Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. 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. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 1998. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Gliatech Inc. for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1997 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Since commencing operations in 1988, the Company had been a development stage
company. However, due to the introduction of its first product, ADCON(R)-L, in
the United States, which has resulted in significant product sales in the third
quarter of 1998, the Company no longer considers itself a development stage
company.

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


OVERVIEW

The Company is engaged in research, development and commercialization of the
ADCON family of products, which are proprietary, resorbable, carbohydrate
polymer medical devices designed to inhibit surgical scarring and adhesions.
Based on European pivotal clinical studies and other compliance efforts and
submission of data, the Company obtained regulatory clearance to affix CE
Marking on ADCON(R)-L and ADCON(R)-T/N in August 1995 and January 1996,
respectively, thereby allowing ADCON(R)-L and ADCON(R)-T/N to be marketed in the
19 European countries which recognize CE Marking for lumbar disc surgery and
tendon and peripheral nerve surgeries, respectively. ADCON(R)-L and ADCON(R)-T/N
are currently being marketed in 29 countries outside the U.S. through
independent medical device distributors. On May 27, 1998, the Company received
approval to market ADCON(R)-L in the U.S. from the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration ("FDA"). In addition, the Company signed a development and
exclusive license agreement in December 1996 with Chugai for the sale of
ADCON(R)-L and ADCON(R)-T/N in Japan. The Company is also pursuing the
development of small molecule drug candidates for the treatment of several
nervous system disorders, including Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder
("ADHD"), sleep disorders, anxiety and Alzheimer's disease ("AD"). In October
1994, the Company entered into a strategic alliance with Janssen Pharmaceutica,
N.V. of Belgium ("Janssen") to collaborate on the discovery and development of
therapeutic models to treat AD. The Company is currently negotiating to extend
the term of this arrangement.

Historically, the Company's revenues were primarily from contract research
payments relating to its strategic alliance with Janssen. Since June 1998,
however, revenues have primarily consisted of product sales of ADCON(R)-L in the
United States. The Company also receives revenues from product sales of
ADCON(R)-L and ADCON(R)-T/N outside the U.S. and from various government grants
awarded to the Company. Since commencing operations in 1988, the Company had
been a development stage company. However, due to the introduction of its first
product, ADCON(R)-L, in the United States which has resulted in significant
product sales in the third quarter of 1998, the Company no longer considers
itself a development stage company. The Company anticipates that over the next
several years a significant portion of revenue from product sales will be 
derived from its ADCON(R) family of products, primarily ADCON(R)-L. In June
1998, the Company received proceeds of approximately $18.9 million in connection
with the completion of a public offering of 1,725,000 shares of Common Stock.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three and nine months periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.


REVENUES

Total revenues increased 399.2% to $6.2 million in the third quarter of 1998
from $1.2 million in the third quarter of 1997 and 174.5% to $9.7 million in the
first nine months of 1998 from $3.6 million in the first nine months of 1997.
The increase in total revenues is primarily the result of an increase in product
sales, which increased more than tenfold to $5.3 million in the third quarter of
1998 from $402,250 in the third quarter of 1997. This increase in product sales
resulted primarily from the commercialization in the U.S. of the Company's first
product, ADCON(R)-L. ADCON(R)-L was approved for marketing in the U.S. by the
FDA in May 1998. The Company commenced sales of ADCON(R)-L in the U.S. in June
1998.

The Company's government-funded grant revenues increased 85.7% to $186,941 in
the third quarter of 1998 from $100,682 in the third quarter of 1997 and
increased 137.3% to $597,199 in the first nine months of 1998 compared to
$251,704 in the first nine months of 1997. This increase was a result of a
higher level of government funded revenues primarily due to the award in
February 1997 of a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research ("SBIR") Program
two year grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke
("NINDS") for research to evaluate the histamine H3 receptor antagonists. The
increase is also the result of an award in the second quarter of 1998 of two
$97,500 Phase I SBIR Program grants from the National Institute of Health
("NIH") for additional drug development research.


OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

Total operating expenses increased by 133.9% to $6.8 million in the third
quarter of 1998, compared to $2.9 million in the third quarter of 1997, and
increased 61.7% to $15.1 million in the first nine months of 1998 compared to
$9.3 million in the first nine months of 1997. Cost of products sold increased
600.2% to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 1998 compared to $151,658 in the
third quarter of 1997, but decreased, as a percentage of product sales, in the
third quarter of 1998 to 20.1% from 37.7% in the third quarter of 1997. Cost of
products sold increased 267.5% in the first nine months of 1998 to $1.5 million
compared to $415,362 in the first nine months of 1997, but decreased as a
percentage of products sales in the first nine months of 1998 to 22.0% from
38.3% in the first nine months of 1997. The percentage decrease in both the
third quarter and in the first nine months of 1998 were primarily due to: (i)
increased production volumes and (ii) the favorable impact of the unit sales
prices of ADCON(R)-L in the United States.



                                       6

<PAGE>   9




Research and development expenses increased by 75.8 % to $2.7 million in the
third quarter of 1998 from $1.6 million in the third quarter of 1997 and
increased 36.9% to $7.4 million in the first nine months of 1998 from $5.4
million in the first nine months of 1997. This increase was primarily due to: i)
an increase in development expenses for the Company's lead compound for its
cognition modulation program, which will begin a human clinical trial in the
fourth quarter of 1998 and ii) increased clinical research costs associated with
the pilot clinical trial of ADCON(R)-P, which was completed in the third quarter
of 1998.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 157.4% to $2.9 million in
the third quarter of 1998 compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 1997
and increased 77.6% to $5.9 million in the first nine months of 1998 from $3.3
million in the first nine months of 1997. This increase was primarily due to an
increase in the sales and marketing expenses and sales commissions resulting
from the sales and marketing of ADCON(R)-L in the U.S.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 39.6% to $103,490 in the third
quarter of 1998 compared to $74,140 in the third quarter of 1997 and increased
39.2% to $288,829 in the first nine months of 1998 compared to $207,439 in 1997.
The increase was primarily due to increased amortization resulting from
leasehold improvements made in 1997.

INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased to $310,244 in the third quarter of 1998 from
$193,303 in the third quarter of 1997 and decreased to $590,053 in the first
nine months in 1998 from $647,294 in the first nine months in 1997. This
increase in the third quarter is due to carrying higher cash balances due to the
proceeds from the public offering in June 1998. The decrease in the first nine
months was due to lower cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment
balances during the first and second quarters of 1998 as compared to the first
and second quarters of 1997.


NET LOSS

Gliatech's net loss decreased to $311,589 in the third quarter of 1998 compared
to $1.5 million in the third quarter of 1997 and decreased to $4.7 million for
the first nine months of 1998 from $5.1 million in the first nine months of
1997. The decrease in net loss is a result of ADCON(R)-L product sales in the
U.S., offset slightly by an increase in total expenses. The basic and diluted
net loss per common share was $0.03 in the third quarter of 1998, compared to
$0.20 in the third quarter of 1997 and $0.58 in the first nine months of 1998,
compared to $0.70 in the first nine months of 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historically, the Company has financed its operations primarily through the
private placement and public offering of its equity securities, research
contract licensing fees, and, to a lesser extent, through federally sponsored
research grants. In June 1998, the Company raised additional funds through a
public offering of 1,725,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $12.00 per
share, including the exercise of the over-allotment option of 225,000 shares.
The shares were sold through a group




                                       7

of underwriters for whom Cowen & Company, Furman Selz LLC and Vector Securities
International, Inc. acted as managing underwriters. The Company also has
established a $1.5 million line of credit with a bank. As of September 30, 1998,
the Company had no borrowings against the line of credit.

In order to preserve principal and maintain liquidity, the Company's funds are
invested in commercial paper and other short-term investments. As of September
30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the Company's cash and cash equivalents and
short-term investments totaled $25.3 million and $11.5 million, respectively.
The Company expects that its existing capital resources, interest earned
thereon, and product sales will enable the Company to maintain its current and
planned operations at least through mid-2000.

