Antex Biologics Inc.
(a development stage enterprise)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1999
(UNAUDITED)
1. GENERAL
Antex Biologics Inc. (the "Company") is a biopharmaceutical company
committed to improving human health by developing new products to prevent and
treat infections and related diseases. With respect to its human bacterial
vaccine research and development, the Company currently has a strategic alliance
with SmithKline Beecham and technology license agreements with Pasteur Merieux
Connaught and the United States Navy.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1999, the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three-month and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 and for the period August 3, 1991 (inception)
to September 30, 1999, the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders' Equity
(Deficit) for the nine months ended September 30, 1999, and the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 and
1999 and for the period August 3, 1991 (inception) to September 30, 1999 have
been prepared without audit. However, such financial statements reflect all
adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated
financial position of Antex Biologics Inc. and its subsidiary at September 30,
1999, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
the periods referred to above.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB.
Certain reclassifications were made to the 1998 financial statements to
conform to the 1999 presentation.
The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 1999 are
not necessarily indicative of the operating results anticipated for the fiscal
year ending December 31, 1999.
Since inception, the Company's revenues have been generated solely in
support of its research and development activities and as of September 30, 1999,
the Company's research and products are not sufficiently developed to enable the
Company to generate sufficient revenues on an ongoing basis. As a result, the
Company is considered to be in the development stage.
The report of the Company's independent accountants on the Company's
1998 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph indicating that
there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern.

2. STRATEGIC ALLIANCE
Effective March 1996, the Company entered into definitive agreements
with SmithKline Beecham Corporation and SmithKline Beecham Biologicals
Manufacturing s.a. ("SmithKline") which established a corporate joint venture,
MicroCarb Human Vaccines Inc. ("MCHV"), to develop and commercialize human
bacterial vaccines utilizing the Company's proprietary technologies. At August
31, 1999, the agreements provided for the following: the option by SmithKline to
provide annual funding of research and development activities for future years;
an exchange option granted by the Company to SmithKline enabling SmithKline to
convert its 26.25% equity interest in MCHV for 3,595,264 shares of the Company's
common stock, under specified conditions; and a warrant granted by the Company
to SmithKline enabling SmithKline to acquire up to 5,730,802 shares of the
Company's common stock, under specified conditions. The agreements also provided
for SmithKline to make milestone payments and pay royalties to MCHV; and for
SmithKline to reimburse the Company for expenses the Company incurred for agreed
upon production lots of vaccines for clinical trials, the conduct of agreed upon
clinical trials, and agreed upon prosecution and maintenance of the Company's
patents and patent applications. As further stipulated in the agreements,
SmithKline was responsible for conducting additional clinical trials,
manufacturing, and sales and distribution.
Effective September 1, 1999, the agreements were terminated and/or
amended and the Company entered into an Omnibus Agreement with SmithKline
Beecham plc and SmithKline Beecham Biologicals Manufacturing s.a. ("SB") and
MCHV. Under the provisions of the Omnibus Agreement and several related
documents the following occurred: SmithKline's equity interest in MCHV was
converted into 3,595,264 shares of the Company's common stock and MCHV was
merged into the Company; a new license agreement was executed; and the Company
granted an amended and restated warrant to SB to purchase 3,865,769 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $.37 per share exercisable on or before
September 1, 2003.
The new license agreement covers prophylactic and/or therapeutic
vaccines for only certain designated infectious diseases and provides for the
reversion to the Company of all other technology rights previously licensed to
SmithKline. The terms of the license agreement provide for the following:
funding for research and development of $1,333,334 for the period July 1, 1999
to December 31, 1999 with SB having the option to provide annual funding of
research and development activities in the future; milestone payments and
royalties; and reimbursement by SB of expenses incurred by the Company for
agreed upon production lots of vaccines, the conduct of agreed upon clinical
trials, and the agreed upon prosecution and maintenance of the Company's patents
and patent applications pertaining to the licensed technology. As further
stipulated in the agreement, SB will be responsible for conducting clinical
trials, manufacturing, and sales and distribution.
The Company recognized revenue related to human bacterial vaccine
research and development and qualifying reimbursable expenses pursuant to these
agreements of $842,975 and $547,419 for the three-month periods ended September
30, 1998 and 1999, and of $2,929,692, $2,201,207 and $12,042,973 for the
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1999 and for the period August
3, 1991 (inception) to September 30, 1999, respectively.

3. REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
On June 10, 1999, the stockholders approved resolutions authorizing the Board of
Directors, at its discretion, to effect by amendment of the Certificate of
Incorporation, prior to the next Shareholders Meeting, a reverse stock split in
the range of one-for-four to one-for-ten. To date, no reverse stock split has
been effected.
4. OPERATING SEGMENTS
In 1998, the Company established a second reportable product segment,
therapeutics. The therapeutics segment focuses on research and development of
drugs for infectious diseases and related disorders. Only direct costs and fixed
asset acquisitions were attributed to the therapeutics segment in 1998.
The following tables present information regarding the two segments for
the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1999.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss)
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by
dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding after giving effect to all dilutive
potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. The Company did
not have any dilutive potential common shares during the periods ended September
30, 1998 and 1999. Net loss as reported is applicable to common shareholders and
was not adjusted for the computation of basic or diluted earnings per share.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The Company commenced operations in August 1991.
Effective March 1996, the Company executed definitive agreements with
SmithKline Beecham which established MCHV to develop and commercialize human
bacterial vaccines utilizing the Company's
13
<PAGE> 14
proprietary technologies. Effective September 1, 1999, these agreements were
terminated and/or amended and new definitive agreements were entered into to
develop and commercialize selected human bacterial vaccines. (See Note 2 to the
unaudited financial statements).
The strategic alliance with SmithKline Beecham is consistent with one
aspect of the Company's overall strategy which, since its inception, has been to
establish strategic partnerships and to focus on researching technologies with
the goal of developing new products to prevent and treat infections and related
diseases. The Company is operating as a development stage enterprise.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues for the third quarter of 1999 totaled $597,419 and consisted of
the recognition of human bacterial vaccine research and development support of
$488,113 and reimbursable expenses incurred of $59,306 pursuant to the strategic
alliance with SmithKline Beecham and a $50,000 material transfer fee. Revenues
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 totaled $2,251,207 and consisted of
the recognition of human bacterial vaccine research and development support of
$1,675,350 and reimbursable expenses incurred of $525,857 pursuant to the
SmithKline Beecham strategic alliance and the $50,000 material transfer fee.
Revenues for the third quarter of 1998 totaled $842,975 and include the
recognition of human bacterial vaccine research and development support of
$781,795 and reimbursable expenses incurred of $61,180 pursuant to the strategic
alliance with SmithKline. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
totaled $3,088,724 and consisted of $2,369,436 of human bacterial vaccine
research and development support and reimbursable expenses incurred of $560,256
in connection with the strategic alliance, and $159,032 from a Small Business
Innovation Research grant.
The decreases in human bacterial vaccine research and development
revenues are due to a reduction in the services requested by SmithKline Beecham.
Research and development expenses decreased $210,847, or 18.3%, to
$941,668 for the third quarter of 1999 in comparison to $1,152,515 for the
comparable period in 1998, and decreased $272,956, or 8.1%, to $3,085,117 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 in comparison to $3,358,073 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998. The decreases were due primarily to the
nonrecurrence of the $250,000 buy-back in the third quarter of 1998 of
therapeutic technology previously licensed.
General and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 1999
increased 16.3% to $342,840 in comparison to $294,916 in the comparable period
in 1998, and increased 34.5% to $1,257,235 for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 in comparison to $934,787 for the comparable period in 1998. The
increases are attributable primarily to increased fees incurred in 1999 in
connection with overseas patent application filings, such fees being
reimbursable to the Company pursuant to the provisions of the strategic alliance
with SmithKline, and to increased general legal fees.
The decrease in interest income in the third quarter and first nine
months of 1999 reflects the decrease in cash available for investing.
The noncash expense of $1,711,814 arising from the cashless exercise of
the Placement Agent's unit purchase option in September 1998 was a nonrecurring
event.
14
<PAGE> 15
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As a development stage company, the Company's operating activities have
been limited primarily to research and development involving its proprietary
technologies, and accordingly, have generated limited revenues. The Company was
scheduled to receive and has received $2,000,000 in research and development
payments from SmithKline Beecham covering the period March 1, 1999 to December
31, 1999, of which $666,666 was received in October 1999. Additionally, the
costs incurred by the Company associated with a completed Phase I clinical trial
for Helicobacter pylori and the prosecution of the Company's applicable patents
and patent applications are being reimbursed by SmithKline Beecham.
During the remainder of 1999, the Company will continue to assess to
which human bacterial vaccine research projects resources will be allocated. The
Company anticipates that its research and development expenses related to human
bacterial vaccines will continue to be substantial for the foreseeable future.
