Notes to consolidated financial statements

1    BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Rakepoll Holding B.V. (Rakepoll) is owned 97.5% by Rakepoll Finance N.V. and
2.5% by O.B. Norden Holding N.V. Rakepoll owns 99.65% of SICOR Societa Italiana
Corticosteriodi S.p.A. (SICOR). SICOR, established in 1983 in Rho, Italy is a
major Italian producer of bulk "active ingredients" which are sold to large and
medium size pharmaceutical companies throughout the world. During January 1995,
SICOR acquired 70% of Zanoni Pharmaceuticals S.p.A. (Zanoni), a manufacturer of
anti-tumor drugs. Proforma disclosures required under APB No. 16 have not been
presented as the results of operations for Zanoni have been included in the
consolidated statement of operations since January 1995. The disclosures for the
preceding period have been omitted as the amounts were not significant. In June
1996, SICOR acquired the remaining 30% of Zanoni.  The transaction generated an
excess cost of approximately $234,000 allocated to property, plant and
equipment.

During 1995, the majority shareholder of Rakepoll indirectly owned 80% of
Sintesis, Lerma S.A. de C.V. (Lerma) located in Mexico.  The remaining 20% was
owned by two individuals closely related to the Company.  Lerma was acquired in
1994 and currently manufactures pharmaceutical and chemical products for export
to SICOR.  The net assets of Lerma at the date of acquisition were not
significant.  As of September 26, 1996, Rakepoll acquired direct ownership of
99.9% of Lerma.

Since 1989, the majority shareholder of Rakepoll indirectly controlled 51% of
Lemery, S.A. de C.V. (Lemery), Lemery Desarrollo y Control, S.A. de C.V.
(Ledeco) and Immobiliaria Lemery S.A. de C.V. (Immobiliaria). The remaining
interest in these companies (the Lemery group) was controlled by the same
individuals owning the minority interest in Lerma.  These companies are all
located in Mexico. Lemery is the operating company and Ledeco and Immobiliaria
provide certain administrative services to Lemery.  As of October 1, 1996,
Rakepoll acquired direct ownership of 99.9% of the Lemery group.

As it was determined that the aforementioned companies were under common control
by the majority shareholder of Rakepoll, the accompanying financial statements
with respect to years prior to 1996 have been prepared by combining the
consolidated financial statements of Rakepoll with the financial statements of
Lerma and the combined financial statements of the Lemery group.  Following the
acquisition of the direct interests in Lerma and the Lemery group, the financial
statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis in 1996.  The net assets
of Lerma and the Lemery group have been included in the consolidated financial
statements at historical values considering the existence of common control of
these entities.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The consolidated
entities are hereafter referred to as "the Company".

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles inherently requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

B.   PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND COMBINATION

The consolidated financial statements of Rakepoll include the accounts of SICOR,
Lerma and the Lemery group. All significant intercompany transactions and
balances between the entities have been eliminated. Unrealized intercompany
profits in inventories have been eliminated and cost of sales have been adjusted
for the effects of such eliminations.

C.   FOREIGN CURRENCIES

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional
currencies are translated to functional currencies at rates of exchange
prevailing on the balance sheet date. Exchange gains and losses are recorded in
operating results in the period in which they arise.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in United States
dollars. Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. dollar companies are converted to
U.S. dollars at rates of exchange prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income
and expense items of such companies are translated at the average exchange rates
for the year. The resulting translation differences are included in the
cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of shareholders' equity.
The functional currency of SICOR is the Italian lire.  The functional currency
of Lerma is the U.S. dollar.  The functional currency of Lemery has been the
Mexican peso.  In accordance with SFAS 52, the net assets of Lemery will be
remeasured to the U.S. dollar during the first quarter of 1997 as a result of a
hyper-inflationary economy in Mexico.

D.   FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Off-balance sheet financial instruments such as foreign currency forward
contracts are valued at market prices with the resulting gains and losses
recognized in the statement of operations as foreign currency exchange results.
The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company values financial instruments as required by FAS No. 107, Disclosures
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, The carrying amounts of cash,
accounts receivable, short-term debt and long-term, variable-rate debt
approximate fair value. The Company estimates that the carrying value of long-
term fixed rate debt approximates fair value based on the Company's estimated
current borrowing rates for debt with similar maturities.

E.   RECEIVABLES

Receivables are stated at cost, less a provision for doubtful accounts.

F.   INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the
last-in first-out (LIFO) basis for the Company's Italian subsidiaries. Cost is
determined on a first-in first out (FIFO) basis for inventories of Lerma and the
Lemery group.


G.   PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are valued at historical cost less straight-line
depreciation based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. All expenditures
for additions and improvements that extend the life of the assets are
capitalized.

