3.   BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company operates in two business segments, biopharmaceuticals and
diagnostics. The biopharmaceutical business is engaged in research and
development directed towards drugs that treat human disease. Headquarters for
the biopharmaceutical business is integrated with the corporate headquarters in
Redwood City, California. The diagnostics business primarily sells tests for
detection of infectious diseases. The diagnostics' manufacturing headquarters
are located in Singapore and the principal sales office is based in Switzerland.

Revenues from external customers for the biopharmaceutical segment are reported
as contract revenues on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and
revenues from external customers for the diagnostics segment are reported as
product sales. For the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
biopharmaceutical operating loss was $(2,791,000) and $(3,161,000),
respectively, and diagnostics operating income/(loss) was $24,000 and $(79,000),
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, biopharmaceutical
operating loss was $(5,149,000) and $(6,250,000), respectively, and diagnostics
operating income/(loss) was $55,000 and $(201,000), respectively.

4.   CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No.
130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income
and its components; however, the adoption of this Statement has no impact on the
Company's net income or shareholders' equity. SFAS No. 130 requires, among other
things, unrealized gains or losses on the Company's foreign currency translation
adjustments to be included in comprehensive income or loss. For the three months
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company's comprehensive loss amounted to
$(676,000) and $(2,977,000), respectively, and for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, the Company's comprehensive loss amounted to $(2,754,000) and
$(6,041,000), respectively.


5.   INVESTMENT IN GENELABS BIOTECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

During the second quarter of 1998, through two separate events the Company
reduced its ownership interest in its Taiwan based affiliate, Genelabs
Biotechnology Co., Ltd. ("GBL"). The first reduction occurred when GBL closed an
equity financing in which Genelabs chose not to invest additional cash, reducing
the Company's holdings in GBL from 40% to 30%. The second reduction occurred
when Genelabs sold a portion of its shares in GBL, reducing the Company's
holdings in GBL to 16%. Prior to the sale of a portion of this investment,
Genelabs recorded its relative share of GBL's operating results as equity income
or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. With the ownership
reduction to less than 20%, Genelabs now accounts for this investment at the
lower of cost or market instead of using the equity method.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

All statements in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations that are not historical are forward-looking statements
which involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited
to, those statements concerning the commencement and completion of clinical
trials and the announcement of trial data results, the Company's strategic
plans, anticipated expenditures and the timing and need for additional funds.
Among the factors that could cause actual results of the Company's activities to
differ materially are product non-approval or delays by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration and foreign regulatory authorities, product development,
manufacturing and market acceptance risks, the impact of competitive products,
pricing and intellectual property rights, the results of current and future
licensing and other collaborative relationships and other factors and risks
detailed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on
Form 10-K and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company disclaims any obligation to update these statements for subsequent
events.

OVERVIEW

Genelabs Technologies, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Genelabs" or the
"Company") is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery of small
molecule drugs that act by binding to DNA or RNA to regulate gene expression or
inactivate pathogens. The Company's drug discovery program is based on an
integrated platform of technologies that encompass genomics, transcription
biology, structure-biased combinatorial chemistry, high-throughput screening
with proprietary assays, and several proprietary validation and characterization
assays. The Company's clinical development efforts are focused on its lead
compound, GL701, which is in Phase III clinical trials as a new therapy for
systemic lupus erythematosus ("SLE").

The Company conducts its diagnostic business through its wholly-owned subsidiary
Genelabs Diagnostics (Pte.) Ltd. ("GLD"), located in Singapore, which sells
diagnostic tests for infectious diseases primarily in Europe and Asia. In
addition, Genelabs has an investment in a Taiwan-based pharmaceutical company,
Genelabs Biotechnology Co., Ltd. ("GBL").

