NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A - MERGER WITH CIRCA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. ("CIRCA")
On July 17, 1995, the stockholders of Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the
"Company") and Circa approved the merger in which Circa became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the merger agreement, Circa
stockholders received 0.86 of a share of the Company's common stock for each
Circa share. Accordingly, the Company issued approximately 18.7 million shares
of its common stock for all of the outstanding common shares of Circa. The
merger qualified as a tax-free reorganization and was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests. The Company's financial statements have been
retroactively restated to include the results of Circa for all periods
presented.
NOTE B - GENERAL
The unaudited, consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 1996 and for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, as well as related notes should
be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1995.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments), necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as
of March 31, 1996, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. The results of operations and cash flows
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations or cash flows which may be reported for the remainder of
1996. The accounting policies followed during the three months ended March 31,
1996 were the same as those disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Introductory note: The following discussion gives effect to the merger between
the Company and Circa as more fully described in Note A to the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company cautions readers that certain important factors may affect the
Company's actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from
any forward-looking statements which may be deemed to have been made in this
Report, or which are otherwise made by or on behalf of the Company. Such
factors include, but are not limited to, changing market conditions; the
availability and cost of raw materials; the impact of competitive products and
pricing; the timely development, FDA approval and market acceptance of the
Company's products, the products producing royalties for the Company and the
products being developed and marketed by the Company's joint ventures; and
other risks detailed herein or detailed from time to time in the Company's
Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were $45.5 million compared
to $34.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 1995, an increase of
$11.4 million or 33.5%. The product sales component of revenues increased
$10.6 million or 36.8% in the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the first
quarter of 1995. The royalty income component of revenues increased $0.8
million or 15.1% when compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995. The
increase in product sales was due to a combination of increased sales of the
Company's core products (defined as those products available in the marketplace
for greater than one year) and the successful introduction of five new products
(defined as those products introduced into the marketplace within the last
twelve months), subsequent to March 31, 1995. Net sales of new products for
the three months ended March 31, 1996 amounted to $9.7 million or 24.5% of
total product sales. The increase in royalty income was due to increased
prescriptions written for Dilacor XR(R) during the three months ended March 31,
1996, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995. The level of
product sales and royalty income during the first quarter may not be indicative
of future sales and royalties during the remainder of 1996.
Cost of revenues increased $4.0 million to $18.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1996, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1995.
This increase was attributable to the increased product sales in the first
quarter of 1996. Gross profit margins increased to 52.7% in the three months
ended March 31, 1996 from 49.1% in the three months ended March 31, 1995.
This increase was due primarily to the higher than average gross profit
margins earned on certain new products sold during the first quarter of 1996.

<PAGE> 10
WATSON PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
Research and development expenses decreased by $0.3 million or 6.6% to $4.5
million for the first quarter of 1996. The Company continues to integrate the
product research and development activities of Circa and Watson following the
July 1995 merger. The level of research and development expenses incurred
during the first quarter may not be indicative of future research and
development expenses during the remainder of 1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 1.5% to $4.3 million
when compared to the first quarter of 1995, but decreased as a percentage of
revenues from 12.3% to 9.4%. Although selling, general and administrative
spending has increased in support of the Company's growth, the growth of
revenues has outpaced the growth of these expenses.
The Company's equity in earnings from joint ventures was generated primarily
from its 50% ownership of Somerset Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Total earnings from
joint ventures decreased by $0.6 million or 10.9% to $4.6 million, as compared
to the first quarter of 1995. This decrease was due in part to Somerset's
increased research and development expenses. In addition, the Company's
increased ownership percentage of ANCIRC (as described in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995), and ANCIRC's
increased research and development activities have contributed to lower joint
venture earnings in the first quarter of 1996. ANCIRC, which conducts
research in the area of controlled-release technology, is a joint venture 50%
owned by the Company and 50% owned by Andrx Corporation. Prior to the October
1995 amendment of its joint venture agreement with Andrx, the Company owned 40%
of ANCIRC. Management anticipates the earnings from joint ventures for the
balance of 1996 will be consistent, on a quarterly basis, with the earnings
from joint ventures in the first quarter of 1996 and slightly lower than joint
venture earnings achieved during 1995.
Investment and other income increased by $0.8 million during the first quarter
of 1996. This increase was primarily due to rising interest rates and a larger
base of invested cash during the three months ended March 31, 1996.
The provision for income taxes increased by $3.3 million in 1996, as compared
to 1995. The Company's effective income tax rate increased from 25.9% in 1995
to 31.0% in 1996, due primarily to reduced federal and state income tax
credits available in 1996.
Net income increased by $4.6 million or 37.1% in the first quarter of 1996 as
compared to 1995. This increase was due primarily to the increased revenues
and gross profit margins the Company experienced in the three months ended
March 31, 1996. Earnings per share increased from $0.34 to $0.45 in the first
quarter of 1996 as compared to 1995, on an increase of approximately 0.9
million weighted average common and common equivalent shares outstanding.

WATSON PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Company's cash and marketable
securities increased by $16.6 million to $134.9 million. Cash flows from
operations provided the majority of this increase, supplemented by proceeds
from the exercise of stock options, offset by purchases of property and
equipment and net purchases of marketable securities.
Working capital increased from $168.8 million at December 31, 1995 to $188.9
million at March 31, 1996. The largest components of this increase were the
increase in inventories ($5.6 million), the decrease in accounts payable and
accrued expenses ($4.6 million), the decrease in deferred tax assets ($3.7
million) and the increase in cash and cash equivalents ($13.4 million). The
Company believes that current cash resources, future operating cash flows and
funds available under a bank credit agreement will be sufficient to fund its
current and anticipated working capital needs.
The Company regularly reviews potential opportunities to acquire or invest in
technologies, products or product rights. The Company also regularly reviews
potential acquisitions, investments or combinations involving businesses
compatible with its existing business. The Company could use sources other
than cash, such as the issuance of debt or equity securities, to finance any
such acquisition or investment. If such an acquisition or investment was
completed, the Company's operating results and financial condition could change
materially in future periods.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is involved in various disputes and litigation matters
which arise in the ordinary course of business. The litigation process is
inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of these disputes
and lawsuits may adversely effect the Company. Management believes, however,
that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse
impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. There
have been no material developments in any legal matter since the filing of the
Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as noted below.
In October 1995, a putative class action complaint captioned Jimmy
Jackson v. Circa Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., was filed against Circa,
Lawrence Raisfeld and Robert Shulman, former presidents of Circa, and Roger
Jordan, president of Vitarine Pharmaceuticals, in the Circuit Court of
Tallapoosa County, Alabama. See the discussion under Legal Proceedings -
Pending Litigation in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995. On April 26, 1996, the Circuit Court issued an order
dismissing the action as to Messrs. Raisfeld, Shulman and Jordan, but
certifying the action as a class action with regard to Circa. Circa intends to
appeal the Circuit Court's decision to the Supreme Court of Alabama, and to
otherwise vigorously defend this action.
