                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)



1.  ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The unaudited financial statements have been prepared from the books and
records of Medarex, Inc. (the "Company") in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Interim results are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.  For
further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1995.

     Through March, 1996, the Company was in the development stage.  The Company
has started receiving and expects to continue to receive revenue from research
and development agreements.  As a result, the Company is no longer considered to
be in the development stage.  Included in accumulated deficit is $26,308,655
accumulated during the development stage.


2.  NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

     Net loss per common share is based on net loss for the relevant period
divided by the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding during
the period.  Stock options and common stock issuable upon conversion of warrants
are not reflected as their effect would be antidilutive for both primary and
fully diluted earnings per share computations.


3.  MARKETABLE SECURITIES

     Marketable securities consist of fixed income investments with a maturity
of greater than three months and other highly liquid investments which can be
readily purchased or sold using established markets.  Such securities are
carried at market which approximates cost in 1995 and 1996.


4.  INVENTORY

     Inventory consists primarily of antibodies to be sold to the research
community and is stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on a
first-in-first-out basis.
<PAGE>
 
5.  CONTINGENCIES

     In connection with the merger of Essex Medical Products, Inc. and the
Company, Medarex issued promissory notes to Essex Chemical Corporation ("Essex")
in the principal amount of $100,000, which have been subsequently repaid, and
committed to pay 20% of the Company's net after tax income until a total of
$1,000,000 has been paid.  At the Company's option, this obligation may be
satisfied by the payment of shares of the Company's Common Stock having a fair
market value equal to the amount owed, provided such shares are registered for
sale with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Amounts up to $1,000,000 will
be payable to Essex, based solely on the earnings of the Company, by March 31 of
each year, to the extent of 20% of net after tax earnings of the Company
realized during the preceding fiscal year.

6.  WARRANT REDUCTION OFFER

     On April 18, 1996, the Company commenced its offer to reduce temporarily
the exercise price of each of its Redeemable Warrants from $6.17 to $5.55 per
Warrant (the "Warrant Reduction Offer").  Pursuant to the Warrant Reduction
Offer which expired on May 15, 1996, the holders of 3,882,022 Redeemable
Warrants (approximately 97% of the maximum number of Redeemable Warrants that
could have been exercised) exercised their warrants to purchase approximately
4,534,202 shares of Common Stock, resulting in proceeds of $21,545,222 to the
Company before deducting expenses incurred in connection with the offering.
Including exercises prior and subsequent to the Warrant Reduction Offer,
warrantholders purchased approximately 5,031,910 shares of Common Stock
resulting in total gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $24,174,401
from the exercise of the Redeemable Warrants.

7.  CENTEON RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

     On April 26, 1996, the Company announced that it had entered into a
collaborative arrangement with Centeon, L.L.C. ("Centeon"), a Delaware limited
liability company formed through a joint venture of Hoechst AG and Rhone-Poulenc
Rorer, Inc., to develop and market MDX-33.  This collaboration provides for the
joint development of MDX-33 by the Company and Centeon.  Subject to the terms of
the arrangement, the Company is primarily responsible for product development,
clinical testing through Phase II trials and the manufacture of all product used
in clinical trials.  Centeon will be primarily responsible for the payment of
all expenses associated with Phase I and Phase II clinical trials of MDX-33 to
be conducted by the Company, up to a maximum of $20,000,000.  If such trials are
successfully completed, Centeon will be primarily responsible for Phase III
clinical trials, regulatory approvals, product commercialization and the costs
associated therewith.  In addition, under the terms of the arrangement, Centeon
paid to the Company an up-front fee of $1,000,000 which is included in contract
and license revenue and will pay research and development funding of $900,000
over three years.  Centeon may also provide the Company with up to $10,000,000
of additional funding upon the achievement of certain milestones.
 
     Under the terms of the arrangement, Centeon has an option (the "Option") to
purchase shares of  Common Stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), in an amount equal to $2,000,000, at a premium over the market
price for the Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market for the three day
period commencing one business day prior to the Company's public announcement
that certain milestones have been achieved, subject to a maximum of 20% of the
shares of the Common Stock or voting power outstanding prior to such issuance.
If such milestones have been achieved and Centeon does not elect to exercise the
Option, then Centeon will be required to pay $2,000,000 to the Company.

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

     The Company had approximately $36.2 million in cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities and approximately $1.3 million in a segregated cash
account as of June 30, 1996.  Operating activities consumed $1,871,550 of cash
for the six month period ended June 30, 1996.

     On April 18, 1996, the Company commenced its offer to reduce temporarily
the exercise price of each of its Redeemable Warrants from $6.17 to $5.55 per
Warrant (the "Warrant Reduction Offer").  Pursuant to the Warrant Reduction
Offer which expired on May 15, 1996, the holders of 3,882,022 Redeemable
Warrants (approximately 97% of the maximum number of Redeemable Warrants that
could have been exercised) exercised their warrants to purchase approximately
4,534,202 shares of Common Stock, resulting in proceeds of $21,545,222 to the
Company before deducting expenses incurred in connection with the offering.
Including exercises prior and subsequent to the Warrant Reduction Offer,
warrantholders purchased approximately 5,031,910 shares of Common Stock
resulting in total gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $24,174,401
from the exercise of the Redeemable Warrants.

