                                  June 30, 2000

ORGANIZATION OF THE COMPANY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

        A-Fem Medical Corporation (the Company or A-Fem) is a medical technology
company with multiple product platforms targeting women's health needs. A-Fem
has developed three proprietary technology platforms: one based on its inSYNC(R)
miniform interlabial pad, another based on its RAPID-SENSE(R) diagnostic tests
and the third based on its PADKIT(R) SAMPLE COLLECTION SYSTEM. A-Fem currently
markets the inSYNC miniform as an alternative to tampons, pads and liners for
light flow, or in combination for heavier flow protection. The PADKIT, currently
in clinical trials, utilizes a miniform as a noninvasive sample collection
method for use in testing for certain cancers and sexually transmitted and
infectious diseases. A-Fem has also entered into several joint relationships to
develop point-of-care diagnostic products that use its proprietary RAPID-SENSE
technology.


Basis of Presentation

        The interim financial data are unaudited; however, in the opinion of
management, the interim data include all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the
interim periods. The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
A-Fem pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although A-Fem believes that the disclosures included herein are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Operating results for
the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of future results. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes to financial statements included in A-Fem's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Net Loss Per Share

        Basic and diluted loss per share are required to be computed using the
methods prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
"Earnings per Share" (SFAS 128). Basic loss per share is calculated using the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and diluted
loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares
and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding. A net loss was reported in
each of the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. Stock options for the
purchase of 3,409,484 and 3,583,560 shares at June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, and warrants for the purchase of 1,593,939 and 2,461,673 shares at
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, were not included in loss per share
calculations, because to do so would have been anti-dilutive. In



                                                                          PAGE 5
<PAGE>   6

addition, shares of A-Fem's convertible preferred stock and warrants covering
shares of A-Fem's convertible preferred stock outstanding at June 30, 2000 were
not included in loss per share calculations because to do so would have been
anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133). This statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its
fair value. SFAS 133 also requires that changes in the derivative instrument's
fair value be recognized currently in results of operations unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 (SFAS 137) which deferred the effective
date of SFAS 133. SFAS 133 is now effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The Company expects that adoption of SFAS 133 will not have a
material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Reclassifications

        Certain amounts have been reclassified in the prior year financial
statement presentation to conform to the current year presentation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PLAN OF
OPERATION

        A-Fem Medical Corporation is a medical technology company with multiple
product platforms targeting women's health needs. A-Fem has developed three
proprietary technology platforms: one based on its inSYNC(R) miniform
interlabial pad, another based on its RAPID-SENSE(R) diagnostic tests, and the
third based on its PADKIT(R) SAMPLE COLLECTION SYSTEM. A-Fem currently markets
the inSYNC miniform as an alternative to tampons, pads and liners for light
flow, or in combination for heavier flow protection. The PADKIT, currently in
clinical trials, utilizes a miniform as a non-invasive sample collection method
for use in testing for certain cancers and sexually transmitted and infectious
diseases. A-Fem has also entered into several joint relationships to develop
point-of-care diagnostic products that use its proprietary RAPID-SENSE
technology.

OVERVIEW

        A-Fem continued to experience operating losses during the year ended
December 31, 1999, and into the first half of 2000, and has never generated
significant revenues from operations to offset expenses. A-Fem expects that
significant ongoing expenditures will be necessary to successfully implement its
business plan and develop, manufacture and market its products. These
circumstances raise substantial doubt about A-Fem's ability to continue as a
going concern. Execution of A-Fem's plans and its ability to continue as a going
concern depend upon its acquiring substantial additional financing. Management's
plans include efforts to obtain additional capital, through the sale of equity
securities and by licensing its RAPID-SENSE technology, and to seek partnering
opportunities for the inSYNC miniform. A-Fem has raised operating funds in the
past by selling shares of its common and preferred stock for consideration
totaling approximately $2.4 million during 1999 and $0.6 million during the
first half of 2000.

        A-Fem may not be able to raise additional funding or enter into a
strategic alliance. If A-Fem is unable to obtain adequate additional financing,
enter into such strategic alliance or generate sufficient sales revenues,
management may be required to curtail A-Fem's product development, marketing
activities and other operations, and A-Fem may be forced to cease operations.

        During the first half of 2000, A-Fem shifted the emphasis of its
technology development efforts to focus on the PADKIT, and will continue
RAPID-SENSE technology development solely for third-party development contracts.
A-Fem is in the process of evaluating alternative product strategies for the
PADKIT that will affect the magnitude of PADKIT clinical studies to be
undertaken. Results from initial clinical trials revealed additional product
claims for the PADKIT, and larger and more complex clinical studies would be
required to support such claims. In addition to seeking funding to support
additional clinical studies, A-Fem will seek strategic partnerships for the
PADKIT.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, were approximately
$9,000, as compared to approximately $18,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1999. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, net sales were $18,000, as
compared to $44,000 for the same period in 1999. This decrease was the result of
decreased levels of promotional support for the inSYNC miniform as compared to
the levels maintained during the prior year.

