                                  (UNAUDITED)
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    During August 1996, Ultrafem, Inc. (the "Company" or "Ultrafem") began
selling the Company's product, INSTEAD-Registered Trademark-. Accordingly, as of
July 1, 1996, the Company is considered an operating entity rather than a
development stage enterprise.
 
    The balance sheet as at March 31, 1997, and the statements of operations and
cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been prepared
by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods
presented. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform with the current
presentation.
 
    MARKETING COSTS--Marketing costs are expensed the first time the
advertisement or promotion takes place.
 
    REVENUE RECOGNITION--Revenue is recognized upon shipment of merchandise.
 
    CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS--Capitalized interest is included in construction
in progress and netted against interest expense.
 
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD
 
    In February 1997, The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share, which establishes
new standards for computing and presenting net income per share and replaces the
standards previously found in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15,
Earnings Per Share. The Company will begin reporting net income (loss) per share
according to this new standard in the second quarter of fiscal 1998. The Company
does not expect the implementation of SFAS No. 128 regarding the restatement of
prior periods net loss per share to have a material effect on the Company's
computation.

a broader range of options to protect their reproductive health. The Company's
business strategy is to develop, manufacture and market proprietary products
based on its patented SoftCup-Registered Trademark- Technology directed at high
potential, underserved segments of the women's health care market.
 
    The Company's activities during the nine months ended March 31, 1997 were
focused on the launch of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-, which commenced in
August 1996 and the expansion of the distribution of
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-. The lead market for the initial rollout was in
the Pacific Northwest, a region which the Company estimates represents
approximately 8% of U.S. households and includes the major markets of San
Francisco, Seattle and Portland. Within the Pacific Northwest, food and drug
accounts overall dollar share of the tampon category for the twelve weeks ended
March 29, 1997 was 5.3%, as measured by A.C. Nielsen, versus 2.5% for the twelve
weeks ended December 28, 1996.
 
    During the third quarter, the Company solidified plans to launch into the
second wave of its rollout. The second wave expansion geography completes the
Western United States and includes Southern California, Colorado, Montana, New
Mexico, Nevada, Wyoming, Hawaii, Alaska, Arizona and Utah. This launch commenced
on April 1, 1997, bringing INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- into markets which the
Company estimates represents 25% of United States households. The Company has
firm commitments from retail accounts in the rollout geography that represent
90% of all commodity volume in the drug class of trade, and 80% of the all
commodity volume within the food class of trade.
 
    During the third quarter, the Company began shipping
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- to both Target and Walgreens on a national basis,
totaling over 3,000 stores. This commitment from two of the nation's premier
retailers, with a combined market reach of 75% of the United States, will give
Ultrafem the opportunity to leverage interest from national media and provide a
purchase location for the millions of women who reside outside the lead market
geography.
 
    During the nine months ended March 31, 1997, the Company continued marketing
and advertising activities for the first two waves of the rollout to support the
launch of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- directed toward the consumer audiences
and the retail trade. These activities were centered on generating trial and
awareness of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-. A customized research study
conducted in the quarter ended December 31, 1996, showed a 62% intent to convert
among consumers who responded to a consumer program offering, with 34% rating
themselves "definitely will convert" and 28% rating themselves "probably will
convert". A follow-up survey with the same population was conducted in the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 which showed 32% had already purchased
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- with another 32% stating they definitely or
probably intended to purchase.
 
    The Company also conducted research on the impact of its advertising
campaign. The INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- advertising received the highest
recall score in feminine protection advertising history, according to the
independent testing firm that conducted the research. Furthermore, an additional
independent tracking survey showed that this advertising in combination with the
other INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- marketing programs has resulted in brand
awareness of 62% in the Pacific Northwest, approaching the awareness levels of
key competitors who have been in the marketplace for over twenty-five (25)
years.
 
    In addition to INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- launch activities, research and
development activities on new products continued. The BufferGel Technology
("BufferGel") developed by the Company's research and development partner,
ReProtect, LLC, was selected by HIVNET for funding of Phase I clinical trials to
test its safety in humans for use as an agent for the prevention of AIDS and
other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The Phase I clinical trials began in
December 1996 in Providence, Rhode Island. The first patent for the BufferGel
Technology for a vaginal device for controlling pH by acidic buffering was
received on January 14, 1997 by Ultrafem's research and development partner.

