (22.9% of
sales).

     The  Company  places its cash with  financial  institutions  insured by the
FDIC. At times, such cash balances may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

             YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996, 1995 AND 1994



Note 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

          k)  Concentration of credit risk (continued)

     As of September 30, 1996,  the Company had  receivables  from two unrelated
customers of  approximately  $82,000 (14.0% of accounts  receivable) and $65,000
(11.1% of accounts  receivable),  respectively.  As of September  30, 1995,  the
Company had  receivables  from five unrelated  customers  averaging  $46,000 per
customer (17.1% of accounts receivable).

          l)  Accounting for stock-based compensation

     In October 1995, SFAS No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation",
was issued.  SFAS No. 123  establishes  a fair value method for  accounting  for
stock-based  compensation  plans either through  recognition or disclosure.  The
Company  intends to adopt the employee  stock-based  compensation  provisions of
SFAS No. 123 by disclosing  the pro forma net income per share amounts  assuming
the fair value method was adopted October 1, 1995. The adoption of this standard
did not impact the  Company's  consolidated  results  of  operations,  financial
position or cash flows.

Note 2.  Basis of Preparation

     For the fiscal year ended  September  30, 1996,  the  Company's  operations
included the manufacture and distribution of its generic pharmaceutical products
along with the  marketing  and selling of its newly  acquired  feminine  hygiene
product lines; Vaginex, Koromex and Feminique (See Note 5).

     The Company  recorded net losses of $25,807,  $9,607,790 and $4,670,765 for
each of the years ended  September  30, 1996,  1995 and 1994,  respectively.  At
September 30, 1996, the Company had a working  capital  deficit of $940,485.  As
part of management's  plan to refocus the Company's efforts on its operations to
attain  profitable  levels,  the Company  acquired the Feminine  Hygiene Product
Brands of London  International  U.S.  Holdings,  Inc.  for a purchase  price of
$3,600,000 (See Note 5).

     In  addition,  on  September  25,  1996,  the Company  entered into a Joint
Venture  Agreement to finance the  commercialization  of certain  cancer related
drugs (see Note 16).

                  YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996, 1995 AND 1994



Note 2.  Basis of Preparation (continued)

     The Company anticipates that its expanding pharmaceutical customer base and
the acquisition of its new feminine hygiene product line will enable the Company
to reach profitability. The Company is of the opinion that with the funds raised
from the joint venture,  possible further  issuances of common stock pursuant to
Regulation  S  offerings,  and other  financing  it may  consider  necessary  to
strengthen  its working  capital  position,  it can  generate  adequate  capital
resources to achieve its objectives.

Note 5.  Acquisition of Feminine Hygiene Product Line

                    In  March,   1996,   the   Company,   through   one  of  its
subsidiaries,  acquired three branded  consumer  product lines (namely  Koromex,
Vaginex and Feminique) from London  International U.S.  Holdings,  Inc. ("London
Int'l")  for a  purchase  price  of  $3,600,000.  Pursuant  to  the  acquisition
agreement,  as amended,  $100,000 was paid upon the signing of the agreement and
$1,500,000 paid at the closing.  The balance of the purchase price of $2,000,000

before April 1, 1998 and iii) $840,000 on April 1, 1999,  with interest at 8.5%,

security interest in all accounts  receivable,  inventory and the trademarks and
trade names purchased.

                    The  assets   purchased  from  London  Int'l   consisted  of
trademarks,  trade names and its customer base. No  obligations  were assumed by
the Company. The intangible assets acquired are comprised of the following:

                                             ==========
                    Amortization  expense for the year ended  September 30, 1996
aggregated $94,200.

                    The  acquisition  of the  aforementioned  product lines were

Note 6.  Licensing Costs

                    The  Company  acquired  an  exclusive  license to a patented
process for a non-invasive test to diagnose Alzheimer's disease during 1994. The
license agreement provides, among other things, for the payment of a royalty fee
equal to 5% of the net sales price of licensed  products,  with a minimum annual
royalty of $25,000  beginning in the fourth year of the  agreement.  The term of
the license  expires in 2009, at which time the Company can continue to sell the
products without any royalty fee.

                    Additionally,  the Company  entered into  another  exclusive
license agreement during 1994 to market a patented antiviral composition method,
with a royalty  due equal to 5% of net sales  and a minimum  annual  royalty  of
$25,000 beginning with the fourth year of the agreement.  The Company will incur
a one-time  payment of  $40,000  upon  reaching  $250,000  in sales of  products
resulting  from this license.  The license will terminate with the expiration of
the aforementioned patent.