In February 1997, the Company was awarded a Phase II SBIR Program grant, from
NINDS for research evaluating histamine H3 receptor antagonists to treat ADHD.
The grant has a two-year term and may provide as much as $750,000 in funding. If
the Company is successful in other Phase I research, additional Phase II awards
may be sought for funding to aid in further development of pharmaceutical
compounds, however, there is no assurance that such Phase I research will be
successful or that additional funding will be obtained. In addition, in the
second quarter of 1998, the Company was awarded two Phase I SBIR grants for up
to $97,500 each from National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and National
Institute of Mental Health both divisions of the NIH.

The Company does not expect to generate a positive cash flow from operations for
at least the next twelve months due to the substantial cost for
commercialization of its ADCON(R) family of products, additional research and
development cost for ADCON(R)-P (peritoneal cavity), ADCON(R)-A (abdominal
surgery), ADCON(R)-I (implant surgery) and ADCON(R)-C (cardiac surgery) and for
costs related to its Cognition Modulation and Alzheimer's disease programs,
preclinical testing, clinical trials and operating expenses associated with
supporting such activities.

The Company may raise additional funds through additional equity or debt
financing, government grants, future corporate alliances, collaboration
relationships or otherwise. The Company may engage in these capital raising
activities even if it does not have an immediate need for additional capital at
that time. There can be no assurance that any such additional funding will be
available to the Company or, if available, that it will be on acceptable terms.
If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, further dilution to
existing stockholders may result. If the Company seeks to obtain funds through
arrangements with collaborative partners or others, such partners may require
the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies, product
candidates or products that the Company would otherwise seek to develop or
commercialize itself.

YEAR 2000. The Year 2000 issue results from computer programs and systems that
were created to accept only two digit dates. Such systems may not be able to
distinguish 20th century dates from 21st century dates. This could result in
miscalculations and system failures that could inhibit the Company's ability to
engage in normal business activities.

The following discussion of the implications of the Year 2000 issue for the
Company contains numerous forward-looking statements. The cost of the

Company's Year 2000 project and the date upon which the Company plans to
complete its internal modifications are based upon management's best estimates,
which were derived utilizing a number of assumptions of future events, including
the continued availability of internal and external resources, third party
modifications and other factors. Although management believes it will be able to
make the necessary modifications in advance, there can be no guarantee that
these estimates and timetable will be achieved and actual results could differ
materially from those anticipated.

In addition, the Company relies upon the computer systems of certain third
parties such as customers, suppliers and financial institutions. Although the
Company is assessing the readiness of these third parties and preparing
contingency plans, there can be no assurance that the failure of these third
parties to modify their systems in advance of December 31, 1999 would not have a
material adverse effect on the Company.

State of Readiness. In 1998, the Company commenced a program intended to
mitigate and prevent the adverse effect of the Year 2000 issue. This program
consists of the following phases:

          AWARENESS PHASE-development of a detailed strategic approach to
          address the Year 2000 issues;

          ASSESSMENT PHASE-an assessment of all computer systems, software,
          building infrastructure components and equipment with embedded
          technology to identify each item that will require date code
          remediation and an assessment and certification of third parties' Year
          2000 compliance;

          REMEDIATION PHASE-implementation of code enhancements, hardware and
          software upgrades, systems replacements, vendor and customer
          assurances, contingency planning and other associated changes; and

          VALIDATION PHASE-testing of systems for Year 2000 readiness.

The Awareness Phase has been completed. The Company expects the Assessment and
Remediation Phases to be substantially completed by the end of the second
quarter of 1999. The Company's Remediation Phase consists of numerous individual
projects that vary in size, materiality and importance. The Company has
established a Year 2000 project team that is currently reviewing information
technology ("IT") systems and non-IT systems that could be affected by this
issue. The Company believes that its network information systems, including
Network Operating System (NOS) software and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
software have been thoroughly tested as Year 2000 compliant, and should be able
to process year and data information beyond the year 1999. While the manufacture
of the Company's products are not dependent on computer chip driven processes,
any interruption in receipt of supplies, delivery of goods by outside carriers,
or processing of orders by distributors could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, prospects, financial condition or result of operations.
The Company will be communicating its Year 2000 status to all of its existing
customers and vendors by the end of the calendar year 1998. In this
communication, the Company will be requesting that these same customers and
vendors respond with their Year 2000 status. The Company will maintain a
database of customers and vendors who


                                        9

<PAGE>   12




have and have not responded to such inquiry, and the Company will promptly
submit further inquiries to certain of such third parties as business
requirements dictate. However, there can be no assurance that these measures
will prevent any material adverse effect on the operations and business of the
Company if such suppliers and business partners fail to convert their systems
before December 31, 1999.

