NOTE C - INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

The Company completed its initial public offering ("IPO") of its Common Stock in
July 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.

GENERAL

      CIMA LABS INC. ("CIMA" or the "Company") was founded in 1986 to develop
effervescent drug delivery technologies and focused initially on 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-Registered Trademark-, an oral dosage form which
incorporates 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-Registered Trademark-, the Company began to
emphasize and focus on the development of OraSolv-Registered Trademark- products
and currently focuses primarily on such products.

      At March 31, 1996, the Company had accumulated net losses of
approximately $30,899,000. The Company's revenues have been from product sales
using the Company's AutoLution-Registered Trademark- (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 that product and focus on developing its
OraSolv-Registered Trademark- 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.

      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-Registered Trademark- products.

      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



                                          7

<PAGE>

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 buildout, validation and FDA registration of the 
Company's Eden Prairie manufacturing facility as well as the signing of three 
new collaborative agreements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995

      The Company's results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 
1996 reflect increased emphasis on development of OraSolv-Registered 
Trademark-products. Product sales declined from $11,000 in the first quarter 
of 1995 to no product sales in the first quarter of 1996 as the Company 
ceased to contract 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 $392,000 
and $215,000 in the first quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively. 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 to zero in the first quarter of 1996 from 
$59,000 in the first quarter of 1995. 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 to 
$1,376,000 in the first quarter of 1996 from $2,292,000 in the first quarter 
of 1995. This decrease was the result of a product development/ optimization 
charge in the first quarter of 1995 of $1,068,000 from an independent 
consultant for improving product taste and packaging of OraSolv-Registered 
Trademark- products. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 
due to downsizing to $784,000 in the first quarter of 1996 from $1,019,000 in 
the first quarter of 1995. Net interest income decreased to $39,000 in the 
first quarter of 1996 from $170,000 in the first quarter of 1995 due to lower 
cash balances.

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 March 31, 1996, CIMA had received net 
offering proceeds from such private and public sales of approximately 
$43,300,000 and had net sales from contract manufacturing agreements of 
approximately $13,800,000. Among other things, these funds were used to 
purchase approximately $14,300,000 of capital equipment, including 
approximately $7,500,000 in the last two quarters of 1994 in connection with 
completing

                                          8

<PAGE>

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. The funds raised in 
CIMA's initial public offering have been used to buildout the manufacturing 
facility, purchase and validate the appropriate production equipment, 
complete and staff the research and development facilities and purchase the 
necessary equipment for that facility.

      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 $2,517,000 at March 31, 1996. The Company completed a public offering of 
its Common Stock in May 1996.  The Company believes that the net proceeds to 
the Company from this public offering, combined with its currently available 
funds and excluding any license fees that may be received in the future, will 
meet its needs at least through the first quarter of 1997. 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 March 1996. At March
31, 1996, the net operating losses available to offset future taxable income
were approximately $31,397,000. 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 March
31, 1996 of approximately $30,899,000.  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 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 will need to raise additional funds to operate in 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.
