IMCLONE SYSTEMS INCORPORATED
NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of ImClone Systems Incorporated (the "Company") as
of March 31, 1997 and for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 are
unaudited. In the opinion of management, these unaudited financial statements
include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results
for the full years.
(2) Related Party Transactions
As of March 31, 1997, a promissory note given to the Company by its
President and CEO totaled $113,000. The promissory note covers miscellaneous
cash advances made to the President and CEO through the date of the issuance of
the promissory note in March 1995. The promissory note bears interest at the
rate of 8% compounded quarterly, and by its terms was payable in its entirety
upon the earlier of on demand by the Company or April 30, 1997. The Company has
accepted a new promissory note which replaces the original note (the "new
promissory note") in the aggregate amount of $110,000 from the President and
CEO, The new promissory note is payable as to $15,000 no later than May 15, 1997
and as to the remainder upon the earlier of on demand by the Company or December
31, 1997 and bears interest at the rate of 5% compounded quarterly. The new
promissory note covers the remaining balance of the original note, interest
thereon and additional miscellaneous cash advances made since the date of the
original note totaling $15,000. As of May 15, 1997 the aggregate amount of the
new promissory note, including interest totaled approximately $95,000.
(3) Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation
of average shares outstanding because they are anti-dilutive.
(4) Reclassification
Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to
current year presentation.
(5) Capital Stock
In March 1997, the Company completed a public sale of 3,000,000 shares of
its common stock, $.001 par value, (the "Common Stock") at a per share price to
the public of $7.875. Net proceeds to the Company from the sale totaled
approximately $23,196,000 after deducting expenses payable by the Company in
connection with the offering and the commission paid by the Company.
In March 1997, the Company extended for a two year period the term of an
officer's warrant to purchase 397,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at a
per share exercise price equal to $1.50. In connection with this transaction,
the Company recognized a one-time non-cash compensation expense of approximately
$2,233,000.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis by management is provided to identify
certain significant factors which affected the Company's financial position and
operating results during the period included in the accompanying financial
statements.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
Revenues
Revenues for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
were $75,000 and represented research and development support fees from the
Company's corporate partnership with the Wyeth/Lederle Vaccine division of
American Home Products Corporation ("American Home") in infectious disease
vaccines.
Operating: Research and Development
Total operating expenses for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1997
and March 31, 1996 were $6,478,000 and $3,066,000, respectively. Research and
development expenses for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and March
31, 1996 were $5,395,000 and $2,325,000, respectively. Such amounts for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 represented 83% and
76%, respectively, of total operating expenses. The $3,070,000 increase in
research and development expenses was primarily attributable to a one-time
$2,233,000 non-cash compensation expense recorded in connection with the
extension of the term of an officer's warrant to purchase 397,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock. The increase is also attributable to costs associated
with additional staffing and expenditures in the functional areas of product
development, manufacturing and clinical and regulatory affairs to support the
manufacture of C225 for human clinical trials as well as travel-related expenses
to pursue strategic partnerships for C225 (and other product candidates). The
remaining increase reflects growth in the area of discovery research for future
product candidates.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include administrative personnel costs,
costs incurred in connection with pursuing arrangements with corporate partners
and technology licensors, and expenses associated with applying for patent
protection for the Company's technology and products. Such expenses for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996 were $1,083,000 and
$741,000, respectively, an increase of $342,000 or 46%. The increase in general
and administrative expenses primarily reflects (i) $129,000 in non-cash
compensation expense recorded in connection with an option grant to an officer
and (ii) additional staffing to support the expanding research, clinical,
development and manufacturing efforts of the Company, particularly with its lead
therapeutic product candidate, C225. The Company expects general and
administrative expenses to increase in future periods to support planned
increases in research and development.

<PAGE>
Interest and Other Income/Expense
Interest and other income was $245,000 for the three-month period ended
March 31, 1997 compared to $193,000 for the three-month period ended March 31,
1996, an increase of $52,000 or 27%. The increase was primarily attributable to
the increased interest income earned from higher cash balances in the Company's
investment portfolio resulting from the proceeds received from a public stock
offering completed in March 1997. Interest and other expense was $195,000 and
$347,000 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996,
respectively, a decrease of $152,000 or 44%. Interest and other expense for both
periods primarily includes interest on two outstanding Industrial Development
Revenue Bonds with an aggregate principal amount of $4,313,000 and interest
recorded on the liability to Pharmacia and UpJohn Inc. ("Pharmacia"), for the
reacquisition of the worldwide rights to IL-6m as well as clinical material
manufactured and supplied by Pharmacia to the Company. The decrease was
primarily attributable to the May 1996 exchange of debt for Company Common Stock
with the Oracle Group and a Director. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for
further discussion of these transactions.