The applicable rates of depreciation are as follows:

Buildings and building improvements                                          5%
Machinery and equipment                                             9% to 17.5%
Office furniture and equipment                                       10% to 30%
Motor vehicles                                                       20% to 25%

Normal maintenance and repair costs for property, plant and equipment are
charged to expense as incurred.

H.   RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE

Expenditures relating to the development of new products and processes,
including significant improvements and refinement to existing products are
expensed as incurred.

                                     -10-

I.   INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes is computed on the pretax income (loss) of the
entities included in the consolidated financial statements based on the tax law
currently applicable in each taxing jurisdiction. Deferred taxes result from the
future tax consequences associated with temporary differences between the
amounts of assets and liabilities recorded for financial reporting purposes and
those measured under applicable tax laws.

J.   IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company routinely assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by
determining whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through
undiscounted future operating cash flows before interest.  If impairment is
indicated, the Company will measure the amount of such impairment by comparing
the carrying value of the asset to the present value of the expected future cash
flows associated with the use of the asset.

K.   CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Lemery's three largest customers are governmental agencies in Mexico and account
for approximately 65% of Lemery's total revenues. Trade receivables related to
the customers in Mexico as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 were $ 20,482,000 and $
1,069,000, respectively.

6    OTHER ASSETS, NET

Other assets include the net book value of a payment of $ 1,035,000 for certain
proprietary technology rights which were acquired by SICOR from a third party in
February 1995. Pursuant to the original agreement, $ 500,000 of the purchase
price was to be paid during 1995 and the remaining $ 535,000 was to be paid in
1996. Based on an oral agreement between Company and the third party, only
$250,000 was paid during 1995. The remaining liability has been included in
other current liabilities and is payable during 1997. The deferred charge is
being amortized to cost of sales on a straight-line basis over an estimated
useful life of 5 years.

The agreement requires SICOR to pay a royalty on the net sales of the products
manufactured using the technology acquired under the agreement. The royalty is
to be paid for a period of six years from the date of SICOR's first commercial
sale of such products. The royalty will be calculated as 5% of net sales up to $
20,000,000, 4% of net sales above $ 20,000,000 up to $ 40,000,000 and 3% of net
sales above $ 40,000,000 with a minimum royalty of $ 1,500,000 paid during the
six year period. SICOR commenced the commercial sale of such products during
1995 and for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 recorded approximately $
47,000 and $ 17,000, respectively, of royalty expense under the terms of the
agreement. 

The other principal items included in this balance are VAT reimbursements
receivable from governmental authorities that are not expected to be collected
within one year.

7    INCOME TAXES

At December 31, 1996, the Company's Mexican entities have net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $ 2,000,000 which are available to offset future
taxable income, if any, through 2006. Additionally, the Mexican companies have
recoverable asset tax carryforwards at December 31, 1996 of $ 231,000 expiring
at various dates through 2005.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is
dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in
which those temporary differences become deductible. After consideration of the
estimated future taxable income generated in each respective tax jurisdiction,
management was unable to concluded that it is more likely than not that certain
deferred tax assets will be realized and, accordingly, has established a
valuation allowance of $ 548,000, $ 1,871,000 and $ 176,000 for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 respectively.

It is the Company's intention to reinvest undistributed earnings of its
subsidiaries; accordingly, no deferred income taxes have been provided thereon.

</TABLE>

The Company's Italian subsidiaries maintain credit line arrangements with
several banks whereby all receivables denominated in foreign currencies,
principally U.S. dollars, are pledged to the banks in return for short-term
borrowings in Italian lire under the lines of credit. These transactions
effectively eliminate the Company's foreign exchange risk associated with these
transactions. The Company retains all credit risk with respect to the
receivables.  Consequently, both the receivables and related borrowings are
included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The weighted average interest rates on these borrowings is approximately 6.2%
and 6.9% at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

The short-term borrowings from banks, repayable in U.S. dollars and Italian
lire, are unsecured. The terms of the borrowings range from three to six months.
The weighted average fixed interest rate on these borrowings is approximately
7.4% and 7.2% for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

The short-term borrowings from banks, repayable in Mexican pesos, are unsecured.
The fixed interest rate on these borrowings is approximately 37% and 65% for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

16   FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE GAINS (LOSSES)

During the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company entered
into foreign currency forward contracts, primarily to sell U.S. dollars. These
forward contracts do not qualify as hedges for financial reporting purposes;
therefore, gains and losses on these contracts are included in operations. As of
December 31, 1996, there were no contracts outstanding. For the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, $ 1,366,000, $ 351,000 and $ 542,000 of net
gains on these contracts are included in foreign currency exchange gains
(losses) in the consolidated statements of operations.

