                          NOTES TO 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, except as described in Note 2, using the
                  accounting policies described in the summary of Accounting
                  Policies included in the Company's 1996 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 1996 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.           Basis of Presentation

                  Prior to April 1, 1997, the financial statements included the
                  accounts of the Company and Euro-Nocopi S.A. (Euro), the
                  European affiliate of the Company on a consolidated basis.
                  Consolidation was appropriate due to the operational and
                  financial control the Company exercised over Euro.
                  Additionally, the Company held approximately an 18% interest
                  in Euro and warrants permitting it to increase its interest in
                  Euro to 55%. During the second quarter of 1997, the Company
                  ceased to exercise effective control over Euro. The cessation
                  of effective control resulted from a dispute which arose in
                  April 1997 between the Company and Euro under the license
                  agreement between the Company and Euro concerning Euro's
                  contention that it was entitled to a share of certain minimum
                  royalties under a worldwide agreement with a manufacturer who
                  distributes products incorporating the Company's technologies.
                  In an agreement negotiated during the second quarter of 1997
                  and concluded in July 1997, the Company agreed to credit Euro
                  $154,500 as Euro's share of previously collected minimum
                  royalties, the $154,500 to be applied to license fee payments
                  due the Company by Euro through the first quarter of 1998. The
                  Company also agreed to pay Euro 35% of future guaranteed
                  royalties from this manufacturer.

                  The $154,500 settlement has been charged to cost of sales and
                  has been included in the results of operations. The Company
                  also agreed to modify its warrant by extending its term
                  through December 2001 but making it exercisable beginning the
                  earlier of 1) January 1, 2001; 2) in the event of a sale of
                  all or part of Euro; or 3) in the event of a public listing of
                  Euro's shares on a stockmarket. In addition, the Company
                  agreed to defer to January 1, 2001 its right to acquire, under
                  certain conditions, all remaining shares of Euro for shares of
                  the Company. This call right expires December 31, 2001.

                  Additionally, the licensing agreement between the two
                  companies was amended relative to the negotiation of future
                  worldwide licensing contracts and the five directors of Euro
                  who were also Nocopi directors resigned from Euro's Board. As
                  the Company ceased to exercise effective control and the
                  financial information for Euro's second quarter was not made
                  available to the Company, the Company ceased consolidating as
                  of April 1, 1997 and did not apply the equity method of
                  accounting for the threee months ended June 30, 1997. The
                  Company's 18% share of Euro's accumulated loss from inception
                  through March 1997 in excess of the Company's investment,
                  totaling $170,400, has been recorded as a deferred credit on
                  the balance sheet.

Note 3.           Recently Issued Accounting Standards

                  In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
                  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128
                  "Earnings per share." This Statement establishes standards for
                  computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS) and applies
                  to entities with publicly held common stock or potential
                  common stock. This Statement is effective for financial
                  statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997
                  (earlier application is not permitted). This Statement
                  requires restatement of all prior-period EPS data presented.
                  The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any,
                  adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have on its financial
                  statements.

Item 2.

                            NOCOPI TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

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

Basis of Presentation 

         Prior to April 1, 1997, the financial statements included the accounts
of the Company and Euro-Nocopi S.A. (Euro), the European affiliate of the
Company, on a consolidated basis. Consolidation was appropriate due to the
operational and financial control the Company exercised over Euro. Additionally,
the Company held approximately an 18% interest in Euro and warrants permitting
it to increase its interest in Euro to 55%. During the second quarter of 1997,
the Company ceased to exercise effective control over Euro. The cessation of
effective control resulted from a dispute which arose in April 1997 between the
Company and Euro under the license agreement between the Company and Euro
concerning Euro's contention that it was entitled to a share of certain minimum
royalties under a worldwide agreement with a manufacturer who distributes
products incorporating the Company's technologies. In an agreement negotiated
during the second quarter of 1997 and concluded in July 1997, the Company agreed
to credit Euro $154,500 as Euro's share of previously collected minimum
royalties, the $154,500 to be applied to license fee payments due the Company by
Euro through the first quarter of 1998. The Company also agreed to pay Euro 35%
of future guaranteed royalties from this manufacturer. The $154,500 settlement
has been charged to cost of sales and has been included in the results of
operations. The Company also agreed to modify its warrant by extending its term
through December 2001 but making it exercisable beginning the earlier of 1)
January 1, 2001; 2) in the event of a sale of all or part of Euro; 3) in the
event of a public listing of Euro's shares on a stock market. In addition, the
Company agreed to defer to January 1, 2001 its right to acquire, under certain
conditions, all remaining shares of Euro for shares of the Company. This call
right expires December 31, 2001.