Although the Company anticipates continued funding will be provided by
SmithKline Beecham in 2000 and beyond, it is expected that funding for 2000 will
be at a substantially reduced level from that received in 1999. The Company
intends to utilize a portion of its available resources in pursuing these
vaccine activities and research and development activities in therapeutics. To
fund these research and development activities and general and administrative
expenses, the Company will be required to rely on its current assets and future
financings.
For 1999, the Company currently anticipates that it will maintain its
total employees and contract personnel at approximately the 1998 year end total
of 30.
In December 1998, the Company concluded negotiations for an extension of
its facility lease and an expansion of its existing space. Estimated
construction costs and equipment acquisitions related to the planned renovation
and expansion of the Company's facility total approximately $2.6 million.
Anticipated financing from the landlord is expected to fund approximately $1.6
million of this estimate. The Company has expended approximately $600,000 of its
own resources on this project as of October 31, 1999, and is currently in
discussions with various lenders to secure debt financing for the balance. To
the extent that the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining the additional
financing required, the resulting shortfall will necessitate utilizing the
Company's current assets and/or curtailing the Company's planned facility
renovation and expansion.
In order to sustain its research and development programs beyond the
first quarter of 2000, as well as to fund its future operations, the Company
will continue to seek additional financing. The Company has no lines of credit.
In seeking additional funding, the Company continues to examine a range of
possible transactions, including: additional strategic alliances; additional
equity or debt public offerings and private placements; the sale and leaseback
of existing assets; and additional grants and contracts. To that end, the
Company has retained the services of an investment banker to undertake a private
offering of common stock of the Company. However, there is no assurance that
additional funds will be available from these or any other sources or, if
available, that the terms on which such funds can be obtained will be acceptable
to the Company.
If the Company is unsuccessful in its efforts to obtain sufficient
financing to continue to fund its current operations, the Company will be
required to reduce its level of operations. The Company also
15
<PAGE> 16
may seek to enter into a business combination transaction that would involve the
merger or sale of the Company in an effort to preserve shareholder value.
The report of the independent accountants on the Company's financial
statements contains an explanatory paragraph indicating that there is
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued a new standard.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which becomes effective for
periods beginning after June 15, 2000, requires that every derivative instrument
be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its
fair value. The statement requires that changes in the derivative's fair value
be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. The
Company believes that the effect of adoption of SFAS 133 will not be material to
the Company's financial statements.
YEAR 2000 DISCLOSURE
The Company has initiated its Year 2000 compliance program, the purpose
of which is to identify those systems that are not yet Year 2000 compliant, and
to initiate replacement or other remedial action to assure that systems will
continue to operate in the Year 2000. The Company expects to complete its
assessment by November 30, 1999, which includes third party confirmations from
the Company's key suppliers, vendors and business partners, with respect to
their computers, software and systems, and their ability to maintain normal
operations in the Year 2000. To the extent that the Company is not satisfied
with the status of a vendor's Year 2000 compliance or remediation plans, the
Company expects to develop and implement appropriate contingency plans. Such
contingency plans will include the development of alternative sources for the
product or service provided by any non-compliant vendor.
The Company has removed and exchanged some non-compliant systems and
expects to continue such replacement or other remedial action to ensure that its
computers, software and systems, and other systems will continue to operate in
the Year 2000. These activities are intended to encompass all major categories
of systems used by the Company, including laboratory instrumentation, building
systems, and financial systems, among others. In some instances, the
installation of new software and hardware in the normal course of business is
being accelerated to also afford a solution to Year 2000 issues. Year 2000
spending is expected to total less than $40,000, of which the Company has
incurred approximately $30,000. The total cost estimate is based on the
Company's assessment as of October 31, 1999 and is subject to change as the
compliance program progresses.
The capital improvements and expenses required for the Year 2000 effort
have been included as part of the Company's annual budget. The Company does not
expect that the capital spending or period expense associated with the Year 2000
issues will have a material effect on its financial position or results of
operations. The Company's policy is to expense all costs related to its Year
2000 compliance program unless the useful life of the technological asset is
extended or increased. It is expected that assessment, remediation and
contingency planning will be ongoing throughout fiscal 1999 with the goals of
appropriately resolving all material internal systems and third party issues.
There can be no assurances,
16
<PAGE> 17
however, that the Company's computer systems and the applications of other
companies on which the Company's operations rely will be timely converted or
that any such failure to convert by another company will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operations.
