               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Board of Directors
Theragenics Corporation

         We have  audited  the  balance  sheets of  Theragenics  Corporation  (a
Delaware  corporation)  as of  December  31,  1996  and  1997,  and the  related
statements  of earnings,  shareholders'  equity,  and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1997.  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 audit 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 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  financial  position  of  Theragenics
Corporation  as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended  December 31,
1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           December 31, 1996 and 1997



NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

   Theragenics  Corporation  (the  "Company")  was organized in November 1981 to
   develop,  manufacture,  and market  radiological  pharmaceuticals and devices
   used in the  treatment  of  cancer.  The  Company  manufactures  and  markets
   primarily one product, TheraSeed(R), which is used primarily in the treatment
   of prostate  cancer.  Use of the  Company's  product is regulated by the U.S.
   Food and Drug  Administration  (FDA).  Under a marketing and sales  agreement
   executed with Indigo  Medical,  Inc.  (Indigo) in May 1997,  (see Note F) all
   TheraSeed(R)  products used in the  treatment of prostate  cancer are sold to
   Indigo.  The  TheraSeed(R)  product is utilized by hospitals,  physicians and
   other health service providers in the United States. The Company therefore is
   directly  affected  by  changes  in  technology,  as it may  apply to  cancer
   treatment,  and by FDA  regulations  and the well  being of the  health  care
   industry.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant  accounting  policies  consistently  applied in the
preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

   1.Use of Estimates

   In preparing  financial  statements in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
   accounting  principles  ("GAAP"),  management  is  required  to make  certain
   estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the  reported  amounts of assets and
   liabilities  and the disclosure of contingent  assets and  liabilities at the
   date of the  financial  statements  and  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
   reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   2.Cash and Short-Term Investments

   For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and short-term investments include
   cash on hand,  cash in banks and variable rate demand notes with original
   maturities of less than 90 days.

   3.Marketable Securities

   Marketable  securities  are classified as available for sale and are reported
   at fair value. Fair value is based upon quoted market prices. At December 31,
   1997,  marketable  securities  consisted of municipal and hospital  authority
   obligations.  Marketable  securities of $6,891,807 mature within one year and
   marketable  securities  of  $1,500,000  mature  in  2004  with  a put  option
   exercisable  in 1998.  At December  31,  1997,  the fair value of  marketable
   securities approximated amortized cost. No marketable securities were held at
   December 31, 1996.


                                      -18-

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

   4.Inventories

   Inventories  are  stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is  determined
   using the specific  identification  method which  approximates  the first-in,
   first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist primarily of work in process.

   5.Property, Equipment, Depreciation and Amortization

   Property and  equipment  are recorded at  historical  cost.  Depreciation  is
   provided for in amounts  sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable  assets
   to operations over their estimated  services lives on a straight-line  basis.
   Depreciation  and  amortization  expense  related to property  and  equipment
   charged to operations was approximately  $810,000,  $1,044,000 and $1,458,000
   for  1995,  1996 and  1997,  respectively.  Estimated  services  lives are as
   follows:

                  Building and improvements               30 years
                  Machinery, leasehold improvements,
                    furniture and equipment             5-10 years

   A significant portion of the Company's depreciable assets are utilized in the
   production   of  its   product.   Management   periodically   evaluates   the
   realizability  of its  depreciable  assets in light of its  current  industry
   environment.  Management  believes that no impairment of  depreciable  assets
   exists at December  31,  1997.  It is possible,  however,  that  management's
   estimates  concerning the realizability of the Company's  depreciable  assets
   could  change  in the  near  term due to  changes  in the  technological  and
   regulatory environment.

   The primary machinery and equipment  utilized in the Company's  manufacturing
   process  has been  acquired  from one  vendor.  Currently,  the  Company  has
   contracts for additional manufacturing equipment with this vendor. Management
   believes that the vendor has the ability to continue to deliver the equipment
   in accordance with the terms of the contracts. Any inability of the vendor to
   meet its  obligations  for  delivery of the  equipment  could have an adverse
   affect on the Company's ability to increase its production capacity.

   6.Patent Costs

   The Company  capitalizes the costs of patent  applications  for its products.
   Amortization is computed on a straight line basis over the estimated economic
   lives of the patents,  commencing at the date of grant of the related patent.
   Patent costs are net of  accumulated  amortization  of $47,295 and $56,144 at
   December  31,  1996 and 1997,  respectively.  Amortization  related to patent
   costs charged to operations was approximately $8,000,  $10,000 and $9,000 for
   1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

   7.Income Taxes

   The Company  accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability  method.
   Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
   future tax  consequences  attributable  to differences  between the financial
   statement  carrying  amounts of  existing  assets and  liabilities  and their
   respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
   enacted  tax rates  applied to taxable  income.  The effect on  deferred  tax
   assets and  liabilities  of a change in tax rates is  recognized in income in
   the period  that  includes  the  enactment  date.  A valuation  allowance  is
   provided  for  deferred  tax assets  when it is more likely than not that the
   asset will not be realized.

   8.Research and Development Costs

   The costs of research and development  and consumable  supplies and materials
   to be  used  for the  development  of the  Company's  intended  products  are
   expensed when incurred.

   9.Advertising

   The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising expense
   for the  years  ended  December  31,  1995,  1996 and 1997 was  approximately
   $139,000, $229,000 and $230,000, respectively.

