                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

Note 1.           Financial Statements

                  The accompanying interim financial statements have been
                  prepared by the Company without audit. These statements
                  include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
                  adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair
                  presentation of the statements and have been prepared on a
                  consistent basis using the accounting policies described in
                  the summary of Accounting Policies included in the Company's
                  1995 Annual Report. Certain information and footnote
                  disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
                  in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
                  have been condensed or omitted. The Notes to Financial
                  Statements included in the 1995 Annual Report should be read
                  in conjunction with the accompanying interim financial
                  statements. The interim operating results are not necessarily
                  indicative of the operating results expected for the full
                  year.

Note 2.           Accounting Changes

                  Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted the provisions
                  of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
                  "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
                  Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed" (SFAS 121). SFAS 121
                  requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
                  intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
                  changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
                  the asset may not be recoverable. The adoption of SFAS 121 did
                  not have a material effect on the Company's financial
                  position.

                  Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted the
                  disclosure-only approach of Statement of Financial Accounting
                  Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation"
                  (SFAS 123). SFAS 123 encourages employers to account for stock
                  compensation awards based on their fair value on their date of
                  grant. Entities may choose not to apply the new accounting
                  method but instead, disclose in the notes to the financial
                  statements the pro forma effects on net income and earnings
                  per share as if the new method had been applied.

Item 2.
                            NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

                      Management's Discussion and Analysis
                of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

         Revenues for the first quarter of 1996 increased 34% to $875,500 from
$653,200 in the first quarter of 1995. The increase is attributable to revenue
from licensees and end-user customers signed in the latter half of 1995 as well
as increased revenues from those signed earlier. The continuing financial losses
from product counterfeiting and product diversion experienced by domestic and
international businesses and the ability to combat these losses using
technologies such as those offered by the Company continue to provide the
Company with opportunities to increase its revenue base.

         The Company's gross profit increased to $705,300 in the first quarter
of 1996 compared to $556,500 in the first quarter of 1995 reflecting the
increase in license and royalty revenues which carry a low level of direct
costs.

         Research and development expenses increased to $205,000 in the first
quarter of 1996 from $184,500 in the first quarter of 1995 resulting principally
from a staff addition in late 1995.

         Sales and marketing expenses were $371,900 in the first quarter of 1996
compared to $439,700 in the first quarter of 1995. The decrease is attributable
to lower staffing levels in the U.S. as well as modified compensation
arrangements with certain sales employees and sales agents. The Company plans to
increase its sales staff in future quarters to take advantage of newly developed
technologies which the Company believes to be best marketed by its own sales
persons as compared to licensees.

         General and administrative expenses increased to $239,600 in the first
quarter of 1996 from $220,900 in the first quarter of 1995 primarily due to
increased expenses incurred by Euro-Nocopi S.A.

         Other income (expenses) include interest on the Series B 7%
Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes issued in May 1993 and amortization of
debt issue costs related to these Notes. The decrease in interest expense and
debt amortization costs in the first quarter of 1996 reflects the conversion of
some of these notes into common stock during 1995. Interest income includes
interest on funds invested in the U.S. as well as the investment of funds raised
in the 1994 Euro-Nocopi S.A. private placement.

         Ownership interest of others in consolidated entity represents the
proportionate share in the loss of Euro-Nocopi S.A. attributable to the 82%
ownership interest of the outside shareholders of the company.

         The consolidated net loss declined in the first quarter of 1996 to
$10,800 from $168,800 in the first quarter of 1995. The improvement is primarily
attributable to the U.S. revenue increases and reductions in domestic overhead
expenses compared to the first quarter of 1995.

                                        5

The Company's U.S. operations recorded an operating profit of $18,200 in the
first quarter of 1996, its third consecutive quarter of profitability.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's consolidated cash and temporary cash investment position
decreased to $2,835,800 at March 31, 1996 from $2,982,100 at December 31, 1995.
Included in the March 31, 1996 balance is $1,989,900 held by Euro-Nocopi S.A.
which is available only to fund Euro-Nocopi's operations. At December 31, 1995,
the Euro-Nocopi cash balance was $2,075,000. The decrease during the quarter is
principally attributable to funds required to support Euro-Nocopi's operations
during the quarter.

         The Company's domestic cash position decreased to $845,900 at March 31,
1996 from $907,100 at December 31, 1995. The decrease results primarily from
payments related to the acquisition of ink production equipment received in late
1995 and incentive compensation paid for the achievement of the 1995 U.S.
business plan.

         The Company believes that it has sufficient working capital and
available credit to support its consolidated operations.

         The Company's operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in a
developing business enterprise. The likelihood of success must be considered in
light of problems, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered
in connection with an emerging business and the development of new technologies.