17   RELATED PARTY

The Company has agency and distribution agreements with Alco Chemicals (Alco).
In September 1996, the majority shareholder of Alco acquired a majority of the
outstanding shares of Rakepoll Finance N.V., the Company's parent company.

During 1996 the Company sold to Alco approximately $ 13,992,000 and the
outstanding receivable at year end amounts to $ 5,155,000. Collection terms are
set at 90 days, which corresponds to normal trade conditions.

Under the terms of these agreements, Alco has received commissions of 3.5% for
the year ended December 31, 1996, acting as an agent for SICOR's sales related
to non-Italian customers. The agency agreement also stipulates that Alco
guarantees minimum sales of $ 20,000 of SICOR's products on a yearly basis
through December 31, 1997. The agreement continues beyond December 31, 1997, on
a year to year basis unless notice is provided by either party. In the event the
minimum sales level is not met by Alco, the agreement can be terminated by
SICOR. The agreement permits SICOR to sell its products directly or through
other agents. If SICOR pays commissions less than the contractual commission
percentage to such agents, SICOR must pay the differential between the
commissions paid and the contractual percentage to Alco.

SICOR also had agreements with Alco which granted exclusive distribution rights
on three products in certain countries expiring at various dates through 2005.
These agreements have been cancelled effective January 1, 1997. These agreements
required that Alco purchase minimum quantities of such products each year during
the term of the contracts. The agreements also fixed the price at which the
products must be purchased from SICOR.

Commissions paid to Alco were $ 995,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

The residual balance of $ 1,482,000, due to Alco for commissions, is included in
Trade accounts payable -related party. This caption also includes a residual
balance of $ 481,000 for costs recharged by Alco mainly in relation to returns
of goods and amounting for the year 1996 to $ 957,000.

18   RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ARRANGEMENTS

During July 1994, SICOR entered into a research and development arrangement with
ZETESIS S.p.A. to develop an anti-tumor drug. The arrangement is renewable at
SICOR's discretion every two years. Under the terms of the contract, SICOR is
obligated to fund the scientific and clinical research related to the drug.
During each two year period, SICOR is obligated to fund a maximum of Lit.
2,000,000,000 (U.S. $ 1,262,000) for scientific research. There is no maximum
obligation for clinical research funding. Upon successful patent application and
regulatory approval, SICOR will receive the exclusive manufacturing and
commercial rights to the product and will pay a 5% royalty on commercial sales
to ZETESIS S.p.A.. For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
approximately $ 2,990,000, $ 1,934,000 and $ 1,079,000, respectively, has been
recorded as research and development expense in relation to this contract.

Beginning in 1994, SICOR entered into a long-term consulting contract with the
inventor of an anti-tumor drug. The contract expires upon termination of the
aforementioned development arrangement or commercial sale of the drug. SICOR is
obligated to pay Lit. 500,000,000 (U.S. $ 307,000) plus certain expenses each
year for consulting services under the contract. If commercial sales of the drug
are realized, SICOR will be obligated to pay royalties in various percentages on
the sales and any subsequent licensing of the product. For the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, approximately $ 350,000, $ 322,000 and $
154,000, respectively, has recorded to research and development expense in
relation to this contract.

19   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

During 1995, the Company received claims from certain of its customers in
connection with shipments of contaminated product. While no lawsuits have been
filed against the Company with respect to this matter, the Company has recorded
a provision of approximately $ 1.6 and $ 2.7 million, respectively, during the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 which represents management's best
estimate of product rework costs, attorney's costs and other settlement costs.
Actual costs to be incurred in relation to the ultimate settlement may vary from
the amount estimated.

Independent auditor's report


To the Board of

Directors of Rakepoll Holding B.V.



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rakepoll Holding
B.V. and subsidiaries ("Rakepoll") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1996.
These consolidated financials statements are the responsibility of Rakepoll's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in the United States of America. 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 overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Rakepoll as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1996, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America.

     The following unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed balance sheet as
of December 31, 1996 and the unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 give effect to the
Stock Exchange as of January 1, 1996 for the pro forma consolidated condensed

     The pro forma consolidated condensed financial statements are based on

giving effect to the Stock Exchange applying the purchase method of accounting
and the assumptions and adjustments as discussed in the accompanying notes to
the pro forma consolidated condensed financial statements. These pro forma
consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by the management
of Gensia Sicor based upon the audited consolidated financial statements of

should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes
thereto and narrative sections incorporated by reference herein. The pro forma

what actual results of operations would have been for the periods had the Stock
Exchange occurred on the dates indicated and do not purport to indicate the

1.   HISTORICAL

          The historical balances represent the financial position and results
     of operations for each company and were derived from the respective
     financial statements for the indicated periods.

