   the  three and nine  months  ended  September  30,  1996 are not  necessarily
   indicative  of the results to be expected  for the entire  fiscal year ending
   December 31, 1996.

Note 2.  Income per Common Share

   Income  per  common  share is  computed  by  dividing  the net  income by the
   weighted  average number of common shares  outstanding  plus dilutive  common
   share equivalents.

Note 3.  Reclassification

   The  Company  has reclassified  the  presentation  of  certain prior year
   information to conform  with the current  year  presentation  format.  This
   included  the  reclassification  of  $246,000  to cost of  product  sales and
   services for the third quarter and $679,000 for the first nine months of
   1995. These costs were associated with the Company's laboratory operations in
   the 1995  period  and were  previously  presented  as selling, general and
   administrative expenses. Additionally, the Company has classified as costs of
   product sales and services  $420,000 for the third quarter and $1,416,000 for
   the first nine months of 1996 as those costs  related to  technical  services
   dedicated to the support of its platelet  releasate  technology.  These costs
   were  classified  as research and  development in previous  years since such
   costs were  related to new product  development  and drug discovery.  In the
   Company's  continuing  effort to focus on its wound care service business,
   during the second half of 1995 the Company  instituted a realignment of its
   business  activities  which included the  discontinuance  of further  product
   research and development.

     Item 2.  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
              Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Revenues.  The  Company's  revenues  for the third  quarter of fiscal  year 1996
increased 31% to  $17,462,000,  compared to $13,322,000 for the third quarter of
the prior fiscal year. For the quarter the revenue  increase is  attributable to
the  operation of 109 wound care  facilities  at the end of the third quarter of
1996  compared to 77 at the end of the third  quarter of 1995 and a 13% increase
in revenues at existing  centers  related to higher patient  volumes.  Total new
patients increased 31% from 7,730 in the third quarter of 1995 to 10,146 for the
same period in 1996.  The total  number of new  patients  receiving  Procuren(R)
therapy  increased  17% from 1,779 in the third  quarter of 1995 to 2,083 in the
third quarter of 1996. The percentage of patients receiving  Procuren(R) therapy
decreased  during the third  quarter of 1996 to 21% from 23% for the same period
in 1995.  For the first nine months of 1996 revenues  totalled  $48,767,000,  an
increase  of 27%  compared  to  $38,251,000  for the same  period  in 1995.  The
increased  revenue is attributable to the operation of 109 wound care facilities
at the end of the third  quarter of 1996  compared to 77 at the end of the third
quarter of 1995 and a 13% increase in revenues at existing wound care facilities
related  to higher  patient  volumes.  Total  new  patients  to the  wound  care
facilities  increased 29% to 28,572 in the first nine months of 1996 compared to
22,086  in the first  nine  months of 1995.  The  total  number of new  patients
receiving Procuren(R) therapy increased 14% to 5,871 in the first nine months of
1996 from 5,139 in the first nine months of 1995.  However,  the  percentage  of
patients  receiving  Procuren(R)  decreased from 23% in the first nine months of
1995 to 21% during the first nine months of 1996. The Company believes that this
decrease is  attributable  primarily  to an increase in the  percentage  of less
severe chronic wounds being treated at the Company's Wound Care Centers(R),  for
which physicians are less likely to prescribe Procuren(R),  as well as a lack of
available  reimbursement for Medicare  patients.  The Company believes that this
shift in the severity of the wounds treated at a Wound Care Center(R)  occurs as
the local medical  community  becomes  familiar with the services offered by the
Wound Care Center(R) and refers a broader range of chronic wound patients to the
Wound Care Center(R) for treatment.  The Company anticipates that the percentage
of patients  receiving  Procuren(R)  will  continue to decline  gradually in the
future.

Costs of product sales and services. Costs of product sales and services for the
third  quarter  increased  from  $6,587,000  in 1995 to  $9,862,000  in 1996, an
increase  of 50%,  and for the first nine  months of 1996  totalled  $27,221,000
compared to  $19,081,000  for the same period in 1995. The third quarter of 1996
includes $420,000 of technical service costs which were reported as research and
development  expenses for the same period of 1995.  Excluding  technical service
costs, the increase in cost of product sales and services from the third quarter
of 1995 to the third  quarter of 1996 was 35%. The increase is  attributable  to
additional   staffing  and  operating   expenses  of  approximately   $1,127,000
associated with the operation of 32 additional  wound care facilities at the end
of the third quarter of 1996, as well as increased volume at existing wound care
facilities.  Additionally, these 32 facilities included four free standing Wound
Care Centers(R) and nine additional under  arrangement  Wound Care Centers(R) at
which the  services  component  of costs is higher than at the  Company's  other
facilities due to the additional clinical staffing and expense that these models
require.  As  compared  with the third  quarter  of 1995,  the  higher  services
components  at these  facilities  accounted  for an  additional  $677,000 of the
increase  in product  costs and  services  for the third  quarter of 1996.  As a
percentage of revenues, costs of product sales and services (excluding technical
service)  for the third  quarter of 1996 was 52% compared to 49% the same period
in 1995.  For the first nine months of 1996 costs of product  sales and services
increased  43%. The first nine months of 1996  includes  $1,416,000 of technical
service costs which were reported as research and development  costs in the same
period in 1995.  Excluding  technical  service  costs,  the  increase in cost of
product  sales and services  from the first nine months of 1995  compared to the
first nine months of 1996 was 35%.  The  increase is  attributed  to  additional
staffing and operating expenses of approximately  $3,200,000 associated with the
operation of 32 additional wound care facilities at the end of the third quarter
of  1996  as well  as  increased  volume  of  existing  wound  care  facilities.
Additionally  these 32  facilities  included  seven  free  standing  Wound  Care
Centers(R) and nine additional under arrangement Wound Care