         Additionally, the licensing agreement between the two companies was
amended relative to the negotiation of future worldwide licensing contracts and
the five directors of Euro who were also Nocopi directors resigned from Euro's
Board. As the Company ceased to exercise effective control and the financial
information for Euro's second quarter was not made available to the Company, the
Company ceased consolidating as of April 1, 1997 and did not apply the equity
method of accounting for the three months ended June 30, 1997. The Company's 18%
share of Euro's accumulated loss from inception through March 1997 in excess of
the Company's investment, totaling $170,400, has been recorded as a deferred
credit on the balance sheet. 

                                        6

The results of operations for the second quarter of 1997 do not include Euro's
results of operations for that period. Consequently, the revenues and expenses
reported will differ significantly from those reported in the second quarter and
first half of 1996.


Results of Operations

         Revenues for the second quarter of 1997 were $1,232,700 compared to
$936,200 in the second quarter of 1996, an increase of 31%. The increase is
attributable primarily to higher sales of security labels to 3M Corporation in
the second quarter of 1997 compared to the second quarter of 1996 as well as the
sale of ink jet based anti-diversion hardware systems to a new customer in the
second quarter of 1997 partially offset by a decline in licenses, royalties and
fees. The decline in licenses, royalties and fees to $479,700 in the second
quarter of 1997 from $778,400 in the second quarter of 1996 is attributable in
part to the change in accounting for Euro whose revenues are not consolidated in
the second quarter of 1997. In addition, domestic licenses, royalties and fees
declined by approximately $200,000 in the second quarter of 1997 compared to the
second quarter of 1996 due primarily to lower guaranteed license fees from 3M
Corporation and Georgia-Pacific Corporation compared to the second quarter of
1996.

         Revenues for the first half of 1997 increased 14% to $2,065,600 in the
first half of 1997 compared to $1,811,700 in the first half of 1996. The
increase is attributable to the same factors as the quarter-to-quarter change,
that is, increased sales of products, primarily security labels, offset in part
by the exclusion of Euro's second quarter revenues from the statement of
operations as well as an approximate $340,000 reduction in domestic licenses,
royalties and fees principally attributable to lower guaranteed license fees
from 3M and Georgia-Pacific.

         The Company's gross profit declined to $270,700 or 22% of revenues in
the second quarter of 1997 from $673,900 or 72% of revenues in the second
quarter of 1996. The decline in the second quarter of 1997, both in absolute
dollars and as a percentage of sales, is attributable to a change in revenue mix
compared to the second quarter of 1996. Included in 1997's second quarter
revenues are sales of security labels to 3M and an ink-jet based anti-diversion
system. These product sales carry significantly lower gross margins than
revenues derived from licenses, royalties and fees. The gross margin was also
negatively affected by lower license, royalty and fee revenue in the quarter.
Additionally, as agreed in the amended license arrangement with Euro, the
Company recorded a one-time charge to cost of sales totaling $154,500.

         The first half of 1997 gross profit declined to $873,400 or 42% of
revenues from $1,379,200, or 76% of revenues in the first half of 1996. The
decline in gross revenues in the first half of 1997 compared to the first half
of 1996 results from the same factors as those affecting the second quarter.

                                        7
<PAGE>

         Research and development expenses declined to $121,900 for the second
quarter of 1997 compared to $191,700 in the second quarter of 1996 and to
$342,000 in the first half of 1997 versus $396,700 in the first half of 1996.
The second quarter and first half period to period decline results from the
exclusion of Euro's second quarter 1997 costs from the statement of operations.

         Selling expenses declined to $145,500 in the second quarter of 1996
from $351,500 in the second quarter of 1996. For the first six months of 1997,
selling expenses were $480,600 compared to $723,400 in the first half of 1996.
The effect of the deconsolidation of Euro in the second quarter of 1997 was most
profound in selling expenses. Euro's selling expenses in the second quarter and
first half of 1996 were $131,300 and $274,600, respectively. Additionally, the
Company's second quarter and first half selling expenses declined substantially
as a result of fewer sales personnel, lower commissions and lower discretionary
sales promotion expenses as the Company sought to conserve cash.

         General and administrative expenses declined to $264,200 in the second
quarter of 1997 from $281,700 in the second quarter of 1996. The first half 1997
general and administrative expenses were $519,400 compared to $521,300 in the
first half of 1996. The period to period declines resulted from the exclusion of
the general and administrative expenses associated with Euro in the second
quarter of 1997 which are not consolidated effective with the second quarter of
1997, offset in part by higher legal and other professional expenses, costs
associated with the Company's international patent activities and, in the second
quarter of 1997, legal expenses incurred in the Company's restructuring of its
ownership and license arrangements with Euro.

         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 the Notes. Interest income includes interest on
funds invested in the U.S. as well as the investment of funds held by Euro
during the periods that its accounts were included in the Company's financial
statements.