2.   PRO FORMA

          Pursuant to the Stock Exchange, Gensia Sicor acquired all of the 
     outstanding shares of Rakepoll Holding, and Rakepoll Holding became a
     wholly owned subsidiary of Gensia Sicor. The approximate purchase price for
     Rakepoll Holding of $157,715,000 consists of the following: (i) the
     $146,615,000 market value of shares of Gensia Sicor Common Stock which has
     been issued to Rakepoll Finance N.V. (29,500,000 shares of Gensia Sicor
     Common Stock at $4.97 per share), (ii) cash payment of $100,000 to Rakepoll
     Finance N.V., and (iii) estimated transaction costs of $11,000,000. Gensia
     is in the process of completing the valuation of the tangible and
     intangible assets, as well as in-process technology, in order to properly
     allocate the estimated total purchase price to all of the assets acquired
     and liabilities assumed as required by Accounting Principles Board Opinion
     No. 16. Upon preliminary valuation analysis, allocation of the total
     Acquisition cost is as follows:

         Market value of Gensia Common Stock                 $ 146,615
         Cash                                                      100

          The final purchase price will depend upon Rakepoll Holding's closing 
     balance sheet and the completion of the valuation of tangible and
     intangible assets including in-process technology. Accordingly, goodwill
     and related amortization reflected in the pro forma financial statements
     may change based on the final accounting.

          The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed balance sheet has been
     prepared to reflect the Stock Exchange as if it occurred on December 31,
     1996. The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed statement of
     operations has been prepared to reflect the Stock Exchange as if it
     occurred on January 1, 1996. The acquisition has been accounted for under
     the purchase method of accounting. The following pro forma adjustments are
     reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial
     statements.


          PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED BALANCE SHEET

          (a)  Conversion of Rakepoll Holding affiliate debt as of December 31,
               1996 into Rakepoll equity as specified in the Stock Exchange
               Agreement.

          (b)  Elimination of Rakepoll Holding's equity accounts as required by
               generally accepted accounting principles.

          (c)  Issuance of 29,500,000 shares of Gensia Sicor Common Stock at a
               fair market value of $4.97 per share and the payment of $100,000
               to Rakepoll Holding shareholders.

          (d)  Accrual of certain costs associated with the Stock Exchange.

          (e)  Adjustment of Rakepoll Holding's assets and liabilities to the
               estimated fair values thereof at the date of the Stock Exchange.
               This amount is only an estimate and may change upon completion of
               the valuation of such assets and will depend on the closing 
               balance sheet of Rakepoll Holding.

          (f)  Write-off of the portion of the purchase price allocated to
               estimated acquired in-process technology of Rakepoll Holding,
               which will be charged to the statement of operations upon
               consummation of the Stock Exchange. This amount is not included
               in the Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations
               as it represents a nonrecurring charge. 

          (g)  Recognition of goodwill for the excess of the estimated purchase
               price over the estimated net fair value of assets acquired and
               liabilities assumed. This amount is only an estimate and may
               change upon completion of the valuation of tangible and
               intangible assets including in-process technology, as well as
               other factors.

          PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS

          (a)  Elimination of intercompany product sales and cost of sales
               between Gensia and Rakepoll Holding.

                                      -27-

          (b)  Reduction in interest expense upon the conversion of Rakepoll
               Holding affiliate debt into Rakepoll Holding equity as specified
               in the Stock Exchange Agreement. The weighted average annual
               interest rate for the affiliate debt is approximately 6.1%.

          (c)  Adjustment to research and development expenses for cost
               reductions required by the Stock Exchange Agreement and
               amendments thereto. Under such agreement, as amended, Gensia must
               either reduce its research activities to the level at which third
               party funding for such activities has been obtained or terminate
               any such unfunded research activities no later than April 22,
               1997. The adjusted amount reflects spending on research
               activities at the level for which funding has already been
               obtained and does not assume any additional funding for research
               activities.

          (d)  Increase in depreciation resulting from the estimated adjustment
               of property and equipment to the estimated net fair value,
               assuming a useful life of ten years.

          (e)  Amortization over 5 to 17 years for identified intangibles and
               over 30 years for goodwill resulting from the excess purchase
               price over the estimated net fair value of assets acquired and
               liabilities assumed. This amount is only an estimate and may
               change upon final determination of the identified intangibles and
               goodwill amounts and amortization periods.

          (f)  Adjustment to reflect estimated increase in general and
               administrative expenses for operations of a multinational public
               company.

          (g)  The net loss per share and the shares used in computing the net
               loss per share are based upon the historical weighted average
               common shares outstanding for the respective periods, adjusted to
               reflect the issuance of 29,500,000 shares of Gensia Common Stock
               to Rakepoll Holding stockholders as of January 1, 1996.
