NOTE 5. INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic income (loss) per common share excludes dilution and is computed
by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted income (loss) per common share
reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings.
For the periods presented the effect of dilutive stock options is not
significant and the effect of the assumed conversion of convertible subordinated
notes would be antidilutive. Therefore, diluted income (loss) per share is not
materially different from basic income (loss) per common share.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contains statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
These statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current
expectations of the Company, its directors or its officers with respect to,
among other things: (i) whether the Company will receive, and the timing of,
regulatory approvals or clearances to market the ATRIDOX(TM) product and any
other potential products, (ii) the results of current and future clinical
trials, and (iii) the time and expenses associated with the regulatory approval
process for products. The success of the Company's business operations is in
turn dependent on factors such as the receipt and timing of regulatory approvals
or clearances for potential products, the effectiveness of the Company's
marketing strategies to market its current and any future products, the
Company's ability to manufacture products on a commercial scale, the appeal of
the Company`s mix of products, the Company's success at entering into and
collaborating with others to conduct effective strategic alliances and joint
ventures, general competitive conditions within the biotechnology and drug
delivery industry and general economic conditions. Forward-looking statements
are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and
actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements as a result of various factors.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 were
approximately $8,903,000 compared to approximately $1,142,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily due to the receipt of a
$7,000,000 milestone payment from Block Drug Company ("Block") during the
quarter. Additionally, interest income earned increased significantly due to the
increase in principal investments related to the proceeds from issuance of 7%
Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2004 (the "Convertible Notes").
The Company had sales of approximately $848,000 during the three months
ended June 30, 1998 compared to approximately $544,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997. The 56% increase in sales was primarily the result of the
addition of sales for the Heska Periodontal Product launched in the fourth
quarter of 1997.
Contract revenue represents revenue the Company received from grants
and from unaffiliated third parties for performing contract research and
development activities utilizing the ATRIGEL(R) system, and was approximately
$120,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to approximately
$237,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 49% decrease.
The decrease was primarily due to the completion of several grants during 1997.
Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was
approximately $929,000 compared to approximately $356,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997, representing a 161% increase. Interest income increased due
to additions in principal investments as a result of the proceeds from the
$50,000,000 convertible subordinated note offering completed in the fourth
quarter 1997. In addition, a $7,000,000 milestone payment was received under the
Block Agreement. The majority of the funds were invested in U.S. government bond
funds, long-term U.S. government and government agency investments. The
remaining cash and cash equivalents were invested in interest bearing accounts
to fund the Company's short-term operations.
Research and development expenses - ATRIDOX(TM) product for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 were approximately $1,077,000 compared to
approximately $1,447,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing
a 26% decrease. The decrease was the result of completion of clinical studies
related to the ATRIDOX(TM) product in the prior year.
Other research and development expenses for the three months ended June
30, 1998 were approximately $1,963,000 compared to approximately $1,719,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 14% increase. The increase
was primarily as a result of increased expenses associated with new research
project opportunities.

<PAGE> 9
Administrative and marketing expenses increased to approximately
$1,648,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from approximately $527,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 213% increase. The
primary reason for this increase was interest expense of $921,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1998, compared to $ -0- interest expense for the three
months ended June 30, 1997, incurred as a result of the Convertible Notes.
The Company recorded net income of approximately $3,770,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 compared to a net loss of approximately $2,988,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 226% increase. The increase was
primarily due to the receipt of a $7,000,000 milestone payment by Block during
the quarter and increased interest income.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,1997
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were approximately
$10,868,000 compared to approximately $8,949,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1997, representing a 21% increase. The increase was primarily due to
increased interest income as a result of an increase in principal investments
related to the proceeds from the Convertible Notes.
The Company had sales of approximately $1,709,000 during the six months
ended June 30, 1998 compared to approximately $754,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997, representing a 127% increase. The increase in sales was primarily
the result of the addition of sales for the Heska Periodontal Product launched
in the fourth quarter of 1997.
Contract revenue represents revenue the Company received from grants
and from unaffiliated third parties for performing contract research and
development activities utilizing the ATRIGEL(R) system, and was approximately
$192,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to approximately
$389,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 51% decrease.
The decrease was primarily due to the completion of several grants during 1997.
Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
approximately $1,908,000 compared to approximately $794,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997, representing a 140% increase. Interest income increased due
to additions in principal investments as a result of the proceeds from a
$50,000,000 convertible subordinated note offering completed in the fourth
quarter 1997 and the $7,000,000 payment received under the Block Agreement. The
majority of the funds were invested in U.S. government bond funds, long-term
U.S. government and government agency investments. The remaining cash and cash
equivalents were invested in interest bearing accounts to fund the Company's
short-term operations.
Cost of goods sold recorded for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
approximately $1,113,000 compared to approximately $575,000 for the period ended
June 30, 1997, representing an increase of 94%. The increase is primarily
related to sales for the Heska Periodontal Product.
Research and development expenses - ATRIDOX(TM) product for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 were approximately $2,105,000 compared to
approximately $2,910,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997, representing a
28% decrease. This decrease is primarily the result of a shift in research
efforts to new projects as a result of the issuance of an Approvable Letter from
the FDA for ATRIDOX(TM).
Other research and development expenses were approximately $3,751,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to approximately $3,035,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 24% increase. The increase
was primarily as a result of increased expenses associated with new research
project opportunities.

<PAGE> 10
Administrative and marketing expenses increased to approximately
$3,111,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from approximately $1,082,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1997, representing a 188% increase. The
primary reason for this increase was interest expense of $1,788,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to interest expense of $ -0- for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 incurred as a result of the Convertible Notes.
For the reasons described above, the Company recorded net income of
approximately $788,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to a net
income of approximately $1,348,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997,
representing a 42% decrease.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $12,487,000, marketable securities of approximately $52,691,000
and other current assets of approximately $4,302,000 for total current assets of
approximately $69,480,000. Current liabilities totaled approximately $1,468,000,
which resulted in working capital of approximately $68,012,000.
In August 1997, the Company established a $1,000,000 line of credit
with a bank. Borrowings under the line bear interest at the prime rate. As of
June 30, 1998, there were no borrowings outstanding under this agreement.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, net cash provided by
operating activities was approximately $461,000. This was primarily a result of
the net income for the period of approximately $788,000, adjusted for certain
non-cash expenses, and changes in other operating assets and liabilities as set
forth in the statements of cash flows.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $3,251,000
during the six months ended June 30, 1998, primarily as a result of the net
investment in marketable securities during the period and the acquisition of
property, plant and equipment.
The Company's long-term capital expenditure requirements will depend on
numerous factors, including the progress of the Company's research and
development programs, the time required to file and process regulatory approval
applications, the development of the Company's commercial manufacturing
facilities, the ability of the Company to obtain additional licensing
arrangements, and the demand for the Company's products, if and when approved.
The Company expended approximately $723,000 for property, plant and equipment
and leasehold improvements, and approximately $149,000 for patent development in
the six month period ending June 30, 1998. The Company expects its capital
expenditures to approximate $1,800,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998,
which will be used primarily to complete the automation of its manufacturing
facility and to upgrade laboratory equipment.
On April 8, 1998, the Company received an Approvable Letter from the
FDA for the ATRIDOX(TM) drug product. The Approvable Letter also resulted in the
Company's receipt of a $7,000,000 milestone payment pursuant to the Company's
agreement with Block which was received on April 17, 1998.
