                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
                                    (UNAUDITED)
                                          
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial information included herein for the three-month periods ended 
March 31, 1998 and 1997 and the financial information as of March 31, 1998 is 
unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments consisting only 
of normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, 
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of 
operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The financial information 
as of December 31, 1997 is derived from AntiVirals Inc.'s (the Company's) 
Form 10-KSB. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction 
with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's 
Form 10-KSB. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are 
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2.  EARNINGS PER SHARE
Beginning December 31, 1997, basic earnings per share (EPS) and diluted EPS 
are computed using the methods prescribed by Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standard No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE (SFAS 128).  Basic EPS is 
calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for 
the period and diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of 
common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding.   Prior 
period amounts have been restated to conform with the presentation 
requirements of SFAS 128.  Given that the Company is in a loss position, 
there is no difference between basic EPS and diluted EPS since the common 
stock equivalents would be antidilutive.  This restatement to conform with 
the presentation requirements of SFAS 128 resulted in no change to previously 
reported numbers.

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

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

The Financial Statements and Notes thereto should be read in conjunction with 
the following discussion.  The discussion in this Form 10-QSB contains 
certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, 
including, but not limited to, the results of research and development 
efforts, the results of pre-clinical and clinical testing, the effect of 
regulation by FDA and other agencies, the impact of competitive products, 
product development, commercialization and technological difficulties, and 
other risks detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission 
filings.

OVERVIEW

From its inception in July 1980, the Company has devoted its resources 
primarily to fund its research and development efforts.  The Company has been 
unprofitable since inception and, other than limited interest and grant 
revenue, has had no material revenues from the sale of products or other 
sources, and does not expect material revenues for at least the next 12 
months.  The Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable 
future as it expands its research and development efforts.  As of March 31, 
1998, the Company's accumulated deficit was $17,466,331.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED WITH QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998. 
Operating expenses increased from $621,751 in 1997 to $1,601,229 in 1998 due 
to increases in research and development staffing and increased expenses 
associated with outside collaborations and pre-clinical testing of the 
Company's technologies.  Additionally, increased general and administrative 
costs were incurred to support the research expansion, and to broaden the 
Company's investor and public relations efforts due to its change in status 
to a public company in mid-1997.  Net interest income increased from $29,055 
in 1997 to $170,721 in 1998 due to earnings on increased cash balances, which 
consisted of proceeds from the initial public offerings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $15,790,550 at March 31, 1998, 
compared with $17,638,936 at December 31, 1997.  The decrease of $1,848,386 
was primarily due to increases in research and development staffing and 
increased expenses associated with outside collaborations and pre-clinical 
testing of the Company's technologies.  Additionally, increased general and 
administrative costs were incurred to support the research expansion, to 
broaden the Company's investor and public relations efforts due to its change 
in status to a public company in mid-1997, and to advance funding to 
ImmunoTherapy Corporation as part of its acquisition thereof.

The Company's future expenditures and capital requirements will depend on 
numerous factors, including without limitation, the progress of its research 
and development programs, the progress of its pre-clinical and clinical 
trials, the time and costs involved in


                                       7

obtaining regulatory approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending 
and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights, 
competing technological and market developments, the ability of the Company 
to establish collaborative arrangements and the terms of any such 
arrangements, and the costs associated with commercialization of its 
products. The Company's cash requirements are expected to continue to 
increase significantly each year as it expands its activities and operations. 
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will ever be able to 
generate product revenues or achieve or sustain profitability.

The Company expects that its cash requirements over the next twelve months 
will be satisfied by existing cash resources.