NINE MONTHS 1997 VS. NINE MONTHS 1996 AND THREE MONTHS 1997 VS. THREE MONTHS
  1996
 
    NET SALES
 
    Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 were $1,572,007 resulting
from the shipment of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-. The Company was a
development stage company for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and generated
no sales.
 
    Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were $917,177. The
Company attributes this increase to the shipment of
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-.
 
    COST OF SALES (EXCLUSIVE OF DEPRECIATION)
 
    Cost of sales during the nine months ended March 31, 1997 was $1,623,472.
The Company was a development stage company during the nine months ended March
31, 1996 and incurred no cost of sales. The cost of sales for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 was attributable to start-up and manufacturing costs
associated with the production of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- to support
related sales. For the nine months ended March 31, 1997, the Company has not
reached a level of production adequate to absorb the Company's manufacturing
costs on a cost efficient basis.
 
    Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $850,558. The
Company attributes this increase to the reasons set forth in the nine month
analysis. During the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company experienced
less start-up manufacturing costs and reached a level of production adequate to
absorb the Company's manufacturing costs exclusive of depreciation and
amortization.

<PAGE>
    MARKETING, SALES AND DISTRIBUTION
 
    Marketing, sales and distribution expense increased to $14,468,202 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 from $791,367 for the nine months ended March
31, 1996. This increase was principally attributable to expenses incurred in
connection with the launch of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- during the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 for marketing and advertising for television, print,
sampling and coupon mailings to generate consumer trial and awareness of
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- and to a lesser extent market research and
administration of the various marketing and sales programs.
 
    Marketing, sales and distribution expense increased to $6,649,490 during the
three months ended March 31, 1997 from $130,730 during the three months ended
March 31, 1996. The Company attributes this increase primarily to those reasons
set forth above.
 
    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
    Research and development expense increased to $1,849,519 for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 from $449,555 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. The
increase was primarily attributable to payments to ReProtect under the terms of
the Company's research and development agreement and to a lesser extent
administration of the various research and development programs.
 
    Research and development expense increased to $700,533 during the three
months ended March 31, 1997 from $306,488 during the three months ended March
31, 1996. The Company attributes this increase primarily to those reasons set
forth above.
 
    GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
 
    General and administrative expense increased 67.4% to $5,990,814 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 from $3,579,525 for the nine months ended March
31, 1996. This increase was primarily due to salaries attributable to
administration support, non-cash charges resulting from the issuance of warrants
to purchase Common Stock at prices below fair market value in connection with
the settlement of a claim and increases in financial investor relations expense.
This increase was also due, to a lesser extent, to increases in legal fees and
consulting expense. This was offset in part by lower non-cash charges resulting
from issuance in prior years of options to purchase Common Stock at prices below
fair market value to officers and a director of the Company.
 
    General and administrative expense increased 27.0% to $2,253,597 during the
three months ended March 31, 1997 from $1,774,105 during the three months ended
March 31, 1996. The Company attributes this increase primarily to those reasons
set forth above.
 
    DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
 
    Depreciation and amortization increased 31.6% to $770,888 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 from $585,884 for the nine months ended March 31,
1996. This increase was attributable to the increase in the depreciation of
property and equipment offset by a decrease in the amortization of deferred debt
issuance costs.
 
    Depreciation and amortization was $323,894 for the three months ended March
31, 1997 and $380,595 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The 14.9%
decrease is primarily attributable to the write-off of deferred debt issuance
costs during the three months ended March 31, 1996 in connection with the
repayment of debt by the Company.
 
    INTEREST EXPENSE
 
    Interest expense associated with the Company's debt was $314,872 and
$569,478 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. For the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 interest expense was offset by
 
                                       9
<PAGE>
$314,872 resulting from capitalized interest for construction in progress. The
decrease in interest expense associated with the Company's debt for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1996 was
attributable to the repayment of debt by the Company and the conversion of
convertible debt to Common Stock.
 
    Interest expense associated with the Company's debt was $100,079 and
$186,989 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. For
the three months ended March 31, 1997 interest expense was offset by $314,872
resulting from capitalized interest for construction in progress. The net
decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared
to the three months ended March 31, 1996 was attributable to the reasons set
forth above.
 
