NOTE C - INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

The Company completed its initial public offering ("IPO") of its Common Stock in
August 1994.  The shares of Series A, B, C, D and E Preferred Stock were
automatically converted on a one-for-one basis to shares of Common Stock on the
closing date of August 4, 1994.

NOTE D - LOSS PER SHARE

The primary loss per share is based on the weighted average Common shares
outstanding during the period.  The fully diluted loss per share assumes the
conversion of the preferred shares to common shares as of the beginning of the
period, or from the date of issuance if later.  The loss per share for periods
prior to August 4, 1994, the closing date of the IPO, also gives effect to the
requirements of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83 (SAB 83).

     ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
              AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     EXCEPT FOR THE HISTORICAL INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN, THE FOLLOWING
DISCUSSION CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND
UNCERTAINTIES.  THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE
DISCUSSED HEREIN.  FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTE TO SUCH DIFFERENCES
INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE DISCUSSED IN THIS SECTION AS WELL AS
THOSE DISCUSSED IN THE COMPANY'S PROSPECTUS, DATED MAY 10, 1996, FILED WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

GENERAL

     CIMA LABS INC.  ("CIMA" or the "Company") was founded in 1986 to develop
effervescent drug delivery technologies and focused initially on contract
manufacturing of liquid effervescents.  CIMA continues to be a development stage
company.  CIMA's business focus has evolved over the last several years with the
development and patenting of OraSolv-R-, an oral dosage form
which incorporate microencapsulated drug ingredients into a tablet that
dissolves quickly in the mouth without chewing or water and which effectively
masks the taste of the medication being delivered.  In 1993, following issuance
of the U.S. patent covering OraSolv-R-, the Company began to
emphasize and focus on the development of OraSolv-R- products
and currently focuses primarily on such products.

     At June 30, 1996, the Company had accumulated net losses of approximately
$32,683,000. The Company's revenues have been from product sales using the
Company's AutoLution-R- (a liquid effervescent) technology,
license fees paid by corporate partners in consideration of the transfer of
rights under collaboration agreements, and research and development fees paid by
corporate partners to fund the Company's research and development efforts for
products developed under such agreements.  To date, such revenues have been
derived primarily from manufacturing agreements with third parties for liquid
effervescent and other products, and to a lesser extent from research and
development fees and licensing arrangements, the latter generated primarily in
the last five years.  Revenues from manufacturing liquid effervescent products
under agreements with third parties have decreased as a result of the Company's
decision to discontinue manufacturing those products and focus on developing its
OraSolv-R- technology.  The last revenues for manufacturing
liquid effervescent products were recognized in 1995.  In addition to revenues
from such manufacturing, research and development and licensing, the Company has
funded operations from private sales of equity securities, realizing net
proceeds of approximately $25,963,000.  In July 1994 the Company completed an
initial public offering of shares of its Common Stock realizing net proceeds of
approximately $16,379,000, and in May 1996 completed an additional public
offering of its Common Stock realizing net proceeds of approximately
$12,145,000.

     The Company expects that losses will continue at least through 1997.  Costs
and expenses are expected to remain relatively stable as the majority of the
necessary research and development personnel have already been hired.  It is
expected that additional manufacturing personnel will be added and operating
expenses will increase at such time as the Company initiates the commercial
production of OraSolv-R- products.


                                          7

<PAGE>

     The Company's ability to generate revenues is dependent upon its ability to
enter into and be successful in collaborative arrangements with pharmaceutical
and other healthcare companies for the development and manufacture of
OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products to be marketed by these corporate
partners.  The Company is highly dependent upon the efforts of the corporate
partners to successfully market OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products.
Although the Company believes these partners will have an economic motivation to
market these products vigorously, the amount and timing of resources to be
devoted to marketing are not within the control of the Company.  These partners
independently could make material marketing and other commercialization
decisions which could adversely affect the Company's future revenues.  Moreover,
certain of the Company's products are seasonal in nature and the Company's
revenues could vary materially from quarter to quarter depending on which of
such products, if any, are then being marketed.

     Since the Company's initial public offering in 1994, the Company has put in
place a substantially new management team.  This new management team was
responsible for the build out and validation of the Company's Eden Prairie
manufacturing facility.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1996

     The Company's results of operations for the three-and six-month periods 
ended June 30, 1996 reflect increased emphasis on development of 
OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products.  Product sales declined from $139,777 
and $151,074 in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 
respectively, to no product sales in the first six months of 1996 as the 
Company ceased to manufacture liquid effervescent and other products.  The 
Company does not intend to manufacture liquid effervescent products in the 
future.  Research and development fees and licensing revenues were $32,000 
and $246,808 for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, 
respectively, compared to $275,277 and $667,135, respectively, in the 
comparable periods of 1996.  These increased research and development fees 
and licensing revenues reflect the signing of license option and development 
agreements with multinational pharmaceutical companies that provide for 
licensing fees, milestone payments, royalties and manufacturing fees.  
Research and development fees and licensing revenues will tend to fluctuate 
on a quarter to quarter basis.

