Nine months ended September 30, 2000 vs nine months ended September 30, 1999

Net Product Revenues

         The Company's net product revenues for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 of $16,903,000 represents an increase of $8,644,000 (104.7%) as
compared to net product revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 of
$8,259,000. This increase is primarily a result of both the recognition of
$5,000,000 of product development revenues associated with the sale of certain
product rights to Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and the revenues from the Core
Products Supply Agreement with Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On an ongoing basis,
the Company expects to generate revenues from the development and manufacture of
both finished dosage and active pharmaceutical ingredients ("API's"), and then
partnering with others for the marketing and distribution of these products.

Cost of Manufacturing

         For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, cost of manufacturing
increased $2,755,000 to $13,965,000 as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 of $11,210,000. This is primarily attributable to the
addition of manufacturing overhead costs from the March, 1999 acquisition of the
Congers manufacturing facility as well as the additional costs associated with
increased sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

         Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were 27.3% and 67.1%,
respectively. Overall these expenses in the first nine months of 2000 decreased
$931,000 over the same period in 1999. The decrease is primarily attributable to
the decreased costs of litigation, professional services, and wages and
benefits.

Research and Development Expenses

        Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were 7.4% and 8.3%, respectively. The
Company's research and development program is concentrating its efforts in three
areas.

First, the Company is continuing development efforts relating to certain API's.
The Company currently manufactures two API's and has seven others under
development.

Second, the Company is proceeding with the development of products, apart from
those obtained from Barr Laboratories, for submission to the FDA. The Company
expects to file an additional three ANDAs with the FDA within the next twelve
months.

Third, the Company is performing the necessary regulatory steps to effect the
transfer of the products obtained from Barr Laboratories in April, 1999 to the
Company. The Company expects to have completed the process for one of these
products by the end of 2000 with an additional six products expected to be
submitted to the FDA for approval in 2001.

Net Income (Loss)

        For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company had net loss
of $7,261,000 as compared to a net loss of $11,958,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. Included in the results for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 was interest expense of $2,860,000 and amortization of deferred debt
discount and private offering costs of $1,834,000 as compared to $1,699,000 and
$1,143,000, respectively, for the year earlier period. Also, included in results
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was a tax benefit of $296,000 from
the settlement of a income tax refund claim originally submitted in 1996.
Additionally, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of equipment of $93,000 in
2000 compared to a gain of $31,000 in 1999.

Three months ended September 30, 2000 vs Three months ended September 30, 1999

Net Product Revenues

         The Company's net product revenues for the three months ended September
30, 2000 of $4,686,000 represents a increase of $2,218,000 (89.9%) as compared
to net product revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1999 of
$2,468,000. This increase is primarily a result of the recognition of revenues
from the Core Products Supply Agreement with Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On an
ongoing basis, the Company expects to generate revenues from the development and
manufacture of both finished dosage and active pharmaceutical ingredients
("API's"), and then partnering with others for the marketing and distribution of
these products.

Cost of Manufacturing

         For the three months ended September 30, 2000, cost of manufacturing
increased by approximately $1,387,000 as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 1999. The increase for 2000 is attributable to additional costs
associated with increased sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

         Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 were 30.2% and 81.9%,
respectively. The decrease of $607,000 is due primarily to decreased costs of
litigation and professional services, and wages and benefits.

Research and Development Expenses

         Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was 12.2% and 13.4%,
respectively. The Company's research and development program is concentrating
its efforts in three areas.

First, the Company is continuing development efforts relating to certain API's.
The Company currently manufactures two API's and has seven others under
development.

Second, the Company is proceeding with the development of products, apart from
those obtained from Barr Laboratories, for submission to the FDA. The Company
expects to file an additional three ANDA with the FDA within the next twelve
months.

Third, the Company is performing the necessary regulatory steps to effect the

Company. The Company expects to have completed the process for one of these
products by the end of 2000 with an additional six products expected to be
submitted to the FDA for approval in 2001.


Net Income (Loss)

        For the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Company had a net
loss of $4,124,000 as compared to a net loss of $4,672,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1999. Included in the results for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 was interest expense of $966,000 and amortization of deferred
debt discount and private offering costs of $612,000 as compared to $536,000 and
$479,000, respectively, for the year earlier period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         At September 30, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$3,333,000 as compared to $786,000 at December 31, 1999. The Company had working
capital at September 30, 2000 of $1,778,000 as compared to a working capital
deficiency of $5,181,000 at December 31, 1999.

