                  NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                     AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
                           (Unaudited)



1. Cash Equivalents and Investments

     Investments consist primarily of funds invested in money
market instruments, commercial paper and U.S. government and
French government treasury bills.  Investments with maturities
within one year are classified as short-term investments. 
Investments in securities with original maturities of three
months or less are considered cash equivalents.  Cash of $4.1
million is pledged on a reducing basis over approximately one
year as security to a bank which guaranteed the principal and
interest of a note issued in an acquisition.
     
     Investments that are classified as available-for-sale
securities are carried at fair market value.  Unrealized holding
gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported as a net
amount in a separate component of shareholders' equity until
realized. 


2. Intangible Assets

     The intangible assets comprise software and technology
acquired, the estimated value of contractual positions, and the
excess of the purchase price of acquisitions over the fair market
value of the tangible assets acquired.  The intangible assets are
being amortized on a straight line method over periods of two to
10 years, with a weighted average amortization period of
approximately eight years.


3. Net Loss Per Share

     Net loss per share is determined using the weighted-average

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
          Condition and Results of Operations.
                    
Results of Operations
     
     Revenues increased 53% and 51% to $4.0 million and $12.6
million for the three months and nine months, respectively, ended
September 30, 1995 as compared to $2.6 million and $8.3 million
for the corresponding periods of 1994.  Product sales increased
$1.2 million and $3.5 million in the third quarter and first nine
months, respectively, of 1995, due primarily to sales
attributable to the Company's European operations, acquired in
September 1994.  In the third quarter and first nine months of
1995, revenues also included $0.3 million and $0.9 million,
respectively, in grants and contracts revenue.  The underlying
grants and contracts are scheduled to terminate in 1996 and 1997.

     Gross profit as a percentage of product sales increased to
52% in the third quarter and first nine months of 1995 from 40%
and 44%, respectively, in the corresponding periods of 1994.  The
increases were due primarily to more favorable margins on sales
in Europe and to production efficiencies achieved in the United
States.

     Amortization of intangibles of $0.3 million and $1.0 million
in the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of 1995
is to amortize certain intangible assets, primarily assets
acquired in connection with the acquisition of Appligene.  Such 
amortization will continue at that approximate rate for the next
several years.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
$0.8 million and $3.9 million for the third quarter and first
nine months, respectively, of 1995 from the corresponding periods
of 1994.  Approximately $0.7 million and $2.3 million of the
increases are due to expenses associated with the Company's
marketing and administrative effort in Europe.  The remainder of
the increase in the first nine months of 1995 is primarily due to
increased expenses associated with the expansion of the Company's
marketing and field sales force in North America, beginning in
the second half of 1994, and to administrative expenses incurred
by OncorPharm.

     Research and development expenses increased by $0.3 million
and $0.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months,
respectively, of 1995 from the corresponding periods of 1994, due
principally to research and development expenses incurred by the
European operations and by OncorPharm.

     In the third quarter and first nine months of 1994, there
were $1.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively, in
non-recurring charges to write off acquired research and
development projects in process.  


     Other expense decreased by $0.5 million and $0.7 million for
the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of 1995
from the corresponding periods of 1994 due primarily to the
Company's reduced ownership interest in OncorMed in October 1994.

     Net losses decreased to $4.3 million ($0.21 per share) and
$11.7 million ($0.56 per share) in the third quarter and the
first nine months of 1995 from $5.5 million ($0.28 per share) and
$13.6 million ($0.71 per share), respectively, in the
corresponding periods of 1994.  These decreases were due
principally to the factors discussed above.

Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition

     The Company's future business, results of operations and
financial condition are dependent on the Company's ability to
successfully develop, manufacture and market its gene-based test
systems and other products.  Inherent in this process are a
number of factors that the Company must successfully manage in
order to be successful.

     Risk Associated with HER-2/neu Gene-Based Test System.  The
Company anticipates that an FDA panel review for its HER-2/neu
gene-based test system will take place on November 30, 1995.  No
assurance can be given as to the timing of such panel review,
that additional testing or data will not be required following
such panel review or that such panel review will be favorable.  A
favorable panel review is only a recommendation for FDA approval. 
No assurance can be given that the Company will obtain final FDA
approval for its HER-2/neu gene-based test system or the timing
of such approval if the panel recommendation is favorable.  An
adverse panel review decision or the failure to obtain FDA
approval for its HER-2/neu gene-based test system on a timely
basis, or at all, would have a material and adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.  In the event that the Company receives final FDA
approval for its HER-2/neu gene-based test system, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be capable of manufacturing
the test system in commercial quantities at reasonable costs or
marketing the product successfully, that the test system will be
accepted by the medical diagnostic community, or that the market
demand for the test system will be sufficient to allow profitable
sales.