   10. Earnings Per Share

   The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS
   128),  Earnings Per Share, in the fourth quarter of 1997.  Basic net earnings
   per common share is based upon the weighted  average  number of common shares
   outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common share is based
   upon the weighted  average number of common shares  outstanding plus dilutive
   potential common shares,  including options and warrants  outstanding  during
   the  period.  All  comparative  earnings  per share  data for  prior  periods
   presented has been restated.

   11. Stock Based Compensation

   The Company's  stock option plans are accounted for under the intrinsic value
   method in which  compensation  expense is recognized for the amount,  if any,
   that the fair value of the underlying common stock exceeds the exercise price
   at the date of grant.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

   12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

   The  Company's   financial   instruments   include  cash,  cash  equivalents,
   marketable securities and long-term debt. The carrying value of cash and cash
   equivalents  approximates  fair value due to the  relatively  short period to
   maturity  of  the  instruments.   Marketable  securities  are  classified  as
   available for sale and are reported at fair value.  The carrying value of the
   Company's long-term obligations  approximates fair value based upon borrowing
   rates  currently  available  to the Company for  borrowings  with  comparable
   maturities.

   13. Hedging Activities

   The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge the price
   risks associated with equipment purchase  commitments  denominated in foreign
   currencies. The forward contracts typically mature concurrently with payments
   required under the equipment  purchase  contracts.  The Company does not hold
   foreign exchange forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes. Gains
   and  losses  are  deferred  and  accounted  for as  part  of  the  underlying
   transactions.  At December 31, 1997,  foreign exchange forward contracts were
   not significant.


NOTE C - CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

Construction in progress consists primarily of payments made for construction of
manufacturing equipment and facilities expansion.  Total cost of this project is
expected to be  approximately  $54,000,000  and is expected to be  completed  in
various stages through 1999.  Total  outstanding  commitments of this project at
December 31, 1997 are approximately  $40,000,000.  Construction of equipment and
facilities totaling  approximately  $4,900,000 and $3,000,000 were completed and
placed in service during 1996 and 1997, respectively.

NOTE E - NOTES PAYABLE
   The Company  has  entered  into an amended  and  restated  loan and  security
   agreement ("the loan agreement") with a bank. The loan agreement provides for
   a revolving  credit  facility of up to  $15,000,000.  Interest on outstanding
   borrowings is payable monthly at the prime rate or at a LIBOR based rate.

   The LIBOR  based  rate  ranges  from LIBOR plus 1.5% to LIBOR plus 2%, and is
   determined by the Company's debt service  coverage  ratio,  as defined in the
   loan agreement.  At December 31, 1996,  $3,458,436 was outstanding  under the
   revolving  credit  facility  with an  effective  interest  rate of 8.25%.  No
   amounts were outstanding under the revolving credit agreement at December 31,
   1997.

   Outstanding  borrowings  under  the  loan  agreement  are  collateralized  by
   substantially all of the Company's  assets.  Provisions of the loan agreement
   limit the  incurrence  of  additional  debt and  require the  maintenance  of
   certain  minimum  financial  ratios,  among other things.  As of December 31,
   1997,  the  Company  was in  compliance  with  the  provisions  of  the  loan
   agreement.

NOTE G - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS - Continued

   The Company  follows the  practice of  recording  amounts  received  upon the
   exercise of certain options by crediting common stock and additional  paid-in
   capital. No charges are reflected in the statements of operations as a result
   of the grant or  exercise  of  options.  The  Company  realizes an income tax
   benefit from the exercise or early disposition of certain stock options. This
   benefit  results in a reduction  to income  taxes  payable and an increase in
   additional paid-in capital.

   The Company  uses the  intrinsic  value  method in  accounting  for its stock
   option  plans.  In  applying  this  method,  no  compensation  cost  has been
   recognized.  Had compensation  cost for the Company's stock option plans been
   determined  based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those
   plans,  the Company's net earnings and earnings per share would have resulted
   in the pro forma amounts indicated below:

</TABLE>

   For purposes of the pro forma  amounts  above,  the fair value of each option
   grant  was   estimated   on  the  date  of  grant  using  the   Black-Scholes
   options-pricing  model with the following  weighted-average  assumptions used
   for grants in 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively;  expected volatility of 70%,
   70% and 68%, risk-free interest rates of 5.86%, 6.33% and 5.87%; and expected
   lives of 5.5 years, 7 years and 3.7 years.

   Warrants

   40,000 warrants were exercised during 1996 and 20,000 warrants were exercised
   during 1997,  resulting in proceeds to the Company of $300,000 and  $150,000,
   respectively.  At December 31, 1997, there are outstanding  warrants covering
   40,000 shares of common  stock.  The warrants are  exercisable  at a price of
   $7.50 per share and expire in May 1999.

NOTE L - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

   The  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (FASB) has issued the  following
   Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS):

   SFAS 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which is effective for fiscal years
   beginning  after  December 15, 1997.  SFAS 130 requires  companies to include
   details  about  comprehensive  income that arise  during a reporting  period.
   Comprehensive income includes revenue, expenses, gains and losses that bypass
   the income  statement  and are reported  directly in a separate  component of
   equity.

   SFAS 131, Disclosure about Segments of An Enterprise and Related Information,
   which is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after December 15, 1997. SFAS
   131 requires  companies  to report  information  about an entity's  different
   types of business activities and the different economic environments in which
   it operates, referred to as operating segments.

   Management  does not expect the  adoption  of these new  standards  to have a
   material  impact on the Company's results of operations or financial
   condition.