                    The  components  of  aforementioned  licensing  costs are as
follows:

Note 9.  Long-term Debt (continued)

     (a) In July,  1993,  the Company's  pharmaceutical  subsidiary  settled its
litigation with the United States  Attorney's  Office for $350,000 in connection
with  investigations  directed at the generic drug industry,  involving  alleged
misconduct  in the  filing  and  obtaining  approval  of  Abbreviated  New  Drug
Applications  ("ANDA's").  In connection with the settlement,  the United States
Attorney's  office has a claim  against  the  Company for failure to pay, in its
entirety,  its last  installment due July 8, 1996, plus accrued  interest.  As a
precondition of the settlement, if the subsidiary defaulted on any of the agreed
upon payments, the unpaid balance of the settlement could become immediately due
and payable,  with interest  charged at the statutory rate from the closing date
for the unpaid balance.  It is unknown at this time whether the U.S.  Attorney's
office  will  seek to  enforce  its  right to  demand  the full  payment  of the
outstanding  obligation and interest  thereon.  The Company is currently  making
monthly  payments to liquidate  the debt and at October 31, 1996,  the remaining
outstanding balance was $85,000.

     (b) On December 31, 1994,  the Company  issued a note payable to one of its
convertible debenture holders for $130,982, representing all accrued interest to
said date.  The note  matures  October 1, 1998 and bears  interest  at 12.5% per
annum,  payable in quarterly  installments.  The Company on  September  30, 1996
issued convertible  debentures in exchange for the  aforementioned  note payable
and issued  additional  debentures  for accrued  interest  of  $271,959  through
September 30, 1996 on all the outstanding debentures (Note 10).

     (c) In March,  1996,  the Company  entered into a stipulation of settlement
agreement  with its former legal counsel for unpaid legal fees.  The  settlement
provides for monthly payments of $7,000,  increasing to $12,000,  with the final
payment due on or before  August 1, 1998.  In the event of  default,  the entire
unpaid balance will become immediately due and payable, with interest due on the
unpaid  principal  balance from the date of default at the rate of 9% per annum.
This  obligation is  collateralized  by certain  manufacturing  equipment of the
Company.

     (d) On May 13, 1996, the Company  entered into a bridge loan agreement with
a financial  institution  under which it borrowed  $382,383.  The loan agreement
provides,  among other  things,  for  monthly  principal  repayments  of amounts
varying  from  $15,000 to  $22,000.  The loan  matures  on October 7, 1996.  All
accrued  interest  was to be paid in  October,  1996 at a rate of 1%  above  the
commercial prime lending rate. The loan is collateralized by all receivables and
tangible  assets of the  Company.  The  Company  is not in  compliance  with the
payment terms of the agreement.

                                          ==========     
Note 10. Convertible Debentures Payable

     The Company had  outstanding at September 30, 1996 and 1995 an aggregate of
$1,402,941  and  $1,000,000 of convertible  debentures,  respectively.  In June,
1995,  the Company  converted  $150,000 of the  aforementioned  debentures  into
600,000  shares of common  stock.  The Company at September 30, 1996 issued four
additional convertible debentures aggregating $402,941 (Note 9(b)).

     The  convertible  debentures  outstanding  at September  30, 1995 mature on
October 1, 1998, with optional redemptions  available on October 1, 1996 at 110%
of par, and each subsequent year to maturity at 105% of par. The debentures bear
interest  at the  rate  of  12.5%  per  annum  which  is  payable  in  quarterly
installments.  Under the original terms of the debentures,  mandatory  principal
redemption  installments  were to be made quarterly to maturity in the amount of
$30 per $1,000 of the remaining  outstanding  principal,  commencing  October 1,
1996.  The  Company  obtained  an  extension  until  December  15,  1996 for the
aforementioned  redemption  installments.  The  debentures,  as amended,  do not
require mandatory principal redemption  requirements and can be converted at any
time into the Company's  common stock in its entirety or in multiples of $1,000,
at conversion  prices equal to the lesser of $.25,  $.27 or 80% of the bid price
per share, dependent upon when the debentures were issued.

     The debentures  further provide that the Company maintain a minimum current
ratio and interest  coverage,  as defined,  and must maintain a certain  minimum
stockholders'  equity. On December 17, 1996, the Company received waivers of the
defaults  that have  occurred  under the  agreements  prior  hereto and  through
January 31, 1997 from the debenture  holders.  If an event of default  exists or
occurs,  as defined,  subsequent to January 31, 1997 the debentures and interest
thereon may become due and payable at the discretion of the debenture holders.