     On April 26, 1996, the Company announced that it had entered into a
collaborative arrangement with Centeon, L.L.C. ("Centeon"), a Delaware limited
liability company formed through a joint venture of Hoechst AG and Rhone-Poulenc

joint development of MDX-33 by the Company and Centeon.  Subject to the terms of

development funding of $900,000 over three years.  Centeon may also provide the
Company with up to $10,000,000 of additional funding upon the achievement of
certain milestones.

     Under the terms of the arrangement, Centeon has an option (the "Option") to
purchase shares of  Common Stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), in an amount equal to $2,000,000, at a premium over the market
price for the Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market for the three day
period commencing one business day prior to the Company's public announcement
that certain milestones have been achieved, subject to a maximum of 20% of the
shares of the Common Stock or voting power outstanding prior to such issuance.
If such milestones have been achieved and Centeon does not elect to exercise the
Option, then Centeon will be required to pay $2,000,000 to the Company.

     To date, the Company's sources of cash have been the proceeds from the sale
of its securities through public and private placements, sales of its products
for research purposes and technology transfer and license fees.

     The Company's current sources of liquidity are its cash, cash equivalents
and marketable securities, interest and dividends earned on such cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities, sales of its products for research
purposes and contract and licensing revenues.  Management believes that under
existing operating plans its current sources of liquidity will be sufficient to
meet anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 3 years.
<PAGE>
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources (con't)
- ---------------------------------------

     The Company has leased approximately 45,000 square feet of laboratory,
clinical trial production and office space in a modern facility on a research
campus in Annandale, New Jersey, that was developed by Exxon Research and
Engineering Company as its corporate research headquarters. Management believes
that this facility is well suited for clinical-grade production of Bispecific
and monoclonal antibodies as it has in place most utilities required for
clinical-grade production of such antibodies, including a production unit
designed to meet cGMP standards. By leasing this facility and spending modestly
to adapt it, management believes that the Company has preserved a considerable
amount of capital that might otherwise have been used to build a
biopharmaceutical production facility.  As of June 30, 1996, the Company had
commitments for approximately $91,000 of capital expenditures.

     Upon exhaustion of its current cash reserves, the Company's continued
operations will depend on its ability to raise additional funds through equity
or debt financing and/or enter into licensing or joint development agreements,
including collaborative research and development arrangements with large
pharmaceutical companies pursuant to which certain costs associated with the
regulatory approval process for certain of its products would be borne by the
licensees or joint developers.  There can be no assurance that these sales or
financing activities will be successful.


Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996
- ---------------------------------------

     Revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 increased by $968,905,
a 152.2% increase from the six month period ended June 30, 1995.  The increase
is principally due to contract and license revenue of $1,000,000, generated from
the collaborative agreement with Centeon, partially offset by a $12,048 decrease
in research reagent sales volume.

     Cost of sales increased by $1,179 during the first six months of 1996, a
1.9% increase from the comparable period in 1995.

     Research and development expenses increased $470,514 during the first six
months of 1996, a 15.2% increase from the first six months of 1995.  The
increase is principally due to higher personnel costs and clinical trial
expenses.

     General and administrative expenses increased by $69,539 for the first six
months of 1996, a 6.1% increase from the first six months of 1995.  Increases in
personnel costs, partially offset by lower depreciation expense and rent expense
contributed to this increase.

     Interest and dividend income increased by $341,790 for the first six months
of 1996, a 140.6% increase from the same period in 1995, reflecting a higher
average cash balance, primarily as the result of proceeds received from the
Company's Warrant Reduction Offer.
<PAGE>
 
Three months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996
- -----------------------------------------

     Revenue for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 increased by
$873,505, a 238.1% increase from the three month period ended June 30, 1995,
principally reflecting the Centeon contract and license revenue of $1,000,000,
offset by a $21,734 decrease in sales volume of research reagents.

     Cost of sales increased $1,134 during the three month period ending June
30, 1996, a 3.7% increase from the same period of 1995.

       Research and development expenses increased $276,988 during the three
month period ended June 30, 1996, a 17.2% increase from the same period of 1995.
The increase is principally due to increased activity associated with human
clinical trials resulting in higher personnel costs and supply expenses.

     General and administrative expenses increased $77,758 for the period ended
June 30, 1996, a 13.8% increase from the same period of 1995.  The increase is
primarily attributable to higher personnel costs and shareholder relations
expense.

     Interest and dividend income increased $251,323 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996, a 214.3% increase from the same period of 1995, reflecting a
higher average cash balance, primarily as the result of proceeds received from
the Company's Warrant Reduction Offer.

     The Company has incurred and will continue to incur significant costs in
the area of research and development, including pre-clinical and clinical trials
as its products move through the various stages of development.  Administrative
costs are also expected to increase with the increase of administrative
activities and the creation of a marketing organization.  The Company expects
its operating losses to increase at an accelerated rate over the next several
years as the Company expands its clinical trials and product development
efforts.
