1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction
         with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
         Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
         1999. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of
         normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial
         position, results of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows at
         September 30, 2000 and for all periods presented have been made.
         Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
         financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The results of
         operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
         1999 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the
         full years.

         The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sheffield
         Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Systemic
         Pulmonary Delivery, Ltd., Ion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and CP
         Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and its 80.1% owned subsidiary, Respiratory
         Steroid Delivery, Ltd., and are herein referred to as "Sheffield" or
         the "Company." All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated
         in consolidation.

         The Company is focused on the development and commercialization of
         later stage, lower risk pharmaceutical products that utilize the
         Company's unique proprietary pulmonary delivery technologies. The
         Company is in the development stage and to date has been principally
         engaged in research, development and licensing efforts. The Company has
         generated minimal operating revenue, sustained significant net
         operating losses, and requires additional capital that the Company
         intends to obtain through out-licensing as well as through equity and
         debt offerings to continue to operate its business. Even if the Company
         is able to successfully develop new products, there can be no assurance
         that the Company will generate sufficient revenues from the sale or
         licensing of such products to be profitable.


2.       BASIC LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

         Basic net loss per share is calculated in accordance with Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic net
         loss per share is based upon the weighted average common stock
         outstanding during each period. Potentially dilutive securities such as
         stock options, warrants, convertible debt and preferred stock, have not
         been included in any periods presented as their effect is antidilutive.


3.       RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements and notes have
         been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Item 2.

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

The following contains certain 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, which are intended to be covered by
the safe harbors created thereby. All forward-looking statements involve risks
and uncertainty. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying
the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the
assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, there can be no assurance that
the forward-looking statements included in this report will prove to be
accurate. The Company's actual results may differ materially from the results
anticipated in the forward-looking statements. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Important Factors
that May Affect Future Results" included herein for a discussion of factors that
could contribute to such material differences. In light of the significant
uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the
inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the
Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be
achieved.

OVERVIEW

The Company is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on development and
commercialization of later stage, lower risk pharmaceutical products that
utilize the Company's unique proprietary pulmonary delivery technologies. The
Company is in the development stage and, as such, has been principally engaged
in the development of its pulmonary delivery systems. The Company and its
development partners currently have nine products in various stages of
development.

In 1997, the Company acquired the Metered Solution Inhaler ("MSI"), a portable
nebulizer-based pulmonary delivery system, through a worldwide exclusive license
and supply arrangement with Siemens AG ("Siemens"). During the second half of
1998, the Company acquired the rights to an additional pulmonary delivery
technology, the Aerosol Drug Delivery System ("ADDS") from a subsidiary of
Aeroquip-Vickers, Inc. ("Aeroquip-Vickers"). The ADDS technology is a new
generation propellant-based pulmonary delivery system. Additionally, during
1998, Sheffield licensed from Elan Corporation, plc ("Elan"), the Ultrasonic
Pulmonary Drug Absorption System ("UPDAS"), a novel disposable unit dose
nebulizer system, and Elan's Absorption Enhancing Technology, ("Enhancing
Technology") a therapeutic agent to increase the systemic absorption of drugs.
In October 1999, the Company licensed Elan's Nanocrystal(TM) technology to be
used in developing certain inhaled steroid products.

Using the above pulmonary delivery systems and technologies as platforms, the
Company has established strategic alliances for developing its initial products
with Elan, Siemens and Zambon Group SpA ("Zambon").

In a collaboration with Zambon, the Company is developing a range of
pharmaceutical products delivered by the MSI to treat respiratory diseases.
Under its agreement with Zambon, MSI commercial rights for respiratory products
have been sublicensed to Zambon in return for an equity investment in the
Company (approximately 10%). Zambon has committed to fund the development costs
for respiratory compounds delivered by the MSI, as well as make certain
milestone payments and pay royalties on net sales to the Company resulting from
these MSI products. Initial products for respiratory disease therapy delivered
through the MSI include albuterol, ipratropium, cromolyn and inhaled steroids.
The Company has maintained co-marketing rights for the U.S. The Company's
ability to co-market MSI respiratory products in the U.S. requires no
additional payment to Zambon by the Company. Zambon and the Company are having
discussions regarding the possible modification of their agreement, including
the future marketing arrangements for the MSI respiratory products in the
United States.

As part of a strategic alliance with Elan, the Company is developing therapies
for non-respiratory diseases to be delivered to the lungs using both the ADDS
and MSI. In 1998, the systemic applications of the MSI and ADDS were licensed to
Systemic Pulmonary Delivery, Ltd. ("SPD"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company. In addition, two Elan technologies, UPDAS(TM) and the Enhancing
Technology, were also licensed to SPD. The Company retained exclusive rights
outside of the strategic alliance to respiratory disease applications utilizing
the ADDS technology and the two Elan technologies. Two systemic compounds for
pulmonary delivery are currently under development. For the treatment of
breakthrough pain, the Company is developing morphine delivered through the MSI.
Ergotamine, a therapy for the treatment of migraine headaches, is currently
being developed for use in the ADDS.