    INTEREST INCOME
 
    Interest income was $1,222,162 and $131,293 for the nine months ended March
31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The increase for the nine months ended March
31, 1997 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1996 was attributable to
the money received by the Company during February 1996 from its Initial Public
Offering ("IPO") and during November 1996 from its second offering which was
invested in cash equivalents during the nine months ended March 31, 1997.
 
    Interest income was $538,721 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
$121,832 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The increase for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1996
was attributable to the reasons set forth above.
 
    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    At March 31, 1997, the Company had $33,334,439 in cash and cash equivalents.
From June 30, 1996 to March 31, 1997, the Company's cash position increased by
$8,824,368, principally reflecting $35,924,421 in net proceeds from the sale of
2,000,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock through a second public offering;
$747,705 in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants offset by
$20,226,621 used in operating activities, $7,299,916 used for the purchase of
property and equipment, and $321,221 for the repayment of debt.
 
    The Company's working capital and capital requirements will depend on
numerous factors, including the progress of the staged market introduction of
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-, the Company's research and development
activities, the level of resources that the Company devotes to the clinical,
patent, regulatory and marketing aspects of its products and the extent to which
strategic alliances with multi-national pharmaceutical or consumer product
companies are formed. At March 31, 1997, the Company had commitments in the
amount of approximately $7,997,000, of which $2,885,000 was unpaid, principally
for the purchase of manufacturing equipment and improvements to the
manufacturing facility to support increased levels of production. Included in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities at March 31, 1997 was approximately
$749,000 of these unpaid commitments. In addition, in February 1996 the Company
and ReProtect entered into a License, Research and Product Development Agreement
under which the Company is obligated to pay ReProtect a minimum of $1 million
per year for research and development. In addition, the Company will also
continue to incur additional expenses for research and development, prototype
manufacturing, laboratory and human clinical studies, regulatory and patent as
well as market research.
 
    The Company's stockholders' equity increased by approximately $15,407,000
from June 30, 1996 to March 31, 1997 reflecting net proceeds of approximately
$35,924,000 from the sale of 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock
through a second public offering, proceeds from the exercise of stock options
and warrants, issuance of below market value stock warrants in connection with
the settlement of a claim and conversion of convertible debt into Common Stock
of approximately $1,407,000 offset by a net loss for the nine months ended March
31, 1997 of approximately $21,924,000.
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
    Subsequent to March 31, 1997, all remaining holders of the convertible notes
due April 1997 in the amount of $2,725,000 have converted their notes into
545,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
 
    The Company believes that the financial resources available to it is an
important factor in its ability to achieve the marketing and distribution of
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- and its ability to develop and eventually bring
medical products to market. The Company's need for funds has increased from
period to period as it has incurred expenses for, among other things, the
manufacturing, marketing and distribution of INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK-,
research and development activities, engineering and design of fully automated
manufacturing systems, clinical testing, meeting domestic and international
regulatory requirements, applications for domestic and international patent
protection, applications for domestic trademark protection and market research.
The Company may require additional financing in the future to meet these needs
and if unforeseen risks are encountered. If the Company is unable to raise
additional capital or arrange satisfactory working capital or additional equity
financing the Company may be unable to complete the distribution of
INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- into the full United States market. Additional
financing may require the issuance of new equity securities, and there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to obtain working capital or additional
financing at a favorable rate, if at all.
 
    This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements involve risks
and uncertainties that may cause the Company's actual results to differ
materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors
that might cause such differences include the following: dependence on the
Company's single product; the need for additional financing to successfully
market and distribute INSTEAD-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- as well as for unforeseen
risks; the changing priorities of customers as well as other marketing risks;
the Company's lack of manufacturing experience; the uncertainty of consumer
acceptance; the necessity of regulatory clearances to market its products;
potential product liability; risks associated with the Company's proprietary
technology; risks associated with the research and development for other
applications of the Softcup-Registered Trademark- Technology; and risks
associated with a competitive response to the Company's product. The Company
urges readers to carefully review the risks and factors discussed more
completely under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's Prospectus dated
November 13, 1996.