         On March 29, 2000, the Company completed various strategic alliance
transactions with Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Watson"). The transactions with
Watson provided for Watson's purchase of a certain pending ANDA from the
Company, for Watson's rights to negotiate for Halsey to manufacture and supply
certain identified future products to be developed by Halsey, for Watson's
marketing and sale of the Company's core products and for Watson's extension of
a $17,500,000 term loan to the Company.

         The product acquisition portion of the transactions with Watson
provided for Halsey's sale of a pending ANDA and related rights (the "Product")
to Watson for aggregate consideration of $13,500,000 (the "Product Acquisition
Agreement"). As part of the execution of the Product Acquisition Agreement, the
Company and Watson executed ten year supply agreements covering the active
pharmaceutical ingredient ("API") and finished dosage form of the Product
pursuant to which Halsey, at Watson's discretion, will manufacture and supply
Watson's requirements for the Product API and, where the Product API is sourced
from the Company, finish dosage forms of the Product. The purchase price for the
Product is payable in three approximately equal installments as certain
milestones are achieved. The first of those milestones is the receipt of FDA
approval to manufacture the Product. On April 28, 2000 the Company received this
approval and Watson paid the first milestone payment of $5,000,000 to the
Company.

         The Company and Watson also executed a right of first negotiation
agreement providing Watson with a first right to negotiate the terms under which
the Company would manufacture and supply certain specified APIs and finished
dosage products to be developed by the Company. The right of first negotiation
agreement provides that upon Watson's exercise of its right to negotiate for the
supply of a particular product, the parties will negotiate the specific terms of
the manufacturing and supply arrangement, including price, minimum purchase
requirements, if any, territory and term. In the event Watson does not exercise
its right of first negotiation upon receipt of written notice from the Company
as to its receipt of applicable governmental approval relating to a covered
product, or in the event the parties are unable to reach agreement on the
material terms of a supply arrangement relating to such product within sixty
(60) days of Watson's exercise of its right to negotiate for such product, the
Company may negotiate with third parties for the supply, marketing and sale of
the applicable product. The right of first negotiation agreement has a term of
ten years, subject to extension in the absence of written notice from either
party for two additional periods of five years each. The right of first
negotiation agreement applies only to API and finished dosage products
identified in the agreement and does not otherwise prohibit the Company from
developing APIs or finished dosage products for itself or third parties.

         The Company and Watson also completed a manufacturing and supply
agreement providing for Watson's marketing and sale of the Company's existing
core products portfolio (the "Core Products Supply Agreement"). The Core
Products Supply Agreement obligates Watson to purchase a minimum amount of
approximately $18,363,000 (the "Minimum Purchase Agreement") in core products
from the Company, in equal quarterly installments over a period of 18 months
(the "Minimum Purchase Period"). At the expiration of the Minimum Purchase
Period if Watson does not continue to satisfy the Minimum Purchase Amount, the
Company may market and sell the core products on its own or through a third
party. Pending the Company's development and receipt of regulatory approval for
its APIs and finished dosage products currently under development, including,
without limitation, the Product sold to Watson, and the marketing and sale of
same, of which there can be no assurance, substantially all the Company's
revenues will be derived from the Core Products Supply Agreement with Watson and
the purchase price installments relating to the Product purchased by Watson as
described above.
<PAGE>   14
         The final component of the Company's strategic alliance with Watson
provided for Watson's extension of a $17,500,000 term loan to the Company. The
loan will be funded in installments upon the Company's request for advances and
the provision to Watson of a supporting use of proceeds relating to each such
advance. As of September 30, 2000, Watson had advanced $12,000,000 to the
Company under the Watson term loan. The loan is secured by a first lien on all
of the Company's assets, senior to the lien securing all other Company
indebtedness, carries a floating rate of interest equal to prime plus two
percent and matures on March 31, 2003. At September 30, 2000, a portion of the
net proceeds of the Watson term loan were used to satisfy in full the
approximately $3,300,000 in bridge financing provided by Galen Partners, to
satisfy payment obligations under the Settlement Agreement with the landlord of
its Brooklyn, New York facility, to begin upgrades and equip the Company's
Congers, New York facility, to begin upgrades and equip the API manufacturing
facility of Houba, Inc., the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary and for working
capital. The remaining net proceeds from the term loan will, in large part, be
used to continue the upgrades and equipment at both the API manufacturing
facility of Houba, Inc. and the Company's Congers, New York facility, and for
working capital to fund continued operations.

The remaining net proceeds from the Watson term loan combined with the payments
to be received by the Company from Watson under each of the Product Acquisition
Agreement and the Core Products Supply Agreement will provide the Company with
sufficient working capital to fund operations for at least the next twelve
months.
