HALSEY DRUG CO., INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Halsey Drug Co., Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary
for the Nine months ended September 30, 1997 have been made, but the financial
results for the six month period ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ended December
31, 1997. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1996 included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
As of September 30, 1997, the Company has a working capital (deficiency) of
approximately ($17,282,000) has a stockholders' equity (deficit) of
approximately ($13,666,000) and has incurred a loss of approximately
($8,765,000) during the Nine months ended September 30, 1997, and is not in
compliance with its financial covenants pursuant to its banking agreement and
its convertible subordinated debenture agreement. In addition, the Company is
delinquent in the payment of its payroll taxes and the Company's credit
agreement with its banks expired June 30, 1997. These factors and other matters
as discussed in Annual Report on Form 10-K at December 31, 1996, raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue in existence. Management's plans with respect to those
conditions include seeking alternative sources of financing. In this regard, the
Company (a) is reviewing several unsolicited expressions of interest from
prospective joint venture partners and investors, (b) plans to refinance the
Company's bank debt, (c) has sold the rights to one of its products to a major
vendor and has received a commitment for future production of such product. The
Company has submitted Abbreviated New Drug Applications ("ANDA"), for seven
products, for approval by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and has
received approval on one ANDA for two products on September 25, 1997. There can
be no assurance that management can obtain alternative sources of financing or
obtain approvals for the ANDA's.

NOTE 3 - Debt
As per the agreement with Mallinckrodt Acquisition, Inc. (Mallinckrodt), on
January 9, 1997, the Bank Group received payment of $1,000,000, towards
principal reduction, interest payments and legal expenses which reduced the
principal balance outstanding to approximately $2,476,000.
Pursuant to a Letter Agreement with Mallinckrodt, dated September 21, 1997,
debt to Mallinckrodt, in the amount of $1,900,000, relating to certain
subordinated Notes, accrued interest and accounts payable, has been offset by
$1,900,000 due to the Company as part of the Agreement for the sale of certain
assets, dated March 25, 1995.
During the first quarter of 1997, the Company borrowed from and issued to
certain debenture holders and shareholders, unsecured, demand promissory notes
in the amount of $900,000, bearing interest at 12% per annum, with interest
payable quarterly.

Note 4 - Deferred Gain on Sale of Assets
As per the Agreement with Mallinckrodt, dated March 21, 1995, for the sale
of assets, the Company was to receive payment in the amount of $1,900,000 at the
earliest date of Mallinckrodt receiving certain authorizations from the FDA, or
September 21, 1997. Pursuant to a letter agreement with Mallinckrodt, dated
September 21, 1997, it was agreed between the parties to offset this amount due
to the Company against outstanding Notes (subordinated), accrued interest and
accounts payable due to Mallinckrodt. As a result of this Letter Agreement, the
amount of $1,900,000 has been recorded as a deferred gain on the sale of assets.
This gain will not be realized until March 21, 1998.
NOTE 5 - Contingencies
The Company currently is a defendant in several lawsuits involving product
liability claims. The Company's insurance carriers have assumed the defense for
all product liability and other actions involving the Company. The final outcome
of these lawsuits cannot be determined at this time, and accordingly, no
adjustment has been made to the consolidated financial statements.
A lawsuit was filed against the Company seeking payment of $164,000 in past due
invoices. On August 6, 1997, a Stipulation of Settlement was entered into by the
parties, specifying a fifteen month pay-out.
The Company was named as Defendant in a lawsuit filed on June 5, 1997. The
Complaint seeks payment, in the amount of $35,000, for past due invoices. A
Settlement Agreement reached between the parties on June 18, 1997. The debt was
retired and the matter dismissed on October 10, 1997.
On August 5, 1997, a Stipulation of Dismissal was filed by the Plaintiff in the
matter of Lexington Insurance Company vs. Halsey Drug Co., Inc. 95 CIV 3403.
A lawsuit was filed against the Company, on July 20, 1997, seeking payment of
$9,750 in past due invoices. A Settlement Agreement was reached, specifying
satisfaction of the debt on or before December 31, 1997.
A Landlord-Tenant action was commenced against the Company on March 11, 1997,
for back rent and other charges allegedly due to the Plaintiff. Pursuant to a
Stipulation of Settlement entered into by the parties, all arrearages will be
retired on, or before February 10, 1998.

NOTE 6 - New Accounting Pronouncement
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which is
effective for financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending
after December 31, 1997. Early adoption of the new standard is not permitted.
The new standard eliminates primary and fully diluted earnings per share and
requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share together with
disclosure of how the per share amounts were computed. The adoption of this new
standard is not expected to have material impact on the disclosure of earnings
per share in the financial statements.