Net Losses
The Company had net losses of $6,353,000 or $0.30 per share for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1997, compared with $3,145,000 or $0.18 per
share for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's cash and cash equivalents and securities available for sale
totaled $29,838,000 at May 14, 1997; on March 31, 1997 such balances totaled
$32,368,000. The current balances in the Company's cash and cash equivalents and
securities available for sale reflects the proceeds received from the March 1997
public offering of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock .
In May 1996, the Company extended its collaboration with Merck KGaA
("Merck") for the development of a therapeutic cancer vaccine, BEC-2, for use in
small-cell carcinoma and in malignant melanoma. The collaboration continues a
research and license agreement between the two companies signed in December
1990. Under the terms of the modified agreement, the Company could receive up to
$11,700,000 in license fees, research and development support and milestone
payments in addition to moneys previously received under the original agreement.
In return, Merck will receive marketing rights to BEC-2 for all therapeutic
indications outside North America. Formerly the rights of Merck were confined to
Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Merck will also share in the development
costs for the United States and Europe and will pay all development costs in
other territories. The Company will be entitled to royalties based upon product
sales outside of North America.
In December 1996, the Company signed an agreement with Finova Technology
Finance, Inc. to finance the lease of laboratory and computer-related equipment
and make certain building and leasehold improvements to facilities involving
payments aggregating approximately $2,500,000. At April 30, 1997, the Company
had $2,079,000 available under this agreement.
In December 1996, the Company entered into a technology cross-licensing
agreement with Immunex Corporation ("Immunex") relating to FLT-3/FLK-2 ligand
and its receptor. FLT-3 ligand is a hematopoietic growth factor. Under the terms
of the agreement, the Company has exclusively licensed the receptor to Immunex
for use in the manufacture of the ligand. In return, the Company is entitled to
receive an initial payment of $150,000 and a royalty based on the sales of the
ligand by Immunex and its sub-licensees. Of the initial $150,000 payment,
$75,000 was recorded as license fee revenue for the year ended December 31, 1996
and received in March 1997. The remaining $75,000 is anticipated to be received
during the second quarter of 1997. In addition, Immunex has granted the Company
a non-exclusive license in the United States and Canada to use its patented
FLT-3/FLK-2 ligand, manufactured by Immunex, for ex-vivo stem cell expansion
together with an exclusive license to distribute the ligand with its own
proprietary products for ex-vivo expansion. Immunex has agreed to seek to obtain
the consent of its parent company, American Home, to expand the territory of
this license to include the world outside North America.

<PAGE>
In December 1996, the Company and Abbott Laboratories ("Abbott") modified
their 1992 diagnostic strategic alliance to provide for an exclusive
sublicensing agreement with Chiron Diagnostics ("Chiron") for the Company's
patented DNA signal amplification technology, AMPLIPROBE. Under the terms of the
agreement, all sales of Chiron branched DNA diagnostic probe technology in
countries covered by Company patents will be subject to a royalty to Abbott to
be passed through to the Company. The initial royalty payment of approximately
$225,000, which covered AMPLIPROBE sales from January 1992 through September
1996, was recorded as revenue for the year ended December 31, 1996. The Company
received the initial royalty payment of $225,000 from Abbott in late January
1997. Future royalty revenue will be received quarterly on all Chiron sales of
AMPLIPROBE.
In May 1997, a European patent was issued for the Company's proprietary
Repair Chain Reaction ("RCR") DNA probe technology which was licensed to Abbott
under the 1992 strategic alliance discussed in the preceding paragraph. The
issuance of the patent entitles the Company to receive two milestone payments
totaling $1,000,000 and royalty payments on sales in covered European countries
for products using the Company's RCR technology.
In March 1997, the Company completed a public sale of 3,000,000 shares of
Common Stock at a per share price to the public of $7.875. Net proceeds to the
Company from the sale totaled approximately $23,196,000 after deducting expenses
payable by the Company in connection with the offering and the commission paid
by the Company.
The Company has expended and will continue to expend in the future
substantial funds to continue the research and development of its products,
conduct pre-clinical and clinical trials, establish clinical-scale and
commercial-scale manufacturing in its own facilities or in the facilities of
others, and market its products. In addition, $2,113,000 and $2,200,000,
respectively, in Industrial Development Revenue Bonds issued by the New York
Industrial Development Agency ("NYIDA") on behalf of the Company in 1986 and
1990 become due in December 1997 and May 2004, respectively. The Company has
granted a security interest in substantially all facility equipment located in
its New York City facility to secure the obligations of the Company to the NYIDA
relating to the 1986 and 1990 Industrial Development Revenue Bonds.