     The Company entered into a Debenture  Conversion  Agreement on December 15,
1996,  whereby $300,000 of convertible  debentures were converted into 1,200,000
shares of the Company's common stock.

Note 11. Stock Options

     In 1993,  the Company  adopted a stock  option  plan under  which  selected
eligible key  employees of the Company are granted the  opportunity  to purchase
shares of the Company's  common stock.  The plan provides that 750,000 shares of
the Company's authorized common stock be reserved for issuance under the plan as
either incentive stock options or non-qualified options.  Options are granted at
prices not less than 100 percent of the fair  market  value at the date of grant
and are  exercisable  over a period of ten years (subject to an initial one year
restrictive  period) or as long as that person continues to be employed or serve
on the Board of Directors, whichever is shorter. Under the 1993 plan, no options
may be granted subsequent to January 5, 2003.

     Information  regarding  stock  options  as at and for the two  years  ended
September 30, 1996 is summarized below:

                              1996                     1995

Note 13. Income Taxes

     The  Company,  as  of  September  30,  1996,  has  available  approximately
$26,750,000  of net operating  loss carry  forwards  (expiring  through the year
2011) to  reduce  future  Federal  and state  income  taxes.  Since  there is no
guarantee  that the related  deferred tax asset will be realized by reduction of
taxes payable on taxable  income during the carry  forward  period,  a valuation
allowance  has been  computed to offset in its  entirety  the deferred tax asset
attributable to this net operating loss in the amount of $10,700,000.


Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies

     (a)The  operations  and offices of the Company  are  conducted  from leased
premises in Bellport,  New York. The Company is negotiating  for a new lease and
is currently on a month to month basis.

     Total  rent  expense  for  the two  years  ended  September  30,  1996  was
approximately $158,000 and $156,000 for the year ended September 30, 1994.

     (b)The Company is involved in an  administrative  proceeding  commenced by,
and pending  before a Regents Review  Committee of the New York State  Education
Department.  The  proceeding  was  commenced  to  determine  whether  or not the
Company's  license to operate as a manufacturer in New York should be revoked or
suspended,  based upon the  Company's  1993  guilty  plea in Federal  Court on a
variety of charges related to ANDA filings with the Food and Drug Administration
("FDA") in 1988 and 1989  (Note  9(a)).  A hearing  before  the  Regents  Review
Committee is scheduled to take place in March, 1997.  Company's legal counsel is
of the opinion that there is ample basis for  reaching a reasonable  disposition
of this matter without affecting the Company's manufacturing operations.

     Amswiss Scientific,  Inc. ("Amswiss") (Note 16) commenced an action against
the Company in the U. S. District Court for the southern district of New York on
December 16, 1996.  Amswiss  asserted a claim for an amount to be ascertained at
trial, but believed by Amswiss to be at least two million dollars, plus cost and
attorney's  fees  arising  from the  alleged  failure  of the  Company to file a
Registration  Statement with the Securities and Exchange  Commission for certain
shares and warrants of the Company owned by Amswiss.

     As of September  30, 1996,  the Company is involved in various  other legal
actions,  none of which Management  believes will have a material adverse affect
on the operations of the Company.

Note 15. Employment Contract

     The  Company  has an  employment  agreement  with its  President  and Chief
Executive Officer for a period of five years, commencing October 1, 1994, for an
annual salary of $130,000 per year,  plus certain fringe  benefits.  Pursuant to
the terms of the  agreement,  the  Officer  will  receive a bonus based upon the
profitability  of the Company,  (5% of the annual pre-tax profit up to a maximum
bonus of $1,500,000 per year).

Note 16. Joint Venture Agreement

     In November, 1993, the Company acquired from Amswiss all of Amswiss' rights
to  certain   pharmaceutical   assets,   including  all  agreements,   licenses,
applications,  approvals,  trademarks  and trade  names,  for which the  Company
issued to Amswiss  four  million  shares of its  common  stock and  warrants  to
purchase  an  additional  two  million  shares  valued at $2.00 per  share.  The
acquisition  agreement  provided,  that of the  shares  and  warrants  issued to
Amswiss,  800,000  common shares and warrants to purchase  400,000 common shares
would be subject to  forfeiture  and  cancellation  in the event the  Company is
unable to obtain final FDA approval of certain New Drug  Applications  ("NDA's")
on or before December 31, 1995. The Company  re-evaluated  its investment in the
Amswiss  assets as of September 30, 1995.  Due to the Company's  lack of working
capital at the time,  the cost of the NDA filing and new  diagnostic  techniques
for cervical  cancer that  significantly  reduce  potential  future sales of the
Amswiss  Drugs,  the  Company  decided to  write-off  the  adjusted  unamortized
acquired Amswiss assets aggregating $5,526,587.