Nine months ended September 30, 1997 vs Nine months ended September 30, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net Sales
The Company's net sales for the Nine months ended September 30, 1997 of
$7,352,000 represents a decrease of $3,228,000 (21.7%) as compared to net sales
for the Nine months ended September 30, 1996 of $10,580,000. This decrease is as
a result of the removal from the marketplace of four products and the withdrawal
of four ANDA's by the Company, pursuant to a requirement by the FDA in October
1996.
Cost of Goods Sold
For the Nine months ended September 30, 1997, cost of goods sold of $
10,666,000 decreased as compared to the Nine months ended September 30, 1996 of
$12,094,000. This is attributable a reduction in sales combined with unabsorbed
manufacturing costs which directly impact upon the Company's cost of sales and
gross margin. Gross margin as a percentage of sales for the Nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was (45.1%) as compared to (14.3%) for the Nine months ended
September 30, 1996. This is attributable to a reduction in sales combined with
the unabsorbed manufacturing costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

the Nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 were 52.8% and 44.2%,
respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses for 1997 are
$3,876,000 as compared to 1996 of $ 1,534,000. This decrease of $ 802,000 is due
to a reduction in staff as well as other cost reduction methods implemented by
the Company.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales for the Nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 were 10.4% and 7.8%, respectively. The

toward the submission of new products to the FDA. The Company has submitted five
Abbreviated New Drug Applications(ANDA's) for seven new products.
On September 25, 1997, the Company received FDA approval for two ANDA's
submitted during 1997. These approvals represent the first ANDA's approved for
the Company, by the FDA, since the Company's release from the FDA's Application
Integrity Policy on December 19, 1996.
Currently, the Company is working on twenty-five additional products which
include six submissions scheduled for this year and twelve submissions scheduled
for 1998.
Net Earnings (Loss)
For the Nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company had net loss of
$8,765,000 as compared to a net loss of $8,333,000 for the Nine months ended
September 30, 1996. This decrease is as a result of unabsorbed manufacturing
costs and the removal from the marketplace of four products and the withdrawal
of four ANDA's by the Company, pursuant to a requirement by the FDA.

Report are looking forward and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions
of the Securities involve risks and uncertainties which may affect Halsey's
business and prospects, including economic, competitive, governmental
technological and other factors discussed in filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. No assurance can be given concerning the timing of the
FDA's review of the Company's ANDA's submitted, that the FDA will grant
marketing clearance with respect to such submissions, or that, if such clearance
is obtained, Halsey will be able to successfully commercialize the launching of
Halsey's products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1997, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $83,000
as compared to $118,000 at December 31, 1996. The Company had a working capital
deficiency at September 30, 1997 of $17,282,000 and $12,201,000 at December 31,
1996.
The removal from the marketplace of four products and the withdrawal of our
ANDA's pursuant to a requirement by the FDA, as a pre-condition to the release
of the Company from the AIP on December 19, 1996 combined with the lack of
available borrowing under the Company's credit agreement, materially, and
adversely affected the Company cash position and has severely limited the
Company's capital resources. The Company has a working capital deficiency of
approximately $17,282,000, a stockholders' equity (deficit) of approximately
$13,666,000, has incurred a loss of approximately $8,765,000 during the Nine
months ended September 30, 1997 and $14,495,000 during the year ended December
31, 1996 and is not in compliance with its financial covenants pursuant to its
banking agreement and its convertible subordinated debenture agreement. In
addition, the Company is delinquent in the payment of its payroll taxes and the
Company's credit agreement with its banks expired June 30, 1997. The Company has
insufficient resources to meet both its current and long-term obligations. These
factors and other matters as discussed in Annual Report on Form 10-K at December
31, 1996, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans with respect to those conditions include
seeking alternative sources of financing. In this regard, the Company (a) is
reviewing several unsolicited expressions of interest from prospective joint
venture partners and investors, (b) plans to refinance the Company's bank debt,
(c) has sold the rights to one of its products to a major vendor and has
received a commitment for future production of such product and submitted
Abbreviated New Drug Applications ("ANDA") for approval by the Food and Drug
Administration ("FDA"). On September 25, 1997, the Company received FDA approval
for two ANDA's submitted during 1997. These approvals represent the first ANDA's
approved for the Company, by the FDA, since the Company's release from the FDA's
Application Integrity Policy on December 19, 1996. There can be no assurance
that management can obtain alternative sources of financing or obtain approvals
for the ANDA's. Failure to obtain alternative sources of financing or infusion
of capital in the near term will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
operations and financial condition.
The Company's Credit Agreement with its banks, which expired on December 31,
1996, was extended to June 30, 1997. As per the agreement with Mallinckrodt, on
January 9, 1997, the Bank Group received payment of $1,000,000, towards
principal reduction, interest payments and legal expenses that reduced the
principal balance outstanding to approximately $2,476,000.
Debt
During the second quarter of 1997, the Company received funds, in the
amount of $3,000,000, from the proposed purchaser of the Company's Indiana
facility. These funds were tendered during the due diligence period, as an
unsecured advance against anticipated payment, by the proposed purchaser, at the
consummation of the transaction. In the event that the transaction is not
realized, the funds convert to a non-collaterized, one year loan to the Company.
As per an Agreement with Mallinckrodt, dated March 21, 1995, for the sale of
assets, the Company was to receive payment in the amount of $1,900,000 at the
earliest date of Mallinckrodt receiving certain authorizations from the FDA, or
September 21, 1997. During the third quarter of 1997, pursuant to a letter
agreement with Mallinckrodt, dated September 21, 1997, it was agreed between the
parties to offset the amount due to the Company against outstanding Notes
(subordinated), accrued interest and accounts payable due to Mallinckrodt.
