REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Saliva Diagnostic Systems, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Saliva
Diagnostic Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Saliva Diagnostic
Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the results
of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses and significant
capital requirements raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

SALIVA DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business - The Company is primarily engaged in the
development, manufacture and marketing of rapid immunoassays for use in the
detection of infectious diseases and other conditions. The Company has also
developed and distributes medical specimen collection devices.
Principles of Consolidation - The financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company periodically assesses the
recoverability of the carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including
intangible assets. A loss is recognized when expected undiscounted future
cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. The impairment
loss is the difference by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
fair value. As a result of its review, the Company wrote-off goodwill at
December 31, 1996 in the amount of $540,000.
Stock-Based Compensation - The Company has adopted the disclosure-only
provisions of SFAS No. 123, which retains the original accounting prescribed
by APB Opinion No. 25. As a result, options granted at fair value will not
result in charges to earnings. Disclosures are made, however, of compensation
costs determined under SFAS No. 123's fair value methodology.
Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market
determined on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated at cost.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method based upon the estimated
useful life of the asset. Useful lives are generally as follows;
Office furniture & equipment 5 to 7 years
Machinery and Equipment 7 years
Exhibits 7 years
Vehicles 5 years
Patents and Trademarks - The costs of patents and trademarks are being
amortized on the straight line method over a 17 year life.
Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of companies acquired
over the fair value of their net assets at the date of acquisition and is
being amortized on the straight-line method over ten years.
Product Liability - The Company has not established any allowance for product
liability at present because of the limited distribution of its product and
limited history which reflect no instance of problems with liability.
Income Taxes - The Company utilizes the asset and liability approach for
financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. If it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be
realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
F-6
<PAGE>
SALIVA DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
Loss Per Share - Loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the periods.
Common share equivalents are not included as they are anti-dilutive.
Revenues - The Company derived revenues from two sources: sale of product and
licensing. Revenues are recognized as the service or product has been
delivered.
Research and Development - Research and development expenditures include
those costs associated with the Company's own on-going research and
development activities. All research and development costs are expensed as
incurred.
The Company has entered into various informal arrangements with certain
laboratories/manufacturers of assay kits whereby these
laboratories/manufacturers will share certain unspecified costs of research
and development. However, the Company has no obligation to perform research
and development for these entities.
Currency Fluctuations - Foreign currency transactions and financial
statements are to be translated into U.S. dollars at current rates, except
that revenues, costs and expenses are translated at average current rates
during each reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are
recorded directly into a separate component of stockholders' equity. Gains
and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, which are
insignificant, are included in income currently.
Reclassifications - Certain 1995 balances have been reclassified to conform
with the current year's presentation.
2. GOING CONCERN
Significant Operating Losses - Accumulated Deficit - The Company has incurred
significant operating losses since its inception, resulting in an accumulated
deficit of $21,914,246 and $16,761,847, at December 31, 1996 and December 31,
1995, respectively. Such losses are expected to continue through 1997 and
until such time, if ever, as the Company is able to attain sales levels
sufficient to support its operations.
Significant Capital Requirements - Need for Additional Financing - The
Company's capital requirements have been and will continue to be significant.
The Company has been dependent on private placements of its debt and equity
securities and on a public offering of securities in March 1993 to fund such
requirements. The Company is dependent upon its other efforts to raise
capital resources, including proceeds received from the exercise of Warrants
to finance the cost of manufacturing, marketing and conducting clinical
trials and submissions for FDA approval of its products and continuing the
design and development of the Company's new products which utilize its rapid
testing format. Marketing, manufacturing and clinical testing may require
capital resources substantially greater than the resources currently
available to the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to obtain the additional capital resources necessary to permit the
Company to implement or continue its programs. The Company has no current
arrangements with respect to, or sources of, additional financing and there
can be no assurance that such financing will be available on commercially
reasonable terms or at all. It is not anticipated that any of the officers,
directors or shareholders of the Company will provide any portion of the
Company's future financing requirements. (See Note 11).
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern.
3. ACQUISITIONS
On September 30, 1995, the Company purchased the minority interest in its 90%
owned subsidiary, Saliva Diagnostic Systems (Asia) Ltd. and the minority
interest in Asia's 83% owned subsidiary. The Company issued 350,000 shares of
its common stock valued at $500,000 to a director/stockholder of the foreign
subsidiaries and
F-7
<PAGE>
SALIVA DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
100,000 shares to unrelated stockholder valued at $100,000. The assets
acquired were valued at fair market value based on the estimates of the
management of the Company which approximate the adjusted fair market value of
the shares issued.
The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and resulted in an excess of
purchase price over net assets acquired of $600,000. Amortization of goodwill
amounted to $45,000 in 1996 and $15,000 in 1995. At December 31, 1996, the
Company assessed the recoverability of the Goodwill that resulted to the
write-off of the Goodwill in the amount of $540,000.
Management of the Company has reviewed the need for the Singapore operations
as were originally anticipated and have concluded that use of this location
as their primary manufacturing source is no longer required and as such have
deemed it appropriate to write off the remaining Goodwill associated with
this location.
4. INVENTORIES
Inventories consisted of the following at December 31, 1996 and 1995:

6. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Increase in Authorized Capital Stock - On February 20, 1997, the stockholders
of the Company approved an amendment to the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of stock from
25,000,000 to 33,000,000 shares.

SALIVA DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, CONTINUED
Public Offering - In March 1993 the Company closed a public offering in which
it sold 1,300,000 shares of its common stock at $6.00 per share and 1,380,000
warrants to purchase 1,380,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $7.20
per share, at $.10 per warrant. The Company received net proceeds of
$6,364,630 after expenses related to the offering of $1,573,490. The warrants
have been extended to June 30, 1997 and the exercise price has been reduced
from $7.20 to $3.00 per share.
The Company also sold for $120 to the underwriter a five-year warrant to
purchase up to 120,000 shares of common stock at $9 per share, exercisable
for four years commencing March 3, 1995 at a price of 110% of the public
offering price, as adjusted, of the common stock. During 1995, the
underwriter exercised a portion of its warrants and purchased 180,462 shares
for an aggregate amount of $270,693. During 1996, the underwriter exercised
the remaining warrants and purchased 756,361 shares at $1.00 per share.
During 1996, the Company granted new warrants to the underwriter to purchase
1,000,000 shares of common stock at $1.00 per share, all of which have been
exercised by the underwriter in 1996.
Note Receivable Related to Sale of Stock - In January 1992 the Company sold
to its President, who resigned in December 1996, 366,912 shares of common
stock for $92,970. The officer paid $9,145 and issued a note to the Company
for $83,825, payable in three years with interest of 6% per annum. These
shares were considered outstanding for all periods in the calculation of
earnings per share. The note which was originally due December 1994 was
extended until December 1995. In December 1995, the Company extended the note
for another year (see Note 8).
Convertible Debentures - During 1992, the Company sold privately $630,000 of
its 8% convertible debentures payable in May 1994 to various investors,
including $25,000 to an affiliate of the Company. These debentures can be
converted into the Company's common stock at a rate of $7.00 per share. In
May 1994 certain debenture holders converted $580,000 principal amount of
debentures into an aggregate of 580,000 shares of common stock. In November
1995, the Company repaid $25,000 principal amount of debentures including all
accrued and unpaid interest. In January 1996, the Company repaid the
remaining $25,000 debenture including all accrued and unpaid interest.
The Company raised $75,000 and $324,500 in 1993 and 1994, respectively, in a
combination of common shares, non-negotiable two year 8% convertible
debentures convertible at a rate of $2.00 per share after one year from the
date of issuance and three year warrant to purchase additional shares of

Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation". Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for the
stock options. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock options been
determined based on the fair value at the grant date for options granted in

Net loss - pro forma $ (5,518,599) $ (5,325,580)
Loss per common share - as reported $ (0.26) $ (0.46)
Loss per common share - pro forma $ (0.27) $ (0.54)