        Marketing and selling expense for the second quarter of 2000 was
approximately $6,000, as compared to approximately $90,000 for the quarter ended
June 30, 1999. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, marketing and
selling expense was approximately $22,000, as compared to approximately $241,000
for the same period in 1999. The decrease in marketing and selling expense
resulted from decreased advertising and promotional support in 2000 as compared
to the expenditures required to support the product roll-out in 1999.

        Research and development expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2000,
was approximately $208,000, as compared to approximately $262,000 for the same
quarter of the prior year. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000,
research and development expense was approximately $409,000, as compared to
approximately $510,000 for the same period in 1999. This decrease resulted from
a reduction in headcount as research and development efforts focused on PADKIT
clinical studies that utilize contract resources. We anticipate an increase in
research and development expense in the second half of 2000 as additional PADKIT
clinical studies are initiated.

        General and administrative expense was approximately $220,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000, as compared to approximately $249,000 for the same
period in the prior year. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, general
and administrative expense was approximately $419,000, as compared to $492,000
for the same period in 1999. This decrease resulted from decreased payroll
expense due to a reduction in the number of employees, and a decrease in travel
expense and banking fees.

        A-Fem's operating loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, was
approximately $479,000 as compared to approximately $641,000 for the same
quarter of the prior year. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, the
operating loss was approximately $949,000, as compared to a loss of
approximately $1,328,000 in the prior year. This decrease resulted from lower
expenses in all operating departments in 2000 as compared to the expenses in
1999.

        A-Fem's other income (expense) is composed primarily of income from
development contracts, interest income and interest expense. For the quarter
ended June 30, 2000 other income was approximately $39,000, as compared to other
expense of approximately $12,000 for the same period in the prior year. For the
six-month period ended June 30, 2000 other income was approximately $81,000, as
compared to other expense of approximately $22,000 for the same period in the
prior year. The period-to-period fluctuations reflect the receipt of $40,000 and
$80,000 in the quarter and six-month period ended June 30, 2000, respectively,
related to a



                                                                          PAGE 8
<PAGE>   9

development contract for a RAPID-SENSE diagnostic test and a reduction of
interest expense on a note payable.

        A-Fem's net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, was approximately
$440,000, as compared to approximately $653,000 for the same period in the prior
year. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company's net loss was
approximately $869,000, as compared to a net loss of $1,349,000 for the same
period in the prior year. These decreases reflect the receipt of payments
related to a development contract for a RAPID-SENSE diagnostic test, offset by a
reduction in interest expense for the first half of 2000 as compared to the
comparable period in 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        As of June 30, 2000, A-Fem had cash and cash equivalents of $196,618.
A-Fem's net cash position decreased by $232,227 between December 31, 1999 and
June 30, 2000, as a result of normal operating expenses.

        A-Fem expects to continue to incur losses through 2000 and 2001, because
the costs of development are expected to continue to exceed income from product
sales. A-Fem incurs approximately $160,000 per month of operating expenses. In
order to carry out its development plans for the PADKIT, A-Fem estimates it will
need to raise approximately $3 to 6 million in addition to the funds needed for
its monthly operating expenses. This estimate has been increased due to the
possibility that larger and more complex clinical studies may be needed to
support additional product claims for the PADKIT that were revealed by earlier
clinical trials. If A-Fem were able to raise the entire $3 to 6 million at once,
it would take approximately 18 months to complete A-Fem's development plans and
receive US approval to market for the PADKIT. A-Fem does not expect significant
amounts of debt financing to be available to it in the near term, and therefore
expects that it will have to issue additional equity. A-Fem cannot predict on
what terms any such financing might be available, but any such financing could
involve issuance of equity below current market prices and result in significant
dilution of existing stockholders.

FACTORS AFFECTING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        The statements contained in this report that are not statements of
historical fact may include forward-looking statements (as defined in Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) that involve a number of risks
and uncertainties. Moreover, from time to time A-Fem may issue other
forward-looking statements. The following factors are among those that could
cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements
and should be considered in evaluating any forward-looking statements: need for
additional financing; uncertainty associated with need for regulatory approvals;
continuing operating losses; results of financing efforts; lack of revenues from
products; market acceptance risks; uncertainty associated with product
development; the impact of competitive products and pricing; the effect of
economic conditions generally and within the medical technology industry; and
the additional factors listed


                                                                          PAGE 9