     Cost of goods sold decreased from $180,934 and $240,038 in the three- 
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, respectively, to zero in the first 
six months of 1996.  Costs of goods sold will increase when the Company 
begins commercial production and sales of OraSolv-Registered Trademark- 
products. Research and product development expenses decreased from $1,935,860 
and $4,228,349 in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995, 
respectively, to $1,298,850 and $2,674,796 in the three- and six-month 
periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively.  This decrease primarily was the 
result of a product development/optimization charge in the first two quarters 
of 1995 of approxiamtely $1,659,000, of which approximately $591,000 was 
taken in the second quarter of 1995, from an independent consultant for 
improving product taste and packaging of OraSolv-Registered Trademark- 
products.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased due to 
downsizing from $929,286 and $1,947,969 in the three- and six-month periods 
ended June 30, 1995, respectively to $797,057 and $1,580,759 in the three- 
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively.  Net interest income 
decreased slightly from $128,606 and $298,196, respectively, in the three- 
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 to $128,093 and $167,478, 
respectively, in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 due to 
slightly lower cash balances. Other income (expense) decreased from $12,136 
and $8,963, respectively, in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 
1995 to $2,555 and $(2,824), respectively, in the three- and six-month 
periods ended June 30, 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company has financed its operations to date primarily through private
and public sales of its equity securities and revenues from manufacturing
agreements.  Through June 30, 1996, CIMA had received net offering proceeds from
such private and public sales of approximately $54,500,000 and had net sales
from manufacturing agreements of approximately $13,800,000.  Among other things,
these funds were used to purchase approximately $14,417,000 of capital
equipment, including approximately $7,500,000 in the last two quarters of 1994
in connection with completing the Company's new Eden Prairie manufacturing
facility.  In July 1994 the Company completed an initial public offering of
shares of its Common Stock, realizing net proceeds of approximately $16,400,000,
and in May 1996 the Company completed another public offering of shares of its
Common Stock, realizing net proceeds of approximately $12,145,000.  The funds
raised in CIMA's initial public offering have been used to build out the
manufacturing facility, purchase and validate the appropriate production
equipment, complete the research and development facilities and purchase the
necessary equipment for that facility.  The Company expects to use the funds
raised in its May 1996 public offering primarily to begin commercial production
in its new manufacturing facility and to fund research and development
(including preclinical and clinical testing) for the application of the
OraSolv-Registered Trademark- technology to pharmaceutical products, and that
the balance of such funds will be used for working capital and other general
corporate purposes.

     The Company's long-term capital requirements will depend upon numerous
factors, including the status of the Company's collaborative arrangements, the
progress of the Company's research and development programs and receipt of
revenues from sales of the Company's products.  Cash and cash equivalents, were
approximately $13,952,000 at June 30, 1996.  The Company believes that its
currently available funds, excluding any license fees that may be received in 
the future, will meet its needs at least through the first quarter of 1997.  
Prior to such time the Company will need to raise additional funds through 
public or private financings, including equity financing which may be 
dilutive to stockholders.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be 
able to raise additional funds if its capital resources are exhausted, or 
that funds will be available on terms attractive to the Company.

     The Company has not generated taxable income through June 1996.  At June
30, 1996, the net operating losses available to offset future taxable income
were approximately $32,589,000.  Because the Company has experienced ownership
changes, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code regulations, future utilization of
the operating loss carryforwards will be limited in any one fiscal year.  The
carryforwards expire beginning in 2001.  As a result of the annual limitation, a
portion of these carryforwards may expire before ultimately becoming available
to reduce potential federal income tax liabilities.

BUSINESS RISKS

     The Company is a development stage company and must be evaluated in light
of the uncertainties and complications present for any such company and, in
particular, a company in the pharmaceutical industry.  The Company has
accumulated aggregate net losses from inception in December 1986 through June
30, 1996 of approximately $32,683,000.  Losses have resulted principally from
costs incurred in research and development of the Company's technologies and
from general and administrative costs.  These costs have exceeded the Company's
revenues, which


                                          9

<PAGE>

have been derived primarily from the manufacturing of AutoLution-Registered
Trademark- (a liquid effervescent) and other non-OraSolv-Registered Trademark-
products under agreements with third parties.  The Company no longer
manufactures such products and no longer derives revenues from their
manufacture.  The Company expects to continue to incur losses at least through
1997.  Many of the Company's expenditures to date have been non-recurring costs
for plant, equipment and product optimization and validation.  There can be no
assurance, however, that the Company will ever generate substantial revenues or
achieve profitability.

     The Company may need to raise additional funds to operate prior to the end
of the first half of 1997 and will need to raise such funds prior to the end of
1997, and is subject to the risks inherent in raising such additional funds.
See "-Liquidity and Capital Resources."  In addition, the Company is dependent
upon its ability to enter into and perform under collaborative arrangements with
pharmaceutical companies for the development and commercialization of its
products.  See "-General."

     The success of the Company and of its business strategy is also dependent
in large part on the ability of the Company to attract and retain key management
and operating personnel.  Such individuals are in high demand and are often
subject to competing offers.  In particular, the Company's success will depend,
in part, on its ability to attract and retain the services of its executive
officers and scientific and technical personnel.  The loss of the services of
one or more members of management or key employees or the inability to hire
additional personnel as needed or replace personnel who have left the Company
may have a material adverse affect on the Company.  The Company currently has no
full-time chief financial officer, but is actively recruiting to fill this
position.

     To date no commercial sales of OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products have
been made, and the Company has not derived any revenues from sales of
OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products.  Further, the Company does not expect to
derive any such revenues until at least 1997.  The Company has not yet
manufactured OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products in commercial quantities.
To achieve desired levels of production, the Company will be required to
increase substantially its manufacturing capabilities.  There can be no
assurance that manufacturing can be scaled-up in a timely manner to allow
production in sufficient quantities to meet the needs of the Company's corporate
partners.

     The foregoing risks reflect the Company's stage of development and the
nature of the Company's industry and products.  Also inherent in the Company's
stage of development is a range of additional risks, including competition,
uncertainties regarding the effects of health care reform on the pharmaceutical
industry, including pressures exerted on the prices charged for pharmaceutical
products, uncertainties regarding protection of patents and proprietary rights,
uncertainties relating to government regulation and risks associated with having
only one manufacturing facility.