The Company expects to continue to invest in biopharmaceutical product research
and development. Revenue from the sale of therapeutic products is not expected
until the launch of its first product, which is not expected to occur for
several years, if at all. The Company has several collaborations and is seeking
additional collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies for some of its
technologies to maximize its profitability for products that may result from
those technologies and to obtain funding for a portion of its research and
development expenses. However, Genelabs expects to continue to incur operating
losses for at least the next several years.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues
Total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 were $3.5 million, compared
to $3.2 million for the same period in 1997. For the six months ended June 30,
1998, total revenues were $7.5 million compared to $6.6 million for the same
period in 1997. Total revenues include both diagnostic product sales and
contract revenue.

Diagnostic product sales were $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998,
compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 1997. For the six months ended
June 30, 1998, diagnostic product sales were $4.1 million compared to $5.0
million for the same period in 1997. The decrease in diagnostic product sales
for both the three and six month periods occurred in Europe and Asia for the
Company's western blot products and rapid tests.


                                       7

<PAGE>   8

Contract revenues were $1.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998,
compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 1997. For the six months ended
June 30, 1998, contract revenues were $3.4 million compared to $1.6 million for
the same period in 1997. Contract revenues include licensing, milestone,
research and development payments and government grants. The increase in
contract revenues for both the three and six month periods of 1998, compared to
the same periods in 1997, was primarily due to recognition of revenue under a
grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ("DARPA"). Contract
revenues recognized in the future will be dependent in part upon the
continuation of existing corporate collaborations and this grant, achievement of
milestones under existing corporate collaborations and establishment of new
research, development and/or licensing agreements.

Cost of Product Sales
Cost of product sales were $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998,
compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 1997. Gross margins increased to
48% for the second quarter of 1998 from 41% for the same period a year ago. For
the six months ended June 30, 1998, cost of product sales were $2.2 million
compared to $3.1 million for the same period in 1997. Gross margins increased to
47% for the first six months of 1998 from 39% for the same period a year ago.
The increase in gross margins was primarily due to an increase in the proportion
of higher margin product sales and higher production yields than that of the
previous year.

Research and Development Expenses
The Company's research and development expenses were $3.3 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1998, compared to $2.8 million for the same period in
1997. For the first six months of 1997, research and development expenses were
$6.4 million compared to $5.6 million for the same period in 1997. The increases
were primarily due to additional expenditures as the Company expanded its drug
discovery research programs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.0 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998, compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 1997. For
the first six months of 1997, selling, general and administrative expenses were
$4.0 million compared to $4.3 million for the same period in 1997. The Company
presently anticipates that further reductions are not likely in the near future.

Gain on Sale of Investment
During the second quarter of 1998, Genelabs sold a portion of its investment in
GBL for net proceeds of $4.3 million, resulting in a gain of $1.6 million.

Net Loss
The Company has operated at a loss since its inception and had an accumulated
deficit of $127.1 million as of June 30, 1998. The net loss was $1.0 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998, compared to $3.0 million for the same
period in 1997. For the first six months of 1998, the net loss was $3.2 million
compared to $6.0 million for the same period in 1997. The gain on the sale of
shares in GBL was a major factor in the reduced net loss for both the three and
six month periods ending June 30, 1998 compared to the same periods in 1997.
Increased contract revenues also contributed significantly to the reduced net
loss for both periods, despite increased spending on research and development.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balances
totaling $20.3 million at June 30, 1998, compared to $21.1 million at December
31, 1997. During the six months ended June 30, 1998, Genelabs used $4.4 million
to fund operations as the Company expanded its drug discovery research and
continued development of GL701 for SLE. This use of cash was offset by receipt
of $4.3 million from the 


                                       8

<PAGE>   9

sale of shares in GBL. Purchases of capital equipment for drug discovery
research also contributed to the use of cash during the period ended June 30,
1998.