                                      7

Centers  at  which  the  services  components  of costs  is  higher  than at the
Company's other facilities due to the additional staffing and expense that these
models  require.  As  compared  with the first nine  months of 1995,  the higher
services components at these facilities  accounted for an additional  $1,377,000
of the increase in product costs and services for the first nine months of 1996.
As a percentage  of  revenues,  costs of product  sales and services  (excluding
technical service) for the nine months of 1996 was 53% as compared to 50% in the
same period in 1995. The increase is  attributable  to new Wound Care Centers(R)
which include a higher service component.

Selling,  General  and  Administrative.   Selling,  general  and  administrative
expenses for the third quarter  increased from  $4,636,000 in 1995 to $4,702,000
in 1996,  an  increase  of 1%,  and for the nine  months  of 1996  increased  to
$14,315,000  compared to $13,513,000 for the same period in 1995, an increase of
6%. For the quarter the increase is  attributable  to the staffing and operating
expenses  associated  with the  growth in the wound care  business  particularly
related  to field  support  departments.  For the nine  months the  increase  is
primarily   attributable  to  staffing  and  operating  expenses  of  $1,469,000
associated  with the growth in the wound care business  particularly  related to
field support departments,  offset by a $495,000 decrease in expenses related to
European  operations which were  discontinued in the third quarter of 1995. As a
percentage of revenues,  selling, general and administrative,  expenses were 35%
in the third quarter of 1995 compared with 27% in the third quarter of 1996, and
for the nine months decreased to 29% in 1996 compared to 35% for the same period
in 1995.  The decrease is  attributable  to the  discontinuance  of the European
operations as well as the ability of the Company to obtain leverage by spreading
the costs of its overhead structure over a broader revenue base.

Research and  Development.  Research and  development was $921,000 for the third
quarter of 1995 and  $3,315,000  for the first nine months of 1995.  The Company
did not incur research and  development  expenses in 1996 since it  discontinued
all new  product  research  and  development  in the  second  quarter  of  1995.
Technical   service  costs  associated  with  the  support  of  Procuren(R)  are
classified as a cost of product sales.

Net Income.  Net income  improved from $1,284,000 or $.12 per share in the third
quarter of 1995 to $2,989,000 or $.24 per share in the third quarter of 1996 and
for the nine  months  improved  from  $2,592,000  of $.24  per  share in 1995 to
$7,305,000 or $.62 per share for the first nine months of 1996.  The increase in
earnings of $4,713,000 for the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 as compared
to September 30, 1995 is primarily attributable to savings of $1,899,000 related
to the discontinuance of new product research and development, an improvement in
operating  margins  associated  with the revenue  growth and  economies of scale
achieved from market growth and the termination of European operations.

Liquidity and Capital  Resources.  Working  Capital was $43 million at September
30,  1996  compared to $12.6  million at December  31,  1995.  Total cash,  cash
equivalents and marketable securities held- to-maturity as of September 30, 1996
was $40.4  million and was  invested  primarily  in highly  liquid  money market
funds,  commercial paper and government securities.  The ratio of current assets
to current  liabilities  increased  from 2.5:1 at December  31, 1995 to 5.7:1 at
September 30, 1996. The Company's increase in working capital and improvement in
the ratio of current assets to current  liabilities  reflect the proceeds of the
public  offering of  1,437,500  shares of common  stock  completed  in the third
quarter of 1996.

Cash flows  provided by  operations  for the first nine months of 1996  totalled
$5,837,000  primarily  attributable to the net income for the period. Cash flows
used in investing  activities  totalled  $11,025,000  primarily  attributable to
purchase of marketable  securities.  Cash flows provided by financing activities
totalled  $23,601,000  primarily  attributable to proceeds from the common stock
offering and the exercise of stock options.

     For the first nine months of 1996, the Company experienced a $3,105,000 net
increase in accounts

                                      8

receivable primarily due to the increase in revenues. The average number of days
receivables  outstanding  increased to 56 days as of September 30, 1996 compared
to 53 as of December 31,  1995.  Further,  the  Company's  accounts  payable and
accrued  expenses  increased  $979,000  as of  September  30,  1996  compared to
December 31, 1995.

The Company's  longer term cash  requirements  include  working  capital for the
further  expansion  of its wound  care  business.  Other cash  requirements  are
anticipated  for capital  expenditures  in the normal  course of  business.  The
Company  expects that based on its current  business  plan,  its  existing  cash
equivalents and marketable  securities will be sufficient to satisfy its current
working capital needs. The effects of inflation and foreign currency translation
risks are considered immaterial.