In July 1993, the Company entered into a termination agreement with
Erbamont, Inc., now a subsidiary of Pharmacia, to acquire the worldwide rights
to IL-6m, a blood cell growth factor, which had been licensed to Pharmacia
pursuant to a development and licensing agreement. In consideration of the
return of rights and the transfer of certain material and information, the
Company has paid $1,928,000 and has further obligations to Pharmacia. Such
obligations, including those to pay for IL-6 mutein material manufactured and
supplied by Pharmacia, totaled $2,400,000 at March 31, 1996. In addition, the
Company is required to pay Pharmacia $2,700,000 in royalties on eventual sales
of IL-6m, if any. In March, 1996, the Company entered into a Repayment Agreement
with Pharmacia (the "Repayment Agreement") pursuant to which it agreed to pay
the $2,400,000 over 24 months commencing in March 1996, with interest only
payable during the first six months. At April 30, 1997 the remaining obligation
to Pharmacia totaled $1,372,000. In connection with the Repayment Agreement, the
Company signed a Confession of Judgment, which can be filed by Pharmacia with an
appropriate court in the case of default by the Company. Pursuant to a Security
Agreement entered into with Pharmacia, the Company pledged its interests in
patents related to IL-6m and to heparanase to secure its obligations under the
Repayment Agreement.
The Company's future working capital and capital requirements will depend
upon numerous factors, including the progress of the Company's research and
development programs, pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, the Company's
corporate partners fulfilling their obligations to the Company, the timing and
cost of seeking regulatory approvals, the level of resources that the Company
devotes to the development of manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities,
technological advances, the status of competitors and the ability of the Company
to maintain existing and establish new collaborative arrangements with other
companies to provide funding to the Company to support these activities.

<PAGE>
The Company expects to incur substantial funding requirements for the
expansion of operations, including (i) the expansion of the clinical trials of
C225 and the related manufacturing program to support these trials and (ii) in
an effort to develop new product candidates the expansion of research and
development activities including among other things, increased staffing, the
acquisition of equipment, and the consumation of new outside research
agreements. In addition, the entire $1,504,000 of outstanding debt to Pharmacia
is payable ratably throughout the period ending February 1998 and $2,113,000 of
the Industrial Development Revenue Bonds issued by the NYIDA becomes due in
December 1997. The Company expects that its capital resources, including the
ongoing research support of its corporate partners will be sufficient to fund
its operations for approximately the next two years. However, the receipt of
certain of such ongoing research support is subject to attaining research and
development milestones, certain of which have not yet been achieved. These
milestones include the successful completion of a pilot manufacturing run
relating to the BEC-2 cancer vaccine. No assurance can be given that there will
be no change in projected research support (including research and development
milestones) or expenses that would lead to the Company's capital being consumed
at a faster rate than currently expected. In order to fund its capital needs
beyond approximately the next two years, the Company will require significant
levels of additional capital and intends to raise the necessary capital through
additional equity or debt financings, arrangements with corporate partners or
from other sources. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in
consummating any such financings, arrangements with corporate partners or
securing other sources.
The Company has entered into preliminary discussions with several major
pharmaceutical companies concerning the funding of research and development for
certain of its products in research. No assurance can be given that the Company
will be successful in pursuing any such alternatives. In addition, the Company
may seek to enter into a significant strategic partnership with a pharmaceutical
company for the development of its lead product candidate, C225. Such a
strategic alliance could include an up-front equity investment and license fees
plus milestone fees and revenue sharing. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in achieving such an alliance, nor can the Company
predict the amount of funds which might be available to it if it entered into
such an alliance or the time at which such funds would be made available.
The Company has outfitted and purchased equipment for a certain property to
create a clinical-scale production facility that complies with current Good
Manufacturing Practices regulations. To be successful, the Company's products
must be manufactured in commercial quantities in compliance with regulatory
requirements and at acceptable costs. Although the Company has developed
products in the laboratory and in some cases has produced sufficient quantities
of materials for pre-clinical animal trials and early stage clinical trials,
production in late stage clinical or commercial quantities may create technical
challenges for the Company. If it commercializes its products, the Company may
adapt this facility for use as its commercial-scale manufacturing facility.
However, the Company has limited experience in clinical-scale manufacturing and
no experience in commercial-scale manufacturing, and no assurance can be given
that the Company will be able to make the transition to late stage clinical or
commercial production. The timing and any additional costs of adapting the
facility for commercial manufacturing will depend on several factors, including
the progress of products through clinical trials, and are not yet determinable.
Total capital expenditures made during the three months ended March 31,
1997 were $336,000 of which $295,000 related to the refurbishment and equipping
of the Company's manufacturing facility in New Jersey and $41,000 reflected
equipment and computer-related purchases for the corporate office and research
laboratories in New York.
