                      NASTECH PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY INC.
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 -- GENERAL

         The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements, including the notes thereto, as of and
for the six months ended December 31, 1996.

         The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim
periods.


NOTE 2 -- PUBLIC OFFERING

         The Company completed a public offering of 1,380,000 shares of common
stock at $14.00 per share in the current period.  The proceeds to the Company
of $17,469,000 was net of direct expenses of the offering totaling $1,851,000.
In connection with this public offering, the Company has agreed to issue to the
representatives of the underwriters warrants to purchase in the aggregate up to
69,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Representatives' Warrants") at an exercise
price per share equal to 120% of the public offering price per share.  The
Representatives' Warrants are exercisable for a period of four years commencing
January 24, 1998.  The holders of the Representatives' Warrants will have no
voting, dividend or other stockholder rights until the Representatives'
Warrants are exercised. The Company has granted the Representatives certain
registration rights related to the Representatives' Warrants.

NOTE 3 -- INVENTORIES

         At March 31, 1997, raw material inventories are stated at the lower of
cost (first- in first- out basis) or market value.


NOTE 4 -- NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE

          Net income per common and common equivalent share are calculated
using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period and the net additional number of shares which would be issuable upon the
exercise of stock options and warrants, assuming that the Company used the
proceeds received to purchase additional shares at market value.  For the three
months ending March 31, 1997, the effect of stock options and warrants is not
included because it would be antidilutive.

NOTE 5 -- INCOME TAXES

         At March 31, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $4,400,000 for income tax purposes, available to reduce future
taxable income, expiring from 2000 through 2011. Federal income taxes normally
provided for income have been offset by the effects of the reduction of the
valuation allowance for the three months ended March 31, 1996.

ITEM 2 -         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                 AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

         Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in
this Item are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties
which may cause the Company's actual results in future periods to differ
materially from forecasted results.  Those include, among others, risks
associated with the Company's business strategy, product development, plans
concerning the commercialization of products, certain financial information and
other statements that are not historical facts.

         The Company is engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and
commercialization of nasally administered forms of prescription and
over-the-counter pharmaceuticals that are currently delivered in oral,
injectable or other dosage forms.  The nasal delivery of certain
pharmaceuticals can enable more rapid systemic absorption, lower required
dosages, quicker onset of desired effect, and painless, convenient patient
self-administration.

         In December 1991, Bristol-Meyers Squibb Company ("BMS") received
marketing approval from the FDA for a nasal formulation of Stadol NS, a
narcotic analgesic, which was sublicensed to BMS by the Company pursuant to the
BMS Agreement.  In 1992, the Company began to generate revenues from the
receipt of royalties in connection with the BMS Agreement.  On November 5,
1996, the Company received FDA marketing clearance for Nascobal(TM), its
Vitamin B-12 nasal gel.  The Company's pipeline includes nine additional drugs,
five of which are being developed under collaborative agreements with other
pharmaceutical companies.  Through at least June 30, 1997, the Company expects
revenues to consist principally of revenues from BMS.  The Company does not
expect revenues from its Nascobal(TM) product until after September 1, 1997.

         In the past, the Company's product development strategy has generally
been to seek strategic alliances in order to minimize the risk, time and cost
typically associated with the early stages of commercializing a family of
pharmaceuticals.  The Company believes it is now able to leverage its product
development experience and broad product pipeline to pursue internally funded
development projects.  The Company believes that postponing the establishment
of strategic alliances until later stages of product development will allow the
Company to negotiate more favorable collaborative agreements and retain product
rights.  Therefore, the Company intends to commit significant financial
resources to research, development and sales and marketing with the goal of
achieving greater economic benefit from product sales.  As a result of this
increased investment in the development of the Company's product pipeline, the
Company does not expect to be profitable until at least through 1998.

         On February 11, 1997, the Company changed its year end from June 30 to
December 31.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended 
March 31, 1996

         Revenues.   Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997
increased by $75,000 to $1,140,000, or 7%, more than such revenues for the
three months ended March 31, 1996.  This increase was due to decreases in
license fee, royalty and research income, which for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 decreased by $171,000 to $838,000, or 17%, less than such income
for the three months ended March 31, 1996, which were more than offset by an
increase in interest income. The license fee, royalty and research income 
decrease primarily was due to a decrease in research income of $150,000.  
Royalty income received from the BMS Agreement for the current three-month 
period decreased by $22,000 to $829,000, or 3%, from such income for the 
similar period in 1996.  Interest income for the current three-month period
increased by $246,000 to $302,000, or 439%, compared to such income for
the similar period in 1996 due to an increase in the amount of excess funds
invested from proceeds received from the 1997 public offering and exercise of
warrants from the 1993 offering.

         Research and development expense.   In the three months ended March
31, 1997, the Company continued to conduct pharmaceutical and pharmacological
research and assemble the technical and reference data required to gain
marketing approval from the appropriate regulatory agencies for nine new drug
products.  Preclinical and clinical research and development expense for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 increased by $335,000 to $589,000, or





                                     - 6 -
<PAGE>   9
132%, over such expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996.  Such
increase was due to the execution of the Company's strategy to accelerate
development of its nasal pharmaceutical formulations.

         Royalties expense.   Royalties expense for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 decreased by $14,000 to $404,000, or 3%, from such expense for
the three months ended March 31, 1996.  Such decrease was due to the decrease
in royalties paid by the Company to the UKRF in connection with the BMS
Agreement.  Pursuant to a separate license agreement between the Company and
UKRF, the Company pays UKRF royalties based on royalty income received by the
Company under the BMS Agreement.  Accordingly, royalties expense in connection
with the BMS Agreement increases or decreases approximately in proportion to
royalty income.

         Sales and Marketing.  Sales and marketing expense for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 increased by $146,000 to $170,000, or 608%, as compared to
the 1996 period primarily as a result of expenses associated with the planned
launch of the Company's Nascobal(TM) product later this year.  Sales and
marketing costs also include expenses incurred related to development of the
Company's collaborative agreements.

         General and administrative expense.   General and administrative
expense for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased by $173,000 to
$339,000, or 104% over such expense for the three months ended March 31, 1996
due to increased staffing costs and other support costs associated with the
accelerated development of the Company's nasal pharmaceutical formulations and
strategic planning.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At March 31, 1997, the Company's liquidity included cash and cash
equivalents and short-term investments of $28.4 million compared to $11.5
million at December 31, 1996.  These amounts consisted primarily of the funds
received from the recent 1997 public offering and the exercise of warrants
outstanding from the Company's December 1993 public offering.  Royalties and
fees receivable at March 31, 1997, consists principally of royalty income
receivable pursuant to the BMS Agreement.

         The Company anticipates that  the availability of funds provided by
the BMS Agreement as well as the liquidity provided by the public offerings
noted above will be used for (i) research and development, including clinical
trials, (ii) initial marketing and product launch expenses with respect to
Nascobal(TM), (iii) capital expenditures, principally for manufacturing, (iv)
license or acquisition of products and technologies for product development and
(v) working capital and other general corporate purposes.

         At March 31, 1997, the Company had working capital of $28.3 million.
Management anticipates that its current cash position, together with cash
generated from operations will provide adequate funds for the Company's
anticipated needs, including working capital, through 1998.  Based upon the
anticipated future financing requirements of the Company, management expects
that the Company may, from time to time, engage in additional financings of a
character and in amounts to be determined.