     No assurance of Regulatory Approvals; Government Regulation. 
The Company's products are subject to extensive regulation by
governmental authorities in the United States and other
countries. Although the Company may sell its products in the
United States for research purposes only, it may not sell such
products in the United States for diagnostic purposes until it
receives approval from the FDA.  The Company has obtained FDA
approval for one of these products for sale for diagnostic
purposes and is currently pursuing FDA approval of certain
existing products and expects to pursue FDA approval of several
additional products under development.  There can be no assurance
that the Company will receive regulatory approval for any of its
products or, even if it does receive regulatory approval for any
of its products or, even if it does receive regulatory approval
for a particular product, that the Company will ever recover its
costs in connection with obtaining such approval.  The failure of
the Company to receive requisite approval, or significant delays
in obtaining such approval, could have a material and adverse
effect on the business, financial condition and results of
operations of the Company.  Sales of the Company's products
outside the United States are also subject to extensive
regulatory requirements, which vary widely from country to
country.  The foreign regulatory approval process includes all of
the risks associated with FDA approval set forth above. 
Additionally, the Company is or may become subject to  various
federal, state and local laws, regulations and recommendations
relating to safe working conditions, laboratory and manufacturing
practices, the experimental use of animals and the use and
disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances,
including radioactive compounds and infectious disease agents,
used in connection with the Company's research and development
work.  The Company is unable to predict the extent of future
government regulation.

     Patents and Proprietary Rights.  The Company's success will
depend in large part on its, or its licensors' ability to obtain
patents, defend its patents, maintain trade secrets and operate
without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others, both in
the United States and in foreign countries.  Litigation and
patent interference proceedings, which could result in
substantial cost to the Company, may be necessary to enforce the
Company's patent and license rights or to determine the scope and
validity of others' proprietary rights.  An adverse outcome could
subject the Company to significant liabilities to third parties
and require the company to license disputed rights from third
parties or cease using the technology.

     The University of California and its licensee Vysis, Inc.
("Vysis") filed suit against Oncor on September 5, 1995 for
infringement of U.S. Patent No. 5,447,841 entitled "Methods and
Composition for Chromosome Specific Staining" which issued on
that same date.  The patent relates to a method of performing in
situ hybridization using a blocking nucleic acid that is
complementary to repetitive sequences.  The Company's products
that may utilize this method comprise less than 10% of the
Company's sales.  A failure to successfully defend against, or
settle this suit may result in damages being assessed against the
Company and an injunction against sales of some of the Company's
probes.  The University of California and Vysis have offered to
grant the Company a non-exclusive license, which is under
consideration by the Company.

     The Company has licensed rights to inventions disclosed in
United States and foreign patent applications relating to methods
and probes for detecting the presence of the Fragile X syndrome. 
The Company believes that its licensors are original inventors
and are entitled to patent protection in the United States, but
the Company is aware that certain third parties also have filed
patent applications in the United States and abroad and claim to
be entitled to patents related to this technology.  The Company
has initiated an interference proceeding with these third parties
in the PTO to resolve which party is entitled to a United States
patent, if any.  The application licensed by the Company is
senior in the interference.  An unfavorable decision in such a
proceeding could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition.

     The Company currently has certain licenses from third
parties and in the future may require additional licenses from
other parties to develop, manufacture and market commercially
viable products effectively.  There can be no assurance that such
licenses will be obtainable on commercially reasonable terms, if
at all, that the patents underlying such licenses will be valid
and enforceable or that the proprietary nature of the patented
technology underlying such licenses will remain proprietary.

     The Company relies substantially on certain technologies,
trade secrets and know-how that are not patentable or proprietary
and are therefore available to the company's competitors. 
Although the Company has taken steps to protect its unpatented
trade secrets and know-how, in part through the use of
confidentiality agreements with its employees, consultants and
certain of its contractors, there can be no assurance that these
agreements will not be breached, that the Company would have
adequate remedies for any breach, or that the Company's trade
secrets will not otherwise become known or be independently
developed or discovered by competitors.

     Uncertainties Relating to Product Development.  The
Company's products may be sold only for research purposes until
approved by the FDA. The Company's existing products that have
not been approved by the FDA as well as the development-stage
products will require substantial additional investment,
laboratory development, clinical testing and FDA approval prior
to their commercialization for diagnostic purposes.  There can be
no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing
such existing or future products, that such products will prove
to be efficacious in clinical trials, that required regulatory
approvals can be obtained for such products, that such products,
if developed and approved, will be capable of being manufactured
in commercial quantities at reasonable costs, will be marketed
successfully or will be accepted by the medical diagnostic
community, or that market demand for such products will be
sufficient to allow profitable operations.

     International Sales and Foreign Exchange Risk.  The Company
anticipates that a significant amount of its sales will take
place in European countries and likely will be denominated in
currencies other than the U.S. dollar.  These sales may be
adversely affected by changing economic conditions in foreign
countries, by fluctuations in currency exchange rates and by
certain risks inherent in conducting foreign operations.