In addition to the above alliance with Elan, in 1999, the Company and Elan
formed a joint venture, Respiratory Steroid Delivery, Ltd. ("RSD"), to develop
certain inhaled steroid products to treat respiratory diseases using Elan's
NanoCrystal technology. The inhaled steroid products to be developed include a
propellant-based steroid formulation for delivery through the ADDS, a
solution-based unit-dose-packaged steroid formulation for delivery using a
conventional tabletop nebulizer, and a solution-based steroid formulation for
delivery using the MSI system, subject to further agreement with Zambon.

Outside of these alliances, the Company owns the worldwide rights to respiratory
disease applications of all of its technologies, subject only to the MSI
respiratory rights sublicensed to Zambon.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue

Contract research revenues primarily represent revenue earned from a
collaborative research agreement with Zambon relating to the development of
respiratory applications of the MSI. Contract research revenue for the third
quarter of 2000 and 1999 were $46,109 and $135,740, respectively. For the first
nine months of 2000 and 1999, contract research revenues were $291,784 and
$229,449, respectively. The decrease of $89,631 for the third quarter of 2000
primarily reflects certain nonrecurring MSI device development work and testing
completed by the Company during the third quarter of 1999, partially offset by
three additional respiratory programs in development in 2000 as compared to
1999. The increase for the first nine months of 2000 is primarily due to the
research performed by the Company on the three additional respiratory programs,
partially offset by the nonrecurring development work completed in the third
quarter of 1999 as previously discussed. Costs of contract research revenue
approximate such revenue and are included in research and development expenses.
Future contract research revenues and expenses are anticipated to fluctuate
depending, in part, upon the success of current clinical studies, and obtaining
additional collaborative agreements.

The Company's ability to generate material revenues is contingent on the
successful commercialization of its technologies and other technologies and
products that it may acquire, followed by the successful marketing and
commercialization of such technologies through licenses, joint ventures and
other arrangements.

Research and Development

Research and development ("R&D") expenses were $892,411 and $1,055,458 for the
third quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, R&D costs were $2,677,189 and $2,640,121,
respectively. The decrease of $163,047 in the third quarter of 2000 was
primarily due to lower development costs on the Company's two systemic programs,
and costs associated with decreased contract research revenue as discussed
above, partially offset by higher expenses related to the development by RSD of
three steroid products initiated during the fourth quarter of 1999, and
formulation work begun during 2000 on an undisclosed respiratory product to be
delivered via the ADDS. The slight increase for the first nine months of 2000 of
$37,068 primarily reflects costs associated with modifications being made to the
MSI to enhance its commercial appeal prior to the start of Phase III
MSI-albuterol clinical trials. In addition, the increase for the nine month
period reflects higher costs associated with the above-mentioned steroid
programs and higher contract research costs, partially offset by lower
development costs on the Company's two systemic programs and lower engineering
costs related to the ADDS device.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were $521,060 and $498,734 for the quarters
ended September 30, 2000, and 1999, respectively, and $1,907,205 and $1,631,090
for the first nine months of 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase for both
the third quarter and the first nine months of 2000 was primarily due to higher
consulting costs and legal fees associated with expanded business development
activity.

Interest

Interest income was $21,193 and $6,696 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively, and $115,685 and $46,049 for the first nine months of
2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in interest income for both the third
quarter and first nine months of 2000 was primarily due to larger balances of
cash available for investment and higher average yields on those investments.

Interest expense was $57,267 and $43,186 for the third quarter of 2000, and
1999, respectively, and $164,424 and $108,895 for the first nine months of 2000
and 1999, respectively. The increase in both the third quarter and first nine
months of 2000 resulted from higher outstanding balances on the Company's
convertible promissory note with Elan, as well as a higher average interest rate
on the note.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 2000, the Company had $1,644,434 in cash and cash equivalents
compared to $3,874,437 at December 31, 1999. The decrease of $2,230,003
primarily reflects $4,603,454 of cash disbursements used primarily to fund
operating activities and $313,189 to repurchase and retire 91,043 shares of the
Company's common stock, partially offset by $1,584,325 in net proceeds from the
exercise of common stock options and warrants and $1,000,000 from the issuance
of 1,000 shares of the Company's Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
("Series E Preferred Stock").

During the first nine months of 2000, the Company sold 75,000 shares of its
investment in Lorus Therapeutics, Inc. ("Lorus") for proceeds of $164,656,
resulting in a gain of $119,645. At September 30, 2000, the value of the
Company's remaining Lorus investment of 508,188 shares was $921,091.

In October 1999, as part of a licensing agreement with Elan, the Company
received gross proceeds of $17,000,000 related to the issuance to Elan of 12,015
shares of Series D Cumulative Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock and 5,000
shares of Series F Convertible Non-Exchangeable Preferred Stock. In turn, the
Company made an equity investment of $12,015,000 in a joint venture, RSD,
representing an initial 80.1% ownership. The remaining proceeds from the
above-mentioned preferred stock issuance are being utilized for general
operating purposes. As part of the agreement, Elan also committed to purchase,
on a drawdown basis, up to an additional $4,000,000 of the Company's Series E
Preferred Stock. The proceeds from the Series E Preferred Stock will be utilized
by the Company to fund its portion of RSD's operating and development costs. As
of September 30, 2000, $1,000,000 of Series E Preferred Stock has been purchased
by Elan.