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

         The net loss increased in the second quarter of 1997 to $278,400 from
$34,600 in the second quarter of 1996. For the first six months of 1997, the net
loss was $400,200 compared to $45,400 in the first six months of 1996.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased to $250,000 at June
30, 1997. The Company's consolidated cash and cash equivalent position at
December 31, 1996 was $2,229,200 of which $1,641,200 was held by Euro and
$588,000

                                        8

was held by the Company. The amount held by Euro was available primarily to fund
Euro's operations. As a result of the circumstances requiring that the financial
statements of the Company no longer be consolidated with those of Euro, the cash
position declined by the $1,641,200 held by Euro-Nocopi at December 31, 1996.
The Company's domestic cash position declined to $250,000 at June 30, 1997 from
$588,000 at December 31, 1996. The cash was required primarily to fund
operations over the six month period.

         Current debt obligations represent the reclassification of the
Company's $950,000 Series B 7% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes due
March 31, 1998 into current liabilities.

         The Company has a line of credit with a bank for up to $1 million
secured by a pledge of certain securities, including equity securities, made by
certain directors of the Company. Borrowings under the line of credit may be
limited based on the value of the equity securities pledged. There have been no
borrowings under this line of credit. In June 1997, the Company was notified by
the bank of its decision that requests for advances against the line would be
considered only after consultation with the pledgors of the collateral. There
can be no assurance that requests for borrowings under the line will be honored
by the bank after its consultations with the pledgors of the assets, but, based
on the current market value of the collateral, the Company believes that the
bank would make no more than $600,000 available under the line.

         Without access to the full $1 million line of credit, the Company will
not have sufficient working capital to support its operations and debt service
requirements, specifically the maturing of the $950,000 Series B Notes on March
31, 1998.

         The Company is seeking financing which will allow it to replace the
line of credit with funding at least equal to the $1 million provided by the
line. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in
arranging such financing.

         In addition, the Company's continued liquidity will be dependent on its
ability to refinance the $950,000 aggregate principle amount of the Series B
Notes maturing March 31, 1998 by extending the maturity of the Notes or
converting the principle balance thereof into equity. The Company has not
secured any commitment from any party providing for the extension of such Notes
or their conversion into equity. There can be no assurances that such extension
or conversion will be obtained.


Other Factors That May Affect Future Growth and Stock Price

         The Company's operating results and stock price are adversely affected
by the Company's current illiquidity previously discussed and, in addition, are
dependent upon a number of factors, some of which are beyond the Company's
control. These include:

                                        9

<PAGE>


Uneven Pattern of Quarterly and Annual Operating Results. The Company's
revenues, which are derived primarily from licensing and royalties, are
difficult to forecast due to the long sales cycle for the Company's
technologies, the potential for customer delay or deferral of implementation of
the Company's technologies, the size and timing of inception of individual
license agreements, the success of the Company's licensees and strategic
partners in exploiting the market for the licensed products, modifications of
customer budgets, and uneven patterns of royalty revenue and product orders. As
the Company's revenue base is not substantial, delays in finalizing license
contracts, implementing the technology to initiate the revenue stream and
customer ordering decisions can have a material adverse effect on the Company's
quarterly and annual revenue expectations and, as the Company's operating
expenses are substantially fixed, income expectations will be subject to a
similar adverse outcome.

New Business Opportunities. The Company, with limited research and development
resources, is compelled to develop new technologies which it believes will
enhance and expand its position in the anti-counterfeiting and anti-diversion
marketplace it serves. There can be no assurance that the resources expended in
this effort will generate significant revenues for the Company.

Intellectual Property. The Company relies on a combination of protections
provided under applicable international patent, trademark and trade secret laws.
It also relies on confidentially, non-analysis and licensing agreements to
establish and protect its rights in its proprietary technologies. While the
Company actively attempts to protect these rights, the Company's technologies
could possibly be compromised through reverse engineering or other means. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to protect the basis of its
technologies from discovery by unauthorized third parties, thus adversely
affecting its customer and licensee relationships.

Volatility of Stock Price. The market price for the Company's common stock has
historically experienced significant fluctuations and may continue to do so. The
Company has, since its inception, operated at a loss and has not produced
revenue levels traditionally associated with publicly traded companies. The
Company's common stock is not listed on a national or regional securities
exchange and, consequently, the Company receives limited publicity regarding its
business achievements and prospects nor is it extensively followed by securities
analysts and traders. The market price may be affected by announcements of new
relationships or modifications to existing relationships. The stock prices of
many developing public companies, particularly those with small capitalizations
have experienced wide fluctuations not necessarily related to operating
performance. Such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the
Company's common stock.