     Competition and Technological Change.  The diagnostic and
biotechnology industries are subject to intense competition and
rapid and significant technological change.  Many of the
Company's competitors have substantially greater financial and
technical resources and production and marketing capabilities,
and experience in conducting clinical trials and obtaining
regulatory approvals than the Company.  There can be no assurance
that these competitors will not succeed in developing
technologies and products that are more effective, easier to use
or less expensive than those that have been or are being
developed by the Company or that would render the Company's
technology and products obsolete and noncompetitive. The Company
also competes with various companies in acquiring technology from
academic institutions, government agencies and research
organizations.

     Investment in OncorMed and OncorPharm.  The shares of Common
Stock of both OncorMed and OncorPharm held by the Company are not
currently freely tradeable and no public market exists for the
Common Stock of OncorPharm.  Therefore, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to realize the economic benefit of
its investment or the timing of such realization.  The value of
the Company's investment in OncorMed represents a significant
portion of the total assets of the Company and such value
fluctuates with the market price of OncorMed's common stock and
any event that as a material and adverse effect on the market
price of the common stock of OncorMed will have a material and
adverse effect on the value of the Company's investment in
OncorMed.  Although the Company's Chief Executive Officer is a
Director of both OncorMed and OncorPharm, and the Company is a
significant stockholder in OncorMed, the Company does not control
the day-to-day operations and management of either company and,
therefore, has little direct control over their operations and
financial results.  Both OncorMed and OncorPharm will require
additional financing in the future.  The Company has no
commitment to, and does not currently intend to, provide such
financing.  However, the Company may provide such financing in
the future.  The failure of either OncorMed or OncorPharm to
obtain any required financing on acceptable terms could have a
material and adverse effect on the value of the Company's
investment in OncorMed and OncorPharm.

     Other Factors.  Other factors that may affect the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations, include
the Company's limited manufacturing, marketing and distribution
experience, the level and availability of government funding, the
Company's ability to attract and retain key personnel, potential
health care reform measures and the availability of third-party
reimbursement, potential product liability claims, and
environmental risks.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The following table sets forth the cash and liquid
investments position of the Company and the most significant
sources and uses of cash in the first nine months of 1995 (in
millions):

                                               First Nine Months 
                                                     1995        
Cash and liquid investments at beginning
of period                                            $23.3

Loss from operations, less noncash charges            (7.9)

Net investment in working capital                     (2.8)
 
Purchases of equipment and leasehold
improvements                                          (3.0)

Principal portion of debt service                     (2.9)

Private offering of preferred stock of 
a subsidiary                                           3.0

Proceeds from exercise of options,
long-term borrowings and other                         1.1 

Cash and liquid investments at               
September 30, 1995                                   $10.8 

     The cash loss from operations is discussed above. 

     The net investment in working capital in the first nine
months of 1995 relates to (i) inventory stocking to achieve
production efficiencies, (ii) establishment of base stocks of
Appligene products in the United States and of Oncor products in
Europe and (iii) establishment of base stocks of other new
product lines.  Such investment is not expected to continue at
this rate.  

     Purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements were
primarily for (i) construction of the OncorPharm laboratory, 
(ii) leasehold improvements made at the Company's European
facility and (iii) replacement of communication and data
processing systems.  The Company expects the level of capital
purchases to continue at a reduced rate through the remainder of
1995 and 1996.  
     
     The principal portion of debt service relates principally to
debt incurred in connection with acquisitions made in 1994 and is
expected to continue at a reduced rate through the third quarter
of 1996.

     Net losses of $0.3 million and $1.3 million in the third
quarter and first nine months, respectively, of 1995 relating to
the activities of OncorPharm contributed to the loss from
operations.  This subsidiary completed a private placement of
preferred stock in April 1995, securing additional funding of
approximately $3.0 million.  

     As derived from the preceding table, net cash used by the
Company for operating activities has averaged $0.9 million per
month in the first nine months of 1995 and has made significant
additional expenditures in the ordinary course of business.  It
has approximately $10.8 million in cash and liquid investments as
of September 30, 1995.  Although the Company believes that such
cash losses may be reduced in 1996, there can be no assurance of
that result.  Currently, the Company is exploring potential
options to secure additional cash funding.  These potential
options include (i) public or private financing by the Company or
its subsidiaries, (ii) strategic alliances or collaborations with
certain industry partners and (iii) the liquidation of certain of
its non-operating assets.  The terms of such financings will have
the effect of diluting or otherwise adversely affecting the
holdings or the rights of existing stockholders of the Company. 
There can be no assurance that any of the aforementioned
financing efforts will be successful or that adequate funding
will be available when needed or on terms acceptable to the
Company.  If such efforts are unsuccessful, the Company may be
required to delay or eliminate expenditures for certain of its
products or to lease to third parties the rights to commercialize
products or technologies that the Company would otherwise seek to
develop itself.