The Company has funded its operations since inception primarily through public
and private offerings of its common stock, private offerings of its preferred
stock, contract revenues and product sales. The Company has no bank debt or open
credit lines. Genelabs expects to incur substantial additional costs, including
costs for clinical trials for products currently under development and costs for
further research on drug discovery. The amount of the additional costs, as well
as increased expenditures necessary for working capital and capital
requirements, will depend on numerous factors including the timing and outcome
of any regulatory actions related to the Company's products. In addition,
funding requirements will depend on the progress of the Company's research and
development programs as well as its ability to establish and maintain
collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies to fund these programs.

The Company anticipates that its current resources and expected revenues from
existing collaborative agreements will enable it to maintain its current and
planned operations at least through 1999. The Company anticipates realizing a
net loss at least until 2000, and profitability thereafter is subject to
significant uncertainty. There can be no assurance that revenues from product
sales or royalties or from other sources will be sufficient to fund operations
or that the Company will achieve profitability or positive cash flow. Additional
financing may be required to fund the Company's continuing operations and
research and development activities in the form of debt or equity securities or
bank financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available
on acceptable terms, if at all. The unavailability of such financing could delay
or prevent the development, testing, regulatory approval, manufacturing or
marketing of some or all of the Company's products and technologies and could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.

CERTAIN BUSINESS RISKS

Genelabs' technology and product candidates are at an early stage of
development. The Company has experienced significant operating losses since its
inception and expects to incur significant losses over the next several years.
The Company's technologies, including the DNA and RNA-binding technologies, are
in many cases new and still under development. These approaches have not yet
been proven to have a therapeutic effect. There can be no assurance that these
technologies or any of the Company's product candidates resulting therefrom will
be successfully developed. All of Genelabs' proposed therapeutic products,
including GL701 for the treatment of SLE, are in research or development and
will require substantial additional research and development efforts prior to
any commercial use, including extensive clinical testing as well as potentially
lengthy regulatory approval. There can be no assurance that any of these
therapeutic products or others resulting from Genelabs' research programs will
be successfully developed, prove to be safe and efficacious at each stage of
clinical trials, meet applicable regulatory standards, be capable of being
produced in commercial quantities at reasonable costs or be successfully
marketed.

The active ingredient in GL701 for the treatment of SLE is
dehydroepiandrosterone ("DHEA"). DHEA is currently being marketed by others as a
dietary supplement. The Company believes that DHEA is a drug that should be
subject to regulation and approval by the FDA. The Company further believes that
in a few instances these supplements do not contain true DHEA, but instead
contain related substances that are not biologically equivalent. The Company has
submitted documentation to the FDA requesting clarification of DHEA's status as
a drug and removal from the market as a dietary supplement. However, to date the
FDA has taken no action to limit or regulate the sale of these dietary
supplements, and no assurance can be given as to the willingness or ability of
the FDA to do so in the future. In the event that clinical trials for GL701 are
promising and the drug candidate receives FDA marketing approval, the concurrent
sale of these dietary 


                                       9

<PAGE>   10

supplements could adversely affect the market for or the selling price of GL701.
While the Company has obtained U.S. patents relating to the use of GL701 to
treat SLE and reduce steroid dose in SLE patients, Genelabs is unable to obtain
patent protection for the compound itself.

The Company has no internal manufacturing capabilities for pharmaceutical
products and is entirely dependent on contract manufacturers to manufacture
clinical and, if successfully developed, commercial-scale quantities of GL701
pursuant to supply agreements. There can be no assurance that these third party
manufacturers will continue to meet FDA or product specification standards or
that the Company's manufacturing requirements can be met in a consistent and
timely manner. In addition, the Company has only limited sales, marketing and
distribution capabilities. If the Company successfully develops any new
products, Genelabs must either rely on large pharmaceutical companies to market
such products or must develop a marketing and sales force with technical
expertise and supporting distribution capability in order to market such
products directly. Also inherent in the Company's stage of development is a
range of additional risks, including competition, uncertainties regarding
protection of patents and proprietary rights and the possibility of infringement
of the proprietary rights of others, government regulation, and uncertainties
regarding health care reform.