In May 1999, in conjunction with the completion of its Phase I/II MSI-albuterol
trial, Zambon provided the Company with a $1,000,000 interest-free advance
against future milestone payments. Upon the attainment of certain future
milestones, the Company will recognize this advance as revenue. If the Company
does not achieve these future milestones, the advance must be repaid in
quarterly installments of $250,000 commencing January 1, 2002. The Company's use
of the proceeds from this advance are not restricted. Upon the achievement of
certain other technical milestones, Zambon will provide an additional $1,000,000
advance under the terms of the agreement.

Since its inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through
the sale of securities and convertible debentures, from which it has raised an
aggregate of approximately $73.3 million through September 30, 2000, of which
approximately $30.0 million has been spent to acquire certain in-process
research and development technologies, and $27.7 million has been incurred to
fund certain ongoing technology research projects. The Company expects to incur
additional costs in the future, including costs relating to its ongoing research
and development activities, and preclinical and clinical testing of its product
candidates. The Company may also bear considerable costs in connection with
filing, prosecuting, defending and/or enforcing its patent and other
intellectual property claims. Therefore, the Company will need substantial
additional capital before it will recognize significant cash flow from
operations, which is contingent on the successful commercialization of the
Company's technologies. There can be no assurance that any of the technologies
to which the Company currently has or may acquire rights can or will be
commercialized or that any revenues generated from such commercialization will
be sufficient to fund existing and future research and development activities.

Because the Company does not expect to generate significant cash flows from
operations for at least the next few years, the Company believes it will require
additional funds to meet future costs. The Company will attempt to meet its
capital requirements with existing cash balances and through additional public
or private offerings of its securities, debt financing, and collaboration and
licensing arrangements with other companies. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to obtain such additional funds or enter into such
collaborative and licensing arrangements on terms favorable to the Company, if
at all. The Company's development programs may be curtailed if future financings
are not completed.

IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

The following are some of the factors that could affect the Company's future
results. They should be considered in connection with evaluating forward-looking
statements contained in this report and otherwise made by the Company or on the
Company's behalf, because these factors could cause actual results and
conditions to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking
statements.

The Company's future results are subject to risks and uncertainties including,
but not limited to, the risks that (1) the Company may not be able to obtain
additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, to continue to fund its
operations, and may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one
or more of its research and development programs, or obtain funds through
arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require the Company
to relinquish rights to certain of its technologies,

product candidates or products that the Company would otherwise seek to develop;
(2) the Company's product opportunities may not be successfully developed,
proven to be safe and efficacious in clinical trials, may not meet applicable
regulatory standards, may not receive the required regulatory approvals, or may
not be produced in commercial quantities at reasonable costs or be successfully
commercialized and marketed; (3) the Company may default in payments required
under certain licensing agreements, thereby potentially forfeiting its rights
under those agreements; (4) due to rapid technological change and innovation,
the Company may not have a competitive advantage in its fields of technology or
in any of the fields in which the Company may concentrate its efforts; (5)
government regulation may prevent or delay regulatory approval of the Company's
products; (6) the Company may not develop or receive sublicenses or other rights
related to proprietary technology that are patentable, one or more of the
Company's pending patents may not issue, or that any issued patents may not
provide the Company with any competitive advantages, or that the patents may be
challenged by third parties; (7) the Company may not have the resources
available to build or otherwise acquire its own marketing capabilities, or that
agreements with other pharmaceutical companies to market the Company's products
may not be reached on terms acceptable to the Company; (8) manufacturing and
supply agreements entered into by the Company will not be adequate or that the
Company will not be able to enter into future manufacturing and supply
agreements on acceptable terms; (9) private health insurance and government
health program reimbursement price levels may not be sufficient to provide a
return to the Company on its investment in new products and technologies; (10)
the Company may not be able to maintain or obtain product liability insurance
for any future clinical trials; (11) the failure to meet the American Stock
Exchange's ("AMEX") listing guidelines may result in the Common Stock of the
Company no longer being eligible for listing on the AMEX, which would make it
more difficult for investors to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as
to the market value of the Company's Common Stock; (12) announcements of
developments in the medical field generally, or in the Company's research areas
or by the Company's competitors specifically, may result in having a materially
adverse effect on the market price of, the Company's Common Stock; (13) the
exercise of options and outstanding warrants, the conversion of the Company's
currently outstanding convertible securities, or conversion of convertible
securities issuable in the future may significantly dilute the market price of
shares of the Company's Common Stock, and could impair the Company's ability to
raise capital through the future sale of its equity securities.

Readers are also directed to other risks and uncertainties discussed, as well as
to further discussion of the risks described above, in other documents filed by
the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company
specifically disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
information, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or
otherwise.