     In addition,  as a result of the  Company's  non-filing  of the NDA's,  the
Company recorded the forfeiture of the aforementioned  800,000 common shares and
warrants   which   resulted  in  a  charge  to  common   stock  and   additional
paid-in-capital  aggregating $1,381,647. With respect to the shares and warrants
issued to Amswiss  that were not  subject to  forfeiture,  the  Company  granted
registration  rights for one half of the shares and  warrants  six months  after
closing and the balance of the shares and warrants,  one year after the closing.
As  of  September  30,  1995,   Amswiss  exercised  their  right  to  request  a
registration  of one half of their available  shares and warrants.  At September
30, 1995,  the Company also canceled a contingent  non-negotiable,  non-interest
bearing $250,000 note, issued to Amswiss, which was due upon the FDA approval by
December 31,  1995.  See Note 14 for  commencement  of an action by Amswiss with
regard to the aforementioned registration.

Note 16. Joint Venture Agreement (continued)

     On September 25, 1996, the Company  entered into a joint venture  agreement
with Advanced Biological Systems,  Inc., who subsequently  changed their name to
ABS  Group,  Inc.  ("ABS"),  for the  completion  of the  regulatory  process to
commercialize  for ultimate sale certain  cancer drugs  purchased by the Company
from Amswiss.  All funding for the joint venture will be provided for by ABS and
the Company will be responsible for handling the management of the project.

     The joint venture agreement provides,  among other things, the payment of a
total of a minimum of  $2,750,000 to the Company in cash and/or  securities  for
the sub-license, previously acquired from Amswiss. Payment terms include 425,000
shares of restricted  common stock of ABS and $150,000 in cash  represented by a
promissory  note payable on or before  October 31,  1996.  Said note was paid in
full on November 1, 1996.  The balance of the  payments  are to occur in varying
amounts of common  shares and or cash  coinciding  with filings with the FDA and
the approval of various investigational new drug applications.  Additionally,  a
contribution to the joint venture of $1,000,000 is to be made by ABS as follows:
i) $400,000  by October 31,  1996,  ii)  $300,000 by February  28, 1997 and iii)
$300,000 by August 31, 1997. Of the first $400,000  contribution,  only $150,000
has been made.  The Company  would share in the net profits from the sale of the
approved  drug on a 60/40 basis until it had recovered at least  $2,000,000  and
then share on the basis of 55/45 on subsequent profits.

     The Company in 1996  recorded  as income  $400,750,  representing  the note
received of $150,000 (which was collected in November,  1996) and $250,750,  the
value of 425,000 shares of ABS restricted common shares issued,  pursuant to the
joint venture  agreement.  The value of the  restricted  common shares was based
upon an independent appraisal made by an investment banking firm.

Note 17. Gain (Loss) on Discontinued Operations

     In August,  1992,  the Company  obtained an exclusive  license for the mass
market  manufacture  and  distribution  of Treo. The Company had been engaged in
litigation  with its Treo  licensor  since 1994 over,  among other  things,  the
promotion  and  marketing  of the  product.  As a result of a November  16, 1995
preliminary  court order issued by the United  States  District  Court,  Eastern
District of New York, the Company was enjoined from selling Treo during the 1996
selling season.  As a result of the Court's decision,  the Company  discontinued
the  manufacturing  of Treo  and  reclassified  its  results  of  operations  as
discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations
for the year ended September 30, 1995.

Note 17. Gain (Loss) on Discontinued Operations (continued)

     In September 1996, pursuant to a Board of Directors resolution, the Company
filed a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy  petition in the United States  District  Court for
the  Eastern  District  of New York on  December  13,  1996 for its  subsidiary,
Biopharm Lab, Inc., the  distributor of Treo. As a result  thereof,  the Company
wrote off the  excess of  liabilities  over the  subsidiaries  assets,  which is
reflected as a gain on disposal of discontinued  operations in its  consolidated
statement of operations for the year ended September 30, 1996.

     A summary  of the  operating  results  of  discontinued  operations  are as
follows:
