Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
September 30, 1996
1. Basis of Presentation
The condensed financial statements of Protein Polymer Technologies, Inc. (the
"Company") for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 are
unaudited. These financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of
only normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary to state fairly the financial position at September 30, 1996 and the
results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and
1995. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year ended December 31, 1996. For more complete financial information, these
financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report and
Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
2. Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. The net loss figures used for this
calculation recognize accumulated dividends on the Company's Series D Preferred
Stock. Such dividends are payable when declared by the Board in cash or common
stock.
3. Liquidity
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. The Company believes its existing
available cash and short-term investments as of September 30, 1996 is sufficient
to meet its anticipated capital requirements until May 1997. Substantial
additional capital resources will be required to fund continuing expenditures
related to the Company's research, development and product marketing activities.
If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to
significantly curtail its operating plans and relinquish rights to significant
portions of the Company's technology or potential products.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General Overview
Protein Polymer Technologies, Inc. is a development stage biotechnology company
that has concentrated its research efforts on establishing a scientific and
technical leadership position in the design and manufacture of unique
protein-based materials. The Company has identified biomedical market and
product opportunities that it believes will exploit the unique properties of the
technology to competitive advantage. The Company has been unprofitable to date,
and has an accumulated deficit of $18,385,000.
In September 1995 the Company entered into collaborative agreements with
Ethicon, Inc., a subsidiary of the Johnson & Johnson Company, related to the
Company's tissue adhesives and sealants program. To date the Company has
received $1.4 million in contractual payments from Ethicon as reimbursements for
ongoing program research and development efforts.
The Company's other programs it is currently pursuing include tissue
augmentation, surgical adhesion barriers, drug delivery and medical device
coatings. The Company's intended strategy with most of its other programs is to
enter into product development agreements with additional medical product
marketing and distribution companies. Although these arrangements, to the
extent they become available to the Company, may provide significant near-term
revenues in the form of up-front license fees, research and development revenues
and milestone payments, the Company expects to incur continuing operating losses
for the next several years.
Results of Operations
For the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, sales and license fees
from the Company's ProNectin(R) F product line were $21,000 and $35,000,
respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 these
revenues were $46,000 and $95,000, respectively. The decreases were due to the
launch in 1995 of the Company's SmartPlastic(TM) Activated Plasticware(TM)
product line which included sales into the distributor pipeline. Contract
research revenue for the three months ended September 30, 1996 totaled $310,000,
versus $800,000 for the same period in 1995. The revenue represents contractual
payments from Ethicon related to the Company's tissue adhesives and sealants
program, including in the 1995 period an $800,000 payment upon the signing of
the agreements. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 these
revenues were $410,000 and $810,000, respectively.
Interest income was $26,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
versus $6,000 for the same period in 1995. For the nine months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995 it was $65,000 and $28,000, respectively. The increases
resulted primarily from additional cash available for investing received from
the sale of common stock and the exercise of privately held warrants.
Cost of goods sold was $8,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
compared to $24,000 for the same period in 1995. For the nine month periods
these expenses were $20,000 and $54,000, respectively. The decreases related
primarily to reduced sales of the SmartPlastic product line. Royalty expenses
paid to Stanford University and Telios Pharmaceuticals, Inc. were $6,000 for
each of the three month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, and $29,000
for each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.

<PAGE>
Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1996
were $544,000, compared to $375,000 for the same period in 1995, a 45% increase.
The increase was attributable to expanded efforts related to the tissue
adhesives program, including preparation for Good Laboratory Practices ("GLP")
animal testing and materials manufacturing capabilities, as required by the Food
and Drug Administration. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995
these expenses were $1,452,000 and $1,296,000, respectively, a 12% increase.
The Company expects that its research and development expenses will increase
over time to the extent its projects are successfully developed and additional
capital is obtained.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 were $394,000, as compared to $326,000 for the same period in
1995, a 21% increase. This increase was primarily due to additional patent and
legal expenses and expanded investor relations efforts. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 these expenses were $1,062,000 and $1,014,000,
respectively, a 5% increase. The Company expects its selling, general and
administrative expenses to increase as support for its research and development
efforts require and to the extent additional capital is raised.
For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Company recorded a net loss
applicable to common shareholders of $719,000, or $.10 per share compared to a
loss of $152,000, or $.03 per share for the same period in 1995. The 1995
period included an $800,000 payment upon the signing of the Ethicon agreements.
Also included in the three month periods of 1996 and 1995 were $124,000 and
$261,000 for undeclared and/ or paid cumulative dividends related to the
Company's outstanding preferred stock. For the nine months ended September 30,
1996 and 1995, the Company recorded a net loss applicable to common shareholders
of $2,410,000, or $.37 per share compared to $1,721,000, or $.30 per share for
the same period in 1995. Included in the nine month periods of 1996 and 1995
were $368,000 and $261,000 for undeclared and/or paid cumulative dividends
related to the Company's outstanding preferred stock.
The Company expects to incur similar or increasing operating losses for the
immediate future (to the extent additional capital is obtained), due primarily
to increases in the Company's product development, manufacturing and business
development activities. The Company's results depend on its ability to generate
product and contract revenues and establish strategic alliances, increased
research, development and manufacturing efforts, preclinical and clinical
product testing and commercialization expenditures, expenses incurred for
regulatory compliance and patent prosecution, and other factors. The Company's
results will also fluctuate from period to period due to timing differences.
To date the Company believes that inflation and changing prices have not had a
material effect on its continuing operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 1996, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments of $2,167,000 as compared to $2,011,000 at December 31, 1995. As of
September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $1,708,000, compared to
$1,803,000 at December 31, 1995. For the nine months ending September 30, 1996
the Company raised a net of $1,960,000 from the exercise of warrants and options
for common stock, which offset losses from operations and capital expenditures.
8
<PAGE>
The Company had no long-term debt obligations as of September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995. For the nine months ending September 30, 1996, the Company's
expenditures for capital equipment and leasehold improvements totaled $97,000,
compared with $56,000 for the same period last year. The Company is expecting
to increase its capital expenditures in the next few quarters (to the extent
additional capital is obtained), as the Company moves into its expanded
facilities and retrofits existing space to achieve GLP compliance for laboratory
testing and materials manufacturing requirements.
The Company believes its existing available cash and short-term investments as
of September 30, 1996 will be sufficient to meet its anticipated capital
requirements until May 1997. Substantial additional capital resources will be
required to fund continuing expenditures related to the Company's research,
development and product marketing activities. The Company believes there may be
a number of alternatives to meet the continuing capital requirements of its
operations, such as additional collaborative agreements and public or private
financings, and is actively pursuing all of these approaches. However, there
can be no assurance that the requisite fundings will be consummated in the
necessary time frame or on terms favorable to the Company. If adequate funds
are not available, the Company may be required to significantly curtail its
operating plans and relinquish rights to significant portions of the Company's
technology or potential products.