Costs. The Company expects to primarily utilize internal resources to reprogram,
replace and test its computer systems, software, equipment and building
infrastructure components for Year 2000 modifications. The Company estimates
that Year 2000 expenditures will be less than $150,000 and will be funded by
normal operating cash flow. All Year 2000 expenditures are expensed as incurred
and are not expected to have a material effect on results of operations,
liquidity or capital resources. As of September 30, 1998 approximately $6,000 of
the estimated project cost have been incurred. The remaining costs are expected
to be incurred evenly over the period up through January 31, 2000. These cost
estimates may change as additional remediation and testing efforts progress.

Risks. The Year 2000 issue presents a number of risks and uncertainties that
could affect the Company, including failure of utilities, competition for
skilled personnel and disruption of Company operations due to system failures or
operational failures of third parties. With respect to risks associated with the
Company's computer systems and equipment, management believes that it will be
able to make the necessary modifications and conversions in advance of the Year
2000. With respect to risks associated with the failure of computer systems or
equipment of third parties, the Company could experience a material adverse
impact on its operations if such third parties fail to make timely conversions
or modifications. The most serious impact on the Company operations in this
regard would result if basic services such as telecommunications, electric
power, financial services and other non-IT processes were disrupted.

Contingency Plans. The Company is in the process of developing business
resumption contingency plans specific to the Year 2000. These plans will address
the actions that would be taken if critical business functions cannot be carried
out in the normal manner upon entering the next century due to systems or third
party failures. Management estimates that these contingency plans will be
developed by the end of the second quarter of 1999.

EURO CONVERSION. Commencing January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen countries
(the "Participating Countries") that are members of the European Union are
scheduled to establish a new uniform currency known as the "Euro." The current
currency in the Participating Countries will be phased out during the transition
period commencing January 1, 1999 and ending January 1, 2002. During such
transition period both the Euro and the current currency will be available in
the Participating Countries. Although certain of the Company's products are
being sold in the Participating Countries through independent distributors, the
Company receives revenues from such sales in U.S. dollars. As a result, the
Company does not anticipate that the introduction and use of the Euro will
materially affect the Company's business, prospects, results of operations or
financial condition.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements." When used in this Report, the
words "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "intends" and other predictive,
interpretive and similar expressions are intended to identify such
forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results
of the Company to be different from expectations expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such factors included, but are not limited to,
commercial uncertainty of market acceptance of the Company's ADCON(R) family of
products, delays in product development of ADCON(R) products, other than
ADCON(R)-L, including the timing and content of decisions made by the FDA,
uncertainty due to the early stage of development for the therapeutic programs,
the possible need for additional funding, the ability of the Company to
establish and maintain collaborative arrangements with others, the potential
market size for ADCON(R) products, the ability to renew research collaborations,
the ability of the Company, its customers and vendors to appropriately address
year 2000 issues,


                                       10

<PAGE>   13



the  productivity of distributors of the ADCON(R)  products,  shortages of
supply of ADCON(R) products from the Company's sole manufacturer, the lack of
supply of raw materials for the Company's products, uncertainty of future
profitability, uncertainties related to the Company's proprietary rights in its 
products, the loss of key management, and personnel and technological change.
These statements are based on certain assumptions and analysis made by the
Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends,
current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes
are appropriate in the circumstances. Such statements are subject to a number
of other assumptions, risks, uncertainties, general economic and business
conditions, and the business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be
presented to and pursued by the Company. Prospective investors are cautioned
that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and that
actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in
the forward-looking statements.
